I've been meaning to check out the food trucks by the Red Hook Ball Fields for the past 2 years or so. Finally got the chance this past weekend. I wish I had a bigger stomach so I could try more stuff because all I had was the mixed ceviche and spicy pork huarache. But the 2 things I tried was pretty good.
Spicy Pork Huarache So this pic doesn't highlight the best part of this dish which is the meat hiding under all that guac and salsa. I know, I could have moved it and focused on the bits hanging out on the side. But I was in too much of a hurry to dig in. Plus, my friend was hungry too. We joked about having a support group for People With Friends Who Won't Let Them Eat Until Food Porn Has Been Properly Aquired. There needs to be pics of people on the sidelines with forks in their hands drooling and anxiously waiting when it comes to food porn.
Mixto Ceviche I had my reservations about getting ceviche off a tiny food cart especially on a hot summer day (there was a heat advisory the day I went) but it was pretty good. In fact, it's better than some ceviche I've had in restaurants.
The only con about getting food at the Red Hook Ball Fields is that there's not much else nearby (unless you want to take a stroll to IKEA or walk further up for the shops on Smith and Court). My friend mentioned the last time she was here, she met some folks who made a trek all the way from Queens via subway just for the food. I don't know, food was good. Just not sure it was THAT good. But you always gotta try it once I guess.
There was one more thing we really wanted to try which was the papusa. But the line for that truck was pretty long and we were already stuffed from the other food we got. Think I will have to make another trip back just for that. Although I heard you might be able to get it at the Brooklyn Flea as well. Anybody tried the papusa? Is it worth the wait in line?

119th Street between Marshfield and Paulina, Calumet Park, IL
www.chicagotribune.com/news/ct-xpm-1996-05-30-9605300026-...
Every day the mails carry tons of requests for donations for one cause or another, some worthy, some questionable.
But recently several hundred Chicagoans received a plea that some might consider, well, kind of odd.
A real estate woman who got one of the letters passed it along and asked: "Can you believe this?"
It was sent by Steven J. Thayer, a 30-year-old lawyer, who says he specializes in helping entrepreneurs raise money to start businesses.
And he began by describing a man named Stan who came to him a couple of years ago with a plan to open a carwash on the border of Chicago and the suburb of Calumet Park.
"Like most of our entrepreneurial clients," Thayer wrote, "Stan was enthusiastic about pursuing his dream. Stan's dream was to build the largest multipurpose carwash facility in the country.
"The carwash would include the longest tunnel wash, an 11 bay self wash, a gas station, an oil and lube shop and a convenience mart.
"At the time, Stan only had sketches of the proposed design of the project. He had spent the last 15 years contemplating the concept and was finally ready to pursue his dream.
"The only problem is that Stan's dream carwash cost over $2.8 million."
Thayer then went on to describe Stan's tireless efforts to raise the money with which to build the biggest multipurpose carwash in the country: his dealings with the Small Business Administration, oil companies, the land owner, banks, friends, relatives and other potential investors.
". . . Numerous hours of passionate labor and tears from Stan, his family and his closest friends."
As Thayer described Stan's gripping quest to build the nation's biggest multipurpose carwash, it sounded almost like something out of "The Right Stuff," the story of our astronauts.
"Stan was just one letter away from closing on a lifelong dream . . ."
Then came this one letter, the one from the Small Business Administration. But it said, nope, there was too much debt and not enough equity.
"On April 22, 1996," Thayer wrote, "with the stroke of a pen, the project died.
"Never in my life have I seen a person work so hard to pursue a dream, overcome so many obstacles, and fail. If I can help it, Stan will not be the first."
Then came the pitch.
"My goal in writing this letter is to appeal to the entrepreneurial spirit inside each of us. The Grandstand Auto Bath is the epitome of the entrepreneurial dream. It's the project that could never happen, the dream that would never come true.
"With your help the dream can come true. Together we can make it happen. My plan is simple, we need to raise enough money to balance out the project. My guess is that we only need a few hundred thousand dollars to balance out the project, although the more the better to cover unforeseen contingencies. I believe a fair amount for a contribution to such an entrepreneurial dream would be about $10 a person, although larger contributions are always welcome.
"The logistics are also very simple. If you would like to make a contribution, send a $10 check to (address). We will turn the money over to Stan as needed to keep the project moving.
"Please keep in mind that some of your contributions will go toward repaying Stan's personal debt that helped keep the project, Stan and his family alive for the past few years.
"Your contributions are not tax deductible and are considered a personal gift to Stan. If we don't raise enough money to complete the project, we will still turn the funds over to Stan to help him get his life reorganized. He certainly deserves it. -- Mike Royko, Chicago Tribune, 5/30/1996
organisiert vom Zentralrat der Juden in Berlin. DIE WELT schreibt:

"Tausende Menschen stehen auf gegen Judenhass"
Von Richard Herzinger,
Korrespondent für Politik
und Gesellschaft
"Wir wollen, dass sich Juden in Deutschland sicher fühlen." Dies war die zentrale Botschaft von Bundeskanzlerin Angela Merkel auf der vom Zentralrat der Juden veranstalteten Kundgebung "Steh auf! Nie wieder Judenhass" in Berlin. Es müsse klar sein, dass jüdisches Leben zu uns gehöre und Deutschland "unsere gemeinsame Heimat ist". Angriffe gegen Juden rüttelten "an den Fundamenten unserer freiheitlichen Gesellschaft"
Was zu anderen Gelegenheiten als Fußball-Fanmeile dient, stand an diesem Sonntag im Zeichen der Solidarität gegen einen sich ausbreitenden Judenhass in Deutschland. Bis zum Beginn der Manifestation hatte sich die Straße des 17. Juni am Brandenburger Tor mit rund 5000 Demonstranten gefüllt. Unzählige Israelfahnen wehten, ein großes Transparent forderte "Frieden – Schalom", andere "Wachsamkeit gegen Antisemitismus".
Vor dem Brandenburger Tor haben Tausende von Demonstranten....
Außer Spruchbändern von jüdischen Gemeinden und der Deutsch-Israelischen Gesellschaft war unter anderem das einer kleinen Kolonie der FDP zu erkennen. Eine Gruppe hielt neben der Israelflagge Fahnen in den Nationalfarben der Ukraine hoch, und sogar eine kleine Abordnung einer "Republik Biafra" bekundete ihre Solidarität mit den Juden und dem jüdischen Staat.
Im abgesperrten VIP-Bereich direkt vor der Rednertribüne gaben sich Repräsentanten eines breiten Querschnitts aus Politik und Gesellschaft in großer Einmütigkeit ein einträchtiges Stelldichein. Die Fraktionsvorsitzenden aller im Bundestag vertretenen Parteien waren ebenso erschienen wie der SPD-Vorsitzende Sigmar Gabriel und Außenminister Frank-Walter Steinmeier, DFB-Präsident Wolfgang Niersbach, Verdi-Chef Frank Bsirske und Ex-Außenminister Joschka Fischer, aber auch Aiman Mayzek, der Vorsitzende des Zentralrats der Muslime. Bemerkenswerterweise war in der ersten Reihe, direkt neben der Bundeskanzlerin, Ex-Bundespräsident Christian Wulff platziert.
"Schlimmsten antisemitischen Parolen seit vielen, vielen Jahrzehnten"
Judenfeindliche Hassparolen und Übergriffe hatten in den vergangenen Monaten die jüdischen Gemeinden in Deutschland zutiefst schockiert und verunsichert. Wie in anderen europäischen Ländern kam es auch hierzulande auf propalästinensischen Demonstrationen gegen die israelische Militäraktion in Gaza zu antisemitischen Ausfällen, die in ihrer Aggressivität das überstiegen, was auf deutschen Straßen bisher schon an judenhasserischer Agitation zu vernehmen war.
So scheuten sich antiisraelische Demonstranten in verschiedenen deutschen Städten nicht, die Parole "Hamas, Hamas, Juden ins Gas" zu skandieren. In der Folge kam es auch zu gewalttätigen Übergriffen gegen jüdische Bürger sowie gegen Synagogen, etwa mit Molotowcocktails. Überdies ist im Internet eine Welle brutalster Hetze gegen Juden zu verzeichnen.
Dieter Graumann, Präsident des Zentralrats der Juden in Deutschland, erklärte dazu, er wolle nicht dramatisieren, aber "das waren wirklich die schlimmsten antisemitischen Parolen seit vielen, vielen Jahrzehnten". Er habe in dieser Situation ausreichend Empathie der deutschen Gesellschaft erwartet. Graumann begrüßte sehr herzlich die Gäste und Redner des Tages, an erster Stelle Bundespräsident Joachim Gauck. Angela Merkel, die Hauptrednerin des Nachmittags, hieß er er als "treue Freundin der jüdischen Gemeinde" willkommen, die mit ihrer Zusage, auf dieser Kundgebung zu sprechen, "nicht eine Sekunde gezögert" habe.
Dass die deutsche Politik und Gesellschaft hier in solcher Geschlossenheit vertreten sei und so viele Teilnehmer gekommen seien, beweise den deutschen Juden: "Wir sind doch nicht allein. Zusammen sind wir viele, und wenn wir alle zusammenstehen, wird uns keine Macht der Welt etwas anhaben können." Er bekräftigte, dass sich die jüdischen Bürger nicht einschüchtern lassen: "Das Judentum in Deutschland hat Zukunft."
Freilich habe er sich schon gefragt, warum wieder die Juden selbst zu einer solchen Manifestation hätten aufrufen mussten, und eine solche Initiative nicht auch einmal von nichtjüdischen Institutionen ausgehen könne. Der EKD-Vorsitzende Nikolaus Schneider, der neben dem Regierenden Bürgermeister Klaus Wowereit, dem Vorsitzenden der Deutschen Bischofskonferenz, Reinhard Marx, und Ronald Lauder, dem Präsidenten des Jüdischen Weltkongresses, das Wort an die Versammlung richtete, reagierte in seiner Ansprache auf diese Mahnung: "Ich habe mir das gut gemerkt."
Schneider erinnerte daran, dass die christlichen Kirchen in ihrer Geschichte zur Entstehung des Antisemitismus beigetragen hätten. Es sei deshalb zu einfach, mit dem Finger nur auf muslimischen Judenhass zu zeigen. Vielmehr gelte es, selbstkritisch auch eigene Überreste der verhängnisvollen antijüdischen Tradition zu hinterfragen. Es gelte nun unmissverständlich auszusprechen: "Antisemitismus ist Sünde gegen den heiligen Geist, ist Gotteslästerung."
"Wir sind Freunde. Für immer"
Kardinal Marx bekräftigte dies, indem er für die Katholische Kirche, den Juden zurief: "Wir sind Freunde. Für immer." Er dankte Lauder dafür, dass sich der Jüdische Weltkongress vehement für die Verteidigung der grausam verfolgten Christen im Nahen Osten einsetze. Schon daher könnten sich die Juden ihrerseits der Solidarität der Christen sicher sein. Marx erinnerte daran, dass wir der Bibel den "revolutionärsten" Gedanken aller Zeiten zu verdanken hätten: dass "alle Menschen gleich und Ebenbilder Gottes sind".
Dafür, dass es uns diese Botschaft, die eine der Grundlagen unserer Zivilisation bilde, überliefert habe, "sind wir dem Volk Israel dankbar". Lauder selbst verwies auf die Anstrengungen, die Deutschland nach dem Ende des Nationalsozialismus zur Überwindung von Judenhass unternommen habe. "Wir werden uns die Früchte von 70 Jahren Zusammenarbeit nicht von einem Haufen Extremisten zerstören lasen", rief er aus. Diese hassten nicht nur die Juden, sondern die ganze demokratische Welt.
Alle Redner betonten, Kritik an der israelischen Regierungspolitik könne niemals Judenfeindschaft und eine Dämonisierung und Delegitimierung des jüdischen Staats rechtfertigen. So rief Wowereit aus: "Deutschland steht ohne Wenn und Aber zum Existenzrecht Israels." Auch waren alle Redner bemüht, klarzustellen, dass sie keineswegs alle Muslime für den islamistischen Judenhass verantwortlich machten und gleichermaßen Angriffe auf Moscheen verurteilten. Dennoch, betonte Graumann, müssten die muslimischen Verbände noch viel mehr tun, um die erschreckende Entwicklung in den eigenen Reihen zu bekämpfen: "Wann, wenn nicht jetzt?"
Striped Skunk (Mephitis mephitis), Estero Bluffs, Cayucos, CA (Jack)
www.ipm.ucdavis.edu/PMG/PESTNOTES/pn74118.html
Two species of skunk are found in California, the spotted skunk (Spilogale gracilis) and the striped skunk (Mephitis mephitis), which is the species most commonly found around homes.
Although originally considered members of the weasel family, recent genetic research has placed skunks into their own family Mephitidae. Both skunk species produce an oily, yellow sulfur-alcohol compound that contains sulfuric acid. This pungent liquid is stored in two separate scent glands located on each side of the anus and can be squirted accurately at targets as far as 6 to 10 feet away as a self-defense mechanism. The secretion is acrid enough to cause nausea and can produce severe burning and temporary blindness if it strikes the eyes.
Striped skunks are primarily active at dawn, dusk, and at night but can be active during the daytime, particularly in human-use areas. Spotted skunks rarely venture out during the daytime. Both skunk species consume a highly-varied diet including insects, grubs, earthworms, small rodents, snakes, lizards, frogs, mushrooms, berries and fruit, pet food, and garbage. Skunks will also opportunistically feed on bird eggs, which can result in substantial losses to ground-nesting birds when skunk densities are high. Food items found in their diet will vary seasonally depending on availability.
The average life span of skunks is around 2 to 3.5 years, although they can occasionally live up to 7 years in the wild.
Skunks often den in burrows. They will often use abandoned burrows dug by ground squirrels, foxes, or coyotes and will enlarge them if necessary. If dens are scarce, they will readily use brush piles, hollow logs, and culverts. In urban settings, they den under decks, porches, or beneath buildings. If other suitable dens are unavailable, skunks will dig their own dens. Skunks do not hibernate; but in regions with colder weather, they may congregate in communal dens during the winter.
Skunks are attracted to residential areas by the availability of food, water, and shelter. They become a nuisance when they live under porches, decks, garden tool sheds, or homes. Their scent is usually not welcome around homes, and they often spray dogs that bark and approach rapidly. They like to feed on ripening berries and fallen fruit and cause other garden problems by digging while in search of grubs and other insects. They often search for food in lawns by digging small pits or cone-shaped depressions that range from 3 to 5 inches across. Like raccoons, they may also damage lawns by rolling back sections of sod in search of insects.
Skunks have an excellent sense of smell and good hearing, but they have very poor vision. This poor vision explains why they are often hit by cars when crossing roads. A skunk may not react if a person more than 10 feet away is quiet and standing still or moving slowly.
Healthy skunks are mild-tempered animals. They are not aggressive and, given the opportunity, prefer to flee rather than fight. They usually only defend themselves when suddenly frightened, cornered, or harmed. Skunks usually provide a warning before discharging their scent by stamping their forefeet rapidly, hissing, and arching their tail over their back. Skunks prefer not to spray given the time required to replenish their spray supply. Therefore, using caution around skunks should substantially reduce the possibility of being sprayed.
Disease concerns occur when skunks take up residence in an urban or suburban setting. In California, skunks are one of the most common carriers of rabies, a viral disease transmitted by the bite of an infected animal. Skunks can also be carriers of other diseases including leptospirosis, listeriosis, canine distemper, canine hepatitis, Q-fever, and tularemia.

The F/A-18E/F Super Hornet is the U.S. Navy’s primary strike and air superiority aircraft. It is an updated version of the F-18C/D, featuring a 20 percent larger airframe, 7,000 lb heavier empty weight, and 15,000 lb heavier maximum weight than the original Hornet. The Super Hornet carries 33 percent more internal fuel, increasing mission range by 41 percent and endurance by 50 percent over the earlier Hornet.
The F/A-18 E/F acquisition program was an unparalleled success. The aircraft emerged from Engineering and Manufacturing Development meeting all of its performance requirements on cost, on schedule and 400 pounds under weight. All of this was verified in Operational Verification testing, the final exam, passing with flying colors receiving the highest possible endorsement.
The first operational cruise of Super Hornet, F/A-18 E, was with VFA-115 onboard the USS Abraham Lincoln (CVN 72) on July 24, 2002, and saw initial combat action on Nov. 6, 2002, when they participated in a strike on hostile targets in the "no-fly" zone in Iraq.
Super Hornet, flew combat sorties from Abraham Lincoln during Southern Watch, demonstrating reliability and an increased range and payload capability. VFA 115 embarked aboard Lincoln expended twice the amount of bombs as other squadrons in their airwing (with 100% accuracy) and met and exceeded all readiness requirements while on deployment. The Super Hornet cost per flight hour is 40% of the F-14 Tomcat and requires 75% less labor hours per flight hour.
The forward fuselage is unchanged from the C/D Hornet, but the remainder of the aircraft shares little with earlier F/A-18C/D models. The fuselage was stretched by 34 inches to make room for fuel and future avionics upgrades and increased the wing area by 25%. However, the Super Hornet has 42% fewer structural parts than the original Hornet design. The General Electric F414 engine, developed from the Hornet's F404, has 35% additional thrust over most of the aircraft's flight envelope. The Super Hornet can return to an aircraft carrier with a larger load of unspent fuel and munitions than the original Hornet.
Other differences include approximately rectangular intakes for the engines and two extra wing hard points for payload (for a total of 11), retaining previous hardpoints on the bottom centerline, wingtips, and two conformal fuselage positions. Among the most significant aerodynamic changes are the enlarged leading edge extensions which provide improved vortex lifting characteristics in high angle of attack maneuvers, and reduce the static stability margin to enhance pitching characteristics. This results in pitch rates in excess of 40 degrees per second, and high resistance to departure from controlled flight.
The F/A-18E/F Super Hornet is an attack aircraft as well as a fighter through selected use of external equipment and advanced networking capabilities to accomplish specific missions. This “force multiplier” capability gives the operational commander more flexibility in employing tactical aircraft in a rapidly changing battle scenario. In its fighter mode, it serves as escort and fleet air defense. In its attack mode, it provides force projection, interdiction, and close and deep air support.

This is a 1958 "Field & Stream" Travel Trailer ( canned ham ). This vintage style of camping trailers were referred to as "car trailers" back when they were being built because of their size, light weight and ease of towing. The cabin part of the trailer is 12' long, the tongue is 2' making the total length only 14'. It pulls beautifully going down the highway, no fish tailing at all. You can forget your pulling a trailer.
This trailer is 95% original, no modifications. This trailer has not been restored and I have only made a couple of small repairs. If you are looking for a great platform for making a complete restoration then this would be an absolutely great trailer for such a project.
The interior is all wood, top to bottom and front to back and it is all original wood. I have installed a self-contained 12 volt electrical system and it doesn't need 120 volt. Everything runs off of 12 volts. However all of the original 120 volt wiring is still in place and hasn't been touched, even the original 120v light fixtures are still in place. All of the cabinet hardware is still in place, working and original. All the hinges, handles, and everything is original. The original "icebox" and oven/stove are still in the camper and work great. It also has the original factory installed "Kenmore" cabin heater and it also works great.
When I got the trailer someone had changed the paint scheme so I re-painted it to the original design. The rear couch makes into a double bed. Above the rear couch it has a removable bunk bed/hammock that is original factory equipment also. The dinette also makes into a double bed. There is a lot of storage in the camper. It also has a 10 gallon fresh water tank with a manual hand pump.
The trailer also comes with 2 30 lb propane tanks, a new spare tire and wheel.
The following items are new in the past three months:
New Interior 12 volt light throughout the camper
New 240 watt solar panel
New "Sunforce" 12v, 30 amp charge controller
4 new "Everstart" 750 cold crank amp deep cell marine batteries
New "Cen-Tech" 1500 watt continuous , 3000 surge 120v power inverter (for microwave, etc.)
New Rival 700 watt microwave
New manual water pump for sink
New Shakespeare SeaWatch 15" Marine TV Antenna (model 3015)
Toshiba 17' Flat Screen TV
All new blinds on the windows
New roof top vent
This is one great little camper. I bought it for hunting plus the nostalgia. It was used this past hunting season and worked great. However with four adult men it was a little cramped. So I plan to up size for next year. I pulled it off road in BLM land in Teller County and down in the Phantom Canyon area and had no problems at all.
Because this trailer is extremely rare there are not many sources of photos to be had but you can follow the link below to another "Field & Stream" trailer. As you can see the interiors are very similar as it is all original like mine: girlcamper.blogspot.com/2015_07_01_archive.html
(Update) You can see a video of the interior of my camper here: youtu.be/NA1VfPU8Sd8
Now the best part last: YES, I DO HAVE A CLEAN CLEAR TITLE IN HAND, AND CURRENT REGISTRATION ALSO. So unlike most trailers you see of this vintage you will not have a problem with registration and it will be registered as a "Field and Stream" not a home-made trailer as is usually the case with trailers bought without a title.
If you have questions please ask. I am asking $5000.00 cash, make offer, no trades. I will sell it to the first person who makes me an agreeable offer with CASH ONLY. I will consider local delivery after the cash transaction.

An easy project I did with my elementary art class...all you need is foil, spray paint, leaves and steel wool. You can read about it here, if you like:
Rainbow Serpent
The following has been sourced from www.barry.warmkessel.com/AUSTR1-3.html
The Rainbow Serpent Shelter is an enormous painting of a Serpent. It has a length of 6.1 metres (20 feet), the longest serpent drawing in Australia. Its big head resembles that of a dragon, with rows of fearsome teeth in the jaws. The distance between the tips of the distended jaws is almost a metre. The spine and rib structure of the beast are carefully indicated. The whole composition is beautifully painted, with fine lines of red ochre on a white background.
The serpent plays an important role in all major religions, but also in the myths of the region. To Aborigines, they are among the most potent and profound of all rock paintings. In its various guises, the Rainbow Serpents of western Arnhem Land originated from the sea. The scholar Mr. G. Chaloupka believes this Serpent is called 'Aburga' painted within the last 1,500 years by the now extinct Amurdak-speaking Malakiri clan.
Authors Roberts and Parker write in their book "Ancient Ochres, the Aboriginal Paintings of Mount Borradaile": "This is a dry, accessible shelter with no signs of habitation, indicating that it was strictly a ceremonial site. There are various habitation shelters in the immediate vicinity. In this particular shelter there is very little art other than the main image, and there have been no images superimposed over any part of it. Clearly, this is testimony to the importance of this painting."

Without doubt the "Catacombs" at Mount Borradaile in Arnhem Land would be the most memorable place that Australia has to offer. Difficult of access, Davidson's Lodge at Mount Borradaile has a lease over 700 sq km of wilderness and is only available to a limited number of visitors.
The "Catacombs" - located nearby - have been formed in Pre-Cambrian sandstone rocks that have essentially lain unchanged for around 600 million years. The sandstone has been eroded by wind and water creating a massive cave system that is peppered with unbelievable Aboriginal art. Evidence suggests that aboriginal people inhabited these areas 40,000 years ago. The artwork appears to been made after the end of the the last ice age - around 10,000 years ago.
Spartacus Blood And Sand series dvd is a Starz television series that premiered on January 22, 2010. Spartacus: Blood and Sand focuses on the historical figure of Spartacus (played by Andy Whitfield), a Thracian gladiator who from 73 to 71 BC led a major slave uprising against the Roman Republic. Executive producers Steven S. DeKnight and Robert Tapert focused on structuring the events of Spartacus' obscure early life leading to the records of history. Spartacus Blood And Sand season dvd has been rated TV-MA for graphic violence, strong sexual content, and coarse language.
4.0-liter Tipo 209 V12 cylinders (330 cc per cylinder)
300 CV @ 6600 rpm
Number of units produced: 50 examples
Production period: 1963
The Ferrari 330 America is a hermaphrodite introduced by Ferrari in 1963 as the successor of the 250.
The 330 America was simply a 250 GT/E with a larger engine, the new 4.0 L Tipo 209 V12, with 300 CV @ 6600 rpm.
"330" refers to the approximate displacement of each single cylinder.
All 330 models used an evolution of the 400 Superamerica's 4.0 L Colombo V12 engine. It was substantially changed for the 330 cars, however, with wider bore spacing and the notable use of a true alternator rather than a dynamo generator.
The 330 GTC/GTS (598/100 examples 1966-1968) shared their chassis with the 275, only the 330 GT 2+2 (1099 examples, 1964-1967) was a truly unique product.
Ferrari 275 und 330 GT 2+2 have their transmission at the rear-axle (transaxle-layout) for better weight distribution.

A text, in english, from www.arthurgrosset.com/sabirds/burnished-bufftanager.html :
Burnished-buff Tanager (Tangara cayana)
Male Burnished-buff Tanager, Parque Olhos D'água Brasília, Brazil, 20/07/2007.
There are several subspecies of Burnished-buff Tanager and they are normally divided into two groups: the cayana group found north of the Amazon and in Venezuela and Colombia, and the flava group found in south and east Brazil.
Male Burnished-buff Tanager.
The main difference between the two groups is that the male of the flava group, as shown in the first two photos, has a broad black line running from the throat down the middle of the belly. This is lacking in the cayana group. The female is much duller and lacks the black below.
Male Burnished-buff Tanager.
They are found in savannas, cerrado, gallery woodland and forest borders.
Em Português:
Este saíra vive aos pares ou em pequenos grupos, freqüentando árvores com frutos maduros, como a aroeira-vermelha (Schinus terebinthifolia) e magnólias (Magnolia spp).
Alimentação: frutos e insetos como cupins e vespas.
Nidificação: o ninho, em forma de taça aberta, é feito com folhas, raízes e capins e envolto por finas raízes. Ele é colocado em ramos com folhas a cerca de 2 m do solo, em árvores baixas e isoladas. Os 2 ovos são esbranquiçados, azul-pálidos ou branco-pardos com manchas pardas num dos pólos. A fêmea, embora auxiliada pelo macho, é a responsável pela maior parte da construção do ninho, incuba os ovos e aquece os filhotes. Durante este período o macho permanece nas proximidades do ninho e alguns podem alimentar a fêmea. O macho auxilia também na alimentação dos filhotes.
Hábitat: matas abertas e ciliares, áreas cultivadas, parques e jardins.
Tamanho: 14,5 cm

It was a shame that I was in the porta-potty during this section of the Bulldada Auction, as I would have definitely bid on this book. It was a book of cults, and it included my grandfather's cult of the Church Universal And Triumphant (aka CUT aka Summit Lighthouse). Elizabeth Clare Prophet (mentioned in the first sentence) is my grandfather's 2nd wife, and kind of stole his holy thunder after he died in 1973. But Rev. Eggplant did let check to see if CUT was in his cult book -- and it was! Reading a book about a cult while hanging out with another cult? Priceless.
Here's how church-goers view him:

Herjólfsbærinn (Herjólfur´s farmhouse), Herjólfsdalur (Herjólfur's valley), Vestmannaeyjar (Westman Islands), Iceland
www.virtualtourist.com/travel/Europe/Iceland/Vestmannaeyj...
The farmhouse in Herjólfsdalur is a prototype of what might have been the oldest human habitation signs in Iceland.
The remains of the farm was discovered in 1924, when the first director of the National Museum was doing excavation work in Herjólfsdalur valley. He discovered 3 ruins; one long-house and two smaller houses. It seems like it was the long-house of Herjólfur Bárðarson, the first settler of Vestmannaeyjar islands. So the old remains might date back to the early 9th century.
An extensive digging took place in Herjólfsdalur from 1971-1983 - being delayed by the volcanic eruption in Heimaey in Vestmannaeyjar islands in 1973. The remains of 8 houses were discovered from 4-5 building periods. The conclusion was that the oldest remains might date back to the 8th or even 7th century. Iceland was considered to be settled around 874, so this is controversial.
In 2006 a farm was built in Herfjólfsdalur in the liking of the farm that stood here in the 10th century. The farm is a long-house and an outhouse, built with rocks and turf.
___________________________________________
Herjólfsdalur is also the site of Þjóðhátíð, an annual Icelandic camping festival:
On the last weekend of July or on the first weekend of August, some 10,000 people flock to the only inhabited Westmann island for a music festival. Scandinavian bands like Sigur Rós take to the stage, but the music is perhaps the least remarkable aspect of the event.
The stage is in the shadow of a volcano, which last erupted in 1973. The chilly climate induces an extreme degree of heart- and hide-warming camaraderie, with singsongs rolling across the site between sets. At night, the festival hotfoots it to the huge bonfire halfway up the volcano.

www.dalurinn.is/en/page/festival-songs
In Iceland, last weekend of July or on the first weekend of August, Icelanders have their annual shopkeeper's holiday, named Verslunarmannahelgi. The most known as well as the biggest one is Þjóðhátíð, located in Westman Islands, an island outside the mainland with the capacity of around 4200 people.
At Þjóðhátið people get together in one purpose; to have fun and enjoy life over the weekend. It is very important that you had some sleep before entering the island since sleep is only possible occasionally as you will be busy attending this 24/7 party over the weekend as well as the camping place is located at the heart of the action.
Although some people look at this festival as a music one, some even say that the music doesn't matter; it's all about the atmosphere. There are three highlights during the weekend, beginning with the unbelievable bonfire at the Friday evening, followed up by an incredible firework exhibition on the Saturday night. Finally, the last but not the least, the Sunday sing-along event with Árni Johnsen, one of Westman island´s famous persons, who gathers people to sit in the hillside and sing along with him as he goes through Icelandic folk songs. As midnight approaches, the atmosphere rises to something indescribable and hits its peak when the valley lightens up in visual highlights, which is an eruption of red torches, representing the island's volcano flames.
One can not describe the festival without mentioning the people of Westman Islands. You would expect the residents to be less than tolerant when the massive invasion begins but the truth is that you will discover people one of their kind. Hospitality such as theirs can not be found anywhere else in the world. As the locals have their own white "house" tents in the middle of the valley, all in white, guests are invited for their so-called private parties inside of them where the residents will welcome you gladly with smoked puffin or homemade brownies swallowed down with something appropriated. Remember not to be afraid to ask for more, they are very lavish.
Þjóðhátíð is for each and every one of us as long as we are looking for the greatest party ever, and luckily for us Icelanders, that happens annually in Westman Islands.

PRIMER CROSS MEDIA MONTAÑA DE LA ASOCIACIÓN DE ESCLEROSIS MÚLTIPLE DE TOLEDO = ADEM-TO

CRÓNICA DE Sergio Miguel - lunes, 13 de mayo de 2013 para La Tribuna de Toledo
El deporte sigue siendo un motor solidario en la ciudad y la última prueba se pudo recoger ayer en el paraje natural conocido como la Fuente del Moro, en el barrio de Santa María de Benquerencia. En esta ocasión, la gran beneficiada fue la Asociación de Esclerosis Múltiple de Toledo (Ademto), que se ocupó de llevar a cabo su I Cross de Media Montaña que contó con el seguimiento cerrado del mundo del atletismo y las victorias de Óscar Martín y Miriam Guijarro en las categorías absolutas.
Ya desde el comienzo de la mañana el ambiente en los alrededores del centro comercial Luz del Tajo denotaba ambiente festivo. Sin embargo, para algunos las alegrías se transformaron en un puntito de sufrimiento cuando se situaron en la línea de salida y divisaron la primera de las cuestas que debían sortear.
Y es que, nada más emprender la marcha por el circuito de seis kilómetros, los atletas se tuvieron que enfrentar a una subida de un enorme desnivel que empezó a establecer las primeras diferencias entre los favoritos. Sin embargo, hubo que esperar hasta pasar por el segundo kilómetro para que el gran candidato al triunfo comenzase a marcar el ritmo.
Óscar Martín tomó la cabeza y empezó a abrir una contundente brecha sobre el resto de sus rivales, entre los que se encontraba un Jesús Lungarán que tiene un hechizo especial con el Polígono. No en vano, se ha proclamado en varias ocasiones vencedor de las populares que se celebran en el barrio toledano y ayer no quería dar su brazo a torcer a las primeras de cambio.
Con todo, en el Cross de Media Montaña de Ademto tenía a un rival muy experimentado que en ningún momento flaqueó para adjudicarse una brillante victoria. De esta forma, Óscar Martín se ocupó de controlar bien a sus rivales y no bajar nunca el ritmo hasta que cruzó triunfante la línea de meta.
Por detrás, a unos segundos de distancia y sin posibilidades de echarle el guante, Jesús Lungarán, Miguel Ángel Pulido y Noé Romero Funchal se tuvieron que conformar con ocupar puestos de honor en sus respectivas categorías.
En la carrera de las féminas, el dominio incontestable le correspondió a Miriam Guijarro Leo, que siguió una estrategia similar a la que utilizó Óscar Martín. Como en el caso del fondista toledano, a la ganadora en la Fuente del Moro le bastó imponer un poderoso ritmo para que el circuito se aliara con ella en la selección de favoritas.
Tanto es así que Guijarro consiguió llevarse la victoria por delante de una atleta que, en las últimas semanas, está tocada por una varita mágica. Se trata de Sonia Ruiz Andrade, perteneciente al TrainingRey, quien se tuvo que conformar con la segunda plaza en la categoría sénior, por delante de Susana Romero Hernández, que completó el podio.
Próximo objetivo. Nada más recuperar el resuello, Óscar Martín reconoció que «es un circuito duro, pero me he entrenado aquí en alguna ocasión y estoy encantado de poder correr en Toledo y por una buena causa como ésta», en referencia a la recaudación benéfica en favor de Ademto.
Aunque no destacó ningún punto especialmente duro en el circuito, porque «había muchas pendientes», admitió que «me he marchado en el segundo kilómetro y luego he ido a mi ritmo». Buena estrategia para lograr una victoria que le debe servir de acicate para su siguiente objetivo, que no es otro que «ganar por cuarto año consecutivo la Carrera del Corpus, que para mí es una clásica, al igual que la San Silvestre». De acuerdo con sus propias palabras, «según estoy, creo que podré llegar bien para disputarla».

Uno de los objetivos más ambiciosos es recuperar y catalogar todo el material gráfico existente en nuestra familia desde 1.915, para después ponerlo a disposición de vosotros, que la historia volviera a sus protagonistas, y los que aún siguen con nosotros pudieran disfrutar con ello.

Four days after the wreck.
We were hit by an 'alleged dui' driver resulting in multiple soft tissue injuries, a rotator cuff tear and a SLAP tear for me, Paul's eyelid being sliced by our car hood coming through the window (I could easily have been widowed at 47), and me being knocked out: concussion or mild TIB / MTBI. I have no memory of the actual wreck. We were transported to the local trauma center, Harborview Hospital. I have a permanent softball-size bruise-appearing discoloration on my right calf due to a (medic's records) softball-size hematoma. People stare at it a lot. I've been branded by someone's choice to drink and drive.

Yüce yaratıcının Rahmetinin, mağfiretinin ve ilâhi lütuflarının sağanak sağanak yağdığı bu mübarek ayı dolu dolu yaşamayı Rabbim hepimize nasip etsin inşallah.
Ramazan ayının ilk on günü rahmet, ikinci on günü mağfiret, son on günü de cehennemden azat'tır.
Mevlam hepimizi geflet uykusundan uyandırıp sevdiği kulları arasına alsın inşallah.

By Anu Kumar
Nataraja, "The Cosmic Dancer" is an ancient image of the divine dating back to prehistoric times in India. The earliest figurines are cast in stone and found amidst the ruins of the Indus Valley civilization (circa 4000-2800 C.E.) Later representations are cast in either bronze or iron and to be found in southern india from the time of the Chola Dynasty (800-1100 A.D.) The most famous of these is installed in the Siva temple at Chidambaram in Tamil Nadu where for centuries it has inspired the imagination and fervent devotion of pilgrims from all over India.
The image is deceptively simple at first glance. It reveals a sure-footed dancer-figure firmly holding down a crouched demon while the other is half-raised in a balancing pose. Four arms reach out expressively - the one on the left holds up a lighted torch from which issue burning flames that form a majestic aureole or a halo of fire around the figure, at once illuminating and encircling it. The right arm holds up a drum, the flying tassels of which indicate a rhythmic song in progress. The lower left hand is held up with palm out in a symbolic gesture, or "mudra", indicating and exhorting fearlessness. The lower right hand reaches gracefully across a lithe torso pointing down towards the delicate foot that is raised in movement. Here rest and salvation are assured to those seeking sincerely. The figure is androgynous with a dangling earring on the left side. Adorned with snakes as armlets, it holds the crescent moon like a jewel-clasp in the hair which is other-wise aflight in all directions in the frenzied ecstasy of dance.
Seen in the mystic imagination of poets from long ago, The Nataraja is a profound vision of the Absolute. This god is by no means aloof or hidden apart from creation in some transfixed realm. Rather He is supremely alive to a present moment in time that is charged with an extraordinary power and bliss. He is utterly joyful and unconstrained. The mystery of such joy lies in a paradox: to be alive is to die each moment and create anew. The Cosmic Dancer has an unstinting capacity to endure his own death and to leap forth into an unknown place where He will be emptied of every familar position or posession, claim or identity - indeed, of life itself. Through such a complete reversal and sacrafice, then, the Dancer attains a new life in an open ground that is now illuminated by the fires of self-knowledge and a triumphant self-awareness. This is the prize, the deepest mystery of His joy. The Nataraja is in complete union- is unity itself as living truth of action.
The sense of unity is expressed through a fine sensitivity to balance by the Cosmic Dancer. Rising above fear and ignorance, this deity knows that movement is an expansion from the limited into the unlimited, of matter into spirit, because He understands balance. Opposites abide in Him rather than exsisiting without: death and creation, lightness and dark, joy and pain, are but complementary poles to be conjoined through harmony and poise. The central axis of the Dancer's body is like a spinal column that knows an exquisite connection to all space and holds it together. Then the entire panorama of the world becomes a play or "lila"- a game, a dance, a spontaneous outflow of energy. The sacred is everywhere and in every step.

Geoffroy normally works with art formats like the EMERGENCY ROOM
to stimulate urgent expression by artist about today 's emergencies :
www.emergencyrooms.org/formats.html
www.colonel.dk contact : emergencyrooms@gmail.comThierry Geoffroy/ Colonel will be exhibiting in the museum Kunsthalle Mannheim from october 2018 part of the exhibition Konstruktion der Welt .Kunst und Ökonomie
Constructing the World: Art and Economy 1919-1939 and 2008-2018
10/12/18 to 02/03/19
Ten years after the peak of the global financial crisis in 2008, which profoundly shook the economic systems of America and Europe and had a lasting effect on present-day life, this topical exhibition is the first to illustrate the economy’s dramatic influence on art and to make global comparisons, demonstrating these in an analysis of two separate eras. Economic phenomena in the classical modernism of the 1920s and 30s are not only explored by focusing on art from the German Weimar Republic, the Soviet Union, and the United States, but also juxtaposed with artists of the present day.
Curatorial team: Dr. Eckhart Gillen (Berlin), Dr. Ulrike Lorenz, Dr. Sebastian Baden
Project Lead: Dr. Inge Herold, Assistence: Lisa Valentina Riedel, M. A. mult., Elisabeth Bohnet, M.A.
How does contemporary art reflect the world of work today? The catalogue for the second part of the exhibition Constructing the World at the Kunsthalle Mannheim takes a look at this question. The focus of it is primarily on artistic positions of the past decade that deal with the social, political, and economic effects of the most recent economic crisis after 2008. The works address and interrogate new production conditions and developments on the labor market as well as political conflicts. The accompanying publication provides fascinating insights into the diverse artistic positions.

www.cadillacforums.com/forums/classic-cadillac-forum/8854...
It's HOT out! But that doesn't mean you should have to break a sweat in your Cadillac. I invested some time into making that a reality once again for this car.
This car was "retrofitted" to R134a in 2004. From the time that I owned it, performance was forgivable until the outside temperature got into the mid 80s and above, or parking in the sun for an extended period of time. Basically it exhibited all of the flaws of a converted car. When it was really hot out, the AC was a bad joke, especially when driving slowly. After exhausting everything else, the only choice was to go back to R12.
I had never done any real AC work besides the occasional charge with a can until the air coming out "felt good." I wanted to have an AC shop do everything, but no one in my area does anything with R12 anymore. I was definitely nervous, as, despite it sucking, the 134 system didn't leak at all. I found that it really wasn't that bad, and I would do it again if I had to.
This is what everything looked like before I started. The compressor was changed in 1991...R4's are not known to live that long so it was definitely going to be replaced. I bought an ancient but new Harrison 200 on Ebay some years ago in preparation for this. Here it is getting ready oiled and ready to spin for the first time in decades! Hopefully it will hold up.
At some point the evaporator core was replaced, evidenced by the black goop sealing the box. I wasn't sure of it's condition so I was going to replace it too (it wan't in bad shape and was probably a waste to anyone who might be considering undertaking something like this). I'm glad I did it because the way the box was sealed really wasn't the best and was probably sacrificing some efficiency. I didn't take any pictures of the box itself, but the sealant that was used was a nightmare to remove completely. This was really the worst part of the job, as whoever did it last must have bought stock in the sealant company. Even the drain was filled full of the stuff
So I'm not sure how exactly it was draining before (it did drain though, no standing condensate) There is a bolt that holds the bottom of the HVAC box to the firewall, just about where the passenger's left foot would rest that goes behind the carpet, through to the engine bay. This bolt was missing, and the box was surprisingly...you guessed it, glued to the firewall with about a 1/2 tube of sealant! I was able to find a nut and bolt that was appropriate to hold the box as it was designed to. While I was behind the carpet, I also noticed this.
This rubber plug has 3 vacuum lines running through it. Mine was loose, so much so that if one shined a light at the firewall from under the hood it would come through the car. It was a bitch to get a grasp on and seat back into position. I had no idea that it was there, much less that it was loose and causing an air leak into the car right by one of the manifold-to-Y pipes. I only mention this because I told my buddy about it who owns a 1985 car and his was just kinda dangling there like mine was. Worth looking at if you own a car of this era. I had to use two pair of tiny needlenose to put enough power on it to pop it back in.
There was nothing really wrong with the lines or condenser, so they would be flushed out, 134a-dapters removed, mineral oiled and put back into service. At an HVAC pro's recommendation, I used RX11 AC flush. Nasty stuff, but did a great job. It is really important to get the 134a oil out of the system, along with any garbage that may have accumulated over the years. My job was made easier by tons of green dye that was in the system.
The orifice tube is supposed to collect physical contaminants. They really shouldn't be that dirty, provided you're not working with a car that had a blown compressor. No idea how old this tube was, but it was not bad.
Once I had the system flushed, I put everything back together using one of those AC o-ring kits. My mechanic checked it for leaks, and then vacuumed it down. Finally I was ready to charge! I was excited, and regrettably forgot to take pictures of the process (I even bought a gauge set). Anyway, the only one more excited than me was the car!
Can you see the cold?
Vent temps are in the mid 40's around town, NYC. Figure 90 +/- 5 and very humid. On the highway, I've seen as low as 37, but no lower. Of note, these measurements were taken from the center vents using a digital temp sensor, not a vent thermometer. Regardless, of the vent temp, the car itself is actually cool inside which is something I remember about R12 that even newer cars that have much more consistent performance seem to lack. Ice coming out of the vents, but you have to be in the airflow to actually be cool. Not so anymore. I'm so pleased with this, and kinda shocked that it worked! To anyone contemplating AC work, I recommend watching this guy's videos, especially this one
www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kh0CGLWX_Wc
It helped me out a lot (read: gave me confidence to tear into an air conditioning system) I'll be back with an unrelated update sometime soon, and I don't mean 3 months soon like last time!

The largest Gnostica playfield we've ever seen -- 3X as high and 2X as wide as the initial board. This game took about 2.5 hours! (Four-player games take forever, especially if everyone fights each other for the initial 9 territories, as opposed to striking out and creating new territory.)
Kevin & Ethan saw us playing Gnostica, and they pretty insistently wanted to play. Now it took us about 5 yrs to realize how to play the game correctly and learn our strategy. But tehse 7/10-year-olds pick up games really fast, and play advanced games like us, not the simple games most people play. They were even picking up on some of it just by watching me & Carolyn.
It's hard to see the color difference in this picture, but Clint is red, and Ethan is orange. (Kevin was yellow, and Carolyn was purple, as always.)
We taught them how, and then Ethan ended up winning! Carolyn stupidly called 9 prematurely (ignoring Clint's repeated and vehement warnings that her 9 points were not secure), and thus eliminated herself from the game first. Ethan and Kevin then ganged up on Clint, who built land to the west, then had the land connecting us destroyed, effectively exiling him on an island, until he managed to get back inland and at least claim The Devil, wreaking some (but not enough) havoc. In the end, Kevin didn't orient himself to face Ethan enough to move on his territory after he called 9, and neither did Clint, so Ethan's 9-point victory squeaked by, making him the youngest person to ever beat us in Gnostica.

¥1900/US$16.93 (plus a ¥300/US$2.65 cover charge for some reason, why is there a cover charge for a pizzeria??).
It's a decent pizza. The crust is a little too doughy and soft but the toppings are very fresh and properly seasoned.
I haven't had a decent pizza in literally over a year so I was happy.

Dreamer
1
There are few probabilities through
Which dreamers do not pass. . .
The first dream
Is the bright red dream
Of our mother’s heart.
It is her sacrifice
Of something eternal
In herself, for us.
The Arabs say
Blood has flowed
Let us begin again.
The heart is like a cup, or a coffer,
or a cave. It holds the image of the
sun within us. It is a center of illumination
and happiness and wisdom. To dream
of the heart is always to dream of
the importance of love. . .
The second dream is the inauguration
Of the soul. In this dream we are
Confronted by a host of birds. . .
Some were guileless
Like the doves,
Said Odo of Tusculum,
Cunning
Like the partridges.
Some came to the hand
Like the hawks.
Others fled from it
Like the hens,
Some enjoyed the company
Of people
Like swallows,
Others preferred solitude
Like the turtledoves,
But all eventually flew away.
“Living is not necessary, but navigation
is,” said Pompey the Great.
B. 1725, London
Mother devout as gunpowder
Seemingly clairvoyant
Taught her only child
To read by four
Arithmetic and Latin by six
Dies when he is seven.
I am dreaming
I am in the dark
And it is raining
And she is the rain.
To dream that you are in the dark
is a sign of difficulties ahead; if
you fall or hurt yourself you can expect
a change for the worse, but if you
succeed in groping to the light, that
is another matter. . .
Father, master of ships,
Lively in the Mediterranean trade,
Unusual qualities —
Educated in Spain, stern.
I listen to nothing
But the silence
Of my father; the dream
Says
He is the rudder
And the compass.
If, in your dreams, you see your
father and he speaks to you, it is
a sign of coming happiness. If he is
silent, or if he appears to be ill or
dead, then you may expect trouble. . .
Sent to sea at ten,
Acted like a verb in disagreement,
Of course
Bright,
But no eagle —
A mess.
I have vague
Dreams now
Of intelligent flowers.
I cannot say
If their roots
Are in the ground
Or in the air.
By seventeen
A wildflower
In the field of Jesus.
Pious, books, fasting,
Abstinence from meat,
A canon in his meditation
And silence,
But like the weeds
Loved to curse.
Flowers, one of nature’s best dreams.
This foretells great happiness, unless
you throw away the blossoms. . .
1742
A lot more flexible,
Falls in love,
Misses his ship,
A freethinker now,
Less of a thorn
In the side of God.
I dream that I
Am always with her,
A freckle on her wrist,
A flower in her hair,
A ridiculous flying fish —
Sliced
And dressed
And set on the table.
As I told you before,
He missed his ship,
Became a lover
Rather than a Jamaican
Planter,
Father as expected
Furious.
Love is a dream of contraries as far
as sweethearts are concerned. To dream
that you do not succeed in love is a
sign that you will marry and have
a happy life. To dream that you are in
the company of your lover is also fortunate. . .
Late 1743
Kidnapped into the Navy
(What else)
Coming from Mary’s house.
Taken from his own life,
Focused into new pieces.
I dream about my fortune,
A fragrance captured
In a jar,
A freckle without a wrist,
A wisp
Foxlike at the edge
Of the wind.
Fortune is a dream of contraries: the more
fortunate and successful you are in imagination,
the greater will be your real struggles. . .
How do we fit together
When we are not free?
What kind of animal are we?
How many heads do we have?
How many tails?
The sea
Is a strange piece of property
On which to discuss this,
On the hms Hardwick
One month later
Midshipman John Newton:
I have eaten war
Like a cluster
Of delicious fruit.
The ironic juices
Running from my lips
That was my dream.
The reality of war is the dream of it. Beware
of those things that appear so friendly
but have no reason. . .
1774
The Hardwick
Ordered to the East Indies.
First our hero visits Mary again.
(You’re wrong)
Almost misses ship,
Completely misses the point.
Given small boat of men
To go ashore at Plymouth,
Deserts.
My dreams here
Were father, compass,
Fog, leakage,
And ultimately, learning,
With us
Like our laundry.
We are always pulling from our past. Fossils
are the dream of the sickness of someone
you have not met for a long time. When
this happens brew herbs, add honey
and lemon, sip and inhale deeply. . .
Captured like a frog,
Returned, put in irons,
Stripped, flogged, degraded,
Returned to foremast.
This is that point many people would
call a black moment, an unfortunate
color on things. I will not do that. For
black is a contrary at funerals and our
hero has just died a little as we
all tend to from time to time. And even
though that is true I will not do
that either. I will not talk of the great
white moment of death, I will not talk
of the great blue and purple moments
in the prosperity of pain. I will not
talk of the great red or scarlet moments
of quarrels and loss of friends, or
the crimson pleasure of the unexpected,
the mental tints of yellow and orange
that show you should always expect
change, or the feeling of knowing green
because you have been on a long journey.
All the colors are conjurers when our
mysteries are being solved. And if this could
not be his dream then by now it should
be ours. . .
We are not holy
The wind says in the sails
As he works.
It has never been otherwise
Though we live in the most
Devout of stories like litmus paper
Constantly changing color
Just to prove something
Is happening.
The sadness in his dream is a good omen
for the future. It is a quest for lasting joy,
and so is punishment a dream of unexpected
pleasure. . .
Works quietly for weeks.
His silence
Darns a temperate
Healing thread
His eyes
Become an elaborate
Decorative art
Avoiding everyone.
“Every month,” said Cicero
“the moon contemplates
its trajectory
and the shrubs
and animals grow.”
He has done to himself
What is easy.
He must now blossom
Out of his new secrets
Even if joy is ephemeral.
Suddenly
He begins to sing,
Creates songs about fish
And clouds.
Fish are a dream of penetrative motion,
clouds are a dream of appearances always
in a state of change. . .
We must be patient
With the overfecundity
Of his youth.
We must let him
Climb and descend the mast
Like a weapon.
Trade him
To a slaver’s ship
To subdue the threat
To discipline
In his strangely awakening
Joy.
We must let him
Choose his monsters
And the myths
Of his own worth —
The enemy always being
The forces threatening
From within.
Paul said, “We wrestle not against flesh
and blood, but against principalities, against
powers, against the rulers of the darkness
of this world, against spiritual wickedness in
high places. . .”
Suddenly,
Begins to breathe
Different songs
In his six-months’ stay
Along the Sierra Leone coast.
Troublesome songs,
Songs of quick wit
And devastating rhymes
Ridiculing ship’s officers,
Crew loves them,
Becomes a choir.
To dream that you hear other people
singing shows that the difficulties
that will come for you will come through
your dealings with other people. . .
The irate mate
Assuming command
After the death of the captain
Threatens
To put Newton
On a man-o’-war.
The Royal Navy is not an obstacle dream;
it is an elaborate exhibition of the
nuances of living death. . .

On one of the Plantanes
Features: Short, white male
Name: Clow
Other information: Black wife
Name: sounds like P.I.
John Newton
Bargains his life
Into this extravagant story.
He will become a slave
Because P.I. will hate him.
He will become ill
With fever.
He will be denied
Food,
Denied water,
Tormented by Black slaves
On command,
Put to work
On a lime tree plantation
Enjoying only the scents
And dreaming
Of his earthly desires,
Will master the six books
Of Euclid,
Drawing the diagrams
With a long stick
In the wet sand.
Six is, like two, a particularly ambiguous
number to dream about, but it
establishes equilibrium. It unifies
the triangles of fire and water and
symbolizes the human soul. Six is
the hermaphrodite, a personality integrated
despite its duality.
If this is a story
Of the reasoning of slavery,
Where are we?
What have we been doing
To people,
To the light
From which life emanates?
Slavery is a story
Of procreation,
Of magic religious thinking,
Of the androgynous divinity
Within us.
No story can be this happy
Unless it is married
To something deeply within us.
It is not them
Who have done it to us,
Or us
Who have done it to them.
It is the antagonistic dream
Of unreconciled love.
To dream of erotic love is to dream of
the desire to die in the object of desire, to
dissolve in that which is already
dissolved. The Book of Baruch says erotic
desire and its satisfaction is the key
to the origin of the world. Disappointment
in love and the revenge which follows
in its wake are the roots of all the evil
and selfishness in the world. The whole
of history is the work of love.

“The character of the image,” said Shukrâchârya,
“is determined by the relationship between
the worshipper and the worshipped.”
On the beach,
He eats the fruit
Of his own way;
He fills himself
With his own devices;
He continues to draw
In the sand.
Each grain
Is a small,
Precise form
Of salvation
That has occurred,
A god come to earth
In another form,
A private,
Innate sacrifice.
Providence does not tire.
We are ready to go on
With the story.
It has come to this:
When his father dreams
He only sees
The broad face
Of sadness,
The soft grassland
Where only asphodels grow,
And the idea of water
Expanding into tears.
But to dream of sadness is a good
omen, a transportation of suffering to the
spiritual: this dream is like an herb,
a seasoning, a bitter root, medicinal,
something poisonous, but nevertheless
something that eventually withers away.
When you
Come on to squally weather,
When the wind
Is about SW,
When
You sway up the yard
Fix the trysail,
Put people to making
Sennit and swab,
Ask for my son.
Ask the Lamb,
The Beverly, the Golden Lyon,
Ask Job Lewis,
Have you seen my boy?
Have you seen my boy?
One thousand years before Christ, Solomon
said that the way of a ship in the midst
of the sea was too wonderful for him
to understand.
Meanwhile,
Clow: shamed
Into freeing his fellow
White man.
After all
They share the same hair,
The same instinctual life,
The same irrational power.
There is no victim here:
This is a story of love’s
Sadness,
Of the spirit of love’s ferocity
And savage insensibility,
And the name of Jesus
Turned in hymns,
Spewed into the fringes
Of the forest,
Spewed on the deep blue sea.
What dream is this, is that what you said?
My God, this is the dream of the dragon,
the fabulous animal, the amalgam of
aggression, the serpent, the crocodile, the
lion, what we like to think is the
antediluvian nature of love.
John is free now.
John is free to slave,
Free to be reluctant,
To give up profit
and return home.
Ask the master of the Greyhound.
Have you seen my boy?
Have you seen my boy?
To find money in your dream is not fortunate
at all. There will be some sudden advancement
or success, but it will prove
disappointing. Reader, remember this
statement by Virgil, “It will be pleasant
to remember these things hereafter.”
You cannot blame
The sea on a woman.
Unlike the seasons
It has no ribs
Though
It has a crown,
Wears a sheath,
Swings a sickle,
Adores the sun,
And is known
As bareheaded and leafless.
The sea is the emblem
Of the great capricious world;
The naked image of flux
Vibrating between life and death.
There is a dream called “Dire is the tossing
deep the groans; come let us heel, list
and stoop.” And when John heard this
on his way home, it was as if he
had read 2 Kings 10:16, “Come with me
[brother] and see my zeal for the lord.”
For twelve months
The Greyhound
Sought gold,
Ivory, dyer’s wood,
Beeswax,
And Newton sought the Lord.
The way of a ship in the midst of the sea
is too wonderful to understand.
Youth is not innocence.
It is not a militant puzzlement.
It is a methodological initiation
Into the ubiquitous life
Of sin.
For a life without sin
Is no life at all.
And so he wanders on
Like Paul,
So very Christian about it,
At once wretched and delivered.
Thinking with his mind
He is serving God,
But with his flesh
The law of sin.
Call out John Newton.
Call out
To Joshua, Ruth,
Samuel, Obadiah,
Esther, Zechariah,
Luke and Timothy.
The world
Is a masterfully round
Secret
That embraces everything,
And it is time
To reach into the horizon,
Now.
It is time to choose
Your ship,
And the triangle of your life
Upon the salty sea.
As you can see, dreams are without reason,
without solution, without proof, the
unedited version of our love, our aspiration,
our hurt. . . Call out John Newton. Call out. . .
Back home
Offered captaincy of ship.
Refuses.
Sails as first mate
On the Brownlow.
Collects slaves.
Takes them to South Carolina.
He begins to dream of questions: “What
was the mode used in stowing the slaves
in their apartments?”
Returns home,
Marries Mary Cattlett,
Assumes first command,
The Duke of Argyle,
140 tons burthen.
Marriage is the dream of sulfur and
mercury. Some believe it is a most fortunate
omen, a volatile conciliation, a fragile
union. They are right. It is one of the great
uncharted seas of individuation. It is
said, “If you are separated from your
opposite you consume yourself away. . .”

One-third of the slaves will die
In middle passage
Some say fifty million
Started the trip
Some say fifteen.
The dream of questions is a bright necklace
with two ornaments on it: liberty and
love, not truth.
“At noon some small rain. . .
Had an indifferent observation. . .”
“We take the two men-boys
For some shallop rigging,
We do not take
The two fallen-breasted women. . .”
“Dear Mary,
Today, saw
My quondam Black
Mistress P.I. —
I believe
I made her sorry
For her former ill
Treatment of me.”
The trouble with atonement is it is like
a sphinx, several parts human, several
parts bull, dog, lion, dragon, or bird.
When we are dreaming of atonement, no
matter how subtly, we must remember
we are not dreaming of a verb.
“I watch them work
The tie, tackle,
And lower lift.
The boatswain
Speaks to Bredson
About the score
In one of the strops.
Thomas Creed
Sits with his splicing fids;
Tucks the strands
Of the tack cringle.
His fingers are either
Little mystics or snakes.”
When you dream the dream of square-sail
rigging you are dreaming the dream
that the same side is always before
the wind. At the dawn of Swedish history
it was believed Erik Vädderhatt, the
King of the Svear, could turn the wind
and cruise endlessly. Ships are supposed
to be emblems of transcendental joy. . .
“Do the male slaves
Ever dance
Under these circumstances?”
“After every meal
They are made to jump
In their irons;
But I cannot call it dancing.”
“What is the term
That is usually given to it?”
“It is by the slave dealers
Called dancing.”
“Unclewed the sails.
They too in their shackles
Danced in the wind.”
“Dear Mary,
I watched the land wind
Do to the sails
What it does
To our hair.
I dreamed of dancing
With you
Into the cold water,
Our wet clothes
Like nets and entanglements
Around our desire.”
They would call them up
Two by two, equivocal,
Unmasked,
Making it possible
To be classified
Forever:
Pairs of birds,
Pairs of oxen,
Pairs of sheep,
Reptiles, lions,
Elephants, antediluvian,
Carnivorous, herbivorous,
Fabulous, beautiful,
Ugly, strange,
Cocks, locusts, bears,
Foxes, and even flies,
All of them black;
All of them in colonnade
To the gates of hell.
John did baptize
In the wilderness,
Did call out to Judæa
And Jerusalem
Come lay down
Your life
In the River Jordan,
Participate in his death
And his resurrection.
They said
They were refreshing them,
But the shackles still clanged,
And most of them still stank,
And many finding holes
In the netting
Jumped overboard
And baptized themselves
Bobbing in the adoring
Loins of the sea.
“Dear Mary,
The three greatest blessings
Of which human nature is capable
Are undoubtedly religion,
Liberty and love.”
The shape of a ship’s hull is determined by
the materials, methods of construction,
means of propulsion, use, fashion, and
whim. This is a dream of law and
the minute verities of justice, the eighth
enigma of the tarot.
First part fair,
The latter cloudy,
Winds becoming unusual,
Clouds dark, great lightning. . .
I think of what we’ve done,
My own illumination
Before it is too late:
The palm and needle whippings,
The short splice,
Blackwall hitches,
Sheet bends.
Quickly rummage
The rigging details,
The yardarm blocks,
The tackles.
Recall work
On the pintles,
The rudder head.
Have Billinge
Check barricado and stores,
Especially powder and slaves.
On this day
Of the second voyage
Of The African, 1754,
Weighed,
Bound by God’s permission
To St. Christophers,
We are ready for our justice,
To be winnowed like barley
On the threshing floor.
The great dream of the dark, with the
lonely extroverted lamp, the intuitive ship,
and the wind tossing on the innovative sea
should moor somewhere. “Why is this
so?” asked Kuo Hsi. For in our landscapes
and our seascapes are the personalized items
of our consciousness, the coarse grist
of our imagination, the flirtatious metaphors
stirring our ethics, and the boldly stroked
delineations of our unraveling possibilities
and original nature.
Through the night
We were played with
Like kittens.
The slaves spilled
Out nightmares of themselves
And groans.
We will all
Need dawn’s shawl
This morning.
I hope
She is good to us.
Osiris was slain by Set and put
together again by Isis. John will dream
like this, off and on, and then quit the
sea. This is his last voyage. He will
lose no slaves and no crew, and it will
be called a blessing. At a time like
this the Egyptians would build a
monolith to marry the enigmatic tension
between life and death. John will
change his dreams, now, from the menstrual
dreams of the slaver to the menthol dreams
of the minister. Showing the devastating evil
we do, like a storm, is only a stepping-
stone to something else.
Sing brother.
I will become sermons,
He says,
That understand what I’ve done.
Sing
I will become hymns
Bound in the skin
Of what I’ve done.
I will be patient with Cowper,
Inspiring to Wilberforce
And Wordsworth;
I will attract the awakened crowds,
The abolitionist.
I will stand at the altar.
Sing brother
Dressed in black,
Testifying,
Testifying. . .
I dream I will not be forgiving him
for the timeliness of his innocence, for
betrothing the dead to the dead,
but will be lifting
up my hands to an appetite for life
that will take slavers and slaves with me.
I wish
There was no timelessness,
That slavery was over
And so far away
It was an incredibly mysterious
Jungle —
Somewhere else.
An uncharted river
Canopied by extensive moss —
Somewhere else.
A spectacular ragged
Waterfall
Mystically expressed
Over an enormous
Obsidian wall,
But it is right here
In my pouch, today,
Like the acori beads
I have been swimming with
For hours —
Presidential, prime ministerial,
Corporate, grassroots based.
right here,
Racist, imperial, and sexist.
right here,
Woefully spendthrift
And Democratic,
Anally retentive
And Republican,
Militantly inappropriate,
And so good to itself
That it jogs.

Primus St. John's poems often wed personal to public and quotidian to historical. He is as well known for his love poems as for his long poems, notably the epic poem “Dreamer,” written in the voices of the slaves and the captain aboard a slave ship. He has said that he tries “to be as comfortable with anger as [he is] with tenderness,” and this is evidenced by his nuanced handling of the human proclivity for contradiction as well as self-improvement.

Sacred Hunger
For those interested in the history of the slave trade, Barry Unsworth's Sacred Hunger is an excellent and well-researched fictional accounting of the fate of one slaving ship, its owner and the many lives on board.
"Unsworth illuminates the barbaric cruelty of slavery, as well as the subtler habits of politics and character that it creates." (Publisher's Weekly)
