Ohhhh, no, no. Please. I don't know how people feel about this kind of ad, but this looks very hypocritic and I felt veeeery annoyed. There must be a better way to promote the project... I can even see people's sense of superiority; people who are related to this project. [Brklyn]
ｱﾌﾘｶをｻﾎﾟｰﾄしよう、助けようっていう運動?の広告です。これを見て、どうお感じになりましたか？とても偽善的に見えて私には非常に不快でした。逆に、このﾌﾟﾛｼﾞｪｸﾄに関与している人たちの優越感すら感じられたのですが…。も少し、マシな宣伝の仕方があるのではないかと思いました。

An ironic and hypocritical statement is at the top of those columns "Equal Justice Under Law" well that hasnt held true for blacks, women, the unborn, and many others in this country. Perhaps this building would have been better built after the end of abortion.
Sint-Janskathedraal in Den Bosch. I found some pilaarbijting gargoyles! Preliminary research points to the pilaarbijter as a symbol of the hypocrite. It is also a delicious Belgian ale.
Tim Gunn is always going on and on about how he hates half-pants, but he made a concession for this show, showing how much of a hypocrite he really is.
The Exile of Profundity & Brilliance

Formerly educated and employed as a graphic artist I’ve had the opportunity to work with many wonderful clients including Public Television, Human Rights Campaign, but I became frustrated creating throw-away-art in the form of public service announcements and designing for the client, who has all the say. Eschewing art schools with their labyrinthine structures and syllabi based on obtaining academic units and defying the class distinctions pervading the art world-I made my transition from graphic designer to Artist with aplomb. Now I’m creating art for art’s sake, I bring my voice, my view.
Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye are like unto whited sepulchres, which indeed appear beautiful outward, but are within full of dead men's bones, and of all uncleanness.
Matthew 23:27
Life is not like camouflage ... in front of other talk behind other talk ... same also with hypocrite man that name.
Live at Brixton Academy, 19th June 2008. This is how I viewed a not insignificant portion of the show. I know it's probably hypocritical of me to complain about it given that I've just uploaded some video and around 25 photos from the show, but if you're going to take photos at a live show, don't even bother thinking about using a camera phone, know how your own camera works to get a good ratio of duds to gooduns and for the love of god unless you are right up against the front of the stage the flash is USELESS. And unless there is a costumer change you don't need to take photos every. single. song. She still looks the same in each one you know.
In this dictionary Bierce compiles the canon of human weaknesses, prejudices, absurdities and habits. The subtle, nasty ''definitions'' of words expose the very aspect in them that normal consciousness hypocritically tries to cover up. Over 1,000 barbed and brilliant definitions by the 19th-century journalist and satirist often called "the American Swift."
First published as "The Cynic's Word Book" (1906) and later reissued under its preferred name in 1911, Bierce's notorious collection of barbed definitions forcibly contradicts Samuel Johnson's earlier definition of a lexicographer as a harmless drudge. There was nothing harmless about Ambrose Bierce, and the words he shaped into verbal pitchforks a century ago--with or without the devil's help--can still draw blood today.
The American writer Ambrose Bierce (1842-1914) had not only a sharp tongue, but also a pointed feather. He was one of the most dazzling figures in 19th-century literary America - the personified provocation and a hateful cynic who left no subject out. No matter whether it was about general, small or great weaknesses of the human race - nothing was sacred to his mockery. He became famous with his "Devil´s Dictionary", a collection of gallant and pointedly spiritual aphorisms.
The size of the eBook is about 180 pages.

Death and the Miser
c. 1485/1490
Hieronymus Bosch
Netherlandish, c. 1450 - 1516
In this panel Bosch shows us the last moments in the life of a miser, just before his eternal fate is decided. A little monster peeping out from under the bed–curtains tempts the miser with a bag of gold, while an angel kneeling at the right encourages him to acknowledge the crucifix in the window. Death, holding an arrow, enters at the left.
Oppositions of good and evil occur throughout the painting. A lantern containing the fire of Hell, carried by the demon atop the bed canopy, balances the cross which emits a single ray of divine light. The figure in the middle ground, perhaps representing the miser earlier in his life, is shown as hypocritical; with one hand he puts coins into the strongbox where they are collected by a rat–faced demon, and with the other he fingers a rosary, attempting to serve God and Mammon at the same time. A demon emerging from underneath the chest holds up a paper sealed with red wax — perhaps a letter of indulgence or a document that refers to the miser's mercenary activities.
This type of deathbed scene derives from an early printed book, the Ars Moriendi or "Art of Dying," which enjoyed great popularity in the second half of the fifteenth century. The panel may have been the left wing of an altarpiece; the other panels — now missing — would have clarified the meaning of some aspects of the scene, such as the discarded and broken armor and weapons in the foreground.
More information on this painting can be found in the Gallery publication Early Netherlandish Painting, which is available as a free PDF www.nga.gov/content/dam/ngaweb/research/publications/pdfs...

The National Gallery of Art in Washington, DC is a world-class art museum that displays one of the largest collections of masterpieces in the world including paintings, drawings, prints, photographs, sculpture, and decorative arts from the 13th century to the present. The National Gallery of Art collection includes an extensive survey of works of American, British, Italian, Flemish, Spanish, Dutch, French and German art. With its prime location on the National Mall, surrounded by the Smithsonian Institution, visitors often think that the museum is a part of the Smithsonian. It is a separate entity and is supported by a combination of private and public funds. Admission is free. The museum offers a wide range of educational programs, lectures, guided tours, films, and concerts.
The original neoclassical building, the West Building includes European (13th-early 20th century) and American (18th-early 20th century) paintings, sculptures, decorative arts, and temporary exhibitions. The National Gallery of Art was opened to the public in 1941 with funds provided by the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation. The original collection of masterpieces was provided by Mellon, who was the U. S. Secretary of the Treasury and ambassador to Britain in the 1930s. Mellon collected European masterpieces and many of the Gallery’s original works were once owned by Catherine II of Russia and purchased in the early 1930s by Mellon from the Hermitage Museum in Leningrad.
The core collection includes major works of art donated by Paul Mellon, Ailsa Mellon Bruce, Lessing J. Rosenwald, Samuel Henry Kress, Rush Harrison Kress, Peter Arrell Browne Widener, Joseph E. Widener, and Chester Dale. The Gallery's collection of paintings, drawings, prints, photographs, sculpture, medals, and decorative arts traces the development of Western art from the Middle Ages to the present, including the only painting by Leonardo da Vinci in the Americas and the largest mobile created by Alexander Calder.
The NGA's collection galleries and Sculpture Garden display European and American paintings, sculpture, works on paper, photographs, and decorative arts. Paintings in the permanent collection date from the Middle Ages to the present. The Italian Renaissance collection includes two panels from Duccio's Maesta, the tondo of the Adoration of the Magi by Fra Angelico and Filippo Lippi, a Botticelli work on the same subject, Giorgione's Allendale Nativity, Giovanni Bellini's The Feast of the Gods, Ginevra de' Benci (the only painting by Leonardo da Vinci in the Americas) and groups of works by Titian and Raphael.
The collections include paintings by many European masters, including a version of Saint Martin and the Beggar, by El Greco, and works by Matthias Grünewald, Cranach the Elder, Rogier van der Weyden, Albrecht Dürer, Frans Hals, Rembrandt, Johannes Vermeer, Francisco Goya, Jean Auguste Dominique Ingres, and Eugène Delacroix, among others. The collection of sculpture and decorative arts includes such works as the Chalice of Abbot Suger of St-Denis and a collection of work by Auguste Rodin and Edgar Degas. Other highlights of the permanent collection include the second of the two original sets of Thomas Cole's series of paintings titled The Voyage of Life, (the first set is at the Munson-Williams-Proctor Arts Institute in Utica, New York) and the original version of Watson and the Shark by John Singleton Copley (two other versions are in the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston and the Detroit Institute of Arts).

Andrew W. Mellon, who pledged both the resources to construct the National Gallery of Art as well as his high-quality art collection, is rightly known as the founder of the gallery. But his bequest numbered less than two hundred paintings and sculptures—not nearly enough to fill the gallery’s massive rooms. This, however, was a feature, not a failure of Mellon’s vision; he anticipated that the gallery eventually would be filled not only by his own collection, but also by additional donations from other private collectors. By design, then, it was both Andrew Mellon and those who followed his lead—among them, eight men and women known as the Founding Benefactors—to whom the gallery owes its premier reputation as a national art museum. At the gallery’s opening in 1941, President Roosevelt stated, “the dedication of this Gallery to a living past, and to a greater and more richly living future, is the measure of the earnestness of our intention that the freedom of the human spirit shall go on.”

Isn't it time for American Hypocrites to stop funding repression!!
Interior minister denies to parliament that police used rubber bullets to break up recent protests
Until I draw my last breath on this earth
And death it takes me as is promised from your birth
I know I got so much living to do
I'll be so long asleep the lord I'll pray my soul to keep
A place to stay the lord shall grant me sanctuary
For peace of mind the lord I'll ask for sanity
Seek and I shall find a place of rest for sanctity
Save us from imbeciles who think they rule the world
Save us from hypocrites whose twisted plans unfurl
Save us from warmongers who'd bring on Armageddon
Save us from all of those whose eyes are closed
To the plight of the African child
We get along it's all about the chemistry
Up there way beyond the mere exchange of pleasantries
Please don't she'd no tears it's all about the energy
Save us from imbeciles who think they rule the world
Save us from hypocrites whose twisted plans unfurl
Save us from warmongers who'd bring on Armageddon
Save us from all of those whose eyes are closed
To the plight of the African child
A place to stay the lord shall grant me sanctuary
For peace of mind the lord I'll ask for sanity
Seek and I shall find a place of rest for sanctity
Save us from imbeciles who think they rule the world
Save us from hypocrites whose twisted plans unfurl
Save us from warmongers who'd bring on Armageddon
Save us from all of those whose eyes are closed
To the plight of the African child
And so when all is said and done
I'll count my blessings spread my wings and fly, fly home

Unfortunately, truth is never told and if you are a poor country like Ethiopia, if you are not affluent, your concern becomes mute. The wretched and the second-class of this world are somewhat considered deficient and incapable of running their affairs. The tacit and unspoken opinion of Africa in the Western world and especially of Sub-Saharan Africa is shockingly condescending and mean. The blunt and candid opinion of Mr. Trump of African nations as shithole countries frankly is an opinion shared by many in the West. Liberals and progressives claim they are for justice and fairness, but when it comes to Africa, I am afraid their opinion is no different from Mr. Trump. One says it openly, bluntly and arrogantly and the other does it covertly, but the message is all the same. Africa is a forlorn, deplorable and dismal place, Africa is not important.
No, Africa is not a wretched continent and for sure Ethiopia is not a deplorable
country. Thanks, in many ways by self-inflicted wounds and hostilities aimed by Ethiopia’s external enemies the country has become the face of war, famine, division, and poverty. But Ethiopia is not just famine and poverty, it is not inconsequential country. It has laudable history and proud, independent, passionate and strong people. It is one of the oldest countries in the world. It is home of three major religious denomination, Christianity, Islam and Judaism.
