“We eagerly consume noisy ephemeridae, here with a bang today, gone without a whimper tomorrow—movies, beach-wear, pulp magazines, this morning’s headlines and tomorrow’s TV programmes—yet we insist on aesthetic and moral standards hitched to permanency, durability and perennity” (Banham, 3)

   

“If the attitude of the cosmetician toward the body is a minimalism, then it is of a very different sort than the Minimalism spawned by the art world more than two decades ago. While the two share a desire to collapse the time of impact of a work to the immediate, the former pursued that goal by distilling form and material into an essence that radiated (spiritual) affect through unmediated presence. The reductions of cosmetic minimalism, on the other hand, are anorexic, a compulsion to starve the body until it dissolves into pure (erotic) affect, like a Cheshire cat in heat.” (Kipnis, 26)

   

“As the apparatus of cultural diffusion becomes increasingly technological, its ‘products’ become less viewable as discrete, individual events, but rather more as related elements in a continuous contextual flow, i.e., the book-novel compared to TV” (McHale, 109)

   

“45. Detachment is the prerogative of an elite; and as the dandy is the 19th century’s surrogate for the aristocrat in matters of culture, so Camp is the modern dandyism. Camp is the answer to the problem: how to be a dandy in the age of mass culture.” (Sontag, 288)

   

“Giedion’s effort to clean up architectural discourse by covering architecture’s nakedness in the folds of articulate speech parallels the fact that many of the buildings he described were meant to exemplify the cleansing property of architecture” (Lavin, 71)

   

““Get rid of everything in your house or apartment that doesn’t represent who you are,” counseled quotable style guru Quentin Crisp. “You should regard your home as your dressing room.” (Garber, 94)

  

Sherman (1820-1891) was appointed major general in charge of the Army of Tennessee in 1861 by Ulysses S. Grant. His assignment was to cut off supply lines to the Confederate troops. During his famous March to the Sea, he burned Atlanta, caused Savannah to surrender peacefully, and marched north to Charleston. Although he supported peace on generous terms, he fought ruthlessly to bring a swift end to the war. After Lee's surrender at Appomattox, he helped to convince Lincoln to act charitably toward the South (although Lincoln's intentions were ignored by the Reconstruction Congress). After Grant was elected president, Sherman became the commanding general of the U.S. Army. The Republican Party tried numerous times to convince Sherman to run for public office. In declining the party's proposed nomination for the presidency in 1884, he made the quotable statement: "If I nominated I will not run. If elected I will not serve." The memorial is massive and contains a substantial number of figures, therefore involving participation from numerous artists. The designer died before it was completed.

If you're living in Europe, November 30 2010 marks the last day you can send in your Kodachrome films for developing. Which is such a shame, I actually can not find any words for it. At least no words which would be quotable.

GST Eastern Voles Christmas gathering at Flitton Moor

19/12/2017

Hi All & Tim

May I add my thanks to you all and wish you a happy Christmas and lots of good Voling together in 2018. I cannot wait. All those bonfires, cakes and sarcastic humour.

I thought I would be clever and write a piece about Tuesday incorporating some relevant quotes but the effort has quite overtaken me. So here instead are a few lines from a very wise & quotable Englishman .

It was the best of times, it was the worst of times.

There is nothing in the world so irresistibly contagious as laughter and good humour.

I loved her against reason, against promise, against peace, against hope, against happiness, against all discouragement that could be.

Never close your lips to those whom you have already opened your heart.

There are books of which the backs and covers are by far the best parts.

We forge the chains we wear in life.

No one is useless in this world who lightens the burden of it to anyone else.

There are dark shadows on the earth, but its lights are stronger in the contrast.

The pain of parting is nothing to the joy of meeting again.

Have a heart that never hardens, and a temper that never tires, and a touch that never hurts.

The whole difference between construction and creation is exactly this: that a thing constructed can only be loved after it is constructed; but a thing created is loved before it exists.

 

There are loads more to choose from and I have to say I was very surprised, perhaps I should read some of his books instead of relying on BBC Childrens Dramas from my earlier years when, hard to believe I was a sprog with hopes and the occasional dream, many of which have been far exceeded in life.

My snaps from Flitton are as usual at www.flickr.com/photos/pitzys_pyx/

Cheers JP

Hi All,

Many thanks for all your hard work at Flitton Moor on Tuesday. We were slightly down on the usual numbers but it didn’t stop you getting a whole lot done! I know David was pleased with the result and in his own words:

Thanks to all those who turned out on Tuesday at Flitton Moor - you did an amazing job as always.

Re fencing: I was expecting at the very most that half of the fence would be completed - and you did 2 thirds of it. Well done. The FoFM will finish it shortly in the new year.

Thanks also to those who manned the fire - and dragged brash to it. Almost all the was cut down was burnt.

And a special mention to the 6 hardy souls who spent the morning digging nettles.

A Merry Christmas to all, and a healthy 2018,

David

Thank you also to Lucinda, Sue and Erika for helping out with refreshments at lunchtime and to Malcolm and Jackie for such a lovely cake.

The next Tuesday task will be at Sandy Smith on the 2nd January and will be doing a bit more thinning/coppicing in the plantation near the bridge over the Flit plus maybe a few other jobs.

But there will also be a task at Maulden Heath next Thursday (28th) if anyone wishes to come along. The task will be clearing brash and regeneration in the Adder Field and, of course, having a fire; meet at the Picnic Area at 10am.

Thanks for all your hard work this year and I hope you all have a lovely Christmas and Happy New Year!

So =Tom= got me hooked on jumping like a crack dealer sucks in his customers with the time proven "the first one is free" routine. Seriously though, I need to give it a bit of a break to let my pinched nerve heal, but it is getting better already, and that's reason enough to jump, isn't it?.

 

Oh, and in this case the bridge is the frame.

Day 201: July 20, 2011. (566)

 

Main street.

Tony Southcotte short story quote TheWritersArena.com

August Alsina returns with his single "Sincerely," a dedication to his three nieces.

 

Another day, another delivery from August Alsina. The R&B singer has been blessing fans with daily drop-offs of new singles in anticipation of his upcoming release, The Product III: stateofEMERGEncy. His latest album is slated to hit streaming services this Friday (June 26), and it's shaping up to be his most introspective and honest project to date.

 

Along with the new singles, August Alsina has also shared episodes from his The Product III: stateofEMERGEncy docuseries. On this latest single, "Sincerely," August pens a letter to his nieces who he has been raising as his own since his sister passed away from cancer in 2018, and their father lost his life to gun violence. In "Sincerely," August Alsina writes a verse to and about each of the girls, and in the chorus, he reiterates his commitment, love, and dedication to them. Stream "Sincerely" by August Alsina and let us know your thoughts.

 

Quotable Lyrics

 

Dear Maya

I know sometimes how you feel overlooked, because you quiet

I used to be the same as you when I was younger

When I was hurt and I would keep it all inside

'Till it burned me up and turned into a fire

It's okay, to tell someone when your heart race

Trust in me, promise that I won't betray.

Photography is the art of observation. It is about finding something interesting in an ordinary place. I have found it has little to do with the things you see and everything to do with the way you see them.
