I bought this AMAZING black haori today! My friend sells kimono and she's had this piece on hold for me for quite awhile. She told me she had to fend off other rabid customers because it is a very impressive piece! I finally picked it up today and am very pleased with my purchase. :)

I wanted a landscape scroll as well as a calligraphy one. This one is painted on silk. Another excellent description: This hanging scroll was drawn about 80 years ago. The lake, the building, and the bridge are drawn. A painter does not understand. But. Anyway, this is the Japanese painting drawn seriously. I think that it is immediately hung since the condition is comparatively good.
This cost me $27.01.
someone printed out the the very long list... of Bush Administration lies, waste and scandals that have led to the deaths of civilians and soldiers.
Uploaded in memory of Gordon Gentle, a Scottish soldier killed in Iraq on 28 June 2004. He was 19 years old and he`d joined the Army just six months earlier at his local Job Centre in a deprived area of Glasgow city.
Today, Sunday 23rd December 2007, would have been Gordon's 23rd birthday.

This article from the Belfast Telegraph puts it well:
"The neo-con gang which manoeuvred the US into the war, with Blair dragging Britain along in their wake, are almost all gone. Karl Rove, Donald Rumsfeld, Richard Perle, Scooter Libby, Paul Wolfowitz, Alberto Gonzalez, all gone, some in disgrace, none to their graves.
Dying is for people like Rose Gentle's son, for fresh-faced young men drawn disproportionately from the poor, flung ill-trained and ill-equipped into battle to take bullets for Bush and Blair. "

Wonderful set of slides of scrolls prepared for the Star Mangled Spanner event at Hammerhold in AS-XVI, early 1980's
Drawn bySteve Cooper and with calligrphy by a partner - these whimsical and humeorous scrolls are quite different from the more formal presentations seen today. The initials of the artists are with their SCA names.
I also like it when I know both the person who created said scroll (On the left) and the person who received said scroll.
“The Ripley Scroll or “Ripley Scrowle” is one of the most important works (books) of Sir George Ripley, the alchemist. It is interesting to note that a Papal Decree of 1317 had forbidden the study into and publishing of alchemical texts and particularly forbade “clerics” from pursuing this subject and yet a little over a hundred years later Ripley seems to have dedicated his life to the pursuit of this science. The Ripley Scroll has been interpreted in many ways but still remains a mystery. Most scholars believe that the Ripley Scroll is the “recipe” for immortality but there are those that believe researchers have missed some crucial evidence. This mystery needs to be examined in much more depth in another section of this website. Perhaps Ripley may have known much, much more than seems obvious.”
Rabbi Martha Bergadine with Torahs rescued from New Orleans synagogues and taken to Beth Shalom Synagogue in Baton Rouge. I was at Sabbath services on Saturday, Sept. 11, at Beth Shalom and wondered where the rabbis were -- Rabbi Bergadine's husband, Rabbi Stanton Zamek, is the leader of the synagogue. She's executive director of the Baton Rouge Jewish Federation. Officials with the New Orleans and Baton Rouge federations, escorted by deputy sheriffs from Baton Rouge, rounded up the Torahs from Reform and Conservative synagogues that morning and drove them back to Baton Rouge. They showed up right after services were over. The Torahs followed several forays by federation members and off-duty deputy sheriffs in search of Jewish residents who had been reported missing. In more than half the cases, the reported people weren't there, but other, non-Jewish flood victims were rescued and taken to safety. Many of the Torah scrolls were taken to Houston, and later returned to their congregations. Two weeks after the Torah rescue, rainfall from Hurricane Rita collapsed the roof at Beth Shalom, flooding its sanctuary and most of its building. Its Torahs were not damaged.
