I was surprised how well built this bag was for a $25.00 bag, I don't know much about UTG, their is so much junk out there, its hard to tell what your going to get. So far this seems worth the money.
Jack Hemingway died in 2000 in New York aged 77, was the eldest son of the novelist Ernest Hemingway and bore a striking resemblance to his father. However, despite having grown up under the shadow of a famous writer, and hunter, Jack carved out a life which reversed some of the values of his distant, disengaged father.
He had long been his family's emissary, attending conferences, sitting on the advisory board of the Hemingway Foundation and, with courtesy and good humor, welcoming visitors to the family home at Ketchum, Idaho, with its breathtaking view across Sun Valley. Visitors admired the rich horde of family memorabilia - Hemingway's typewriter, a trunk which had been with the writer in Paris in the 1920s and a handsome fake Picasso hanging in the bedroom - before adjourning to the Olympic bar, one of Papa's favorite hangouts in Ketchum.
But his greatest love was fly fishing and the outdoor life, and after his father's suicide in 1961, he settled in Ketchum. Growing increasingly interested in the problem of conserving Idaho wildlife and environment, he became a persuasive advocate for enlightened policies in a state famed for its hunting and fishing.
Hemingway served as a commissioner on the Idaho Fish and Game Commission from 1971 to 1977 and was instrumental in the adoption of a "catch and release" law, which did much to preserve trout stocks while those in neighboring states declined.
He was born in Toronto, an easy birth made even more congenial when his mother, Hadley, his father's first wife, was given laughing gas ("Hadley says the whole childbirth business has been greatly over-rated," Hemingway wrote to Gertrude Stein, who became Jack's godmother). Nicknamed "Bumby", Jack spent his early years in Paris and the Austrian Alps. These years are described in A Moveable Feast, Hemingway's autobiography, published in 1964. The book ends with a description of Hadley greeting him at the train station, smiling, "her lovely face tanned by the snow and the sun", and Bumby at her side, "blond and chunky and with winter cheeks looking like a good Voralberg boy." Hemingway had just decided to abandon his wife and child.
Jack was five when his parents divorced. Sent to boarding schools, he only saw his father during summer vacations. As he grew up, they went fishing together and boxed. When Hemingway was too busy at work on a novel, he paid for Jack to stay at a dude ranch in Montana. Sending his love, Hemingway promised to bring his son ammunition for his rifle and asked if he should order some pistol cartridges, too. As a teenager, they drank frozen daiquiris together and spent time in Pamplona and Havana. After attending the University of Montana and Dartmouth College, Jack dropped out before taking his degree and enlisted in the US Army. He served in a military police detachment in North Africa and then, with certain strings pulled by influential family friends, was assigned to the Office of Strategic Services.
With the rank of captain, he was parachuted into Nazi-occupied France on a mission to assist the resistance. He took with him a rod, reel and fly box. On a later mission in November 1944, he was shot in the arm and shoulder and taken prisoner. He spent the rest of the war in a PoW camp. With a fine war record, "a nice set of visible scars" and the Croix de Guerre awarded by the French government, relations between novelist and son improved.
After the war, Jack Hemingway continued his army career as a security officer in Berlin, and as liaison officer to the Third French Army Corps in Freiburg. After serving on the staff of a special intelligence course at Fort Bragg in North Carolina, Jack left the army. The transition to civilian life was difficult. He had a brief career as a stockbroker and then as a salesman of fishing supplies.
After Ernest's death, Jack was the family member most at ease with the growing public interest in the family. He explored his relations with his father in a 1986 memoir, Misadventures of a Fly Fisherman: My Life With and Without Papa. Before his death, he had completed the manuscript of an as yet unpublished second volume of autobiography, A Life Worth Living, and was working on a volume of reminiscences, recipes, and tales of travel, with his second wife, Angela Hovey, who survives him.
His first wife, Byra, or Puck whom he married in Paris in 1949, died in 1986. They had three daughters: Joan, Margaux, who died of a barbiturate overdose in 1996, and Hadley (Mariel), the actress.

In 1868, four Irish Christian brothers, P.A. Treacy, D.F. Bodkin, J.B. Lynch and P.J. Nolan, arrived in Melbourne to open a new Christian school in the booming, and somewhat wild, city at the behest of Bishop Gould. They began teaching in 1869 in a small rented primary school behind St. Francis’ Church in Lonsdale Street. However, they really wanted something more permanent than the rented school they had, and they also wished to have a monastery in which to reside, rather than the rented rooms in Fitzroy that they had taken as a temporary measure.
With help from the Irish Catholic Church, they acquired a parcel of land along the wide boulevard of Victoria Parade in East Melbourne. In 1871 their dreams were realised when a new bluestone college was blessed by Bishop Gould in the presence of the venerable Archbishop of Sydney, the Archbishop Polding. They called their new school Parade College, after the name of the street it was built on, and dedicated it to Mary Immaculate.
The building is an imposing three storey bluestone structure that was built to the designs of Melbourne architect William Wilkinson Wardell (1823 – 1899), who also designed the nearby St. Patrick’s Cathedral. The building has been designed in the popular Victorian Gothic style, a mostly ecclesiastical architectural style. It features gothic style windows on the Victoria Parade facade, and a double storey verandah of cast iron on the rear of the building, which when it was built, would have taken in beautiful views of the nearby Fitzroy Gardens and the burgeoning city beyond it. The building also included a beautiful chapel on the third floor, accessed via a stairwell that was also designed in the Gothic style. The chapel is small; however it makes up in beauty what it lacks in size, with a vaulted pressed metal ceiling and beautiful stained glass windows.
On the school’s first day, more than one hundred boys were enrolled and the number increased steadily as accommodation became available. As time went on, more Brothers arrived at Parade College from Ireland, and so the number of boys attending the school could increase. In 1902 the school building was extended yet again and finally completed William Wardell’s original designs. It is this building that we see today. This building was affectionately known as the "Old Bluestone Pile" and the school’s song takes its name from this building.
Gothic architecture was perceived by the pious Victorians as an expression of religious, and therefore, moral values, and this may be the reason why architects preferred to build schools in this style throughout the Nineteenth Century. Its revival was seen as virtuous and equated with moral revival; the perfect environment in which to educate young minds. For this reason an ecclesiastical character was predominant even on buildings that were not necessarily religious.
In 1999 after being located in Clayton for 25 years, the Catholic Theological College moved into the former Parade College building (which had been sold in 1994) alongside which it built a new modern building designed by Gregory Burgess.
William Wilkinson Wardell was a civil engineer and architect born in England. He studied under Gothic architect Augustus Pugin, who became his friend as well as his mentor. Between 1846 and 1858 he designed over thirty churches in England, which was a very prodigious output, and he had a flourishing business. Some of the churches he designed include: St Birinus, Bridge End, Dorchester-on-Thames which was worked on between 1846 and 1849, and Greenwich’s Our Lady Star of the Sea which was worked on between 1846 and 1851. By 1858, Mr. Wardell’s health was suffering and his doctors felt that the warmer climate afforded by Australia might be more beneficial to his health. Therefore he, his wife Lucy, his two sons and daughter migrated after Mr. Wardell obtained the position of "Government Architect" to the city of Melbourne. In Melbourne he is known for designing the first St Mary’s Church in East St Kilda in 1859 and the second in 1897, Government House Melbourne in 1876, the ANZ Gothic bank in Collins Street in 1877, and St Patrick’s Cathedral which was completed in 1897 but was still being modified by Mr. Wardell at the time of his death. He is also known in Sydney for designing, the ASN Co. Building in 1884, St John’s College at the University of Sydney, which was completed after a breakdown in relations between the architect and the Sydney City Council, and St Mary’s Cathedral which was not completed until after his death. Mr. Wardell died at his home, “Upton Grange” in North Sydney in November 1899 of heart failure and pleurisy, but left behind a rich legacy in Australia, not only of the commercial and ecclesiastical buildings that he created, but for the numerous private houses and mansions that he designed.
1) This image investigates value. Value is reflected in the composition of this image within the shades of the clouds.
2) The subject matter of the photograph is the sky.
3) The most visually striking aspect of the photo is the clouds. This is because the blend different hues of purple, blue, and white which is aesthetically pleasing. Also, the clouds take uo most of the picture.
4) If I were to take this photograph again, I would walk to the end of the dock so that only the sky and water are visible. I would also angle it so that half the photo is of the sky, and the other half of the clouds.

Fractal Production of Value: Transitioning From Real to Digital Value Structures
WATCH OUT! The value epidemic is here.
Note: I wrote this at some point in college and just recently found it while on the plane to MIT. It was first called “A Brief on Internet Architectures”. It was originally meant to be a sort of white paper on value creation online.
I miss this way of thinking. There will only be more like this. Better sourcing to appear soon. A short bibliography is thus:
Baudrillard’s “After the Orgy” was the basis of this article.
