Monday March 1, 2010 I love that I care a lot about other people even if some people think its a weakness. I love that about me.
Don't talk to the wood. The wood is carved and stained. It can't listen to you anymore no matter how much you want it to. It doesn't understand.
Don't talk to the universe. The universe says its too busy. It can't process you and entertain your meager thoughts when it has to process the stars, and light algorithms.
Your shelf left you three weeks ago. You can't put anything on it anymore because it decided it had its own stories to bind and carry between its rows.
Don't even approach the stone. You're still wiping the blood off your cheek from the last time you tried.
Talking to the grass might work, but only one out of every hundred talk back to you. Even then, the grass is busy and sways about in a way you'll never be able to.
The guitar never did listen when you said a thing to it. It threw notes and chords down your throat and couldn't grasp much after the letter G. It still thinks you're someone you're not.
You could talk to the courtyard. Occasionally the interested come by and leave powdered whispers in your ears. They pose and fix their hair too much to really empathize though.
You can talk to the box. The box listens and sometimes gives good advice back. But, it only opens once every two weeks. When it shuts its lid, its like it doesn't exist.
You should stop talking to binary code. It has a thousand other things to do than to answer your queries and entertain your thoughts. It's just as busy as you are. You should apologize to it for burdening it with so much.
What about the birds? The doves and the bluejay? They are around enough, but they have wings and you do not. You can't leave like they can. You aren't free like they are. You don't know what the wind feels like on your back above the trees.
You talk to lines the most. You feel safe even though you know its only arbitrary. You feel cozy and entrapped at the same time. No one really likes the lines even if they don't say it. You can guess that from the way they talk about them. Straight and curved. You talk and talk and talk to them even though its not good for you.
You make more lines with the lines and nobody likes lines so you try to build them into the cartoon version of your life. Make them have a purpose. Make them form your shapes on the storybook pages.
You're successful for the most part. Sometimes you will want to tell the universe, or the wood. You'll hint to the grass, the box, and birds. You might slip a word to the binary code, your shelf, and the courtyard. Never the guitar or stone. And you'll feel really lonely, except you'll have the lines. There can be as many of them as your like. They all tell you to get rid of the lines. The ones that know you two are friends. The lines are a bad influence. They aren't healthy and are deceptive and only make drawings visible when there's so much more behind the paper.
But how can you give them up? They are so clear. They listen. You know what they do. They will always have time for you. They will always be there to help you explain your world. You've never known of anything else.

GOD is GOOD ... ALL the time
He my Lord and savior, my master and my best friend. His plans are far greater than any that i have. may his will be done. In my weakness today. in my struggle and doubt He had prevailed. How awesome and mighty is our God. How wonderful is He. When i was out of all options when i had no more wisdom when i could no longer stand firm on my own strength He made me strong.
"But he said to me 'My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.' Therefore i will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that CHRIST'S power may rest on me. That is why for Christ's sake, i delight in weakness, in insults, in hardships, in persecutions, in difficulties.FOR WHEN I'M WEAK, HE MAKES ME STRONG."
2 corinthians 12:9-10

Its weaknesses are low-light and macro shots - and I sometimes forget to turn off the VR while using a tripod. Otherwise, this should stay on your camera 90+% of the time. I didn't pay retail for this, I got it from another craigslist user. It is lighter than my old Sigma 24-70mm f/2.8 lens (and prettier).
So if Satan sent a messenger to torment the Apostle Paul, do we think he wouldn't do the same thing to us? We don't know what this thorn in the flesh was, but it was bad enough that Paul ask God to take it away 3 times. Yet it wasn't taken away. He was allowed to suffer for Christ sake, because God's power is made perfect in our weakness.
Interestingly enough, man thinks he is made perfect in his own power and strength. But no, that's not God's way, that's actually counter productive to what God has in mind. In our suffering, we become more dependent on Christ, and less dependent on ourselves. Our dependents rests on Christ and God will be made perfect in us.
Man wants to be independent, not dependent. Whether it's in the strength of our youth, money, position, beauty, whatever it is in our flesh. It doesn't bring about our dependence on the one who did it all for us. He, Jesus said, "he has given us everything we need for life and godliness." and if we have EVERYTHING we need, what more is there? Our Faith and Trust in Jesus to have supplied everything we need. Regardless of what circumstances may be at any given moment.
We can trust Jesus, to sustain us through his power and love. And remember nothing has come upon you but that which is common to man. Other people have been were you are. Just KNOW that God will protect you from all that satan can bring against you, and it will work together for your good if you love God and trust in him and not you're own flesh. It's all Jesus, and to God goes the Glory, not us. God will be made perfect in our weakness, he will make you strong as a result of trusting in him.
Satan comes against our minds more often than not, because as God has said, as a man thinks, so is he. Which is why satan loves to attack our thoughts. And it seems many times at night while we lay on our beds, and we've had a wonderful day in the Lord. He comes and attacks us, and starts messing with our minds, and keeping us from being able to rest and sleep because of the thoughts he puts in our minds. But JOY comes in the morning, and we are sustained by the love and grace of God through it all.
"7 But we have this treasure in jars of clay to show that this all-surpassing power is from God and not from us. 8 We are hard pressed on every side, but not crushed; perplexed, but not in despair; 9 persecuted, but not abandoned; struck down, but not destroyed. 10We always carry around in our body the death of Jesus, so that the life of Jesus may also be revealed in our body. 11 For we who are alive are always being given over to death for Jesus' sake, so that his life may be revealed in our mortal body. 12 So then, death is at work in us, but life is at work in you.
13 It is written: "I believed; therefore I have spoken." With that same spirit of faith we also believe and therefore speak, 14 because we know that the one who raised the Lord Jesus from the dead will also raise us with Jesus and present us with you in his presence. 15 All this is for your benefit, so that the grace that is reaching more and more people may cause thanksgiving to overflow to the glory of God.
16 Therefore we do not lose heart. Though outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day. 17 For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all. 18 So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen. For what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal.(2 Corinthians 4:7-18)
May the Grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be on you all, as you learn to trust in him. You are loved...

Grace and Peace to you from God our Father in the Lord Jesus Christ, FOREVER! Through Faith in Jesus!

Dauntless' keel has was completely opened up in 2005. All the steel washer punching ballast ( a weakness of the design) was removed and replaced with 100% lead shot encpasulated 100% in resin and then re-glassed. At the suggestion of Jerry Montgomery..additional ballast was added to counter the known tenderness of M23's. The centerboard was removed , sandblasted , filled, faired, epoxied, bottom painted, and installed with a new bronze pivot pin, stop pin, pendant, blocks and clutch winch. Around 2010, I , by my own fault, broke the pendant....the centerboard was removed again...pendant replaced, and again new pivot and stop pins installed. The centerboard was in excellent condition. Prior to removing her from her winter slip in March of '13, i scuba dove the boat to clean the bottom and was able to visually inspect the extended centerboard. It is still in excellent condition.

My photo meets the goals of the assignment because there are trees in front of and behind the trains that frame the trains. A strength of my photo is that the photo is both composition and framing because the trains are on the horizontal rule of thirds lines and because the trees framing the trains, and the subject is symmetrically balanced. Another strength is that I removed all distracting elements front the background with the green paper. A weakness of my photo is that the photo looked too dark when I took the photo and the ledge is not solid green, and the lines created from the paper overlapping. The process for taking this photo was getting these two trains and attaching some boxcars to them putting them on some tracks and setting it up to remove distractions.

John F. 'Johnny' Hines (July 25, 1895 – October 24, 1970) was an American actor who had numerous film roles during the silent era, including many starring ones. He appeared in more than 50 films and numerous film shorts. But he did not succeed well in transitioning well into talking pictures.
Born in Golden, Colorado on June 25, 1895, John (known as Johnny) was the third of three Hines brothers: Samuel E. was the oldest and Charles was the second. All three brothers were later active in the film industry, Hines as an actor, Charles as a director primarily during the silent era, and Samuel as a bit-part actor during the early years of sound film. In the early 1910s, Hines attended the City College of New York, although it is unclear whether he obtained his degree. During the early years, many films were produced in New York and New Jersey, before Hollywood, California became a center of filmmaking. Hines made his film debut in 1914, after which he appeared in several shorts and three features; all were silent films. He was first seen in a major supporting part in the feature The Man of the Hour (1914), starring Robert Warwick, directed by Maurice Tourneur, produced by William Brady Pictures, and distributed by World Film. Brady/ World Film had its studio at Fort Lee, New Jersey - the East-Coast center of filmmaking in the 1910s.
Hines remained with Tourneur and Warwick for several films in a row, including Alias Jimmy Valentine (1915). Often these were adaptations of stage plays. After some seven films with Tourneur and Brady as supporting actor, Hines' first starring role was in The Cub (1915), directed by Maurice Tourneur, again based on a stage play, written by Brady himself. Hines continued with Tourneur and Brady in the following years, acting mostly supporting parts, e.g. in World Film's film version of Leo Tolstoy's Zhivoy trup (The Living Corpse), entitled The Weakness of Man (Barry O'Neil, 1916), and in The Dancer's Peril (Travers Vale, 1917) with Brady's daughter Alice in the lead, and referring to the Ballets Russes, then appearing in a show by the Shubert Brothers, major backers of World Film. Hines was co-starring with Marie Dressler in World Film's Tillie Wakes Up (1917), a quasi-sequel to Keystone's Tillie's Punctured Romance (1914).
After over 25 films at World Film in 1914-1918, in 1918 Hines went to California to freelance for companies like moved to Lewis J. Selznick's Select Pictures and Famous Players/ Paramount. In the early 1920s, Hines co-directed two of the films in which he starred: Burn 'Em Up Barnes (George Beranger, Hines, Mastodon Films 1921) and Little Johnny Jones (Arthur Rossin, Hines, Warner Bros. 1923). Hines wrote the screenplay for Conductor 1492 (Warner, 1924), in which he also starred, and his brother, Charles, directed. It would be the start of several silent comedies directed by Charles Hines and starring his brother Johnny, including The Speed Spook (1924), The Crackerjack (1925), The Early Bird (1925), The Live Wire (1925), The Brown Derby (1926), Rainbow Riley (1926), Stepping Along (1926), All Aboard (1927), Home Made (1927), White Pants Willie (1927), Chinatown Charlie (1928), The Wright Idea (1928), etc. - all produced by C.C. Burr Productions, and distributed by East Coast Productions and, afterward, First National. His female co-stars in these years were a.o. Louise Lorraine, Mary Brian, Leila Hyams, and Sigrid Holmquist. Yet, after 1928 Hines had a long break in film acting until 1931, when sound had set in.
During his career of over 10 years of silent pictures, Johnny Hines appeared in almost 50 films, many times in starring roles. Some of his more notable films included the above mentioned Little Johnny Jones, in which he had a title role. It was the first film adaptation of the George M. Cohan musical of the same name. With the advent of sound in the motion picture industry, Hines's career went into decline. The "talkies" called for different skills and not all actors could make the transition. During the 1930s, Hines appeared in only six films, all in smaller, supporting roles. In 1938 he played his last significant film role, that of Parsons in Too Hot to Handle. It starred Clark Gable, Myrna Loy and Walter Pidgeon. He appeared in only one more film, Magnificent Doll (1946), in which he had a bit part while Ginger Rogers and David Niven starred.
Hines died on October 24, 1970, at the age of 75 in Los Angeles, California. He was buried in Calvary Cemetery.

I have a weakness for tong but lup, even thought I'm not a fan of coconut. There's something so satisfying about the crumbs of shrededd coconut, finely chopped peanuts and sugar that coats pieces of diced warm and chewy glutinous rice dough. I love how that sandy sweet texture is such a great juxtaposition against the sticky, bland bubblegum like mochi. Contrasts in flavours, textures and colours are important to me. Tong but lup scores high on this scale. Too bad this one was served on the cold side. Oh well, it was still delicious.

I have a weakness for funky handmade things and house shapes... when they're painted red, I'm really in trouble. So when I saw this hand-built red-painted dollhouse in a flea market, I figured I had to have it. But where to put it? Fortunately, I found a place on top of the shelving that holds shipping supplies at the store. I'll do more to this (wallpaper it with scrapbook paper, maybe?) but wanted to at least take a "Before" picture.

7 years. 7 long, arduous years I’d spent working meticulously to hide my true nature, what I really was, from those around me. And just like that, in a moment of weakness, I let my emotions get the best of me and threw it all away. It was bound to happen at some point I suppose. I’d spent so long trying to cut myself off from the Force, letting the reminders of the teachings I had worked my whole life to master just slip away over time. But in a galaxy under the Empire, a mistake like the one I made means certain death. That’s why I’ve decided to make this holojournal. I’m going to try to detail my thoughts and the explain what has and will happen to me, for whoever may care one day.
I suppose I ought to start from the beginning, give a bit of background on myself. Jericho Chaser. That’s my name. Or it has been for the last 7 years. Before that I was Jerrus Ch’Noa: valiant Knight of the Jedi Order. Heh. I had spent my whole life, 25 years, dedicated to the Order. It was all I knew, all I was. And then that day... that day my whole world collapsed around me. I lost everything... everyone... I even lost a part of myself, in a way. After that, I tried to survive. I traveled from planet to planet, port to port, trying to get by and stay low.
Eventually I settled on the small Outer Rim planet of Nixio. So insignificant it doesn’t even show up on some star charts. The perfect place to lie low. But I came to learn the people of Nixio had a secret. Many of them were part of a group that called themselves The People’s Freedom Coalition. They allowed freedom fighting cells across the galaxy to use Nixio as a stop to stash and run supplies and weapons as they moved throughout the galaxy. It was a perfect plan, and it worked without a hitch for several years. I joined up and helped where I could, using my tool repair shop I had opened to help fix snd repurpose old weapons for the freedom fighters. The leader of our coalition was an old Separatist who had served in the Clone Wars. Everyone simply called him The Colonel, and no one dared to challenge his word. I had my apprehensions about him at first due to his background, but he was no Count Dooku or Viceroy Gunray. He simply wanted a free galaxy, and at this point we had a common enemy in the Empire.
We continued on helping freedom fighters lie low and gather supplies from our small outpost planet, when on one fateful day, a small transport pulled into our city carrying a team of insurgents who had just narrowly escaped an Imperial research base. They had managed to steal schematics to top secret Imperial weaponry that was in the early stages of development, and had come to us looking for a place to lie low. However, it wasn’t more than a few short hours when an Imperial Star Destroyer roared out of hyperspace over Nixio. Almost immediately, TIE bombers screamed down to the surface and dropped a deadly barrage on our city. After the initial bombing, the Empire began to deploy its ground troops. All of the members of the People’s Freedom Coalition scrambled to gather our weapons and set up barricades in the streets. The Colonel barked orders at us as we dashed around in preparation. We had drilled for this dozens of times, but most members of the coalition were simple artisans and shopkeepers with no real military or combat experience. We were all nervous, and most of us seemed to know that this was a somewhat futile fight.
I was outside of a small bar alongside the Colonel when the right began. “Jericho, I need you to stay close to me during the fight,” he had said. “Things will get ugly and I know you’ll have my back.” I swore I would protect him at all costs.
Not long after we heard gunshots ring out. Imperial stormtroopers were pushing on us throughout the city. Our fellow fighters shouted out orders and information about where the enemy was on the comms, however it wasn’t enough. Pretty soon, we saw stormtroopers charging ahead at us. As they sprinted up the stairs towards our barricades, the troopers began to fire their blasters at us. We ducked behind our barricades and tried to return fire, but the Imperials were just too much. The Colonel began shouting for more reinforcements when a stormtrooper with a rotary cannon opened fire. I made a move to return fire myself, when suddenly I saw the Colonel get hit with a barrage of blaster bolts. He fell to the ground with a thud, just as more of my fellow freedom fighters began to be cut down as well.
“NOOOOOOOOOOO!” I shouted.
I felt my blaster fall out of my hand, and when I opened my eyes again, the stormtrooper with the rotary cannon had flown backwards down the stairs, knocking over his fellow troopers. A wave of dread washed over me as what I had just done dawned upon me. All of my work to hide, to bury my connection to the Force and blend in, and I had just thrown it all away in one emotional burst of anger. What had I done? I knew I needed to flee. As much as I wanted to help my fellow fighters, I felt in that moment an overwhelming sense that I needed to protect myself over anyone else. Looking back now, I was weak. I should’ve stayed and fought, tried to help until I couldn’t anymore. That’s what a Jedi would do, what a Jedi ought to do. But I’m not a Jedi anymore am I? I haven’t been a Jedi for 7 years. And that’s why I’m hiding in the forest outside of the city now, trying to figure out what to do next.
The Imperials have captured the city now. No doubt if they haven’t done so already, they’ll execute every last one of the people I’ve come to call my friends. Should I run? I could sneak back to the city and maybe steal I ship. I’ve always been a decent pilot. All I would need to do is beat a few TIE’s and maneuver out of range of the Star Destroyer’s cannons. It’s certainly doable. Heck, I did it before. Not like this, but eerily similar. I ran when the most important person in my life needed me, all those years ago...

Wow! That was a long one. But writing has always been my favorite part of MOC building, haha! It’s been over a year since I built a MOC but I finally found the motivation for something. Hope you like it!
Just because something is over does not mean that we can't look back on a time fondly. It's not a weakness to finish something and not hate a person.
Strength is not moving on and forgetting about and resenting a person. Strength is coming to terms with an end knowing that the world keeps turning whether we like it or not.
That's what makes us who we are.
Everyone you've ever loved and lost in any capacity has shaped you in one way or another.
We grow from pain and heartache and everything else that is thrown at us in life.
I love these photos that in my eyes are so raw with feelings of the greatest time in my 23 years of life. Why wouldn't I share them when to me, they contain such beauty?
As I've grown in my photography I've come to learn that I live and love through the photographs that I take. It's both a blessing and a curse. My only regret is that I didn't share these particular photos earlier when maybe they mattered more.
These photos were made in March 2015 between my home in Blackburn, Manchester and Bangor, Wales.
It was a whirlwind few days. Stressful. And without her, I'm not sure I could have done it.
And I don't say that lightly as I'm used to being alone and having to cope by myself.
I wanted to shoot this natural beauty on black and white film with my old Olympus OM10. The idea being that I wanted to have some tangible, physical memories. Not just something floating around in the digital ether as is most always the case these days.
When you shoot on film you don't just take as many photos as you can and hope at least one of them looks good. You put your faith in every click of those 26 shots that whatever it is that you're looking at is in focus and that the shutter speed is set right and you've got the right aperture for the ISO of the film.
You think about every. Last. Shot.
Every one counts.
When it came to developing the film it was her birthday and I was shaking. One wrong move and the photos would be gone, lost forever.
I thought I'd almost messed up after I accidentally exposed the film whilst pouring out the stop-bath. Thankfully not.
Digital is a godsend in this world of ever-greater immediacy.
However, there's nothing quite like shooting film.

"But he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.”Therefore I will boast all the more gladly of my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may rest upon me." 2 Corinthians 12:9
A few weeks ago I was in a position where I was anxious and had two choices: fret, stress and be totally anxious or pray about my anxiety and the situation I was in. The situation - I was leaving the craft store when my Jeep all of a sudden lost power. Loss of power also meant loss of steering. Thankfully I was still in the parking lot and managed to pull over and restart the Jeep. Hearing the engine start up was music to my ears but then I started to wonder why this happened and if it would happen again. I was instantly freaked out because I wasn't close to home and every route home meant that I had to drive through traffic. I immediately called my husband and told him what happened he told me to start driving it home and if it stops again he'll come get me.
WHAT? You expect me to drive this thing home IN traffic with the possibility of it DYING again and not being able to steer it?
I knew it had to be done because if it was running it was pointless to make him come get me. Here is where I would have driven home but gripping the steering wheel tightly because I'd be a ball of anxiety. But for some reason I started to pray. If you had been in the Jeep with me you would have thought I was crazy because I seriously repeated, "Don't let the Jeep die! But if it does help me to deal with it!" I prayed this prayer out loud half way home until I suddenly felt an overwhelming calmness come over me. Instead of being a basket case all the way home I turned to the Lord and asked Him to get me home. Being able to do this has taken years of practice because this habit of worry has been practiced so much that it has been embedded into my nature.
I know I sound like a broken record when it comes to this thing called worry but for some reason God continues to speak to me about it as He grows me out of the worry habit. True to His ways He led me to another devotional about not worrying. Lets be honest here. Worry is not healthy and I get it. I understand that God is not the author of worry. I understand that worrying is not rational. I understand that it doesn't change a single thing but make me stressed and anxious.
So why do I continue to worry?
To those of you who have a habit of worrying I know you understand where I'm coming from. It is hard to be around people who don't worry because they don't understand. We get questioned, "Worrying doesn't change anything so why do it?" or worse "If your faith was strong enough you wouldn't worry." OUCH!
Why do us worry warts continue to worry?
I don't have an answer to that but I do know that we can continue to be proactive in casting our anxious thoughts at His feet. Each time we do we will feel a little bit stronger and it'll become a little more easier to turn to Him first before we allow our anxious thoughts to take root and multiply.
Trust me . . . they multiply like fluffy dandelion seeds that your kids love to pick and blow all over your lawn to spread and make more dandelions. :-)
Within this devotional about not worrying I came across something new. Something that I know about but something that I didn't associate with worry. This time I learned that God's grace is sufficient. If His grace is sufficient for me that means that no matter how deeply entrenched I am in the habit of worry He will always be there with me.
If you are not a worrier you may not understand why some of us are. It may not be your battle for which I thank the Lord that it isn't. But do understand that even though worry isn't right us worry warts know it. Instead of giving us quick fix answers like an easy solution will cure us why not pray with us and for us?
If you are a worrier you know how hard it is to break this habit. Sometimes you find victory and other times defeat. And when you are defeated you feel guilty that you can't just stop worrying. I am here to tell you to stop beating yourself up over falling victim to your anxious thoughts. This is a habit you worked hard at establishing and will take time defeating. But it can be done through God's help. I believe all He is asking you to do is start making baby steps towards defeating this habit. Build into this worry habit the habit of turning to God as soon as you think those anxious thoughts. Always remember that God's grace is sufficient for you even when you are in the midst of worry.

In an attempt to eliminate his son's "weakness", Heihachi tossed Kazuya down a deep ravine, claiming that if he were truly his son, he'd be able to survive the fall and climb back up. Kazuya survived, but only because he made a deal with the Devil. To further motivate Kazuya, Heihachi adopted Chinese orphan Lee and raised him as a rival to his true son. After Kazuya had traveled abroad and became an undefeated champion, Heihachi announced the King of Iron Fist Tournament in order to test him. Kazuya won the tournament, tossed Heihachi off the same cliff and assumed control of the Zaibatsu. Heihachi survived the event, and returned in the second tournament to defeat his son, and tossed Kazuya's body into a volcano to kill him. Later, he created a military force called the Tekken Force, and fifteen years after the end of the second tournament, in Central Mexico ruins they discovered Ogre, a creature with bloodlust for strong fighters. Seeking to create the ultimate lifeform from the creature, Heihachi took in his grandson Jin Kazama, trained him, and four years later announced the third Iron Fist tournament as bait. Ogre arrived and was defeated by Jin, only for Heihachi to in turn betray and attempt to kill him. Jin survived, transformed into a demon, attacked Heihachi and flew away.
Afterwards, Heihachi attempted to combine his own DNA with that of Ogre, but discovered that he would need the Devil Gene as a catalyst, held by both his son and Jin. Unable to find Jin, Heihachi learned Kazuya had been resurrected by G Corporation, a rival company. To lure both to him, he held the fourth King of Iron Fist Tournament with his very company's ownership as the grand prize. After the Tekken Force captured Jin upon arrival, Heihachi faced Kazuya in the finals. Heihachi defeated Kazuya,[3] and led him to his Hon-Maru compound, where Jin was being held captive so they could fight. However Jin was able to defeat both, assumed his demon form and almost killed Heihachi. Stopped by a vision of his mother, Jin instead left, telling Heihachi he owed his life to her, flying through the compound's roof.
Immediately after Jin's departure, an army of Jack-4s built and sent by G Corporation invaded Hon-Maru. Heihachi fought together against them with Kazuya, but Kazuya betrayed and threw his father to the Jack-4s, using the diversion to escape. The Jack-4s piled onto Heihachi and one self-destructed, destroying Hon-Maru and seemingly killing Heihachi. However the blast had instead thrown him for several miles where he remained unconscious for the duration of the fifth tournament. Upon waking up, he made his way back to the Zaibatsu headquarters only for troops to block his path and to learn Jin had taken over the company. As a result he enters the sixth tournament in order to recover control of his company.
My strength and weakness.
A mother is the truest friend we have, when trials heavy and sudden, fall upon us; when adversity takes the place of prosperity; when friends who rejoice with us in our sunshine desert us; when trouble thickens around us, still will she cling to us, and endeavor by her kind precepts and counsels to dissipate the clouds of darkness, and cause peace to return to our hearts. ~ Washington Irving

don't wanna let you down
i've been lucky I was lost; now I'm found
sometimes I get the shallow feeling that you like.
that you're hurt, don't change a thing.
because my weakness is none of your business,
but bad will always collect to one big melting pot.

I have a weakness for the beauty of the old advertisements that were painted on the side of buildings so long ago. Even if today the buildings have survived the bulldozers, the signs are often painted over. If the buildings are restored, they are often 'cleansed' away. Enjoy the image and go out and document the ones in your neighbourhood and destinations.
Pétur Ben, musician.
His debut album, Wine For My Weakness, is my favorite album of the year. His music is the greatest, check him out.
From www.icelandairwaves.com:
Pétur Ben Benediktsson has all the qualities of a true star going the extra mile to do music you can't escape. As a talented musician, a gifted songwriter and an excellent guitar player Pétur has earned his reputation in Iceland. Alone or with his band Pétur draws the obvious resemblance to true greats and more alike playing melancholic pop or a joyful rock song. Pétur has also made a name for himself for arranging music for others, for example Mugison, Slowblow, Telepathetics and many other Icelandic artists. Last year he also got the lucky break to complete the arrangement of Nick Cave's score for the production of Woyzeck.
Pétur is by the way very much involved with theatre and movies. He composed the musical scores for two productions at the Reykjavík City Theatre last year; Strindberg's "A Dream Play" and Bulgakov's "Fatal Eggs", the latter of which was a collaborative effort with Höskuldur Ólafsson formerly a member in Quarashi. Pétur is currently working on his second project with Vesturport Theatre as well as the scores to the movies "Börn" (Children) and "Foreldrar" (Parents) directed by Ragnar Bragason.
Wine For My Weakness, Pétur's debut album released by 12 Tónar in the last days of August, has been long awaited and for once the waiting was worth it.
One basic weakness in a conservation system based wholly on economic motives is that most members of the land community have no economic value. Wildflowers and songbird are examples. Of the 22,000 higher plants and animals native to Wisconsin, it is doubtful whether more than 5 per cent can be sold, fed, eaten, or otherwise put to economic use Yet these creatures are members of the biotic community, and if (as I believe) its stability depends on its integrity they are entitled to continuance.
When one of these non-economic categories is threatened and if we happen to love it, we invent subterfuges to give it economic importance. At the beginning of the century song birds were supposed to be disappearing. Ornithologists jumped to the rescue with some distinctly shaky evidence the effect that insects would eat us up if birds failed to control them. The evidence had to be economic in order to b valid.
It is painful to read these circumlocutions today. We have no land ethic yet, but we have at least drawn nearer the point of admitting that birds should continue as a matter of biotic right, regardless of the presence or absence of economic advantage to us.
A parallel situation exists in respect of predatory mammals, raptorial birds, and fish-eating birds. Time was when biologists somewhat overworked the evidence that these creatures preserve the health of game by killing weaklings or that they control rodents for the farmer, or that they prey only on 'worthless' species. Here again, the evidence had to be economic in order to be valid. It is only in recent years that we hear the more honest argument that predators are members of the community, and that no special interest has the right to exterminate them for the sake of a benefit, real or fancied, to itself. Unfortunately this enlightened view still in the talk stage. In the field the extermination o predators goes merrily on: witness the impending erasure of the timber wolf by fiat of Congress, the Conservation Bureaus, and many state legislatures.
