Last week, we shared a video that introduced you to P. Allen Smith's Garden Home Retreat. Today we continue that exploration with a video from Smith in which he explains his home's approach to sustainability. It's a mix of traditional and newer building techniques — he's done things like positioning the house with consideration for the sun's angles and including a sophisticated, energy-efficient in-floor heating system.
When P. Allen Smith designed the Garden Home Retreat, he wanted it to be as energy-efficient and "green" as possible. That includes positioning the home to take advantage of shade, collecting rainwater for irrigating the garden, using energy-efficient appliances and windows, and more. Watch the short video above for more, or check out our YouTube channel for other videos from Smith.

Franklin Van Valkenburgh was born in Minneapolis, Minnesota, on 5 April 1888. Appointed a Midshipman in 1905, he graduated from the U.S. Naval Academy in June 1909. His initial service was in battleships, punctuated by a tour with the Asiatic Squadron in 1911-14. He received postgraduate education in the field of steam engineering and was Engineering Officer of the battleship Rhode Island during the First World War. Van Valkenburgh was twice an instructor at the Naval Academy during the late 'Teens and in the 'Twenties, and also served in the battleships Minnesota and Maryland during that time. Following promotion to the rank of Commander, he was assigned to the Office of the Chief of Naval Operations, in Washington, D.C., during 1928-31
In the early 1930s, Commander Van Valkenburgh commanded the destroyer Talbot and Destroyer Squadron Five. He was a student at the Naval War College and inspector of naval materiel at the New York Navy Yard before again serving at sea as Commanding Officer of the destroyer tender Melville in 1936-38. Captain Van Valkenburg then spent a tour ashore with the Third Naval District and, in February 1941 became Commanding Officer of the battleship Arizona. He was killed in action when his ship exploded and sank during the 7 December 1941 Japanese Attack on Pearl Harbor. For his "conspicuous devotion to duty and extraordinary courage" at that time, he was posthumously awarded the Medal of Honor.
The destroyer USS Van Valkenburgh (DD-656), 1944-1967, was named in honor of Captain Van Valkenburgh.

Fishbowl Spaceship to give tourists a breathtaking 360-degree view
The visionaries at Armadillo Aerospace have some big ideas. The most outrageous is this "Fishbowl Spaceship," giving two passengers a spectacular 360-degree view of suborbital space. The company, founded by iD software (Doom, Quake) chief John Carmack, plans to build this far-fetched space bubble next year, aiming to start its first suborbital flights a year later. The company says a ticket on this wild ride will cost you a relatively cheap $100,000.
How can such a bubble survive re-entry? We're thinking this must be a collapsible dome of some sort. Meanwhile, the consumer space race goes on, with all sorts of ambitious ideas springing forth. Add this one to that single-passenger micro-spacecraft we showed you last week, SpaceX's private space flight, and Richard Branson's SpaceShipTwo, and one day soon, space tourism will be commonplace.

Nitrous Small Block Ford Mustang Vs. The World
Little is know about this nitrous-huffing small-block Ford (SBF) powered Fox-body other than it's here to roll heads. Seriously, in a day and age of Coyote and even GM LS swaps it's nice to see some good ol' SBF power getting it done at the track. True, he doesn't win every race in the video, but he does get his fair share of kills and doesn't go down without a fight. There's also something to be said for how hard it yanks the wheels and just how wicked it looks! Enjoy!

NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- Just when it was looking like a weak third-quarter earnings season had the potential to be a non-issue for stocks, Google's (GOOG) surprise (in more ways than one) miss comes along and spoils the party.
The equity market doesn't like to be caught off-guard as Thursday's market reaction attests. Expectations for the quarter are low but that's been gradually factored into perceptions, creating less risk when the actual numbers hit the tape. Individual stocks may get whacked or lauded but the broad market is supposed to, in general, take such basic company news as an earnings report in stride.
Google, though, disrupted all that on Thursday with its errant, awful report, sending all three major equity indices lower.
It's a good reminder. These last few months of the year have choppy written all over them. Last week saw one pullback after another. This week's been the opposite and there's hasn't been a strong catalyst for going either way. The waiting game over in Europe has been an influence as well with traders wondering when Spain will ask for the aid that everyone else is convinced it needs.That's why the outcome of the summit of European Union leaders in Brussels Thursday and Friday is looming large tomorrow. If this confab yields more nothing and earnings continue to be hit-and-miss, nagging doubts about stocks at these levels will only increase. One datapoint showing growing bearishness arrived Thursday night in the form of the American Association of Individual Investors's weekly sentiment survey. Those identifying themselves as bearish, defined by what direction they expect the stock market to head in over the six months, swelled 5.7% percentage points to 44.5%, the highest reading since 45.7% in the week ended June 7. The bull camp clocked in at 28.7%, down 1.9 percentage points, while those feeling neutral came in at 26.8%, down 3.8 percentage points. The AAII polls its roughly 150,000 members each week but doesn't disclose exactly how many participate in the survey. Then again, traditional market wisdom says this is a contrarian indicator, that it's bullish for stocks when the retail investor gets overly bearish. So maybe stocks are getting ready to take off. The action in the bond market is certainly pointing that way. That's why trading could get extremely choppy from here. The story changes everyday. There are still a lot of unknowns out there -- the presidential election, Spain's fate, the resolution (or not) of the fiscal cliff -- factors that are difficult to invest ahead of because nothing will happen until it happens. And what actually happens is all that matters.

I cannot believe how ridiculous Ron can be sometimes. Apparently, he thinks Crookshanks ate Scabbers, just because he's missing and he found a few ginger-coloured hairs on his sheets. For all he knows, those hairs could have been there since Christmas. I brought Crookshanks into his dormitory then, right? But whatever it is, it's not solid evidence that my cat ate Scabbers. I don't think he'd even consider doing something so animalistic. I mean, he's so docile and gentle most of the time! It's just that Ron's always had something against him. I don't see why he has to be so stubborn all the time.

David Ward's punishment? Work with the Jews...
David Ward's slap on the wrist is an insult to all of those who work for peace in the region and at home
Nick Clegg has failed to take the appropriate action against the now notorious David Ward MP, whose comments about 'the Jews' and the Holocaust on the eve of Holocaust Memorial Day rightly provoked anger from across the political spectrum.
Ward met with Nick Clegg, Simon Hughes and Liberal Democrat Chief Whip Alistair Carmichael last night, where it was concluded that in future, for Ward to couch his language correctly, he would seek the advice of the Liberal Democrat Friends of Israel group - an internal lobby group made up of a handful of members.
Here is the letter to Ward from last night's meeting:

|Vine + Table: Jean-Roberts Table
Vine + Table: Jean-Robert's Table
The $14 French Lunch Tray at Jean-Robert's Table adds some chic to your work week. Keep reading if you're ready to leave the brown bag at home.
If Jean Robert invited you to his Table for lunch, would you go? Of course you would, especially when he's serving a gourmet four-course meal for only $14. The French Lunch Tray available at Jean-Robert's Table is Jean-Roberts way to add a bit of tres chic to your work week. And this new lunch option is one that will have you reconsidering ever packing again.
The renowned chef de-cuisine puts his magical touch on your lunch hour (or 1/2 hour) with a gourmet meal that takes only minutes to arrive. Lunch will never be the same after savoring tray items such as Salmon Mimosa Salad, Carrot, Cucumber and Romaine Lettuce with Lemon Dressing, Soup du Jour, Roasted and Confit Duck Leg, Spinach, Mushrooms And Bleu Cheese with Sautéed Red Potatoes and - not done yet - a bite-sized dessert, such as the White Chocolate Mousse and Flourless Dark Chocolate Cake. The French Lunch Tray menu changes weekly and is only available at the bar for a limited time.
I can hear you say it now, "I don't have time for lunch at Jean-Roberts." I promise you that it only took less than seven quick minutes from the time I ordered, for my tray to arrive. Perhaps you have another concern, such as "That sounds like a lot of food for lunch." In French fashion, the servings are the perfect amount, bite-size variety with big flavors - just enough to satisfy the appetite of any hungry downtowner. While it's unlikely that you'll go into a food coma, a post-lunch jolt of French Press coffee never hurt anyone.
I experienced the French Lunch Tray with a friend and fellow PR-foodie, Amy Hunter of King Street Consulting. She also happens to be Jean-Robert's sanguine publicist. Together, we oohed and ahhed, mmmed and WOWed over our well-portioned meals. I'm most certain we sounded like food junkies, but then so did everyone else at the bar, including chef and businessman Paul Sturkey, who dropped in for a quick bite, and a group of fashionable business men and women who had a European mystique all their own.
It's one of those places where you'll likely run into someone you know. It's also a great place to bring clients for lunch, or beautiful people watching, if you're dining solo.
Amy and I took our sweet time, toasting cold glasses of Pinot Gris, greeting passerbys and relishing over our affordable afternoon.
The four for $14 French Lunch Tray at the Bar is available for a limited time and only at the bar. No substitutions and excludes beverage, tax and gratuity. Reservations not required. Jean-Robert's Table is open for lunch Monday through Friday from 11:30 a.m. to 2 p.m.

The Israeli army has disciplined two high-ranking officers for firing artillery shells at populated areas during the Gaza offensive last year, according to local media.
The Haaretz newspaper website said on Monday that a military inquiry concluded that a division commander and a brigade commander endangered human life by firing highly incendiary weapons towards a compound run by a UN aid agency.
But the Israeli military spokesman's office said the army had reprimanded Brigadier General Eyal Eisenberg and Brigade Commander Ilan Malka for using artillery in built-up areas - and not for using white phosphorous weapons.
"With respect to exploding munitions containing white phosphorous, the Military Advocate General concluded that the use of this weapon in the operation was consistent with Israel's obligations under international law", the military office statement said.
However, the army does not dispute that white phosphorous was used in Gaza and has submitted its report to the UN.
Severe burns
Many human rights organisations had accused the Israeli army of illegally using phosphorous munitions, which caused severe burned injuries among the Palestinian population.
However, the Israeli army justified its actions by saying that similar shells were in use by other Western armies and that the munitions were used in remote locations in the Gaza Strip.
Gaza's phosphorus legacy UN releases Gaza attack photos War crimes convictions after Gaza? Timeline: Gaza crisis Video: Gaza speaks out on white phosphorus use
Al Jazeera's Jacky Rowland reporting from Jerusalem, said: "We must stress that the Israeli army is investigating itself. This is not in anyway an independent inquiry.
"When you bear in mind that a number of human rights groups identified what they described as a systematic, random and wide-ranging use of the chemical, the Israeli report just focuses on this one incident and two individuals being disciplined.
"But we have seen pictures from Gaza that hundreds of people were burned by white phosphorus during that military campaign a year ago. It seems that just this one isolated incident is being focused on in the Israeli investigation."
The development comes as a deadline looms for Ban Ki-moon, the UN secretary-general, to address the General Assembly with his own report on Gaza.
The occupied Palestinian territory has a high population density and limited land access.
Committees formed
With the conclusion of the Gaza offensive, dubbed Operation Cast Lead, Gabi Ashkenazi, the Israeli army chief, ordered the convening of five special investigative committees, Israel's report to the UN said.
One of the committees examined the use of phosphorus shells.
The members noted in their findings that the two army officers, in approving the firing of phosphorus shells, were guilty of "exceeding their authority in a manner that jeopardised the lives of others".
Gideon Levy, a Haaretz political analyst, told Al Jazeera: "This is the first time that Israel has admitted it did something wrong. This by itself is a progressive step.
"Without international pressure, the [Israeli army] would have not carried out investigations, but I guess the world will not be satisifed with this very minor step."
Goldstone findings
The Goldstone report, requested by the Geneva-based UN Human Rights Council, was put together by an expert panel headed by Richard Goldstone, a South African jurist.
Video: Interview with Richard Goldstone Timeline: Gaza War Analysis: War crimes in Gaza? Goldstone's full report to the UN rights council Key points of the Goldstone report UN inquiry finds Gaza war crimes 'Half of Gaza war dead civilians' PLO: History of a Revolution 'Israel has to be accountable'Al Jazeera is not responsible for external websites' content
Initially, Israel refused to co-operate with Goldstone and angrily rejected his findings.
But after the General Assembly urged in November both Israel and the Palestinians to investigate Goldstone's charges, Israel decided it would provide Ban with information on the Gaza offensive.
Yigal Palmor, the Israeli foreign ministry spokesman, said the country's response, defends Israel's investigations of its offensive, but does not address the international body's main demand - the creation of an independent commission of inquiry.
"The decision to establish a commission of inquiry must be made by Benjamin Netanyahu, the Israeli prime minister, he said.
Israel's report to the UN says that the convening of a sixth committee has been set up to examine additional allegations made against the Israeli army.
So far, Israel's military says, it has investigated about 150 incidents that took place during the fighting.
At least 29 investigations are ongoing, the military said, and one soldier has been convicted of misconduct.

next steps
Posted by Barry Silverstein on December 30, 2009 07:09 AM
Today, millions of DVDs in bright red Netflix envelopes flood US mailboxes, but that may change in the near future. Netflix, the nation's largest DVD rental-by-mail service, is now approaching movie studios directly to gain access to digital versions of films.The move comes amidst a rapidly changing world of digital distribution that is affecting not just movies, but television, music, and traditional print publications. Netflix, along with traditional DVD rental stores such as Blockbuster, faces the reality that consumers are increasingly going online for entertainment.Netflix isn't waiting to become obsolete; instead, the company is aggressively reinventing its brand. Netflix already offers online movies for instant viewing on computers, as well as the ability to download movies to a TV set-top box. More than 40 percent of the company's 11 million subscribers take advantage of instant viewing. In the past, Netflix worked around digital movie rights through an agreement with a pay-TV network, but now, Netflix needs fast access to new films for streaming. That means Netflix will be negotiating with studios directly. The strategy could be risky, putting Netflix in competition with cable television operators and even some movie studios said to be developing their own digital distribution.Netflix CEO Reed Hastings hopes to sell the idea with a compelling argument -- that Netflix will "pay studios more" as online viewing replaces DVDs. "We'll become one of the networks' and studios' largest revenue generators," says Hastings.
But will the adjustments by Netflix be enough to capture the changing home viewer market?

Steve Nash, Like Others, Sports Awful 90′s Haircut in New NBA Promo
Using the same approach as the Amar'e Stoudemire spot, Park Pictures, Bicoastal/London director Chris Sargent and Goodby, Silverstein & Partners, Worldwide go back to the future, so to speak, to a Canadian gym in 1996. Here, a young Steve Nash shoots hoops with a boy claiming to be from the future. The time traveler tries to convince Nash that he's a future NBA star by listing what would eventually be the Phoenix Suns guard's accomplishments. We're guessing Doc Brown and the delorean are parked right outside. Great Scott! Credits after the jump.

Ethics rules generally prohibit an attorney in a matrimonial case from revealing her client's admission that the client has been reading his spouse's email messages with opposing counsel, unless the lawyer knows that such conduct is criminal or fraudulent, the New York State bar's ethics committee advised Nov. 7 (New York State Bar Ass'n Comm. on Professional Ethics, Op. 945, 11/7/12).
The committee stressed that its advice was tailored to address the facts of a narrow inquiry, which indicated that "Although the client has not provided the spouse's lawyer-client e-mails or disclosed their contents to the lawyer, the client may be using knowledge of their contents in making decisions about the litigation."
The committee said the lawyer may be ethically required to disclose what she knows--but only if "the client's conduct in reading the [emails] rises to the level of a crime or fraud," or if the law beyond professional conduct standards requires disclosure.
Ultimately, the committee concluded that the attorney's knowledge regarding the email interceptions is confidential information under New York Rule of Professional Conduct 1.6(a). Accordingly, it said the lawyer "should admonish the client to refrain from this conduct" but should not disclose what the client is doing "absent an exception to the general duty to preserve a client's confidential information."
"If the inquirer reasonably believes that disclosure is necessary to comply with applicable judicial decisions, such disclosure is permitted by Rule 1.6(b)(6)."New York State Ethics Op. 945
"The extent of any court-established disclosure obligations and whether they apply to the inquirer's situation is a question of law that this Committee lacks jurisdiction to answer," the panel explained.
"If the inquirer reasonably believes that disclosure is necessary to comply with applicable judicial decisions, such disclosure is permitted by Rule 1.6(b)(6)," it added, citing an exception to the confidentiality rule that permits disclosures "when permitted or required under these Rules or to comply with other law or court order."
The rule may not apply even if the lawyer had "received" the emails, the committee added. The committee cited two ABA ethics opinions which, it said, suggest that Rule 4.4(b) would not apply "because the e-mails, although wrongly obtained by the lawyer's client, have not been 'inadvertently sent.'" ABA Formal Ethics Op. 11-460, 27 Law. Man. Prof. Conduct 543 (2011); ABA Formal Ethics Op. 06-440, 22 Law. Man. Prof. Conduct 358 (2006).
"Although the client may have engaged in conduct prejudicial to the administration of justice, the lawyer has not done so," the panel said, because the lawyer "has not received the e-mails and is not in a position to use them."
That fact, the committee said, distinguished the inquirer's situation from the one discussed in New York City Ethics Op. 1989-1 (1989), which considered a scenario in which a client provided an attorney with intercepted "written communications" between the client's spouse and the spouse's counsel.
That opinion concluded that the lawyer would be obligated to notify the opposing party that he possessed the communications even if the lawyer did not intend to use them. The information conferred an advantage that should not be retained "without the opposing party's awareness," the opinion explained.
That competing duty comes from Rule 3.3(b), which states that attorneys must take "reasonable remedial measures, including, if necessary, disclosure to the tribunal," if they become aware that a client or other person intends to engage in criminal or fraudulent conduct in relation to a proceeding. Rule 3.3(c) stipulates that this duty applies "even if compliance requires disclosure of information otherwise protected by Rule 1.6."
The committee did not directly opine on the applicability of these "crime-fraud exceptions," however. "Because this Committee interprets only the Rules of Professional Conduct and not other law, we do not express an opinion whether the client's conduct in reading the spouse's lawyer-client e-mail communications rises to the level of a crime or fraud," it said.
But the committee suggested that the "reasonable remedial measures" Rule 3.3 requires may not "necessarily include disclosure of client confidences." Because the inquirer here had not gained access to the emails or their contents, it said, "it may be a sufficient remedial measure for the lawyer to persuade the client to cease the misconduct."
These precedents, the committee warned, "may be intended to impose obligations, pursuant to the courts' supervisory authority, that are independent of the ethics rules and that go beyond the disclosure obligations of Rule 3.3(b) and other rules."

Plus, the curtain is washable cotton, so if any of the gooey goodies explode, it'll be easy to clean. Rub-a-dub-dub, girl! [$44, Urban Outfitters]

"To the mind that is still, the whole universe surrenders." Lao TzuOkay, so I haven't gotten that one down yet. If anything, I'm far from it. You see, I often describe my mind as a pinball machine; perpetually bouncing from one thought to another. Now this isn't always a bad thing. I'm pretty good at those work-related brainstorming exercises.I have come to accept the fact that my bipolar mind will always be overactive. Bipolar Disorder has often been considered a condition that spurs creativity. That's not necessarily a bad thing. There have been many people throughout time who have had bipolar that were very creative (Vincent Van Gogh, Virginia Woolf). So I guess I'm not in such bad company.BUT, there have been times, like at 1:30 in the morning, when my mind won't shut down, and I wish my brain would just turn off. Or when I'm about to do something and my mind shifts gears faster than Dale Earnhardt Jr. at the Daytona Speedway. Do you know what I mean?I have learned a method to help with this pesky problem. It is a mindfulness technique that entails me repeating a passage slowly in my mind thereby helping me to allow my mind to concentrate on just one thing. I happen to use the Lord's Prayer but frankly it can be any phrase or passage that helps you to focus on one thing. This technique does take practice but I have found it to be incredibly effective. My Bipolar mind can be both a blessing and a curse however I have learned that once I have been able to manage my symptoms and reign in my recalcitrant thoughts, I can be highly innovative. Have you learned to bridle your mind?

It's a beautiful, sunny and warm (60F) day in Northern Arizona. My husband is off in the desert, riding dirt bikes with his pals, burning testosterone.
I have spent the day organizing stuff for a new year's beginning: starting new files, storing the old; making piles of paper I know I can burn after 7 years (true, right?); prepping for taxes; and ordering my annual credit reports. Good times, eh? I don't mind doing all of this—makes me feel fresh and clean. I am electrified when it's time to fill out my new day planner.
This behavior began shortly after we moved from the warm hues of Oklahoma to steel-gray Chicago when I was nine. It was the first week of January, and I had to build a sense of control, because I hated every second. I don't know if I developed true seasonal affective disorder or not. I am clearly aware of memories tied to flat, freezing winters, spent indoors. So, I organized, studied, made art.
I have lived a dichotomy for a long time. Residing in Arizona for 12 years, we know long stretches of dark winter days are rare, "frigid" is 30F, and there are heaps of things to do outside. Indeed, people feel guilty wasting a beautiful winter day spent indoors.
But I am still compelled to spend the first week of the year doing as I've done. It's gotta be due to that January moving week so long ago. But it's also weirdly symbolic—a kind of cleansing of the past year, receiving important knowledge for times ahead, and recording happy thoughts and plans for the year.
I'll go out and get that Vitamin D next week.
How does the first week go for you?

The last fancy New Year's party I went to was in Chicago, circa 1990. My girlfriends and I were all dressed up in short sparkly dresses, trying to walk icy sidewalks in 3" heels. We'd parked my mom's car on an unknowingly restricted side street. After enduring drunk-boys-a-smooching and drunk-girls-a-puking, we ended up at the impound lot until 4a.m. Lesson learned.
In the decades since, my husband and I have just hung out at home, sharing a kiss at midnight, if we don't fall asleep too early (except Y2K—had to be awake for that).
I avoid resolutions like the plague. I have asked myself what am I sidestepping? Commitment? Fear of failure? Not meeting others expectations? What will happen if I lose control over the resolution? Yup.
I write a lot about control when it comes to bipolar—control of mood, coping skills, esteem, power, knowledge, self-care, etc. It seems having "control" over everything makes me feel like I've got bipolar beneath a net.
But I don't believe making resolutions at the New Year is the same, because those resolutions sit below that falling crystal ball, not under my own umbrella of determination and time.
For me, the last two years have kind of sucked. I've made progress, and many areas in my life have improved, because of my resolve and purpose—but the unforeseen tossed me for a huge loop.
I already know 2012 is going to be a big year of change for my family. What I have learned the last few years is how to adapt and stay mostly okay at the same time.
I am celebrating the New Year by acknowledging my ability to mold to the unanticipated, and apply my control skills to each new situation.
How do you feel about New Year's resolutions?

I thought I would be able to write a lovely message this week about how the holiday season is about miracles, revelations, belief and giving, but my brain isn't cooperating. I have been mentally unstable for about two months now. I've dug and dug into my bag of coping skills, and have just barely kept it together.
Recently I heard the now ubiquitous Leonard Cohen song, "Hallelujah". Though many artists have recorded the piece, Cohen has indicated he prefers k.d. lang's version most (see hyperlink below).
There are hundreds of interpretations attributed to Cohen's lyrics; some clearly refer to stories from the Old Testament. All he's said is that "there are many kinds of Hallelujahs", and "All the perfect and broken Hallelujahs have an equal value. It's a desire to affirm my faith in life…with enthusiasm, with emotion."
What does this have to do with my stability/bipolar? "Hallelujah" is generally defined as "an expression of praise or joy, or 'God be praised.'" I can't record or interpret all the lyrics here, but there are a few lines that, to me, also echo the anguish of mental illness, and the epic battle we face each day:
Your faith was strong but you needed proofYou saw her bathing on the roofHer beauty and the moonlight overthrew ya (mania?)She tied you to a chairShe broke your throne and cut your hairAnd from your lips she drew hallelujah (depression?)Maybe there's a God aboveBut all I've ever learned from love Is to shoot someone who outdrew ya (rage?) It's a cold and broken hallelujah (we forge ahead)Here's something I can offer: that through all the pain, unfairness, instability, manias, depressions, and stigma-- as well as the miracles, joys, and wonders, there is always faith: under no circumstances is your life without meaning. Hallelujah.

Anyone use a "thumb thing" ?—a small item that that you grab, hold on to and rub with your thumb or roll in your hand to calm yourself? All the rage a number of years ago, many were made of polished stone, hardwood or other materials.
But one made of wrought iron? Mine is and it's special.
Some time ago I earned an art scholarship to Ghost Ranch in New Mexico. This magical place is where artist Georgia O'Keeffe fell in love with the Southwest, and left us with a new definition of American art. Today, Ghost Ranch has evolved beyond an artists' sanctuary into a place for retreat and reflection for numerous interests.
While there, I took a course in blacksmithing (yes, blacksmithing). At the start, with a class count of nine, I was the only woman; by course end, I was the only student. My instructor was kind of famous (think Smithsonian), and an excellent teacher. The other men told him they'd quit because blacksmithing was too hard!
It is hard. It's hot and dirty. It's heavy. The science?—riiiight. But the advantage of being the only student allowed time for talking with my instructor about my dreams as an artist, and my fears around bipolar keeping me from those dreams. It was clear I am not a blacksmithing prodigy; he made sure I was aware that by staying and making, I am not a quitter. He pointed out that the mind-body (idea to pounding iron) connection is the avenue to success.
On the last day, he presented me with my wrought iron thumb thing, shaped like a softly draping leaf. It fits my hand perfectly. It was his gift to remind me to get out of my head, feel physical reality, calm down, and get on with it.
What physical thing helps you get on with it?

One-on-One with Granville preservationist Randall Clemons
Liz Engel Clark
Wednesday, Nov 30, 2011
Granville preservationist Randall Clemons, front, and Billy Stiger stand in front of the T.B. Sutton Store.
CBJ: You grew up in Granville. What was your childhood like?
RC: Granville was a small town that had four stores, a service station, three churches and a school. It was just a great place to grow up, and I have fond memories of my childhood there, the church I was raised in and the set of friends I had. You could walk the streets and play and go to the store.
Of course, all of that got disturbed when Cordell Hull Lake came in and took so many of our homes and farmland. We were uprooted and had to move other places. That happened right in the midst of my teenage years. I was actually 14 when we had to leave Granville. (The lake) took all of my parents' farm and both my grandparents' homes. But the heart of the town was preserved, so that's what's been wonderful.
CBJ: How did people react to that?
RC: It was a lengthy process. As people dealt (with the government), they just tried to get what they thought was fair. But then you saw the bulldozers come in and things changed. The homes were torn down or moved. It was just a major uprooting. But I think that's been one factor that's helped us. In 1999, we started to preserve the Church of Christ building and some of the history of Granville. The first time we opened up on a Memorial Day weekend, we had a great outpouring of people who came back, and from that, the response and the volunteer base has been tremendous. As has the support people have given financially as well as the items donated to the museum. Since 1999, it's been a wonderful experience.
CBJ: Talk about what has happened in Granville since then.
RC: In 2000, Mr. Harold Sutton and Ms. Beverly came to Granville on our Heritage Day and discovered the Old Sutton General Store. It had fallen down and had been closed for some 30 years. He set out on a mission to purchase the store and restore it. That was the major thing that really made a difference in Granville, as you saw that store resurrected. When it opened that next May, people were able to walk in and get that feeling of a general store and the memories they had.
From that, we've had new additions to the Granville Museum, and then we started the Sutton Ole Time Music Hour. Our long-range goal had been (to buy) Mr. Sutton's home place. We were able to purchase it this last May, and we raised $175,000 in a little over 30 days. The property had a metal building we were able to convert to a 1950s service station as well as an antique car museum. An old barn on the property made for a very unique place where we've put a gristmill shop, a blacksmith shop and a weaving shop. They're all operating, and there's an ag museum in the back part of the building. And then we built a gazebo stage. It has a little shed that we made into a storytelling shed. On the back part of the property, we moved one of the first log homes built in Granville. (In November) we got a roof on it. And we'll have all the outbuildings that go with it, where we'll be able to teach children how a primitive homestead operated in the early years of our country. We're going to be able to make it a real unique experience.
CBJ: Besides Granville being your birthplace, why did you and the other volunteers decide to restore this little town?
RC: As a result of the lake coming in, a lot of our buildings and homes were destroyed, and there was a need to show what the town was like before that happened. We set out to do it.
The World War II maneuvers were big in Granville. And one thing that really spurred us was, was a gentleman by the name of Vincent DeNardo, who came here with the maneuvers from Pennsylvania, and he fell in love with Granville. For the next, almost 30 years, he would come to Granville every summer and spend his vacation here. He would bring a 35 mm camera, and while he was here for the two weeks, he would be out shooting shots of people on store porches, community gatherings, when you came out of church on Sunday. He was able to really capture the history of Granville. He left those pictures with the Dois Fields family in Granville; there were over 1,000 of them. We were able to take those and began the Granville Museum basically from that.
Uncle Jimmy Thompson, the first person to ever appear on the Grand Ole Opry, was from Granville. Sen. Albert Gore Sr. was born in Granville. There was a lot to tell with our history.
CBJ: What makes Granville so unique?
RC: The volunteer situation. We have 114 volunteers now that handle this whole operation. They make it happen. Then with the addition of the Sutton Homestead, which opened in October, and the tourist attraction it's going to be. It puts the finishing touches on what we have to offer at Granville and gives a full days activities for travel groups and individuals who want to come and spend the day.
CBJ: Granville is touted throughout the Upper Cumberland as a tourist destination. How has Granville fared during the recession?
RC: It definitely has hurt tourism some. At the same time, we're seeing more people do things locally, so we've been able to draw from all over Middle Tennessee. Tourism is real big for the community. Of course, every Saturday night, we do the Sutton Ole Time Music Hour, and it depends on tourists. The Upper Cumberland Tourism Association is a wonderful group that promotes the UC and they've been tremendous.
We do three major events each year that are real big tourist attractions: Our Heritage Day in May, we had 9,000 people this year. During our fall celebration Oct. 1, we had around 4,000. Our next event will be our Granville Country Christmas, which is Saturday, Dec. 10.
CBJ: You've tried to make sure Granville's story is well known, but what is the town's best kept secret? Why do people keep coming back?
RC: As people drive into town, they tell us they get the feeling of returning to a time of yesteryear. A real sense of peace. It's a stress reliever. People like that small town feel. We're often referred to as the Mayberry town. That's why we're doing a Christmas play, which has been huge for us, this year called "A Mayberry Christmas." We are doing 12 performances and they're almost sold out.
CBJ: You're also a banker in your "spare time." What are some unique challenges facing the bank industry right now, especially independent outfits like yours?
RC: We're in a very difficult time right now. In the Upper Cumberland, we've definitely been affected with the unemployment rate being what it is. Good people want to work, but they can't because they can't find a job. I think that impact is greater probably in Upper Cumberland.
As far as Wilson Bank, we have been blessed in that we've operated in a very conservative manner, so the impact has not been as great as on some other banks. But, I always say, there's nobody who's not been affected by the current economic times.
Tourism has had a major impact on the Upper Cumberland, and really, a lot of people don't understand that. We have a very unique opportunity. Operating in several different counties, the impact of the Upper Cumberland Tourism Association is major. The impact that the chamber of commerce is having with the Highlands Initiative, bringing the counties together in unity, is major. The impact that Tennessee Tech is having, with their new approach in trying to help businesses and cities and counties, is major as well. The Upper Cumberland probably has more working for it than any other part of the state.
CBJ: From your businesses' perspective, what's the long-term economic forecast? What's your projection for the next year?
RC: It's going to be a slow recovery, and I think we're beginning to see that. I don't think much is going change in the next 12 months. My concern at this point is what that's really going to mean for us.
CBJ: Let's swing back to Granville. Talk about what's going on this holiday season and how it will be different than in years past?
RC: The Sutton General Store is open throughout the week, for tour groups and Christmas parties. We are doing the Christmas dinner play, "A Mayberry Christmas," during the first two weeks of December. We are doing Christmas bluegrass shows every Saturday night in December featuring The Rigney's and Jerry Butler & The Blue Jays.
Dec. 10 is our Granville Country Christmas, and the theme is "Good Old Fashion Christmas." Throughout the month, the Sutton Homestead will have "Cider and Cinnamon - Stroll into Christmas Memories." The home will be decorated and guides will be dressed in costume. We'll also have a lot of children's events on Dec. 10. We're adding a Santa's workshop, and the Upper Cumberland Arts Alliance is going to be working with us and helping children create Christmas crafts. We'll have a little store set up there for the children where they can buy for their parents at very cheap prices – from 50 cents to $5. We'll have Santa Claus. One of our volunteers, who has taken from the movie "Polar Express" and written a book, "Granville Riverboat Express," will be telling that story as the children are seated around Santa.
We'll have a Christmas parade that day. We have Christmas musicals that will be performed at the Methodist church. We'll have a festival of trees, with a special focus on our military. We'll have an antique toy show at the car museum. Later that afternoon, we have the annual Christmas tree lighting, and following that, we'll have two guided candlelit tours of Granville. And, of course, we'll be doing our normal Sutton Ole Time Music Hour that night with a Christmas focus.
CBJ: It sounds like you have a lot going on. Why do you do all this? What is your motivation for keeping Granville alive?
RC: It's important for young people, regardless of where they're from, to understand their roots and to also understand and see the times of the past. We are trying to tell the history but in a way that's memorable. When you look back at what's happened in our country in the last 200 years, it's a major, major change. So many people don't know that story anymore.
CBJ: What would the world be like if there were more places like Granville?
RC: We think it would be a lot better, and I think that's one thing that interests people when they come here. They can think back on simpler times, times when people sat on their porches and talked. I think if there were more places like that, our world would definitely be different.

Special Order on Internet Sales Taxes
Set your DVRs! This Wednesday, Kentucky Representative Thomas Massie will be giving a half-hour special order speech after Wednesday's votes on why Members of Congress should oppose the "Marketplace Fairness Act" (more adeptly named the "National Internet Tax Mandate"). Other freshman members who also oppose the National Internet Tax Mandate will join Representative Massie.
Representative Massie, and the other members who will be joining him, deserve praise for speaking out, as Campaign for Liberty has heard from well-placed sources on Capitol Hill that the GOP leadership is pressuring members not to speak out against the Internet Tax Mandate because it is a "divisive" issue. But what leadership really means is, it divides those who oppose raising the price of everything you buy online and imposing new regulations on the Internet from those who support crony capitalism and giving tax-hungry governors new sources of revenue.
Campaign for Liberty will provide more details on the timing and order of the participants as they become available.

Welcome to Watertown Llamas in rural North Devon.
Rural North Devon is home to this happy herd of breeding female Llamas
is a small herd of around 50 llamas, including some of the very woolly
type known as Tampuli, and in particular, the wooliest llamas of all which
are called Lanudas.
I have been breeding llamas since 2004 and would like to introduce some of them to you !
Now , here comes THE BORING BIT .................
Llamas originate from South America and their numbers in the UK are estimated to be around 5,000 of which about 50% are registered with The British Llama Society. Numbers have increased steadily over the last thirty years , but largely from the same limited gene pool. In the first half of the 19th century imported llamas came to the UK mainly for exhibition in zoos , but in 1843 Peru banned the exportation of live camelids (llamas and alpacas) , and were joined in this by Bolivia , Argentina and Ecuador. The Chilean government also joined the ban in the 1930`s and no further importations could be made until the ban was eventually lifted in the 1980`s.
Effectively, this meant that for the best part of a hundred and fourty years the very tiny national herd became increasingly at risk of inbreeding. Even once the ban had been lifted, the cost and the difficulty of importing from South America into the UK prevented new bloodlines from being introduced.
Fortunately for our llamas, the European demand for new genetics was strong enough for these countries to start importing camelids again, just at a time when some of the UK`s top llama breeders were beginning to run out of viable breeding options. It seemed like all the best breeding stock could be traced back somewhere along the line to just a handful of champion stud males, so something had to be done ! One of the pioneers amongst UK llama breeders in the last 20 years is undoubtedly Paul Rose of Roseland Llamas who led the way by bringing in new genes from many of these new European herds including llamas from Holland, France, Switzerland, Poland, Czechoslovakia ,Austria and even from Chile.
In autumn 2009 I went to Europe and selected five unrelated stud males from three breeders in Italy and Switzerland , and some very special female llamas who have now joined my herd . They have provided Watertown Llamas with many superb new bloodlines which are totally unrelated to any other llamas in the UK , and the first progeny of these newly imported llamas were born in 2011.
All this has come from a very inauspicious start …………….I bought a group of 10 wild un-handled neglected llamas of mixed ages and unknown parentage , practically RSPCA cases , whilst knowing nothing of llama husbandry , to keep in a field ten miles from where I lived. It wasn`t long however before my obsession with llamas took hold and as a result I moved to Watertown , a house with 20 acres, so that I could properly care for and enjoy my llamas on site.
My original 10 llamas taught me a great deal , and whilst they have all now moved on to lovely new homes they inspired me to see what else I can do for llamas in the UK. My very ambitious goal is to continue the work started by Paul Rose and others to widen the llama gene pool in the UK , and most specifically , to increase the numbers of wonderful woolly llamas in the national herd.

Hey yall,
Let's join in the Austin tradition of decorating a tree on Hwy 360. Bring a few ornaments and some tinsel and let's see what we come up with!!!
We'll go for hot chocolate and dessert in the Arboretum afterwards. We'll meet up at the Barnes and Nobles at the Arboretum and carpool together to find our very own ASC Christmas tree!
Hope you'll join me for some Christmas cheer!
A friend of mine and I went down 360 Friday, I was amazed with just how many trees were decorated. Maybe as long as the people who get into the tradition, take responsibility for taking down their decorations the city won't mind. Won't cost the city/county a lot of money to hire someone to take them down. Make them happy to join in. There were some decorated on 1431 as well, so this Christmas spirit is spreading. It be nice to set up a volunteer clean up date.
1 · December 8, 2012
We just grab a coffee and speak French. Some people have been coming every week for months... it creates a kind of warmth to the group.
