'History for its own sake.'
'Just the Facts, ma'am.'
The assumption is that the Scientific method applied to historical facts enables historians to re-present the past objectively and accurately.
More specifically,
1. the rigorous examination of historical evidence verified by sources
a. Rely on primary documents originating at the time of the event to 'write what actually happened'
2. impartial research, i.e. historian operates under no presumptions or prejudices
3. inductive reasoning, from particular to general, ie no grand theorizing a priori
Political leaders and literate elites
The great men who make history
Canonical great thinkers
The fundamental political institutions
War and territory
Intellectual canon
e.g. V.H. Galbraith, Geoffrey Elton, Leopold von Ranke
Problems with 1:
1. records or artifacts that survive may be incomplete or partial
2. what survives may be the view of the winners and survivors
3. too much material to be encompassed by historian
1. facts do not speak for themselves, selection must occur, prior categories relied upon
2. claims about causation or motivation have to be attributed to actors since we never really know their minds.
3. multiple interpretations/narratives of same facts by historians
In practice then,
Historiography is the history of history, or the study of history, or the study of what historians do, on the grounds that what historians go looking for affects what they find. More specifically, it involves the dual recognition: (1) that there are a variety of theoretical and methodological approaches to history, and (2) that because these approaches respond differently to the methodological and philosophical questions involved in doing history they have their particular insights and blindspots.
History of Western philosophy
history of ideas
intellectual history
We will focus on four of the most influential theories/approaches/schools of historical practice:
1. Whig History
2. Marxist history
3. Gender history
4. Postmodern history
History is seen as the increasingly triumphant march of particular ideas or the progressive emergence of values and institutions, and is written as a series of right steps or missteps. The ideas, values and institutions singled out happen to coincide with the status quo self-description of modern Anglo-American constitutional representative democracies. They include variously freedom, individualism, rights, democracy, free markets, science, and technology.
Although Whig historians don't generally admit that they are writing in this manner, many, especially those who write for public or popular audiences tend to write history so as to explain the triumphant successes of the present.
In a sense, whig history is a secular version of Christian linear history.
Ideas and texts are understood in terms of their role or contribution towards advancing or obstructing liberal-democratic ideas and institutions.
Key concept: expanding freedom (Richie Havens, 1969; (G. Michael) or N. Minaj
Liberal-democratic progress
e.g. J.H. Plumb, E.H. Carr
Emergence of nation-state
e.g. Herbert Butterfield, Daniel Boorstin
Eugène Delacroix. Liberty Leading the People (28 July 1830). 1830. Oil on canvas. Louvre, Paris, France
Marxist history
History is seen as a series of epochs in which the fundamental structure of the material conditions affects cultural life in general and intellectual thought in particular.
Marxism, more specifically, focuses on the circumstances of economic production, and the resulting class struggle or dialectic (in terms of their relationship and roles to production) that affects thought.
Technological change determines material conditions and thereby affects thought, especially so under transition from feudalism to capitalism, but also in other broad epochs.
Ideas and texts are understood as cultural or intellectual manifestations of the underlying economic system which are typically working ideologically to legitimize the economic system and its necessary social hierarchies, and which are, regardless, always conditioned by the author's location, status, and hence interests in the socio-economic system.
Marxist historians are concerned:
(1) to
expose and critique dominant intellectual positions as ghost stories that
variously rationalize, obfuscate or distract from the
material realities of oppressive economic systems
(2) to recover and celebrate ideas and texts that reflect those at the greatest distance from economic power, including especially the "working class."
(3) to highlight the ways in which the myths of self-made men, owners and entrepreneurs obscure and dismiss the real creative power of the masses of laborers and workers
e.g. Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels, Rodney Hilton, Eric Hobsbawm, E.P. Thompson, Christopher Hill, Eugene Genovese
Key concept: class struggle (Rage Against the Machine: No Shelter, 1998; see game)
- 'History from below': which assesses critically the achievements of these historians in uncovering the lives of slaves, labouring men and women, ordinary soldiers, and upstart sectarians.
o the New Left historians of the 1960's
- 'the Annales School': rejected the traditional emphasis on the narrative of events and high politics in favor of problem-oriented analysis, the study of mentalities, and total geographic history.
o Fernand Braudel, Marc Bloch
Gender history
History is seen as a record of gender politics in which gender categories, principally male and female, are constructed and manipulated to generate particular sorts of norms and expectations around behavior that is masculine or feminine.
Ideas and texts are understood as cultural or intellectual manifestations of the underlying gender politics of the society which are typically deliberately or unconsciously reproducing and rationalizing the social constructed constraints and hierarchies on the differential meanings and capacities of the genders.
Feminist historians are concerned:
1. to expose and critique the exclusion of women philosophers from history
a. W are omitted and/or devalued
b. Historically, often did not have access to same education and were not expected or permitted to write in formal genres
2. to recover and celebrate women philosophers
3. to expose and critique the generally negative or misogynist ways in women are discussed in canonical male texts is
a. Explicit misogyny and construction of gendered hierachies
b. Gendered interpretation of particular key concepts, ie metaphors, concepts e.g. liberty
i. intrinsic
ii. extrinsic
c. Synoptic gender bias, i.e., entire philosophical tradition, especially in its view of reason and the individual, is male
Key concept: dualism or binary imposition (Nancy Sinatra, J. Simpson)
e.g. Joan Kelly, Sheila Rowbotham, Gisela Bok
Postmodern History
History is seen as a complex, diffuse phenomena requiring multiple lines of stories rather than a single meta-narrative. Whereas structural theories assumed closed, formal and predictive systems (of knowledge and language) which could be recognized by an external observer and applied to a given text or set of ideas, 'pomo' historians highlight the open and multiple possibilities of these texts and ideas.
They undermine claims of historical objectivity inasmuch as all history writing is a kind of fiction.
Instead, they engage in archaeology or genealogy of ideas.
Postmodern historians are concerned:
1. to expose and critique the exclusion of alternate forms of knowledge or belief from history, the silencing or erasure of the losers.
2. to recover without romanticizing or celebrating necessarily the différance, i.e., what is different or marginalized or absent.
a. Focus on origins, discontinuities, breaks, local social history, microhistories.
3. to expose and critique the easy assumptions made by most historians including:
a. the self; Pomo regards the emergence of human subjectivity as itself a product or effect of history
i. self is itself being invented and designed
ii. de-emphasizes the historically situated authorial consciousness.
b. power, and the view that it involves one group against another; instead power/knowledge are mutually reinforcing phenomena.
Key concept: rhizomatic formations (rhizome) (David Bowie: Heroes)
e.g. Michel Foucault, Roger Chartier
- The New Cultural History: examines patterns of everyday life, highlights meaning in rituals, events and language in low or popular culture. Call attention to management of violence, sexuality, common sense, and the meanings of literacy.
Other theories of history:
Author's intention and meaning is a function, not always intentional, of factors lodged in the author's own psychological makeup.
1. infancy and childhood is primary determinant of adult behavior
2. stages of development to maturation process of everyone
3. adult behavior is deeply affected by unconscious
4. internal psychological conflicts and tensions drive adult life.
Esp. psychoanalytic theory and Freud.
Authors and eras are the stage upon which ideas, which are assumed to have a certain coherence and logical shape, play themselves out.

Berry good times
We're still going like crazy with all kinds of summer beauty that I can't wait to share once time allows. Until then, here are some fun little arrangements including strawberries, zinnias, and carnations from Napa (thank you, Hudson Ranch for planting so many beautiful carnations!!) and garden roses from Santa Rosa.

Weakened Karen continues move toward Gulf Coast
NEW ORLEANS Tropical Storm Karen has stalled but is expected to resume moving north and be near or over portions of southeastern Louisiana on Saturday night and Sunday.
The National Hurricane Center says in an advisory that Karen hasn't moved for a few hours. But forecasters continue to expect it to turn toward the northeast by Saturday night, then speed up into Sunday. They say the storm is likely to pass near the coasts of Mississippi and Alabama on Sunday.
Karen is about 130 miles (205 kilometers) south-southwest of Morgan City, La., and about 190 miles (305 kilometers) west-southwest of the mouth of the Mississippi River.
A tropical storm warning remains in effect from Morgan City to the mouth of the Pearl River. A tropical storm watch covers the New Orleans area and a stretch from east of the Pearl River's mouth to Indian Pass, Fla.
THIS IS A BREAKING NEWS UPDATE. Check back soon for further information. AP's earlier story is below.
Tropical Storm Karen continued to chug toward the Gulf Coast on Saturday, threatening to bring heavy winds and high rains, despite a general weakening overnight. Officials still urged residents to be vigilant, even as an evacuation order in one of Louisiana's most vulnerable areas was scaled back.
"The storm's weakened, and that's good news, but we're not out of the woods yet," New Orleans Mayor Mitch Landrieu said at a news conference. He warned of likely high winds, street flooding and power outages.
From Louisiana to northwest Florida, officials and residents expected to begin feeling the effects of the storm Saturday night and Sunday.
"There is still the potential for some locally heavy rainfall and for some storm surge in coastal areas, but the magnitudes of those hazards greatly reduced," said Rick Knabb, the director of the National Hurricane Center in Miami. "We still could see 1 to 3 feet of coastal flooding due to storm surge in some spots."
Officials in Plaquemines Parish, La., said the evacuation-order change from mandatory to voluntary took effect at noon Saturday. More than 80 evacuees from the area, at the state's southeastern tip, had taken refuge at a public shelter, which would remain open Saturday.
"The storm has been downgraded tremendously," said Guy Lagaist, head of emergency operations for the parish. He said storm surge predictions for the lower portion of the parish were reduced, from a 3-to-5 foot range to 1-to-3. "That allows us a lot of breathing room."
The National Hurricane Center reported that Karen's maximum sustained winds had dropped to 40 mph, making it a weak tropical storm. It was moving north at 10 mph (16 kph), and center forecasters expect Karen to decrease in speed later Saturday and turn toward the northeast.
Coastal authorities closed flood gates along waterways that could be affected by tides driven by the storm. In New Orleans, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers continued closing barriers designed to keep surge out of the Inner Harbor Navigation Canal - scene of catastrophic flooding in 2005 when flood walls failed during Hurricane Katrina.

Lenovo Laptop Uses Only 7.4 kWh Per Year
TopTen USA, which issues quarterly rankings for computer energy efficiency, finds the most energy efficient laptop is the Lenovo ThinkPad T430s, using 7.4 kWh of electricity in a year of typical use.
The average comparable model uses 28 kWh per year – more than 3 times the energy. On average, TopTen-listed laptops use about 48 percent of the energy of comparable models.
The TopTen's laptop rankings are:
- Lenovo ThinkPad T430s
- Apple Macbook Air MD231, MD223/224
- Apple Macbook Pro MD212, MD213
- Acer Aspire S7-191, 391
- Lenovo IdeaPad S300
- Apple Macbook Pro MC975, MC976
- Acer Aspire V5-571
- Samsung 300 Series
- Dell Precision M6700
Computers using minimal amounts of power can do everything their inefficient competition can do, according to TopTen USA. The company says a regular, rapid improvement in computing power has been observed since 1965, when Intel founder Gordon Moore offered the analysis now known as "Moore's Law," tracking the rapidly increasing number of transistors that can fit on a chip. But it wasn't until a year or so ago that the correlating reduction in energy consumption was quantified by Stanford University's Jonathan Koomey and a group of colleagues. They recognized that the number of computations a computer can make using a given amount of electricity has doubled every 1.6 years since the 1940s.
TopTen USA is a nonprofit founded in 2009, dedicated to speeding the adoption of high-efficiency consumer products. Organized with the support of utilities, regional and national energy efficiency alliances, and national environmental groups, TopTen's experts identify the ten most efficient models in each of the most energy intensive consumer product categories.
Another group that ranks energy efficiency of consumer products is the Super-efficient Equipment and Appliance Deployment (SEAD), an initiative of the Clean Energy Ministerial, a high-level global forum launched by the Department of Energy and other leading governments in July 2010 to advance clean energy technology.

The sound is incredible, better that I expected. Low guttural growl but pull off the baffles and you will be heard for blocks. I found there is no need to re-jet your carbs; it runs fine by just bolting them on. I would recommend these to all.
phil_burrill Posted:
They slip one fairly easily. Had to grease the pipes and file the factory heat sheild on the upper pipe. If you run these with the baffles installed, you most likely won't need to re-jet the carb (as I didn't have to). They are pretty loud even with the baffles. I like it really loud, so I will be removing the baffles and installing a hive five filter (open) and re-jetting at the same time.
lrdbliss Posted:
I really like the sound of pipes...the 2006 V-Star doesn't sound like a sewing machine anymore. I do not have to retune..runs great. The only problem I experienced was the fit of the upper unit to the existing mounting bracket. The bracket for the upper pipe on an '06 V-Star 1100 is a vertical stud and the exhaust pipe has a mount for a horizontal stub. I had to make a stainless steel L-Bracket to get the upper pipe mounted. I'm thinking the change occured in '06 and the pipes will fit older models. You might want to check that out before you buy.
joecook187 Posted:
Sound amazing. They sounded great with the baffles in and sound even better with the baffles out. I didnt have to re jet the carb even after removing the baffles. The bracket for the upper pipe is wrong but was easily modified to fit
Gubbels Posted:
I have a 2003 Yamaha V-star 1100 that I took the stubby pipes off and put these on and it gave it a nice deep rumble. Unlike the stubby pipes that were louder they lacked the rumble that these have. I did remove the baffles so that it is still plenty loud and has a nice sound. They are made of good heavy chrome that really look sharp on the bike.

This wasn't bad but you really need to play around with the spices to get it how you like it. For people not used to this kind of food, I suggest adding a little at a time, and taste - alot of Indian spices are a real acquired taste. I personally added way more garlic, and also some Patak's garlic chutney. It was good but not something I would make again.
This is a great recipe. Not really authentic, but tasty!

hi barb and shaner.......i see there are some anniversaries coming up, and i want you to know you are in my thoughts. i was wondering if you guys could spare some prayers.......someone i know from my IF group, her name is mary, just gave birth to her boy/girl twins at 5 mos, and they died in her arms. she is beyond devastated. i gave her this website in hopes that she will find her way here since you all are so wonderful, but she's in a very dark place right now.....i don't know if she'll come or not. as an update for me, our doctor has told us that our best chance at children is through IVF, and i don't think we'll go that route, so now we're mourning the possibility of only ever having been parents to the one child i miscarried. please pray for us, that if what god wants for us is not to have children, that he changes his mind. i know you all know how precious children are. thank you so much. bless you.

Hello Tammy,~ I just left a post at Rhonda's memorial site. :) You are such a dear and loyal friend. I know Rhonda is smiling down on you and your precious little family! :) I also know how touched her family and friends will be when they see your beautiful tribute to your sister-friend! As I stated in one of the post at her memorial; the two of you were more than just friends, you were sister-friends! :) I am going to try to do one for my dear sister-friend, if I am allowed to do so. I have done so many for family members, I don't know if I will be allowed to do another one. But I sure am going to try! :) Thanks for inspiring me to do so! And, thank you for all the heartfelt posts to all the bereaved moms. You are such a sweetheart! :) May God watch over you and your precious little family, always!

shaner (Sandy), I left a post for you at Shane's memorial site. Please know that I will be storming heaven with prayer for you and family. Cindy emailed me earlier last night. Her Kristina's anniversary day is the same as your Shane's. So I left a post at Kristina's memorial site also. I pray that you are pampering yourself during this period of valley days. :) As always you are in my thoughts, which places you in my prayers!
3/12/2002 08:09
Hello Verna, thank you for your lovely post, yes, Cindy's daughter Kristina passed away on the same day as Shane, March 15th. It's going to be an especially difficult day for Cindy and her family, this is their 1st Anniversary. Thank you again for your prayers, we can all use them,
3/12/2002 09:38
Hello everyone! I haven't posted since the end of Feb. God Bless each one of you today. There is so much sadness here. I'm feeling it alot this morning. My son Joseph's 27th birthday was Mar. 7th and I know what Sandy means about the anxiety building in anticipation of the anniversaries and birthdays. Joseph died in a car accident on Nov. 20, 1999. It does still seem like yesterday, you never forget what you went thru in those early days. The pain is indescribable and it still hurts so much as I believe it always will. I miss my Joseph so much. God gave me a gift of the dove (doves from heaven) in the days following his death because in my deepest grief I asked Him for a sign in the form of a dove that Joe was with Him in heaven. I really already knew that he was, but I just needed that assurance from God. On Thanksgiving Day, 5 days after his death, I was given a dove from someone I knew only as an aquaintance. God spoke to her I believe because He knew I needed that reassurance as did the rest of our family. I told no one I prayed for that sign until after. God is so good and He continues to give me the sign of the dove over and over. That's why I call myself Dovesfromheaven! I will never forget of His great love for me and my family and I believe Joseph is my dove and angel in heaven. It's still so hard to go on without our precious loved ones, especially with special events happening in our lives.
3/12/2002 12:57
Hello Yvonne, (dovesfromheaven), it's so very nice to see you posting again!
3/12/2002 15:58
Thank you Sandy for your prayers. What a precious sign you received from the Lord too! Isn't it so loving of our Lord to care for us in that way, to hear our cries in our pain, and then to give us these signs to show us He is with us thru our darkest times, when we need it most? God is so awesome! In the spring after Joseph died, I wanted to make a memorial garden in honor of him. Some wonderful people gave us gifts of trees and perennial flowers to plant at the time of his death. We made this garden in our front yard right in front of the front door, so we could see it often. But as we were planning it, we used a garden hose to make the outline and it was taking the shape of a heart, but I didn't want a heart in the yard (no offense, I love hearts too, I just didn't want a heart garden) so we jiggled the hose around and went with whatever shape it took. Little did we know that it turned out to be the shape of a dove! We didn't see it immediately, my sister pointed it out to me a couple of months after! We weren't trying to do that, it just turned out that way. Also in the shape if you looked at it one way you could see a J and if you looked at it from the other direction you could see a J, so I claimed that to stand for Jesus and Joseph! We placed a big bird bath in the center and some lilac bushes and other plants around. I often see doves come in the evenings after the sunsets to bathe! What a gift! Thank you Lord! I'm looking forward to the comfort that that garden and birdbath will bring again this spring and summer. I just wanted to share my dove story in the hope that it will give someone some hope for their loved one. I know I will see my Joseph again someday. That is my hope! And I thank God everyday for this special gift he continues to give me, he doesn't have to do this for me, but he loves us so much and wants to comfort our grieving hearts. I look for doves all the time now. I'm sorry for going on like this, I have so much to say and not many will listen to me like you all. Thank you!

Dear Jennifer23,
3/13/2002 08:58
Hello Yvonne, (dovesfromheaven), yes, these signs we were given helped to ease a mother's broken heart, and I thank God everyday for the sign of my heart, as I'm sure you do for your doves. I also pray that other moms receive their own 'sign'. How wonderful to make a Memorial Garden for Joseph, a very beautiful way to honour his life and spirit! That's really amazing how the shape of the hose took on the shape of a dove!, and also the shape of "J", how you must treasure your garden! Your garden sounds beautiful, and I know you can't wait until Spring and Summer to be able to enjoy it, giving you a loving Sanctuary to enjoy and remember. I know you will see your Joseph again one day, and thank you for posting your story, I'm sure that other moms will find it comforting, it's such a beautiful story.

The Charles Schwab Corporation has been recognized again for its employee-friendly workplace through two new awards received this month. In Chicago and Austin, Schwab has been named to the lists of Top Workplaces, published by The Chicago Tribune and Austin American-Statesman, respectively.

Ben Sheppard, vice president of Schwab Retirement Services and senior location leader for Austin, said, "We are thrilled to get this recognition and so grateful to our employees for placing us on the list. We compete with lots of other companies in recruiting new talent, and being known as a great place to work makes us more appealing to the talented pool of job candidates looking for jobs in Austin."Other workplace recognition received by Schwab this year includes:

9 Nine Shane Acker Short Animation
Uploaded by FrFKmeron
It's totally Little Big Planet mixed with Awesome. It seems a bit odd that Tim Burten is directing the actual movie when clearly the guy who did this short can do just fine by himself. But I guess he's not a "name" so actual talent doesn't matter when faced with a for sure sale.

Chef Craig von Foerster of the award-winning Sierra Mar Restaurant at the Post Ranch Inn shared this recipe for an unusual and incredibly flavorful dessert during a Chef Walk he led at our Farm Stand in Carmel Valley, California.
To make the panna cotta: Spray 6 ramekins with vegetable oil spray and set aside. Bloom the gelatin in cold water for 5 minutes. In a small saucepan, steep the fennel seed, sugar, and lemon zest in 1-1/2 cups of the cream over low heat. When the cream and the sugar are dissolved, strain through a fine sieve and let cool to room temperature.
Whip the remaining 1-1/2 cups of cream to medium peaks and fold into the cooled cream mixture. Fill the prepared ramekins with the batter. Let the panna cottas set up in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour. Serve garnished with candied fennel and slices of your favorite citrus fruit.
To make the candied fennel: Remove the outer layer and core of the fennel bulbs, and slice them thinly on a handheld slicer or mandoline. Place the water, sugar, Pernod, and lemon juice in a small saucepan and bring to a boil. Remove from heat, pour over the fennel, and let cool. May be refrigerated until needed.

-Re: how to get the time of a hadoop cluster, v0.20.2
"if NTP is correclty used"
that's the key statement. in several of our clusters, NTP setup is kludgy.
note that the professionals administering the cluster are different from
"us" the engineers. so, there's a lot of red tape to go through to get
something trivial or not fixed. we have noticed that NTP is not setup
correctly (using default GMT timezone, for example). without explaining all
the tedious details, this mismatch of date/time (of the hadoop cluster to
the server machine) is causing some pains.
i'm not sure i agree with "the local OS time from your server machine will
be the best estimation." that doesn't make sense.
but what i want to achieve is very simple. as stated before, i just want to
ask the namenode or jobtracker, "hey, what date/time do you have?"
unfortunately for me, as niels pointed out, this query is not possible via
the hadoop api.
thanks for helping, though.

Bass TabsChordsTabs
Explosivo by Tenacious D notes: This song contains fairly easy chords, learning the rhythm is a bit tough but just listen and play along with it until you get it. If you disagree with any of the lyrics then just change them yourself, this is the way it sounds to me. Part I: This is pretty basic barre chord action. Warning, your hand may start to hurt or cramp by the end of this song. C5 G#5 A#5 e------------------------------------------ b------------------------------------------ g---5--5------5-5------------------------ d---5--5------5-5-----6--6--6-----8--8 Play twice before singing . a---3--3------3-3-----6--6--6-----8--8 e-----------------------4--4--4-----6--6 Here is the switch up part on that, it comes at the end of each "verse" C5 G#5 G5 e------------------------------------------ b------------------------------------------ g---5--5------5-5------------------------ d---5--5------5-5-----6--6----5--5 . a---3--3------3-3-----6--6----5--5 e-----------------------4--4----3--3 Lyrics with guitar: C Climb upon my faithful steed, then we gonna ride gonna smoke some weed. Climb upon my big assed steed, and ride, ride, ride. C5 G#5 A#5 C G#5 A#5 C G#5 G Heeeeeeeeeeee eeeeeeeee eeeeeee eeeeeeee eee C5 G#5 A#5 What's the name of the song? Explosivo! C5 G#5 A#5 Don't know what it's about but its good to go C5 G#5 A#5 What's the name of my girlfriend? I don't know C5 G#5 A#5 But she's built like the ***, and she's good to go C5 G#5 G5 go she's good to go, she's good to go C5 G#5 A#5 C5 We are fueled by satan yes we're schooled by satan G#5 A#5 Schooled by satan!, C5 G#5 A#5 C5 writin' those tasty riffs just as fast as can G#5 A#5 Fueled by satan! Part II: This is a little different but not too difficult. Its rhythmic so listen to the song for the rhythm. C5 D#5 F5 e------------------------------------ b------------------------------------ g--5--5--5--5-----8-8----10---10 d--5--5--5--5-----8-8----10---10 a--3--3--3--3-----6-6-----8----8- e------------------------------------ C5 D#5 F5 We were the inventors of the cosmic astral code C5 D#5 F5 We've come to blow you away, we've come to blow your nose C5 D#5 F5 We've come to ***in' blow, we've come to blow the show. C5 D#5 F5 We've come to ***in' blow you know it you know it! (Back to Part I) C5 G#5 A#5 C G#5 A#5 C G#5 G Heeeeeeeeeeee eeeeeeeee eeeeeee eeeeeeee eee C5 G#5 A#5 What's the name of the song? Explosivo! C5 G#5 A#5 Don't know what it's about but its good to go (back to part II): just play the chords and the words come in at varied times, the chords get progressively faster until its madness. I am not one of you i come from a distance time I am known as the angel crrrrusher These pics that I give you were molded in satan's cauldron. Take these pics, they're souvenir satan pics.

The City of Saskatoon threw dogs and their owners a bone on Monday, giving canines a free chance to splash around at Mayfair Pool.
Although the outdoor pool is closed for the season to humans, dogs were given an evening to tread water where no paw has gone before.
Mike Simmonds, who has a service dog named Graham, was one of the people who approached the city last fall suggesting a dogs-only day at Mayfair.
Water-loving Graham sits outside Simmonds' shower, and gets excited whenever he sees a hose.
Graham spent an hour diving for a rubber duck in the sunlit water.
"This is the first year. Everybody just wants to make sure the dogs can swim and come out unscathed," Simmonds said.
The event included a barbecue for dog owners, plain snow cones for Fidos, and even some doggie lifeguards from Waterpaws keeping watch. The turnout verged on overwhelming.
After the first hour, the pool deck was packed with people and their damp furballs, while at least 100 more dogs were lined up waiting to get in.
Bryan Firth came well before the gate opened with Winnie, his Labrador-border collie-German shepherd.
"She's going to go crazy," Firth said before Winnie hit the water.
"Like, crazy excited to actually go in the pool. She's not allowed to do stuff like that during the year."

Last night, I had a dream that there was a mild rumbling sound coming from outside the building I was in. The only people who heard the sound were the ones who were awake . They quickly ran outside to see where the noise was coming from. To their surprise, there was snow descending with great speed. The snow covered the doors first, then the entire building of those who were asleep. The interesting part of the dream was that many people were sleeping during the day while a bright white color shined outside.
There was a strong desire within the people who were awake to warn those who were asleep, but there was no time. The ones who were awake ran to the top of a rocky hill with supernatural strength. The people moved up the hill as fast as the snow was coming down. All the people who were awake lived, but all the people who were asleep died and were buried miles beneath the snow in the buildings.
(During the dream, I discerned that the avalanche was very unexpected, the location of this place usually doesn't get snow, nor was it the season for snow.)
