Reopened for business December 2014. Easily accessible, yet away from the mainstream, a visit to Makana Kai in the small Hawaiian Beaches community is an escape to an earlier time. Quaint and private, this split-level apartment provides quality and comfort and a feel for the real Hawaiian lifestyle. Casual, indoor/outdoor living with open beam ceilings, bamboo and tile flooring and granite countertops accentuate the cozy design.
Pockets of jungle nearby echo the exotic sounds of myna birds, cardinals, finches and coquie frogs, while the open park affords an ocean view of an ever changing skyline and ocean movements. It's balmy breezes mixing scents of surf and flowers captivate the spirit and encourage both exploration and relaxation. . Dark nights display a star-studded universe enjoyable from inside or outside on the deck or private rear yard.
A perfect get-away to escape the stress of modern living or for the more active and adventurous many activities to enjoy ocean and mountains.

What to do: Life is slower, but ripe with the diversity of the Big Island. One can enjoy rarely traveled jungle roads, creation in the making with new black sand beaches and varying volcano activity, or view the world from Mauna Kea's Observatories high above around 13, 700 'elevation.
An island of secluded beaches, tropical forests, and 11 of the earths 13 climate zones offers incredible hiking trails, scenery and viewing of exotic birds and plants found nowhere else.

About the Author and Illustrator
Jean Marzollo
When I was young, I liked to sew, play baseball, and read. I was drawn to poetry early in life. I loved to read, and one of my favorite books as a child was A Child's Garden of Verses by Robert Louis Stevenson. Also, my mother had several small poetry books on her bookshelf. With their leather covers and gold titles, they were treasures to me.

Walter Wick's photographic tricks have captivated fans of his books, including the I Spy series.

Foreau's 2008 Vouvray Sec is adamantly dry at 2 grams residual sugar, an impression accentuated by bright acidity and a firm sense of mineral underpinnings. The musky, animal, faintly truffly aspect of the vintage is on display here (but Foreau says 2008 is even stronger in acidity for him than was 1996, and in other respects favors comparison with 2001) as well as an almost radish-like sharpness and fresh lime intensity of a positively vibratory finish. Amazingly - even to Foreau in retrospect - this harbors the same 13.6% alcohol as his 2009 sec, but what a difference in personality! It needs a couple of years in the cellar and should be fascinating to follow for at least a dozen. (8/ 2010)

Hello everyone and happy Friday! How are you today? I'm feeling great because the heat has lifted and the weather is sublime which greatly impacts how I feel. And now I can take my little one outside – when it's boiling I have no will and he seems to hate sweating too, so we play indoors and he hangs out in mommy's work studio. The weekend is here so we're hoping to hit some flea markets and festivals like the Maschseefest which I just love – it's a huge open air festival around this massive lake in the center of our city with food and music and this year, they've totally changed the format to include foods for more diverse palates like mine, so I'm excited to see what they have. You can follow me on Instagram to check out my fest photos this weekend if you'd like. So, let's talk about beautiful rooms shall we?
I was thrilled (and little Aidan was very curious!) when Covet Garden Home sent a copy of their gorgeous magazine in print. They usually publish online (see all of their issues here on ISSUU), so holding it in my hands was a first for me and a really beautiful moment. I wasn't into digital magazines at all, I couldn't connect and couldn't really save anything from them, so I normally bypassed digi mags for print or just went to Pinterest for inspiration. BUT Issuu has a new "Clip" option for viewing digital magazines, which has totally changed the game for me and I'm suddenly a big fan of digital magazines on Issuu at least. I digress…
Anyway, until now, Covet Garden never hit my radar but now that they've released this print issue (below) and Issuu (which is their viewing platform) has Clip, I'm a brand new fan and totally absorbed.
As I went through the issue, I fell in love with the home stories that ranged from family nests to small spaces for artists and larger ones for couples who sought peace in the countryside. I found myself drawn to the more natural palettes with quirky handmade touches and a mix of styles, so I asked Covet Garden if I could show some of my favorite rooms for this blog post and to my delight, they were happy to do so.
This special print edition is so beautifully done, I'd like to congratulate Lynda Felton (co-editor, content lead, stylist), Jessica Reid (co-editor, creative director), and Rhonda Riche (co-editor, features editor, writer) for pulling this off. With their combined talents and rich professional backgrounds, they've managed to pull together a winning piece of quality work. I also LOVE that they were able to make this issue come to life through crowd funding on IndieGoGo where they raised $20,230 (CAD) from friends and fans. I absolutely love the concept of crowd funding GOOD ideas (there is a lot of crap to filter through on these sites more and more but some real gems definitely exist) and adore the thought of having your fans and friends financially back your work, this is a positive and rewarding way to launch a product or service that you may not be able to fund yourself but also it adds that market research component – you get to see if something has legs before you invest in it. If people don't back you, it may not be the right product, the right timing, or both. Then you have to tweak and try again or move on to another idea. But at least you didn't go into debt learning your lesson.
Here is another room below from Covet Garden that I love. I think it's that very industrial architecture combined with a very traditional decor – it's such an unexpected mix, it threw me off at first – made me look twice, and I like that. It's daring.
This sweet stool combined with that postcard holder for the wall is a sweet duo. I like showing art, postcards, notes, etc. this way – open, casual, creative and gives visitors a chance to touch your beloved favorites – it doesn't feel too precious.
I don't know if the homeowner painted those crib rails but if she did, it's a really cool idea. If not, then I guess it's worth a try if you use non-toxic paint and your baby isn't a railing chewer as I read some babies can be. I love the naturalness of this nook. Crib bumpers are risky, but it seems in Canadian publications (which this is) crib bumpers are kept in baby room photos (in Germany too), but in the USA magazines have asked me to remove all bedding (I don't have bumpers) in order for them to run the photo. Interesting isn't it? Of course, it's for baby safety and SIDS, but still interesting… Anyway, this nursery is gorgeous and I love it.
Yardsticks on the fireplace surround, black matted framed artwork, that cool couch, the tiny rug below the sofa table which breaks ALL of the boring design rules out there about "proper" rug size… What is NOT to like about this tiny living room? It really grabbed my heart. It feels so warm and inviting. The homeowner is clearly clever and creative.
Ok I'm going to be adventurous here and say I love this dining room, because I do, but I still am NOT SURE I COULD EAT around all of those insects mounted on the wall in shadow boxes. Could you? Or am I being a wimp here?
Are you a fan of Covet Garden Home magazine? If so, get your print edition while it lasts and support this wonderful home-grown business. You will love the issue and home stories (and NO ads!), I promise!

House Doctor has done it again with another pretty collection for Autumn/Winter 2014 with their Moments collection. I think it's very smart and sophisticated, understated, simple and cool. Colors range from rose to cool blue, mossy and teal greens, yellow and smokey gray. For materials, you have copper, gold, brass and marble along with wood, in particular, plywood. Christmas looks very casual again this year in Scandinavian design and since House Doctor is Danish, they are leading the pack with simplicity and pared down decor for the ho-ho-holidays. Lanterns a-glow, metal and wire, hand-blown glass, baskets (for displaying fir trees large and small). I really love this collection. Here are 12 photos from House Doctor that I am able to share with you to tickle your design fancy. To see more, visit their online catalog here.
This sofa above is a personal favorite. Do you like it too?
I like seeing a simple fir tree in a big skinny two-tone basket, don't you? It reminds me of this post from last year when our trend expert, Gudy, called this look out as a trend for Holiday Decorations 2013/2014. Looks like this look is back for another year of fun!
Really crushing on this light fixture and sofa combo. Perhaps for my studio makeover? Hmmm.
This rose and that tealish chair make me squirm in my, ahem, seat. Lovely!
I know this is being shown as a dining table but I'm thinking of this for my new desk. What do you think of that? I also love that they took 3 lights and turned them into a big bubble cluster. In real life though, I have no clue how I'd install that in my house – how do you merge 3 lights into one anyway?
Shelving I'm considering for my new office.
See anything you fancy?

Yeah, I know, I know. I am going to show you something in my shop. Horror! But I must disclose that this came about by the demands of my readers, not from me so maybe it won't feel so commercial and evil now that you know that. Ok, so I posted this rug that I co-designed for Olli + Ella for Aidan's nursery and the internet blew up (in a good way) because so many people wanted this rug – the room tour even ended up in magazines (Fit Pregnancy in the US and Luna Mum in Germany) and online over at Apartment Therapy. It wasn't available because it was a custom job BUT for the next 25 days in my little shop you can buy it! And yes, I earn a wee commission if it sells which may earn me a dinner out… I'm not going to buy a yacht so I can go blog on the Riviera. But I want to at least notify you guys since so many loved the rug in my nursery reveal, so now you can have a chance to own a rug that I worked on designing the colorway of. That's pretty cool, I'm proud of it!
Details: Colors – A little monty aqua, a splash of ecru, a hint of white, some sunny yellow and a dash of our warm musk. Size – 100cm diameter. Material – 100% wool. HANDMADE IN ENGLAND.
Psst: You can also buy the matching felt ball garland too for BOYS (or girls) or for GIRLS (or boys!!). Get your rug on right here.

Australian stylist and interiors author Shannon Fricke released a new collection of bed linens this past Spring called, "Where Love Resides", which is in her signature palette of greens and blues. The collection is presented "free range style" so you can mix and match your favorite pieces to create a bed with your own personal style stamp. There are quilt covers, pillowcases and cushions in cottons, linens and velvets. Here is a glimpse below – so beautiful! And hello, can someone please transport me to this hammock on the Australian coast? Like, now!
I can definitely see these selling at Anthropologie or the wonderful ABC Carpet + Home, so perhaps this post will be shared and you guys can help Shannon get her line into the US or European market. I'd love to see that. I know Shannon personally, we dined together a few times in New York City while I was working on one of my books a few years ago, and we hit it off quite nicely. She is a very dedicated business woman with a creative soul – an Aries like me – a real go-getter. She has a billion ideas and tons of passion, talent, energy and drive. You really can't fail with that recipe can you?
Shannon all the best on your new collection!

SHERIDAN, Wyo. — A former Sheridan probation and parole officer accused of having a romantic relationship with a woman he supervised has pleaded not guilty to felony second-degree sexual assault.
Chris Yager, who entered his plea Thursday, is accused of engaging in a five-month romantic relationship with the woman.
State law forbids sexual relationships between probation officers and their charges for a time after the supervisory period ends. In this case, Yager's direct supervision of the woman ended in August 2012. The alleged relationship occurred between January and May of this year.
Wyoming Department of Corrections spokesman Mark Horan says Yager no longer works for the department

Getting Back On Your Hooves Ch. 1Chapter 1 'Unexpected Encounter"by Kendell2 and Raikou Artist"Well, it's nice to be back in Canterlot; so much has changed!" Twilight said as she continued walking, excitement in her voice. Sure, she'd been here a few times since she'd moved to Ponyville, but this was really the first time she'd been there just to relax and reconnect with her roots, as opposed to a party or being called to save the world from an ancient evil that escaped its prison. She remembered Rarity's friendship report after Twilight's birthday; don't be ashamed of your roots. That's what had compelled her to come do a little reconnecting with where she'd come from. "Isn't that right, Spike Spike?" she asked, looking back at her assistant to see him falling quite far behind.Spike panted, struggling to keep up. "Yeah, Twilight," he panted, stopping to catch his breath. "Can I... Can I please ride on your back?" he asked, unable to keep up with the excited Unicorn mare. "I know you're excited, but I can onl
EHL Part IX - Wingin' ItEquestria Hockey League Part IX Wingin' Itby XFizzleThe following day after the Ponyville Golden Leafs' tension-packed, fight-filled victory over the Fillydelphia Flyers, Twilight Sparkle had administrative duties to perform. Earlier that morning, the other Golden Leafs stopped by to donate their share of the team's 10,000 bit fine to the EHL. Applejack offered to pay more than her share for she was still feeling guilty about receiving a suspension and putting the team in a tough spot. Twilight sent the fine payment along with a message asking if Spike could substitute for Applejack in the Golden Leafs' lineup for their next game at Cloudsdale.Twilight nervously paced inside the treehouse, waiting for the EHL's response. Spike was casually lounging in a chair near the fireplace, reading a superhero comic. Twilight periodically looked over at Spike to see if he had belched a new message. Feeling small vibrations from Twilight's pacing, Spike peered up over his co
EHL Part XI- ..The Belle TollsEquestria Hockey League Part XI For Whom the Belle Tollsby XFizzleAnother "X" marked on the calendar to begin another day of loneliness for Twilight Sparkle. She sighed loudly as she glanced at the current day's square and saw the words "weekly practice" in bold red letters. Twilight lazily began to ready herself for the long day, dragging herself to the mirror to brush her mane. Spike rustled out of his sleep and yawned his way up and out of his bed. Even while rubbing his eyes, Spike could see Twilight's distress. He let out one last yawn and stretched out his tiny limbs."Well somepony looks down in the dumps. What's wrong Twilight?"Twilight looked away from the mirror and down at her hooves. "I don't know Spike. Ever since the Appleloosa game, I've been feeling incredibly lonely and a bit guilty."Spike walked up next to Twilight and began fussing with his scales in the mirror beside her."Lonely I can understand, but guilty? The girls weren't listening to y
EHL Part III - Inaugural DebutEquestria Hockey League Part III Inaugural Debutby XFizzleGiant buildings shadowing every inch of the ground. Crowded streets teeming with rushing carts and carriages. Delicious smells of various shops filling the daytime air. This was Manehattan, the site of the Ponyville Golden Leafs' first EHL game that evening. Twilight Sparkle and her team of rag-tag ponies all looked up, down, and around, admiring their urban surrounding with great wonder. Of the ponies, Rarity was the one most excited by the atmosphere, squealing and gushing over every high-class fashion boutique they passed. Pinkie Pie hopped with an extra spring in her step towards the many bakeries and eateries down the main street. Spike rode along as Twilight Sparkle's brain rushed with flowing questions and curiosity as she encountered things she had never seen before: traffic posts, street performers, and giant billboards. Rainbow Dash found herself feeling comfortable and at peace among
EHL Pt 8.5- All Star AdventureEquestria Hockey League Part 8.5 All-Star Adventureby XFizzleIt was day one of EHL All-Star Weekend. Twilight Sparkle and Rainbow Dash were excited to leave Ponyville behind for a small vacation and to mingle with the greatest the EHL had to offer. Since all the festivities were being held in Canterlot this year, Twilight and Rainbow were transported by a royal chariot to the capitol city. When their chariot landed, they were met by EHL Commissioner Gary Bettpony and the rest of the EHL executives. The royal palace was adorned in multiple banners and decorations. Each EHL team had their logo emblazoned on a banner as well as a magical floating portrait of their all-star selections. Twilight and Rainbow squealed excitedly when they saw their massive photo shot floating above the Golden Leafs' banner. As the all-star Golden Leafs trotted on toward the palace, a trumpet fanfare from the royal guards blared out, announcing their arrival.As they approached the royal
EHL Part V - ShootoutEquestria Hockey League Part V Shootout at the Appleloosa Corralby XFizzleCHOOOOOOO CHOOOOOOOOOOThe westward train chuggled along at great speed toward Appleloosa. The landscape gradually transformed from the white, winter wonderland of Ponyville to the brown, dry desert of the Western lands. On board the train were the Ponyville Golden Leafs, awaiting their arrival at their next opponent's city. In the lodging car, Twilight, Spike, and friends sat around bored with not much else to do."Ugh, it's so boring on this train. I knew I should've brought my books," said Twilight with a sigh."I know what we can do! We can braid each other's manes. It would be soooo fabulous!" Rarity exclaimed.Rainbow Dash stuck out her tongue in disgust. "I think I'd rather watch paint dry than do that frilly girly stuff.""Ah'm with Rainbow on that one," said Applejack. Rainbow then gave Applejack a hoof bump.Pinkie Pie bounced up and down from her seat bubbling with

What had that worm spat on him anyway? He wasn't used to something he couldn't just snap his fingers and make go away, except for the now gone Elements of Harmony."Yes, you're quite welcome," said Fluttershy, though her tone seemed a tad sharper than he was used to hearing from the Pegasus...most of the time. It wasn't like when she'd reigned him in before, but it was there. Maybe it was just the illness talking."Alright, we'll be headin' off, Fluttershy..." said Applejack, she and Rarity having lingered after Twilight left. "Yah sure yah can handle things?" she asked, her distrusting look more directed at the sick Draconequus than her friend."Yes, but thank you for your concern," the kind pegas

Rainbow Dash announced in excitement, flying into the library the moment the door opened. "Though it's no fair you can already fly…" muttered the pegasus somewhat bitterly, then cracked a smirk. "I was lookin' forwards to teaching yah myself."Twilight followed, flanked by her friends, a sleeping Spike on her back. She blushed slightly with an embarrassed look. "Well…I actually have no idea how I flew at the coronation. I think it might have just been like the flight instincts in baby pegasi. You might still get your chance…"Rainbow gave another smirk. "Well, it doesn't matter; I've still got a new flying buddy!""Yeah, looking forwards to it," the lavender mare replied, but her smile seemed a little more forced than it should have be
Applejack Character ReviewIt comes as something of a surprise that Applejack represents the spirit of Honesty within "Friendship is Magic". Although one would scarcely dare to call Applejack a liar, Honesty is perhaps not her greatest virtue. Nevertheless, Applejack has so many positive attributes honesty included that her representation in the Pilot as this particular embodiment of the Elements of Harmony makes sense, even if it seems a little odd at first. After all, what else would Applejack represent? Her character within the show is synonymous with both a maturity beyond her years and an unmatched compassion for her peers, to the extent that she becomes, to this viewer, the unofficial leader of the group.Although it is well-established that Twilight Sparkle is the 'main' member of the core six, Applejack has more qualities that could be associated to a lead protagonist. Her behaviour is almost always optimistic; rarely do we see an example where she succumbs to defeat or negativity, even whe
EHL Part VII - Royal TreatmentEquestria Hockey League Part VII Royal Treatmentby XFizzleThe following day after the Golden Leafs' exhilarating victory over the Fillydelphia Flyers, Ponyville buzzed with excitement and fervor despite the freezing temperatures. More and more Golden Leafs signs, merchandise, and other various trinkets were cropping up in each house and shop. Sugarcube Corner began selling Golden Leafs cupcakes, each pastry depicting the team's logo in delicious icing. Applejack, Apple Bloom, and Big Macintosh painted their apple selling cart to reflect the Golden Leafs' royal blue and gold colors. Rarity spent her days off stitching up Golden Leafs jerseys, hats, saddles, and even dresses, to sell at the Carousel Boutique. Golden Leafs fever was sweeping through Ponyville and Twilight and company couldn't have been more proud.Enjoying her day off, Twilight lounged in front of the fireplace. She was reading a new book, calmly flipping through the pages. As she turned to the next
Sisterhooves Social in the MMC-verseApplejack slept peacefully on her bed, when suddenly she felt some movement on it. This caused her to frown as she kept her eyes closed. "Winona, it's too early to play right now… maybe later.""SURPRISE!" two voices shouted from the other side of the bed."WHOA!" Applejack was startled and fell out of bed as she heard that, her hooves getting tangled with her sleeping robe. She fell on her back and quickly opened her eyes to look upwards."Good morning Applejack!" said a smiling Applebloom as she looked down at Applejack."Rise and shine, sleepyhead." said Pinkie Pie, also looking down at the orange mare. She was wearing an apron.Applejack slowly got up and looked at the two ponies in her room, "Applebloom? Pinkie Pie? What are you doing here? What time is it?""We made you breakfast, so you can eat in bed!" said Applebloom happily.Pinkie Pie produced a tray with warm pancakes and a glass
The Replacements: Chapter 1The ReplacementsWritten by ROBCakeran53Edited by CthuluigiChapter 1A set of double doors slammed open, casting only a glimpse of light into the pitch black room. A man, skinny and frail, was shoved through the light, falling onto his chest in the darkness. He quickly sat up, looking back in time to see the last trace of fluorescent light disappear as the doors closed."Do you know why you are here, Mr. Bowing?" A deep voice boomed through the room's darkness; the man's body began to shiver, unsure where the menacing voice came from."Uh, I'm, uh, not sure sir," the man stuttered."According to my files, you are one of the men in charge of maintaining cast and crew of our television department, is that correct?"The man simply nodded and, upon realizing that the pitch black room made it impossible to see, responded vocally, "Uh, y-yes sir.""And tell me Mr. Bowing, what show's cast do you exactly care for?""Uh, M-My Little Pony: F-Friendship is Magic, sir."There was a loud

Bill Clinton's autobiography is due to appear in stores in the US at the end of June. If there's a headline that comes from the book, says presidential scholar Alan Lichtman (history professor at American University and author of Keys to the White House), "it would have to be 'Clinton Explains Monica.' … How in the world did he get embroiled in that?" What perhaps makes this an interesting event for medievalists, and especially for those who have spent a great deal of time reading Boccaccio, is that its accompanying media frenzy provides ample space for reflection on certain themes that the Certaldese would no doubt have considered intriguing. This is not, as the casual reader of the Decameron might like to infer, a simple reference to Monica Lewinsky; rather, it is an invitation to consider the multifaceted perceptions of an intellectual who, like all mortals, was tempted by the pleasures of the flesh. A somewhat more pertinent, and for our purposes functional, point of departure may be offered in the recent comments of David Herbert Donald (professor emeritus of American history at Harvard and author of several books on Abraham Lincoln): "I'd like to see him do two things. First of all, I'd like to see him write a personal story on how he grew up and how he became who he was. Second, I'd like to see him write about how he shaped the politics of the White House, how a man of such great accomplishments also hurt himself by his foolishness." If reporters and gazetteers find it challenging to fathom Clinton's actions (and notably to derive from them anything other than disdainful astonishment), medievalists may take a bit of comfort in remembering that there are numerous precedents from which something substantially more enlightening can be gleaned. This is not to say, of course, that a Clinton of the Italian Trecento could have been immediately excused. It is fair to say, however, that his transgressions would have certainly been understood in a very different light and, unlike the modern witness to the Lewinsky affair, the medieval thinker would have been far more likely to derive from all this a deeper, more enduring lesson. Instead of seeing an incomprehensible faux pas in the ex-president's major mishap, Boccaccio's contemporaries — long acutely aware of the disharmony between prescriptive and descriptive perceptions of sexual behavior — already possessed certain epistemological categories into which Clinton's story could easily have been placed.
Let us take a couple analogous examples from late medieval popular culture and see where they lead us. The most immediately relevant, if not most obvious, example is Dante. Perhaps on account of the continuing, sometimes even scarcely detectable, influence of critics such as De Sanctis and of commentators like Tommaseo (you may add Busnelli, Gilson and whomever else you like), there is a willful tendency to discount what many of Dante's fourteenth-century readers took for granted: he was very fond of women. For the modern reader, this notion adds ripples to the still pond of interpretive analysis precisely because luxuria has come to be an all-permeating sin. (The contrary has occurred in the common perception of acedia, one might note, which has benefited greatly from the passage of several centuries. No longer indissolubly linked to wrath, despair and self-indulgent gloom, acedia now extends "shamelessly" from agnostics and couch potatoes to those who take trips on luxury liners to third world countries looking to buy that straw hat at a steal.) Boccaccio, one of Dante's brightest and most sincerely adoring fans, was rather less perplexed by the sexual indiscretions of the sommo poeta than most modern readers or CNN anchors would have been (e.g., Trattatello, first redaction, §172):
Tra cotanta virtù, tra cotanta scienzia, quanta dimostrato è di sopra essere stata in questo mirifico poeta, trovò ampissimo luogo la lussuria, e non solamente ne' giovani anni, ma ancora ne' maturi. Il quale vizio, come che naturale e comune e quasi necessario sia, nel vero non che commendare, ma scusare non si può degnamente. Ma chi sarà tra' mortali giusto giudice a condennarlo? Non io.
Whether Boccaccio came up with this idea while reading the love lyrics of Dante's Rime (as some critics like to suggest) or some other way, it makes very little difference. No Trecento reader seems to have lost nearly as much sleep, for example, over the cruces of the Donna Gentile, the Petrosa and the Pargoletta as have our own contemporaries (see Barbi, Nardi, Pietrobono, Marti, De Robertis…). While one could cite a number of reasons for the relative lack of critical concentration focused by the antichi commentatori on Dante's straying (from Beatrice, s'intende, not Gemma), the fact that his erotic tendencies are considered so lightly is inascribable to anything like the "tasteful" decision of pre-1970s journalists not to show FDR in a wheelchair or not to mention seeing Marilyn go through the back gates of Camelot. It was, instead, simply because luxuria was held to be less consequential than other vices, as is "geographically" demonstrated in the position of the lustful in both Inferno and Purgatorio. In his comments to Inferno V, Benvenuto explains (but the real gist is between the lines): "Est etiam notandum quid ista est minor pena respectu inferiorum. … Ad propositum ergo autor primo tractat de minori peccato inter capitalia, scilicet de luxuria, quia istud vicium, licet sit majoris infamiae, tamen est minoris culpae, quia est naturale, comune, et quodammodo necessarium" (Firenze: Barbèra, 1887, vol. 1, pp. 185–86). The phrase "sit majoris infamiae…" is a reference to a maxim attributed to Gregory but made famous by Alain de Lille in his Liber poenitentialis (PL vol. 210, col. 288B). The whole of the ditty runs like this: "Peccatum carnale est majoris infamiae, et minoris culpae; peccatum Spirituale majoris est culpae, et minoris infamiae." One begins to see here the pragmatic applications of the proverb "peccato celato è mezzo perdonato" (Dec. I.4.16). Benvenuto surely got the phrase "natural, common and in a way necessary" from Boccaccio who explains himself more fully in the Esposizioni: "è da sapere che la lussuria è vizio naturale, al quale la natura incita ciascuno animale, il quale di maschio e femina si procrea" (V all., 24; cf. also Dec. IV.1.35). The natural desire to "love," one of the columns upon which all of the Decameron is constructed, is the Achilles' heel of humanity. Time and again, Boccaccio asks us to be lenient towards those who give in to the natural sin of lust. Even the members of the brigata (built-in contemporary readers par excellence) take libidinous transgressions relatively lightly: "chi per amore, conoscendo le sue forze grandissime, perviene, da giudice non troppo rigido merita perdono" (Dec. VIII.1.4). In short, Boccaccio's works are full of examples of the pains of love or lust (it's not always easy to tell them apart) and we should certainly not be surprised that he comes to a tentatively indulgent conclusion. He was, after all, both dantista and petrarchista.
Despite Boccaccio's typically lenient attitude towards erotic allurement, however, he was also well read in theology and doctrine. No one should suggest that fornicazione or adulterio (two of the categories comprised by luxuria; cf. Esp. V, all., 64–68 and Summa Theologiæ IIa. IIae. q. 151) were victimless crimes. The question that now emerges is: just how bad is it? One potentially enlightening passage can be found in the Genealogia:
Illi [scil. Venero] rosas in tutelam datas aiunt, eo quod rubeant atque pungant, quod quidem libidinis proprium esse videtur. Nam turpitudine sceleris erubescimus et conscientia peccati vexamur aculeo; et sicut per tempusculum rosa delectat, parvoque lapsu temporis marcet, sic et libido parve brevisque delectationis et longe penitentie causa est, cum in brevi decidat quod delectat, et quod officit vexet in longum. (III.24.11)
Although the emotion here examined is not exactly love (note his use of "libido" and "delectatio" rather than "amor"), we may fairly say that Boccaccio is considering the juxtaposition of sexual attraction and moral hesitation in his not uncommon fusion of the classical and the medieval. Here we have Venus' sacred flower (cf. Ausonius' Idyllia 14) linked with a Christian commonplace: "in momento transit carnis delectatio, et omnis peccatorum commissio, et brevis quidem est hora transgressionis, non tamen brevis poena flagitii" (Gregory's Commentarii in librum I Regum V.3.15). What made luxuria perilous to many medieval thinkers was essentially divisible into two categories of ramifications: the sociological (for wives [and their angry husbands], daughters, illegitimate children and so on) and the spiritual ("et ideo consequens est quod per luxuriam maxime superiors vires deordinentur"). This last type is of particular importance since even baby steps toward lust could send one down the slippery slope. A few Trecento commentators of the Paolo and Francesca episode, including Lana and Pietro, refer to the Decretum Gratiani to explain this phenomenon: "luxuria tota nostra ratio absorbetur"). Most entertaining, however, is Guido da Pisa who goes into delightful detail. Lust, he writes, diminishes work, fame and intellect. He concludes:
luxuria enim, ut dicit beatus Ysidorus, carnem frangit, et fractam ducit celerius ad senectam. Dicunt enim medici quod id in quo maxima est delectatio est maxima nature consumptio. Et ratio huius est: in genitura enim, secundum Philosophum, fit decisio ex omnibus iuncturis et venis et musculis. Unde dicit quidam philosophus quod plus debilitat corpus unus coitus quam due minutiones; et ratio huius est quia cerebrum perturbat et minuit. Nam secundum naturales, semen est sanguis purissimus descendens a cerebro, qui per colationem venarum albescit. Unde illi qui immoderate luxurie deserviunt fatui fiunt, ut patet in Salomone, qui cum esset senex, stultus factus est, et depravatum est cor eius per mulieres ut sequeretur deos alienos. (p. 104 in Cioffari's ed.)
Now, to be fair, it could indeed be that the Starr Probe (ABC News, uninterested in the pun, regularly referred to the Commission with this label) exchanged immunity for the blue dress out of fear that the President had been unduly accelerating his … senility. To a fourteenth-century mind, sexual excess was, beyond its own transgressive qualities, a warning sign that other immoral or imprudent actions could be just over the horizon. Starr and his over $40 million dollar investigation were vociferously cognizant of this idea but neglected its "natural" quality.
In addition to Dante, other figures were frequently cited in Trecento treatments of the sin as well. Particularly remarkable in this light is Solomon whom Boccaccio brings up in the final book of the Genealogia as "testis certissimus imbecillitatis humane" (XV.9.14). Whereas Guido implies that Solomon wandered into idolatry on account of sex-inspired senility (we can only imagine how much energy must be dedicated to 700 wives and 300 concubines), Boccaccio lays the blame upon one woman, the Queen of Sheba:
Salomon[…] fuerit cum egyptiaca coniuge, que, astu femineo advertens, quoniam infelicis viri animam formositate sua laqueasset, et suos deos extollere avida, nunc amplexu venereo, nunc mellitis saviis, nunc blandiciis muliebribus, nunc petulca lasciviis, nunc precibus, nunc lacrimis, quas obsequiosissimas habent femine, nunc indignatione composita absque intermissione non diebus omnibus tantum, sed noctibus amantis viri animum impugnabat. O quam gravia et intolerabilia sunt dilectarum mulierum, et potissime nocturna certamina! Hic tandem, dum timeret mulieris gratiam, quam summe diligebat, amictere, terga dedit, et viribus armate femine inermis succubuit. (XV.9.15–16)
In this account Solomon, blessed with wisdom and special grace, is duped by his temptatrix. Boccaccio was probably thinking here of (Pseudo?) Augustine who was familiar with this carnal struggle ("inter omnia Christianorum certamina sola duriora sunt prælia castitatis, ubi quotidiana est pugna, et rara victoria," Sermones suppositi 293), but what comes across most clearly in the passage's wider context is not only the danger of women's snares, but also the fact that even the wisest of men are susceptible to intellectual hiccoughs. That concupiscence is antithetical to wisdom was (and still is) a common notion. What makes Solomon so fascinating is the fact that even his boundless knowledge was no defense for the innate weakness of the flesh. No small amount of head-scratching was done in the Middle Ages in an attempt to get a cognitive grasp on Solomon's lesson. (Philip of Harveng, one of Bernard of Clairvaux's antagonists, even composed a treatise entitled Responsio de damnatione Salomonis.) Consequently, then, his grave failing lends itself effortlessly to the exemplum.
The numerous instances, both in literature and in art, of a respected man who loses all — or loses out — thanks to his inability to resist a woman's charms is a motif from which more can be gleaned by looking at the figures involved than at the polygenetic plot itself. Among these, we may count not only Dante and Solomon but Adam, Samson, Hercules, Hippocrates and many others as well. Some of the most widely known and most appreciated versions dealt with wise or culturally weighty men precisely because of the apparent incompatibility of reason and lust. Jacques de Vitry is one of the first named compilers of one particular legend that was subsequently disseminated even more widely in the Lai d'Aristote of Henri d'Andeli. According to the tradition, Alexander the Great, having grown weary of his teacher's moralizing on the evils of temptation, arranged to have him cede to the enticement of his mistress (Phyllis, Campaspe [better known in literature for her role as the irresistible model of Apelles; cf. Pliny, Historia naturalis, 35.79–97] or Pankaste depending on the version). She promised him her sexual attention provided that he allow her to ride him like a horse. Once the Philosopher had assumed this rather undignified equine position, however, Alexander popped out of hiding to expose the hypocrisy of his master. If Solomon is the chief example of the amusing tale of the lapsus sapientis in the Judeo-Christian line and Aristotle in the Greek, it should not be surprising that we find Vergil in the Roman. According to his legend (meticulously traced by Comparetti in the well-known study Virgilio nel Medioevo), Vergil is delighted when the daughter of the Emperor of Rome agrees to meet with him. She convinces the poet, however, that their amorous rendezvous is possible only if he gets inside a box, sometimes a basket, that will be hauled up to her window. To Vergil's great dismay (but to the enjoyment of the reader), he is left suspended in the air to be derided by the citizens of Rome. Although Boccaccio does not elaborate expressly on the anecdotes related to Aristotle and Vergil, there can be little doubt that he, like most of his contemporaries, was familiar with them.
In any event, what concerns us here is not an adaptation of a particular tale or even the smoking gun that is always affectionately polished and prominently displayed by source seekers; we are reconstructing an unabashedly anachronistic "Boccaccian" reading of the lessons to be learned by America's fascination with Clinton's folly. It seems worthwhile at this point to open a volume of Boccaccio's letters, specifically to the one sent to the "Mavortis milex extrenue," in order to see luxuria at work firsthand:
Sed cum iam noxiret in diem, et ego penes busta Maronis securus et incautus ambularem, subito suda mulier, ceu fulgur descendens, apparuit nescio quomodo, meis auspitiis undique moribus et forma conformis. O! quam in eius apparitione obstupui! Certe tantum quod magis aliud videbar esse quam ego, ymmo quod admodo larvale simulacrum me sciebam; et sic exterminatus animi actonitus in amentia vigilans sonniabar, destrictis adeo diu pupulis an vigilarem scire querebam. Tandem stupor subsequentis thonitrui terrore cessavit. Nam sicut divinis corruscationibus illico subcedunt tonitrua, sic inspecta flamma pulcritudinis huius, amor terribilis et imperiosus me tenuit atque ferox, tanquam dominus pulsus a patria post longum exilium sola in sua repatrians, quidquid eius contrarium fuerat in me vel occidit vel expulit vel ligavit. … Sed quid? Post diutinam lassitudinem gratiam merui dominantis, quam ego alacris, inargutulus tamen, per tempusculum conservavi. (p. 1066 in the P. G. Ricci, Ricciardi ed.)
While it is true that this passage comes in large part from Dante's epistle to Moroello Malaspina (and that some critics, though less convincingly, encourage us to believe the mulier there is Lady Philosophy), one would do well to follow Ricci's notes down to the references to Apuleius' Metamorphoses III.22, a passage of foggy-headed forehead-rubbing on the morning that follows Lucius' Bacchic lovemaking with Photis. If Boccaccio's correspondent (Petrarch?) were up on his reading, the overturning (or elaboration) of Dante's encounter would seem quite entertainingly racy indeed. It takes little imagination to conjure up a wild love scene in Vergil's Naples although the fling lasted only per tempusculum, precisely the phrase Boccaccio used in his discussion of the fleeting duration of lust's pleasures. Anyone who spends too much time reading Dante (as in Sermini's thirteenth novella) and not enough with Apuleius may miss here the intensity of our author's passions. The "trouble with women," we may conclude, is not just that they lead men into temptation and anguish. We know that much from innumerable Scripture passages, sermons and lived experience (not to mention this year's obligatory re-reading of the Canzoniere). The greatest danger lies in the fact that men cannot resist them (W le papere!) and that the intellectual must face the inevitable distractions they present.
Among the innumerable examples of the perplexities faced by scholars in love, perhaps the most distressing (especially for those with castration anxiety) is that of Abelard and Heloise. In this passage from the Historia calamitatum Abelard paints a clear picture of the struggle between the intellectual and the emotional:
Quid plura? Primum domo una coniungimur, postmodum animo. Sub occasione itaque discipline, amori penitus vaccabamus, et secretos recessus, quos amor optabat, studium lectionis offerebat. Apertis itaque libris, plura de amore quam de lectione verba se ingerebant, plura erant oscula quam sententie; sepius ad sinus quam ad libros reducebantur manus, crebrius oculos amor in se reflectebat quam lectio in scripturam dirigebat. … Et quo me amplius hec voluptas occupaverat, minus philosophie vaccare poteram et scolis operam dare. Tediosum mihi vehementer erat ad scolas procedere vel in eis morari; pariter et laboriosum, cum nocturnas amori vigilias et diurnas studio conservarem. Quem etiam ita negligentem et tepidum lectio tunc habebat, ut iam nichil ex ingenio sed ex usu cuncta proferrem, nec iam nisi recitator pristinorum essem inventorum, et si qua invenire liceret, carmina essent amatoria, non philosophie secreta; quorum etiam carminum pleraque adhuc in multis, sicut et ipse nosti, frequentantur et decantantur regionibus, ab his maxime quos vita similis oblectat. Quantam autem mestitiam, quos gemitus, que lamenta nostri super hoc scolares assumerent, ubi videlicet hanc animi mei occupationem immo perturbationem presenserunt, non est facile vel cogitare.
This description (if you can get over the temptation to see in it the amicably despicable Humbert Humbert after a morning lecture at Bard College) sums up the real mental turmoil that lies at the root of the problem. This inescapable conflict, whose waters are only muddied by ubiquitous misogynistic motifs in so many other writers, is doubtlessly the aspect that troubled Boccaccio most.
How can one reconcile the very human desire to love with the grand pursuit of knowledge? There are two sides to this debate and Boccaccio weighs in on both. Before letting ourselves be compassionately convinced by the despondency of an Abelard or a Fiammetta (and before putting down the Corbaccio to ponder the Decameron's suggestion that Amor vincit omnia), we should take another look at Boccaccio's translation of Jerome's Adversus Iovinianum (Esp. XVI.28–44). At its beginning he writes:
Recita santo Ieronimo in un libro, il quale egli compose Contro a Gioviniano eretico, che Teofrasto, il quale fu solenne filosofo e uditore d'Aristotile, compose un libro il quale si chiama De nuptiis, e in parte di quello domanda se il savio uomo debba prender moglie; e avvegna che egli, a se medesimo rispondendo, dicesse, dove ella sia bella, ben costumata e nata d'onesti parenti, e se esso fosse sano e ricco, il savio alcuna volta poterla prendere, incontanente aggiunse che queste cose rade volte intervengono tutte nelle noze, e però il savio non dover prender moglie, per ciò che essa, inanzi all'altre cose, impedisce lo studio della filosofia, né è alcun che possa a' libri e alla moglie servire.
These ideas are completely harmonious with the sympathetic biographer's style of the Trattatello, the text to which we shall now return simply because it is the one that comes closest to giving us insights on Clinton. Just about all of Jerome's letter comes through here as well (cf. esp. 2nd redaction, §§ 36 and 39–46), but it is in the first redaction that Boccaccio reaches a more practical, evenhanded conclusion: "Adunque tra tanti e tali (scil. other victims of love) non iscusato, ma, accusato con assai meno curva fronte che solo, può passare il nostro poeta" (§ 174). The ex-president, then, when all is said and done, is no different from countless others who have gone before him. We should be no more inclined to see an unforgivable scandal in the Lewinsky affair than a tear-jerking love story, even though it may occasionally be entertaining to comment vigorously on one side or the other. It is, at the end of the day, true that Clinton "hurt himself by his foolishness." Whereas the vast majority of pundits cast this situation as an imponderable puzzle, however, common experience should prove far more useful to anyone who sincerely wants to come to grips with it. Perhaps a helpful parallelism can be drawn between the sermons of the predicatori and the press of the mass media: what Clinton did was inappropriate and his actions condemnable. Handier still is a comparison at the level of the individual: only the arrogant or the obtuse would fail to see that the intellectual who falls to temptation despite its risks — whether Solomon, Vergil or even Clinton — embodies a moral lesson for whomever wishes to learn from it. In short, more can be derived by approaching the lapsus sapientis from the earthier perspective of the literary anecdote; we may learn more about ourselves from the image of Clinton in a wicker basket than Clinton in a witness box.
In conclusion, especially for those who were hoping in these pages to see some political mud slinging, we should bring up one other little fact that has frequently gone unnoticed, if only for the benefit of those Republicans who would prefer to judge the "natural vice" from the saddle of a white steed (or very large ermine). This past spring, Lynne Cheney, wife of vice-president Dick Cheney and mother of the gay activist Mary Cheney, successfully stopped Penguin USA's attempt to reprint her 1981 bodice-ripper entitled Sisters, a historical romance set in the Wild West that includes brothels, attempted rapes and a lesbian love affair. The protagonist of the book is Sophie, a condom-carrying Wyoming woman (condoms in the Wild West?) who runs away from convent school to join the theater. There she comes under the influence of a music-hall celebrity who teaches her how to "enjoy" men, but not get "trapped." Yes, it is fiction; but the ideas here are all the same. A sample paragraph for the curious:
"Let us go away together, away from the anger and imperatives of men. There will be only the two of us, and we shall linger through long afternoons of sweet retirement. In the evenings I shall read to you while you work your cross-stitch in the firelight. And then we shall go to bed, our bed, my dearest girl."
Admittedly not the type of prose that would really keep one burning the midnight candle, it is nevertheless informed by the same base — but so human — fascination with lust (celebrated serial sexual gratification fairly described under the rubric De luxuria) that may now cause one to stifle a snicker at the water cooler upon hearing about the efficiency of an intern.
But wait. What about Paula Jones, Gennifer Flowers? Linda Tripp's button-hole microphone? … No; guarda e passa, ché voler ciò udire è bassa voglia.

I�m looking for info. On a Delfino Ramos who was born in San Antonio, Texas we do not know what year. All we know is that he was married to Matilde (?) Cisneros at one time the story is she died in childbirth (when and where we don�t know). My grandmother Maria Conception Flores was their child she was born May 21, 1929 in San Antonio, Texas, we do know that they had other children: Delfino Ramos Jr., Jose Ramos, Daniel Ramos, Manuel Ramos my grandmother has never given us any more info. Therefore, I can only go by what my mom remembers. My grandma Ama (Conception) married Jose Maria Flores and he lived in Laredo, Texas born in Sabinas Hidalgo Mexico. So some time Delfino had to have moved to Laredo, Texas. Some time in the 1940�s they moved to Ohio first to Bradner Oh then Perrysburg I know for sure because that�s where I grew up. I know this may not be enough info for somebody to go on but if these names sound familiar to any one please let me know. THANKS SOOO MUCH!!! Notify Administrator about this message?

Comment posted Council issues prompt response on Martha Payne's NeverSeconds clampdown by Gus Mackay.
Are the snp to take credit for the money raised ?
Gus Mackay also commented
- Not for the first time you are talking rubbish. The main point of criticism is of the mess the council have made of this situation. The council is snp led so the buck stops with them. As I have already said snp cybernats would not have let something like this go.
The nine year old girl you refer to(her name is Martha by the way) comes out of this with tremendous credit, and of course the council should never have imposed the ban.
I along with family and friends have been donating to this charity for many years, I have several friends who are dinner ladies, and as for free speech and censorship! my opinions on that would clearly differ from yours.
- I don't think there is any doubt you are confused.
- For Robert,
You flatter yourself, to suggest I could be upset at the performance of MacCuish is rather feeble,
If this is a good example of his leadership then god help us.
He clearly said "it's a good thing to do changing your mind and I have certainly done that"
As for opportunities to have a go at the snp, i'm sure there will be plenty in the months and years to come if this is anything to go by.For Anne,
This is not about scoring points against the snp, I can assure
you I most certainly do not worry away at it.Hope for the future is important, and if that means finding fault with this council then so be it.
Was it not so long ago you and your cybernat colleagues were on here day and night constantly trying to destabilise the previous council?
- It's not about what you posted it's about what MacCuish actually said. Listen to what HE said!
- To Robert,
Ferryman may well have been asking a question (again), he was just trying to get one of you to admit Councillor MacCuish was responsible for the ban.
If you listen you will hear him say so.

I can barely play anymore because queue times are too long (30-40 minutes sometimes)
Ryze is top 5 champ for sure. So yes? Anyway we need ranked. I have no idea why its not implemented yet.
While my top 5 not including shaco because i dont know how it affected the patch is Yorick, Poppy, Ryze, Warwick, Vayne. He is hands down the best caster, with low cooldowns full power, can 1 on 1 no problem, scales well during the whole game, push well, he is good against assasins and bruisers , or at least better than most casters. Basically he is the best Ap nuker in dominion since he can fight non stop and deal with most champs, he is one of the champs in dominion that isnt scared of anyone. That puts ryze that high. *** The argument that they are waiting for it to be balanced its not truth, at least not as worded "as well as they can" every game can always be improved on balance. If game developers would wait for that moment, games would NEVER EVER be released. So thats not the reason, im not sure whats the reason but thats not it.

York Meadows Caravan and Camping Park
York Meadows Caravan Park at Sheriff Hutton is set in an idyllic location surrounded by rolling farmland, nestled in the stunning and tranquil splendour of the Howardian Hills and Vale of York.
Situated in a perfect area to explore the hustle and bustle of the Historic City of York, or perhaps one of the greatest private residences in Britain, Castle Howard Stately Home just 5 miles from the park. Not to mention the Coastal areas which have something to offer for all the family, or get away from it all and get back to nature, exploring the North Yorkshire Moors full of magnificent scenery. With a network of public footpaths nearby such as the Ebor Way, Wold Way and Centenary Way, this is truly a sensational area to discover, full of outstanding natural beauty, offering unforgettable walks.
The Park is set on the outskirts of Sheriff Hutton. Sheriff Hutton is a village full of unique character with the Castle Ruins dominating the village skyline. The Castle has links with numerous people including Richard III. The village is a short walk away from the park, meaning there is easy access to pubs and shops.
York Meadows Caravan Park is open 1st March - 31st October. Tucked away along a private lane, it offers hard standing, grass and super pitches for Motorhomes/Touring/Tents and Seasonal Caravans. The park has an exclusive area of new and used Holiday Homes For Sale.
Owners, Don and Barbara Armstrong, also own Golden Square Caravan Park, Nr Helmsley, renowned for Loo of the Year Awards, 5 AA Pennant rating, 5 stars from the Tourist Board and Gold David Bellamy Awards. The standards are set to be in the same place at York Meadows.
