Application filed April 15, 1911.
T 0 all whom t may concern Be it known that l', lNiLLiAM C. BnrNnoRr, a citizen of the United States, and resident of Litchfield, Montgomery county, Illinois, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Combined Taps and Beamers, of which the following is a specification containing a full, clear, and exact description, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, forming a part hereof.
My invention relates to improvements in combined taps and reamers, and the object of my invention is to construct an improved integral tool designed to tap or form internal threads in one portion of an opening and to ream out or enlarge, without cutting threads or tapping, the remainder of the opening.
lVith the above purpose in View my invention consists in certain novel features of construction and arrangement of parts as will be hereinafter more fully described, pointed out in the claim and illustrated by the accompanying drawings, in which- Figure 1 is an elevation of the complete tool; Fig. 2 is a transverse, sectional elevation of the reamer portion of the tool taken on the line 2 2 of Fig. l; and Fig. 8 is a transverse, sectional elevation of the tap portion of the tool taken on the line 3 3 of Fig. 1.
Referring by numerals to the accompanying drawings: 1 designates the body portion of the tool which is substantially cylindrical, and formed integral with thebodv vportion is a non-circular portion 2 which is arranged so that the tool may be secured in a brace or other means not shown for the operation of the tool. The lower end of the body portion 1 has a diameter slightlv larger than the remainder of the body as clearly shown in Fig. 1, and, at the point where the body portion 1 increases in diameter and extending from that point to the lowermost end of the tool are the longitudi-4 nal grooves 3. The portions 4; of the walls oitl said grooves are sharpened at the point of greatest diameter and at their lower ends to form thereat cutting edges and, as clearly shown in Fig. 2, the said sharpened parts extend beyond the periphery and lower end of the body portion 1. It will thus be seen that the said body has its inner end gradually increased in diameter toward its inner end, at which point project radially Specication of Letters Patent.
Patented July 11, 1916.
serial No. 621,183.
beyond the body proper a series of laterallyprojecting reamer-cutters.
The points 5 of the reamer portion extend only to the periphery of the body l so that, when the tool is in operation to ream or enlarge an opening, the portions 4 are the active portions in cutting, the balance of the reaming portion of the tool receding so as to save stock and make the tool as light as possible consistent with ample strength, and also to provide clearance and hence serve to makethe tool, in a measure, self-sharpening as well as to make a tool requiring less :c lfort t'o operate than one in which the cut- -ting surface contacts with the full interior face of the opening being enlarged.
The tapping portion of the tool, or that portion designed for the cutting of threads, consists of the longitudinal ribs 6 lying between the grooves 3, the faces of which are provided with the usual threads 7. The tap portion is of ordinary construction except that the points 8 of the threaded ribs have slightly increased diametrical dimensions over the points 9 of the said ribs, the points 8 being the forward points and the faces of the ribs receding for clearance so that the tool will Operate more easily. This tool is designed primarily for use in the repair of machinery, for instance in steam tractionengine boiler work when a bracket or the like, which is secured to the boiler' by bolts or cap-screws, becomes loosened and is not steam-tight the bolt, which connects the bracket with the shell of the boiler, is removed and one of my improved tools of the proper size is introduced, the tap portion cutting new threads into the shell of the boiler forming a tapped hole slightly larger than the previous hole and the reamer portion cutting a hole in the bracket or the like slightly larger.
After the larger alined holes have been made, as just described, a larger screw or bolt is passed through the hole in said bracket and into the threaded hole in said boiler, and the leak in the boiler will be effectually stopped. Furthermore, the constant vibration of an engine in motion, which tends to loosen smaller screws or bolts, will not so quickly loosen the larger bolts or screws which have been placed in po sition by the use of my improved tool, in the manner above described. To illustrate further, suppose a bracket on the boiler of a traction-engine has been secured to the boiler by means of J2 inch bolts, which have become so loose that the steam leaks around them. To repair such leaks, the l; inch leaking Vbolts are removed: then the alined holes in the bracket and boiler are enlarged by means of my improved tool, and fg bolts are inserted; all of which may7 be accomplished very quickly and efficiently.
VI am aware that heretofore there have been tools the eXact reverse of my improved tool which tools had reamers at the lowermost end of the tool for enlarging a hole and then a tapping portion to tap or form threads inthe entire hole. `With my improved tool a portion of the hole may be tapped or threaded and the portion outside of the threaded portion be enlarged without cutting threads therein.
I claim:
An improved tapping and reaming tool, all formed integral, and comprising a cylin- Gopies o f this patent may be obtained for drieal body proper, the inner part of which is provided with longitudinal-grooves, and is gradually increased in diameter toward its inner end, the Walls of said grooves being sharpened at the point of greatest diameter and at their lower ends, to form thereat a series of laterally and downwardly projecting integral reaming-cutters which extend radially and longitudinally beyond the said body proper; and a tap-screw formed integral with said enlarged inner end of said body, but having a lesser diameter throughout its length than the extreme diameter' oi the said diametrically-enlarged portion of the said body.
In testimony whereof, I have signed my name to this specilication, in presence of two subscribing witnesses.

Just the right pink-colored roses freeze dried ?
I want to put them in the some vases or compotes to try and give a more feminine, shabby chic look to my bedroom.
Where do you get them? Maybe they are paper but they look just right and the craft stores don't have them. Kind of expensive?
I would love to find them on line.
Etsy has the most beautiful flowers made of air dry clay which can be made in any color. There are also flowers made of paper and fabric which are stunning. Youtube also has dozens of tutorials on how to make flowers out of almost anything. Sometimes once you see how something is made, it becomes clear that it's really pretty easy. The air dry flowers on Etsy are expensive, but amazing!
Thanks a bunch, leslie if I can call you that. I will look on Etsy. So curious to know what air dry clay is.
I really would like to buy them and not make them. Feeling low on energy and want life and prettiness in the bedroom. I don't want the last thing I see on this earth to be a gloomy room. Even thinking of ordering curtains that I really wanted instead of what I have. And some happier pictures that I can relate to.
If they are expensive, I can air dry cut flowers by hanging them up side down. Just so the pink is varied a bit with lighter pink, like the nice ones are. They last a very long time. However, I am interested in freeze dried too. For wreath decorations that I ordered I used to be able to get freeze dried that were great. I can't find them now. Florists say they don't carry them. Not time and cost effective perhaps.
Try some websites like save-on-crafts.com, especially the ones that cater to the wedding biz. Not sure what "just the right pinck-color" is, but they have these, for example:

Basil Flowering
Ever since my basil plants began flowering, they have turned pale green. Is there a correlation? I have not changed any thing else in my routine, and they still taste good, just turned really pale, not wilting.
Thank you.
I'm not sure why this is happening but I know when plants start to flower, they're using up lots of energy and nutrients in the process. Perhaps a little bit of fert might help? And, if you won't be using all of the blossoms (for seed saving), then I suggest you snip most of them off. The plants may perk up after that.
I try to keep all the flowers removed as long as possible on basil, to keep them producing better leaves. They get really determined, though, and will eventually work to bloom despite efforts to the contrary, which is usually a sign that they are done for the season. This is a good reason for succession planting, starting basil every two weeks or so in smaller batches, so that when it starts flowering you just harvest and remove the whole batch, reseeding once they are removed.

Today I made my first gluten-free pastry/crust. I've made many other offerings from other peoples kitchens but today I wanted to have a go at creating my own. And you know what? I am quite pleased with it even if I do say so myself. I wanted a crust that held together and had a great texture and taste. I didn't want it to be just the case the filling sat in. I already knew what kind of filling I was shooting for as I've been scribbling and re-scribbling about it for a couple of weeks. I'd picked up some beautiful little orange plum cherry tomatoes on Tuesday and knew I wanted them to be the star. And so I found myself stood at my kitchen counter with this little bag of tomatoes...and I got creative. lol.
The crust came together quite easily as I am now used to the gluten-free making process. So much so when I made wheat flatbreads for Ann at the weekend, the gloopy sticky gluteness of the dough freaked me out. lol. I wanted the crust to have a richness that I've found only comes with adding ground nuts so I chose almonds and that was my real starting point. I didn't want the sweetness of cashews as I knew I would be using coconut oil and that would be all the sweetness I wanted. Once all the ingredients were in the bowl and I was mixing/kneading by hand it came together quite quickly. And pressing the dough out into my pie dish wasn't difficult although I was a little concerned at how dry it felt. But I really didn't need to worry as it pressed out well, baked well and cut well. You could even hold your slice of tart in your hand to eat it if desired. Yep..it held together that well. The baked crust had all the elements that I wanted. Rich without feeling heavy on the tum, it held together and had a great flavour which complemented the filling well. Phew! First attempt...a success! Can I breathe now?
I wanted my filling to have a creaminess but I didn't want to use tofu today. I wanted that to come from a beany mix. I had a bag of small shallots so I put them to good use along with a clove of garlic and sauteed them until just soft and finished them off with a little steam from some veggie stock. I blitzed the chosen beans down in a processor and then added hot stock and blended until the beans were fluffed and..yep..creamy! lol. I folded the shallot mix into the beans and then spread it out over the crust. The texture of the shallots in amongst the bean mix worked well. Next up was the tomatoes and fresh thyme.
The completed tart was delicious. I loved the rich crust with the creamy filling and enjoyed the burst of sweetness from the tomatoes in every bite. That combined with the fresh thyme which rounded out the flavours...tart heaven! OK so I wouldn't eat this every day but it would definitely be one of my
High Days and Holidays
dishes. A treat indeed...
Rocket & Roses Creamy Tomato & Thyme Tart with Almond Black Pepper Crust (vegan & gluten-free)
R&R Tomato & Thyme Tart with Almond/Black Pepper Crust
Makes 1 10" tart
(Original recipe from the Rocket & Roses Vegan Kitchen)
For the crust:
3/4 cup ground almonds
1/2 cup buckwheat flour
1/4 cup brown rice flour
1 tbsp physillum husk
1 tbsp chia seeds
1/2 tsp Himalayan sea salt
very generous amount of freshly cracked black pepper
2 tbsp coconut oil, melted
3-4 tbsp very cold water
For the filling:
1st layer
1 14oz tin of cannellini beans, rinsed and drained
4 tbsp hot veggie stock
1 tsp coconut oil - optional
10 small shallots, peeled and finely sliced
1 garlic clove, peeled finely sliced
freshly grated black pepper
sprinkling of fresh thyme leaves
2nd layer
12 orange plum cherry tomatoes, halved
handful of fresh thyme leaves
Pre-heat the oven to 350'F/180'C/GM 4. Lightly grease a 9-10" pie dish with a little coconut oil. Set to one side.
In a large bowl combine the dry crust ingredients and mix well. Pour the melted coconut oil into the centre and work through the dry mix until a crumbly texture is achieved. Add in the cold water and using your hands bring the mix together until it hold a solid shape. It will still be slightly crumbly around the edges. Place the crust into the pie dish and slowly press the dough out evenly across the dish and up the sides. When it is an even layer go around the top edge and press into a firm line. Place in the pre-heated oven for 10-15 minutes. It won't go golden brown but you will smell that it's ready. (I hope? lol) Set to one side to cool.
In a skillet heat the oil and gently saute the shallots and garlic until soft. Towards the end spoon a tbsp of the hot stock into the shallots and cover and let them steam in the stock for a minute. Remove from the heat and set to one side.
In a small processor or blender blend the beans down and add the remaining stock towards the end to make a creamy texture. Stir into the shallot mix and stir well the evenly distribute. Spread the shallot/bean mix over the base of the crust and then add more in layers and smooth over after the last dollop. Sprinkle the fresh thyme leaves over the mix and grate a little freshly cracked black pepper over the top.
The freshly baked tart
Take the halved tomatoes and place them around the top of the tart in whatever design you fancy. Press them down slightly into the shallot/bean mix. Sprinkle over the remaining fresh thyme leaves. Place in the pre-heated oven for 15-20 minutes...depending on how cooked you like your tomatoes. At the end of the baking time remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly before cutting into the tart for serving.
Proof that the crust cuts well and holds its own...so happy! lol
Thanks for stopping by and I hope your Thursday is a good one...
NB: This is my creation. I am very happy for you to use it and share it. I simply ask that you give credit where it's due as I always try to..Many thank. Namaste ~R~

Holy Rule for Nov. 3
Expand Messages
Some newer and more tragic numbers have emerged from the Baghdad Syrian Catholic Cathedral hostage taking: 37 are dead, including all of the attackers, one of whom activated a suicide bomb, and 56 wounded. Hopefully no more will be added to the killed list, which alas, includes three priests who were celebrating the Liturgy. Prayers for them all and for the brave libertors who stormed the Church to end the crisis.
Prayers for Meredith, Jared and Jordan who are preparing for Confirmation. May the Holy Spirit touch them and lead them!
Prayers for the eternl rest of Maureen, who passed away suddenly on the Feast of All Saints. Bless her and her family who are in mourning.
Lord, help us all as You know and will. God's will is best. All is mercy and
grace, God is never absent, praise Him! Thanks so much. JL

Chapter 27: How Solicitous the Abbot Should Be for the
Let the Abbot be most solicitous in his concern for delinquent
brethren, for "it is not the healthy but the sick who need a
physician" (Matt 9:12) And therefore he ought to use every means
that a wise physician would use. Let him send senpectae, that is,
brethren of mature years and wisdom, who may as it were secretly
console the wavering brother
and induce him to make humble satisfaction; comforting him that he
may not "be overwhelmed by excessive grief" (2 Cor. 2:7), but that,
as the Apostle says, charity may be strengthened in him (2 Cor.
2:8). And let everyone pray for him.
For the Abbot must have the utmost solicitude and exercise all
prudence and diligence
lest he lose any of the sheep entrusted to him. Let him know that
what he has undertaken is the care of weak souls and not a tyranny
over strong ones; and let him fear the Prophet's warning through
which God says, "What you saw to be fat you took to yourselves, and
what was feeble you cast away" (Ezec. 34:3,4). Let him rather
imitate the loving example of the Good Shepherd who left the ninety-
nine sheep in the mountains
and went to look for the one sheep that had gone astray, on whose
weakness He had such compassion that He deigned to place it on His
own sacred shoulders and thus carry it back to the flock (Luke 15:4-
This is the chapter that makes the entire penal code (as it is
usually termed,) of the Holy Rule clear. Drop this one and it DOES
become mean. The Abbot (or parent or teacher or boss or spouse,) is
actually called to exercise super concern for the fallen. Hence, it
is clear that the whole purpose of punishment in the Holy Rule is
only to heal, to reform. It is an action of great hope, not a cop
out of exclusion, not simply writing a person off because of the
difficulties presented.
How often do we "punish" another, or even ourselves, as a means of
write-off, of abdication of our responsibility to love? Both the
Gospel and St. Benedict teach us that is wrong, it is not a
Christian response and not at all the way we should "conveniently"
unload ourselves of a troubled human being in our lives.
All of us charged with the care of others must pay close attention
to this chapter. It is so easy to love the "perfect" child or the
whiz kid student. It is so easy to heap acceptance and confident
affirmation on the types of employees who least need it, while the
strugglers and the strays have their feelings of inferiority
confirmed. People of any age quite often stoop to the level that
others expect of them. We must offer them the best chance we can to
do and be all that they can.
The world will offer all the empty praise that is necessary to the
successful. It is the shallow way of the world to do so. Christians
and monastics, however, are called to be OTHER than the world.
There has to be something topsy-turvy in the way we love that
becomes puzzlingly apparent. We have to love the underdog, even
when the underdog is driving us slowly nuts. This doesn't mean we
don't love the holy and good ones, it means we never, never fail to
love the plodders. It means that we always remember that we are
in many ways ourselves.
Love and prayers,
Jerome, OSB

******Somehow I skipped Nov. 28 and ran the 30th yesterday, so here's the
reading for the 28th to catch up.
March 29, July 29, November 28
Chapter 48: On the Daily Manual Labor
From the Calends of October until the beginning of Lent,
let them apply themselves to reading
up to the end of the second hour.
At the second hour let Terce be said,
and then let all labor at the work assigned them until None.
At the first signal for the Hour of None
let everyone break off from her work,
and hold herself ready for the sounding of the second signal.
After the meal
let them apply themselves to their reading or to the Psalms.
On the days of Lent,
from morning until the end of the third hour
let them apply themselves to their reading,
and from then until the end of the tenth hour
let them do the work assigned them.
And in these days of Lent
they shall each receive a book from the library,
which they shall read straight through from the beginning.
These books are to be given out at the beginning of Lent.
But certainly one or two of the seniors should be deputed
to go about the monastery
at the hours when the sisters are occupied in reading
and see that there be no lazy sister
who spends her time in idleness or gossip
and does not apply herself to the reading,
so that she is not only unprofitable to herself
but also distracts others.
If such a one be found (which God forbid),
let her be corrected once and a second time;
if she does not amend,
let her undergo the punishment of the Rule
in such a way that the rest may take warning.
Moreover, one sister shall not associate with another
at inappropriate times.
Lectio divina, sacred reading, is the Benedictine form of
contemplation, more ancient than many later forms, both Carmelite and
Athonite. Being so ancient, it comes with very few directions. Much
of its "method" has been developed and handed down by monastics over
the centuries since St. Benedict.
Even in that embellished form, it remains a very, very simple and
efficient means to contemplative prayer. One simply reads Scripture
or the Fathers (or Mothers!) slowly, reflectively, ruminating (like a
cow chewing its cud!) on each word and verse. As St. Romuald later
observed, one waits like a chick for whatever its mother gives it.
One does not read to get through the book. One reads to see if and
when the Holy Spirit calls us to higher prayer with a word or phrase
that strikes the heart. At that point, one should follow one's heart
and not worry about finishing the page! Cleared for takeoff!
It is interesting that St. Benedict weaves all these schedules of
contemplative reading and prayer together with his manual labor
concerns, without any ado. There's another example of the dignity and
holiness of work in a Benedictine theology. Our work, too, is prayer.
It must be.
We must, somehow, learn to be all prayer. That same
ruminative mindfulness that colors our lectio must color our labor as
well. It is a different form of attention, a different form of
prayer, but it is prayer nonetheless! Just ask any gardener or cook
with a mystical heart or, for that matter, any toilet cleaner or
diaper changer of the same ilk!
The Carmelites prescribe mental prayer, which should, with
recollection, spread throughout one's day. The hesychasts of Mount
Athos, Romania and Russia stress the Jesus Prayer, said vocally until
it becomes automatic in the heart at all times. Both of these are
more explicit methodologies, but the Benedictine aim is the same:
prayer without ceasing, prayer in choir and garden and cell, prayer
at reading and prayer at work. Mindfulness of God at all times is the
contemplative goal of all these systems.
This is just my own opinion, but I am inclined to think that the
Dominican concept of contemplation comes closest to our own, largely
because of their love of study. Study, for the Dominican, is often
very similar to lectio in the Benedictine scheme of things. Why?
Because the Dominican seeks Truth, and Jesus said: "I am the Truth."
A Dominican could be reading virtually anything and still know that
every bit
of real, objective truth garnered from that reading would be yet
another shard, no matter how small, in the infinite mosaic of the
face of Christ. That is a mosaic none of us shall ever complete in
this life, but oh, how much more familiar He shall seem to us when we
meet Him because of it!
Maybe I'm just prejudiced, but I think that a Dominican education,
such as I had, is a wonderful preparation for Benedictine life.
Love and prayers,
Jerome, OSB
Petersham, MA

Shinji Turner-Yamamoto's 2012 Global Tree Project: Hanging Garden — two trees suspended by wire inside Mt. Adams' deconsecrated (and crumbling) Holy Cross Church — is now generally recognized as one of the high points of public art in Cincinnati in recent years.
In addition to proving inspirational for us in terms of what large-scale, site-specific art can be and what local artists can accomplish, it also has attracted ongoing international attention for him.
The latest development is his inclusion in an exhibition, About Trees, opening this fall at the Zentrum Paul Klee museum in Bern, Switzerland. For his site-specific work in the museum's main hall, he will work with a dying linden tree on the museum grounds.
The exhibit — part of a trilogy of related shows that continues into 2017 — is dedicated to the tree as a motif in international contemporary art. Turner-Yamamoto finds himself in some very impressive company. Others with work in the show include Paul Klee, Carlos Amorales, Louise Bourgeois, Paul McCarthy, Ana Mendieta and Shirin Neshat.
Meanwhile, a large-scale photograph of the Hanging Garden installation was commissioned by Caroline Kennedy, U.S. Ambassador to Japan, for the ambassadorial residence in Tokyo as part of the Art in Embassies Program.
Also, he will have a show at the Weston Gallery here next year.
Morning y'all. Let's talk about the news real quick. I think winter is getting to me, because this update got pretty opinionated pretty quickly.
Can you think of anything useful, even vital, on which the county could spend $7.5 million? Maybe chipping in a bit more toward the Union Terminal renovation, or giving a bit to the effort to shape up Music Hall? Maybe addiction treatment or some other human services funding? More sheriff's deputies on the streets? Or, you know, maybe they could put that cash toward a new crime lab and morgue, both of which are critically crowded and out of date. Or etc. I ask because $7.5 million is the recently-announced amount county taxpayers will pay for new Bengals scoreboards as part of some $12 million overall the county will cough up from its sales tax fund for stadium improvements. Is there any estimate on return on investment for the county on this? Will the new high-definition scoreboards create at least $7.5 million in sales taxes for the county somehow? In return for this outpouring of county largess tied to the 15-year-old albatross of a stadium deal, the Bengals made an exception for projects at The Banks to a provision in their lease that stipulates the height of buildings around the stadium. That's nice of them. These are all things I will receive exactly zero benefit from in my lifetime.
• Anyway. Speaking of the county, it has settled with the families of three women whose corpses were abused by a former morgue employee from the 1970s to the 1990s. The county will pay $800,000 to the families to end a lawsuit centered around the behavior of Kenneth Douglass, who is believed to have abused more than 100 bodies in the years he worked for the morgue.
• This is pretty cool, I think. The University of Cincinnati will redevelop the old Sears building on Reading Road and Lincoln Avenue in Corryville into an innovation hub for UC-related startups. The university will spend about $16 million to turn the 130,000-square-foot structure, which has a distinct Art Deco vibe, into a business and tech incubator. The building was the first Sears store in the city when it was built in 1929. I've always really liked this building, and recently, with the fencing that has surrounded it, I've been afraid they would tear it down. UC bought the building in 1981 and it housed the university's campus services until last year. When I was an Americorps member a few years ago, the UC-affiliated nonprofit I worked for had storage space in the building. I know its creepy, dimly-lit hallways well and I'm excited to see it restored.
• It's official. Former Ohio Governor Ted Strickland has entered the 2016 Senate race. Strickland, who will be 75 by that time, could face off against Republican incumbent Sen. Rob Portman, creating a high-profile battle between two of the biggest names in state politics. Portman is popular, with millions in the bank for his next campaign, but Strickland is a formidable opponent and perhaps Democrats' best shot. However, at the moment, Strickland's got some competition for the Democratic nomination in the form of Cincinnati City Councilman P.G. Sittenfeld. Sittenfeld, 30, announced his intentions to run last month and has raised $500,000 for his campaign thus far. He's a dynamic young candidate who has done a great deal in a short time and looks to still be on the rise. Some within the party believe he'll bow out to the higher-profile and more experienced Strickland, but some of Sittenfeld's own funders have indicated they're backing him no matter who else is in the game. Will P.G. keep running, or will the state party convince him to sit this one out?
• Speaking of state politics, Gov. John Kasich gave his State of the State address last night. During the hour-and-a-quarter long speech, Kasich tacked rightward, mostly emphasizing his plan to cut income taxes as a way to encourage economic growth. The speech is an important moment for Kasich as he seeks a larger spotlight. Kasich's been traveling and fundraising in connection with his bid for the Republican Party nomination for the 2016 presidential election. Kasich's recent budget proposals, which he again touted in his speech, suggest he's trying to balance the demands of the Republican party's right wing — cut taxes to the bone, ease regulations on businesses — with a need to stay viable in a general election by appearing to be a compassionate conservative who cares about the plight of the poor, education funding and so forth. It makes sense that Kasich would emphasize the more conservative elements of his plan in his address last night — the yearly oratory is traditionally aimed at the state legislature, which is dominated by rightward-leaning Republicans. Those lawmakers don't seem super-enthused by Kasich's plans, however, balking at tax increases on cigarettes and oil drilling, for instance. One last note on Kasich's big speech — he awarded the Governor's Courage Award to Cincinnatian Lauren Hill, the Mt. Saint Joseph student and basketball player who is fighting an inoperable brain tumor.
• Finally, I generally like the New York Times. They often do fantastic work. But this piece today about downtown Cincinnati's resurgence following the 2001 civil unrest is mystifying to me. First, there are about a million things that made Cincinnati sluggish and grim before and after the unrest, including many systemic issues that haunted and continue to haunt the city specifically and others endemic to a lot of other urban areas. There are about a million other things that have happened since the unrest that have made the city's center, and many other downtowns, take off. Tying the two things together while saying that memories of the unrest are "fading" (probably not true) seems to miss a number of things. The article doesn't mention the city's pervasive poverty problem, the fact we're at the bottom of the list in America for infant mortality, the fact that its police force (30 percent black) still doesn't match the demographics of the city (which is 45 percent black). It barely glances at the issue of gentrification, a problem many say is accelerating in the urban core and a subject that has been hugely divisive over the past decade. Anyway. That's my media criticism for the day.

While Jess Lamb's American Idol journey may be over, the show is still very much a part of her everyday life. Fans of the show know that the performers often leverage their appearances into work on other projects, such as backup singing or working with national acts in collaborations. It is a process that takes a great deal of time and effort but there is another aspect of being an Idol contestant (current and former) that many fans may not consider — namely, keeping up with the social media explosion that coincides with debuting on the show. It's a deluge of activity that, initially, can't be adequately prepared for and it's one that Lamb experienced firsthand.
"At first, after my audition aired, my sites couldn't keep up. My stuff was literally shut down," Lamb explains.
As a local artist, Lamb was used to receiving a friend request on sites like Facebook, Twitter, Tumblr or Instagram fairly often. She relied (and still does rely) on social media for the majority of her publicity regarding upcoming shows and releases. But after her premiere, the number and frequency ballooned in a very short period of time. Furthermore, friend requests from friends of friends or local fans morphed into a nationwide fan base that searched Lamb out on her social media outlets.
"It's crazy that I can make a post about a song and get 90 likes and in two days see hundreds of streams," Lamb says. "It's actually reaching people who are friends of mine because they want to hear the music, not because they're interested in the scene. They're literally curious about what I'm doing — they want to hear more."
But this influx of attention has heightened Lamb's time on said social media, simply so she can keep up with all of the activity across her accounts, while still trying to maintain a public presence and keeping her fans up to date with her myriad projects. In fact, Lamb has had to cut back on the time she spends at her 9-5 job so she can answer fan requests and emails in between interviews, studio work and live performances.
It's been a dramatic transition for Lamb who, before Idol, rarely used her social media for any personal or professional purpose. In fact, it was her fiancé who initially showed her the value of using social media to self-promote. Social media activity actually lines up with Lamb's well established indie sensibilities. She takes pride in having a control over her public output, whether that be an Instagram photo or uploading a new song onto iTunes.
"I still own all the songs, I'm not going to get slapped on the wrist for releasing songs because I'm not releasing for a label —it's still mine, it's on me. If I fail, I'm the one filing bankruptcy. If I succeed, I get to hire more people," Lamb says.
She also leverages her public output to help other artists that she works with as well. For example, many of her fans have seen clips of Lamb's work with local Electronica act Black Signal or marveled at her unique jewelry and clothing, much of which comes from local boutique Lulu White. Lamb has been repeatedly asked about her collaborations and takes great pains to make sure that her partners get the recognition they deserve. In doing so, she is able to shine a light on not just projects that she is personally a part of, but also projects that she is a personal fan of, showing her fans another aspect of her personality and artistic output.
In many ways, keeping up with her social media has become another job for Lamb, requiring large amounts of time and thought to be put into its upkeep. But it's a job she enjoys doing and one that she has no intention of passing off to anyone else.
"I would prefer to spend my time doing the social media stuff, I really do enjoy it. It helps me to come out of my shell when I'm sitting behind the computer," Lamb says.
For her fans this is great news, because they can be assured that anything they see coming from Lamb online is actually coming from her and not a hired gun. It's a genuine correspondence, which in today's pop music world is a rarity.
Last year, Cincinnati Hip Hop artist MC Till (aka Adam Hayden) did the unexpected and released The Neighborhood, an amazing album that brilliantly fused Jazz with Hip Hop rhymes. This year, Hayden is working on another delightful musical curveball — a Hip Hop-centric album (available on vinyl) and book project for children titled The Corner.
The seeds of the project were planted several years ago when his friend, graphic designer/videographer/rapper Vernard Fields, who has worked over a decade with special needs children in the Cincinnati Public Schools system, mentioned to Hayden that he wanted to make a Hip Hop album for kids. In 2012, while Hayden was working as an assistant CPS teacher, he discovered that by rapping some children's poetry, he quickly and easily captured the attention of the first grade class in which he was in charge. Recalling Fields orginal suggestion, Hayden got back in touch with him and the pair worked out some material and presented it to an even younger audience (pre-schoolers), where they were again a big hit. Hayden and Fields then teamed up with illustrator Charlie Padgett to create the visuals for The Corner.
The high-quality book and album will be made available as hard copies and digitally (an app and website are also in the works) and the trio hopes that schools will be interested in using their project in the classroom. The Kickstarter perks offered for the campaign for The Corner include having bundles sent to specific teachers and schools (there's even an accompanying study guide for teachers).
The ambitious project won't be cheap to produce; the three artists are currently aiming for more than $48,000 in their Kickstarter campaign. If you'd like to contribute and/or check out the project, click here or on the video below.
Hey all, here's the news this morning.
Have you ever thought there should be more bars downtown? I hadn't really thought about it before, but then I'm not a huge bar person. 3CDC, on the other hand, has and would like the city to take steps to increase the number of liquor licenses in two specific areas downtown. One, which would be called the Downtown West Community Entertainment District, would be near the convention center and Fountain Square, and another, called Downtown East, would encompass the rest of downtown. Designating an area a community entertainment district makes it eligible for more liquor licenses from the state.
Currently, Cincinnati is maxed out, but the proposed scheme would add up to 21 new licenses in the two districts. Ten other neighborhoods in the city have this designation, including Over-the-Rhine, Price Hill and CUF. 3CDC would control all liquor licenses granted to the western district under the plan, which has the support of a majority of council and Mayor John Cranley. Supporters of the plan say it will attract more residents to the districts as well as increase tax revenue. Council looks to vote on the measure soon.
• A local man has filed a lawsuit against LA Fitness after he claims he was prohibited from praying in the locker room of the chain's Oakley location. Mohamed Fall, a Muslim, worked out at the gym on a regular basis for more than a year. After his workouts, he would stand with his eyes closed in an empty corner of the locker room and pray without speaking. Recently, three LA Fitness employees approached him while he was praying and told him he had to stop and that he should not pray in the locker room again. Fall says he was afraid he would be kicked out if he did not comply.
• Hamilton County Commissioners have officially signaled they will not be pursuing a plan to move the Hamilton County morgue and crime lab to a currently vacant hospital in Mount Airy that Mercy Health offered to donate to the county. While the building would be cost-free, the build out necessary to move the morgue, crime lab and other offices there is cost-prohibitive, commissioners have said. They've estimated it could cost as much as $100 million to retrofit the building. The decision comes as the county's morgue and crime lab continue to sound alarms about their current cramped and outdated workspace.
• Legislation that would move the embattled Brent Spence Bridge replacement project another step toward reality is expected to pass in the Kentucky State House today. The bill would allow the state to use a public-private partnership to fund the project, specifically through tolling on the bridge. Officials in both states have struggled to find the necessary $2.6 billion to fund the bridge replacement project. Opponents of the current plan proposed by Ohio Gov. John Kasich and Kentucky Gov. Steve Beshear say the project doesn't need to cost that much, and that tolling will represent a huge burden on businesses and workers in both states. Northern Kentucky politicians and activists have been especially adamant about preventing tolling on the bridge.
• A petition drive to get legal weed on the November ballot in Ohio suffered a blow yesterday when Attorney General Mike DeWine rejected summary language for the petition. DeWine had several quibbles with the details, and lack thereof, in a summary of the proposed ballot language filed with his office by ResponsibleOhio. That group wants to put a state constitutional amendment on the ballot that would create 10 marijuana grow sites in the state controlled by the group's investors. The proposal would make marijuana legal to sell with a license, and anyone over the age of 21 could purchase it. Ohioans would also be allowed to grow a small amount of the drug at home, a change in position from the group's original proposal. The group has until July to collect 300,000 signatures and file the petition with the secretary of state. DeWine and other statewide Republican officials have been vocal opponents of the idea, saying that it will increase drug use and that it constitutes a state-run monopoly. Ohio voters passed a similar constitutional amendment allowing four casinos in the state in 2009.
• On a somewhat related note, recreational weed became legal in Alaska today. I used to think I would never move to Alaska because IT GETS BELOW ZERO there, but, well... It's also legal in Colorado and Washington state and will become legal in Oregon in July and in Washington D.C. later this week.
• Veterans Affairs head and former P&G president Bob McDonald is drawing some criticism after he made a claim that he once served in special forces. McDonald is a veteran who attained the rank of captain in the U.S. Army and attended Ranger training school. But he did not actually serve with the elite force. He told a homeless veteran in L.A. during a point-in-time count of that city's homeless population last month that he did serve in the special forces, however, a claim that has caused controversy. McDonald has apologized for the statement, saying it was a mistake.
That does it for your news wrap-up today. Tweet at your boy (@nswartsell) or send me a good old fashioned email at email@example.com. Things I'm keen to get your thoughts on this week: news tips (of course), interesting parts of the city for an urban photography buff (me) and recommendations on cool sneakers (I'm due for a new pair).
Neil Patrick Harris hosted the 87th Oscars Sunday night. Let's talk about it!
Having hosted multiple Emmy and Tony award shows in the past, quadruple-threat NPH (he sings, dances, acts and does magic) was well suited — cue Barney Stinson high-five — to the task. He did in fact sing, dance, act and do magic all while poking fun at the nominees, recreating significant movie moments and ad-libbing on the fly. Great job, NPH!
As far as the night's trends, there were a few:
Using the acceptance speech as a bigger platform
While some folks stick to the traditional "Thank God, the Academy and my manager" speech, others used the time in the spotlight to address other issues. This is nothing new — Marlon Brando famously boycotted the 1973 Academy Awards for Hollywood's treatment of Native Americans, arranging for Sacheen Littlefeather to attend in his behalf and decline the Best Actor award (for The Godfather).
This year's acceptance speech shout-outs ranged from appreciating parents (J.K. Simmons) and supporting ecological sanitation and women's rights (Patricia Arquette) to empowering the LGBTQ community (Graham Moore) and discussing immigration (Alejandro González Iñarritu).
Play someone with a disease, win awards
Again, this trend is far from new. The Academy — and audiences — love to see an actor transform, and portraying someone with a mental or physical condition can certainly do the trick. It's not a surefire way to win an Oscar — just ask poor Leonardo DiCaprio (What's Eating Gilbert Grape, The Aviator) — but the Oscars have looked favorably on roles like this in the past. And present: Eddie Redmayne won Best Actor for his portrayal of Stephen Hawking in The Theory of Everything; Julianne Moore was awarded Best Actress for her role as a woman with early-onset Alzheimer's in Still Alice.
Ladies in White
Whiteness wasn't just the hilarious subject of NPH's first joke in the monologue (see below), it was also a prominent dress color for many attendees, nominees and performers. Patricia Arquette, Reese Witherspoon, Carmen Ejogo, Marion Cotillard, Lupita Nyong'o, Julianne Moore, Lady Gaga, Kerry Washington, Nicole Kidman and others all rocked white, channeling the snow that many of those not in L.A. were knee-deep in.
Now for a play-by-play recap of the event.
Neil Patrick Harris opened the show with a theatrical song, but not before making a joke about celebrating the "best and the whitest" – err, brightest film stars.
I like how the Oscars always start with the supporting
actor award to get people excited, only to spend the following hour busting

While I was rooting for Boyhood (a movie I will probably never stop talking about and encouraging people to see), I'd be remiss not to say Birdman deserved all the accolades it received. Overall, many of the year's best films got some deserved recognition on a night that was entertaining for movie makers and lovers alike. Also, did this year's show break the record for tighty whitie references?
The FotoFocus Lecture and Visiting Artist Series at Cincinnati Art Museum will feature photographer Roe Ethridge on March 25 at 7 p.m.
According to FotoFocus, Ethridge — who works in both commercial and fine art photography — draws upon the descriptive power of photography and the ease with which it can be accessed, duplicated and recombined. He is considered a post-Modernist.
His work has been shown in such venues as MOMA/PS1, London's Barbican Center, Carnegie Museum of Art Boston's Institute of Contemporary Art, the 2008 Whitney Biennial (2008); and the Museum of Modern Art. In 2011 he was a finalist for the Deutsche Börse Photography Prize.
presentation at the museum is free and reservations are not required, though
parking for non-museum members is $4. More info here.
I don't pay much attention to Groundhog Day for signs of spring, and Reds Opening Day is way too late to celebrate the promise of warmer weather. My key indicator for when spring is just around the corner is when Cincinnati-area theaters start announcing their upcoming seasons. (In fact, Cincinnati Landmark Productions was the first out of the gate a few weeks back; more about that in a moment.) But this evening's big news is rundown of shows to be presented on the Cincinnati Playhouse in the Park's two stages, the Robert S. Marx Theater and the Shelterhouse.
As Blake Robison enters his fourth season as the Playhouse's artistic director, he says he does not approach a season in a thematic way. "Our priorities continue to be new works, culturally diverse works and family-friendly works." He's include several of each in the Playhouse's 2015-2016 season, the Tony Award-winning regional theater's 56th.
In particular, Robison has slated two world-premiere comedies, Native Gardens, a hilarious tale of clashing neighbors by Karen Zacarías, whose Book Club Play was a big hit for the Mount Adams theater two seasons ago, and The Revolutionists, an irreverent, girl-powered fantasia set during the French Revolution and written by one of America's best emerging playwrights, Lauren Gunderson. (Know Theatre staged Toil and Trouble in 2013, and her 2014 script I and You won the American Theatre Critics Association's 2014 Steinberg Prize.) In fact, girl-power has clearly arrived at the Playhouse: Half of the season's productions are works by women.
In the family-friendly category, Robison has selected two shows based on classic novels: the musical version of Frances Hodgson Burnett's The Secret Garden and a stage adaptation of Harper Lee's To Kill a Mockingbird, the 1960 Pulitzer Prize winning novel that's been much in the news recently with the announcement that a prior version of the story will be published later this year. The creators of the memorable show Fly — about the legendary Tuskegee Airmen — will return with Satchel Paige and the Kansas City Swing, their new Jazz-infused drama focused on African-American sports legend. Robison will also stage a captivating drama, Mad River Rising, set on an Ohio farm at the time of the horrendous floods of 1936.
Here's a chronological rundown of what's in store, with dates a few more details.
THE SECRET GARDEN, with book and lyrics by Marsha Norman and music by Lucy Simon. The show features Norman's Tony Award-winning script, adapted from Frances Hodgson Burnett's classic novel. It's the story of Mary Lennox, orphaned at age 10, and sent from India to live with her aloof uncle in his foreboding English manor. There she discovers the locked-away secrets of an abandoned garden. It's going to be staged by Marcia Millgrom Dodge, a Tony Award winner who staged Cabaret for the Playhouse in 2013. Robison says that this is the kind of musically complex show that is "what the Playhouse does." Sept. 5-Oct. 3, 2015 on the Robert S. Marx Mainstage.
SEX WITH STRANGERS by Laura Eason. Playwright Eason has been one of the writers behind Netflix's engaging series, House of Cards, staring Kevin Spacey. Robison tells me he's wanted to stage this provocative, sexy and funny show since its 2011 debut at Chicago's Steppenwolf Theatre because of its "intergenerational appeal," but he had to wait until it had its Broadway debut last year. Associate Artist KJ Sanchez will stage this show that explores what happens when private lives become public domain as a famous blogger finds himself snowbound with a talented but unknown novelist. They're attracted to each other, but envious, too. Sept. 26-Oct. 25, 2015 in the Thompson Shelterhouse.
MAD RIVER RISING by Dana Yeaton. The playwright is an acquaintance of Robison's, and this 1998 work debuted in Vermont when Robison worked at a theater there. An 85-year-old man escapes from a nursing home and hides out in his family's barn. As a boy, he saw his family's home wash away and now "progress" is threatening to destroy the farm again. The story slips back and forth between past and present, and the production, which Robison will stage features music by a singer/songwriter also from Vermont. Robison calls the drama "poetic, poignant and utterly captivating." Oct. 17-Nov. 14, 2015 on the Robert S. Marx Mainstage.
LOW DOWN DIRTY BLUES by Randal Myler and Dan Wheetman. For the holiday season on the Thompson Shelterhouse stage, the Playhouse will present a revue with musicians gathered for an after-hours jam session where they swap stories and play nearly two dozen tunes they love by Muddy Waters, Ma Rainey, Sophie Tucker, Howlin' Wolf, Pearl Bailey and more. Myler was the creative force behind the Playhouse's popular production of Love, Janis (about Janis Joplin) in 2005 as well as Hank Williams: Lost Highway in 2012, and he'll be in town to stage this one, too. Nov. 7-Dec. 20, 2015.
For the 25th consecutive season, the Playhouse will present A CHRISTMAS CAROL Nov. 25-Dec. 30, 2015 on the Robert S. Marx Mainstage. I've seen it for most all of those years, and I never grow tired of Howard Dallin's excellent adaptation. It uses 29 actors, many of them local professionals, and features veteran Bruce Cromer as the miserly Scrooge (it's his 11th year in the role). Michael Evan Haney, who has staged the production every year since 1992 will return, too. The show, by the way is not part of any subscription package, but subscribers are eligible for discounts and early buying opportunities.
NATIVE GARDENS by Karen Zacarías. 2016 kicks off with a world premiere by the playwright whose Book Club Play charmed Playhouse audiences in 2013. Her new script is about how friendly neighbors become feuding enemies when their gardens and fences don't quite align. One couple is Hispanic while the other is Anglo, and their disagreements escalate into an all-out war of taste, class, privilege and entitlement with hilarious results. Robison will stage this one, as he did her previous Playhouse show. Jan. 23-Feb. 21, 2016 on the Roberts S. Marx Mainstage.
THE REVOLUTIONISTS by Lauren Gunderson. As noted, Gunderson is a rising star in the theater world — and Robison has scheduled her new script to overlap for a few weeks with Zacarías's show, resulting in simultaneous world premieres by women playwrights. In Gunderson's new script, at the height of the French Revolution, four historic characters — playwright Olympe De Gouges, assassin Charlotte Corday, activist Angelle Ogé and former queen Marie Antoinette — conspire to escape the extremist forces swirling around them. Eleanor Holdridge from Catholic University in Washington, D.C., who has been working closely with Gunderson to develop the script, will stage this fantasy about how we change the world. Feb. 6-March 6, 2016, in the Thompson Shelterhouse.
The Revolutionists
TO KILL A MOCKINGBIRD by Harper Lee (adapted by Christopher Sergel). Set in Depression-era Alabama, it's about precocious tomboy Scout and her brother Jem during a life-changing summer when their father, Atticus, a small-town lawyer, defends a black man accused of a crime he didn't commit. The Playhouse was one of the first theaters to stage Sergel's adaptation in 1993; it's a slightly different version (with more roles and a different narrator) than the one, also by Sergel, presented by Cincinnati Shakespeare Company in 2012. The Playhouse's newest artistic associate, Eric Ting, is slated to direct this one. March 5-April 3, 2016, on the Robert S. Marx Mainstage.
MOTHERS AND SONS by Terrence McNally. Another artistic associate, Timothy Douglas, will stage this show, which was a 2014 Tony nominee the year's best play on Broadway. McNally, who has written more than 30 plays and musicals (including the Tony Award-winning Love! Valour! Compassion!) has created a drama about change, reconciliation and what it means to be a family. A gay couple have a happy life with their 6-year-old child until the mother of a former lover makes a surprise visit to their Manhattan home, two decades years after her son's untimely death. No play by McNally has been presented at the Playhouse since 1990, so this exploration of the complexities of life that gay men face is a welcome addition to the Playhouse's repertoire. March 19-April 17, 2016, in the Thompson Shelterhouse.
SATCHEL PAIGE AND THE KANSAS CITY SWING by Trey Ellis and Ricardo Khan. This new play focuses on the 1947 Negro Leagues when pitcher Satchel Paige was the king of baseball, despite his advancing age. But Jackie Robinson's meteoric rise to fame overshadowed Paige who found himself hemmed in by many barriers. Ellis and Khan's story of the Tuskegee Airmen, Fly!, used a tap dancer as part of the storytelling, and this one will use a Jazz musician who interacts with the characters in a similar vein. April 23-May 21, 2016, on the Robert S. Marx Mainstage.
BAD DATES by Theresa Rebeck. In 2005 and 2006 this play by Cincinnati born-and-bred playwright Rebeck was a big hit locally and nationally; the comedy was, in fact, one of the most produced plays in America for two years. A middle-aged woman and single mom who manages a restaurant and loves shoes, decides to start dating again. She talks and we listen while she gets ready for one dreadful date after another. Then a turn of events makes life all the more interesting. Originally presented on the Marx stage, this revival will happen in the Thompson Shelterhouse; Michael Haney, who staged it a decade ago, will return to make Cincinnatians laugh again. April 30-June 12, 2016.

Cincinnati Landmark Productions has a lot to offer, too
Cincinnati Landmark Productions is growing, complementing its productions at the Covedale Center for the Performing Arts with a new venue, the Warsaw Federal Incline Theater. A month or so ago artistic director Tim Perrino laid out more than a dozen productions that will be happening during 2015-2016.
"We've created distinct seasons of exciting show titles that our audiences will absolutely love," he said at the time. "The Covedale season will represent the legacy of our company, while the Incline will be an expansion of our programming. Together, they deepen the impact of Cincinnati Landmark Productions in the communities we call home." Audiences have flocked to the Covedale (4990 Glenway Avenue) in recent years, leading to an expansion of runs from three to four weeks as annual attendance grew from less than 14,000 in 2003 to more than 37,000 in 2014. Perrino hopes for similar success at the Incline Theater (801 Matson Place, East Price Hill).
This summer the Incline will offer three "summer classics" — somewhat in the vein of shows that Cincinnati Landmark once presented on the Showboat Majestic. They are Mel Brooks' hilarious showbiz spoof, The Producers (June 3-21); 1776 (July 8-26), the story of America's patriotic heritage by Sherman Edwards and Peter Stone; and Dolly Parton's 9 to 5 (August 12-30), the story of women in an office who take administration into their own hands.
The Covedale will offer a "Marquee Series," a half-dozen productions between September and May. On the schedule are classically entertaining musicals and comedies — A Chorus Line (Sept. 3-27), the story of a dance audition process for a Broadway show; Fox on the Fairway, a comedy by Ken Ludwig (author of Lend Me a Tenor); Mary Poppins (Nov. 27-Dec. 20), a perfect storybook musical for the holidays; Neil Simon's Chapter Two (Jan. 21-Feb. 14, 2016), a laugh-infused tale about getting back into the dating game; She Loves Me (March 10-April 3, 2016), f

Jammu and Kashmir, the Cold War and the West
D N Panigrahi
This book is available for download with iBooks on your Mac or iOS device, and with iTunes on your computer. Books can be read with iBooks on your Mac or iOS device.
This book re-examines the multifaceted reality of the Kashmir problem. The state of Jammu and Kashmir had acceded to India soon after India's partition. Pakistan laid claim to it waged wars with India to wrest it. The various decisions taken by the USA and Britain in conjunction with India and Pakistan as to how Kashmir should be governed are discussed.
Studying the spread of communism, the book makes extensive use of primary resources available in India and the UK. The principal object of the author is to locate conflict in Kashmir within the international politics of the time, during the Cold War, and especially in the context of India's relationship with the UK.
The narratives of the discourse throw light on the varied and salient features of the problem. These have been enriched by an in-depth analysis based on the writings, notes and correspondence of distinguished British and Indian politicians and statesmen. The author has also consulted public documents on US foreign relations as well as other studies. This study explores myths about the Kashmir problem, reinforcing known and unknown truths.

Full detailed profile on Sabrina Santiago Played by Teresa Castillo on General Hospital Daytime Soap Opera.
Real Name: Teresa Castillo
Friends and family gather at the church for Patrick and Sabrina's wedding. Patrick and Elizabeth discuss Bobbie reconnecting with his dad at the Nurses' Ball after all these years. Elizabeth asks Brad who invited him after he signs the guest list. He admits the maid of honor did. Epiphany's glad that Patrick's nerves are fine and is thankful he's not letting Carlos' nonsense get to him. Patrick couldn't have done this without her and thanks Epiphany for seeing him through. She accepts his complement and tells him it's time to get it done. In the bride's dressing room, Emma's concerned the bad luck has begun when she hears Felix discussing Ellie not receiving her invitation. Lucy comes in and apologizes when Felix hands her the script. She can't marry Sabrina and Patrick, something came up. She's ready to rush off in tears when Felix stops her. Lucy's not sure she believes in marriage anymore since hers is over. Felix knows her marriage is made of sterner stuff and doesn't think their schedules will end her marriage. Sabrina opens a knock at the door and sees Patrick. They're left alone and Patrick confesses leaving the lab earlier and closing the door on his old life. He loves her and can't wait to start a new life with Sabrina. After he leaves, Lucy returns after Felix's pep talk and is ready to get the wedding started. Before rushing out she leaves a blue hankie with Sabrina and Emma. Outside, Patrick confirms he's ready to Elizabeth. Everyone takes their place and the music starts. Patrick kisses Emma after she walks down the aisle. Sabrina walks down the aisle. All are smiles as Lucy begins the ceremony and Robin peers in through the doors.
At Sabrina's, Emma worries there won't be a wedding…Felix is saying bad words while fixing Sabrina's dress. Sabrina explains it's part of Felix's process. Emma hopes Sabrina will marry her daddy today. Sabrina's waited a long time for this day and knows it will happen. Felix comes out announcing her dress is her something old and something new. Emma hands her a pink ribbon for something borrowed and Felix advises against Sabrina wearing a turquoise necklace from Carlos as something blue. Emma worries it's bad luck when Sabrina's ready to take her chances to go without a something blue. Felix calls Ellie.
Back at Sabrina's, Felix asks what's wrong and she tells him she's certain she left an invitation for Ellie at the lab. She considers Carlos told the truth about seeing Robin who might have taken the invitation but Felix thinks there's no way that's possible.
Juan Santiago's arrival surprises Sabrina, Felix and Elizabeth at the apartment. Sabrina introduces him to Emma and Felix, but he knows Elizabeth and gives her a heartfelt hug. Sabrina wonders why he's there and he holds up her dress. She opens the cover and cries. It's her mother's wedding dress. She wants Juan to stay but he's still on tour and leaves. He asks Emma to take care of his cousin for him. Elizabeth walks him out, and thanks him. He misses hanging out with her and Emily and shares he's married. He tells Elizabeth to have fun at the wedding, "You never know what could happen." She returns inside and finds Sabrina overjoyed at the turn of events.
At the Metro Court, Felix wonders how Sabrina will make it up to him for being late. She promises him a massage at Deception Spa when it opens. He's worried this wedding will never happen and she worries it's not for a lack of Carlos trying to ruin it. He's told her Robin is alive. Felix considers it could be Robin's ghost haunting the lab where she died but Sabrina's certain Carlos is just trying to stop the wedding. Before they check out the restaurant, Sabrina asks Felix to be her person of honor. She can't get married without her best friend. Sabrina looks crushed when he says no before saying, "I'm joking."
Back at the Metro Court, Patrick and Sabrina are happy with the venue. He's surprised she's being superstitious and is not going home with him. She's not taking any chances, even after all his kisses.
At General Hospital, Brad realizes he was supposed to be doing something important when he returns with Felix from wedding dress hunting. He asks Felix to dinner and is shocked when Felix agrees. Patrick sees the exchange and warns Felix after, not to trust Brad. Felix respects Patrick's feelings but thinks Brad probably is having a hard time accepting a child that doesn't look like him. Felix is giving Brad a chance. Patrick doesn't have time to hold a grudge now that he has Sabrina. Felix can't wait for them to get married but wants to know if Patrick loves her with his whole heart. Patrick confesses Robin always came first but now that she's gone, Sabrina comes first. Outside the lab, Sabrina is 'so over' anything Carlos has to say about Patrick. He asks, "What if I tell you his wife is still alive?" Sabrina shakes her head in disbelief and asks where he saw her. He points into the lab. Sabrina thinks he's mistaken but Carlos knows she was there claiming to be Epiphany. He remembers seeing her photo at Patrick's. Brad interrupts and refuses to tell them anything about who was working in the lab. He peeks in the window and wonders aloud, "Where the hell did she go?" Sabrina asks, "Who?" Brad decides they must be in the middle of something and tries to leave but Carlos stops to ask him if he's looking for Robin. Brad realizes Nikolas was up to something but tells them he was looking for Ellie. Alone, Carlos asks Sabrina if Ellie looks like the woman in Patrick's family portrait. Sabrina thinks it's crazy but he warns her all her wedding preparations will be for naught. Later, Felix goes to the lab and invites Brad to the wedding. He accepts. Meanwhile, Carlos sees Patrick embracing Sabrina as he leaves.
At General Hospital, Patrick gives Luke and Tracy the news that there's no polonium in Luke's system. Sabrina takes Connie and Tracy hugs Patrick. He won't accept credit. They should thank their mysterious doctor. Luke wants to see Anna. Patrick says Anna hasn't been heard of since she left the clinic with Robert. Duke thinks they went to track Faison after he escaped with Obrecht. Luke confesses Obrecht was on Cassadine Island with Jerry. Patrick thinks Nikolas might know something but he hasn't seen Duke since he went to Wyndemere. Luke leaves for Wyndemere. In the lab, Carlos realizes Robin is not Sabrina. He thinks he knows her from somewhere. Robin claims that she's Epiphany and asks if he's Sabrina's ex. He realizes she sounds as thrilled as he does about the impending wedding. Robin hopes it works out between him and Sabrina. Carlos leaves and sees a photo of Epiphany in the hall. Carlos remembers seeing a picture of Robin at Patrick's. Alone, Robin finishes her work and leaves for Wyndemere. Meanwhile, Carlos bumps into Sabrina and tells her that Patrick's wife is alive.
Carlos visits Sabrina at Patrick's and sees a room full of wedding dresses. She thinks he has better things to do for 'Mr. Wells' after seeing the newspaper. Carlos denies knowing anything about Derek being Julian Jerome. Any business he has with Julian Jerome will be legit. She doesn't know why she should care. Carlos confesses he intends to spend the rest of his life with her. Sabrina wants him to be happy but she loves Patrick. She throws him out after he tosses a few dresses around.
At GH, Robin hears Patrick approaching the lab. Dr. Dosky stops Patrick to congratulate him on his wedding – he thinks Robin would approve. Dosky saw Brad leave but Patrick knows his way around the lab. Robin hides under a desk before Patrick comes in. She worries when he drops some papers on the floor but he's distracted when Sabrina comes in. He's happy to see her but upset when she talks about Carlos' visit to his house. Robin overhears that Carlos works for Julian Jerome. Patrick doesn't want Carlos near his family. They decide they'll call Anna about it before kissing and leaving the lab. Alone, Robin reads the wedding invitation that Sabrina left behind. Elsewhere, Carlos is looking for Sabrina. When he finds the lab, he thinks he's confronting Sabrina. He turns Robin around and sees her face.

5:43 hate your enemy. This is not in the Old Testament, but was a false conclusion in scribal teaching drawn from the narrow understanding of "neighbor" as simply one's fellow Jew. Jesus shows that the true intent of Lev. 19:18 extends even to one's enemies (Luke 10:29–37).
