Mimmo Paladino per Ravello Festival 2015
di Nicolangelo Gelormini
On the next June, 20th Ravello Festival is going to start with an evening of great international ballet, based on Richard Wagner's music, the "protective deity" of the Festival who, as in a big circular composition, will be celebrated also in the closing night consecrated to "Parsifal", in September 5th. Between the two Wagnerian's extremes about fifteen events will find space switching, as a consolidated tradition, among symphonic and chamber objects, jazz and pop repertoire, without missing attention to theatre, visual arts and "debates about words". Promoted in 2003 by Ravello Foundation on the base of the project started in 1953, the Festival Format remains the same considering that, especially in the last five years, it revealed itself successful more than ever, registering a trend in constant rising for audience and media feedback.
The leitmotiv of these two months and a half of the program, outlined by the art director Stefano Valanzuolo, is "InCanto". In this term, that Mimmo Paladino has made as a real logo with his dedicated sketch, two intents are willingly mixed: the first and principal gives attention to human voice as an expressive, melodic, poetic, rhythmic and if necessary even politic instrument.
This interpretation will imply the presence of a dense network of prestigious singers in Ravello: the charismatic Laurie Anderson, Lou Reed's muse, meets on stage (her first time in Italy) the great composer Philip Glass; the prince of Italian songwriters, Francesco De Gregori, proposes himself in acoustic; Bobby McFerrin, virtuous vocal talent without etiquettes, choses Villa Rufolo for one of his three Italian concerts of the season; Dee Dee Bridgewater goes back to New Orleans jazz's roots; Ute Lemper proposes in debut in Ravello her new project written with Paulo Coelho under the direction of Schöndorff; in addition: three big Spanish artists give force to a cycle – edited by Gianni Minà – that explores the social aspect of song: they are the glorious Catalan artist Joan Manuel Serrat, supported in this first longed Italian concert by his friend Gino Paoli; Augusto Enriquez Cuban musician involved in a meaningful tribute to the songwriter icon of his land Silvio Rodriguez; and, in the end, Maria Gadù, who represents the new Brazilian generation.
But the voice can give substance to other suggestions, all theatrical especially if we talk of the charismatic voice of Giorgio Albertazzi, a boy of ninety years old ready to debut in Ravello with Mariangela D'Abbraccio, in the name of Borges and Piazzolla.
From "In Canto"(in song) to "incanto"(enchantment), the second aspect of the leitmotiv that turns around mystery and magic, concepts subtended to the irresistible charm of the place that receives the Festival since sixty-three years. In the fairy, supernatural element many proposals will find a touch of seduction. Inspired to a enchant is, for example, the story of "Tristan and Isolde" that, 150 years after the first play, will be declined in dance, with the presence of two extraordinary étoiles of Paris Opéra and Giorgio Mancini's choreographies; then in theatrical key, with the new "Cunto di Tristano" (Tristan's tale) committed to the director, actor and storyteller Vincenzo Pirrotta; in the end at the piano with Orazio Sciortino. The evening September,5th will be a sort of Wagnerian apotheosis, with the public invited by Valery Gergiev, directing the famous Marinskij's Orchestra and the St. Cecilia's Choir, in the "magic garden of Klingsor", for a suggestive focus on "Parsifal" whose genesis is not accidentally linked to Ravello's gardens. It is not only the famous one from San Pietroburgo, the orchestra waited at the Festival: there is also, in fact, on the locandina, the extraordinary Gustav Mahler Jugend Orchestra (Gustav Mahler Youth Orchestra)founded by Abbado and assigned for the occasion, to the care of the glorious Herbert Blomstedt. And in addition keeping on speaking about younger orchestras, we recommend, the European Union Youth Orchestra with Gianandrea Noseda (Symphony No. 5 by Mahler), the Junge Wien Philarmonie (Vienna Youth Philharmonic Orchestra) ("Grande" by Schubert), the Orchestra dell'Accademia della Scala (La Scala Academy Orchestra ) with one of the most quoted curator of the time, the Finnish Susanna Mälkki.

A novel initiator (blasting cap) for explosives is provided. The initiator, which may be electric or non-electric, comprises a tubular metal shell having within a base charge, a delay train, a priming charge and an ignition means. Interposed between the delay train and the priming charge is an annular collar or ring of resilient material in contact with the inner wall of the metal shell. The construction results in a markedly improved resistance against shock initiation.
1. An improved time-delay blasting initiator of the type comprising a tubular metal shell, a base charge of explosive in the shell, a priming charge adjacent the base charge, a delay train above said priming charge and an ignition means above said delay train, the improvement comprising an annular collar of resilient material interposed between the said delay train and the said priming charge, the said collar being in tight-fitting contact with an inner wall of the said tubular metal shell.
2. An improved blasting initiator as claimed in claim 1 wherein the said annular collar comprises polyethylene of a density of from 0.91 to 0.93.
3. An improved blasting initiator as claimed in claim 1 wherein the said annular collar is rectangular in cross-section.
4. An improved blasting initiator as claimed in claim 1 wherein the said annular collar is circular in cross-section.
5. An improved blasting initiator as claimed in claim 1 wherein the said annular collar is indented into a peripheral edge of the said priming charge.
This invention relates to blasting initiators, and more particularly, to both electric and non-electric initiators of the delay type which demonstrate improved resistance to shock initiation.
Delay blasting initiators or detonators are well known in the art and normally consist of a metal or plastic shell or tube, closed at one end and containing a base charge of a secondary explosive, such as pentaerythritol tetranitrate (PETN), and a priming charge of a primary explosive such as lead azide located immediately above the base charge. A delay element is placed above the priming charge and an ignition charge is located above the delay element. The delay element introduces a time lag between the activation of the ignition charge and the detonation of the base charge. The ignition charge is activated electrically in an electric detonator and by means of energy provided by a detonating cord or shock tube in a non-electric detonator.
In multiple charge blasting operations, a number of closely spaced explosive-charged boreholes are advantageously detonated in a planned sequence employing mil-second (MS) delay blasting detonators. Use of such split-second techniques results in substantially improved blasting results in terms of improved fragmentation, reduced vibration and backbreak and minimized cut-offs. Briefly described, in split-second blasting, a single charged borehole or a row of charged holes is detonated at one point in time, a second adjacent charged hole or row of charged holes is detonated at a later mil-second interval, a third charged row at a further short delayed interval, etc. The delay between each detonation is achieved by providing blasting detonators having a built-in delay feature, the delays ranging from about 10 MS to about 9000 MS.
A problem which has persisted in the use of split-second delay blasting techniques has been the inadvertent, premature detonation of blasting detonators in nearby holes caused by shock transmitted through the terrain from an earlier detonated charge. When this occurs, the carefully planned sequence of delay blasting is upset resulting in unsatisfactory blasting results.
It is an object of the present invention to provide a delay blasting detonator which demonstrates a substantially improved resistance against shock initiation with no loss in output energy. Additional objects of the invention will be evident upon consideration of the ensuing description.
The improved shock resistant delay blasting detonator of the invention comprises essentially a tubular cup-shaped metal shell, a base charge of explosive in the shell, a priming charge adjacent the base charge, a delay train above the priming charge, and an ignition means above the delay train, the improvement comprising an annular collar of resilient material interposed between the said priming charge and delay train, the collar being in tight-fitting contact with an inner wall of the tubular metal shell.
In an electric detonator, the means to initiate the delay element may consist of a fine bridge wire embedded in an ignitable composition and supported by a plug of insulating material. In a non-electric detonator, the initiating means may be an ignitable composition against which the end of a detonating cord or shock tube can be secured.
The detonator of the invention may be more fully illustrated by reference to the accompanying drawing wherein:
FIG. 1 is a cross-sectional longitudinal view of an electric delay detonator according to the prior art;
FIG. 2 is a cross-sectional longitudinal view of a typical electric blasting detonator of the present invention; and
FIG. 3 is an enlargement of the circled area in FIG. 2.
Referring to FIG. 1, 1 is an elongated tubular cup-shaped rigid shell of, for example, aluminum, 2 is a base charge of detonating explosive, for example, pentaerythritol tetranitrate (PETN), 3 is a priming charge of a primary explosive, for example, lead azide, mercury fulminate or lead styphnate, 4 is a malleable metal delay train carrying a delay charge 5 of, for example, a silicon/red lead mixture, 6 is a an ignition charge of, for example, a boron/red lead mixture, 7 is a bridge wire embedded in the ignition charge 6, and 8 and 9 are connecting leg wires held within the end of shell 1 by means of a plug 10. Peripheral crimps are shown at 11 and 12.
In the assembly of the detonator depicted in FIG. 1, the base charge 2 is introduced into shell 1 and pressed with a pointed end or rounded end rod or pin which produces a depression or recess on the surface of charge 2. Priming charge 3 is then placed into shell 1, filling the recess in base charge 2. The charge 3 may optionally be pressed. During this operation, small amounts of grain matter comprising priming charge 3 are inadvertently distributed above charge 3 and adhere against the inner wall of shell 1. Delay carrier or train 4 is then pressed into shell 1, frequently trapping grain particles of priming charge 3 between train 4 and the inner wall of shell 1. Ignition charge 6 is introduced into shell 1 as a loose powder after which an assembly comprising bridge wire 7, leg wires 8 and 9 and plug 10 are pressed into shell 1 until the base of plug 10 is flush with the surface of charge 6 and bridge wire 7 is embedded in charge 6. Peripheral crimps 11 and 12 secure plug 10 within shell 1.
Detonators of the type shown in FIG. 1 can be initiated sympathetically when exposed to pressures of 8000-9000 psi in underwater shock tests. It has been postulated that this high level of shock sensitivity is due, in large part, to the compressed and confined particles of the primary explosive priming charge which are trapped between the shell wall and the delay carrier 4. From the foregoing description, it is apparent that when the delay train 4 is located within shell 1 and pressed into place, any particles of the priming explosive, (e.g. lead azide) which are present on the inner wall of the shell from the earlier pressing step, will be secured in that position. It is known in the art that compressed and confined fine particles of primary explosive, such as, lead azide provides a particularly shock-sensitive configuration. The improved detonator of the present invention, as shown in FIG. 2, provides a substantially shock-insensitive construction.
Referring to FIGS. 2 and 3, 20 is an elongated, tubular, cup-shaped, rigid shell of, for example, aluminum, 21 is a base charge of detonating explosive, for example, PETN, and 22 is priming charge of, for example, lead azide or lead styphnate. A tight-fitting, annular ring or collar 23 of a resilient material, such as, low density polyethylene, is indented into priming charge 22. A malleable metal (e.g. lead) delay train 24 carrying a delay charge 25 of, for example, silicon/red lead mixture rests upon collar 23 and the upper surface of priming charge 22. An ignition charge 26 of, for example, a boron/red lead mixture is adjacent delay train 24. An ignition bridge wire is embedded in ignition charge 26 and connecting leg wires 28 and 29 are held within shell 20 by means of resilient plug 30. Peripheral crimp are shown at 31 and 32.
In the assembly of the detonator of the present invention as shown in FIG. 2, the base charge 21 is introduced into shell 20 and pressed into place with a pointed end or rounded end pin which produces a depression or recess on the surface of base charge 21. Priming charge 22 is introduced and pressed into the depression in base charge 21. Resilient, tight-fitting, annular ring 23 is pressed downward along the inner wall of shell 20 to rest close to the surface of priming charge 22. During its passage, ring 23 effectively sweeps any fine particles of priming charge material 22 which may be adhering to the inner wall of shell 20. Delay train or carrier 24 is then pressed into shell 20 and against ring 23, the pressing action displacing some of the material of the priming charge 22 towards the axial centre of shell 20. The lower end of delay carrier 24 is then in physical contact with the surface of priming charge 22. Ignition charge 26 is introduced into shell 20 as a loose powder after which an assembly comprising leg wires 28 and 29, connected bridge wire 27 and plug 30 are pressed into shell 20 until the base of plug 30 is flush with the surface of ignition charge 26 and bridge wire 27 is embedded in charge 26. Peripheral crimps 31 and 32 secure plug 30 within shell 20.
The detonator of the present invention is particularly adapted to withstand the shock of impact which is often present in multiple charge blasting operations. To demonstrate the substantially improved shock resistance of the detonator of the present invention, testing was undertaken as described in the following Examples.
Underwater shock tests were conducted in a quarry pond. Explosive charges comprising 205 grams of pentolite (a 50/50 PETN/TNT mixture) were detonated underwater and a series of detonators of various manufacture were placed at varying distances from the explosive charges. The pressure generated by the explosive charge at various distances is shown below in Table I.
TABLE I______________________________________Pressure (psi) Distance (cm)______________________________________21500 2012000 407000 604500 802500 100______________________________________
As will be obvious, detonators having the greatest shock resistance will withstand the greater pressure. The results of the shock tests are shown in Table II, below.
TABLE II__________________________________________________________________________ Product Product Product Product Product Product PresentPSI A B C D E F** Invention__________________________________________________________________________ 5000 6000 7000 8000 9000 * * *10000 * *11000120001300014000 *1500016000170001800019000 *20000__________________________________________________________________________ *Pressure at which sympathetic initiation occurs. **Sample F is designed for high pressure, containing lead azide in a rigi element.
As will be seen from the results in Table II, the detonators of the present invention were able to withstand substantially greater pressures than those of the prior art products.
In a field trial conducted in a limestone quarry, two detonators of the present invention were placed in vertical boreholes at distances of four and five feet, respectively, from an adjacent borehole containing 137.5 pounds of slurry explosive blasting agent. The explosive in the donor hole was initiated with a short period delay detonator, No. 4, which has a nominal delay time of 100 milliseconds, the two receptor holes contained No. 5 short delay detonators which have a delay time of 128 milliseconds. The detonators in all three holes were initiated at the same time. The expected nominal time difference between the donor hole and the two receptor holes is 28 milliseconds. When the shot was fired, the receptor holes were timed at 27.6 and 26.9 milliseconds, respectively. Normally, detonators are considered to be within specification if their timing results are within ten percent of the nominal (i.e., 25.2 to 30.8 ms). Thus, the detonators of the present invention showed no evidence of premature initiation.
Regular non-electric detonators tested under the same conditions did not give correct timing results. When an 82.5 pound donor charge was detonated, the regular detonators in the two receptor holes gave timing results of five and sixteen milliseconds and, thus, were initiated prematurely. It was found that regular detonators only started to function normally when the donor charge was reduced to 27.5 pounds.
The above tests were performed under worst case conditions in water-saturated limestone with no free face. The test charges were totally confined and coupled to the donor charge. It is clear from these test results that a regular detonator could not function acceptably in this region (i.e., 4 feet from 82.5 lbs. of explosives) whereas the detonator of the present invention was shown to be able to perform well in excess of the normal limits required.
The material of construction of the shell 20 is preferably aluminum although other materials, such as, copper or molded plastics may be used. As noted heretofore, the annular collar 23 is preferably low density polyethylene of a density of from 0.91 to 0.93, although other resilient but firm materials, such as, rubber, polyurethane and the like may be employed. The collar 23 is, preferably, rectangular in cross-section and has rounded edges. In some cases, a near circular cross-sectional collar may be employed. The size of the collar 23 will be chosen so that it will not interfere with the functioning of the detonator yet will provide the desired wiping action against the inner wall of shell 20. In a conventional detonator having an inner shell diameter of 0.260/0.258 a collar size of O.D. 0.26", and I.D. of 0.195" and a thickness of 0.06" has proven satisfactory.
From the foregoing, it is apparent that the novel detonator of the invention provides a substantial improvement in shock resistance compared to all conventional products tested and its use will result in a measurable increase in efficiency wherever multiple charge delay blasting is employed.

Tries hard - but not quite
Tired room - bed lumpy - pillows cumfy.
No biscuits with tea/coffee facilities. TV ancient but worked - OK. View from window fabulous. WIFI very unreliable in public rooms where i was told it was only available there - when i got back to room the WIFI was excellent. The Pool was excellent - changing rooms could do with make-over and needs at least soap for handwashing and shower. Breakfast OK. Waiting staff for breakfast - excellent. Receptionist could do with some customer service training.

What once was grand is now old and tired (and a bit tatty in places).
This large hotel is up a steep hill, a little way away from the town centre.
The entrance is straight oposite a council estate. You can tell that this was once a splendid place but it has become very tired and dated. The carpets in the halls and on the stairs are threadbare in places and the seams are stuck together with Duck tape. The room was rather small and the bed very uncomfortable with springs that groaned at every move. The en-suite was minute. I really mean it when I say that we saw loads of fatter people in the town that simply would not have been able to squeeze past the wash basin to get to the toilet. The TV was a very old 14" model (not flat screen) with a remote control that did not work. The worst thing was that the room was very hot and there was no fan. The room faced onto the back of the building and was immediately above what appeared to be the staff smoking venue. At midnight, there was a group of eastern Europeans directly under the window, loudly discussing the world. Very difficult to sleep. Would we go there again. No. and at £110.00 it was more expensive than the much better hotel that we stayed at the night before in Ambleside.

FAIL: Woman gets laughed at after bringing up Obamacare at Thanksgiving…
By: Terresa Monroe-Hamilton
Hahahahahahaha…. ROTFLMAO. Snort, giggle… Lol – the burps, the laughing, the Marxism. Thanks to CJ. Still weeping from laughing. 😉
Read more at the epic Right Scoop…
Posted in full from the esteemed Weasel Zippers, because, hell… this is just soooo damned funny!
Here's What Happened When Families Brought Up Obamacare Over Thanksgiving…
Lol, yes, that idea worked so well!
Via Newsbusters:
Thanks, Obama! Here's what happened when Obamacare came up at Thanksgiving dinners.
… For some families, Obamacare at the holiday table was a recipe for disaster. New Thanksgiving tradition: Screaming arguments.
Thanks, Obama (six tweets this list and the one which follows were selected from longer compilations – Ed.):
– "My family is drunk and screaming at each other about Obamacare."
– "Family fighting over Obamacare. lol here we go."
– "Yay! Inevitable Obamacare extended family argument time!"
– "Arguing about Obamacare and social media at the dinner table…. I'm so done wow can I sleep now?"
– "Oh no. Someone brought up health insurance and obamacare and now theres lots of yelling."
– "Everybody's drunk and yelling at each other about obamacare and its not even 5 yet."
But Obamacare chatter at the dinner table didn't just lead to misery. For some, there was family unity … but not in the way Dems intended:
– "We held a family vote on Obama Care and we were unanimous in being "agin" it. First time we've all agreed on anything."
– "Followed obama's advice to discuss #obamacare during turkey dinner. Family consensus was obama is worst Pres in US history."
– "Well we sat down as a family and all talked about the failure of #obamacare today at dinner. Thats what we were supposed to do, right?"
– "We discussed #Obamacare at Thanksgiving dinner. We all still agree that it sucks."
– "The only remotely liberal family member at Thanksgiving dinner today didn't say a word in defense of Obamacare. Sorry, @OFA."
– "Here was our conversation about O'care at dinner; Obamacare sucks, now please pass the mashed potatoes" — "#Obamacare talk w family went better then expected. They all agreed ACA should be repealed!!"
– "We discussed obamacare over dinner as we were instructed. First time this family has been in total agreement about anything. Obamacare SUCKS"
This pretty much rules folks… Ranks right up there with the time in college I got drunk with my cousin, came home and puked in my Aunt's bedroom over Christmas. Epic fail. Christmas – rinse, repeat.

The six-party talks on the North Korean nuclear problem are entering a very delicate stage. Modalities of actual disablement and dismantlement are to be agreed upon and implemented, and for the United States security issues are at the forefront. But the North Koreans' attention is now focused on the provision of energy security as a prerequisite for closing down the existing nuclear program. At this CNAPS Presentation, Professor Georgy Toloraya discussed the options of economic assistance to North Korea, which is to be provided in a manner that would increase security and promote the country's economic "conventionalization." He argued that the energy sphere is a priority area which could set the pattern of future economic changes in DPRK and calls for a coordinated response to this challenge from the members of the six-party talks.
Professor Georgy Toloraya, a CNAPS Visiting Fellow at Bookings, is a diplomat who has served most recently as the Russian Federation's Consul General in Sydney, Australia. Previous positions include Deputy Director-General at the First Asian Department, Ministry of Foreign Affairs; Deputy Chief of Mission at the Russian Embassy in the Republic of Korea; and economic officer in the Soviet embassy in Pyongyang. In addition to his successful diplomatic career, Dr. Toloraya has published many scholarly articles and books and is the founder and research director of Center of Contemporary Korean Studies, IMEMO. He received his M.A. at Moscow Institute of International Relations, Ph.D. in Economics at the Graduate School of the Institute of Economics of the World Socialist System, and Doctor of Economy degree at the Academy of Science of the Russian Federation.

Internet access limited by Iran ahead of protests
Last Updated: Sunday, December 6, 2009 - 17:22
Tehran: Tehran residents say authorities have moved to limit Internet access ahead of expected anti-government protests to deny the opposition a vital means of communication.
They said on Sunday they were unable to access e-mail and that the government`s blockage of opposition Web sites has been tightened.
It was not immediately clear whether the limited access was nationwide or limited to Tehran.
Separately, authorities have told journalists working for foreign media organisations not to leave their offices to cover the street protests expected on Monday.
December 7 is a traditional day for rallies marking the killing of three students during a 1953 anti-US protest. It has served as a day for pro-reform protests since the 1990s.

Which country has the biggest coffee, tea industry?
Published Monday, March 3, 2014 2:58PM EST
When it comes to hot beverages, the world is divided in two camps: coffee drinkers and tea drinkers, and seldom the twain shall meet.
That's the synopsis of the latest report from Euromonitor International, which found that for most markets, consumers who are primarily coffee drinkers are less likely to drink much tea, and vice versa.
While this generalization is true of Western Europe, the Middle East and Africa, the distinction is blurrier in Eastern Europe, the report notes.
At $130 billion, the US was the biggest coffee market in terms of retail value in 2013, followed by Brazil, Germany, Japan and France.
Meanwhile, tea is a $90 billion industry in China, making it the world's biggest retail market. Rounding out the top five tea markets are Russia, Japan, the US and Germany.
The report also points out that fruit, green and herbal teas are growing in popularity outside key tea markets.
In coffee, the popularity of single-serve pods shows no signs of slowing, while in Asia, instant coffee enjoys singular popularity.
Here are the largest coffee markets in the world, in retail value terms:
- Brazil
- Germany
- Japan
- France
- Russia
- Italy
- Canada
- Poland
The biggest tea markets in the world in terms of retail value:
- China
- Russia

Fatwa No : 90849
When was the prayer made compulsory?
Fatwa Date : Thul-Qi'dah 14, 1426 / 14-12-2005
When (Salat) prayer made compulsory?
All perfect praise be to Allaah, The Lord of the Worlds. I testify that there is none worthy of worship except Allaah, and that Muhammad is His slave and Messenger. We ask Allaah to exalt his mention as well as that of his family and all his companions.
The prayer was made compulsory on Al-Israa' (the night of Ascension) about five years before the migration, or six years according to another opinion. Al-Mardaawi, may Allaah have mercy on him, said that it happened approximately one year after Muhammad, the Prophet was made a Prophet. However, Ibn Hajar said: 'A group of scholars are of the view that there was no obligatory prayer, it was only the night prayer that was legislated without being specified as to how many. However, Al-Harbi is of the view that the obligatory prayer was two Rak'as in the morning and two Rak'as in the evening. Meanwhile, Ash-Shaafi'ee stated the view of some scholars, that the night prayer was made obligatory and then it was abrogated by the Saying of Allaah (which means): {So recite as much of the Quran as may be easy for you.}[Quran 73:20]. Thus the obligatory prayer was to perform the night prayers during some of the nights and not every night, and subsequently this was abrogated by enjoining the five daily obligatory prayers.'
Allaah Knows best.

Instead of your human weakness, see God's strength in you!
Ephesians 4:32--Be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving each other, just as in Christ God forgave you.
Rhema Word for the Day, Sunday, August 2, 2015: Despair, hopelessness and uncertainty may be consuming your mind right now, as a particular trial revolves around you at this time with no visible resolution. Your only means of endurance is praise! Rest in the assurance that God is at work right now-no matter how grim what is immediately in front of you appears to be! Your praise will drive out your despair!
1 Peter 5:10--And after you have suffered a little while, the God of all grace, who has called you to his eternal glory in Christ, will himself restore, confirm, strengthen and establish you. ESV
Rhema Word for the Day, Saturday, August 1, 2015: Today, dare to believe that you can exchange a spirit of heaviness into your biggest praise!
Isaiah 61:1-3--The Spirit of the Lord God is upon me, because the Lord has anointed me to bring good news to the afflicted; He has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to captives and freedom to prisoners; to proclaim the favorable year of the Lord and the day of vengeance of our God; to comfort all who mourn, to grant those who mourn in Zion, giving them a garland instead of ashes the oil of gladness instead of mourning, the mantle of praise instead of a spirit of fainting. So they will be called oaks of righteousness, the planting of the Lord, that He may be glorified.

NOW THEY CAN SHARE WITH THEIR OWN CHILDREN THE HIGHLIGHTS OF THEIR LIVES, AND START NEW COLLECTIONS FOR THEIR CHILDREN. Patricia P."
11/17/2014 - "I ordered a baby boy ornament for my new little grandson. This is his first Christmas. As with his sisters and cousins, I have done this for every grandchild. The previous three grandchildren ornaments have come from OrnamentShop. Obviously I have been well pleased with the ornaments or I would not continue buying from them. The ornaments are always packed well so that shipping does not damage them. This ornament arrived surprisingly fast. I wasn't expecting it so soon after I ordered it. But more important to me than quick shipping is the quality ornament. The ornaments are just as described only better. When you can see the finished product in your hands, it gives me a good feeling knowing that this quality will still be there for their lifetimes. Thank you so much for your excellent work and reasonable prices. Jeanine L. "

"Keshik" isn't necessarily that bad at Photoshop, but he got lazy and now he pays in blood! I play WarCraft III just as much as the next jobless loser, but even I can't tell what he bothered to do to this image, that is if he bothered to do anything at all. This isn't "Ordinary Game Screenshots Phriday" you crazy idiot! Go shove your print screen button down your throat!
I would just like to point out that adding your favorite cartoon character to a random image doesn't make it gold. Case in point, this "grr1d" picture. Wow, it's a cartoon character thrown in. How exactly does this make war fun? I don't know, but I do know I wish somebody would shoot me. I'm tired of all this.
"retarded man" just threw in some party hats. This magnum opus must have taken an entire two minutes, what with the pasting and all that. After that, there simply was no time to try to match the colors, because that would have required clicking the mouse at least a couple more times. THANKS FOR THE EFFORT PAL!
"7-12-Twice" decided to combine a battleship with a cruise ship, creating this seamless beauty. You really can't tell where he edited, or even that this is Photoshopped. It's just that amazing! Seriously guy, if you want to cut and paste stuff, at least go to the trouble of actually cutting before you paste. Never mind that the perspectives don't match, you could have at least fucking made a clean, precise selection before you pasted! Instead we get a giant blobby chunk of a battleship just floating above this cruise ship. ARGHHH!! If I wanted to look at unhealthy blobs, I'd ask for a sample of your urine.
Ariana Grande? No way! Here's a podcast that looks squarely at Ariana Grande and says, 'No way!'
TECHNICALLY A DOG - I have expertly subdivided a horse to create what is, scientifically speaking, a dog. I have done this 10 times before and plan to keep doing it forever!!! $400. 555-2466
League of Legends has 600 characters and 11,000 skills. These are the only ones you need.
The water got bigger? my sand castle was destroyed and we had to move. Who did this?
