A pair of old stone coastguard cottages renovated to a high standard in a unique setting 25 yards from their own shingle beach with breathtaking views over the lovely Kenmare Estuary off the southern tip of the beautiful 'Ring of Kerry' in south-west Ireland.
Pier Cottage can be rented throughout the year as 2 separate units or one interconnecting cottage. West End sleeps up to 7 in 3 bedrooms and East End up to 4 - 1 double 1 twin.
The countryside immediately surrounding Castlecove is ideally suited for all types of walking, ranging from gentle strolls along lovely sandy beaches to more serious hikes over craggy hills. The famous 'Kerry Way' walk takes you along the ridge of hills, all the way from Waterville to Kenmare and is well signed, but still wonderfully unspoiled.
You can swim, row and shrimp by the cottage or just relax and watch the seals!. There are several sandy beaches within ten minutes drive.
My name is Susannah Adlington and I am a portrait artist living in Hampshire, England with my husband Michael. My father's family have had Irish connections for several hundred years, and my parents bought Westcove House in the early 60s after coming across a 'for sale' sign whilst holidaying in the area. It was love at first sight and since then four generations of our family have been enjoying holidays here – we just love the place and feel sure that you would too. Indeed many of our guests return to Westcove time and time again – something which we view as the highest form of praise!
We purchased and restored this pair of old coastguard cottages when they came on the market in the early 1990s. Pier Cottage has a unique, magical location situated below Westcove House with its own shingle beach.
Pier Cottage is on the water's edge and immerses you in the wild natural beauty of Kerry. It is ideal for all kinds of activities such as hill-walking, sightseeing, watersports or writing and perfect for a quiet secluded break. Watch the seals playing on the rocks and the magical ever-changing light. As the sun sets over the Atlantic, you can nestle up by the fire, guarded against the elements and listen to the cries of the curlews...whilst you sip and Irish whiskey!
Pier Cottage is booked at the time of receipt of a deposit of 25% of the rental. The balance is due six weeks before arrival. Please use booking form on owners website - www.westcove.ie
Payment accepted by Direct Transfer,-(details sent on request)-, Visa/Mastercard , or PayPal:- Euro ,(or Sterling at current exchange rate)
Please refer to or request Owners Terms and Conditions for further information.
My husband and I and our three kids stayed at the West end Pier Cottage for one week this July. It was an unforgettable experience for us.
The Stone house is equiped with all you need, even a dish washer, a laundry machine, a fire place and games for the Kids and brochures and information of local attractions. Susannah has even put together some suggestions of trips around the area (we enjoyed the Skellig round trip), besides all useful information you can find in advance on the Westcove Web site. The friendlyness of the People is outstanding; Susannah the owner with her great hospitality, Katherine the manager who explained everything at site and by good look we had these very kind neighbours at the Est End Pier Cottage who even provided us wih freshly caught fish!
We found it ideally located directly besides the water for using the rowing boat and for shrimp catching, and at the ring of Kerry for trips. There are stores in Kenmare and small Shops in Sneem, West Cove and Cahardaniel which are open every day. We also loved the crumbles, pies and croissants from the nearby bakery and suggest the Blind Piper Pub for food and live music on Thursday evenings.
We highly recommend the lovely Pier Cottage and we hope to come back one day!
Boschetti Family, Switzerland
If you are looking for a remarkable Irish vacation Pier Cottage is the perfect choice. I wish to thank Susannah for the supportive and flexible booking, as well as Katherine for making us feel at home. It is difficult to say what was best; waking up to the sight and sounds of seals playing in the cove, the breathtaking view, the ideal location on the Ring of Kerry for shopping and sightseeing, or just the feeling of being at home sitting in front of an open fire. To say the least anyone staying at the Pier Cottage will leave with heavy heart and the intent to come back. Thank you for a fantastic vacation and we will see you in the future. Ward, Marlies and Steven
We booked the entire cottage, my wife and I and our 2 year old girl and invited my sister and her husband and their 18 month old boy to join us. It was ideal for sharing with another small family and a magical place for children. Hares grazing on the lawn, seals basking on the rocks, boats sailing by... and for adults direct access to the water where we swam and used our canoes and Kayaks every day. Also a local cafe/bakery 10 minutes walks away with amazing coffee and pastries. We got great weather so breakfast/dinner/lunch was served on the benches overlooking Kenmare bay. Traditional cottage with all you need for a holiday and perfect hostess locally.
From the moment we arrived, this was perfect. Blackberries to pick along the driveway, bees buzzing amongst the wild fuschia, gorgeous sunrises...
Our family LOVES Pier Cottage. It is an incredible place to stay - we were there for 2 weeks in early September. Gathering yourself to get there is one thing, but BEING there is reward enough. From the excellent facilities (3 BR, 2BA, ocean right out the door) to the friendliness of the people (thank you, Susannah and Katherine), it all made for a memorable stay. There's a row boat you can use to get across the harbor mouth to a beautiful sandy beach (try at low tide, it's easier).
The cottage was clean and warm - internet worked just fine and the large kitchen had just about anything you'd need. Walk out the door and there's a stone beach, which our daughter clambered on several times daily to see what the tide left for her. Behind the cottage is another stone beach, also perfect for learning about tides, nature, and more. There's a fireplace to add to the atmosphere, laundry facilities, and thick stone walls to keep the rain out!
We learned about local markets (Kenmare, Sneem) and got glorious fresh fish and veggies for our meals. We traveled to Skellig Chocolate Company, and Portmagee for more fish. We enjoyed Derrynane beach (and horseback riding there, with Eagle Rock Equestrian Center), and Derrynane House (home of the Liberator, Daniel O'Connell). We got THE BEST croissants in the world from Jane Urquhart, right up the drive at Westcove Bakery. It was wonderful.
Only an hour from Kenmare or Killarney, Pier Cottage is ideally located to explore Co Kerry - but beware, the roads are tiny and winding! Mostly, we preferred to stay home and just absorb the beauty of the place. Westcove harbor has many small fishing and sailboats, some go out daily. There are seals out from shore on a rock, so find the binoculars - they are cool!
We LOVE Pier Cottage and highly recommend it. It would be perfect for a family or larger family gathering (rent both ends). Although it is an hour's drive to larger cities, for those families that just want to absorb the beauty of Ireland, this is the place. There is plenty to do locally, and plenty to do in your own back yard here. I can't recommend this place highly enough - unlimited stars!

Pier Cottage is situated 15kms west of Sneem and 15 kms east of Watervillle (with its championship golfcourse ) overlooking the Kenmare Estuary in South Kerry - an ideal location from which to explore this magical part of Ireland.
You can row, fish and shrimp from rocks just by Pier Cottage; or go deep sea, lake or river fishing. In summer there is a fun watersports centre nearby; 5 excellent golf courses within 40 minutes drive - see details below -, horseriding for all ages and endless beautiful walks.
There is plenty to see and do within 15 minutes drive of Westcove:
Visit DERRYNANE HOUSE & NATIONAL PARK, ancestral home of one of Ireland's leading historical figures, Daniel O'Connell known as 'The Liberator'. A 19th century politician, Daniel championed the cause of the Irish in the British parliament and succeeded in achieving Catholic Emancipation, his house and grounds have been preserved and are open to the public for most of the year. The house is surrounded by spectacular sub-tropical gardens & the lovely tea-rooms have an irresistible selection of home-made cakes. Don't forget to pick up a map of the 'FAIRY TRAIL' and see how many 'fairy houses' you can discover in the gardens!
In Caherdaniel stop for a Guinness at Freddy's – a timeless pub, frequented by locals - or go to The Blind Piper – a younger atmosphere with excellent, home-cooked food and live music on Thursday evenings. In summer, there's a bustling market in the Community Centre between 10 and 12.30 on Friday mornings with lots of local produce and crafts.
The largest and arguably the best example of a pre-Christian ring fort in Ireland, STAIGUE FORT is about 3 miles above Castlecove, less than 15 minutes drive away. It is worth a visit, especially on a clear day, when the views out over the Atlantic are breathtaking.
A boat trip to SKELLIG ISLANDS, a Unesco World Heritage site, is a must! Rising majestically from the sea, Skellig Michael towers 218m above sea level and on the summit of this awe-inspiring rock you will find perfectly preserved beehive huts, part of a 6th century monastic settlement. On the spectacular Small Skellig 23,000 pairs of gannets nest on every available ledge making it the second largest gannet colony in the world.
Kerry is a paradise for walkers. Stroll along the beautiful beaches and dunes of Derrynane or venture up into the hills and follow the well signed 'Kerry Way'.
40 minutes drive east along the north coast of the beautiful Kenmare Estuary, is the picturesque town of KENMARE, well-known for its varied and tempting shops and teeming with excellent bars and restaurants ... a popular choice for the ladies, especially on Wednesdays when there is a lively market all year round selling everything from crafts and jewellery to a mouth-watering selection of cheeses, pates and other home-made delicacies!
Drive south from Kenmare over spectacular mountain passes, to explore the Beara Peninsula which has so much to offer visitors, from the imposing stately home, BANTRY HOUSE, the SCULPTURE PARK and a selection of beautiful gardens ...
The one hour drive to KILLARNEY is probably the most scenic in Ireland - a winding road with magnificent views over its famous lakes and mountains. The town itself has become overly popular, teeming with tourists, huge hotels and souvenir shops, however it's well worth visiting Muckross House and Gardens and the 15th century Muckross Abbey on the lakes shortly before Killarney.
Wherever you are in Kerry you will find excellent and varied restaurants offering delicious seafood & quality local produce. The convivial atmosphere of the Irish pub is legendary and most serve great value home-cooked food. The whole family can be assured of a very warm welcome. Kerry people are known for their wit... you will be drawn into conversation with the locals .... so enjoy making new friends, the 'craic' (fun) & stories ..and more stories!! Don't forget to catch a live music session one evening!
GOLF: Pier Cottage makes an ideal base for golfers wishing to play the legendary courses of the 'Kingdom of Kerry'…. Use your own transport or a local minibus can be arranged to take you to any of the following courses – check their websites for details:
Within 25 mins drive – WATERVILLE – www.watervillegolflinks.ie – magnificent links course (always rated one of the top 10 in Ireland) – a must for serious golfers. SKELLIG BAY - www.skelligbay.com – a fairly new challenging course with breathtaking views over sea and lake – reasonable green fees. PARKNASILLA – www.parknasillahotel.ie - just east of Sneem – very scenic 12 hole course – fun for all the family

Robust Diagnostic Regression Analysis
€ 165,49
Lieferbar innerhalb von 2-3 Tagen
August 2000
BeschreibungThis book is about using graphs to understand the relationship between a regression model and the data to which it is fitted. Because of the new way in which models are fitted, for example by least squares, we can lose information about the effect of individual observations on inferences about the form and parametersof the model. The methods developed in this book reveal how the fitted regression model depends on individual observations and on groups of observations. Robust procedures can sometimes reveal this structure, but downweight or discard some observations. The novelty in this book is to combine robustness and a "forward" search through the data with regression diagnostics and computer graphics.

PressestimmenFrom the reviews:
"The text is lucidly written and theoretical discussions are amply complemented with examples and exercises. The book is accessible to students and users of statistical methods. It could, without doubt, serve as a textbook for courses on applied regression and generalized linear models. It will be a welcome addition to the resources of any applied statistician."
"I would recommend practitioners of regression, this is, probably most of us, to read and use this book."
"I would recommend ROBUST DIAGNOSTICS REGRESSION ANALYSIS and tools for anyone who does a fair amount of applied regression analysis on small- to moderate-sized datasets. It would be especially useful for anyone who uses nonlinear regression and/or generalized linear regression, where many fewer diagnostic tools are available. As a textbook, it would be good as a supplemental or even a primary text in a masters-level regression course. Researchers in other fields who do their own regression analysis also should be referred to this text, which they will find quite understandable."
"This book presents a host of graphical tools for regression data analysis, based on the 'forward search' approach. ... In order to make the work accessible to users, the authors have developed a number of SPlus programs. ... it would be an excellent reference book for students as well as other data analysts." (Debasis Sengupta, Sankhya, Vol. 65 (4), 2003)
"The topic of this monograph is the use of certain types of regression diagnostics, based on a robust forward search ... . the monograph is absolutely worth reading. ... The monograph is set up in a very instructive manner ... . The material is treated in a clear way, the book is very well written and understandable. Summarizing, this monograph can be recommended to readers who want to learn ... about the process of modeling in regression ... ." (C. Becker, Metrika, July, 2002)
"This book presents highly informative graphical methods to understand how a fitted regression model depends on ... observations. ... The book is intended to be accessible to students and practitioners, and ... provides useful material for professional statisticians. ... An S-Plus library of functions for implementing many of the methods presented in the book is available ... . This makes it very easy for anyone to apply the ideas ... . the authors have made an important contribution to the field of regression ... ." (Hariharan Iyer, Zentralblatt MATH, Vol. 964, 2001)
"This very down-to-earth volume explores regression models via a 'forward search' technique ... . Programming was done in GAUSS, and S-Plus functions have been developed. A web site provides programs and data ... . These methods provide additional analysis techniques for regression practitioners, and the book is a welcome addition to the literature." (N. R. Draper, Short Book Reviews, Vol. 21 (1), 2001)

Jurčo is more of an exception than a rule, same as Reway this year, the other 95s seem to be a further proof of what czechexpert said.
Also you made it sound as if the players you named made up the core of the NT, while half of them even aren´t NT players at the moment (despite having played some games for the NT in the past). Mikú is the one that is 100% NT player, but he didn´t become one until playing for years with Pálffy, Bliňák is another one. Kytnár might beome another one. With Mihálik, most of us wish he wasn´t. Zagrapan has played at the WC under Filc in the past, but he´s been bouncing around leagues/teams in Europe for years now, in the last months in CZE. Bartánus also got some games in the past, but since then has done nothing special anywhere outside Slovakia. Same for Marcinko.
Looking at last years WC roster out of the U25 players on the team, only Bliňák and Mikú played in the CHL and Tatar in the AHL and they all played in Sovakia during their draft year. The next three players have never played in NA (Hudáček L, Hudáček J and Hačák).
Out of the nine U25 players that played at the Deutschland Cup this year,three have played in the CHL. Marcinko was there pre-draft, but ťastný only played quite a limited time there and that was after he was 18. The third one was Janus who left quite early, but that´s it of a special case as he´s a goalie. Also Mikú (the D, not the F) has played in the AHL for several years, but once again only after his draft. The others - Ďaloga, tajnoch, Galambo, Hudáček and Tybor have spent their whole careers in Slovakia/Europe. Of course we might count with the fact that some players that went through the CHL are still in NA in the AHL and therefore weren´t available for the DC. However the three players who are performing well enough to warrant a selection - Tatar, Pánik, Marinčin - all went to NA after their drafts and all have played at least some time against men back at home. (and in Tatar´s case he´s never played in the CHL at all)
So, I think you don´t have much proof that your statement "it seemed to be the irght route for them" is absolutely right. Because there is no 100% right route, especially not one that would work for everyone. There´s way too many factors included, a lot of them can´t be influenced. Even though czechexpert says that the CHL is the right route for many players after their 18 and I value his opinion and work with the presumtion that the majority of the time he´s right, even he´s not ALWAYS right. As an example I believe he thought that a guy like Richard Mráz would do just fine in the CHL, yet Mráz is now back in Slovakia without achieving much in the OHL (though of course there´s the issue of his serious injury last year, but from what I understand his lak of success in the league had more to do with trust issues with the coach than with that.)
Bliznak was drafted out of Dubnica, remember watching him on poor, cold rink in Dubnica...
Marcinko also played in Slovakia during his draft year, drafted out of Kosice.
I don´t know what went wrong in case of Richard Mraz in Ottawa but it´s true that I thought that he will be good player there...

'Diving' in football matches should be more severly punished, even after the match.
'Diving' is bringing down the whole reputation of football. Trying to trick and deceive the referee is cheating and too often it goes un-punished. At present, players can be suspended and fined for violent conduct even if the referee does not see the incident at the time. This should also be the case for diving.

Bringing down the reputation of the sport
Diving is bringing down the sports reputation. People are being turned off from the constant cheating that they witness when they turn on a 'top-level' match. Football players are seen as not only cheats, but wimps. Diving is the greatest advert Rugby has ever had!
Diving is not necessarily done with the intention of cheating. Sometimes if a player is in a position where a tackle has thrown them off balance it is safer for them to go to the floor than to try and stay on their feet and risk injury. Rugby players should know that a controlled 'going to ground' is less likely to cause an injury than struggling to stay on their feet. An injury can ruin a player's career.
It is possible to charge players for violent behaviour after a match if the referee missed it. Diving is also cheating and should be punishable in the same way.
The degree of these offences is wildly different. Violent behaviour is more than just cheating, it is tantamount to assault. Even if you accept that diving is a form of cheating, it is not as serious as to merit that level of attention.
Diving is an aspect of the 'dirty' side of football; by punishing it we increase respect and sportsmanship.
Football has an endemic problem of cheating and lack of respect. Diving is the most elaborate form of cheating in professional football, but it stems from a basic disrespect and lack of authority in the game. Referees frequently lose control of games and scuffles break out, whilst flagrant verbal abuse is inflicted on the referee as a matter of course. Ashley Cole turning his back on referee Mike Riley in the match at White Hart Lane in March 2008 is a case in point; having committed an egregious foul on the Tottenham defender Hutton, Cole proceeded to give a torrent of abuse, blatant disrespect, and ultimately only received a yellow card. Change must come from the top. Referees must be paid more, must be given the power to give cards for every instance of dissent, and should be helped to achieve this by the adoption of the 'sin bin'.
Diving is already adequately punished; through the surprisingly effective method of public ridicule. With the action replay being screened on television, players know that an obvious dive is going to be immediately spotted by the people who really matter; the fans. Referees are undoubtedly in a difficult position due to the highly competetive atmosphere of football. Yet the solution is not to make their lives more difficult by telling them to strictly punish an offence which is extremely difficult for them to correctly identify.
Let the ridicule of fans and pundits get the message through to football stars that diving is not on. Their reputation is key to their career; it is what gets them sponsorship, transfers and big salaries. It is in their interests to be anti-diving.
It shows the player in poor light!
The player who dives shows that he and he is team are desperate to win!!
By hook or by crook!
It indicates that the team is incompetent for winning the match on its own capabilities and thus has to resort to unfair means.
Reducing such incidences would surely make us
"rejoice in the beautiful game,
everybody at the end of the day"
Diving is part of the game
Like it or not, diving has become an important part of the sport. Being able to pull off a convincing dive in the penalty area is just as an important a skill as any other other. If the referee doesn't spot it, they have mastered the skill.
Cheating is not 'part of the sport'- if diving is where your skill lies, perhaps that is what you should compete in!
Taking power away from the referees
By punishing players after the match is over, you are discouraging refs from taking important decisions during games. If they are not 100% sure that there was a dive, referees will not take action at the time because they know it can just be verified afterwards.
Referees will still have to make a good judgement in the game. For instance, if they award a penalty for what later turns out to be a dive, the resulting goal and course of the game will still stand. It is still essential that the result of the game is as fair as possible. This new rule would just allow for punishment for diving players if it is found that a dive had occurred that had not been spotted in the game.
Diving is merely a response to overly aggressive physical play, a necessary evil.
You watch Barcelona, and you marvel at the aesthetics of a superior, forward-thinking philosophy of football. Small but quick, technically masterful, attacking in spirit, these players are playing 'the right way.'
Fortunately for them, in general they are protected from bad or reckless tackles by the referees in Spain and Europe. Surely it cannot be a legitimate tactic to 'get in their faces', to deliberately go in hard, to try and 'put them off their game'. And yet some football philosophies actively encourage such negative play, such forms of 'anti-football'. The game is physical, they say, stand up, be a man! Winning is more important than beauty or art or entertainment. Football is about winning, at any cost.
And so Barca (now playing in red) come to play Holland in the World Cup. Holland, although talented and technical in their own right, decide that the only way to beat them is to hurt them, to stop them. And the referee lets them. This is surely an injustice. What are the players to do? They just want to play their football, they don't want to hurt anyone in retaliation. Their only option is to draw the referee's attention to this foul play. It is their only response to this great injustice. Until all referees offer consistent protection from dangerous foul play, the sensible thing is to try and encourage the referee to punish the real culprits. If that means feigning injury, then that is a necessary evil.

Diving needs to be kicked out of football, because of it old fashioned tackles can't be made anymore, that's also to do with soft referees these days!

Can I wear a large plaster over my eyebrow the day following an eyebrow transplant provided it does not rub on the eyebrow. If not is there any other way to disguise the redness?
Can I Wear a Large Plaster over my Eyebrow the Day Following an Eyebrow Transplant?
Doctor Answers 4
Always check with your surgeon if you want to do something out of the ordinary after surgery.
Touching Eyebrows After Eyebrow Transplant
Nothing should touch the eyebrow the day following transplant. The grafts are not securely rooted until 7 days post-surgery, so you should avoid any unnecessary contact until then. As the other doctors suggested, try a large pair of sunglasses that rest away from your face.
Web reference: http://www.dermhairclinic.com/fue-hair-transplant-how-long-until/
Eyebrow Disguise after Transplant
I do not put anything over the eyebrow after a hair transplant. If you are concerned about disguising the redness or crusts, I would suggest wearing a large pair of sunglasses that do not touch the eyebrow area.

The horses feed on bat-moon meadow
their stone age stable now cobwebbed
hooves long rested from run
gone dusty by the wheels of metal
yet they paleolithic horses
graze in night's paraffin-lit glow
smelling of stable and the wild run
and in the stillness finding
their world crumbled.
Dear Poet Friends, being fond of Art, I wanted to compose on
this topic for a long time in a simplified form! Egyptian Art and
Architecture influenced the Early Greeks, who in turn influenced the Romans and other civilizations! Initially Art and architecture, religion and culture, were all closely inter-related! Real distinction emerged with the Italian Renaissance. Here I have used only a portion of my personal notes. Hope you find this interesting to read! Sorry for the length! Kindly give Comments after you have managed to read the entire portion in your spare time. Thanks, -Raj
Art over the centuries has been variously defined,
But an all embracing definition is rather hard to find!
Ayn Rand defined Art as a recreation of reality according to
artist's values, his view of existence, and choice;
Who recreates by a selective rearrangement of the elements
of reality, and not simply out of a void!
Study of Art History is a study of man's creative evolution;
A progress of his wakened consciousness, and a restless
striving towards perfection!
The progress of his mind, taste and skill, which has gradually
evolved through past traditions;
Finding ultimate expression in his multi-faceted creations!
I commence this story from its earliest days, and mention those
Ancient Civilizations which influenced Art in many ways.
Art has been greatly influenced by religion, culture and history;
Therefore, knowing these aspects becomes necessary to
fully appreciate this Art Story!
Let us take a ride on the magic carpet of History, down
past millenniums to begin our Art Story;
Right into the ancient Paleolithic, Mesolithic and Neolithic
Eras of the Stone Age,
When early humans left their creative imprints on rock
surfaces and on walls of caves!
Long before the evolution of any proper coherent speech
or communication,
In some 350 caves of France and Spain are seen paintings
of large wild animals like horses, antelopes and bison;
Bearing witness to the story of gradual human evolution!
The cave paintings of Chauvet, Cosquer, and Lascaux, date
between 8000 and 1700 BC,
Drawn by nameless and faceless people who emerged from
an inhospitable Ice Age;
Those nomadic tribes who were hunter-gatherers living in
pre-historic caves!
The Story of Art therefore begins before recorded History,
Pieced together by scholars with the help of science and
During the Neolithic Period beginning around 8,000BC,
Ancient man became gradually sedentary, engaging in
agriculture and animal husbandry!
With these nomads settling down in small communities,
Art became mystical and monumental in range;
As seen in the megalithic (large stone) structures of the
famous Stonehenge!
This type of post and lintel structure is also found in ancient
Egyptian architecture, and later in Greece as its special
Art History spans the entire history of mankind,
Right from the pre-historic days, up to our modern times!
Man's everlasting quest for immortality lies etched on
rocks and raised stone edifices, defying marauding Time!
Let us now travel fast forward on our magic carpet to reach
the Fertile Crescent,
Where the Tigress and the Euphrates Rivers flow, to the
Ancient Civilization of the Sumerians! (3500-2300BC)
The birth of civilization has been traced to Southern
Mesopotamia, where the Sumerians built their first cities,
As the earliest River Valley Civilization around 3500 BC!
It was a period when writing got invented in its earliest
Cuneiform form; (around 3400 BC)
When Patriarch Abraham established the worship of a Single
God, in a revolutionary religious reform! (Judaism)
Mesopotamian Civilization as the source of our earliest
surviving Art dates back to 3500BC;
When major civilizations like the Sumerian, Akkadian,
Babylonian, Hitties, Assyrian, and the Persians, in this
chronological sequence, contributed to Art History!
Mesopotamian Art in general glorified their powerful rulers
and their connection with divinity;
Reflected on their city gates, palace complexes and ziggurats,
are scenes of both victorious wars and their prosperity!
Art was then highly functional and repetitive; depicting
love of beauty, a sense of order, and power of hierarchy,
- in their sculptures and motifs.
However, no signatures were ever found bearing the name
of the Artist!
It is interesting to note that both the potter's wheel and the
cart wheel, made their first appearance around 3500 BC
and 3200 BC respectively;
With the Sumerians contributing to art and culture, and the
progress of Human Civilization immensely!
(Ziggurats are semi-pyramid like structures with steps, a temple complex located in the center of all ancient Sumerian cities-states! Saragon the Great of Akkad from the North, defeated the Sumerians in the South, & united entire Mesopotamia around 2300 BC, for the first time in Mesopotamian History, & they ruled for 200 years.)
Next we travel to an isolated area of north-east Africa,
Where the White Nile flows down from Lake Victoria.
The Nile enters Upper Egypt traveling through Sudan,
Is joined by the Blue Nile at Khartoum to become one!
Continues its flow north through Egypt Lower, flowing
into the Mediterranean as the World's longest river!
Historian Herodotus had called Egypt 'the gift of the Nile';
Ancient Egypt became a rich treasure trove of art and
architecture for all times!
The Nile valley area was protected by the desert on its
east and the west;
In the north by the Mediterranean, and towards the
south by a rugged mountainous terrain!
Annual flooding of the Nile along with an effective
irrigational network,
Ensured Egypt's prosperous stability, congenial for her
many innovative architectures and art works!
Egyptian Art got shaped by her geography, mythology
and her polytheistic religion;
Also by their preoccupation with after-life and belief in
the immortal soul's continuation;
Thus elaborate funeral rites were performed by priests for
the body's preservation by mummification! *
('KA'= was a real astral twin or stellar double of an Individual, which continued to exist even after death, requiring the same sustenance as the humans, so food offerings were made in the coffins! 'BA'= shaped like a human-headed bird, composed of non-physical attributes of an Individual. 'BA' collected the deceased's personality after death from the mummified remains & united it with the 'KA', making a person complete; thereby making it possible for the person to be reborn as 'AKH' (Star), - in its ultimate unchanging form, to join Osiris in the 'Happy Fields'! Since this journey to the next world was fraught with danger, magical funerary spells & rites were performed by the priests, with incantations from the 'Book of the Dead', inside the funeral chamber of the Pyramid!)
Art During Old, Middle, and New Kingdom Period:
Egyptian Art was concerned with ensuring continuity of the
universe, their Gods, the King and the people;
A projection into eternity a version of reality pure and free
from all earthly evil!
Therefore in ancient Egyptian society, conformity over
individuality was always encouraged;
Artists worked in groups with conservative adherence to
rules, order and form,
And all individual artistic initiatives strictly discouraged !
Their earliest pyramids the Mastaba, the Step, and the Bent
Pyramids were all prototypes;
While the Great Pyramid of Giza built for Pharaoh Kufu,
- was the first true pyramid which still survives!
Art comes down to us as 'funerary art' designed for the tombs,
Which was to accompany the royalty in their journey to an
afterlife, with its symbolic forms!
This symbolism is seen in their paintings, statues and architecture;
In vibrant color codes of their paintings as a special feature!
Where White was the symbol of purity, Black for death and night;
Green for vegetation or new life, Blue for water and the sky;
Red for life and victory, and Yellow like Gold as the flesh of the
Gods and also the Sun God ruling the sky!
Thanks to Jean-Francois Champollion's translation of the Rosetta
Stone, (1822)
We are able to decipher many mysteries of the Ancient Egyptian
with the cracking of the Hieroglyphic Code!
Larger than life statues with poise and austere harmony at the
Luxor Temple complex survive;
Symbolic of the individual's status, while creating zones of
strangeness for imagination to thrive!
('Matsaba'= Egyptian for 'bench', referred to bench shaped pyramids;
"Step Pyramids" = were like benches placed one on top of the other in
a tapering form going up vertically!)
The Old Kingdom Period covers a five hundred years span
of Ancient Egyptian History, (2686-2181BC)
Known as the 'Age of Pyramids', with Pharaohs from the
Third to the Sixth Dynasty!
"The World fear Time, but Time fears only the Pyramids",
- is an Ancient Egyptian Proverb;
Whose 'heterogeneous structure' made it earthquake
proof, making Time to reluctantly serve! #
Here we find formalized figures with long slender bodies,
idealized proportions and large staring eyes;
Where Kufu's Great Pyramid of Giza raises its mighty head
as the highest, on the west bank of the Nile;
And the mighty Sphinx guard the entrance to those ancient
royal tombs, though defaced, still survive!
These pyramids were like Pharaoh's getaways to eternity,
An insurance to an afterlife of peace and prosperity!
(# Pyramids with stone blocks of different sizes & shapes made them
Earthquake resistant; & use of pink granite in the inner chambers
made them erosion resistant against Time!)
The Middle Kingdom Period (2040-1650 BC) :
Following 150 years of civil disorder Theban ruler Mentuhotep
the Second, reunified Egypt and ruled up to Nubia, (Sudan)
And began the Classical Era when Block Statues appear,
indicating political stability;
When artisans worked with bronze and copper alloys, designing
exquisite jewelry!
Kings now preferred to be buried in secret tombs, Pyramids
having lost their appeal,
And work began on the west bank of the Nile, in the Valley of
(Inside those rock cut 'funerary temples' on the East bank of the
Nile, opposite Ancient Kingdom of Thebes ; Pharaohs from the
Early and Late New Kingdom Periods were buried, including
Early New Kingdom Period (1550 -1295 BC):
Between the Middle Kingdom and this Era, Art remained
static for almost a hundred years,
When the Hyksos from the Near East fought the weak Theban
In 1550 BC Theban Prince Ahmose reunited Egypt, and was
succeeded by able rulers, who ushered in the Golden Age!
Art works continued to maintain its basic traditional style,
With successive Kings from the 18th Dynasty consolidating
their kingdom's wealth and power all the while!
But Egypt witnessed a change with an innovative style in Art,
When Amenhotep IV in 1353 BC became King, initiating a
fresh start!
This king changed his name to 'Akhenaten', the spirit of Aten,
-- 'The disk of the Sun';
Abandoned the pantheons of Gods with Aten as the 'sole God',
and a religious revolution had begun!
His new capital city of Amarna, 200 miles north of Thebes,
Got decorated with a new kind of art work to make it complete!
The statues now appear more realistic displaying emotions,
With fluidity of movement, unlike those rigid earlier creations!
The artistic talent of this Amarna Period gets best exemplified,
In the exquisite bust of Nefertiti, Akhenaten's Great Royal Wife!
Regarded as 'icon of international beauty', a great archeological
find ! *
(Discovered by a German team of Archeologists in 1912 at Amarna! This 19 inch long limestone Nefertiti statue weighs around 20 kg, now housed in Berlin Museum; comparable only to the artistic Golden Mask of Tutankhamen!)
King Tutankhamen (1336-1327 BC):
Akhenaten's unpopular rule was short-lived, with those humiliated
Theban priests calling him the 'Heretic King'!
A nine year old boy Tutankhamen ('The living image of Amun'),
was next to succeed him!
King Tut restored the worship of Amun, in a back-lash against
Shifted the royal palace back to Thebes, with the religious center
at Karnak once again!
King Tut's short ten year's rule remained buried in 3000 year's
of Egyptian History,
Till Howard Carter found his richly laden intact tomb, in the
Valley of the Kings! (1922)
King Tut's priceless and exquisitely carved golden face mask,
reflected the exalted standard of art work;
Weighing ten kilos, inlaid with semi-precious stones, and eyes
made of obsidian and quarts!
With the King's early death, the 18th Dynasty of Pharaohs came
to an abrupt end,
And the 19th and 20th Dynasties of the Late Kingdom Period
The famous rock temple of Abu Simbel now got built, under the
warrior and builder Ramses II, one of Egypt's greatest Kings!
Pharaoh Ramses-II of the Late Kingdom Period :
Here I sweep across centuries of Egyptian History, to mention
King Ramses-II's contribution to our Art Story!
In Shelly's famous poem titled "Ozymandias of Egypt" he is
immortalized; (Greeks called Ramses-II "Ozymandias"!)
And as the Pharaoh associated with Moses in the movie "The
Ten Commandments", he is popularized!
Egyptian Art is intrinsically bound with its religion, pyramids,
hieroglyphs, and architecture;
With a concentrated focus on 'afterlife' as its special feature!
In 1270 BC young Ramses took over from Seti the First,
And his rule for a period of 66 long years did last!
As the third Pharaoh of the 19th Dynasty, he had ruled with a
firm hand;
Recovered lost territories from the Hittites and the Nubians,
- earlier captured Egyptian lands!
He enlarged the territories of Egypt ensuring prosperity and
Became renowned as the famous Warrior and Builder King
of Ancient Egyptian History!
Ramses-II had expanded most of the temples, as recorded in
the artistic motifs and hieroglyphic symbols;
Here a special mention must be made of the Temples of Luxor,
Karnak, and Abu Simbel !
Temples of Luxor and Karnak in Ancient Thebes:
Ancient Thebes was located on the eastern bank of the Nile,
where the modern City of Luxor stands;
Thebes was once the capital of the 11th and 18th Dynasties,
And the power and religious center of all Egyptian land!
Gets mentioned in the 9th Book of Homer's 'Iliad' where "heaps
of precious ingots gleam, the hundred-gated Thebes"!
Excavation work began in Thebes during the late 19th century;
And the gradual unearthing of the Temples of Luxor and
Karnak, added a new dimension to Egypt's Art Story!
It must be remembered always, that the Ancient Egyptians in
those early days,
Structured their temple architecture to the point of 'Sacred Art'!
With their knowledge of astronomy and geometry, they
aligned their temples so perfectly,
That the light of the rising sun fell on the temple's innermost
sanctuary! (Temple of Abu Simbel is a great example,)
Where the Egyptian priests, who were also the artists, healers,
mathematicians, astronomers and scribes;
In dimly lit incense-filled sanctuaries performed the sacred rites!
The temples symbolized the cross roads of the cosmos, where
the divine and the mortal met in perpetual harmony!
These divine scenes were integrated into the very fabric of the
Egyptian society through chants and rituals;
With cosmological symbols of magical hieroglyphs, which
priests alone could transcribe in those days!
(Thebes began to decline rapidly after Alexander the Great
established the port-city of Alexandria as Egypt's new Capital
around 332 BC !)
Luxor Temple built by Amenhotep-III, was dedicated to God
Amun, his wife Mut and son Khonsu, - the Theban Triad;
Tutankhamen and Ramses-II expanding the temple during the
New Kingdom Period!
Creator God Amun became assimilated with the Sun God Re;
Was worshipped in Thebes, and in the cult centers of Luxor and
Karnak, - as Amun-Re!
The walls and columns of these cult temples were decorated
with carved and painted relief,
Depicting the interaction with Gods, and military exploits of
Egyptian Pharaohs and Kings!
The sun temple of Amenhotep-III at Luxor has many columns
resembling papyrus bundles,
Symbolic of the primeval marsh from where Creation was
believed to have unfolded !
A Sphinx Alley excavated between Luxor and the Karnak
Temple was used during the Opet Festival,
And also by those Roman Conquerors who came later, and
camped in the temple!
('Opet' was celebrated during second lunar month to honor God Amun.)
Karnak received the lavish patronage from Ramses-I, Seti-I,
and Ramses-II of the 19th Dynasty;
Carved on the pillars, walls, pylons, obelisks, are records of
their success story!
Lying three kilometers north of Luxor, this Karnak Temple
dates back to the Middle Kingdom Period,
Witnessed 1300 years of construction till the Greco-Roman
With later conquerors leaving behind their signature marks,
- by adding to the Temple's History!
Luxor, as the largest temple of the ancient world dedicated to
Amun, which during the 19th Dynasty,
Witnessed monumental structures erected with battle scenes
depicted, - adding to Egyptian Art Story!
The greatest builder King Ramses-II, who had extended the
territories up to the Levant;
Had erected the front pylons of the Karnak Temple with his
massive statues and two obelisks;
And walls paintings depicting the warrior King overpowering
the Hittites!
(Levant included modern Israel, Palestine& Syria. After the Battle of Kadesh, peace was made, and Ramses-II married a Hittite princes! In the South , Ramse-II conquered Nubia, now Sudan!)
Famous Temples of Abu Simbel:
Here twin temples have been carved into the mountain sides,
To commemorate Ramses' victory at Kadesh, and intimidate
the Nubians he conquered on the southern side!
The second temple is dedicated to Neefertari his beloved Queen,
And her statues are of the same size as that of the King!
The main temple is dedicated to the sun gods Amun-Re and
Re-Horakhte; *
The temple with a 119 feet wide and 100 feet high outer façade,
Has four sixty feet high colossal statues of King Ramses seated!
At Abu Simbel both Art and Architecture blend uniquely, to
overawe the visitors who flock there annually!
The most remarkable feature being on the 22nd of October and
22nd February of every year,
The rays of the morning sun lights up the statues of Amun-Re,
defied Ramses-II, and Re-Horakhte in the inner sanctuary;
When symbolically the Pharaoh becomes a part of divinity!
The main temple has over a thousand different relief figures
and frescoes,
Appearing like an Egyptian Art Gallery, presenting a grand
artistic show!
( Re-Horakhte was Ra & Horus combined; depicted with a falcon head, with the red disk of the sun on top! The fourth statue in the inner sanctuary of the temple belonged to Ptah, the God of the Underworld, so the light of the sun never fell on him! Between 1964 and 1966 the UNESCO & the Egyptian
Govt. undertook a massive Engineering Project to relocate the Temples on a higher location & save it from the flood waters of the newly constructed Aswan Dam; with perfect alignment for the sun to shine on the inner sanctuary once a year, as in those ancient times!)
Short Summary of Later Egyptian Art:
Egypt later came under foreign rulers from Kush in Sudan;
Followed by the Assyrians, the Libyans, the Persians, the
Macedonians, and the Romans in turn!
Egyptian Art was later influenced by Hellenistic, Roman, and
eventually by Coptic Christian features;
But Egypt influenced the Greeks and the Romans, who adopted
the lotus motif with their column and pillar architecture!
And the Greek Pythagoras is also known to have studied
Geometry in Egypt, for twenty long years!
But genuine Egyptian Art still survives, enshrined in those
ancient monuments, pyramids, and temple complexes;
Which are protected as World Heritage Sites to this day!
I have introduced the true Story of Art commencing from
the Pre-historic days;
Religion, culture and history of a nation has influenced Art
from its nascent days!
Though I have spent some time with Egyptian Art, yet few
things have remained unsaid;
For those Egyptians never created Art simply for Art's sake!
Their Art was functional and symbolic, to honor of their Gods
and Kings;
To aid the deceased in an 'afterlife' and the soul's eternal
In my next part I plan to cover the Minoan Art of Crete;
And the Medieval Art with its assorted array of Celtic,
Byzantine, Islamic, Romanesque and the Gothic!
But the real canvas art and painting as we know today,
dates back to the Italian Renaissance;
Which becomes a separate Part by itself, as I trace Art's
multiple source!

Numb again.
Foggy head -doggy style.
Paleolithic dining to old records.
Turning, churning tables.
Through the blinds waves are crashing and the sun is shining. Glass blowing - pipe making - love creating.
Yellow bandanas and seashore marble.
Stars are aligning in their own perfect timing....
reminders of numbness thawing.
Caves of Altamira
on the northern coast of Spain
paleolithic drawings can be found
the old stone age of cavemen
in a cave high above the ground
in Mount Vispieres high above the plain
the name Altamira given for high views
that prehistoric man could paint
was such confusing news
it was assumed they were not bright
they had no artistic skills
then came that discovery
high up in those hills
bison horse deer and boar
painted plainly on the wall
18 thousand years ago
painted oils copied in the museum hall
even the Dan wrote a tune
to praise these artists skills
they were stars before Hollywood
high on those Spanish hills
Gomer Lepoet...
I saw the sun go out
Your smile turned upside down
And cold blue eyes
Brought chilly silence
To this ice age
Where one more dinosaur
Became extinct
I've been a dinosaur
In other times
When love came by
I had a mentality
With paleolithic limits
To understand
Female mystiques
1. Earth (Pangaea)
Pangaea heaved and shifted
beneath the fire-storm sky.
Colliding plates and spewing mountains
shook, roared and thundered
under the brutal chaos
of torrential cataclysms.
In time she yielded her ire
to millennia of pacific rains -
her severed crust
set adrift across the oceans
like gigantic earthen rafts.
Jungles sprang up and terrible lizards
came, grazed and left their bones.
Forests, grains and multifarious beasts
grew and perished in accord
with their past and future destinies.
So here we are - earthbound,
tossed from our mothers' wombs -
fated to live and breed
by the grace of miracles
far beyond our ken.
Beloved mother Gaia,
from whose dust we are raised,
nurture and sustain us
and sing us to our mortal sleep.
2. Air
Air - earth's miracle brew of
oxygen, nitrogen and all the rest
meted out in perfect harmony.
Air - silent and still on a moonlit night -
driver of sheeted rain on window panes -
and winds that shake the trembling aspens.
Air - author of land and ocean squalls -
bringer of that ominous pallor
that presages a tornado's furor
Air - invisible aerial highway
for majestic eagles and turbo-jets -
medium of rhetoric and symphonies.
Air – window to the cosmos
and our fragile life–giving broth -
unwitting conveyer of toxic alchemy.
Keep watch my sisters and brothers:
the air we breathe is what we make it
or rather what we let it be.
3. Water
Water like a capricious deity
wanders through time and topography -
cherished and cursed for
what it gives and what it takes away.
Gentle rains and strident gales
sculpt rivers and streams
through forests and plains
bound for union with the open sea.
Diurnal tides ebb and wane
at the whim of the charismatic moon.
Ice mountains advance and retreat;
rock-strewns moraines left in their wake.
Turbulent currents
soar over jagged cataracts,
spraying pastel prisms
across the misted valleys.
Beneath our all too fragile skins,
secret sanguine rivers navigate
our veins and arteries
bathing organs, limbs and sensors
with curative balm and sustenance.
Wellspring of all elements,
fill our daily ladles
and grant us the will and empathy
to bequeath the same to our progeny.
4. Fire
Two hundred million years ago
our Paleolithic cousins
seized branches from a burning forest
and stepped into a bold new world.
By the glow of fire-lit caves,
and the scent of searing venison,
they gathered wits and tools
to craft shelters and weaponry.
Their children's children would design
forges and furnaces, factories
and build engines that run on fire.
But their anxious siblings in despair
snatched lightning from the sky
and twisted by fits of anger pride
made also muskets, missiles, bombs
and nuclear Armageddons.
Loki, god of nobler flames
open our blood-stained eyes
and show us the means
to stay our arson lust and
abide by the light of reason.
Revised and integrated version, December, 2015
Past altered states tests postive and subtle
Asshole So and so's teeter Paleolithic après time puddles
And submit terrible philosphies
Ashy stubble ticks politics
and sacrafice to peer approval sacralige
Test probably appears stable
Top patriarch's able suddenly to
Pop above submerged tables possibly
After, something tests patience awkwardly
Stumps tarot practioners and sex testers poor application sterily
Topology plain, astrology scorpio
Torpedo power aptly strikes to pedal antlers sour
Take particular appointments
Stop testing please apply sorted
Terror power and sexless torn pigs
afterhours pen and store tips, plow.
Alter simians testosterone, pow!
As scientists type papers about sexing tasteless past alligator snouts
testing partly after science takes party alliance south to pawn army
subtle tipped passion. artsy.
Start these.
pick atoms smarmy
Tally past all sentences take pride
As stencils test pestilence. And sigh.
The previous alterations simply tried.
And didn't work, hence the present
Path lit incandescent.
I'm looking towards the east waiting for positivity to peak
You're turned backwards nostalgic for something that'll never come repeat.
I wear Inuit clothing.
Wrapped in Paleolithic reindeer
I hunt mammoths and lions:
ivory a source to make art
and males with no manes to warm their heads.
I'm huntress, nothing more.
Men howl to paint me in caves
to represent the woman I am:
a bull for my head
and the edge of the rock my womanhood.
I'd rather kill with men.
I have humanly adventures with them
rather than pick berries:
I'm hungry not for fruit
but for bloody creatures to gain power.
A man gave me a flute.
It had three holes to make music
with my mouth and fingers, an instrument:
So I blew hard to call him
our spiritual connection one, him and I.
I'm a huntress, nothing more.
Should a primitive tribe be civilized?
Are we civilized or savage?
Leave them the aborigines to their home
in peace
their abode in the depth of forest.
But where's their abode?
we cut the jungle and made road
where would their babies be born?
in the smoke of engines blaring of horns
so hard for them to birth
on the dwindling patch of their earth
our Paleolithic ancestors' living fossils
who with iron will
fought bullets with bows and arrows
now falling by the bullies of progress
begging for last living space.
Leave them the way they lived so long
unspoiled with their own education and culture
let them retain their own way of life
and not make them civilized the way we are.
In the narrowest of lanes
I found the sweet shop.
Behind dusty crumbling glasses
dozed the old keeper
smelling of sugar, milk and sweat
over fossils of Paleolithic sweets
on a time machine from the century
he never was
to a millennium he doesn't bother about
clinging onto clay by pottery
not succumbing to synthetic
counting not on android
but accounting on parchment
with the art of finger's arithmetic
most intricately scribbled with pencil
announcing progress is a trouble
not designed for the simple
and contentment has no more nitty-gritty
than price and quantity.
Over his head
spiders worked and reworked
from the ceiling to the glass
as have been doing
since Carboniferous.
Staring off into the distance of a dirty carpet ridden with living trails of ants, a crawling black river of desolate hunger, counting days of visions, wandering naked in the lake treading water, kissing, spitting out lips and liquid
shifted in dreams
memories poke like a cactus needle open to a room of steam heat and opium
flooding with words that digest imagination and burn eyelids, a cigarette held too close to a crowning flame
incinerating eyelashes and clattering TNT onto the serene image of our drunken antics while the rest of the world is howling for us to see ourselves for the raving lunatics we are, their tired look of exasperation an exhausted mother left alone to raise a hopeless child, wicked only for his ignorance
The last speakers of the paleolithic age journey forth from the depths of the amazonian jungle to heal our souls nailed to the cross as drug dealers because ingested plants grow in the ground
I saw the most beautiful soul weep in fear against a diner booth at midnight
amid plates of burgers, fries and green beans laid on the lineoleum table with no signs of starvation or danger
yet the signs of the apocalypse resonate in all psyches because reptilian brains would rather die than change, conform than bring forth the messianic transformation of our own radical self acceptance as God
and we shun those who are insane on the streets
dirty outcasts, poor filth and ugliness
human animals unfit for this society of plastic and image, a mirage over substance
I cross the street rather than look the beggar in the eye because he stinks of desperation, and tell him no no no, I'm sorry I'm sorry I'm sorry, I can't share with you all
The holy yell
flooding the empty headed street
we abandoned our mother and forsaken our selves to flickering images of lust and prestige, cock and balls, snatch and ass, thick wads
idolizing our own form,
the sirens of the modern age, the golden calves danced around in supermarket check out lines,
capturing us on the jagged cliffs of inattention, glories husked and barren, cultivate likes and followers sweet nicotine in the bloodstream, social media mogul reigning over a grand bazaar of ghosts in a room, talking to other ghosts in rooms of faraway lands, ignoring the living flesh in front of their twitchy eyes, cast down for a screen, forgetting themselves for a profile, a small picture in a corner, an Ignominious massacre of life cast through a digital lens, concerts meant for full expression of a cathartic moment of bodily movement, lost to a sea of hand held recording devices to remember how you didn't feel at that moment with other people milling about as cattle who would rather document and never watch again then dance and live and be a part of the happening, look, Rip Van Winkles throwing pins with revolutionary prussian ghosts in a sleepy Catskill hollow, zombies behind wheels typing to kill, these words will not save you, they will not fill the siphon hole,
I am with you in this burning sodium night on my back in the grass of a night with no darkness
I am with you where the army of madness will overthrow the living dead and shake their working class dreams to the core with the sudden eternal war of nothingness and contemplation and silence screaming out for someone to save us
Everything is HOLY!
Throw open the church doors
think nothing of paying for poison, (as advertised)
but refuse to confront your self possessed greed because the man holding the cup is tired and desperate and I am tired and desperate
A truck hauls a horse
broken wilderness, cleaved concrete, cracked spines wretched scars,
killing anything that isn't hard, impermanent and futile, the land reclaims
but no land to ride, only the black road with its machines spewing the smokey remains of dead ancient animals
nature perverted, mobility imprisoned inside a metal box to be driven when it can run
so apt
for the potential inside coffins of daily lives
talking of dreams gutless to pursue
settling instead for the easy cruise of routine
fucking our own hands
We all matter
but this world doesn't work without slaves
so take pride in your nine to five
get some pussy with that job title
and two sentence description
of how you can make the dreams come true, in the suburbs with three kids a couch and security from whatever danger lurks outside of us on TV
our own kind
murderous and malicious
homicidal tribalists
merrymaking nihilists
The fear The Fear
the light the light
I grab her hand and stare into dark eyes deadlocked on the momentary plane, a revealed saint testifying to God's truth Mary Maria, she tells me there is something beautiful outside this current mode of existence, but she's only had a fleeting glimpse
Three parts treasure hunter
to two parts scientist,
the archaeologist
with picks and brushes
sifts through shards and ruins,
echoes of ancestral time,
burning for answers:
How on earth did we manage
to carve out shelters from the crust
tilting the scales
of survival in our favor?
A cliff house here, a cathedral there
a village by the river
chronicling our escape from
the shadows of pre-recorded time.
We wonder where they all went
and why they vanished, but the real question
that haunts our paleolithic selves,
is who are we and where are we going?

Its shares promptly headed the blue-chip risers with a 14 3/4p gain to 482p, a 3% increase on a day when the wider market was weak.
There were plenty of poor performers to hold back the benchmark index. Fears of costly alleged racial discrimination cases in the US left financial information and media group Reuters nursing a 2 1/2p slide at 249p. The class action is likely to be lengthy and comes just when the group looked as if it was on the recovery trail, having climbed from 95 1/2p in four months.
A downgrade for Anglo-Australian mining giant Rio Tinto from Deutsche Bank failed to deter investors as it rose 4p to 1294p. Deutsche has lowered its price target to 1100p from 1250p.
Disappointing US employment figures helped deepen the Footsie's decline, down 58.6 points to 4098.4.
Second-liners were in demand. Rumours that the management buyout at discount women's fashion group New Look may be closer than expected sent it to the top of the FTSE 250 risers, with a 13% gain of 36 1/2p to 315p. Founder and 28% stakeholder Tom Singh has indicated he is considering selling and some 3.22m shares changed hands.
Celltech has received US Food and Drug Administration approval for its Zavesca treatment for patients with Gaucher disease, which is mostly confined to Jews of Ashkenazi descent. The shares rose 8 3/4p to 352p.
Advertising giant WPP, now saddled with Cordiant Communications and its £256m of debt, fell 8 1/2p to 543 1/2p on the first day of dealings after completion of the takeover.
In the midst of its battle for Swiss-owned Centerpulse with US company Zimmer, Smith & Nephew had a welcome boost from Deutsche, which says the shares are worth 410p, lifting them 3p to 374p.
Griffin Mining placed 10.4m new shares at 12p with institutions to raise £1.25m to fund further development of its gold/zinc project in China. It retreated 1p to 14p.
Builders' merchant Travis Perkins rose 29 1/2p to 1252p after detailing plans to acquire smaller rival Jayhard for £26.5m, in line with its ongoing strategy of snapping up bolt-on acquisitions.

I have had a lot of moms tell me that they want more time in their day. We can't get more time, but we can practice better time management. Sometimes with all that we do...cleaning the house, taking care of the kids, tending to our husbands that time just gets away from us. There are some things that you can do and have helped me tremendously!
First things first!
1. Make a list of the goals you want for your house. I have discovered that a majority of people do not set goals. We just react to things in life as they come along. However, to create change we must do something different. Write down the goals that you want for your home (including the people in it.). If you don't have a journal, now may be the time to get one!
2. Make a list of tasks that align with those goals. What do you need to do to get those goals accomplished? Write everything down.
3. Create a schedule. Decide when each task needs to be done and how long it will take.
4. Write it down. Studies show that most things are more likely to get done when we write them down. I love making a list and crossing off things as I accomplish them. This may work for you too!
5. Put it in your phone. You can also put these things in your phone since we have our phones with us so often. Another great visual reminder. The digital version of writing things down.
6. Set timers. You can use the timer app on your phone or download timer apps suited to your needs by searching in your app store. When your timer goes off, stop or set it for another time period. I get off track sometimes because I focus on one thing too long and then I am exhausted afterwards. But I can't stop because it's mom life right? lol
It is always a work in progress but some progress is better that none!
What do you do to manage your time better at home? Share below!
~Be beautiful, inspired, and blessed!

I'm very pleased to have been selected for another cover and editorial for Our Wedding magazine. This is my second time working with them. Spending the day shooting with an amazing team is about as good as it gets.
Stormy Weather Shoot
I've always enjoyed shooting pictures of the sky when it has lots of cloud textures and shapes. It's always been a goal of mine to make portraits with clouds as the background. It took me a while to work through to the style that I have now. In looking back, I may have over thought how to accomplish my goal
Good Day Sacramento Visit
I was honored to be part of a segment on Good Day Sacramento on December 23, 2016 featuring getting better results from your iPhone. It took me a day to prepare for the show with some help from Action Camera in Roseville and to line up a model to use for some examples.
Friday Night Lights
Another football season has come and gone. My youngest, Ryan (#32) is a sophomore and on the JV team, who won the league with a 10 and 0 record. My oldest son, Ethan (#40) is a senior on Varsity. Varsity was 3 and 7, which made for a tough season.
In studio with Dwight
I recently had male model Dwight in studio for a photoshoot. We took a break during our shoot to have a little conversation.
20minute Portrait
I was recently assignedto photograph multiple law firms for a local magazine.
Photographing law firms is something I've done the past few years for this magazine and I really enjoy it. A majority of them are on location, but I do shoot a few at my studio. It always a challenge to get busy people scheduled to photograph. One of the attorneys was in between appointments and called to see if I was available. I happened to have about an hour before my next shoot, so his timing worked out perfectly. By the time my lighting was set up and he arrived, I had about 20 minutes to make some images. Over the years I have worked really hard to get the images that I need, quickly and efficiently. It's taken much practice and is something I'm still working on.
Here are a few tips I have picked up over time.
The Light at Preston Castle
For the past few years, one of my favorite side projects is my involvement with the Preston Castle in Ione, CA. It was correctional institute for minors.
The Preston School of Industry was built in 1890 in the Romanesque Revival style. Red sandstone bricks quarried six miles from Ione and made at San Quentin and Folsom prisons make up the castle's distinct exterior. The Preston School of Industry remained open until 1960 when new facilities for the school were completed. The building remained vacant and fading into disrepair until September 10, 2001.

Deze eigenschap, die is beoordeeld 5 sterren door Northern Ireland Tourist Board is ideaal gelegen in een rustige weg met ruime off-road auto parkeren. Aan de achterzijde is een aangenaam goed onderhouden tuin met zitplaatsen voor uw al fresco 's avonds.
De begane grond bestaat uit een hal met beneden garderobe, ruime woonkamer met ruime zitplaatsen, tv en uitzicht op de voorzijde van het pand.
Open goed uitgeruste keuken met een eigen eethoek en een zithoek ook met TV, aparte
This property is beautifully appointed and close to all of the wonders of Northern Ireland. Easy access to Belfast, Giants Causeway, Derry, Donegal, Downhill Strand and all of the other amazing sites along the extraordinary northern coast. Gerard, the owner, was very kind and understanding of our needs. He responds quickly to messages and was attentive throughout our stay. I would highly recommend this property!
We were very happy with this location for our family. We came from all over the globe to surprise our sister in Coleraine. This house was able to accommodate everyone comfortably, was very well appointed and was a perfect base of operations for our many day trips. The house was exactly as advertised and check in was effortless.
There were restaurants and shops within a very short distance, we were able to find anything that we needed very quickly.
I would definitely recommend this property to anyone that would be visiting the Portrush area.
We loved our stay in this beautiful bright modern home. There was plenty of room for our large group of eight. It is in a very nice neighborhood and within walking distance to the beach. It was the perfect location for being centrally located to all the things we wanted to see and do. All of our relatives that stopped by to visit us loved the home too. Gail was so nice and kind and very helpful. She ended up knowing my cousin who had stopped by one day.. The owner Gerard was also so very nice. Anytime I had a question he responded right away. Always very helpful with all the information. We had a wonderful trip and loved staying all together in this lovely home. Thank you Gerard!
Perfect location for NW200 and exploring NW Ireland. Property was extremely well appointed with all usual amenities including Wifi (would do well to include WiFi in the facilities list). Especially good was the large kitchen / dining / sitting area; great for large groups.
Could not really fault it and definitely recommend it.
Owner was extremely helpful and responsive.
Our family of four was very fortunate to rent this lovely home for 10 days. It was beautifully decorated and quite spacious. We felt very comfortable in our holiday home. As we were in town for the Milk Cup, we couldn't have picked a better location. Portrush and Portstewart are quaint coastal towns with stunning views, plenty of shopping and great restaurants. The Ramore group of restaurants offer a great selection of dishes. In Portstewart, Harry's Shack is a must - book ahead.
The views along the Causeway Coastal route were breath-taking...the Giant's Causeway, Dunluce Castle, Carrick-a-rede rope bridge and the Dark Hedges. Gerard was very helpful and quick to reply to any questions. As mentioned by others, wifi would have been convenient, especially when trying to communicate with others via email or DM. There are plenty of places in town that offer free wifi.
The neighbors we met were quite lovely - very friendly and welcoming. A special hello to Gail and her family :) We would highly recommend this rental home. A++
Having never been to this part of the world before this was a new adventure for us. We did not expect great weather and in that respect we were not disappointed !! We found lots to do, this coast is beautiful and it was well worth the trip. The house was lovely, better than the photos's. Wi-fi would be nice but on saying that it was good to spend wild evenings in the cosy kitchen playing Jenga and Balderdash and just generally chilling out. The house is thoughtful and reflects the owners tastes, everything was of a very high standard and quality and makes you feel you are in a home not a holiday home; it was spotless and is a credit to the owners (this comes from a very picky person - trust me). Gerrard gave us lots of ideas on what to see in the area and responded well whenever I needed information. We ate at the Causeway Hotel which was OK but the tapas bar call Ocho in Portrush was superb.Would recommend.
Ons huis is ideaal gelegen voor een bezoek aan de kust van Antrim en het verkennen van de Causeway kustroute. Gelegen in de badplaats Portrush waarin een aantal aantrekkelijke kustplaatsen en dorpen als zijn buren, waaronder Portstewart die oorspronkelijk was een klein vissersdorp, maar nu is de parel van de Causeway kust met zijn lange halvemaanvormige zee is er ook Castlerock heeft, Portballintrae, Ballycastle, Glens van Antrim de verbazingwekkende Giants Causeway, Dunluce Castle en de Carrick-a-Rede touwbrug als je dapper genoeg bent.
Op loopafstand van het huis vindt u supermarkten en andere winkels te vinden,
Er is een uitstekende busverbinding naar de stad en tussen Coleraine, Portrush en Portstewart.
