In the Spirit
Breckenridge Ski Resort has been celebrating its fiftieth-anniversary season this year, and the town's annual Ullr Fest -- which pays tribute to the Norse god Ullr, frequently depicted in ancient artwork as a skier -- dates back almost as far.
"Ullr Fest is always one of the highlights of the year in Breckenridge, and the locals and visitors always get pretty fired up for it," says Breckenridge spokeswoman Rachel Zerowin. "This year is the 49th annual festival, and the theme is '49 and feeling fine.'"
The celebrations begin at 1 p.m. today with the $5 Ullr Skating Party at Stephen C. West Ice Arena. On Monday, head to Main Street Station, 505 South Main Street, for food and drinks at Ullr's Sports Grill before catching the 5:30 p.m. coronation of the Ullr king and queen, then get fired up at the big bonfire celebration. On Tuesday, throw down in the Ullympics, a series of winter sports events starting at 6 p.m. at the Maggie Pond Restaurant (also at Main Street Station), and meet the winter lover of your dreams in the Ullr Dating Game on Wednesday at 8 p.m. at Cecilia's, 520 South Main Street.
The main event is on Thursday at 4:30 p.m., when everyone in Breckenridge gets their horns on for the annual Ullr Fest Parade, starting at the intersection of Main Street and Wellington Street. Ullr Fest continues through January 14; visit www.gobreck.com for a full schedule of activities, as well as lodging deals and information.

Thank you for reviewing this recipe.
Gooey Butterfinger Cake
I made this but I used a pound cake instead of twinkies. I cubed the pound cake into pieces and used a trifle bowl. I also did a layer of vanilla pudding and a layer of chocolate pudding. It was to die for!

Frederick County Slaying "Five-Headed Monster" form of Government
FREDERICK, MD - The form of government in Frederick County, Maryland will be changing.
County voters overwhelmingly approved moving from a commissioner form, with five members of equal power, to a charter form, with a county executive and a seven-member county council.
"Frederick County, in my opinion, was at a crossroads," says Republican Blaine Young, president of the Frederick County Board of Commissioners. "Charter, in my opinion, is more transparent in terms of laying out the vision of who will be in charge of the executive functions of the county."
Five county council members will come from districts and two will be at large.The county executive will receive $95,000 a year, while county council members will get $22,500 a year.
"The county commissioner form of government is a very, very frustrating form of government for me," Young said. "I've called it a five-headed monster, and the people of Frederick County slayed the five-headed monster and will transition to charter with a county executive."
62 percent of people voted for charter government. The change won't go into effect until the next election. The new county executive and county council will take office in December 2014.
"It's time," Young said. "Frederick County is 660 square miles, the largest land mass in the State of Maryland, with 240,000 residents, and the 8th largest county in the State of Maryland. First through 7th all have charter. Frederick is ready, and the voters felt it was time."
Young says he's not interested in becoming county executive.
Several Frederick County legislators have spoken out against charter government, include Delegate Michael Hough (R). He believes it could leader to a bigger government and less oversight.

I wonder if it's ok to have a 110/80 x18 rear and a 90/90x18 front tyres, taking in account that I fitted a T250 swing arm as we discussed in another post (shorter and slightly narrower than te stock T 500 one).
I'm afraid a 130/80x18 could be too close to the swingarmo (3 mm per part maybe).
Thank again for all the useful suggestion!

1999 built tj
Thanks to Nic for showing me there is a website for Michigan off-roaders. I copied the post from Pirate, the link:
I moved from Arizona to Boyne City, Michigan and thought I would be able to use the jeep here, but its just too much jeep for the very little rocks here. (I don't do MUD) I would like to mention that I drove this jeep as a daily driver for 6 months and it handles and drives better than a stock jeep. Will go 70mph down the highway. My girlfriend even drives it with no complaints. I have over 40k in receipts not including the jeep its self.
Chassis: Rubicon Express long arm lift kit with 4.5" and 5.5" springs for the rear with 5 way clicker Rancho shocks. Custom Tri-angulated 4 link rear. (NO REAR TRAC BAR) Poly Performance hoop coil over conversion for the front with external res. King Coil overs.
Axles: Dynatrac trail 60's front and rear both with 35 spline 4.88, ARB's, and Alloy shafts. The rear is semi-float. They both have dynatrac diff covers. CO2 runs the lockers and has stainless steel airlines
Motor: 4.0L that has an aluminum head, the original motor was taken out for a V-8 swap but former owner decided not to do it so he had Five Star engines out of Phoenix, AZ build this motor. The engine has less than 5,000 miles on it, and the entire jeep has just less than 40,000 miles. (Have receipts of engine build)
Transmission: First ever AW4 swap done to a TJ. Stu Olson of www.stu-offroad.com did the swap and you can check it out on his website if interested.
Transfer case: Atlas 5.0 with the upgraded 32 spline input and output shafts.
Drive shafts: Tom Woods front and rear drive shafts.
Steering: PSC hydro assist steering with solid aluminum cross over steering setup
Sway bar: Teraflex quick lock disconnects, very easy and locks its self back in.
Armor: Steering box skid, engine skid, Kilby gas tank skid, poison spyder rear quarter 3/16" with led lights, poison spyder rocker guards, poison spyder front fenders and (not pictured is custom tube rear fenders. Front and rear bumpers are toys by troy.
Recovery: 9.5ti winch with synthetic line, 48" high lift, warn recovery kit (tree saver, strap, snatch block, gloves)
Storage: Rear seat was taken out and large lock box was put in its place for tools, recovery gear, and lunch
Interior: Mastercraft Baja seats with Mastercraft 5pt harnesses, bolt on cage by Toys by Troy that ties into floor. Carpet still sits in the jeep and is in great shape. Stock radio and cassette, with a sound bar. A/C, cruise all work.
Tires: 2 sets of 5... On jeep now is 37/12.50/15 Iroks radials 4 @ 95% 1@100% Goodyear MTR's also 37/12.50/15 with discount tire warranty. 2@98% 2@80% and 1@50%. Only one sets of wheels and they are Mickey Thompson classic II's 15x8"
Extra's: Soft top (has some holes) bikini top, full hard doors, 2 piece soft doors, uni chip programmer, and spare parts. 2500lb Warn ATV front suck down winch.
The Bad: Nothing is really bad, but wants to mention the windshield frame has a dent in it and the windshield is cracked. The jeep needs a paint job, the front fenders are black and the new not pictured rear tubes fenders are also black. That really isnt all bad just wanted to mention it.
I am willing to meet half way with the jeep for the cost of fuel. This jeep is 100% perfect mechanically. Needs nothing to go out and be one of the top out on the trail. I have wheeled mostly with buggies (AZ) and everyone thinks its a mostly stock jeep and that its going to hold the group up, but most of the time I was waiting for others.
Price: $16,500 obo

Spend any time reading the news, driving the interstates, or peering into the recesses of your own heart, and it's clear that people are messed up.After hearing dusty tales of "a bunch of lowlife thieves and cowards and murderers," a young man asks an old timer if people were meaner in the past than the present.

I bought a nice culotte steak today. I'm going to fry it in my new stainless steel pan and try to make some fond... but I guess my main question is: do I cook it like I would a rib eye steak (which I usually make)? Or since the cut is a little tougher, is there some special preparation?

Blind folks have 2a rights also but I wonder how many blind folks have a permit to carry?
In Arkansas, your permit is tied to your drivers license so a blind person in AR can not legally get a permit. So I wonder in what states would it be possible for them to get a permit.

"Brains before Bullets"
Call this how you will, but I think that part of defensive carry is "identifying your target and what is beyond". That is one of the basic and essential firearm rules. A blind person cannot perform this essential duty, and thus should not be carrying a gun.
My step-dad is blind and has an LTCF. He is realistic about his ability to use a fiream for protection. His main intent is to hand it to someone that would be able to employ it in a public environment.
I would not volunteer to take him on in a dark place though. He has the ability to hit what he hears very well. He enjoys shooting, playing pool and driving when he gets the chance. Hates movies with sub-titles! Go figure.
Are you talking "Blind" or "Legally Blind"? They are two different things.
I do not know anybody who is "Legally Blind" with a permit, but I do know "Legally Blind" people who shoot at the range, and they do quite well. I also know a couple of "Legally Blind" people, my. mother is one, who still have their drivers license. No, she does not drive any more, but she still has her license and she can see well enough that she could still drive if she had to.
Others do it when waking from a sound sleep and notice a shadow climbing through the kitchen window...one does not need complete identification of the target to know when it's time to 'fish or cut bait'...

Let me put it to you this way. If you were in a situation where you became disabled and could not continue fighting, would you hand over your pistol to someone you knew or would you curl up and die? I know what I'd do and I'll worry about the courts later. Being arrested or sued is going to be the last thing on my mind at that moment. I'd even hand it to a stranger in a worst case scenario. At least they'd have a chance at saving some butts, maybe my own.
In NM you have to pass a proficiency test. The law doesn't say you have to be able to see the target, only that you have to hit it with adequate accuracy.
Disabled people are often seen as easy targets by bad guys. I see no problem with giving them the ability to defend themselves.
Often, people equate a physical disability with some sort of lack of intelligence or good judgment. This is NOT the case. They are able to understand the world around them just as you or I, the consequences of their actions, any limits their disability might place, and make good decisions.
Here in Washington State, I don't know any blind CPL people, but I see nothing in the laws or rules to stop it (shall issue!). They could open carry without permit as well.
I have a friend who is legally blind and has his permit to carry. While he may not be able to identify BG's from a distance, he seems to do well enough up close shooting and ID'ing potential threats.
Each individual needs to have the option to assess and choose what they can or cannot do with their circumstances.
"In matters of style, swim with the current; in matters of principle, stand like a rock." Thomas Jefferson

I've coached two blind wrestlers, I'd trust both of them to make the proper nose to nose decision to defend themselves.

A Pagan View on Exorcism
November 13, 2010 by 2 Comments
This weekend, a group of American Catholic leaders are meeting in Baltimore to discuss how "to prepare more priests and bishops to respond to the demand" for more exorcisms. The article in the New York Times makes it clear that the Catholic church is responding to a demand from the laity, and that they carefully screen people to separate those needing psychological care from those who are truly possessed. I have many issues with the theology and practices of the Roman Catholic Church, but I'm inclined to take them at their word here.
Jason Pitzl-Waters at The Wild Hunt has this piece on the conference and what it means for Pagans. He expresses some concern that an increase in talk about Satan may lead to yet more confusion of Paganism with Satanism and trouble for all of us. That's not an unreasonable concern.
What I find most interesting are the comments from Pagans, many of whom take a very skeptical, materialist view of the matter. It seems odd that people who regularly call to the Spirits of the Elements and Directions, who pour offerings to Nature Spirits, who worship every god and goddess known to humanity suddenly turn into Humanists when the subject of Christian entities is brought up.
I understand much of what has been called "demon possession" is mental illness and should be treated as such. Yet there are cases in many cultures and traditions that are better explained by malevolent entities than by mental illness. There are instances where exorcisms do work (and plenty where they don't, but that doesn't mean they're all bogus).
If there are spirits in the world (nature spirits, spirits of the dead, gods and demigods), it is naïve to assume they are all advanced beings who wish us well. Some humans are pretty nasty people – if their spirits hang around our world, it's reasonable to assume that at least some of them would enjoy harassing the living. The tales of our ancestors speak of gods and goddesses who harm humans (the Greek Furies come to mind). And what of the thought-forms we create (intentionally or not) when we are angry, jealous, or spiteful?
I have not experienced possession first-hand, either as a victim or as an exorcist. But I have done house cleansings, for myself and for others. In one there was a dark energy (I won't call it an entity, but it might have been) so strong even I could locate it. Another felt "dirty," as though the residue of stress and arguments had built up over the years and needed to be cleaned out. The cleansings all helped – the atmosphere of the houses became brighter, cheerier, and less fearful.
I once discussed exorcisms with a minister in the Church of Religious Science. She had done a few exorcisms, which she described as intensive versions of the "prayer treatments" practiced in Religious Science. But the one she talked about most was the exorcism she couldn't do. A young woman who was a recent immigrant from Mexico came to see her about a spirit that was troubling her. A Catholic priest had tried and failed to get rid of the spirit. The Religious Science minister couldn't either. But she put the woman in touch with a traditional healer in Los Angeles (the minister called the healer a brujah – I don't know if that's a correct use of the term or not) who successfully performed the exorcism.
When I told this story to a friend who had just completed a degree in anthropology, she said "the trick was to find a shaman from the right tribe." It makes sense that different cultures would respond to different exorcism techniques, but I didn't think to ask whether it mattered to the malevolent spirit or to the victim. Or to both.
I think we are wise to be skeptical when someone claims "the devil made me do it." Mental illness is far too common in our world, and we need to be quick to recognize it and treat it with appropriate therapies and when absolutely necessary, with medication. But there are times when a person or a place is suffering from what is best understood as malevolent entities and energies. I wish the Catholics good luck in helping their tribe deal with this problem. We Pagans need to be ready to help our tribes as well.

Landlord tenant law concerns landlord and tenants' rights and responsibilities. Because the apartment you rent is your own personal space, the law places many limits on landlords' activities. For example, if a landlord tries to make you move without giving you enough notice, or ignores a rat infestation in your apartment, a landlord / tenant lawyer knows what options you have as a tenant. On the other hand, a landlord / tenant lawyer also helps landlords who have tenants breaking rules, such as moving out three months early or refusing to pay rent. Tenant eviction laws are very specific, with different rules in each city. If you are being evicted or if you have a tenant you want to evict, you may benefit from the services of a landlord / tenant lawyer.

Tennis-Gentle giant Cilic profits from new aggressive streak
LONDON, June 24 "Mr Nice Guy" Marin Cilic believes a more aggressive attitude on court can propel him towards a title push at Wimbledon.
(Adds details, quotes)
By Pritha Sarkar
PARIS, June 5 Novak Djokovic kept calm, cool and collected to subdue the challenge of 35-year-old Tommy Haas with a 6-3 7-6(5) 7-5 win in the quarter-finals of the French Open on Wednesday.
If the world number one still had nightmares about his mauling by Haas just over two months ago in Miami, he hid those fears well to set up a semi-final blockbuster with seven-times champion Rafa Nadal.
"Playing Rafa at Roland Garros is the biggest challenge on clay. I am ready to play five sets," Djokovic said as he chases the one grand slam trophy missing from his collection.
Haas was one of four 30-somethings to reach the men's quarter-finals but youth won out as only David Ferrer, who beat fellow 31-year-old Tommy Robredo on Tuesday, made it past the last-eight stage.
Just how much difference younger legs make was in evidence on a sun-drenched Suzanne Lenglen Court as Djokovic took full advantage of the nine-year age gap to come out on top in almost every department.
He had more aces (11-4), more points on first serve (82 percent-65 percent), more points on second serve (78 percent-42 percent), more winners (46-19) and more points won (116-84).
Cries of "Tomeeeeeeeeeeeee, Tomeeeeeeeeeeeee, Tomeeeeeeeeeeeee" rang around the court but it failed to lift the fortunes of the fan favourite.
After Djokovic outplayed the German warrior in the first set, Haas went toe-to-toe with the Serbian in the second. Three times the 12th seed went ahead with a mini-break in the tiebreak but each time Djokovic fought back.
When Djokovic brought up set point by finishing off a 24-shot rally with a breathtaking crosscourt backhand winner, the damage was done and there was no way back into the set for Haas who was looking to become the oldest men's semi-finalist in Paris since 1968.
That left Haas slapping his chest in frustration, toying with the prospect of slamming his racket into the ground and hurling abuse at himself in German.
He desperately wanted to win the match as it would have given him a 100th grand slam match victory but, watched on by Titanic actor Leonardo DiCaprio, Djokovic sunk the German's hopes in little over two hours.
Haas enjoyed one final hurrah in the third set, breaking the top seed when he was serving for the match at 5-4 but it was soon evident he was running on empty as he lost the next two games and the match when Djokovic whacked a backhand winner into the corner of the court.
"Today's opponent is tough," Djokovic said. "He has a precise serve, has an aggressive game, has variety in his shots, can play really well on defence, offence, and come to the net.
"So, yeah, it was a good performance for me in general. On the important points I came up with some good shots." (Reporting by Pritha Sarkar, editing by Alison Wildey)

Greenville's Downtown Development Authority aims to enhance downtown
GREENVILLE — The Greenville Downtown Development Authority (DDA) brainstormed ideas to not only develop the downtown, but get more people to the downtown area.
During Tuesday's meeting, DDA members spent a majority of their time stating their opinions on bettering the downtown area.
One thing they agreed on and want to make sure happens is developing an area for the community to be able to gather for events.
"In my opinion, we should start small and add to it," said Secretary Deb Huch, owner of Huch's Fine Jewelry.
Originally suggested at the November meeting, members thought it would be a good idea to start with moving the farmers market from Veterans Park back to the downtown area.
Huch suggested during Tuesday's meeting to start with the farmers market by having it be in an area that allows for expansion in the future.
Linda Huckleberry, owner of Huckleberry's Restaurant, agreed and said the DDA should look at options the city has available for a place to have events, like the farmers market.
She noted there is a vacant lot for sale at the corner of M-57 and M-91 along with vacant buildings through the downtown that could be transformed into a usable space for such events.
"It's a lovely idea bringing the farmers market back downtown," said Gae Wolfe, co-executive director for the Greenville Area Chamber of Commerce. "It's the perfect time for it."
Wolfe liked the idea of doing the project in phases, and added although an open-air structure was an idea that was suggested in past meetings, something as simple as beautifying an area into a park setting could work just as well.
Other suggestions from DDA members included using Cass Street or the parking lot between Cass Street and M-57 on the east side of Lafayette Street for events and to include an awning of the area to protect from weather.
The DDA would use the same area for events and activities, such as showing movies, recreational events and more.
Some of the things the members would like to see besides bringing the farmers market back to the downtown is somehow connecting the Flat River and the Fred Meijer Flat River Trail to the downtown area.
The DDA will take the next month to develop more ideas and, at the next meeting, will start to work on developing a definite plan.

Das Wesen des Christentums (original 1841; edition 1984)
by Ludwig Feuerbach, Karl Löwith (Nachwort)
Work details
The Essence of Christianity by Ludwig Feuerbach (1841)
No current Talk conversations about this book.
Writing about a subject I am only vaguely interested in terms which I cannot be bothered to try and understand.
Another in the surprisingly large group of books, 'things that, although incomprehensible to people who don't understand Hegel, are read with great relish by people who don't understand Hegel because they can be used to re-affirm preexisting prejudices' (see also Marx, Kojeve, all the 'end of history' types, various aesthetic theories, etc etc).
Feuerbach's argument is, roughly, that Christianity is exactly what Hegel said it is, except that 'Geist' is the human species (which is probably what Hegel meant, too). He's far more intelligent and well read than any contemporary atheistical controversialist, and his argument is far better, inasmuch as he doesn't want to destroy religion; he just wants everyone to understand it properly. If we understand it properly, he says, we'll recognize that all the attributes of God (goodness, creativity, intelligence etc) are actually attributes of the human species as a whole, even though individuals quite often lack those attributes. Christianity is the 'highest' religion, since Christ is a really good, backdoor way of admitting that divine attributes are really human: Christ = the human species. In short, for Feuerbach Christianity is pretty much right, provided that you focus on the predicates of religious statements ('God is good,' 'God is love,' etc...) and not their subject. The predicates are 'true,' the subject is imaginary.
That's a great argument. This book, though, is tiresome for a twenty-first century reader: you really only need the opening chapters (and a good knowledge of the Ph. of Geist and Science of Logic) to get the point. Much of the rest is elaboration. The whole second part is a tour de force, in which Ludwig shows how his view of religion can explain various theological controversies: can we prove the existence of God? What is the status of revelation vs reason? What kind of thing is God, if he is a thing? What is the status of philosophical theology? How can we put the Trinity into words? What happens during baptism/eucharist? Why do Christians, who profess the gospel of love, hate so many people? None of this is at all interesting, inasmuch as his explanations are pretty mediocre, and many of the issues are dead.
It does show, though, that he knows something about the religion he's writing about (cf: Dawkins, Hitchens, Harris etc...) Ludwig's also much better at being a person than those writers. He doesn't use his attack on religion to drag humanity down; he doesn't want to say we're just animals or we're just matter or any such thing. He wants to say we're a part of nature, but that that means we have to understand nature much more widely than we usually do. Human activities, social activities, etc., are all 'natural,' on the right definition of nature. On the definition of nature most people operate under, though, they're supernatural: they can't be explained by natural science. This is not, for Ludwig, a reason to declare them non-existent or aberrant. It's a reason to re-examine religion, *and* the limits of empiricist thought.
One of the more difficult books I've ever read, but filled with great ideas. Basically Feuerbach says that Christianity (love of Christ) should really be about love of man, and this is simply because Christ sacrificed himself becasue of this love for man. Consequently, if we don't love and care for our fellow men, we are letting Jesus' sacrifice go to waste. More basically, he says that our version of God is really the divine virtues in ourselves, so religion is nothing more than self-worship (but not in a bad way).
The beginning, middle and end of religion is MAN.
The dictum that one should "believe as a child" is a popular one among Christians of many stripes. Unquestioning belief is often held to be the true sign of piety, while scepticism and uncertainty are rejected out of hand. Yet so much of civilisation is based on rational discourse and philosophical enquiry. To claim that religion is completely ineffable would then seem to be reserving special privileges for one sphere of human existence, perhaps one of the most influential spheres. Is this justifiable? Or is it a sign of pusillanimity, a human fear of exposing the straw-man arguments on which many believers base their faith? Ludwig Feuerbach, a nineteenth-century German philosopher, would argue for the latter. In his fair-minded, densely written book, Feuerbach argues that, in essence, "theology is anthropology" – not in the narrow sense of anthropology as an academic study of human societies, but in a much broader sense: belief is solely a predicate of human existence, and, according to Feuerbach, Christianity is not based on the existence of an actual deity or real miraculous events, but rather based only on human needs and our limited understanding of the world. Obviously, that is a very, very condensed précis of what Feuerbach actually argues for around 300 pages. But it gives the gist of what he contends. Very controversial ideas, admittedly, whether we are talking about the nineteenth or twenty-first century.
The book is a work of philosophy that depends on a great deal of foreknowledge about the field, so it is not an easy read. And even if you have a working knowledge of Western philosophy, you will probably need to have a good amount of patience to get through it: Henry James-like paragraphs await the intrepid explorer of Feuerbach's book, stuffed with quotations in Latin by the Church Fathers and many quotations from Luther (Feuerbach spares neither Catholicism nor Protestantism in his indictment of religion). The book is divided into two parts, the first concerning what Feuerbach calls "The True or Anthropological Essence of Religion", in which he adopts a fairly positive tone in teasing out what he believes to be the core of religion. In the second part ("The False or Theological Essence of Religion"), however, Feuerbach pulls no punches in chastising religion for what he believes are its contradictions and inherent problems. Feuerbach can be very forceful here, and I can see why this book has upset people in the past.
An interesting note: the book was originally translated by George Eliot, and this is also the edition I read. I find it intriguing that Eliot would have been interested in this kind of book, as she is, on the whole, hardly a polemical writer. Being a translation, little of her own style really seeps through into the book, but it would be interesting to see how Feuerbach's ideas penetrate Eliot's own writing. There are a few grammatical problems with the translation as well, mostly related to the German use of du, which Eliot translates as thou, leading to a sometimes strange, anachronistic tone.
I thought The Essence of Christianity was an excellent philosophical work, but it certainly will not be for everyone. I did not agree with all of Feuerbach's conclusions, but his humanist polemic certainly made me think. One should not reject this book merely because it might threaten one's cherished beliefs. In fact, that is probably the best reason to read it. Complacency in one's beliefs is surely as dangerous as heresy, and much more insidious. As a famous publication puts it, one should take part in "a severe contest between intelligence, which presses forward, and an unworthy, timid ignorance obstructing our progress." It would be a shame to toss the book aside for its arguments. Its difficulty is another matter.

Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0879755598, Paperback)In this, one of the most influential works of the post-Hegelian era, Feuerbach captures the synthesis that emerges from the dialectical process of a transcending Godhead and the rational and material world. In understanding the true nature of what it means to be fully human, Feuerbach contends that we come face to face with the essence of Christian theology: human beings investing ordinary concepts with divine meaning and significance. The true danger to humanity occurs when theology is given the force of dogma and doctrine. Losing sight of its anthropological underpinnings and dependence upon or emergence from human nature, it then acquires an existence separate from that of humankind. Feuerbach leaves nothing untouched: miracles, the Trinity, Creation, prayer, resurrection, immortality, faith and much more.

The ZTE A2017 will come with 4GB of RAM and 64GB of native storage (51GB is available to the user). A 21MP rear camera shoots 4K video, and an 8MP front-facing camera takes care of selfies and video chats. Android 6.0.1 is pre-installed.
So far, there is no word on when we might see this model officially unveiled by the manufacturer. If this phone is coming to the U.S. like many of the Axon models did over the last year, we should see it pay a visit to the FCC for U.S. certification.

BUIES CREEK, N.C. — The Campbell football team held its first full scrimmage on Saturday morning inside Barker-Lane Stadium as about 150 friends and family members looked on. The majority of the scrimmage was played in a steady drizzle, but the heavy rains held off until after the conclusion of the intra-squad contest.
After the team went through its normal warm-up routines, the scrimmage began with the kickers practicing their field goals from various distances. When the offensive and defensive teams took the field, defensive back Paul Pizzuti made one of the first big plays, intercepting quarterback Braden Smith.
The offense would then strike as running back Carl Smith put together a string of positive plays. Intially, Smith caught a pass from Braden Smith for a 15-yard reception. The redshirt senior from Pinetops, N.C. then earned a modest seven-yard gain rushing before breaking off a 30-yard touchdown run during which he broke multiple tackles.
The team alternated every few offensive/defensive series with a set of special teams action. Redshirt senior placekicker Adam Willets converted several field goals on the day in addition to some excellent punts. The second round of offensive sets saw Preston Dodson, a former CU basketball player, show off his leaping ability with a fine 28-yard reception from Braden Smith.
Both offensive teams were then able to practice their two-minute offense by taking over posession in their own territory with 1:45 on the clock. The first-team offense marched its way down the field, converting on a touchdown pass from Braden Smith to Harrison Jordan. On the two-point conversion, Stephen Sladek took the option pitch from Smith and converted the try.
The second-team offense, led by quarterback Dakota Wolf, marched its way down the field into field goal range. The drive ended with Adam Willets nailing a 35-yard field goal.
In an overtime session, excellent plays were turned in by defensive back Aaron Nichols, who collected an interception and wide receiver Josh Quirk, who put together back-to-back 25-yard receptions from quarterback Nick Potts.
Coach Steele was pleased with the progress that his team has shown thus far in camp. You can see an interview with him at the attached link. The Camels will have Sunday off and return to the practice field for a Monday morning session beginning at 9:05 a.m.

Access to quality schools is often a strong motivation for mobility, especially for those with the most initiative. Unfortunately, in most communities, schools are run by elected boards that don't usually consider the community development impact of their decisions. This is an area community development activists and advocates need to tackle.
Skipping "Placed-Based" Work Leaves Cities Vulnerable to Climate Change
Posted by Denise Fairchild on September 15, 2015
I remember it clearly. "The Myth of Community Development," Nicholas Lemann's 1994 New York Times Magazine article, cracked the foundation of the community development industry. He argued that no one wanted to live in ghettos; they were merely transition zones toward the ultimate suburban dream. [Editor's Note: Shelterforce published several critiques of Lemann's article, including one by then-vice president Al Gore. Read them here]. He even critiqued the community wealth creation benefits of community development, and cited the fact that the New Community Corporation CDC in Newark, New Jersey created over 2,000 jobs, attracted and started numerous community-owned businesses, and provided essential community services such as child care to an economically battered community, but failed to spur private sector enterprises.
The article shifted the social change environment from place-based initiatives to 'income- mobility strategies.' Lemann critiqued the Clinton Administration's proposed Enterprise Zone programs by suggesting that place-based schemes—including urban renewal, model cities, community development block grant programs and community economic development—never did and never would, work.
The retreat from the community development field was palpable. 'Income mobility' became the answer to the problems of crime, poverty, physical and social deterioration of inner cities. The logic followed that if people wanted out of the ghetto then it was up to us to help them. New foundation and government initiatives emerged, focused on the material needs of low-income families. Income mobility—income supports, cash grants, jobs, workforce and sector development opportunities—took center stage. Housing mobility strategies such as housing vouchers and HUD's Title VI program helped some residents of low-income communities move.
Income mobility strategies became the tools of not only social reformers, but also social change advocates, and so, for the last two decades, we have been fighting for a bigger piece of the pie. Questions of equity and a fair share of the economic growth engines dominate our social policy and change efforts.
And while we have been winning community benefit agreements from public and private investments, local hire and procurement goals, mixed-income housing as part of mixed-use projects, and battles for family wages and minimum wage standards that address income-inequality, it is only clear now that we have also crippled the capacity of cities and communities to be climate resilient.
The tools of community development include many of the same foundational tools to both mitigate and adapt to climate change, widely considered a threat multiplier to already socially and economically vulnerable communities.
And so, this is not an argument against the legitimacy of various social and economic mobility strategies. Rather, it is a warning that income strategies are necessary but insufficient for addressing contemporary inner city challenges. Consider the following:
First, we now know that Nicholas Lehman was wrong. He was wrong about the significance of inner cities and he was wrong about the importance of community development because we are now struggling to stem widespread gentrification and displacement underway in every major inner city in the country. Clearly, community development is not dead, but I submit that we lost ground by not ensuring that a greater share of the urban economy stayed in the hands of local residents. Investing in place-based development projects that specifically focused on building community wealth through community control and ownership of land, housing, and the economy—as opposed to Enterprise Zones—would have helped.
Second, replacing the ethic of self-reliance and collective economics with economic and social uplift underdeveloped our ability to be climate resilient. We are just now taking up the fight to both mitigate and adapt to the consequences of climate change.
Of course, who knew twenty years ago what climate change was or its consequences, especially for low-income, communities of color? The fact is, we are paying for the environmental impact of an economy that relies on fossil fuel, deforestation, depletion of other natural resources, industrial obsolescence, and toxic materials. The cumulative effects of our extractive economy has been a global warming resulting in, among other things, increased frequency and intensity of hurricanes, floods, droughts, and heat waves. These climate conditions are now threatening our very survivability, including deaths from weather disasters, such as the 1,800 deaths from Hurricane Katrina just ten years ago, but also our food and water supplies. In fact, climate change is widely known as a threat multiplier for vulnerable communities already compromised by poverty, deteriorated housing, poor health, and other challenges.
Income mobility strategies do little to mitigate climate change. In fact, instead of dismantling the extractive economy, we are reinforcing it by asking for a greater share of it. Asking for greater access to jobs and income from industries that are polluting our communities, damaging our health, and destroying our environments while also producing great income inequality leaves standing an economy that is both fundamentally unjust and unsustainable.
Income mobility strategies also do not build climate resilience, nor do they provide the tools communities need to adapt to climate change. But there are important synergies between climate resilience and community development, including: (1) a focus on local solutions and capacities; (2) the creation of social capital to work together on problems; (3) emphasis on self-reliant and decentralized food, energy and transportation systems to respond to market failures, (4) local business capacity to provide commodities (and income) for residents during and after a disaster—21,000 businesses were dislocated during Katrina and few have returned; and (5) decent affordable, housing options.
The greatest mistake we can make now is not recognizing the unique and complementary value of these various social change efforts. These three fields of practice—income mobility, climate change, and community development have much to learn from each other. We must decide how we will build one powerful movement with a unified vision of a just and sustainable economy . . . before it's too late.

The author says her post is "not an argument against the legitimacy of various social and economic mobility strategies" but on several points, it reads as though that is precisely the intent.
First, this myth that housing mobility was seized upon by the federal government and funded could not be more false. Virtually the only funding for housing mobility has come when advocates forced the issue through litigation. No administration—- including the current one—- has actually provided material support to "help people out of the ghetto."
Second, The critique of HOPE VI is really a critique of the prevailing paradigm in place-based redevelopment, not mobility. HOPE VI and CHOICE Neighborhoods are by design place-based urban renewal programs. They include no requirements and little encouragement for housing mobility, along with disincentives for development off-site in opportunity areas. So it makes no sense at all to lump HOPE VI/Choice Neighborhoods in with housing mobility.
Third, the community development sector may not have received the support that would be needed to transform disinvested neighborhoods. But it is certainly not because funding has been shifted to housing mobility as alleged here. Community development has always been and remains the dominant ideology and beneficiary of federal funds.
Fourth, it is simply not true that "widespread gentrification and displacement [are] underway in every major inner city in the country." That is the view from the relatively privileged perspective of rich cities, not those like Baltimore where we struggle with much bigger problems: poverty, segregation, lack of demand and disinvestment.
If you want to argue the benefit of community development strategies I might even join you on many points—- although the connection to resiliency and climate change seems contrived, like stretching too far in an effort to jump on that bandwagon.
But waging unprovoked and demonstrably false attacks like this on housing and other economic mobility strategies is unwarranted and divisive.

Please seek a formal diagnosis, without that anything we say is amateur guesswork. Any self treatment based on a self diagnosis can do more harm than good - all the things you have tried are capable of further damaging the skin's barrier function.
Whilst you are organising an appointment with your family doctor or a dermatologist, DO NOT scratch use cold compresses instead, do not heat your scalp wash in cool water, no long plops or towel turbans. Both heat and scratching can trigger histamine release, cool should provide temporary relief but is in no way a 'cure'.
Also review your diet and make it as micronutrient dense and anti inflammatory as possible, particularly look at your intake of essential fatty acids from oily fish and your intake of sugar/ white refined carbs. This can alter the composition of your sebum, strengthen your skin barrier, calm any inappropriate immune responses and reduce systemic inflammation all of which are implicated in the most common scalp disorders.
All products contain ingredients which can irritate or cause allergic reactions given the right set of circumstances, Tresemme Naturals is nothing special in that regard. Irritations and allergies can arise at any time, they do not need to be to a new product or ingredient. Even chlorine in tap water can be a problem where there is an underlying dermatological disorder.

As Smokey says "its Friday, you aint got no job, you aint got shit to do!" What you can do though is listen to this wicked track by all girl soul group The Flirtations. I first heard this track when working behind the bar at the Subclub in Glasgow for their weekly sunday club night – Optimo, which remains the best club night Ive ever been to. Some tools tried to pull a dance remix of this a few years back, but I've managed to forget how that sounds. Here's the track in all its original glory. ps, when i snuff it, i want this played at my funeral. Happy Friday mo fos.

Hey Jude! English Garners First PGA Tour Win
Harris English and Nicholas Reach made the Bulldog Nation proud last weekend.
On Sunday, former Bulldog English claimed his first PGA TOUR victory in the FedEx St. Jude Classic in Memphis, Tenn. Rising junior Reach on Saturday won the Palmetto Amateur.
• English's win was documented by The Associated Press:
The support of a handful of old high school buddies, the calming influence of a veteran caddie and timely putting were exactly what Harris English needed to pull out his first PGA Tour victory.
English won the St. Jude Classic on Sunday, birdieing two of the final three holes to hold off Phil Mickelson and Scott Stallings by two strokes.
"I had probably 10 high school friends out there today," English said. "And I know that if I make a birdie or a bogey, they're probably going to be the same and they're rooting me on. I was just really relaxed out there today. Bogeyed eight and nine, which was tough. But I knew if I kept it together on the back nine, I could make a run at the thing."
The 23-year-old former Georgia star in his second year on tour survived a final round where he had six birdies and five bogeys. He finished with a 1-under 69 for a 12-under 268 total to get the victory in the same state where he helped Baylor in Chattanooga win four Tennessee high school golf titles.
English said caddie Brian Smith also helped him refocus as he made the turn.
"I really didn't think I'd be in this seat right here coming off 9," English said. "I thought I kind of made some really dumb bogeys on eight, nine and kind of shot myself out of the tournament. But Smitty was saying, 'Hey let's go beat this back nine. Let's get back under par for the tournament for the day, and let's get after it.' So it was almost pedal to the metal."
English got four of his birdies on the back nine and saw on No. 14 that he was the lead at 10 under. He made a 5-foot birdie putt on No. 16 to tie Stallings for the lead, but Stallings bogeyed No. 18 to give English the lead to himself. English made a 17-foot birdie putt on No. 17, and overcame shaking hands as he two-putted No. 18 to pick up the winner's check of $1,026,000.
"It's quite an unbelievable feeling," English said.
English became the fourth player to win the event in his first start since the tournament moved to TPC Southwind in 1989 and the second straight after Dustin Johnson a year ago.
English won the Southern Amateur in 2011 and was an amateur when he won on the Web.com Tour at the Nationwide Children's Hospital Invitational in July 2011. He moved to the PGA Tour in 2012 and finished 79th on the money list. Now he has his fourth top 10 this year and a precious invitation to the Masters for the Georgia native.
• And the Aiken Standard was there for Reach's win:
Saturday was all about second chances for Nicholas Reach in the final round of the Palmetto Amateur at Palmetto Golf Club.
The rising junior at the University of Georgia won the event, shortened to 54 holes because of heavy rains Thursday night and early Friday, on the second playoff hole against Scott Strohmeyer. Reach lost the 2011 Palmetto Amateur on the first playoff hole against Will McCurdy.
Reach said that winning a tournament in which he had previously come up short added to his satisfaction.
"It means a ton," he said. "I think that means more to me than if I were to win it as my first time."
Reach had a chance to all but seal the tournament in regulation. With Strohmeyer waiting on the 18th tee after bogeying No. 17 to drop to 4-under, Reach had a birdie putt of roughly 15 feet that would've pushed him to 6-under and a two-stroke lead.
He missed the putt and tapped in for par, which opened the door for Strohmeyer to force the playoff. The University of Alabama product did so by hitting his drive into the way to the greenside bunker before hitting his second shot to within a foot of the cup for a tap-in birdie.
"I was aware that I needed a birdie to probably get into the playoff, and I've struggled out of bunkers for the last 2 1/2 weeks," Strohmeyer said. "So to be able to hit it (to), I guess, a foot was really nice."
Reach finished the final round with a 68 in regulation, and Strohmeyer carded a 69.
That sent the duo to the 16th hole, a 212-yard par 3, for the first hole of their playoff. Reach said that his mindset changed for how he planned to play the holes for the playoff.
"It's just a match-play thing," he said. "I was just trying to hit in on the green on 16, middle of the green, and just make 3. If he makes 2, then he wins."
Reach didn't make the middle of the green, leaving his tee shot short, but Strohmeyer was even farther over the mark. Reach was still short on his second shot, and Strohmeyer had a lengthy par putt as well. Both missed but made their bogey putts to move to the 17th hole, a 388-yard par 4.
Each player made the green in regulation, but Strohmeyer was about 20 feet away, well outside Reach at roughly 10 feet. Once Strohmeyer missed his birdie try, Reach had another birdie putt to collect a victory at Palmetto.
This time, he connected, and after shaking Strohmeyer's hand, he went back to celebrate with a hug for his mother and caddie, Brigitte. She said she was less nervous carrying Nicholas' bag than watching as a spectator, and she tried to keep her son calm, as well.
"I enjoy spending the time with him, and I'm coming along anyway," she said. "I just try to keep him calm. I'll sing some country songs and tell him some silly jokes and it passes the time. My nerves aren't as rattled when I'm caddying."
She said it was "just fabulous" to be on the green with Nicholas when he won the event, and he was also appreciative of the opportunity.
"Most important thing for me," he said. "She caddies for me in every summer tournament that she possibly can, and, I mean, I really appreciate her so much."

"Wanderlust," Bjork
"Wanderlust," Delays
"Wanderlust," R.E.M.
"Wannabe," Spice Girls
"War," Bruce Springsteen & The E Street Band
"War Pigs," Cake
"Warakurna," Midnight Oil
"The Warbler," The Choir
"Warning," Green Day
"Warning Sign," Talking Heads
Yes, the quote above is from the Spice Girls. But for a moment try to forget that's where that line is from and try not to think about that silly song. Is there a more important or more intimate question than this?
It's not even a question, actually, but a command: "Tell me." Connect. Tell me. Tell me what you want, what you really, really want.
In the context of the silly song, "really" seemed like one of those all-purpose empty intensifiers that tend to pepper our speech. "I really want," in that sense, meaning roughly the same thing as "I very much want" or "I bleeping want" — conveying intensity and urgency, but nothing more. But the word offers more than that. "Really" can also mean truly, genuinely, sincerely. Strip away pretension, propriety, insecurity, fear and the bills you have to pay. Strip away concern for what others might say or think or expect. Strip away every mask, veil, closet, beard, disguise or cultivated persona. Disregard all of that and tell me what you want, what you really, really want. Describe for me your pearl of great price, your treasure hidden in a field.
Back in 1996, the Spice Girls' "Wannabe" was unavoidable. It seemed like there was nowhere one could go without hearing those lyrics. In our daily lives, though, the occasion to say such a thing — the opportunity to invite such a vulnerable confession, to really, really connect — is a rare and precious thing, a kind of miracle. If anything is sacred, it is a moment such as this: "Tell me what you want, what you really, really want." "I'll tell you what I want, what I really, really want, I want …"
For all that, though, "Wannabe" is still a screechingly awful, if catchy, bit of disposable pop. The difficulty or seeming impossibility, of ever telling what we want, what we really, really want, or even of fully knowing what that is ourselves, is reflected in those three songs above that share the title "Wanderlust." Each of those songs, one way or another, aspires to get at the unsettling refusal to settle for anything less. Some people sleep, some people yearn.

Experience with dealers and TSB's
I read this site a lot and like it. I seldom post but decided to share some of my experiences for your consideration.
Having problems with a new car can be really frustrating---I have been there many time over my long life. Many times that frustration causes us to behave in strange ways, often disrespectful, threating, and combative. I assure you that if we let our frustration get the best of us and start getting ugly, threating lawyers, lemon law, etc. right off the bat it will likely result in less cooperation not more. However, in my experience, a person that is calm, courteous, patient, and respectful with a dealer will often get service with equal respect and maybe even see the dealer go the extra mile. If satisfaction can not be achieved through respectful dialogue and enough time then there are certainly other remedies to pursue down the road--but even that can be done in a respectful way.
As far as TSB's are concerned--- they are bulletins containing technical information to assist a dealer in diagnosing a problem raised by a customer. TSB's are supposed to be proprietary information. A TSB is not an ENTITLEMENT of action-- it is a tool to assist a dealer in providing a good diagnosis and appropriate repair-- the decision to act on a TSB is the dealers to make.
In fact if I were in the auto business and a customer came in waiving a handful of TSB's demanding that I install them whether I needed them or not I think I would be less interested in going the extra mile with that customer. The way it should work is for a customer to experience a problem with their car and discuss it with the dealer, the dealer tries to diagnose the problem with the aid of their scan tools, other tools, their experience, conferring with the manufacture, TSB's, and whatever else they deem helpful.
If the problem is confirmed then they perform the appropriate action. If no problem is found they probably will probably not tie up technicians and do work at a reduced warranty rate for no reason. This is not a game--it is a very appropriate business process that any manufacture of durable goods would follow in any industry.
Plus if we try to get a dealer to make our vehicle do something it was never designed to do I don't think they will do it. We can request that the manufacture consider make the change we would like or there are dozens of small shops that specialize in doing unique software or hardware changes not engineered or approved by the manufacturer. We can certainly pay them to do it at our own risk.
A manufacturer recall, on the other hand, is something that all owners with vehicles described in the notice are fully ENTITLED to--no questions asked!!
Plus don't forget, those of us with a 2014 wkII,-- we are in the early years of a lot of newer technology and it may take a while for the manufacture to get it all worked out. So far I have found Jeep and my dealer to be very responsive and committed to work through all of the issues. I am pleased with the attention Jeep is giving to problems and personally feel that most of the issues are behind us. It seems that later build dates are doing quit well.
Currently I have a Ram 3500, Jeep Liberty diesel and fortunately my 2014 Summit (July build date) which I have had very few issues with.
I have too many years of experience (old) with many automobiles and dealers, I have experienced countless problems and frustrations with every manufacture I have owned--American, European, and Asian. I just wanted to share my views resulting from this experience and hope it helps someone.:)
Re: Experience with dealers and TSB's
R, well said.
Re: Experience with dealers and TSB's
I stated this experience on another thread but will restate here. My Jeep was in for the bad XM reception problem fix recently and this time I just told them about the problem without mentioning the TSB for it as I could tell I have agitated them with TSB talk in the past. So 2 days pass that they have the jeep and they call and say your radio has no errors in it and is functioning fine and we want to keep it another day so we can reload the radio software but we have no usb sick but will buy one tomorrow. I stated I don't think it is a radio problem and then emailed them the TSB and said this TSB describes the exact problem I am having with XM reception the problem sounds like an antenna problem. Light bulbs go off and they say they will order parts, wrong parts were ordered and are then reordered. 5 days (glad for the maxcare rental) later jeep is back XM reception fixed. If I had not stepped in I have no doubt my jeep would have come back with the same problem it went in with. Not the first time I have encountered this type scenario being a first time jeep owner.
I guess the point is dealers are not always stellar at trouble shooting nor do they have the time to examine specific issues as closely as an interested knowledgeable owner might. So I guess what I am saying is that we often need to find a balance between helping them in the right direction vs telling them what to do.
I do agree with the majority of your post though, well said.
Re: Experience with dealers and TSB's
What a bunch of crap...I bet you work for Chrysler. Either that or you're the biggest leg-humper fan boy on this site.
I have every right to demand that TSBs aimed at correcting the issues that affect my vehicle be fixed, period. Most the time the TSB explains the problem better than I can...if anything I feel I'm making the dealerships job easier by showing the TSB in order to identify the issue more accurately.
...like the TSB to fix my crappy shifting transmission from day one (4th revision now), or the TSB to fix the climet system from turning off everytime I remote start the vehicle. I also have the right to demand my radio is updated to the latest version so I may reap all the benefits from all the "enhancements".
Not my problem Chrysler doesn't reimburse the dealerships enough for warranty work, reading your post just made me even more pissed off than I am at my vehicle and the lousy service I get from my dealership.
"Edmunds article, "How Can a Technical Service Bulletin Help Me?" states that if there's a TSB for your particular problem, and it's verifiable by the dealer, then the repair is free to cars within the warranty period."
Re: Experience with dealers and TSB's
Your own attitude has a lot to do with how you get treated. If you talk to the people at the dealership with the same tone you use here, it's no surprise they don't want to help. If you go back and read your posts you very often use words like fight, garbage, crap, demand, etc.
I have brought copies of TSBs to the dealer when I had appointments for other work. I ask them if they think I should get it done. They have always taken care of it on that visit.
I mentioned to the service writer on one visit that I would probably see her next month when the recall notice was issued for the Christmas tree dash. The service manager heard me and asked what I was talking about because they had not been notified yet. They were aware of the problem, just not the recall. We had a discussion about recalls, TSBs, and the problems with the '14s.
If I had said to the service writer, I'll be bringing this piece of crap back next month so that maybe you'll have somebody capable of fixing it, and if you don't you'll be hearing from my lawyer because I know about the lemon law, yada yada yada, I doubt the service manager would have approached me to have a discussion about anything. He might have held the door for me. ;)
Re: Experience with dealers and TSB's
Post 4 is hilarious. "You can catch more flies with honey than you can with vinegar." :lol:
Re: Experience with dealers and TSB's
I also don't understand why some people insist on making an issue over my posts, it's not like I'm complaining about every little thing...just big issues like transmission or reprograming issues...I'm not ever at the dealership complaining about interior trim or defective paint.
I save my venting for this web site.;)
Re: Experience with dealers and TSB's
I didn't mean to anger you-- and I don't work for Chrysler. If you don't use that tone when you talk to dealer I am curious why you would on a forum with a fellow GC owner that is just trying to give some helpful ideas????
I guess I should stop posting--good lesson for new members.
Re: Experience with dealers and TSB's
I think it's valuable to be educate oneself about your vehicle. For instance the quadralift suspension TSB for the issue where the raising and lowering light continue to flash even after the vehicle has reached the correct ride height. I cannot duplicate it at will, but describing the problem to the dealer will likely return the typical, "We haven't heard of that before" response. Describing the issue and telling them you are aware of a TSB on the issue and that a software update should resolve it, IMO will increase the likeliness of getting it corrected.
Re: Experience with dealers and TSB's
Re: Experience with dealers and TSB's
Re: Experience with dealers and TSB's
I feel I have the right to have a functioning vehicle for the $40,000 I paid for it, and if there's a TSB out there that addresses the issue I've been having, it damn well should be used towards fixing it. That's what "Warranty" is all about, agreed?
I'm not angry I bought a "Beta" vehicle, I'm angry because Chrysler doesn't seem to want to help me by making it hard to get TSBs implemented.

Photographer on mission to save Asia's lost images
By Venus Wu
HONG KONG (Reuters Life!) - Hong Kong's colonial architecture and early street life may now have largely vanished, but a new foundation in the city is aiming to revive these bygone times by hunting down a trove of old photographs hidden overseas.
Tens of thousands of rare historical images from Hong Kong and other countries across Asia are now believed to lie buried in the vast collections of universities, libraries and individuals the world over, largely hidden from public view.
"Photos such as these deserve to be given a fresh audience today," said writer and photographer Edward Stokes who set up the Hong Kong Photographic Heritage Foundation in 2008 to unearth, contextualize and publish such images.
The foundation's first book "Hong Kong As It Was" features the striking black-and-white images of German photographer Hedda Morrison depicting everyday life in the 1940s.
"Morrison has 60,000 negatives held at Harvard and Cornell. About 10,000 have great historical, cultural and social meaning, yet only about 1,000 of them have ever been seen, have ever been published," Stokes said.
"They show a Hong Kong so far removed from what we know today; a place struggling with its sway of refugees, its squatter shacks and its early public housing."
Since he accidentally stumbled upon Morrison's photos in a local university library, Stokes has traveled the world trying to dig up more vanished images.
The foundation's list of future projects runs long. Apart from reviving the works of a little-known 19th century Chinese photographer, Stokes also plans to publish other forgotten photographs from China, India, Singapore and Malaysia. Continued...

Cubicle Fever: Is There Life At Your Desk?
Scanners are the 21st Century's version of Xerox machines. And you'd be amazed at the quality of butt scans they can produce.
When the days are shortest, but feel the longest... when it's dark when you leave for work and dark when you get home... when those partition walls are closing in and you just don't think you can stand another minute at your desk... that's when you've got a bad case of Cubicle Fever. It's like cabin fever, but less rustic.
