Internet heaps $187K on broke Jamaican bobsledders
(NEWSER) – If you're a fan of Cool Runnings, consider this: You can help send this year's Jamaican bobsled team to the Olympics. The team qualified for the games for the first time since 2002, but needs to raise tens of thousands of dollars to actually travel to Sochi. Fortunately, the Internet exists, meaning the trip is getting crowdfunded:
- A Crowdtilt campaign has raised more than $113,000 so far.
- An Indiegogo campaign has raised nearly $40,000 so far.
- And in perhaps the weirdest development, the person who runs the Dogecoin Foundation has launched a fundraising effort using the Bitcoin-like cryptocurrency Dogecoin. The "Dogesled" campaign has raised nearly $34,000 so far.

A reader writes: "I recently heard John Mackay at a meeting at Edinburgh Scotland and was impressed with his presentation and approach. I have relayed to one of my colleagues how he explained that Thymine has a higher affinity for Thymine so it supports design being involved in DNA creation. He went off disbelieving of this and found out that this is only under UV light or infra-red energy which to me would be the conditions Evolutionists would think was there in the beginning. Can you please refer me to the exact research John was referring to and the arguments that go with it to help me reason with this person. They also think that with time, evolution, i.e. the creation of DNA, the world, could just happen. How can I reason against this?"
Editorial Comment: Dr Eager replies:
The bases that act as the letters in DNA are attached to the sugar-phosphate backbone and the base on the opposite strand, but not to bases on either side of them along the DNA strand. If they do bond with adjacent bases they cannot be read by the DNA copying machinery. In UV light adjacent thymine bases tend to bond with one another to form a thymine dimer. Normally the DNA surveillance and repair mechanisms will find thymine dimers, remove them and replace them with normal letters, as the thymine–thymine bond destroys the coded information sequence. When there is a lot of UV light the repair mechanism cannot keep up with the damage and the genes containing them are not copied properly. This is a well-known cause of skin cancer. Thymine dimers are good evidence against evolution and for creation for the following reasons:
1. The evolutionists claim that UV light is a source of energy for forming pre-biotic organic chemicals. UV light would make more thymine dimers which destroys the information in DNA, rather than enable the formation of properly configured DNA with all the base bonding in meaningful ways to the backbone and the opposite bases.
2. DNA within cells tends to be degraded by UV unless the surveillance repair mechanism can maintain it. The repair mechanism involves many proteins, which are coded for by DNA. This is an example of irreducible complexity. If the repair mechanisms are not there, or are even partly defunct, the cells can become cancerous or are deliberately destroyed by the body. We know this because there is rare inherited tendency to form skin cancer caused by damage to the repair mechanism that normally removes damaged DNA. (Try searching for "Xeroderma pigmentosa")
3. Whilst the chemical behaviour and structure of DNA can be explained by the laws of chemistry, the information carried in the sequence of chemical letters along the strands of DNA cannot. To understand, think of written information on a printed page. Chemistry will explain the colour of the ink and how it is bonded to the paper, but it will not explain the difference between an ink blot and a page of organized information printed with that same ink in a science textbook. That difference did not come from the properties of the ink, but from the creative minds of the Intelligent Authors, interpreted by the intelligent minds of readers who have been pre-programmed to know what organized bits of ink communicate.

The year 1972 was a big one for me. I left the U.S. Air Force, and I married the woman I still love. Once it dawned on me that I needed income to support my wife and our future family, I started looking about for what to do.
I seriously considered working in one of Southern California's aircraft manufacturing facilities. Good thing I didn't, choosing, instead, to go into banking and, later, academia. Most aircraft manufacturing jobs are gone. Lots of other jobs are gone, too. In 1972, Southern California was a major manufacturing center. Beside aircraft, Southern Californians built cars, tires, ships and lots of other things.
It was also a time of optimism and economic growth. California was still the place where anything could be done. In the 40 years since, I've watched California lose one industry after another.
Today, California has few sources of economic growth. Our trade is increasingly threatened by an expanded Panama Canal, increased shipping capacity in Mexico and Canada and our own unwillingness to expand our ports and supporting infrastructure. Our entertainment industry is threatened by changing technology and increased competition from other geographies. Our education sector is threatened by funding challenges, bureaucracy and a reluctance to adapt to a rapidly changing environment.
But, we still have one really good sector. Tech, with its venture-capital infrastructure and concentration of talent, will be a persistent source of economic strength for California. Or, so I thought before I recently met Dino Vendetti.
Vendetti is a serial entrepreneur and a veteran venture capitalist. He's a Silicon Valley insider. He's also a threat to California's tech future.
Startups used to require $10 million to $30 million to get going. The big investment was associated with big burn rates (rate at which losses ate up capital). They required big teams and big infrastructure. Because of this, they located in the Silicon Valley, New York or Boston.
Not anymore, according to Vendetti. He talks about structural changes going on in early-stage tech entrepreneurship. According to him, the digital cloud, open-source development tools, low-cost bandwidth, Web 2.0 as a distribution channel, modern accelerators, and scalable business models have allowed low burn rates of capital by delaying scaling until revenue materialized.
This shift toward lean-startup methodologies is changing the way startups are financed. It allows more risk taking, because smaller individual investments allow increased portfolio diversification. This is a threat to Silicon Valley's dominance. It is an opportunity for other California cities. If other cities in the state don't capitalize on the opportunity, it's a threat to California.
All this is leading to what Vendetti calls a democratization of entrepreneurship. It's reduced, but not eliminated, the disadvantages of a startup located outside the traditional centers of venture-capital-driven entrepreneurship. It's made vibrant regional tech clusters feasible.
Vendetti says that anywhere with a university, risk capital and accelerators can grow a tech cluster. I would add that you also need plenty of bandwidth and an airport with easy access to the traditional tech centers.
Vendetti is putting his money where his mouth is. He's building what looks to me to be an entrepreneurial farm system in Bend, Ore. It's a complete venture-capital infrastructure that includes what are called Startup Weekends, where ideas undergo vigorous vetting for market and profit potential; three-week mini programs to follow the Startup Weekends; and, finally, an accelerator, (an intensive process of building a business plan and firm over a few months, to the point where it's ready for initial-stage venture capital). He's also organizing investors around a venture capital fund.
It's not just Vendetti's money. He has investors and partners from Silicon Valley. This is a big deal for Californians. Entrepreneurial tech could be the state's last economic engine. Somebody from Sacramento needs to talk to Vendetti and find out what it would take to keep him and others like him in California.

The secret ingredient in this pretty heart-shaped cake is whipped cream, which replaces butter as the fat and gives the cake an airy texture. Not in the mood for love, just chocolate? This cake can also be made in a standard 9-inch round cake pan.
Recipe and photo used with permission of Tish Boyle, author of The Cake Book (John Wiley & Sons, 2006).
Position oven rack in center of oven. Preheat oven to 350°F. Trace pan on parchment paper; cut out. Grease pan; line bottom of pan with parchment heart; grease paper.
For cake, combine chocolate and water in medium stainless steel bowl; place bowl over simmering water in medium saucepan. Heat, stirring frequently, until chocolate is completely melted and mixture is smooth. Set aside; cool to room temperature.
In mixer bowl, whisk together eggs, sugar and salt. Set bowl over simmering water in medium saucepan (making sure bowl doesn't touch water); heat, whisking constantly, until eggs are warm, 1-2 minutes. Place bowl on mixer stand; beat with whisk attachment on high speed until mixture triples in volume, about 3 minutes.
In clean mixer bowl, with clean whisk attachment, beat heavy cream until firm peaks form. Gently fold cooled chocolate into egg mixture; fold chocolate egg mixture into whipped cream. Turn into prepared pan.
Place pan in water bath and bake 45-53 minutes or until toothpick inserted into center comes out clean. Place pan on cooling rack; let cake cool 25 minutes. Run sharp knife around edge of pan to loosen; carefully invert cake onto wire rack. Cool to room temperature. Refrigerate at least 2 hours.
To make glaze, bring cream to a boil. Remove from heat and add chocolate; stir until chocolate is completely melted and glaze is smooth. Stir in vanilla. Cover surface with plastic wrap; cool about 10 minutes. Place chilled cake on cake circle; set on cooling rack. Spread raspberry jam evenly over top and sides of cake. Pour warm chocolate glaze on top of cake; using clean spatula, spread evenly over top and side, covering completely. Refrigerate cake at least 30 minutes.
Place white chocolate in small stainless steel bowl; place bowl over simmering water in saucepan. Heat, stirring frequently, until chocolate is completely melted. Remove from heat. Color chocolate with icing color to desired pink tone. Place colored chocolate in parchment bag; snip tiny hole in bottom. Remove cake from refrigerator; drizzle with pink chocolate. Refrigerate cake at least 20 minutes to set chocolate. Let cake stand at room temperature 30 minutes before serving.
Can be stored in refrigerator, loosely covered, up to 5 days.
Serves 10.

Then Cagliostro was called, but almost as a matter of form, and dismissed immediately.
Cagliostro started, as if the question had roused him from a reverie.
Ten years later we shall hear more of this couple under the name of Cagliostro.
The king remained silent, and Cagliostro buried his head in his hands.
He was actually charged with being a sorcerer, like Cagliostro, an accusation that reads very strange in the Nineteenth Century.
"Oh, that will be needless for you, madame," said Cagliostro.
And Cagliostro pronounced these words in so thrilling a voice that every one was struck with horror.
She left the room, and Cagliostro was about to follow her when Richelieu stopped him.
Had not Cagliostro predicted some such fate to Gilbert for Mirabeau?
"Let us speak of something else," said Cagliostro, sitting down.

Mother's Day Warning: Beware of Flowers from Mexico
On Mother's Day weekend, those who haven't already bought a gift are scrambling to find one.
And in South Texas, it's not unusual for people to cross the border to buy plants and flowers for the special day.
"It gets really heavy and busier around this time of year," said public affairs liaison for the U.S. Customs and Border Protection at the Brownsville port of entry, Eddie Perez. "Mother's Day is a time that people like to get their moms, sisters, and grandmothers flowers and plants...and across the border they may be cheaper."
Specially trained agricultural specialist check personal and commercial importation of flowers year-round, Perez said.
"We do it to make sure [the flowers and plants] they don't have any pests, insects or signs of diseases on them," Perez said.
We try and get the word out on the certain types of flowers that are prohibited from crossing, but if anyone is unsure, we ask that they check our website for a list, Perez said.
"If a pest is not known to be in the United States is introduced through one of these flowers or plants that could wreak havoc on the agriculture industry."

Managing anger is another form of controlling your autonomic nervous and limbic systems. It begins with education, so you can learn how those systems work in your body. Then, some techniques to intervene and change the course of bodily and emotional reactions. The most rewarding part comes afterwards, when a person can allow the experience of other emotional states as well, for this is when they really develop.

Each anger management session provides easy to learn strategies to relax and calm the mind and body. Through hypnotherapy and cognitive/ behavioral restructuring and NLP, new patterns are created at a neural level that changes your belief system and lead to permanent change. Anger management Sessions are 45 minutes. Strategies can be applied in personal or professional relationships.

Using a Solution Focused Approach, I work with you to determine what strategies have worked in the past and how you can best replicate those experiences to overcome times of anger. I believe that you already have the skills necessary to manage your anger, however, you may not be aware of them due to always focusing on the problem rather than solutions.

Bexar Deputy Shoots Motorist to Death
A Bexar County Sheriff's Deputy shot and killed a motorist in northeast Bexar County this morning, in a case which remains under investigation, 1200 WOAI news reports.
Sheriff's spokesman Paul Berry says it began with an 'altercation' between the deputy and the motorist about 5AM at North Loop 1604 and Lookout Road.
At some point in the altercation, the deputy pulled his sidearm and shot the man dead.
"We do not know at this time what led to the shooting and why it escalated from an altercation to a shooting, but that is being investigated right now," Berry told 1200 WOAI's Morgan Montalvo.
Indications from officials on the scene indicated that the deputy told officials that the victim pulled a weapon and shot at him, but Berry said that cannot be confirmed.
Live Oak EMS pronounced the civilian dead at the scene, Berry said.
The deputy is being questioned.

Sentencing in Rocky River cyanide fish kill
(Cleveland) - A Strongsville company and the company owner's wife were ordered to pay more than $330,000 Thursday for their roles in the dumping of a drum of liquid cyanide into a storm drain that flowed into the Rocky River. It resulted in the death of more than 30,000 fish.
Kennedy Mint, Inc. was ordered to make a community service payment of $300,000 to the Cleveland Metroparks. The company previously pleaded guilty to violating of the Clean Water Act.
Teresina Montorsi, 74, was sentenced to one year of probation and ordered to pay a fine of $5,000. She previously pleaded guilty to obstruction of justice.
"Clean, fresh water is Ohio's greatest natural resource," said Steven M. Dettelbach, United States Attorney for the Northern District of Ohio. "We are satisfied that we were able to determine who put the cyanide into the river and killed tens of thousands of fish. The restitution from this case will be used to restock the river with fish, so that people can again enjoy the natural beauty of the Rocky River."
"We are pleased that the river will be restocked with fish," Ohio Attorney General Mike DeWine said. "This case demonstrates the devastating consequences that a single dumping can have on the environment. We will continue to work with our Task Force partners to investigate and prosecute violations of environmental protection laws and those who attempt to cover up such violations."
Company owner Renato Montorsi was indicted last year, but those charges were dismissed after he was found to be incompetent to stand trial.
Renato and Teresina Montorsi are married and live in Grafton, Ohio, according to public records.
Kennedy Mint will also pay restitution of $30,893 -- $1 for every fish killed by the illegal discharge. The money will be paid to the Ohio Department of Natural Resources and used to restock the river with steelhead trout under the terms of the plea agreement.

AT&T Invests More than $20 Million in Hawaii Wireless and Wireline Networks in First Half of 2013
Investments Strengthen Nation's Fastest and Most Reliable 4G LTE Network, Largest 4G Network Project Velocity IP Investments Result in New Cell Sites and Distributed Antenna Systems to Enhance Network Performance Across Hawaii
Honolulu, Hawaii, August 21, 2013
Blazing speeds. Great reliability. Broad coverage. Excellent overall performance. That's what Hawaii residents want from their mobile Internet, and it's exactly what AT&T* is delivering with an array of network upgrades completed in the first half of 2013.
In the first half of 2013, AT&T invested more than $20 million in its wireless and wired networks in Hawaii. The investments included deployment of new macro cell sites and Distributed Antenna Systems across the state as a part of AT&T's Project Velocity IP, a three-year investment plan announced last fall to expand and enhance its IP broadband networks. The company also expanded and enhanced its 4G LTE network, which provides ultra-fast mobile Internet speeds, and deployed new Wi-Fi hot spots.
These investments help to ensure that Hawaii residents continue to receive the best possible experience over the AT&T network, whether at home, at work or on the go. The great performance of AT&T's 4G LTE network, now the nation's fastest and most reliable, continues to be validated:
- AT&T now has the most reliable 4G LTE network. According to independent third-party data, AT&T has the highest success rate for delivering mobile content across nationwide 4G LTE networks.**
- Meanwhile, our 4G LTE service was recognized as having faster average download and upload speeds than any of our competitors in PCWorld/TechHive's most recent 20-market speed tests – the second consecutive year that AT&T has ranked 1st overall. PCWorld/TechHive also ranked AT&T's as the fastest combination of 3G and 4G services in the 20 cities it tested.***
- And AT&T was named America's fastest 4G LTE network in PC Magazine's 2013 Fastest Mobile Networks 30-market study – sweeping the top rankings in all six U.S. regions from coast to coast: Northeast, Southeast, North-Central, South-Central, Northwest and Southwest.****
"Fast, reliable connectivity is essential to both quality of life and competitiveness at work," said Dan Youmans, State President, AT&T Hawaii. "AT&T's network investment supports Hawaii's economic health and residents' connectivity whether at home, at the office or on vacation. With the expansion of mobile Internet service, we're working to ensure that Hawaii consumers and businesses remain at the leading edge of broadband services."
The 2013 year-to-date network investment builds on the more than $110 million that AT&T has invested in its Hawaii wireless and wired networks from 2010 through 2012.
AT&T 4G LTE is now available in Honolulu. Nationwide, more than 225 million Americans have access to AT&T 4G LTE service. By year-end 2013, AT&T expects to cover nearly 270 million people and 400 markets with its 4G LTE network.
For more information about AT&T's coverage in Hawaii or anywhere in the United States, consumers can visit the AT&T Coverage Viewer. For updates on the AT&T wireless network, please visit the AT&T network news page.

By Dirk G. LangeHuman beings want religion not God. Or, to put it slightly differently (and perhaps in a more nuanced manner!), they all too easily equate religion with a very particular, culturally determined, idea of God. They name their religion – their rites, their laws, their stories – divine or Bible-based. They find mystical origins for their laws turning those laws into unquestionable truths.Watch the Video: What Contaminates a Life?Efrain Agosto, a Professor at … [Read more...]
Lip Service – But Where Is the Heart?
August 30, 2012 by Leave a Comment


text:
Think of it: The entire world's collected mythology and folklore is waiting to be mined for fictional gold. That's what makes urban fantasy the most exciting genre to read and write for me. The potential for supernatural shenanigans in the present seems infinite. To narrow the focus a bit and keep myself sane, when I sat down to write Hounded, the first book of The Iron Druid Chronicles, I made myself a list of what I wanted to contribute to the genre. I wanted an unusual hero, easily distinguishable from others; I wanted to give man's best friend a voice, and I wanted it to be a big best friend, like an Irish wolfhound; I wanted a little old lady sipping whiskey on her porch, some gratuitous allusions to Shakespeare, and a beautiful, (mostly) normal girl in there with freckles and strawberry lip gloss; and I wanted a whole lot of gods and goddesses trying to survive in a secular world, especially from some pantheons we don't hear about all that often. Also, because they kind of scare me, no leather pants.
The Iron Druid Chronicles follows the adventures of Atticus O'Sullivan, a 2,100-year-old Druid who's discovered that it's the little things in life that make it worth living, and he can continue to enjoy those things so long as he hides from the Irish gods who want to kill him. Unfortunately, once he decides to take a stand, he draws the attention of all sorts of beings who thought the last real Druid had passed from this world long ago.
Part of the great fun of writing a character this old is figuring out where Atticus was during all of history's great events and whether he might have had a hand in them. But the pith, the core of what makes him so interesting to me is how he handles outliving all his friends and loved ones: How does he hang on to his humanity when his lifespan is greater than that of every other human?
The Iron Druid Chronicles still has plenty of familiar urban fantasy elements, but I hope readers will enjoy this very different hero who can talk to both gods and dogs, yet loves nothing so much as conversing with friends over a fine plate of fish and chips and a pint to wash it down.

This hands free soap dispenser earned The Best rating from the Hammacher Schlemmer Institute because it dispenses adjustable amounts and was the easiest use. Unlike lesser models that only dispensed one amount, The Best model allows users to select from three amounts of soap to ensure the preferred amount is dispensed. The Best model's infrared sensor triggers the soap to dispense as soon as hands are under the spout and it did not drip after dispensing. Unlike lesser models that were difficult to open and only held 6 oz. of soap, The Best Hands Free Soap Dispenser's lid opens with the touch of a button and its large reservoir holds 13 1/2 oz. of soap. Requires four AA batteries. 8 1/2" H x 7" D. (12 oz.)

I bought this for my husband as he likes to use dish soap to wash his hands in the kitchen. Each time he uses it he comments on how pleased he is with the soap dispenser vice the last one that I purchased. It has only been a few weeks, but already I can tell from his constant approval that I am glad that we finally have a dispenser that works.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

I love the product, but the soap doesn't dispense at first time you waive your hand past the sensor. After first use, it takes three times before the soap is dispensed. Not long, just a bit annoying. Still love the dispenser!

Kurt Cobain death-scene note Mocks Courtney Love
Seattle Police are still sharing details about Kurt Cobain's death more than 20 years after the Nirvana frontman committed suicide. The latest piece of information obtained by CBS News is a cropped image of what authorities say is a note found in Cobain's wallet at the time of his death. The handwritten message takes aim at the rocker's wife Courtney Love, mocking the couple's wedding vows and accusing her of siphoning his money for "doping and whoring." The rest of the undated note isn't visible in the police photo.
The Seattle Police Department made the decision to review the Cobain case last month in anticipation of the media attention surrounding the 20th anniversary of his death. But the case was never reopened, and detectives said the new information they found provided no evidence that would change the ruling of death by self-inflicted gunshot.

I am having the same problem, I know this is a very very old thread, but was there ever a fix found, or an explanation as to why this is happening? I am running bt5r3 64 bit gnome in virtal machine. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Same issue. Multiple pc's and with different versions of BT 5r3 (64 bit KDE and Gnome have the same issue). I've tried installing it as Main OS, dual booting, in a VM using virtualbox with same issue. I even drove over to a friends house and installed on a VM on one of his pc's but had same problem. One thing I've noticed is this is only effecting new installs. My friend is having no problems updating his BT.

Why the Fuss? The Call to Arms against UN Rapporteur Richard Falk for Alluding to Gaps in the 9/11 Official Story
by Elizabeth Woodworth
A former Princeton international law professor has been condemned by the UN Secretary General and the U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations for alluding to "an apparent cover-up" of the events of September 11th, 2001.
On January 11, 2011, UN Special Envoy to Palestine Richard Falk posted on his personal blog an article entitled "Interrogating the Arizona Killings from a Safe Distance."[1]
Dr. Falk made a tangential point in his blog-post that governments too often abuse their authority by treating "awkward knowledge as a matter of state secrets".
To illustrate the point, he referred to gaps and contradictions in the official account of the 9/11 attacks, which have been documented in the scholarly works of Dr. David Ray Griffin, a professor emeritus of philosophy of religion and theology.
"What seems most disturbing about the 9/11 controversy is the widespread aversion by government and media to the evidence that suggests, at the very least, the need for an independent investigation that proceeds with no holds barred," wrote Falk.
On January 20th, executive director Hillel Neuer of UN Watch, a European NGO, called upon UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon to condemn the remarks made by Falk, and to fire him, claiming that Falk had "endorsed the conspiracy theory that the 9/11 terrorist attacks were orchestrated by the U.S. government and not Al Qaeda terrorists." [2]
On January 24th, in a reply to Hillel Neuer, Vijay Nambiar, Ban Ki-moon's Chief of Staff, responded that the Secretary-General "condemns these remarks. He has repeatedly stated his view that any such suggestion is preposterous ... and an affront to the memory of the more than 3,000 people who died in the attack."[3]
The US Ambassador to the UN, Susan Rice, called for Falk's removal, stating that "Mr. Falk's comments are despicable and deeply offensive, and I condemn them in the strongest terms." [4]
Surely, in light of what Falk actually said, these indignant cries on behalf of the victims seem more than a little apoplectic.
If Falk's suggestions were so "preposterous" and "offensive", they might have been dismissed as the ravings of a madman.
So why did officials bring out their cannons to shoot at a sparrow?
Well, turning to the work of Professor Griffin we find that there were 115 omissions and distortions in the 9/11 Commission Report, though Falk did not, in his brief remarks, provide details. [5]
A search of the Internet reveals 12 professional organizations calling for a new investigation, including Architects and Engineers for 9/11 Truth (with over 1,400 professional members), Firefighters for 9/11 Truth, Intelligence Officers for 9/11 Truth, Lawyers for 9/11 Truth, Medical Professionals for 9/11 Truth, Pilots for 9/11 Truth, Political Leaders for 9/11 Truth, Military Officers for 9/11 Truth, and Scientists for 9/11 Truth.
In August, 2005, the New York Times printed the oral testimonies of 118 firefighters and emergency workers who reported stunning, graphic evidence of enormous explosions, including mysterious blasts in the deep sub-basements of the buildings long before the towers fell.[6]
More recently, a nine-author peer-reviewed study, which showed that the World Trade Center dust appeared to contain residue of explosive material (nanothermite), made headlines for the first week of February 2010 in major Danish newspapers. [7]
This news never reached the North American media.
A December 2010 poll by the prestigious Emnid Institute showed that 89.5% of Germans doubt the US official story about the September 11th attacks.[8]
The 9/11 commissioners themselves, in a 2008 op-ed piece to the New York Times, bemoaned the withholding of witness evidence to the 9/11 Commission by the CIA: "What we do know is that government officials decided not to inform a lawfully constituted body, created by Congress and the president, to investigate one the greatest tragedies to confront this country. We call that obstruction." [9]
Perhaps this sparrow is worth a cannon or two.
In other words, was Falk attacked so strongly to try to make people fear suggesting in public even the possibility that the official story is problematic?

Christ in the Storm on the Sea of Galilee
Oil on canvas, 160 x 128 cm
Genre: European Art, Paintings
Location: Dutch Room
Accession Number: P21s24
Missing. Historically located in the Dutch Room; stolen in 1990.
Signed on rudder: Rembrant. f / 1633
Rembrandt's most striking narrative painting in America, Christ in the Storm on the Sea of Galilee, is also his only painted seascape. Dated 1633, it was made shortly after Rembrandt moved to Amsterdam from his native Leiden, when he was establishing himself as the city's leading painter of portraits and historical subjects. The detailed rendering of the scene, the figures' varied expressions, the relatively polished brushwork, and the bright coloring are characteristic of Rembrandt's early style. Eighteenth-century critics like Arnold Houbraken often preferred this early period to Rembrandt's later, broader, and less descriptive manner.
The biblical scene pitches nature against human frailty – both physical and spiritual. The panic-stricken disciples struggle against a sudden storm, and fight to regain control of their fishing boat as a huge wave crashes over its bow, ripping the sail and drawing the craft perilously close to the rocks in the left foreground. One of the disciples succumbs to the sea's violence by vomiting over the side. Amidst this chaos, only Christ, at the right, remains calm, like the eye of the storm. Awakened by the disciples' desperate pleas for help, he rebukes them: "Why are ye fearful, O ye of little faith?" and then rises to calm the fury of wind and waves. Nature's upheaval is both cause and metaphor for the terror that grips the disciples, magnifying the emotional turbulence and thus the image's dramatic impact.
The painting showcases the young Rembrandt's ability not only to represent a sacred history, but also to seize our attention and immerse us in an unfolding pictorial drama. For greatest immediacy, he depicted the event as if it were a contemporary scene of a fishing boat menaced by a storm. The spectacle of darkness and light formed by the churning seas and blackening sky immediately attracts our attention. We then become caught up in the disciples' terrified responses, each meticulously characterized to encourage and sustain prolonged, empathetic looking. Only one figure looks directly out at us as he steadies himself by grasping a rope and holds onto his cap. His face seems familiar from Rembrandt's self-portraits, and as his gaze fixes on ours we recognize that we have become imaginative participants in the painter's vivid dramatization of a disaster Christ is about to avert.

Reviews of this property
Everything worked just fine!
Hat alles prima geklappt!
Reviews for this host's other properties
Ha sido una estancia muy agradable. El apartamento esta muy amplio y ese estilo caracteristico de los años 80. Está muy cerca de la playa y dispone de una gran piscina. Lo mejor de todo ha sido la amabilidad y disponibilidad de Susana. Inmejorable!!!
Sitio espectacular, de postal.
Susana la chica que nos recibió un encanto, super atenta con nosotros.
El apartamento muy bonito, limpio y muy soleado, vistas al mar.
Ideal para ir con niños, tiene una piscina comunitaria muy grande.
La única pega es que cogimos fin de semana de San Juan y el viernes toda la noche con petardos y fuegos artificiales.
Alles TOP verlaufen, gerne wieder
El apartamento es muy acogedor, limpio y cómodo. Es pequeño pero perfecto para dos o tres personas, tal cual aparece en las fotos.
Die Schlüssel- und Wohnungsübergabe verlief sehr unkompliziert und positiv. Der Gesamteindruck der Wohnung war ziemlich negativ. Die Küche konnte man aufgrund übelster Gerüche und dreckigen Zustand nicht benutzen (sah auf den Bildern freundlich und hell aus). Die Zimmer waren sehr klein und die Bettwäsche schien nicht wirklich sauber. Die Badezimmer waren in gutem und sauberen Zustand. Es gab auch Handtücher. Im Doppelschlafzimmer musste die Flüssigkeit der Klimaanlage, welche in einen Eimer floss, alle paar Stunden selber geleert werden. Die Wohnung ist zudem sehr hellhörig. Wir können die Wohnung nicht vorbehaltlos weiterempfehlen. Das Preis- Leistungsverhältnis stimmt überhaupt nicht.
The flat is like in the pictures, so it's clean. The location is perfect! It is near to the beach and the metro isn't so far away (5 minutes walk). The Wifi was realy good and fast :) A little supermarket is next to the apartment. We will see us again !
Kind regards from Switzerland
Okey standard. Allthough there was just 2 actual beds, the doublebeds are just thin madresses on wooden planks. The bathroom were really tight, but for a shorter stay its ok. No hot water the firts 2 days.
La zona dell'alloggio è tranquilla e ben collegata con i mezzi pubblici, peccato che le coincidenze dei mezzi devi scoprirli tu perché non sono fornite. L'abitazione è accogliente come descritto e come si vede dalle foto. I servizi complementari (necessario per igiene, lavaggio, pulizia) nonché lenzuola e asciugamani non sono stati soddisfacenti. Nel complesso ci tornerei.
The girl that received us, Joanna, was very nice and punctual. We had no problem at all receiving the keys, everything was fine and the apartment is near the Tram and the Metro Station, very nice building and neighborhood, as a comment that we saw here, you can eat very good and not so expensive right across the street in the restaurant "Grillo". What we didn't like is that, in the first advertisement was not announced the deposit fee and how much was it, and a cleaning fee of 60 euros either. When we wanted to use the cups, they were not washed well even lipstick was on the edge of one of them and the 4 small ones that we needed were with stains of coffee in the base like they just stored them dirty. But the apartment was very clean and very comfortable and I would recommend it.

Pittman, William Sidney
Birth Year : 1875
Death Year : 1958
William S. Pittman was the son-in-law of Booker T. Washington. He was born in Alabama and was a graduate of Tuskegee Institute (1897) [now Tuskegee University] and Drexel Institute (1900) [now Drexel University], where he earned his architecture and mechanical drawing degrees. He would become one of the most accomplished architects in the United States. In 1909, Pittman designed two buildings at Kentucky Normal and Industrial Institute for Colored Persons [now Kentucky State University]: the Trade School Building and Hume Hall, which is still standing and houses the President's Office. The Trade School Building, renamed Hathaway Hall during President Atwood's tenure, was used for mechanical and trades classes, workshops and exhibits, and the printing office; it also housed an electric dynamo that provided light to the campus. The building was razed in 1967 and replaced with a new Hathaway Hall. At the completion of his work at Kentucky Normal and Industrial Institute for Colored Persons, Pittman received a letter of endorsement from the Kentucky Superintendent of Education. Pictures of the buildings and more information are available in the Kentucky Normal and Industrial Institute Annual Catalogues and the R. B. Atwood Papers at CESKAA, Kentucky State University.

Slave Built Building (Lexington,KY)
When the National Conference for Community and Justice (NCCJ) moved into their new office in downtown Lexington, KY, in 2000, the organization wanted the building to be recognized as a standing memorial to slave-built architecture. The 200-year-old building was constructed by slaves owned by Kentucky Legislator Henry Clay. Along the baseboard in the front entrance of the building is a gap that gives a view of the bars and the dirt floor in the small cramped basement, where the slaves may have been kept.

One of these days, I'm going to write something nice about football officials.
Sorry, this isn't that day.
Watching the NFL game between the Jaguars and Titans on Sunday, I clearly saw Maurice Jones-Drew scamper into the end zone on a run.
Incredibly, the refs on the field wanted to spot the ball on the 1.
The replay clearly showed the score, so Jags coach Jack DelRio challenged.
Even more incredibly, the call on the field was upheld.
Which brings me to another point.
Why does the NFL employ replay officials in every stadium, anyway?
