I was out this past week, quite a few nice looking SWs out. I pulled over and picked up a young white SW with a great body, wearing jean shorts and tight top with cleavage. As she got in the first thing she said was, "do you have $100? I told her that we'll get comfortable first before we get to the money. She got on her phone and texted her handler that she had hopped into a ride. We got half a block before she wanted to know what was up. When SWs lead with money then it's usually a preeminent sign of a bad date, they usually rush through the experience and it's generally just not good. She never smiled and had a cool demeanor, was all business and only about the cash. I told her that I wanted all BB service and she said told me that she "usually doesn't" provide that. She then asked for $400 for BB service. I said absolutely no way and she wanted out of the vehicle right then and there, no driving back toward the stroll, she just wanted out. I slowed and didn't even get to the curb before she had the door open and hopped out while it was still moving. I went back to the stroll and saw a lot of young black men hanging around and talking to the girls, there has definitely been a rise in the presence of pimps out on Aurora since BP has gone down. I scooped up a nice BSW and she quoted me $500 for a half-hour BB session. I didn't even answer, I turned around and let her out. There were a few other really hot SWs out but I didn't feel like going through the ridiculous negotiation with each of them. I figured it was time to give up until next time.

AA? Is that it?
Are there any other strolls that are active in the South Seattle, Tukwila, Seatac, Renton, Kent, West Seattle, Burien area? AA is a little too far for comfort.

Trolling AA after finishing flex. Saw a couple good looking SW. Mostly 125th and up. Holly (the BSW WITH GREEN HAIR, is staying with her friend on a corner, haven't got a chance to pick her up. A BSW with short hair, white tight top and jeans. A very cute one but doesn't seem like paying attention to the traffic. A young red hair girl with sporty t shirt and short by the arco gas station, not to sure if she is one of the WSW due to the clothes and the pure looking face but she is one of the best looking of the day.
So, how to catch their attention in the day time? I drove by and gave out eye contact. Even turning into the street in front of them but they seemed like they don't give a f**k. LOL.

AA and. 137th. NE 145th WSW.
Has anyone seen the smoking hot MILF WSW and. 137th. NE 145th WSW after nine pm on M or a Tuesday. I did a drive through on Thursday and she was out. She was stunning, dressed in a black summer dress, high heels, long blonde hair. She looked like the mom on the Kardashians. From her looks and demeanor, she is a total amateur. She is usually alone, but on Thursday she was with another SW. No tats and super clean. PM me.

Friday Report
I was out from 1:30 until about 4:30 while running errands.
Around 1:30, there were a little less than a dozen SW between 85th and 145th. Most were ho-hum (meaning uninspiring, not referencing anything else. LOL).
There was one super-cute WSW named Sarah. I kept trying to get her attention and finally was able to catch her eye. We didn't get to talk much because I was now running late and I wanted to ask if she's be around in about 90 minutes (around 3:30) or if I could get her digits. She offered a quickie, but I had to be somewhere miles away by 2:30 and it was already after 2.
She had redish hair, white tank top and white shorts. Super body from what I could tell and and seemed in good shape, contrasting the overweight girls on the track. She didn't have any visible tattoos or look tweaked out, but once I saw her up close, her teeth were an obvious sign of a probable addiction. I kind of lost the mood, but had to get to my appointment.
About 90 minutes later, all new crew was out. A couple cuties for sure, but also a couple older women (late 30's to mid 40's) who were wearing clothes not that flattering for the tummy and legs they had.
A couple BSW were down near 130th, but traveling in pairs and it makes it tougher to get the one you're interested in seeing up close. One was so-so, but the other looked cute.
I had to run more errands so, I drove south toward 85th, but made the loop a few times because. Well, I saw a couple interesting girls. There was one WSW who nearly broke my heart from sadness. You could tell she was new and really scared. I suspect she could have used a rescuer and I considered stopping to ask if she would just like an escape option to go home to her family. I didn't see her on other passes, but know she shouldn't have been out there. I did see another girl closer to 85th and she gave me a look-see, but I was on the opposite side of the street. There were too many SUV's with fuzz to swing around quickly, but I did try to be discrete. By the time I could loop, she crossed to the other side. Another attempt to loop around and looks like she must have found someone. Damn, she looked like a college girl. Clean, cute and not apparently strung out.

SWs often are aggressive and straight forward. If money is not flowing they'll approach you. As soon as they know they aren't making money from you, communication ends.

Holly, not Hallie, beautiful green-haired BSW on AA
So, I was wrong, it is Holly, not Hallie strollin ' along AA with her green hair, smooth legs and nice ass.
I know that now because she just approached me as I was sitting down at the Teriyaki restaurant across from the car dealership. She stopped by my table (I was only customer in the place) and asked me my name even though we have chatted before. I said, "It's Hallie, right?" and she replied that it was "Holly, like Hollywood."
She then asked me if I wanted a "date" and I told her that I didn't have a car because it is getting fixed across the street. I didn't tell her that I just come from Lazy Cat Massage down the street, where I had just received a handjob from Meghan, who is amazingly young and cute with a tremendous smile and an even better rack! Not sure that I could give her a ride at this point, even if I had a ride!
Thought that Holly was being a little aggressive, even though I said hello first after she made the obvious "I'll fuck you for money" stare. Can't a man even sit down for a Teriyaki lunch without a hot chick coming up to the table and asking him for sex? What's the world coming to these days?
Asking guys for "dates" when she approaches (she said the same thing into my passenger window the first time I saw her a few weeks ago) makes me nervous. Too obvious. I guess subtlety isn't her thing! Probably better at choking down cock in someone's backseat...

But have all those things at a minimum before straying from the 'do you need a ride' conversation.
In all situation, but especially when picking up SWs, if your gut starts telling you to bail then bail. Something's not right.

As for LE safety, Street Troller's comments are good I think and much appreciated. One thing I do is make sure the girl is in the car and I'm driving before we talk business. I wouldn't think an undercover would hop into a car like that for safety reasons.

She isn't blonde anymore I thought I was picking up a new thick WSW (Pac hwy in fife) she got in the car before I realized it was her. Looks way better with the dark hair. Something wring with her voice but BBBJ no CIM and pussy still tight as ever. She said she night be heading north in next couple days.

It is riskier from the perspective of being seen by the police. They're out there and sometimes they hide well. Vice is out there too and they don't just notice the girls. The biggest thing is to be cautious and careful about how you make the pick up. Don't pull over right on Aurora next to an obvious SW, pull off onto the nearest side street a little bit of a distance from the corner. Most SWs prefer that you do that as well. I avoid small empty parking lots right on Aurora, the Firestone lot comes to mind. Sometimes the Oaktree plaza will have security in their lot, the minute you park they'll pull up and ask what's going on. In my opinion side streets are always better because you're not on private property. But if the police do stop you, refuse to talk. It's not illegal to give someone a ride even if they know the girl is working. If they've got something on you they'll arrest you immediately, otherwise they'll be asking questions hoping that you talk your way into trouble.
But I also think that incalls are riskier from a rob perspective. Nearly all of my bad experiences have been at incalls, be they private or hotel / motels. The girls are in more control in their environment and they might have people around the room or nearby rooms. It's harder for an SW to rob you in your car or set you up to have a boyfriend rob you.
This is all my opinion, you have to do what is comfortable for you. For a long time I visited and hung around the strolls in various cities and just watched until I was comfortable.

Rock, I did see Nicole a few times, but the blonde I saw was much taller. Maybe I'll hit up Nicole next time up I'm up there.
As far as the one in the red dress, should have been quicker to turn around. *sigh*.

About David C.Close
View Full Profile
Whether you want to be a weekend warrior who plays around the campfire, or someone who wants to study at a professional or advanced level, we can make that happen!!!! My unique approach to teaching guitar will have you playing guitar on the first day. No joke.
About David
My name is David, and I am a music teacher of many different subjects. These include guitar, piano, bass, ukulele, recording, music theory, production, composition and film music composition.
All styles, and all ages. Classical, Rock, Alternative, Slide Guitar, Blues, Jazz, and more!
I have a Masters Degree in music from The University of Melbourne in Australia, as well as having the distinction of a Bachelors Degree in Music from Cornish College of the Arts in Seattle.
Hello! :)
Many times a student will come to me after having been with another teacher for some time,.. they express to me that the other instructor did not teach them what they wanted to learn, nor did they achieve the result that they wanted.
The instructor perhaps had them mired in endless exercises and studies that were great
I find that when I get right down to the nitty gritty of playing, and show my students a song they love and know, and get them playing guitar by the end of the session that they are usually thrilled and excited.
In the end it makes them work harder and practice long because THEY ARE PLAYING MUSIC ON THE GUITAR!!!
Certainly exercises are of paramount importance, but when you can make that connection with a student and help them to relate to the guitar the exercises are ultimately easier to them, and the experience of playing guitar an enjoyable and less alienating task.
Grab your guitar and start today!! Let's get you playing TODAY!!!!
"I've been working with David for a couple of months, and it has been a great experience. I'm new to bass, with a little guitar experience--he quickly sized up what I knew and had me working on exercises and a great bass line that got me playing right away. He has been very flexible and accommodating of my schedule needs, and he gives plenty of positive and constructive feedback. I've been working in education for nearly 30 years, and I know a great teacher when I see one. David fits the bill, and I'm lucky to be working with him."
Rudy F., Principal
Middle School
"My son had been taking lessons for seven years and was losing interest. David's passion for music, knowledge of music theory, ability to read the student and know the best way to approach the lessons is exactly what my son needed. Along with his background in a wide variety of genres….classical, rock, jazz, etc. has made learning more exciting, resulting in a renewed interest."
Tammy S., University Place
"David is an outstanding instructor! My son is 5 years old and loves him. My son is occasionally a difficult child with his own special quirks, but David is so patient and observant and tailors the lessons as we go along week to week to keep my son engaged, encouraged and learning. I also have two younger children who must tag along to the lesson and even they are excited during the lessons and are already asking when they start their lessons! We will be starting at least one more child's lessons with him during this coming school year! He is great!"
Cherise H., Parkland
"Loving the relaxed atmosphere with David. Bargain prices for the one on one experience with such an awesome, educated and talented musician."
Raven R., Tacoma
"David is an amazing talent and provides me with much needed inspiration. In little over a year, I have learned a tremendous amount about nearly all styles of guitar, classical and lead guitar in particular. It's very helpful to have an awesome instructor who is extremely knowledgeable and very patient. His lesson plans are geared towards what I want to learn and the lessons that we work on cover all the techniques that are necessary to take my skills to the next level. He makes every lesson fun and he works with me until I am comfortable to move on."
Larry L., Gig Harbor
"David tailors each lesson dynamically to my own progression which has been great. Gauges progression and gives you things to work on before the next lesson. Highly recommend him!"
Kory J., Tacoma
"David has been our son's guitar instructor for the better part of a year. During that time we've appreciated his patient encouragement, especially during the early weeks of instruction.

"Where do I begin? I started with a guitar and a couple of chords...(A lot of desire but basically an empty canvas)." 'This was my life for a number of years until I met David.
Now I must first admit, I am ADD so teaching me and captivating my attention is no easy task...David not only broke through that barrier but opened the door to world of music I had aways felt and now suddenly I could touch.
If you posses the desire to learn and the drive to work...the sky is the limit."

"I am very happy with my decision to take lessons with David. In just 2 months I've gone from strumming some chords to understanding picking patterns, learning how to put together an entire song, and expanding my techniques. I am very surprised at how much technical skill I have been able to pick up in such a short period of time"
Marianne B., Tacoma
"I'm 46 years old and my only known talent is for overcomplicating things. I've always admired a good guitar player and wanted to learn to play myself--who doesn't?--but felt I didn't have the talent or just "couldn't do it." Then I found David and he said, 'Oh yes you can. Commit to 4 lessons up front and you'll see that you can.' I took the leap and sure enough, he had me playing blues riffs in less than one month. All I had to do was listen and do as he instructed me to and it all comes very naturally. There's no stress, just a whole lot of fun! If you're like me and you thought you couldn't play guitar, start with David and just have some fun with it. It's simple. You won't want to put the guitar down again!"
Dan D., Tacoma
I had been playing guitar for about 5 years and had only been self taught. I found myself completely stuck playing the same chords and not able to play riffs or solos at all. In my first lesson I was playing the blues with slides and hammer ons and pull offs. In a couple of lessons he had me soloing in different keys and playing riffs from guitar gods! He was able to teach me in a couple lessons what took me years trying to teach myself! He makes lessons so much fun because not only are you learning the music theory but he relates it to popular songs that you can practice along with. He also has so much knowledge in other aspects as well. He can teach you about music gear and amps or help you compose your own music. He caters to your style and taste in music and can teach you ANYTHING!
Ashley A.
I love guitar period, but it's overtly frustrating when you have no idea where to start, or how to play at all. I went through multiple guitar instructors trying to learn how to play and each of them weren't very specific, or didn't hone in on any one thing at a time so you could really start to get it down and process it. Then we happened to find David, and he was really what we were looking for. I started picking up chords like no other, It helped, and is helping tremendously. He goes into depth about the song,letting you comprehend it a little more, and ultimately learning it quicker and better.
Skye R., Tacoma WA
I have had 4 different Blues guitar Teacher in the last 6 months, getting nowhere as far as really playing some Blues until I ran across David. The other teachers just wanted me to learn the pentatonic scales, Major and Minor. That took a lot of boring weeks and I am sure I will need to know those scales but I just wanted someone to show / teach me Blues chords, related to Blues songs and the timing to the chord changes so I could start playing some kind of Blues. I have had 6 one hour lessons so far with David and I am playing the Blues. The first 4 hours Dave showed me a E, A, B7 blues chord progression with some step up and step down notes. The 2nd 2 hours Dave showed me a A, D9, A7,E9 Blues chords and Blues timing with slides.
I take one hour Lessons every Thursday and in 6 hours I am playing the Blues. I picked up the guitar about 6 months ago, started teaching myself and not really getting anywhere. I am not a fast learner, about average in learning something new. Now I set a home Learning my guitar and polishing the Blues songs that David has taught me, starting to get FUN.
Les F. Tacoma, Wa.
Working with David has made me focus on areas of my chops that needed fine tuning. He provides the basic exercises and tools that, when practiced enough in a zen-like manner, clarifies your understanding of movement on the fret board, and makes you sound a bit more professional. Questions regarding speed, theory, notation, composition, and even string size, are ready for answer with David, which is what keeps me working with him. From begining, to intermediate, to professional levels, if you're looking to improve your chops, Dave's your guy.
Frank L., Seattle WA
I had tried many different instructors and had become very frustrated with trying to learn guitar. Within one lesson David had me playing ACDC and RUSH! David just has a way of explaining things so that they make sense and doesn't waste any time getting right down to the nuts and bolts of guitar. A lot of other instructors spend alot of time getting you 'ready' to play guitar, but with David we got down to playing guitar right away!
Stevie J., Olympia WA
"I started receiving lessons from David a few years ago, to improve my guitar abilities. I always used to tell people, "I've been playing guitar since the Eighties, though you would never know it." At the time I started, I knew some Metal riffs, three-chord Punk Rock progressions, and simple 12-bar blues. Though I took two guitar classes and first-year Music Theory in college in the early Nineties, the only scale I could say I knew was "blues pentatonic," emphasis on the quotation marks.
My goal was to relearn Modes/Scales, and brush up on theory, so that I could write more complex material. David taught me that, and so much more. Over these few years, I've learned Progressive Rock, Fusion/Jazz, and even some Country styles, as well as a great deal more about Metal and, yes, even Punk from David. I can play leads and solos with much more proficiency, in timing with the rhythm, and more tonally correct, than I ever could before. He has also helped me read music better, construct more professional-sounding compositions, and has started me on my own path to produce my own recordings, from recommending and using recording software, to capturing dynamics with mic placement, to mixing the rough takes to get the most out of the sound.
For a musician of any level or caliber, having an instructor like David is a true asset--for he has the knowledge and skills to take an entry-level musician every step of the way to becoming a professional performer, recorder, mixer, engineer, and producer. The only limit to the lesson's potential is your own level of determination, which David quite expertly helps you to improve with every session. Even if your goal is to simply learn to play one song on one instrument--and David teaches MANY instruments--he will have you playing that song like the musician who wrote it before you realize it--as long as you stick with your practice between lessons. That part's up to you!"

I have been an active performing musician in Pittsburgh for over ten years now. I am extremely versatile and have played in many varying styles of bands. I am not strict on a specific way to learn the different aspects of playing the guitar. There are many ways to approach the proper way to play whatever songs or styles you gravitate towards. I am well versed in blues, rock, metal, jazz, country, and folk styles. I am currently studying music composition at University of Pittsburgh, while at the same time playing in an original Punk/Metal band and the Pitt small Jazz ensemble. Whatever it is you are trying to learn on the guitar I can provide with the proper information and explanations to help you get there.

About Shai
I began as a classical guitar player, studying traditional classical pieces and applying them to my guitar. During that time I began to explore and became drawn to rock music, virtuoso guitarists, and heavy metal. My fascination with the electric guitar, the techniques, the speed and all the things that comes with it are still pulling me in.
Later on in life I fell in love with Flamenco, specifically Paco De Lucia.
I learned his songs and combined it with my own music while studying fusion and finger picking styles; every style I liked, I learned, I mastered, but I know, as much as I teach, I also learn.
Today I play in LA and Israel, I produce projects, record guitar tracks and songs, and teac
As a teacher I will challenge you! I will give you multiple exercises and lots of homework.

My goal is not so much teaching one how to play an instrument, but more broadly, to help one cultivate their own living musicality. My own areas of practice, study, and specialization are in free improvisation, sound art/Sonic sculpture, conceptual performance, and songwriting/composition. I've explored a vast number of different styles and genre. Jazz, classical, folk and bluegrass, spirituals, blues, punk rock, contemporary ghospel, electronic dance and ambient, to name a few... I love working with kids, I love teaching any age any skill level, I promise to listen, and fine tune our lesson to fit your specific personality and needs.
About Andrew
I've worked with students ranging from age 3 to age 62 in the year or so I've been tutoring. I've taught piano mostly ,but am more technically proficient with guitar(electic/acoustic/classical).
I'm a songwriter and recording/performing artist, my style is very ecclectic and inspired by anything from classical, jazz, avant garde, to pop and folk music. I'm confident and versatile. Im comfortable playing or even performing with most instruments. It's taken alot of practice, reasearch, experimentation, and collaboration but over time musc has give
I believe in the cultivation of a living musicality.
My approach emphasises the importance of process, exploration and discovery, as well as the study and analysis of traditional concepts. I propose, active listening to be the simplest form of composition. And as musicians an active ear is central, not only in practice, but generally, for creative evolution and innovation.
I've found the most effective methods effectively balance theory and practice.
I believe the biggest inhibitor to growth, musical or otherwise, is a lack of confidence. A lack that comes from too much pressure to produce idealized results-- fear of mistakes...
I embrace the developmental process,
I work with every student to make each lesson plan efficient, meaningful and inspiring.

Men who shouted 'being gay is immoral' at shoppers have convictions overturned
A pair of Christian street preachers, who were fined after shouting 'Mohammed is a liar' and telling shoppers being gay was 'immoral', have had their convictions overturned.
Judges concluded that former US marine Michael Stockwell, 51, 'did no more than express his no doubt sincerely held religious beliefs', according to The Daily Mail.Oxford to ban fetish orgies 'where virgins are whipped and students watch live sex shows'
And while they noted that Michael Overd, 53, had taken some satisfaction in 'working the crowd', they decided he had not committed a public order offence.
The two men were convicted of racially-aggravated public order offences and fined £300 each after preaching to shoppers at Broadmead shopping centre on the first day of the Muslim festival of Eid.
Video footage filmed in July 2016 showed the men showed Mr Stockwell, from Selden in New York, shouting: 'Allah is the greatest deceiver – that's in the Koran.'
He added: 'You will die for your sins and be cast into hell.'
Mr Overd, from Somerset, told the crowd: 'Mohammed is a liar and a thief, just like you and me. Buddha isn't on the cross – he is a liar, just like you and me.'
Mr Overd also preached that sex before marriage was immoral and that it used to be a shameful thing to get divorced.RAC man killed on motorway hard shoulder while fixing a car
'David Cameron is no more a Christian than my dogs,' he added.
One witness said the men were there to 'pick a fight' and that the incident took place in front of up to 100 people.
Prosecutors claimed there was 'considerable' hostility from the crowd, and the men refused to turn down their amplifier after being asked by a nearby trader.
The crowd then chanted 'go home' at the men before police came and arrested them.
The footage was obtained from a body camera worn by Mr Overd was shown in court.Massive prick launched to test sea temperatures and saltiness
In February, the men were handed £300 fines on top of £30 victims surcharge and shared prosecution costs of £3,372 – £2,016 each in total.
But the pair, who are not ordained vicars, insisted they were simply reading from the King James Bible – and denied aiming hostility at other faiths or sexualities.
But at Bristol Crown Court this week, they successfully appealed against their convictions at a two-day hearing in front of Judge Martin Picton.
The judge and two magistrates said they found the prosecution had not proved the preachers showed hostility to members of another religious group.
Mr Stockwell told the Bristol Post he felt 'elated' the case was over.Woman who left abusive note on ambulance banned from returning home
And Mr Overd told the BBC: ' I am a patriot and I will be back on the streets to preach. My life is not my own. I am a Christian soldier and I rejoice in this prosecution.'
Andrea Williams, chief executive of the Christian Legal Centre which has been supporting the men, said yesterday's ruling was a 'victory for freedom of speech'.

Picador Books, 1994. 346 pages. ISBN 978-0-312-42736-8
A wonderful novel in which we are introduced to young Mary Russell, a British orphan of some means, who meets Sherlock Holmes. Holmes has become a retired gentleman living in the country and keeping bees. Russell becomes, as one would guess, his apprentice.
This sort of thing could be done very badly. The Apprentice is done extremely well, and is an absolutely delightful read. There are more books in this series, this is the first, one wonders if they will be as good.
Holmes and Russell have several adventures together in this book, culminating in one enormously complicated effort to identify and capture a master criminal who attempts to kill Russell, Holmes, and Watson (yes, Dr. Watson lives, too) during the course of events.

Just Being Audrey
Written by Margaret Cardillo
Illustrated by Julia Denos
Just Being Audrey by Margaret CardilloFrom Roman Holiday to Breakfast at Tiffany's, when Audrey Hepburn starred in a movie, she lit up the screen. Her unique sense of fashion, her grace, and, most important, her spirit made her beloved by generations. But her life offscreen was even more luminous. As a little girl growing up in Nazi-occupied Europe, she learned early on that true kindness is the greatest measure of a person-and it was a lesson she embodied as she became one of the first actresses to use her celebrity to shine a light on the impoverished children of the world through her work with UNICEF. This is Audrey Hepburn as a little girl, an actress, an icon, an inspiration; this is Audrey just being Audrey.
, and fans will especially enjoy picking out the movie roles depicted in a two-page spread of costumes. -- Booklist Audrey Hepburn proves as irresistible a character in the pages of a children's book as she is in those soigne roles of the silver screen. -- Publishers Weekly

The Hudson River Valley, 1820 to 1850 H ow rapidly is civilization treading on the footsteps of nature! ——-IAMES FENIMORE COOI'ER * IN 1824 the Marquis de Lafayette returned to the United States
to visit familiar places and to observe the changes that had taken
place in the nation whose independence he had helped to cre-
ate. Shortly after arriving in New York Lafayette and his party
boarded the steamboat fame: Kent for a journey up the Hudson.
Everywhere the aged republican went, throngs of people greeted
him. In Newburgh, for example, citizens erected five triumphal
arches, hosted Lafayette at a festive dinner, and showered him
with wreathes, flowers, and assorted gifts. The same outpouring
of respect and generosity greeted the gallant Frenchman every-
where he wcnt in the United States: to a nation experiencing
great change, Lafayette represented continuity, a link with the
stirring events of the Revolutionary past and a commitment to
republicanism that many commentators believed was being lost
amid the pursuit of wealth.l Lafayette's secretary, Auguste Levasseur, recorded the de-
tails of their journey up the Hudson. They traveled past Tarry—
town, where Major Andre had been captured, and other sites
notable for events that occurred during the struggle for inde—
pendence. But Levasseur was especially struck by the scenery of
the Highlands, a place "where nature only shows herself under
strange forms, and in sombre colours," and which evoked "phan-
toms" and "sinister sighings" not unlike the legends Washington
Irving had created. Although someone who cherished the tem-
nants of feudalism and the castles of the Middle Ages might favor
the scenery of the Rhine, Levasseur wrote, "for one who prefers
nature still virgin and wild, there is nothing so beautiful as the
banks of the Hudson."2 ' The English-born landscape painter Thomas Cole arrived in
New York in 1825. Although the Erie Canal extended to Buffalo
that year, ensuring the prosperity of the merchants who in the
future would provide the patronage essential to an artistic com—
munity, according to Cole's first biographer, Louis Legrande
Noble, the artist was more captivated by the scenery than by evi- 94 PARTII: LANDSCAPE AS HISTORY —_—_—u__LLLLL—m—___x dence of a robust commercial economy. c'From the moment when
his eyes first caught the rural beauties clustering round the cliffs
of Weehawken, and glanced up the distance of the Palisades,"
Noble wrote, "Cole's heart had been wandering in the Highlands,
and nestling in the bosom of the Catskills."3 Lafayette's visit was an occasion both for reflection and for
celebration. As Levasscur observed, the Frenchman's presence
provided the opportunity for reverent acknowledgment of the
historical events that had taken place during the Revolutionary
era and also to measure the nation's progress since independence.
Cole's arrival in New York was unheralded, though in later years
it would be considered a starting point in the maturation of land-
scape painting in the United States. Despite his and Levasseur's
celebration of the scenery, the age of sail was rapidly giving way
to steam, and economic development was transforming the cul-
tural geography of the Hudson Valley. Levasseur was astonished
by the volume of commerce on the river. "It would be difficult,"
he observed, "to enumerate the boats of all sorts and sizes which
carry on the trade between Albany and New York; the river is
continually covered with them, and you can rarely sail for a quar-
ter of an hour without meeting a long succession of them." Cole,
who. lamented the impact of civilization on his beloved wilderv
ness, could do little to forestall the march of progress. Yet the
celebration of the domesticated landscape he championed, and
the evidence that civilization was destroying both natural beauty
and the physical remains of the nation's history, led to the sancti-
fication of the Hudson River valley. In the middle of the nine-
teenth century, contemporaries combined an appreciation of land-
scape with an increasing awareness of the importance of history
to urge the preservation of a simple vernacular farmhouse that
had been associated with important events of the Revolutionary
War. That building became the first structure in the United States
preserved for its historic significance} The domestication of landscape, the achievement of a bal-
ance between nature and the human presence, was a necessary
precondition for the sanctification of the Hudson Valley. Andrew
Jackson Downing, the Newburgh, New York, nurseryman and
landscape gardener who became the preeminent arbiter of taste in
the mid-nineteenth century, chronicled the cultivation of the land
and the symbolic impress of civilization upon it. Two of his ear-
liest essays, published in the New—Tare Mirror in 1835, proclaimed
the superiority of cultivated nature over the sublime, of pastoral
civilization over wilderness. The first, "Beacon Hill," led readers
to the summit of Mount Beacon, which was directly across the 3. Louis Legrande Noble, Tine Lafi:

alerted Washington's troops to the movements of the British army
in the long months between the battle of Yorktown and comple-
tion of the negotiations in Paris that ended the War for Indepen-
dence, Mount Beacon was, to the young Downing's untraveled
eye, one of nature's "most majestick thrones." He compared the
view favorably to betteruknown prospects in the Catskills, which
were too sublime for his taste. From Mount Beacon, by contrast,
"In every direction the country is full of beauty, and presents a
luxurient and cultivated appearance." Downing noted that visi-
tors could enjoy the scenery because settlement had eliminated
the dangers traditionally associated with wilderness, which in-
creased the appeal of the landscape: "none of the fashionable," he
wrote, "think their summer's tour complete until they have loi-
tcred away a day or two at 'Cozzens' [Hotel], falling in raptures
with the captivating, though (at that place) stern and majestick
beauty of the Highlands."5 The second of Downing's essays was a "reverie" at Dans
Kamer, a flat rock that projected into the Hudson several miles
above Newburgh. The northernmost point of Newburgh Bay,
this was a locale celebrated by Washington Irving as a ceremonial
powwow ground for Native Americans. Downing, who praised
Irving for preserving the "rich old legends and antiquarian scraps"
of the river's history, amply described the autumnal splendor of
the vicinity and reiterated Knickerbocker's tale of how the "wild
yell of the savage" had alarmed Peter Stuyvesant's crew. The age
of the canoe had given way to the tall sloop and the steamboat,
however, and where wigwams once stood were "a thousand
cheerfiil homes gleaming in the sunshine." What best character—
ized the changes wrought by civilization, Downing implied, was
the domestication of the landscape, the establishment of homes,
farms, and villages: the "once dense wilderness," he wrote approv-
ingly, "has disappeared under the hand of civilized man."6 Taken together, Downing's later writings on architecture
and landscape gardening are a prescriptive treatise on the domes-
tication of nature. In his more famous books Downing provided
illustrations of the Beautiful (or Graceful) and the Picturesque,
but not of the Sublime, the state of nature at its rawest and most
powerful, and which evoked associations of awe and terror. He
supplied plans for country houses and their gardens, and for
dwellings in small towns and villages, but none for large cities.
He also promoted the suburb as a place of residence for those
persons who were compelled to work in urban areas but who
wished to raise their families in landscaped surroundings more 96 PARTII: LANDSCAPE AS HISTORY "Landscape Gardening, in the Graceful School" (above) and "Land5cape

writings indicate, by the second quarter of the nineteenth century
nature and civilization had achieved a harmonious equilibrium in
the Hudson River valley. Thomas Cole presented a similar assess-
ment in his "Essay on American Scenery," which he published in
the same year as Downing's writings in the New-Twit Mirror. A
"cultivated" landscape, Cole wrote, "encompasses our homes, and
though devoid of the stern sublimity of the wild, its quieter spirit
steals tenderly into our bosoms mingled with a thousand domes"
tic affections and heart-touching associations."7 The Hudson River landscape not only was domesticated,
but also was considered by contemporaries an important element
in the nation's collective identity. Because of the short time that
had passed since independence, the United States lacked the m0n~
uments, ruins, and centuries of tradition that provided Europeans
with a sense of identity in place and time. Iames Fenirnore Coo-
per, Nathaniel Hawthorne, and other writers complained about
the absence of historical associations in the New World. But if the
United States lacked the physical remains of the past, it had nature
in abundance—«a landscape older than all the institutions of Eu-
ropean civilization. In Home A: Found, Cooper's fictional charac~
ter Eve Efiingham. described the "Silent Pine" that stood in "soli—
tary glory" on the bank of Lake Otsego: It is indeed eloquent; one hears it speak even now of the fierce
storms that have Whistled round its tops—of the seasons that
have passed since it extrlca ted that verdant cap from the throng
of sisters that grew beneath it, and ol'all that has passed on the Otsego, when this limpid lake lay like a gem embedded in
the forest. When William the Conqueror first landed in England
this tree stood on the spot Where it now stands! H ere, then, is
at last an American antiquity! As if following Cooper's assertion of the supremacy of na-
ture over civilization, in an era dominated by romanticism, artists
and writers found in the domesticated landscape a source of in-
spiration and the guarantor of America's distinctiveness as a cul-
ture. "The painter of American scenery," Cole noted in his jour-
nal, "has privileges superior to any other. All nature here is new
to art." While Cole was preparing to depart on a visit to Europe
in 1829, newspaper editor and poet William Cullen Bryant warned
the artist that "Thine eyes shall see the light of distant skies." The
last six lines of Bryant's sonnet cast the landscapes of the Old and
New Worlds in dramatic contrast: 98 PARTII: LANDSCAPEAS HISTORY The domesticated landscape: "The Hudson at Newburgh," an oil on canvas

But keep that earlier; Wilder image bright. Bryant's poem warned his friend Cole to avoid the temptations of
an overcivilized Europe and to keep nature, the birthright of the
American continent, foremost in his paintings.8 8. J. F. Cooper, HomgAs Found

1700 —1960, page 96. See also Nathaniel
Hawthorne, The Marble Farm (1859;
New York, 1961), page vi. THE SANCTIFIED LANDSCAPE A host of other writers echoed the same theme. Writing in
the Literary World, for example, a correspondent asserted that
landscape was the "first field and the best field for our painters,"
as it guaranteed originality and "distinguished success." Another
suggested that American artists who traveled to Europe left he-
hind "GOD'S landscape," while Asher B. Durand's "Letters on
Landscape Painting" advised aspiring artists to study American
nature rather than the masterpieces of the art of the past. Follow-
ing these injunctions, and undoubtedly inspired by Cole's com-
mercial success, numerous artists set out to explore the aesthetic
potential of the Hudson Valley. Many of their prosperous coun-
trymen, predominantly from large cities, shared the artists" appre-
ciation of the domesticated landscape. During the second quarter
of the nineteenth century the pages of literary magazines filled
with reveries on the Hudson Highlands and the Catskills, while
engravers produced hundreds of illustrations of handsome scenes
of natural beauty for popular gift books and souvenirs. As the
environmental impact of the emerging industrial cities was be-
coming evident, those who could afford the cost and who shared
an enthusiasm for landscape began patronizing such well-known
establishments as Cozzens Hotel and the Catskill Mountain
House to partake the beauties of nearby scenery. Hartford mer-
chant John Olmsted took his son Frederick on numerous "tours
in search of the picturesque," and years later the son recalled how
deeply the perception of nature had affected his father and shaped
his own career as a landscape architect: On a Sunday evemng we were crossing the meadows alone.
I was tired and he had taken me in his arms. I soon
noticed that he was inattentive to my pra ttle and iooicing in his race 32 w' in it something unusual. Foiiowmg the direction of his eyes, I said: "Oh! there's a star." Then he said something of Infinite Love with a tone and manner which really moved me,
chick that I was, so much so that it has ever since remained in my heart. Only the ineffable beauties of nature could evoke such a response
from the normally stolid John Olmsted, a response the son later
attempted to make possible for visitors to the urban public parks
he designed throughout the United States. For John Olmsted and
for numerous other members of his generation, during the second
quarter of the nineteenth century nature had become a source of
inspiration, a place not for the rigors of agriculture, which neces- 100 PART II: LANDSCAPE AS HISTORY "Below Cozzens," an engraving that appeared in William Cullen Bryant's

As an automotive partner of
FIFA, Kia Motors India has created an exciting opportunity for Indian football
players between the ages of 10-14 to experience the 2018 FIFA World Cup Russia,
as part of the Kia Official Match Ball Carrier (OMBC) programme.
Karnataka's Rishi Tej (age 10)
and Tamil Nadu's Nathania John K (age 11) emerged as the lucky winners of the
Kia Official Match Ball Carrier programme, bagging the honour to represent
India at the 2018 Football World Cup in Russia. They will be delivering the
all-important match football to the pitch where soccer legends will play for
the ultimate prize in the sport.
Kia Motors India also
announced that four other youngsters from different parts of the country have
been selected to make the trip to Russia as spectators. All six kids will enjoy
an exclusive Kia sponsored trip to the world's premier sporting event, along
with one of their parents or a guardian.
Bhanuj Bhalla was from Ryan
International School, Noida (Uttar Pradesh), Priyasharan Prakash (Army Public
School, Noida), Aditya Batra (Shri Ram School in Gurgaon, Haryana) and Scott
Ashley Rodrigues (Don Bosco High School, Mumbai) are the four kids who will
travel to Russia to experience the FIFA World Cup extravaganza.
Nathania John Kandathil,
incidentally, is the only female from India selected for the final OMBC
campaign. A Class VII student at Rishi Valley School in Madanapalle, Andhra
Pradesh, she made the cut by impressing Sunil Chhetri with her footballing
skills. Born in a small town in Kotagiri, in the Nilgiris district of Tamil
Nadu, she is equally fond of athletics and enjoys keeping track of leading
sports stars in various sports.
India captain Sunil Chhetri
conducted the trials in Gurgaon last month and had a tough time zeroing in on
the two kids who would be the country's first OMBCs. As many as 1600 children
participated in the programme, with 50 shortlisted for the final selections.
Rishi Tej and Nathania John K
will be seen on television sets across the world as one of them steps on to the
field on June 18, ahead of the Belgium vs Panama encounter; the other chosen
kid will walk along with the players with the official match ball in their hand
on June 22, before the explosive clash between Brazil and Costa Rica.
Rishi Tej, a Class 5 student
at Royale Concorde International School in Bangalore, Karnataka, is not only an
avid sports person but also a school topper, emerging first for three
consecutive years. He has taken part in many football tournaments in the city,
and has won a couple of Player of the Match awards.
Under the FIFA OMBC programme,
64 schools kids from different countries, including two from India, will get
this once in a life time opportunity to not only walk alongside some of the
world's best players but to also watch a World Cup match. These young people
will play a key role in each and every pre-match ceremony
In April 2017, Kia Motors
signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) with the State Government of Andhra
Pradesh, India, to build a new manufacturing facility in Anantapur District.
Construction of Kia Motors' first manufacturing
facility in India is underway. The manufacturing facility is expected to begin production in the second half of 2019
and produce approximately 300,000 units per year.
