Brexit and the Death of Reason
- By nicolaainsworth

They call it "Optimism Bias" or, more technically, "Unrealistic Cognitive Bias" and it is the tendency for human beings to believe in a positive outcome for themselves and their relatives and friends in times of crisis. Before I looked it up I always thought of it as the "edge of the volcano" syndrome; the phenomenon where people choose to disregard a vague existential threat in favour of the comfort of their immediate surroundings. This is perhaps why so many Jewish intellectuals left it so long before deciding to flee Europe in the 1930s, why so many Syrian professionals and academics put up with the Assad regime until it was too late. It is certainly an appropriate description of the disease which has gripped my country over the last few weeks as popular support for a "No Deal" Brexit grows like bacteria in a Petri dish.
Why "No Deal" for heaven's sake? An economic, political and sociological disaster that looms in the face of mounting evidence of the country's complete unpreparedness. We have no food security, a totally inadequate infrastructure, no trade deals, no solution to the Irish border question and no political unity; not to mention a "just in time" manufacturing culture and a vastly scaled-down military. Crashing out of the EU just won't work, it can't work and yet it is not just the Russian bots that are causing such a collective swing towards catastrophe. What else can be going on?
I have followed as much of the mainstream news outlets and commentaries (patronisingly intellectual, usually with a Remainer bias) as I could stomach and offset this with self-enforced exposure to the tabloid rhetoric (emotive, anti-expert and staunchly Brexiteer). Nor have I flinched from plumbing the sordid depths of the Internet troll habitat (post-truth, hate-fuelled, xenophobic, misogynist, I don't need to go on). I think I have identified some of the fantasies that are sustaining a dose of the worst case of "optimism bias" since the augers of Pompeii looked up at the smoking mountain and pronounced that everything would be alright provided someone sacrificed a couple of goats.
At the top of the list, of course, is the Statesman Special: the sovereignty fabulist who's dream is to rise up out of the chaos and lead the country back into the halcyon days of blue passports, warm beer, cold showers and cricket on the village green. This vision of a Britain (or, more likely, an England) that never really existed fuels support for Boris Johnson and his crew despite the fact that they are well known to have insulated themselves against a post-Brexit Armageddon with personal fortunes, international business ventures and substantial off-shore holdings. Jacob Rees-Mogg's investment company even offers a Brexit-survival package; Mr Churchill must be turning in his grave.
Next I would like to give the stage to Mr and Mrs Dunning-Kruger*, I don't know how many people there are in this category but I suspect that they made up a substantial portion of the "leave" voters and are growing in numbers all the time. {Probably a good reason to give up hoping for a reversal of sentiment in the event of a second vote}. This is the fantasy of the Evil Empire of Brussels which has never ceased trying to impose absurd regulations about such traditionally British food additives as listeria, tuberculosis or CJD. There is a great deal of room for improvement in the EU and it has not always served us well but when financiers, manufacturers, academics, doctors, and senior people in two such diverse occupations as the police and the arts are all telling you that crashing out is a bad idea, your distrust of experts has become pathological. Tragically, it is now manifesting itself in the accusation that these advisors are all just attempting to undermine the results of the referendum.
We have two versions of the survivalist daydream: the first being the Dunkirk Spirit fantasy of plucky Brits, getting by in a crisis, of neighbours coming to one another's aid, of keeping chickens and growing vegetables in the backyard. "Keep buggering on" and there will be "blue skies over the White Cliffs of Dover" but, actually committed to the page, this would be risible if it wasn't such an insult to all the people who suffered and died in World War 2. To have a wartime fantasy you need a wartime enemy and where do these fabulists think you they are going to find one? Just a glance at some of the repulsive, hate-filled rhetoric that passes as on-line debate will give us a clue. Death threats and overt racism against neighbours are becoming mainstream. So much for "Their Finest Hour".
And while we are on the subject of East Kent: last week I travelled the A256 from the Isle of Thanet to Dover. This is the main artery which joins one of the busiest sea-lanes in the world to Manston Airport, a large, muddy field where we are promised we will be able to park thousands of lorries while we "sort out the paperwork" before they head off to the Channel Ports. As if I didn't already know that much of it is a single carriage highway in a poor state of repair, I took the opportunity of a social call to see it again with my own eyes. I blinked back the tears as I took the accompanying photograph**. Back up the coast from Dover, the port of Ramsgate has given a contract to run ferries across the English Channel to a company without any boats. Locals could have told them that the harbour needed dredging before it can be put back into operation and I doubt that the opportunist's memories are long enough to recall that it was EU money that refurbished that very same harbour some twenty years ago.
The second type of survivalist is the Netflix Nihilist: pumped on a diet of post-apocalyptic mini-series where an intrepid band of A-listers defeat the hordes of hungry "others" by means of a blood-soaked weapons-fest, these are mostly of the extremist political persuasion. But the fact that they are mostly American should not blind us to just what Tommy Robinson and the English Defence League or his counterparts on the extreme left have got in mind for anyone who gets in their way "come the revolution". It's a very ugly "thinning of the herd" fantasy and you don't even need to go on the dark web to find it. If you happen to like sci-fi (and I do) then every time you get on-line to try to get news about your latest escapist indulgence you will see just how popular such dystopian delusions have become.
Now we turn to The Rescue fantasy: the Europeans are just bluffing and will come round at the last minute, we can call on our English-speaking allies in Ireland, Canada and Australia and we still have the good old Commonwealth. India will come to our aid. When they all see how beset our poor little islands have become they will magic away their current trade networks and put aside their own economic interests to make it all alright after all. No chance. Most of these countries are indeed our allies, and many of their commentators are deeply saddened by what we are doing to ourselves but their leaders all have their own interest to represent and I'm afraid that the best the citizens of a "No Deal" post-Brexit Britain can hope for is a friendly welcome to our most gifted and highly qualified refugees. That's refugees from Britain, if anyone is paying attention. The India/African nations subset of this fantasy is particularly distressing in the way it blithely overlooks the effects of several hundred years of rapacious colonialism. it's rather similar to the way in which many abusers believe that their victim is still beholden to them.
The next one I have recently heard described as the "mouse riding on the shoulder the American eagle" scenario: the USA just can't wait to be our friend, once we are rid of those tiresome European neighbours we can venture boldly into a whole host of new dealings with our oldest and bestest friends. Really? Without doubt there are those in the United States who are waiting with baited breath for the rich pickings that an economic collapse will bring: the asset-strippers and the carpet baggers are poised for a rush of take-overs to say nothing of a military machine which has its eyes firmly on the opportunity to turn a subservient UK back into one of its strategic bases. No, I'm afraid this metaphor collapses faster than any of the others, so I shall spare my readers any more allusions to carnivorous predators and simply observe that we were probably better off with President Obama's ineffectual commiserations than we will be with a Trumpian take-over.
"What does she know of all this?" I hear my readers ask. Well, I've lived a long time, read an awful lot of books and travelled in more remote regions of the world than most of my interlocutors have even heard of. Not for nothing did I visit and try to comprehend the beleaguered cities of Detroit, Bhopal and Sarajevo in the space of a single year. An American academic once looked at my website and said dismissively "well, you're an anthropologist" as if my travel writing was of little interest to her. Actually, I remember being told many years ago, as a young recruit, that it was the fate of most police officers who truly cared about people to become an anthropologist eventually, so perhaps it's not such a bad epithet after all. I do care, very much, and in the quiet of the night I have no fantasy to fall back upon. And I am afraid.
* Dunning-Kruger: a tendency to overestimate one's own intellectual capacity, especially in areas where one has little or no understanding.

I see. The attacking tomato is Martin's new character.
It has always bothered me how you can find replacement party members further ahead in the dungeon you had to bust and force in to get that far, and is a tomato even in the PHB as an allowable player race?
I think it is as long as it's a 1/2 dragon 1/2 tomato.
Well, the replacement party members won't have to fight their way in like the party did as they will have left nothing but ruins and death behind them.
Just as long as they remember to call him by his new name, and not
Ambrose Magellan Martin.
"Ketchup! My old mate! Is that you?"
Yes, the tomato is a the PC. Unfortunately he is now dead.
We shall all mourn our friend tomato. Alas!
Here I was looking forward to how Martin could powergame a tomato. Guess he shouldn' t have taken the "Juicy" flaw.
It's a half-troll half-dragon dungeon-bred spicy tomato, with regeneration and a chili breath attack… a tenth the size of regular killer tomatoes, but twice the punch!
And acid
blood juice…
I daresay the favorite class of PC tomatoes is monk. They have a natural talent for unarmed combat, you know. 😉
Although rules for swashbuckling pirate tomatoes and ninja stealth tomatoes are supposed to be released next year.
Christina, you are killing me. 😆 😆 😆 😆 😆
Nice mouse-over text. 😆
It was not a well received speech. 😉
Also i have a 60/40% division whether it is Enkidu or Freya which trew the tomato.
In my head it was someone else in the party, but I'm not sayin' and it doesn't really matter… so it gets to be whoever you want it to be the most!
I have a feeling that Martins new character in the form of Fleece of the never ending pool of replacement sisters would be high up on manys wish list….
Incidentally..can druids turn into tomatoplants?
Are tomatoes "natural creatures"?
Depends on where you live…
Well, they are plants, and in 3.5 (with the correct feats or prestige class) a druid can learn to wildshape into plant creatures. 😕
Isn't Freya still dead, or do we take it for granted that in 4e someone who's lungs have been removed and fed to a manticore can be healed just as easily as someone with a stubbed toe?
I've been out of the game too long…
I think this is the question we are all not so secretly asking.
Freya is the DM's Girlfriend…a few minutes…or possibly seconds in the bathroom with the DM… and Freya could not only be alive…but have her stats boosted.
"It's just a flesh wound!"
Did 4E introduce body hit zones for special crippling damage? Otherwise…. pff, walk it off.
Nope, no crippling.
Freya is dead, yes. But since this is 4.0 now and she didn't have her soul sucked out by an evil and powerful force of creation in the shape of a sword whose blade is made of the night sky, that's really just an inconvenience. Anyone able to cast rituals (like Morty can) who is trained in the Heal skill (like Morty is) and has the Raise Dead ritual in their book (like Morty does) can bring her right back to life. Well… for varying degrees of "right back". Let's all agree that "right back" means "eight hours later".
Raise Dead is only an 8th level ritual now, IIRC, but I could be wrong, it's been a long time and I never actually got to 8th level…ever, really(gaming groups just don't seem to last long enough even when I can find one, and I've only ever played with two).
It _is_ an 8th level ritual – which needs a good amount of gold and several hours.
Of course it costs quite a bit, death isn't that cheap, even in D&D.
I disagree – death in D&D is cheap. Resurrection isn't.
Quite in contrast to the real world – resurrection is only granted by gods, but then for free… 😉
So did Bunker go up a level because he is looking more epic in the third panel.
They are all 14th level now. They've gone up a bit over the years.
We gave up on 4th ed and went back to 3.5 and then over to Pathfinder before we got that far, but I know that's 14th on a scale from 1-30, not 1-20. Which begs the question, is 14th the new 9th?
Wow – 14th level tomato!

Brittney blinked a few times. When her eyes cleared up, she realized she was at the end of a street. The street that led to their cabin. She wore the clothes she had on before she disappeared. She had on the necklace she got for her 18th birthday and never took off. She checked her wrist and found the turtle shaped tattoo she got for her 21st. Now, she wondered how long she had been gone, because the snow had cleared away. But the cold bit through her clothes and she shivered in response. She just hoped her friends were still there.
She started walking in the direction of the cabin. For a while, her feet were the only sound on the still street. After a few yards, she heard the distant rumble of a car engine. An old car engine. The sound of Lance's busted Ford truck.
"What are you doing out here?" Lance called out from the truck.
Brittney turned and felt more joy and relief to see him than she ever cared to admit. She had to remind herself of his usual zoo animal like behavior, so she didn't get too relieved to see him.
He stopped the truck and hopped out. He rubbed his head. A sign he felt guilty about something.
"Listen it was just a joke we pulled on you back in the house. I didn't think you'd be on freak out mode for the whole week."
Brittney shrugged. She raised her hand to cover her eyes from the sun. "Where are the others?"
He hopped back onto his truck and reached over to open the passenger side. "Been lookin' for you!"
Brittney headed for the truck and stepped into the passenger side. She wasn't sure where to begin to explain her absence. Maybe it didn't even happen at all. Maybe it was just a freak dream sequence. The kind you read in a book and the writer ends up concluding this huge elaborate plot line as being just a dream.
"Oh, I have your cell phone. It's on the dash."
Brittney buckled her seatbelt and reached over to get her cell phone. Aside from a few random text messages and missed phone calls, everything seemed usual. Except for a Facebook friend request.
From a woman named Brenda. Brittney accepted and decided to shelve the dream sequence idea for a bit.
She couldn't help but wonder though...what the hell happened to Figuro and his assistant?
"Were gonna fix you up with some tonic and gin when we get back," Lance said as he turned the truck around. "That'll loosen your tongue a bit so you can explain where the hell you went all day."

PomoDoneApp Crack & License Key
If you are in the very least interested in self-improvement, then there is a good chance you may have heard about the Pomodoro technique.
The philosophy behind this method is to make you as focused and as creative as possible, by managing your work time into intervals of 25 minutes in length separated by short breaks of 5, 10 or 15 minutes.

DIP Studio
553 4.5
|Crack size
|Downloads total
|Win 7, Win 7 64 bit, Win 8, Win 8 64 bit, Win 10, Win 10 64 bit
By now, you might be thinking that this might be indeed a very efficient technique and should be part of our professional lives. Fortunately, someone has thought about that and, as a result, PomoDoneApp was born.
In just a few words, PomoDoneApp is an Electron-based, uber-useful piece of software that aims to improve your overall productivity by connecting to some of the most popular task management services such as Wunderlist, Trello, Evernote, Basecamp, Slack, Toodledo, Jira and PivotalTracker, just to name a few.
Before you take advantage of what this application offers, you are first required to create an official PomoDone account and start to connect to various services. Please note that this is only possible via the app's web-based dashboard.
Once the connections are established, they should become visible within the app's main window in no time. If you feel any delay at all, just click the 'Sync' button from the top toolbar's right side.
We should also point out that the top toolbar also offers you the possibility to search for any specific projects, to add new tasks and access the app's main menu.
Basically, all your connected services should appear on the left-sided panel and your current projects on the right side of the main window. By hovering with the cursor above any element, from any of the connected services, you can easily start the timer for any specific tasks.
Once the timer has started, the app goes into a sort of 'no-distractions mode' where all you get to see is a graphical representation and an analog timer.
At this point, you can pause the timer, stop it altogether or switch between tasks. The program allows you to set the time length for the following break and enable or disable its autobreak feature.
Since the app smoothly integrates itself with your computer's taskbar, it is also worth mentioning that you can use its unobtrusive taskbar menu to perform a broad range of useful tasks.
To conclude, PomoDoneApp Keygen provides you with a streamlined method of getting the best out of the famous Pomodoro technique by integrating itself with the most comprehensive task management services out there.

Recent reviews
Very good 8.2 From 23 reviews
The hotel is in a great location, a few minutes walk from all the sights. The rooms are quite spacious, not luxurious, but with character as they within one of the old buildings of Cartagena. Breakfast was a treat, with attentive staff, served on the roof terrace.
Great value for your money. Beds are comfortable and AC works great. The hotel is in close walking distance to several restaurants and shops within the walled city. Front desk staff was very friendly. I'd stay here again.
Good A/C, Hot Water, big comfy bed in a cozy room with lots of character. Wifi could be better, but it wasn't "bad"
Very convenient location in the Old City. Quiet street, yet easy walking everywhere. Very helpful reception staff. Simple, but good breakfast on roof terrace. Room safe needed to be replaced. Challenging for those with difficulties climbing stairs.

Garage Door Springs - (847) 243-6282Benefits of the spring in the garage door mechanism Garage products must work effectively with no malfunctions strange sounds, and without having difficulty moving up and down. Garage Door torsion springs are placed on a steel tube on your wall above the garage door. Drums on each side of this tube were made to rollup the cable and lift up the door. The garage door springs give you the necessary torque for lifting the garage door upwards while unwinding. For your garage door to remain balanced as well as to run properly, the springs have to be thoroughly set according to the manufacturer's guidelines. If you can't notice the springs above your door, possibly you have what's called a Torquemaster unit. A Torquemaster will only include a tube on the door with the springs inside it. If you feel you have got a damaged spring in your Torquemaster unit, just detach the garage door from the opener and check if runs effortlessly by yourself. Be sure that the garage door is all the way down when you disconnect it from the opener. If your door feels heavy or really wants to drop once you lift it, theres a pretty good possibility that the spring is defective. Springs should elevate the door effortlessly. They're pretty important to the sufficient efficiency of your door mainly because they counterbalance the weight of your door and lift it. Once they break, you are simply luckless. After all, if you suspect any kind of failures with your springs and want instant spring garage door service, it is important to give us a call immediately.
We're mindful that a broken spring is truly a problem that can not be postponed!

The employees of our company are really experienced with door springs and know the ways to follow, so the garage door repair service is performed properly.
We focuses on all torsion spring solutionsGarage door springs undergo massive levels of pressure simply because they help to raise and shut a garage door several times on a daily basis, which results in a fatigue of the product and eventual damage. Garage door torsion spring repair is a demanding task, which includes extensive skills, the proper tools and training.Torsion springs may be found in several dimensions and utilized as a counter balance of the garage door. However, springs do have a life cycle. After a couple of years of normal use, day in day out, the springs break. A spring normal life-span changes from five to ten years of day to day utilize. They start to become more brittle and might break. Perhaps you now think about what the door torsion spring replacement charges are. That relies about how extensive the task is but you can be sure that our company will offer you the ideal costs for the task. All torsion springs are produce of oil tempered cord and sprayed with a thoroughly clean dark protecting end to help you minimize corrosion. The spring needs to be positioned right over the door on a bar known as a shaft. Garage parts tend to be important security investments, that safeguard your house and springs are huge components in charge of the safe opening of the door panel. Do not forget that the openers don't actually do all of the hard work in order to carry a door. The fact is, they should do very little effort. The large springs which are components of the garage door hardware are designed to lift the door. It is quite crucial that these springs be rightly adjusted therefore the engine of the opener does not wear out ahead of time. Do not modify garage door springs all by yourself. You must not attempt to tamper in torsion springs or extension springs simply because they keep great deal of pressure. This really is a job for a skilled professional.

If a product is still under warranty, and theres nothing to indicate anything dodgy (the source of the item or the damage) , then charging for a repair/swap is not acceptable. They should just be able to look up the serial number etc and see if its covered or not.
TBH (and I could be completely wrong), but your tech guy sounds like bit of a rip off if hes over charging for postage, and claiming a supplier wants $$ for a warranty covered product before they've even got it.
1101 is right however, if the tech isnt the original supplier, then it is his time and effort to chase it up, but he should be clear about this, not claim its for postage and EVGA fees. When I was working for myself, there was no way Id charge anyone anything until the work was completed and I had a full break down of fees etc.

The United℠ Explorer Card comes with a generous welcome bonus and loads of travel-centric perks. If you've recently taken the plunge and applied for the United℠ Explorer Card, here are some suggestions on what to do next.
Hit the minimum spending requirement
As a new United℠ Explorer Card holder, you can take advantage of the following sign-up bonus: 40,000 bonus miles after you spend $2,000 on purchases in the first 3 months your account is open.
This is a big bonus with a relatively low spending requirement. Make sure you're using the card for every United purchase (more on that later) and larger purchases until you hit the mark.
This welcome bonus is even more exciting when you consider that the United℠ Explorer Card's annual fee is $0 intro for the first year, then $95.
» Learn more: United Explorer: Richer rewards, perks you'll actually use
Rack up the miles
The United℠ Explorer Card's earning structure is fairly basic: You earn 2 miles per $1 at restaurants, direct hotel bookings and United purchases — including airfare, seat upgrades, in-flight entertainment and more. You'll earn 1 mile per $1 spent on everything else. That's all there is to it.
If you're looking to get the best value from the miles you stockpile, we suggest using them on a trip abroad. According to NerdWallet's valuations, United miles are worth an average of 0.08 cent. This is a baseline value, drawn from real-world data on hundreds of economy routes, not a maximized value. In other words, you should aim for award redemptions that offer 0.8 cent or more in value from your United miles. Typically, you may find stronger redemptions when using your miles on international award tickets.
While you're out of the country, feel free to keep using the United℠ Explorer Card, as it carries no foreign transaction fees.

Speed through security
Now that you're the proud new owner of a United℠ Explorer Card, you should sign up for Global Entry or TSA Precheck. As a United℠ Explorer Card holder, you'll get reimbursed for either a $100 application fee for Global Entry or $85 for Precheck.
Simply charge the card for this purchase and you'll receive a statement credit. The credit is available every four years — right when you'll need to renew those applications.
Board first
Do you like getting situated on the airplane before it gets too packed? Well, the United℠ Explorer Card has you covered. The primary cardholder and traveling companions on the same reservation will receive priority boarding on United-operated flights. This perk kicks in about two weeks after your account has been opened.
Priority boarding means that you and your flying partners will board after MileagePlus Premier members, Premier Access travelers and those requiring special assistance. The days of waiting in a long line to find that there's no overhead space left to store your bag are officially over.
Use the lounge
The United℠ Explorer Card comes with two complimentary day passes to United Club airport lounges, which you can use when flying United or its partners. Cardholders also receive two day passes every year on their cardmember anniversary. Normally, a day pass to a United Club lounge would run you $59, so this is a great perk.
Check a bag for free
If you pack a lot when you travel, the United℠ Explorer Card will take the sting out of checked bag fees. As a United℠ Explorer Card holder, you and your traveling companion are entitled to one free checked bag per flight when flying United. Just make sure you use your United℠ Explorer Card to buy the airfare, and you'll be all set to go.

The bottom line
The United℠ Explorer Card is worth checking out if you fly the airline often. It has good travel benefits and a relatively low annual fee.

text: Has anyone seen a Vivitar branded LF lens before? Going by the serial number this is a prototype, but 180mm seems an odd focal length to start with so I wondered whether there where any others out there. I was also surprised to find out that Vivitar wasn't a manufacturer either, instead sourcing from a host of other companies. Schneider was one of those (they did a lot of contract work for other companies) but if it is the finish looks more like something from the twenties or thirties than the seventies. The cells aren't big enough to be a plasmat but I guess it could be a tessar that has been reduced slightly to fit the Copal 1 and thus has a f5.6 max aperture rather than the f4.5 you would expect.

Elizabeth Warren Blasts President Obama: What He's Done That's 'Troubled' Her
Whoa. Did Barack Obama just lose one of his closest political allies? Senator Elizabeth Warren slammed the former president after he did something to deeply disturb her. Uh-oh. What did Obama do?
It seems that Senator Elizabeth Warren, 67, is not thrilled to hear former President Barack Obama, 55, will collect a fat paycheck when he speaks at a Wall Street conference in September. "I was troubled by that," Elizabeth said while appearing on Sirius XM's Alter Family Politics show on April 27, per ABC News, slamming Barack for perpetuating "the influence of money" on politics.
"I describe [money] as a snake that slithers through Washington," she said. "And that it shows up in so many different ways here in Washington. People understand the money that goes into campaign contributions. And when I say 'understand.' I don't mean they think it's okay, but at least people see it."
Barack Obama Goes Kitesurfing — See Pics Of Him Living His Best Life
Barack will receive $400,000 to be the keynote speaker at a conference being thrown by Cantor Fitzgerald LP, a Wall Street investment firm, per Raw Story. Considering that Barack was a huge critic of Wall Street's massive influence of politics while he was in the White House, seeing him collect nearly half-a-million dollars to talk to them made Elizabeth see red.
After all, Wall Street speeches were a huge deal during the 2016 Presidential election, as both Bernie Sanders, 75, and Donald Trump, 70, continued to harass Hillary Clinton, 69, about the $225,000 she received while speaking to Goldman Sachs. However, Barack is no longer running for officer, and his adviser, Eric Shultz, tried to remind people that despite the huge payday, Barack is not a friend to big money.
"In 2008, Barack Obama raised more money from Wall Street than any candidate in history, and still went on to successfully pass and implement the toughest reforms on Wall Street" in 60 years, Eric said in a statement. "While he'll continue to give speeches from time to time, he'll spend most of his time writing his book and, as he said in Chicago this week, focusing his post-presidency work on training and elevating a new generation of political leaders in America."
Hmm. This attempt to clap back at his haters might not be enough to salvage his friendship with Elizabeth, as she absolutely hates Wall Street. Oh no! Does this Elizabeth and Barack are the new the new political Katy Perry, 33, and Taylor Swift, 27?
What do you think about Obama taking a $400,000 paycheck, HollywoodLifers? Do you think Elizabeth is correct for shading the ex-president?

Located at the foothills of the Berkshire Mountains at the gateway to the Harlem Valley, Horn & Thomes, Inc. Funeral Home has been serving families of all faiths in their time of need since 1936. The character of our services is defined by its family ownership and heritage. One cannot help but feel embraced and comforted by the charm of this countryside setting and peaceful nature of our individual rooms, their furnishings, and touches of local artisan charm.
As the name suggests, the business today reflects the history of two families who dedicated their lives to funeral service in the greater Pawling area. John W. Horn moved his family from Amenia to Pawling in 1936 and opened the original funeral Home on Smith Street. Soon after he built the current facility on East Main Street to better serve the needs of families and individuals.
Augustus J. Thomes, of Stamford, CT, graduated from the McAllister School of Embalming in 1933. As a licensed funeral director, Gus, served in WW II as a U.S. Army Mortuary Commander and achieved the rank of Lt. Colonel during service in the Army Reserve. In 1958, Gus purchased the business and property from Mr. Horn and moved his family to Pawling from Stamford. He renamed the business Horn & Thomes, Inc. Funeral Home maintaining the heritage and encouraging the continued growth of personalized funeral service.
John M. Thomes, son of Gus, graduated from American Academy McAllister Institute of Funeral Service, Inc. in New York City in 1968 and entered the family business working for his father for many years. Eventually, he and his wife, Debbie, purchased it from his father and continues today as the owner and funeral director. Family tradition continues today with Sara C. Guilbeault, a third generation funeral director, active in the daily operation of Horn & Thomes, Inc. Funeral Home.
It is our focus and goal that visitors feel welcome as soon as they arrive at Horn & Thomes, Inc. Funeral Home. From the moment of greeting at the front door we strive to put visitors and families at ease. Comfortable décor and setting allows families and friends to celebrate the lives of their loved ones.

You might be thinking "prop photo" when you see the kitchen above. Actually, this was a real day when I was enjoying my favorite green smoothie and prepping dinner. Ahh, all that fresh farmer's market bounty has me craving summer. But if you were thinking "props" you weren't entirely wrong. Look back toward the left of the stove and you'll see a toaster. That my friends, is indeed a prop toaster. It works, but if you look closely it still has the plastic packaging on the back because my husband has dubbed it the "good" toaster that is too nice to use. No, really. My parents came for Christmas and had the audacity to put slices of bread in it and leave crumbs. Jon just about lost his mind. Do you have anything like that at home or is it just us?
Anyway, it's also a "prop" because there are no outlets on the back wall which brings me to the point of this post. Look around your kitchen. Chances are you have more outlets than you need. This is a huge pet peeve of mine in kitchen design. Plugly, really. Sure, the whole point of a kitchen is to cook in it and for that you may need to plug in some counter appliances. BUT. How many do you really use? Chances are you could get away with two. The reality is you have to be a surgeon to get the tile score lines and outlets to look just perfectly so and it ends up drawing all the attention away from your design and straight to your plugs (no, Jon, I'm not talking hair plugs). So I ask that when you start planning for your future kitchen, hide the outlets! We chose a four plug electrical box on one side of the island and then did another four plug on a side wall. That's it! And you know what? I don't miss having more. Instead, the focus is where it should be – on that stunning feature wall. There was no way that marvelous Carrera marble hexagonal tile was sharing space with plugs. Ew. I cringe at the thought of it!
#NixonPack Tip: Camouflage the outlets by tucking them under the upper cabinets (if you have them). Or, you could hide them in/ on the side of the cabinets or island. Many cabinet makers are now building stealthy little drop downs there as well. My favorite is a designated cabinet made just for your coffee pot, toaster, etc. If all else fails, find a decorative plate cover that blends best with your kitchen design and do as few as possible. How have you hidden your outlets? Share with us below!

There is forgiveness however bad your sins. If you come to Christ and truly repent. Your soul is cleansed. It tells us that.
Mary came to Jesus in the house of Simon and they whispered sinner. She knelt at his feet and wept and her tears washed the feet of Jesus. Repentance. She dried his feet with her hair. The acceptance to serve. She anointed his feet. The acknowledgement of him as the Messiah. Simon said basically why do you allow her to do this?
Jesus said Simon You asked me in but have offered no hospitality. When she has done all this. He understood she had offered up her soul.
'Your sins are forgiven.'
Knock and the door will be opened. Ask and it will be given. That is how our world changes.

Redeemed_By_His_Blood, Of course we have the power to change the world, that is the whole purpose of sharing the gospel with others, so that they too can become changed and become Christianed just as we are.

Eloy, you said,
"God would be evil if he condemned a soul without first allowing the soul to choose atonement over condemnation"
You imply that all the wicked who kill babies, murder women, and hate God this minute, still have a free will and if God punishes them for doing what they are doing, God would be evil for punishing them because they have free will? Free will gives them a right to murder.
No Eloy, they are going to be punished for what they have done.
They are already cursed. They did have a choice to kill or not kill, to hate God or love God. They were not willing to love God but willing to kill others. Their will is not free, it is filled with hate and anger, if it was free from sin, they would not kill.
on 12/31/11
Eloy, don't you read what you write before posting? You say, Instead of righteousness, God judgment would be sin. Implying His actions are sinful. God is righteous, even His actions against sinful man are righteous.
You also said God cast His salvation out to each soul and you can grab hold in order to be pulled up out of the bondage of sinking sin or else push aside the salvation onto their own wits which results in bondage and perishing. On the other blog you just said, satan was destroying you and you reject Christ. Lost your first rebirth, but you did not sin. "free will" theology has you so confused. That you can come and go as you please and God has to listen to you, because somehow you feel God has no power over you.
on 12/30/11
after a discussion with MarkV, i do not think choice and free will are the same.
but, anyway, it is kind of a useless debate.
on 12/30/11
If youd take the time to see what Mark, is saying.
You would see it is not falsehood.
When has this world ever chosen God?
For after that in the wisdom of God the world by wisdom knew not God, it pleased God by the foolishness of preaching to save them that believe.
If I had not come and spoken unto them, they had not had sin: but now they have no cloke for their sin.
He that hateth me hateth my Father also.
If I had not done among them the works which none other man did, they had not had sin: but now have they both seen and hated both me and my Father.
Mat_12:7, Mat_23:23!
Every good thing comes from God!
on 12/30/11
Yes to an extent.The problem is we can't change the heart of man.Only our Father in heaven can do that but we need to try.
on 12/30/11
Wivv, our light has not become dim. Our light is the same as it has always been, the light is the Spirit of Christ and He never becomes dim. Matt. 5:13-15 explains that very clear. Jesus had mostly in view pure salt, that cannot lose its flavor or effectiveness, but the salt that is common in the Dead Sea area is contaminated with gypsum and other minerals as has a flat taste. Such salt was good only for keeping footpaths free of vegetation. A godly life gives convincing testimony of the Saving power of God. It brings God glory (1 Peter 2:12). The amount of individuals that will be saved can never change, for it is written already. Only God knows how many they are.
on 12/30/11
Markv, You post falsehood, all are given freewill to choose Christ or reject Christ, else God's judgment would be sin rather than perfect righteousness, as you falsely profess. God would be evil if he condemned a soul without first allowing the soul to choose atonement over condemnation. God casts his salvation out to each soul to grab hold of, in order to be pulled up out of the bondage of sinking sin onto damnation, and it is up to each drowning soul to grab hold of the Salvation in order to be saved, or else push aside the Salvation onto their own wits which results in bondage and perishing, and eternal damnation.

"Yes", we, as Christians can change the world. When I was in a Bible collage in 1961, we had a speaker at our chapel service who said that if each Christian would lead just one person to the Lord each year, it would only take 7 years to evangelize the world. That didn't happen since it is now 2011 and a large portion of the world in not Christian. Maybe our "light" has become dim.
Matthew 5:13-16 (NASB77) "Let your light shine before men in such a way that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father who is in heaven.

"Do we have the power to change the world?"
And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, ALL POWER is given unto me in heaven and in earth.Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen
All the power is His, and all is to His glory and praise. His will, will be done, and is in motion, 'we' cannot change a thing, all is His plan and purpose. If we are used by Him in any way, it is still of Him and not ourselves.
on 12/28/11
Eloy, God has given us the power to be able to complete exactly what God ordained from the foundation of the world. And what we do God already saw in advance. Whether we or someone else takes the gospel to someone God already sees will believe. Neither you nor I can change the future God has already seen. Everything is before Him complete and in the order He plan it. If the future was in question or uncertain to God, then He would not be God and would be learning as time goes by, but we know that He is Omniscient, knowing all things.
on 12/29/11
Redeemed_By_His_Blood, Yes we have the power, Jesus says that he has given us ALL power over the enemy, and he Commands us to
"Go you all into all the world and preach the glad tidings to all creatures, whom obeys and is baptized will be saved, but whom not obeys will be condemned. And these signs will follow them that believe, In my Name will they cast out demons, and will speak with new tongues, and will get rid of serpents and if took what lethal it will not harm them, they will lay hands on the sick and they will recover."
on 12/28/11
Barb, you are correct. God has already told us what the future holds for all of us. When we bring the gospel to others, only the one's chosen from the foundation of the world will believe by faith, and that has already been written. How many they are, how they will believe, and what is in store for all of us is already written, unless we have the power to rewrite the future and change the will and purpose of God as Eloy claims. Man, in his humanity has always tried to undermind what God has foretold will be. Even the enemy thought he could change things, but even he is already ordain for his own permenant place.
on 12/28/11
Barb, I believe the poster is refering to the people in the world. And we indeed can change the world, that is change the people in the world, by sharing the gospel with them, one person at a time. How changed for the better would this world be if every Christian informed the nonChristians about the living Christ, which living Christ can give the nonChristian a brand new Christian life.
on 12/26/11
We can not change the world. Jesus said that his kingdom was not of this world John 18:36. We should be laying up our treasures in Heaven and looking forward to living in the perfect city, the New Jerusalem. God has foretold the future and it cannot be changed.

I heard two comments that I liked a lot. First:
".. God has already told us what is going to happen to the world and all lost in this world."
That is so true, nothing can change what God has planned. No amount of free will can change the determined will of God.
"Everything is done by His Spirit, the Spirit of God, the Holy Spirit"
The work of salvation is of God. Only He can bring faith in Christ to a lost soul.

Eloy, great story.
If only God had shown the boy the way, maybe he could have saved all the starfish.
But, than who would believe the story. I remember another story about a boy on a beach.
Try to put the ocean in a hole in the sand. Impossible!
All things that the Father hath are mine: therefore said I, that he shall take of mine, and shall shew it unto you.
If thou canst believe, all things are possible to him that believeth.
Go your way, and tell John what things ye have seen and heard, how that the blind see, the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead are raised.
And to the poor the gospel is preached!
on 12/20/11
Yes, I recall a true story: a small boy was casting star fish into the ocean one-by one that have washed up by the tide onto the beach. Another boy came to him and said, "There must be hundreds of dying star fish here, and you will not be able to save them all, so why would you do this?" The small boy answered, "Maybe so, but it matters to this one", and he knelt down and picked up a star fish and cast it into the water..."And it matters to this one", and he knelt down and picked up another one and cast it likewise into the water. So the boy understood, and he also joined in to double up on saving the star fish. So never think that your witness to others does not change the world, because it does.
on 12/19/11
No we don't have the power to change the world, anymore than Noah has any power to stop the flood.. God has already told us what is going to happen to the world and all lost in this world.
We do have the power to preach the Gospel of salvation to the lost and warn people to flee the wrath of God that is to come. The only way you can flee God's wrath to come is to be In Christ...just like Noah was IN THE ARK.
Receive Jesus Christ as your SAVIOR, and you will be saved from God's wrath to come.

Do we have the power to change the world?
I would say, yes. You must!
I believe God had given us, this power.
But before you go changing anything, I want you to know.
It was because God made the world this way, that I came to ask him, why?
It seemed like he is saying, it was because you wanted the knowledge of good and evil.
I can say its because God made everything this way.
That good can look upon evil and not be affected.
But true evil cannot see good, nor can it, understand it.
It has absolutely no idea what good is, even when it is right in front of its face.
So, I wouldnt change a thing, here!
God bless!

I think that we should focus on not letting this world change us as much as it does. We can definitely let our light shine, we are called to, and how wonderful it is when someone shines their light on us. How many people are starving for a little genuine kindness? Remember though, Be kind to all, but intimate with few. I wrote that quote down from some ware in my journals and it can go a long way in keeping the balance of being kind.

By the world I meant its people. Often times we refer to the world without including ourselves."For god so loved the world He gave his only begotten son". This means that we"the people"are the world which Christ died to save.If we refuse to admit we have the power to change the world,we fail to embrace the true "Christ".For He commanded us to go into the world preach the Gospel and make disciples. This is how we change the world. One heart at a time. "JUST BELIEVE"

\\ I'm more convinced that GOD is most interested in saving souls from Eternal Damnation than making this world a "batter place to live".\\
I will agree with that statement as far as it goes.
However, to the point that you morally and spiritually change yourself with God's help, to that point you have changed and therefore improved the world.
Glory to Jesus Christ!
on 12/9/11
Well, it depends on what you mean by "change the world". I'm more convinced that GOD is most interested in saving souls from Eternal Damnation than making this world a "batter place to live". He's got HIS own Plans to set up His own Kingdom on Earth when HIS Son returns in the near future. We, the true Church, are to be a holy salt and light to the World. But, "change" it?
on 12/9/11
No we don't but the Holy Spirit who works within us does.
It is HE who has the Power to work within us, flow out of us and into others lives.
He guides us into all truth.
The bible says, "Not by might, nor by power, but by my Spirit says the Lord" this mountain shall be removed.
Everything is done by His Spirit, the Spirit of God, the Holy Spirit.

SANTIAGO – This week, Chile inaugurated its new National Electric System after it merged the Central Interconnected Systems (SIC) and the Northern Interconnected System Grid (SING).
The new system, Sistema Eléctrico Nacional in Spanish, serves 97% of the country's population and it extends for 3,100 km. It will connect an installed capacity of approximately 24,000 MW, representing 99% of the country's total, and a demand of 11,000 MW.

Construction began in August 2015, with an investment of USD 700 million (EUR 592.2m).
The new system will result in a more efficient electricity market, with increased energy security and, among other things, lower costs. The government estimates an increase in the GDP by USD 500 million in the short term and by USD 1.6 billion in the long-run.

Cow Appeal
I'm not usually a big fan of "I Can Read" books. And I'm not really into talking animals either. But I have to say, the Minnie and Moo series by author/illustator Denys Cazet is brilliant. I'm always amazed and impressed by authors who can pull me into a story with very few words. And when it comes to "I Can Read" books, the vocabulary is VERY limited.
Part of the appeal of these books is the artwork. I'm one of those people who wishes I could draw, but really, I don't have the patience for it. I know enough to realize that even though it looks cute and simple, the artist put a lot of time and thought into the illustrations.
But the words, the words! These cows have attitude. They may not know all the answers, but they won't hesitate to give you their opinion! I've read these books to my kids hundreds of times. I put on my best Southern accent and pull out my vast array of voices (um, that would be about 3!) whenever we read together. But this morning as I cleaned the house, I picked up "Minnie and Moo Meet Frankenswine" from the sofa and stopped to read it by myself. And I laughed out loud. Even without the pictures the story is funny. How does he do that?
I've never seen Denys Cazet listed among the bestsellers or lauded for his beautiful paintings, so I'll do it right here. Even if you don't have children or you don't usually read books from this section, you have to check out some of the Minnie and Moo books. I guarantee they'll make you smile :)
