Moonlight flooded the desert floor Sunday night as I took Pheebs for a short walk. Knowing sometimes it is another 'last' night somewhere I kind of like to take a quiet walk around & say goodbye. Ya, I know it's a bit weird but I am far better at saying goodbye to places than I am to people.
I always enjoy that twinge of excitement every time it is time to move on to somewhere new. We rolled out of the Slabs at 9:30 this morning with a big wave and my usual thoughts of, 'thanks for the memories'.
First order of business today was laundry. Dropped Kelly at the Calipatria laundry & I headed 2 miles south of town to the Rest Area dump & water station. No problems dumping the tanks or taking on water so I was back at the Laundromat in about half an hour.
From there we headed off to our new boon docking site with great expectations of peace & solitude. We both agreed we were way overdo for that this trip. And, peace & solitude is exactly what we found.
We are boon docked in a great spot totally alone without a sole around. A canopy of stars from horizon to horizon, shimmering waters, & thousands upon thousands of birds. We spent the day serenaded by Sea Gulls, Great Blue Herons, White Pelicans with black tipped wings & dark Cormorants skimming along the water's surface . It is so nice to get back doing what we do best and what we are most comfortable & at ease with. Just hanging out by ourselves.
And, how nice it was to set up all my camera gear this afternoon & just sit quietly listening to all the birds far off out over the water. I have never seen so many birds concentrated in one area. Kelly caught up on her reading while Pheebs & Motor had lots of new smells to explore. All & all, just a real great change of pace for us finally…………….
GROANER'S CORNER:(( An elderly woman had just returned to her home from an evening of church services when she was startled by an intruder. She caught the man in the act of robbing her home of its valuables and yelled, "Stop! Acts 2:38 (Repent and be baptized, in the name of Jesus Christ so that your sins may be forgiven.) The burglar stopped in his tracks. The woman calmly called the police and explained what she had done. As the officer cuffed the man to take him in, he asked the burglar, "Why did you just stand there? All the old lady did was yell a scripture to you." "Scripture?" replied the burglar. "She said she had an ax and two 38's!"

Lovely place you've found there. One of the aspects we enjoy about our work is that a lot of the time it's just us. No neighbors jammed next to us, etc. No general public customers demanding our attention, etc. Quiet evenings and so on. Just us. Enjoy!ReplyDelete
Haha, thats a good one Al, my first laugh for the day,,,, an axe and 2, 38's,,,,ReplyDelete
Enjoy the peace and quiet......
I'm forwarding that groaner to my preacher brother-in-law. Glad you guys found a good spot. Mike and I feel we have found the same kind of spot here at Otter Springs in spite of the fact we are in a RV park--total quiet at night, beautiful surroundings, plenty of squirrels to keep Emmi entertained.ReplyDelete
Niland, AZ? I thought you were in California. Picky, eh?ReplyDelete
Definitely a peaceful looking place.ReplyDelete

Just curious -- I've heard that the area around the Salton Sea can be...shall we say...smelly? I can't imagine you'd be there if it was, so is this another rumor dispelled?ReplyDelete
Gotta love the peace and solitude and time to yourselves. We feel the same way and manage to find it in some campgrounds where we don't meet people and just veg. out, so relaxing.ReplyDelete
LOVE! LOVE! LOVE! That photograph of the great blue herons in the tree with their nests! Amazing shot! Glad you found a nice quiet spot! Sometimes it's nice to just be alone with your thoughts and contemplate your navel!ReplyDelete
Nice place you've got there, Al. Make sure to tell everyone how rotten and stinky it is so you'll continue to have it to yourselves. That's kind of like Oregon...we love to tell everyone that it rains all the time here, so you probably wouldn't enjoy it. Yesterday, however, the sun was shining and it was a warm and wonderful day on the coast! But, we probably should keep that information close o the vest, wouldn't want others to think that it stopped raining!ReplyDelete
I always thought Slab City was a little out of character for you and the Bunch, but now I'm of the opinion it was probably a good interlude, and allows you to really appreciate the peace and solitude you are now enjoying.ReplyDelete
As the commenter above inquired, isn't the salton sea kind of nasty where the water has evaporated? We drove out there one day and didn't find anything campable. Maybe you got a secret spot........ReplyDelete
I love the contrast of the smoke belching factory in the background, yet nature survives and thrives - even in dead looking trees. Very interesting place. Enjoy your peace and quiet.ReplyDelete
That groaner was a good one!!
We stayed only for one night at the Salton Sea in 2005. It seemed beautiful on first sight. But we couldn't stand the foul smell of it!ReplyDelete
Lucky if you get northern winds. Like your photos.
Along the western shore of the Salton Sea is a wildlife refuge that was started by Sonny Bono.ReplyDelete
probably why there is such an abundance of birds...
Also there was a tall hilly rock with a park and campsites, and big hunks of obsidian (black rocks) from the geo thermal activity in the area.
Just in case you were looking for something to look at!

Something about the sea birds that is majestic as they fly...long legs and huge wings...That's what I love here too..but it would be more fun to be alone..ReplyDelete
Interesting place you found there -- awesome pics -- as always:) Enjoy!ReplyDelete
enjoy the peace and quiet and the alone time!..been a long time coming!ReplyDelete

Live your dream ethereal wedding under the fairy lights that accentuate the pastel hues of our flora and fauna arrangements. Complemented with pristine crystal beads, glass dome and gentle candlelight, the magic of ambience will enchant your wedding night with romantic joy.SAVE TO WISHLIST

Location: Central
When we were looking for a hotel venue for a wedding dinner, my wife and I did our homework and finally decided on Marriott Tang Plaza Hotel, because in our view it was best able to meet and exceed all our criteria: 1. Able to comfortably accommodate at least 30 tables 2. High ceiling in ballroom 3. Central location for guests' convenience 4. Food served from a restaurant with great reputation and track record - serving food that was tasty and able to cater to our guests' dietary needs - from halal to vegan. 5. Reasonably-priced with good perks for the value offered 6. A banquet sales coordinator that was motivated, prompt and easy to work with With our wedding done and dusted, we can safely say what was actually delivered, from the planning stage till the AD far exceeded our expectations. The hotel infrastructure was already there and we'd already eaten the banquet food (Wan Hao restaurant) several times in recent years, so we didn't worry about (1) - (5). On the actual day, everything did run smoothly. Some of our guests commented that the food was one of the best they'd had in a wedding, and my vegan guests also commented that the food was really awesome and things went smoothly. For my wife and I, (6) is the icing on the cake. Getting to know and work with Denise Loo, our coordinator, whom we could really connect with, was simply amazing. It's difficult to find both a process and outcome oriented person. Two things really strike us about Denise - first, her genuine care and for her couples and second, her passion/sense of ownership of her work. As a result, we see her as a responsible, professional, tactful, quick-to-share-tips, calm and "scarily" prompt coordinator. She never once gave a hint of dissatisfaction at our constant queries or last-minute changes, much as we'd try to avoid them. I remember there are times that we'd deliberately not send her a text at night but wait until the next morning as we knew she'd respond even after her work hours (If you do choose Marriott and work with her, pls follow our practice if possible ok haha). You don't need an awesome coordinator to have a great wedding, you just need one that is professional. However, we can attest that having one really enhances the wedding planning experience and especially eases the bride's understandable worries. A great coordinator is truly an asset and competitive advantage to the hotel, especially one such as Marriott that should be able to tick most boxes for most couples out there. I wish all 2019 couples all the best - don't worry too much, do your part to plan it well and enjoy the big day! #goodthingsmustshare

Android's Google Now Feature Comes to iPhone
With an update to its search app, Google's intelligent search system Google Now is now available for the iPhone.
It doesn't have as deep of an integration with the operating system like it does on Android, but this Google Now version does offer a taste of one of the smartest features on Android.
Here's how it works: You synchronize your Google account to it, and using a mix of your behavior and presence on Google, it will automatically serve up things like traffic results and flight information. They're served up as "cards" in the app, and you can swipe them away once you're done with them.
Google has slowly been adding a lot of its top Android services to the iPhone in the form of apps, one of the most recent of which coming in the form of Google Maps. Apple replaced Google's mapping app with what many considered was an inferior version.

Students Monitor Classroom Conditions
Two groups of local science students from Westview High School, Beaverton, OR, recently won honors with projects using our sensors to monitor their school environment.
Julio Montano, Jose Perez, and Josean Perez used our temperature sensors to monitor classroom temperature and how it affects student attention span. The project won awards at the science fair. One of the science fair judges told the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) about it, and the students were invited to Washington, DC to present their results at a forum.
Josh Goodman, of the Beaverton School of Science & Technology, won the top prize at the local science fair with a project checking the carbon dioxide levels in classrooms, and comparing them to recommended EPA guidelines.

With the newest update, EA planted two spring challenges in TS4: Easter Eggs to hunt, and the Growfruit Challenge. You can read about them HERE.
After Steph said she was starting to do the Growfruit Challenge, I thought I would try it, also, and add in the Easter Egg collecting, also.
Tonight I went into my Challengeville world and into Windenburg. I chose the Rustic Residence for the Sim that I took from the Unplayed Sims for the world.
At first I thought I might just use the house and Sim as they were, but...I couldn't do it. So I made over the house a litle more than a bit (sigh), and even went as far as giving the Sim I chose a new name, a bit more muscle, and definitely a little more masculinity! I didn't change his facial looks at all, because he was cute to begin with, but...well...not quite up to my Sims' standard for males.
I also changed his attributes so that he fits both challenges better than he did before. He was evil, insane, and a criminal! Oh, my gosh! He was way too cute to be left like that1
Here's Roberto Gamez (formerly Amir Jeffers) with his new clothing...
Here's how Rustic Residence looks now (I should have done some before pictures, but you can check that out in your own game if you like)...
One of the things I did was move the lot over to the left, so that the little dirt path leading from the front door out to the road worked better, and so that the mailbox (and I chose a new one) was in a more likely place. I made the fence to make sure neighbors (and probably animals, in the future) wouldn't be disturbing his gardens.
I did go ahead and uploat Roberto to the Gallery. He can be found with my ID: lindawing.
I may or may not upload his house, but if I do, it will be after he has completed his challenges.

Where did I eat?
Taishoken Ramen at 515 Abbot Street in Vancouver.
What do they specialize in?
Tsukemen ramen (aka dipping ramen where the noodles are served on the side).
What was the vibe?
Warm, busy, crowded.
What did I order?
Spicy Tsukemen Ramen
- Having the noodles and toppings served on the side ensures that nothing gets over cooked in the hot broth. The noodles stay al dente the entire time.
- The broth is even more condensed, rich, and fatty than regular ramen broth because you are supposed to just dip everything in it rather than drink it from the spoon.
- The pork belly was super fatty, which I enjoyed because I don't like eating lean meat when I eat ramen.
- I feel like half an egg is a little skimpy and I wish they would have just given a whole egg.
- Eating this style of ramen is more time consuming than a regular bowl because of the dipping process and I kept splattering myself with broth.
Final Thoughts?
This style of ramen was fun to try and kept the noodles at perfect consistency, but it didn't take the spot for my favourite ramen place.

That was an hard decision for the Stars because Zucker was playing very well with us.His 5,5M contract for 4 year is too much for us and we prefer 6M for 2 year than that. To the start of the season no one wanted Zucker and a 3rd for nothing and now we got something on it , so that was the opportunity

Editor's Note: This interview contains descriptions and images of sexually explicit content.
No matter what is or has ever been going on in the world of comics, there will be a certain segment of the population that believes the medium is just for kids. An exhibition on now at New York's Museum of Sex presents a compelling counter-argument to this perception, with works by Robert Crumb, Joe Shuster, Wally Wood, Dean Yeagle, Colleen Coover, Howard Cruse and more comprising "Comics Stripped." The exhibition, co-curated by the museum's Sarah Forbes and comics historian Craig Yoe, is available for viewing through August. CBR News caught up with Yoe for his perspective on the exhibition, the history and appeal of erotic comics and illustrations and what viewers should take away from their visit to the museum.
CBR asked Yoe, author of "Secret Identities: The Fetish Art of Superman Co-Creator Joe Shuster" from Abrams ComicArts and who served as a major lender to the exhibition, what initially led to his interest in dirty comics. His answer was simple: "Blood flows through my veins."
"I often think about sex. I'm always interested in sex, thinking about sex. They say men think about sex once every seven seconds; the other six seconds I'm thinking about comics and cartoons," Yoe said. "Sometimes I combine the two and think about comics and sex! Hence the exhibit."
Yoe said the origin of "Comics Stripped" stems from his work on the "Secret Identities" book, during which time he was in contact with Museum of Sex representatives. "We talked about touching base later. About three months ago we hooked up, did a whirlwind of research and borrowing and calling on people from around the world to lend artwork and artifacts," he said. "We pulled it together rather quickly, but I think the museum did a sensational job. It came out beautifully. I'm very, very excited about the exhibit."
The exhibition includes many works from Yoe's own collection, including Joe Shuster's rare "Nights of Horror" comics and original artwork by "Archie" artist Dan DeCarlo and "Plastic Man" creator Jack Cole. "We called on collectors like Eric Sack to lend us original Robert Crumbs, and the great pinup artist Dean Yeagle, who sent us three strikingly beautiful pictures of his sexy pinup character Mandy," Yoe added. "Playboy lent some great material for this show. We have originals of Little Annie Fanny by Harvey Kurtzman, they lent some of their color cartoons by Eldon Dedini and Jack Cole. That material is really striking and we're pleased to have Playboy cooperate in this show.
"And then the museum has quite a wonderful collection of all things related to sex, [including] printed matter, cartoon books and Tijuana bibles -- all things related to their signature subject. So I was able to go through that collection and choose some wonderful items. Great artists like Jess Fink and Danny Hellman lent from their collections.
"One really, really special section is one on Eric Stanton, the most popular fetish cartoonist-illustrator who worked in the '50s -- his daughter Amber, who herself is a very talented painter, lent us some rare things from her father's works," Yoe continued. "Things came from all different places, and then we blew up the famous drawing Wally Wood did, called the 'Disney Memorial Orgy,' he did for the '60s radical publication called 'The Realist.' We blew that up over a whole wall! It's quite striking to see Disney characters frolicking around doing nasty things, to the enjoyment of all, by the master Wally Wood."
Describing the appeal of erotic comics as opposed to, say, that of photography, Yoe said the key is in what becomes possible with the medium. "To me, comics and cartoons are so great because cartoonists' stock in trade is to exaggerate as they're drawing, so they can exaggerate anatomy in ways that photography naturally wouldn't do. A cartoonist does it without thinking," Yoe said. "And subject matter, there's nothing a good cartoonist -- and we have the greatest cartoonists there are in this exhibit -- but there's nothing a good cartoonist can't draw. So you can have, like -- there's an orgy scene that Crumb drew that's in the show that could not easily be duplicated in real life, though it sure would be fun to try! Cartoonists can draw an incredibly shapely girl having sex with an alien, which would need a big Hollywood budget to pull it off, and they may not want to.
"A cartoonist can sit down at a drawing board and draw out their fantasies. And often the things the cartoonists put together are personal fantasies. It's always fascinating to look at people's personal fantasies, especially cartoonists you admire. We have such great cartoonists in the exhibit, Robert Crumb, Eric Stanton, Dan DeCarlo, Jack Cole, and Jess Fink, Danny Hellman, Milo Manara -- all these great cartoonists and we get to kind of peek into their minds."
Yoe told CBR that the "Comics Stripped" exhibition is arranged chronologically, beginning with Tijuana bibles of the 1930s. "Some of them are still being passed around, schoolyards and behind barns, whatever, as they originally were," Yoe said. "It's fascinating to see the rudimentary beginnings of sex comics. And they were rudimentary, they were for the most part very crudely drawn, except for one artist I really enjoy, Wesley Morse, who did Bazooka Joe comics later on for Topps chewing gum, as I did myself later on -- Yoe Studio eventually did Bazooka Joe comics. I'm proud to have followed Wesley Morse's footsteps in that way.
"And now I'm doing this sex exhibit, so I feel like I'm following in his footsteps again, because he had these wonderful Tijuana bibles that were just little 8-page booklets, often badly drawn and badly printed, but very explicit, very hard-core action, with popular cartoon characters of the day. I see Dick Tracy or Blondie or even Mickey Mouse, years before Wally Wood did his version of it, you see these popular cartoon characters having coitus. So that's an interesting cultural artifact, you see a lot of the history."
Yoe noted a few other notable characteristics of the Tijuana bibles, including their unusual method of distribution and the role they sometimes played in young people's lives. "Distribution was very underground, it was the mob printing and distributing these booklets through their normal channels. Like if I buy heroin, I get a bible at the same time!" Yoe said, laughing. "But the Tijuana bibles served a purpose: they educated a whole generation on how to have sex and what sex looked like, because this was way before the internet or even printed magazines that were explicit. It was the sex education of the day. I think they should still use Tijuana bibles in sex ed classes, I'm a proponent of that."
Walking through the exhibition, Yoe said, "You just see the different ways, the different takes on sex" that have prevailed throughout the years. "Some of the contemporary cartoons are doing very hardcore stuff, but now it's not just second-rate artists but first-class artists are doing sexual scenes. I don't think enough artists are tackling the subject, but there are some terrific artists drawing their sexual fantasies. But in between the beginning and the contemporary, there's all kinds of different approaches. Some eras, like the Dan DeCarlo era, are just pinup cartoons and jokey men's magazine cartoons and that was the main expression of sex in cartoons at that time. Our culture's attitude toward sex is very much reflected in the ways these things were distributed, the content that the cartoonists put into them, what was acceptable and what was not acceptable, and what was of interest at the time. So you do get a whole cultural history, besides just having a lot of fun.
"Which I think is the main purpose of sex and comics is to have fun. I'm all for education and cultural analysis, but I'm more about entertainment and fun. I think that's the takeaway from this exhibit, is people just tell me how fun it is, how much they enjoyed themselves, looking at the work," Yoe continued. "The museum did a world-class job, the exhibit's beautiful. It's great to see these great cartoonists with their left-of-mainstream subjects possibly really get their due in a world-class museum."

CSU Live Testimonial
Testimonial | ANNA MORAN - BACHELOR OF BUSINESS (MARKETING)
Anna Moran
Bachelor of Business (Marketing)
"The decision to study at CSU was an extremely easy one to make. The University offered all the flexibility required to study while working full-time and travelling overseas. With the ability to fast-track my studies with the three-session timetable, CSU was the obvious choice.
"I undertook work placement with Land and Property Information, a division of the Department of Finances and Services. I was able to work with their printing department in a marketing role. During this time I was able to develop a marketing plan for the business unit that broadened the marketing thought from a customer-centric focus to include a research-based approach that adopted an enhanced market orientation perspective.
"There have been periods of reward when experiencing that 'ah-ha!' moment when I finally linked theory to workplace practice. My work placement allowed me to experience this feeling many times, when I realised that the study I had undertaken was not wasted, it was not forgotten, it was just sitting in the back of my mind waiting for a time when I would apply it in the workplace."

And Sarah Brady weeps bitter tears
We got to ring in the New Year in North Carolina with Michael W. (and his lovely wife) from
Doin' the Time Warp
, and John and his daughter, "Sunshine", from
Tales from Left Field
. Much merriment was had, much fantastic food was consumed, and much wit was bandied about. But most importantly, we brought two new shooters into the fold -- Michael's niece and Sunshine. Go over to
John's blog
and read all about it. I hope I'll have pictures to add tomorrow.

Ratings and Reviews
No Internet Connection
It is a good app to use sometimes but this one time, "No Internet Connection" popped up. I tried using my internet on other things and it works but it just doesn't tower on PassApp.
Developer Response ,
Hi! Thank you for the feedback! We strive to deliver the best experience in Cambodia. We continuously work on our taxi app to make it better. Thank you for being with us
Drivers still try to con you.
Today my driver went in the complete opposite direction of where the GPS told him to go, and then feigned ignorance when I pointed it out to him. So I ended up having to tell him how to get to my hotel, even though that's his job. They're still going to try to rip you off no matter what so when you book it, take a screen shot of that estimate and show them. For the rest of my stay, I'm just going to forgo the app and flag down drivers myself. This app is literally not worth standing and waiting for a driver when at any given point there's at least 5 trying to offer you service. Just be savvy and don't waste your time with this.
Developer Response ,
Hi! Thank you for the feedback! We strive to deliver the best experience in Cambodia. We educate and work with our drivers all the time - so hopefully such situations won't appear in future
Need to be able to rate drivers
Customers should really be able to rate their drivers as drivers can rate their passengers. This might make drivers cut down on trying to scam customers by taking them the long-way-around to rack up distance/time on the meter. We should be able to report drivers that do that or at the very least give them a rating. Going to try Grab app now to see if they provide that option.

Ralph Vaughan WilliamsEnglish composer. Born 12 October 1872. Died 26 August 1958
Ralph Vaughan Williams Biography (Wikipedia)
Ralph Vaughan Williams OM ( (listen); 12 October 1872 – 26 August 1958) was an English composer. His works include operas, ballets, chamber music, secular and religious vocal pieces and orchestral compositions including nine symphonies, written over sixty years. Strongly influenced by Tudor music and English folk-song, his output marked a decisive break in British music from its German-dominated style of the 19th century.
Vaughan Williams was born to a well-to-do family with strong moral views and a progressive social outlook. Throughout his life he sought to be of service to his fellow citizens, and believed in making music as available as possible to everybody. He wrote many works for amateur and student performance. He was musically a late developer, not finding his true voice until his late thirties; his studies in 1907–1908 with the French composer Maurice Ravel helped him clarify the textures of his music and free it from Teutonic influences.
Vaughan Williams is among the best-known British symphonists, noted for his very wide range of moods, from stormy and impassioned to tranquil, from mysterious to exuberant. Among the most familiar of his other concert works are Fantasia on a Theme by Thomas Tallis (1910) and The Lark Ascending (1914). His vocal works include hymns, folk-song arrangements and large-scale choral pieces. He wrote eight works for stage performance between 1919 and 1951. Although none of his operas became popular repertoire pieces, his ballet Job: A Masque for Dancing (1930) was successful and has been frequently staged.

Without Julie Cooper, The O.C. would have been a lot less scandalous — and a lot less entertaining. Every series needs a villainous, manipulative, exploitative cast member, but it's just too bad that Julie (Melinda Clarke) also happens to be the mother of two impressionable and damaged young girls. Her eldest, Marissa (Mischa Barton) has a front-row seat to her mom's antics, which include sleeping with her daughter's ex-boyfriend (what soap opera would be complete without that classic scandal?) and gold-digging her way into a very wealthy and devious local billionaire's life. With a mom like this, it's no wonder Marissa turns out to be a spoiled, rebellious, boozing, drug-overdosing and shoplifting teen.

The study examined the economic benefits associated with 9 business sectors. Other than the obvious "Commercial Shipping for transport of goods and materials," the remaining 8 involve "water used" by Industries, Research and Development, Agricultural, Hydroelectric Facilities, Quarries and Mining, Public Water Supply, Waste to Energy Facilities, and Golf Courses (!).
"The economic impact (benefits) of all businesses, industries and farming operations that rely on the Canal System for its abundant, reliable and inexpensive supply of water has been totaled in terms of the economic output values consisting of direct employment, total employment, total personal income, tax revenues and total economic impact."Canal Corp estimates almost 9,000 jobs are at businesses that directly rely on the Canal System and over 26,000 jobs when "indirect and induced effects" are included; that these jobs generate almost $1.7 billion in personal income and $702 million in state, local and federal taxes -- for a grand total of over $6 billion in economic impact!
"These impacts were measured using the IMPLAN economic model. Direct employment was used as the input into the model . . ."Redflag! Warning! Computer model involved! IMPLAN uses "multipliers" and various assumptions about how money moves through the economy. Here, the "direct employment" was input into IMPLAN, and the computer "model" generated all the other numbers in the "study" that are sure to impress people with the "benefits" of the Canal Corp.
This all sounds suspiciously similar to another computer model in the news recently (the one that produced a "hockey stick" graph no matter what data was input). Like that other computer model, key pieces of information are being left out of the Canal Corp's study that would place the study's findings (assuming the findings are correct) into a perspective that would be meaningful to most people.
The canal "water used" to create jobs is water that is available in the environment anyway. The water could still be used whether or not the canal exists if the users build appropriate facilities. (E.g. MVWA would not need Canal Corp's Hinckley Reservoir if it had its own "compensating" reservoir.) Should not all these water "users" pay for the facilities they need to get the water?
There is no mention of the 500+ employees of the Canal Corp., what they cost, and the costs of parts, equipment and materials to keep the canal operational. There is also no mention of the revenues to the Canal Corp., nor where they come from. Most people would want to know costs and revenues in deciding whether or not Canal Corp. is worth keeping around.
And shouldn't the revenues be paid by those reaping the so-called benefits? That does not seem to be the case.
It is understood that the Canal Corp. cannot make ends meet on its own, and that a significant part of its operating budget comes from Thruway Tolls. "Thruway" is no where to be found in the study. Thruway users get no benefit from the portion of their Tolls that are used to buoy Canal Corp.
Computer models can cut both ways. Where is the estimate of the negative "multipliers" associated with Tolls on an interstate highway that in most other states would be free? How many truck-shipping jobs have been lost to the tolls? How many manufacturing jobs have been lost to the tolls? How many jobs that would otherwise have been "induced" have also been lost? How about value of potential farm products made unsaleable because New York's truck-transportation costs have been increased to pay for a Canal Corp that is on the dole?
The Canal Corp study is merely there to present numbers that will make people "feel good" about the Canal System and distract them from the numbers that really count: costs and revenues.
You know what you can do with the Canal Corp Study!

DraftKings MLB Lineup June 2nd
Yesterday's lineup ended up with 138.15 points. This ranked as 247/2,700. Pitching was the key as Lester had 42 points and Scherzer had 36. While no home runs were hit by any hitters, they were able to manufacture enough points to turn the lineup into a winner. Normally I expect to get more points out of my hitters but investing in pitching can hide poor hitting. Here is the link to yesterday's lineup Draft Kings MLB June 1st
Before looking at today's lineup we will flashback to the top performers from June 1st.
Pitchers: John Lester 42.35, Max Scherzer 35.8, Michael Fulmer 34.85,
Michael Fulmer was the best pitcher because of his value. Fulmer only cost $7,500. Whena lineup has a pitcher this cheap score this highly then the owner should expect big winnings with an expensive lineup.
Catcher: Wilson Ramos 26, Curt Casali 21
First Baseman: Wil Myers 30, Brandon Belt 24, David Ortiz 19
Wil Myers exploded with a home run and a double in the night game. He will be a cheap option tomorrow that is seeing the ball well. Myers has a hit in 5 of his last 6 games.
Second Baseman: Adam Rosales 23, Robinson Cano 18, Yangervis Solarte 15
Shortstop: Alexi Ramirez 39, Carlos Correa 15
Alexi Ramirez crushed the ball twice Wednesday night. Ramirez only has 3 home runs and all 3 come in the last 3 days.
Third Baseman: Todd Frazier 18, Jake Lamb 16
Outfield: Chris Young 37, Mookie Betts 32, Billy Hamilton 29, George Springer 21
Lineup for June 2nd
Pitcher: Madison Bumgarner $12,900, Kyle Hendricks $8,900
Catcher: Wellington Castillo $3,200
First Baseman: Chris Davis $3,900
Second Baseman: Brian Dozier $3,700
Third Baseman: Yangervis Solarte $3,100
Shortstop: Carlos Correa $3,400
Outfield: Adam Jones $3,400, Andrew McCutchen $4,300, Hyun Soo Kim $3,200
The Kim selection makes sense here because he is cheap and hitting 2nd while Adam Jones is hitting 1st.
ALTERNATIVE LINEUP: (for FEATURED OR MULTIPLIER LEAGUES)
P Bumgerner, P Keuchel, C Norris, 1B Davis, 2B Dozier, 3B Perez, SS Correa, OF Starling Marte, OF McCutchen, OF Springer

Lyonel Feininger
Lyonel Feininger
Lyonel Feininger
The American painter and illustrator Lyonel Feininger (1871-1956) was one of the leading artists of the German Bauhaus.
Lyonel Feininger was born on July 17, 1871, in New York, the son of German musicians who had emigrated to the United States. In 1887 he went to Germany to study music, but he decided on the visual arts and attended the Hamburg School of Arts and Crafts and the Berlin Academy of Arts until 1891. He then went to Paris and studied at the Académie Colarossi until 1893.
Feininger showed an outspoken talent for caricature and became a contributor to the German humorous periodicals Ulk and Fliegende Blätter in Berlin, where he lived from 1894 to 1906. He then returned to Paris and produced drawings for the Chicago Sunday Tribune and the Parisian paper Le Témoin. His caricatures, which were capricious and fantastic, had much in common with Paul Klee's early drawings.
In 1908 Feininger returned to Berlin. On a visit to Paris in 1911 he met Robert Delaunay and became acquainted with cubist painting. It was the constructive-ordering principle dominating cubism that attracted Feininger most and appealed to his personal taste. Cubism and the Section d'Or group had a decisive influence on the formation of his painting. His first cubist paintings date from 1912. His own style was representational and two-dimensional, rendered in a prismatic protocubist manner. Light played a predominant role in his work; the rays of light were used in both the structure and the coloring of the composition.
In 1913 the artists of the Blaue Reiter group invited Feininger to exhibit with them in Berlin's First German Autumn Salon. His friendships with Wassily Kandinsky, Klee, and Alexei von Jawlensky began at this time, and later, in 1924, the four artists founded the Blaue Vier group.
Feininger's personal style was established about 1915. Abstract elements, however, had appeared in his earlier compositions. In 1919 the architect Walter Gropius, the founder of the Bauhaus in Weimar, asked Feininger to teach painting there. Architecture, which was one of Feininger's main themes, came even more into the foreground during his Bauhaus period. The other main theme in the artist's oeuvre (both oils and watercolors) was seascapes with high skies and sailing boats. When the Bauhaus moved to Dessau in 1925, Feininger left as a teacher but remained in contact with this institution until it closed in 1933. He exhibited with the Blaue Vier group from 1933 to 1936.
In 1937 Feininger returned to New York, where he died on Jan. 11, 1956. His late pictures have a pristine classical character. His art, with its emphasis on proportion, transparency, and serenity, is well balanced and harmonious.
Further Reading
The most comprehensive book on Feininger is Hans Hess, Lyonel Feininger (1961), which contains a works list and a good bibliography. Ernst Scheyer, Lyonel Feininger: Caricature and Fantasy (1964), is a detailed study of Feininger as a cartoonist. The Museum of Modern Art's Lyonel Feininger, edited by Dorothy C. Miller (1944), includes essays on Feininger and excerpts from his letters.

Feininger, Lyonel
Lyonel Feininger (fī´nĬngər), 1871–1956, American painter and illustrator, b. New York City. Feininger studied painting in Berlin, Hamburg, and Paris. He was an illustrator and caricaturist for several periodicals in Paris and in Germany and had a weekly comic page (1906–7) in the Chicago Tribune before he turned to easel painting in 1907. He exhibited with the Blaue Reiter group and taught at the Bauhaus in Germany (1919–32). His canvases appeared in the so-called degenerate art exhibition of 1933. He returned permanently to the United States in 1937, taught at Mills College, and exhibited extensively. Feininger was fascinated by sailboats and skyscrapers, themes that appear in many of his oils and watercolors. He developed a delicate geometric style with interlocking translucent planes, suggestive of both light rays and architectural forms.
See his reminiscences, ed. by J. L. Ness (1974); definitive catalog of his graphic work by L. E. Prasse (1972); biographies by H. Hess (1961) and E. Schuyer (1964); study by T. L. Feininger (1965); The Comic Strip Art of Lyonel Feininger (1994), ed. by B. Blackbeard.
His eldest son, Andreas Feininger, 1906–99, was an American photographer. Born in Paris, he grew up in Germany, studied at the Bauhaus, and became a cabinetmaker and architect. Turning to photography in 1936, he moved to New York City in 1939. There he was a freelance photographer and on the staff (1943–62) of Life magazine. His best known photos are probably his compressed telephoto images of skyscrapers and streetscapes from the 1940s. He also took many pictures of natural objects such as shells, feathers, and bones. Feininger wrote more than 30 books, e.g., The Face of New York (1954).
See his illustrated autobiography (1986).
Lyonel's younger son, T(heodore) Lux Feininger, 1910–2011, was an American photographer and painter. Born in Berlin, he also studied at the Bauhaus and began taking photographs in the 1920s and painting in 1929. He moved to the United States in 1936. He is known for his simplified paintings of old-fashioned sailing vessels, his self portraits, and (from the 1960s on) for his semiabstract paintings in a style reminiscent of his father's. He returned to photography in the 1940s, creating images of ships, trains, and other means of transportation and New York City street scenes.

summer begins-
This year went by so fast, I can not for the life of me wrap my head around the fact that my BABY will be in 1st grade next year!!! I can remember my first day of 1st grade like it was yesterday. I pretty sure that at least 2 kids puked on the playground that morning. The jitters of going from warm fuzzy Mrs. Brown in pre-school to Sr. Suzanne in Kindergarten and then finally the very strict 1st grade teacher Sr. Jean-Marie was too much for some. Things have changed, thankfully, with how easy schools make the transition into 1st grade for kids now. Alice will seamlessly transition and I will be left thinking on the first day of school in September, "Where did all this time go?" I am pretty sure just last week I was 6 and playing double dutch at recess!!!
Sewing comes in very sporadic spurts for me now. I have received a lot of custom orders for Super Hero capes from this one very wonderful family in Maryland. They started out as Christmas presents for the grand kids, now the friends of grand kids want them and now capes have been ongoing birthday presents for friends. It makes me so happy that children are taking a very simple cape and enjoying hours of imaginative play. It make the hours of sewing and creating well worth it!
until next time.....

Juicy Bits
Can I just say that I am a block head one more time. Thanks.
Anyway, a few pages into my search I came across this lovely fabric and by coincidence the designer's name is Jessica. (First clue that it's meant to be.)
So, I Googled her. I found her blog, and her fabrics are sold at my favorite fabric store of all time, Tumbleweeds. Did I mention she grew up on Cape Cod? (Second clue that's it meant to be.). This is the fabric I have been looking for for 3 years!!!! I think a trip to Tumbleweeds is in order! And while I am in Hyannis I will stop at Trader Joe's and pick up a few things....or a hundred. It will be a good day, I can feel it in my bones.

Leap Year
I wanted to introduce a new Blog by my good friend Holly. She is an accomplished artist and has debuted a new series of drawings. She drew 1 picture for every day on The Leap Year 2008.
This is what Holly has to say about her project. Better to take it straight from her than for me to butcher the explanation. Visit her blog and follow her. You will be insanely glad you did!
"I am going to sell the leap year project:
I plan to release an email with a link to the blog weekly on Wednesdays.
Starting on the first Wednesday of January.
I will include a short writing about the week, and the titles of the images.
I will sell them for eight dollars, which will include packaging and shipping.
They are not framed.
They are each originals.
If you are interested I ask you to send me an email.
I will send the image at the same time you send the eight dollars. On the date we decide.
In with the money/check please tell me why you picked the one you did.
In with the art I will tell you something about the one I am sending you.
This will allow me to practice telling people stories about my art.
And will make it so you know more about the things I make."
Let's see. It's been a long time since I posted anything on this blog. Life gets busy. I guess that's my excuse!
Last Spring was really depressing. My beloved dog of 12 years had to be put down and the month of June here in New England only saw 3 sunny days. Needless to say when it finally did get sunny in July, Alice and I were soaking up some serious Vitamin D.
Summer turned into Fall and Alice started Kindergarten. Life gets really hectic when you have all the things that go along with school stuff. Just the daily routine makes me want to run for the hills. When is it going to be summer again? I am literally counting down the days. About 160.
