"It's a ticking time bomb, because if someone thinks they're going to walk in here and take my animals away, it's going to be a small Waco."
In the wake of last year's exotic animal tragedy in Zanesville, you could imagine such words having come from Terry Thompson, the 62-year-old who released 56 exotic animals on his central-Ohio farm before shooting himself in the mouth on October 18.
But the Waco moment comes from a man named Joe Schreibvogel, an exotic animal advocate interviewed in May by CBS News. "Joe Exotic," as he calls himself, owns and runs an sanctuary and zoo called G.W. Exotic Animal Park in Oklahoma that counts among its residents 170 tigers. He has been one of the most vocal and active defenders of exotic animal owners in the country.
With Ohio debating new, stricter regulations regarding private ownership of exotic animals, Schreibvogel has parachuted in to testify before hearings in the House and Senate. He's also recently come under scrutiny for his own operations in Oklahoma, and he champions one of the more outlandish theories about what happened in Zanesville last fall: that Terry Thompson did not take his own life, but was murdered buy an unknown gunman.
In April, Schreibvogel, who is also the president of the United States Zoological Society, an animal outreach and education group he created in 2008, met with reporters in Columbus. Among his talking points that day was a round of advocacy for shutting down some of the more poorly run sanctuaries in the state. But talk soon turned to Zanesville and how it was central to Ohio's movement to severely limit exotic animal ownership.
"It was a setup to further this agenda," he said. "I believe Terry Thompson was murdered."
Reporters in the room sounded audibly taken aback by the claim, and the incredulous follow-up questions came quickly.
Pressed further, Joe Exotic said the conspiracy was much larger than anyone could have imagined, and involved local authorities and the Ohio Division of Wildlife, a branch of government known more for its preservation of threatened species than its covert takedown of dissidents.
But it's a theory 49-year-old Joe Exotic isn't backing down from, even if it tends to morph a little in scope from conversation to conversation, and ultimately lacks any real bad guy.
"The whole thing stinks from square one in my opinion," he says by phone in mid-May, one day after appearing before the Ohio House and the same morning he is to make his way to Thompson's Zanesville farm to film a video about the conspiracy.
"I'm looking at it from two angles: [as] an ex-police chief and a man who owns more tigers than almost anybody in the United States."
Sure enough, Schreibvogel, who sports a long blond mullet and a black mustache that make talk of anything more serious than SpongeBob something of a chore to buy into, was briefly the chief of police in Eastlake, Texas, in the 1980s. He and his family opened the Oklahoma tiger sanctuary in 1987.
In the coming weeks, Ohio will likely enact a ban on most exotic animals, with the exceptions of small monkeys and snakes. The groundswell of support for the restrictions stems from the Zanesville tragedy, an international news incident that featured relentless coverage of authorities' efforts to contain the dozens of lions, tigers, bears, and other animals roaming the countryside before they could harm innocent people.
Despite hundreds of interviews and even more investigations by the media, no one can say for sure what drove Terry Thompson to do what he did. There were alleged marital problems, outside attention on his private Jumanji, and some possible money trouble. What resulted from all or none of that was the dangerous and selfish actions of a suicidal man.
Schreibvogel doesn't think so. He thinks someone — and that's as specific as he gets — saw Terry Thompson and his 73-acre farm as the perfect rallying point to swing public opinion toward an exotic animal ban.
But the more he talks, the more Schreibvogel thinks it might be something else altogether.
"I've gotten anonymous letters in the mail with leads," he says. "They go into telling me of multiple deaths — Terry's one of them — and about people wanting Terry's property for fracking. They get all the way down to knowing who the snitch was telling them everything that Terry did, and it implicates the sheriff's department and a former FBI agent. So I don't know yet whether it was to further the agenda or for his land."
Joe Exotic declines to name the other men supposedly killed, the former agent, or who would want to steal Thompson's property. But he does have plenty to say about why Zanesville doesn't add up.
Among his concerns: the cages had been cut, not opened with keys; a worker on site was only gone for a little over an hour, not long enough for events to occur as authorities describe them; chicken blood was found around Thompson's body, but no bucket used to carry the chicken blood was found; the gun Thompson used to shoot himself had been bought from a sheriff's deputy, but no one has been prosecuted for selling Thompson the gun; and leopards were left in their cages, something only someone with keen knowledge of animals and leopards' reputation as being the most dangerous big cats would know.
"He had keys, so why would he cut the cages?" he asks. "And as an animal lover and someone who would have died for those animals, why would he cut the cages apart knowing the animals were going to be slaughtered?

There are words in the English language which are often mistaken for something they are not. For example, if one is a democrat, he/she often automatically presumed to be a liberal, which is not always the case. If one is a vegetarian, many people will immediately see him/her as an animal rights activist. It may only be that her/his doctor instructed her/him not to eat meat for health reasons. Such confusion of a word is common when discussing capitalism and its meaning. Webster's Dictionary defines capitalism as an economic system in which the means of production, distribution and exchange and privately owned and operated for profit. Capitalism is often viewed as a governmental system rather than an economic one. Whatever it is and however it is viewed, it is important for one to realize that capitalism can be both a bane and a blessing.
Freedom, as capitalism, can also be considered a bane and a blessing.
The idea of being able to achieve what you desire gives people the drive to do well in life, as well as the motivation to take needed risks.
"A key element in capitalism is the undertaking of activity in the expectation that it will yield gain in the future. Because the future is unknown, both the risk of loss and the possibility of gain always exist." (Gesell, Silvio. The Natural Economic Order.)
However, when one becomes overly motivated, he/she runs the risk of risking too much and losing everything. With no restraints on personal spending from the government of a capitalistic economic system, it could be often difficult to use one's money and capital in a responsible manner. For this reason, capitalism can be considered a 'gamblers economy.' If the citizens in this system are unable or unwilling to accept the fact that...

After breaking my unintentional yarn diet this spring I for whatever reason have been able to relatively behave. That being said, I've wanted to make a Knit Picks order for a few months but kept putting it off. Finally this past week I caved and ordered a few things I wanted to get plus a few extras…oops. Every time a box of yarn comes in the mail it feels like Christmas and it was no different this time. Here's what I got.
To start, I'll get the boring items out of the way first. My real reason for making an order was that I needed some more circular needles for socks. I have one set of US size 1 (2.25mm) circular needles in the 32 inch cable size. This is the only size I use for socks as it fits my knitting style and gauge best. Thus I knew I wanted to get a backup and another set just in case I wanted to have two pairs of socks or another project on the needles at the same time. The other item was some Bare Stroll Fingering (462 yds, 100g). My last adventure with the dye pot was so much fun and I used this yarn. The thing is, I've knit up one skein into a shawl and have the other two in the works on a current shawl project. I need to dye more so four skeins came home to be dyed and knit into wonderful shawls or other projects in the near future.
But you want to know about the cover photo to this post don't you? Well, that's the extra yarn that just might have hopped into my basked. It is some of Knit Picks Felici. The colors they come out with are always amazing and I have knit up some from a long time ago but never was able to snag some of the new colorways. Thus two skeins each (50g balls) of Dark Side (the black + rainbow) and Sprinkles (the pastel colorway) just had to be mine. These are destined to be socks and I can't wait to cast them on.
Well, that's enough rambling for now. I've been keeping busy with a few projects including spinning, my socks, and of course my Waiting for Rain shawl (which I finally started, more to come on that soon). Here's to hoping your weekend is amazing and not too hot.
~Stay Inspired

Cecil The Lion – Details Behind The Kill
Recap Of Story That Outraged The World
According to a joint press statement by the Zimbabwe Parks and Wildlife Management Authority and Safari Operators Association, a professional hunter associated with a well-known local safari outfit made plans with the landowner of Antoinette Farm in Gwayi Conservancy, Hwange district on 1 July 2015 to kill a lion named Cecil. Neither the land owner nor the hunter had a permit or quota to hunt or kill the lion. Hunting regulations in this region require such permits or quotas for a legal hunt. The press statement lists names of the hunter and landowner, but the names have been omitted here, since these have been plastered across the internet with great zeal already.
According to a subsequent report, on 6 July, 2015, the professional hunter took a now infamous American dentist to Hwange National Park. The two went hunting at night with a spotlight, and they spotted Cecil. By tying a dead animal to their vehicle and scenting an area about half a kilometer from the park, they lured Cecil out of the park, where the American dentist shot the lion with a bow and arrow. This shot did not kill Cecil, thus leading to 40 hours of tracking him, after which the hunters shot the lion with a gun. Upon examining the lion, the hunters found that he was fitted with a GPS collar (as part of Hwange Lion Research, funded by Oxford University), which they tried to destroy but failed, because researchers later found the collar.
The American dentist's name likewise has been omitted here, because it also has been plastered across the internet with great zeal, to the point of focusing unfairly on one man and distracting people from a much greater problem.
The Physical Setting
Hwange National Park, where Cecil roamed, is the largest park in Zimbabwe. The park features numerous pans and pumped waterholes to provide drinking and wallowing water for a rich variety of wildlife. For tourists, the park features self-catering lodges, cottages and chalets, a camping and caravan site, picnic sites, bar and restaurant, grocery store, curio shop, petrol station, and conference facilities, according to ... the Hwange National Park website .
The Legislative Setting
According to CITES (Convention On International Trade In Endangered Species Of Wild Fauna And Flora - the organization that issues licenses to import and export animal trophies), … the government of Zimbabwe clearly outlines a strictly regulated quota system for hunting lions. The Zimbabwe Parks and Wildlife Management Authority is the agency that issues quotas each year, which limit the number of animals that hunters can safely remove during a hunting season without inflicting biological damage to the population. The aim of quotas is to ensure that human use of wildlife is sustainable. In general, Zimbabwe's national legislation is very comprehensive to ensure long term survival of the African lion.
Talking The Talk Vs. Walking The Walk
The rules in Zimbabwe's legislation, however, do NOT appear to be working consistently in PRACTICE. To get a feel for reality, a person needs only to read ... a harrowing account of the founding of the Zimbabwean Conservation Task Force ... , by organizational Chariman, Johnny Rodrigues, in which he states:
As time went on, evidence began to emerge that the main poaching rings were controlled by government officials, police, army and National Parks themselves. We reported this to Francis Nhema [then Zimbabwean Minister of the Environment and Tourism] and he refused to have anything more to do with us. We tried to continue with the anti-poaching patrols but National Parks had become hostile towards us and were not keen on working with us any longer.
Corruption In Zimbabwe
Corruption is a term whose meaning encompasses abuse of power, bribery and secret deals. There is an international non-partisan, non-governmental organization that monitors and publicizes information about corruption around the globe. Known as Transparency International, this organization has chapters in over a hundred countries, and it publishes a yearly report that includes perceived levels of corruption in countries all around the world. On a scale of 0 to 100, the organization assigns a number indicating the particular level of corruption in a given country (where 0 is most corrupt and 100 is least corrupt).
On this corruption scale, Zimbabwe rates a 21, one of the lowest ratings in Africa, which generally is perceived as a very corrupt continent (illustrated by the following map):
Worldwide Corruption Map
Click the link to see a larger map, and observe that areas tending towards red or burgundy are the most corrupt, where the version of the map in this article indicates the location of Zimbabwe.
This information puts the account by Johnny Rodrigues (quoted earlier) into better perspective.
In a July 2015 interview with Rodrigues (by Germany's international news broadcasting organization, Deutsche Welle), when asked the question,
And the people of Zimbabwe, do they derive any benefit from the [trophy hunting] activities?, Rodrigues responded:
No. A lot of people give the meat from the carcasses to the people and then they say that they are helping the Zimbabweans. That's not the true reflection. The people who eat the meat, within two days they are back to starving. There are more constructive ways of doing it where it is sustainable. But the trophy hunting of the endangered animals should be banned and let's work on getting the tourists back. If we have the tourists who come and see the beautiful animals that will benefit more than just a couple of people.

Mark Caldwell (2015). Trophy hunting 'no help' to Zimbabwean people, DW (Deutsche Welle,Germany's international broadcaster) interview with Johnny Rodrigues, Chairman of the Zimbabwean Conservation Task Force.
In the same interview, Rodrigues pointed out that poaching laws were NOT being enforced, because of insufficient money to pay staff, a situation that he said could be improved by bringing in more tourists, who would produce far more revenue than trophy hunters would produce over the long run.
These words come from the mouth of someone who is intimately involved with the nuts-and-bolts operation of the Zimbabwean government and economy as it relates to hunting lions. These words come at a time when corruption clearly was a key in the killing of Cecil the lion.
Conservation In Africa Suffers From Corruption
Conservation is more than just protecting life forms. It is managing them in such a way that they can sustain themselves. When humans consume any life form excessively, at a rate faster than it can replenish itself, the life form goes into severe decline and becomes endangered. If well-managed conservation efforts do not take place, then the endangered life form becomes extinct.
African lions are in severe decline, as illustrated by the following map:
Historic And Current Range Of African Lions
Even when countries have laws on their books to manage such declines, these laws do little good, if countries fail to enforce the laws. Such laws amount to mere appearances of effective management. In such cases, effective management does NOT happen, despite the officially stated requirements for it.
Corruption, then, can be a significant factor that undermines conservation efforts, as well as undermining economic benefits derived from the resources conserved. Moreover, this is NOT a new realization.
At least as far back as 1999, in an article titled, Treading Lightly? Ecotourism's Impact On The Environment. ENVIRONMENT, 41(5), 4-9+, M. S. Honey made these observations:
However, despite high income from tourism and low incidence of poaching, these two experimental parks are in trouble. The distribution of tourism profits has long been plagued with corruption and cronyism, enriching a handful of powerful politicians and businessmen. … For decades, Tanzania's commercial hunting has been infected with corruption, mismanagement, and excessive, inappropriate kills.
In a 2005 article, From Nature Tourism To Ecotourism? The Case Of The Ngorongoro Conservation Area, Tanzania. HUMAN ORGANIZATION, 64(1), 75-88, S. Charnley noted:
The question of how to prevent corruption and distribute ecotourism revenue for community benefit is a difficult one, and later in the article, Charnley specifically mentioned money lost through corruption.
In a 2007 article titled, The Impact Of Sport-Hunting On The Population Dyamics Of An African Lion Population In A Protected Area. BIOLOGICAL CONSERVATION, 134: 548-558, A. J. Loveridge, A. W. Searle, F. Murindagomo, and D. W. MacDonald observed:
... poorly defined or mixed objectives, institutional failure, lack of management capacity and corruption may limit the benefits to conservation [of Lions]
Two of the authors of this article were from the Wildlife Conservation Research Unit, Oxford University – the same organization that had collared Cecil and was studying him in 2015.
In another 2007 article titled, Economic And Conservation Significance Of The Trophy Hunting Industry In Sub-Saharan Africa. BIOLOGICAL CONSERVATION, 134, 455–469 P.A. Lindsey, P.A. Rouletb, and S. S. Roman pointed out:
Corruption affects the trophy hunting industry in Africa at multiple levels, from government scouts who overlook the overshooting of quotas, to government ministers favoring certain operators when granting concessions.
In 2008, in a doctoral dissertation over 400 pages long, Hassanali Thomas Sachedina described tourist hunting in Tanzania (a country renown for its trophy quality) as follows:
The tourist hunting industry in Tanzania is non-transparent and controlled by powerful cartels. The WD [Tanzania Wildlife Division] developed a centralized system with little external accountability or transparency, that ended up favoring select outfitters; a system that shielded outfitters from competition and excluded local communities from the economic benefits from hunting. This encouraged the establishment of lower-end outfitters who leased blocks which they heavily utilized to generate adequate turn-over. These companies tend to maximize profits by minimal investment and maximum tax evasion. The WD continued to subdivide hunting blocks, which increased opportunities for corruption. The quota for new sub-divided blocks stayed the same as the original, thus, off-take in an area might double or quadruple. In this way, the WD's focus on revenue generation through trophy fees could indeed have contributed to wildlife declines.
This is just a small part of the story that he described in great detail, based on his personal presence in the country and his face-to-face experiences or interviews with local people from all walks of life there. His doctoral thesis was for the School Of Geography And The Environment, University Of Oxford.
In 2009, M. Honey again, in a different article, Community Conservation And Early Ecotourism. ENVORONMENT, 51(1), 46-56, observed:
- A fundamental issue shaping tourism in the Mara [one of two game reserves in the region] is corruption, with powerful politicians on the NCC [Narok County Council] or within the central government simply pocketing large sums of the tourism money or using their power to get both permits for hotels and other concessions and land for farming.
- Thus the past two decades have witnessed building evidence that the reserve, local people, and tourism are all suffering from the corruption, land grabbing, and general mismanagement.
- ... research has found that regulations controlling the number of vehicles and distance from animals were broken in more than 90 percent of lion and cheetah viewings.
- … it is tourism revenue that largely fuels the corruption and land grabbing within the NCC and the group ranches.
In a 2014 article titled, Where The Wild Things Are. FOREIGN POLICY, (207), 28-32, S. C. Johnson mentioned:
... rampant corruption in South Africa ... and, in reference to rhinos, he pointed out the ... lack of legal enforcement, coupled with widespread corruption within many of the very institutions that are meant to be protecting rhinos.
The peer reviewed literature is ripe with such revealing articles, if a person is willing to search for them. There are other articles besides the ones cited above, all echoing a seemingly common phenomenon of mismanagement, not only of lions, but also of other wildlife, as well.
Comparing the map of the African lion's current range to the map of corruption on the African continent, one might see that regions with the most lions are located in or very near some of the most corrupt nations on Earth (see maps below):
Maps Comparing Lion Range To Corruption In Africa
One might also deduce that trophy hunting dollars flowing into Africa are helping to support business as usual in corrupt nations, where very few trophy hunting dollars actually help local communities in which lions are hunted, and where doubts exist as to how much money formally slated towards maintaining parks or lion ranges actually gets spent for this purpose.
The Overriding Problem
Informed sources are quick to point out that the overriding reason that African lion numbers have declined so drastically is habitat loss. This is an indirect way of saying that human population growth has taken over much of the land area where lions traditionally roamed.
In Africa, between 1960 and 2010, when lion numbers declined a shocking 70%, human population numbers grew over four and a half times during the same period. In other words, four and a half times more humans has reduced lions to well over half their historic numbers in just fifty years. The human population of Africa is currently on target to almost double its current number in just 35 more years. With corruption as a significant factor in efforts to manage remaining areas where lions roam, the future prospects of African lions seem even more bleak.
Many people in Africa are barely surviving off the land. To these people (farmers and ranchers), freely roaming lions are threats to their livestock. These people already kill quite a few lions every year, either as retaliation or as prevention. Trophy hunters only add to these kills, for reasons that have little to do with survival, more to do with the satisfaction of killing itself. Now add corrupt or poor management of the remaining designated conservation ranges, where local people are given no economic benefits from the lions, and a person can readily see that all arguments in favor of lion trophy hunting fail.
Conservation arguments for trophy hunting in Africa turn out to be empty statements about good management THEORY that have few consistent practitioners in FACT, as illustrated by the chart below:
Assessment Of Lion Trophy Hunting In Sixteen African Countries
Economic arguments claiming that local African communities benefit from trophy hunting turn out to be simply false, as illustrated by the graph below:
Where Trophy Hunting Money Goes
How does a rational civilization then allow further killing for mere self gratification?— RG Kernodle
Economics And Ethics
Given the various forces that already threaten to kill off this iconic animal, enlightened people would do well to ask, "How does a rational civilization then allow further killing for mere self- gratification? - by wealthy foreigners who tread on community lands carrying big guns and big egos, brandishing their wealth and power in the faces of those poor people who watch over living trophies for so little in return?"
Killing large animals for pleasure under any circumstances is already a subject of ethical questioning, but to condone and to allow more of such killing for pleasure under these extreme conditions seems unconscionable.
Claiming that trophy hunting of African lions has a place in today's world is untenable because of:
- Exponential human population growth.
- Resultant extreme lion habitat loss.
- Resultant increased killing of lions to protect livestock.
- Corruption and mismanagement of remaining lion ranges.
- Failure to channel economic benefits of lions to local communities.
- Unrelenting (even increasing) demand for lion trophies by outsiders.

CORE Official Opening at Ironbridge (Enginuity) @IronbridgeCORE @london2012fest0July 18th, 2012Culture
As part of the London 2012 Festival, Charlotte and I were honoured to be at the launch of CORE when it was officially opened by artist Kurt Hentschläger, Ruth Mackenzie, Director of the London 2012 Festival and Alan Davey, Chief Executive of Arts Council England.
Having been to the opening of CORE at Enginuity back in April, I don't think I understood it's true significance within the scope of the Cultural Olympiad. However, the launch with Kurt, Ruth and Alan really brought the message home.
This is huge for the UK and indeed Shropshire.
The art work itself is incredibly unique. It is a digital art exhibition which utilizes a whole new approach to art meeting the digital world. International artist Kurt Hentschilager works from a base in Chicago and started the process from pictures sent to him of the gorgeous Enguinity Engine Shop. Working with the measurements, Kurt set off to create a magical, memorizing digital piece.
Before you enter the exhibition, there is a small talk on the process as when you enter into the Engine Shop you're immediately hit with complete darkness. Slowly, your eyes adjust to see a large screen with moving figures. Then you slowly start to hear the sounds that occupy the movement.
There are five screens essentially doing the same thing – however, never do the humanistic forms recreate themselves. The visual along with the audio sounds blend into a marriage to create art that is a privilege to watch.
I was thrilled to be able to interview artist Kurt Hentschläger, Ruth Mackenzie, Director of the London 2012 Festival and Alan Davey, Chief Executive of Arts Council England. Please see VIP Launch of CORE Digital Art Exhibition which can be seen on Virtual Shropshire's channel here.
CORE forms part of the London 2012 Festival where leading artists from all over the world will come together in the UK's biggest ever nationwide festival. Over 1000 events will take place across the country with more than 10 million free opportunities for people to get involved through dance, music, theatre, the visual arts, film and digital innovation.This free entry exhibition will be open daily from 10am to 5pm until Sunday 30th September 2012 at the Engine Shop, Enginuity.
Follow CORE on Twitter: @IronbridgeCORE and Facebook.
This exhibition is worth the trip to Ironbridge alone but it's a great time to visit one of the ten museums within the Ironbridge Gorge Museum Trust.

Statistically speaking, Jimmie Johnson vs. Matt Kenseth at Phoenix International Raceway appears anything but a fair fight.
Johnson far and away owns the best resume in victories, top fives and 10s, laps led and – most important – average finish, 6.4 to Kenseth's 17.2. Kenseth's only victory – three fewer than Johnson – came over a decade ago, in 2002. He hasn't posted a top five at the one-mile track since 2007.
The record book, however, is just that. The past won't necessarily be repeated in the present – as Johnson found out two weeks ago at Martinsville Speedway, where Kenseth out-raced and out-pointed the five-time NASCAR Sprint Cup Series champion, who enjoyed an even greater statistical edge.
Riding a streak of four Phoenix finishes outside the top 10, Kenseth qualified ninth and finished seventh in March in his second race with the No. 20 Joe Gibbs Racing Toyota team.
"We had a really great car there in the spring," said the 2003 NASCAR Sprint Cup Series champion. "We were really good at Loudon (his second Chase victory) and were really good at Martinsville so I'm looking forward to getting there.
"I hope we can go there and run up front and have a car to win."
Kenseth may be disappointed that he enters the season's penultimate event facing a deficit of seven points. But because it's effectively a two-driver and two-team race, he still can control the outcome.
"I wish I was seven points ahead but at the end of the day it's in our hands," said Kenseth. "If you win the last two races … the math works out to where you can still win (the championship).
"The strategy is really easy. As the 48 (Johnson) has proven time and time again, if you're going to win a championship and win races, you have to go through him. We've had the same strategy since the first race of the Chase to the last one. You go try to qualify the best you can, lead as many laps as you can and try to win the race. We're right in it."

Dear Ones,
The Fall Holy Days as outlined in Leviticus 23 are approaching. Yahveh says, "These are My appointed times." (Lev 23:2) These three Fall Feasts are the conclusion of what began with Passover and exemplify and foreshadow Yahshua our Lamb and Yahveh's plan of redemption. The first of these three is the Feast of Trumpets. It begins at sundown on September 8th. This holy time is commonly known to the Jewish community as Rosh Hashanah (Head of the Year) but biblically as the Feast of Trumpets (Yom Teruah) or the Day of the Awakening Blast.
An integral part of this holy time is the blowing of the ram's horn-shofar (trumpet), to alert the people that they must repent before a holy Creator who will judge sin and all who fall short of His righteousness. The shofar was made from a ram's horn reminding the people that Abraham obediently put Isaac on the altar and Yahveh mercifully provided a substitute, a ram caught in a thicket. The sounding of the ram's horn is an awakening and a warning for Yahveh's people to come to Him in humility and repentance. He has provided a substitutionary sacrifice, His only begotten Son, Yahshua our Lamb, to forgive and cleanse us of all sin and unrighteousness.
We live in perilous times and the loud sounding of the shofar is as the Hebrew prophet's words urging the people to escape, to get out of harm's way. A loud shofar is sounding from heaven to earth beseeching the people to repent and flee from the judgments that are coming into a place of safety under the canopy of Yahveh's protection-the blood of Yahshua. "Repent, for the kingdom of Yahveh is at hand."
Where is your soul going to be for eternity, will your name be written in the book of life? The scripture says, "The wages of sin is death but the gift of Yahveh is eternal life in Messiah Yahshua…" (Ro 6:23) and "without the shedding of blood there is no forgiveness of sins." (Lev 17:11 and Heb 9:22) This year the most holy day of Yom Kippur begins at sundown September 17th. It is the Day of Atonement, a day reminding us that our repentant sins are covered and removed by the atoning blood of our Messiah's ultimate and final sacrifice. Yahveh says, "Now is the day of salvation if you hear His voice do not harden your heart."
The final holy day as outlined in Leviticus 23:34 is Sukkot, the Feast of Tabernacles. This year it begins at sundown on September 22nd and finishes sundown September 30th. This time reminds us of Yahveh's provision of shelter for Israel as He led them during her wilderness journeys. We are pilgrims on this earth, just passing through, as we long to enter the Promised Land - the Messianic kingdom of Yahveh the Father and Yahshua the Son-our Lamb.
This last great Biblical Feast points to Messiah's first coming when He came to dwell (tabernacle) among His people. (Jn 1:14) The fulfillment of this Feast is the "blessed hope" of the redeemed which will ultimately be fulfilled and eternally enjoyed by a consecrated remnant of Jews and Gentiles –"one new man" (Eph 2:15) who will experience Yahveh's kingship and holy presence forever. This time is also called the feast of "great rejoicing" that can only be experienced by those who have repented of their sins and have been cleansed by the blood of Yahshua.
May you open your ears and hear the sound of the shofar. May your heart be pierced with true repentance as you confess your sins and are cleansed with the blood of our Yom Kippur sacrifice, Yahshua. Let us continue to behold our Lamb and uphold His precious blood by glorifying Him in word and deed as we "work out our salvation with fear and trembling." May you rejoice that your names are written in the Lamb's book of life as you prepare by His spirit, to enter His soon coming kingdom.
The book of Revelation describes this glorious fulfillment of the Feast of Tabernacles-Sukkot. "I saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from Yahveh … and I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, Behold, the tabernacle of Yahveh is among men, and He shall dwell among them, and they shall be His people, and Yahveh Himself shall be among them…the first things have passed away. And He who sits on the throne said, "Behold, I am making all things new." And He said, "Write, for these words are faithful and true." … I am…the beginning and the end. I will give to the one who thirsts from the spring of the water of life without cost. He who overcomes shall inherit these things, and I will be His Elohim (God) and he will be My son." (Rev 21:2-7)
"To Him who loves us, and released us from our sins by His blood…to Him be the glory and the dominion forever and ever." (Rev 1:5)
Longing and waiting for Yahshua's return and the establishment of His messianic kingdom. In His love and service,
As you gather at this time of the Holy Fall Feasts, the following message could be incorporated as a helpful and loving tool toward repentance and preparation. May Yahveh bless you as you meet together!
The Biblical Feasts of Leviticus 23
The Biblical Feasts as outlined in Leviticus 23, are ordained holy days and are a symbolic picture of the entire redemptive plan of YAHveh, the almighty Creator. "These are the appointed times of YAHveh … a perpetual statute…" (vv. 31,41). Indeed, these prophetic festivals have much to teach all who desire to know their Maker and His eternal plan.
Traditional biblical scholarship acknowledges that YAHveh is the memorial name of the Creator. The title LORD or Adonai (Hebrew) used in most translations of the Bible, are substitutes for His original name YAHveh - Yod Hey Vav Hey (the Hebrew letters spelling His name), which was to be remembered forever (Exodus 3:15). The original divinely given name of the Messiah is YAHshua, meaning YAHveh is Salvation, known to many by the Greek rendered name of Jesus.
We are living in perilous and fearful times. The Bible foretold that these things would happen and it cannot be ignored that the prophesies of scripture are being fulfilled. Inspired by the Creator Himself, we can trust the Holy Bible. The One who created you, longs bless you with the knowledge of His love, purpose and plan for your eternal well being.
Messiah is the fulfillment of all the Biblical Feasts. YAHshua's death and resurrection were the fulfillment of the Feast of Passover (Pesach) and the Feast of Firstfruits (Bikkurim). YAHshua, the Messiah, was crucified in Jerusalem as the perfect Passover Lamb at the hour that multitudes of Jews were sacrificing their "spotless male lambs" (Exodus 12:3-7.) For those who accept His sacrifice, His blood covers the door posts of their hearts and protects them from eternal death (Exodus 12:12). Yahshua was resurrected as fulfillment of the Feast of Firstfruits. He is "the firstfruits" of those to rise from the dead, promising resurrection and eternal life to those who are covered in His, the Passover Lamb's blood (1 Corinthians 15:23.) Shavuot (Pentecost), biblically referred to as the Feast of Weeks, was fulfilled precisely on divine schedule when Yahshua poured out His Holy Spirit at Jerusalem exactly fifty days after the Feast of Firstfruits. On this day, three thousand Jewish souls were brought into the eternal kingdom of YAHveh. YAHshua's sacrificial death opened the way for the promised blessings of Israel to be shared with believing Gentiles who through common faith in His cleansing blood would become united as "one new man" (Ephesians 2:15.)
The Biblical Fall Holy Days are approaching. The first of the three Fall Feasts, is the Feast of Trumpets. This Feast commonly known to the Jewish community as Rosh Hashanah (Head of the Year) but biblically as the Feast of Trumpets (Yom Teruah) or the Day of the Awakening Blast, is a feast calling ones attention to the need for humility and repentance. An integral part of this holy time is the blowing of the ram's horn-shofar (trumpet), to alert the people that they must repent before a holy God who will judge sin and all who fall short of His righteousness. The shofar was made from a ram's horn reminding the people that Abraham obediently put Isaac on the altar and YAHveh mercifully provided a substitute, a ram caught in a thicket. When the ram's horn is sounded it reminds the people, that although YAHveh is warning them to come in humility and repentance, He is merciful to provide a way that their sins can be forgiven, a life for a life, a substitutionary sacrifice. Natural catastrophe requires and brings a loud warning to the people's hearing urging them to escape and leave the path of destruction, to get out of harms way to a place of safety. Likewise in the spiritual a similar alert and loud warning goes forth from heaven to earth beseeching the people to repent and flee from the judgments that are coming!
We are called to be spiritual people, not just fleshly temporal people of this world. We have a soul and that is the issue. Where is your soul going to be for eternity, will your name be written in the book of life? The scripture says, "The wages of sin is death but the gift of YAHveh is eternal life in Messiah YAHshua…" (Romans 6:23) and "without the shedding of blood there is no forgiveness of sins." (Leviticus 17:11 and Hebrews 9:22) The most holy day of Yom Kippur is the Day of Atonement, the day repentant sins are washed over, covered and removed by the blood of the ultimate and final sacrifice. The Messiah's atoning blood averts YAHveh's wrath upon man's sins fulfilling all that Yom Kippur pointed to. "Now is the day of salvation if you hear His voice do not harden your heart."
The celebration of Sukkot, the Feast of Tabernacles, is in remembrance of YAHveh's provision of shelter for Israel as He led them during her wilderness journeys. This last great Biblical Feast speaks of Messiah's first coming when He came to dwell (tabernacle) among His people. This feast will ultimately be fulfilled and enjoyed by a redeemed remnant of Jews and Gentiles who experience His kingship and holy presence forever. This feast is one of great rejoicing that can only be eternally experienced by those who have repented and are redeemed by the blood of YAHshua the Passover Lamb, who is the final Yom Kippur atonement for our sins. The Savior of our souls extends His invitation: "Whoever is thirsty, let him come; and whoever wishes, let him take the free gift of the water of everlasting life." (Revelation 22:17)
By Terrye Goldblum Seedman
Are you ready and waiting for your glorious soon coming Savior? Time is rolling up like a scroll and the Almighty's sovereign proclamation to judge the world in righteousness and truth is an impending reality, as trustworthy as labor pains that come upon a pregnant woman. "Let the heavens be glad, and let the earth rejoice before Yahveh (God) for He is coming to judge the earth in righteousness and in His faithfulness." (See Ps 96:11,13) Yahshua, the Savior has infinite love for all mankind, He "does not want anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance" receiving forgiveness through His sacrificial cleansing blood. (2Pe 3:9)
Regarding the last days, our Redeemer said in Luke Chapter 21, "Be careful, or your hearts will be weighed down with dissipation, drunkenness and the anxieties of life, and that day will close on you unexpectedly like a trap… Be always on the watch, and pray that you may be able to escape all that is about to happen, and that you may be able to stand before the Son of Man." (Lk 21:34,36)
We must pay attention to our Savior's warning against "dissipation" which is the squandering and wasting of our time, energy, and resources. Dissipation is also defined as selfish indulgence and the extravagant pursuit of pleasure. It denotes any diversion that entices us and draws us away from Yahshua and the high and holy calling He has for His redeemed children.
The clock is ticking, the grains of sand are falling in the hourglass; very little time is left! We are exhorted "to redeem the time for the days are evil." (Eph 5:16) An important question is – What are you doing of eternal value at this most critical juncture in world history and its threshold into eternity? Most people are dulled and lulled into a stupor because of the varied enticements and preoccupations of this perishing world, including man-made religious agendas, which can deceive, if possible, even the elect. (See Mt 24:24)
The Heavenly Father, Yahveh is continually crying out, "Come out of the world and be separate and holy." (See 2Cor 6:17) He gave His Son to die on the stake at Calvary, to cleanse you of your sins and to purchase you with His precious blood. This is the unfathomable price He willingly paid to give you eternal life and deliverance from the powers of darkness and deception that rule this world system. True "born again" believers can no longer be half-hearted lip servers, who cater to the flesh's craving and longings for the things of this world. His Holy Spirit warns, "Do you not know that friendship with the world is hostility toward the Almighty? Therefore whoever wishes to be a friend of the world makes himself an enemy of Yahveh (God)." (Jas 4:4) "Do not love the world nor the things in the world… the lust of the eyes and the boastful pride of life, is not from the Father, but it is from the world. The world is passing away, and also its lusts; but the one who does the will of Yahveh lives forever." (1Jn 2:15-17)
The love and indulgence of self is an enemy to the love and service of Yahveh the Most High God.
"The enemy comes to deceive the inhabitants of the earth." (Rev 13:14) The Heavenly Father loves you and is trying to get your undivided attention, wholehearted devotion, and love filled obedience, lest you be ensnared in the world and suffer its coming judgments. Hear His heartbeat, "Open your ears, wake up, O sleeper, now is the day of salvation." (Eph 5:14 and 2Cor 6:2)
"Humble yourselves in the sight of Yahveh." Our righteous King longs to bring you to a place of "godly sorrow that leads to true repentance." (2 Cor 7:10) He is faithful and just to cleanse and consecrate your repentant hearts with the precious blood of His Son. Judgment is coming upon all who walk according to the flesh and live to satisfy their selfish desires and self justified prideful, stubborn, and often rebellious ways.
We must "find out what pleases The Almighty and do it." (Eph 5:10) "For this you know with certainty, no immoral, or impure person, or covetous man, who is an idolater, or the cowardly, or those who practice magic arts, and everyone who loves and practices falsehood, has an inheritance in the kingdom of Messiah…" (See 1 Cor 6:9, Rev 21:8 and Rev 22:15) May the fire of His eternal presence bring conviction, compelling you to "cast aside every sin that so easily besets you." (Heb 12:1) In order to be obedient and pleasing to our righteous King, we must "walk by the Spirit, so we will not carry out the desires of the flesh." (Gal 5:16) "without holiness no one will ever see Yahveh (God)." (Heb 12:14) The Heavenly Father is purifying a redeemed remnant, to become as a beloved holy bride, who is preparing and longing to be with her soon coming eternal bridegroom. (See Jn 3:29 and Rev 19:7)
Are you eagerly preparing and longingly waiting for your Savior's return? Are you making every effort to know your precious Redeemer more intimately in the spirit, adoring Him with an ever-increasing love, because He is becoming your utmost heart's desire? Are the desires of His heart your interests? Apostle Paul said, "Many seek after their own interests, not those of Messiah Yahshua." (Php 2:21)
Are you struggling with a conflict of interest? What is competing for your attention and affection? Are there cravings for other things that make you like an adulterer, idolater, and His enemy because He is not enough for you? Are the cares and preoccupations of daily life hindering your faith, love, and growing relationship to our great King and Redeemer?
Yahshua the Messiah said, "Make every effort (strive with all your being) to enter through the narrow door, because many I tell you, will try to enter and will not be able to." (Lk 13:24-28)
True disciples must "count the cost" to forsake everything to follow the Good Shepherd on that narrow path that leads into His eternal righteous kingdom. The redeemed remnant will continue to "work out their salvation with fear and trembling" as they glorify the Father and bring the love and uncompromised truth of the Savior to a lost and dying world.
Yahshua continually cautions His disciples, "be on guard" against the deceptive pull of this world, including its man-tainted religious systems that compromise and often nullify the very words of Yahveh His Father; the full counsel of the Old and New Testament Scriptures. "For this is the love of Yahveh, that we keep His commandments; and His commandments are not burdensome." (1Jn 5:3)
He made it clear that although many would want to, only a remnant- "a few would enter that narrow gate and that narrow path that leads to eternal life." (Mt 7:13-14) Messiah elaborates, "Not everyone who says to Me, 'Lord, Lord,' ('Master, Master,') will enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father who is in heaven will enter. many would say to Me on that day, 'Master, Master,' did we not prophesy in Your name, and in Your name cast out demons, and in Your name perform many miracles?' "And then I (Yahshua) will declare to them, 'I never knew you; depart from me, you who practice lawlessness (the breaking of Yahveh's commandments).' (Mt 7:21-23)
Our Savior described the tragic reality of so many religious people who thought their destiny was sealed in the eternal promised land, His forthcoming Messianic kingdom. Instead the many were assigned a place with the hypocrites where there will be everlasting "weeping and gnashing of teeth." "Many are called but few are chosen." (Mt 22:14)
Our precious sacrificial Lamb has poured out His atoning blood to redeem you to be His very own, now and forever. He says, "Behold, I am coming soon and My rewards are with Me. I will give to everyone according to what they have done;" (Rev 22:12) whether by Messiah's indwelling Holy Spirit, which brings eternal dividends, or by man's vain dead end efforts. "There is a way which seems right to a man, but its end is the way to death." (Pr 14:12)
Dear ones take your eyes off this dying world! Our Savior is crying out, "Look up, lift up your heads, because your redemption is drawing near." (Lk 21:28) Our Heavenly Father's infinite love, mercy, and grace, when humbly and wholeheartedly sought, will ensure that you will be "more than a conqueror through Yahshua Messiah " and endure victoriously to the end. To Him be all the praise, honor, and glory!
"Inasmuch as it is appointed for men to die once and after this comes judgment, so Messiah also, having been offered once to bear the sins of many shall appear a second time for salvation without reference to sin, to those (the few) who eagerly await Him." (Heb 9:27-28) Don't delay, make ready, be waiting, rejoice, he is coming soon!
I humble myself in prayer before You, Yahveh my Heavenly Father and Yahshua my beloved Savior,
I ask you to convict me of my many sins causing me to have true godly sorrow that leads me to life changing repentance. I confess that I have been selfish, stubborn, rebellious and prideful in many ways. Forgive me for disobedience and catering to my love for the things of this world. Please cleanse me with the blood of Yahshua the Lamb. I need Your help to make every effort to ascend on Your narrow path, I want to be part of the few, the redeemed righteous remnant, who seek and do Your will. Draw me so close to You that I will not be anxious or fearful in the midst of these perilous times. Give me a hunger and a thirst for righteousness, a desire to pray and read Your Scriptures, so that I may be obedient to you in my words and actions. I want to redeem the time that is left; "Teach me to number my days, that I might present to you a heart of wisdom." (Ps 90:12) I acknowledge that apart from You I can do nothing. I humbly thank You for strengthening my faith through Your cleansing blood and the power of Your Name and Spirit, that I can endure victoriously to the end as I eagerly await your return.

Yes I have a dear friend, who has two sons and she has without fail supported them, watched them practice and also driven them all over to attend matches, oh how I felt for her in the cold wet weather, I never ever wanted to be a Football Mum!
I have to admit though I have two sons and it was going to happen at some point and that point is now!
Max my gorgeous young man, almost 9, wanted to join the local football team, so I phoned up and was told they had training the following morning and to bring Max along a few times to see how he gets on and enjoys it, well I was surprised from just making enquiries late Saturday evening, that the following day I was to become just another Football Mum!
Max was so excited bless him, he knew others in his class and school that played for the local team, Cholsey Bluebirds but he admitted on our way to the pitch, that bless him he had butterflies in his tummy, my heart went out to him and I said did he want to go home(yes I was in a way hoping) as it was pouring with rain, but no Max was so keen and so we went, the 4 children and I and we dropped Max off and returned with 15 minutes to spare, to watch the team practice, Max was beaming from ear to ear and the energy was running on overdrive.
It was cold and we got wet, but Max was so very happy, that I had this sudden inner happiness that My son was playing football, maybe he could be the next David Beckham or Alan Shearer, I stood there smiling myself with pride at my son the little football player!
Max's brother was tucked up in the buggy and his sisters seemed oblivious to the falling rain, running around after a spare ball, we got thoroughly wet and a bit muddy too, but it was fun, yes it was, so I now resign myself to becoming a proper Football Mum, I keep wanting to say Soccer Mom, but that isn't right.
When we arrived home, Max went straight into the shower, whilst I made the warmest quick thing I could think of and it went down well with all 4 children, Hot Crumpets with Hot Chocolate too, was a wonderful finish to our first experience of Football training!
This is the girls in there new waterproofs!
I went the following day and purchased wet weather outfits, for the three younger ones, as we are going to have to go no matter the weather to support Max, but we might as well try to stay warm and dry, roll on next Sunday and his 2nd practice session, I just hope he enjoys it even more so, as I have this week to go out and buy some proper football studded boots and some shin pads.

Neuroplasticity for persistent vertigo and tinnitus
Neuroplasticity is your body's ability to change itself. This is an essential part of the recovery process for tinnitus and vertigo.

Recent work has demonstrated that the symptoms of common vestibular disorders may be linked with certain environmental factors.
TCM has been used for thousands of years to treat a myriad of illnesses, including inner ear balance problems.
Medical practices have significantly increased the implementation of patient-centered medical home (PCMH) practices over time to try and provide better care for patients with chronic illnesses, according to an article published online January 5 in Health Affairs.
New research from a University of the Sunshine Coast PhD student has shown that seniors who exercise in groups are likely to have a reduced risk of falls later down the track.
Vaughan Nicholson, a 33-year-old physiotherapist of Ferny Hills in Brisbane, conducted a three-part study looking at the impact of group fitness on more than 100 adults aged 55-75.
His PhD in Sport and Exercise Science specifically analysed the benefits for seniors who participated in group BodyBalance and BodyPump classes over a 12 to 26 week period as well as an interactive virtual balance game.
Winter holidays—do they fill you with joy or with worries about gift-giving and family gatherings? Do summer vacations leave you relaxed or fretful over travel and money? If you're feeling stressed out over supposedly fun things, it might be time to reassess. Take a few moments to learn how stress affects your health and what you can do about it.
Falling can be scary. It can happen on a slippery surface, on ice or just when you're not paying attention. Oftentimes, it happens to older adults, in any location, on any surface.
Study finds some patients had to discontinue the scan, or the hearing device was impaired by magnetic field
By Robert Preidt
Some people with cochlear implants experience pain, discomfort and problems with the implant's internal magnet when they undergo an MRI scan, a new study finds.
By Sandra G. Boodman, Washington Post, November 24, 2014
'That's it — I'm done," Rachel Miller proclaimed, the sting of the neurologist's judgment fresh as she recounted the just-concluded appointment to her husband. Whatever was wrong with her, Miller decided after that 2009 encounter, she was not willing to risk additional humiliation by seeing another doctor who might dismiss her problems as psychosomatic.

text: article Strong Authentication Updated 05-Jul-2017•Originally posted on 26-Feb-2016 by Jason Rahm F5 article apm dcsecurity16 google authenticator safenet security yubikey It's authentication, people! Only, wait for it….STRONGER (yes i did use the strong html tag for that.) Strong authentication is a nebulous term. Many will interchange strong authentication with two-factor authentication (2FA), but that is only one method for strong authentication, not necessarily a requirement. You could have a series of "something you know" challenges that makes the authentication process more in depth and thus stronger, but doesn't require one or more of the other multi-factor pillars in "something you have" or "something you are." So what strong authentication solutions does F5 support? The Access Policy Manager actually shines here, because it is vendor agnostic. You can plug and play a myriad of authentication systems into the process and off you go. Some of the different authentication methods include: LDAP/S HTTP/S RADIUS TACACS+ If your authentication services can talk one or more of these protocols, APM will support it. We've posted solutions on DevCentral with Google Authenticator (LTM via ldap and APM,) Yubico Yubikey (LTM and APM,) as well as RSA SecurID over the years. There are some nuanced differences between all the solutions, but this diagram from Brett Smith's APM and Yubikey article linked previously shows the general process for APM's support of multi-factor authentication. This directory server could be Active Directory, LDAP, or RADIUS to a cloud service like SafeNet's Authentication Services as discussed in this solution brief. Beyond just authenticating local services, these strong authentication services can be utilized with federation as well, using APM's SAML support for SP and iDP deployments. SafeNet has quality write-ups for their APM-integrated enterprise and cloud iDP strong authentication services available on their site. For more information about how these authentication services plug in to the larger SAML federation services, take a look at John's lightboard Lesson on the topic.

He escaped
They let him out! My dad is home from the hospital and will receive some home visits from a nurse over the next couple of weeks as well as several visits to the doctor. Things improved quickly for him because yesterday the doctor told me there was no way he was going home before Monday. Thanks for all the prayers. He's so much happier to be at home!

Despite the lack of updates recently, quite a lot of work has been done on the machine.
I've evened out the surface of the cabinet including repainting and filling various dents and differences that would be visible through the decals when applied. That took quite a while to do. With a little luck the surface should be ideal for the decals now.
I've also begun recreating the speaker panel on the head, since the one I have now is not ideal - the display hole is a bit too small and the panel itself is slightly arched due to the nature of the wood I've used. I'm thinking it should be possible creating the panel in acrylic to get small or no edges between the artwork and the "glass". I might also do a combination with a wooden frame overlaid with a acrylic surface.
I've begun the selection of sound clips and combining them with the ruleset. I've used up around 180 samples out of 255 possible for sound effects and around 30 samples for music - while still filling all the major elements. The extra slots can be used to create variations of the elements already in place, avoiding hearing the same sample whenever you hit the same target repeated times, for example. I could also flesh out the current features allowing additional Splicers to take part etc.
The plan is to have two identical sets of sound samples for the sound effects and one unique set for music.
With a little planing I could vary the two sound effect sets slightly - for instance, all mode start samples for a specific mode could be limited to only one card since no other samples will be playing during that time.
But I do want to avoid this since that would require special code to handle each case instead of just "playSound(x)". But in case space is running out...
Some of the features I've planed I'm having troubles finding sound samples for. I might have to wing it a little and either create my own samples or use external sound samples outside the Bioshock universe...

I feel your pain.
A lot of my patients have to deal with "mail order" pharmacies for chronic medications. Often insurers require that these "services" be used. They often present challenges for healthcare providers. Now I have a perspective from the other side of things.
My husband has been on chemotherapy since April. His regimen involves an oral drug that he takes at home, with few side effects. It is expensive, and our health insurance makes us use a specific national pharmacy. He is to get a round of treatment next week, so I called yesterday to ship the next refill. The pharmacy said they did not have the prescription. OK, I contacted the doctor's office, and they called it in (even though they had faxed back the refill 2 weeks ago - yes, medicine is keeping the fax machine alive).
This morning, I called to arrange the shipment. The prescription , given verbally, is still being "scanned in." They cannot verify the claim and arrange shipment until that happens.
Never mind that we only use this service because our insurer demands it. Never mind that we have filled this prescription monthly for 5 months. None of that is adequate to allow them to schedule the shipment. I have to call back in 2 hours. They cannot make a note to ship when approved. No, I have to call again during my clinic. I can't imagine dealing with this "service" without my medical background.
How this level of red tape saves anyone money is beyond my understanding.

Yesterday we took a few hours to explore some of Bayridge before Sandy hit. We grabbed some coffee at our local shop and headed down towards the water. After staring at the Verranzano bridge for a few minutes we started up Shore Ave, towards Owls Head Park {once we hit the park I got cranky so we headed back} The good news is that in addition to having Owls Head park 20 blocks from our place, we also have ANOTHER city park that's like 40 blocks long, within walking distance, on the water, that has soccer fields, baseball fields, tennis courts, dog runs, a pier and general giant empty fields of grassy land. AND just 2 avenues away from our apartment towards the water in the other direction is a neighborhood that could rival the nicest neighborhood in any suburb you've ever seen. Mansions on beautiful fall tree-lined streets, three stories tall, ranging from victorian to colonial styles. Aside from the architecture, we knew we were headed into a foreign land as soon as we heard lawnmowers.
Bayridge. Who would have known?

Using a bootable live cd disk image mounted on the hard drive

Giselda was about 5'11" tall, around 15 stone (solid with it), lovely long hair, gorgeous wide hips, tree trunk legs that I instantly wanted to wrap myself around.
My Beloved Griselda - Part One - The Beginning
I was getting myself ready to go and pick up Griselda, as arranged, from the cottage she was staying in for her visit to England, to visit her penfriend and my mates wife Susan.
As I was shaving, I was already getting palpitations from certain regions of my anatomy, at the very thought of once more gaining access to Griselda's foibles and bodily parts.. I came out of dream I was in, and thought I'd better give her a ring to make sure all was still on as planned.
Surprisingly when I called, Susan said Griselda was shaving too. She passed on the message that she would meet me at the garden gate at 1100hrs.
I arrived, and when I saw her smile break out, I had to control my legs on the clutch.
I got out to meet her, and she picked me up gave me a wonderful slobbering kiss, put me down, and cuddled my groin area briefly.
We arrived back at the flat, and she did a tour of it and showed her approval.
I was about to make a cuppa and something for us to eat, when she called from the bedroom - that was the end of the cuppa and cakes idea.
She stood there naked, dominant, hirsute, and demanding attention.
I opened my arms and clasped them around her, then did the same to her other leg.
I was thrown on the bed, and encased in her muscular body as she dived on top... heaven!
I thought my ribs would have been broken, but didn't care, as she rolled over and lifted me on top of her.
I licked her armpits, chest, neck, (avoiding the boils) as she turned over again, crushing my pulsing body beneath her now sweating stomach muscles.
Bliss ensued!
The planned trip to the cinema had to be delayed for another day (thankfully) as she was obviously intent and glad to remain available for more romping for the rest of the day!
My submissions that day were pitiful and pleasurable, I reached new heights of delirium in response to Griselda's handling of the situation.
We went and collected her things from the cottage.
From that day, she stayed at my flat for the duration of her holiday... and my pleasure!
The memories of Griselda are painful - due the fact that they are only memories now.

I have these tiles that I got at an auction (where else?) and badly want to use them on the walls/ backsplash. Cabins, canoes, pine trees...they are perfect. Except the colors.
(Such a frivolous dilemma.)
If you're careful about the red (not too bright)you use, you could certainly use the green and white ones. I probably wouldn't mix both the blue and green with red. Or you could could just use the white ones in the kitchen mixed with a more ordinary tile of the same color.
Are they a standard size that you can mix them with another tile?
Steve--you are brilliant! I'm thinking of a darkish red (old barn?). The greens and whites would be fine--I don't have to use the blue, and they are a standard size. Why didn't I think of that. :)ReplyDelete
I agree. If you don't use the blue ones, warm colors will go great with the green and white. Steve IS brilliant. and yes, not too red.ReplyDelete
Lucky you lookin forward to a new kitchen!
Love the photos especially the blue hydrangea.
Happy kitchen planning
Just a thought...red/white/ blue is a classic Early American design theme. designer friend of the family did her whole house in those colors, using dark brick red and muted dark blues, and it was gorgeous! So if it were me, I'd choose the white and blue over the green.ReplyDelete
I think both colour schemes are gorgeous and would be happy with either! What a lovely dilemma!ReplyDelete
I think the blue and white without the green would look lovely against autumnal colours.ReplyDelete
Such beautiful tiles. Colour combination is a point for your kitchen, I understand. You can try to do like you do jigsaw puzzle against the wall and the floor. :)ReplyDelete
Blue and white here. The tiles are so scrumptiously beautiful and to me the blue are so much more beautiful than the green ones and I could easily see the blue and white with that beautiful floor and red cabinets. However, to me all white would be the best choice but I don't know if you have enough of the white to do that. I guess it would really depend on how large a area you're thinking of tiling. Blue and green should have equal value since they're both secondary colors so that it wouldn't matter which you use. Wow Jen, these are really hard decisions you're facing. Not joking.ReplyDelete
Looking at that pink kitchen again, you did the right think to demolish it. It will not be lamented, but we will all be looking forward to seeing its future incarnation.
Those tiles are great--you will have to find just the right use for them.
--Road to Parnassus
Who made your tiles? I think once most of your kitchen is completed, you'll know which tiles to put to use - accent tiles among flat colored ones, I would think. Maybe some framed on the walls. Love the flooring.ReplyDelete
I got them at an auction, so I don't know who made them. I think they were store samples, because there are so many shades. You make a good point--figuring out a backsplash is probably the last major thing I have to do, and getting filler tiles won't take long, so I can wait a while. Thanks!Delete
Hello Jen
You are making great progress. The tiles are beautiful. I am cautious of using tiles on walls in colours as they are permanent and as my husband reminds me, will it affect the buyer's decision should we sell. I would prefer the white textured tiles, used with a white smooth tile. Could you use the beautiful coloured tiles on side table?
Good luck with your decision.
Helen xx
We are planning to keep this house in the family so, I don't have to worry about buyers. If my sons want to knock out the tiles when we're gone they can!
All of the tiles have relief, so they wouldn't really work as a table--it would be very bumpy, also very beautiful.
Dear Jen.
lots of work going on there in your home.
I myself like your tiles.. The sage light green or the white i would choose. they will both go with red.
or any other color really.
wish you luck.

how big is the kitchen? is there a way to transition from one colour scheme to another with enough space in between?ReplyDelete
First, I love love love the floors. The tiles are beautiful, I like the idea of white with an interspersed blue here and there. And the green ones, frankly you can give them to me since I need a backsplash that I've been mulling over forever and my kitchen walls are a moss color just like those tiles.ReplyDelete
Oh, the floors are beautiful! I can't wait to see what it ends up like. To me, a good green goes well with anything (because I like it so much, I tend to use colors that mix with it). The darker blue looks like the color of an autumn sky, but I'm not sure if I would like it with the barn red. They are such wonderful tiles.ReplyDelete
What a very difficult question! I cannot answer it! The tiles, however, are very beautiful indeed! I am certain you will find a way with all the suggestions my blogging fellows make! ChristaReplyDelete
Damn Amelia got here first talking about "helping" by taking the tiles away. What she said.
Blue and red are my favorite colors together. And a dull barn red would be perfect with the blue/white tiles.
this is very exciting. and I'n sure the result will be fabulous.
xo Jane
Hi Jen!
I was just writting a comment on yur kitchen post and then it was gone!!!
Anyway I need to tell you that for me its ok. I mean I enjoy reading about anything you write your kitchen plans included .They make you somwhow a real person... Well you are of course a real person but I think your know what I mean. It so weird in the blog world. some times I do wonder if people behind some blog are actually real...
THere is always the back thought that others thing we are bragging (like maybe on my last post about my trip to Norwich or my drawing posts in my case) but we can only hope they take thing as they are. Pieces of our lives and a way to come in contact eachother.
I must say from what I've seen I do like your kitchen style!
lots of love
sorry about all the mistakes!ReplyDelete
