Proper American flag etiquette applies not just on our patriotic holidays, but year-round! There are many hidden rules and laws about how the flag should be treated on certain occasions and under certain circumstances. But not to worry; we have all the do's and don'ts on how your American flag should be respected when you display it at your home or workplace!
Time and Occasions for Display
- The flag should be lighted at all times, either by sunlight or by an appropriate light source at night.
- The flag should be flown in fair weather unless the flag is designed for inclement weather use.
- The flag should be displayed every day.
- The flag should be hoisted briskly and lowered ceremoniously.
- The flag should be displayed daily on or near the main administration building of every public institution.
- The flag should be displayed in or near every polling place on election days.
- The flag should be displayed during school days and in or near a schoolhouse.
Position and Manner of Display
- The flag should not be displayed on a float in a parade except from a staff.
- The flag should not be draped over the hood, top, sides, or back of a vehicle, a railroad train or a boat. It must be fixed on a staff.
- No other flag or pennant should be placed above the American flag. If on the same level, the other flag or pennant must be displayed to the right of the flag.
- The flag of the United States of America should be at the center and at the highest point of the group when a number of flags of States or are grouped and displayed from staffs.
- When flags of two or more nations are displayed, they are to be flown from separate staffs of the same height.
- When the flag is displayed from a staff projecting horizontally or at an angle from the window sill, balcony, or front of a building, the union of the flag should be placed at the peak of the staff unless the flag is at half-staff.
- When the flag is displayed over the middle of the street, it should be suspended vertically with the union to the north in an east and west street or to the east in a north and south street.
- The flag, when flown at half-staff, should be first hoisted to the peak for an instant and then lowered to the half-staff position. The flag should be again raised to the peak before it is lowered for the day.
- When the flag is used to cover a casket, it should be so placed that the union is at the head and over the left shoulder. The flag should not be lowered into the grave or allowed to touch the ground.
Respect for Flag
- The flag should never be used as apparel, bedding or drapery.
- The flag should never be displayed upside down….except as a distress signal!
- The flag should not be dipped to any person or thing. Regimental colors, state flags and organization or institutional flags are to be dipped as a mark of honor.
- The flag should never touch anything beneath it, such as the ground, the floor, water or merchandise.
- The flag should never be carried flat or horizontally, but always aloft and free.
- The flag should never be used as a covering for a ceiling.
- The flag should never have placed upon it, nor on any part of it, nor attached to it any mark, insignia, letter, word, figure, design, picture, or drawing of any nature.
- The flag should never be used for advertising purposes in any manner.
- No part of the flag should ever be used as a costume or athletic uniform.
- The flag, when it is in such condition that it is no longer a fitting emblem for display, should be destroyed in a dignified way, preferably by burning.
Most importantly, when putting up an American flag, always keep in mind:
The flag represents a living country and is itself considered a living thing.
Happy Independence Day weekend from Shea Homes Arizona to you!
Note: At Shea Homes, we proudly display the American Flag at our many sales offices across the Valley. We do our best to comply with all state and federal guidelines and mandates. Due to the height of the flag poles and size of the American flags in our communities, they are not safe for our sales and construction staff to maintain. In most instances, we must employ a flag company with trained technicians and proper equipment to handle replacements, raising and lowering, as well as proper night lighting.

Georgia Wild Flowers
15 comments:
A whole raft of interesting mysteries Skeeter. It's fun to deal with these kind of puzzles so long as you don't get frustrated....:)ReplyDelete
I think the one you think is trillum or ginger is in the Arum family. Love your wild flowers. Lucky you having a Lobelia growing. They are such a beautiful blue.ReplyDeleteReplies
I only wish those pretty blue bloomers were in my garden where I can enjoy them more then by the creek out of sight. LOL... I did plant a Blue Lobelia in my garden but the wild ones are so much larger and have more blooms. Ha, go figure....Delete
Great wildflowers. That one plant does look like a fern, but I've never seen those berries or whatever they are on a fern. It will be interesting to see what these are.ReplyDelete
The first one sure does look like Great Blue lobelia. The second one I immediately recognized as smartweek. I had to Google Lady's thumb and found it to be the exact same thing. I learned a new name for it! Thanks! I think both your pink and white flowers are some type of boneset. In the same family type as Joe Pye I believe. Your ginger looks an awful lot like Asian ginger. It is more pointed and more coloration. I have some here. The last fern is Sensitive fern. It is a native fern and is called sensitive because after only one light frost it turns brown right away. I have it here by my a/c. Love it! I plan to move some to the pond area. You just reminded me. Have a great day! Yes, gotta watch that weedwhacking of the wildflowers....:)ReplyDeleteReplies
Doesn't it drive a gardener nuts to see so many different names for the same darn plant? Ha, I had never known the name Lady's Thumb until my research but know it well in my gardens as a PEST for sure! Seems whenever I toss a wild flower mix, these things show up as well. Grrrrrrr..... I saw the name Boneset with the Joe Pye Weed research as well so figured I was on the right track with that one. But that lacy white, I think it shall remain a mystery for a while... Hum, Sensitive Fern, I shall look that one up now! Thanks for that naming tip...Delete
Very nice wildflower tour. Hope you figure out the mystery plants.ReplyDelete
They are all pretty, Skleeter. I've seen some of these but didn't know their names.ReplyDelete
Skeeter how lovely all these wildflowers...ReplyDelete
The fluffy white ones ahead of the Arum look like some kind of Eupatorium.ReplyDelete
Just discovered your blog and am trolling through old entries so I hope you get this. I am fairly certain the evergreen groundcover is some species of Hexastylis and the "fern" Botrypus virginianus or Rattlesnake Fern which I also have on my property outside Franklin TN. I hate not knowing what the plants are on my much smaller property and have spent many hours looking online and in books. Good luck!ReplyDeleteReplies
Thanks for your help in this mystery saga Rick and Welcome to "In the Garden" Rattlesnake fern makes sense as those blooms/berries look just like the rattle to a rattlesnake. I have see them up close and personal as we had a rattler in our garden once!Delete

New U.N. Iran Resolution Considered
Tuesday, December 11, 2007
A draft U.N. resolution on Iran circulating among the world's major powers calls for new sanctions against the elite Quds Force and a top Iranian bank as well as "restraint" and "vigilance" on the supply, sale or transfer of arms to Iran, according to sources familiar with the proposal.
The draft, to be discussed today by political experts from the United States, Russia, China, Britain, France and Germany, recommends freezing the assets of entities and individuals suspected of engaging in nuclear proliferation and weapons delivery systems or violating two earlier Security Council sanctions resolutions, the sources said. It also calls for a travel ban -- prohibiting entry or transit in all U.N. member countries -- for many of the same people.
The proposal specifically designates the Quds Force, the foreign operations branch of the Revolutionary Guard Corps, for exporting arms prohibited under previous resolutions and for proliferation activity. It is highly unusual for the world body to sanction a military wing of a member state, officials say. The proposed measure would freeze any of its assets abroad, make business dealings with it illegal and isolate it financially, they add.
The Quds Force numbers up to 15,000 and runs Tehran's foreign covert operations, including arms, aid and training for groups such as Hezbollah, Hamas, Palestinian Islamic Jihad and Iraq's Shiite militias, U.S. and European officials say.
The draft of the long-delayed third U.N. sanctions resolution is still being negotiated, and early versions are often tougher than the final product. But its scope is significantly wider than the two previous resolutions, even though it does not go as far as the sweeping sanctions the United States unilaterally imposed in October against the 125,000-member Revolutionary Guard Corps, the Quds Force, and three banks, officials say.
Officials from several countries said the proposal indicates that there is still an appetite for significant new punitive measures against Iran even after the U.S. National Intelligence Estimate last week concluded that Tehran had halted its nuclear weapons program four years ago.
"The international community is not being dissuaded by the NIE and is not going to be led down a cul-de-sac because of the noise of the moment. It's still focused on one salient fact. Iran can't run about defying the international community," said a European diplomat. A senior official from a second European country said the intelligence assessment "might complicate things . . . but we do not intend to lessen the pressure."
The resolution is not based on whether Iran has an active nuclear weapons program -- an issue about which the five veto-wielding countries on the Security Council have disagreed. After meeting with Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice on Friday at NATO headquarters in Brussels, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov told reporters that the NIE "fully confirms the information that we have: that there is no military element in their nuclear program" and added: "We hope very much that these negotiations with Iran will continue."
The European Union has spearheaded talks with Tehran on its nuclear programs and efforts to get it to cooperate with the international community now.
The new resolution instead focuses on Tehran's insistence that it will continue enriching uranium, a process that could in the future be subverted from a peaceful energy program to develop a bomb. Iran now has 3,000 functioning centrifuges, a major technical milestone, giving Tehran the capacity to produce tens of kilograms of low-enriched uranium each month.
On that issue, the five permanent members of the Security Council plus Germany do share deep concern, diplomats involved in the negotiations say.
"Iran is getting to a stage where they will have weapons-grade enriched uranium," said the European diplomat, who spoke on the condition of anonymity because negotiations are underway. "Iran is also still in breach of every resolution. Most of the allies -- although Russia and China are dragging their feet -- and a lot of the international community are trying to focus on this in a dispassionate way and say that they're not cooperating with the U.N. mandate."

It all starts with the weather. Comes a day when summer…
Glade Creek Falls
In a canyon of the Gorge
prills Glade Creek Falls—
beholden, as is proper, to the New.
Only the Nile is older.
Obscenely young, prey to impulse,
we indenture to the Glade—
our trysting place—and to each other.
Like the Bible, like Mythography,
we truss, foretold, in writ scrolls of eternity.

text: Hi! I'm looking for advice on overcoming hand injury. Here's my story. It's coming up on one year now since the worst thing that ever happened to me. Last November, I stepped out of my house and went to push the storm door closed. I pushed on the nice decorative glass and when the door hit the jam, the glass shattered and I put my hand (the left) right through it. The glass broke into jagged shards and two of them went into my hand. One entered the base of my middle finger and went nearly right through the hand. The other put a deep cut below the ring finger. At the emergency room they just verified that the tendons were not completely severed and sewed me back up and sent me home. Well, all was not well. I had partially severed the tendons for my middle finger and basically could not use my hand at all for at least three months. After a long time of worrying about it I finally was referred to a hand specialist for physical therapy. It had been healing wrong too long and I had to go to therapy for a long time before I could finally move my hand without pain. So, now things are steadily but very slowly getting better. I'm playing OK, but it still bothers me. I have excersizes that my physical therapist gave me and putty to squeeze and rubber band gripping devices and all that. But it is still not completely better and I've pretty much given in to the thought that it may never be. Have any of you ever had to overcome an injury like this? Can you give me any advice for working on my hand to help get it back in shape? Any advice at all would be appreciated. When this happened I got pretty depressed thinking that 20 years of practice had been nullified by one stupid accident. But I am coming back strong. I could use some words of advice or encouragement from someone who's been in a similar situation. Thanks in advance for anything you can offer.

The key role of teachers in achieving Sustainable Development Goal 4 is on the agenda of the International Teacher Task Force's (TTF) annual meeting and Policy Dialogue Forum, which will gather 300 national and international policy-makers, researchers, representatives of intergovernmental organizations, NGO's and teachers in Mexico City, Mexico from 15 to 17 March, 2016.
The theme of the event is "Implementing the Teacher Target in the Sustainable Development Goal for education and Education 2030." The teacher target within Sustainable Development Goal 4 for education pledges to: "By 2030, substantially increase the supply of qualified teachers, including through international cooperation for teacher training in developing countries, especially least developed countries and small island developing States."
Sharing policies, practices and tools
"Qualified, professionally trained, motivated and well-supported teachers are essential for achieving the Sustainable Development Goals," says Mr Edem Adubra, UNESCO Chief of the Section for Teacher Development and Head of the Secretariat of the International Task Force on Teachers. "Together with policy-makers, researchers and representatives of intergovernmental organizations, NGOs and teachers, we will, over the course of this week, discuss how to orient partnerships to achieve with teachers the objectives to 2030," he added.
The main focus of the event will be on sharing relevant policies, practices and tools among international key stakeholders with a view to understanding, implementing and monitoring the teacher-related target.
Discussions will be organized around four sub-themes:
- Teacher education
- Teaching and learning
- Financing teaching and teacher development
- Monitoring the teacher target
The forum is preceded on 12 March by a meeting to discuss technical assistance using the Teacher Policy Development Guide to support TTF member countries (with invited experts only).
On 14 March there is the annual meeting of the TTF and of its Steering Committee who will take important decisions regarding the reorientation of the partnership to respond to the SDG and Education 2030 Agenda.
Four pre-forum thematic events will be organized on topics including inclusion and equity in teacher policy and practices; Information and Communication Technology (ICT) and distance education for teacher development; teacher management in fragile states, and early childhood education teachers and facilitators.

Floods in Redbrook in 1947.
Phil wrote: "...In March 1947 Redbrook suffered the worst flooding in living memory. The shop of Ron & Doris Hudson was submerged up to ceiling level. Nonetheless this photo shows that despite all the damage Doris seems to be enjoying the dubious pleasures of the River Wye! ... Many families suffered greatly and some houses were rendered unfit to live in and were condemned. This included Rose Cottage which lay at the bottom of the village (now occupied by a private garage). It was the home of Jim & Olive Hudson who subsequently went to live in Bristol in the early 50's. Olive lives in Caterham in Surrey c2007".

Cindy Strobach is an artist from London, who has made artwork out of an unusual source: electricity. According to DesignBoom Strobach, "wanted to visualize these intricate mechanisms in color, communicating a computerized object's inside to the outside."
The result is an intriguing take on how electricity can generate such a beautiful piece of work, in a way that's never been done before. To achieve her effect, Strobach prints with electricity onto silk, which is a delicate yet handy material to use for what she is doing.
When it comes to artwork, many people think that this simply involves paint on a canvas, but Cindy Strobach shows here that it can be so much more than that, if only people think beyond conventional limits. Photo Credits: designboom, cindystrobach

Calgary: Organic Meat And Dairy Products Are Healthier
Organic meat and dairy products offer consumers several health benefits:
Organic cows grazing on fresh pasture produce milk with higher levels of antioxidants and beneficial fatty acids such as conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) and omega-three fatty acids, according to research findings from Newcastle University in the United Kingdom.
Organic milk contained 68 percent more omega-3 fatty acids, on average, than conventional milk according to a three-year study (2002-2005) by the Universities of Liverpool and Glasgow in the United Kingdom (sponsored by the Organic Milk Suppliers' Co-operative).
A European research team has found that mothers consuming mostly organic milk and meat products have about 50 percent higher levels of rumenic acid, a conjugated linoleic acid, in their breast milk.

A voice vote in the U.S. House of Representative on Tuesday approved a bill to remove antiquated racial labels in two federal regulations, The Hill reported.
"Words definitely matter. They can cause great harm and division, particularly when they are embedded in federal statute," Rep. Hakeem Jeffries (D-N.Y.), who authored the bill, stated on the House floor.

The measure seeks to replace the term "Negro" with "Black or African American" and "Oriental" with "Asian American or Pacific Islander," as well as doing away with "Spanish surname" and "Eskimo" and change them to "Hispanic" and "Alaska Native." This bill addresses affirmative action references in two specific federal regulations: Agriculture Department loan programs in rural areas and a Pennsylvania Avenue development plan in the District of Columbia from 1974.

This isn't the first time that Congress has done some ethnic label house cleaning. Former President Barack Obama signed a bill in 2016 that eliminated the outdated racial identifiers, "Negro" and "Oriental" from two other sections of the U.S. code that dated back to the 1970s, regarding the Department of Energy and the Local Public Works Capital Development and Investment Act. The legislation passed by a unanimous vote in the House of Representatives and the Senate earlier in the year before the president signed it. "The term 'Oriental' has no place in federal law and at long last this insulting and outdated term will be gone for good," Rep. Grace Meng (D-N.Y.), who sponsored the bill, said last year. Some on social media are wondering if President Donald Trump, who opposes political correctness, is looking forward to his chance to sweep away the outdated racial labels by signing the bill.

John Cena scores pre-wedding dance lesson from Hugh Jackman
(WENN)- Wrestler and movie star John Cena picked up a few dancing tips from Hugh Jackman Thursday night after confessing he was nervous about his wedding day moves.
The Trainwreck star wowed the wrestling world and girlfriend Nikki Bella when he proposed in the ring during WWE's Wrestlemania 33 event in Florida in April, and now he's counting down to the big day.
Cena told America's The Late Late Show host James Corden and fellow guest Jackman that many of the things linked to the nuptials have already been taken care of, but he's still fretting about his first dance with his bride-to-be.
"I'm not very good," he said, before asking song-and-dance man Jackman for advice.
The Les Miserables star jumped to his feet and offered to give Cena a lesson there and then, grabbing John's hand and placing another on his waist.
The fighter-turned-actor and TV personality quipped, "I know Nicole's gonna wanna lead, so you don't have to be the female; I'll be the female."
Jackman offered, "Just look in the eyes... Just relax; it's just you and I for the rest of our lives, John."
Cena will be spending the weekend updating all the wedding plans, after revealing he and Bella have been separated by work for the past 25 days.
He's just happy she said yes when he proposed in front of wrestling fans back in April, because he had no plan if it all went wrong.
"I was worried about a 75,000-person 'No, no, no...' chant," he told Corden. "It ended up being an amazing moment."

Abraham's View of Heaven and Hell
by Wayne Blank
See also 1 Year Holy Bible Reading Plan
"Look now toward heaven, and tell the stars, if thou be able to number them: and He said unto him, So shall thy seed be"
Hebron (see also Haran To Hebron) is located south of Jerusalem and Bethlehem (see also Bethlehem In History And Prophecy) on the main road to Beersheba. Although in a shallow valley, it's actually over 900 meters (about 3,000 feet) above sea level, and over 1,300 meters (about 4,300 feet) above the nearby Dead Sea. Abraham was given by the LORD (i.e. Jesus Christ; see The Kingdom Of The LORD God) to make his home (his tent; see Camped Out In Canaan) in Hebron, a place where he would witness not only the natural geographic heights and depths of the area around Hebron, but also the prophetic heights and depths of heaven and hell.
"13:12 Abram dwelled in the land of Canaan, and Lot dwelled in the cities of the plain, and pitched his tent toward Sodom. 13:13 But the men of Sodom were wicked and sinners before the LORD exceedingly [see Sodomites].
It was at Hebron that the LORD told righteous Abraham that all his descendants would become a great multitude of nations (see Abraham's Seed: From The Nile To The Euphrates), as numerous as the stars of heaven.
"15:1 After these things the word of the LORD came unto Abram in a vision, saying, Fear not, Abram: I am thy shield, and thy exceeding great reward.
The children that the LORD spoke of were not only Abraham's physical descendants who would inherit the Kingdom of God; they would be anyone, anywhere, who chooses to be righteous, as Abraham was.
"3:8 Bring forth therefore fruits meet for repentance: 3:9 And think not to say within yourselves, We have Abraham to our father: for I say unto you, that God is able of these stones to raise up children unto Abraham. 3:10 And now also the ax is laid unto the root of the trees: therefore every tree which bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire." (Matthew 3:8-10 KJV)
Abraham himself understood that it was a prophecy of the future Kingdom of God on earth (see The Gospel of The Kingdom of God). In the meantime, he was "dwelling in tabernacles with Isaac and Jacob, the heirs with him of the same promise."
"11:8 By faith Abraham, when he was called to go out into a place which he should after receive for an inheritance, obeyed; and he went out, not knowing whither he went. 11:9 By faith he sojourned in the land of promise, as in a strange country, dwelling in tabernacles with Isaac and Jacob, the heirs with him of the same promise: 11:10 For he looked for a city which hath foundations, whose builder and maker is God." (Hebrews 11:8-10 KJV)
The "coming out of the world" was foreshadowed by the Exodus - that Abraham was given to know about centuries before it happened (see The Exodus Prophecy).
"15:13 And he said unto Abram, Know of a surety that thy seed shall be a stranger in a land that is not theirs, and shall serve them; and they shall afflict them four hundred years; 15:14 And also that nation, whom they shall serve, will I judge: and afterward shall they come out with great substance." (Genesis 15:13-14 KJV)
"And turning the cities of Sodom and Gomorrha into ashes condemned them with an overthrow, making them an ensample unto those that after should live ungodly"
It was also at Hebron that Abraham was visited by the LORD and two angels who were on their way to deal with Sodom.
"18:1 And the LORD appeared unto him in the plains of Mamre: and he sat in the tent door in the heat of the day; 18:2 And he lift up his eyes and looked, and, lo, three men stood by him: and when he saw them, he ran to meet them from the tent door, and bowed himself toward the ground,
While the LORD remained with Abraham, the two angels went to Sodom where they were attacked by the men of perversion there. The LORD then rained hell fire upon the city and its inhabitants.
"19:23 The sun was risen upon the earth when Lot entered into Zoar [see Who Saved Zoar?]. 19:24 Then the LORD rained upon Sodom and upon Gomorrah brimstone and fire from the LORD out of heaven; 19:25 And he overthrew those cities, and all the plain, and all the inhabitants of the cities, and that which grew upon the ground." (Genesis 19:23-25 KJV)
The next morning, Abraham, from Hebron, witnessed the "hell" at Sodom: "the smoke of the country went up as the smoke of a furnace."
"19:27 And Abraham gat up early in the morning to the place where he stood before the LORD: 19:28 And he looked toward Sodom and Gomorrah, and toward all the land of the plain, and beheld, and, lo, the smoke of the country went up as the smoke of a furnace. 19:29 And it came to pass, when God destroyed the cities of the plain, that God remembered Abraham, and sent Lot out of the midst of the overthrow, when he overthrew the cities in the which Lot dwelt." (Genesis 19:27-29 KJV)
The destruction of Sodom was itself a prophecy of the hell to come for those who refuse to repent.
"2:4 For if God spared not the angels that sinned, but cast them down to hell, and delivered them into chains of darkness, to be reserved unto judgment; 2:5 And spared not the old world, but saved Noah the eighth person, a preacher of righteousness, bringing in the flood upon the world of the ungodly; 2:6 And turning the cities of Sodom and Gomorrha into ashes condemned them with an overthrow, making them an ensample unto those that after should live ungodly; 2:7 And delivered just Lot, vexed with the filthy conversation of the wicked: 2:8 For that righteous man dwelling among them, in seeing and hearing, vexed his righteous soul from day to day with their unlawful deeds; 2:9 The Lord knoweth how to deliver the godly out of temptations, and to reserve the unjust unto the day of judgment to be punished." (2 Peter 2:4-9 KJV)
Fact Finder: Why did Lot's wife hesitate to leave Sodom?
This Day In History, May 6
636: (date approximate) The Battle of al-Qadisiyah; a military engagement in which Arab forces defeated the Sasanid Persian Empire (Persia is known today as Iran) and completed the conquest of Iraq.
1527: 40,000 mercenaries, hired by Cardinal Pompeo Colonna, sacked the city of Rome, destroying two-thirds of the houses. They killed clergy and laity alike, and forced Pope Clement VII to flee, disguised as a gardener (see also The Struggle For The Papacy).
1536: In further defiance to the Pope in Rome, King Henry VIII ordered English-language Bibles to be placed in every church in England.
1576: The Peace Treaty of Chastenoy ended "the Fifth War of Religion."
1626: The mythological incident in which a Dutch settler, Peter Minuit, "bought" what is today Manhattan Island from the "Indians" for a handful of trinkets. At most, the native Americans regarded the "purchase" as a simple gift from a visitor; they had no actual custom or legal practice of owning or selling land - they regarded the earth as owned by the Creator.
1682: King Louis XIV of France moved his court to Versailles.
1757: Frederick II of Prussia attacked Austrian troops defending Prague in the Seven Years War. The attack succeeded and Prague fell with 10,000 Austrian casualties.
1778: Connecticut-born U.S. soldier and frontiersman Ethan Allen was released after being captured in Montreal in 1775 (in which British forces of "New England" invaded the then France-held territory of Quebec i.e. "New France"). After his return, he did not serve in the Revolutionary War of the New England colonies, but devoted his time to local affairs in Vermont, working for separate statehood along with the existing thirteen former colonies. When that didn't happen, he attempted to negotiate the annexation of Vermont to Canada.
1840: The first adhesive postage stamps, the "Penny Black" and the "Twopenny Blue," went on sale in Britain.
1877: About 1,500 Sioux, led by Sitting Bull, entered Canada to settle at Wood Mountain, in present-day Saskatchewan. They fled north after the Battle of The Little Big Horn. The warrior Crazy Horse was the actual Sioux leader of the battle; he later surrendered to stop the retaliatory slaughter of entire Sioux villages, but was bayoneted to death "while trying to escape" Army custody. Instead of being allowed to live on a reservation, as officially agreed by both sides at the time of his surrender, Crazy Horse was taken by "the white devils" (as whites became known to the native Americans) to a common prison where he would have spent the rest of his life in a tiny concrete and steel cage.
1882: British statesman Lord Cavendish was murdered by Irish nationalists soon after arriving in Dublin as chief secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland.
1884: Judah Benjamin died. In 1852 he became the first professing Jew to be elected to the U.S. Senate, but during the U.S. Civil War he was took the side of the Confederates, serving as Attorney General. He fled the country after the war.
1889: The Eiffel Tower in Paris was completed.
1910: Edward VII, king of Great Britain and Ireland from January 1901, died.
1919: At the end of the First World War (listen to our Sermon The European World Wars), the Paris Peace Conference disposed of Germany's colonies; German East Africa was assigned as a League of nations mandate to Britain and France, while German South-West Africa was mandated to South Africa.
1937: The German airship Hindenburg burned at Lakehurst, New Jersey. 36 people lost their lives.
1942: During the Second World War, Coregidor fell to Japanese invasion forces.
1954: British runner Roger Bannister became the first officially-recorded human to run a mile in under four minutes, recording a time of 3 minutes 59.4 seconds.
1994: Queen Elizabeth and French president Francois Mitterrand officially opened the English Channel tunnel at Folkstone, England. The first fixed link between Britain and the European continent since the Ice Age.
1996: The apparently-drowned body of former CIA director William Colby was found on a riverbank in southern Maryland, eight days after he disappeared.
2001: During an official visit to Syria, Pope John Paul II became the first pope to enter a Muslim mosque (see also A History Of Jerusalem: Constantine and Muhammad).

This is the first post in a new blog series called, "Real Talk with Bill Burley"
Innovation. We're bombarded with that word, in advertisements, marketing materials, and even in books. In fact, that word is used so much that it's hard to distinguish what's real from over-hyped claims.
So, how do you know whether someone's "innovation" really matters?
The Citrix formula is simple. We listen to our customers. We try to walk a mile in their shoes. We observe how their people work. We ask questions. What problems do they face? What do they wish they could do that they can't do now?
It's simple, common sense. And it's why #EveryoneUsesCitrix.
Perhaps you feel like this approach limits us to incremental improvements that barely make a difference, not major breakthroughs.
You would be wrong.
By getting close to our customers, we've been able to identify solutions to problems they may not even recognize, and that extend across industries.
Problems like the growing proliferation of browser-based apps, particularly Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) apps, which are overwhelming IT organizations with the following types of problems:
- Custom-built apps that only work with specific versions of Internet Explorer, because they depend on Flash, Silverlight or other plug-ins that are no longer supported in modern browsers
- Enterprise apps that are optimized for Internet Explorer or Firefox
- Line-of-business managers who are purchasing cutting edge SaaS apps outside of IT, which employees then access through their personal browsers, which save usernames and passwords, user preferences and personal details, and offer cybercriminals to break through IT security defenses
Browser-based apps have been around for years. And Citrix customers have been using XenApp to address the problems listed above. In fact, telemetry from more than 100,000 Citrix customers shows that browsers are the number one app published and delivered through XenApp.
But we could also see huge demand for a service or software that would deliver XenApp security and management benefits without any need for someone with Citrix expertise. What if we could provide customers with a way to secure browser-based access to business apps in a few minutes, without asking the people who use it to do anything more complicated than to click on a link?
The answer? We can.
And that innovation is called Citrix Secure Browser, which we recently launched as a fully hosted cloud-based service, as an entry-level XenApp software product, or as an SDK for existing customers at no cost. In minutes, someone who has never touched a Citrix product can set up and securely deliver any web-based or SaaS app to any modern browser.
And we're just getting started. You can expect Citrix to launch more groundbreaking features, products and services at a pace faster than we've ever achieved.
That's innovation that matters.

This little printer has to be one of the best IT investments I've ever made. It's simply great and has made life so much easier than fiddling around with my "all in one printer" . I cannot praise and recommend the QL560 highly enough. And all at a very attractive price with very fast delivery.22nd Dec, 2012

i've been using a 550 for a few years now, recommended it as brilliant tool for shipping labels address, and at the time sandwich lavelling. the only drawback i had was with multiple labels on the endless rolls... you couldnt really run off 10 or 20 with out having to hand cut, which to be honest doesnt look that professional does it? the 560 solves tha problem, cuts the label where needed. all that is left for me to do iswork a way to convert the 550 files to 560. in summary why pay £30 on ebay for a secondhand 550 without warranty when for a few quid more you can get the 560 PLUS with labelzone a handheld printer at a giveaway price.26th Sep, 2012

I opurchased this as a replacement for an old label printer that would not run with Win 7. I am a disabled person who sells the odd bits now and again.Tthe Brother label maker is a godsend, I can use it to print off, in such clear a legible way, address Labels, package labels and much more. It has made an enormous diffence to my life, not having to go into the Study to print off a label from an old label maker. It is such a versatile printer, allowing you to just change the label cartridge and off you go with a different label. The end results are really clear and easy to apply onto the package or letters. The running costs are much less than I expected, using the official Brother labels. Thank you Brother for such a great product. 15th Apr, 2012

I can't recommend this machine enough, it's small and compact, excellent print speed, very versatile with the range of label sizes and simple to install. It's thermal so no messing around with inks or toners and the labels are inexpensive and easy to find. If you hand write labels STOP, the price per label and the convinience of copy and paste into the template will save you more in time than it costs.15th Mar, 2012

I purchased this from from labelzone and it arrived the next day! Excellent service! I bought this because I was tired of printing adresses onto A4 paper, cutting them out and sticking them to packages with tape! The included software is very easy to use (I use a Mac and there is no compatibility issues), you can add your own logos etc. Once you've 'designed' your label, click Print and you get a brilliant, self-adhesive label in seconds! The printer cuts the label off and then all you need to do is peel and stick! Well worth the money, buy one now! 12th Mar, 2012

I've just purchase two more of these after originally buying one a couple of years ago. They are great little machines. The software is a little clunky but doesn't take too long to get the hand of. We use ours for creating barcodes for our appointment system, labelling files, drawers, hanging files, adding notes to documents when cascading them to multiple people, the list goes one. A great buy, especially with the continuous roll of label as you always get one exactly the right size although the rolls are dead easy to change if you want to swap to a different type/size. Highly recommend. 16th Nov, 2011

- Hi, we have a Brother P-touch QL 560 in our office. And I'm wondering if we can buy the ink for this machine from your website?
The QL range of printers are direct thermal, therefore they do not use ink. The only consumable for these printers is the label rolls
- How do I change the blade on this printer QL560?
If you life the clear lid you will see on the left a screw which is holding in place the cutter. You will need to unscrew, remove and replace with DK-BU99
- Is it compatible with windows 8..?
Windows 8 Drivers are available on www.brother.co.uk for the QL range of printers including the QL-560
- Will the address book feature work with a Mac? Many Thanks
Yes the all the features of the Brother QL range of printers work on both Mac and PC
- Can I get a continuous role of labels which are fixed size, with serrated ends for easy tearing rather than a continuous roll of paper which needs cutting?
Brother offer a range of pre-cut DK labels for the QL range of printers, however none of which have serrated ends.
- I have Windows 7 - Is the QL560 compatable with this operating system and Microsoft Word
The Brother QL-560 is compatible with Windows 7 and Vista
- Can you syncronise the label printer to any database?
You can import your data from an external data source into Brother P-Touch editor.
- Can I use my own application and use the QL-560 to print. For example, if I design my own label in JPG format, and open the JPG with a browser. Would I be able to send the print command to the QL-560 to print the JPG? Thank you
If you use the QL-560 printer driver you should be able to print from most Windows applications using FILE>PRINT from your applications menu. The output form should be the same size as the labels in the printer to make sure the image prints correctly. We would recommend that you consider using the Brother b-PAC SDK if you wanted to write you own application. More details can be found here
- What size labels does it come with and how many?
The Brother QL-560 printer comes with a roll of 62mm x 8m white continuous label.
- does this print in colour or just black and white
The QL range of printer only product a black print onto your label.
- Hi can this label printer be connected to an office network so that we all call print different addresses from this same printer.
There are ways to share printers over a Windows network but we would recommend a true networkable product such as the QL-580N or the QL-1060N
- Can I use labels intended for a zebra gk420d ?. I've nearly run out of 100x62 shipping labels and the zebra labels are much cheaper. I'm quite happy to roll them onto an empty 100x62 spindle.
The Brother QL labels have a registration patten printed in the reverse side of the backing paper which enables the printer to sense the labels. The standard Zebra shipping labels do not have this and would not work in the QL printer.
- Is there an outdoor/waterproof label suitable for this printer? If so, which one would you recommend? Thanks
The QL-560 labels are not suitable for outdoor use, we would recommend using one of the LabelStation printers for external labelling. If you would like samples of the labels please call 0800 975 5040 for an information pack.
- Will this product print bar code shipping labels?
The QL labelling software supplied with each QL printer will allow you to design and print virtually any type of label, these can include barcodes if required. The software supports most common barcode formats and will convert your text into barocdes automatically. You can also link to a database which allows batch printing of addresses. Depending on the size of label you require the QL-560 may be suitable but if you need labels with a 100mm (4") width we would recommend the QL-1050 or the QL-1060N. These are ideal for the large shipping labels which are only suitable for these two printers.
- Hi I am inquiring about the Brother QL-560 Address Label printer. I would like to know if you can use different width sizes of labels. Regards Bob
Thanks you for your enquiry, there is a wide range of label sizes, you can see the full range here if you need more information please feel free to call us on 0800 975 5040.
- Is the Brother QL-560 compatable with my Windows 7 (64bit) platform and my OpenOffice.org software please? Tom
To ensure you are using the most upto date release of the Windows 7 64bit drivers and software, we would recommend downloading the latest version from the Brother.com website. The QL software doesn't have specific support for OpenOffice, however you should have no problems printing from OpenOffice as the Windows driver allows you to print from most applications.
- Can I upload a black and white image (my company logo) to print on the labels also? Thank you Tracey
Yes, you can include logos and graphics on your labels. The software supplied with the QL printers support most common graphic formats.
- I am using Microsoft Access as a database, Can I continue using this and get the labels to print from Access?
Yes. the P-Touch Editor software has built-in Microsoft Office functionality to do exactly this. From the software you would simply select File > Database > Connect then choose your database to start editing it or to print from it straight away. The software can be downloaded from here if you'd like to see for yourself.
- Is the QL-560 definitely compatible with a Mac?
Yes, but it's important you have the correct driver installed. Visit Brother's support section to download these drivers.

Oedipus Ubiquitous: The Family Complex in World Folk Literature
by Allen W. Johnson and Douglass Price-Williams, Stanford CA: Stanford University Press, 1996. Pp. 342. Hb ISBN: 0 8047 2576 4, pb ISBN: 0 8047 2577 2
reviewed by Douglas Cairns
University of Leeds
Despite its title, this book is not an examination of the Oedipus legend and its analogues in world folk literature (for which see L. Edmunds, Oedipus [Baltimore, 1985]), but a collection and analysis of 'family complex' tales of which the classical Oedipus story of incest and parricide is only one type. Its appeal to a classical audience will be limited to those who have a general interest in anthropology, mythology, or psychoanalysis, for although it does include classical sources in its collection of 'tales' in Part 2 (two passages from Hesiod's Theogony, Robert Graves' synthetic reconstruction of the Oedipus myth, and a version of the birth, slaughter, and rebirth of Dionysus culled from the Orphic poems)[1] and the opinions of a few classical scholars are canvassed in the review of 'Non-Psychoanalytic Perspectives from Folklore and Anthropology' in Chapter 2 of Part 1, the authors offer no detailed discussion of the classical myth or of classical sources.
The authors concede that Oedipal tales of the classical type are rare (pp. 52-3; cf. Edmunds viii), but justify their inclusion of tales which do not conform to this type in two ways: first, although not all variants of tales which the authors would regard as Oedipal involve both parricide and incest, absence or mitigation of one of these motifs is to be attributed to the tales' status as allomorphs of types in which the motifs do occur, as well as to cultural variation in the degree of 'repression' which such elements undergo in different societies (pp. 40-4). This may sound like a hermeneutic blank cheque (see below), but the procedure can be reasonable in practice (cf. Edmunds 19-20 for the same phenomenon). The authors' focus is also broadened by their general interest in the sum total of the potential for forbidden erotic and hostile relations within the family. Having mapped out the possible permutations, however, they conclude that not all are realised, the most typical being (a) father-son antipathy, mother-son intimacy on the Oedipal model; (b) father-daughter intimacy (father the initiator, mother generally supportive of the daughter, occasionally compliant); and (c) brother-sister intimacy (brother generally the initiator, parents - if mentioned - generally hostile). These patterns being found in all kinds of society, stratified and non-stratified, in all parts of the world, the authors conclude that these forms of the family complex are universal, and that while the widespread occurrence of tales of father-son conflict and mother-son intimacy confirms the universality of the male Oedipus complex, tales of father-daughter intimacy provide little support for its female equivalent, but rather support feminist criticism thereof. The folktales reflect the universality of the male Oedipus complex because they encode and present to the unconscious of the audience repressed aspects of mental experience which quotidian society cannot address.
The first problem with the book is the presentation of the tales themselves. A cursory examination reveals their utter heterogeneity: some are verbatim records of the words of traditional storytellers, while others are summaries or paraphrases (sometimes abstracted and conflated from several versions, sometimes including elements of interpretative comment); in some the elements of the 'family complex' are salient, in others much less so; and, as noted above, the criteria for inclusion are somewhat elastic - it is one thing to accept that a mother's aiding of her son in a conflict with the father may represent a mitigation of the incest motif, another to accept the notion of the 'splitting of the mother' (p. 50) in tales which recount a son's intercourse with his father's concubine (see below). In addition, no real attention is paid to any distinction between the tales in the circumstances of their performance or their status and function as cultural artefacts. One often has a strong suspicion that the primary meaning of a tale in its context will lie in its reference to particular institutions of the society from which it comes. The authors themselves accept the possibility of other, more immediate meanings (pp. 46, 99-100), yet maintain that the inclusion of elements of the family complex is sufficient for their purposes. But surely the salience of the family complex in the tale, the particulars of its presentation, and the cultural significance of the tale itself make a difference?
The real difficulties that the book is likely to present for all but the most convinced Freudian, however, lie in its relatively uncritical acceptance of psychoanalytic orthodoxy concerning the phenomenon of repression and the existence of the Oedipus complex. The authors' only real concession to criticism of these theories is to accept psychoanalytic modifications of Freud's assumption that the Oedipus complex is an spontaneous biogenetic development; accordingly, they argue for a role for the actual behaviour of parents towards their infant sons in activating Oedipal tendencies (p. 101). Such a limited concession to empiricism sits uneasily with their rejection of an analogue to the Oedipus complex in females; for if the folktales of six continents confirm the objections of feminists that there is no universal complex of repressed incestuous fantasies in females, the reason presumably lies in the empirical fact that females in real incestuous relationships are typically the objects and victims of male sexual aggression. Thus we do not need speculative theories of the repression of infantile sexual fantasies to explain the occurrence of male-initiated brother-sister and father-daughter incest in world folklore. Should we not, therefore, seek a similar empirical basis for tales of mother-son incest and father-son rivalry?
Moreover, despite accommodating a limited degree of criticism of the radical interiorisation of experience inherent in strict Freudianism, the authors still seek to retain something of Freud's conviction that his model of human development is rooted in biology, in so far as they speculate about a possible evolutionary explanation, if not for the Oedipus complex itself, then at least for Oedipal capacities (pp. 94-7). But Freud cannot be so easily Darwinised. Such plausibility as the Oedipus complex possesses in evolutionary terms derives from the fact that it seems to account for empirically verifiable phenomena which do make evolutionary sense: there can be a quasi-sexual aspect to the relationship between mother and infant son, on both sides; this can (but need not) be occasion for guilt on the mother's part and for jealousy on the father's, and it is also very likely that this aspect of the relationship has significant effects on the psychology of the developing child; but there is no evidence for the more specific Freudian hypothesis of repressed fantasies of coitus with the mother in male children in the supposed 'phallic' stage of their development (i.e. between the ages of 2 and 5). It is also true that male infants vie with their fathers for the attention of their mothers; equally that adult males in some societies may compete or behave as if competing with their fathers over sexual partners; but in the former case the father-son rivalry is not sexual, and in the second it is not for the attentions of the biological mother.[2] This is why tales in which the son has sex with his father's concubine (as in Phoenix's autobiography in Iliad 9. 447-63) need to be taken at face value, and not regarded Oedipal tales in which 'splitting of the mother' has occurred. The robustness of Freud's theories is largely due to their having been designed to be independent of any empirical verification; attempts retrospectively to endow them with some empirical basis fail to take account of their entirely speculative origins.[3]
In short, if you believe in Freud, there is a chance that you will find this book credible, but the authors have failed to convince me that it is reasonable to do either.
[1] The authors confuse fragment numbers from Kern, Orphicorum Fragmenta (Berlin, 1922) with page numbers in their references for this tale (p. 113), and these references are anyhow inadequate as sources for the mixture of paraphrase and reconstruction which they quote from J. Campbell, The Masks of God (New York, 1959), 101. See rather M. L. West, The Orphic Poems (Oxford, 1983), 74.
[2]See M. Daly and M. Wilson, 'Is Parent-Offspring Conflict Sex-Linked? Freudian and Darwinian Models', Journal of Personality 58 (1990), 163-89. See also R. L.

Free E-Waste Collection Event in South Pasadena: January 27th and 28th
TrueCycle, Inc. and Holy Family Church, South Pasadena, to host a two-day recycling event January, 27th - 28th, 2006. The event is open to the public. Donations dropped off at the Holy Family Recycling Drive are tax deductible. Proceeds will benefit the Holy Family Giving Bank and Community Services.
Pasadena, CA (PRWEB) January 23, 2006
trueCycle, Inc. and Holy Family Church, South Pasadena, will host a two-day recycling event January, 27th - 28th, 2006. The event is open to the public. Donations dropped off at the Holy Family Recycling Drive are tax deductible. Proceeds will benefit the Holy Family Giving Bank and Community Services.
Because most consumers don't know where to take their obsolete electronics, the refuse from discarded electronic products often ends up in landfills or incinerators instead of being recycled. In a recent interview, Todd Hill, founder and CEO of trueCycle, Inc., said, "The improper disposal of end-of-life electronics, called e-waste, is the world's fastest growing waste problem. Rapidly evolving technology has produced a culture of disposable electronics, with replacement often easier and less costly than repair."
Electronic computer equipment is generally a complicated assembly of more than one thousand materials, many of which are highly toxic. Substances such as lead, mercury, cadmium, brominated flame retardants and PVC plastics can cause significant risks to human health, wildlife, and the environment when e-waste ends up in landfills.
Todd Hill, a technology expert who sits on numerous National Councils for the EPA, believes local collection events serve the community in several ways. "trueCycle is pleased to provide consumers with a convenient, and responsible way to dispose of obsolete electronics while supporting community services. These events raise awareness about hazards associated with improper storage and disposal of electronic devices and give consumers appropriate alternatives."
Only electronic items from the following list will be accepted at
This event:
Monitors & Televisions
Desktop & Laptop Computers

London City Escape: Greenwich1 5 Share Tweet
The south east borough of London, mainly known for giving its name to the Greenwich Meridian, is a perfect place to escape from the hustle and bustle of the city.
The Royal Observatory in Greenwich has been the topic of many articles and tourist guides, but Greenwich has more to offer than just the observatory and Cutty Sark.
The Queen's House, Greenwich, is a former royal residence built between 1614-1617 by architect Indigo Jones. It was commissioned by Anne of Denmark, the queen of King James I of England. Queen's House was built as an adjunct to the Tudor Palace of Greenwich and is one of the most important buildings in British architectural history, being the first consciously classical building to have been constructed in Britain. Now it houses part of The Maritime Museum and is part of the University of Greenwich campus.
The University of Greenwich's main campus is located on the Grounds of the Old Naval College. Situated on the banks of river Thames, it is the architectural centerpiece of Greenwich. These magnificent buildings and their grounds are regularly used as filming grounds for movies and TV programs. Films include Four Weddings and a Funeral, The Madness of King George, The Mummy Returns, The Avengers (1998), and Lara Croft: Tomb Raider (2001) and more recently, The Wolf Man.
Greenwich Park: A former hunting ground, the park in Greenwich is one of the largest green spaces in south east London. It covers 74 hectares (180 acres) and is one of the Royal Parks of London. The park has stunning views over the River Thames, Isle of Dogs and the city of London. During the Olympics in 2012, Greenwich Park will be the venue for the equestrian events and for the riding and running parts of the modern pentathlon events. Greenwich Park is a perfect place for a lazy Sunday with your mates.

Mark Huselid
D'Amore-McKim's Distinguished Professor of Workforce Analytics
Project Engineer, Hologic, Inc.
A: The D'Amore-McKim MS in Innovation program has taught me to approach decisions from not only a technical perspective, utilizing my undergraduate degree in biomedical engineering, but also a financial and accounting perspective. I am able to evaluate decisions and innovations from a well-rounded business perspective, as well as better understand and communicate the key items senior leadership may look for in decision or recommendation. For example, I assisted a co-worker in evaluating a profit and loss statement for a potential new technology and was able to come to the conclusion that some of the volume estimates were incorrect and that them team had forgotten to account for additional versions of the product, based off the projected revenue.
A: Do it! It was great program in which I was able to achieve all of my goals and I can see the difference in my ability to perform in the work place. Many points of the program are extremely fun and rewarding and you meet some really great classmates and professors—but it is a lot of work! The program really teaches you commitment and how to manage your time wisely. If bringing your career to the next level is what you want, then you can easily manage the work/life balance. Before you know it, it's been a year and you will have your degree.
A: I chose the D'Amore-McKim MSI because the program really seemed to fit my personality as well as my goals for the future. I knew I was ready to go back to school to advance my career, but wasn't sure if an MBA was the right decision. I was positive that I wanted to work full-time while earning my degree, which the flexibility of Saturday classes allowed. I was also looking to build my business acumen, industry network, and increase my confidence, all of which I have achieved as a direct result of the MSI program.
A: The obvious take-away from earning my MSI at Northeastern is that I was promoted at work, while in the program. However, the biggest take-away from earning my MSI at Northeastern is this great new network of classmates. I have really enjoyed working and attending class every other week with my cohort. We all bounce project related and work related issues and ideas off of each other. It has been great gaining different perspectives from different people from different industries. Some of us even joke about hiring each other or starting a company together in the future.
A: In 5 to 10 years I see myself in a successful startup medical device company or even my own company working directly with physicians to develop revolutionary technology that could potentially benefit a large patient population.

There's more to the '70s than just disco music. We're bringing revolutionary songs this week that are rock, punk, and funk!
Named the 45th Best Hard Rock Song of All Time by VH1, "Slow Ride" is a single by British rock band Foghat. Drums open the song with pulsing hits on the offbeat, then the guitar kicks in with a distorted blues riff. The electric slide technique coupled with the tone of the lead vocals gives this song true grit. This song isn't a slow ride by any means, it alternates between verses, chorus and powerful instrumental breaks with a ton of action in-between. The guitar and bass fly through the song with fills and accents when they can, with an eventual duet and the drums switch between several patterns from a rock beat to a back beat pattern and more.
Another style of rock music that exploded in the 1970s was punk rock and Joey, Johnny, Dee Dee, and Marky Ramone were at the epicenter. "I Wanna Be Sedated" is a single from Ramones' fourth studio album Road to Ruin, one of their best known songs and a Rock Band favorite. Rolling Stone named it one of the 500 Greatest Songs of All Time and NPR included it in the "NPR 100", a list to determine the 100 most important American musical works of the 20th century. The song has been used in countless films and television shows, and has been covered by dozens of established artists as well as the countless up-and-coming garage rockers. The fast rhythm changes create the bop feeling to the song that's so much fun to play.
Shifting to an incredible song from Wild Cherry, "Play That Funky Music" was released in 1976 where it immediately went to #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 and Hot Soul Singles chart as well as topping the charts globally. Its popularity is no surprise, being a textbook funk and party song - as soon as the main guitar riff drops, you know you get pumped. This song will prove just as much fun to play as it is to dance to. Between the syncopated guitar parts and main riff, the rhythm section stays locked in a tight groove while the vocal part does its thing over the verse. Everyone can jump in on vocals and belt out the chorus.
