Kilroy-Silk promises surprises with his new party
Hold up! Before you read on, please read this...
This post was published more than 15 years ago
I keep old posts on the site because I often enjoy reading old content on other people's sites. It can be interesting to see how views have changed over time: for example, how my strident teenage views have, to put it mildly, mellowed.
I'm not a believer in brushing the past under the carpet. I've written some offensive rubbish on here in the past: deleting it and pretending it never happened doesn't change that. I hope that stumbling across something that's 15 years old won't offend anyone anew, because I hope that people can understand that what I thought and felt and wrote about then is probably very different to what I think and feel and write about now. It's a relic of an (albeit recent) bygone era.
So, given the age of this post, please bear in mind:
- My views may well have changed in the last 15 years. I have written some very silly things over the years, many of which I find utterly cringeworthy today.
- This post might use words or language in ways which I would now consider highly inappropriate, offensive, embarrassing, or all three.
- Factual information might be outdated.
- Links might be broken, and embedded material might not appear properly.
Okay. Consider yourself duly warned. Read on...
So Kilroy-Silk promises surprises with his new party? It'll be composed entirely of trans-sexuals who are having affairs with homosexual dwarves? That's the kind of person he'd be used to, after all his TV work.
How can he possibly beleive that this little party of his is ever going to get anywhere? He's a delusional fool. But I'll be watching the party launch (if anybody's showing it) for the comedy value.
Now I'm off to watch PMQs.

notloB Parlour Concerts Announces Fall Season
International Flavor and Old FriendsThree world-touring acoustic acts will comprise not-for-profit notloB Parlour Concerts' Fall, 2012 season at the historic Loring-Greenough House in Jamaica Plain. Series producer Jeff Boudreau proudly notes that the concerts begin notoB's sixth year presenting at the historic (c. 1760) house museum. "And at this rate, our one hundredth concert should correspond with our sixth anniversary in early June, 2013." Plans for that event are underway and are being kept secret, but no doubt will include some of the brightest starts in the Boston and New England string band, old time, Celtic, traditional and neo-trad folk heavens. Past notloB artists include Aoife O'Donovan, Rushad Eggleston, Tristan Clairridge and Corey DiMario of Crooked Still, Sharon Gilchrist and Kristin Andreassen of Uncle Earl, Tao Rodriguez-Seeger, Ruthy Ungar, Mike Merenda and Chris Merenda of the Mammals; Celtic artists Brian Conway, Malinky, the Jeremy Kittel band, Hanneke Cassel, Matt and Shannon Heaton, Long Time Courting, Flynn Cohen, the late John McGann; local folk luminaries Bob Franke, Geoff Bartley, the Rowan Brothers, Dennis Brennan, Alistair Moock, and Mark Simos.
"We're on the cutting edge of local acoustic music. For example, in 2007 we presented "Sometymes Why" as our very first concert, followed in 2008 by Joy Kills Sorrow, The Boston Boys, the Folk Arts Quartet and Blue Moose and the Unbuttoned Zippers. The next year Joy Kills Sorrow was signed by Signature Sounds Records, Blue Moose and the Unbuttoned Zippers won the Falcon Ridge Folk Festival "artist most wanted to return" award, and Folk Arts Quartet was a Falcon Ridge main stage artist.
notloB also has a solid history of presenting legends, including Spider John Koerner, Mary McCaslin, Jack Hardy, David Massengill, Peggy Seeger, Paul Geremia, Jim Hurst and Jaime Brockett, a name familiar with those who grew up with the folk revival music scene at the Olde Vienna Kaffehaus.
"People used to pop culture may not recognize the names of the artists we present, but one thing we do is to deliver a consistent level of acoustic excellence, be they an internationally touring veteran or a rising talent," explains Boudreau.
The Fall season would appears to be a continuation of the high standards evidenced since 2007. It begins Wednesday, October 10 with Richard Wood & Gordon Belsher. Award winning Prince Edward Island fiddler Richard Wood has performed all over the world, including Carnegie Hall with "the Chieftains", and on "David Letterman" with Shania Twain. Most recently, he performed for the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge during their Royal Visit to Canada, and with Symphony Nova Scotia at the East Coast Music Awards in 2011. Combining deep-rooted traditional prowess with high-voltage rock'n'roll attitude, each performance includes elements of Celtic jigs & reels tempered with beautifully melodic original airs. Richard's exciting live show dazzles with unending energy & pounding rhythms, along with virtuoso musicianship and an endearing stage presence. Accompanied on guitar, vocals, mandola and bodhrán by Gordon Belsher, Gordon's solo CD's have been nominated for Canada's East Coast Music Awards. As accompanist and featured vocalist with Richard Wood, he has toured extensively across Canada, the U.S., the U.K., Europe, Australia, and performed as part of a cultural delegation forCanada in Tokyo, Japan.
"Truly Richard Wood and Gordon Belsher brought the house down at St. Kieran's! From opening explosion to standing ovation, they endeared themselves into our hearts forever!" - Joan Chamberlain, St. Kieran's Executive Director, Berlin New Hampshire
"Perfect precision, playfulness and power!" - Charlottetown Guardian
A new dimension to the series is the addition of master classes or workshops. Prior to their performance, in separate rooms, Richard will be offering a fiddle workshop and Gordon Belsher will be offering either a DADGAD guitar or a bodhran workshop for up to 5 participants.
November sees two concerts in quick succession. Thursday, November 1 brings Keith Murphy & Becky Tracy across the border, from Vermont that is. Patrons who attend violinmaker Bob Childs' annual Childsplayin Lexington will recognize Murphy as its artistic director. Becky and Keith are dynamic performers of traditional music from Newfoundland, Quebec, Ireland, France and beyond. Tracy's fiddling pulses through tasteful arrangements of dance tunes and resonates with beauty on traditional slow airs. Keith's gentle and expressive singing in English and French is balanced by the drive and power of his guitar playing and percussion. Combined, they produce a range and richness of sound that is striking for a duo. Their playing is seamless, the result of years of playing together and touring across the U.S., Canada and in Europe. Their repertoire also includes Keith's original compositions (many of which are included in the Black Isle Music tune collection). He is a prolific tunesmith with a writing style strongly based on traditional dance music. Keith and Becky were two-thirds of the popular Vermont trio, Nightingaleand are veterans of several other bands including Childsplay and Assembly(Keith), and Wild Asparagus (Becky). Becky released her first solo recording,Evergreen, in 2001. Keith's album,Bound For Canaan(traditional songs from Eastern Canada and New England) was released in the summer of 2005. He has recently rededicated himself to his work as a solo performer.
Mike + Ruthy follow the next week, Thursday, November 8. Although notloB usually presents one concert per month at the Loring-Greenough House, when opportunity knocks, Boudreau answers the door. "We had finalized booking Keith and Becky when I received a phone call from Mike Merenda about a November date as part of their northeast tour." Having presented Ruthy once as a member of Sometymes Why, twice as a duo, and again as a part of Ruthy's dad's (Jay Ungar) The Ungar Family Band, Boudreau has a soft spot in his heart for these Mammals. "There are artists one just does not say 'no' to. Ed Stanley, President of the Tuesday Club, which owns the Loring-Greenough House, was very understanding and accommodating."
As a duo Mike + Ruthyhave refined their sound down to the very core of acoustic American music, demonstrating an uncommon ability to create songs as lyrically sophisticated as Bob Dylan or Leonard Cohen and as harmonically beautiful as Gillian Welch & David Rawlings or Simon & Garfunkel. With their arsenal of fiddle, banjo, guitar, ukulele and their hallmark harmony singing, a Mike + Ruthy concert is overstuffed with soulful songs and stories and a timeless sound that is spellbinding and pure.
Over a decade of touring has taken them worldwide where they've performed well over a thousand concerts in listening rooms, living rooms and festivals as well as performances at NYC's Carnegie Hall accompanying Arlo Guthrie in 2005 (with their former band The Mammals) and Madison Square Garden as part of Pete Seeger's 90th birthday celebration in 2009.
Mike + Ruthy's 4th release is entitled "The NYC EP" featuring the premiere recording of "My New York City" a beautifully revived Woody Guthrie lyric from the Woody Guthrie Archives. The song will also be included on "My Name is New York," a 4-CD compilation being issued by Woody Guthrie Publications including new recordings by Pete Seeger, Arlo Guthrie, and Bob Dylan and more.
Booking notloB's December artist is currently" in the works."
Living legends and rising young stars performing in a 261-year-old house make notloB Parlour Concerts a Boston treasure.

By William Severini Kowinski
(as published in Urthona (UK) Issue 21 2004-05.)
In 1999, independent art curator Mary Jane Jacobs was exchanging news with her old friend from college days, Jacquelynn Baas, former director of the University of Berkeley Art Museum and an independent curator based in northern California. Jacobs told her that some New York City curators had noticed that a number of artists were getting involved in Buddhism, and their interest was influencing their work. These curators were talking about sponsoring a program on the role of Buddhism in contemporary art.
"It's about time," Baas responded. "There really should be something like that on the West Coast, too---historically, demographically, this is where a lot of Buddhist influence really happened."
So while the East Coast started the Buddhist Project, Baas and Jacobs organized a western U.S. consortium called "Awake: Art, Buddhism and the Dimensions of Consciousness." Centered in the San Francisco Bay Area, it also included educational efforts and public programs in Los Angeles, Dallas, Seattle, Portland and Chicago. These public programs began in the Bay Area in 2001 with an exhibit of Zen painting and calligraphy at San Francisco's Asian Art Museum, a performance of Mien (Southeast Asian) Ghost Tales at the East Bay Center for Performing Arts, and a Buddhist film festival at the Castro Theatre. Programs continued into 2004 with "The Circle of Bliss: Buddhist Meditation Art" at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, and in 2005 a Richard Tuttle exhibition will begin at the Dallas Museum of Art. Other programs may still be scheduled into 2006 and beyond.
|Cloud Gate Dance Theater
But for all this activity, Jacquelyn Baas believes the heart of Awake was a series of more private events. "The Buddhism Project in New York emphasized public programs," she said. "We began with a series of seminars for arts professionals. We really wanted to educate programmers in the arts in this important cultural area, and we wanted to affect how institutions present their art to audiences."
The main event of each weekend was the presentation and discussion of a "white paper" previously circulated. These papers were presented by psychologist Eleanor Rosch (University of California at Berkeley), writer Marcia Tucker, Ken McLeod (Executive Director of Unfettered Mind, a Buddhist teaching and counseling service in Los Angeles), artist Suzanne Lacy, New York psychiatrist and author Mark Epstein, literature scholar Linda Bamber (Tufts University), art critic( and practicing Buddhist) Kay Larson, and artist and musician Laurie Anderson.
"It was wonderful," recalls Hollis Ashby, Associate Director of Cal Performances at UC Berkeley. "We all work in a very fast-paced environment and don't often have the time to slow our own processes down to consider other elements of art and experiencing art. But we were captive for three days and had to experience the world in that moment."
Some of that work was done by Green Gulch itself, a Zen temple that is also a working farm, in a lush and remote valley just a short walk from Muir Beach. "Just being in that atmosphere encourages you to really focus, so you aren't thinking about the next project or having your feet in six months from now," Ashby added.
But being "where the cell phones don't work" (as Heidi Zuckerman Jacobson, UC Berkeley Art Museum put it) was only the first step. As presenters, they were mulling over ways to enhance the experience of audiences. "I believe in the power of contemporary art to effect change," Jacobson said. "At least on the a level of personal perception and self-awareness."
Though one attraction of the meetings was being among "a very high level and potentially influential group," Jacobson found that "we started talking about things we do professionally as a practice rather than a career. I like that idea very much, and that's something I've really adopted."
For Jordan Simmons, artistic director of East Bay Center for the Performing Arts, it was a glimpse into how the other half thinks. "The contemporary art world has its own language for social justice and social inclusion, and I was not so aware of it," he said. " I was pleasantly surprised that some of the artists were contemplating issues that are very important to community based organizations."
All the participants interviewed felt they learned a great deal from these meetings, and several made changes in their professional and personal lives as a result. "I'm a complete novice," Hollis admits. "Most people there had some kind of meditative practice, but I didn't. So this was something I hadn't considered before-how does having a practice influence an artist's work. And how could someone like myself learn from that to improve my own awareness when I'm experiencing art."
"I'm interested in the notion of 'Beginner's Mind,' of always bringing a fresh perspective," Jacobson said. "I do these conversations with artists in public programs, and I used to prepare a lot of questions in advance. Now I'm listening more, and I'm more interested in what's occurring as we are where we are. I think I've done more effective and interesting-and perhaps more truthful---conversations."
Some of the seminars had effects focused and reinforced by events in the world. Several participants noted that the first presentation after the events of 9-11-01 by Ken McCloud on "Impermanence," which included a series of meditations on death, was particularly powerful.
Suzanne Lacy's presentation on "Engaged Art, Engaged Buddhism" occurred as subsequent political and military events began unfolding.
Another conference event often mentioned was the "Dharma Combat," a verbal exchange between student and teacher, demonstrated by Kay Larson ( who practices with John Daido Loori at Zen Mountain Monastery in New York) and Yvonne Rand (who began practicing at San Francisco Zen Center in 1966, and was a leader there for 28 years.) " Kay and I both realized afterwards that we communicated to the group something about the fruits of meditation that I'm not sure we could have done in any other way," Rand recalled."...that another person's suffering is my suffering, it's not separable."
With her knowledge of Zen practice, psychology and art, Yvonne Rand was a pervasive presence throughout "Awake." She served on the steering committee, and since her home and meditation center (called Goat-in-the-Road) is close to Green Gulch, several conference participants as well as visiting artists involved in "Awake"-sponsored events, stayed there.
"It depends a lot on the particular artist, but I certainly am convinced that the mind in the moment of creativity and the mind in the moment of meditation are the same mind," Rand said. " It is an openness sometimes called in Buddhist practice 'the mind of don't know.'" She finds it in contemporary artists from Korea whose work was featured in an "Awake" exhibit at the San Francisco Asian Art Museum, and she finds it in a famous modern artist like Degas. "There's a quality in his sculpture that resonates with anyone engaged in the Buddhist meditation tradition [in which] one is always seeking to stay open to what's not known, to the unexpected-- in fact to develop a capacity and a taste for the unexpected and the constantly changing nature of experience rather than what's certain. I think most artists and poets are also working that edge."
Why are artists attracted to Buddhism? "To appreciate the practice you have to practice," Kay Larson said. " To appreciate Buddhism, you can catch some of the sensibility by being aware of issues like not clinging to things or ideas, and open yourself to the flow of mind and experience---and that's what artists do anyway. In a way, Buddhism shows them what they're already doing, and gives them a larger frame for it."
What can presenters and viewers of art learn from a Buddhist approach to art? Jordan Simmons participated in Awake partly to help him in working with some of the newer Asian immigrants, the Mien from northern Laos. Some 2500 have settled in the area served by his East Bay Center for Performing Arts. Buddhism is part of their culture, in combination with aspects of Taoism, shamanism and animism. But in the emphasis on the integrity of experiencing art as well as creating it derived from Buddhist meditation, Simmons found a compelling reason for all people to value art. "For the audience what's important is not some status experience but a real experience of the work. And when we teach young people to do art, we are teaching them to value their own experience of life."

5 Subtle Signs Someone You Know is in an Abusive Relationship
The signs of relationship abuse aren't always obvious. But in the United States, 1 in 4 women and 1 in 9 men have experienced some form of physical violence by an intimate partner, according to the National Coalition Against Domestic Violence. You likely know someone who has experienced some level of domestic violence, but you may have been unaware of what to look for to help. And physical abuse, such as bruising, isn't the only type of abuse. It can be verbal, emotional, and mental, too. Here five subtle signs that someone you know is in an abusive relationship.
1. They pay significantly more or less attention to their appearance
If someone has stopped caring about the way they look, it could be because their confidence has been shattered. If a woman puts on weight and stops doing her makeup, she may feel less confident because of an abusive relationship.
In contrast, abusive relationships can also make women (and sometimes men) feel like they need to meet a certain standard in order to be appreciated by their partner. A woman may begin wearing a lot of makeup, get in great shape, and always leave the house looking her absolute best in order to gain acceptance from her partner.
2. Their social media presence changes
When someone is in an abusive relationship, they may not feel like they want to advertise their life on social media anymore — or, their partner has decided they're no longer allowed to post certain photos. If someone had a significant social media presence and it changes once they start a relationship, it could be due to a controlling partner. Plus, if a woman follows several men on social media (as most people do), her partner may not want other men seeing photos of her. She may not be able to post photos freely for fear of being punished in her relationship.
3. They're not as reachable as they used to be
If your friend stops answering phone calls or is never around to make plans, it may be against their will. In an abusive relationship, the partner has become controlling and might only allow your friend to spend time with who their partner deems appropriate. In most cases, the only person they can spend time with is the partner. If you've called your friend several times and she never gets back to you, she may not be as busy as you think — she may actually be "not allowed" to make plans with you anymore. Most abusive partners think the woman will confide in others if she hangs out with them.
4. They've become disinterested in hobbies they once loved
If the two of you used to love playing tennis, yet every time you extend the invite she says no, it could signal she's in an abusive relationship. A lack of confidence plus a controlling partner both mean she has less interest in the things she once loved. She can only do the things he loves and no longer gets the freedom to enjoy her own hobbies. Plus, doing things without him gives her the opportunity to run into another man or see friends of the opposite sex, and that's not allowed.
5. You've caught them in several lies
If you've asked your best friend why she isn't around only to realize that she lied about the reason, it doesn't necessarily mean she is a bad friend or doesn't want to see you — it's possible that she doesn't want to admit her partner controls every aspect of her life. Catching her in a lie may mean he told her she couldn't do something, but she didn't want to admit that to her friends. Lies cover something up, and if you've known her for years, she probably isn't covering up genuine disinterest — she could be covering up abusive behavior.

Philippines imposes travel ban on South Korea's coronavirus-impacted provinceReuters | Manila | Updated: 26-02-2020 12:43 IST | Created: 26-02-2020 11:41 IST
The Philippines on Wednesday barred travelers from South Korea's coronavirus-impacted North Gyeongsang province from entering the country in an effort to contain the spread of the pathogen. Philippine presidential spokesman Salvador Panelo told a media briefing the government will also conduct a risk assessment within 48 hours to determine if the travel ban needs to be expanded to other parts of South Korea.
South Korea reported 169 new coronavirus cases on Wednesday, pushing to total tally to more than 1,000, with the numbers expected to rise as the government widens its testing. The Philippines has confirmed three cases of the coronavirus at home, all Chinese nationals, including a 44-year-old man who died.

Oasis Lanz Beach Mate, located in Costa Teguise, is one of Lanzarote's most attractive tourist destinations. It is the ideal place to relax and disconnect, and also do sports, have fun and enjoy so much you will want to come back.
Av. del Jablillo, 5,
35508 Costa Teguise, Las Palmas
9 miles from Lanzarote Airport
Parking with easy access (for a fee)
City bus stop 70 yds. away
Ideal for exploring the area
Of the four main beaches on Costa Teguise, Las Cucharas is the largest and the only one with golden sand. It is ideal for windsurfers and the PWA World Windsurfing Tour is held here every year. Playa Los Charcos with white sand; Playa Bastián with white sand and volcanic stones; and El Jabillo, the smallest and quietest beach, complete the quartet. Although further away, the beaches Playa Famara, Playa Blanca and the island of La Graciosa are all must-sees.
For sporty types, there is also a golf course (less than 3 km away) and a wide variety of water sports (sailing, surfing, kite surfing, etc.) and an underwater museum for scuba diving lovers.
If you are a culture lover, don't miss the exhibitions and events organised by the Art and Tourism Centres of Cabildo de Lanzarote, which includes the César Manrique Foundation.
Discover the renowned and unique vineyards in La Geria and taste the products of the different "Wine Routes". Around the resort you can also find a wide variety of restaurants, bars and pubs, shops and markets to enjoy a pleasant day of shopping.
Lanzarote was declared a Biosphere Reserve by UNESCO in 1993 and over 40% of its territory is a protected area, which delights hikers, cyclists and nature lovers. Timanfaya National Park is the most iconic area on the island, also called Tierra de Fuego. The volcanic eruptions that occurred in the 17th and 18th centuries left very interesting geomorphological structures, which together with the lack of vegetation, the variety of colours and the contrasting silhouettes from the volcanoes and the coast give the park an extraordinary beauty.

Located just over an hours drive from Bangkok, the Khao Kheow Open Zoo is a great retreat for families looking for an alternative experience for a holiday with the little ones in tow. Situated among rolling green hills, the Khao Kheow Open Zoo is a conservation and research haven that has created highly interactive animal habitats for recreation and education. The zoo's grounds are sprawling, spanning over a few hills and ridges, with large swaths of land for each of it's themed areas. Buggies are available for rental for ease of travel throughout the zoo.
To best experience the zoo, an overnight stay at the Es-Ta-Te Boutique Resort is recommended. Charming white tents dot the landscape of the resort with deers freely roaming the grounds. Guided tours of the zoo and meals are available with your stay which takes away the stress of planning the children's activities.
Check-in was a breeze and soon we found ourselves in a fully air-conditioned tent with very comfortable bedding. Tents come equipped with a mini fridge perfect for storing treats and meals for the little ones.
After a quick lunch, the group was whisked away in a large buggy for a zoo tour and animal feeding session. Each family was given a bag of treats for the animals. As the buggy winds its way through the zoo, you get an idea of the scale of the entire park, it's huge and at every turn, animals are freely roaming in very spacious habitats. First stop was the Eld deer park, the children needed no encouragement to approach the deers with the provided treats of long beans and corn.
The rest of the afternoon was spent in the African Savanna, Elephant and Big Cat zones in the zoo, where there was opportunity to feed rhinoceros and elephants. The afternoon tour culminates in a live show of the park's cat family.
As evening approaches, the buggy whisks the group back to the resort for some free time and dinner. As the tents do not have ensuite bath rooms, the shower and washroom areas are a short walk away from the tent and are kept spotless by the resort staff. The showers were tents as well, each with it's own rain shower and hot water.
As night falls, the resort grounds are equally charming in twilight. For larger families, twin tents are available with their very own sitting area.
To round up the stay, there is a night safari buggy tour after dinner and a trip to the children's petting zoo and the huge avairy the next morning after breakfast.
As children growing up in the city, it was great that the little ones got the chance to interact with nature and animals during the stay. And given that mummy and daddy still got to enjoy the creature comforts we are used to, this was an experience where everyone won.

North Korea's weapons pose a threat to the US homeland, says a top official
Weeks after Kim Jong-un boasted of his nation's nuclear missiles, General Joseph Dunford, of the US Marine Corps Chief of Staff, said America needs to change the way it "develops leaders" and "makes decisions".
In an interview with the National Defence University magazine, Dunford said: "There was a time, not long ago, when we planned for a conflict that might be contained to the peninsula.
"But today, North Korea's intercontinental ballistic missile, cyber, and space capabilities could quickly threaten the homeland and our allies in the Asia-Pacific region.
"Deterring and, if necessary, defeating a threat from North Korea requires the Joint Force to be capable of nearly instant integration across regions, domains and functions.
"This means more than just fielding cutting-edge technologies that ensure a competitive advantage across all domains — something we must continue to do. Keeping pace with the speed of war means changing the way we approach challenges, build strategy, make decisions, and develop leaders."
Shortly after North Korea's newest nuclear development – a plutonium producing nuclear reactor – was revealed, Katina Adams, a US State department spokeswoman, urged Jong-un's state to stop fuelling "tensions" in the region
Ms Adams said: "We continue to call on North Korea to refrain from actions and rhetoric that further raise tensions in the region and focus instead on taking concrete steps toward fulfilling its international commitments."
Inside North Korea's new £162m residential street
Thu, January 26, 2017
Kim Jong-Un has ordered the completion of a new residential district building project in Pyongyang 'at any cost' by the birthday of his late grandfather in April, the North's state media said.

North Korea has released a series of threatening statements directed at President Trump over the last few weeks.
On Saturday, North Korean officials released a statement to the country's Central TV network, which said: "The US will face a position more miserable than that in the Pueblo case if it forgets that lesson and frantically pursues new ways to provoke war against the north."
Han Min-Koo, South Korea's defence minister has constantly urged international leaders to take his threats seriously.
Min Koo added: "North Korea is making threats of nuclear development and intercontinental ballistic missiles (ICBM) this year as well."

The congregation was founded in 1819, moved into the Washington Street Christian Meetinghouse in 1832, and called its first minister in 1840. The Reverend Jordinn Nelson Long is its currently serving minister, and the Society President is Lawrence DeSalvatore.[2] UUSF is a member congregation of the Boston-based Unitarian Universalist Association, and a designated GLBTQA Welcoming Congregation, a UUA Honor Congregation, and a part of the Green Sanctuary movement. Services are held in the neo-Gothic sanctuary at 10:30 a.m. from September through mid-June each year.[3] The church was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1996.
The Unitarian Memorial Church in Fairhaven Massachusetts was built, financed and donated to the Unitarians in 1904 by Henry H. Rogers in memory of his mother, Mary Eldredge Huttleston. The church was designed by Boston architect Charles Brigham in a Gothic Revival style.[4] It is one hundred fourteen feet in height, one hundred feet long in body and fifty-three feet wide. The nave is thirty-two feet wide and seventy-one feet long. The main aisle is sixty-two feet long and six feet wide. The church, parish house and former parsonage (now Harrop Center) of the Unitarian Society are so placed as to form three sides of a quadrangle, set among well-kept lawns and shrubbery. Granite (locally quarried) with Indiana limestone decorative carvings dominate the exterior while marble and limestone carvings dominate the interior. All stonework artistry was created by forty-five Italian craftsmen brought to Fairhaven by Rogers.
All the woodwork in the sanctuary is English bog oak carved by forty-five Bavarian craftsmen. No two carvings are alike on the thirty-two pews, the ornate pulpit, the organ pipe cases, the choir screen or the doors. In the rafters above the pews are ten wooden angels covered in beaten gold. Each ten foot high angel holds articles and bear inscriptions symbolizing ten attributes of the intellectual life. The south entrance has twelve bronze symbols of the zodiac inlaid in the marble floor.
The great tower, over one hundred and sixty-five feet high, of sparkling granite and carved limestone, is a landmark for many miles. There are one hundred eighty granite steps leading to the tower. In this tower is a finely adjusted D Chime of eleven bells. They weigh a total of 14,000 pounds and are played (struck) by iron hammers. The bells were cast by Chester Meneelly of the Meneelly Bell Company of Troy, New York. The original ringer's gallery is still in the tower even though the bells are now played both by hand or electronically from a small room in the sanctuary.
Bronze doorsEdit
At the south entrance to the sanctuary are the great bronze doors, extremely rich in design, each leaf is solid bronze weighing 2 1/4 tons. Following the Gothic outline of each leaf is a series of niches. Those on the exterior are canopied, each containing a finely modeled figure nine inches high. The thirty-eight statues represent great characters in the history of Christianity, covering a period of nineteen centuries.
Baptismal fontEdit
From the cloister with its ornate bronze gates and marble mosaic floor we enter the foyer with the baptismal font. The font sits on elegant white Indian marble inlaid with bronze lettering. Over the font hangs a large oak canopy carved by Johannes Kirchmayer with ten angels each holding a scroll engraved with one of the Ten Commandments. Above them are ten standing figures of men who preached and spread Christianity throughout the world. Below the majestic vaulted ceiling in four corners are stone carvings symbolizing the four stages of womanhood: Infant, Youth, Maturity and Old Age. The beautiful bronze medallions inlaid in the marble floor represent Matthew, Mark, Luke and John.
The organ manufactured by the Hutchings and Votey Company was installed in 1909. With 2,300 pipes (24 ranks) on 3 manuals, it was considered one of the finest in the country at that time. When the new hot-air heating system installed in 1968 ruined the Hutchings pneumatic mechanism, the organ was replaced by Roche Organ Co of Taunton MA in 1971 saving exterior casework and 12 original ranks increasing the number of ranks to 60, 3450 pipes. The console was relocated from the left side to the center of the organ loft at that time. A digital upgrade of the console was accomplished by Barry Turley in 2008. Today, the Organ remains among the finest for its size. All the ornamental pipes on the organ case are covered in beaten gold, the color of clouded silver. They are decorated very ornately.
Stained glass windowsEdit
The stained glass windows are the work of American Impressionist artist, Robert Reid. They cover the theme of the birth of Jesus in the Memorial Window utilizing color and shading from cool blues to warm earth tones through the nine clerestory windows from East to West. Seven of these windows are titled with one of the Beatitudes (or Blessed Be's) which Jesus was teaching his Disciples as illuminated in the glorious twenty-four foot high Sermon on the Mount window located on the west wall. One notable effect of the windows is the natural flesh quality in the figures. Two years were spent in their design and execution. These stained glass windows were Reid's most prized work, a masterpiece set and his only effort in stained glass.

Vodka Distillery Infographic Video
Whether or not to invest millions into a new facility or product is a serious question for the boardroom and stakeholders. For this vodka distillery it required a weighty in-depth report: covering the multiple process innovations, plant designs and operations. However, distilling the key report information into a short video overview is extremely beneficial for getting everyone onto the same page fast and effectively.
Critical to creating this 2 minute video was the briefing and project management. The script, design, graphics and narration must work in concert to condense the detailed levels of the technical report into a lean and digestible video summary of creating a brand new manufacturing plant.
In two minutes anyone can understand the broad overview, and then progress into their relevant area of finer detail as their spheres dictate.

This is my very beautiful friend Georgina, aka George. I first met George 3+ years ago when I was just beginning to draw faces. She has seen my portraiture develop on Instagram and a few weeks ago she messaged to ask if she could be one of my daily faces. I jumped at the chance of having a live model and we had a lovely time chatting while I sketched yesterday. I thought the portrait was a bit of a disaster when I started to add colour to it this morning but suddenly, after about an hour, George appeared on the page in front of me.
Drawing someone you know is always a little more anxiety-inducing than drawing a Sktchy face because capturing a likeness feels so much more important – so once I could see a likeness I was happy. I don't need to have a perfect likeness but I do want to capture the essence of a person and I feel like I've done that here. There is something very "George" about this portrait.
I drew this on Bristol paper with an HB pencil, Copic multiliners and Copic markers and finished it with Prismacolor coloured pencils.

These critiques — and at worst attacks — are part of why some members of the public have such little trust in the media. According to a June Gallup/Knight Foundation survey, some Americans said they believe 80 percent of the news they see on social media is biased and that 64 percent of it is misinformation. They said they believe 44 percent of the news they get directly from newspapers, television or radio is misinformation.
Those disinclined to trust the media get reinforcement when highly influential politicians and partisan media figures elevate the critiques, sometimes making personal jabs at journalists' motives and their character. What may start as a difference of opinion eventually becomes a direct assault on the humanity of those in the media — something that those following press freedom issues have witnessed in other parts of the world.
Fox News host Tucker Carlson recently told his viewers they should distrust news reports from the "big news stations."
"If you're looking to understand what's actually happening in this country, always assume the opposite of whatever they're telling you on the big news stations," he said, disregarding the fact that Fox News leads the ratings of cable news outlets.
President Trump regularly attacks media outlets and specific journalists, knowing that large segments of his base will view any outlet remotely critical of him negatively and turn around to boo those outlets' representatives at rallies.
It is not the fault of the president or media personalities that a man with a vendetta against the Capital Gazette killed five of the newspaper's employees on Thursday. But calling journalists the enemy of the American people, which Trump does regularly, does not help promote civility.
Over the past several years, the vitriol directed at members of the media has intensified in ways few Americans talk about any other professional community. When someone determines an individual's identity is primarily in their profession, if that person's views of that profession are low, there are real ramifications.
After Thursday's deadly newsroom incident, journalists took to social media to share what that has looked like in their own lives.
It may be hard to remember this in our times where partisan commentary is increasingly prevalent, but it is not the job of journalists to affirm the political views or other opinions of their readers — and especially not of the politicians they cover.
Thursday's shooting is prompting memorials to the deceased journalists, discussions about the mission of the profession, and recognition of the perils of it. Here's hoping those themes become a more prevalent part of the discourse.

BEIJING • Faced with a renewed stock market slide that has wiped out US$5 trillion (S$7 trillion) in trading value, China is on the prowl for scapegoats.
The authorities yesterday announced a probe into allegations of market malpractice involving the regulator, while the official Xinhua news agency called for efforts to "purify" the capital markets. It also carried remarks by a central bank researcher attributing the global rout to an expected hike in interest rates by the US Federal Reserve.
The Shanghai Composite Index has plunged more than 40 per cent from its peak, after concerns over China's economy helped snap a months-long rally encouraged by state media.
The authorities have repeatedly blamed market manipulators and foreign forces since the sell-off began in June and led officials to launch an unprecedented programme to support stocks. Now, after suspending that programme, the administration has embarked on a new round of fault-finding.
"The authorities have been too involved in the stock market and now they're trying to pass the responsibilities to others," said economics professor Hu Xingdou of the Beijing Institute of Technology.
Police are investigating people connected to the China Securities Regulatory Commission, Citic Securities and Caijing magazine on suspicion of offences including illegal securities trading and spreading false information, Xinhua reported.
Another Xinhua report citing Dr Yao Yudong, head of the People's Bank of China's Research Institute of Finance, attributed the global market rout to expectation of a Fed rate increase next month, not concern about the Chinese economy.
