A rose by any other name… Shakespeare
That is misleading — the title, I mean. This isn't about liars at all… or roses, either, for that matter. Rather, it's about the Great Learned, those educated elitists so much better than the common citizenry, the authoritarians who set the standards for the rest of us to follows.
So, what's with LIARS? you are asking. Acronym… what else? Learned Individual Ascribing Refinement to Self. It's sort of an intellectual turf-marking exercise.
I have heard it said that English is the most difficult language to learn (for a non-native, anyway). If so, that might have something to do with the fact that our language, like our country, is a great melting pot of cultures. Our early history is a relocation of various ethnicities from across Europe to the New World, people who transplanted their cultures and languages to America's fertile soils. Inevitably, cultures and languages (eventually, from all around the globe) blended into a unique offspring, the American experience. Actually, though, that whole process just made a real mess out of the king's English.
Understandably, the only persons who could preserve and pass on previous cultures in the written format were the educated ones. In the far past, if you were a commoner (as almost every one was), you spent all day, every day of the week, breaking your back to provide basic subsistence for yourself and family. You had no free time to learn an alphabet and writing. The best you could do was pass down skills and a spoken history to your children, It was the upper class, living off the wealth provided by the commoners, that had all the time to learn and refine themselves while preserving and decoding the written history of forgotten cultures. Should you become proficient in a chosen field, you could become one of the Great Learned (pronounced "Smart Dude"), move further up in the ivory tower and just send down periodic pronouncements of your great findings and intellectual prowess for the lesser citizenry to ponder.
Many European languages have a common wellspring — Latin (Veni, vidi, vici, y'all). While that means they employ a common alphabet, it doesn't mean they use the same pronunciations. The Great Learned, in translating from one language to another, kept the same spellings from Language A to Language B, even though B pronounced things differently. Why write "bordeaux" (bordux?) and guacamole (gwakamole?) in english when you want me to say bordough and wahcamole? Maybe the translator (a Great Learned individual) just wants to show off his language skills and refinement. Today, what with universal education and the internet, it seems that everyone is a Great Learned individual. Mispronounce "guacamole" and watch your beer buds snicker and condescendingly point out your "error." Yep, your buds are so much more refined than you.

"What IS Java?!" my customers often ask. Besides coffee, Java is a programming language, and since 2006 has been licensed and handled by the GNU open-source project. It's original intent was to make a streamlined, object-oriented language that would work on any platform. So you'll find Java on all kinds of devices from PC's to smartphones. Android is a fine example of Java-based software, although Google broke away and created their own version of the platform. The language has a rocky history, with Microsoft initially helping Sun Microsystems (now Oracle) push the standards, then later becoming the villain in a dramatic turn about. When Microsoft was sued by the DOJ for anti-trust practices, Java was part of the lawsuit. The claim was that they were implementing Java with the intent of eventually destroying it. Microsoft (MS) settled, and stopped shipping Java with Windows. Nowadays you have to download it yourself. Meanwhile MS started pushing .NET as a competitor language. It's all based on the C# language core, but the big argument is about open vs. closed source. MS doesn't like open-source software. After all, that's how they make their money. So ANY open-source software is a threat to their livelihood. Meanwhile Sun Microsystems/Oracle has helped foster and grow the Java platform to be one of the most popular and stable languages in the world. For you, the end users, what's all this mean? Well, now you know what Java and .NET are all about. They help bring your devices to life, with cool apps that are often web-based. And YES you should update these two whenever prompted. Sometimes they find security or other glitches that are fixed with updates. BUT watch out! The Java install often tries to add some other junk software, like the ASK toolbar for example. Keep your eye out for a check box to disable this.
Posts Tagged '#gnu'
Open Source Software is great. It is built like a community project, with lots of people writing code, testing, and helping with all the details. This is in stark contrast to closed-source, or "proprietary" software like Microsoft's (and Apple's). The software is often free, and published under the "GNU General Public License" project, or GNU GPL for short. Some great examples that run under Windows are LibreOffice, Firefox, and Firebird. Some are operating systems, like Linux, or languages, like Java. All these products have a large following, and don't cost users a dime if they choose. You might think that would result in lower quality, but evidently not. A recent study by Coverity shows exactly the OPPOSITE: the open-source stuff had LESS MISTAKES and problems in the code than their proprietary counterparts, according to a recent article in TechWorld. You can support open source software by downloading, using, and donating to the authors or the project.

Access to traditional banking resources is one of the most significant roadblocks affecting the medical marijuana industry. Businesses in some states have gained traction in changing this barrier. However, upcoming commercial medical marijuana businesses in Michigan are largely predicting to remain unbanked when licenses are issued. The state is proactively working towards possible solutions. However in the mean time businesses struggle to find trustworthy and reliable marijuana banking options.
In all other aspects, commercial licensees will need to look and act the part of a legitimately ran business. This includes full inventory tracking, business record keeping, and a highly-regulated process and compliance environment to follow. Making the situation more cumbersome (but not impossible), is the fact that banking is rarely an option for these types of businesses. Traditional cash and payment tracking structures are not available. Instead, most tracking is manual. Manual tracking can leave room for errors or incompleteness.
In December 2017, the Michigan Department of Insurance and Financial Services (DIFS) issued a letter to the Board of Directors and Management of Michigan State-Charted Credit Unions regarding providing financial services to the medical marijuana industry. The letter begins with informing the Board that a formal decision process must be followed for credit unions deciding whether or not to offer services to marijuana related businesses. The letter states "Even a determination to not provide such services must be a deliberate board decision through the process outline […]1".
This means that a Michigan credit union must now go through a due diligence process to evaluate whether they should work with businesses in the industry or not. They cannot just say "no" without going through the process. See the full letter here. 1http://www.michigan.gov/documents/difs/OCU_Letter_2017-CU-03_608964_7.pdf
Historically, many credit unions have not been open to doing business with medical cannabis businesses.
Even though guidance was first released in 2014 by FinCen to credit unions, the risks and additional compliance processes the financial institution would need to follow, even just to see if banking with a marijuana business was simply an option, were generally too resource consuming to consider.
The DIFS letter in effect now prevents credit unions from automatically 'discriminating' against state licensed medical cannabis businesses that are otherwise in compliance. The letter also references the 2008 MMMA and includes individuals operating under these laws.
The letter also provides guidance to credit unions on evaluating whether the institution will offer services to the industry. The good news is that if they are required to go through a fully documented decision making process anyway, this will be one less reason for the institution to continue to reject offering services to a medical marijuana business.
How Can You Effectively Approach a Potential Credit Union Banking Partner?
From this Accountant's perspective, make sure your business has its record keeping and accounting plans and procedures in order. Accurate business financial information is extremely important to banks, credit unions, and other financial institutions. Traditionally, financial institution partners often require annual audits of businesses and their financial accounting records. This is regardless of the business's industry. The business has a financial responsibility to the credit union in the sense of "accuracy". In return, the banking partner often requires an independent financial audit. An audit can help ensure financial records are complete and accurate.
Having a thorough accounting process in place or in your business plan can help show your commitment to keeping good financial records. Approach the credit union or bank as a business partner, similar to an investor. The financial institution will be concerned with the accuracy of your financial information. Another concern is how your business intends to maintain this accuracy and comply with all financial requirements.
Work with a CPA and professional bookkeeper who specializes in the medical cannabis industry to ensure these expectations are met. To demonstrate that you are serious about proper accounting, one option is to present formal business financial projection statements. These include a full balance sheet, income statement, and statement of cash flows prepared by a CPA. Include also any financial record keeping plans and CPA attested information submitted with the license application.
The letter goes on to reference the Cole Memo, which, even more recently, was rescinded by the U.S Attorney General. The letter provides some clarity to the confusion and explains how the Cole Memo was never law to begin with. Instead, the letter was only guidance on how banking institutions can comply with FinCen requirements.
Reading through the letter, one gains a perspective of all the additional procedures a financial institution must follow in order to work with a cannabis business.
Understanding the hurdles they must overcome can help provide opportunities to work with the credit union. Your business plan should include procedures to help ensure compliance requirements are met.
Expect too that the financial institution may also need to hire additional employees. At the least they will need to provide specialized training in order to offer services to the medical marijuana industry. Approached correctly, a credit union or bank may see this an opportunity for job creation. Opportunities also include increased revenue streams, and modern, forward thinking service offerings.
Michigan is proving its commitment to moving forward with the medical marijuana industry. The state is fostering an approach designed to create a legitimate business environment, one that will significantly impact the state's economy.
The further we get into 2018, the more likely that traditional banking options will become available to Michigan's medical marijuana businesses. Be ready to do business with them!

Raffingers Foundation Charity Ball 2019
'Find a mask and wear it well…so your true identity none can tell' Join us for our Charity Ball on Saturday 2 November at Woolston…
Raffingers Foundation was formed in 2016, in memory of Jason Kew, a dear husband and friend, who sadly lost his life to pancreatic cancer, as well as to honour those family members of the firm who have been lost to ovarian cancer. Approximately 4% of pancreatic cancer patients survive for five years or more from diagnosis; this figure is 46% for those affected by ovarian cancer. Therefore, we host a range of fundraising days throughout the year to help raise money, as well as awareness. We invite you to join us at any of these events as well as to fundraise for us.
With an estimated 2.5 million people in the UK affected by cancer, Raffingers are pleased to announce ' Raffingers Foundation', a charity we have set up to honour those affected by Pancreatic and Ovarian cancer.
The foundation is run by volunteers, which means every single penny raised is distributed in one of two ways:
1. Directly to research projects conducted by Pancreatic Cancer Research Fund and Ovarian Cancer Action.
2. Directly to families affected by pancreatic or ovarian cancer and experiencing financial difficulties. This money is used to help with costs, such as private counselling for any family members, training, and equipment.
Amount Raised
Charity Number: 1171885

Whether you have been affected directly by one of these cancers or are a family member, we can provide funding of up to £500.

These days, being a beggar has become a type of job. Large streets and small alleys, you can see them everywhere. Basically, they are all organized and disciplined. and wide in variety. The young ones organize behind the scenes so that the children and old people go beg, not for food, but for money. For some, if you give them food, not only will he refuse, he will also yell at you. The money they beg for must be handed over to those above them. Even worse, the phenomenon of holding onto young girls and not letting them go in order to successfully get money happens too often.

text: I was planning to go home for a week to see my family over the Christmas holidays. Unfortunately I had the bad timing of getting very ill the night before I was scheduled to fly home. So, I stayed here in New York City in a bit of a melancholy mood. I woke up one morning before sunrise feeling especially glum. So I decided to take my camera and walk across the street to the park, Flushing Meadows-Corona Park, to see if I could lift my spirits. Even if I didn't find anything to shoot or I shoot things that I may not have an actual use for as an image, the act of getting out with my camera and exercising my eye is often helpful. As it was, I was attracted to a colony of gulls that had gathered around a couple of large shallow puddles of water created from a recent rain. The sun had just cleared the horizon and began to peak out of a low-lying cloud, giving the birds a beautiful soft edge of warm light around their bodies. I was trying to find an interesting angle and composition. How visually interesting can I make a scene of a bunch of gulls standing around? Luckily I had the light on my side. It occurred to me to lay on the ground at the same height as the gulls and see how that looked. I used a very shallow depth of field, and ended up with a few shots that I liked, and have settled on sharing this one. I like how the flare works to lead your eye to a single bird, which luckily also happens to be in focus. So, my spirits were lifted that morning. Thank you, gulls.

What I Learned at Bandcamp: Rags & RibbonsBandcamp and the album can be streamed in its entirety on Facebook.
The trio of Ben Weyerhaeuser, Chris Neff and Jon Hicks will begin touring in March through California, Arizona, New Mexico, Oklahoma, Colorado, Idaho and more, on their way to Texas for South by Southwest.
Recently the band posted on Facebook looking for Arizona bands to play a show with them. "Any Tucson, AZ people friends with us on here? If so, sound off below! We need your help!" Who better to suggest local bands than Arizonans themselves? Leave a comment on their page with suggestions for what bands you think Rags & Ribbons should add to the bill for their upcoming visit.
Who or what are your influences?
Read below to see what Hicks has to say about the band and his advice to our readers…
Some of our musical influences range from Muse, to the Deftones, to Brahms and much in between. But like everyone else, we have artistic, emotional, and philosophical influences, too. And we believe the influences of the people in our lives are most profound, helping us create something altogether different.
How did you come up with your name?
We spent almost a year deciding on this name. In the end, we liked the alliteration, versatility, and the imagery it evokes.
How did you guys meet/form the band?
Ben and I met in college and started making music together then. We (in a very fortunate twist of fate) found Chris on Craigslist.
Upcoming projects, where do you want to go from here?
We're touring down to SXSW this March, and will be touring the East Coast later this year. We also have some projects in the making that we'll publicize on our Facebook page as the year progresses.
What inspires your music?
The incredible scope of our shared human experience never ceases to be a source of inspiration for us. As musicians, we (perhaps vainly) strive with everything we do – writing, performing, etc, – to communicate that experience in a way that words can't, with the hopes that some day we will scratch the surface.
What musicians or bands do you look up to?
Those musicians that go beyond what they've heard to create something new. Also, the bands we've had the privilege of opening for and playing with like No Kind of Rider and Symmetry/Symmetry.
Why do you make music?
Creating a work of art that can really speak to people and influence their lives in a way that nothing else can is the single greatest triumph that a musician can hope for. It's these moments of triumph that make all the time, labor, and sacrifice worth it.
Anything else you'd like our readers to know about your band
Listen to things you haven't heard before. Take risks.

Thank you so much to all my friends for your support throughout the past twelve months. I appreciate it.
I charming lady from Belmont Church arrived this afternoon with a bouquet of church flowers in memory of the Dowager.
I was so taken aback with gratitude that, Timothy Belmont must admit, I did indulge in a tiny blubber when she left.
Apart from that, I've been fine all day. I went for a drive to the town of Antrim today.

Nicolas Roeg has died aged 90. The films he made in the 1970s and 80s were the type of films you read references to and in those days where things were scarcer you hoped they'd eventually be shown late at night on BBC2 (with a VHS cassette close by). Performance is a counter-cultrue classic, Mick Jagger, Anita Pallenberg and James Fox all going slowly mad in a big house in Notting Hill Gate (and when it was being made Keith Richards waiting in his car outside the set, paranoid about what Jagger and Pallenberg might be up to). The soundtrack was legendary too and this (with my surname too, which added to it for me) is a genuinely great Jagger vocal with slide guitar from Ry Cooder…
Memo From Turner (Alternate Version)
Mick Jones paid tribute to Roeg, his films and especially Performance in Big Audio Dynamite's 1985 single E=MC2, peppered with dialogue from the film and a verse about taking a trip in Powis Square with a pop star who dyed his hair, mobsters, gangland slayings and insanity Bohemian style. The opening verse is about Walkabout (1971) and the 3rd verse is about The Man Who Fell To Earth, another late night, video tape film that had the capacity to freak the viewer out.
The chorus took me years to fully work out and I'd sung all kinds of words along to it but I think it goes…
'Ritual ideas, relativity
Holy buildings, no people prophesy
Time slide, place to hide, nudge reality
Foresight, minds wide, magic imagery oh ho'.
Happy Mondays 1988 masterpiece Bummed was also Roeg and Performance inspired with at least 3 songs referencing the film. Mad Cyril includes dialogue from it including the line that opens the song 'We've been courteous'. The Mondays played it on Granada TV for Wilson's The Other Side Of Midnight show, a band at their peak…

The world watched over the summer as a three-year-old orca calf wasted away. Multiple organizations and governments tried last-ditch medical efforts to save Scarlet, or J50, but they came up short.
Many orca in the critically-endangered southern resident population have been diagnosed with peanut head -- a sign of starvation -- in the past. Most, like Scarlet, don't make it.
"Unfortunately, right now we're much more reactive than proactive," said SeaDoc Society veterinarian Joe Gaydos. "I'd love to see that change."
SeaDoc Society is a nonprofit born out of the UC Davis School of Veterinary Medicine. It's trying to form a new medical database to diagnose and treat individual, ailing orcas.
The project is being modeled after a personalized veterinary approach used on critically endangered mountain gorillas in Africa.

Dividend Diplomats Recent Buy – Procter & Gamble (PG)
Earnings season has been upon us for this past quarter and wow, things are starting to move, shake, drop, pop and roll. On April 19th, things were no different. After seeing quite a few stocks that are strong dividend players drop, one company caught our eye. I messaged Bert saying, "Alert, PG DROP!". The rest was history. We both ended up purchasing additional positions into Procter & Gamble (PG)!
Using Side Hustles to Paydown My Mortgage
I hope at this point it is not a secret that Lanny and I are doing whatever it takes and side-hustling our tail off to earn every extra dollar we can. In fact, I am earning some Swagbucks as I am writing this article as I have a video running in the background. We always say that every dollar counts and every dollar makes a difference in our pursuit of financial freedom. I've been thinking long and hard about that phrase recently, especially as I spend hours staring at a computer watching spreadsheets open at work or I walk to the water cooler for a needed break. After a conversation with Lanny at the water coolers one of those days, something he said caused a light bulb to suddenly turn on and I cannot wait to starting using my side hustle income in a different manner, to paydown my mortgage.
The Diplomats' August Side Hustle Report
Our third installment of the Dividend Diplomats' Side Hustle Report. Each month, the two of us publish a report showing how much income we made from our various "side hustles." We talk all the time about how every dollar counts and can make a lasting impact on our journey towards financial freedom. Producing these reports helps hold us accountable and motivates us to keep increasing the number. Nothing excites us more than reading about another blogger that is pushing themselves to the limit, so hopefully our August Side Hustle Report can help us pay that motivation forward.

FC Dallas slumps to Open Cup loss to Charlotte
Published 5/30/2012 6:01:52 AM by staff from dallas
Goodness gracious. The downward spiral continues. It was the perfect opportunity to get a bit of confidence for FC Dallas as they hosted a lower league side in a US Open Cup. Instead it turned into an embarrassing loss.
The Charlotte Eagles of the USL came into Frisco and upset FC Dallas 2-0 on Tuesday evening. Despite controlling the run of play all evening FC Dallas could not find the net as Charlotte keeper
Clinton Irwin
made 10 saves in the match.
On the other end, the Eagles only managed two shots the entire not on frame, but both got past Dallas keeper Chris Seitz. Charlotte's Nate Thornton sent in a cross to the right side of the box in the 43rd minute for
Darryl Roberts
, who headed the ball to the far left side of the net past a diving Dallas 'keeper Chris Seitz. Thornton then shut the door in the fourth minute of extra time to seal the deal.
Things only get worse for FC Dallas as they take to the road for a match in Houston. FCD is 0-6-1 on the road this year.

We are all used to "snacking," but what about snacking while intermittent fasting? Many of us were raised on snacking, urged on by the makers of pretzels, potato chips, crackers, jerky, spiced nuts, and soda pop. We've been encouraged to eat "six little meals a day" — meals looking very snack-like.
Ought we be snacking if we are serious about intermittent fasting for weight loss?
If the reason that intermittent fasting works so well for weight loss for many of us is because we are reducing the number of times during the day that we spike our blood sugar with food, then we want to keep doing less blood sugar spiking, not more.
Snacks spike our blood sugar even if they are little, low carb snacks. A big donut and soda pop will spike your blood sugar more than a jerky strip, but both will spike your blood sugar.
Work hard on breaking the snack habit.
Night time snacks are especially bad, since we end up sleeping with our stomach full. Night time snack habits are also some of the most difficult to break. Fight like heck to break the night time habit. I did so for alcohol and realize how hard it is. I describe in the Facebook video below how I broke the night time alcohol habit. You can use the same approach for a snack habit. It's worth it!
Explore more information on this website, including whether you should be following a keto diet for weight loss, which includes my own way of thinking about going low carb and losing weight aggressively.

I keep hearing that some of the schools are going to fail soon. Is that really true?
t is true and the systems within our buildings are failing regularly. Corrosion in water and steam lines present a significant disruption to school activities and unexpected costs. Mold, failing plumbing and heating systems, and the inability to meet current safety and service standards add to the problems and make two of the buildings prohibitively expensive to repair.

More storefront areas from Gratiot Avenue.
For people outside this region, "Gratiot" is obviously of French origin – but is pronounced in this area as "GRAH-shit", with a 'short' a sound.
Not sure how it is supposed to be pronounced in its original context.
2 Responses to Gratiot Views
I am currently trying to find pictures of the houses along James Court off of Gratiot- that I know, it is a row of houses along a section of pedestrian street. My grandmother grew up in one of the houses on the court. She says that there was a movie theatre right near her back yard. I have not been able to find good pictures of the area and have not been able to get to the area to take any myself. Have you been to that section of Gratiot? If so, do you happen to have any photographs of it?
Thank you.
It SHOULD be pronounced GRAH-SHEE-O. The T is silent but we all know that French pronunciation is not a Michigander's strong suit :)

Former cop detained at Fagaitua Substation — tests positive for meth
Pago Pago, AMERICAN SAMOA — A former DPS police officer who has been detained at the Fagaitua Police Substation (FPS) for over 2 months to await sentencing after pleading guilty to unlawful possession of a controlled substance, to wit; methamphetamine and stealing, both felonies, was remanded to the Territorial Correction Facility (TCF) last week, after suspicions that he allegedly used meth while detained at the East Substation surfaced.
Sources told Samoa News that Olataga Wilson, one of four defendants, all former police officers in the Juvenile Detention Center (JDC) was returned to the TCF last Thursday.
A prison guard who asked to remain anonymous confirmed to Samoa News last week that Wilson was transported back to TCF last Thursday. The guard did not offer any additional details as to why Wilson is now back to TCF.
A reliable source told Samoa News that Wilson was transferred to the FPS for safety reasons, and he was to remain there until further notice from DPS.
While at FPS, according to the source, since there is no cell at the FPS, Wilson used the front office to sleep and to stay with the police officer who was assigned to guard him.
"Most of the time during day and night, Wilson used the computer inside the office for personal use. If he felt tired he would just lay down on his bed beside the table where the computer is and he would sleep. If he was hungry, he went to the kitchen and cooked his food, he then came back to the front, ate his food and used the computer again," the reliable source told Samoa News.
Due to the shortage of manpower, only two police officers are assigned to work each shift at the FPS, the source claims. However, one officer has to stay at the FPS to guard Wilson while the other officer has to work from the Fagatogo Central Police Station to serve all calls from the Eastside whenever police assistance is required.
According to the source, the Wilson matter was reported to a police supervisor when a female officer who was assigned to work at the FPS for the night shift on Sunday, July 29, 2018 allegedly noticed Wilson smoking something outside of the office in the parking lot, after the officer went outside looking for Wilson after the inmate had been gone from the office for almost an hour.
The source said, as soon as Wilson saw the female officer, he immediately stopped what he was doing and allegedly put something inside his pants pocket.
The female officer then approached Wilson and asked him what he was doing. Allegedly, out of anger, Wilson told her that she had no business bothering him or checking on what he was doing and said he was not doing anything illegal.
Out of fear for her safety, the source said — and the fact that Wilson is much bigger than she — the female officer decided not to pat down Wilson for any drugs or paraphernalia in his possession, but called her supervisor and members of the DPS Vice & Narcotics Units for assistance.
The female officer also allegedly reported that during her night shift, Wilson did not sleep the whole night, instead he used the computer the whole night and continued on during the day when a new police officer then came in for the morning shift.
Members of the Vice & Narcotics Units notified the Probation Officer regarding the alleged involvement of Wilson with meth, the source told Samoa News, and a representative from the court went over to the FPS last Thursday and approached Wilson to perform a drug test.
It's then Wilson allegedly confessed and admitted to the court representative that he used methamphetamine while detained at the FPS. Something that was allegedly confirmed by his urinalysis test results, which tested positive for methamphetamine.
Wilson was then transferred back to the TCF to a wait the date of his sentencing, according to the source.
Wilson, who pled guilty to unlawful possession of methamphetamine and stealing, both felonies has admitted that while working as a police officer at the JDC, he smoked meth with his co-defendant, former police officer Okesene Alo inside the JDC kitchen and also inside the office. Furthermore, he also admitted that he stole food front the facility.
Co-defendant Alo was found guilty during his June jury trial on 7 criminal counts, while the 4 other counts were dismissed. He is to appear in High Court on Sept. 28, 2018 for sentencing.
Another co-defendant Letuli has agreed to plead guilty under a plea agreement with the government, to one count of unlawful possession of a controlled substance, to wit; methamphetamine, in exchange to the government dismissing 7 other counts — of which 2 were misdemeanors and the other 5 are class D felonies.

If you love Classic Japanese Monsters and Monster Battles then you are in for a world of chaotic wonder.
As someone who watched the original 1964 "Mothra vs Godzilla" and "Ghidorah the Three Headed Monster," the new "Godzilla King of the Monsters" is a MAJOR recommendation. (Be warned there will be some spoilers in this review.)
My top three Kaiju (Japanese for Strange Beast or in English layman's terms Giant Japanese Monsters) are King Ghidorah, Mothra and the titular Godzilla. As someone who really likes the aforementioned monsters, Legendary Pictures did a brilliant job portraying these creatures, not only in sound and creature design by making iconic the cries/roars sound like they came from an actual beast and giving the Kaiju designs a more realistic look but also referencing the original designs from their debut films. However where they really shined was in the music, in the characterizations and in the thematic elements.
King Ghidorah is a powerful and menacing beast and considered to be a creature that meant the destruction of civilization. Being not of this world, just as he was in his debut film "Ghidorah the Three Headed Monster" where he had come as a meteorite to do unto earth what he had done to the Venusian civilization, although here it was stated through exposition that he was an extraterrestrial invasive species instead of being shown he was. Another thing I noticed about him is in the aforementioned film his three heads possessed only linear thought. However in "Godzilla King of the Monsters" while his heads are unified as an apex predator they each have a subtle unique personality, especially with one of the head's liking to proverbially and literally play with its food with the central head acting the one in charge. Adding to his symbolism as a Devil-like destroyer figure is not only in the iconic imagery of him rising out of a volcano with golden wings outstretched before a red darkening sky before a cross in the foreground, but also in his musical theme. In King Ghidorah's theme they had Japanese Buddhist Heart Sutra (prayer) chants within the theme (a Catholic/Christian equivalent would be the Kyrie Eleison) in which the sutra/prayer is requesting mercy from the devine, in a sense a request of salvation to the divine as who wouldn't call on the Divine in the face of absolute evil, considering the destroyer King Ghidorah was called in promotional material for the film "the Devil {who} has three heads" which adds more to his symbolism as a Judeo-Christian Devil-like figure. To quote from the Book of Revelation: "They have a King over them, the angel of the Abyss. A star fallen from Heaven to Earth, he opened the shaft of the bottomless pit, and from the shaft rose smoke like that of a great furnace, and the sun and the air were darkened."
My favorite, Mothra, is beautifully portrayed as a benevolent yet powerful guardian. In her debut film in 1961 she was a goddess attempting to rescue her fairy priestesses and was the guardian of Infant Island. This is showcased in "Godzilla King of the Monsters" when faced with hostile humans in her larval state she doesn't physically harm them. Rather she immobilizes them and when she completes her metamorphosis, she appears before the humans making them realize their one chance of combating Ghidorah is before them, giving them hope. This is also portrayed in her musical theme too. The composer, Bear McCreary (who also composed the music for God of War 4), didn't have to do this but he utilized a Chinese style orchestration combined with tribal drums to the original theme of Mothra from 1961. In the original film the song is sung by her priestesses to summon her which gave them hope of rescue whereas in "Godzilla King of the Monsters" her song (although without lyrics the tune is exactly the same) is played when she awakens from her cocoon in an iconic reveal of her wings from a waterfall, giving humanity hope. (Personal note I did start slightly tearing up when I heard her song in this moment.) In my opinion on this portrayal, the moth goddess has earned her place as the Queen of the Monsters.
As for the big beast himself the titular character Godzilla is amazingly portrayed. As a callback to his first appearance in 1954, he was awakened due to nuclear testing and is powered by nuclear energy. He is neither good or evil like in previous 1950-1960's films. His original creation was in response to nuclear weaponry as the Japanese were the first and only country to suffer from the effects of the atomic blast. Like the Bhagaved Gita used by J. Robert Oppenheimer: "Now I have become Death, the Destroyer of Worlds," Godzilla has caused damage to humans (especially with the main human characters and the real villain of the film) but he is willing to work alongside them to combat the greatest threat to his world; the extraterrestrial golden dragon of destruction King Ghidorah. The foreshadowing of their battle was found in the Legendary film "Kong: Skull Island" in the ending montage that showcased Godzilla's seeming eternal battle with the golden beast and this film pays off in not only near deaths and defeats against his nemesis, the false King, but Godzilla proves himself to be the true King of the Monsters as he obliterates the usurper. Not only did they make a realistic portrayal of his classical roar but they also created an amazing orchestral version (complete with a regal Babylonian chanting when arriving to his "temple" under the sea to revitalize him along with the iconic Japanese chant of "Gojira") of his original theme from 1954. In my opinion, Godzilla was meant to be portrayed as a god-like King who can be both malevolent and benevolent and in the film that bears his name and title… this was an amazing portrayal of such an iconic character.
I could go on a long while about what callbacks the film has made. However I will limit myself to mentioning how the film made respectable nods to the Japanese for giving us memorable beloved monsters along with giving an end credit memorial to the actors who played the original Godzilla at the end of the film.
There were however some minor complaints on my end. The story is indeed a thin story; however, the visuals and characterization of the monsters make up for that in my opinion. It's a common complaint I myself have made about the monster films from the 1950's-1960's era. Another complaint would be a scene where a prized piece of tech is left out with no security especially when its shown the character who stole it was questioning the individuals who co-opted the tech. Along with that the individual who was built up to be the major human antagonist, Alan Jonah, barely had any screen time and was shown to be a bit of a stereotypical villain. But I did enjoy how he was acted as he was played by Charles Dance who played Tywin Lannister in Game of Thrones. He has a Christopher Lee level charm to him.
As for the other human characters, my favorites had to be Doctor Ishiro Serizawa by Ken Watanabe who's character arc comes to a completion from the 2014 film "Godzilla" in a wonderful way. Doctor Chen and Doctor Ling-Chen played by Ziyi Zhang (both of whom played the Chairman and Sayuri respectively in the film Memoirs of a Geisha) act as spiritual stands in for Mothra's priestesses from the original 1961 Mothra film as they're twins from Infant Island who focus on the mythology behind the Titans and one of them is present upon Mothra's awakening. Finally there's Doctor Mark Russell (played by Kyle Chandler who played Bruce Baxter in the 2005 edition of King Kong) who goes through the character arc of a man who hates Godzilla after the death of his son in San Francisco in 2014 to realizing if the world is to be saved from King Ghidorah, he has to put aside his hatred of Godzilla to save the world from a greater threat; so not only does he have to face his demons (in the form of Godzilla) but also make peace with them. I liked how these characters were handled and portrayed in the film and I like the respectable self sacrifice one character made for Godzilla.
Along with the human characters we get to see some philosophical questions raised by the film: can humanity co-exist with the Titans? Each faction in the film portrays a different answer to this question. With Jonah's forces and the actual villain (who were pointed out to be in the wrong, along with committing horrible acts towards humanity and pointed out to be more of a monster than the other Titans), they believe humanity is a "disease to be eradicated" from the planet and humans must be destroyed for the sake of the planet and have the Titans become once again the true owners of the globe. (Personal note: as a Conservative I couldn't help but be reminded of the extremist Left as the villain's ideology is along the lines of the Far Left's in the belief that all white people are inherently racist and must die out because of so called "inherent oppressors." In my opinion this suicidal ideology is along the lines of Jonah's eco-terrorist group and is just as dangerous as the aforementioned belief and I'm glad the film actually called out this line of thinking as not only dangerous but monstrous.) Then there's the US government who believe if human life is to be protected the Titans must be wiped out for the sake of humanity's protection and this extremism ends up almost destroying the world in the form of the iconic Oxygen Destroyer a weapon more dangerous than a plutonium based atomic bomb. Finally there's the middle ground which is presented by Monarch who believe in coexistence with the Titans and is embodied by Doctor Serizawa in his character arc, idealized by Doctor Chen (who has generationally worked with Monarch researching the Titans) and realized by Doctor Russell.
If I were to rate the film I would give this film four stars out of five. If you are a fan of classic Japanese Monster films and want to see epic fights between iconic Kaiju you are in for a chaotic world of wonder. If you're there for the story it is as thin as previous Japanese monster films. Verdict: this singing vampire diva gives this film two thumbs way up and a standing ovation just for the music alone.
I'm Diva Nightrose-Goldsmith and I'm the resident singing vampire who loves all things anime, manga and pop culture. I was born to a family of fantasy and science fiction nerds and the granddaughter of a WWII veteran that hails from the Southern United States. Due to this background I'm a politically incorrect conservative Lutheran who joined Red Pill Religion to not only showcase how nerd culture belongs to no political ideology but also how nerd culture can be enjoyed by everyone, including Christians.

Brisbane Water Police District is set to gain two new specialist officers as part of the NSW Government's $583m investment in the NSW Police Force.
Parliamentary Secretary for the Central Coast, Scot MacDonald, and Member for Terrigal, Adam Crouch, welcomed the NSW Government's announcement that all 58 area commands across the state will gain a Child Protection Officer and an Elder Abuse Prevention Officer. "The NSW Government has already delivered more than 1,000 new police since we were elected, and these new recruits will put more police where they are needed," MacDonald said.
"NSW has some of the lowest crime rates in 20 years, and with this boost to police numbers, our men and women in blue will be able to meet future crime challenges head on," he said. Crouch said the NSW Police Force is at record authorised strength levels. "There have been continuous year-on-year increases in police positions since 2011, and this new allocation builds on our strong record, particularly in the Brisbane Water Police District," he said. NSW Premier, Gladys Berejiklian, said the safety and security of NSW communities is the government's highest priority. Minister for Police, Troy Grant, said protecting some of the most vulnerable members of our community, our children and the elderly, is undoubtedly one of the most important roles that NSW Police perform.

As the year 2009 comes to a close, I find myself again making resolutions for the new year… only this year, I've got questions before I make them. While I don't ask these questions of anyone in particular, my self-discovery reading has given them rise. Here goes:
1. If what we think and believe determines where we are in life, why am I not financially abundant? I purposefully set in my mind the concept of ultimate prosperity during 2009, and along the lines of "The Secret" envisioned it, breathed it, wished it, felt it, and truly anticipated its manifestation for months. (Thankfully I did not spend the money before I had it in hand). While I realize that proponents and writers of "The Secret" say that you cannot set the timeframe in which the universe will deliver to your thoughts, I'm wondering how much longer I need to wait.
2. Can resolutions be made for things that are outside our control or which depend on the behavior of others? For example, if my resolution is to earn more money or attract love into my life in 2010 – can I truly deliver on the resolution when the result depends on the involvement of other(s) outside of myself alone? Should we abandon resolutions if we cannot achieve them on our own?
3. What is reasonable to set as an achievable resolution? I resolve every year to lose 20 pounds and yet even when I exercise, diet, refrain from fast foods, I seem to remain at the same weight or even gain a couple of pounds. Perhaps this is because I don't NEED to lose weight (I just want to) and therefore, even with focus, doing the right things, and commitment, sometimes resolutions fail. Should I alter my resolution or simply stop eating all together?
4. Is it better to make lots of resolutions so that we can enjoy some success, or make a couple of big ones that really matter? There is a mixed opinion on the internet about this. Some "experts" purport to making lots of realistic resolutions so that at least some level of success is attained, which in turn will inspire further success. Other "experts" say that this is folly and frivolous – it is better to concentrate on those issues that will cause you to achieve more success in one aspect of your life.
Meanwhile, I've decided that instead of making resolutions, maybe I'll do something different at year's end. Based on the lunar eclipse on Dec 31, 2009, it's a good time to make a list of all that I want to rid my life of (anything beginning with an Ex!), excess debt, excess weight, excess negativity, X anything! AND, based on the solar eclipse coming on Jan 21, 2010 I'll make a similar list of everything I want to attract into my life in 2010. That way, I'll eliminate the negative influences from my life as the year comes to a close, and attract positive influences in once the year is underway. Or at least that seems to skirt the questions I've got about resolutions, and replace the old ways of making resolutions with something new. And after all, something new and positive should be what the new year is really all about anyways!!!
Happy new year to you and yours! May 2010 be YOUR year to shine, thrive, be healthy, safe, and prosperous!

2-014 To Bernard M. Baruch, July 20, 1939
To Bernard M. Baruch1
July 20, 1939 [Washington, D.C.]
My dear Mr. Baruch:
I have just this moment read your letter of July 19th,2 and learned for the first time of your misfortune in having to undergo a mastoid operation. My full sympathy goes to you, and I am delighted to judge from your letter that you have fully recovered.
I have been concerned about General Pershing's health in France, as he had—most confidentially—several attacks. He has endeavored to minimize this, and emphatically denies them. I suppose they are inevitable under the circumstances, but it worries me to have him off in France even though he seems to be particularly happy there the pleasanter period of the year.
I am well aware of your important part in the stirring up of the national conscience to our serious situation last year, and the tremendous effect it had on public opinion. I also recall the views you expressed on South America in previous years, and your brief comment to me in my office here in the War Department not so long ago. I do hope I may have an opportunity to talk things over with you personally, and if I am in New York I will try to make an appointment with you in advance, and if you are in Washington I hope you will lunch with me.
I have an invitation to shoot ducks at the mouth of the Mississippi. It should be "to shoot at ducks", but it recalls a very amusing expedition with you.
With warm regards, and thanks for your letter
Faithfully yours,
Document Copy Text Source: George C. Marshall Papers, Pentagon Office Collection, Selected Materials, George C. Marshall Research Library, Lexington, Virginia.
Document Format: Typed letter.
1. As General Pershing's aide, Marshall had become acquainted with Baruch, a politically influential financier and the former chairman (March-December 1918) of the War Industries Board. (See Papers of George Catlett Marshall, #1-315 [1: 385].)
2. Baruch's letter mentioned his operation and that General Pershing had visited him in the hospital prior to his departure for France. "As you are aware, or can find out upon inquiry," Baruch wrote, "I did as much as anybody to stir up the action which resulted in the expenditures which are giving the Army a part of what they need. I know we have not yet a well balanced program and as soon as I get on my feet, I am going to go after it again. I was in hopes we would have a neutrality legislation that would permit the manufacture of airplanes and the export thereof during war, because I wanted to see a development in this country that our orders alone would not permit. Also, I wanted the United States to take first place again in quality and quantity. I do not know whether you have seen expressions of my views on the South American situation, and what I considered adequate preparedness. These were expressed back in 1936 and 1937. Always remember that the Army, and you particularly, have a friend in me if I can be of any use." (Baruch to Marshall, July 19, 1939, GCMRL/G. C. Marshall Papers [Pentagon Office, Selected].)

Theresa May said yesterday that she wants to rewrite the Human Rights Act.
The Human Rights Act and the European Commission on Human Rights are nothing to do with the EU (however much the Daily Mail would like you to think they are). The ECHR was set up by Winston Churchill to ensure that Hitler's Germany could never happen again. For the UK to abandon what we fought so hard for is unthinkable and would send the wrong message to places like Syria and North Korea.
She's abandoning Margaret Thatcher's Single Market, now she wants to abandon Winston Churchill's Human Rights.
A vote for her is a vote for intolerance and against internationalism.

The Jewelry Box was completed as a project using a frame and rail insert top. This box was a test to learn how to grove small thin parts for boxes. This is the second box I have recently completed using joinery where panels are inserted in a frame( I will post the other box in the near future). This box came out well but created problems when it came time to attach the hinge to the thin lid. To keep the screws from going through the top panel I had to shorten their length. Also had a similar issue with the lid stop (thinness) . A chain was my only option unless someone has a better idea.
The box is made of Granadillo and maple and finished with satin poly. The front panel decoration was cut with a CNC prior to assembly. The maple top came out OK, there are a number of dark imperfections (see photos) in the wood which to me detract from the overall finish, but I did not see them until the panel was cut and sanded. The box and the tray are lined with black felt. Thanks for looking.
