Lisle collector preserves history in postcards
Did you receive any postcards in the mail this summer?
It seems the emergence of new technologies jeopardizes the amiable picture postcard sent to friends and family from vacation destinations. As with a challenge from any new medium, the future potential of postcards is still to be determined, including its use in marketing.
"It is sad that what was once recorded for us to read and enjoy even 100 years later is being lost in the airwaves in current times," said Susan Brown Nicholson, a recognized authority on antique postcards.
The longtime Lisle resident questions whether the younger generation will miss out on learning about ancestors without the bits of casual information garnered from the backside of postcards.
Long before texting and social media updates limited the space available to send a message, postcards restricted communication to half the backside of a 3.5-by-5.5-inch or 4-by-6-inch postcard. The small space allowed for a short, snappy greeting and in the process recorded a bit of family history.
The less people use postcards, the more interest rises in collecting, a hobby called deltiology. Nicholson said the study and collecting of postcards is extremely popular today.
"The major purchase venues are websites and auction sites online such as bidStart and eBay with more than one million cards each online every day," Nicholson said.
Postcards are part of the collectible category of ephemera, which means anything made of paper that is expected to be short-lived. They captured the interests of recipients and collectors from the start.
Nicholson wrote "The Encyclopedia of Antique Postcards" with illustrations and price guide as a resource to collectors. She also writes about antique postcards for many publications including the Barr's Postcard News and The Postcard Collector.
The Lake County Discovery Museum in Wauconda has the country's only postcard museum. Its 365,000 Curt-Teich Postcard Archives has a significant collection of Route 66 images. Access online is at lcfpd.org.
"The most popular postcards to collect now are real photographic postcards from small-town America and popular holidays like Halloween," Nicholson said.
Nicholson's collection of old postcards has some of her hometown, Lisle. Her images include Reidy's General Store, Lisle Creamery and the Lisle Depot train station with its large protective eves to help shelter riders from inclement weather.
The postcards showing Benedictine Hall and the St. Joan of Arc Church interior preserve memories since those buildings met with a wrecking ball. The St. Joseph's Bohemian Orphanage ended in 1956, but the building lives on as the oldest structure on the Benet Academy high school campus in Lisle.
The old postcards from the Morton Arboretum in Lisle are not as significantly different from the newest stylish collection currently for sale in its gift shop because plants and trees have a universality about them that transcends time. It is when people or buildings are included that a postcard offers a glimpse of history.
Postcards became popular at the beginning of the 20th century and were collected right from the start. They offered a wide diversity at a reasonable cost.
In the early 1900s, Eastman Kodak introduced a Folding Pocket Kodak designed so the general public could use its postcard-size film to take photographs and have them printed on postcard backs. Real Photo postcards, such as the Lisle street scenes, enabled people to make a postcard of any picture they took.
At first, postcards could have only writing in the front and the address and stamp on the back. After 1907, postcards had an image on the front with a divided back, as we have today. Fold-out postcards, popular in the 1950s, were a series of postcards attached into a strip.
In the heyday of postcards, people could purchase them in dime stores, drugstores and newsstands. Small specialty shops that sold only postcards were popular at tourist attractions. Today it is hard to even find postcards outside vacation destinations.
"Postcards have always been an advertising tool and still are today," Nicholson said. "The 1907 versions are not considered 'junk mail' but collectibles."
Even artist-illustrator Norman Rockwell did a postcard for the Upjohn Co. in Michigan.
Local Realtors used the postcard medium to showcase a house for sale on the photo front and the details of the house as the postcard's message. Today, real estate agents still use postcards to keep their name in front of potential customers.
Nicholson said free rack cards, available in restaurants and motels in the last century, record the kinds of products we used and places we frequented. Postcards featuring political and social causes could reach the general public many times bearing just a penny stamp.
Subject matter, condition, desirability and demand all determine a postcard's value.
Nicholson started collecting postcards when she bought some while collecting antiques. She suggests that new collectors ask questions and buy just what they like.
"If the value goes up, good for you," Nicholson said. "If not, you still like it."

Warriors to unveil plans to move to San Francisco
SAN FRANCISCO -- The Golden State Warriors are ready to announce what many have long suspected: The franchise wants to move back to San Francisco.
The NBA team, Commissioner David Stern and San Francisco Mayor Ed Lee scheduled a news conference at 10 a.m. local time Tuesday to announce the decision to leave Oakland. The earliest the team could move would be 2017, when it can escape its lease at Oracle Arena.
The Warriors will unveil plans to build an arena at Piers 30-32. The waterfront site near the San Francisco-Oakland Bay Bridge -- one of the most beautiful views in one of the world's most beautiful cities -- is just blocks from the Giants' ballpark and the downtown financial district.
The announcement comes as no surprise to Bay Area fans.
Joe Lacob and Peter Guber have been working to return the team to the City by the Bay since buying the Warriors for a league-record $450 million in 2010. The Warriors played in San Francisco from 1962 to 1971 after moving from Philadelphia.
Lee sent a letter to the owners this month saying the city would work with Warriors executives to bring the team to San Francisco in time for the 2017-18 season. The note, signed by all 11 city supervisors and numerous business and labor leaders, floated the possibility of building a waterfront arena. It was sent a few days after Lee met with new Guber in Los Angeles.
Oakland Mayor Jean Quan responded last week by sending the team her own letter. Quan says Oakland is committed to keeping the Warriors in the East Bay.
That now seems like a lost cause.
Of course, building anything in San Francisco is never easy.
Overcoming the environmental concerns on the shoreline, the addition of a high-rise structure on the pier -- not to mention the adjacent condominiums and businesses that could fight to keep their Bay Bridge views -- and political wrangling in the politically charged city are among many obstacles for the project. The team was expected to release details of the financing plan at the news conference.
While the Warriors upgraded parts of Oracle Arena and remodeled its downtown Oakland offices and practice facility before last season, the owners have made no secret of their intentions.
All of Golden State's important news conferences in the last two years -- when Lacob and Guber bought the team, coach Mark Jackson's hiring and executive board member Jerry West's signing, to name a few -- have been held in San Francisco.
The Warriors are counting on the 16-mile drive between the team's Oakland arena and the waterfront site in San Francisco to make all the difference.
Team executives believe more corporate sponsorship and national notoriety will come in San Francisco and give the franchise the ability to land marquee free agents. Most teams that play at Golden State already stay and practice in San Francisco.
One thing that hasn't been a problem are the fans.
Despite only one playoff appearance since 1994, the basketball-booming Bay Area has supported the Warriors surprisingly well. The team ranked 10th in attendance this past season, averaging 18,857.
The move is still sure to upset some in Oakland, the center of the area's basketball roots. Many NBA players past and present -- Bill Russell, Gary Payton and Jason Kidd, among scores of others -- were raised in Oakland. The NFL's Oakland Raiders and baseball's Oakland Athletics, which share a stadium next to Oracle Arena, are also looking for new facilities.

Wasn't this supposed to be the year of the girls on "American Idol"?
So far, not so much. Didi Benami became the third in a row voted off, finishing in 10th place. Unlike Lacey Brown and Paige Miles, who went before her, she'll get to sing in the "Idol" summer tour, and if she can channel the vocals she brought to her version of "Rhiannon" on Wednesday, we may not have heard the last of her.
Sadly, however, Tuesday's theme was R&B and soul rather than Fleetwood Mac songs, and she hadn't done enough to justify using the judges' save on her. You could tell Simon Cowell and company were thinking, "Why, why, WHY couldn't you have done this last night and allowed us to send Tim Urban home instead?" But she didn't, so out she goes. Maybe her voice is just made for a recording studio, and not a competition like this one.
U.S. & World
The day's top national and international news.
Speaking of Tim, here's what I don't get: For me, the best part of him is his attitude. His voice is nothing special, his stage presence needs work and he apparently makes his song choices by throwing darts at the iTunes catalog, but I love that he stands up there every week and doesn't let the withering criticism wipe the smile off his face.
The judges don't get that, and it is annoying them more and more every week that he does not react to their caustic commentary with the appropriate combination of sorrow and angst, but in this case he is right and they are wrong. As he told Kara on Wednesday, he gets to sing onstage in front of millions of people every week, and he chooses to enjoy every moment. Isn't that what he is supposed to do?
There are plenty of other things to criticize him for without ripping on the one thing everybody likes. Quit worrying about his smile already.
The third member of the bottom three was Katie Stevens. Though she once again was the first member of the unlucky trip sent back to safety, it means she's the early favorite to go home next week given Tim's apparent invulnerability.
Or Michael Lynche could be the one in danger. Not because of his singing, but because he committed two cardinal sins on Wednesday.
First, he wore a little hair extension to imitate Siobhan Magnus, which just looked ridiculous. Then, he picked up Ryan Seacrest as though he were about to body-slam the host, and a scared Ryan is a Ryan who could easily do something such as cut the phone lines for Big Mike's 1-888 number and get him sent home before Ryan becomes the victim of another wrestling hold.
Also, Justin Bieber was in the audience, which won't make Conan O'Brien very happy. The former "Tonight Show" host, whose twitter feed looks to provoke a feud with the teenager — and by the way, has someone checked to see if Bieber's a clone, and if not how he's in so many places at once? — isn't even allowed to spell the word "Fox" per his separation agreement, much less do anything like appear in the audience of the rival network's biggest hit. How is he going to combat this one?
This week's mentor, Usher, performed live, as did Diddy and Ruben Studdard. For those of you nostalgic for the glory days of previous seasons, Ruben announced that he's touring with season two rival and runner-up, Clay Aiken, and also noted that he's now a vegan. That's bad news for the Chick-fil-A's on the tour route.
Ruben's act took the place of the group sing, the second time in three weeks that the number has been curtailed by a live performance by a former winner (as David Cook took the stage two weeks ago). Idol producers, if that's what it takes to get rid of the group sing, please don't limit yourselves to former winners. Scott Savol, Jon Peter Lewis, Amanda Overmyer … heck, bring back William Hung for all I care. Just give me something to watch besides the group sing.
Next week: The Lennon McCarthy catalog. Sadly, it's all too easy to imagine no Didi Benami taking the stage.

Financial Aid / Re: Unsubsidized Stafford Loan - pay interest while in school?« on: July 14, 2007, 06:54:03 PM »
qmmm is correct. For example, my lender allowed sends me a notice (not really a bill) showing the accrued interest every 3 months even though I opted NOT to pay interest while in school. I can pay it or choose not to. Essentially, any payments I make while in law school is put towards any interest I've accrued. However, I don't have to send them a dime since I opted not to pay interests.
of course, i can't say this is the same with ALL lenders. My lender is MEFA.
of course, i can't say this is the same with ALL lenders. My lender is MEFA.
I could be wrong, but you're also not losing anything by saying yes to paying interest payments while in school. It gives you the option to, but you are not under obligation to do so. So if you change your mind and don't pay or don't pay for a particular month, it has no effect on you than if you had said no from the get-go.
I'm not sure that you can claim that you are 'not under obligation' to make the interest payments. I suspect that this is strongly dependent on the particular lender and you may be obligated to pay or suffer some sort of penalty. I further suspect that for private loans, especially those that tie your interest rate into your repayment plan, you would be obligated to pay on time.
Besides, if you say that you won't be making interest payments while in school, you certainly are 'not under obligation' to pay. However, the lender will always accept payment. In fact, most loan agreements that I have investigated contain a clause that if you return part of a loan payout within 120 days from the time of issuance, it will be as if you had never taken out the money in the first place. That is effectively a 4 month interest free loan for the portion returned.

When Cpl. Heather Redenius asked to attend Mountain Leaders Course, she didn�t know she would make history by completing it.
When Cpl. Heather Redenius asked to attend Mountain Leaders Course, she didn�t know she would make history by completing it.
The three-week course in the mountains of Bridgeport, Calif., is among the most physically demanding Marine Corps schools.
It has a 50-percent attrition rate, Redenius said.
She is the first woman to graduate from Mountain Leaders Course.
She quickly noticed she was the only woman in the class, but that gave her motivation, she said.
Redenius said she and 55 other students learned to rappel, climb, lower wounded Marines from cliffs, tie knots and set a bridge made of one rope at the �fast-paced� school.
�You get very fatigued very quickly both mentally and physically,� said Redenius, of 8th Engineer Support Battalion. �If you don�t stay on top of what they�re teaching you, there�s no way you will pass.�
Redenius, 23, of Janesville, Wis. said learning new skills daily made the challenges more bearable.
�I hope I�m paving the way for other females to follow in my footsteps and they learn that anything is possible if you put your mind to it,� Redenius said.
For Redenius, the course was a personal challenge.
�I looked at it as just one more course that I was given the opportunity to succeed and excel in,� she said.
Redenius said she sensed no animosity from her peers and never felt out of place.
�At the very end a lot of them told me they were glad I came and that I blew them away with my performance,� she said.
First Sgt. Monroe Boykin, 39, of Havelock, who has known Redenius since June 2011 while serving as her company first sergeant, said her success was no surprise.
He recalled seeing her performance during improvised explosive device training.
�All I saw was constant work being done,� Boykin said. �When I met her I was blown away by her initiative and drive to accomplish the mission.�
Throughout her training, Redenius was at �full speed,� Boykin said.
�She has a genuine maturity,� Boykin said. �She is willing to be led and is willing to lead. She has a drive to learn and be taught.�
Gender is a big topic in the Corps, Boykin said, but it�s not one that matters.
�It�s all about character,� Boykin said. �And she�s got it.�

It starts off very badly. I hear a man who is not committed to confident lying or confident truth-telling. He sounds like he's accessing his memories and filtering what we receive.
"Well, I could say that, you know, I have done some of those things. I have horsed around with kids, I... I have showered after workouts. I... I have hugged them and I have touched their leg... without intent of sexual contact, but, um... uh... so if you look at it that way... uh... there are things that... uh... wouldn't... uh... would be accurate."After hearing that, I wondered why exposed himself to an interview, why his lawyer let him do that. But as the interview continues, including contributions from the lawyer, I think he does in fact get himself into a better position that where he was before we heard that... assuming we listen to the entire 8+ minutes. He ends:
I don't know what I can say or what I could say that would make anybody feel any different now. I would just say that if somehow people could hang on until my attorney has a chance to fight, you know, for my innocence, that's about all I could ask right now. You know, obviously it's a huge challenge.

Styling the space, styling the viewing experience
Delivering incredible viewing experiences without disrupting the relaxation of a living space, the Slice of Living concept for home product design is transforming TVs by reimagining the aesthetic style of the entire living space.
Sampling the elements of living spaces
TV screens keep getting bigger. Living spaces need to be places of comfort and ease. The Slice of Living concept tries to find equilibrium in that context, seeking a harmonious balance between home products and living rooms. The idea behind this new home product design was simple: if you took all the elements, materials, and basic rules that have always been part of the "living room" ideal, sliced them into individual pieces, and reconstructed them in new ways, you might be able to find arrangements where the living room components and products struck more harmonious chords.
Running with that idea, designers started sampling virtually anything they could find in living spaces—from the silhouettes of chairs and other furniture, wall materials, and tiling patterns to textures like fabric and leather. Reconfiguring products with those samples and the tools of furniture and architecture helped the team carve out an innovative home product approach, one where items not only chimed with their surroundings but also helped style spaces in their own right.
A constant in our imagined conceptions of living space
When you imagine a comfortable living space, what do you see? Where does the sofa go? Where do books, vases, and other objects sit? What's the overall styling? And how does the TV, a standard part of the living space landscape, fit into the picture? We wanted to make sure that our home product design integrated seamlessly into the process of styling the ideal living room.
Tako, Chief Art Director
Resonating with the modern-living concept
For the 2017 BRAVIA™ models, we aimed for a light, comfortable look that would mesh with modern-living sensibilities. All the different design elements tie into that basic approach. The stand embodies a sleek, chair-like presence. The back panel evokes the textures of walls and fabric. And the bold combinations of smooth, warm materials add an exquisite stroke to the canvas of contemporary spatial design.
Breathtaking beauty all around
XE94/93 Series
The XE94/93 Series, a high-end fusion of stunning 4K HDR visuals and phenomenal interior design, features a back panel that makes the product look right at home wherever it stands in a living room environment. No longer playing a bit part in the overall look, the back panel features a striking geometric pattern—reminiscent of walls and tiles—that lets it shine on the aesthetic stage. The striking makeover goes deeper than just how the panel looks from a distance. The terminal panel cover lines and heat-releasing slits blend into the larger pattern, concealing any trace of the mechanical gadgetry that inhabits the back sides of most TVs. Rounding out the back panel's ensemble is the leather-like texture of the rear cover, which helps augment the visual presence.
With slim, chair-like legs on a thin slate to accentuate the lightness of the overall look and provide balanced support, the stand houses all cables, simplifying the leg area. The LCD panel features a simple structure with two slates in two different colours. While the black slate for the screen lets viewers immerse themselves in the experience against a discreet backdrop, the metallic hue of the back slate enhances the product's overall compatibility with the living room setting. The bottoms of the two slates are staggered vertically—and that's to create a space for the speakers to emit sound straight ahead, maximizing the quality of the audio.
As unassuming and subtle as a standard piece of furniture
XE90 Series
Featuring a line drawing-like thin bezel to eliminate structural distractions from the viewing experience, the XE90 Series features a design that takes minimal presence to a new level. The stand, which combines a low-profile slate and slender legs for support, underscores that light feel with gentle curves. On the back panel, meanwhile, the slimmed-down peripheral area finishes off the total form with a svelte grace.
A silhouette that fits into living spaces
XE85/XE80 Series
The XE85/XE80 Series features a silver line extending from the top of the panel and down the sides, lending a visual cue to the product's slim profile and separating the two simple slates that constitute the structure of the body. Striking a crisp silhouette, the stand also has a silver hairline on its top surface to deepen the sense of refined quality running through the design. The TV's silver tones are on the warmer side of the colour spectrum, allowing the product to complement wooden racks and flooring with an even more compelling aesthetic allure.
360-degree beauty makes a TV look great anywhere
With the BRAVIA Series, we wanted to go beyond just making the front of the product look great. Using a thin bezel helps hide the boundaries between the living space and the visual content, of course, but our focus was on making the back side as visually attractive as we could—that way, the TV could fit into interior settings in virtually any way. The design we came up with helps reimagine the TV as a multi-dimensional object that can go anywhere in the room, not just a one-dimensional surface to stick in the corner. That gives the user so much freedom when it comes to laying out the room.
Yokota, Art Director
The Slice of Living concept revisited a basic need—how people style their living spaces—and discovered the inspiration for new TVs. The amazing video and audio are just one part of the package. The spatial harmonics, giving the products the versatility to mesh with any interior, are what really perfect the experience.

Basically EXIF data is for photographers to troubleshoot their pictures..........it has no forensic relevance as it does not record amendments, and is not secure.
You can preserve some of the data such as the date, but you have to make a conscious effort to do this, and could never prove it.
It is nothing like the metadata that might be attached to a Microsoft Office document, for example.
The dates seem particularly irrelevant. I downloaded the sample and it reverted to my system date. When I make a copy (save as) it gives the new image the current system date. That implies that any form of editing that would require a save will change the image EXIF date.
This does sort of make sense as EXIF is not a forensics tool. It is to assist with photo editing and troubleshooting. Obviously, in that situation you are only interested in the last settings that apply to the image you are currently looking at, as they are the ones that have produced it.
Given that World + dog can alter the clocks in their cameras and computers I don't see much forensics value in that image date. Also remember that photographs can be scanned to produce a digital image, so the image date might bear absolutely no relationship to the actual photographic event.

A Premier Play on Diabetes Testing
- Order Reprints
- Print Article
Diabetes is a large and growing problem worldwide. There are an estimated 250 million diabetics living today, and the number could reach 380 million by 2025. In the U.S., about 13% of people over the age of 20 have diabetes, and nearly half of that group are thought to be undiagnosed.
Suffice it to say, for companies that make testing equipment to diagnose the disease, the opportunity is large. Trinity Biotech (ticker: TRIB), an Irish maker of medical-testing equipment, puts the market at $325 million for its diabetes-testing instrument, the Premier Hb9210, launched in Europe in May 2011 and in the U.S. last December. The device tests for levels of HbA1c in the blood to determine whether a patient is diabetic and how well the disease is controlled. HbA1c, also known as glycated hemoglobin, is a measure of a patient's average blood sugar over the past few months. Premier has some noted advantages over existing products, including speed, accuracy, and simple-to-use touch-screen technology. Trinity sells the Premier to hospitals and labs for about $25,000.
Backed by strong partners -- Thermo Fisher Scientific (TMO) in the U.S. and the Menarini Group in Europe -- Trinity shipped 83 Premiers in the first half of 2012 and expects to ship 200 by the end of the year. It also is launching a variety of point-of-care testing products, which will drive revenue in the next few years.
Although Trinity's shares have doubled in the past two years, the company isn't getting its due from investors. At a recent close of $12.51, the shares trade for less than 10 times 2013 earnings estimates of 92 cents a share, after backing out $3.45 a share in net cash from the company's balance sheet. According to Ross Taylor, a portfolio manager at Somerset Capital Advisors, which holds the stock, the shares deserve a considerably higher multiple, and could be worth 50% more.
Trinity was founded in 1992 in Bray, Ireland; its American depositary receipts have been listed on Nasdaq ever since. The company's tests and clinical instruments detect autoimmune, infectious, and sexually transmitted diseases, diabetes, and kidney and liver disorders. Trinity also sells the reagents necessary for testing. It is perhaps best known for point-of-care tests for AIDS , used in Africa and the U.S., and typically paid for by nongovernment organizations as well as public-health groups.
On the clinical-instrument side, the company makes tests for Lyme disease, syphilis, and legionella, as well as autoimmune disorders such as lupus and celiac disease. In 2011, clinical instrumentation accounted for 79% of revenue, with point-of-care testing chipping in the remainder.
This year, Trinity is expected to earn $17 million, or 81 cents a share, on revenue of $85 million. In 2013, earnings could rise 14% to 92 cents a share, on a 9% rise in sales, driven by the launch of Premier and other new products.
WHILE THE ROLLOUT of Premier is still in the early stages, the potential is large. Partner Thermo Fisher sells 1,000 diabetes instruments, and Menarini has 40% of the HbA1c measurement market in Europe. Given these companies' large customer bases, the growth of Premier could be swift. The sales growth of reagents also could be significant. Reagents carry profit margins of 60% or more.
Matt Dolan, who covers Trinity for Roth Capital Partners, notes in a report that the partners' installed base could drive $50 million in total instrument revenue over a multiyear replacement cycle. He sees an opportunity of more than $20 million in reagent sales. Trinity is expecting registration approval for Premier in China by year end, and in Brazil next year.
Trinity's new lineup of rapid-point-of- care tests could drive significant growth, as well. In the first quarter the company launched its new giardia test, and plans to follow with tests for cryptosporidium, syphilis, streptococcus, herpes, and other ailments by year end. Sales likely will ramp up next year.
Higher sales of Premier are showing up in results. In the June quarter, the company sold 52 Premiers, up from 31 in the first quarter. That helped drive an 8.5% sales increase year over year. HIV-test sales were also strong.
TRINITY HAS A SOLID BALANCE SHEET, with $73.6 million in cash and almost no debt. Free cash flow is robust, with $14 million expected this year. The cash, accumulated when the company sold its coagulation business in 2010, is being used for share repurchases and dividends. In June, the company initiated a 10% buyback program, and lifted the annual dividend payout by 50% to 15 cents a share. The current yield is 1.2%.
Management has also been making acquisitions. In March Trinity bought Fiomi Diagnostics, which is developing a point-of-care cardiac test to determine if a patient has had a heart attack. The company estimates that this is a $900 million market.
Taylor of Somerset thinks the Fiomi acquisition is a bit of a wild card for Trinity. The opportunity could be huge, he notes, if the product proves better than current offerings on the market. Because it is several years away, he values Fiomi as a call option at $1 a share.
Taylor looks for Trinity to earn 83 cents a share this year and $1 next year. At 14 times his 2013 earnings estimate, plus the cash and the $1 a share call option on Fiomi, he says the stock is worth $18.50.

: : : : : : : The context: Someone offers a couple help without charging them, and the husband says "she won't take our money, she won't steal our souls and she won't snatch the princess".
: : : : : : : My very thanks to you all
: : : : : : : Miri
: : : : : : I've never heard "snatch the princess." I was thinking it might be a fairy tale reference. But, then again, could it be a reference to a computer game? I'm not up on that and my kids are still asleep. Does anyone know?
: : : : : Mysterious to me, too. More context?
: : : : I googled the phrase and came up with several sites including a review of Gandalf the Sorcerer:
: : : : "Suppose you're a troll, or some other kind of fantasy monster, and you and your tribe decide to capture a princess from a nearby castle. Sure, it is heavily fortified, but you are muscular creatures, and together you will surely be able to force open the gate. So essentially it's a simple matter of reaching the castle, smashing the gate, taking the princess and getting back out...right?"
: : : : I think I'm entering a pop culture blackout period. (Did I just coin a phrase?) My children are near-grown and away from home and grandchildren are (I am assuming) in the not-so-near future. I don't have young people to keep me informed.
: : :
: : : Thank you all my friends for your answers, about the grandchildren I cann't wait that long, but seriously I can't give you more context because it's for a friend.
: : : So thank you again
: : : miri
: :
: : The above post sounds right - I have heard the expression before and it meant 'harmless' - I do think that princesses are kidnapped with indecent regularity in fiction and so the expression has it's roots in folk-lore. Psychologically, the phrase reveals an insecurity about the growing up of children and the worry of supervising adults. Not worrying about somebody wanting to 'Snatch the princess' is related to the princess's 'snatch' I suspect and so the person feels that they do not need to worry about sexual shennanigins.
: : fear of losing : Money (overt), Power (souls), Sexual control (princess)
: Thank you for the explanation, I'll pass it on.

There are lots of articles and essays of interest to modern Pagans out there, sometimes more than I can write about in-depth in any given week. So The Wild Hunt must unleash the hounds in order to round them all up.
- Jeet-Kei Leung, a researcher into "transformational festival culture," heads up a new web documentary series entitled "The Bloom" about these events. The first episode is due in February, but you can watch this 9-minute preview video now, featuring some familiar faces (and places) and plenty of Pagan-friendly themes. Quote: "Amidst the global crisis of a dysfunctional old paradigm, a new renaissance of human culture is underway […] THE BLOOM tells the vibrant, compelling and colorful story of a cultural renaissance in progress with the artistic sensibility and inspired creativity from which the culture has been birthed."
- Art dealer and museum curator Carine Fabius writes about Baron Samedi, Haiti's Lord of Death and Sexuality, and why the Haitian people love him. Quote: "I also reminded people that the Baron isn't just the Spirit of Death. As many of the numerous works featuring larger-than-life phalli imply, he is also the Spirit of Sexuality, the extension of which is life. The Baron is death in charge of life; he is a guide and source of comfort during difficult times, and the one who takes life away. He may be unpredictable but he is God's ultimate helper."
- Yesterday was a unique calendrical event: 12-12-12, which of course means that someone had to do something stupid, like carve a pentagram into his 6-year-old-son's back. Quote: "According to CBS DFW, Brent Troy Bartel of Richland Hills, Texas, told a 911 dispatcher early Wednesday that he had carved the religious symbol — often used as a symbol of faith by Neopagans — on his 6-year-old child because 'it's a holy day.'" The star, or pentagram, is a symbol used by many faiths, philosophies, and traditions, and this has nothing to do with modern Paganism. Bartel is now in custody, the boy is in stable condition, and with his mother.
- The Cornwall "Paganism Sex Case" (as dubbed by the BBC), which I've covered here previously, has now been turned over to a jury for a verdict. Quote: "Prosecutor Jason Beal said the duo had "used the cloak of paganism" to commit the offences. He said Mr Kemp had "put up a number of explanations" for him being linked with the case, but they were nothing more than "diversions" or "red herrings"." During the course of the hearing, murdered occultist and parish councillor Peter Solheim was also accused of being part of their group (Solheim was murdered by a former lover).
- The male lead in Bollywood film Ek Thi Daayan, Emraan Khan, is apparently talking to real-live Wiccans to better research for the supernatural witchcraft-themed film. Quote: "The actor didn't know that many practitioners of the Wiccan craft reside in Mumbai, in fact, he didn't even know that certain forms of witchcraft are practiced till today […] the actor is making the rounds of the plush residences in Mumbai where Wiccans stay and practise their craft. Emraan visits them diligently, to find out more about their customs and philosophies. Friends of the actor say his research has made quite an impression on him." So now you know where Wiccans live in India, the "plush residences" of Mumbai!
- With a new film treatment of "On the Road" on its way, Scott Staton at the New Yorker considers Neal Cassady as a sort of American "muse and demigod," a holy fool, "the consummate hipster-savant." Quote: "He presented an extreme embodiment of American freedom to close friends who were determined to become writers, and in being thus grafted onto their work, he became an unlikely literary legend."
- Singer, songwriter, and visual artist Phildel sent me a link to her new video "Storm Song," saying that it's "a celebration of the natural world," and that she has "always enjoyed a strong spiritual connection to nature."I think many folks here will enjoy the song, and the imagery in the video. Her debut album "The Disappearance of the Girl" is set for release in January 2013.
- "Hobbit" director Peter Jackson says that "West of Memphis," the documentary on the West Memphis 3 that he produced with partner Fran Walsh, was one he "never intended to make," but that "it turned out to be the most important one they've ever made." Quote: "Their support turned into funding of scientific research and, when they felt they needed to present the evidence to the public, they eventually decided to make a documentary on their findings. They asked Amy Berg ("Deliver Us From Evil") to direct." For all of my coverage of the West Memphis 3, click here.
- The Baltic Crusades were pretty terrible it turns out: "The Baltic Crusades left major ecological and cultural scars on medieval pagan villages, and new archaeological evidence shows the campaign caused deforestation, pushed species to extinction and may have even ended a pagan practice of eating dogs." I guess it was good for the wild dogs, but still. Pretty bad.
- More and more people are starting to notice that the "religiously unaffiliated" are becoming an important voting demographic. Quote: "The religiously unaffiliated voters are almost as strongly Democratic as white evangelicals are Republican, polls show. Their overwhelming support of Obama proved crucial in a number of swing states where the president lost both the Catholic and Protestant vote by single and low-double digits, but won the "nones" by capturing 70-plus percent of their votes." Maybe it's time to tone down the Christian culture war stuff?
That's it for now! My best wishes to everyone heading to Between The Worlds! Feel free to discuss any of these links in the comments, some of them I may expand into longer posts as needed.

MSRP: $29,215; as tested: $38,703
Highlander returns for 2014 in year one of its third generation. Toyota's midsize crossover first appeared in the 2001 model year.
The design of the new Highlander suggests that Toyota was aiming to make the new model more guy-friendly than the outgoing version, with a bolder grille, more prominent headlights, and flared fenders that tilt the styling equation more in the direction of an SUV. While the wheelbase remains the same (109.8 inches), Highlander picked up 2.7 inches in length and about half an inch in width.
Engines carry over from last year: a 2.7 liter four-cylinder, or 3.5-liter V-6, both backed by a six-speed automatic transmission. The four — offered only on base, LE models — is rated at 185 horsepower and 184 lb. ft. of torque, and is only available with front-wheel-drive. The EPA says that you can expect 20 miles per gallon city, and 25 highway. The six checks in with 270 h.p. and 248 lb. ft. of torque. V-6 models are offered with front or all-wheel-drive. Fuel economy is projected at 19/25 (FWD) and 18/24 (AWD). A gas/electric hybrid model is also available. Six-cylinder Highlanders can be equipped to tow up to 5,000 lb.
My tester was fitted with the V-6 and AWD. The six is well-sized for the 4,310 lb. crossover. It has sufficient power for all normal driving situations, and — with the exception of wide open throttle bursts — is hardly heard. I recorded 19 mpg's in mixed driving; one less than EPA's combined average. Toyota swapped the former, rear strut suspension for a double-wishbone setup this year, and while that switch had more to do with gaining interior space, ride quality is admirably smooth. In terms of handling,
Highlander is now 6.7 inches longer, 3.9 inches wider, 2 inches taller and some 825 lb. heavier than its first generation, and it feels it. It's stable and secure but not sporty, and requires a parking space suitably sized for a member of the midsize crossover class.
Highlander's Dynamic Torque-Control AWD is an on-demand system that defaults to front-wheel-drive under normal driving conditions. Power is apportioned to the rear wheels as needed to combat loss of traction. A locking mode can be engaged to split power evenly between front and back wheels at speeds below 25 mph. My test drive occurred during a rare week without precipitation, in this, The Winter That Won't Go Away. Therefore, while the AWD system saw limited action, the seat heaters were working overtime.
Highlander's form is friendly to people and cargo carrying. All models have three-row seating. XLE models offer the option of trading the split, second-row bench for a pair of captain's chairs, a layout which is standard on top level Limited's. The third-row seat is wide enough for three, but best suited to kids. Second-row seating can be moved fore and aft, and holds adults easily. Up front, soft touch surfaces are now blended into the dashboard; an appropriate upgrade in look and feel over the previous model. A mid-dash shelf adds a handy spot to hold cell phones and other pocket items. A tambour lid covers a newly cavernous center console. Parked prominently on the center stack is a multipurpose touch screen. It measures 6.1 inches on base models and a more eye-friendly 8 inches on XLE and Limited models. The screen is mounted flush with the dash and lacking a hood, it's subject to occasional washout from sunlight.
Switchgear is in the main well placed, though with the driver's seat pushed back to a comfortable setting, tuning controls for the sound system were a long reach. Therefore, the secondary controls on the steering wheel became the primary controls. Rear view cameras are highly useful features on all vehicles, but especially so with family transporters, and it's standard here on all models. Staying on visibility, Highlander shares a typical, crossover concern — rear 3/4 blind spots. A monitoring system provides a workaround, and it's standard on top-level Limited's, but unavailable elsewhere.
The increase in vehicle length from 2013 to 2014 allows for an expansion in the cargo capacity behind the third-row from last year's 10.3 cubic feet to 13.8, with all seats up. However, overall cargo capacity is reduced from last year's 95.4 cu. ft. to the current total of 83.7 cu. ft. Lift over height is comfortably low in back. The top-hinged lift gate is powered, and the top, glass section opens separately, on all but base models.
Pricing starts at $29,215 for a base, front-wheel-drive LE, followed by LE Plus ($32,740), XLE ($36,040), Limited ($39,640) and the flagship Hybrid ($47,300).

If you are planning on having kids and you have/get a lower back tattoo, it may affect you ability to get the spinal drugs (I forget what they are called right this moment). They won't put the needle into your back with a tattoo there because it would contaminate it on the way through.

Perry adds big item to special session
Gov. says transportation needs to be addressed.
AUSTIN — Gov. Rick Perry on Monday added fixing Texas' underfunded transportation system to the agenda of the special legislative session, the first new topic since he called lawmakers back to the Capitol to work on redistricting.
"Texas' growing economy and population demand that we take action to address the growing pressure on the transportation network across the state," Perry, who controls the special-session agenda, said in a statement.
Perry called the 30-day special session on May 27, immediately on the heels of the regular session's end. Adding transportation to the agenda doesn't extend the time frame for lawmakers to do their work, but it is a good sign lawmakers have overcome earlier stumbles in finding a long-term transportation funding fix.
"I would say it indicates there has been positive movement," said John Esparza, president of the Texas Motor Transportation Association. "The governor doesn't call everyone together to say 'OK, let's hash this out' unless there's been some talk with the leadership."
Lawmakers already have filed multiple proposals directed at finding more money for transportation — just waiting for Perry to say the word — in the wake of a regular session that saw no new funding source to address statewide, widely acknowledged problems including traffic congestion.
Transportation officials have said they need $4 billion more a year to meet current needs. Perry opened the session to "legislation relating to the funding of transportation infrastructure projects."
A leading proposal by Senate Transportation Committee Chairman Robert Nichols, R-Jackonsville, and Senate Finance Committee Chairman Tommy Williams, R-The Woodlands, would direct half of the future oil production tax revenues that would otherwise go into the rainy day fund to transportation instead.
Williams has said Senate Joint Resolution 2 could mean an additional $700 million to $800 million annually for transportation.
Williams and Nichols floated the idea late in the regular legislative session.
The proposal would require a two-thirds vote of lawmakers to be put on a statewide ballot for Texans' approval.
Rep. Joe Pickett, D-El Paso, has a similar proposed constitutional amendment that's been signed on to by leading lawmakers including House Appropriations Committee Chairman Jim Pitts, R-Waxahachie.
Pickett said Monday that he would rally behind the Senate measure, which he also supports, if that's the one with the best chance of passage. Lawmakers also have filed other measures that would direct proceeds from motor-vehicle, tire and motor-vehicle part sales to transportation; or pave the way for more agreements with private entities to build toll roads.
Sen. Leticia Van de Putte, D-San Antonio, said much depends on what Perry does with separate budget legislation that would restore a big share of the funding cut from public schools two years ago. If Perry vetoes a share of the education funding, she suggested, that could affect her vote on transportation money.
"I would love to support transportation funding, but all of this was done in a balance," Van de Putte said. "I'm all about capital improvements, but I'm also about my little human capital here."

OrthodoxWiki talk:Style Manual
Since we are all Orthodox here, should we not always refer to Saints with the word Saint proceding their name? I think it would be proper. 126.96.36.199 11:03, 23 Dec 2004 (CST)
That can be taken care of in the body of the article. Not only would it mess with alphabetization and searching to have every article name for a saint start with "saint," but there would also be potential issues with regard to which form we use: Saint, St., St, S. or S (all are currently in use in English convention). Additionally, there are potential quibbles over which persons are considered saints or not (Augustine of Hippo, Saint Augustine of Hippo, or Blessed Augustine of Hippo). Not using "saint" for article titles also means that moving articles will be lessened should a person already with an article be declared a saint. The note can simply be made in the article body. Rdr. Andrew
Surely in an Orthodox context RC churches should be designated "Roman Catholic" and not simply "Catholic"?

EVERY DAY we are revealing the exciting new team of bloggers lined up for this website, www.anglersmail.co.uk
Very soon (from Monday, July 30) we'll be having live blogs, one a day, covering the whole spectrum of modern coarse angling.
Today, Angler's Mail gives a warm welcome here to the Korum crew, who will be part of the BIG FISH blog team.
Read on, and check back for more bloggers' introductions, in their own words…
AS UK's leading coarse fishing brand, we at Korum pride ourselves on fast-paced development of top fishing tackle. But we couldn't get that tackle to such high standards without a core team of experienced angling consultants. A team who are constantly out there catching big fish.
Within our group we've got a great mix of guys. From the consistent and prolific Duncan Charman, to the genial and often hilarious Chris Ponsford. They're both pictured on the right.
There's Talk Sport radio host and journalist Nigel Botherway – who spearheads our I Heart Fishing campaign to get more new anglers in the sport – along with European river maestro, Rinko Oosterveen, who's a Dutch record holder for a number of species.
We've also got out-and-out big fish hunters like Dai Gribble and Gary Knowles – who between them have a Personal Best list most can only dream about. Let's not forget the naturally gifted fish catching machine Phil Spinks, either, or Mr Barbel himself, Ade Kiddell.
Brand manager Mat Woods is our resident carp expert and wordsmith, whilst media man Adam Firth loves a match type approach on commercial venues. It's a great mix, and we cover all different styles of fishing and a massive variety of species.
In our Angler's Mail blogs we'll be keeping you up to speed on what the whole team has been up to. The highs, the lows, and all the fun stuff in-between. We'll be giving you an insight to our favourite tactics, as well as revealing secret edges that give Team Korum the upper hand wherever we fish.
The great thing about fishing is that there's always a tale to tell at the end of it. So check in with us here at Angler's Mail and find out more in our special blog reports.

Associated Press
CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- Five-Time NASCAR champion Jimmie Johnson will visit tornado-ravaged Moore, Okla., on Thursday to help distribute supplies to victims of the May 19-20 tornados.
Johnson will be accompanied by his wife, Chani, a native of Muskogee. The visit is in conjunction with Johnson's sponsor, Lowe's, and the Feed the Children initiative.
Johnson said Monday he hopes University of Oklahoma football coach Bob Stoops and other Sooners join him.
Johnson also says he'll donate his winnings from Sunday's race at Dover to tornado recovery efforts.
The Jimmie Johnson Foundation each year also donates to school projects in Oklahoma, along with California and Charlotte, where he currently lives.
