We've got each other and that's a lot, for love. We'll give it a shot.
Woooo, we're halfway there, wooo, livin' on a prayer.
Now he's holding in, what he used to make it talk. So though, it's so though.
Gina dreams of running away.
We've got to hold on..."
Oooooooooh, we've got to hold on, ready or not.

Have ever been embarrassed by your smile? Many people are. A 2013 study found that 81% of young adults wished they had better teeth. They felt that others judged them by the look of their teeth -- and they aren’t wrong. A study published in the American Journal of Orthodontics in 2014 found that human resources executives considered candidates with ideal teeth to be more intelligent and harder working than candidates with tooth issues.
Thankfully, you don’t have to live with less-than-perfect teeth. At Chester Family Dentistry, we offer a wide range of cosmetic dentistry procedures to make your teeth both beautiful and healthy.
Unfortunately, some of the most popular drinks cause the worst stains. Coffee, tea, wine, and even soda and fruit juice can darken your teeth. You can try those whitening strips from the drug store. However, be aware that any chemical that’s strong enough to take on deep stains are strong enough to irritate your gums, cheeks and tongue.
That’s where a professional cleaning makes the difference. We cover the soft tissues of your mouth with a pleasant gel that protects it from the whitening chemicals. Then, we send you home with a whitening kit that’s custom fit for your teeth.
Do you have a cavity or broken tooth that makes you want to hide your smile? If so, bonding might be for you. We remove the cavity or edge of the break and sculpt a bonding agent to fill in the area. This prevents further decay and gives you back your smile.
You don’t have to live with missing teeth because we have several different options for replacement. You may opt for a bridge. For this option, the dentist places crowns on the two teeth next to the space of the missing tooth and suspends an artificial tooth between them. The trio will look just like your own healthy teeth and give you a better bite and chewing surface.
Another option is a dental implant. Our dentist inserts a titanium screw into the jawbone where the tooth is missing, then places a crown over top that behaves just like a natural tooth. One of the benefits to this option is that the titanium screw acts just like the root of a healthy tooth. This keeps your jawbone healthy and strong.
If you struggle with crooked teeth, the problem is more serious than just how your teeth look. Crooked teeth are difficult to keep clean, so you may end up with more cavities than people with straighter teeth. To keep your teeth healthy, orthodontics may be the choice for you. We offer traditional orthodontics with metal brackets and wires as well as clear aligners that slowly move your teeth back into place without anyone knowing that you have braces.
If whitening isn’t an option, or if your teeth are worn down or misshapen, consider dental veneers. We offer porcelain veneers, which are thin, custom-fit coverings that are affixed to the front of your teeth. You can choose veneers that are whiter than your natural teeth to provide whitening while covering imperfections, too.
The fact is, you don’t have to live with teeth you don’t love. Click the “book online” button or call our office in Warren, Ohio, and one of our dentists can help you restore your confidence with a beautiful new smile.
If you’re unhappy with your smile, cosmetic dentistry may be the answer. Of course, not everyone shares the same dental issues. Read on to learn what type of cosmetic dentistry might be best to help restore your smile — and your confidence. | 2019-04-25T12:53:04Z | https://www.chesterfamilydentists.com/blog/restoring-your-confidence-with-cosmetic-dentistry |

May is National Hypertension Month – how’s your blood pressure?
High blood pressure is both preventable and treatable! Early detection is key.
Do you remember when your blood pressure was last checked? I checked my own blood pressure this morning! I’ve made it part of my routine. High blood pressure is sometimes called the silent killer and I don’t want it sneaking up on me.
It’s called the silent killer because many people don’t know that their blood pressure is high. They may not have any symptoms of the problem. Early detection is key to preventing damage to your body that could cause early death.
You can easily find out what your blood pressure is! You probably know of places in your community where you can check your blood pressure: many pharmacies have a blood pressure testing centre or you can visit your health care provider. You can also purchase your own blood pressure monitor and check it at home. I have several people in my family who have high blood pressure and they take medication to lower their blood pressure.

How many married couples out there still celebrate their dating anniversary? We do. It’s a good reminder of how many years Jason and I have been together and another good reason to grab some delicious food! We officially became a couple on November 7, 1996…that was 17 years ago!
The first time we dined here, we came for brunch and both got the “Demon Lover,” (Spicy Buttermilk Fried Fulton Valley Chicken Paillard and Buttermilk Waffle & Old-Fashioned Cream Gravy or Vermont Maple Syrup). I’m not a big fan of the name but definitely a big fan of their fried chicken. Read my post about our FoodieMoon, where I talk about our first time at 900 Grayson.
This time for lunch, Jason ordered the Grayson Burger and I got the TV Dinner. We also shared a side of the Fried Chicken Paillard and the Stone Soup. I’ve had their TV Dinner before (also came here with a girlfriend) and both times the entrees were delicious! I’ll be ordering this again and again, for sure.
Stone Soup (aka soup of the day). I can’t remember what this was, but it was really good.
Grayson Burger – Creekstone Natural Beef, Nueske’s Double Smoked Bacon, N.Y. White Cheddar, Crispy Shoestring Onions, House-Made BBQ Sauce & Herb French Fries. Where are the veggies?
TV Dinner – salmon (either meat, fish, or fowl), starch, veggie (mashed potatoes & chard). Changes daily. Everything was flavorful and the salmon was very moist.
Book Description – As a follow up to her two bestselling books, Bittersweet and Cold Tangerines, author and blogger Shauna Niequist returns with the perfect read for those who love food and value the community and connection of family and friends around the table.
About the Author – Shauna grew up in Barrington, Illinois, and then studied English and French Literature at Westmont College in Santa Barbara. She is married to Aaron Niequist, who is a pianist and songwriter. Aaron is a worship leader at Willow Creek Community Church and is recording a project called A New Liturgy. Aaron & Shauna live outside Chicago with their sons, Henry and Mac. Shauna writes about the beautiful and broken moments of everyday life–friendship, family, faith, food, marriage, love, babies, books, celebration, heartache, and all the other things that shape us, delight us, and reveal to us the heart of God. You can find out more about Shauna and read her blog at http://www.shaunaniequist.com.
My Review – I had heard good things about Bread & Wine from a friend and was excited to read the book myself. After hearing Shauna Neiquist speak at a Mothers of Preschoolers Convention in August 2012, I came to the conclusion that she was one of my favorite speakers there. I was drawn to her warm personality and humorous stories. She was honest, transparent, witty, relatable. I felt much the same way as I was reading Bread & Wine, being drawn to Shauna’s warm, honest, transparent, witty, relatable and humorous stories about her life around the table.
“If you put in the time, the learning, the trying, the mess, and the failure, at the end you will have learned to feed yourself and the people you love, and that’s a skill for life – like tennis or piano but yummier and far less expensive.
Whew! That takes the pressure off, doesn’t it? It’s not just about the food but about the relationships that are formed and nourished. I hope to make my home like that one day, a place where people feel safe and loved and encouraged. I also want people to see glimpses of God and his love for them when we gather and share our lives together.
Shauna is a great story-teller and I loved reading Bread & Wine. I learned that life is often times messy and unpredictable, yet it can be even more incredibly beautiful and memorable. Now it’s my turn to invite people to come and share life around my table.

What's a content management system (CMS)? A content management system is software that keeps track of every piece of content on your Web site, much like your local public library keeps track of books and stores them. Content can be simple text, photos, music, video, documents, or just about anything you can think of. A major advantage of using a CMS is that it requires almost no technical skill or knowledge to manage. Since the CMS manages all your content, you don't have to. | 2019-04-19T12:57:16Z | http://www.valvas.be/?Page=304 |

Since 1969 AMC MECANOCAUCHO has pioneered the manufacture and design of systems aimed at the reduction of integral vibrations from structures and air-borne noise . AMC creates comprehensive ranges of anti-vibration mounts based on metal rubber and rubber spring for the effective reduction of structure borne noise.
Spring mount is necessary in all machinery, which, by virtue of its design, has reciprocating or rotating parts, creates vibration to some degree through the imbalance of the moving parts.
This vibration produced by a machine leads to different problems, such as a reduction in the machine’s useful life through part wear, plus the transmission of this vibration to other non-insulated adjacent structures, giving rise to problems of noise and vibration transmission. It is therefore important to install a spring mount to machinery.
Ceiling hanger Akustik+Sylomer® is the trademark of a new solution for the anti-vibration mountings of suspended ceilings or vibrating elements that have to be suspended.
They are used for the attenuation of vibrations, reducing structure-borne noise.
It's necessary an antivibration mounting because this vibration produced by a machine leads to different problems, such as a reduction in the machine’s useful life through part wear, plus the transmission of this vibration to other noninsulated adjacent structures, giving rise to problems of noise and vibration transmission.
For more than 40 years, AMC MECANOCAUCHO® has been developing the “AMC MECANOCAUCHO®” range of anti vibration mounting which can solve problems like the ones described above in all types of machinery, mobile or static, thus protecting people and the environment from the harmful effects of noise and vibrations. | 2019-04-24T20:06:33Z | http://www.northwardacoustics.com/amc-products/ |
Researchers from Medical Device Safety Institute, Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, Boston and the Department of Computer Science and Engineering at University of Washington, Seattle just published an article in the latest New England Journal of Medicine suggesting technological and regulatory actions that they hope will increase the security of implantable medical devices. As has been reported earlier, implantable pacemakers, defibrillators, and similar devices are subject to wireless hacking that may influence their functionality. Although a lip smacking target for devious hackers, an actual event where a person’s implant was interfered with is yet to be reported. | 2019-04-24T18:40:09Z | https://www.medgadget.com/2010/04/nejm_improving_the_security_and_privacy_of_implantable_medical_devices.html |
Danika Tyler Garcia was struck around 7:30 a.m. at Stokes Street near Southwest Expressway, according to the sheriff's office.
She was taken to a hospital with life-threatening injuries and later succumbed to those injuries, sheriff's officials said.
The incident is under investigation, according to the sheriff's office.
VTA officials said there were about 40 passengers on the train that hit the girl. Those passengers were transferred to a bus because train service was disrupted. | 2019-04-22T06:17:30Z | https://abc7news.com/archive/9398227/ |

Broken links can be dead ends, unless you employ some ingenuity and create a favorable impression—and help your visitors navigate back to your operative pages.
When we discuss “impeccable” or “stellar” Web design, we imagine modernized layouts with rich and interactive media.
Ease of navigation and the overall user experience falls into our general disposition as well. But what happens when we land on a page that doesn’t exist, such as a broken link?
This page does not help visitors, rendering it valueless.
The 404 page, which users are directed to when a URL points to a page that no longer exists on the server, have long plagued the Internet. They’ve never been helpful, and in the vast majority of cases, they’re just ugly.
But let’s get back to 404s.
It’s a short (four-minute) video, and it shows how a bunch of startups shifted the way they thought about 404s by incorporating how visitors feel when they hit a 404. This is why 404s are opportunistic and affect social Web design.
Below are seven examples of websites that have gotten the 404 page right, increasing customer retention and/or creating a share-worthy experience. At the core, they demonstrate ingenuity, especially from websites that neglect optimizing their 404.
Klapp is a Norwegian website that helps serve up content to those looking to create a marketing campaign or just need help with telling a story.
As a game, and as a 404, this page is extremely sticky. Visitors might even lose track of time as they try to top their own scores. After playing, we realize the site we’re on and remember, “This is the site with its own Space Invaders.” The 404 is no longer a subtle segue, it’s a retention point and a branding mechanism. It’s completely share-worthy, enabling traffic generation from social media referrals.
A company that specializes in designing good-looking websites, no matter the screen size, Good Dog Design decided to use its 404 as a sort of advertisement.
A tongue-in-cheek advertisement for a lost dog is shown to users, and phone tabs can be removed. The interactive element of removing tabs demonstrates its skills and expertise. If potential customers are landing on this page, it maintains the flow and boosts first impressions. There’s a bit of cleverness going on, as well.
Upon completing this task, we have a pretty positive impression.
The popular construction company we all know by the “CAT” in yellow, black, and white, offers an efficient theme in the mix of 404s here. They have a high-resolution background image of an employee looking through a box, similar to a visitor looking for a specific page. They include seven “core links”—the most popular/important pages. This helps visitors navigate quickly instead of just focusing on a funny way of saying the page is lost.
This is an example of something we’d share in a flash. Its absurdity and humor are so farfetched that it’s perfect for Facebook, Twitter, even social aggregation like StumbleUpon, Delicious, reddit, and Tumblr.
As a branding and Web design agency, Focus uses its 404 opportunity to demonstrate its creativity. Because 404s make us feel like we’re off the beaten path, an office room full of workers with horse heads truly makes us feel like we took a wrong turn. A contact form call to action, along with top navigation bar continuity enables us to bounce to relevant pages.
This is a light text-based game full of witty humor and challenges. Tactfully, this was created to be shared in confusion, which is the very nature of 404s.
The commands for the game are very simple but very difficult to guess after the first “go south” command. This uncertainty prompts us to share the page in pursuit of a solution.
Collectively, the whole process of sharing and discovering fragments of the game make it a very effective tactic.
This 404 is both relevant and user-friendly. Although it’s static, I find it to be social regarding its theme. Given that the website is for auto parts, the dead end sign on the road is thematic. From a usability perspective, we have a big yellow CTA that returns us to the homepage. Alternatively, the Web copy mentions a search bar above.
This is a great 404 from a user perspective, because we get both the recognition of a website that is giving an error message some personality and the ability to quickly return to searching, this increasing customer retention. When 404s fit into a theme, whether static or dynamic, they still communicate values to us.
Arguably one of the most creative 404s in current existence, the social foodie app Nosh produced a hilarious and professional-quality video. In it, two soldiers recover a missing (and hostile) “404” page. The video itself has over 139,000 views exemplifying a social success. When it came out in July 2011, the video went viral, drawing attention to its app. The page itself has a sidebar on the left that upholds continuity. Had the page just been a video, we might forget what site we’re on and navigate away.

It's barely mid-March, but I was gung-to-the-ho on the Food In Jars challenge this month. It was a choice between making jelly or a making shrub, and--since I am definitely on #teamjam over #teamjelly--I decided to try Marisa's blueberry ginger shrub.
Do you know about shrubs? They're drinks made with fruit, sugar, and vinegar. They were popular in the colonial era--both mixed with booze and mixed with water as a non-alcoholic "day drink"--and are now enjoying a comeback as trendy craft cocktails.
If you haven't tried one, you're probably thinking, "Drink vinegar? Ew!" But the vinegar really just gives the berries and sugar complexity. It's not truly sour; just a little "wang" on the back of your tongue.
As the recipe set out, I made my shrub using the cold method (so I mixed it all together and let it steep in the fridge for a few days rather than warming the ingredients together on the stove), and I was really happy with how it came out. By not cooking it, the flavor of the blueberries and ginger came through nice and fresh and juicy.
This afternoon, when my shrub syrup was done, I strained off the berries and spent some time mixing up a few drinks.
For the boozy version, Sweet Husband and I decided we liked it with about two ounces of syrup, an ounce and a half of bourbon, a dash of bitters, and the rest of a (eight ounce) jam jar filled with tonic.
As I said above, the vinegar gives the concoction some depth of flavor, and as a result the drink tasted like something you'd get at a fancy cocktail place. Sweet Husband opined that rye might be better than bourbon--so we may experiment with that still--but I was quite pleased with it as it was.
For the non-alcoholic version, I poured two ounces of shrub syrup over ice and then filled the (again eight ounce) glass with tonic. I thought the shrub was fine that way, too, but Little Miss was over the moon for it. The "fizzy drink" was such a hit that I could definitely see us making more (and experimenting with different kinds) this summer in order to make the kids a fun drink when mama and dada have our grown-up versions on warm Friday nights. | 2019-04-24T20:51:42Z | http://mybitofearth.net/mybitofearth/2017/3/11/blueberry-ginger-shrub |

A water main break on Corona Ave near Grand Ave led the City to issue a 'boil water advisory' for a list of 56 addresses between Monday night and Tuesday afternoon.
UPDATE: All boil water advisories have been lifted for a list of 56 addresses in the middle of Medford following a water main break on Monday evening.
The City notified school administrators at Wilson Elementary about the lifted advisory first. The school was among the buildings that lost water pressure on Monday — leaving the potential for harmful bacteria growth.
According to the City, school officials had to provide bottled water to all students and staff on Tuesday, and also prepared all of the school food at North Medford High before bringing it to Wilson.
"Tests were conducted and submitted Monday night by the City. Those tests have come back clear for Wilson Elementary. The school can now resume water use," said Danielle Craig with the Medford Schol District.
Tests have since cleared all other residents to begin using their water again, according to the City.
INITIAL REPORT: A water main break near the intersection of Corona Avenue and Grand Avenue in Medford has led the City to issue a "boil water advisory," according to a statement released on Monday.
"During the repair a portion of Corona Ave, Miracle Lane, Johnson Street, and Gayety Lane inadvertently depressurized. Due to the loss of water pressure in the distribution system, potentially harmful bacteria could be present in the water supply for the following 56 service addresses ONLY," the City said.
The City says that the affected area is limited to only those addresses. The loss of water pressure can cause the buildup of harmful bacteria, which boiling the water can kill.
"If these bacteria are present, they could make you sick, and are a particular concern for people with weakened immune systems," the City said.
The City will inform those houses affected once tests show that the bacteria is gone and the boil water advisory is over. Those tests could take as long as 24-36 hours.
For more information, go to medfordwater.org or contact the City's Customer Service Department at (541) 774-2430. For an after-hours emergency, call (541) 779-7611. | 2019-04-21T01:04:33Z | https://www.kdrv.com/content/news/City-of-Medford-Issues-Boil-Eater-Advisory-for-Some-Addresses-504350111.html |
Last month, Mission: Impossible - Fallout writer/director Christopher McQuarrie teased the full story behind Henry Cavill's “Mustache-gate." The entire affair dealt with the fact that Paramount would not allow the actor to shave off his mustache for Justice League reshoots, forcing Warner Brothers to digitally remove the facial hair for certain shots. While appearing on Empire's podcast, McQuarrie finally told the entire tale.
To start off, he explained that the mustache stemmed from the fact that Cavill had just finished shooting David Raymond's thriller Nomis, for which he had grown a beard. He trimmed it down to the simple 'stache and ran it by McQuarrie, who liked it since it helped distinguish August Walker's look from that of Superman. In addition, the hairy upper lip reminded the filmmaker of Clark Gable, and he told Cavill to watch It Happened One Night and Gone with the Wind for acting inspiration.
"When the question came - the reshoots for Justice League came out - [Justice League producer] Chuck Roven called me, and he said, 'We need your help and we need to shave Henry’s mustache. We need him to come back and we need to do these reshoots.' And I said, 'Look, Chuck, naturally, I want to do everything I can to help you, but I also have to think about our production. Let me talk to everybody and figure out what the scheduling would be.' And I went and spoke to [our producer] Jake Myers, and the suggestion was made through channels that we shave the mustache [and] Henry [could] begin to grow the mustache back and then they would give us the resources to digitally fill in Henry's mustache. Because like it or not, a fake mustache in close-up on a 75mm lens is never going to look like anything but a fake mustache in a close-up. if you have any doubts about that, just go back and watch Tom Cruise in Rogue Nation with his beard and mustache. It’s passable for a scene, not for [an entire] film.
So, we offered the following compromise: Jake Myers calculated the amount of money that it would take to replace the number of shots, and essentially, what Jake was able to project was about a $3 million visual effects budget. So, I don't know how much Henry was in Justice League, I've never seen the movie, but I can tell you how much it would've cost for Mission: Impossible to digitally add Henry Cavill's mustache, and we said yes. We said, here's what we'll do: give us the $3 million and we'll shut down, and that’ll give Henry Cavill the time to grow his mustache back, and we'll just shut our movie down. ... We said we'll do this, at which point, somebody from Paramount Pictures said, 'What is going on? What are you people even talking about?' They're like, 'There's no way we're going to do that. We’re not shutting down.’ We were just like, 'Okay.' That was the best plan that we could come up with."
McQuarrie finished off the account by saying this wasn't (and isn't) a laughing matter and that he sympathized with the folks at Warner Brothers, recounting how he's had similar production troubles in the past; he felt their pain and was "perfectly willing" to put his movie on hold.
And while every effort was made to accomodate the DCEU, the scheduling of both films didn't work out. Had Tom Cruise broken his ankle at a better point in time (if there ever is a good time to break one's ankle), Cavill could have gone off and shaved his mustache while Cruise was recovering and the script and existing footage were being rewritten/edited, McQuarrie admitted.
“Nobody wanted to stick it to Justice League. Nobody wanted to hurt those people," he said. "I'm sorry that they were ever in that position [but] I had other things that I had to contend with, and one of them was Henry Cavill going 100 miles-an-hour on a glacier with a fake mustache on. That was just never gonna happen. It was just never, ever, ever gonna happen." | 2019-04-22T14:02:46Z | https://www.syfy.com/syfywire/mission-impossible-director-explains-full-story-behind-mustache-gate-and-the-3-million |
The area is located north of Columbia along Creasy Springs Road at Obermiller Road. Thirty-seven residences will be served with gravity sewers which will flow to the Sewer District's Oberlin Valley wastewater treatment plant.
Country Squire NID was partially funded by an ARRA grant.
The Country Squire NID project brought public sewer to homes in the Obermiller Road/Creasy Springs area.
The new sewer line goes in to serve homes in Country Squire previously on a private lagoon.

The allocation of an additional €500,000 for repairs to local roads in the South Roscommon area has been welcomed by Cllr. John Naughten.
“While the funding won’t address the deficit in the road infrastructure completely, it is very welcome additional funding that will go some way to repairing some of the worst roads, particularly in the South Roscommon area.
“Roscommon County Council was successful in securing this funding following a meeting with my fellow elected representatives from the Athlone Municipal District at which Minister Shane Ross was in attendance, where we outlined the significant deterioration in the road infrastructure particularly in the south of the county,” Cllr. Naughten remarked. | 2019-04-24T19:55:24Z | https://www.advertiser.ie/athlone/article/103875/local-fine-gael-elected-representative-welcomes-additional-roads-funding?utm_source=related&utm_medium=web&utm_campaign=readrelated |

Hermione is an ordinary teenage girl, living an ordinary life and working towards her GCSEs at Ashton on Mersey High School. But after returning to school to begin a new term, strange things start happening. Who is the new girl in Hermione's PE class, and what secrets is she hiding? Who are the strange, sinister looking men hanging around the school? And what are the odd noises that seem to be coming from underneath the house in the middle of the night? These are just some of the questions that Hermione wants answering.
Hermione Applegate and The Secret Under the House is the first adventure in a new series aimed at children aged 10 and over. A collection of science-fiction, paranormal and supernatural stories, it will include elements of Harry Potter, The X-files, Doctor Who and Torchwood.
I'm not familiar with the title.
Is the name "Hermione" actually that common or is it just a coincidence that is the name of one of the Harry Potter characters?
It's a memorable name the kids will love. | 2019-04-22T12:57:59Z | https://aliensoup.com/threads/hermione-applegate-and-the-secret-under-the-house-by-richard-egan.740/ |

Top quotes from the Eagles’ thrilling, roller-coaster, season-saving, ref-ripping 32-30 victory over the Houston Texans on Sunday at Lincoln Financial Field.
It's third-and-10. The Eagles had just blown a 29-16 lead in the fourth quarter.
Nick Foles completes a 19-yard pass to Alshon Jeffery to keep the drive alive — but is Nick Foles alive?
Foles was bulldozed by Jadeveon Clowney and is flat on his back in the end zone.
Center Jason Kelce held himself responsible.
He was still alive, and minutes later — thanks to Zach Ertz, Darren Sproles and Jake Elliott — so was the Eagles’ season.
Which didn’t surprise Long at all.
“It’s Christmas. It’s Saint Nick,” Long said.
Long wants some credit too.
Foles appreciates the shrine which his teammates built to him in the locker room, complete with lit candles, pictures of Foles and a copy of Foles' book.
Foles threw for a franchise record 471 yards. The Eagles have nine 400-yard passing games since 1999, and Foles has four of them.
He has been great, but Carson Wentz is still the franchise QB. This may have been Foles’ final game at the Linc, and the thought crossed his mind.
“It did,” he said. “It’s emotional. I love playing in Philly. I knew there was a chance this could be it. I don’t think about the future, but I am aware of that because the city means a lot to me. This team means a lot to me. Wearing that jersey means a lot to me.
Brandon Graham in the second quarter was called for roughing the passer on what looked like a perfectly clean hit.
“What did he tell me. He told me that I hit him in the shoulder and neck area. That’s what he said. It wasn’t the body weight,” Graham said.
Ertz in the third quarter caught his 111th pass of the season to break Jason Witten’s single-season record for receptions by a tight end.
With 12 receptions for 110 yards, Ertz now has 113 this season.
“I don’t think I’ve truly come to grips with it yet," he said before expressing his thanks to Witten and Brent Celek, among many others.
It’s his franchise record 10th career game with double-digit receptions. Only two other tight ends in league history have recorded double-figure games with double-figure receptions: Witten (11) and Tony Gonzalez (15).
Deshaun Watson somehow escaped a handful of Eagles late in the fourth quarter and threw a 22-yard laser to tight end Jordan Akins to convert a third-and-11.
With a win over Washington and a Vikings loss at home to the Bears, the Eagles are in the playoffs. | 2019-04-26T17:05:57Z | https://www.mcall.com/sports/eagles/mc-spt-eagles-texans-quotes-20181223-story.html |
Christmas is coming (as if you didn’t know) and like many of us, you might be thinking about revamping a room or two before your Christmas guests arrive. Replacing an old carpet or worn-out tiles with a brand new Leoline vinyl floor is a great-value way to give your home real wow factor, and if you want to make your festive budget go even further, you can even lay it yourself. We’ve compiled a step-by-step installation guide that tells you everything you need to know, from how to measure up and select the best tools for the job, to how to fit your floor in alcoves and around chimney breasts.
Leoline vinyl is supplied in rolls, which makes it quicker to lay than tiles. Unless your room is very large, you can usually lay it in one seamless piece. There’s no need for underlay, flooring profiles or even adhesive, provided the area you want to cover is less than 12 sq m and you don’t intend to fill it with sliding furniture such as office or dining chairs on wheels. | 2019-04-22T10:05:10Z | https://www.leoline.co.uk/blog/yes-you-can-lay-leoline-flooring-yourself |

This area was originally the home of the Sauk first nations people. In the 17th and 18th century, it was crossed by French explorers and fur traders. The first settlement began in the 1830's The settlement was a natural place for a harbor and the continued growth of the community was tied directly to its port. In fact, Port Washington claims to be the first man-made harbor in North America.
Over the years, Port Washington Wisconsin was an important transhipment port for lumber, grain, fish and manufactured goods. Today, Port Washington is home to one of the largest commercial fishing fleets on the Great Lakes. As commercial activity either declined or shifted to other ports, recreational boating assumed a much larger role and is now the focus of harbor activities.
The approaches to Port Washington Wisconsin are clear from all directions. . The harbor sits at the mouth of Sauk Creek. The outer harbor is formed by a 2000 ft/ 617 m breakwater, running on a NW - SE line. There is a Fl RED light on the north pierhead, with a horn and visible 10.3 nm offshore. The south breakwater encloses the harbor and is marked with a Fl GREEN light, visible 6.8 nm offshore.
At the northwest corner of the harbor, there is a 1000 ft/ 300m breakwater that serves as the south wall of the inner harbor. The entrance to this inner harbor is on the northwest corner, marked with a Fl GREEN light, visible 5.6 nm. Port Washington Marina is located in the inner harbor.
Port Washington Marina has 220 slips with about 4 dozen available for transient sailors. There is a fuel dock (diesel and gasoline) and a pumpout station. Water and power are available at all slips. The marina office building has restrooms, showers and laundry facilities. There is a ship's store on-site. The grounds have a children's playground, picnic areas and BBQ grills. There is internet service available.
PWYC does not have facilities for visiting sailors. However, their clubhouse, located about a block from the marina welcomes sailors from other clubs and ports.
Beck's Grand Ave. Mini Mart carries basic supplies. It is about 1 mi/1.6 km from the marina. There is a Walmart Superstore located about 3.5 mi/5.5 km from the marina.
Port Washington State Bank is located about .3 mi/.5 km from the marina.
Aurora Medical Center (262) 329-1000 is Port Washington's community hospital. It is located 7 mi/11km south of the marina.
Shopko Express Pharmacy (262) 284-3436 is located 1 mi/1.6 km north of the marina.
There are a number of options within easy walking distance of the marina.
Newport Shores Restaurant is just noth of the marina. This very popular restaurant serves steaks, ribs, fish and chicken along with a great view of the lake.
Dockside Deli is on the west side of the marina and serves a variety of deli sandwiches. Enjoy on their deck with a nice view overlooking the marina.
Further into town (just a few blocks), you can find Beanies Mexican Restaurant and Tello's Grill and Cafe. Both serve Mexican fare and Tello's offers Greek menu options as well.
The Pasta Shoppe is a long-time local favorite for Italian food.
Every July, Port Washington hosts the Port Washington Fish Day This is a huge celebration and draws visitors (including a lot of sailors) from all over. Book a slip well ahead of time and come ready to have some fun.
Port Washington Light Station, built in 1860, is open for tours. A stroll along the Harbor Walk is informative as well with an exhibit recalling ships that have been lost on Lake Michigan.
The downtown district is close by and, in many ways, presents a classic mid-western town streetscape. Every Saturday throughout the summer there is a bustling Farmers' Market.

Pancit Palabok from Karinderia by the Filipino Street Food at Eat Street Markets. What's in it? Rice noodles topped with traditional sauce, sautéed chicken & pork mince, garnished with garlic chives, eggs, prawns, smoked fish flakes, fried shallots and garlic. 😍 . ✔️ It's hard to come by palabok even at Filipino restaurants so this was definitely a rare find. If you're up for something adventurous, we definitely recommend trying it it out. Ingredients were very fresh too and the sauce is nice and rich. . ❌ Almost perfect but we wish the noodles were a bit more Al dente.

Italians sure do love their coffee, and for true connoisseurs a paper cup full of Starbucks just isn’t going to cut it. So what better solution than sticking a fully functioning espresso maker in the new Fiat 500L?
The Italian car company revealed this month that the latest version of the sporty hatchback will come with the option of a Lavazza coffee maker (complete with matching cups, a sugar container, and a spoon) right in the center console.
Lavazza is more or less the Starbucks of Italy so it was a natural pairing – as natural as putting a coffee machine in a car could have been. Fiat called the machine “perfectly integrated in the car with a deck designed expressly by Fiat.” The “brewing flask” plugs into its own power source; just add water and coffee grounds and voila: mocha for the miles.
The car is due to hit Italian streets in October, then the rest of Europe, and make its way across the pond to the US in 2013. Don’t throw out your to-go cup just yet, though: it’s doubtful that the espresso maker will be an option in the American make, given the brewing controversy over driver distraction in the states. | 2019-04-20T17:00:22Z | http://newsfeed.time.com/2012/07/16/the-ultimate-to-go-cup-new-car-has-espresso-maker-built-in/ |

This volume of essays examines the claim that a linguistic macrofamily can be identified which includes not only the Indo-European and Afroasiatic language families but also the Kartvelian, Uralic,Altaic and Dravidian families. The Nostratic case was put by Aharon Dolgopolsky in his The Nostratic Macrofamily and Linguitic Palaeontology , and it is here evaluated critically by linguists specialising in the language families concerned. Contents include: The Nostratic Macrofamily (A. Bomhard); Nostratic Languages: Internal and External Relationship (V. Shevoroshkin); Beyond Nostratic in Time and Space (G. Decsy); Nostratic and Linguistic Palaeontology in Methodological Perspective (L. Campbell); Family Trees and Favourite Daughters (A. McMahon, M. Lohr & R.

A lot of our friends have had babies in the last few weeks.
Some we have met, some we have just seen pictures of.
They are all so small and precious.
It was really hard to believe that my little Lucy girl was ever that small.
But to remember I thought I would share a photo of my tiny newborn.
She has grown so much and will keep on getting bigger.
Every day is a joy. Sometimes we laugh, sometimes I go a bit hysterical. Sometimes Myles needs to step in, sometimes we loll about on the grass as a family of three.
our lives are forever filled with joy.
that girl pressed up against my belly trying endlessly to feed while we listened to the Unthanks on repeat.
My tiny girl who would sleep anywhere.
Who we wanted to poke so she would wake up and play. | 2019-04-24T02:41:41Z | http://www.tuscanybrown.com/2011/10/l.html |

Find out if a line of credit or personal loan is right for you and compare them now.
Both a personal loan and line of credit give you access to finance when you need it, but both have their benefits and drawbacks.
Learn how they differ and see your finance options below.
Loan term. Personal loans have a fixed term of anywhere between one and seven years, and need to be paid back in full by the end of that term. Lines of credit don't come with a "term" and the funds you borrow become available again after they're repaid (plus interest).
Repayments. Both involve monthly repayments. However, personal loans have fixed monthly repayments while lines of credit depend on the previous balance, amount drawn, accruing interest and other factors.
Fees. Personal loans usually charge monthly service and application fees while lines of credit usually charge annual service fees. However, lenders for both personal loans as well as lines of credit may charge a variety of other hidden fees. Make sure you're aware of all fees for any option you're considering.
Up-front lump-sum. Once the lender approves your application and you agree to the loan contract, you’ll receive all your funds up-front.
Interest rate. Your lender will charge either a fixed interest rate that won’t change over the term of your loan, or a variable interest rate which can rise or fall depending on market rates.
Term. The period over which you’ll be making repayments to fully pay back the loan is called the loan term. It generally ranges between one year and seven years.
Discount rates. Your lender may offer you a limited time discount if you take out a significant loan amount.
Flexible repayments. Depending on your lender, you may be able to choose exactly how you’ll be making monthly repayments.
Lines of credit have a maximum credit limit and you’ll only be charged interest on the funds you actually use. Repayments are made monthly but there is no fixed “term” for a line of credit. As long as you’re making your minimum monthly repayments, your funds will always be available to you.
Option to increase maximum credit limit. Your lender may provide an option to increase the maximum credit limit in line with your specific needs.
Flexible withdrawals. You’ll be able to withdraw funds from your line of credit whenever you like, as long as it doesn’t exceed your maximum credit/daily limit.
No fixed repayments. As long as you’re making a minimum required monthly payment (a percentage of withdrawn funds), there’s no fixed repayment amount.
Interest rate. Interest is paid monthly and is only charged on the amount you have used.
Which is suited to you?
A personal loan is suited to someone who wants structured repayments and an initial lump sum paid to them at the beginning of the loan term. A personal loan is well suited for those looking to make large purchases such as for a wedding or car using that lump sum. A personal loan can also be appropriate for those looking to consolidate a large amount of debt.
A personal loan may also be better-suited for those who are generally unable to pay their monthly credit card balance in full since not doing so for lines of credit could get very expensive.
Lines of credit are helpful for those needing ongoing sources of funding to be used when they see fit. Since lines of credit are revolving, you won’t be charged on funds you don’t use, making them an excellent option as a backup source of funding.
Since interest rates could get expensive for lines of credit, they are suited to those looking for flexibility with their credit and an ongoing source of funds for purchases such as paying bills, consolidating short-term debt and shopping.
If you’re looking to use the funds for large purchases, you’d probably be better off with a personal loan. If you want an ongoing source of funding then a line of credit would be more suitable.
How flexible are you with repayments?
Whichever option you consider, make sure you’re well aware of how disciplined you’ll need to be with repayments. Some people are tempted to use a line of credit simply because it’s there. If this could be a problem for you, you may be better off with the structured features of a personal loan since they offer fixed-repayment schedules, giving you consistency and balance.
Unsecured personal loans may offer about $55,000 while secured personal loans would depend on the worth of the collateral you offer up as security, but can be as much as $80,000. On the other hand, not many lenders approve small amounts for personal loans but do so for lines of credit. Very large lines of credit are also available, but you’ll need to meet strict eligibility criteria.
The Liberty Personal Best loan offers a competitive rate to help you finance a range of personal purchases.
Are you looking for a competitive personal loan? Why not consider one from a credit union? Read our guide to find out everything you need to know about credit union personal loans, what you need to be eligible and how you can apply.

All of our timber products are manufactured using engineered timber – softwood, hardwood or oak. The technique of engineering multiple sections of timber, arranging them so the direction of the grain goes in different directions ensures that a rigid timber is created. Ideal for solid windows, French doors and bifold doors as there is no warping or twisting, guaranteeing a perfectly fitting door for years to come.
BM TRADA Q-MARK – Certification that a manufacturer has undergone an independent appraisal to confirm their compliance with the performance aspects of a specification.
Secured by design – This means the doors ability to withstand intruders breaking in has been tested and meets a police preferred specification.
CE – This is the manufacturer’s declaration that the product meets requirements of the applicable EC directives.
FSC – this is an independent, non-governmental, not for profit organisation established to promote the responsible management of the world’s forests.
When considering thermal performance issues, timber, a naturally insulating material, makes for an excellent choice. Air pockets within timber’s structure create a natural barrier to heat and cold. Of all the timber options in construction, lightweight timber (softwood) is the better insulator overall as thermal conductivity increases with density. In short, timber is an outstanding natural insulator and will warm a room not only thermally, but also with its beautiful warm grains.
All of our timber products are made to order in Europe, lead times can vary from 6-8 weeks.
Our timber windows, as standard are factory glazed with laminated double glazing, this means that each double glazed unit is made up of glass that has two panes laminated for additional strength and safety. | 2019-04-20T18:11:27Z | http://www.gnwindows.co.uk/bespoke-timber-products/ |
With the recent EU referendum in the UK, a wave of extreme right wing xenophobic parties across Europe and the rise of Donald Trump in America, serious questions have to be asked and addressed regarding the state of the political system and model known as Western Democracy as a viable, efficient guarantor of egalitarian economic progress, human betterment and social harmony and stability. Western politicians, particularly in the United States and United Kingdom are quick to fetishize democracy as the ultimate and perfect political system alongside a free market economy with multi-party elections. They are even quicker to denounce other political systems which do not conform to the so-called norms of Western democratic precepts. The former US State Department intellectual Francis Fukuyama even went so far as to say at the end of the Cold War that Western democracy represented human beings final stage of evolution and the most superior form of governance mankind will ever achieve. Yet is this really the case or is democracy a recipe for chaos and ineffective government alongside an ever increasing socially and economically polarised populace? The word «democracy» from the ancient Greek in its purest most literal form means the will of the people. However, in this increasingly complex, interdependent, internet and media driven world can democracy really deliver the will of the people? Indeed, with societies becoming more diverse and polarized, what is the actual meaning of the «will of people»? Which people? Is the Western conception of democracy fit for purpose? Does the Western model of democracy deliver the best results and are the Western democracies truly what they claim to be?
I’ll never forget the irony of sitting in a conference listening to the British Liberal Democrat spokesperson for foreign affairs, a certain Baroness Falkner, condescendingly regaling the audience with her tales of a trip by a British parliamentary delegation to China and how she lectured her Chinese political hosts on the superiority of British democracy and the Westminster parliamentary system compared with the one party socialist state political system of the People’s Republic. It occurred to me Baroness Falkner was hardly the best person to espouse the virtues of democracy to the Chinese. After all, here was a British politician who was unelected and unaccountable to the voting British people. The Baroness owed her position in the unelected, undemocratic House of Lords to the cronyism of party political patronage. She had not been elected democratically and sat in an institution which represents the apex of the English class system and is thoroughly undemocratic. I’m sure the irony was not lost on her Chinese hosts as well, who probably had a good chuckle and took it all in their stride.
The democratic political system places elections at the heart of its model. Multiple political parties, some with radically different world views, policies and ideologies – have to appeal to a myriad of different interest groups and constituents in order to get elected. They have to adopt positions, espouse rhetoric and vote for legislation in line with their constituents wishes. If they don’t, then they won’t get elected and if they break with the platform they stood on, once in Parliament, they probably will be chucked out at the next election. Very few Western democratic politicians actually demonstrate real leadership. Instead they spend a great deal of time and money with focus groups and pollsters trying to figure out what it is that people want their politicians to do – what will get them elected – and then tailor a marketing strategy to reflect back upon the public the voters’ wishes and desires. Once elected they spend most of their time preparing for the next election, especially in America, with its two year terms in the House of Representatives. A permanent election campaign exists revolving around the single objective of getting oneself continually re-elected and keeping favour with their local voters and special interests rather than doing right in the wider and much bigger national and global interest.
Then there is also the huge amount of money one has to raise to pay for the ever increasing eye watering sums that political campaigns in democracies cost. Therein lies a problem for democracy as well. Who do democratic politicians really represent? The regular voter or the big moneyed donor? What do donors get in return for the fat cheques they write? Cash for access? Cash for influence? The nexus that exists between donations whether from wealthy individuals, large corporations, lobbyists, outside organisations et al., raises serious questions regarding whether democratic institutions adhere to a single standard of representation or whether the democratic system is based on layer upon layer of double standards. The US Supreme Court ruling of Citizens United in 2010 removed any limit on the amount individuals or other groups can donate to political campaigns leading to the flourishing of Super PACs. Tickets at Political fundraisers in America are now sold for as high as $35,000 far more than the average years’ salary for most Americans. The amount of money the British Conservative Party raises from bankers and hedge funders in the City and the opposing Labour Party raises from Trade Unions leaves many wondering who actually makes policy in both main parties?
Then there is the power of interest lobby groups who distort the democratic political process through massive war chests. There is no better example of this than the National Rifle Association in America. It is clear for any rational and sensible thinking person that there is a massive gun problem in America and that the gun laws need significant tightening up. But despite gun massacre after massacre in the US heartbreakingly underscored by the tragedy of the Sandy Hook elementary school shooting in December 2012, the Obama administration’s push for common sense gun safety regulations fell flat on its face in the US Congress. Not even in the Senate, which the President’s own party controlled at the time, was there any movement towards enacting stringent new legislation such as back ground checks. This was due to the might of the NRA which is a major funder of many politicians’ campaigns in America – Democrats as well as Republicans. The NRA puts the fear of god into many American politicos due to its ability to make and break aspiring and incumbent Congressmen and Senators. The only politician to seriously challenge the NRA in recent memory, Mrs Clinton, can do so because of the counter weight of her own prodigious fundraising machine. These powerful interest lobbies have row upon row of offices in and around democratic legislatures such as Capitol Hill. It has been well documented the outsized power and influence on the American democratic process of such groups such as AIPAC and Noraid, lobby groups that exists to champion the political issues of foreign groups which have nothing to do with direct, sovereign American interests.
The UK referendum on the EU is a classic example of the deep flaws that exist in democracy. When asked by Christiane Amapour of CNN on the morning of the Brexit result, why this referendum was held in the first place as to much of the outside world it looked like a needless, self-inflicted wound, the then Foreign Secretary Phillip Hammond responded as if it was a no-brained: «But we are a democracy.» What appeared out of Hammond’s intellectual capacity was the fact that if Britain truly were a democracy then the referendum result would have been discarded due to the closeness of an almost split decision of 52% vs. 48%. On the basis of a 4% majority the entire country, including the significant 48% of Brits who opposed Brexit, will now be ripped out of the EU and plunged into an extremely uncertain and precarious campaign. And it was a horrible campaign with the Leave camp tapping into and exploiting the politics of ignorance, intolerance, xenophobia and latent racism much the same way as Donald Trump has been doing in America. Thanks to democracy, the United Kingdom is the most un-united it has ever been, for all the world, both friend and foe alike to see. What Hammond failed to grasp is that of all the Western democracies, the UK is the most undemocratic. There are more unelected members of the British Parliament than there are elected with the House of Lords now the largest Upper Chamber of any supposed democratic legislature in the world. Furthermore, the democratically elected MPs are not full time MPs. Incredibly, they are allowed to hold multiple outside jobs. When I worked for the Conservative MP – who at the time was the Shadow Chancellor, the Tories chief economic and financial policy maker – he was also employed by Rothschild bank as a part-time employee. Think of it: the chief financial affairs policy maker and spokesman for a major political party and aspiring Government in waiting working simultaneously for a major international investment bank and drawing a salary! Conflict of interest?
Democracy itself is no bulwark or guardian against totalitarian dictatorship. Some zealots of democracy like those in the Henry Jackson Society always point out that no two democracies have ever gone to war against each other. This is too simplistic an analysis and overlooks the fact that it was democracy – in one of the most democratic states ever designed – Weimar Germany that facilitated the growth and eventually rise of Adolf Hitler and his Nazi Party. People often forget or overlook the fact that Hitler was brought to power through a democratic election. Just as a majority of British voters rejected the post-WWII project of European unity and integration with Brexit, so too decades ago, the German people embraced the promises of Nazism, in many ways just as so many alienated and feverish voters in America are embracing Donald Trump. Perhaps it is time to stop worshipping and fetishizing Western electoral parliamentary democracy and start to learn from other political systems that do contain democratic elements but are not beholden to multiple political parties with their basis of support derived from identity and grievance politics trapped within the media and elite manipulated perpetual cycle of election after election which only serves to undermine stability, cohesion, efficiency and wise public policy making. | 2019-04-20T09:06:24Z | https://www.strategic-culture.org/news/2016/08/31/crisis-democracy.html |

When Danielle (Juliette Lewis) asked Max where he was from, he answered her with two questions of his own. Either one will suffice.
You know why the bosses chose Sam "Ace" Rothstein (Robert De Niro) to manage their casino? It was because he ate, slept and lived gambling and he rarely lost a bet. Who wants to bet on us not remembering how he got around obtaining a license?
(11) "Where do you think I'm from?" and "If I (tell) you, you gonna get mad at me?" (12) Right (13) No (14) He told him to read the book between Esther and Psalms in the Bible (The Book of Job). (15) There would have been a conflict of interest. Max got to Heller before Sam did.
(16) He wanted Sam to have a gun that was right for the size of his hands. (17) We omitted the words, "It's premeditated." They followed, "I know the plan." (18) Jim Beam and Pepto Bismol (19) Myers against Cady in a battle to see who can hold a melting flare in their hand the longest.
(20) He strapped himself to the underside of the Bowdens' car when they left New Essex.
He kept changing his job title, which prolonged the review of his application.
12. We need some help settling another argument. It involves the ticket agent that Max lied to. You could say that encounter occurred under false pretenses, but our argument would be he never claimed to be someone else. Only Danille was led to believe otherwise. Right or wrong?
13. When Danielle allowed Max to put his arms around her he did more than that. Did she back away when he kissed her on the lips?
14. The answer to this question isn't "In the dictionary." Well, it is, but it isn't. Confused? Good. Where did Max say Sam would find the meaning of the word "commitment"?
15. The Hell, you say? Tell us what he said when Sam came to him for help. He being Heller, Lee Heller (Gregory Peck).
wanted a gun, Kersek suggested a .38 snub-nosed special. What was that recommendation based on?
17. Two words are missing from the following exchange of dialogue. Tell us what they are and where they belong.
Sam: "I know the plan. It makes me an accomplice, an accessory, an abettor. It's also excessive force."
Kersek: "The only thing excessive we could do to Cady would be to gut him and eat his liver."
18. Kersek thought he was talking to the Bowdens' maid (Zully Montero) when he mentioned his father's favorite drink. Pour us a glass of the same stuff.
what Max did when he reminded Sam's wife and daughter that his mission in prison was to become more human than human.
20. You remember how Rose (Kate Winslet() found Jack (Leonardo DiCaprio) aboard the Titantic after he was locked up, don't you? She asked all the right questions. Here's the last of ours, for this quiz - How did Max find Sam's houseboat in Cape Fear? | 2019-04-24T22:08:44Z | http://lightscameratrivia.com/Cape-Fear-B.html |

One reason I love visiting these out of the way cemeteries is I know most of the dead have been long forgotten. Many graves are overgrown, hidden within shrubbery, trees, etc. A lot of the stones are broken or illegible. So I take photos of some of the more impressive or poignant graves, rubbing off lichen so they can be read – not just by me, but by anyone else who happens by. And I post the photos here, for others to see and hopefully enjoy.
Cemeteries hold life stories. If you're willing to do some investigating you can learn about the people who settled the area. Many times part of their story is etched on the marble. Those are my favorites. I love reading epitaphs, whether they're funny, sad, or simply informative. I like them all.
But mostly, I like the idea the dead and forgotten will never know someone, a hundred years or more later, read their tombstone and thought about them, wondering what sort of life they lived, what their sorrows and joys were. It's almost like keeping them company for a short while, after they've been alone for so long. That's how it feels to me, that for that brief moment someone cared enough to bend over and read the last words written about a total stranger, to pull back the weeds or right a fallen urn. Just to be there. It seems like a right thing to do.
Then I pop out from behind a tombstone, grab one of my kids with a clammy hand, and scare the living hell out of them … Kidding! If I did that they'd NEVER go to another one with me. It's hard enough convincing them as it is.
Before I close, I have to give due credit to the rest of my family for making the trek from the town up to this cemetery. They bore up well, though it was hotter than hades that day. My daughter and I, for whatever reason, thought it would be a cool enough day to wear jeans. Very much NOT a good idea. By the time I'd had my fill of photography – which I truncated out of mercy – we were all sweaty and miserable. Fortunately, the town had an ice cream shop so we could cool back down before we hit the road yet again.
I remember bonding over our shared love of visiting graveyards and cemetries! This one has produced some wonderful photographs. I too love looking at the names, imagining the lives, and how surprised they’d be that someone would be doing this years and years later.
Very evocative photos. I like visiting cemeteries, too, and sometimes tidy up.
Those look like double exclamation points on the last marker. Strange, and not very soothing . . .
P.S. Love the new look and layout! Clever and clean.
J.G., thanks for the compliment. I’m going to be too busy for a while to do the monthly banner, plus I stumbled on this way to do a wider format in Typepad. So I grabbed it. I use CSS language to customize the banner and add the side art, and voila!
Simon, you’re so fortunate having access to MUCH older cemeteries there. I love visiting cemeteries in New England, which is as old as things get here. Someday I hope to get back over the pond. I may never leave the cemeteries …! | 2019-04-24T08:27:41Z | https://bluestalkingjournal.com/2009/07/22/vacation-2009-1st-leg-pt-4-jacksonville-or-cemetery/ |

FILE: A float burns at the Great Chicago Fire Festival, put on by Redmoon Theater, in 2014.
CHICAGO (WLS) -- Redmoon Theater abruptly announced it is closing its doors permanently on Monday.
"Please know that we do not take this decision lightly or without ardent effort to conclude different," Redmoon leadership said.
The 25-year-old theater and event non-profit which had moved to a large warehouse space in Pilsen released a statement Monday afternoon that seemed to indicate financial woes as the cause behind the closure. "There is no funding model for this civic and social artistic vision," the statement read. "We've innovated new models to support our unique artistic vision. But, quite simply and quite sadly - our innovations haven't been able to keep up with our civic goals."
The company apologized to anyone who may have been inconvenienced by the unexpected closure, and reflected fondly on its decades of work in the city.
"It has been an honor to serve the City of Chicago for the past 25 years. We have been blessed to work in and with over 40 of Chicago's 77 official neighborhoods and to bring our unique brand of spectacle to some of our finest institutions; to many of the city's most revered public sites; and most importantly to some of its most overlooked neighborhoods," the statement said. "We've had the honor to work with upwards of 10,000 artists of varying disciplines and backgrounds, many of whom were emerging artists who trained at Redmoon and went on to fulfill and sustain practices outside our walls. We are proud of our effort and grateful for the opportunities."
The Chicago Tribune reports that Redmoon was having a hard time paying rent and has been cash-strapped from the controversial Chicago Fire Festival in 2014, which many considered a flop. | 2019-04-20T21:15:16Z | https://abc7chicago.com/news/1131103/ |
With 70% of all online shopping carts abandoned every day, the abandoned cart email journey is at the top of our list.
Trigger emails off abandoned cart events. An obvious one - this lets you send emails right after a customer abandons their cart.
Exclude customers who make a purchase after abandoning. Ensure that you don’t email customers who ended up making a purchase at any point in your email journey.
Set custom rules. You may want to send a higher discount to customers with a larger cart size, or send different follow ups to new customers vs. repeat buyers.
Set custom delay period. This helps you customize your journey based on your customer’s buying cycle - send emails right when you know they’re most likely to make a purchase.
Add follow up emails. If a customer still hasn’t purchased, sending follow up emails 3 and 7 days later when they may be ready to buy can have a huge impact on conversion.
Merge in Shopify discount codes. It’s an effective strategy to include a larger incentive for purchasing in subsequent emails in your abandoned cart email journey.
Revenue reporting. You’ll want to see how much revenue is generated from each email in your automation to tweak the steps that aren’t working and repeat the ones that are.
Abandoned cart filter. See an overview of how many customers have abandoned carts to get insight into what you can do to decrease cart abandonment.
Second to the abandoned cart email journey, browse abandonment email journeys keep customers engaged after they leave your site. Done right, this automation serves as a friendly reminder to keep checking out your store.
Trigger emails off browse abandonment events. This lets you send emails after a customer abandons their browsing session.
Exclude customers who make a purchase after browsing. Ensure that you don’t email customers who ended up making a purchase at any point in your email journey.
Set custom rules. You may want send different follow ups to new customers vs. repeat buyers.
Add follow up emails based on email engagement. Keep sending to customers who are opening your emails and remove ones that aren’t from your journey.
Merge in Shopify discount codes. You might want to include a discount in one of the later steps of your browse abandonment email journey to encourage customers who are still on the fence after opening your first email.
Revenue reporting. Reporting is especially key for browse abandonment automations - you’ll want to make sure what you’re sending is coming off as a helpful reminder vs. a little creepy.
One of the best ways to stand out in the crowded world of ecommerce and build long-term customer loyalty is sending thank you emails to new customers.
Trigger emails off first purchase. This lets you send emails after a customer has made their first purchase with you.
Set custom delay period. Depending on your customer buying cycle, you may want to send a new customer thank you right after the purchase is made or after the customer has received their item.
Set custom rules. You may want send a different thank you depending on purchase size.
Merge in Shopify discount codes. A great way to say thank you is with a discount code!
Revenue reporting. Essential in seeing if your new customer thank you is effective and being sent at the right time.

I just got back from Melbourne, where I had travelled to give a presentation about Autism and employment – probably the main reason I leave Canberra these days is to gee such presentations. For those who don;t know it, Melbourne is a big, beautiful city, an idiosyncratic place full of great coffee, quirky little shops and all sorts of art. A genteel sister to the more gritty and fast-paced Sydney, Melbourne was built in the 1850s on money from the Victorian gold rush, I lived in Melbourne from 1992 to 2007. I protested on its streets, lived in a number of share houses of varying degrees of squalor. I studied for eight years, made friends and penned an autobiography within Melbourne’s arms. I have a strong connection to the city, along with a lot of friends, colleagues and family members who live there. I love visiting my former hometown and this visit was no exception.
I was a little concerned prior to my trip as I had a lot of activities booked, probably mode than is wise. I comforted myself with the knowledge that I have more energy than anyone I know and probably more motivate than anyone anywhere. I had activities packed in from the moment I arrived to the day I left.
My life has taken a bit of an interesting turn in the past couple of years. I have been an Autism advocate and author since about 2005. For the first eight or so years not many people knew who I was. I had a couple of gigs which I thought were cool – a chapter in a book about Autistic experiences, a documentary which was shown on national television and a few interviews in various news media, but mostly I just went to work and wished I had a broader audience for my ideas around Autism. All this changed in 2013. I was coming off a long period of mental ill health which had threatened to finish my public service career and leave me incapable of useful activity of any kind. I had just got myself a little friend in Mr Kitty, my beautiful little mini black panther cat. I had unexpectedly won an award for leadership at work and was trying to regain my self-confidence. Out of the blue I was asked to audition for a TEDx conference. I couldn’t believe that this was real but it was and in September 2013 – on the day of an election in Australia which ushered in a new government – I delivered a presentation on Autism and resilience to around 700 eager audience members on the TEDx stage. It was terrifying and exhilarating and the best talk I had ever given. 2013 was also a literary year. Spurred on by meeting a young man on the Autism spectrum who was very limited in his independence due to low expectations of his capability by family and educators, I decided to write a book about employment for teens on the spectrum to help build confidence and knowledge around employment. The book – ‘The Wonderful World of Work: A Workbook for Asperteens’ was published without amendment by my lovely publishing house, Jessica Kingsley Publishers.
Some people I met in my travels who I gave business cards because I’m the networking ninja!

MADRID, Spain -- He is a hairdresser on the edge of insanity.
A barber in Spain is the newest internet sensation for hacking at hair with samurai swords.
Alberto Olmedo is based in Madrid. He says he got disillusioned with traditional scissors, because they don't cut hair equally.

In recent years, Romania has undergone major economic, social and political transformations. Given the significant emigration of the Romanian population and the recognition of the contributions of the diaspora, Romanian authorities are seeking to better understand this pool of talent residing abroad, which has great potential to contribute to the economic and social development of Romania. This review provides the first comprehensive portrait of the Romanian diaspora in OECD countries. By profiling Romanian emigrants, this review aims to strengthen knowledge about this community and thus help to consolidate the relevance of the policies deployed by Romania towards its emigrants.
Many countries are struggling to reconcile greater flexibility in school choice with the need to ensure quality, equity and coherence in their school systems. This report provides an international perspective on issues related to school choice, especially how certain aspects of school-choice policies may be associated with sorting students into different schools. A key question fuelling the school-choice debate is whether greater competition among schools results in more sorting of students by ability or socio-economic status. At the macro level, school segregation can deprive children of opportunities to learn, play and communicate with other children from different social, cultural and ethnic backgrounds, which can, in turn, threaten social cohesion. The report draws a comprehensive picture of school segregation, using a variety of indicators in order to account for the diversity of the processes by which students are allocated to schools. | 2019-04-21T02:30:03Z | http://www.oecd.org/publications/ |

C. E. Hutton, a Colorado-based limited liability company, today announced its strategic investment in Blockhash Group, a blockchain technology management platform.
DENVER, May 30, 2018 (Newswire.com) - Given the recent, yet rapid, development of blockchain technology and the crypto-currency market, new and unique opportunities have been steadily blooming in the investment space. The economy of old is witnessing a complete change in form, where new values are generated in the digital world and a vital role in each of these processes is executed by decentralized technologies, in which digital tokens and cryptocurrencies play an essential role.
While there are countless new and profitable investments following the blockchain movement, most private investors and a large segment of professionals do not completely understand the various cryptocurrency markets or find it difficult to distinguish between the massive variety of items for investment. For these people, it is critically important that they do not miss obvious opportunities to obtain additional income simply because they lack a handy and safe tool. In turn, crypto market professionals (i.e. traders and portfolio managers) are not sufficiently open and available to investors at large. This is why Blockhash Capital was launched.
Blockhash Capital has assembled an impressive network of those dedicated to monitoring and utilizing the rapidly growing sector of blockchain tech. This network includes advisors, entrepreneurs, and strategic partners, each of whom is committed to the idea of seeing this technology realized to its true potential. The firm is steadfast in the belief that blockchain technology is a profound and market-changing invention that offers cheaper and more effective means of moving money and exchanging assets without the risk of tampering or financial malice. | 2019-04-26T08:34:38Z | https://www.newswire.com/news/c-e-hutton-announces-strategic-investment-in-blockchain-technology-20494095 |

Joanne Peh and Qi Yuwu with their new born daughter.
SINGAPORE - It was a natural birth for celebrity mother Joanne Peh, whose daughter decided to "make her entrance" on Friday (Aug 7), two days ahead of Singapore's golden jubilee.
Her husband, actor Qi Yuwu, 38, was by her side during her 16-hour labour, during which she did not use any pain relief.
In a handwritten note penned by the parents and shared with the media, the first-time parents say that they are relishing the arrival of their daughter after "10 months" of pregnancy.
Peh, 32, wrote: "Holding my baby girl for the first time is so comforting and surreal."
Qi added : "As I saw the arrival of my daughter, as a father, I find it hard to describe my feelings in words.
"When my daughter looked at me as I held her in my arms, I've felt that we've known each other for a long time."
Peh and Qi got married last September and announced the pregnancy in January.
As the first-time parents step into their new roles, they asked for privacy to enjoy parenthood and said they would not be taking interviews for now. | 2019-04-20T10:33:33Z | https://www.asiaone.com/women/16-hour-labour-joanne-peh-no-painkillers |

Asiatic lilies planted in a patio container last summer did poorly but they redeemed themselves this year.
Lilium ‘Black Out’ opened this week, but on its own time, not mine. I had been watching and waiting, hoping it would be ready in time for ARTiculture, my local garden club’s flower show on Tuesday. Instead the flowers waited until Wednesday to reveal their deep red beauty.
Entries for flower show had to be delivered on Monday for judging on Tuesday morning.
With no lilies available (and gardenias were still just fat buds also on Monday), Paeonia ‘Madame Emile Debatene’ served double-duty. She made her debut in my Monday vase early in the morning and by afternoon she was entered in the Horticulture division of the show.
Only two flowers were entered in the Paeonia class and both were mine. Peony ‘Pink Parfait’ was my second entry. Both peonies had been cut in bud stage several weeks earlier and stored in the refrigerator. They held up very well using this technique.
The judges created a sub-class and both flowers earned blue ribbons—a fun ending to the story.
This entry was posted in garden and tagged ARTiculture, Paeonia 'Madame Emile Debatene', Paeonia 'Pink Parfait' (Pink Parfait Peony) on May 26, 2017 by pbmgarden.
Thanks! They seem innocuous but yes, your comments were going into spam. Glad you let me know Jason.
Thanks Judy. The judges were very free with the awards but even so, fun to win the ribbons.
Flowers can be so uncooperative at times! Both your lily and your peonies are wonderful. I was surprised to learn that a peony flower’s life could be extended for such a long period in the refrigerator, not that I have any peonies to try using that technique. Congratulations on your blue ribbon!
All the flowers I’d waited on to bloom in time for the show are now open, but too late for this year’s judging. I’ve used that peony trick only twice but it worked great.
Well done with the peonies! Great forethought to chill them and then get them to flower on time (not easy I’m sure). The lily is gorgeous.
Peonies were really beautiful this year so I’m glad I could preserve some in the refrigerator for the show. The lily has been great. I gave up lilies for a while because the deer love them and I didn’t want to encourage them to jump the fence. Glad I tried this red one.
I’ve given up on lilies too because of the red lily nettle that devours them, however this year the lilies that are in the garden are doing quite well.
‘Black Out’ was certainly worth waiting for.
Indeed it was. Have really been enjoying ‘Black Out’.
Congratulations! They deserved the prize. The ‘Black Out’ looks marvelous. | 2019-04-22T01:01:19Z | https://pbmgarden.blog/2017/05/26/lilium-black-out-and-articulture/ |
When women are pregnant significant changes occur in their bodies both structurally and hormonally – I should know I’ve been through it four times!
Our bodies change to adapt to the growing baby and to prepare us to give birth, but these changes mean that many of us experience back and joint pain amongst other uncomfortable symptoms.
And once you’ve given birth the stresses and strains of looking after a new born can take its toll on us too – our bodies are suddenly bending and twisting in a way that they are not used to, whilst our bodies are readjusting to life after pregnancy (just think of putting baby into a car seat) which can bring on all sorts of back shoulder and neck pain.
Osteopaths are trained to help relieve many of these symptoms and help your body prepare for the birth and beyond.
As an osteopath interested in pregnancy and post natal issues, I get a lot of referrals from local mid wives and NCT teachers. I’ve done a lot of post graduate courses that focus on this area, worked in a clinic in Oxford that focussed exclusively on pregnancy and post natal problems and have trained for 1 1/2 years as an NCT teacher. I also have a special interest in Pelvic Girdle Pain (PGP, formerly known as Symphysis Pubis Dysfunction or SPD) and am on the Pelvic Partnership expert practitioner list (for more information on the condition click here (http://pelvicpartnership.org.uk/treatment/) to be redirected to the pelvic partnership website).
If you’re suffering from any kind of pain during your pregnancy or now that you’re a new mum, don’t! Give me a call and let’s discuss how I might be able to help. | 2019-04-21T11:01:47Z | https://bucksosteopathy.com/pregnancy-and-new-mums/ |

The death of an international figure often invites a raft of revisionism: an effort to interpret the person’s legacy in terms that suit political or ideological prejudices. Recent commentary over the passing of an evangelical leader, the Reverend John Stott, exemplifies this vice, perhaps most grievously in an essay by New York Times columnist Nicholas Kristof. Whatever the intent, it was a “tribute” typical of those that degrade rapidly into mere propaganda.
The “Evangelical Pope,” the late Reverend John Stott.
A longtime Anglican minister at All Souls, Langham Place in London’s West End, Stott was one of the world’s most influential figures in evangelical Christianity over the past half-century. He was a key framer of the 1974 Lausanne Covenant, a touchstone document in the rise of global evangelicalism. He wrote nearly 50 books, and his preaching and teaching reached beyond England and the United States into the developing world. He died in July at the age of 90.
But to suggest, as Kristof and others have done, that Stott interpreted the mission of Jesus as a call to social justice — as if Christ was crucified for his jeremiads against global warming — is to belittle the heart and soul of his ministry.
For Stott, clear thinking about contemporary problems began with a belief in the Bible as God’s Word and in Jesus as his Son, come to earth to rescue humanity from its guilt and shame. In his 400-page commentary on the New Testament book of Romans, he calls this “the most humbling and levelling of all Christian truths”. Stott urged this truth upon his audience repeatedly, in every culture and country in which he ministered. He was devoted to the controversial task of evangelism — the task of persuading others that their eternal happiness depends on their belief in Jesus as their Saviour.
John Stott allowed the teachings of Jesus to transform his ideas about justice and mercy, even if it brought him criticism. It would be heartening to see more liberal elites do the same. At the very least, they might venture out of their echo chambers for a moment, if only properly to honour the dead.

Tanzania may have lost half its elephant population since 2007. It could be wiped out entirely in another seven years. While inspecting the country’s seized ivory stockpile, Tanzanian President Dr. John Pombe Magufuli ordered law enforcement officials to crack down on elephant poaching and trafficking syndicates.
A number of significant poaching arrests have been made across the country in recent weeks, and have led to the seizure of at least 50 pieces of ivory.
Last month, Magufuli visited the Dar es Salaam airport, a major transnational trafficking point, to ensure that security officials were able to detect concealed ivory.
Selous Game Reserve, for example, has lost almost 90 percent of its elephants in recent decades, but poaching rates appear to be slowing.
WWF is working in partnership with the Tanzanian government to save Selous Game Reserve from industrial threats, including poaching of elephants. A WWF study released last week found that investing in elephant conservation brings significant economic returns. In East African countries like Tanzania, for every dollar invested in protecting elephants yields back $1.78. | 2019-04-23T20:59:24Z | http://mellowswanafrica.org/tanzanias-president-renews-call-to-conserve-elephants/ |
Mosquitoes are an all too familiar summer nuisance. They are not only annoying, but they can be transmitters of the West Nile Virus, encephalitis, malaria, and yellow fever to humans, and heart worm to pets. You can take simple, positive steps to reduce this menace right at home, since many generations of mosquitoes can breed right in your own yard.
Standing water means you could be raising mosquitoes! Adult flying mosquitoes often rest in tall grass and shrubbery, but they cannot develop there. All mosquitoes need water to complete their life cycle. Mosquitoes also are not known to travel long distances from their water source.
Mosquitoes lay their eggs in standing water where they hatch in just a day or two. They can do this in water that has been standing for as little as four days. Places mosquitoes may lay their eggs are in old tires, tin cans, or other water-holding containers including birdbaths, wading and small swimming pools, ornamental ponds, clogged gutters, flowerpots or the drip plates beneath them, cups, glasses, drink cans, etc. The eggs may remain unhatched for weeks or even months until they are covered with water!
As a controlling method, residents should check their premises for standing water every two or four days and after any rainfall event, and empty any containers of stagnant water. This includes eliminating puddles of water on their property.
To reduce the risk of being bitten, if possible, avoid being outdoors in the early morning or in the evening. If you must go out, wear long-sleeved shirts, long pants and socks, and apply EPA and CDC DEET, following the instructions on the label. Check with your pediatrician before using a repellent containing DEET on small children. Also, keep windows and doors closed or covered with screens to prevent mosquitoes from entering the house.
Empty plastic wading pools at least once a week and store it indoors when not in use.
Change the water in bird baths and plant pots or drip trays at least every other day. | 2019-04-19T09:05:11Z | http://lebanontn.org/241/Tips |

Continuing tensions between Thailand's military junta, which seized power from the country’s elected government last May, and the United States, which has called for the immediate end to martial law and a return to democratic rule, has led to changes in an annual, multinational military training exercise in the kingdom.
At the Royal Thai Navy's U-Tapao airfield, this year’s exercise saw troops carry out a mock mass evacuation of Japanese, American and Thai civilians.
A devastating earthquake has struck in an Asian nation. Countries are anxious to rescue their traumatized nationals and get them out of harm's way. That is the scenario that played out at the tip of the Gulf of Siam on Sunday during the Cobra Gold military exercises.
The annual multinational drill, which has run for more than 30 years, this year involves some 6,700 participants and observers from 24 nations.
But the 2015 edition almost did not happen.
The United States took a hard look at canceling after Thailand's military carried out another coup last year. In the end, Washington decided to scale back Cobra Gold.
The U.S. canceled a large-scale amphibious landing to "focus on non-lethal activities, such as humanitarian assistance and disaster relief," officials said last year when announcing they would participate in the event.
Gregory Poling, an analyst at the Center for Strategic and International Studies in Washington, said the United States wanted to send a nuanced message to Thailand.
“It's one of still being a long term friend of Thailand, our longest-term ally in Asia, but also a sign of discontent with the coup,” Poling said.
Royal Thai Navy Rear Admiral Wannapol Glormgeao expressed relief that Cobra Gold went ahead this year. However, he lamented the lack of a maritime landing component.
The admiral said Thailand was thankful for the participating countries, saying the exercise "is useful for each country to improve relationship-building and to exchange experiences."
These simulations, he explained, are valuable for actual military operations.
The U.S. military's mission commander for the civilian evacuation drill, Marine Corps Captain Hector Contreras, agreed.
“If an actual operation comes up, humanitarian assistance/disaster relief, that type of scenario, we know we have partners in this region of the world like Thais, like Japanese, who can partner with us, strengthen our ability to help the local nationals,” Contreras said.
But will Cobra Gold put on this kind of show next year, especially if Thailand remains under military rule?
It depends, analyst Poling said.
“Washington is eager to see exactly when the [Thai] military plans to step back and is doing everything they can to try to make it absolutely clear that we're willing to balance on the ledge here for a little bit. But by late 2015, early 2016, we expect to see a return to democratic elections,” Poling said.
Proponents of continuing Cobra Gold say if the U.S. military chooses to disengage from Thailand, the junta could seek closer ties with China. | 2019-04-22T23:56:12Z | https://www.voacambodia.com/a/large-military-exercise-underway-in-thailand-despite-us-concerns/2645894.html |

George F. Kennan, a leading authority on the Soviet Union who in the midst of the Cold War became a passionate crusader for the control and abolition of nuclear arms, has died. He was 101.
The historian and diplomat, who was best known as the architect of "containment," which became the cornerstone of U.S. policy in dealing with the Soviet Union for more than 40 years, died at home in Princeton, N.J.
Kennan was an elegant writer, the author of 26 books and numerous articles. He won the Pulitzer Prize for history and the National Book Award in 1956 for "Russia Leaves the War" and a second Pulitzer in 1967 for "Memoirs: 1925-1950."
Kennan was also a distinguished scholar and a professor emeritus at the Institute for Advanced Studies in Princeton. He had been associated with the institute since 1950, much of the time with the title of permanent professor in the School of Historic Studies. Even late in life, Kennan looked the part of the diplomat: tall, slender, erect, balding and with a discreet mustache. He had a slightly ascetic appearance, and that, combined with an element of shyness, frequently caused him to appear aloof and a bit imperious.
Though Kennan was widely admired for his containment theory, it was to his immense annoyance and regret that it was his legacy.
Kennan's thoughts on the Soviet Union first drew attention in an 8,000-word telegram to the State Department that he prepared while serving as a member of the U.S. Embassy staff in Moscow. Written in February 1946, it became known in diplomatic lore as the Long Telegram.
The cable was broken into five sections, "all neatly divided, like an 18th century Protestant sermon," Kennan noted in his memoirs. The sections dealt with the basic features of the Soviet postwar outlook, the background of that outlook and its resulting impact on Soviet policy, both official and unofficial. It concluded with the implications of all this on American policy.
Kennan argued that the Soviets dismissed and held in contempt the idea that international agreements must be respected or given the stature of law. Josef Stalin and his negotiators, he believed, would invariably seek to turn all negotiations and treaties to their advantage and were unlikely to honor past agreements if they felt such treaties were not in their best interests.
In Kennan's view, this approach to foreign affairs had little to do with communism but reflected Russia's historical role in European politics.
The Long Telegram also warned of the Kremlin's expansionist ambitions under Stalin and noted that Soviet power "was impervious to the logic of reason, and it is highly sensitive to the logic of force." Equally as important, the telegram noted that the Kremlin was very likely to stand down "when strong resistance is encountered at any point."
U.S. diplomacy, Kennan concluded, must assume an active position in international politics and take on the role of "Great Power," both diplomatically and militarily, to counter Soviet expansionism.
Explaining himself in later writings, Kennan said he had been troubled since his wartime days in Moscow by the attitude of some Americans with "fatuous dreams of a happy and chummy collaboration with Moscow." He said his aim in the telegram and in earlier and later writings was to dispel "naive optimism" among certain quarters in Washington that the U.S.-Soviet alliance of World War II would assure postwar peace.
Kennan's message arrived at a time when Washington and Western Europe were becoming more receptive to the idea of a Soviet threat. Around the time Kennan's telegram was landing in Washington, Winston Churchill declared in a speech that a Soviet-inspired "iron curtain" was descending across Eastern Europe.
Details of the Long Telegram were leaked to the media and gained wide public attention. Kennan's new theories on international relations had an immediate impact. He was brought home from Moscow and installed at the National War College in the highly visible position of an expert on the Cold War. From that position he moved on to become chief of the State Department's staff for national planning.
It was in the latter role that his stature as a Soviet expert grew with the publication of "The Sources of Soviet Conduct," published in the journal Foreign Affairs in July 1947. In the article, Kennan identified his views on containment. But as head of the State Department's policy planning branch, he wanted to keep his byline secret, so he used the pseudonym "X."
The goal of this policy, Kennan wrote, was to keep a peaceful and stable world by confronting the Russians "with unalterable counterforce at every point where they show signs of encroaching."
In affecting the course of postwar policy, the article succeeded beyond his dreams. Containment soon became a major pillar of U.S. foreign policy. Kennan's authorship also became quickly known and burnished his reputation as a foreign policy strategist.
Three decades later, Henry Kissinger would note that "Kennan came as close to authoring the diplomatic doctrine of his era as any diplomat in our history."
But containment, as it was practiced, quickly troubled Kennan. He thought it unrealistic because it placed too much emphasis on military rather than political containment, and it appeared to have no limits anywhere around the globe.
In rejecting the idea of absolute containment, Kennan favored a more selective strategy that emphasized the importance of certain areas of the world to American interests, including Britain, Japan and the Rhineland in a then-divided Germany.
It was also Kennan's view, which he expressed in parts of the Long Telegram and in subsequent articles, books and lectures, that Soviet leaders were as anxious to avoid war as were their counterparts in the West. Kennan noted that Marxist theology did not require launching wars against capitalist countries and that Western strength could deter military conflicts.
"Those Western alarmists who try to persuade us that a surprise attack against Western Europe is a serious possibility unless we vastly increase our power to deter it are living in a dream world of their own and are talking about a Soviet leadership many of the rest of us have never heard of," Kennan wrote.
Words of this sort inevitably generated a hostile response. Critics -- of whom there were many -- accused Kennan of being naive about Soviet intentions.
"Kennan is an impressionist, a poet, not an earthling," said Eugene V. Rostow, former undersecretary of State in the Johnson administration.
Acheson, whom Kennan served as a top advisor during the Truman administration, said in 1958 that "Kennan has never, in my judgment, grasped the realities of power relationships but takes a rather mystical attitude toward them."
On the other hand, Kennan had a legion of admirers and even worshipers who subscribed to his foreign policy viewpoints, particularly on nuclear arms control. Kennan said that any military policy built around the use of nuclear arms was a mistake. He advocated a "no first use" policy for the United States and opposed the North Atlantic Treaty Organization's deployment of nuclear missiles in Western Europe.
One of his supporters was the late Alan Cranston, then a Democratic senator from California.
"Kennan was a leader in educating Americans on both the promise and the pitfalls of negotiating with the Soviets," Cranston said. "His commitment to facts over fears, of realism over reaction, gave hope to those who believe that with wisdom and will we can prevent U.S.-Soviet competition from producing a nuclear holocaust."
Regardless of the validity of his views about Soviet intentions, Kennan probably knew as much about the Soviet Union as any Westerner of his time.
George Frost Kennan was born in Milwaukee on Feb. 16, 1904, the son of Kossuth Kent Kennan, a tax lawyer, and Florence James Kennan. His mother died shortly after his birth.
He was educated at a military academy and would later describe himself as a boy as "an oddball, not eccentric, not ridiculed or disliked, just imperfectly visible to the naked eye."
He found refuge in literature and history, particularly Russian history. His interest in Russia was fueled by another George Kennan, a distant relative, who was an expert in czarist Russia. The senior Kennan wrote the influential book "Siberia and the Exile System" in 1891. An abridgment of the first edition was published in 1957 with an introduction by George F. Kennan.
He went on to college at Princeton and graduated in 1925. He joined the State Department a year later and entered the newly created Foreign Service School. Kennan was one of the first young Foreign Service officers to be specially trained as a Russia expert in the years before U.S. recognition of the Soviet government.
He was assigned to consulates in the then-independent Baltic nations of Latvia, Lithuania and Estonia that served as listening posts on the Soviet border. He also received intensive Russian-language instruction at the University of Berlin.
When President Franklin D. Roosevelt recognized the Soviet Union in 1933, Kennan, who was by then fluent in Russian, was chosen to accompany Ambassador William C. Bullitt to help open an embassy in Moscow.
But at the outbreak of World War II in Europe in 1939, Kennan was sent to Berlin, where he became first secretary within a year. When the United States joined the war in December 1941, Kennan was interned by the German government along with more than 125 other Americans.
Kennan's memoirs describe the period as a difficult time with no communication from Washington. But after seven months, most of the Americans were packed onto a train and sent to Lisbon, where they were exchanged for a similar party of Germans.
Kennan said the State Department did little to help its newly freed staffers and refused to grant them pay for the time they were in German custody on the grounds that they had not actually been working.
Kennan returned to Moscow three more times -- as second secretary in 1935-36 and in 1944 as chief deputy to Ambassador W. Averell Harriman. His last posting in Moscow came in 1952 as ambassador.
But Kennan was declared persona non grata less than a year later after, in what he later admitted to be a moment of carelessness, he compared life in the anti-American climate of Stalin's Moscow to his experience as a prisoner of war in Germany.
Humiliated by his expulsion, Kennan returned to the United States only to be forced to retire from the Foreign Service several months later by President Eisenhower's incoming secretary of State, John Foster Dulles.
Kennan later served as ambassador to Yugoslavia in the early 1960s for President Kennedy. But that was a brief and difficult experience, not so much with the Belgrade government but again with U.S. policymakers who rejected most-favored-nation status for Yugoslavia, even though the country had split with Moscow.
In his later years, Kennan was a vocal opponent of the Vietnam War and, at the age of 98, was critical of the George W. Bush administration's plan to invade Iraq. War "has a momentum of its own, and it carries you away from all thoughtful intentions when you get into it," Kennan told an interviewer in September 2002, six months before the invasion. "Today, if we went into Iraq, like the president would like us to do, you know where you begin. You never know where you are going to end."
Over the years, his writings were praised for their lucidity and erudition.
"For more than half a century, the diplomatic dispatches and political and historic writings of George F. Kennan have enriched the enlivened American public debates and our intellectual and academic scenes," Don Cook, a late foreign correspondent for the Los Angeles Times, wrote in 1989 in the paper's Book Review section. "It is difficult to name another American writer who has been so intellectually stimulating over such a long period, and who has commanded such constant attention on the great problems of the nuclear age."
Kennan's writings also conveyed a skepticism about the American society in which he lived.
"I am startled to note the bleakness of the impressions of my own country.... I view the United States of these last years of the 20th century as essentially a tragic country, endowed with magnificent natural resources which it is rapidly wasting and exhausting, and with an intellectual and artistic intelligentsia of great talent and originality of which the dominant political forces of the country have little understanding or regard. Its voice is normally silenced or outshouted by the commercial media. It is probably condemned to remain indefinitely, like the Russian intelligentsia in the 19th century, a helpless spectator of the disturbing course of a nation's life."
Writing in the New York Review of Books to mark Kennan's 100th birthday, Ronald Steel, a professor of international relations at USC, compared Kennan to Edward Gibbon, the 18th century historian who wrote "The Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire." "Perhaps Kennan's greatest distinction, and his greatest contribution, is as a ruefully jaundiced interpreter of the meaning of the American experience, and our dramatic, sometimes tragic confrontation with ourselves," Steel wrote.
Kennan's honors include the Presidential Medal of Freedom, the Albert Einstein Peace Prize and the Gold Medal in History from the American Academy and Institute of Arts and Letters.
Survivors include his wife, Annelise Sorenson Kennan, whom he married in 1931, and four children, Grace Kennan Warnecke, Joan Kennan, Christopher James Kennan and Wendy Kennan; eight grandchildren; and two great-grandsons.
Times staff writer John Averill contributed to this report.
The main element of any United States policy toward the Soviet Union must be that of a long-term, patient but firm and vigilant containment of Russian expansive tendencies.
The Soviet pressure against the free institutions of the Western world is something that can be contained by the adroit and vigilant application of counterforce... but which cannot be charmed or talked out of existence.
Here is a nation striving to become in a short period one of the great industrial nations of the world while it still has no highway network worthy of the name and only a relatively primitive network of railways.... And in vast sectors of economic life, it has not been possible to instill into labor anything like that general culture of production and technical self-respect which characterizes the skilled worker of the West.
It is difficult to see how these deficiencies can be corrected at an early date by a tired and dispirited population working largely under the shadow of fear and compulsion.
If, consequently, anything were ever to occur to disrupt the unity and efficacy of the Party as a political instrument, Soviet Russia might be changed overnight from one of the strongest to one of the weakest and most pitiable of national societies.
Thus the future of Soviet power may not be by any means as secure as Russian capacity for self-delusion would make it appear to the men in the Kremlin. | 2019-04-24T12:41:41Z | https://www.latimes.com/archives/la-xpm-2005-mar-18-fg-kennan18-story.html |
