5 Literary Landmarks around World
By Silvie Bertram
For 10 years the pipe-smoking, bull-running writer who penned such classics as For Whom the Bell Tolls and The Sun Also Rises lived in a quaint, colonial house on Key West. Hemingway purchased the house in 1931 while on a trip to Key West, and moved there later that year with his wife and two sons. Today, you can visit the breezy, sun-filled home and its adjacent garden while taking a guided tour on your literary road trip; the staff is happy to tell you more about Ernest Hemingway than you ever wanted to know!
J.R.R. Tolkien Collection at Marquette University Libraries—Marquette, MI
Fans of The Hobbit or the Lord of the Rings trilogy will love this one. The Raynor Memorial Libraries at Marquette University holds several documents from the celebrated Tolkien, including original manuscripts and drafts of The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings, complete with maps and artwork associated with the first printing of The Hobbit. Visitors to these library holdings will come away with new knowledge and appreciation of the feats of one of fiction's favourite writers.
Mark Twain House & Museum—Hartford, CT
No American writer has been more celebrated than Samuel Clemens, better know by his pen name, Mark Twain. Despite his celebrity status worldwide, Clemens kept a quiet family life in his large Hartford home, where he wrote many of his greatest books, including The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn and The Adventures of Tom Sawyer. Visitors can walk through the study where Clemens did his writing, learn more about the man and his life, and watch a mini-documentary by Ken Burns at the museum.
Folger Shakespeare Library—Washington, D.C.
The Folger Shakespeare Library in Washington, D.C., houses 82 copies of the Shakespeare First Folio, the text that scholars agree is the most reliable source material for Shakespeare's plays. Besides this, the Folger's collections hold examples of early printed books from the 10th to the 17th centuries, illuminated manuscripts, as well as playbills, promptbooks, and other paper performance ephemera. Those interested in the history of early English literature and art will greatly enjoy a trip through the Folger Library.
Carousel Bar & Lounge at Hotel Monteleone—New Orleans, LA
The Hotel Monteleone has seen countless literary giants walk through its doors, most notably Ernest Hemingway, Tennessee Williams, and William Faulkner. The whimsical spinning carousel bar has appeared in many films and works of fiction, including Tennessee Williams' Orpheus Descending, Eudora Welty's A Curtain of Green, and Stephen Ambrose's Band of Brothers. These and many other writers spent time drinking and dancing to live bands at Hotel Monteleone—wouldn't you like to do the same?
Edgar Allan Poe House—Baltimore, MD
Edgar Allen Poe's stories and poems have delighted and terrified readers for generations. The author of The Raven, The Tell-Tale Heart, and many other works of horror, Poe died of mysterious causes at age 40 in a small brick house in Baltimore, right at the height of his career. The house is open for visitors Thursday to Sunday each week, with rotating exhibits and guided tours available.

Family physicians treat the healthcare needs of patients of all ages, both male and female. However, we are not a pediatrician's office, so any care given to minor children will only be done at the discretion of the physicians.
Family physicians provide a full range of the most advanced and comprehensive medical care available. They give some pediatric care, as well as being skilled in women's and men's healthcare. In addition, they provide cardiovascular screening and management, geriatric services, complete care for acute and chronic illnesses, nutrition counseling and orthopedic care, just to name a few.
Simply call our office, send us an e-mail or fill out our appointment request form online. We will be happy to schedule an appointment for you. When you call to schedule your appointment, our front office staff will request some basic information from you.
Our patient demographic information is available on our web page. To expedite your first appointment, we recommend filling that out beforehand. Please arrive 15 minutes early to complete registration forms. To assist us, please bring your insurance card and a photo ID, as well as a list of any medications (we recommend bringing all of your current prescription bottles with you), vitamins and/or herbal supplements you are currently taking. If you are bringing your child, please bring his/her immunization records as well. Please also be prepared to pay your co-pay at the time services are rendered.
If you do not have insurance, we request that payment be made at the time services are rendered. A private-pay patient's first visit is $185 with follow-up appointment reduced to a charge of $85. This does not included additional services, such as labs, X-rays, or injections that the physician may order on your behalf.
After you complete the necessary registration forms, we will take some time to get you acquainted with our office. We are always available to answer any questions you may have concerning your account and/or treatment.
For the most part, Medical Doctors and Doctors of Osteopathic Medicine doctors have completed much of the same training and use much of the same techniques and technologies to treat their patients. They both have completed four years of undergraduate education as well as four years of medical education. Both choose a specialty area of medicine, and complete at least a three year residency focused on that specialty.
There are some differences between MD's and DO's. Doctors of Osteopathic Medicine are able to perform surgery, deliver children and provide comprehensive treatment for patients. In addition, they complete musculoskeletal system training, which includes the bones, muscles and nerves. This training enables them to perform osteopathic manipulations.
Contact your pharmacy and request a prescription refill. Please allow 24-72 hours for processing refill requests. Also, sign up with your pharmacy for Automatic Refills. Please keep in mind that some prescriptions may require a follow-up exam to determine the need of a refill. Additionally, due to emerging medical and pharmacy guidelines, Medical Centre of Conyers will not be able to call in refills for the following types of medications: controlled substances including pain medications, ADDH medication, sleep medication, diet medication as well as anxiety medication. For these prescriptions, you will need to see the physician.
You may also request a prescription refill on our Request a Refill page.
In order for us to transfer your medical records to another office, we need to have a Medical Records Release form signed and dated by you at the new facility you'll be treated at. This allows you to specify to whom we are able to release your medical information and for us to protect your medical information under the HIPAA regulations. Please allow two weeks to process your request.


1. Firda and I are still married. We are coming up on 12 years of marriage at the end of this month.
2. Firda became a Canadian citizen. This was back in 2011 after being in Canada for 7 years and 2 days. It took a lot of blood sweat and tears but she made it. She has the distinct pleasure of having been to every Canadian province, which is better than most Canadians. She also enjoys the winter. Check out her "I am Canadian!" post for her thoughts on becoming Canadian.
3. My parents cat Molly was put to sleep in March of this year. I didn't mention her much on this blog except in this post. Around Christmas she was having difficult with getting around. The vet told my parents that she had tumors growing and a severe case of arthritis. They medicated her for a couple of months but decided at the end of February that she was in too much pain and had her put to sleep. I miss her but she had a good life.
4. We've done a fair amount of traveling. In Canada we've visited: Newfoundland, P.E.I., Îles de la Madeleine (Quebec), the Gaspé penisula (Quebec), Yoho National Park (B.C.), the Southwest corner of Saskatchewan, and parts of Alberta. Outside of Canada we've been to Iceland (two times), and Scotland/England. For more information details/information and amazing pictures check out Firda's blog – Weblog Wannabe.
5. We are heading back to Iceland in October for our third time. Firda was contacted by a Icelandic travel agency who is going to provide us with accommodations and car for this visit. Pretty excited to properly visit Iceland again! We loved it.
6. We've seen lots and lots of great Canadian music – mostly in our hometown. Great Lake Swimmers, Trent Severn, John K. Samson and the Winter Wheat, Basia Bulat, Hawksley Workman, Amelia Curran, Royal Wood, Dan Mangan etc. etc. etc. Canadian is definitely blessed with some of the best musicians in the world!
7. My board game collection has grown exponential to the chagrin of Firda. I've been throwing around the idea of putting together a board game blog where I review games I've picked up at the thrift store – this would also be a way to determine whether want to keep the game in my collection or return it to the thrifting seas (or recycle it if the game is horrible). Still working on a way to do this.
P.S. As you'll remember I don't proof-read my entries before posting. You get what you see! I'm lame!

CBE Amends Governance Rules for Banks Board of Directors
8:03 PM November 14, 2021
The Central Bank of Egypt (CBE) headquarters, Cairo, Egypt. File Photo
The Central Bank of Egypt (CBE) announced on Sunday that it had made some amendments to the rules of governance for the formation of banks' board of directors (BOD).
This comes with the aim of strengthening governance and in line with international best practices, in a manner that ensures that the banks' boards of directors monitor the work of executive management.
The central bank stated in a letter addressed to banks, that the amendments included that the bank's board of directors should consist of an appropriate number of members who are qualified for their positions as members of the board of directors or its committees and who have sufficient understanding of their tasks with the appropriate diversity of abilities, skills, experience, and age group.
A board of directors is to represent a member from the shareholders if their total contributions represent 5% or more, and the representation of women on the bank's BOD shall not be less than two members at least.
It also included the necessity of a complete separation between the responsibilities, tasks and positions of the chairman of the board of directors and the chief executive officer (the managing director), with the same person not being allowed to assume both tasks. "The Chairman of the Board of Directors shall be a non-executive member," the letter added.
CBE explained that the amendments also included that the formation of the board should include two executive members at most, and the rest of the members shall be non-executive, provided that at least two independent non-executive members are among them.
The term of membership of the Board of Directors for a non-executive member is two cycles with a maximum period of 6 consecutive or separate years, and it may be extended for one additional term (3 years) with strong justifications and with the approval of the Central Bank.
The amendments included the necessity of taking into account that the committees of the Board of Directors should be assumed by non-executive members, and it is preferable that they be from the independent non-executive members so that one independent member may chair more than one committee except for the audit committee, while the independent non-executive member who chairs the audit committee may not chairs another committee.

MLR Press - Gay, Erotic Fiction and Romance at its Best
Traveling twenty-plus hours around the holidays was brutal. The job to upgrade all the systems technically had finished six months ago. The newest branches kept saying everything worked perfectly, but that's not what the main office discovered. There were no records, no updates, and no progress reports, just plain old nothing. Once one branch fell, the damage flowed through the rest of the branches, even the older ones. Everything collapsed upon one another like trees falling down.
Instead of waiting for the holidays to pass, give everyone a chance to enjoy themselves, before trying to untangle the mess, the CEO decided it was best to send someone to figure out what was happening. Of course the boss could enjoy his holiday at home with his family and not give a shit about traveling. Of course they placed those duties on the low-man on the totem pole.
"The idiot who tries to be the perfect employee by agreeing to all kinds of idiotic shit," Julian Tucker muttered to himself as he moved through the Denver airport on this snowy New Year's Eve night.
This was not his plan on how to spend New Year's Eve. His initial plans with his boyfriend, Carson, and their friends were to celebrate at their favorite dance club. The club held a special tails-n-boxers party for New Year's Eve. All the fellas would come in black tuxedo jackets with their favorite silk boxers.
The party took place at home in Atlanta, not Denver.
He had his favorite tuxedo jacket pressed and ready to go and paired it with a new pair of indigo silk boxers that hugged his ass. Carson had the same set-up, but his boxers were an emerald color and were sexy as hell. Instead of being at the club with Carson and others, dancing in their sexy boxers, he was stuck in another airport.
Julian left several voice mails and text messages, but Carson hadn't returned any of them. He couldn't blame his boyfriend for being pissed off at him. How could they try to have a relationship when one of them was never around? He hated being alone, stuck in different hotels, sleeping on his own, and traveling. Shit, traveling around the world all the time was exhausting and increased his frustration with this damn job. At this point it wasn't worth the damn money.
Hell, he could program and crack algorithms and codes for some other company that wouldn't ship him off to everywhere in the world.
The schedule sucked big time. The final flight and fix at a branch brought him to this point of sitting in a Denver airport during New Year's Eve. The only good point was receiving a call from the Atlanta office. The problems stopped escalating after he updated and corrected the algorithms in the Denver branch. So instead of heading up to Chicago, the main office changed his flight to home, to Atlanta.
Checking his ticket for the boarding time, he knocked back the rest of the bourbon. Leaving money on the bar, he gathered the carry-on suitcase filled with clothes he kept getting dry-cleaned and his messenger bag that acted like a traveling briefcase.
Walking through the somewhat deserted terminal toward the gate, Julian settled in another uncomfortable chair. Able to look out the wall of windows over the tarmac, he didn't like the look of the dark skies filled with heavy gray clouds and falling snow. This storm blew in yesterday while he fiddled with the algorithms, built into a massive blizzard, and hadn't let up since.
He looked up at the closest TV and found the station tuned to one of the many televised New Year's Eve parties. The party just started since the countdown clock said two hours of party time and music until the shiny ball dropped in Times Square.
There were only a few other travelers with him at the gate. The closest was a fellow in fitted slacks in a charcoal color, combined with a faded deep gray T-shirt, and a wrinkled sports coat lying across his legs. Propped in one chair, he stretched his long legs across to the opposite chair, ankles crossed over one another. Stubble covered his jaw and matched the mess of dark auburn curls on his head. With arms resting on his chest, he tucked his chin down, eyes closed, as he tried to catch some sleep. Next to his chair was a set of battered Converse sneakers and a set of mismatched luggage. Both were in a bright blue color. Julian recognized one of them as the popular spinner bags.
What caught his attention was the odd type of a well-padded backpack. He couldn't figure out the strange array of pockets. One opened from the side while another had the normal top zipper. Instead of being a plain color, colorful logos of almost every type of superhero and team available covered the backpack. He found everything from the Avengers, to Guardians of the Galaxy, Captain America, Green Lantern, X-Men, and so many others. It was an awesome array of logos from Marvel and DC Comics and included some of the smaller companies, Image, Dark Horse, and IDW.
Pulling his attention from the colorful backpack, Julian drifted back to the man and admired the long legs. He stopped at the stocking-covered feet and realized the print was tiny rainbows. He didn't think a straight man would wear those, unless he wore them for his kids. A quick check of the hands, and Julian didn't see a ring.
Nope, it looks like he bats for my side. Shit...
Why would he lust after some stranger?
Julian scrubbed his hands over his face, trying to push back the exhaustion from all the traveling and stress.
There was no reason to check out a virtual stranger when beautiful, sweet, loving Carson wanted him at home. The manager of an independent bookstore, Carson loved everything about books. Carson was always reading and often spoke about the stories he read, authors he met at different signings, and the store.
Desperate to reach Carson and reassure himself of their connection, Julian dug into the pocket of his military-detailed pea coat. He tugged out his phone and mini earphone. Tucking the earphone in place, he hit the speed-dial for Carson. He silently pleaded for his lover to answer. He didn't want to leave yet another voicemail. While he waited, he plied his fingers along the thigh-length hem of the cashmere blend coat.
"Hello," Carson said.
"Carson, hi, I didn't know if I could catch you. I have great news! I wanted to let you know I'm heading home. Things are fixed, and I'm at the airport waiting for the flight to Atlanta. I don't know if I can get home in time for the party, but I will be with you for New Year's Day. We can celebrate together when I get home," Julian said, rushing through all the news, eagerness in his voice to share everything with his boyfriend. "Where have you been? I left several messages and voicemails. Why hadn't you called me back?"
"Carson, who is it? We need to get to the club," someone else said on the other side of the line. The voice was so close and sounded like the person stood damn close to Carson.
"Carson? What's going on? Who is that?" Julian asked.
"Derek, give me a moment to deal with this. It's my ex," Carson said in a low tone.
Julian felt his mouth dry out and his voice strangled around the word, "Ex?"
The other man asked, "Is it the workaholic?"
"Yeah, I need to talk to him. Don't worry. The party isn't going anywhere. Only reason we're running late is because your sexy self is irresistible in those cotton boxers," Carson said.
There was no mistaking the throaty laughs of lovers with secrets or the shared kiss.
Julian felt his stomach flip and drop. "Carson..."
"Well, hurry it up. You know I want to dance before the ball drops," the other man said.
"I'm not letting this night go without a dance. Let me handle this, baby. We have time." Handling the other private conversation Julian never wanted to hear, Carson returned to his conversation with Julian. "Sorry about that. I figured if I didn't call back or pick up, you would get the message."
"What message? Why is there another man in our condo?"
"I can't do this anymore and I'm not at your condo."
"Can't do what?" Julian concentrated first on the relationship problem before he tried to figure out where Carson was with this other man.
"Us, this so-called relationship. It doesn't work when one of us is never here."
"Please, don't. This was a freaking fluke of computers."

In Memory of Bob Walsh, Global Citizen & Entrepreneur
We are deeply saddened to share that OneWorld Now! founding board member Bob Walsh recently passed away unexpectedly. As an entrepreneur with a big heart, Bob pioneered major sporting events grounded in the power of citizen's diplomacy, such as the Good Will Games in 1990, and he directed humanitarian efforts in the Soviet Union and later Republic of Georgia, both of which led to honorary awards.
Since the beginning of OneWorld Now! in the early 2000's, Bob has been a steadfast supporter of our aspirations to cultivate the full leadership potential of today's youth through international education.
"Bob Walsh inspired us all to go after our Vision – no matter how big and bold – and this influenced the origin of OneWorld Now!"- OWN Founder Kristin Hayden
Bob remained a firm believer in the power of everyday people to exercise citizens' diplomacy and to establish meaningful human connections across nations and borders. OneWorld Now! is proud to continue his legacy by fostering intercultural understanding both here in Seattle and internationally.
Later this year, we plan to launch the Bob Walsh Scholarship Fund to support underserved youth to study abroad and engage with peers around the world.
We will miss you dearly Bob, though your spirit will live on in our enduring mission to develop the next generation of global leaders.
Should you like to support Bob's son and his forth coming Memorial then please visit the Bob Walsh Memorial on GoFundMe.

Case 1: I don't have a fax machine and but I get fax calls at 2am, all hours, etc.
There are different devices for each problem as described in the two sections below.
Avinta Communications, Inc.: the TriVOX device requires the caller to enter a code you program. See also the comparison chart at the bottom of this page.
http://home-and-office-phone-depot.com. The FaxFirewall will only let numbers you pre-program through. Therefore, all faxes require your express consent.
Privacy Corps (www.privacycorps.com) also offers the FaxFirewall and CallerID manager. I received one email saying the the ID blocker didn't work and he had trouble getting his money back. He suggests you pay via credit card and if the device doesn't work, have the credit card company reverse the charge. He said when he did that, they became responsive.
By the way, I have been using this product now for two months. I have only gotten one junk fax. I was getting 2 -5 per week. The one that came through -- I've now blocked that number for good. Until these faxers start using Internet redirects of their phone calls, this product fixes the problem. I don't sell them, I just wanted to point this out to you.
You'd think you could use something like SBC's "Privacy Manager" (see SBC - Privacy Manager (®) - Residential - AR). Unfortunately, Privacy manager itself will not work...if the spammer provides forged callerID and changes it each time, the call will go right through since you can only block 10 numbers. Too bad...because if the phone company did it right, it would be a killer feature. So you need a service that always forces a caller to dial a code you tell the caller to dial.
http://www.intelescreener.com This is very similar to Privacy Corps' "Privacy Manager." However, it not only screens numbers, but can play the "SIT" tones as well! This fools equipment into thinking that the number is disconnected. I use this setting for ALL "Private, Blocked, Unavailable, Out-Of-Area calls."
Intelescreener can also block by number, name, area code, etc. It also has a setting where it does not allow calls to go through based on the same criteria, (name, #, etc.), the caller just hears ringing.

How Music Made Bruce Springsteen
Since before he was the Boss, he's turned to rock and roll to create order out of an anxious and chaotic life.
By David Brooks
Philip Gould / Getty
In 1943, Harry Emerson Fosdick, then the pastor of New York City's Riverside Church, published a book called On Being a Real Person. He argued that "the primary command of our being is, Get yourself together, and the fundamental sin is to be chaotic and unfocused." We are all born, he wrote, with different selves, tastes, talents, fears, competing desires, and possibilities. Over the years, our job is to integrate our many parts, which entails choosing the goals and tasks we consider most important. Three types of people, Fosdick observed, emerge from the struggle: those whose lives remain scattered and ineffectual; those who focus on a low purpose, like money or status; and those who, finding a vocation guided by a high purpose, corral their conflicting selves "sufficiently to make a concentrated impression on the world."
Bruce Springsteen's frank and gripping memoir, Born to Run, is an intimate portrait of one man's lifelong attempt to follow that primary command. People who choose rock and roll as their vocation are usually trying to break free from constraints, to smash things, to stir up a little turmoil in their souls. Springsteen entered a world of chaos and turned to guitars and amplifiers and lyrics to create order.
As a boy, Springsteen chewed his knuckles until they were covered with marble-size calluses.
Starting with Greetings From Asbury Park, N.J. (1973) and Darkness on the Edge of Town (1978) and on through The Ghost of Tom Joad (1995) and Wrecking Ball (2012), Springsteen has often written songs in the voice of the unlettered working-class outsider, which he was. Now he's a 67-year-old multimillionaire with a mansion and horses. He is a literate, artful, and even urbane writer (there is no way this book is ghosted) who has reaped the sorts of insights you get from more than three decades in therapy. He is still tortured and haunted, but he has gotten himself more or less together. The journey from obscurity to rock-and-roll fantasy is not as important in this book as the internal journey from anxious urgency to some sort of self-forgiving peace.
Born in 1949, Springsteen was the eldest of three children, and the only son, in a working-class Catholic family in Freehold, New Jersey. The house in which Springsteen spent his early childhood was literally a ruin, the walls slowly collapsing. A subsequent house lacked running hot water, so the family filled the single tub with pots heated downstairs on the gas stove; the kids took turns bathing in the same water. Family relationships lacked stability. Bruce's grandmother was devoted to him, and his mother was loyal to her brooding and unstable husband, but rules were nonexistent. At 5 and 6, Bruce was staying up until three in the morning and sleeping until three in the afternoon. He ate when and whatever he wanted. "It was a place where I felt an ultimate security, full license and a horrible unforgettable boundary-less love," he writes. "It ruined me and it made me."
In Springsteen's early music, his father is a silent presence, sitting at the kitchen table in the dark with a cigarette in his mouth, often depressed and harshly judgmental. In life, the memoir reveals, the uncommunicative Douglas Springsteen occupied the emotional foreground for an unsteady, impressionable boy. His father, Springsteen writes, spoke fewer than a thousand words to him through his childhood (and much later, after Douglas had moved away, was diagnosed with paranoid schizophrenia). On one occasion he broke down weeping in front of his son. "It shocked me," Springsteen writes, "made me feel uncomfortable and strangely wonderful. He showed himself to me, mess that he was. It was one of the greatest days of my teenage life."
Unmoored and anxious, Springsteen got the name "Blinky" in school because he blinked uncontrollably, "hundreds of times a minute." He chewed his knuckles until they were covered with marble-size calluses. Yet in his gregarious mother, a legal secretary named Adele, Springsteen saw an embodiment of willpower. "She willed we would be a family and we were. She willed we would not disintegrate and we did not. She willed we would walk with respect through the streets of our town, and we did." Not least, she got him his first guitar when he was 7 and a decade later borrowed money to help him buy a better one. His father might not talk back, or even react, but in the songs young Springsteen began to write, he was determined to speak to his father and make him at least hear his son's point of view.
The adolescent ferocity of commitment he brought to music is still fresh, and I read the first half of the book feeling inspired to rededicate myself maniacally to my work. Springsteen discovered rock as many did, first through Elvis, on The Ed Sullivan Show in 1956 (Springsteen was 6), and then through the Beatles on the same show in 1964. Night after night in his bedroom, he taught himself to play songs, falling asleep with his guitar cradled in his arms. Plenty of teenagers do that, but Springsteen was tyrannically demanding, of himself and of others. He was not in it for the drugs or the sex (though he had some sex). He was in it for the rock and roll. Springsteen fired treasured bandmates if they weren't committed enough or talented enough to go where he needed to go.
Springsteen is an exemplary version of a very humble type, the journeyman bar-band singer, but Springsteen the memoirist shows that the urgent compulsion to be not just good but great made him imperious and obsessive. From the start, sheer willpower drove his music and the stories he sang. The propulsive lift of "The Rising," which he wrote after 9/11, was there in the kid who wants to explode out of a town full of losers in "Born to Run," but it didn't come easily. Springsteen describes spending months in the mid-1970s trying to create the wall of sound that became that song. "I started out with cliché, cliché, cliché and then I caught a piece of myself and the moment. 'In the day we sweat it out on the streets of a runaway American dream …' It's a 'death trap,' a 'suicide rap.' 'I want to guard your dreams and visions.' " He knew, when those phrases finally came, that he had a great song. "A smash feels like it was always there and as if you've never heard anything like it before."
Chronologically, Springsteen belonged to the Baby Boomer moment, and Vietnam obsessions were his signature as he emerged in the '70s. But he didn't aspire to be the next Jimi Hendrix or Janis Joplin or Mick Jagger. He wasn't looking for infinite freedom or trying to break the strictures of bourgeois society. The "dreams and visions" he wanted to guard had a 1950s whiff. He was not rejecting working-class ideals but fulfilling them—more Johnny Unitas than Joe Namath. We don't need his memoir to reveal the importance to him, musically and personally, of feeling anchored to a place: That his creative roots lie in the shore towns of central New Jersey has been obvious for decades. From those communities, with their high quotient of eccentrics (is it that not so many people there had been polished by office-park culture?), he drew material for two commercially unsuccessful albums and then, in 1975, Born to Run. After that breakthrough hit, grabbing for a global audience with broad, uplifting stories would have been a natural step. He didn't take it. Darkness on the Edge of Town was a stripped-down album about people who stay home and search for identity and battle their own cynicism.
Onstage at the church services he calls concerts is where Springsteen reaches full coherence.
Springsteen's memoir exposes how agonizing his own search for identity continued to be. I found myself reading the second half of the book inspired by an energy in his later years equal to the early zeal that launched his music, only now dedicated to family. By his 30s, Springsteen had music and he had Jersey, but he wasn't sure he had a life—a life outside the studio or beyond the stage. Driving through a small town in Texas at 32—the year he was working simultaneously on the spare Nebraska and the lush pop sound of Born in the U.S.A.—he suffered a full-blown emotional crisis. "I've just pulled a perfect swan dive into my abyss," he writes. "My stomach is on rinse cycle and I'm going down, down, down."
Springsteen began therapy, probing the "mess that he was," to borrow the phrase he uses for his father. As he describes his habit of cutting off romantic relationships after a couple of years, he's clearly still wrestling with that "horrible unforgettable boundary-less love" from the past:
I wanted to kill what loved me because I couldn't stand being loved. It infuriated and outraged me, someone having the temerity to love me—nobody does that … and I'll show you why. It was ugly and a red flag for the poison I had running through my veins, my genes. Part of me was rebelliously proud of my emotionally violent behavior, always cowardly and aimed at the women in my life.
The tale of his ultimately happy marriage may sound too good to be true (and rumors to the contrary are easy to find), but Springsteen's tribute to Patti Scialfa anchors the second half of the book. His four-year marriage to the Chicago-born actress and model Julianne Phillips in the late 1980s had ended in divorce. Scialfa, from New Jersey, was a singer in his E Street Band. He recognizes how lucky he is. She is incandescent enough to live alongside a superstar, tender enough to provide patient care, talented enough to share the stage, and tough enough to endure his depression and self-absorption. Which isn't to say peace reigns. He has known better than to be a silent, brooding husband. "Back at home, Patti and I fought a lot, which was a good thing. I'd never argued much in most of my other relationships and it had proved detrimental."

Springsteen endured a massive depression after turning 60, and solving the problem of himself is work that he clearly feels isn't over. He is still trying to keep himself together by writing new music. But he sounds less desperate, less in need of escaping something. "Feeding your children," he writes, "is an act of great intimacy and I received my rewards, the sounds of forks clattering on breakfast plates, toast popping out of the toaster, and the silent approval of morning ritual." Springsteen can't resist reaching for a grander benediction: "There is a love seemingly beyond love, beyond our control, and it will take us through our lives bestowing blessings and curses as they fall."
But onstage at the church services he calls concerts is where Springsteen reaches full coherence. For the musician—as for the memoirist—that is not at all the same as bliss: "Onstage your exhilaration is in direct proportion to the void you're dancing over," he writes. He remembers one concert during which he had the sensation that things were falling apart. He was thinking about himself too much, volleying the voices in his head, instead of just performing. Yet decades later, when he went back to listen, that was the concert with extra power and resonance. That was one of the legendary shows his fans talk about and claim to have attended. "One must still have chaos within," Nietzsche wrote, "in order to give birth to a dancing star."

"Euroformula Open recreates Spanish F3 Championship"
Leigh O'Gorman	2014 Racing Season, Spanish F3	 June 9, 2014 June 14, 2014 1 Minute
The Spanish F3 Class was relaunched at Portimão. © FOTOSPEEDY.
The organisers of the Euroformula Open Series, GT Sport, have announced the recreation of the Spanish Formula 3 Championship.
The championship will be made up of the six Iberian races that form part of the Euroformula Open, including the already contested round at Portimão.
Other meetings to feature in this new class include next week's round at Jerez and the October 18-19 events at Barcelona's Circuit de Cataluña.
The reinvigoration of the category comes off the back of a desire from the RFEA (Spanish Motorsport Federation) to keep Spanish F3 alive, despite it having been renamed as 'European F3 Open' at the end of 2009.
Reflecting upon the choice to revive the Spanish F3, GT Sport CEO, Jesús Pareja commented: "We gladly responded to the wish expressed by RFEA, the Spanish Federation, not to see [Spanish F3], which we launched together in 2001, disappear, following the entry into force of the new rules regarding series using F3 cars."
Pareja also sees the recreation of the Spanish F3 title as a potential selling point for the Euroformula Open Series, which has been slightly down on entrants from last season. "I think having the possibility to compete for an extra title will be extremely attractive for the Euroformula Open drivers and teams."
Following the opener at the Algarve, Artur Janosz leads Sandy Stuvik and Alex Palou in the Euroformula Open standings; however in the Palou and Stuvik swap positions come the Spanish F3 standings. Britain's Cameron Twynham lies 4th in both championship classes.

Free Forex education. No thanks I'd rather pay. At least I can say I've been done, when it doesn't work.
allenbary: It seems funny, but I do kind of wonder sometime, I probably out trade most people, I trade month over month with over 92% accuracy. Yet with the hundreds of hits I get on my website, videos and forums. Very few ever take the time to pay attention.
There was about 4 people watching the chat session, although there is normally 1 or 2 more. On the forum there are 57 members who have joined up and only 17 have visited in January making 40 absentee's this month. I don't usually comment on the chat, as I'd rather listen and learn. If I'm in work on the day, then I go back with the charts printed off, making any relevant notes on from the chat. The forum I visit every day and contribute when I feel it is relevant. It's an unbelieveable free service Allen is giving, that few appear to want to get involved in. Maybe they would rather pay someone because they feel that there's no such thing as a free lunch. Who know's, maybe I was once like them.
Anyway I'm trading off the 70 tick charts with the 20 ema on the free ninjatrader platform that I have obtained via traderAllen's forum. I also have the 5 min chart up on ninja to confirm the trend direction with the 25 ema, partly because I'm presently half way through Bob Volman's new book.
I'm using trading view for my longer term time frame analysis. I was paying £9/month for the multichart function but have now obtained that for free. I use tradingview because of the ease of using its drawing functions and the length of backdata that I have. The monthly charts go back to 1972! I like the idea of getting the longer term charts trend directions lined up. traderAllen does this to determine risk per trade and so do several other notable educators. Shonn Campbell in his new book, " Inventory Trading," uses multi timeframe trend analysis as part of his routine. I thought I would mention Shonn, as in his book he mentions scalping his way out of losing trades and I'm hoping for us scalpers, he would go into more detail about this.
Anyway after playing around with the sim on ninja for a month, today I put on my first live trade with my old broker Oanda. I think I will eventually join up with MBTrading aswell as I've obtained the ninja software via the demo account. Also up on my screen is the ninja time and sales and the MBT level II which plays a big part in traderAlenn's scalping and which I'm yet really to use effectively.
Here's my tradingview set up. The stocc oscillator is only to point out divergence and give more confidence in a change of direction. Fibs are taken from the days swings to determine where the fib bots are coming in. Trend lines are put on the charts rather than ma's, and notable points of support and resistance also.
Here's my trading screen set up.
The Oanda 30 sec chart is only there to monitor my in trade position, hidden behind the 70 tick chart as was this scalp in the London session.
From now on I'll be journalling my progress. Don't expect too much at once. Allen says get the month done for break even to start with. It' more important to preserve capital than to take too many risks.
good luck simon. looking forward to more posts with your winning trades!

Faversham [] ist eine Stadt in der Grafschaft Kent im Borough of Swale mit etwa 19.300 Einwohnern (Stand 2011). Sie liegt etwa 70 km von London entfernt, zwischen Sittingbourne und Canterbury. Die Straße von London nach Dover (A2) führt an der Marktstadt vorbei, die in früheren Zeiten einen bedeutenden Hafen hatte.

Geschichte und Sehenswürdigkeiten

Bereits vor der römischen Eroberung Britanniens wird von Siedlungen am heutigen Ort berichtet. Die nächste geschichtliche Erwähnung findet die Ansiedlung als königlicher Landbesitz im Jahre 811 und ist weiterhin in einer von König Kenulf von Mercia unterzeichneten Urkunde genannt. Im Domesday Book wird der Ort als "Favreshant" bezeichnet. Im Jahre 1148 gründete König Stephan von England Faversham Abbey, wo er später mit seiner Gemahlin Mathilde von Boulogne und seinem Sohn Eustach IV. von Boulogne begraben wurde. Um 1260 wurde im Ort der scholastische Philosoph Simon of Faversham geboren.

König Heinrich VIII. übertrug die Abtei 1536, während der Auflösung der englischen Klöster an Sir Thomas Culpeper. Direkt nach ihrer Auflösung wurde die Abtei zerstört und ein Großteil des Mauerwerks nach Calais geschafft, um dort die Befestigungen der Stadt zu verstärken. 1539 gingen die Ländereien der ehemaligen Abtei auf Sir Thomas Cheney, den Lord Warden of the Cinque Ports, über und die Quenn Elizabeth's Grammar School wurde dort gegründet. Obwohl Heinrich VIII. die Abtei aufgelöst hatte, blieb die St. Mary of Charity Kirche erhalten. Sie hat einen ungewöhnlichen kronenförmigen Kirchturm aus dem 19. Jahrhundert, der schon weithin sichtbar ist. Der Innenraum wurde 1874 durch Sir George Gilbert Scott umgestaltet und wiederhergestellt. Scott wurde durch die Architektur der Londoner St. Pancras Station, des Außenministeriums und vieler Schulen und Kathedralen bekannt. (Sein Sohn ist der Designer der bekannten klassischen roten Telefonzellen aus den 1930er-Jahren. Einer der ersten Telefonzellen befindet sich heute noch im Fleur de Lis Heritage Centre in Faversham.) In der Kirche befindet sich das sehenswerte Grabmal von König Stephan. Damit ist die Kirche eine der wenigen außerhalb Londons, die ein Königsgrab enthält. Landesweit einzigartig sind auch die Miserikordien im Chorgestühl, eine seltene mittelalterliche bemalte Säule und ein kürzlich restaurierter Altar, der den Heiligen Crispinus und Crispinianus geweiht ist.

Die Gemeinde ist als Markt- und Hafenstadt bekannt sowie als Zentrum der Brauindustrie der Grafschaft. Sie beherbergt auch Großbritanniens älteste Brauerei "Shepherd Neame". Früher gab es dort auch Brauereien der Marken "Fremlin" und "Whitbread". Im Stadtzentrum findet man noch eine bemerkenswerte Anzahl mittelalterlicher Gebäude. Viele dieser Gebäude sollten in den 1960er-Jahren abgerissen werden, doch es entstand Widerstand in der Bevölkerung, die den Wert dieser historischen Gebäude erkannt hatte und sie erhalten wollte. Gerade der historische Stadtkern zieht viele Besucher an, die an vielen Orten Stadtgeschichte erleben können. Das Fleur-de-Lis Center befindet sich ebenfalls dort und beherbergt ein Museum und die Touristeninformation. An mehreren Tagen in der Woche findet an der Guildhall ein Wochenmarkt statt.

In der Stadt gibt es ein Kino, das noch aus den Frühzeiten des Films stammt und bis heute in Betrieb und fast unverändert ist. Auch ein Theater gibt es in der Stadt. Das Arden-Theater ist nach einem elisabethanischen Theaterstück benannt, dem Arden of Faversham, das in der Abbey Street spielt.

Im Bereich des Flusses werden in den kleinen Werften Themsebarkassen repariert und gebaut und abgedichtet. Dort haben sich auch verschiedene Künstler angesiedelt, die insbesondere zu Zeiten des Canterbury Festivals im Herbst ihre Ateliers öffnen.

Während des Ersten Weltkriegs gerieten die Brauereien in eine Krise. Einerseits stagnierte der Absatz und andererseits verließen die Arbeiter die Brauerei um in der besser bezahlten Sprengstoffindustrie zu arbeiten.

In dem ehemaligen Kinderhospital "Kennaways" leitete Hanna Bergas von Mitte 1939 bis in den März 1940 eine Dependance der Bunce Court School.

Die Sprengstoffindustrie

Schießpulver
Faversham wird als die Wiege der Sprengstoffindustrie Großbritanniens bezeichnet. Die erste Schwarzpulverfabrik wurde bereits im 16. Jahrhundert eröffnet. Es gibt Hinweise, dass sogar die Mönche von Faversham Abbey Betreiber dieser Fabrik waren. Durch ihre Ländereien und finanziellen Möglichkeiten war das Kloster in der Lage in zukunftsträchtige Technologien zu investieren.

Die Stadt lag ideal für eine derartige Industrie. Sie lag an einem Fluss, der aufgestaut werden konnte, wenn Wasser für die Fabrikanlagen gebraucht wurde. Das Umland der Stadt war flach und eignete sich so gut für die Anpflanzung von Erlen und Weiden, die zur Herstellung von Holzkohle gebraucht wurden, einem der drei wichtigsten Bestandteile des Schwarzpulvers.
Über den Fluss konnte eine weitere wichtige Zutat, der Schwefel importiert werden und das fertige Schwarzpulver konnte darüber in die Pulvermagazine an der Themse transportiert werden. Auch die Nähe zum europäischen Festland war vorteilhaft, so dass in Kriegszeiten der Nachschubtransport einfach war.
Die ersten Fabriken waren klein und lagen in Stadtnähe am Fluss.
Im frühen 18. Jahrhundert hatten sich die kleinen Fabriken zu einer einzigen großen zusammengeschlossen, die später als Home Works bekannt wurden.
1759 wurde die Fabrik verstaatlicht und modernisierte in diesem Zusammenhang alle Maschinen. Aus dieser Zeit stammt auch die Chart Gunpowder Mill, die heutzutage nicht mehr in Betrieb ist und 1966 in ein Museum umgewandelt wurde.

Eine weitere Fabrik wurde von eingewanderten Hugenotten gegen Ende des 17. Jahrhunderts gegründet, die Oare Works. Diese Fabrik wurde Hauptlieferant für die Britische Ostindien-Kompanie.

Die dritte und letzte Sprengstofffabrik waren die Marsh Works, die von der britischen Regierung 1787 nordwestlich der Stadt am Oare Creek gegründet wurden, da die Home Works nicht genug produzieren konnten. 1934 schlossen alle drei Fabriken, da ein Krieg mit Deutschland drohte und der Standort bei Faversham Luftangriffen und Invasionen zu schutzlos ausgeliefert gewesen wäre. Die Produktion wurde daraufhin nach Ardeer in Schottland verlegt.

Schießbaumwolle
Nachdem Dr. Christian Friedrich Schönbein 1846 die Schießbaumwolle entdeckt hatte, wurde sie von den Marsh Works unter Lizenz ab 1847 hergestellt. Da man noch unerfahren im Umgang damit war, kam es bereits im gleichen Jahr zu einer Explosion, bei der 18 Personen starben. Daraufhin wurde die Fabrik wieder geschlossen. Bis 1873 ruhte die Produktion, bis die Cotton Powder Company in Uplees, 4 km nordwestlich der Stadt erneut eine Fabrik errichtete.
Die Fabrik wuchs schnell und kurz vor Beginn des Ersten Weltkriegs bedeckte sie ein Areal von 2 km² mit eigenem Kraftwerk, hydraulischen Anlagen, interner Telefonanlage und Bahnsystem. Das Gelände war in etwa so groß wie die City von London.

Bei Beginn des Ersten Weltkrieges wurden die Fabriken unter die Verwaltung der Admiralität gestellt und bewaffnete Posten bewachten das Gelände. Die Produktion wurde weiter erhöht und die Anzahl der Arbeiter stieg. Längst konnten die erforderlichen Arbeiter nicht mehr nur in Faversham angeworben werden, sondern kamen aus der gesamten Grafschaft. Um diese Arbeiter zu transportieren, baute die Admiralität eine Schmalspurbahn zwischen Davington und Uplees.

Am Sonntag, den 2. April 1916 kam es zu einer folgenschweren Explosion, als ein Lager mit TNT explodierte. Es kam zu Folgeexplosionen und insgesamt starben 115 Menschen, sieben Tote konnten nie gefunden werden. Nach dem Ersten Weltkrieg schloss die Fabrik und die Schmalspurbahn wurde abgebaut. Die Lokomotiven wurden nach Südamerika verkauft, wo eine noch heute Dienst tun soll.

1924 wurden auf dem Gelände der ehemaligen Abtei von der Mining Explosives Company die Abbey Works errichtet. Auch hier kam es 1939 zu einer Explosion, woraufhin die Betreiber die Produktion von Sprengstoff auf Kohlesäurekartuschen umstellten. Bis heute gibt es diese Fabrik, die unter dem Namen Long Airdox firmiert. Auf den übrigen Fabrikbrachen werden bis heute verschiedene Bodenschätze abgebaut. Die Fabrikgebäude wurden bis auf Chart Mill abgerissen. Das Gelände der Oare Works wurde als Landschaftspark ausgebaut.

Temperaturrekord
Faversham hielt ab August 2003 mit 38,5 Grad Celsius einige Jahre den Rekord der höchsten Lufttemperatur, die jemals in Großbritannien gemessen wurde. Im Verlaufe einer europaweiten Hitzeperiode wurde dieser Wert am 25. Juli 2019 im Botanischen Garten der Universität Cambridge mit 38,7 Grad übertroffen.

Regierung und Verwaltung
Faversham liegt im Parlamentswahlbezirk "Faversham and Mid Kent". Seit 2015 wird dieser Wahlbezirk durch die konservative Abgeordnete Helen Whately vertreten.

Für die Wahlen zum Borough Council des Borough of Swale ist Faversham in vier Wahlkreise (Abbey, Priory, St Ann's und Watling) aufgeteilt. Die vier Wahlkreise schicken sieben Abgeordnete in den Council. Seit den Wahlen 2019 werden fünf Ratssitze von Mitgliedern der Liberal Democrats und zwei von Labour-Mitglieder gehalten.

Beschäftigung
In der Stadt sind eine überdurchschnittlich hohe Anzahl der Einwohner in der Landwirtschaft und im Baugewerbe beschäftigt, während vergleichsweise wenige im Finanzwesen, der Verwaltung und im Gastronomiegewerbe beschäftigt sind.

Die Arbeitslosenquote liegt bei 2,7 %, im Gegensatz zum nationalen Durchschnitt von 3,4 %.

Verkehr
Von Faversham fahren Züge nach London Victoria Station. In umgekehrter Richtung führen Linien über Canterbury Eastern nach Dover Priory sowie nach Ramsgate und Margate.

Seit 2009 verbindet Southeastern unter dem Label Southeastern Highspeed den Bahnhof Faversham via Chatham Main Line, North Kent Line und High Speed 1 mit Ebbsfleet International, London-Stratford und St. Pancras International.

ProSmoke electronic cigarettes are available with cartridges with differing amounts of nicotine. When first starting on electronic cigarettes, many users wonder what level of nicotine they should opt for with their cartridges. The answer to that question varies depending on how much you currently smoke tobacco cigarettes. Also, it should be noted that electronic cigarettes cartridges are designed to last the equivalent of multiple cigarettes and are not meant to be smoked completely in one sitting.
As you can see, electronic cigarette cartridges contain much higher amounts of nicotine because they are not meant to be smoked completely in one sitting. Which nicotine level you choose depends on your personal preference and how you foresee smoking the eCigarette.
Brand names on this page are property of the affiliated trademark owners and in no way associated with ProSmoke or its products and services.
In practice, you can smoke an electronic cigarette as long or as short as you want. So, perhaps the more pertinent question to ask is not how much nicotine each cartridge contains, but rather how you plan to smoke your electronic cigarette. Personally, I smoked Parliament Lights and found the medium strength cartridges (12 – 16 mg) allowed me to smoke for the same amount of time I would with a tobacco cigarette and get the same feeling. I've heard from others who used to smoke full-strength cigarettes, such as Marlboro Reds, that the full-strength cartridges are more akin to what they're used to.
However, if I was looking to spend less time smoking without sacrificing nicotine, I could have purchased full-strength cartridges and only taken a couple of hits during each smoke break. Because electronic cigarette cartridges are not designed to be finished in one sitting, and you don't have to worry about finishing a full cigarette during each break, you can get a higher nicotine content cartridge and smoke less than you did with tobacco cigarettes and get the same satisfaction.
We use VG solution as our base across all of our nicotine levels. We also have numerous articles talking about why VG is best in our knowledge-base here!

Hurt by a big drop in trading revenue, Citigroup reported a 37 percent slide in second-quarter profit to $2.7 billion, or 9 cents a share, compared to $4.28 billion, or 49 cents, a year ago.
Citigroup results topped Wall Street expectations of 5 cents a share, but a murky outlook pushed shares lower Friday for the No. 3 U.S. bank by assets.
Citi's revenues declined $3.4 billion to $22.1 billion in the second quarter.
However, provisions for credit losses declined $2.billion, compared to the previous quarter, to $6.7 billion – the lowest level since the third quarter of 2007, reflecting continued improvement in credit quality, Citigroup said.
Citi – along with top competitors JPMorgan Chase and Bank of America – are grappling with lower revenue expectations, as banking reform laws and consumer fee restrictions take fuller effect in the second of 2010 and into next year.
Citigroup, as with its rivals, also took a hit from investment trading revenue – a source of positive earnings in recent quarters. For the second quarter of 2010, Citi's trading revenue fell more than one-quarter, driven lower by fixed-income and equity markets.
"Although economic conditions remain challenging and global regulatory frameworks are uncertain, we believe these results demonstrate that the difficult decisions made by our management team have put in place all the elements for sustained profitability," concluded Vikram Pandit, Citi's chief executive officer.

NANA Glen's favourite farmer is gifting the Coffs Coast a one-off holiday treat.
Russell Crowe is returning to his hinterland home and bringing with him some very talented friends.
Come check out some new footage for Darren Aronofsky's biblical epic, Noah. The film stars Russell Crowe ("Man of Steel"), Jennifer Connelly ("The Hulk") and Emma Watson ("Harry Potter").
Former Bond girl Olga Kurylenko has been cast opposite Russell Crowe in his upcoming directorial debut The Water Diviner. The Oscar-winner's film is billed as an epic adventure set after the end of WW1, with an Aussie father searching Turkey for his three sons, supposedly lost in the battle of Gallipoli.
Russell Crowe will play a novelist stricken by mental illness in forthcoming movie 'Fathers and Daughters'.
The 'Man of Steel' actor will portray a novellist stricken by mental illness struggling to raise his five-year-old daughter in New York, with the story also focusing on the girl's life in the present day, as a 30-year-old Manhattan woman battling the effects of her troubled upbringing.
There is one nagging question about the movie that should one day be made to tell the tale of the fabulous Burgess boys. Who would play Russell Crowe?
Digital entertainment curator FilmBuff previously announced that they would release the Russell Crowe-narrated documentary RED OBSESSION on VOD September 6 with exclusive theatrical engagements in New York and Miami with additional markets such as Los Angeles and San Francisco to follow.
For years now, Russell Crowe has been saying he's ready to direct a film, but despite getting in some experience with video shorts and the documentary about his band, nothing has worked out. It seems he's closer than ever with his latest attempt, Battle of Gallipoli tale The Water Diviner, which he's in pre-production on and may end up starring in.


So many of us get stuck comparing or thinking about our child's development as it relates to his/her typically developing peers.This is a normal and understandable approach. We want our children to be able to navigate the world much like their peers and as quickly as possible. In the toddler years when a child has been diagnosed with CP, many of us look for signs for how our kids are developing and how much help they may need going forward. It can be a bit scary to see an ever increasing gap between what is typically expected and what you see your child doing. Out of a need for self-preservation I stopped calculating and trying to think of ways to make Maya's development match up more closely with her same aged peers. I now keep goals in mind, but I have learned to relax my mental grip on the timeline. This has freed me emotionally and allowed me to move into a place of further acceptance of Maya's challenges (or perhaps the acceptance came first and allowed me to do this). By relaxing my attachment to a certain timeline, I was able to breath easier and begin to work through my fear and anxiety separately, rather than having them become entangled in how I structured Maya's therapies and practice time (my fear and pain was ultimately being channeled into how I structured her daily routine). Now, I feel grateful and pleasantly surprised as new skills emerge without the drilling and constant pressure associated with trying to force Maya to attain skills when she isn't ready. It's not easy to work through these pieces, and to know how much to push your child and when, but as you gather more awareness of what motivates you in your interactions with your child, you will have more clarity.

text:
Alwin Friedrich Schauer (* 17. April 1891 in Schirgiswalde; † 14. Januar 1958 in Hermannsburg bei Celle) war ein deutscher evangelischer Theologe und Neuorientalist. Von 1947 bis 1950 war er der erste Akademieleiter der Evangelischen Akademie Baden in Bad Herrenalb.

Leben und Beruf
Nach der Gymnasialzeit und Abitur 1910 in Dresden studierte Schauer 1910–1914 Theologie und neuorientalische Philologie in Leipzig und Göttingen.

Von 1914 bis 1918 nahm er am Ersten Weltkrieg teil, ab dem 1. Dezember 1915 als Leutnant der Reserve, zuletzt als Dolmetscheroffizier für Türkisch und Persisch. Er verlor bereits im April 1915 in dem Ort La Ville aux Bois, Champagne, sein linkes Auge durch eine Schussverletzung beim Flicken eines Drahtverhaus. Schon während des Ersten Weltkriegs übte Schauer für ein Jahr die Vakanzvertretung an der St.-Thomä-Pfarrstelle in Soest aus.

Nach Kriegsende war er 1919–1920 Mitarbeiter im Evangelisch-Lutherischen Zentralverein für Mission unter Israel in Leipzig. Am 18. August 1920 heiratete er Helga von Harling, mit der er drei Söhne hatte; zwei von ihnen fielen im Zweiten Weltkrieg. Am 10. August 1920 promovierte er in Leipzig zum Dr. phil. mit der Dissertation Der türkische Dichter Mehmed Akif nach seinen "Safahat" dargestellt.

1920 trat Schauer seine erste Stelle als Pfarrer in Molthainen (Ostpreußen) an, die er bis 1929 innehatte. 1929–1933 war er Provinzialjugendpfarrer von Pommern in Stettin. Als Mitglied der zur Berneuchener Bewegung gehörenden Michaelsbruderschaft beteiligte er sich aktiv am Widerstand gegen das Dritte Reich. 1933 schloss sich Schauer einer ersten Protestbewegung, der Jungreformatorischen Bewegung gegen die Deutschen Christen, an. Er wurde Leiter dieser Bewegung in Pommern, wenig später wurde er auch Landesleiter des sogenannten Pfarrernotbundes. Dabei lässt sich Schauers "innerkirchlicher Standort" eher mit geistlich-spirituell beschreiben als dem Spektrum der kirchenpolitischen Gruppierungen zuordnen. 1934 wurde er Pfarrer im vorpommerschen Pütte. Aus politischen Gründen sollte er schon wenig später in das ostpreußische Popelken (1938–1946: Markthausen) im Kreis Labiau strafversetzt werden. Nachdem die Versetzung Anfang 1935 für ungültig erklärt wurde, konnte er bis 1937 weiter in Pütte bleiben. Schauer arbeitete im Bruderrat der Bekennenden Kirche Pommerns mit, zog sich aber schon 1936 aus dem Kirchenkampf wegen theologischer Differenzen mit Dietrich Bonhoeffer zurück. Von 1937 bis 1946 war er Direktor des Predigerseminars Soest, das am 5. Dezember 1944 durch einen Bombenangriff zerstört wurde.

Im Zweiten Weltkrieg war Schauer von 1939 bis 1945 Offizier und tat seit 1940 Dienst in Oslo/Norwegen. Er war der Adjutant des späteren Ministerpräsidenten von Schleswig-Holstein, Theodor Steltzer. Schauer stand ebenso wie Steltzer, der am 1. August 1944 von der Gestapo festgenommen wurde, auf der Seite des Widerstands gegen den Nationalsozialismus in Norwegen. Der Norwegische Widerstand, genannt "Heimatfront" (Hjemmefronten), würdigte insbesondere seine Beteiligung an der Befreiung von Alexander Johnson aus dem Konzentrationslager Grini im April 1944. Johnson, damals Leiter der christlichen Studentenbewegung, später Bischof in Hamar, gilt als eine der wichtigsten Personen des Widerstands in der norwegischen Kirche. Nach seiner Zwangsverabschiedung als Offizier gelang Schauer im April 1945 die Flucht nach Schweden, wo er um Asyl nachsuchte. Bis Ende November 1946 lebte er als politischer Flüchtling in Sigtuna (Schweden).

Nach seiner Rückkehr nach Deutschland war Schauer 1947 zunächst an der Lutherkirche in der Karlsruher Oststadt tätig. 1947 wurde er zum ersten Leiter der Evangelischen Akademie Baden in Bad Herrenalb ernannt. 1950 musste er aber wegen schon länger vorhandener Meinungsverschiedenheiten mit dem Landesbischof Julius Bender die Akademiearbeit aufgeben. Er war dann bis zu seiner Pensionierung 1954 Pfarrer in Mühlbach in Baden.

Die Stadt Soest ehrte Schauer, indem sie den Friedrich-Schauer-Weg nach ihm benannte.

Drain the grabanzos. (You can use the juice in place of the water, but I don't like the flavor as much.) Put garbanzos in food processor or blender and blend/process until pureed. Add tahini, onion, garlic, lemon juice and salt. Process again until very well mixed. Add water a little at a time until the consistency is pleasing to you (some like it thicker than others do).
Chill for about an hour or so, if desired.
Serve in a shallow bowl with "some" olive oil poured over it and finely sliced (lengthwise) spring onions on top as a garnish.
Dip pita bread and eat - yummm!

Poverty in Rochester
How we'll reduce poverty
Ending Poverty
The Rochester-Monroe Anti-Poverty Initiative (RMAPI) is a multi-sector community collaborative with a goal to improve quality of life by reducing poverty and increasing self-sufficiency.
The Rochester-Monroe Anti-Poverty Initiative (RMAPI) is a multi-sector community collaborative with a goal to improve quality of life by reducing poverty and increasing self-sufficiency. To do this, RMAPI is focused on:
increasing income
making basic needs more affordable and accessible
lowering concentrations of poverty
Pervasive, long-standing, deeply rooted poverty is the greatest crisis the Rochester area has ever faced. Without a new approach, it will continue to get worse. RMAPI has brought together a coalition of the willing, organizations and individuals from across all sectors working together to change the systems that create and perpetuate poverty.
What Guides Us
RMAPI's work began in early 2015 with extensive community engagement, research and a rigorous design process that created a roadmap for addressing poverty. Through this work, RMAPI identified three key principles to inform the work going forward and serve as a guide for community decision-making:
Addressing Structural Racism
Addressing Trauma, and
Building and Supporting Our Community
RMAPI serves as the guardian of these Guiding Principles, spreading them across our community and helping coalition members adopt them within their own organizations.
