Thank you to Vicky for this one, which was totally new to me.
Below a poem by Ted Hughes who used a lot of animal symbolism in his poetry.
Yorkshire-born Hughes (1930-1998) was Poet Laureate from 1984 until his death. Apparently he was second choice to Philip Larkin who had declined the position.
Glad to be able to introduce you to one of my favourite poems.
It one that often goes around in my mind, when despairing at the human race.
Always happy to read something new and different. And of course it reminded me of his war poetry. I'd thought Whitman was more modern (probably because of the Vaughn Williams music on American war poetry page) so was surprised to see that he was so much of an old timer. A good poet.
By Category – yuppers – will come back and read – internet connection these days is wonky: on again off again. Tediously slow sometimes due to frequent drop outs, and when it works is lightening fast, so excuse my lack of active responsiveness.
No rush, I won't be updating too often now it is set up, just as and when.
Then I was talking to the people who work in the petting zoo – they come and get the chicks and take them back to the farm till they are big enough to roam about with Mom and Pop – and she told me that hen had delivered 5 eggs, all of which hatched. Only 2 have survived the summer. One was stepped on by Mom and killed when it was just a wee thing, the other two were eaten by the racoons.
This is long enough to be a blog post. How come I don't write stuff like this on my blog? Huh?
I should have done English lit at Uni instead of theatre….
I do too. I should explore more of his poetry, I only knew the war poetry (over on the American war poetry page) and that was through music. I think he deserves a niche of my time at some point.
He's definitely spending time with.
Thanks for this – Walt Whitman's poem is stanza number 30 something from Song Of Myself – a work that established the ego I in modern poetry some say. Poetry was never the same again.
Ted Hughes from here Yorkshire UK was of course married to the tragic Sylvia Plath – he wrote many poems about animals – some great,others so so in my humble opinion – try Thought Fox, View of a Pig,Pike, Thrushes, and his Crow series is memorable.
All poets romanticise the flora and fauna – how could they not? Neruda is another poet with great animal poetry to his name but Rainer Maria Rilke wrote some stunning stuff, well worth dipping into.

Q: What does int(n) for n mean? In order to put the input into a list:
  numbersList = [int(n) for n in input('Enter numbers: ').split()]

Can someone explain what does 'int(n) for n in' mean?
How do I improve this question?

A: The entire expression is referred to as a List Comprehension. It's a simpler, Pythonic approach to construct a for loop that iterates through a list.
https://www.pythonforbeginners.com/basics/list-comprehensions-in-python
Given your code:
numbersList = [int(n) for n in input('Enter numbers: ').split()]

Lets say you run the code provided, you get a prompt for input:
Enter numbers: 10 8 25 33

Now what happens is, Python's input() function returns a string, as documented here:
https://docs.python.org/3/library/functions.html#input
So the code has now essentially become this:
numbersList = [int(n) for n in "10 8 25 33".split()]

Now the split() function returns an array of elements from a string delimited by a given character, as strings.
https://www.pythonforbeginners.com/dictionary/python-split
So now your code becomes:
numbersList = [int(n) for n in ["10", "8", "25", "33"]]

This code is now the equivalent of:
numbersAsStringsList = ["10", "8", "25", "33"]
numberList = []
for n in numbersAsStringsList:
    numberList.append(int(n))

The int(n) method converts the argument n from a string to an int and returns the int.
https://docs.python.org/3/library/functions.html#int

A: For example input('Enter numbers: ').split() returns an array of strings like ['1', '4', '5']
int(n) for n in will loop throug the array and turn each n into an integer while n will be the respective item of the array.

A: let us try to understand this list comprehension expression though a simple piece of code which means the same thing.
nums = input('Enter numbers: ') # suppose 5 1 3 6

nums = nums.split() # it turns it to ['5', '1', '3', '6']

numbersList = [] # this is list in which the expression is written

for n in nums: # this will iterate in the nums.
    number = int(n) # number will be converted from '5' to 5
    numbersList.append(number) # add it to the list

print(numbersList) # [5, 1, 3, 6]

Three friends open the Butchertown Grocery, a culinary and entertainment venue where the community can get its collective groove on.
Quantum mechanics established long ago that one person could not exist in two places at the same time, but Chef Bobby Benjamin still had to learn this lesson the hard way. Benjamin was the executive chef at La Coop until the downtown restaurant closed in 2014. He then found himself working at Union Common in Nashville while his wife, Hannah, and their baby daughter, Copeland Pearl, stayed in Louisville. When Benjamin was in one city he often found himself thinking about what was going on in the other one. This dilemma was solved at the end of 2015 when Benjamin opened the Butchertown Grocery with attorney Jon Salomon and musician Patrick Hallahan, the drummer for My Morning Jacket.
For their part, Salomon and Hallahan are equally ecstatic that they get to collaborate with a chef whose skill they have long respected. The pair became friends with Benjamin when he was at La Coop. Salomon, an attorney at Tachau Meek PLC, made a point to stay in touch with the chef when he traveled to Nashville on business. After learning about the conflict between Benjamin's work and family lives, Salomon realized it was an opportunity to create the music and dining venue that he and Hallahan had talked about for years.
Benjamin grew up in Rhode Island and Tennessee, and first came to Louisville to attend the culinary program at Sullivan University. After graduating he cooked at restaurants in Santa Monica, Beverly Hills and Nashville, where he worked with celebrated chef Sean Brock. He moved back to Louisville six years ago to work at The Oakroom in the Seelbach Hilton. After three years there, Benjamin was hired by Falls City Hospitality Group, the company behind Doc Crow's, La Coop and Union Common. He quit in January 2015 to begin working on the Butchertown Grocery.
The new restaurant and bar is located at 1076 E. Washington St., the former site of The Blind Pig and the speakeasy Meat. In the late 1800s, the building housed Gunkel's Grocery Fresh Meat & Produce. The restaurant's name and décor, designed by Bittners, reflects this legacy. The dining room downstairs features shelves of dry goods along with exposed red brick and wood. A "Gunkel's" sign is also painted on the brick wall behind the bar. Benjamin finds the atmosphere inspiring.
When it comes to the food, the Butcher-town Grocery is both a culmination of Benjamin's career and a proving ground for his evolution as a chef. He intentionally kept the restaurant's initial menu small so he could develop it gradually to reflect the desires of his patrons and his own culinary vision. There are some old favorites from La Coop and a few dishes that Benjamin added simply because he liked them himself.
The kitchen features a rotisserie from France because the chef enjoys eating rotisserie chicken. The bird served at the Butcher-town Grocery is stuffed with lemon, thyme and garlic the day before it is roasted. Then the chef rubs Spanish olive oil and other spices onto it before the bird goes to the rotisserie. The result is a chicken that is crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside. It is served with a grilled lemon and roasted carrots.
Benjamin is also planning to add other La Coop favorites like escargot and crab cakes to the menu at the Butchertown Grocery because of diner requests. The restaurant is also offering a 7-course Chef's Table on a regular basis, where Benjamin will serve specialty dishes that will be paired with wine.
Former patrons of Meat will recognize the dark red walls and reclaimed wood upstairs at the Butchertown Grocery. Another familiar element is beverage director Marie Zahn, who worked in the same capacity at Meat. Zahn has tailored specific cocktail menus for the dining room and the bar upstairs to give patrons a different experience in each area. The biggest change upstairs is the addition of a glassed-in cheese and charcuterie kitchen. Wednesday through Sunday, late night patrons can order from a limited menu between 8 p.m. and 3 a.m. There is also a room available for private parties in addition to the main bar, which has been expanded since the days of Meat. Rather than thinking of the upstairs and downstairs as separate spaces as the former tenants did, the owners of the Butchertown Grocery want the two areas to complement one another.
Although Salomon and Hallahan spent years daydreaming of a music and dining venue like the Butchertown Grocery, this was the first time either of them had been involved in opening a restaurant. But they do have some experience in the business. Before he took to the road with My Morning Jacket, Hallahan spent 10 years working as a busser and food runner in local restaurants like Porcini's Restaurant and Buckhead Mountain Grill. Salomon is originally from Lexington. He worked as a server and dishwasher before earning his law degree.
Salomon moved to Louisville in 2008 after spending 10 years in New York City. He met Hallahan soon after, and the two became fast friends. The idea for the Butchertown Grocery grew out of Hallahan's touring schedule and Salomon's frequent travels for his job. Each of them saw things in other cities that they felt were lacking in the Louisville market.
The bar is already getting a reputation as a place where anything can happen. During the holidays, Hallahan put together a show with a few of his friends. The makeshift band performed music from "A Charlie Brown Christmas." By the end of the night, Mayor Greg Fischer was serenading actress Jennifer Lawrence and My Morning Jacket vocalist Jim James.
Hallahan and Salomon admit that for them one of the big perks of the Butchertown Grocery is that they get to eat Benjamin's food on a regular basis. Hallahan's favorite at the moment is the short rib, which comes with cauliflower, grapes and jalapeño. Salomon leans toward the Grocery steak, a bone-in, 55-day dry-aged ribeye served with black truffle béarnaise. He had to stop ordering the gnocchi with mushrooms, Parmesan and herbs, because he was getting too predictable.
The Butchertown Grocery plans to feature music in its upstairs bar every weekend in some capacity. The owners also plan to do pop-up shows on a regular basis. Salomon said there also will be a few fundraisers to support local charities.

End the secrecy
As long as the state is collecting data on the response times of emergency medical service runs by fire departments throughout Ohio, that information should be public.
Instead, since 2002, while the Ohio Emergency Medical Services Agency has required fire departments to report their EMS response times, state law says information about individual departments can't be released to the public. The agency releases only countywide average response times, a meaningless aggregation, because response times among departments could vary widely.
How fast an ambulance can get to you when you're having a heart attack or other medical emergency is one of the most meaningful ways to gauge the effectiveness of an EMS operation. For people with certain medical conditions, it could pose a life-or-death difference in deciding where to live.
At minimum, the public could use that information to judge the performance of the local fire department and to decide whether to vote for a new tax levy to support it. Publication of response times would spur improvements in departments with below-par performance.
Instead, the state requires fire departments to go to the time and expense of compiling and submitting data but then does little with it.
Why the legislature wrote secrecy into the EMS law is a mystery. The state has collected information on fire-run response times since the 1980s, and that information always has been public. Many fire departments voluntarily give out their response times to anyone who asks.
But a statewide database, allowing comparisons among departments and tracking of trends, would be far more useful.
Regardless of that, though, the law keeping the information secret runs counter to the intent of Ohio's Sunshine Law mandating open government and public records. An opinion of the state attorney general's office said the secrecy is permissible, but the issue should be revisited. There is no privacy interest that justifies secrecy. Response times do not identify EMS patients and their conditions.
The legislature should rewrite the law so that this data can be put to use to improve emergency medical help for Ohioans.

HLT is extremely pleased to report that we have secured donations and pledges of $935,000, the agreed purchase price for the 32-acre Perryman Forest. The Trust entered into a purchase and sale agreement for the property in March 2018. This binding agreement specifies the sale price and terms under which HLT will purchase the property. The sale is contingent on many pieces still falling into place, but the biggest hurdle—funding—was just overcome.
Following an initial commitment of 90% of the purchase price from the U.S. Army (through Aberdeen Proving Ground's Army Compatible Use Buffer Program), we began a public fundraising campaign in November 2017. Generous supporters donated approximately $19,000 for the preservation of this important property on the Bush River with over 60 households contributing. See a full listing of supporters on page 4.
HLT's communication about the importance of this project and the strong community support came to the attention of the Harford County Department of Public Works. The Watershed Protection and Restoration team, led by Scott Kearby and Christine Buckley, supported HLT's goals of ecological conservation for the protection of water quality and recognized the project's strong alignment with the County's Green Infrastructure plan. With the support of County Executive Barry Glassman, HLT and the County subsequently entered into a Memorandum of Understanding outlining a pledge to cover the remainder of HLT's Perryman Forest funding needs.
The Harford Land Trust's first project was the Forest Green's Lake Preserve in Perryman in 1992, now a county park. The preservation of the Perryman Forest effectively expands the Preserve by 32 acres to the north. The tidal and non-tidal wetlands on the site are hydrologically connected through surface and subsurface flow to the Bush River and subsequently to the Chesapeake Bay, benefiting water quality by retaining nutrients and sediment. The property is characterized by upland forest and wetlands, also known as "tree swamps," and vernal pools, also known as "flatwoods." This type of ecosystem is only found in the Coastal Plain portion of the County, and is of limited occurrence.
We expect to close on this property within the next six months.

Carl Richard Moore (1892-1955)
Carl Richard Moore was a professor and researcher at the University of Chicago in Chicago, Illinois who studied sex hormones in animals from 1916 until his death in 1955. Moore focused on the role of hormones on sex differentiation in offspring, the optimal conditions for sperm production, and the effects of vasectomy or testicular implants on male sex hormone production. Moore's experiments to create hermaphrodites in the laboratory contributed to the theory of a feedback loop between the pituitary and fetal gonadal hormones to control sex differentiation.
Jacques Loeb (1859-1924)
Jacques Loeb experimented on embryos in Europe and the United States at the end of the nineteenth and beginning of the twentieth centuries. Among the first to study embryos through experimentation, Loeb helped found the new field of experimental embryology. Notably, Loeb showed scientists how to create artificial parthenogenesis, thus refuting the idea that spermatozoa alone were necessary to develop eggs into embryos and confirming the idea that the chemical constitution of embryos environment affected their development.
Brian K. Hall (1941- )
Brian Hall is the son of Doris Garrad and Harry Hall, and was born in Port Kembla, NSW Australia, on 28 October 1941. He attended the University of New England in Armidale NSW, graduating in 1963 with a BSc in zoology, in 1965 with a BSc (Honors) in zoology, and in 1968 with a PhD in zoology. His PhD thesis, undertaken under the supervision of Patrick D. F. Murray, FAA was on the differentiation of bone and secondary cartilage in chicken embryos.
Environment and Birth Defects (1973), by James G. Wilson
Environment and Birth Defects by James Graves Wilson in the US was published in 1973. The book summarized information on the causes of malformations in newborns and aimed to acquaint policy makers with Wilson's suggestions for predicting the risks of environmental causes of birth defects, called teratogens. Wilson also provided six principles for researching teratogens, a framework revised from his 1959 article Experimental Studies on Congenital Malformations. The book has ten chapters.

Francis Harry Compton Crick (1916-2004)
Francis Harry Compton Crick, who co-discovered the structure of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) in 1953 in Cambridge, England, also developed The Central Dogma of Molecular Biology, and further clarified the relationship between nucleotides and protein synthesis. Crick received the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine that he shared with James Watson and Maurice Wilkins in 1962 for their discovery of the molecular structure of DNA.
Serial Cultivation of Human Diploid Cells in the Lab (1958–1961) by Leonard Hayflick and Paul S. Moorhead
From 1958 to 1961, Leonard Hayflick and Paul Moorhead in the US developed a way in the laboratory to cultivate strains of human cells with complete sets of chromosomes. Previously, scientists could not sustain cell cultures with cells that had two complete sets of chromosomes like normal human cells (diploid). As a result, scientists struggled to study human cell biology because there was not a reliable source of cells that represented diploid human cells. In their experiments, Hayflick and Moorhead created lasting strains of human cells that retained both complete sets of chromosomes.
MicroSort
"MicroSort, developed in 1990 by the Genetics and IVF Institute, is a form of pre-conception sex selection technology for humans. Laboratories located around the world use MicroSort technology to help couples increase their chances of conceiving a child of their desired sex. MicroSort separates male sperm cells based on which sex chromosome they contain, which results in separated semen samples that contain a higher percentage of sperm cells that carry the same sex chromosome.

Hans Spemann (1869-1941)
Hans Spemann was an experimental embryologist best known for his transplantation studies and as the originator of the "organizer" concept. One of his earliest experiments involved constricting the blastomeres of a fertilized salamander egg with a noose of fine baby hair, resulting in a partially double embryo with two heads and one tail.
Keith Henry Stockman Campbell (1954-2012)
Keith Henry Stockman Campbell studied embryo growth and cell differentiation during the twentieth and twenty-first centuries in the UK. In 1995, Campbell and his scientific team used cells grown and differentiated in a laboratory to clone sheep for the first time. They named these two sheep Megan and Morag. Campbell and his team also cloned a sheep from adult cells in 1996, which they named Dolly. Dolly was the first mammal cloned from specialized adult (somatic) cells with the technique of somatic cell nuclear transfer (SCNT).
Epidermal growth factor is a signaling molecule that stimulates the growth of epidermal tissues during development and throughout life. Stanley Cohen discovered epidermal growth factor (EGF) during studies of nerve growth factor as a side effect of other experiments. EGF stimulates tissue growth by initiating a variety of cellular mechanisms. This work led to the 1986 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine awarded to Cohen and Rita Levi-Montalcini.

Studies of Thalidomide's Effects on Rodent Embryos from 1962-2008
Thalidomide is a sedative drug introduced to European markets on 1 October 1957 after extensive testing on rodent embryos to ensure its safety. Early laboratory tests in rodent populations showed that pregnant rodents could safely use it, so doctors prescribed Thalidomide to treat morning sickness in pregnant women. However, in humans Thalidomide interfered with embryonic and fetal development in ways not observed in rodent tests.

One problem might be that the tome is good globally speaking. Like having the option is definetely nice.
but in every particular round there is a locally better option, so it just doesn't see play.
I think the tome is completely overpowered. It gives you a flexibility the whole game. Imagine for example having a seeking dispel chosen the whole game. Then you can play your ordinary game and know that you always got a SD. And thats just a thought experiment. I can have a dispel the whole game or perhaps a nullify, you get the point.
In my experience it lets you focus on your game with both of your planned cards and still have a backup plan if something bad happens.
What you describe is strictly worse than having a Mage Wand with Seeking Dispel on it the whole game.
how is it strictly worse? both option let you cast sd whenever you want. But if your wand gets dispelled eg in first qc, your sd is also gone, while with the tome you still have it.
I would still prefer the wand, as it preserves spell points after the second or third use.
There's no switching if you keep Seeking Dispel as your 3rd option all game, as per Rinc's thought experiment.
With the Tome, you use up the SD every time you cast it; with the Wand, you never run out of SD as long as your opponent doesn't Dissolve your Wand.
You're right, though, about losing your SD if/when your Wand gets Dissolved, but only if you never cast your SD. As long as you get 1 use out of your Wand (compared to getting 1 use out of your Tome), then the Wand is strictly better in a situation where you always choose SD as your 3rd spell option - even if it gets Dissolved.
I think the tome is completely overpowered. It gives you a flexibility the whole game. Imagine for example having a seeking dispel chosen the whole game.
It seems I didnt think that thought experiment through. On the other hand, as soon as I put on a mage wand, it will be dissolved. The tome, I get to keep almost every time.
Either that, or the opponent does not understand the value I get from it. Anyway, only time will tell if it will be used or not. For me it´s a staple.
So far, with a wand and arcane zap as options, specifically with a wizard I didn't feel I need an extra spell prepared. It takes the same slot as a wand and cost the same, but usually I prefer the spellbind trait of the wand over the versatility of the tome, especially with arcane zap as an option that exist anyway. If only it was "mordok's crown" and not compete with the wand on the same slot, it could have been a more interesting option.
this does NOT give you an extra action, if anything it takes the same action and mana as I would use on Mana efficiency. You can only cast 2 spells a turn, so holding 3,4, or 10 cards in your hand doesn't matter. It gives you options however to punish the over committed mage, but not much else.
Just to be sure I didn't play it wrong all the the time: you actually can cast three spells, as long as they are all quick cast spell, can't you?
No you cannot. You have a Quick Cast action that allows a spell and a Full action which allows a Full Action spell OR a Move and ONE quick action spell.
Whoa, that's a big mistake. Thanks for clarification.

During renovations was a difficult time to stop by for a bite after work, and was quite frustrating ...to put up with waiting for the store to be resurrected. It looks strange, but the food is still good. Need I say more?

For Contemplation: Quotes extracted from book
"Mystical experience of nature can be of particular relevance to our troubled age, bringing deeper into our consciousness and emotions the logic that nature sustains humanity as humanity must, in turn, sustain nature. Rationality alone, however, cannot be our guide in the task of restoring our environment. A spiritual connection to nature must inspire the emotional commitment that is the yin, complementing the yang of intellectual understanding." Carl von Essen
"Trees are extraordinary revelations of the spirit in nature. And, given the multitude of ways that trees and their products benefit and enrich human culture, they are an especially appropriate symbol of the interdependence of spirit and nature." Steven C. Rockefeller and John Elder
"If we reconstructed human spirituality painstakingly, we would end up with a mangnificent tree whose branches go in so many directions, yet all trying to touch the heavens." Henryk Skolimowski
"Animists are people who recognize that the world is full of persons, only some of whom are human, and that life is always loved in relationship with others. Animism is lived out in various ways that are all about learning to act respectfully (carefully and constructively) toward and among other persons." Graham Harvey
"For Indigenous peoples, land cannot be owned, bought, or sold. She does not belong to us, we belong to her. We are born out of this land; we spend our lives on this land as her guests; and after death we go back to that same land. . . . Although Indigenous peoples around the world vary widely in their customs, traditions, rituals, languages, and so on, land is considered by all as the center of their universe, a parent, a giver of life, the core of our cultures, rituals, and traditions." Nomalungelo I. Goduka
"Nature is seen by humans through a screen of beliefs, knowledge, and purposes, and it is in terms of their images of nature, rather than of the actual structure of nature, that they act. Yet, it is upon nature itself that they do act, and it is nature itself that acts upon them, nurturing or destroying them." Roy A. Rappaport
"With its philosophical insight into the interconnectedness and thoroughgoing interdependence of all conditioned things, with its thesis that happiness is to be found through the restraint of desire in a life of contentment rather than through the proliferation of desire, with its goal of enlightenment through renunciation and contemplation and its ethic of non-injury and boundless loving-kindness for all beings, Buddhism provides all the essential elements for a relationship to the natural world characterized by respect, care, and compassion." Bhikkhu Bodi
"May all be well and secure,
May all beings be happy!
Whatever living creatures there be,
Without exception, weak or strong,
Long, huge or middle-sized,
Or short, minute or bulky,
Whether visible or invisible,
And those living far or near,
The born and those seeking birth,
May all beings be happy!" Metta Sutta
"Scientists tell us that we have enough technology to save our planet. . . . Yet we don't take advantage of this new technology. . . . The technological has to work hand-in-hand with the spiritual. Our spiritual life is the element that can bring about the energies of peace, calm, brotherhood, understanding, and compassion. Without that, our planet doesn't stand a chance." Thich Nhat Hahn
"There is no question that Francis was in advance of his age, as he anticipated all that is liberal and sympathetic in modern times: the love of nature, the love of animals, the sense of social compassion, the sense of the spiritual dangers of affluence." Henryk Skolimowski
". . . the wellspring for the passion that drove public speech and action in behalf of the environment was in large part religious and ethical. Environmentalism, in short, had become one version of nature religion in the lingering shadow of American transcendentalism." Catherine L. Albanese
"Few are altogether deaf to the preaching of pine trees. Their sermons on the mountains go to our hearts; and if people in general could be got into the woods, even for once, to hear the trees speak for themselves, all difficulties in the way of forest preservation would vanish." John Muir
"For what lies inside the human being is the whole spiritual cosmos in condensed form. In our inner organism we have an image of the entire cosmos." Rudolf Steiner
"But it can also happen, if will and grace are joined, that as I contemplate the tree I am drawn into a relation, and the tree ceases to be an It. . . . Does the tree then have consciousness, similar to our own? I have no experience of that. But thinking that you have brought this off in your own case, must you again divide the indivisible? What I encounter is neither the soul of a tree nor a dryad, but the tree itself." Martin Buber
" . . . the upsurge of Spirit is the only plausible way to stop the ecological destruction of our planet. Even people who have no interest in a communal solution to the distortions in our lives will have to face up [to] this ecological reality. Unless we transform our relationship with nature, we will destroy the preconditions for human life on this planet." Rabbi Michael Lerner
"Both our present science and our present technology are so tinctured with orthodox Christian arrogance toward nature that no solution for our ecologic crisis can be expected from them alone. Since the roots of our trouble are so largely religious, the remedy must also be essentially religious, whether we call it that or not. We must rethink and refeel our nature and destiny." Lynn White, Jr.
"… how to view man's relationship to the environment is one of the great moral problems of our time." K. S. Shrader-Frechete
"Humanity may destroy the possibilities for life on earth unless the freedom and power that we have acquired are channeled in new creative directions by a spiritual awareness and moral commitment that transcend nationalism, racism, sexism, religious sectarianism, anthropocentrism, and the dualism between human culture and nature. This is the great issue for the 1990s and the twenty-first century." Steven C. Rockefeller and John C. Elder
"The present urgency is to begin thinking within the context of the whole planet, the integral earth community with all its human and other-than-human components." Thomas Berry
"What I really believe is the only hopeful relation between our life and the whole of life is one of reverence and respect and of feeling at one with it. The other attitude which is the one our society is based on is devastating and it is killing the earth and it is killing us too." William Stanley Merwin
"On the last day of the world I would want to plant a tree." William Stanley Merwin
"The central purpose of the Work that Reconnects is to help people uncover and experience their innate connections with each other and with the systemic, self-healing powers of the web of life, so that they may be enlivened and motivated to play their part in creating a sustainable civilization." Joanna Macy
"… the ecological problem of our times demands a radical reevaluation of how we see the entire world; it demands a different interpretation of matter and the world, a new attitude of humankind toward nature, and a new understanding of how we acquire and make use of our material goods." His All Holiness, Bartholomew I, Ecumenical Patriarch.
"It gradually became clear that the Green Belt Movement's work with communities to repair the degraded environment could not be done effectively without participants embracing a set of core spiritual values." Wangari Maathai
"We still have time to fix this [ecocrisis] and we still have time to make it better, but really what is needed here is that the human race needs to wake up and look forward with the sense that we've got to change the way we live. . . . . What we have to do is to transform ourselves yet again into something that has never existed on this planet before, which is a kind of techno-indigenous people. . . . . We will use high technology and science to provide us with the energy we need, but they'll be sustainable solutions. Nature is not our enemy, it is our sustenance and we need it, and we need nature healthy for us to be healthy and to survive long-term, and that's the realization we have to come to and that's the next stage in evolution that we have to reach." James Cameron of Avatar film
"Learn well, then we will see if your insanity can be cured." Neytiri's mother admonishes Jake in the film Avatar
"We must learn to reverence and hold in awe the sacredness of the earth as our beloved community and household rather than view it merely as the backdrop or setting for self-contained, self-regarding human enterprises. Deeply rooted religious sensibilities and commitment are required." Donald A. Crosby
The most beautiful thing we can experience is the mysterious. It is the source of all true art and science. He to whom this emotion is a stranger, who can no longer pause to wonder and stand rapt in awe, is as good as dead: his eyes are closed. This insight into the mystery of life, coupled though it be with fear, has also given rise to religion. To know that what is impenetrable to us really exists, manifesting itself as the highest wisdom and the most radiant beauty which our dull faculties can comprehend only in their most primitive forms—this knowledge, this feeling, is at the center of true religiousness. In this sense, and in this sense only, I belong in the ranks of devoutly religious men." Albert Einstein
"To reenchant nature is not merely to gain a new perspective for its integrity and well-being; it is to throw open the doors to a deeper level of existence." Alister E. McGrath
"It is my dream that the entire Tibetan plateau should become a free refuge where humanity and nature can live in peace and in harmonious balance. It would be a place where people from all over the world could come to seek the true meaning of peace within themselves, away from the tensions and pressures of much of the rest of the world." His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama ofTibet
"No important change in ethics was ever accomplished without an internal chage in our intellectual emphasis, loyalties, affections, and convictions." Aldo Leopold
"We live in all things. All things live in us. . . . We are grateful. We rejoice in all life." excerpt from "A Prayer of Gratitude" of Earth Ministry

Spiritual ecology is a complex. diverse, and dynamic arena at the interfaces of religions and spiritualities on the one hand and on the other environments, ecologies, and environmentalisms with intellectual, spiritual, and practical components.
Drawing on the wisdom of centuries and a wealth of different traditions, spiritual ecology can generate the profound transformations that are required if ecosanity is to be restored.
Author documents and explains the thoughts, actions, and legacies of spiritual ecology's pioneers from ancient times to the present, demonstrating how the movement may offer the last chance to restore a healthy relationship between humankind and nature.

ACL / AFC Cup
North Korea's April 25 teach Tai Po a lesson
By Matt Worth
Photo: Zinc Yeung (offside.hk)
Tai Po were defeated 3-1 by North Korea's April 25 in a fast and physical encounter on Tuesday, April 30th. The result that leaves the visitors firmly in control of AFC Cup Group I.
The crowd at Mong Kok Stadium had barely taken their seats when April 25 took the lead. The Koreans took a fast and aggressive approach from the start. After only two minutes, full-back Son Phyong-Il found space on the left and, when his Tai Po marker slipped, had time to float a cross for Kim Yu-Song to head home. The international forward's header was not especially powerful, and Tsang Man-fai in the Tai Po goal should ve disappointed to allow it through at his far post.
Thus was established the pattern for the game as a whole, in which the visiting team was generally able to demonstrate tactical and technical superiority. Like their first goal, April 25's second came from a cross, this time from the right as Son turned goalscorer. Arriving unmarked to catch the Tai Po defence ball–watching on 43 minutes, he gave Tsang little chance with the header.
In between, Tai Po had threatened the April 25 goal only sporadically, Joao Emir crashing a long-range drive off the crossbar for their clearest, and certainly most spectacular, chance. Generally, the Greens had difficulty progressing the ball through midfield, and often resorted to long balls to Harrison Sawyer. The tall Australian had a difficult evening with his back to goal, however, too often dragged deep and denied good passing options. April 25, meanwhile, demonstrated expert control of space both with and without the ball.
However, the visitors showed little mastery of game management, and generally allowed the match to proceed in an end-to-end fashion, declining to sit on possession. This created openings after the break for a somewhat rejuvenated Tai Po, who achieved a breakthrough in the 53rd minute. The popular Sawyer finally got his chance to attack the ball, rising to turn Lee's right wing cross past An Tae-Song in the April 25 goal. It was a good piece of centre-forward play, Sawyer using his height and aggression to claim a cross to which he had little right.
Any impression of the match being finely balanced was illusory, however. Resumption of the ascendancy by 25 April was swift, though they had to wait until the 72nd minute to make the result safe with the fourth headed goal of the match. Son once again used his pace to beat the Tai Po defence and cross from the byline, for Kim to rush between his markers and nod in his second of the game. Tai Po will reflect how much better their guests used both width and the high ball, a consistent differentiator between the two sides all evening. Although the Greens brought on Sandro just after the hour to partner with Sawyer in a tall attack, they never worked this into a consistent threat.
With three games played, Tai Po now sit second in Group I with six points. April 25, with nine points, are firm favourites to claim the sole qualification place for the knockout phase. Kitchee, Hong Kong's other representatives, claimed their first three points on Wednesday evening, May 1st, to sit third, ahead of Taiwan's Hang Yuen.

Accessibility 17 to 19 Aug
The Princessehof National Museum of Ceramics in Leeuwarden celebrates its centenary anniversary with a major reopening this year. A completely new presentation of the permanent collection on the first floor is being installed, and the foyer, the shop, the ticket area, tearoom and garden are being completely renewed. On 9 October, the museum closes for the final stage of the renovation. The newly renovated Princessehof will be open to the public from 2 December. With the new arrangement of the permanent collection and no less than four exhibitions featuring contemporary ceramics, the museum is ready for Leeuwarden-Fryslân European Capital of Culture 2018.
In 2017 it will be 100 years since the Frisian notary Nanne Ottema opened the doors of the Princessehof for the first time. The centenary anniversary will be celebrated after the renovation with the reopening of the museum. In addition to a new arrangement of the permanent collection, the Princessehof presents the exhibition In Motion with large contemporary ceramic installations from East and West, a new edition of EKWC@Princessehof with Caroline Coolen, and two exhibitions with new works by artist Johan Tahon and designer Floris Wubben.
Renewed museum
The renovation of the Princessehof covers three areas. The museum collection, including an important collection of Chinese porcelain, Delftware and Dutch Art Nouveau and Art Deco-ceramics, are being given a new presentation. An accessible and attractive layout shows the influences of East and West and that ceramics are of all ages and for everyone. The foyer has been rebuilt. The entrance to the museum has been relocated to the shop, the children's studio has been moved to the first floor and the tearoom has been moved to a better location with a terrace in the garden. The palace garden is also undergoing a complete renovation and an additional entrance to the museum is being installed on the garden side. The exhibition rooms on the ground floor and the second floor remain available for cultural-historical exhibitions and contemporary ceramics in visual arts and design.
In Motion: Ceramic Reflections in Contemporary Art
In Motion is the largest contemporary art exhibition ever to be presented in the Princessehof. Monumental installations by established artists and emerging talent from East and West fill the halls. With their work, Céleste Boursier-Mougenot (1961), Roger Hiorns (1975), Meekyoung Shin (1967), Claire Verkoyen (1959), Geng Xue (1983) and David Zink Yi (1973), show that ceramics continue to evolve in all countries. The installations range from a life-size squid in a pool of ink to an immersive experience in which a bath with dozens of porcelain bowls lights up in a dark room. The exhibition can be seen from 2 December 2017 to 6 May 2018.
Johan Tahon: Monk
The figurative work of the leading Flemish sculptor Johan Tahon (1965) is exhibited on the second floor of the Princessehof. Works include contemplative figures and albarelli (apothecary jars), supplemented with small sculptures. It is Tahon's first solo exhibition of his ceramic work in a museum, and is open to the public from 2 December 2017 to 25 November 2018.
Design #3: Floris Wubben
In this solo exhibition, designer Floris Wubben (1983) presents his new works, made with self-designed machines. The designer gives shape to functional objects that, due to his artistic treatment, are more redolent of sculpture than design. The exhibition can be seen from 2 December 2017 to 25 November 2018.
EKWC@Princessehof: Caroline Coolen
The series EKWC@Princessehof presents exhibitions of work by artists who have had a residency at the European Ceramic Work Center in Oisterwijk. Caroline Coolen (BE, 1975) has been invited to exhibit her rugged sculptures from 2 December 2017. The ceramic assemblages are reminiscent of thistles, for the artist a metaphor for the untameable. The exhibition can be seen until 6 May 2018.
The renovation of the Princessehof National Museum of Ceramics is made possible with the financial support of BankGiro Loterij, Ir. Abe Bonnema Stichting, Wassenbergh-Clarijs-Fontein Stichting, Stichting Dioraphte, VSBfonds, Prins Bernhard Cultuurfonds, Stichting Van Achterbergh-Domhof, Het Nieuwe Stads Weeshuis, Stichting Woudsend Anno 1816, St. Anthony Gasthuis, Meindersma-Sybenga Stichting, Stichting Dorodarte, Leeuwarder ondernemersfonds, GGB Bolhuis Fonds, P.W.

Roger Norman and Armin Schwartz Place 2nd in 2010 BITD Vegas to Reno
Posted onAug 23, 2010 at 6:27 AM
RENO, NV AUGUST 22, 2010 – Roger Norman started 26th and finished 2nd, third overall, in the Crystal Bay Casino #8 Trick Truck class with Armin Schwartz joining the team for the 2010 Best In The Desert Vegas to Reno race. After a bad qualifying run put them into the 26th spot to start, they overcame about 11 minutes of downtime working on the truck and still climbed up into 2nd out of 48 Class 1400 Trick Trucks registered for Friday August 20, 2010 race.
"We had a great race and everything went really well overall! I am glad that Armin was able to join us for his first experience in a trophy truck. It is tough because it is completely different to drive than a Class 1 car, but he did a great job!" said Norman.
Armin Schwartz, a World Rally driver from Germany, took the drivers seat at Race Mile 308 with his navigator and crew chief Bryan Lytle as his co-driver. "I have been looking for quite some time to drive in a trophy truck, and am glad to be in a good truck with a great team," said Armin Schwartz. "For me it was unbelievable what you can do with a truck. It fly's very well, especially when you have unknown obstacles," laughs Schwartz. "It was very exciting because we tried to increase the speed mile, by mile, and not have any stupid mistakes. It paid off as we only had one flat."
The Norman Motorsports team had great pit stops all day long, even the drivers change was only a minute and a half. "I haven't raced in a couple of months, and it took me about an hour to get into the groove and start clicking again. I will say I felt much safer driving in the dust knowing the motorcycles and ATV's had lights, and we successfully used our Pass Alert system a couple of times," said Norman who was a leader in the recent safety movement.
As a reminder, Norman Motorsports in El Cajon, CA will be hosting a fundraiser to benefit FAST-Aid, Cruz Roja and the Emergency Services of Erendira this Saturday August 28, 2010, doors open at 2pm. The premier of Dezert People 8 will be at 3pm and will show continuously throughout the afternoon. Charity gaming, a silent auction and other fun activities will round off the evening. Admission to the fundraiser is $30 per person, which includes a copy of Dezert People 8. Become a Facebook friend of Roger Norman or Curtis Guise and RSVP to the event to attend this very special benefit event. Fans, Sponsors, and Friends are welcome, but must RSVP via Facebook.

Vijf andere acteerprijzen werden haar daadwerkelijk toegekend, waaronder een Golden Globe en een Independent Spirit Award (beide voor Anna).

Kirkland maakte in 1960 haar officiële filmdebuut in Crack in the Mirror, maar dit betrof een rolletje als edelfigurant. In haar vierde film Blue (1968) speelde ze als Sarah Lambert voor het eerst een bij naam genoemd personage. In de vijftig jaar sinds Kirkland voor het eerst op het grote scherm te zien was, speelde ze in meer dan 90 films, meer dan 110 inclusief televisiefilms. Daarin variëren haar verschijningen zowel vroeg als later in haar carrière als actrice van hoofd- en stevige bijrollen tot niet bij naam genoemde personages en cameo-optredens. Kirkland speelt daarbij in zowel commerciële titels als in independant projecten en verscheidene korte films.

The Fix for Canada
Fort Mac Insurance – Trudeau The Unifier?
After 3 years with no settlement, Fort McMurray woman wants Insurance Act changed
'We are still paying a mortgage on a pile of ashes,' homeowner says
After struggling for three years to get a settlement, a Fort McMurray woman wants to see changes to the Insurance Act.
Jamie Harpe lost her home in the May 2016 wildfire that destroyed 15 per cent of the buildings in Alberta's oilsands city.
"Three years into it, we are still paying a mortgage on a pile of ashes, and there doesn't seem to be an end in sight," she said.
After the fire, Harpe said, she was able to settle a claim for the cost of her home's contents with her insurance company, Aviva.
But the house claim remains unsettled.
Aviva declined to comment on the case, but Harpe said she will opt for a formal dispute resolution process.

'How could this be possible?' Fort McMurray condo board struggles to find insurance
In wake of 2016 wildfire, Winchester Greens building denied renewal by its insurer
After the 2016 Horse River wildfire that burned down more than 2,400 structures in Fort McMurray, residents of the 40-unit Winchester Greens condominium building considered themselves among the lucky ones.
Their apartment-style units didn't burn, but the condo board did claim $246,000 of smoke damage on its insurance.
Three years later, the condo board is struggling to find insurance coverage, in part because of that wildfire claim.

Justin Trudeau, the great unifier, has one big regret
Elected to forge consensus and bridge divides, he has bequeathed a Canada of fresh regional and cultural estrangements
What these gruelling election campaigns tell you — or should tell you — is that Canada is too big and diverse to be governed by one size fits all solutions. The Fathers of Confederation recognized that power was best exercised close to home and divided jurisdictions so that health, education and other crucial services were the domain of provincial governments.
Trudeau, it seems, does not hold with that strict division of powers.

Justin Trudeau may have won re-election, but Canada's divisions will make his second term harder
Justin Trudeau claims Canadians rejected division at Monday's election.
His supporters say the fact the Prime Minister secured the most seats and will now form a minority government is a sign the country backs his progressive agenda.
But is it really?
Yet, at time of writing, the Opposition had only managed to translate that into an estimated 122 seats.
Mr Trudeau's team snatched roughly 156 — 14 short of a majority.
This is only possible because different parts of Canada seemed to vote for different things.
Far from a rejection of division, this election has served to highlight the nation's rural-urban, east-west fault lines.

Canada's Trudeau wins second term, but the nation is more divided
With results still trickling in early Tuesday, the Liberals had 157 seats — 13 short of the 170 needed for a majority in the 338-seat House of Commons — while the Conservatives had 121.
Still, Trudeau's Liberal Party won fewer raw votes nationally than the Conservatives did, and his party failed to win a single seat in the western provinces of Alberta and Saskatchewan where the Conservatives dominated.

No more 'Ladies and Gentlemen' for Air Canada in-flight announcements
The insistence that biology divides humanity (and almost all other multicellular creatures) into two sexes is now regarded as old-fashioned, according to the social revolutionaries of the Left. They are "science-deniers," to use a favorite term of the warmist cult, a term far more appropriate in this context than when applied to those who question the predictive validity of computer models that have forecasted catastrophes, none of which has appeared.
There is nothing new about leftists inflicting bizarre theories on the rest of society, but what is remarkable is the speed with which the major institutions of advanced capitalist societies have capitulated to the demand that biology be superseded by political and social fashion.
