Knowledge Chronicles - Life and Times - You Said What?
How are you as a human with an X and a Y chromosome giving "advice" to anyone who possesses Double X Chromosomes ? What foundation are you basing your advice on? It's been obvious since the beginning of mankind that we think differently, at least for the most part, so how can you tell me what I'm thinking or even feeling for that matter?
I mean most men, married or single, considered it "babysitting" when they are left alone with their children. No! You are "parenting" your children! They are as much your children as they are their mother's children.
Most men believe that women love receiving flowers to say 'I Love You', 'I was thinking of you', 'I'm sorry'. Well contrary to that belief, I don't like flowers, women with pollen allergies don't like flowers (it makes them sneeze and their eyes water). Furthermore, not all women want to receive chocolates for Valentine's Day or Mother's Day or their birthday, especially if they have peanut allergies (most chocolate boxes have a couple that contain peanuts) or they just might not like milk chocolate or dark chocolate (there's always some of those in the box as well). I prefer white chocolate, but chocolate manufactures don't make boxes of white chocolate readily available which means they would have to pre-ordered and not a last minute thought.
Rev Run and Tyrese aren't the only males giving out advice aimed at women; there was Steve Harvey's book 'Act Like a Lady, Think Like A Man', and there is an internet forum on Madame Noire titled 'Ask A Black Man'!
And there are a lot of women upset over the idea of men giving advice to women, especially when the men giving the advice have multiple relationship failures in their past, and no documented experience in analyzing women and relationships! Now, don't get me (or them) wrong, we're not saying that disqualifies them from giving advice, we're just saying speak from your experience. What failed in your life, past relationships, and what you and your mate did or didn't to fix your relationship, and what you learned from that experience. Just as men and women think/feel differently, each individual (male or female) thinks/feels differently so there is no such thing as blanket advice.
My contemplation of all of this, is what has prompted this blog . . .
Now while I feel like they are giving us Great Insight into how men think and some great Life Advice, I don't think that they are qualified to tell women how to dress or how to act.
Very true! Or at least for the mature! For there are some folks that are grown on the age chart, but immature in the mind and learn nothing from the mistakes they have made and repeat them over and over.
Very true! Sometimes regardless of how strong your feelings are for a person, you have to acknowledge that that person is not good for you mentally, spiritually, and/or physically.
This implies that the onus for standards lies solely on the shoulders of women! So we, as women, determine the "Standards" for all of humanity, is that what he's saying?
How about men be held equally accountable for having standards for themselves, as they expect women to have for themselves? I'm not your mommy! I shouldn't have to tell you how to behave like a gentleman, or how to respect me as a lady!
So what I decided to put on for the day determines my intellect? My moral compass? My dreams and aspirations? Is that what you're saying?
Or are you saying that a man has a right to treat me a certain way because of the skirt, dress, blouse, shirt, pants that I am wearing?
Does this work both ways? Can I determine a man's intellect, moral compass, success, failures dreams, aspirations, sexual promiscuity based on the way that he is dressed? I mean are women to assume that because a man is stepping out of a Mercedes Benz wearing crisp jeans that sag a little, a baggy T-Shirt, and some fresh Tims or Jordans that he's a drug dealer? That he probably doesn't have a high school diploma? That he's most likely packing an STD in his jeans? That the phone call he's getting is from one his baby mommas calling to complain that he hasn't paid his child support?
See how bazaar that sounds? What I decide to put on or not put on in the course of a day does not give any man the right to catcall, touch, proposition, or force me into a conversation or action that I explicitly say NO to!
On an episode of "Ask A Black Man", the men were giving advice on how a woman should set up her Social Media sites based on their likes and dislikes. Huh?
Since when did you life/relationship hang ups become mine? If you took the time to read my About section on Facebook, or even my profile description on Instagram or Twitter, what pictures I do or don't post shouldn't dictate if you would like to get to know me better. If we took the time to read the information that is provided, we would learn what their interests are, possibly where they went to school, organizations they are involved with, and where they work. Now if the person hasn't completed their about section . . . I'll leave that up to you how you want to handle that situation.
I would love to facilitate/participate in a forum/show that operates on the same premise as Ask A Black Man or It's Not You It's Men where it was an all female cast, talking about female issues in Life and Relationships!
Let's hear what mature, intelligent women have to say about their experiences in Life and Relationships. Let them inform the world what they are looking for in a man, how they wish to be treated, and what it takes to sustain a long lasting relationship with them! I mean relationships are supposed to fifty fifty, right? Give and Take? Maintain a balance so that neither party feels neglected or used or like the onus of the success or failure of the relationship falls solely on their shoulders!
I have the cameras, a green screen, and editing software! I just need some panelists, a location, a live audience, and a method for distributing the content! Sponsors would be nice as well!
Thanks for tuning in to this blog entry and remember . . .
We are all unique in our thoughts and feelings!

Viaggio nei Fori
Rome in his glorious days.
Hundred domes and imposing remains of imperial buildings shape the Roman skyline.
They make you shivering at the thought of the millennia passing by, while the bustling flow of contemporary life consistently swallow them and remodel their aspect and their meaning.
The architectures of ancient Rome are still monumental and impressive, but how hard it is to imagine the city in the past, in its most glorious days!
A local expert guide can help you greatly to enjoy what is still in place and at the same time to mentally rebuild what went lost and the history relating to it. However, there is something which could remain elusive and unclear in your mind. What better, then, than attending the wonderful "Viaggio nei Fori" (Journeys through Ancient Rome) show of lights?
Inaugurated in 2014 as the brilliant idea of two Italian scientific journalists, Paco Lanciano and Piero Angela,
in partnership with the Roman Superintendency, the show has already seduced thousand and thousand spectators through the years and won the Tripadvisor Certificate of Excellence.
How does it work? Just book the ticket (you may check for availability and book here: www.viaggioneifori.it), reach the meeting point at the indicated time, and be ready to start an extraordinary journey!Equipped with special audio systems with headphones and escorted by the narrating voice of Piero Angela, you will step again into ancient Rome and immerse yourself for 40/50 minutes into the extraordinary beauty of massive imperial monuments, brought to life again thanks to artificial lights and images.
From Easter period until November 3 rd, the show takes place almost every evening as the dark comes, in the extraordinary setting of the Imperial Fora, the several squares built by the early emperors of Rome next to the Colosseum and the former Roman Forum.
It focuses on the two earliest Fora which were realized, by will of two leaders destined to an immortal fame:
Julius Caesar and his adoptive son, Octavian, who later became emperor with the name of Augustus. The squares were named after them and are still known nowadays as the Forum of Caesar and the Forum of Augustus.
You may choose to live your immersive experience in one of them only or to include both the squares in your journey through ancient Rome: in any case, it will be informative and unforgettable!
The show through Augustus' Forum presents a faithful reconstruction of the area, dominated by the marble Temple of Mars the Avenger, as well as an overview of the emperor, the official founder of the Roman Empire, whose colossal statue stood in a squared hall next to the sacred building.
Every architectural and sculptural detail there was accurately designed and planned to glorify the leader, the men who preceded him and made Rome great and their mutual divine ancestors.
The visit to the Forum of Caesar has been added as a new step of the project in 2015. Do not miss it! It is conceived as a travelling show across the Forum of the emperor Trajan, early 2 nd century AD, through an underground tunnel which runs under the modern avenue Viale dei Fori Imperiali and then to the Forum of Caesar, with the majestic Temple of Venus Genitrix, mythical ancestress of Caesar's family, and to the Curia, seat of the Senate. The journey explores both Caesar's figure and his political project, perfectly visualized by the architecture of his forum, and the role of the forum in the daily life of ancient Romans.
The whole show is an incredible blend of archaeology, history, and technology, it is true magic for the mix of sensations it raises, the amazement for the magnificent play of lights and a nostalgic mood for the glorious past of Rome.
You will be enchanted by it, as well as by its extraordinary setting, the archaeological area of the "Fori
Imperiali", caressed by the romantic, teasing Roman breeze and the enchanting atmosphere of a warm Italian evening.

Scott Sommerdorf | The Salt Lake Tribune Kirk Robinson, Ph.D., executive director of the Western Wildlife Conservancy, speaks at a news conference Wednesday, March 6, 2013, about his opposition to a line item in a legislative appropriations proposal that was heard in the Natural Resources and Agriculture committee. On February 21, 2013, at a meeting of the Natural Resources, Agriculture and Environmental Quality subcommittee, Sen. Ralph Okerlund, R-Monroe, proposed that $300,000 from the general fund be appropriated to pay a firm in Washington, D.C. ,to lobby against "wolf-reintroduction" in Utah.

By Brian Maffly The Salt Lake Tribune
· March 8, 2013 2:36 pm
Although no one is proposing to reintroduce the gray wolf in Utah, lawmakers want to spend $300,000 for the second consecutive year to lobby federal officials against such a move, arguing that the return of wolves, extirpated almost a century ago, would wipe out big game.
The line item, listed among priority one-time spending requests from the Legislature's natural resources budget committee, has drawn ridicule from conservationists and citizens who say these expenditures are a silly misuse of tax dollars that could be invested in education or other worthy programs.
"Utah is not overrun with wolves, but it is overrun with children in classrooms," said Marlene Foard, a 33-year Salt Lake City school teacher dismayed that Utah remains at the bottom among states in per-pupil spending. But Don Peay, the influential anti-wolf advocate seeking the money, says the Utah economy could take a massive hit should wolves, protected in Utah under the Endangered Species Act, gain a foothold.
"It's destroying jobs, private property and rural economies," said Peay, a founder of Big Game Forever,a Salt Lake City-based nonprofit organization told the Natural Resources, Agriculture and Environmental Quality budget committee, referring to what he claims is unfolding in Idaho since the successful wolf reintroduction in the Yellowstone region. "We want to keep Utah a great place to hunt and fish."
After hearing a similar pitch from Big Game Forever co-founder Ryan Benson, the Legislature last year appropriated $300,000 to fund wolf-related lobbying, with virtually no oversight of precisely how the money was used or what it accomplished. Big Game Forever submitted the only bid to do this lobbying on July 28, 2012, and won the one-year contract four days later.
That contract throughthe state Division of Wildlife Resources calls for the nonprofit to "work with state and federal agencies to pursue legal and legislative solutions to achieve [the state's] legal and management authority over wolves to protect wildlife." It specified that Benson was to be paid on completion of the work, but Michael Styler, the head of the Department of Natural Resources, DWR's parent agency, approved an immediate payout.
Styler's Aug. 6 letter to state purchasing officials four days after the contact was signed cites a provision in the division's request for proposals that allows payment upon receipt of an invoice. State policy generally prohibits paying contracts upfront, but the state's administrative rules allow agency heads to request early payment if they are willing to assume the risks, said Kent Beers, the state's purchasing director.
Styler — who two years ago in a legislative hearing called wolves "the resurrection of the T. rex," and "the perfect biological weapon" — said Thursday he could not recall his letter requesting upfront payment of the contract.
The wolf-lobby contract does require Big Game Forever to submit a report to DWR summarizing its accomplishments and giving an update on wolf-related legislation — but it is not due until June 30, 2013.
Now the Legislature is moving toward appropriating an additional $300,000.
There are no Washington lobbyists currently registered for Big Game Forever and have been none since April 1, 2011.
At a Feb. 21 appropriations hearing, Peay gave a vague response when asked about the work his group has accomplished with this money.
"It's been used to do a very complex, political, legal, grass-roots effort," he said. The current line item comes at the request of Senate Majority Leader Ralph Okerlund, R-Monroe, who did not respond to an email request for comment.
Opponents say such lobbying is pointless from the viewpoint of Utah taxpayers because it is unlikely robust wolf populations will ever become established in the Beehive State and federal wildlife officials have never proposed reintroducing them there. They also question the propriety of handing public money to a private group to advance a special interest.
The feds agreed two years ago to delist the gray wolf inside a recovery zone covering Montana, Wyoming, Idaho and a piece of northern Utah. A nationwide delisting is expected this year, a move that would allow Utah and other Western states to "manage" wolves without much federal interference.
The Northern Rockies gray wolf inhabited Utah and Colorado at the time of Mormon settlement and the smaller and distinctive Mexican gray wolf roamed Arizona, according to Kim Crumbo of the Grand Canyon Wildlands Council. The last native wolf in Utah was killed in San Juan County in the early 1930s, but descendants of those reintroduced in Yellowstone are now entering northern Utah.
Peay claims federal authorities are bent on recovering the Mexican wolf, regardless of the toll on agriculture.
"They want to put Mexican wolves in Utah because the Mexicans don't want them," he told lawmakers.
But there is not much truth to that, according to U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service officials.
A preliminary scientific report has identified parts of southern Utah as playing a potential role in the recovery of the Mexican wolf, said Laura Romin, the service's deputy field supervisor for Utah. A revision of this subspecies' 1982 recovery plan is underway and no decisions have been made about altering the recovery zone.
The agency has been releasing captive-raised wolves in Arizona's Blue Range as part of a re-introduction program underway since 1998 and their numbers in the wild have fluctuated between 40 and 60 over the years.
Peay and Benson, whose voicemail boxes are full, could not be reached Thursday.

Warszawska Fabryka Motocykli (WFM) – nieistniejąca fabryka motocykli w Warszawie przy ul. Mińskiej 25, produkująca motocykle, skutery i dwusuwowe silniki motocyklowe pod marką WFM.

Opis

WFM, zwyczajowo nazywana wuefemką, powstała w 1951 r. z przekształcenia Warszawskich Zakładów Naprawy Samochodów, które utworzono na bazie Zakładów Sprzętu Transportowego nr 2 i Państwowych Zakładów Samochodowych nr 2. WFM przejęła z wrocławskiej Wytwórni Sprzętu Komunikacyjnego Psie Pole produkcję silników motocyklowych o pojemności 125 cm³, a także produkcję motocykla SHL 125 cm³ z Kieleckich Zakładów Wyrobów Metalowych (KZWM). WFM opracowała własne konstrukcje motocykli: M06 w kilku odmianach, prototypowy M16 oraz skuterów: prototypy Żuk, Bąk i Osa produkowana w odmianach M50 i M52.

Wieloletnim dyrektorem fabryki był Wacław Laskowski.

W dniu 1 stycznia 1965 r. nastąpiło połączenie zakładów WFM z sąsiednimi Polskimi Zakładami Optycznymi, po czym zaczęto stopniowo wygaszać produkcje. Nieruchomości i maszyny przejęły PZO, nadal produkując silniki i części zamienne.

Motocykle skonstruowane w WFM: M06, M06R, M06-S34, M06-S01-Z1, M16 TARPAN

Skutery skonstruowane w WFM: M08 Osa, M50 Osa, M52 Osa, M55 Osa, M57 Osa

Silniki produkowane w WFM: S01, S06, S06A, S32, S32U, S33

Produkcja 1951–1965
 motocykle (4 typy) – 600 000 sztuk
 skutery (2 typy) – 28 000 sztuk
 silniki (6 typów) – 250 000 sztuk – dostarczane zakładom w Świdniku i Kielcach

W kulturze masowej
 Obecnie na ośmiohektarowym zrewitalizowanym terenie dawnej fabryki WFM przy ul. Mińskiej 25 zlokalizowana jest przestrzeń kulturalno-mieszkaniowa Soho Factory Warszawa. Znajduje się tu Muzeum Neonów.
 Pod koniec lat 50. nad sklepem firmowym WFM na ul. Kruczej 16/18 umieszczono neon autorstwa Tadeusza Rogowskiego przedstawiającego motocyklistę na motocyklu wraz z napisem "-W-F-M-". W Muzeum Neonów znajduje się częściowa rekonstrukcja neonu.
 W Polskiej Kronice Filmowej przedstawiono historię posiadacza nowego motocykla SHL M05 wyprodukowanego w WFM, który po bardzo krótkim czasie od zakupu ulega awarii. Komentator skarży się na nieskuteczny proces kontroli technicznej w Warszawskiej Fabryce Motocykli.
 Motocykle z WFM można zobaczyć m.in. w filmach Dzięcioł, Małżeństwo z rozsądku i Jestem mordercą.

Nowa WFM
Na początku XXI wieku powstał projekt reaktywacji marki WFM przy współpracy z Mińską Fabryką Motocykli i Rowerów Motovelo z Białorusi Pomysłodawcą projektu był Włodzimierz Gąsiorek posiadający prawa do znaku towarowego WFM poprzez klub Motor Klub Wawer. Motocykl był modyfikacją motocykla Mińsk Lider. W sprzedaży dostępne były wersję z silnikiem 125 cm³ i 50 cm³.

NVTC is inviting members and industry leaders to serve as guest bloggers, sharing insights and information on trends or business issues relevant to other members. This week, John Beveridge of Rapidan Inbound shares insights both on closing deals as well as developing a business that you want to close from the Nov. 20 Small Business and Entrepreneur and Business Development, Marketing & Sales joint committee event.
The panelists shared insights both on closing deals as well as doing the things you need to develop business that you want to close. Here are some of the tips the panelists shared.
A good way to start developing business is to develop your personal brand as well as your company brand. Creating good content is a great way to develop your personal brand and anyone can do it. Chris Marentis started Surefire Social with an eBook.
Economic down times create opportunities for new businesses. Carolyn Parent recommended that new businesses take what they can get and show results quickly. You may want to land that Fortune 500 account, but if a good SMB opportunity arises, take advantage of it. To close business, find some way to show them value quickly, even if it's just a needs analysis.
New businesses can take advantage of sales technology to qualify new business opportunities. Marty Kaufman shared how WeddingWire's data scientists use predictive analytics to help them target their business development resources to maximize revenue. Don't overlook the affordable SaaS sales technology resources available to you.
Depending on which market you serve, your sales strategies will vary. B2C companies should look to create viral buzz around their products and services while B2B companies should position themselves as valued business partners to their customers. The B2G market moves at a glacial pace and sellers need to be early to the party.
These were just a few of the insights the panelists shared at the event. Want to learn more about business development, sales and marketing? Come to the next committee meeting on December 16.

Malgré ses , ce qui est considéré comme petit pour un mannequin, Sara est capable de garder son équilibre et de se produire sur le podium, quelle que soit la hauteur de ses talons. Alors que Sara se comporte de manière gaie et aérienne, Sara a en fait un côté sournois et est assez compétitive face à ses mannequins rivaux, votant même avec parti pris pour Kokoro pendant le festival de la FMAD juste pour pousser Kokoro à quitter l'industrie du mannequinat.

Time has gotten away from me again, although in my defense we weren't able to get photos until the middle of last week because of the weather. Even on days the sun shone the light was very changeable which made it nearly impossible for EK to get good photos.

Further progress on the brioche bag. It works up a lot faster now that I have some practice. I've also standardized how I plan on doing the recycled shirt linings, which is good since I have another to make once this one is finished.

WAYNE OR EATWOOD, WHO'S THE ULTIMATE WESTERN HERO?
By spencerl964,
April 19, 2011 in General Discussions

Err, I thought the name was *Eastwood,* not *Eatwood?*

Harry Carey, the brightest star in the early Western sky (according to John Ford)
MovieProfessor
Certainly, William S. Hart was the first Western Movie Superstar of them all! Hart was also born the year the Civil War ended. He later on learned and experienced many things about the real west, during his travels as a youth throughout the untamed places he visited. The strange thing to consider, if not, realize was that he became a trained and distinguished Shakespearean actor first, before embarking on a motion picture career full-time in 1914. Of course, there were other actors in silent films who become well known western players before Hart, but none of them held on to the vast amount of popularity Hart managed to achieve. The main reason for Hart's success and admiration came due to his stark realism and fastidious means of recreating western life that he really knew about. Hart approached his films with an adult posture that wasn't based around an artificial method of glamorization. His films were dead-serious in their storyline and characters. There were times his films had something of a documentary style and look that appeared as if they were authentic events. Perhaps his greatest contribution came with the various plot formulas he introduced to the western genre, such as the basic gunslinger who turns out good and gives a redeeming aspect to the storyline. This and other characteristics would later on be adapted by so many other actors and filmmakers for the western film.
So, you might ask why isn't Hart remembered so fondly or from the viewpoint of his innovated techniques? It's believed that by the time of the Golden Age of The Silent Movie, during the 1920's, the western film had turned into a major, spectacular adventure yarn, especially with such stars as Tom Mix and others who performed in a lively manner as to create more a myth about the western heros than the reality Hart strove to create. The onslaught of the glizty western movie, right into the "talking-picture" era spelled an end to Hart's methods and style of story telling. With the coming of Duke Wayne and John Ford, the western movie managed to achieve a high status and respect that was in some ways similar to what Hart always envisioned. Even though Duke was more prone to feel influenced by Harry Carey, there can be no doubt that Hart was always lingering somewhere to what would later make Duke the greatest of all Western Superstar the world as ever known.

When I was a kid, some fifty years ago, we actually did hear of Hart. His name came up in discussions of the silent era and the history of westerns. In period pictures such as THE DARK AT THE TOP OF THE STAIRS, he's mentioned in that "household name" light, the way John Wayne is now. But you're right. So much time has passed, my generation has forgotten much of what we were told. And virtually nobody from Hart's own time survives.

It's John Wayne. There's no contest with anyone else who's ever lived. Regardless of who the OP was speaking with who didn't know him, John Wayne still makes annual polls of favorite movie stars. Year after year after year. In 2010 he was voted the Number 3 movie star, on the Harris Poll. He is always the only non-current actor who makes the list.

"Who's the Greatest? William S. Hart! No really, without Bill Hart, Wayne and Eastwood's Western Characters/Persona's simply would not exist. It was Hart who originated the strong Silent loner Anti-hero type."
I've never seen a William S. Hart movie, but I have no doubt that he is the pioneer of the western genre, and certainly did originate the strong, silent type that we have seen personified by most western actors who came along since. But I don't quite buy the theory that Wayne and Eastwood's characters would not exist were it not for Hart. Wayne was what he was, and Eastwood is what he is. Their characterizations came from their own personality. I think we would have had them as they were with or without William S. Hart. But yes, I agree he paved the way.
Wayne was never the strong, silent type, by the way. Most, or all of his westerns are wordy, dialogue-filled dramas with lots of macho behavior and little action.
Eastwood, on the other hand was the strong, silent type who used spare dialogue and plenty of action to entertain his audience.
However, as has been pointed out, Wayne's sheer number of westerns in his body of work make him the ultimate western hero in films. So he has my vote.
But my 3 personal favorites in westerns are Gary Cooper, Randolph Scott and Tom Selleck.

He didn't get into all that many westerns, but I'd go with Robert Ryan over any of em. Nothing against The Duke, but Ryan's portrayals are infinitely more complex and interesting.
Wayne was pretty strong and pretty silent. He engaged in conversation. But he spoke bluntly and to the point. And when he finished, the discussion was over! Alan Alda is talkative!

Well okay, this is an interetig question, because The Duke and Mr. Make-My-Day are from completely diffferent sides of the dessert. While I like both of them, I definitely think The Duke was more along the linesof "The Ultimate" cowboy hero, because he did such impressionable works of art on the screen for people of all ages. I mean Clint Eastwood did to an extent, but his movies reached a certain audiance Those would were attracted to them were of the older generation and mostly men, correct me if i'm wrong about the gender thing. he movies with Wayne were being enjoyed by all ages and not only by men. Maybe the reason I say that, is because I prefer wayne to Eastwood in many aspects, although Eastwood did have the more charismatic approach to being around women, where Wayne was more on the macho side and rough with his women, not that that was a bad thing. Heehee!
What preferred Eastwood inwas more along the lines of whe was younger and not quite the hero yet, like in The First Traing Saleslady. I mean he didn't have the biggest part, but he was TOO CUTE for words and the perfect match for Carol Channing at the time. He was her rough rder on a horse that is practically every girl's dream.
But then I go back to The Duke and when I span over all his movies, I just get this rough guy with a hard exterior, but a soft inside that was all gooey and mushy when a girl showed him the way it was, forget the fact that he killed all those bad guys in one blink of an eye without even trying and making it look like the easiest thing in the world.
I don't know, I think my vote goes to The Duke, but that may just be me and my opinion silliness. Heehee!
...oh! Ad I just met these extremely loverly people in Starbucks while typing on here that noticed I wso TCM and asked me about it. They were from the generation of the 50's, I think, and they are hardcore John Wayne fans, apparently. So we got into this cute little discussion about the difference between Mr. Eastwood and the Duke and they said it was a hard decision too, but then one of them told this awesome story about how his.....sister's husband's sister (golly I hope I got that right) met Mr. Wayne in the 60's and her twin boys were about 5 years old at the time and she asked if he could meet them, because they were BIG fans of his, so he naturally told her to go to the hotel he was staying at in their town. When they got there, the press was waiting down stairs for a big press release for one of his new movies he had just finished filming and he let the press wait for two more hours, while he played with those boys in the hotel room..How gentlemanly is that! Who has stories like that nowadays?! I mean, really! I was enthralled in this story while the nice gentleman told me about it.
That story really has nothing to do with how good of a western hero he was, but I just wanted to tell it o everyone. Heehee!
ennisdelmar2
Having read pages and pages of replies to this question, I've come to the conclusion that the overwhelming answer for most people is Wayne. But what I find interesting is that so many of the Wayne supporters have to add some little comment along the lines of "not even a contest" or " this isn't even close" or something to that effect. Ok, guys, you win. ......by the way, I still stand by my original answer. Clint Eastwood.
ultimate western hero? William S. Hart

That was the silent era. How about the. . .
Ultimate Singing Cowboy?
I just read a biographical sketch of Hart. Without him, there would have been no Wayne or Eatwood.
I stand with Gary Cooper--If you could have asked John Wayne this question, he would have said Coop also.

I'd have to go with the Matinee Western heroes like William Boyd, Tim Holt, Tom Tyler, and so on. My favorite was Lash LaRue and his sidekick Al Fuzzy St. John. They were some fun Westerns to watch growing up and just as much fun now.

I'm not a Wayne fan, nor a fan of Clint's spaghetti westerns. But, from their output, and popularity, I'd have to admit that either one is a reasonable pick. But, neither is in any of my favorite westerns, which are:
*The Little Big Man*
*Blood on the Moon*
*One-Eyed Jacks*
*The Appaloosa*
*The Ox-Bow Incident*
*The Westerner*
*Destry Rides Again*
*Dead Man*

Our mediators are skilled divorce attorneys, now working exclusively in mediation.
Our Attorney-Mediators have chosen mediation over litigation for one reason; it's better. After years in the courtroom, our Attorney-Mediators have seen the disfunction, the corruption and the unjust outcomes of the divorce and family courts, first-hand. Families who are already in stressful turmoil are forced through a process which costs a fortune, sometimes takes years, and creates further animosity between the parties.
Divorce lawyers typically lengthen the process in order to bill more and during that time create more anxiety with offensive strategies which are borderline unethical. Our Attorney-Mediators left that program in the interest of helping these families to continue to work together, even through separation, creating a less stressful, empowered and fair environment, the positive results of which are felt by the entire family. Our Attorney-Mediators also are able to draft all of your legal documents so that you do not have to hire an outside attorney, which takes all the risk out of having anything lost in translation.
Our Mediators are not social workers, they are not therapeutic counselors; they are highly educated, highly experienced professionals who there to help families to accomplish a smarter divorce.
Mediators Certified under Part 146 of NYS Unified Court System's ADR Programs.
While all of the Mediators in every Talk Mediation Center are Attorneys, and qualified to handle divorces or any family issues, legally speaking, they are also all trained and certified in the same "Understanding Based" Mediation method.
The intensive, advanced, 40 hour mediation course, which each mediator at Talk Mediation has had to complete, was created by Mediation pioneers, Sequoia Stadler and Adam Berner, who have been developing methods and rules for Divorce and Family Mediation, for over 30 years, with the New York Center for Interpersonal Development and the NY and NJ courts. We have searched far and wide for a better certification for our mediators and have yet to find one which is even close.
At Talk Mediation, not only will your Attorney-Mediator be well versed in the law, but will be an expert in collaborative conflict resolution. A peaceful, amicable, legally sound resolution is most easily attained with our qualified Attorney Mediators.
Your Attorney/Mediator can have your divorce finished in weeks, not years.
A typical divorce, where both parties hire attorneys and deal with the perplexities of the court, is dragged out for a very long time. The longer a lawyer can have you as a client, the longer he can make money on your case.
Your attorney has no interest in settling your divorce quickly and amicably, whether it is possible or not. Instead, your lawyer will likely choose a much more argumentative approach, pinning you against your spouse and telling you that it is in your best interest. Your court appearances will be far and few between, literally months apart, and all the while, your finances and property will be frozen (except for the money you'll be paying your attorney), your children will be in limbo and your tension and frustration levels will continue to climb, all to reach a conclusion which could have been reached in only weeks with an attorney/mediator at Talk Mediation.
Your divorce is given meaningful, experienced attention at Talk Mediation from licensed attorneys, ensuring a fair, low stress financially manageable and legally sound divorce in a time-frame that you and your spouse are comfortable with. Don;t let lawyers and court calendars control your life. Take control of it yourselves, at Talk Mediation.
Better results than with Divorce Court at a fraction of the cost.
If you know anyone who has gotten a divorce, ask them how it went with their attorney. We're willing to bet that they'll tell you it took forever, that it was a fortune and that overall, it was a horrible experience. At Talk Mediation, our attorney-mediators are not exclusively concentrating on mediation because they can make more money than they did in court; they aren't doing it because they're counselors or social workers who saw an opportunity at a better hourly rate.
Our attorney-mediators chose to leave the courtroom in favor of the mediation room because it is better, because it is smarter, because it is financially responsible and above all, because it is more fair to everyone involved. At Talk Mediation, you will get all of the expertise of a divorce or family law attorney but at a fraction of the cost. We make sure that you and your spouse, and when applicable, your children, are all going to be okay at the end of the divorce because that's simply how it should be.
We work with you to make sure that there is little to fight about, but lots to discuss, like reasonable people, working together to do what is right. You'll end up, close to where you might have after a year and a half in court but without the finger-pointing, the passive-aggressive strategies and the justified resentment caused by your hired guns who will tell you they are looking out for your best interests but are truly in the business for one obvious reason.
At Talk Mediation, most divorces are handled in 3-5 two hour long sessions which are scheduled on your time-frame; not the Court's. After every issue, large or small, has been addressed and agreed on, your attorney- mediator will make sure that all of your paperwork is finished, reflecting all of your well thought out decisions, and articulated with the legal expertise only attorneys can bring but at a fraction of the cost.
Don't do yourself, your spouse or your children the disservice of going to divorce attorneys before checking in with us. They will drain you, emotionally, financially, and physically; without regret. We know this because we lived it for years. We are not okay with it and there is no reason why you should fall victim to the system, just because its what's been done for so long. So before you call a high-priced attorney, call 585-222-TALK and learn how we can help.

Christmas Showcase at Corby Technical School»
Christmas Showcase at Corby Technical School
Students from all Year groups took part in an amazing festive Showcase at Corby Technical School, with the evening being hosted by two Year 9 students.
Samuel and Finlay were drafted in to introduce the acts and provide a bit of comedy on the night. They certainly rose to the challenge with Principal Angela Reynolds describing their performance as fantastic, despite it being the first time they had fronted a show.
The acts included musicians, dancers, solo singers, rappers and the school choir, Vox. The staff also got in on the fun performing mini panto, Paul Pan. They and some of the acts reprised their performances the following day for CTS students and staff who hadn't seen the previous show.
Samuel said: 'We decided to work together on a double act. We didn't script it but tried to put some jokes between the acts to get the audience on board. It was quite high energy. My favourite act was Seth who was rapping Ladbroke Grove.'
Finlay said: 'We were bouncing things off each other and it definitely helped having the other person there on stage. Overall it went really well and it has definitely increased our confidence. We would like to do it again if we got the chance. My favourite act was James who performed a song. On the night he walked out, was blowing kisses to the audience and was really confident.'
Principal Angela Reynolds said: 'This was a great showcase which showed off the many talents of our students. Samuel and Finlay were great comperes, like mini Ant and Dec, and they certainly got the crowd going. It was a perfect evening and I am so proud of everybody involved. It was a great end to the term. Thanks to everyone who took part.'

Flashpoints: England v Pakistan, second Test – day 2
by Ben Gardner June 2, 2018 - 8:00pm 5 minute read
It would have been England's day again had they not lost as many wickets as they did in the final session. Still, by the time stumps were drawn on the second day at Headingley, the home side had an 128-run lead, posting 302/7. Jos Buttler was left guiding a nervous tail, though, against the Pakistan pace duo of Mohammad Amir and Mohammad Abbas, who were hitting the right lengths and making the second new ball dance.
It took its time coming, but it was a much better display from Pakistan than the one they managed on the first day. Buttler will now hope to farm as much of the strike as possible and power a big lead on the third day.
Starts, but no more
All nine of England's batsmen so far have made between 16 and 49
Here's how the day progressed.
Ebbs & Flows: How day 2 unfolded
Given the way the day started, it seemed unlikely there would be any play at all. A persistent drizzle washed out the first session, and it wasn't until midway through what would originally have been the second session that play began, at 2.45pm local time.
Pakistan would have hoped the late dismissal of Alastair Cook on the first evening would have swung things their way, but instead, Joe Root and Dominc Bess found the fence a few times, giving England a quick, comfortable start.
Just when it seemed things were slipping away from Pakistan, Mohammad Amir induced an edge off Root (45), and a jubilant celebration signified the importance of that wicket.
Yet again, England fought back. Bess was joined by David Malan, and the two added 62 important runs for the fourth wicket, taking England into tea with a lead of 25.
It was once again Amir who broke the stand, snorting Malan (28) with extra bounce, the chance being pouched by first slip. It was a near-unplayable delivery, and Pakistan sensed an opening.
Then, Shadab Khan conjured the all-important wicket of Dom Bess. The youngster, sent in as nightwatchman, impressed during his 49, but Shadab cramped him for room and induced an edge. Two early wickets in the final session, and Pakistan were back in it.
And then, Pakistan seemed to give it all away. Buttler dragged a pull off Khan straight to Hasan Ali at mid-wicket. He couldn't get his hands up in time, though, and managed to merely fend it away to the fence. Shadab's furious reaction signified Pakistan knew how costly that drop could prove.
Even as Buttler went about rubbing Pakistan's noses in it, Bairstow survived after reviewing an lbw decision, having shouldered arms to be trapped in front. He then failed to make the life count, Faheem Ashraf inducing a thick edge, just before the second new ball was due.
Chris Woakes partnered Buttler and did well enough to keep Mohammads Amir and Abbas, at bay, even if he rode his luck a few times. Eventually, however, Abbas induced an edge with a peach, and Woakes was sent back late in the day.
Buttler, with Sam Curran for company, saw out the remainder of the day's play. Buttler will resume the third morning knowing plenty rests on his shoulders.
Moment of the day – Jos Buttler's drop
This has the makings of a drop that could define the game. The big-hitter was on four when Hasan Ali fumbled a straightforward catch at mid-wicket. He went on to score an unbeaten 34, and these runs, along with any he scores on the third morning, could be what the match comes down to.
Dom Bess impressed again
Man of the hour – Dom Bess
Dom Bess walked out as a nightwatchman on the first day, but he may well have been a top-order batsman. His 95-ball 49, laced with seven fours, was an all-round display of batsmanship – solid when he needed to be, aggressive when the moment presented itself. His 62-run partnership with David Malan ensured Pakistan were pegged back despite claiming the important wicket of Joe Root.
Day to forget – Joe Root
The joke that did the rounds on Twitter after Root's dismissal was that the England captain had managed to, finally, reverse his failure to convert fifty-plus scores to a century: He was dismissed for 45. At home, with a solid foundation to build on and after the start he had, this was a fine opportunity for Root to end this unwelcome streak. He made a mess of it, failing to contain a temptation to poke at a full delivery. He'll hope for better in the second innings.
Joe Root once again failed to make a big score
Tomorrow's prospect
A lot depends on Buttler, and how much he can add to the existing lead. If he can push it to anything close to 200, the Pakistan batsmen might feel the pressure, especially given how they played in the first innings.
That said, if Amir and Co. manage to snuff him out early, Pakistan will have a real opportunity to work England to the ground and set a big total. The game still has three days left in it, and they certainly have plenty of time to do that.

Turning Words into Magic and Dreamers into Millionaires
What about Social Media?
For Traditional Retail and Service Businesses
I feel a bit like the boy in the Hans Christian Andersen tale of The Emperor's New Clothes, though I'm not nearly so brave as he. You remember, don't you? Two weavers promise an Emperor a new suit of clothes that will be invisible to those unfit for their positions, stupid, or incompetent. When the Emperor parades before his subjects in his new clothes, a boy cries out, "But he isn't wearing anything at all!"
The Internet is the parade we're watching and Facebook is its emperor. I've seen "naked" and this emperor sure looks it, but I hesitate to shout it out loud because this would be tantamount to a confession of professional incompetence.
Let's face it. Those weavers have spun a pretty loud buzz with "Facebook and Twitter."
The first Internet buzzword was "eyeballs." Any site that could generate a high number of unique visitors and page views was said to be overflowing with eyeballs and its creator was considered a genius. But eyeballs didn't translate into dollars unless you delivered a message to the brain behind those eyeballs that was judged to be highly relevant and sufficiently credible.
Next it was about "going viral." My office was deluged with a river of advertisers asking, "How can we take our message viral? We want to go viral. Do you know the secret of going viral?" I told these advertisers, "Going viral is what happens when traditional word-of-mouth is empowered by digital technology. Do you have a relevant, credible message that contains at least one of the essential three word-of-mouth triggers?"
"Eyeballs" and "going viral" faded away due to a lack of success stories. I breathed a sigh of relief.
Now it's "Facebook and Twitter."
Internet acolytes say "Facebook and Twitter" in hushed tones like they're intoning a holy mantra. Gregarious extraverts say "Facebook and Twitter" like they're sharing the location of a keg party. Hungry business owners say "Facebook and Twitter" like they're asking for directions on a road trip. Aspiring young consultants say "Facebook and Twitter" with an air of condescension, as though it were "Checkmate" in a chess match.
This time I'm letting Lee Iacocca handle it:
"Talk is cheap. Where I come from, in the auto industry, you were held brutally accountable for your programs and products. The response to any idea was, 'Show me where it's working.'"
– Lee Iacocca, Where Have All the Leaders Gone? ch. 3 (2007)
Lee is right, kids. Talk is cheap. Show me where it's working. Google "Facebook success stories." I did. Prepare to be underwhelmed.
Facebook promises hypertargeting but this has been the promise of every media since the invention of advertising. Newspapers have been divided into sections for nearly a century. "Do you want to target men in the Sports section, women in the Lifestyle section, or businesspeople in the Business section?" Magazines were invented to allow us to target micro-groups that shared a common interest. Television and radio stations promise psychographic targeting through specific programming. Billboards promise tightly controlled geographic targeting. And each of these media is hampered by the same limiting factor as Facebook and Twitter. It is an inescapable truth: Response to your message will be dictated by its relevance and credibility, not by the vehicle of its delivery.
There is benefit to be had through a presence on Facebook.Twitter is a quick way to blurt 140 characters to whomever will give you a moment's attention. If you enjoy these things, do them. Your business will certainly derive some benefit.
But they are not the highest and best use of your time and energy.
This whole "Facebook and Twitter" thing reminds me of a conversation I had with a client 14 years ago in Milwaukee. Working together we had grown his business 10-fold in just 5 years. That's right, one thousand percent growth. He was swimming in cash because he was tenacious, hard-working, had excellent judgment and his employees loved him. All I had done was help him focus his message and his ad budget. When he arrived in Austin for his annual marketing retreat, he said, "This year I want to spend 20 thousand dollars of the ad budget for a country club membership. I really believe I can sell some product on the golf course." Knowing my client loved to golf, I said, "Sounds like a great idea. How often do you plan to golf?"
"Every Tuesday," he answered.
"I'm okay with this plan as long as we agree that you're going to be the one responsible for selling on the golf course, not me. If you can't make it work, it's your fault, not mine. You okay with that?"
He was okay with it. He bought the country club membership, began playing golf every Tuesday, sold a little product on the golf course and he's still a client today. But his business is now more than 50 times the size it was when we first began working together. My client continues to golf every Tuesday but he doesn't pretend that golf is what built his business.
If you like to golf, do it. Steal a few moments of your life for living. Maketime for the things that give you pleasure. Facebook is a country club membership. If connecting on Facebook is your thing, go for it.
But please, let's not pretend it's the highest and best investment of your time.

Home to serial killers Jeffrey "The Milwaukee Cannibal" Dahmer and Walter Ellis, the North Side Strangler, Milwaukee has plenty of macabre history. Justice found Dahmer and Ellis, but how many more like them went free? Nearly a century ago Molly Brennan fell victim to a depraved killer who was never identified and never brought to justice. Brennan was a Jazz Age flapper, a politician's daughter and one of Walker's Point's highest paid bordello hostesses. Her short life came to a brutal end one night, and her burnt bones buried within the walls of her brothel's penthouse amid those of sheep, goats and dogs. Was it the work of a religious zealot, attempting to cleanse her soul by fire? Or did she recognize a powerful friend of her politically connected father? No one knows, but those courageous enough to spend the night in her bed say she burns the walls every night.
Pro athletes are notoriously creeped out by Milwaukee's Pfister Hotel. Individual players, as well as entire teams, have refused to stay there. Countless others tell of flickering lights, moving furniture and ghostly apparitions. Most likely, it's just the ghost of Charles Pfister walking the grounds, making sure every guest is well cared for.
Shaker's Cigar Bar in Walker's Point is home to Elizabeth, the ghost of an 8-year-old girl who died in the 19th Century when she fell from an apple tree. Shy around adults, she's most likely to strike up a conversation with kids closer to her age. You can also spend the night in doomed Molly Brennan's old penthouse if you dare.
Five or six spirits are said to haunt the Brumder Mansion, from a practical joking doctor to a Scottish maintenance man. The ghosts seem to like the new owners and don't go out of their way to scare off guests, but they can get playful when the mood strikes. Maybe they're just fans of a good murder mystery play.

Blog / By Nick
"Let's all give thanks, where thanks Is due
Not to Religion, not to a God
But to the PEOPLE who make the world a better place
For ME and YOU"
There are some of the lyrics to Dan Barker's song "Let's All Give Thanks", which was performed at the debut of Godless Gospel at the 45th annual convention for the Freedom From Religion Foundation. I have the distinct honor of being a part of this project, which was conceptualized by Dan over 30 years ago, and was given a very soulful life and sound by creative director Andre Forbes.
Godless Gospel is personally important to me because a few years ago, Dan contacted me about his idea and asked if I knew of any former gospel musicians and/or producers. And I had the pleasure of connecting him to Andre, who found BN after a painful deconversion from religion and the gospel music world. The result is what you see in the video debut, with more to come.
Some of you may ask, why is this important? Because Black Nonbelievers not only provides community, representation, and support for a still small but growing demographic, we are also creating opportunities for our members and partners alike to make history with groundbreaking material and expand on the artistry that was once thought to be relegated to religious communities. While the word "gospel" has taken on a religious context, it simply means "good story" at its root. And what better way to spread OUR good stories through music that can be enjoyed by many.
This is a huge part of the community AND liberation work that we are proud to bring to you. Which is still very much needed. And speaking of need, we are looking for more voices to fill our ensemble, so please submit your audition to the Godless Gospel website or share with anyone who may be interested.
The 2022 holiday season is upon us, and I want to thank you all once again for your generous support throughout the year. Also, Giving Tuesday is November 29th, and I would once again like to ask for your consideration for Black Nonbelievers. Together, we are STILL changing lives, for the better.
Have a safe, secular, and joyous season.

Fewer acres were offered for auction this week as compared to last week. 1,282 acres were auctioned, of which 991 were tillable. All farms sold. The realtors I have been visiting with have stated the amount of phone calls they are getting from people thinking of selling have really increased from a month ago. We will see if more land comes up for auction in the coming months.

Hold everything equal and offer no insight posted by Razib @ 7/03/2009 04:40:00 PM
Hold everything equal and offer no insight
I was listening to Marketplace the other day and Kevin Hassett delivered a commentary combining economics with a revisionist evaluation of the American Revolution. Hassett's argument seems to be that the Revolution, which was notionally predicated on taxation without representation, will in the long run be a historical blip of no consequence as the United States converges upon the same tax and spend structure as the United Kingdom. From this convergence of tax and expenditure structures Hassett infers an eventual closing of the $10,000 GDP per capita gap between the United States and the United Kingdom. What therefore was the point of breaking away if 200 years later the USA is going to be so similar to the United Kingdom?
There are many ways to critique this sort of analysis, but there are two major issues that I jumped out for me. First, 200 years is not a trivial interval of time, especially when taking into account the large numbers of Americans who lived between then and now. To view economic history as convergence toward equilibria as a few parameters are modulated at some point in the future seems worthless, just as pointing out that the Sun will go nova, or that the universe may be doomed to heat death. There is a big difference between asserting that the GDP per capita gap will close within 10 years, and within 100 years. Tractable and elegant macroeconomic models may be mostly junk over the short term, but I'm pretty sure that they're total junk over the long term. Inferences from stylized facts may provoke, but spare me the assumption that that the error bars of projections aren't so huge as to make them useless even for government work. Second, it isn't as if the only things that separate the United States and the United Kingdom are institutional frameworks. Even within the United States there is quite a bit of regional variation in culture. Perhaps Hassett would say that specific variation in the instantiation of human capital is totally irrelevant, but most people wouldn't assume that as a given. Secondarily there is a sense here that historical contingency doesn't exist, that there is no path dependence in economic development. So the 200 year interval whereby the American Revolution served as an exogenous shock which tore the thirteen colonies out of the British Empire had no significant effect by shifting initial parameters in a manner which might "lock in" a bias toward some developmental paths as opposed to others. But evaluated over a long enough interval all historical events can be marginalized as futile acts against the trendline, whatever it is.
Instead of using an abstract framework riddled with assumptions that many people would find laughable, why not go the route of pointing to the nature of the British settler colonies which did not revolt, but eventually became independent? Obviously Australia, Canada and New Zealand are different in myriad ways from the United States, but are the comparisons more strained than the model that Hassett posits?

Genoa travel souvenir | Where to buy
Are you looking for a souvenir of Genoa? Don't worry and take a look at the official souvenirs of the city. Bring always with you a symbol of this wonderful place!
Genoa (in italian, Genova) is the capital city of the Region of Liguria and is a glorious port town, with a long history as powerful and rich port centre. Among all it's magnificent hidden and exclusive characteristics there are some at every tourist cannot miss, especially those that make the trip memorable and give a chance to always carry in heart this wonderful experience called Genoa. Blog dei Preziosi will recommend two Genoa travel souvenirs that will give you the opportunity to buy something unique and typical of this fantastic city.
Genoa travel souvenir
Like Rome, Venice and Florence, also Genoa has its unique symbols that characterize it and that will be seen several times visiting the town in its streets and its ancient alleys. The two most famous symbols, the ones that made it famous in history, are St. George slaying the Dragon and, of course, city emblem composed of two rampant gryphons to support and hold a shield with a cross.
RING OF SAINT GEORGE SLAYING THE DRAGON
The first of the two rings dedicated to the city represents the power and pride of Genoa: the battle between good, represented by St. George on horseback, and evil, represented by the dragon. This figure is visible in the fresco of the Palazzo San Giorgio. Formerly in Genoa, maritime republic, San Giorgio was worshiped at institutional level and became, along with the red cross on white field flag, the symbol of the Republic of Genoa.
Even today the symbol of St. George uses in the emblem of the capital city of Liguria. The cult of St. George, originally revered in the East, began in Europe as a result of the Crusades in the Holy Land.
More precisely at the time of the Battle of Antioch in 1098 when the crusaders and British leaders were rescued by the Genoese by which they overturned the fate of the battle and allowed the taking of the city at that time was considered impregnable. According to the legend, St. George would be shown to the fighters accompanied by dazzling heavenly creatures with flags on which stood out a red cross on a white field.
RING DETAILS: This ring is realized with a natural shell cameo engraved by hand; material is 925 sterling silver, with black rhodium plating and it can fit any finger size. The price of this souvenir is €135,00 and each purchase funds the children's hospital of Genoa. More details can be found at this LINK.
CITY EMBLEM RING
There are many elements that distinguish the emblem of Genoa: the center is the crusader shield that links to the legend of St. George and the values of victory and liberation; at the sides are present two gryphons, chimeric animals, powerful, fierce and vigilant guardians of wealth. At the top is placed the ducal crown and the base sees the presence of a bronze rostrum of Roman ship at whose center there is a shell with palm branches, symbolizing the commitment of Genoa during the Crusades in the Holy Land.
RING DETAILS: This ring is realized with a cameo of natural shell engraved by hand; material is 925 sterling silver with white cubic zirconia and it can fit any finger size. The price of this souvenir is €130,00. As the one before, also this purchase funds the children's hospital of the city. More details can be found at this LINK.
TWO NEW DIFFERENT SHAPES
In 2016 has been created two new masterpieces dedicated to tourists, always reflecting the most important symbols of Genoa: the historical coat of arms and the Lighthouse (commonly called Lantern of Genoa). The Lighthouse of Genoa has always been the symbol of the city: the building that has been topographically identified since the 1400s, and its image with the municipal coat of arms painted on the bottom of the tower (since 1340) is repeated in all ancient maps and nautical maps. It stood on the small hill that once was the last part of the imposing promontory – said Capo di Faro or Promontorio di San Benigno, in relation to the homonymous convent that was there – protecting the gulf of the city to the west.
RING DETAILS: Those two rings are made using only hypoallergenic 925 silver, and bring the two sculptures on the upper plateau and sides. The "Genoa" word is also visible on one side. Ring size is adjustable at wish. Price is the same, €100,00 for Coat of Arms or Lantern.
Where to buy the Genoa travel souvenir
The two rings of the city of Genoa can be bough in Genoa Pegli, a small delegation in the typical suburb of Genoa. The town, famous for its parks, overlooks the sea and can be reached it by boat as well as in the classic ways (train, bus and car). They are sold from Cicala Jewelry Shop.

SPX hit the primary downtrend line today (thick blue line). This trend line should turn SPX back and forcing it heading south again. A solid close above this line (i.e. SPX closing at 1120 or higher) would very likely push SPX higher to its 50 D-SMA, around 1140 (green curve).
If this Market is heading substantially lower, it should start that way tomorrow.
