During breaks from their full-time touring and recording, from 1999 to 2003, three-quarters of the iconic PANTERA (Vinnie Paul, Rex Brown and Dimebag Darrell) joined Metal forces with the legendary Country Outlaw, David Allan Coe, to form a band and record an album appropriately called: Rebel Meets Rebel (Big Vin Records). D.A.C. and CFH (Cowboys From Hell). A new brand of Metal was born!
I remember like it was yesterday, when I bought Rebel Meets Rebel! I was happier than a farm hog in a pit of stinky hot mud, as I trotted out of my local Super Walmart with this CD in hand. Hell, this was a CD that boasted the guitar prowess of (the late) Dimebag Darrell! From the first moment Nothin’ To Lose started playing, I knew this supergroup was beyond special! I played this CD multiple times everyday, for at least a year! That’s how much I enjoyed this CD and STILL DO enjoy it!
Crank Up Nothin’ To Lose!! Hell Yeah!!
Rebel Meets Rebel is a keeper for life, for me. This CD is so rich with the spirit, vibes and sounds of Country/Southern Metal that it’s dizzying to put into words! Believe me, I consider it a blessing that these four legends decided to record these twelve songs together. It’s just so sad that Dimebag Darrell was not here to see Rebel Meets Rebel released; as it was truly embraced by his fans and climbed the Billboard Album Charts.
From many a PANTERA interview and article I’ve read over the years, combined with this CD’s liner notes, Dimebag Darrell was a huge fan of David Allan Coe. I can understand why. David Allan Coe’s resume speaks for itself and his rebellious songs are stuff of Country Music legend. David Allan Coe’s vocals just comes across as his being one tough son-of-a-bitch and gritty Rock ‘N Roll outlaw, while he surely savored every moment, on every song this CD has to offer! David Allan Coe is credited with writing all the lyrics for these songs as well.
Dimebag Darrell is superb on guitar, his licks and riffs being so freaking heavy as shit! When anyone ever asks me what Country Metal is, I respond: Rebel Meets Rebel and D.A.C. with the CFH! Vinnie Paul and Rex Brown are (of course) terrific on drums and bass, respectively. Man, as I write this, I get so pissed off that Dimebag Darrell was taken from us all; he never deserved to die so young and so violently by a psychopath. As fans, we are truly blessed to have the music that Dimebag Darrell has left for us.
My favorite song (out of favorite songs) on Rebel Meets Rebel is: Cowboys Do More Dope. I just love, love that song! It’s a song that puts me in a freaking great mood in a micro second! It may not be the fastest Metal song ever; yet it’s one of the heaviest of Metal songs I’ve ever enjoyed, time and again! To paraphrase what David Allan Coe writes in the liner notes: this was to be the first time that the Country and Metal genres were to fuse in such a circumstance; however, Metallica and Garth Brooks get credit for doing it first. It figures. Despite how the timeline of events happened, as David Allan Coe wrote in the CD’s liner notes: “we are the real deal as they say, we are the Cowboys From Hell, that’s for real.”
This Rebel Meets Rebel CD is the real Metal deal; it’s a thick and potent slice of imperative Metal history that can never be forgotten!
Metal be thy name. – Stone
LONG LIVE DAVID ALLAN COE.
LONG LIVE VINNIE PAUL.
LONG LIVE REX BROWN.
REST IN PEACE, DIMEBAG DARRELL.

The 2nd Evergreen Literary Awards ceremony
On the morning of November 6, 2019, the 2nd Evergreen Literary Awards ceremony was held in the conference room of College of Agriculture and Life Sciences. The Evergreen Literary Awards Competition, which was held for the second time this year, was organized by the alumni association of College of Agriculture and Life Sciences to provide a chance for students who are tired of their studies and busy with their current work to pause for a while to feel the loneliness of autumn, share appreciation, and rest. The competition was held in two categories, creative poetry and creative essay, for undergraduate and graduate students of College of Agriculture and Life Sciences as well as alumni and faculty members. Work materials presented were about evergreen, flower, human, life, and nature, which are representative images of College of Agriculture and Life Sciences in previous years.
The awards ceremony first began with congratulatory remarks from the alumni association chairman Byung-ryun Seo and encouragement from the dean Suk-ha Lee. Since then, judges of each section of poetry and essays commented. This year, as they evaluated outstanding writings of alumni, they invited the poet and literary doctor Hae Il Son to judge the poetry section and essay writer Soon Hyung Lee to judge the essay section. Judges stated that it was extremely challenging to screen the winners because many excellent works were received. In addition, they received many excellent poems and essays among not awarded works and stated that it was a pleasant experience to read literary works with various and novel perspectives.
In this competition, 12 essays and 18 poems were submitted. Among them, one was selected as the first prize, two for the excellence awards, and five for the runner-ups positions. It was meaningful that alumni from a wide range of ages, from freshmen in 2019 to alumni in 1970, participated and won awards. Subsequently, the awards ceremony was held. The essay section award was presented by the dean Suk-Ha Lee and the poet section award was presented by the chairman of the Byung-Ryun Seo alumni. Myeong-chae Yoo (Department of Plant Science), who won the grand prize, expressed impressions of winning, and Ha-young Choi(Department of Plant Science) in the poetry section recited the poem “germination,” which was touching. After the ceremony, it was an affluent autumn afternoon, with a photoshoot, luncheon, and talk.
This time, the student reporters met Myeong-chae Yoo who won the best award in the essay category for his work called “Island”.
When asked about his motivation to apply for the Evergreen Literature Award, he said that “After seeing the notice posted on the Kakao Talk group chat, I applied for the prize because I thought I have written an essay appropriate for the topic”. The winning work of Myeong-chae Yoo was a story about the “flower,” among the publicly announced topics, his story when he was in the military in 2016. When asked about his thoughts while writing, he replied “The most important part of the competition is that it is highly related to the theme,” and “I did not write an emotional story with ‘I’”. As for the reason for writing this way, he said “It is good to take a step back and deliver it realistically. I think that if the artist’s arbitrary interpretation enters, it can interfere with the interpretation of the reader”. Furthermore, about the evergreen literary contest, he stated that “It is characterized by a wide range of themes unlike general contests with a clear purpose. I think we can encourage participation of students of College of Agriculture and Life Sciences who are interested in literature through more aggressive promotion”.
In fact, the amount of work submitted to this year’s evergreen literary contest was less than that submitted in previous years. This was because the deadline for submission had been on October 31 last year, but this year was earlier, that is, September 30. In addition, the consensus was formed that the prize money was not large at the awards ceremony, and the alumni revealed that they plan to raise the prize money of the 3rd Evergreen Literary Prize next year to 1 million won and hope that more students and alumni participate. To evaluate literary attainments of the applicants more objectively, ≥3 poems and ≥2 essays will be asked to be submitted. Therefore, interested students and alumni are encouraged to begin thinking about what to submit from this fall.

I have to cook for three teenage boys.
I do. I fight not to have the carbs they need.
I stay beneath calorie count.
I’ve learned a lot from Kathleen, from our healthy meals, our daily treks on the sand.
But I’m disappointed when I climb the big hill by my house, that long mile that ascends. I look at Jerry and laugh. “I guess I’m still not in as good as shape as I thought I was back at sea level.”
Yup. I’m back home.
A mile high.
Real Time Update:
It was so much easier to eat low calorie when I didn’t have to worry about growing boys. I still struggle with this issue.
What About You?
How do you stay on the weight loss journey when you’re around others who need more calories than you do–especially if you’re the cook?
Tagged: back home, candle light, carbs, losing weight while cooking for the family, readjusting to real life, teenage boys, walking
Its easy for me as I just have to cook for myself. But how do you do it Paula you are at a BeNew convention and you still write your blog. I love it!!! Have fun Ok and I do hope there are movies of your modeling along with everyone else. Wish I could be there!!!
I just scheduled it ahead of time, Rosemary. ;o) The BeNew celebration last night was fantastic.I had so much fun and dug deep to find the inner ham. She’s easily accessible in familiar crowds . . . but it’s been a long time since i needed to be a ham on stage! It felt great.
Lately I’ve been cooking everything from scratch trying to use fresh healthy ingredients. My men are both skinnies who eat loads but I give them bigger portions, especially of the carb stuff. They don’t really notice that the food is lower in fat and sugar but p, even though they’re thin I guess it must be doing their health good too 🙂
Thank you for your thoughts, Marie. I think we have a similar situation going. My boys are not overweight–but they eat more than anybody we’ve been around–even other teenage boys! I love the potatoes and pasta and stuff like that that they need, but I don’t need the calories. I’ve done as you have and just tried to eat less of it . . .
Sometimes, when they break out the biscuit tin, I could strangle them! Lol (that’s cookies by the way)
You make me smile, Marie. I hear ya. And I love that you are so far away across the ocean where cookies are biscuits and we get to be friends. My son made blueberry scones today . . and yes, I had one.

Edwin Smith’s photograph offers a glimpse of the spectacular stone roof of Divinity School, Oxford, through the carved wooden panels of Convocation House
Built between 1427 and 1483, the Divinity School in Oxford is the oldest purpose-built university building still in use today. Rectangular in shape, it is physically attached to the Bodleian Library to the east and is connected at its west end to the Convocation House, added in the 1630s. This photograph shows the Convocation House’s beautiful original panelling with pedimented arches and the plain stalls with balls on the ends, and offers a glimpse of the spectacular stone-vaulted roof of the Divinity School, one of the highlights of late Gothic architecture in the country. The elaborate lierne or stellar vaulting is enriched with more the 400 carved bosses, one of which bears the name of its creator, local master mason William Orchard. Visible through the door are the transverse arches that bear the main weight of the roof and the exquisite pendants with small carved figures. This beautiful composition, leading the eye towards the main space and using the soft light to highlight the texture of the wood panelling, was taken by the great British photographer Edwin Smith in 1959.

In the agency’s annual letter outlining the NCUA’s supervisory priorities, Hood also said that NCUA Connect, a common entry point for authorized users to gain access to NCUA applications, also will be made available this year.
The NCUA has conducted a limited launch of the MERIT system.
Hood said that unlike the current examination process, known as AIRES, credit unions will be able to use MERIT for several activities, including the secure transferring of documents, providing status updates, requesting due date changes on corrective actions and securely accessing completed examinations.
In his letter, Hood provided details of the agency’s supervisory priorities for the year:
Bank Secrecy Act & Anti-Money LaunderingHood said the agency will continue to emphasize the need for credit unions to comply with customer due diligence and beneficial ownership rules that went into effect in May 2018.
The agency also will work with other banking regulators on such issues as updates to the BSA/AML examination manual, providing clarification and ways to improve required filings on transactions and ensuring that they are filed in a timely fashion.
The NCUA also will work with other regulators on issuing guidance on “politically exposed persons.”
A politically exposed person is defined as someone who has been entrusted with a high-profile political function and who may be more exposed to bribery as a result of the position her or she may hold.
Consumer Financial ProtectionThe scope of consumer financial protection reviews is largely risk-focused and are based on a credit union’s compliance record, products or services and any new or emerging concerns, Hood said.
He added that each year, the NCUA selects specific consumer financial protection rules on which to focus during exams.
In 2020, the agency intends to focus on compliance with the Electronic Fund Transfer Act, fair credit reporting, the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act requirements for the handling of non-public information about consumers, and percentage rate and late charge issues in the Truth in Lending Act.
The agency also will test for compliance with small dollar lending rules, including those associated with the Payday Alternative Loan model. NCUA examiners also will determine whether short-term, small-dollar loans that are not modeled on the PAL program comply with federal rules.
NCUA board member Todd Harper has called for the agency to implement a separate consumer protection examination and asked that three staff members be hired to develop that test.
The agency board last month adopted its 2020 budget without those additional staff members included, although board member J. Mark McWatters expressed some sympathy with Harper’s position.
Credit RiskAgency examiners also will determine if credit unions analyze the ability of borrowers to meet debt service requirements without undue reliance on the value of collateral.
The agency also this year will implement enhanced examination procedures for credit unions with high concentrations of a specific loan type.
The NCUA has come under fire for its supervision of credit unions that held a high concentration of tax-medallion loans. The failure of two credit unions that held taxi medallions as collateral cost the Share Insurance Fund more than $700 million.
CybersecurityIn 2018, the NCUA began using the Automated Cybersecurity Examination Tool, which is now being updated. Credit unions will be able to complete self-assessments through the updated tool this year.
The agency also will continue its cybersecurity assessments for credit unions with assets over $250 million and begin completing assessments with those with assets of more than $100 million.
Liquidity RisksExaminers will review credit union liquidity management and planning this year, with a particular focus on credit unions with low levels of on-balance sheet liquidity.
Agency examiners also will assess the potential impact of changing interest rates and credit union contingency plans.
Other issuesThe NCUA will assess the possible impact that LIBOR cessation may have on credit unions, as well as planning for the new Current Expected Credit Losses standard.
The agency also said it expects to update its guidance for credit unions that provide services to hemp-related businesses.

Terry Boothman, the editor of the Writer Online,
had this to say about it in the January 14, 2003, issue that
carried the story:
Everyone's life is interesting, right? Sure. So, everyone should write a memoir, right? Yeah, why not.. And everyone should publish a memoir, right? Good Lord, no. Because not everyone knows how to write a publishable memoir, which means a memoir that lots of other people will enjoy reading. Sonia Pressman Fuentes, one of the founders of the National Organization for Women, published just such a memoir--"Eat First--You Don't Know What They'll Give You, The Adventures of an Immigrant Family and Their Feminist Daughter." Now, in How I Got My Mink Stole, excerpted from that memoir, you can get a glimpse of exactly how good memoirs are written.

- Eating Out -- published in the April 11, 2001, issue of Writer's Bloc Online, the e-newsletter of the National Writers Union.
- Graduating With My Class -- Fuentes' desire to graduate with her high school class has a significant consequence. Published originally in the Catskill/Hudson Jewish Star 6.2 (June 1996) 17.1 and then on Harry Leichter's website.
- Mother and the Night School -- published in the December 2001, issue of Kolot, A World of Jewish Voices.

Follow the Leaders
With female law-school students soon to outnumber men, equality is fast becoming a reality
By Karen DeCrow, Syracuse New Times
April 11-18, 2001
The promising news on the front page of The New York Times: Women may be taking over the legal profession. (Not my goal. Only kidding. All I want is equality.) For the fall 2000 class at law schools, 49.4 percent of the students were female. "As of March 9," the newspaper reported, "more women than men had applied for admission to law schools this fall."
Therefore, it is expected that in fall 2001 the majority of law students in the United States will be female. According to the Times, the change is expected to result in more leadership roles not only in law firms, law-school faculties and the judiciary, but in politics and business.
This is up from 4 percent of law students in 1960, and 10 percent in 1970. Although 10 percent of the law students were female in 1970, only 3 percent of the practicing lawyers were. And pioneers they were.
Sonia Pressman Fuentes, the first woman attorney in the general counsel's office at the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, and a founder of the National Organization for Women, describes her experiences in a humorous and significant book, Eat First: You Don't Know What They'll Give You (Xlibris; Philadelphia; 1999). "When my parents learned that I was considering going to law school," Fuentes recalls about the 1954 start of her legal career, "they were appalled. They had been opposed to my going to college because they felt that too much education would hinder my chances of getting married. Attending law school would, for them, put the final nail in the coffin of my spinsterhood." (Note to readers: Relax. She got married.)
Fuentes graduated from the University of Miami School of Law, got a job with the federal government, and, seeking employment in a law firm, mailed out resumes all over the country. She also advertised for a job in the ABA Journal and attended every type of networking event she could think of.
At one interview with a law firm she asked for $10,000 a year. The interviewing partner told her, "Why, if we paid you that you'd be making more than some of the men in this office." He also added to the cost of her salary the price of building a women's restroom for her, and the difficulty of enforcing a rule against profanity, which her employment would require. (Note to reader: Relax. She did not get that position, but she has had a fascinating and successful career.)
Fifteen years later, I started at the Syracuse University College of Law. It was 1969, and I was the only woman in my class. For years after I graduated, my mother had the composite photo of our group, the class of 1971, hanging on her wall. "When a visitor would glance in the direction of the photo, she would say, "Find my daughter." This was not difficult, as I am the only female person in the composite. "So, Karen," I was often asked graciously, "why are you taking away a place in law school from someone who plans to practice law?"
Not very long ago, most judges would not hire female law clerks, and most law firms did not recruit women. Both of our women justices on the U.S. Supreme Court, Sandra Day O'Connor and Ruth Bader Ginsburg, have tales about how impossible it was for them to get jobs after graduation from law school.
Things are not perfect. Yet. The proportion of judges, and partners in law firms, who are female has not kept up with the number of law-school graduates. According to the National Association of Law Placement, although women represent 40 percent of the associates (those working as attorneys who are not partners), fewer than 14 percent of the partners are female. Of the 655 federal district judges, only 136 are women.
In my opinion, there are enough women in the pipeline, in law, medicine and business, that the leadership positions will come. At Yale Law School, for example, the administration went out of its way to recruit women students in 1996. But they no longer take any special steps, because the numbers continue to rise without any particular effort needed.
Perhaps the key factor for inspiring female students to attend professional schools previously open only to men, and for getting their careers on track after they graduate, is the role model, the mentor, who takes an energetic interest in the career of a young person.
So with this "more than half" news that has some of us jumping up and down in a less-than-dignified fashion, why the backlash? The new magazine Cosmo Girl, aimed at the 14-year-old of today, features an article on how women should make dinner and do the cleaning, and not do men's jobs. Talk to a teen-ager and you will probably hear, "I'm not a feminist. My mother was a feminist. Not me."
Before descending into despair, take a look at their lives. In these magazines, sprinkled in with pieces on nail polish, thigh reduction and what to say on a date so the boy won't suspect you are smart, are also articles on financial management, racism, going to graduate school and ending discrimination.
More important than the magazines they read is what young women do and plan to do. They plan college majors, professional school entrance, and careers which were not dreamed of by their grandmothers and very difficult to achieve by their mothers.
I don't care what they call themselves. As long as they go to law school, or become electricians, or veterinarians, they are feminists to me.

di·va ( P ) Pronunciation Key (dv)
n. pl. di·vas or di·ve (-v)
An operatic prima donna.
A very successful singer of non operatic music: a jazz diva
So that’s the meaning straight from the dictionary but what is the real meaning of ‘diva’? I think Arena may have the answer with their summer delight Three Mo’ Divas now mounted for your enjoyment in the Kreeger Theatre. I know some of you will think that this is just another cabaret, but this show is more than a cabaret-it’s a beautifully staged production that shows off the power and beauty of the female voice. This show has everything from Opera to Jazz to Broadway. The arrangements are exciting, engaging and purely beautiful.
So let’s start with the beautiful staging, multiple glass and steel panels that slide from side to side that allow stage depth, colorful back lighting and spots to showoff glittering costumes. And…. The Divas!
Who are the Divas? On the night I attended Gretha Boston, N’Kenge and Janet Pittman. Arena and Creator Marion Caffey have brought in six divas because according to Mr. Caffey such a diverse and difficult collection of material would be far too great a feat for just three Divas to pull off on a nightly basis. So Arena has brought in six wonderful divas for our enjoyment. Andrea Jones Sojola, Nina Negri and Vivian Reed make up the group I did not see.
Gretha Boston was simply sublime, she is in complete command of all the material she attempts — her Gospel numbers were outstanding! Jane Pittman, born in DC is a treasure, she has warmth and range in addition to a presence that is joyful. N’Kenge, who is to release a single world-wide soon was the most complete entertainer having the diva’s voice with some wonderful dance steps as well.
The show is made up of the divas singing solo and as a group. Rather than go into who sang what or what was the high or low point I would rather say these three women are some of the best voices I have ever heard. Each number was a joy. Of course one will appreciate some songs more than others due to personal musical preferences but I am sure everyone will find songs they love from the numbers chosen.
Songs from La Boheme and Faust, Sweet Charity and Little Shop of Horrors, songs like Miss Cele’s Blues and Solitude. The best of R&B and Gospel, Broadway and Jazz, Blues and Classical. A very hot band backs up the Divas with some really superior piano work and a tight rhythm section. Two time Grammy nominee Joseph Joubert’s arrangements and musical direction are top notch, this show does not miss a beat.
So if you have never had the opportunity to hear one diva, much less three divas, now is the time to seize the moment. Three Mo’ Divas deserves a call to the Arena boxoffice.

Amnesty International is calling for urgent action after an Israeli military commander renewed the administrative detention order against Ahmad Qatamesh by another six months last week.
Rights and Accountability
Attorneys for the Irvine 11 attempt to bring evidence of an Israeli official’s plans to attend an LA Lakers game into the courtroom — blowing a hole in the prosecution’s claims that he had to cut short his speech due to protests — but the judge has refused to let the jury see the photograph.
While world attention remains focused on whether or not the UN will admit as a full member a nonexistent Palestinian state, Israeli occupation forces are escalating their very real demolitions of Palestinian homes and infrastructure in the occupied West Bank. On 8 September, Chris Gunness, spokesman for UNRWA, the UN agency for Palestine Refugees, stated:
Opening arguments in the Irvine 11 free speech trial include the defense attorney’s statements that no unlawful act was committed, and therefore the misdemeanor charges of conspiracy to commit an unlawful act are baseless.
The new book Threat, Palestinian Political Prisoners in Israel is an excellent resource for activists who want to shed light on the situation of Palestinian political prisoners.
Opening arguments in the “Irvine 11” free speech trial formally begin Wednesday in California. The Muslim students who protested an Israeli official’s visit continue to fight criminal charges that could lead to two-year jail sentences.
Lawyers representing the victims of the Israeli military attack on the Mavi Marmara have affirmed that they are pursuing legal action against the perpetrators, including individuals Israeli soldiers.
Major rights organizations say that recommendations made by a UN panel inquiry into Israel’s deadly use of force on the Mavi Marmara aid ship last year do not provide effective remedy for the victims and their families.
The Fifth Circuit Court will hear the oral arguments for an appeal in the case of the Holy Land Five, the founders of the largest Muslim charity in the US who have been imprisoned under Patriot Act laws.
Palestinian Americans have called on Arabs, Palestinians and their allies everywhere to reject a bid by the Palestinian Authority (PA) to ask the United Nations next month to admit the “State of Palestine” as a full member. In a 27 August statement from its coordinating committee, the US Palestinian Communities Network (USPCN) wrote:

The kindness of strangers is something that many people rely upon to get by, but trusting unknown individuals can be a real risk. Every so often, if they’re not careful, things can really fly off the rails!
When one elderly woman recently became stranded on the side of a rural road after her car got a flat tire, she had no idea how she would return back home. Thankfully, a stranger arrived shortly after, ready to lend a helping hand.
When she realized what was happening, however, she quickly saw that there was definitely more going on than met the eye…

I interviewed: Brian T., Boylan Hall, Monday morning in class. He identifies himself as American and says that he was born in the USA and learned about its history and importance through schooling. He pointed out an important historical legend, Martin Luther King Jr,who stood up against racism. He explained that even if your’e able to make the slightest change in this world you should. Although racism still exists in this world Martin Luther’s legendary speech of i have a dream seems to have come somewhat true. Stores, restrooms are no longer divided by color. Because of him, things have changed which has altered history.
I interviewed: Gwen P., library, Monday morning in the bathroom. She identifies herself as Colombian, was born in the USA and learned about the history and importance of Colombia through her parents. She pointed out the first president of Colombia, Simon Bolivar who was instrumental in South America’s revolutions against the Spanish empire. She said that the “Republic of Bolivia” was created in honor of this leader. She said that because of Simon Bolivar, South America was united, free from Spanish control and this comes to show that because of important leaders like Simon Bolivar, many nations are united and freed from control of other nations.
I interviewed Steven W., cafeteria, Monday afternoon. He identifies himself as Chinese and was born in the USA. He learned about China through his parents and he said that someone who he learned about who is important to his “people” is Mao Zedong, a founder of the Chinese communist party. He was part of the Cultural Revolution and designed the Great Leap Forward which dramatically improved state production of agriculture and industry. Although his Cultural Revolution caused many deaths, it cleansed China from superstitions, religious dogma, and traditions that were outdated in a ‘modernist transformation’ that made his economic reforms possible.
What’s similar about these stories is that they all acknowledge one important leader in a country’s history. Aenas, like these leaders, is a warrior who will lead his people to safety. In Virgil’s Aenid, it says, “Aenas, however, trusting to the loyalty of the two nations who were day by day growing into one, led his forces into the field, instead of awaiting the enemy behind his walls”. Aenas is a Trojan leader who was loyal to his people, just like Martin Luther King, Simon Bolivar, and Mao Zedong.

Last Sunday I had a few hours of free time so I opened pandora’s box 😉 in an attempt to organize Barbie’s clothes that have accumulated over the years. I couldn’t remember the last time I tried sorting, I want to continue where I left off. I found out I haven’t really done much and seeing my bin with the contents in shambles, I felt like having a headache!
I changed my mind 🙂 and decided to do it next week instead. I just picked 5 outfit and 5 dolls to try them on. All of these are thrift store finds in mint condition.
JAPANESE YUKATA, the sleeves are not longer than the thigh, it does not have any label so I think this is one of those made to order, got lost in the mail, and landed in my bin 😉
This one has no label also, so I do not know to which doll this was made for. Neatly sewn! With Nagajuban undergarment.
Traditional Korean wedding dress, no label.
Ascot Dress from My Fair Lady, handmade replica for Barbie, no label.
I was really amazed, I thought it was original Mattel, but nope, this is handmade. Judging from the snap button, this was probably made during the 70’s?
Barbie Benefit Ball Gown 1992 from the Classique Collection Limited Edition created by Designer Carol Spencer!
I found this along with another creation of Carol Spencer sometime in Year 2012! I have forgotten about it coz I had it hung inside my wardrobe cabinet. I really liked that they used plastic mini zipper than the velcro that often damage the fabric.

Murdock is probably best known for being drummer and leader in progressive rock band Cymballic Encounters, and here he has used some of the musicians involved in that plus other guests in what is presumably a concept album of some type. Singer Tim Pepper is one of these, but while he can hit the notes, his delivery rarely has any real presence, and when that is combined with music which is rarely inspiring it results in a somewhat flat album where everything just washes over the listener who is soon looking to see how much longer there is to go (74 minutes in total). This is a real pity as there are bits and pieces which are real sparks of delight. For example, at the beginning of second track “Time Travelers from the Future” there is an instrumental passage which reminded me immediately of Colosseum II and I was looking forward to something of great speed and intricacy, but although that passage was repeated a few times, the rest of the song was somewhat lethargic.
I have not heard any of Cymballic Encounters’ four albums, but if they are in a similar vein to this then that will not be something I will be looking to address. Played multiple times, and I know that will never happen again.

Courteney Fisher, a digital content creator and strength and fat-loss coach, regularly posts her workouts and fitness challenges to social media. She recently posted a tongue-in-cheek video on the feedback she hears all too often.
Fisher, who posts on TikTok under the handle @justtcocoo, shared the clip on Sunday, and it’s since been viewed over 45,000 times. “Stop lifting,” the text over the screen reads as Fisher flaunts her toned body in an orange ʙικιɴι. “You’re looking too manly.”
“Me,” the blonde bombshell wrote, responding to the trolls as she smiled at the camera. In addition to modeling her figure, the lifter responded to her critics in the caption of her video.
“Good. Cause I’m about to kick your a$$!” the caption reads. Commenters were quick to ᴀssure the fitness guru she looked great.
“So beautiful,” one follower wrote. “How to be you, I want my body like that,” said another.
“So amazing,” another gushed. Fisher often posts about weightlifting, encouraging other women to try it and talking about the benefits of pilates.
Fisher isn’t the only weightlifter taking social media by storm. Last year, a New Jersey gym junkie went viral on TikTok after she shared a video of herself ᴅᴇᴀᴅlifting 425 pounds in front of a group of stunned men.
The clip shows the 25-year-old brunette lifting the weights to a huge round of applause from men looking nearby. Sherein Abdelhady told Jam Press that she believes the video went viral because “it’s just not as common to see a female lifting that much weight every day at a commercial gym.”

Pro-Palestinian protesters clash with police in Paris
A Reuters photographer said demonstrators in northern Paris launched projectiles at riot police, who responded by firing teargas canisters and stun grenades.
Demonstrators also climbed on top of a building and burned an Israeli flag. At least one car was set on fire.
A police spokesman said that 38 demonstrators had been arrested by early evening and that the clashes were dying down.
However, dozens of police trucks were seen rolling into the narrow streets of the historically Jewish Marais neighborhood where French media said groups of protesters had assembled.
President Francois Hollande earlier said he had asked his interior minister to ban protests that could turn violent after demonstrators marched on two synagogues in Paris last weekend and clashed with riot police.
"That's why I asked the interior minister, after an investigation, to ensure that such protests would not take place," he told journalists during a visit to Chad.
Foreign Minister Laurent Fabius responded to criticism France was biased in favor of Israel, which sent ground forces in on Thursday after 10 days of air and naval barrages failed to stop rocket fire from Gaza.
In London, thousands of pro-Palestinian demonstrators marched peacefully clutching Palestinian flags and banners reading "Stop the bombing" and "Free Palestine" before congregating outside of the Israeli embassy.

Barbecue Sauce Recipe from Neuman’s Kitchen
Sometimes there are things in life that are just too good not to share.
Here at Neuman’s Kitchen that thing just happens to be our housemade barbecue sauce and dry rub recipe!
Housemade BBQ sauce from Neuman’s Kitchen
Protip: Timing is very important when it comes to adding flavor. A marinade, rub, or injection should be used before you start grilling, while barbecue sauce needs to be added later. Do not sauce too early! Barbecue sauce is sweet, so it will burn on the fire before it can flavor your food. The better alternative, brush barbecue sauce on during the last few minutes of cooking and serve additional sauce alongside your meat.
BBQ Sauce Recipe
Yield: 16 Ounces
- 1 1/3 Cup Ketchup
- 1 1/3 Ounce Sherry Vinegar
- 1 1/3 Ounce Worcestershire Sauce
- 1 1/3 Tablespoon Molasses

- 1 Teaspoon BBQ Dry Rub (Recipe Below)
- 1 Ounce Brown Sugar

- ½ Teaspoons Black Pepper, Ground
- ½ Teaspoons Cumin, Ground
- ½ Teaspoon Coriander, Ground
- Combine the ketchup, sherry vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, brown sugar, molasses, dijon mustard, sambal sauce, bbq rub, black pepper, toasted cumin and toasted coriander.
- Cook over medium heat for approx. 20 minutes in a non-reactive pot.

Was Christ born of a virgin and did he die on the cross? Are sins forgiven? What are his views on Christianity and the Bible? What is the truth about the Turin Shroud and his resurrection? Will all survive death or is it dependent on belief? How do we reach the highest planes in heaven? These are just a few of the questions answered by Jesus Christ in this controversial but captivating book...
For two thousand years a great aura of mystery has surrounded the life, death and purpose of Jesus Christ. Numerous cults and religions have grown out of the sparse information contained in the four gospels in the bible. Each has a different creed or dogma. Some believe one thing, others another. They all have their beliefs, but none of them really know! The author has been communicated with by Jesus Christ every day on a two-way basis since 1976. Significantly, when the religious view of Jesus Christ is set aside, a purely practical human being, albeit of extraordinary capabilities, emerges.
The author had puzzled over the mystical aspects of Christ's existence for most of his life and, after he discovered the principles behind communication with the spiritual world, he was spoken to by Jesus Christ himself, who intimated his wish that the world be appraised of the truth about him. Alan Valiant was asked if he would help and this book is the result.
Fifty questions are posed by Alan Valiant and the answers are written by Jesus Christ through the author's hand. The facts concerning Christ's last incarnation are now known. Knowledge of the truth is infinitely better than blind belief and all people who earnestly seek the facts of their existence will be greatly enlightened when they learn of the amazing replies to the author's questions.

By the year 2050, the world population will be 9 billion if the current trend follows. About 70 % of this population will be living in urban regions. Researchers are developing new methods of farming to increase the productivity of the land. Vertical farming in India can be a solution to future food security problems.
Vertical farming is a type of agriculture method in which the crops are grown on vertical levels, stacked upon each other to reduce the space usage for food production. We will look deep into the vertical farming method and things that make it different and more sustainable from conventional farming methods.
How is vertical farming different from traditional farming methods?
Vertical farms are also known as High Rise Farms, as the plants are raised higher above the ground. The thing which makes vertical farming different from other methods is its objective, to provide the optimum environment to the plants for their better growth and development.
The plants are usually grown in a controlled environmental condition, where the parameters such as humidity, temperature, the quantity of macro and micronutrients, all are controlled continuously in a closed space. Farmers always want that their crops will not get damaged due to the external weather conditions. In India, vertical farming can surely fulfil this desire of the farmers.
Why vertical farming is a better choice for growers?
Vertical farming is the modern method of growing crops, having many reasons which make it a better choice for those who believe in the power of innovation and desires to make more profit in the food production sector.
1. All-year-round crop production: A vertical farm has a controlled growing condition by which grower can raise crop even in the off-season. Off-season crop production results in more profit and more availability of food in the market.
Higher Yield: Higher yield is achievable through two ways: By increasing productivity and by increasing the cultivation area. Vertical farming does it both, the plant grows better in a controlled condition, and vertical production extends the crop cultivation area.
Avoidance of droughts and pests: Many regions in our country are prone to drought, and farmers face extensive loss every year. Using the hydroponics or aeroponics crop production technology can save the crop from dying. Vertical farming also reduces water consumption in the food production process, as the plants get irrigated through micro-irrigation technologies such as drip irrigation.
Pests are not a problem in vertical farming because the crops are grown in an enclosed protected area where the probability of pest entry is extremely low.
No need for long-distance transportation: Most of the vegetables and fruits are highly perishable, and long-distance shipping can cause considerable damage to their quality. Vertical farming gives us the freedom to set up the farm near to the market, as the external climate does not influence the crop growth and development in a vertical farm.
What are the challenges in vertical farming?
One of the few challenges of vertical farming in India includes a limited range of crops suitable for this type of agriculture practice, most of them are vegetable and fruit crops. Despite this limitation, growers can grow a variety of crops on their farm to earn high profits. The skilled and experienced workforce is also lacking in this sector.
Another challenge is the high energy consumption, equipment like climate control system, irrigation system, water filtration system and lights consume a large part of the energy. Installing LED grow lights can reduce energy consumption significantly. Technical support at each stage of crop production from government institution is also a challenge for vertical farming in India.
Arable land is decreasing rapidly due to the urbanization process, increasing population, and climate change. Vertical farming seen as the future of food production and rural regions benefited through this type of food production method. Advantages such as all-year-round crop production, better yield and quality are encouraging farming community towards vertical farming.
Fresher and more nutritious food is available the population through vertical farming, this can help them in living a healthier life, especially for those living in urban areas. The central and state government are making farmers aware of the benefits of vertical farming and helping them through different policies and subsidiary schemes.

Firefighter Tracy Champion
Photo credit: Philadelphia Fire Department
Funeral arrangements have been set for Saturday for a Philiadelphia firefighter who collapsed at a fire scene last week.
Firefighter Tracy Champion, 49, was treated at the scene by medics, and rushed to Lankenau Hospital where he was pronounced dead.
"Champ," as he was known to his friends, spent the majority of his 20-year career at Engine 54, and was named Firefighter of the Year in 2004. "He was very helpful to everyone, especially the younger guys," said Jamilah Jones, who's worked with Champion for the past three years.
"He was always so active. He liked to ride his motorcycle, shoot pool and bowl. He really liked sports. That's why we can't believe it. He was always doing something."
When he wasn't on duty at Engine 54, Champion also worked with two different ambulance companies, Physician's Choice and Jeff STAT. "He also loved spending time with his family," Jones said, adding that his friend leaves behind a wife and two sons.
Champion is the 279th firefighter to die in the line of duty since the Philadelphia Fire Department was founded in 1871.
Visitation will be held from9-11 a.m. Saturday, Feb. 4 at Sharon Baptist Church, 3955 Conshohocken Ave., where funeral services will begin at 11 a.m. Companies planning to bring apparatus, honor guards or personnel should contact the Philadelphia Fire Academy at 215-686-8062.
