text:
I’ll be the first one to admit that my perspective on all things Kemetic is fairly insular. I don’t look too far beyond the Kemetic Orthodox community. I browse Tumblr but don’t really engage much. So anything I speak about is going to come either from what I’ve learned in the House of Netjer, or what I’ve learned through my own interaction with the gods. All this is to say: I’m not the most informed on what other people believe, so I’m speaking purely from ignorance here and nothing more. (It’s possible that, given my ignorance, I should just keep my mouth shut — but where’s the fun in that?)
I’ve noticed huge diversity in how people describe their divine relationships. There’s some who almost give off a sense of distrust for the gods, as though They were so capricious that they might turn and bite their devotees on a whim. There’s some who seem to have a very casual relationship, coining cheeky nicknames and describing drinking matches. There’s god-spousery, which I have such trouble grasping for myself that I can only say “you do you” (and I mean that earnestly, not dismissively). There’s the business relationships, where devotees give offerings and are given heka in return. What I don’t see much is sacred love.
My love for my gods is massive. It swells up inside me so vast that my breath catches, and I want to lay at Their feet and sing Their praises every day. I believe in Their fallibility, and that sometimes They’re going to try to protect me and fail. I believe in Their beneficence, Their positive intent and good will. When They challenge me, I thrill inwardly that I am strong enough to be challenged. When I kneel in Their presence I feel Their brilliance renewing me, and I am overwhelmed with happiness to know Their grace.
I know there’s not a lot of emphasis on this kind of ecstatic love in antiquity. There’s enough, to be sure, in the stelae and inscriptions that carry messages from ancient devotees. It’s not the first thing that comes to mind when discussing the distinguishing qualities of ancient Egyptian religious practices, however. The precision, the purity, the constancy with which the priests attended to their gods all get much more attention, and rightfully so. The ancient priests had honoring the gods down to a science.
Maybe it’s just my quirk. Maybe it’s a holdover from my Catholic days (which are soon to be less than half my life, somehow). Or maybe it’s just not a topic of interest to other writers right now. I’d love to see more of it though. I have my casual days too. I sing along to “Back in Black” for the Jackal and offer my Mother the first sips of beer when I’m relaxing. But it’s that love that moves me to Their shrine again and again; it’s the warmth and light They radiate, and the way my heart swells when I am in Their presence.
All this is meant not as criticism, but as a call to share. If you feel the same ecstatic love I feel, wax poetic. If you don’t… well, what do you feel? What keeps you coming back to the gods?

7 thoughts on “Love of the gods.”
I definitely feel that way for Bast. I only really openly show it in my writing, but I’ve been moved to tears during my devotions just thanking Her for being in my life. I don’t dip much into the casual nature you mention, like nicknames and the whole “Kemetic fandom” thing, because for me it feels too disrespectful. That being said, I think it depends on your relationship with the god. Bast seems to desire something very traditional and respectful with me. On the other hand, Inanna has just recently appeared in my life and She seems to be more drawn to the modern, almost pop culture kind of thing. If that makes sense.
Reblogged this on Syncretic Mystic and commented:
My sister in Jackal Sobeq speaks volumes on having real love for the Gods. Plus, I miss writing.
Beloved Jackal Dad, please obliterate the obstacles in the way of my moving forward, and in the way of my Doing and Creating. Kheperu.
❤ this is great :3 shared and added onto: https://irytra.wordpress.com/2016/01/26/love-of-the-gods/
I often waffle between seeing the gods as sentient collections of natural forces and energies(i.e. their own conscious entities) and seeing them as personifications of the natural forces (not conscious but still collections of energy), depending on my mood and what I’m doing. But either way, I do think I feel something related to what you describe…that sort of overwhelming joy to just be alive and be in the presence of something, and wanting to meld into it. Whether its Wesir, who I feel at a local lake lined with cypress and dotted with lotus blossoms, at work, where I feel Aset calling me to advance and thrive, or at dawn, where I sense Kheperu and all the “becoming” that awaits us. There something so intrinsically enchanting and joyous about the world we live in, the people we come to love, the experiences of life, and learning to see the Netjeru therein. They are all the experiences of life, and more. To love life is to love them, and for me, that can be enhanced when I take the time to stop and see the wondrous in the mundane…to see that we are all but “tears of Ra”. You might feel that this is more akin to awe than love. You might be right, haha.
I just wanted to say how beautiful this is, to thank you for sharing it and for inspiring me to really take some time today to think more about how this love manifests in my own relationship with Netjer. ❤ Much love to *you* as well.
I just assume the love/awe is an unspoken part of most people’s experiences even if I personally don’t understand them; the people who are afraid of their capriciousness probably wouldn’t be drawn to dealing with them without it (and if they don’t and are working with them, maybe they deserve the flack they get?); neither would the people who focus on heka or magic have faith in what they’re doing without it. And godspousery, I’m not big on the complication of romantic relationships for myself, but the adoration of a lover is a preexisting schematic for expression of love, why not gods and men utilize it. Bromance for the casual folks, too. xD I don’t know if it’s that people don’t feel the sacred love, so much as only the expressions/reactions to it, put through a social filter, are what gets recorded. At least that’s what I tell myself when I see an attitude and way of relating online that I find challenging.
Plus, sacred love is a peak experience. That kind of overarching awe, well, stars don’t always align to let it happen. If you hit up shrine several days in a row, you will be going through the motions on some of them. You can walk in the sun, but if your dog pulling your arm out of the socket chasing seagulls, you won’t be thinking of Ra much.
For me though, it is what keeps me going but more diffused because I don’t have super long-term settled deities–there’s no default for rapture, and that makes it harder to hit a moving target, many times I don’t try to foster it due to focus/investment issues, but I wouldn’t have it any other way.
I’ll never forget that first midwinter night that I sat outside for nearly an hour at 3:30 AM in freezing temperatures and felt the void of space and vault of stars take on a towering peering sentience when I laid my heart out to Nebthet, though. And that, when I interact with the netjeru, is what I try to bear in mind that they all potentially are.

According to the DVD and online video rental king Netflix’s last quarterly report, Netflix now has more subscribers than Comcast, the largest cable U.S. TV operator. 7% of all U.S. citizens now subscribe to Netflix. That’s great for Netflix but what about the Internet, on which it increasingly relies for its video transport?
Back in October, Netflix, and other video content were already taking up more bandwidth than any other single Internet service Gaming, Peer-to-Peer (P2P) file sharing, and Web surfing were all falling behind. It’s only gotten worse since then. When I recently looked at how much traffic IPv6 was transporting on the Internet, I found that Netflix, all by itself, was taking up 20%–the largest single share-of all Internet traffic.
There’s nothing wrong with that, but is there enough bandwidth on the Internet to support this if this video trend continues? I doubt it.

Leica Camera Wetzlar Germany – Official | International
Global manufacturer of high-end cameras and lenses, observation, and fine mechanical instruments and high-tech devices of the best standards in imaging quality.
Leica brings out the fourth-generation Leica M monochrome camera.
Makes me happy- lots of debate over the benefits of a digital monochrome camera. Kodak had wanted to do a monochrome version of the M8. The engineer at Kodak told me so when I called in 2010 asking for a monochrome M9.
I'm also thrilled to see the monochrome Pentax SLR. I would like to see a monochrome Mirrorless camera- as that would be the ultimate "see what you get" when selecting filters.

Family of inmate who died after struggle with Sangamon Co. guards contends records destroyed
The family of an accused pedophile who died after struggling with guards at the Sangamon County contends the sheriff's office has destroyed or failed to disclose records in the death.

SHERIFF WILLIAMSON'S IGNORANCE IS NO EXCUSE.
Neil Williamson knows that, "when it comes to the law, ignorance is no excuse." But when it comes to enforcing the law, Sheriff Williamson seems to think that ignorance is excusable. He used to stand by his Coroner Susan Boone, until she was investigated for, "changing official records", "filing incomplete death certificates", and "reporting false causes of death". Now she is not speaking and he doesn't stand by her anymore.
Over his last term, three citizens have died in the custody of Sangamon County law officers. When a citizen dies in the hands of officers, that is a failure of law enforcement and management. Neil Williamson says that, "he stands by his men". But he won't release official videos or records. Sheriff Williamson has failed to provide adequate oversight and effective management. Now, he doesn't stand by his records anymore.
In regard to the cases of Patrick Burns and Anakin Credit, Neil Williamson has said things like, "I need more facts", "I don't know exactly what happened", "We did everything that we could", and "We didn't know what to do". Knowing what to do and how to do it, is Sheriff Williamson's job and responsibility! Too many times, he has failed to do his job responsibly! Now, he doesn't stand up and acknowledge that he is ultimately responsible.
How many of us can excuse ourselves by saying the kinds of things that Sheriff Williamson says? When it comes to law enforcement, ignorance should not be an excuse. That is why we should fire Neil Williamson. As a 9/11 survivor with PTSD, I have been victim to Sheriff Williamson's failure to manage his office intelligently and competently. Unfortunately, many more, survivors, and veterans, could become victims too.
Vote for Regan for County Sheriff.
Sincerely, William Wilkins

YouTube king Felix ‘PewDiePie’ Kjellberg is one of the site’s most successful entertainers, becoming its most-subscribed independent creator with a projected net worth in the millions — a fact he claims he’s widely judged for.
Kjellberg opened up on the topic during a video on April 21, where he reacted to Jubilee’s “Do All Millionaires Think the Same?” social experiment, which presented a small group of millionaires with a series of hard-hitting questions about their wealth.
One of the questions given to the millionaires asked them if they’d ever been judged for their money — something PewDiePie could sympathize with.
According to the YouTube star, he feels “sad” for people who judge others for their wealth, and believes that cash isn’t the key to true happiness, in the slightest.
“It just makes me sad for other people… people look at me and they’re like, ‘Oh, he doesn’t have any problems because he has money,’” he began. “So many people share the idea that money solves all your problems. …I just feel bad for people who have that mindset, because I know for a fact it isn’t true.”
Kjellberg went on to explain that, while money has significantly improved his life, he was just as happy before his rise to YouTube fame, citing his struggle starting out with now-wife Marzia.
“Sometimes, I look back on the times when I was just starting out with YouTube, and I was just making enough to pay my rent each month,” he continued. “That’s the kind of time I look back as the most happiest, when me and Marzia were in Sweden. We didn’t have a lot of money. It wasn’t easy, but we were equally happy then.”
(Topic begins at 13:33 for mobile readers)
While PewDiePie has addressed confusing reports regarding his supposed net worth in the past, the Swede has gone on record stating that it “doesn’t matter” to him in spite of rampant speculation.
Even after being robbed late last year, to PewDiePie, material wealth isn’t all that important — claiming that it’s real happiness that counts.

I have been with my girlfriend for >2 years now. Altho it all started very positively, it has not being going very well. We started living together right before the pandemic started, so immediately being "lockdowned" together, mostly working from home, gave a lot of stress. But more importantly (to me): there is no intimacy between us.
My GF has always had trouble with intimacy, in her past relationships, and also in this relationship. She feels like she has a wall around that, and anything that could lead to intimacy, is scary to her (kissing, touching especially in bed, hugging in bed, etc). This is most likely caused by sexual trauma in her teen years.
This lack of intimacy, together with lockdown stress, makes that we currently do not feel (romantically) connected to each other; it feels like we're more roommates than romantic partners. We have been trying to work on this: do fun things together, hugging each day before we go to sleep, etc. But this has not had much effect, and I feel the energy is running out.
A couple of months ago, she told me she is interested in a more open relationship. I am not, and therefore have so far said "no" to being open. She is not happy about that, but has accepted it so far.
Recently, however, she admitted that she has been active in online BDSM-communities, and that she (now) believes that being a sub in dom/sub (BDSM) relationship can help her overcome her trauma's, which in turn might help with our intemacy issues and help us reconnect to each other. She wants her partner in this to be someone else (not me), as she feels it might hurt the dynamics of our relationship. Beside that, I'm not interested in BDSM, and we both don't believe that I would be a good dom.
Altho the final outcome (her making steps in overcoming trauma's) is great, I am quite uncomfortable with the idea of her being intimate (especially in such an extreme way) with other partners. I feel like I would be very jealous. This jealousy is amplified by the fact that there is no intimacy between me and her. Additionally, I am scared that I will completely lose my attraction to her: to me, it feels dirty, but not in a good way.
Since our relationship started so well, we have a nice place together, and the "teamwork" is going okay, I have a hard time giving up the relationship. The facts that I don't easily find girls interested in me(I have had only had one serious relationship before this one) and I don't want to hurt her, also make the decision harder.
My question is therefore: is it worth going through this period of pain for me to have the possibility to repair this relationship? Or is it better at this point to give up on this relationship, and save myself some pain? What should I consider to make this decision? Has anybody gone through a simular situation?
TL;DR: My girlfriend believes submissive/BDSM interactions can help her cope with personality issues and trauma in her past. I'm not sure the hardship of having to cope with her doing that is worth it. Hoping for pointers on how to make the "stay or leave" decision.

Chambersburg council president, mayor say borough is observing red status
CHAMBERSBURG, Pa. — Borough Council President Alice Elia and Mayor Walt Bietsch said Tuesday that Franklin County will remain in the red stay-at-home phase until June 4, according to a news release.
"We have yet to meet key public health metrics for reopening, which include numbers of COVID-19 cases in the last two weeks as well as testing and contact-tracing capacities," Elia said in the release.
State health data show that zip code 17201, largely occupied by the borough of Chambersburg, accounts for nearly half of the COVID-19 cases in Franklin County, according to the Pennsylvania Department of Health.
"While the appropriateness of the 'red' phase designation is subject to debate, local elected officials do not have the authority to independently permit non-waivered businesses to open during this 'red' phase," Bietsch said. "Non-waivered business owners/operators, who choose to open, do so at their own peril, considering the possible negative impacts that they may experience from the Wolf Administration, for violating the business closure order."
Pennsylvania Gov. Tom Wolf recently clarified consequences for violating red phase stay-at-home orders, including loss of insurance coverage as well as state licenses for small businesses.
"The county itself, and possibly the municipalities and organizations within it, may lose discretionary funds from the CARES Act that would directly benefit our citizens and our economic recovery," said Elia, who represents the borough's 1st Ward and was selected this year by the other members of the council to serve as council president.
"I hope that you will join me in supporting this approach and continuing to believe in the goodwill of our neighbors and our Borough business owners," she said.
Elia and Bietsch both said they recognized the economic toll of the pandemic and thanked borough residents for their collective sacrifice.
Elia noted the risks associated with reopening too early, including jeopardizing the health of the community.
"We risk compromising our economic recovery if non-eligible businesses reopen in violation of state orders," she said in the release. "Moreover, the health of our families and friends, our neighbors, our coworkers, our Borough staff, our emergency services personnel and police officers, our health aides and caregivers, our nurses and doctors, continue to depend on our willingness to abide by Red Phase Stay At Home orders."
Although the Chambersburg Borough Police Department does not have the authority to revoke state-issued licenses, Bietsch said business owners will be informed of the possible revocation by the state of any license under which they operate.
The council's approach will be that of educating and advising, Bietsch added.
"We request that non-waivered businesses who have contact with Chambersburg police officers maintain a level of civility, cooperation and respect for these officers who are tasked with a difficult mission in these difficult times," he said. "Our officers will treat all with civility, respect, and will conduct themselves professionally."
Adhering to CDC guidelines, regular hand-washing, wearing a mask and continuing social distancing remain important, Elia said.
"Together, we can continue our work as a community toward the recovery of our livelihoods, the protection of public health, and the dearly sought normalcy of our pre-pandemic lives," she said.

“On a white sandy beach of Hawai’i”
(Side note: this song is stuck on repeat in my head while I write this post)
Ah Hawai’i, *cue ukulele background music*
The land of rainbows, palm trees lightly swaying in the trade winds, beautiful beaches, breathtaking sunsets, and lush mountains that seem to touch heaven. Sounds too good to be true right? BUT IT IS ALL REAL (see photo proof below). It is easy to see why Hawai’i is one of the most popular tourist destinations in the world. If your family gets orders here then consider yourselves some of the lucky few that will get to call these islands home for a few years! This post will share a list of our absolute favorite beaches to go to on the island of Oahu.
#1 Bellows Beach (Waimanalo)
Located on (and off) of Bellows Air Force Base on the windward side of Oahu, this beauty of a beach offers a family friendly campsite with a nice canopy of trees for shade, clear blue water with boogie boarding sized waves, soft white sandy bottom, and terrific views of the surrounding mountains! Leave it to the Air Force to have such a beautiful piece of real estate! There is a portion of the Bellows beach that extends off base and is open to the public only on the weekends (due to military training conducted during the week.) You can bet too that the off base portion gets packed with locals and tourists on the weekends, so we always preferred to go onto the base for smaller crowds, PX/subway, and bathroom/shower facilities. There are also lifeguards that stand duty on the base portion of the beach for extra peace of mind with kiddos. If you’re visiting, there are some nice oceanfront cabins available for rent. This beach is perfect for relaxing, enjoying the views, and hanging with friends & family.

#2 Kailua Beach (Lanakai)
Kailua gives off all the Hawaii beach town vibes. The town of Kailua has cute beachy shops and restaurants less than a five minute drive from the beach access parking lot. AND located directly across the street from the main parking lot of this beach is Buzz’s Steakhouse; my favorite restaurant in Hawaii! Seriously if you go everything is delicious and the calamari appetizer is one of the bet things I have ever tasted. Ok sorry, back to beach talk! The water at this beach is calm, little to no waves, clear blue, and has soft white sand! It is perfect for little ones so they can float or play in the shallow water area without getting smacked by waves. Also perfect for kayaking and paddle boarding with a place nearby you can rent these items if needed. Dogs are allowed here, lifeguards stand duty, and there are bathroom/shower facilities available. This beach gets packed on the weekends, so I suggest getting there early because parking is limited! Lastly, this beach is about a ten minute drive from the Marine Corps Base in Kaneohe Bay.
#3 Officer’s & Secret Beach
These are two different beaches on the Marine Corps Base, so they can only be used by those with a military ID. I talked briefly about Officer’s beach in my last post on Hawai’i Base housing. We loved this beautiful beach and frequented it often because it was just a minute walk from our house! Officer’s Beach (despite the name) has no rank restrictions and is enjoyed by everyone! This beach is within walking distance from most of the neighborhoods on base, and has the beautiful Clipper Golf Course backing up onto one side of it. This beach is especially great for families in the summertime, but starting in the fall and into the winter months it becomes a surfer’s beach with really large waves and currents from the stronger than average trade winds at that time in the year. When there isn’t a high tide in, there is a small portion of a cove area with literally no waves and this is where the little ones and parents would like to gather. Only try surfing here if you know what you’re doing, there are lots of rocks & coral in the water, so be sure to do a survey of the shoreline before picking your spot to surf. This beach offers a beautiful view of the mountains!
Secret Beach is exactly it’s name, secret! I only found out about this little beach from friends that lived there before me and knew where it was. There is no set address for it to put into your GPS, but I can tell you it’s across the flight line near the Force Recon Company Headquarters. If you decide you want to go here ask around on base and someone should be able to give you directions! This beach has rougher sand and a coral reef to snorkle, BUT the water is so calm making it easy to float, snorkel, and paddle board. This beach also has a front row view to coconut island (island of Gilligan’s famous marooned crew) and on a clear day you can see China Man’s hat!
#4 Waikiki Beach
Located in the city of Honolulu, this is the Hawaii postcard beach that offers the best tourist experience along with some pretty awesome views of the iconic diamond head. A day on this beach will feel like a scene out of Elvis’s “Blue Hawaii.” There is a large sandbar off of Waikiki beach that breaks the waves and provides calm water for beach goers to take a dip and relax without being pummeled by waves. The sand under water is coral based, so it is unpleasant to walk on and can be rocky & rough. All along the beach are hotels and restaurants, so if you get hungry or thirsty while on the beach then you can just walk up a few feet from your chair and grab whatever you need! The Hale Koa is a military resort located at Fort Derussy in Waikiki & has a priceless portion of beach front. Even if you aren’t staying the night in Waikiki, you can still park in the Hale Koa hotel garage across the street at a discounted price and have access to the PX, restaurants, pools, and the beach side barefoot bar and grill! All with just showing your Military ID!
#5 North Shore Beach
Located at the top of the island is the iconic North Shore. This is the beach to go to if you want to see the big waves and world class surfers! This beach is very pretty and depending which area you go to it may not be too crowded either. However, if you go in the winter time the waves can be so massive that the beach can be closed to the public. There is a cute town called Haleiwa on the North Shore that has lots of beachy shops & restaurants. After a long, hot day at the beach be sure to grab a shave ice at the world famous Matsumotos!
This list concludes our top favorite beaches in Hawaii! However there are sooo many beaches on the island, all of which are beautiful cause I mean come on it’s Hawaii. If you are getting stationed out here, just going for vacation, or even just day dreaming about visiting then I hope you found this post helpful 🙂

Study Links Maternal Self Perception to Child's Brain Development and Stress Level
Developments in early childhood have a long-term impact on the quality of life. Earlier studies have revealed an association between socioeconomic factors such as education and parental income and the child's overall health and brain function.
A recent study says that a child's brain development depends on maternal self perception. This research states that a mother's perceived social status predicts the child's brain development as well as stress indicator.
"We know that there are big disparities among people in income and education," said Margaret Sheridan, PhD, of the Labs of Cognitive Neuroscience at Boston Children's Hospital, the study's first author. "Our results indicate that a mother's perception of her social status 'lives' biologically in her children.
To prove the hypothesis, Sheridan and the senior investigator Charles Nelson, PhD, Boston Children's Hospital, examined 38 children of ages 8.3-11.8 years. The children were asked to provide their saliva samples that were used to measure the levels of cortisol- an indicator of stress. Apart from this, 19 children underwent functional MRI of brain, focusing on hippocampus- a region in the brain that is responsible for the formation of long term memory and lowering stress responses.
The study also included the mothers who were asked to rate their social standing on a scale of 1-10 comparing themselves with others.
The researchers noticed that children whose mothers claimed to have a low social status were more likely to suffer from increased cortisol levels and less activation in the hippocampus region.
The researchers took into consideration factors like age and gender. They saw that a mother's self-perceived social status was a significant predictor of cortisol levels in the child. During a learning task, the maternal self-perception predicted the degree of hippocampal activation.
In contrast to this, the maternal education or income relative to size of the family did not predict the cortisol level or activation of the hippocampus region.
"This needs further exploration," says Sheridan. "There may be more than one pathway leading to differences in long-term memory, or there may be an effect of stress on the hippocampus that comes out only in adulthood."
This study was published in the journal Developmental Science.

5015 Connecticut Ave, NW
From a press release:
“The popular neighborhood coffeehouse at Politics and Prose will re-open officially on April 14, following a ten-week closure for renovations. Renamed The Den, the coffeehouse will be operated by Matt Carr, who founded the excellent nearby market and eatery Little Red Fox with his wife Jena. The Den will feature expanded seating, improved furnishings and lighting, and a new menu created by Carr that includes dinner items as well as wine and craft beer.
5035 Connecticut Ave, NW
The changes mark the first major renovation of the coffeehouse since its start in 1993. P&P’s owners—Bradley Graham and Lissa Muscatine—worked with local architect Mark McInturff to ensure that the renovated space would retain the casual atmosphere and cozy feel that many in the neighborhood have enjoyed over the years. Visitors to The Den also will find the same superb coffee they’ve come to expect from the coffeehouse, along with a new and varied selection of made-to-order menu items. Food choices will include daily fresh baked pastries, tartines, soups, and cheese and charcuterie boards, and a much-anticipated new dessert, Pie Fries. Locally sourced, farm-to-table produce will be featured whenever possible.
The Den will be open Monday through Saturday from 8 a.m. to 10 p.m. and Sunday from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. (more…)

Amy Winehouse's boyfriend Reg Traviss charged with two counts of rape
- The 35-year-old film director will appear before magistrates next month
Allegations: Amy Winehouse's former boyfriend Reg Traviss has been charged with two counts of rape
The former boyfriend of the late singer Amy Winehouse has been charged with rape.
Reg Traviss faces two counts of rape and will appear before magistrates next month.
The 35-year-old had been seeing the singer for more than a year when she died at her home in Camden, north London, last July.
The film director has been behind movies including Psychosis, which featured Charisma Carpenter and Darkness frontman Justin Hawkins.
Traviss, who was charged under his full name Reginald, was arrested on April 5 by the Metropolitan Police in relation to an allegation of rape reported on January 18.
Rebecca Mundy, a lawyer for the Crown Prosecution Service, said: 'I have authorised the Metropolitan Police to charge Reginald Traviss with two counts of rape.
'The alleged offences took place between 29 December 2011 and 1 January 2012.'
The lawyer from the CPS London Rape and Serious Sexual Offences Unit added: 'The decision was taken in accordance with the Code for Crown Prosecutors.'
He will appear at Westminster Magistrates’ Court on July 17.
Charged: Film director Traviss had dated Amy for a year. He has been behind movies including Psychosis, which featured Darkness frontman Justin Hawkins
Last year, Traviss revealed him and Amy, who died aged 27, had been planning to get married.
He admitted that he still hadn't come to terms with the fact she has gone.
Speaking to the Sunday Times he said: 'What felt surreal was not the cameras and the craziness but losing somebody, just like that. One minute I was speaking to her, the next she was gone
'You might say we were halfway through a conversation in our life together and then, suddenly, she disappeared.'

Day 24, May 9: The Tiferet in Netzach
Up to this point, we have understood Tiferet as having to do with “balance.”
But in her book on the counting of the Omer called Journey Through the Wilderness, Rabbi Yael Levy understands Tiferet as “beauty,” and frames the theme of the day as “Beauty That Endures.” And I love what she says about this day:
Beauty abounds. At times we can feel ourselves filled and surrounded by splendor. Other times all we can see is brokenness and pain. It is our responsibility to search out, notice and create beauty. It is our responsibility to allow the beauty to inspire our empathy and encourage our acts of connection and love.
How can you create beauty in the world? Do you have to be an artist? What does it mean to take on the creation and recognition of beauty as a responsibility?
Thanks for the wonderful posts, everyone!
Rabbi Steve Folberg

Shares of computing and IT service giant IBM fell by as much as 4 percent as the company lowered its expected earnings for the year as its sales continued to slow down amid increased competition.
IBM slashed the range of its expected earnings for the 2015 fiscal year to between $14.75 and $15.75. Its prior range was $15.75 to $16.50. Analysts polled by Thomson Reuters had forecast 2015 earnings of $15.68.
For the third quarter, Big Blue beat analysts’ estimates, posting adjusted profit of $3.34 versus a consensus view of $3.30. Total revenue fell 14 percent to $19.3 billion, representing the 14th straight quarter of revenue declines.
Sales in the Global Technology services segment fell 10 percent versus the year-ago quarter to $7.9 billion. Sales of its Global Business Services unit fell 13 percent to $4.2 billion.
The company saw growth in its new business lines such as cloud computing. Revenue in that business rose 45 percent to $9.4 billion from the year-ago period. That included $4.5 billion it said encompassed computing delivered on an “as a service” basis.
The problem is those business aren’t yet mature enough to make a dent in the overall results. CEO Ginni Rometty calls them “strategic imperatives” and they include cloud computing, mobile software, analytics and security.
The news comes as Re/code reported today that IBM is in talks to acquire some of the digital assets of The Weather Channel.

1, Article 4.

In a bold confession on X, a South African woman named @Khvnyi stirred up a storm of opinions with her statement about hating being a mother.
The woman expressed her deep regret over becoming a mother, saying she could never be convinced that it’s worthwhile.
“Being a mother. It’s one of my biggest regrets and nobody can convince me that it’s worth it. Ever.”
This confession drew mixed reactions online, touching on the different views on motherhood. The conversation took another turn when another X user asked her if she considered adoption. She wrote:
“Yho That time that kid is permanent. Have you thought of giving them up for adoption maybe?”
Khvnyi clarified that while she doesn’t hate her kids, she despises the role of being a mom, but wouldn’t think of giving her children up.
“Being a mother is very overwhelming. I hate it and if I could turn back the hands of time, I wouldn’t have been a mother. It doesn’t mean I hate my child.”

It was towards the end of the 3rd trimester when I realized that I just ruined my life. I wanted to give her away after birth and 8 months later, we are here.
I’m giving her the best life ever. Do I hate her? No. Will I do anything for her? Yes. Would I do this again? Absolutely Not.”

Two X users, Onyiaprudence and QueenJayhee expressed their dismay over her statement. She remarked on the choice of being a mother and worried about the impact on Khvnyi’s children when they grew up and saw what their mother tweeted.
Queenjayhee also, spoke on the joy in motherhood, as she couldn’t grasp Khvnyi’s feelings, which was hating motherhood.
In contrast, other users Nenyenwa and Icequeen showed understanding. They empathized with Khvnyi, confirming the tough nature of motherhood.
They urged people not to judge Khvnyi unless they’ve walked in her shoes, acknowledging the challenges, especially with active children.
Vinawills, another user, echoed her sentiment, stressing that it’s possible to love one’s kids but struggle with the role of a parent.

Scientists have hailed a "historic moment" in Alzheimer’s research after a trial identified the first ever drug to reduce memory decline and destroy key proteins associated with the disease.
The landmark study of 1,800 people showed that twice-weekly injections of lecanemab can reduce progress of the disease by 27 per cent, compared with a placebo.
The drug is the first ever disease-modifying treatment to both slow cognitive decline and reduce the plaques associated with the disease.
Changes were evident as early as six months after participants started taking the drug, lecanemab, researchers said. The drug was found to slow decline in participants’ memory and functional thinking.
Manufacturers Eisai, a Tokyo-based pharmaceutical company which has partnered with US biotech firm Biogen to develop the drug, is expected to file for approval in the US this year, before applying for a licence in Europe early next year.
Experts stressed that the drug has not been shown to cure Alzheimer’s disease. But researchers are now recruiting those at high risk of the condition to see if the drug could work even before any symptoms have developed.
Lecanemab is designed to target and clear amyloid, one of the proteins that builds up in the brains of people with Alzheimer’s at an early stage of the disease.
Eisai examined the drug – an “anti-amyloid beta protofibril antibody” – for the treatment of mild cognitive impairment for patients with amyloid in the brain.
The study, called CLARITY-AD, was the largest to date to test a long-debated theory that clearing toxic brain plaques, called amyloid, might slow the progress of Alzheimer’s disease.
The pharmaceutical company said the results were “highly statistically significant” results.
It compared results of people taking the drug and those taking a placebo – or dummy drug.
Scientists found that after 18 months the drug slowed the disease progression by 27 per cent compared with those taking the placebo.
At the same time, the trials showed differences in the build-up of amyloid in the brain in scans of participants, with those taking the drug having lower levels compared to those taking the placebo.
'Historic moment for dementia research'
Dr Susan Kohlhaas, director of research at Alzheimer’s Research UK, said: "This is a historic moment for dementia research, as this is the first phase three trial of an Alzheimer’s drug in a generation to successfully slow cognitive decline.
"This is the first drug that’s been shown to not only remove the build-up of a protein called amyloid in the brain, but to have a small but statistically significant impact on cognitive decline in people with early-stage disease."
Dr Kohlhaas said that "substantial side effects" will need to be considered, and that regulators across the world will need to assess the full data to determine whether the drug is safe and effective enough to be used in people with the disease.
She added that the drug "won't be a silver bullet for all causes of dementia", but said she hoped the results will "spark renewed investment in dementia research across the globe".
Of the people who experienced side effects, the most common were headaches and swelling in the brain, known as "amyloid-related imaging abnormalities".
'Time will tell if effect increases over time'
Dr Catherine Mummery, consultant neurologist at the National Hospital for Neurology and Neurosurgery, said the results are "exciting".
"If borne out by the full details of the study, as they are the clearest indicator so far that by lowering amyloid levels in the brain, cognitive decline can be slowed," she said.
"However, the size of the effect, while significant, is small – the disease is slowed by 27 per cent over 18 months. What we cannot know yet is whether that effect increases over time in an individual; that would be predicted but is untested – time will tell."
Rob Howard, professor of old age psychiatry, University College London, said: "This is an unambiguously statistically positive result and represents something of an historic moment when we see the first convincing modification of Alzheimer’s disease... God knows, we’ve waited long enough for this."
'Very likely more people will see their doctor now'
Meanwhile, Dr Liz Coulthard, an associate professor in dementia neurology at the University of Bristol, said: "Up to now, many people have not come forward when they first worry about their memory as there were no treatments for dementia.
"It is very likely more people will come to see their doctor now – and we, as doctors, need to be ready. Most people with mild memory symptoms will not have Alzheimer’s disease. We need to develop an effective and quick triage system so we can reassure people without Alzheimer’s and offer treatment to those with Alzheimer’s."
The trial evaluated the drug's ability to reduce cognitive and functional decline based on the Clinical Dementia Rating-Sum of Boxes (CDR-SB), a numerical scale used to quantify the severity of dementia in patients in areas such as memory, orientation, judgment and problem solving and personal care.

Fuel Saving Tips
Lug nuts, if not lubricated occasionally, can seize or "freeze" to the studs due to corrosion. Repairing them can be expensive, too, and having to call a tow truck for a flat you can't remove is even more expensive. The next time you change or rotate your tires, pick up some anti-seize lubricant at your local auto supply store. Clean the stud threads with a wire brush and wipe them with the lubricant. It's formulated to prevent the lug nuts (spark plugs, too) from seizing and won't allow them to loosen as you drive, the way other lubricants might. If a lug nut does freeze to a stud, try spraying the nut and stud with WD-40 or Liquid Wrench. Allow it to penetrate for 10 or 20 minutes. Use a heat gun to apply heat, and then use a ratchet wrench to remove the lug.

Clive Donner directs the legendary George C. Scott in this production of A Christmas Carol that comes to DVD with a standard full-frame transfer. The closed-captioned English soundtrack is rendered in Dolby Digital Surround. English and Spanish subtitles are accessible. There are no supplemental materials of any consequence, but this 20th Century Fox release should satisfy fans of the film as well as those looking for a family-friendly holiday title.
First thing is first. There are a couple remakes available on a Christmas carol. I like this one and the one with Alastair Sim (1951). I think they captured the meaning of the book very well. The transfer on this movie is good, however I am not sure why the aspect ratio is 4:3, not sure why it was filmed that way back in the eighties. The sound is decent too. They show this every year on tv, give it a try and if you like it purchase it.
I enjoyed the movie very much when I saw it, for the first time, on television back in 1984; and I was determined if this movie ever comes out on video, I was going to own one of it. When I saw it was on DVD I bought it. A few years later I saw it was on Blu-Ray, and I liked that one even better.
The theme song of that movie, "God Bless Us Every One", has its lyrics closed-captioned on Blu-Ray disc; which is a definite plus because the DVD I bought, a few years ago, doesn't have the theme song's lyrics captioned on it.
If only there were a few extra features added to the Blu-Ray, I would have rated it as "Excellent" instead of "Good". Namely, I would have liked for some of the music scores, by themselves, to have been added to the Blu-Ray. Specifically, I would love to listen to the score, by itself, of when the Ghost of Christmas Present opens his robe and shows Scrooge the two children, Ignorance and Want.
Other than that I am glad, very glad, I bought this Blu-Ray of George C. Scott as Scrooge.
Since I first saw this version of A Christmas Carol on television as a child I have preferred it to any other version of the film to which I have been exposed. George C Scott plays Scrooge quite well in my opinion.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend
Rated 5 out of 5 stars
Another Christmas classic
Owned for 7 months when reviewed.
This classic tale never gets old. It has been told and retold over and over again. Just about every child knows the story, and the message.
I had to add this dvd to my collection. These classic stories are great to watch with the family during Christmas.

The recent paper from the UK Accounting Standards Board (ASB) was described by Aon Consulting as “another dagger in the side of final salary pensions”. But when is a dagger not a dagger? Apparently, when an organisation or even an individual does something to draw attention to the increasingly unsustainable situation facing many defined benefit pension plans.
The distinction appears to turn on the difference between an act and an omission. So a discussion paper from a standard setter amounts to a ‘dagger’, while the heads-in-sand approach of trades unions to the longevity question falls into an entirely different category - body armour against a stab of reality, perhaps?
The ASB published ‘The Financial Reporting of Pensions’ in January to stimulate debate and influence the IASB’s existing pensions accounting project. At a meeting of the Analysts’ Representative Group on 13 February, IASB chairman Sir David Tweedie made it clear that the board would investigate ways to incorporate the ASB paper’s thinking into their own pensions project (probably as part of the IASB’s planned discussion paper on pensions accounting).
The ASB makes two key proposals:
A risk-free discount rate when measuring the liability, which would obviously make it look much bigger than the current AA corporate bond discount rate; and A proposal that companies should be booking the actual return on the pension fund rather than the expected return.
The implication of this second proposal is that it will produce greater volatility.
Peter Elwin, head of accounting and valuation research at Cazenove, says: “It is just putting pensions to the front of people’s mind and giving them a sense of some of the assumptions that drive the numbers and whether those assumptions are right.”
Noticeably, the paper does not fall back on projected unit credit accounting; it sits on the fence by leaning towards the US GAAP approach of the accumulated benefit obligation - no account of future salary increases.
This might constitute a signal to management to proactively manage their deficit; conversely, it might produce the opposite result with management free to ignore the value of the promises they make.
For a business tired of managing risk and uncertain GAAP, the buy-out route might look like an attractive option. Charles Rodgers of consultants Watson Wyatt agrees: “The opportunity to take risk off the table will start to look a lot more attractive when you are only paying a 5-10% premium compared with the 30%+ at present. That and potentially increased capacity will all make that de-risking much more attractive.”
The ASB report favours a risk-free rate as an alternative to the AA-corporate bond discount rate, suggesting a lack of viable alternatives. “The actuarial view is still focused very much on budgeting rather than on arriving at a present value on the balance sheet,” says Elwin. “They are trying to say what a company would have to do in cash-flow terms over the next 20 years. So the actuaries haven’t really provid-ed any help in terms of the discount rate for accounting purposes.”
Despite this, he continues: “in terms of actuarial firms and their view of accounting, there is now much more of a swing towards the view of ‘if you want to account for it this way, then fair enough’. My feeling is that we are a long way from the days of actuaries saying that such and such a method is simply the wrong way to account for a pension commitment.”
Another report, ‘An Unreal Number; How Company Pension Accounting Fosters an Illusion of Certainty’, published by the Pensions Institute at the Cass Business School, London, argues from the starting point that a single timepoint estimate in a set of accounts fails to account for a wide range of possible future outcomes in the overall funding position of scheme.
The report calls for the development of new tools, such as fan charts, to enable companies to represent the range of probabilities that surround pension obligations.
This is all very much blue-skies thinking. It certainly hints at an additional disclosure, rather than a single accounting measure, if only because the problem with representing a range of estimates in a balance sheet is that it would pretty much fail to balance. In the longer term, it hints at the world of accountancy post-XBRL.


Pyongyang is well on the way to mastering the technologies it needs to build a deliverable nuclear weapon. But the expert contributors to this volume argue convincingly that little will change when North Korea crosses that threshold. The retaliatory capabilities of Japan, South Korea, and the United States are already sufficient to deter Pyongyang from attacking anyone with a nuclear weapon, and North Korea already has enough military power to deter its neighbors from attacking it. China and Russia do not approve of further advances in North Korean nuclear weaponry, but they will continue to support Pyongyang in order to avert a collapse of the North Korean regime, which serves as a buffer against U.S. power. Several contributors believe that the key to changing this dead-end dynamic is for Washington to give Pyongyang diplomatic recognition and institutionalized security guarantees and for South Korea to deepen its engagement with the North, in exchange for a freeze on North Korean weapons development. But these proposals are unlikely to be adopted -- and even if they were, they would probably fail to alleviate the sense of siege that motivated Pyongyang to pursue nuclear weapons in the first place.

Men and Women are getting more and more conscious about their appearance, every body part seems to be improvable with cosmetic surgery these days. Even places such as the feet are not spared from the desire for improvement. Indeed, corrective foot surgery can now be done for cosmetic purposes. In case you love wearing those sexy, feet-baring stilettos, but you can’t stand those bunions, discomfort, or unappealing bulges, your answer may lie at the plastic surgery center of Thailands‘ cosmetic foot surgeries.
Fat reduction for Toes | Putting Your Best Foot Forward
Yes, you read it right. Toes may now undergo slimming through liposuction so they may fit perfectly into those pointed shoes that leave your toes in excruciating pain by the end of the day. However, some women take it at great lengths by going drastic and having the pinkie toe removed.
We use our feet practically everyday and these are the “unfortunate” body parts that would have to bear our full body weight each and every day. With that in mind, heel cushion injections are now becoming a popular cosmetic surgery and involves injecting dermal/tissue filler into the balls of the feet, as well as the heel pads. The wear and tear on your feet are not more than just a cosmetic improvement but can actually help improve the feet’s proper function. The soft tissue fillers, which may be made of either adipose fat (similar to stem cell breast and CAL facelifts ) and act as shock absorbers as you bear weight and move about. The result of having heel cushion injections is increased comfort and diminished pain, and this would appeal most probably to those who are always “on their feet.”
The idea of heel cushions or “foot pillows” has been coined “Loub Jobs,” as the demand for it in Thailand has increased thanks to renowned French shoe designer, Christian Louboutin.
Botox Foot Injections
Botox is not just meant for those forehead creases,vampire lifts or liquid facelifts. It is also useful for the feet to alleviate excessive sweating and stinking. The procedure might be quite painful though, as there’s not enough thick musculature to inject around the feet. But if Botox can treat excessive perspiration in the underarms, then it can do the same for the feet.
Laser is known to quickly eliminate body and foot hair and eliminate toenail fungus or onychomycosis. However, results are not instant for the latter case. Nails don’t typically grow back instantly once they’re eaten up by fungus, and it would take time even with laser therapy. But at least it gives you hope for healthy nails to re-grow.
Pampering Your Soles
If its good for the face chances are that the same ‘magic’ is good for the feet also. Both body parts may be far apart standing on opposite poles, but both are covered with skin. Therefore, feet may indulge in sessions of micro-dermabrasion or chemical peels to rejuvenate the skin on the feet.
If you would like to improve the appearance of your feet, or you’re simply concerned about some foot infection that needs immediate treatment, our team of feet experts in Bangkok or Phuket can certainly put their “best feet forward” to give your feet the treatment that you deserve. You can put your best feet forward then as you head out our facility with revitalized, sexier feet in your new stilettos.

- Hallux valgus correction
- Correction of hammer toes

Turkey passes Bill tightening control of judiciary: Parliament source
Published on Feb 15, 2014 5:34 PM
ANKARA (AFP) - The Turkish Parliament on Saturday passed a contested bill tightening government control over the judiciary, after violent scuffles broke out in the assembly, a Parliament source said.
Fighting erupted between ruling party and opposition lawmakers as the Bill was debated overnight, with at least one deputy seen with a bloodied nose.
Parliament on Friday resumed debate of the Bill despite an uproar from opposition parties and the international community when it was initially tabled last month.
Turkey's government is grappling with a high-level corruption scandal that has ensnared top allies of Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan since it erupted on December 17.

I have always thought of myself as an artist from my earliest memories. I really should give my mother some of the credit for this, because when I would show her my drawings she would exclaim with such drama how wonderful they were that I would walk away thinking to myself, “I am really good at drawing. I am an artist.” So I had a lot of confidence from my earliest years that fueled my enjoyment of it. In grade school I won one reflections contest after another. In middle school it was my pastime of choice and when it came time for the Indian Hills Middle School art show I entered a stack of drawings and watercolors and I won every blue ribbon and the best of show.
I began to enjoy the skill of rendering from life or photos. In middle school I added watercolor to my almost daily art making. It was my favorite after school past-time. I took the art class offered at school in both 7th and 8th grade but I found the assignments more crafty, than challenging. So I did my own thing at home. I was very ambitious in what I drew and painted, like a large painting of a ballet dancer, spending hours on the intricate transparent folds in her skirt, or finding a photo of an animal in nature, rendering carefully the feathers of a bird, or the fir of an animal and enjoying just as much the nature around the subject, carefully drawing the leaves and grass. It was my idea of a good time. When it came time for the Indian Hills Middle School Art Show I brought all of my drawings and paintings to school and entered them. I won the best of show and every blue ribbon. It seemed to me that my art teacher at school saw me for the first time. She had her favorites and I had not been one of them. It was a proud moment. She said, “Katie, you did all this? When did you do all of this?”
In high school I did a mural to decorate the wall of my seminary class, it was a copy of the popular Book of Mormon painting of Abinidi standing before King Noah, using colored chalk pastels. It had nearly life sized figures and I got a lot of attention because of it. I was shy, at least on the inside so I enjoyed the self esteem boost the attention gave me. Painting and drawing continued to be my favorite thing to do. I also kept a daily journal, which was important to my artistic growth because it helped me define myself and my life experience in words. I was on the literary magazine staff at school which was a class, in which we were required to write a poem a day. That also stretched my skills in verbal expression, which was very good for me. I was such a romantic, really. Another big part of my daily enjoyment was practicing the piano. I loved to practice. I could get lost for hours in the intricacies of a Chopin waltz or nocturne. When I decided it was time to make some money I acquired about 10 piano students, young children in the neighborhood. My daily life in almost every aspect swirled around one form of art or another.
My mother is actually an artist and got a degree in art at BYU in the 60s. Her hero is Picasso and I grew up watching her set up a still life and then drawing, and the drawing was always only inspired by the still life. She was drawing in some variation on a theme of cubism, and I was appreciative of her work, but it wasn’t what I did. I drew and painted the world around me. My mom taught me that there was value to drawing from life, and to being original and interpretive in my work. My mother was a wonderful art teacher, my best art teacher in my growing up years.
When I was a senior in high school I began investigating the art departments at the Universities nearby. I took an art class at the University of Utah the summer before my Senior year which I really enjoyed. I also enjoyed driving to Salt Lake City once a week for it…I felt very independent wonderful doing that. I looked at the art department at BYU and decided that was where I wanted to go. I didn’t apply anywhere else. I got a half tuition talent scholarship which was very helpful and validating.
In that first year in college at BYU I was thankfully humbled pretty quickly. The foundations art classes were more rigorous and challenging than I ever imagined possible, and I loved it. I had drawing light with Doug Himes that first semester in 1989, and I spent hours and hours on his drawing assignments, determined to get them right. I had drawing nature with Brent Gehring. We drew leaves for weeks. He taught me about finding and contour lines like no one ever had before. It was so valuable to me. In the second semester was a class about color with Bruce Smith. We did these abstract color compositions. He would give a score out of 10 for each one. It was not about rendering, the skill I was so practiced at. I turned my first composition in and I got an 8 out of 10. I didn’t know why. But I would work on it and turn it in again, and again until I got a 10, and then I would understand better, the difference.
I became aware during this first year, that the BFA students that were further along in the program, and especially the graduate students, and the professors had some theme going on in their work…something they wanted to say and some certain way they wanted to say it, again and again. I began to want this in my own work. But….what did I want to say? I really did not know…I had for my whole life been content with just drawing anything I felt like in the moment, but it was about just drawing, or painting which was just drawing with a brush.
It was in my second year of college and I had for months been searching for what I wanted to say…what inspired me with a deeper meaning that I would be able to communicate with paint that had potential for exploration. I longed and yearned to find something….but what?
One evening I was alone in my apartment and I was longing and yearning for this, and feeling not a little frustrated, when I decided to pray about it. I believe it was the first time I had prayed about my art, something I do now all the time but at that time in my life I don’t think it had ever occurred to me. So, I got on my knees to ask Heavenly Father for inspiration and when I opened my eyes I saw such a beautiful peaceful scene. The sun was setting and the light was soft and peaceful. There were no lights on inside. There was an old chair by the window and the light was hitting it just so and it looked so peaceful and inviting and meditative. I was filled with a desire to paint it, and I did. It quickly occurred to me how multilayered the scene could be: There was the light coming in, and the empty chair inviting, and the chair being sort of figurative…I got very excited and I knew my prayer had been answered. I began painting all kinds of chairs, most always beside of window…it created a visual dialogue that was way too much fun. I began going to Deseret Industries and buying chairs, a variety of them. I played around with different mediums and techniques, exploring.
Then I took a trip to Washington state and experienced a rainforest for the first time. Having not been out of Utah except for a couple of family vacations to the beach in California, this was amazing to me. I stood there in the dark shady forest, trees towering above me….so tall, so incredibly majestic! To me it was temple or cathedral like, and worshipful, the sun filtering through the trees like stained glass. I had to paint the inside of a forest.
As I began to paint the inside of a forest, I wanted to communicate the light coming in all around in varying shades and colors. I quickly felt the similarity to my chair paintings which always incorporated a window. I realized that it was this theme of light coming in that made my soul sing. In the forest paintings I used the verticles of the trees to separate panels of color which gave me the opportunity to incorporate the principles of composition I learned from Bruce Smith in the abstract color class I enjoyed so much. I loved abstracting and interpreting the forest and the light in this way. Bruce was my advisor as a BFA student, and he was very pleased with them, which added fuel to my excitement.
First I did several small forest paintings. The process I went through was different than I had ever experienced in so sublime a way. I would go into my studio each day and work on these small paintings. I would look at them, and look at them, change a panel of color to a different hue or value or both, slightly changing the composition, working and reworking marks that implied leaves or grass or mist, finding the right place for each one to finally have the vibe and composition I was after. Layers of paint giving them a rhythmic vibration and depth that I was discovering that oil paint can do. I became completely absorbed in the process as hours would go by, the world happening all around me but I was inside a different dimension of space and time…at least that is what it felt like.
Next came my final show. For the final show for my BFA I proposed to do these forest paintings big. Doing so was harder than I thought it would be, and there were things going on in my personal life that threatened to pull the rug out from under me and break my focus, and did, but I was able to get back up and steady myself with Heavenly Father’s help. In the spring of 1993 I finished 10 large forest paintings for my final show and got my BFA degree. I was grateful to have accomplished it but I honestly didn’t want that college experience to end. It was wonderful.
I did apply to a couple of graduate schools right away, but did not get accepted. I got pregnant with my first, and fell right in love with this amazing baby boy, and he became my focus. I didn’t want to spend any more time away from him than I had to so I didn’t re-apply for graduate school. I saw a need to make some money, and I didn’t want to leave my baby, so I came up with a money making at home plan. I painted a quaint little painting of a home and I put Hunter on my back in the baby back pack, and set off hiking through nice neighborhoods. I would knock on doors, small painting in hand, Hunter peeking over my shoulder cute as a button, and ask people if they would like a painting of their home. If they said yes, I would take a picture of their home right then. Many customers would then have me paint other things. These were almost all oil paintings, and so I was employing my rendering skills with oil paint. I did this in 1994-96, while living in Salt Lake City, Connecticut, Annapolis Maryland and Columbus Ohio where my husband was going to graduate school.
I stopped that self employment when I began working for an artist, Ann Hamilton. I watched her baby boy, actually, who was a year younger than Hunter, who was 2, and I did that for a couple of years while still living in Ohio. From that time on till my third child was 8 my painting was constantly there but I was just not very prolific or ambitious with my efforts. I needed it for my soul, and I always had a painting I was working on, but I was completely absorbed in being a mother to 3 wonderful children that Heavenly Father gave me. I had Hunter in 1994, Dominique in 1997, and Trevor in 2002.
Since this is supposed to be about my art story, about the art endeavors in my life, I am avoiding for the most part the details of my personal life. I do this because it is practical….but I feel the need to say that I don’t believe that art is can be totally separate from one’s personal life. Art is about life, and a persons art is an expression of their self and their life. Indeed, life is itself an artistic expression in the way you respond to it. But it isn’t practical to tell everything here so suffice it to say that I have lived in Pennsylvania for over a decade, with a short adventure in Montana, in between. I have developed in the last 20 years a love for painting and gardening and my children have been my biggest joy. I could not have plowed through the trials without the gospel and my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
In 2010 I relaunched my efforts to have a career as a studio artist. In 2010 I turned 40, and I had my first solo show at a gallery. The Ragged Edge in Gettysburg Pennsylvania which doubles as a café and art gallery gave me a show, in which I painted forests and chairs, picking up where I left off in college. I have continued to show at the Ragged Edge once or twice a year for the last 7 years.
I also have gallery representation at the Red Raven Art Company in Lancaster Pennsylvania. They are a wonderfully lovely community of artists that I have really enjoyed being a part of. You can find me on their website in their Visiting Artist section under Katheryn Stott.
I have had some shows at other locations also over the last 7 years. There was one at the Provo Utah City library, one at the William Gutherie library in Hanover Pennsylvania, to name a couple. I have been in some juried shows, and won a some awards for my efforts.
I have taught at the community center in East Berlin Pennsylvania, as well as in my home there, some painting classes for adults as well as lots of art classes for children. Sometimes I get invited to teach large groups elsewhere, in churches or in people’s homes. I have discovered that I actually love to teach art!
