Stanley's blog

There have been, and will continue to be media articles, commentaries and analyses on the Beijing Olympics and their effect on China itself, and on its relationship with and future policies towards Europe, the United States and other major countries. It is still too soon to attempt any considered conclusions, but some general observations and perspective are offered.

China and the Olympics

Deng’s 24 character strategy was: “Observe calmly; secure our position; cope with affairs calmly; hide our capacities and bide our time; be good at maintaining a low profile; and never claim leadership.” He was always concerned to avoid other countries feeling threatened and ganging up to block China’s rise.

China’s decision in late nineties to bid for the Beijing Olympics and its overall approach to organising them appear to be in direct contradiction to the Deng policy. Is this really so? If so, why?

What was China’s grand strategy? Who were the primary targets to impress? The events beginning with the Tibet riots of March 2008 brought the spotlight on external happenings but foreign policy does not appear to have been the primary concern: rather the sustainment of and increase in legitimacy of the CCP.

The 2008 Pew Research poll found 80% Chinese satisfied with the way things were going and with the state of the economy, more than in any other country polled.

One can only talk in superlatives about the Opening and Closing Ceremonies, which met the highest expectations. The planning, preparation, construction, organisation and management do not appear to have met with any material criticism.

Politics and the Olympics

Politics first seriously affected the Berlin Games in 1936, but political incidents have since marred the 1968 Mexico Games (‘black power salutes’), the 1972 Munich Games (terrorist murder of Israeli athletes), the 1976 Montreal Games (African Boycott over apartheid), the 1980 Moscow Games (boycott because of invasion of Afghanistan and the 1984 Los Angeles Games (retaliatory boycott led by Russia).

The idea of totally separating the Olympic Games from politics has long been a myth. Countries seek to host the Games for a variety of reasons, but political prestige is always present, to a greater or lesser degree. There were reservations over awarding the event to Beijing, both in the field of human rights and press freedom and also pollution levels, and conditions were agreed between the IOC and Beijing. There has been criticism of IOC attitudes as to Chinese compliance with the conditions and the lack of transparency over what was happening.

Attendance at the Beijing Opening Ceremony became to Beijing a test of Chinese standing and huge efforts were made to ensure that the attendance was of the highest order. In the event, no less than 90 heads of government and state attended.

Freedom of expression

How serious were the reporting restrictions placed on foreign and domestic journalists, including internet? The first priority of the Chinese authorities was to enforce order and control protests. Visa restrictions and arbitrary directives were inevitable. Although this led to less foreign visitors, the policy was on the whole successful. But old habits die hard and this meant that some of the implementers of this policy used old-fashioned methods to handle minor incidents.

“Protest zones” were set up at a distance from the Games but no permissions were apparently given and activists were harassed. The arrest of two late seventy-year old women, for wishing to protest against receiving insufficient compensation for being forcibly moved, received extensive foreign news coverage. What was the point then in the protest zone charade? Was it necessary for the authorities to arrest the two women?

Beijing has consistently argued that there was full freedom to report the Games but domestic law had to be obeyed in relation to other reporting.

Chinese reactions

There was great satisfaction throughout China with the brilliant organisation and winning of the most gold medals. The environmental conditions attracted far less criticism during the events than before them. Given the extraordinary individual performances of athletes, this is unsurprising.

The patriotic fervour was unmistakeable and is linked to the determination to win. This is healthy provided that it remains patriotism and not nationalism. The dividing line between the two is blurred. Patriotism is a constructive force which looks to the future and will help Chinese integration internationally. Nationalism is destructive, rooted in past humiliations and potentially dangerous as it breeds xenophobia.

Patriotism helps build self-confidence, which also makes it easier to cope with constructive criticism and thereby better able to respond. This in turn helps reduce embarrassment, the concern for loss of face and hypersensitivity. Nationalism is a sentiment which is not in the long term interests of the Government or the Party to foster as it is a two-edged sword and potentially destabilising.

An ongoing worry is the relevance the events between March and August, beginning with the Tibet riots, will have on the China-EU relationship. There was clearly a deep resentment of the way Europeans reacted to the events in Tibet and a feeling, particularly among the younger generation, of being let down.

Arguably, the CCP has gained most from the successful Olympic Games. It has reinforced its legitimacy in the eyes of the Chinese people. But it cannot rest on its laurels.

European reactions

The discipline of the Chinese and the determination to succeed were omnipresent. Chinese patriotism shone throughout, but not at the expense of spectator support for foreign successes.

The successes of the Games muted criticisms, and the risk taken by the Chinese authorities imposing strict controls was borne out.

A successful Olympic Games was in European interests too. A more confident China should be a better partner for Europe. But misperceptions still abound and the European Union and the People’s Republic of China must put more financial and human resource into building mutual understanding.

Author :

  1. Stanley, I appreciate most of your points except that you stopped short of elaborating why no efforts are spared to strengthen law and order in such an autocracy during the critical period of social and economic transformation of China.

    First of all, Asians’ mindset remains governed with a strong sense of humility. This sanse and behvavior bow to the authority of the central government, look self-depricating in coping with Western powers and their values and compliant with discipline, governmental or corporate alike.

    Secondly, modernization looks set to instable with conflicted party interests between different social and economic forces.

    The one-party rule fears criticisms and opposition by nature. But a more open and liberal China welcomes quiet diplomacy and constructive supervision and mild criticism should the accusations focus on malign events such as SARS and poisonous milk powder. The frailty and fray under a suspicious stare of the West put the state police instinct on alert constantly.

    The rise of the middle class favor or tolerate the current social and political order as they are the beneficiary of the reform. And this sense of broad tolerance has its historical and nationalistic root as China was forced open in a humiliating way in the mid-19th century. Years of official indoctrination since the founding of the PRC has fueled the sentiments which is called nationalism. But I told Peter Sutherland that the Chinese nationalism should be viewed as defensive and not half as aggressive as the US unilateralism which is characterized by pre-emptive strikes and the defiance over the International Criminal Court and the Kyoto Protocal. You know better which democracy I am alluding to.

    The central authorities favor social rennovation or reform over subversive revolution as they choose to employ the notion of harmonious society or scientific outlook about social development. A party that seized power through uprisings or violence tends to prevent social changes through similar tough methods.

    Another aspect of the Chinese national ethos that upsets me has been the traditional virtue of the citizens to priotize the economic livelihoods over anything else, and their short-sightedness in the social awareness tend to put efficiency ahead of social justice.

    The culture of compassion or charity is missing in a ancient culture that finds its legitimacy in hundreds of years of brutal totalitarian dictatorship. Pockets of such noble and human charitable spirit could only be detected in the wild and romantic behavior of poets such as Li Bai in the Tang Dynasty and then these rebellious personalities ended up being hermits when their political ambitions were left disillusioned and dashed.

    That’s said, the present-day China is not a monolithic whole. The voices are more diverse and as polarized as the economic incomes.

The Comrades of Honor Series by Alicia Willis

The Comrades of Honor Series is a Medieval Adventure trilogy by Christian author and historian Alicia Willis. The series is advertised as "detailing the lives and thrilling adventures of several young men and women during the Middle Ages. Courage, loyalty, respect, and chivalry flood each page, thus coupling Godly character with exciting plots and often little-known historical facts."

Considering how some Medieval novels for the secular market seem to fall short in many ways, it is good to find some in the Christian market.
However, being Christian does not mean a story has to compromise on those values which make for first rate Historical Fiction such as solid research, realism, a faithful and accurate rendering of the past, and of course a good well-told story. The Comrades of Honor Series even has its own website which can be visited by clicking the link.

Thus without further ado, here is a little introduction to her Medieval novels:

Book One: To Birmingham Castle, A Tale of Friendship and Adventure

 "The time is the Middle Ages, a time of clashing arms, valiant knights, and intriguing castles. Join Robert Fitz Hasseltine, a young nobleman of unchallenged character and the heir to his uncle's vast earldom. Valiant, yet merciful, Robert's steadfast determination to aid the weak brings him face to face with several individuals who urgently need his protective care--individuals who must throw themselves upon his compassion and rely on his strength to overcome their pasts and lead successful lives.

Yet the days are volatile, and danger lurks on the horizon. There are dangerous enemies who hate Robert's steadfast character and ever-present mercy--enemies who would do anything to vanquish his compassion and shower their malice upon his cause. A thrilling adventure commences, coupling victory, peril, friendship, and rivalry. During his eventful journey from squire to knight to earl, Robert's courage is strongly tested and his strength challenged. Will he be able to overcome the enemies that beset him and proclaim himself the undisputed lord of his shire? And, above all, will he abide true to his resolve and prove to be a kind, considerate master?

Join Robert and his steadfast friends, Brandon, Strephon, Nathaniel, and Narcissa, in their long journey of friendship and adventure, and experience the thrilling perils of life at Birmingham Castle!

A novel of adventure, suspense, friendship, and courage, as a young man embarks on a perilous journey to overcome tyranny and reform chivalry in medieval England.

In just a few weeks the  second book in the series is due for release:

Book 2: In Search of Adventure, A Tale of Courage and Devotion

"Enter In Search of Adventure, the thrilling second installment of The Comrades of Honor Series! Packed with action at every bend, this tale takes up the story of Nathaniel de Lance, once the page of Sir Robert.
    Now a young man and belted knight, Sir Nathaniel takes young Kenneth Dale for his squire, a boy left destitute by a stroke of ill-fortune. Quickly learning to trust and care for each other, Sir Nathaniel and Kenneth become fast friends, little knowing how much they will need their mutual comradeship.
    Taking advantage of his liberty as a knight, Sir Nathaniel leaves his boyhood home to visit old friends. The small journey quickly takes an unexpected turn, however, and climaxes into a perilous adventure. Old enemies revisit the scene, creating hazards that require all of Sir Nathaniel’s strength and valor to overcome. Trapped in a hostile country, the question arises: Will he ever return?
    Join Sir Nathaniel and Kenneth in their rousing adventure and witness the perils that strengthen their courage. Their friendship is extraordinary – but will the rewards of their devotion be greater still?
    A novel of adventure, comradeship, and suspense, as a valiant knight seeks to overcome his merciless foes and retain honor in a hostile land.

I only discovered Alicia's work fairly recently through a list I created on in which someone had voted for her first novel To Birmingham Castle.
Though I was not home-schooled like Alicia, much of the history I learned between school and University was self-taught, and I hope to become a historian one day (if almost being a BA Graduate in Medieval History does not qualify me as one already).

For me, a genuine understanding of the past and of the people who lived it is also an important ingredient of historical fiction, as the imposition of modern beliefs, standards, values and ideals onto the past is something I find incredibly irksome.

So seeing that one reviewer commended Alicia's work as presenting a faithful picture of the values and mores of the time period commended her book to me. Needless to say To Birmingham Castle is somewhere near the top of my To Read List, I might even have the honour of being be the first English person to review it...

'A Heart Decieved' by Michelle Griep

A Heart Deceived  Michelle Griep
 20th June 2013, 387 Pages
A Heart Deceived breaks rather new ground for author Michelle Griep. A regency as you likely have not seen it before. Little in the way of bonnets and balls here, rather this story opts for darker and more difficult subject matter including drug addiction, corruption, madness and even murder, but also redemption and a hint of romance.
The central characters Miri and Ethan were certainly interesting and well- drawn, though Ethan’s ‘journey’ and struggles are perhaps more poignant and his story perhaps a little more complete.
The romantic elements also seem to be generally done well, except some passages I did not like for their seeming to border on suggestiveness or sensuality, like Miri just happening to meet Ethan when he had is shirt collar loosened, and them ending up almost doing something inappropriate, when I doubt any gentleman would dare to present himself to a Lady in such a way.

The central theme of the story appears to be that of deceit and its impact upon the characters’ lives and story, in which the actions and deeds that have sought to run away from or hide from others both threaten to destroy them.
Whilst it is easy for the characters to grow attached to the protagonists, and vouch for them through their struggles, their exact circumstances may not be such as most readers could relate to. Most people don’t have to conceal their siblings’ descent into violent lunacy after all, though the hopelessness of a life without God, and the necessity of trusting in him are themes which could speak to many.
Yet, maybe somehow there were aspects of the story which were lacking. I felt for instance that as much as the author wanted to make this book ‘grittily’ realistic, it had some of the same problems as her previous titles in this regard.

I’m not really familiar with this period at all, but I did feel that is that the nastiness and unpleasantness of the setting and circumstances sometimes seem a little exaggerated and overdone, especially in the later part of the story.
18th century London may have been an unpleasant place to live for the poor, but I don’t think all the poor areas were entirely squalid, vermin infested slums, and the period was that of the Enlightenment so I found the descriptions of the conditions and treatment of inmates in the asylum to be a little implausible.
And would people with facial disfigurements really have been consigned to an insane asylum? I don't know. Also the villain seemed to be able to get away a little too easily with unlawful acts like having someone imprisoned indefinitely without charge which was been prohibited even under the Magna Carta. I mean was every court official really so corrupt?

On a spiritual level, the Christian theme was well done, but the treatment of the gospel message and those who delivered it was not something I always felt entirely comfortable with.
It was Miri’s mad murderous brother, and other unsavoury characters who were depicted as delivering a message on sin and condemnation, but the ‘good guys’ who gave one focusing more on mercy and love. This did seem a little like watering down, or as though the former was presented as a ‘bad’ way of preaching what is an integral part of the gospel.

Altogether, Heart Deceived is a worthwhile read with an original plot, despite some shortcomings and reservations I would recommend it.
I received a copy of this book from Netgalley for review. All opinions expressed in it are my own.

Shoulder Clapper and Catch Pole......A Word Search.

The use of unusual period terms and phrases can add that certain something to a novel (depending on how it is used and the overall content) and author Michelle Griep makes frequent use thereof in her new novel A Heart Deceived set in 1795 England.
The villain, Nigel Thorne, a well drawn and delightfully dastardly (apart from his murderous tendencies) individual loves to use period slang terms which would probably have been recognized by persons belonging to the disreputable circles that he frequents.

For the most part I had just passed over most of these in ignorance, but last week I decided to indulge in an activity which can bring me enjoyment, never mind enlightenment- word searching! Yes, I like words. I like looking up the origins of words, or the meanings of unfamiliar ones.
One particular scene in Chapter 16 is which Thorne is about his dodgy business provides some interesting material. At the Chancery Court (those familiar with Dickens Bleak House may know of it) our villain asks for 'a certain patent' from a young clerk.
My training in Medieval History has taught me what that particular term means. A Letter Patent was a type of official letter or document, its name deriving from the Latin patens meaning 'open' or 'accessible'.  In this sense it meant that the document was meaning 'made public' originally it meant a letter that was not closed with a seal, and so could be read by anyone.

In the chapter in question, the patent was a document like this which had something to do with the matter of an entailment. My historical training came in handy there too- I know 'entailment' generally
had to do with the inheritance of land or property.
Thorne however runs into trouble when he comes face to face with the Barrister who is in charge of the case, and on being asked who he is advertises himself in his capacity as a Bailiff as a the best  catch-pole and shoulder clapper in the land.

Bailiffs do exist in America of course, and the office existed in the Medieval period in several European nations but in good old England they were officers or officials whose duties could involve arresting criminals, and collecting fines, among other things. Even today in England bailiffs may be sent to the homes of an unfortunate individual who cannot pay their taxes with the power to seize goods.

So what exactly do catch-pole and  shoulder-clapper mean? Both are terms that Mr Thorne uses to refer to himself. The first, according to Wikipedia is identified under the surname derived from the term- surprisingly Catchpole, and is said to have originally referred to 'a type of tax collector in medieval England'. To elaborate further:

"At that time, tax-gathering was contracted out, a system called tax farming. The catchpole paid a lump sum to be authorised to collect taxes from a given area or population, and was then able to keep whatever he could extract, using almost any method he came up with.
Later, the duties of the 'catchpole' were those of a legal official, working for the bailiff. He was mainly responsible for collecting debts, using methods hardly more restrained than those of his tax gathering forebears.[1]"
So what of the second? Finding the meaning of this could prove a little more difficult as clapping a person on the shoulder can be a friendly gesture, and Nigel Thorne is most certainly not the friendly type.
The Merriam Webster dictionary shed some light on the term where it is listed as an archaic term for a Bailiff, and another site gives its meaning as 'Sergeant or Bailiff', and perhaps was some reference to the action of arresting someone.

So essentially ol' Nigel was just using another name for a Bailiff, (but making out he was a very good one) with a good capacity for the duty of collecting taxes, and bringing in persons sought by the law, as per some of the traditional duties of the role.
 Hopefully, this foray into the more obscure oddities of English Vocabulary may prove profitable (at least to people who read A Heat Deceived or were curious about what these terms meant, if the reader is not too lost, confused or asleep by now.....

Messenger Kids, Facebook’s messaging assistance for little ones, is rolling out to Android buyers now. It’s a daring transfer, offered that the app has gotten a lot of heat because its start in December. Just about a hundred baby overall health advocates signed a letter to Mark Zuckerberg final month urging him to delete the app, and Wired documented now that several of the specialists who gave Messenger Kids their stamp of approval had been funded by the social network.

For the uninitiated, Messenger Kids is for kids as youthful as 6, and it lets moms and dads handle who their little ones can communicate to on the assistance. It’s unsurprising Fb would make a play to appeal to younger buyers, offered that its main social network needs you to be 13 or more mature. A Fb spokesperson informed Gizmodo in an email that a inspiration guiding launching the app was that “many of us at Fb are moms and dads ourselves, and it appears we weren’t by yourself when we understood that our kids had been receiving on the web earlier and earlier.” The spokesperson then noted that, in accordance to an exterior study from Dubit, 93 p.c of 6- to 12-year-olds in the US have access to tablets or smartphones.

The spokesperson also claimed that for over a year, the firm has listened to “thousands of moms and dads via roundtable conversations, investigate, and within our personal walls at Fb, and they’ve expressed the need to have for safer on the web activities personalized to kids’ requires. We also formed an advisory committee of specialists from the fields of baby progress, media and on the web protection to support notify our work on the app.”

But, as Wired documented, most of the specialists tasked with scrutinizing the app experienced financial ties to Fb, developing a crystal clear conflict of interest. Rather than interact with its fiercest critics, or even critics who did not have their hands in Facebook’s pockets, the social network chose specialists probably to lean in its favor. This casts doubt on how credible the critiques are, and it indicators that Fb cares a lot more about lip assistance than significant results.

There isn’t a lot of worthwhile evidence suggesting that youthful little ones ought to be roped into the entire world of social media. The letter from the Marketing campaign for a Commercial-Free of charge Childhood stated a range of developmental issues attributed to display time and social media use. And that does not even scratch the surface of the potential privateness and security implications kids are now vulnerable to. Regardless of parental controls, content material violating conditions of assistance, like hateful or inappropriate content material, will be up to Fb to deal with. As we’ve observed, it has still to demonstrate it can reasonable without having some screwups.

It continues to be to be observed how widely Messenger Kids will be adopted by Android buyers, but app information firm Application Annie rated it thirty sixth on Apple’s Application Retail outlet charts for “Kids Apps” in the US as of the conclude of January, and it was rated fifth between “9-eleven Kids Apps” in the US on iOS. It’s much from as well known as Facebook’s normal Messenger app, but it’s plainly receiving some use.

“Will Fb hear?” the Marketing campaign for a Commercial-Free of charge Childhood claimed in an emailed assertion to Gizmodo final month. “I think we’re at a pivotal instant wherever there is raising worry about the part that the massive tech organizations are owning in shaping our little ones, our families, our culture and democracy. Finding rid of an app that habituates youthful little ones into utilizing social media appears like a very good initially stage for Mark Zuckerberg to make very good on his pledge to ‘do superior.’”

Supplied today’s enlargement to Android, it does not seem like Fb has any options to gradual its campaign to tighten its grip on youthful minds.

Blue Shoes with Stampin UP Guy Greetings

Hey guys,

So are you loving the other cards in this series of cards.  I have been having great fun using the Guy Greetings stamp set from Stampin Up.  Today’s card is Blue Shoes and has been made using the Stampin Up Guy Greetings stamp set.

I have changed the colours again and this time have used pool party.  I used the gorgeous large dots embossing folder to create the background.  Isn’t this just too cute.
blue shoes with Stampin Up Guy Greetings

The base of my card is very vanilla and I have stamped the shoes directly onto the inside of the card.  The front was matted and layered.  The shoes were stamped in a line using my Stampa -ma – jig.  This is a great tool for being able to line up stamped images and get them exactly where I need them to be.

I also used it put the sentiment onto the top of the shoes.

The little banner sentiment was stamped and then I used the snips to cut the banner ends into it.  The edges of the matting and layering have been distressed with the same colour ink to give definition to the card.

This would make a great birthday card for the fashionista male in your household.

As always all the products used to make this card can be purchased from my online shop simply by clicking the link in the side bar.

Starting his fieldwork and investigations in 1960, after traveling and trekking extensively in pursuit of cryptozoological mysteries, Coleman began writing to share his experiences in 1969. An honorary member of Ivan T. Sanderson’s Society for the Investigation of the Unexplained in the 1970s, Coleman has been bestowed with similar honorary memberships of the North Idaho College Cryptozoology Club in 1983, and in subsequent years, that of the British Columbia Scientific Cryptozoology Club, CryptoSafari International, and other international organizations. He was also a Life Member and Benefactor of the International Society of Cryptozoology (now-defunct). Loren Coleman’s daily blog, as a member of the Cryptomundo Team, served as an ongoing avenue of communication for the ever-growing body of cryptozoo news from 2005 through 2013. He returned as an infrequent contributor beginning Halloween week of 2015. Coleman is the founder in 2003, and current director of the International Cryptozoology Museum in Portland, Maine.

So I was wrong the F4 did take a few good pictures. This is Provincetown right at the tip of the cape. This is the Ken Rockwell digital camera and F4 scanned at the 1 hour photo shop.

Dallas Honor Guard Needs Your Help

This is an archived article and the information in the article may be outdated. Please look at the time stamp on the story to see when it was last updated.

DALLAS -- "We in the Honor Guard don't know any other way to show our respect than being members of the Honor Guard and being there to represent our family."

Those words from Dallas Police Department Senior Corporal Lance Crawford were put into action just a month ago. The Police Honor Guard made sure their brothers in blue were given the greatest glory all while weathering the toughest times of their careers.

"You're helpless on the sidelines," Sr. Cpl. Crawford said. "This is the only way we have of giving back."

Now, we in the public are being called to help our keepers of the code.

"We decided it was really important that we send as many of our Honor Guard members to Washington, D.C., when our four officers are put on the Memorial Wall," Sr. Cpl. Crawford said. "It's very expensive."

The Honor Guard is a volunteer unit. They get their regular pay when they're representing on the road, being marked as "On Assignment," but travel, lodging, and food costs are all on them.

So they're requesting additional dollars in one of two ways:

"We're just asking the public's help in sending as many of us as possible," Sr. Cpl. Crawford said.

Regardless of the funds raised, many Honor Guard members will pay out of pocket to make sure our four DPD heroes get hometown support in D.C., then at the state memorial in Austin, and finally  in Dallas during next May's National Police Week.

Why don't we lighten their load one more time, though, to thank them for standing strong for those who were lost too soon?

Join Me In Petersburg This Summer

Join Me In Petersburg This Summer post image

I am pleased to announce that I will once again be participating in the annual Civil War seminar sponsored by The George Tyler Moore Center at Shepherd University.  In the summer of 2007 [here and here/photos] I took part in the center’s conference on Civil War Memory.  It was a wonderful experience and I couldn’t be happier to be joining Mark Snell and the rest of the staff this summer in Petersburg, Virginia.  This is the first year that the conference will take place away from its home base on the campus of Shepherd University.  The conference is being co-sponsored by Pamplin Park.  This year’s theme is, “Petersburg: In the Trenches with the Common Soldier” and it includes a first-rate line-up of scholars and two days of touring the various sites and battlefields in the Petersburg area.  Will Greene will be conducting all of the tours and lectures will be presented by Earl Hess, Christopher Stowe, Dennis Brandt, and Walter Powell.  I am looking forward to the chance to finally meet Earl Hess.  In many ways he is responsible for my interest in Petersburg and the Crater specifically.  Back in 2003 I collected a broad range of archival materials for what became Prof. Hess’s third volume in his series on earthworks.  That material on Petersburg proved to be extremely helpful in shaping my own work on memory and the battle of the Crater.

My own lecture is titled, “Mahone’s Brigade and the Defense of Petersburg.”  While this talk is based on my extensive research of Mahone’s brigade at the Crater, I hope to present a broader picture of the unit throughout the summer and fall of 1864.  Over the past five years I’ve read scores of letters and diaries from these men and this will give me a chance to try out some ideas that fall outside the purview of my Crater project.  The exploration of the connection between the battlefield and home front is nothing new to historians, but often the discussion comes across as overly abstract.  The Petersburg Campaign, however, is one of the few moments during the Civil War where the battlefield and home front were indistinguishable.  For the men of Mahone’s Brigade Petersburg and the surrounding area was literally their home.  I am convinced that their close contact with a civilian population shaped the way these men responded to the presence of black Union soldiers at the Crater.  How else did close proximity to civilians and family shape the outlook of these men on the war?  Stay tuned.

Dating a guy who used to be fat

24-Jun-2017 14:08

What I needed was someone to find out exactly why I was eating to excess.The recent case of an 11-year old boy from Norfolk whose parents were arrested because he tipped the scales at a "dangerously overweight" 15 stone brought the memories of my own childhood flooding back these memories.It’s typical that when a child has a behaviour restricted, they do the precise opposite as soon as they get the chance. I went from seven and a half stone at the age of 11 to a massive 17 stone by the time I was 16, even though I was a mere 5’8 in height. It was presumed by everyone that I was just being greedy, and rebellious, and that I needed punishing.

However, those “ideals” presented by media, fashion and popular culture diminish, demean and leave out a lot of people, not just because of their size but because of their ethnicity, ability, gender presentation or class.

If you would feel a lot better meeting that ideal, you could easily swing it by taking a shower in the morning when the water’s not hot enough, or getting half-dressed for work while watching Have a sex, sexual-health or relationships question you want answered? By sending a question to that address, you acknowledge you give permission for your question to be published.

Show & Tell Come To Life

Show & Tell by Cynthia von Buhler.
Above: Cosette Chapiteau (as Show) and Sucre d’Orge (as Tell)

The Dr. Sketchy Anti-Art School Art Star Tribute in my honor was delightful! Below you will find a video of people sketching the models as they pose while the talented Howard Fishman (guitar) and Russell Farhang (violin) perform their song Gypsy Waltz. Gypsy Waltz plays whenever someone gets close to the interactive painting. -Cynthia von Buhler
This painting was commissioned for the cover of Communication Arts. The multimedia painting explores the use of word versus action with hidden visual and auditory messages.
Above: Cosette Chapiteau (as Show) and Sucre d’Orge (as Tell)
A drawing inspired by the above pose by Yao Xiao.

When you approach the painting a violin waltz can be heard coming from Tell's heart.
When you look inside Show's keyhole you see a tiny lit up diorama of a framed Man Ray photograph.
A few sketches inspired by the painting and pose are below:

Belen Gaard by Cynthia von Buhler.

Model Cosette Chapiteau
I'm No Angel by Cynthia von Buhler.

Model Sucre d'Orge
Drawing inspired by the pose and art by Rita Flores.

Fidelio by Cynthia von Buhler.

Joan of Arc by Cynthia von Buhler. Some people believe that they saw a white dove fly out of Joan of Arc's heart when she was burned at the stake. This painting was a book cover for Beyond The Myth: The Story of Joan of Arc. It also appeared on the cover of Step By Step.

Model Cosette Chapiteau as Joan of Arc.

Drawing inspired by this painting and pose.

The beautifully delicate Sucre d'Orge disrobes for us. Please do not watch this if you are offended by nudity.

Magic! Just for fun Cynthia made a dove appear and disappear:What is that on Cynthia's face in the video above? Live sleeping cockroaches, of course. How do you do this? 1) Place them in the freezer for 1 hour and they peacefully doze off. They don't feel a thing. 2) Glue them to your face with the tiniest bit of eyelash glue. 3) They will wake well rested a few hours later.

After the event Cynthia held a salon party at her Chelsea Hotel room. Sketches from the event were displayed next to the painting which inspired them. Models posed nude while artists drew them. Yao Xiao documented the party with her lovely drawings. You can hire her to document your own parties. Find out more about her HERE.A couple days after the party we all realized that Cynthia had been staying in the room where Sid (Sex Pistols) and Nancy had stayed and where she was murdered. Creepy. We had thought the butterfly curtains were in her honor. Here is artist and author Katelan Foisy's take on the evening.

Additional pictures from the event can be found HERE.

Superconductivity across Lifshitz transition and anomalous insulating state in surface K–dosed (Li0.8Fe0.2OH)FeSe

In iron-based superconductors, understanding the relation between superconductivity and electronic structure upon doping is crucial for exploring the pairing mechanism. Recently, it was found that, in iron selenide (FeSe), enhanced superconductivity (Tc of more than 40 K) can be achieved via electron doping, with the Fermi surface only comprising M-centered electron pockets. By using surface K dosing, scanning tunneling microscopy/spectroscopy, and angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy, we studied the electronic structure and superconductivity of (Li0.8Fe0.2OH)FeSe in the deep electron-doped regime. We find that a Γ-centered electron band, which originally lies above the Fermi level (EF), can be continuously tuned to cross EF and contribute a new electron pocket at Γ. When this Lifshitz transition occurs, the superconductivity in the M-centered electron pocket is slightly suppressed, and a possible superconducting gap with a small size (up to ~5 meV) and a dome-like doping dependence is observed on the new Γ electron pocket. Upon further K dosing, the system eventually evolves into an insulating state. Our findings provide new clues to understand superconductivity versus Fermi surface topology and the correlation effect in FeSe-based superconductors.

What does it mean to be "in Christ"?

For 2017, the phrase I am focusing on is "in Christ."  Each week, I will post 1 verse that includes the phrase "in Christ". I look forward to growing in understanding of what it means to be "in Christ."
I give thanks to my God always for you because of the grace of God that was given you in Christ Jesus, (1 Corinthians 1:4)

Happy 10th Birthday, Molly!

Well to the happiness of the blogosphere, Sarah Palin has confirmed that her 17 y o daughter is five months pregnant. Congrats.  So is that some how to supposed to diminish her qualifications as a VP contender?  In actuality, this probably does more to assist her.  How many of you who want to cast the first stone, haven't had this issue come about in your own families?  I thought so.

The Palin parents are supporting their daughter in this time of trial and let her decide on her own, they say, to keep the child.  Congrats to them.  This is consistent with what Mrs. Palin stands for, but just as importantly, good for the baby.

Are you going to further try to suggest the Palin's are not good parents because this happened in their family?  If you are, maybe you should begin with your own familial condemnations first.

Pray for the baby, it's mother, and the grandparents of this family.  And pray for the thousands of other American families out there in the same boat.

Cheap Nazi Ripoffs Invade Upstate New York

in Daily New Bite/Hate Group/Racism by

Donald Trump’s presidency has emboldened some of the worst elements of modern society. You have probably heard this phrase thousands of times by now, but it’s worth repeating a thousand more times. After all, there are Nazis afoot and the only reason they march is because of our Grand Wizard-in-Chief.

And the latest incidence of this is in Upstate New York. Reportedly, Nazi posters have appeared around Cornell University and throughout the small college town of Ithaca on Monday. These posters tell people to “just say no to Jewish lies!” and encourage folks to “join the White Gang.” They also reference a “Solar Cross Society” and, of course, feature a Swastika.

Related: Neo-Nazis Super Mad Over This Discovery About Vikings

Racism? At Cornell University? A university that allows the fraternity system? My God, man, color me . . . whatever the opposite color of “shocked” happens to be on the emotional color wheel.

Now, this isn’t the first time posters like this have appeared, put up by anonymous cowards nor is this the first time that Cornell University has had problems with racism. At the beginning of the semester, members of a frat group chanted “build a wall” outside of a Latino Living Center and in September, a Cornell student was charged with attacking a black student and using racial slurs.

Staff and administrators are rightly describing the posters as “disgusting,” but this is where we’re at now: rampant, unchecked Antisemitism and racism. Whether it’s stupid privileged White guys holding tiki torches and chanting, “you won’t replace us!” like they’re worth replacing or anonymous Nazi propaganda popping up in college towns, this is where we are.

And we’re here because we never left. From “better dead than red” to “cultural Marxism,” it’s always been about Antisemitism and racism, no matter how veiled, hidden, or deeply embedded the dog whistle is.

Related: WATCH: Karma Catches Up With Neo-Nazi And Knocks Him The F*ck Out

There’s no reference to a “Solar Cross Society” online, and the people who put up the posters remain unknown. However, I am willing to bet they’re a bunch of middle-class and upper-middle-class white guys who are resentful because nobody will date them and are positively vitriolic because someone made Gone Home four years ago.

And that, more than anything, just goes to show how pathetic everything is. My grand-uncle fought in World War II, against real Nazis. You and me? We’re stuck with these f*cking clowns. And the sad thing? They’re no less dangerous.

Nigerians are unwittingly pushing towards another civil war – Gov. Aregbesola

The governor of Osun State, Rauf Aregbesola has revealed that Nigeria might not be lucky to come out if it falls into another round of civil war.

Aregbesola through his media aide, Sola Fasure in Osogbo on Monday, at the 2018 Armed Forces Remembrance Day celebration, warned that Nigerians perpetuating hate speeches, wickedness and massive killings in the country were unknowingly pushing the nation towards another civil war.

Aregbesola said: “Through carelessness, thoughtlessness, selfishness, wickedness and hate mongering, the country may unwittingly be pushing itself towards another war. War is a very bad business. It is costly, deadly and ruinous, even for a supposedly winner.

“It is worse for the loser. Indeed, all are losers in a war. The resources, human and material, used to prosecute wars could have been used for the development of the people. The lesson of history is that nations and people emerged from wars weakened, devastated, poor and vulnerable.

“The worst part is that though a nation’s decision to go to war or not may be easy before the outbreak of hostilities, it is more difficult and sometimes impossible to decide to stop a war; thus we have prolonged and sometimes an indeterminate war. This is the hard part.

“We see the devastations of war in Syria, Afghanistan, Iraq, Yemen, Lebanon (and closer home) in Liberia and Sierra Leone. While some like Liberia and Sierra Leone are fortunate to put the war behind them, Syria, Afghanistan, Yemen and Iraq have found it difficult to stop their own wars.”

The governor, however, urged Nigerian youths to apply their education in solving problems facing humanity.

Huh. New blogger format. One without automatic paragraph breaks.

You know they gave us the "ENTER" key for a reason, right?

Ahh, the march of progress.

I have switched from Brazilian Jiu Jitsu to Tai Chi--basically going from MMA (Mixed Martial Arts) to OMMA (Old Man Martial Arts)

In other news, I performed comedy at a burlesque show a couple weeks ago. Because when you get the opportunity to share a stage with topless women, musical acts, and an Asian Schoolboy selling candies off his erection you have to do it.

Oh, and Scott Steiner is coming to an RCW show. I believed I've linked to some of his spoken word work before. Here's one I hadn't seen before.

Life continues.
