Canzoni contro la guerra di The Fureys
MusicBrainz Discogs Irlanda
The Fureys are an Irish male folk band of four brothers - Eddie, Finbar, Paul and George, from Ballyfermot, Dublin, and of Irish Traveller heritage.[1] They have also been credited as The Fureys and Davey Arthur.
The group formed in 1978 and consisted initially of four brothers.[2]
Prior to the band two of the brothers toured as a duo known simply by their names as Eddie and Finbar Furey. Their brother Paul Furey had, together with Davey Arthur and Brendan Leeson, a band called The Buskers. Both were part of a successful tour through Germany called the "Irish Folk Festival", first in 1974, where they performed as The Furey Brothers and later as The Furey Family. Here they were joined by their father Ted, a famous fiddler, who was 73 at that time. Ted Furey had recorded a solo fiddle album Toss the Feathers released by the Outlet label in 1973.[3]
In 1981, The Fureys released their most successful single "When You Were Sweet Sixteen", becoming a worldwide hit, reaching #14 on the UK Singles Chart,[4] #1 on the Irish Singles Chart and #9 on the Australian Singles Chart.[5] "The Green Fields of France" also gave them an Irish #1, remaining in the single charts for twenty eight weeks. They also had two Top 40 British albums called Golden Days and At the End of the Day.[6]
Other notable songs include "Gallipoli", "The Red Rose Cafe", and "Steal Away". As of January 2008, the band is still recording and touring. In 2008 the band celebrated their 30th anniversary.
Finbar left the band to begin his own solo career and Eddie, George and Paul reformed with Davey Arthur to become a successful band. Paul Furey died suddenly in June 2002.[7]
All four of the brothers are married with children.

We have been serving the Woodstock, IL area since 1977 when the original owners Wayne and Clara Lutz bought ServiceMaster Barrington Lake Zurich. They later merged with ServiceMaster Cary, Crystal Lake and Algonquin in 1981, expanding their service area, which already included the Barrington area and all of Lake County. In 1999 Kevin Kallas, who is now the current owner, joined ServiceMaster Kwik Restore where he was promoted to General Manager in 2001. In 2007, Kevin purchased the business from Wayne and Clara, and further expanded the company by merging with additional ServiceMaster franchises, such as ServiceMaster by Ryberg, ServiceMaster of McHenry, and ServiceMaster of Elgin as their most recent expansion. Today, we provide services to the greater Chicago Suburbs, in Lake and Cook counties, along with the Kenosha and Racine counties in Southern Wisconsin.

While carpeting can see a lot of action in your home or business, it's not the only flooring type that needs proper cleaning and care. Hard surface floors like tile, hardwood, and linoleum floors can hold dirt in between the crevices of the floorboards and in the grout lines on tile floors. Sweeping and mopping can't completely remove dirt and grime from these crevices, making it difficult to clean the floor properly. ServiceMaster Kwik Restore provides hard floor cleaning services for homes and businesses in Woodstock, IL. Our technicians are trained with the most advanced equipment to give your hardwood floors the most intense clean without causing damage to your surfaces.
Your air ducts can accumulate dirt, dust, and dander that can't be seen and this buildup can affect the heating and cooling efficiency of your home as well as your health.

ServiceMaster Kwik Restore provides hoarding cleaning services in Woodstock, IL to cleanup and restore homes affected by hoarding and establish a healthy environment for healing and recovery.

Ghettos are Not a Game (Part One): Making Money off the Misery of Others
Published in the Black Commentator, www.blackcommentator.com, Issue 59, 10/9/03
Some things just aren't funny, and some ways of making money are pathetic. Both of these truisms apply to the entrepreneurial "humor" of David Chang, a 28-year old Pennsylvanian who apparently gets his kicks making fun of poor folks in urban America in order to make a quick buck.
Chang's business, as it were, is producing patently offensive board games, which deliberately traffic in racist and classist stereotypes. His first creation is "GHETTOPOLY," wherein players try and "buy stolen properties, pimp hoes, build crack houses and projects," and avoid getting carjacked. With more than a few references to Malt Liquor addiction, loan sharking, and other things that Chang apparently believes typify "ghetto culture," GHETTOPOLY promises hours of entertainment for people who, naturally, neither live in a ghetto nor have ever visited one, but who can now get off making fun of something they know nothing about.
Chang insists that his game, available online and in certain stores, is not meant to be degrading, but instead to "bring people together in laughter." But which people is he speaking of? Certainly not those who live in the places he has decided to objectify. He surely knows that his game isn't likely to sell too well in public housing projects after all, though by glancing at the "feedback" section on his website, it does seem to be a big hit with college kids. Nice: children of privilege having a laugh at the expense of those without; how utterly typical.
Chang claims, "If we can't laugh at ourselves and how we each utilize the various stereotypes, then we'll continue to live in blame and bitterness." But of course he isn't challenging the absurdity of those stereotypes, and he isn't laughing at himself. There is no anti-Asian humor here, after all. No plans for "Kung-FuOPOLY" or FORTUNECOOKIEOPOLY, not that that would be any funnier. He is laughing at others, thus not only GHETTOPOLY, which involves almost exclusively negative references to blacks, or what Chang perceives to be black urban culture, but also the upcoming offerings, HIPHOPOPOLY, THUGOPOLY, and REDNECKOPOLY.
That the last of these makes fun of whites — but only the poorest of course (since he wouldn't want to offend the suburban consumer demographic) — hardly redeems Chang's venture. It only indicates that bashing low-income people, of whatever race, is considered fair game. Whereas the original MONOPOLY venerates the wealthy and encourages us to be like them (to be sure a problematic quest for other reasons), Chang's rip-offs do not actually encourage players to identify with people who live in ghettos, or the hood, or trailer parks, or whatever.
Chang's bio notes that he graduated from one of the "most prestigious private high schools in the U.S." and received a degree from the University of Rochester, both of which naturally gave him a deep understanding of the subject matter in his games. Whatever details Chang may have failed to learn about the 'hood in prep school, he was able to glean from — and these are his words, I am not making this up — "watching TV and studying the lyrics of rap and hip-hop music." If that proved insufficient for the purposes of research, Chang had a fallback source of wisdom. As he puts it in a press release: "Video games provided him insight into the culture of the ghetto." It matters not, one supposes, that the images of the ghetto seen on video games were produced by people who don't live there. Oh, and not to put too fine a point on it, but there are also dragons and evil trolls in video games, so I guess David believes in those too.
Actually if one wants to understand "the ghetto" and the people who live there one has to spend time in such places. Even then, one's understanding will remain limited compared to those who actually live there every day, navigating the waters of the communities that David Chang and others think it is alright to parody. If one spends any amount of time at all in such places, one immediately notices that although there are things about poor urban communities that fit the stereotypical imagery, there are also lots of things about the places and the people who live in "ghettos," which didn't make it into this game, but which are also typical and not the least bit funny.
Like mothers trying to work two jobs to support their kids, without childcare, without adequate health care, having to choose between buying them clothes for school or paying a heating bill. Like kids who persevere against all odds, going to schools to learn and finding not enough textbooks, or buildings that are crumbling, and yet they still show up every day, hoping to fill their minds with knowledge. Like elderly women in public housing who look out for everyone's children, whether or not they are their own, because they see them as a treasure and vital resource in the community. Like ministers who run day care programs, and job training programs, and whose churches are involved in rehabilitating housing for low-income families. Like families that still pray, despite an environment that would make many of us wonder if there even was a God in heaven at all, let alone one who still cared about us.
Chang's biggest offense is in reinforcing the notion of the ghetto as a freestanding entity, with an inherent culture, separate from the rest of the society. But in truth, ghettos are the product of deliberate decisions made by political and economic elites. Whatever culture springs up in such places is not some intrinsic pathology unique to the urban poor, but largely the consequence of institutional racism and economic oppression. Chang's game allows us to continue ignoring the issue of how the ghetto became the ghetto in the first place. Answers are easy to find, though apparently Chang wasn't interested in discovering them, seeing as how doing so might have cut into his video game and MTV viewing schedule.
Fact is, during the first "great migration" of blacks from the south, zoning laws and overt violence tightly restricted where people of color were allowed to live. As a result of limitations on black residential mobility, families often had to double-up in small apartments, which were rarely taken care of by landlords who had little incentive to improve their properties, since they knew there was nowhere else for black tenants to turn.
Then in the 1930s, the government began offering low-interest, taxpayer-guaranteed loans through the Federal Housing Administration. Millions of families took part in the new program, and the American middle-class was born. Over a thirty-year period, over $100 billion in home equity was loaned through these initiatives, but it was almost exclusively a white middle-class created by these policies. FHA lending guidelines made it clear that loans were off-limits to persons who lived in "declining" neighborhoods (and every black neighborhood was rated as declining), and that, "If a neighborhood is to retain stability, it is necessary that properties shall continue to be occupied by the same social and racial classes." In other words, there would be few if any loans for blacks seeking to move to mostly white areas either. So blacks were restricted to the urban core at the very time that the "American dream" was being subsidized for white families.
As if this wasn't bad enough, local governments then began the process of "urban renewal," which meant the elimination of low-and-moderate-income family housing, to be replaced by office buildings, shopping centers and parking lots. While hundreds of thousands of homes (one-fifth of all housing occupied at the time by people of color) were destroyed as part of this process, less than 10 percent of those displaced, three-fourths of whom were black, had new single-resident housing to go to afterwards, as cities rarely built new units to replace the old ones. Instead, displaced families often had to rely on crowded apartments, living with relatives, or living in run-down public housing projects.
Since then, most efforts to reduce crowding in public housing by spreading subsidized residences throughout working and middle-class neighborhoods have been blocked by those who didn't persons from the "ghetto" living near them. So the ghetto has remained isolated, wracked by poverty and the problems that come with it, including higher crime rates, family dissolution, and now, apparently, the privilege of becoming the punch line in someone else's idea of a joke.
None of the above history will matter much to David, I'm sure, or others who think making fun of "crack whores" is high comedy. But it should matter to us. And so should David's phone number, which he gladly offers on his website. I think we should let him know what we think of his game, so by all means let's do so. Give him a ring at 866-444-3886, or drop him an email at davidchang@ghettopoly.com. And then let Hasbro know about Chang's games too. Since the layout, style and feel of GHETTOPOLY is more than a little similar to the original from which the OPOLY part of the name is taken, it shouldn't take a particularly brilliant patent and trademark lawyer to shut his fun down for good.

With the MaGIC Accelerator Programme Demo Days for Cohort 2 successfully coming to an end recently, Ehon Chan, the Executive Director of Social Entrepreneurship at MaGIC, is still hungry for more in Malaysia.
He shared on three things he and his team have highlighted as important for the continued development of social entrepreneurship in Malaysia.
MaGIC also introduced the accelerator programme not to just raise up more social entrepreneurs but to enable these entrepreneurs to be successful, so that they will in turn inspire others. The programme seems to be doing its part.
In response to how MaGIC's accelerator programme for the SE track has evolved from Cohort 1 to Cohort 2, Ehon said that there was no structural support for social entrepreneurship back then, so they did not have much data to help guide the design of the programme.
"We were a lot more chaotic last cohort, a lot of reacting to changes and reacting to their pace as well. So if they were struggling with something, we had to get our heads cracking as well," he shared. However from their struggle and experience, they gathered a lot of data that helped to shape and structure this recent cohort.
This improvement will also be reflected next year for Cohort 3 as MaGIC plans to place more emphasis on training the participants' soft skills.
Banks, investors and other players should play a more active part in helping to grow social enterprises by creating products, services and support systems for them. The programme found about 28 mentors to help along the way, and many of the startups credit both MaGIC and their mentors for helping them and giving them the boost they needed for their businesses to take off.
Also, they have been very active in trying to recruit more private investors, particularly those who have never invest in social enterprises before.
He compared Malaysia to other Asian countries such as South Korea and Thailand, who have existing social enterprise policies in place or are in the process of setting it up. He said, "In Thailand they have a very cool model. They tax people on alcohol and cigarettes and that tax goes into a foundation which then funds the social enterprise office." He went on to say that hopefully, Malaysia would set up a legislation for social enterprises by the end of the year.
Before policies can change, Ehon also spoke about how it was important to break mindsets and cultural assumptions about social enterprises. According to him, Malaysians have a very set idea about what is a proper career, starting from getting a degree and then going into having a job.
Quitting your job to start a social enterprise is still seen as very risky, and that is a cultural attitude that the social entrepreneurs must struggle against.
Ehon also spoke about how our local economy can greatly benefit from the growth of social enterprises. The people who are being helped can instead be taught skills to contribute back to the economy.
For example, The Picha Project enables refugees to earn an income by cooking meals, and there are communities that can further benefit just by being taught skills or given the platform to showcase their skills, such as struggling single mothers. Instead of being purely dependents, they can work and then become contributors to economic growth.


Review written by the Wanderer: "Yearning" is the debut album of this french project, this time supported by Wiedergänger on drums, which leads to perfection of the sound. A further development to the first eisenwald installment "Ferd" is to be heard clearly, but Aurvandil remained true to himself. Compositions and sound breathe the spirit of the early 90's, primarily mid-tempo played Black Metal, with fast outbreaks and in contrast slow appearing parts as well as calm acustic passages with folk-influences. The rarely used vocals let the music speak for itself and keep the overall epic and dismal atmosphere.
Packaging: Jewelcase, 12 page booklet on uncoated/rough paper stock with matt silver prints.

#1,560. The Fortune Cookie (1966)
Directed By: Billy Wilder
Starring: Jack Lemmon, Walter Matthau, Ron Rich
Tag line: "Some people will do anything for $249,000.92"
Trivia: Several scenes were filmed at the Minnesota Vikings vs. Cleveland Browns game, held at Cleveland Municipal Stadium on the afternoon of Halloween 1965
Director Billy Wilder, who was responsible for some of the best motion pictures ever made, worked in a number of different genres throughout his career. After practically inventing film-noir with Double Indemnity, Wilder would go on to direct hard-hitting dramas (The Lost Weekend), lighthearted romances (Sabrina), a brilliant courtroom thriller (Witness for the Prosecution), a biopic (The Spirit of St. Louis), and a funny wartime flick that was also an intriguing mystery (Stalag 17). In addition, he helmed a number of great comedies, including The Seven-Year Itch, Some Like it Hot, and One Two Three. Of them all, though, the funniest is 1966's The Fortune Cookie, a movie that features the first onscreen pairing of Jack Lemmon and Walter Matthau, who, after this film, would appear together nine more times (The Odd Couple being my personal favorite).
Harry Hinkle (Lemmon), an on-field cameraman for CBS Sports, ends up in the hospital when star football player Luther 'Boom Boom' Jackson (Ron Rich) accidentally bowls him over during a game. This near-calamity sparks the imagination of Harry's brother-in-law, Willie Gingrich (Matthau), a lawyer who specializes in frivolous lawsuits. Sensing a huge cash settlement, Willie tries to convince Harry (who's not really hurt) to fake a lower back injury. At first reluctant to go along with this scheme, Harry changes his tune when Willie convinces him that a huge payday might help him win back his ex-wife Sandy (Judi West), who Harry never stopped loving. But to pull this scam off, the two are going to have to outwit Purkey (Cliff Osmond), an investigator with the insurance company who's convinced Harry is faking his injuries.
Along with its clever script (co-written by Wilder and I.A.L Diamond), The Fortune Cookie owes its success to the fine performances of its two stars. Lemmon's Harry is something of a sad sack (a lonely guy who longs to reunite with his conniving ex), yet he's also basically a good guy, and has second thoughts about faking his injury when he sees how guilty Boom Boom Jackson feels for having caused him so much pain. Lemmon has his share of funny moments (the scene where the insurance company is subjecting him to a round of tests is particularly good), but its Matthau's fast-talking Willie who steals the show. The first time we meet him, Willie is in his office talking with Mr. Cimoli (Howard McNear), a prospective client. It seems poor Mr. Cimoli hurt himself when he slipped on a banana peel while walking out of a small neighborhood delicatessen. "Too bad it didn't happen further down the street in front of the May Company. From them you can collect", Willie tells a surprised Mr. Cimoli, adding "Couldn't you have dragged yourself another twenty feet?" Willie is a cad throughout the entirety of The Fortune Cookie, and Matthau's performance is so good that it won him an Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor.
While his career after The Fortune Cookie was hit-and-miss (1974's The Front Page and 1981's Buddy Buddy, both of which also featured Matthau and Lemmon, were absolute duds), Wilder's overall body of work is damned impressive, and its movies like The Fortune Cookie that have cemented his place in Hollywood history.
Tommy Ross said...
Good pick and great flick, not mentioned often enough and for you trivia fans, it was on the set of this movie that Lemmon & Matthau first met and became good friends for life.

My Musical Magical Storytime
'Storytime with Anna-Christina' taking London Libraries by storm!
I have taken part in many community events such as Family Fundraisers and the Baby & Children's Market UK several times but one of the most fun things I do, is Storytime at London Libraries!
I often dedicate my time during holidays to organize sessions for children and families at various libraries. It's so lovely to do Storytime with parents involved as I also love to see how they react to my audiobooks! I'm pleased to see they are as popular with parents as they are with children, and this makes me feel very happy indeed! 😊
I like doing three library dates back to back in the same area, as this makes it a lot easier to organize and promote. Plus if families miss one date, they have the option to catch me on another day!
Demand for my Storytime is growing which makes me feel extremely proud. I'm not able to do library visits every week or even every month. However, I am trying my best to do more visits throughout the holidays and branch out to cover more areas in London. This month I visited three libraries in the Westminster area for the first time and it was brilliant!
My first Storytime was at the Barbican Children's Library. The library is inside The Barbican Centre which is a performing arts centre in the Barbican Estate of the City of London and the largest of its kind in Europe. This made me feel like I was taking a massive step up in the storytelling world!
I turned up at the library early and already, it was buzzing! Everyone at the library was so lovely, friendly and helpful and Storytime was absolutely brilliant!
My second Storytime was at Victoria Children's Library. They had kindly put up my poster around the library and on their front desk which was great for promoting the event. In fact, I was amazed to find out, that all the flyers I had distributed at the libraries a month before my sessions, had gone!
This is great, because it means, word is spreading and people are picking up flyers and then visiting our website. I noticed we have had more subscribers this month which is awesome! Plus parents have begun to sign up for my Storytime on Eventbrite so I feel like it's all happening! 🎉
My final visit for the week was at Shoe Lane Library on Thursday 16th August. That morning, it was raining very heavy and I was slightly concerned about attendance! Sometimes rainy days can draw more people into libraries but it can also put people off, so it's difficult to know how many families will turn up!
I was early and spent some time chatting to the staff. Again, they were very kind and helpful and I enjoyed hearing about their Reading Challenge and library life.
Slowly but surely, families began to arrive, in spite of the horrible weather! In the end, there was such a lovely group of children and parents who enjoyed all of my circus related activities.
Some of the children wanted to take their drawings home but I did manage to collect a few drawings of 'Big Tops' which you can see in the Kids Corner.
I loved every moment of my Summer Holiday Library Events and I would like to thank all of the libraries I have visited for having me. I love children's libraries, they are so colourful and fun. I feel such a sense of joy visiting them with my Storytime. It really is a privilege!
I am on such an amazing adventure and 'Storytime with Anna-Christina' keeps on growing and expanding. I can't wait to see where it takes me next!
Follow me on Twitter @StorytimewithAC
Summer Holiday Story Times
I'm thrilled to announce my Summer Holiday Library Events during August at three new libraries! I'm heading into the Westminster area for the first time with my special 45-minute musical Storytime!
My unique Storytime is a mix of listening, drawing, and drama. It covers a number of skills e.g: social interaction, developing self-confidence, and encourages children to use their own imagination. They are fun, engaging, interactive, creative and educational. My session compliments Key Stage 1 and areas of the Early Years Foundation Stage and has been a success at schools and nurseries all over London.
Your child will:
Learn about the circus and be encouraged to use their listening abilities and imagination.
Make drawings which will be published in a gallery on my website making them part of my creative world.
Take part in my energetic circus story, singing and dancing along.

The announcement by Ian Paisley, the so-called First Minister of the Six-Counties, that he is to depart from politics in May is to be greeted with cheers by all true Irishmen and women.
Unlike other publications and those who lead Sinn F�in, The Hibernian will not be singing the praises of this scallywag.
Regarded by many Irish Catholics as a loud-mouthed windbag, Paisley built his career in both politics and �religion� through attacking and demeaning the Catholic Faith and the concept of independent Irish Nationhood.
What Catholic could forget his antics at an Oxford debate when he held up a host and, to the guffaws and hoots of the English heretics present, made a blasphemous mockery of the fact that Catholics believe that a Consecrated Host is comprised of the �bones and blood and flesh etc.� of Jesus.
Many people regard Paisley as having been almost single-handedly responsible for sparking the bloodshed and misery that convulsed the North and many other places for three decades. They argue that had Terence O�Neill, the plummy Stormont unionist �prime minister� of the 1960s, been allowed to quietly introduce reforms that would have given Civil Rights to Catholics that there would never have been any Troubles. The IRA of the day was a spent force and few Nationalists had much stomach for anything beyond peaceful protest.
At a crucial time Paisley thundered onto the scene roaring and bawling hate-filled anti-Catholic rhetoric and crushing O�Neill�s fairly timid advances with poisonous invective. In the process, he whipped-up and inflamed sectarian passions among the protestant lower orders, which eventually resulted in a violent fury being turned on innocent Catholics. Acting in defence of besieged Nationalist enclaves, a reinvigorated IRA emerged from near obscurity. The rest is recent history.
It should not be forgotten that at various times during the Troubles when a settlement could have been reached, Paisley turned-up to scupper all progress. Throughout, he never lost his flare for anti-Catholic hatred and was even flung out of the European Parliament for screaming �anti-Christ� at the late Pope John Paul II during the latter�s visit there.
Had Paisley�s antics been based on sincere motivation there might have been some twisted understanding of his behaviour. As it has transpired, however, all his vicious, dangerous buffoonery was driven by plain old self-serving greed and ambition. Paisley�s only goal was to make himself top dog, both of his free presbyterian �church� sect and the post Good Friday Assembly at Stormont. Now, just as the dupes who served and followed him have begun to cop-on to his game, he has elected to cut and run. What charlatan would not be proud of a game like that?
Ironically, Paisley could never have become First Minister without the active support of the Sinn F�in leadership, which secured him in power last year. For months now, all self-respecting Republicans have squirmed at the images of a tittering Martin McGuinness scurrying after Paisley while being treated like a whipped pup; more Deputy Dog than Deputy First Minister.
Meanwhile, Sinn F�in�s never-ending president, Gerard Adams, has emerged from hibernation to praise Paisley and beg him to stay on.
Let it not be forgotten that this crowd put a man with a track record of anti-Catholic, anti-Irish Unity bigotry into power rather than opt for the alternative of Joint Authority, which would have seen for the first time the Irish government having a direct say in running the North. And they call themselves Irish Republicans?

With the Dubai International Boat Show 2017 expected to be bigger than ever, we gain an insight first-hand from the exhibitors who's testimonials highlight DIBS as an eagerly anticipated event on the annual yachting calendar.
From an exhibitor's perspective, then, the show goes above and beyond to present a meticullously organised event, but what does it mean to the area, and all those involved?
Some of the largest yachts in the world are those owned by Middle Eastern owners, and we're looking forward to delivering the news as it emerges from one of the most renowned luxury hubs of the world.


A month or so ago I was driving home from work and saw a buffet on the side of the road. It looked sad. Unfortunately there was no way it would fit in my Honda. So I had to wait until Mike got home and then did some sweet talking.Fast forward to midnight, in the rain, (possibly in pajamas) with a flashlight, on the side of the road.
We managed to get it in the back for his truck and then home.
She was pretty rough looking. The rain had done it's best to damage the buffet. The veneer was bubbly, large pieces were peeling off. There were no knobs on the drawers. The trim on the back was barely attached. She was missing a wheel and the drawers didn't close.
I peeled off the loose pieces of veneer. The rest was removed with a vinegar/water solution and a putty knife. Some tricky spots were finessed with an iron with the steam turned all the way up.
It took patience and some elbow grease but it was done in one afternoon. The sides were the hardest, my iron only steams when it's horizontally flat so it was up to the vinegar. I soaked a piece of fleece and smoothed it against the stubborn pieces of veneer to hold the liquid to the wood.
I scraped the adhesive off as I went.
I wiped them out with straight vinegar and it hasn't come back.
I painted her in Valspar Beeswax. It took a few coats to get good coverage. After the yellow dried I added some detail with brown acrylic and some Valspar glaze. It was my first time using the glaze, I put the brown where I wanted it with a brush and then dipped a cloth in the glaze and rubbed it over the paint until it looked the way I wanted it to.
I replaced the knobs with these from Lowes. They weren't my first choice but they were cheap and I liked the size.
Her drawers still don't close and she's still missing a wheel but I'm ok with it. Total cost was about $15 for knobs and paint. I'm intentionally leaving out her surroundings, I'm part way through a total living room makeover!
WOW! What a great make-over! I hardly ever run into good pieces like this to re-do! I will pin this. I am a fellow Bloggers Unite pal! I am your newest follower!
I have been looking for a buffet like this for the longest time. You did an awesome job with a rough piece. Now if only I can drive past one on the side of the road lol.
Amazing makeover! I have been known to sneak out in pajamas in the rain after curb finds but I've never found something so spectacular!
Hooray for you. That is beautiful. Love the chicken and the golden yellow. Perfect. PS I am you newest follower.
This must be one of my favourite furniture makeover posts ever.
Many people just take a perfect piece, paint it and make it perfect in a different colour.
But your baby there was so battered and bruised that even I would have thought about just leaving her to rot by the road. What a labour of love!
She's such a beauty now, every squirt of vinegar and swipe with the brush really paid off. Love the colour you picked, too- a brave choice, I don't think I could pull off yellow furniture and get away with it. And a welcome change after loads of teal and white all over blogland!
Beautiful! I've missed quite a bit, with my head stuck in my office for weeks, but I'm so glad I stopped by. That was quite the reno – don't you love the power of vinegar? Great job! I love the yellow, and I promise I'll stay tuned for the living room reveal!
This looks great. Way to go on seeing what could be in something that was damaged!
Love the shape of your buffet and it looks so incredible after all your work.
I'll bet the original owners would love it back if they saw the amazing transformation !
What an amzing save and beautiful transformation!
My husband knows exactly what it's like to peel off that darn veneer! Turned out great, the elbow grease was worth it.
Wonderful piece of work – love everything about it – the color, the turned legs and LOVE that rooster painted on the end!
Absolutely gorgeous! Looks like it belongs in a magazine, thanks for sharing!
Great job on such a beautiful piece! Must feel really good to have done so much work and reaped such a great reward!
I LOVE that yellow! WHat a great job, really beautiful.
Oh, and I hear you about the golden retriever hair, it's never ending!!!
Hi Alecia I 'm visiting from Nifty Thrifty Sunday and I love your buffet. You did a wonderful job. I would love for you to share at Totally Trandformed my linky party. http://pjhdesignsoneofakind.blogspot.com Hope to see you there.
That looks awesome!! Fantastic job on the make-over, and what an amazing find!
Saw you linking at Serenity Now. Love the look of your blog, I'm now following!
Love, love. love the yellow!
Alecia…a GREAT rescue ! I would have brought that baby home, too ! There is no way that my husband would help me bring home something like that. Heck, he won't even help me when it's an antique-store-worthy piece ! May have something to do with all the pieces I have already. Could you give me more information about how to make and use the vinegar and steam to get off the veneer ? I've got a piece I need to do this to. Many thanks !! Glad that I saw you on Roadkill Rescue. I'm subscribing !
Great job, I know what it is like taking veneer off! Love the color and of course the Rooster add on!
What a beautiful piece:) I have an old wardrobe that has veneer that so needs to be removed but had no idea how hard it would be or how to do it. Thank you for sharing this wonderful buffet at Freedom Fridays.
I am visiting from Serenity Now. What a great find! I can't believe it was just tossed out. It looks great now!! I need a yellow buffett just like that for our dining room.
Your did a gorgeous job on this wonderful find! Thanks for sharing at Potpourri Friday!
I couldn't believe this post when I saw it. I just rescued a buffet just like this with a matching hutch. I thought of just giving up re-doing it until I saw your post and how beautiful yours came out. Absolutely wonderful job. Love the color.
I love this buffet, ESP. In this yellow color! I had this exact buffet, my EX got it in the divorce :(. Seeing your projects has inspired me! Keep up the great work!
After reading through the comments, I feel a lot better knowing that I'm not the only late night curbside creeper! Love the buffet!

Outgames part of Antwerp kiss-in to protest anti-gay laws in Russia
By Jim Buzinski Aug 5, 2013, 8:53pm PDT
Share All sharing options for: Outgames part of Antwerp kiss-in to protest anti-gay laws in Russia
With the third world Outgames underway in Antwerp, Belgium, the city will be the site of a kiss-in on Friday at 6 p.m. to protest the passing of anti-gay laws in Russia. The Winter Olympics will be held in Sochi, Russia, in February.
The announcement of what is being called "To Russia With Love, to be staged in front of the Russian consulate:
The laws that recently have been passed in Russia against the promotion of gay lifestyle condone the bullying of and violence towards LGBTQ people in an unprecedented way. This has to stop! People are being imprisoned for being who they are and for standing up for their friends and family.
We need to put our feet onto the pavement and stand by our resolve to do something towards ending this ludicrous situation.
There could not be a better time to act: Antwerp is hosting the 3rd edition of the World Outgames. With thousands of international LGBTQ sports(wo)men and their supporters visiting the Outgames host city this is our chance to show our friends in Russia that we care, and to show the Russian Government what we think about their policies. We will not discriminate, we will not bully, nor will we fight; we will KISS. Love will conquer all!
For this to be effective we need a lot of people and a whole lot of saliva, so please forward this message to everyone you know who has a heart and post comments on the notice board, so that we can gather an impressive, loving crowd in front of the Russian consulate. Thank you!

From the first cyber crisis meeting in the White House a decade ago to the boardrooms of Silicon Valley and the electrical tunnels under Manhattan, Clarke and coauthor Robert K. Knake trace the rise of the cyber age and profile the unlikely characters and places at the epicenter of the battlefield. They recount the foreign cyber spies who hacked into the office of the Secretary of Defense, the control systems for U.S. electric power grids, and the plans to protect America's latest fighter aircraft. Economically and militarily, Clarke and Knake argue, what we've already lost in the new millennium's cyber battles is tantamount to the Soviet and Chinese theft of our nuclear bomb secrets in the 1940s and 1950s. ==Additional Notes and Highlights== Expertise Required: None * Chapter Excerpts: **1.

[http://www.richardaclarke.net/cyber_war.php?ch=8#excerpts The Agenda] [http://www.wired.com/threatlevel/2010/04/cyberwar-richard-clarke/ Review] from ''Wired.com:'' *"So much of Clarke's evidence is either easily debunked with a Google search, or so defies common sense, that you'd think reviewers of the book would dismiss it outright. Instead, they seem content to quote the book liberally and accept his premise that cyberwar could flatten the United States, and no one in power cares at all. Of course, the debunking would be easier if the book had footnotes or endnotes, but neither are included — Revelation doesn't need sources." *"The cyberwar rhetoric is dangerous. Its practitioners are artists of exaggeration, who seem to think spinning tall tales is the only way to make bureaucracies move in the right direction. But yelling "Cyberwar" in a crowded internet is not without consequence. Not only does it promote unnecessary fear, it feeds the forces of parochial nationalism and militarism — undermining a communications system that has arguably done more to connect the world's citizens than the last 50 years of diplomacy." [http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2010/05/21/AR2010052101860.html/ Review] from ''WashingtonPost.com:'' *"Cyber-war, cyber-this, cyber-that: What is it about the word that makes the eyes roll? Adults of a certain age, myself included, have a hard time getting worked up over something that seems more akin to pushing buttons frantically in "Grand Theft Auto" than waging a real war, in which very loud weapons shred bodies and devastate cities, possibly with a nuclear accent. How authentic can a war be when things don't blow up? Carried out in dark rooms by computer geeks armed with joysticks and keyboards, this click-click contest seems merely virtual, not really fatal." *"Maybe that's why experts such as Richard A. Clarke, the former White House terrorism adviser who famously failed to excite George W. Bush's aides about al-Qaeda in the summer of 2001, have had such a hard time convincing top policymakers that cyber-war is "the next threat to national security," as the subtitle of Clarke's new book puts it. By his account, Clarke was about as successful at getting the Bush administration to take cyber-war seriously as he was at warning them of al-Qaeda. But a cyber-9/11 could be the next big thing, he cautions, conjuring visions of frozen Pentagon computers, blinded telecom satellites, dead power plants, subways grinding to a halt, exploding petrochemical installations -- all the stuff that adds up to another mind-numbing cyber-phrase: critical infrastructure."

The federal opposition wants changes to the My Health Record system to better ensure privacy of the data.
Labor will push for further changes to the federal government's controversial online medical records system, in hopes of guaranteeing private health insurers can never get their hands on its data.
Opposition health spokeswoman Catherine King says Labor will also seek changes to the My Health Record system to better protect the privacy of employees and women fleeing domestic violence.
The push will come in the form of proposed amendments to laws already proposed by the federal government to boost privacy, by ensuring police and government agencies will need a court order to obtain patient data.

Europe's electricity system
Integrating markets
European Cooperations
The national grids are linked by cross-border lines called "interconnectors" to form an interconnected European network. These "power bridges" make not only the national grids more secure, but also electricity in Europe cheaper overall. If, for instance, a power plant in Germany has to be disconnected from the grid unscheduled, another in the neighbouring [A1] region can supply the necessary power via an interconnector. What's more, the internationally available power can be transported right across Europe via the cross-border connections and be put to the best possible use as a result. Amprion's grid is already connected to the transmission systems in the Netherlands, Luxembourg, France, Switzerland and Austria. Eight more interconnector projects are planned.
Grid expansion for Europe's "energy transition"
A more efficient and flexible European transmission network is needed to achieve the climate targets by the European Commission. To this end, the transmission system operators are planning and building additional power connections between the nations. In order to define the expansion requirements for the next ten years as accurately as possible, every two years, as part of their cooperation within the European Network of Transmission System Operators for Electricity (ENTSO-E), all European TSOs draw up a new Ten-Year Network Development Plan (TYNDP). This is based on forecasts of how power generation and consumption will develop in Europe. In addition to the grid expansion requirements, the TYNDP also presents innovative technical solutions and special technical issues concerning the further development of Europe's transmission grid in separate reports.
Amprion is represented in the TYNDP with eight interconnector projects: these include the German-Belgian power bridge named ALEGrO and a possible second expansion of capacity on this border. The Niederrhein/Wesel – Doetinchem line, which is scheduled to come on stream at the end of 2018, is also one of them. In addition, the Vigy – Uchtelfangen connection to France and the Tiengen – Beznau line to Switzerland are to be upgraded as well as the Vöhringen – Westtirol line and the Lake Constance lines to Austria. Other projects within Germany, such as Ultranet and A North, which are of particular importance for the European energy grid, are also part of these plans.
PCIs – Projects of common interest
Together with the member states, the regulatory authorities and transmission system operators, the EU Commission identifies grid expansion projects of particular interest to Europe – what are called "projects of common interest" (PCIs). The precept is that the projects have a positive economic, social and environmental impact on at least two member states. One of the goals of PCIs is to help upgrade the electricity and gas networks so that they are capable of absorbing and transmitting the increasing volumes of energy generated by renewable sources. The projects are also intended to support sustainability and system security. At the same time, certain planning and approval procedures apply, which are controlled by the relevant national authority.
The third EU-wide PCI list was published by the EU Commission in November 2017. It contains 173 projects, including ten grid expansion projects in Germany. These include the DC links ALEGrO and Ultranet planned by Amprion and a second link to Belgium. The list is updated every two years. The legal framework is provided by EU Regulations No. 347/2013 on the development of a trans-European energy infrastructure.

BE = section Lixhe - German-Belgian border

e-Highway2050: The future of Europe's energy supply
A European research consortium, supported by the European Commission, has launched a project entitled "e-Highway2050". The aim was to develop a long-term planning methodology for the expansion and restructuring of Europe's transmission grids. The target date set by the project partners is 2050: by then, AC and DC power lines will hopefully be interwoven to form a high-capacity pan-European grid capable of absorbing large volumes of electricity from renewables and transmitting them over long distances.
Amprion joined other European TSOs in the necessary research work, which produced some important findings: all five project scenarios examined confirmed that the grid expansion projects in Germany are both expedient and necessary. What's more, looking ahead to 2050 revealed that an integrated European grid, in which today's AC links are upgraded and consolidated by individual HVDC links, is fit for the challenges of the future. Another positive: the project developed planning methodologies for long-term network development that were made available to all ENTSO-E members and some of which have already been utilised in the TYNDP.
About Amprion
With a length of around 11.000 kilometres and some 170 substations between Lower Saxony and the border to Switzerland and Austria, our extra-high voltage transmission system is the largest in Germany. A population of over 29 million is supplied through our grid.

Building strong relationships with alumni to increase mentoring and employment opportunities is a must, as is liaising with Vocational Rehabilitation Services and other community providers as needed to support students.


A 'knowing' and gratitude for loving links….
Back in New Brighton I am caring for the lovely Bella and on the beach at sunrise this morning there was a display by nature that rooted us to the spot. It was blustery and the sun rose behind dark, rain filled clouds which parted to let the light out. It shone across the watery beach and danced across the clouds in the sky opposite as a rainbow appeared underneath the image of the moon saying goodbye for the day. My heart took a picture and 'spoke' to my Mum and my heart buddies. I messaged them all when I got home and one of them, hundreds of miles away, was writing to me at the same time sending a picture of her sunrise.
I am loving the gift of this time with Bella.
We are having such fun together exploring the beach every morning and the hilltop streets in the afternoons. It's only on foot that you see the detail of our surroundings and have the time to pause and drink it all in. Bella's joy at chasing her ball and playing tag with all her lovely furry friends down by the water is a daily delight. I am blessed to meet and stroke so many lovely dogs and chat to their Mums and Dads. Bella and I have fallen into a natural rhythm for our days together and we chat away to each other. She nestles by my feet as I write and by my side as I knit and create. One of our favourite things is to sit in her Mum's study right up at the top of the house and watch the ships and boats out at sea. As she rests on my lap, her little head leans slowly over and it took me a while to realise that she is following the vessels are they sail in and out. There is a tranquillity as we watch the wind in the trees, the birds wheeling and the sea between the chimney tops.
From our favourite spot this morning we listened to a radio podcast of my lovely friends Chris Moran and Glenda Kerney Brown on a show last night. Both lassies write beautiful poetry and deal daily with the rigours of MS. It is a gift to hear them reading their words and feel the love that links across our life webs. Their poetry is a gift that reaches out to those who struggle to express how they feel. It is loving and brave in equal measure to share creativity in this way. Bella's Mum is an author and has recently trained as a poetry therapist. She reaches out to help those in need and here Bella and I sit in her special space, listening to loving creativity, watching nature as she shares her special display.
It has been three weeks since I moved my 'berth' and here I sit in the home I share with Lynn, at a beautiful desk she has diddled up and kindly gifted for my use. I have placed it in my bedroom window, looking out at the fisherman's cottages opposite and the green where the old ballroom and tower used to be.
Lynn and I agree that there is a special light in this house and that is one of the reasons she bought it. It pours into my bedroom and little sitting room on the first floor and as the day flows it fills the kitchen and then the bathroom at sunset. My working days are filled with light and then it's in the kitchen as I prepare my evening meal and then the bathroom as I lie in the bath watching the sunset sparkle off the muslin curtains.
I sit working watching dogs, people and children playing on the green and in the playground. There is an ageing German Shepherd and he and his Dad always pause in their gentle amble and sit on the fence watching the others play. A streak of a Border Collie has his ball on a rope and flies up the slope spinning it in his mouth and there is joy in every hair on his body. Friends and neighbours pause and have a catch-up natter and I can hear their voices and laughter through my open window. The trees on the crest of the green draw a line between the grass and sky and my days are filled with birdsong, as the clouds flow through.
The Mersey joins the Irish Sea at the bottom of our road and the view never ceases to delight as I walk out and there is the Belfast to Birkenhead, Liverpool to Dublin or Isle of Man ferries, container ships and huge vessels heading for Manchester down the Manchester Ship Canal all gliding past. When the tide is out the beach has life on it with toddlers building sandcastles, dogs leaping across the sand, people walking in the fresh air and tug boats and pleasure boats on the water.
Our home has visitors from all over the world popping in now and then and Lynn and I share visiting friends and food, and yet we have our own space to simply be. There are Lynn's lovely decorative touches in all the rooms, my beloved pieces around me and a loving peace that makes this a sanctuary.
My work is settled and flowing, because I am settled and flowing. Creating new vegan foodie dishes (with varying degrees of success) and starting to make handmade creative items again. Writing is naturally springing forth and I have a new magazine article to complete and several pieces to do for the writing groups.
The roots that started to go down as soon as I arrived in this special part of The Wirral in January are flexing and getting stronger. My days have a simplicity and sparkle that is healing and I am so grateful. A dear friend messaged and asked how I was this week and enquired as to my latest project. 'Nothing' was my reply, 'I am simply being and loving it'.
Tim West, a wonderful actor, and his wife Pru who is also a naturally gifted actress, have filmed a series of canal journeys. Their programs are a joy to watch. This weekend Tim stood on the stage of a very old theatre in Sweden and recited this piece from Shakespeare's Tempest. It caught my heart, and along with recent events, sparked this post.
Things have unfolded in our shared house as a pattern is playing and several of us are battling with lack of sleep. All reasonable requests are being ignored and it is time for me to sail my 'boat' into a new berth. I can often be found suggesting to clients that no-one ever does anything to us. People make choices on how they behave and we then have choice of how we behave. It cuts right through the need for 'hero' and 'victim' labelling and personal 'boxing'. I don't mean physical boxing here, although several times recently the desire to turn a certain person's hidden attributes into a handbag has been very tempting! Anyhow, I digress and this lack of labelling means we can avoid imprisoning ourselves into situations and feeling trapped. It helps life to flow.
My decision to find a new berth took me to a meeting this morning with a kindred soul. I sat in a front room while my soon to be landlady made us coffee and I soaked up the atmosphere of her home. I was surrounded by loved pieces of furniture, art and china that have been collected and as I looked around I smiled. There are artistic and sparkly touches everywhere. We chatted about all sorts and when we bobbed upstairs to look at my room, and the little sitting room, kitchen and bathroom that I will share with another lodger, I kept saying 'Ohhhh' and 'Ohhhh' again.
I can write and thrive there. It's divine timing at work and blessings are flowing, as always.
My new found friend and I parted with promises that I would move in there in a few weeks time. I walked down the road to the sea and The Mersey and there was the pirate ship pictured here. There were ribbons and notes from children left there from Easter weekend fluttering in the wind. I looked across to Liverpool and pictured myself on the ferry travelling to the next writers group meeting and I smiled.
I turned the corner and visited my friend in her café, The Driftwood. Hugs and a catch-up natter followed, as we looked at the latest local art to cover her walls. I sat in the window watching the sea eating a yummy bowl of her homemade soup and rested a while.
You see, this is a change yes, but it's not an uprooting. My heart and soul are here and I am simply changing berth in the same harbour. I walked back up through the shops where I am known. I blew a kiss to the lovely souls in the chemist, I waved to my buddy in the card shop and I popped in for a natter with the lovely man who runs the fish and chip shop. I don't eat meat, fish or dairy anymore. I am totally vegan now and there was one night recently when I was exhausted and needed food. I bobbed out to the shops and failed to find anything. This was not one of my best planning days. Anyway, I bobbed into Nashad's and he made me a yummy stir fry of vegetables and I will never forget his kindness. We always have a wonderful chat about his farm back in Turkey and life in general.
Love flows with all these loving links and this is the place to bring my dream of writing a book into reality. The bonds that have been made with 'the girls', as we call ourselves in our current home, will still flow and we will continue to love each other and spend time together.
On course and sailing straight….with love, always with love.
Seeing silvery softness instead of grey, where love is always light….
In the run-up to this weekend there was a soft feel to everything. A hush, where even the ferry to Dublin left port quietly. A couple walking their dog commented that the day was grey and I looked out to sea and that is not what I saw. In the peace the sea lapped softly, the birds standing quietly at her edge, with the sunlight filtering through the clouds catching sparkles in the reflection on the water.
It's all too easy to get busy and caught up in 'daily stuff' and I wonder how often we stop to see the sparkle in the ordinary. To pay attention without labelling. The labels we give everything lead us to think things are a certain way, which prompts feelings, which leads to words and follows through to actions. All from a label?
Every day on the service a familiar refrain is 'When will I find love?', 'Where is my soulmate?' 'Is he/she the one?'. When did life get so labelled that we lost ourselves like this?
I feel we are still there in the hush. Our inner peace and contentment is there, hidden in that space that we fill with activity, noise, judgement and labels.
It makes you ponder on what we could find in our own space. When we pay attention without labelling. Observing without judgment.
What loving wonders await us in the hush.
Spoken words are an energy and goodness there are an awful lot of 'down' energies rolling around right now.
I was on the receiving end of such a delivery yesterday and I chose to keep my counsel.
Debate by all means but it's the 'how' you debate and the words you use.
One thing that we can control is how we think about things and the words we use in our heads and when we speak.
It is like a sea; the tone and words you send out there are the ones that will come back to you when the tide turns.


A new online tool will give farmers an opportunity to report possible hazards with farm equipment.
The Canadian Agricultural Safety Association (CASA) has developed a new online tool that gives farmers an opportunity to express their concerns about possible hazards with farm equipment.
The "Speak Up For Safer Equipment" tool is intended to provide a way for farmers, manufacturers and standards organizations to talk about safety concerns with agricultural equipment manufactured within the past five years.
"We decided to develop this online tool after routinely receiving calls from producers who were frustrated that their concerns weren't being heard," says Glen Blahey, Agricultural Health and Safety Specialist for CASA.
The online form handles safety concerns where farm equipment is being used for primary agricultural production. It is not intended to handle cases where legal proceedings are taking place, where there are labour relations concerns or issues related to financial transactions.
The "Speak Up for Safer Equipment" online tool will be available in August on CASA's website at http://casa-acsa.ca/speak-up-for-safer-equipment. Concerns can also be reported by phone at (877) 452-2272.

These are the steps to take to achieve it.


By May 2011, Northern California's Butte College will produce enough solar energy to meet its energy needs, making it the first grid-positive college in the U.S.
Butte College, a community college located in Northern California and resting on a 928-acre wildlife refuge, has been recognized over the last few years as a national community college leader in sustainability. It operates as a self-contained city with its own water system, sewage treatment facility and the largest community college transportation system in California. The college began implementing the first of three solar energy projects in 2005, and by May 2011, the college will become the only college in the nation that is grid positive—producing more clean energy from sustainable on-site solar power than it uses.
The college's Board of Trustees recently approved Phase III of the solar project. Approximately 15,000 solar photovoltaic panels will be added to the college's current 10,000 solar panels, making it the largest solar-producing college in the world. Over the course of a year, the college will generate enough electricity to power the equivalent of more than 9,200 average-sized homes.
The new 15,000 solar panels will be mounted on the ground, placed on rooftops and used to create covered parking areas and walkways. The installation of 13 new solar arrays has already started at the college's Chico Center campus and will culminate at the main campus. When all of the college's solar projects are combined, the college will have a yearly reduction of more than 6.9 million pounds of carbon dioxide, 27,000 pounds of sulfur dioxide and 20,000 pounds of nitrogen oxide.
"This solar project helps the college come close to being climate neutral and allows the college to offer solar training classes, in addition to reducing energy costs and generating revenue," says Van Der Ploeg.
Two regional companies came together to make the solar project possible. Chico Electric and DPR Construction, Sacramento combined forces to form Chico Electric DPR Energy JV and to bring expertise in sustainable energy.
The solar project will provide a boost to the local economy by employing local vendors and workers, says Mike Miller, Butte College's director of facilities, planning and management. It also saves money for taxpayers—a projected net amount of more than $150 million over 30 years.
"We're also excited that a number of the workers on this project are apprentices who went through the college's solar installation training program," says Norm Nielsen, owner of Chico Electric and a Butte College alumnus.
Over the past several years, Butte College has earned a number of national awards for sustainability leadership, including the Association for the Advancement of Sustainability in Higher Education's 2009 Campus Leadership Award, the Environmental Protection Agency's 2009 Green Power Partnership Award, the National Wildlife Association's 2008 Campus Chill-Out Award and several LEED building certifications from the U.S. Green Building Council.
The total funding for the project is $17 million, of which $12.65 million is made possible by federal Clean Renewable Energy Bonds, low-interest loans that can be used for clean energy projects. The remaining $4.35 million will be funded by the college. Funding for Phase III came from nearly $1 million in rebates from PG&E, the California Solar Initiative and American Recovery and Reinvestment Act/CREBS allocations.


I'm starting an art project not far from Main and Hastings teaching youth at Raycam Community Centre. Running 5 sessions showing the kids how to paint large portraits. Together we will be designing canvases and Christmas cards to sell at the Britannia craft fair. The sales go to running the program and feeding the kids... I'm told they eat a lot! It's great giving back to east van where I grew up showing the kids how to express a creative side and learn a valuable skill that might help make them some money!
