Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is believed to have taken a warning to US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo in Brussels tonight that Lebanon must stop Hezbollah's efforts to get precision-guided missiles, or Israel will do so.
According to Israeli media, Netanyahu's warning to Lebanon mentions recent actions by Hezbollah that cross Israel's red lines.
At the United Nations General Assembly in September, Netanyahu revealed satellite images of three sites in Beirut, including Beirut's main airport, that are being used by the Iran-backed Hezbollah terror group to hide underground precision missile production facilities.
Netanyahu landed in Brussels ahead of is meeting with U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo. The head of the Mossad, the head of the National Security Council and the military secretary also attended the meeting.
The premier and the U.S. secretary of state were originally supposed to meet on Wednesday, but it was rescheduled due to changes that were made in light of George H.W. Bush's funeral.
"I am now leaving for Brussels for an important meeting with US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo. We are in continuous contact with our American friends. I will discuss with Mike Pompeo a series of regional developments as well as the steps we are taking together to block the aggression of Iran and its proxies in the north. Of course, we will also discuss other issues", Netanyahu said prior to his departure for Brussels.

Hey Kid, Welcome to the Big Leagues!
What a great night! Starlin Castro was the big "star" of the evening as he lived up to all the hype that we Cubs fans have been hearing about. What a night, 6 runs batted in, and to start of his night, he gave us all a great show with a three-run-home run. Carlos Silva looked decent again last night as he logged his third win, but overall, Starlin Castro was the hottest Cub last night.

I sit on the board of ChatThreads, where we are in the process of raising an equity round to fund the growth of the company. Early in the process, an investor asked what the company could do to accelerate and maximize our exit. I replied my standard response: " We intend to build a great business. By building a great business, we create a great exit." While my answer was accurate and sincere, I owe the investor a more nuanced answer. My business was about buying and selling houses, I always used the best remodeling contractors like http://www.altfuels2016.com to increase the value of the houses I purchased.
We have discussed many of these scenarios with investors and with each other. I am also sure we could think of many other ways to grow the business like using Cloudpay services to manage the payments. The reality is that is that without planning your exit, at least where you want your company to be in five years, there is no way to make good decisions about any business scenario.
Based on your exit analysis, where you scrutinize each area, it is easier to visualize a possible and more balanced outcome.
Part of the exit strategy is limiting how much outside investment to take so the company can be bought at a salable price that investors will be happy with their return.


I'm sure he feels his team is just as bad. There's nothing wrong with the Steelers' culture. All teams are this dysfunctional. There's no problems folks.
Speaking of "families" and "Game of Thrones", I'd say that the Steelers are the Starks.
Dan Rooney is Ned Stark. The most respected man in Westeros/NFL, and his death left the family in disarray.
Ben is Arya Stark. You never know which Ben you're going to get. He's a chambermaid, then he's a warrior, and sometimes he's No One.
AV is The Hound. The giant who looks scary as all hell, but protects Arya.
Ramon Foster is Brienne of Tarth. Again, a (gigantic) protector of Arya... only, not as scary.
Pouncey, DeCastro, & whomever plays right tackle are all Jalen H'ghar. Again, a protector of Arya... and, he's like three different people.
James Conner is Sansa Stark. He has been through so much, but keeps fighting through it all.
Jesse James' touchdown catch is Robb Stark. Al Riveron is the embodiment of The Red Wedding.
Artie Burns is Rickon Stark, because he can only run in a straight line.
Belichick is Cersei (Lannister). Cold-hearted. Vindictive. Lies, cheats. Would kill her own family in order to achieve power. And, even more cunning than her father, Tywin (Bill Parcells).
Tom Brady is Joffrey. Yep.
Who is Jon Snow? Is it JuJu? Is it TJ Watt? Is it Mike Tomlin?
TJ is not Reek. No way. If anyone is Reek, it's AB... which means that Drew Rosenhaus is Ramsey (because, he turned Theon into Reek).
The key to everything (winning vs. losing, the future of the Steelers/Westeros) lies in the lap of Bran/Shazier. Nice!!!
AB is Oberyn. Possibly the best fighter in the whole story but ends up getting killed due to his own hubris. Before then, everybody loved him.
Just when Dupree has garnered the affection of Steelers fans (The return of Theon!!!)... he jumps overboard (Why, Reek, whyyyy!?!).
I think this all means that Dupree WILL play on the 5th year option - What is dead may never die. But rises again, harder and stronger!
And what all Steelers fans are waiting for is Daenerys - a powerful warrior (ILB)who arrives from distant shores (Big $$ FA signing) able roam from one end of the kingdom to the other (sideline to sideline) setting things right and providing decisive leadership in a time of crisis (DRAMA!). Unfortunately, the salary cap may mean we get more of the same -- Rickon Stark (Jon Bostic).
Was watching a replay of Super Bowl XLIII Over the weekend and then watching the AAF we thought we heard Greg Lloyd Jr (Was actually Greg Ward JR) but my kids asked who Greg Lloyd was, told them about Lloyd and Greene who they remember seeing on SB replays, Harrison and Woolley, Porter and Haggans and my kids asked who the "mean guy" was on the Steelers now...between Watt and Dupree and I said nether really...they said maybe that's why the defense is bad.
"Ah man, we are — Kardashians. We have, I mean, we're something," James said. "It's Le'Veon Bell issues, you have more stuff popping up weekly, Jeremy Fowler's reporting stuff about Le'Veon every other week. There's just people calling people out.
"We were in the front of the ticker on ESPN too much for just reasons that weren't related to football and not for us playing great ball. It was more distractions."
Ha ha. I forgot The Outlaw got there first!
Just kill him already...but nooooo..."you raped my sister, you murdered her, you killed her children...........you raped my sister, you murdered her, you killed her children..........."
Mason Rudolph is Gendry, someone who was popular early in the series then disappeared. But may make a comeback in the final season and be a pivotal character?

I thought Bill is Walter White and Tom Brady is Jesse. Oops never mind wrong show.
Bellichick is definitely gus fring. "Well, get back to work"
Haha Gus does sound like BB.
Indeed, it's also a good way to dodge Steeler reality.
I can't wait for The Jersey Shore comparison. AB is Snooki, Bell is Mike The Situation and etc.

Every time I see a replay of that scene, I'm convinced that the outcome will be different this time.

Versowood Group manufactures barriers for noise control and for landscape protection, which are always designed individually to best meet the needs of the environment and the application. Long experience in the design, manufacturing and installation of wooden barriers has given rise to a large number of barriers suitable for the landscape which, correctly maintained, serve at roadsides even for over 50 years.
Barriers made from weatherproofed wood are of two basic types: absorbent and reflective. The soft layers contained within the absorbent barrier prevent the reflection of sound to, for example, the other side of the road. The absorbent quality of wood is beneficially exploited also in the panelling of concrete noise reduction barriers. A reflective barrier dampens sound passing through and protects, above all, the area behind the barrier from noise.

Submissions for variant NM_001035.3(RYR2):c.12245A>C (p.Glu4082Ala) (rs1057524762)
GeneDx RCV000423260 SCV000536412 uncertain significance not provided 2017-01-19 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The E4082A variant has not been reported in as pathogenic or benign to our knowledge and is not observed in largepopulation cohorts (Lek et al., 2016; 1000 Genomes Consortium et al., 2015; Exome Variant Server). It waspublished in a functional study as part of a triple residue variant (D4079A/E4081A/E4082A) that demonstrated noeffect of the triple residue variant on Ca(2+)-dependent activation or RYR2 expression; however, E4082A was notstudied in isolation and the clinical relevance of this study is unclear. The E4082A variant is a non-conservativeamino acid substitution, which is likely to impact secondary protein structure as these residues differ in polarity,charge, size and/or other properties. While this substitution occurs at a position where amino acids with similarproperties to glutamic acid are tolerated across species, A4082 is not the wildtype residue in any of the 99 vertebratespecies for which data is available in the UCSC browser. Furthermore, the E4082A variant is located in one of thethree hot-spot regions of the RYR2 gene, where the majority of pathogenic missense variants occur (Medeiros-Domingo et al., 2009).
Invitae RCV000540789 SCV000637493 uncertain significance Catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia 2018-09-20 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change replaces glutamic acid with alanine at codon 4082 of the RYR2 protein (p.Glu4082Ala). The glutamic acid residue is highly conserved and there is a moderate physicochemical difference between glutamic acid and alanine. This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency) and has not been reported in the literature in individuals with a RYR2-related disease. This variant is located in the second EF-hand Ca2+ binding motif of the RYR2 that has been shown to be required for Ca2+ binding/release. However, the functional relevance of a missense substitution at p.Glu4028 is uncertain. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change (SIFT: "Deleterious"; PolyPhen-2: "Benign"; Align-GVGD: "Class C65"). In summary, this variant is a novel missense change with uncertain impact on protein function. It has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance.

Combine a romantic weekend getaway and football-watching at The Sand Castle Bed and Breakfast in Long Beach Island, N.J.
The Sand Castle Bed and Breakfast in Long Beach Island, N.J., has come up with a weekend package that can serve as a romantic getaway for two and a weekend of football-watching. The "man–friendly" Extra Point Package is designed around the idea of a couple having a private night in their room, with great snacks and a football game on TV, according to a press release.
The package includes a private dining experience at a chef-prepared gourmet breakfast, offering classic breakfast dishes such as eggs benedict, as well as muffins and pastries.

Are there now too many Amazon Echo devices?
Amazon is suddenly selling a gaggle of Alexa-enabled devices. Can you tell the difference between them?
These are just some of Amazon's Echo products.
By midday Wednesday, the homepage of Amazon.com was scrubbed clean of nearly all its usual listings for clever coffee mugs, flamingo-shaped pool inflatables and audaciously patterned socks.
Instead, the massive e-retailer transformed what is arguably the most valuable shopping real estate online into an electronics site that showcased its six new Alexa-enabled products.
Amazon introduced a new Echo, the Echo Plus and the Echo Spot. Oh, and Echo Connect. And Echo Buttons ... and a new Fire TV that works with Alexa, the voice assistant that powers the Echo.
The new devices come on the heels of two other Echo gadgets -- the Look and Show -- that Amazon unveiled this year. Those, of course, followed last year's Dot and Amazon Tap. And that doesn't include Alexa-powered speakers created by other companies, like Lenovo and Anker.
You may be left wondering: Isn't that a few too many Amazon smart speakers? If so, you have company.
"My first thought when I saw this range was to go to Amazon and ask them, 'What are you going to get rid of from the already established devices?'" Francesco Radicati, an Ovum analyst focused on smart homes, said Wednesday.
Of course, there are good reasons for Amazon to make so many variations of its Alexa devices.
When it created the Echo in 2014, Amazon also created the smart speaker market. Importantly, it had the new market to itself. Now, everyone seems to be jumping in. Apple, Google, Samsung and Sony are just the biggest names on the list of contenders.
Amazon may feel it needs to keep creating new forms for Alexa so customers won't be wooed away. For now, Amazon has a big lead, capturing seven out of every 10 smart speaker customers in the US, according to eMarketer. Google is a distant second.
The strategy has a potential downside. With so many models, Amazon may end up with some duds. Plus, customers could become confused about which Echo speakers have what capabilities.
Just as bad, Amazon's devices could end up competing with each other, Ovum's Radicati says, rather than the speakers Google, Apple and others make. For example, the $130 (roughly £100) Echo Spot, which has a built-in display, could cannibalize sales of the similar but larger $230 Echo Show (£200).
Amazon says the sweep of its line and range in prices means Alexa will reach a wider audience.
"We are giving our customers choice to suit their lifestyle and various needs around the home," Miriam Daniel, director of Echo devices and Alexa, said Wednesday. "Sometimes audio-only devices fulfill their needs and sometimes visual experiences are necessary."
That choice can be seen in the fashion-focused $200 Echo Look (£200), video-chat-enabled Echo Show and on-the-go $130 (roughly £100 and AU$170) Tap.
"Echo is going broad, as general purpose devices, as well as deep, in specialist devices," Werner Goertz, a Gartner analyst, said. "What they are trying to do is fill every possible gap, so you have an Echo for all occasions."
Here's the rub. Despite nine variations of Echo products, most buyers -- by far -- have opted for the $50/£50 Echo Dot, according to Adobe research and Amazon's own best-seller pages. The Amazon Tap, meanwhile, hasn't sold nearly as well. It's unclear whether people will spring for the new, sleeker-designed Echo, which is double the price of a Dot, or feel the need to upgrade an existing Echo.
Amazon might be wise getting out in front of the competition. Google is expected to introduce a new miniaturized and cheaper version of its Google Home speaker next week, and Apple will start selling its $349 (£270) HomePod speaker in December.
Now is the time for Amazon to seed the market with as many Echo devices as it can to box out competitors, argues Paul Erickson, an IHS Markit analyst.
"They are being very aggressive right now because they have a certain window of opportunity that they see," Erickson said. He isn't sure Amazon will find markets for all its new products, but it was important for the company to experiment because the smart-home devices are new and their boundaries haven't been tested.
Carolina Milanesi, an analyst at Creative Strategies, agrees. "We are really trying to find what makes people tick," she said, "so trying different things is not bad."
Amazon's decision to make its homepage all about the Echo for even a day shows that it will be focused on building the Alexa ecosystem for the foreseeable future. So, even if you're already confused, you should expect more Echo devices to come.

It's important to convey this additional need when you know you have it since most dumpster firms have a limited number of bins that will already be allowed. Most companies will work together with you to adapt your additional rental time. Should you believe you'll need the dumpster for an additional week or more, make sure to mention that; rates may change based on a longer period of time.

Last week I met a friend for lunch at Cafe DeLight. It is a small hole-in-the-wall, family-owned and operated cafe located on the first floor of Kaimuki Shopping Center, two doors down from Times Supermarket.
This cafe is very small, and seating is limited - there is a sofa, three chairs and three small tables.
I've been dying to try their lomo saltado - it was amazing. Lomo saltado is a popular traditional Peruvian dish that combines strips of marinated steak, onions, tomatoes, french fries, and spices. The sauce has a slight kick to it, but I was able to handle it even though I don't like spicy foods. I loved it so much that I sent this picture to numerous friends and told them how much I enjoyed it!
My friend enjoyed her breakfast croissant sandwich, which was served with a generous amount of deli meat and cheese.
We shared a cream puff and tiramisu. In true Japanese fashion, these desserts were very moist, light, and not overly sweet.
We both vowed to return again, after having such DELIGHTFUL experience.

While a strong argument can be made that distilling Judy Collins' career down to 16 songs is a bit limiting, considering the wide breadth of her career and catalog, this Very Best collection features great material from beginning to end. Her version of "Turn, Turn, Turn! (To Everything There Is A Season)" is from her earliest folk days, before there was even folk-rock. Her impeccable ear for emerging songwriters is made plain by the inclusion of Leonard Cohen's "Suzanne," Ian Tyson's "Someday Soon" and Joni Mitchell's "Chelsea Morning" and "Both Sides Now." The productions became more elaborate as the era progressed. Her massive hit, Stephen Sondheim's "Send In the Clowns," rests next to the spiritual "Amazing Grace." Even her gentle rendition of Bob Dylan's "Just Like Tom Thumb's Blues" works in its own peculiar way, as Collins' beautifully controlled vocals meet Dylan's surrealistic word puzzle. Her own composition, "My Father," is the cherry on top, a piece of personal revelation among so many deeply convincing interpretations.

Jack gave Judy Collins to me. Talked about her haunting voice, showed the ecstasy he felt when listening to her music. There is not another like her. And I'm not writing about good/bad, but just the sound of her voice and the clear, piercing productions of the songs.

ALBATROSS IS A MUST
This is a really wonderful collection and I'd like to give a special shout out to ALBATROSS I think ALBATROSS is one of the beautiful songs ever written- it's a perfect blend of melody, lyrics, voice, and arrangement. Not only is the imagery so haunting but also certain lines that I find so moving:
"Many people wander up the hills from all around you,
Making up your memories and thinking they have found you."
"You must barter your life
To make sure you are living"
ScotGorman , 03/06/2006
Great album, melodic and poetic. Worth the buy!
This is an excellent, greatest hits album. Judy Collins has a voice that will strike a chord within your soul. She sings each of the songs with complete conviction, clarity and sincerity. You might be surprised to find out that you know some of the songs and begin to hum or sing along (she is that popular). I am young and most of these songs were out before I was born, however, I am pleased I have had the opportunity to be introduced to Judy Collins' music. Give it a try!

Adam Milstein, advisor, Author, Business, Entrepreneur
Adam Milstein and his pro-Jewish initiatives
Adam Milstein is the managing partner at Hager Pacific Properties, an established commercial real estate investment company based in California. He's also a Jewish activist and an accomplished philanthropist in 2017, who was among the Top 200 Most Influential Do-Gooder Philanthropists and Social Entrepreneurs. Adam Milstein has also founded the Israeli American Council and the Milstein Foundation. He is currently one of the most active Jewish Americans on matters that relate to the community.
Adam Milstein has recorded success from his career as a businessman in the real estate sector. Thanks to this success, he is now able to engage in activism and philanthropy. He has dedicated a huge portion of his wealth towards these goals. One of his main goals is to see the Jewish community living in the United States working closely with their counterparts in the Middle East. The Israeli American Council is dedicated to strengthening Jewish identity by raising a new generation of Jews who understand their culture, origin and identity. Apart from these organizations, Adam Milstein is also a board member to many others. One of the organizations he supports supplies free books published in Hebrew to Jewish young people so that they can learn their language and adopt their heritage. Also, through the Milstein Foundation, many Israeli Americans cancer patients are getting health support.
Adam Milstein has sponsored numerous conferences and initiatives aimed at improving and identity of the Jewish community. One of his recent activities has been through the Milstein Meme Competition.

Adam Milstein: Protecting the Rights of the State of Israel
April 12, 2018 Carrie Jansen	Leave a comment
There is a growing anti-Semitic sentiment around the world today, and in the United States alone, the percentage of attacks against the Jewish people is at a record high. According to Adam Milstein, Israelis living around the world must consider this as a threat, and they would have to fight for their country once their enemies have decided that the State of Israel must be erased from the map. He has been working with other pro-Israel groups and to tackle these issues and point out a possible solution to how it can be stopped. The Jewish people had experienced a massive blow during the Second World War when millions of them were mercilessly killed all throughout Europe. Adam Milstein stated that he no longer wants to see a future world being engulfed in hatred and wars. He has been appealing with those who wanted to help the State of Israel, and Adam Milstein did not get disappointed with the huge amount of messages and posts that he received after he announced his worries about the hatred against the Jews.
To counter the fear against a rising superpower that could someday attack them, Adam Milstein has to ally with other groups. Together, they formed one of the largest Israeli-American gatherings in the world, and he would speak with other members of the society, trying to look for others who are supportive of what the current president of the United States, Donald Trump, wanted to do for his country. When he is not writing his articles, Adam Milstein would always get hold of his portfolio and look at his stocks and other investments. He believes that one should also save while they are receiving money. Spending in on something they do not need would only cause the money to stay inside the house.
Adam Milstein has been known all through the Jewish World as one of the most successful businessmen and entrepreneur in his chosen field. Sometimes, people would always look up into him and will be amazed at how great his accomplishments are presented. He wished for a more stable world economy, and through his dream, he managed to become a part of the solution and not a part of the problem.

David Giertz: The Fault with Financial Advisers
August 16, 2017 Carrie Jansen	Leave a comment
Having social security is very important especially for employees who are bound to retire. Social security is being deducted from the salary of a particular employee and this amount would accumulate over time, in order for them to have financial support later in life. However, according to David Giertz, the American people are facing big problems with their social security.
David Giertz stated that the American people have a growing concern over the reliability of their financial advisers. Today's financial advisers are failing miserably because they could not even properly advise their clients what to do with regards to their social security. A small percentage of Americans do not know what benefits social securities have, and a larger percentage does not have any idea on how social security can support them once they retire. The financial advisers that are being hired by individuals are having a problem digesting the rules concerning social security because it has thousands of it. Taking up this information at once seems like a daunting task for them; however, without properly reading the rules, their clients are the ones who would suffer the consequences.
David Giertz added that because of these issues between the financial advisers and the public, the profession is being tainted with unreliability and untrustworthiness. Reports are surfacing that some people who have financial advisers tend to lose money or become bankrupt, for the sole reason of not being advised properly by their hired professionals. David Giertz suggested that the financial advisers should be more open with their clients, and that they should read the rules thoroughly.
David Giertz is an American entrepreneur who is also serving as a corporate executive. His skills with finances had made him one of the most sought after people in the market, being able to produce profits that are beyond expectation.

I have plans to slow stitch..... after all the errands are run! I already did a trip to the girl scout store to pick up badges. Home for lunch (spinach salad with apples) and now I need to go get groceries.
Then... I promised to fix one opening on the boy's quilt top I found when I was rolling it onto the boards yesterday. That will allow us to roll it and get it pinned for quilting. If I still have patience, I might let him quilt it today.
After all that.... I plan to sit and relax in my recliner and work on some hand stitching of flying geese for my second Block #3 of the Hand Pieced Quilt Along..... Here is the first with all the parts for the second block all prepped and ready to go!
Then I'll work on the yellow umbrella that I never got to last week. You will notice the small piece of brown... yes, that is what I cut on the day I planned to work on it in the car line. It was a wee bit small and so that plan got delayed. It will get made tonight... who knows, I might even pull the next fabrics and get that one done too!
Linking up with the other Slow Stitchers over at Kathy's Quilts.
Sounds like the perfect way to spend your afternoon!
Enjoy hand stitching those pretty flying geese!
Nice job on your hand stitching of the blocks. My first and still unfinished quilt was all by hand. I thought I would join the SAL and just haven't done it yet. I still plan to do it. Three of us widows are very good friends and are known as "The Triplets" at the widow meeting at church. I'm the only one of us who actually attends the church. We each have a different favorite color. I thought it would be fun to use the favorite color and probably white and make a two tone quilt for each of us. I might one red/white/blue. She used to do USO shows and has been to 82 countries and loves that combo. Her birhday is in March, so I don't think it would be done and I could still give it to her for Christmas. At the rate I'm going, I might have it done by then. LOL I read some more of your posts and learned that you also knit. About all I knit is dishcloths. I get bored with just stockinette stitch and can get frustrated with complex patterns. I don't like seams either, so dishcloths are perfect. The gals love them also. I use some of the stitch patterns I find on the net/pinterest as well as dishcloth patterns per se. Thanks for posting and being an encouragement to me.

Douglas Messerli | Writers from the Diaspora of Truth (on Davenport's The Jules Verne Steam Balloon and Sorrentino's Rose Theatre)
WRITERS FROM THE DIASPORA OF TRUTH
Guy Davenport The Jules Verne Steam Balloon: Nine Stories (San Francisco: North Point Press, 1987)
Gilbert Sorrentino Rose Theatre (Normal, Illinois: Dalkey Archive Press, 1987)
Over the last two and a half decades, Guy Davenport and Gilbert Sorrentino have come to be recognized as two of the leading postmodern fiction writers, that is as fiction writers working against the normative patterns of psychological realism established by authors of the 1940s and 1950s such as Robert Penn Warren, Saul Bellow, Norman Mailer and John Cheever. Of course, even 20th-century fiction has always included far more than the psychological novel allowed, as Davenport and Sorrentino are well aware. In this sense, perhaps, it is a disservice to confuse these writers with something standing entirely apart from the modern tradition. For Davenport's interconnected stories, The Jules Verne Steam Balloon owes more to the high modernist collage-fictions of Max Ernst and to the pre-modern philosophical treatise-fictions of Søren Kierkegaard than to the self-referential modes of much of contemporary writing. And Sorrentino's Rose Theater is, as is all of his fiction, deeply steeped in the modernist novels of Flann O'Brien and James Joyce.
Indeed, Davenport's story-series might be best illuminated in the context of a modern masterwork of interrelated tales such as Eudora Welty's The Golden Apples. True, where Welty and writers like her use myth and history as symbols to reveal the psychological complexities of the lives of ordinary characters, Davenport employs outlandish figures who inhabit a world in which myth and history are demeaned, forgotten, or downright dangerous. In "Pyrrhon of Elis" the Skeptic philosopher Pyrrhon levels all meaning—in an ironic reversal of Descartes—by doubting the existence of everything around him, including himself: "I may not be, I think." In "We Often Think of Lenin in the Clothespin Factory," the characters speak nostalgically of art and artists from Pushkin, Canaletto, Rilke, and Robert Walser to the Aleksandr Deineka paintings, "Workers' Summer Vacation Pool" and "Lenin Taking a Walk in His Car"—as if all were equal. And in "Bronze Leaves and Red," Davenport approaches the unforgivable in writing a tale in which our century's monster, Adolf Hitler, is represented as living in an idyllic world of social calls to Wagner's widow, chess games, music, macaroons, and metaphysical discussions. These stories present, in short, exactly that world which Welty and so many other great modern writers feared for us.
But these are purposeful intrusions of possible evil in a world that otherwise is as idyllic as that of Welty's King/Zeus figure, while Davenport's Hugo Trevmunding romps in a world alive with sexual excitement and desire. Through the interleaving of botanical descriptions and the actions of his various Scandinavian pan-sexual lovers, Davenport's Sweden literally throbs with an adolescent agitation of its sexual parts. Brother and sister, brother and brother, sister's lover and brother, brother and sister's lover's students—everyone gets into the act in Davenport's panegyric to free sex. And indeed, living as we do in an AIDS-conscious culture, Davenport's liberated 1960s Sweden becomes as mythic, as magical and desirable, as the Greek myth embedded in Welty's 1940s small Southern town.
And as in Welty's world, the worst dangers to the boys of Hugo's NFS Grundtvig lie not in the past-in outmoded laws or in parental displeasure-but in a loss of the present made meaningful by dreams of the future and understood through the past. The villains of The Jules Verne Steam Balloon are those levelers of meaning as exemplified by Hugo's mysterious bicycle rider, a young man he encounters, falls vaguely in love with, and attempts to teach. But the bicycle rider, lost in neural hallucinations of LSD, marijuana, cocaine and the promises of a fraudulent Transcendental Meditation Group, will not be taught. In that throbbing world of the living, the bicycle rider experiences nothing but the phantoms of his own non-acts. It is Hugh, like Welty's Virgie Rainey, who can see clearly the signs of the heavens, who has the vision to transform his acts into meaning in life. For Virgie, the vision is represented in the image of Perseus severing the head of Medusa; for Hugo, it is a wonderful contraption of the 19th-century, the stream balloon, inhabited by creatures of some science-fiction future: here the present truly meets the future in its past.
One wonders how these "stories" read apart from each other; together they make perfect sense.
Gilbert Sorrentino's Rose Theatre explores similar terrain. Focusing on issues and characters that appear in several of his previous books, Sorrentino also attempts to uncover truth. But like Davenport's Pyrrhon, the author strongly doubts whether it exists; or perhaps one should say that he is intensely sensitive to how it can be manipulated. For Sorrentino does not have the faith of a Davenport or of a Welty in the human race. As our most brilliant social satirist-censorious and vituperative as Rabelais—the most he can do is to demonstrate our follies and forgive them. But in a society that separates myth even from its religions, that is no mean feat. Try as they might, the shallow women and sadistic men of Sorrentino's world can find no way out of either the fictions of their own making or the fiction of the book. Trapped in language, they can merely speak, aping the linguistic society that has created them. But what hilarious verbal portraits they serve up!
Giving a real voice to the "less than zero world," Sorrentino wakes us to our own inanities. We feel we do "sort of know" all about our culture's easy assimilation and acceptance of everything from new cuisines to kinky sex. In Rose Theater, as in his other fictions, sex seldom results in either pleasure or propagation of the species, but is a tool of domination and destruction. Sex for Sorrentino's ten ladies, trotted out in the Roman sunlight, is a spiraling vortex into what his character Joanne Lewis dreams is the mouth of Hell opened for her.
These may seem like trivial questions, but put within the context of thousands of small and large lies, misunderstandings and contradictions, they become important clues in the diaspora of truth. Rose Theatre is the second volume of Sorrentino's projected trilogy, and what he has done here is to bring into question nearly all the information of the first volume, Odd Number. Thus, he makes apparent how impossible it is to comprehend reality, let alone to believe in it.
Perhaps Sorrentino summarizes this predicament best in his fable of the seven wives who marry seven husbands. Upon their marriage, the sisters decide to secretly nickname each of their seven husbands; the husbands, in turn, secretly nickname their seven wives. It so happens that these wives each acquire lovers whom they also nickname: And the husbands, having evidently uncovered their wives' secret names for them, insist their seven lovers call them by the same nicknames. Who is who? If even the name—that which ancient cultures held sacred and eternal—changes from instant to instant, how can language, which after all is the way we think, be expected to reveal anything but itself, its own shifting and slippery track? The chapter in which Sorrentino tells us this tale is titled "Tree of Golden Apples." The tree, which for Welty (through W. B. Yeats) represented truth, the ideal of human experience, is mocked in Sorrentino's satire as sticking in the mind of his character because he liked "images." No steam balloon appears in Rose Theatre as a sign—vague as it might be—of meaning. For Sorrentino's fiction does not reveal a world of sense, of reason, but portrays with equal brilliance our fall into nonsense, into the babel of our everyday lives.

Norma Benporath tatted cloth and scrapbooks
Benporath, Norma
Norma Benporath (1900-1998) was an expert in tatting techniques and taught and published extensively on the subject. These examples of her work and instruction present a detailed account of the development of the technique which achieved significant popularity for women in Australia from 1930-1960. In 1952 she published her 164 page 'Every Woman's Guide to Tatting Illustrated' which was circulated in Australia and New Zealand. In conjunction with the Australian thread maker, Semco, Benporath …

Object Statement
Tatted cloth and scrapbooks (2), cotton / paper, made by Norma Benporath, Brisbane, Queensland, Australia, 1930-1960
The tatted cloth is a rectangular table runner made to Benporath's design in cotton thread with a pattern of ten roundels surrounded by a border with scalloped edge. The thread probably began as cream but has become yellowed. The cloth does not appear to relate to any of the patterns in the scrapbooks.
The scrapbooks contain Benporath's personal collection of her articles and patterns for magazines and newspapers in Australia and New Zealand dating from 1934 and 1935. One scrapbook contains patterns and articles collected in 1934 from The Australasian, The Queenslander, Australian Needlework, Home Beautiful, Everybody's Journal, The Sun, South Australian Homes and Gardens, The New Idea, The Weekly Times, Melbourne. The other scrapbook contains patterns and articles collected from 1934 and 1935 from The Housewives' Journal, The Illustrated Tasmanian Mail, New Zealand Women's Weekly, The Queenslander, Australian Needlework, The Weekly News (NZ), The Sun, South Australian Homes and Gardens, Australian Home Budget and New Zealand Free Lance.

The cloth was designed and made by Norma Benporath between 1930 and 1960 using her own special technique. Benporath compiled these scrapbooks on her articles and patterns illustrating the Tattering technique during 1934 and 1935.
Norma Benporath was born with cataracts on both eyes which severely restricted her sight. She was determined from a very early age to publish a book, though she was not sure on what subject. One family holiday she watched her aunt tatting and was told that this did not require such perfect eyesight as embroidery. Norma worked out her own way of mastering the technique. She copied all the patterns that were available to her and then designed her own. Her mother assisted by embroidering monograms and mounting her work. Her father made her a special tortoiseshell shuttle. In 1929 Norma began to write articles about the technique.
When in 1998 she received the OAM, Norma did not realise that it was on the recommendation of members of the Australian Tatters' Guild, New South Wales Branch who had made her a life member. She kept the news a secret from them and they pretended it was a complete surprise! The presentation at Government House in Brisbane was the highlight of Benporath's life. Subsequently her health sadly deteriorated until she died in 1998 at age 97.
Judith Connors was closely associated with Benporath and passed these objects on to the Museum on behalf of Benporath. She is also a keen tatter and has published on the subject.

Uranium Energy Corp Extends Credit Facility to January 2020
UEC | February 10, 2016
Canada NewsWire
CORPUS CHRISTI, TX, Feb. 10, 2016
NYSE MKT Equities Exchange Symbol – UEC
Maturity of existing credit facility is extended to January 1, 2020, further strengthening the Company's working capital position and financial flexibility.
Company benefits from continuing support of two of the most respected investors in the natural resource sector.
CORPUS CHRISTI, TX, Feb. 10, 2016 /CNW/ - Uranium Energy Corp. (NYSE MKT: UEC, the "Company" or "UEC") is pleased to announce that the Company and its lenders, Sprott Resource Lending Partnership and CEF (Capital Markets) Limited (collectively, the "Lenders"), have agreed to extend the previously announced $20,000,000 senior secured credit facility (the "Credit Facility") by deferring required principal payments to February 1, 2019 and by extending the maturity date of the Credit Facility to January 1, 2020 (together, the "Credit Facility Extension").
Rick Rule, Director, President and Chief Executive Officer of Sprott US Holdings, Inc., stated, "We are pleased to extend our long term credit facility to UEC. The company has a proven management team that has developed and operated US uranium assets in difficult market conditions. We believe these conditions will improve markedly over time. Investors should note that the US has the largest current nuclear fleet in the world, and domestically we produce about 7% of what we consume."
CEF's Chairman and CEO, Warren Gilman, added, "We are pleased to continue our support of UEC, a company that continues to execute on its plan to become a leading uranium producer in the U.S. We continue to be impressed with the quality and experience of management and the quality of the Company's low-cost ISR assets."
Amir Adnani, President and CEO, stated, "The Credit Facility Extension strengthens UEC's financial options and balance sheet capabilities. We continue to advance our portfolio of low cost ISR projects in the U.S., primarily in South Texas and in Paraguay in anticipation of high-growth, low-cost ISR production as the uranium markets strengthen."
The interest rate for the Credit Facility remains unchanged at 8%. The Company will pay an extension fee to the Lenders in the form of common shares equal to less than 1.0% dilution of the total shares outstanding, which is approximately 959,163 shares. The exercise price under the existing warrants previously issued to the Lenders has been lowered from $2.50 to $1.35 with a new expiry date of January 30, 2020 to match the new maturity date of the Credit Facility.
As with the Company's prior Credit Facility, should any principal be outstanding on each of February 1st 2017, 2018 and 2019, an annual fee will continue to be due in cash or stock, at the option of the Company, at the rate of 5.5%, 4.5% and 4.5%, respectively, on each such date. No annual fee payment is payable should the Credit Facility be repaid in full prior to such dates.
