Cornbread stuffing with sweet onion is a flavorful side dish that will delight your family and friends.
It is a slight change to a traditional recipe that is easy to make and so delicious! Use it as a great stuffing alongside of your poultry dishes. When it is time to start thinking about your holiday turkey, consider using this cornbread stuffing recipe for a change of pace. Some folks like tradition, so do not replace your standard stuffing, but try making more than one stuffing variation. It is a good way to make the traditionalists happy and introduce something new.

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Lightly butter a large casserole dish.
In a small saucepan over medium-high heat, heat the chicken broth until hot. Reduce heat to low to keep the broth hot until ready to use.
In a large frying pan over medium-high heat, melt the butter. Add onion and celery and saute until tender. Pour the hot chicken broth into the vegetable mixture in the frying pan and stir to combine.
In a large bowl, combine the prepared Cornbread Croutons (see recipe below), sage, and parsley. Gently mix in the prepared vegetable mixture to the crouton mixture. Place this cornbread mixture in the prepared casserole dish.
Bake approximately 20 to 25 minutes or until the stuffing is golden brown.
If, by any chance, you some some cornbread left over - how about using it to make Cornbread Croutons? Making Cornbread Crouton is very easy-to-do and so good! I can think of no better way to use leftover cornbread than as croutons to top off your next dinner. You could use these croutons on your salads, chili, stews, and soups. Also, wouldn't these Cornbread Croutons make a wonderful turkey stuffing/dressing? Yum!
Chop the leftover cornbread into approximately 3/4-inch cubes. Spread cubes on a rimmed baking sheet.
Drizzle with either melted butter or oil, or do as I did and spray with some non-stick cooking spray (such as Pam). Sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste and toss gently. NOTE: You could also add some fresh or dried herbs of your choice.


It didn't take long for progressives to turn on Democratic Rep. Tulsi Gabbard (Hawaii) after she announced Friday that she was throwing her hat in the ring for 2020. Her cardinal sin? Not only did she previously hold anti-gay views—she actively worked against the LGBT community through her father's organization, The Alliance for Traditional Marriage and Values, in the early 2000s.
Taking a page from former President Obama's playbook, Gabbard is now saying that she has evolved on the issue and since being in Congress has worked to advance LGBT interests.
"First, let me say I regret the positions I took in the past, and the things I said. I'm grateful for those in the LGBTQ+ community who have shared their aloha with me throughout my personal journey," she said in a statement.
While she may have apologized, forgiveness doesn't seem quick to come by many on the left.
If she does somehow survive this she'll face a long, uphill battle in convincing the left of her progressive credentials--especially in what's sure to be a crowded field.


This project is an exploration of the concept of beauty and femininity in modern society through a series of self-portraits. I asked different young women to choose poses for a portrait and copied them, standing nearby or in the background. My attempts to perform exact copies of their poses and expressions create an ironic image and address the societal attitude towards women and the role photography plays in it.

In his paper; "Conditional Reflexes" the scientist Ivan Pavlov proved that a dog could be conditioned to respond to a stimulus. He presented a dog with food and the dog began to salivate. He also rang a bell every time he presented the food. Eventually he could ring the bell and cause the dog to salivate without any food being present. The act of the dog salivating at the ring of the bell is what is known as a "conditioned response".
Why is this important? Because many people have mistaken emotional drivers for behavior for conditioned responses. It is true that emotions drive our behavior and that we are more or less likely to do something because of the way we feel at any given point; however, there is no specific emotional trigger that results in all users salivating for your product – no matter how many buttons that you push to get there.
Emotions compel human beings to take action. If we are confronted by an angry person it may be fear that causes us to flee or rage that causes us to fight. If we feel insecure we might buy a status symbol such as a Rolex or Rolls-Royce to combat that insecurity. If we feel happy we might burst into song. And so on..
For designers this is important because it means that a product which consists of nothing but attributes, features and data in the minds of users – is a product that will have a hard time being adopted by the market.
An emotional brand response is more likely to create adoption of products. If a user cares about the emotional story that is projected to them – they are going to want to investigate that story further.
The product as a brand must tell an emotional story to connect with consumers. This means there is an overlap between traditional user experience activities and marketing activities. Marketers will try to create the emotional story in the marketing but if the product reflects that story it is more likely to sustain loyalty and increase the chances of appropriation (when users find alternative uses for a product that were not intended by their creators).
Design and indeed marketing are iterative processes. An idea is refined over and over again until such time as it is no longer required. The same holds true for emotional design and there is a great source of emotional research that is often missed during the evaluation of products.
When a design is appropriated by a user; that appropriation is likely to create a series of positive emotions. The user will feel pleased with themselves, they may also feel pride in what they have created.

These emotional stories which are created through appropriation are rarely incorporated in the emotional story of the product as told by the creators. Yet, they may be a rich source of emotion which can be easily tapped and shared with users not just to create an emotional response but also to provide stimulation for further appropriation of the product itself. The more a product is used, whether it is used for the designer's intended purpose or not, the more longevity it has in the market and the more useful it becomes and in turn the more likely it is that a user will purchase the product.
Human beings are emotional creatures and much of our actions are a response to our emotions rather than to a reasoned process. Research shows a clear link between emotional connections with a product and sales and longevity. Cooperation between design and marketing can create emotional stories that make products easier to be adopted and then appropriated. Appropriation itself is a rich source of emotional stories and should be investigated carefully during iterations of both design and marketing approaches.

Beloved masters, the power and magnitude of the Supreme Creator is awesome and beyond human comprehension. It is the driving force behind everything that has ever been or ever will be created in the Omniverse. It is time you remember how to harness and use the Life Force of Creation as you reclaim your birthright as a cocreator of joy, peace, and abundance. The Creator via our Father/Mother God supplies your LIFE FORCE by way of the Silver Cord (often called the Rainbow Bridge of consciousness) through your God Ray, and finally through your Higher Self as it filters down through your crown chakra and throughout your etheric, mental, emotional and physical bodies. However, there are many factors that determine how much of this radiant life force you can access or draw to and through you. The majority of humanity is on a "starvation diet" in more ways than one, primarily because they have shut down the connections to their soul and higher selves, and also have what could be called an "armor of distorted energy," created by all the third- and fourth-dimensional imperfections. They have forgotten that all the life force they will ever need is available within that vertical tube of Light, and so they seek to tap into the energy of those closest to them, horizontally, through the three lower chakras and especially the solar plexus chakra. This has created the push-pull dance and struggle for power and supremacy that has been prevalent on your Earth for many thousands of years. The strongest force in the Omniverse is the LOVE FORCE which is radiated through the Essence of the feminine or GODDESS energy of the Creator. First, the masculine Essence of the Creator brings forth "SEEDS" of new creation within ITS mind, resulting in a Divine Blueprint which is then enfolded within the LOVE CORE or the emotional nature of the Goddess Essence. A wondrous and magnificent process is thereby initiated resulting in creations beyond your greatest imaginings. You, as humans, are one of those magnificent creations.
There was a time in your ancient past when the aspects of the Mother Creator were the dominant energy and focal point of worship. For many thousands of years it has been a patriarchal world and the Creator has been envisioned and acknowledged in only the male aspect of its greatness. Just as you are bringing together all the parts of your vaster Being, it is time to reunite and acknowledge the wholeness, as well as the many expressions of the Creator. The Goddess aspect, the Mother God, or the feminine energy of the Creator, is radiating more of her attributes and energy throughout the universe at this time, the attributes of Divine love, compassion, illumination, nurturance, gratitude, faith, creativity and the inner focus and awareness of Spirit. These blessed energies will enhance, refine and complement the masculine aspects of the Creator, Divine will to create, wisdom, truth, valor, decisiveness and power.
Before many of you came into this lifetime, you agreed to be the bearers of the gentle, sweet energy of the Goddess. Yes, many in the male body, as well as those in the female body, agreed to allow the energy of the Goddess to overlight them so that they would become the examples for others to see, and hopefully, to emulate. As a result, it is no longer so radical for the male in a family to be the one who is the nurturer and caretaker of the young ones. Many brave men are allowing their gentle side to emerge as they begin to express their feelings and acknowledge their emotional nature. The difference between the male psyche and the female psyche is narrowing as each begins to integrate the masculine or feminine aspects of Self. On the opposite side, many born in the female body agreed at a soul level to integrate and allow their male side to take dominance, thereby becoming more active out in the world of business, service and government. While playing their feminine role, they are also assertively making their mark in other areas of endeavor which were, heretofore, the exclusive domain of the male population. It is one more aspect of the integration that is taking place on many levels.
Just as you were separated from your Divine Twin Ray, so was the Essence of our Father/Mother God separated aeons beyond aeons ago. The process of reunification has begun from the highest level outward and downward into the lowest levels of Creation, and our Father/Mother God are also in the process of being reunited throughout the universe, as well as on Earth and within each of you. Of all the glorious happenings that are taking place, this is the most awe-inspiring and all-encompassing occurrence.
Allow me to give you a vision of the perfection of the grand plan for you to ponder and to help speed up the process of remembering who you are and why you are here on planet Earth. The Creator's directive for this universe was that there would be many unique, detailed and focused Creations brought forth, whereby those of you who were drawn to a particular world and culture would become experts in one specific aspect or attribute of Creation. Whatever your focus was: mental, emotional, scientific, medical, historical, creative, teaching, nurturing and serving, leading and directing, then those particular aspects and attributes were integrated into your Divine blueprint/mission through the energies and overlay of the energy patterns of the great Rays. That is what you have endeavored to do throughout the ages, to bring your special attributes and talents to the fore and to perfect them as they were in the beginning.
See the vast multitudes of Divine Sparks of consciousness flowing out into the universe via the energies of the great Rays from the heart of the Father/Mother Creator of this universe to the Cocreator Gods, the Paradise Sons, the Elohim, the builders of form, the angelic realms, the great Beings of Light and ultimately, YOU. Envision yourselves among these blessed, brave ones as you surge and flow, experience, create and grow in knowledge and expertise. Aeons later, the next part of the grand plan was put into effect and the vision of a small, special planet was brought forth, a planet which would be beautiful beyond measure, for all the wonders of Creation would be brought to this one small place within the outer limits of a galaxy, at the farthest edge of Creation.
You descended first into a beautiful, perfect etheric form called your Etheric Web, and then you began to mold your physical body around it, a Divine body brought forth from the mind of the Creator. You kept a portion of your "cosmic memory" intact for many ages, until the Earth and humanity sank into the density of the third/fourth dimensions. The veil of forgetfulness was gradually drawn across your memory and a veil or quarantine was placed around the memory of Mother Earth's consciousness as well. You have journeyed for many thousands of years feeling alone and disconnected from us, the Beings of Light, and from your own Divine Self. You were sent forth to experience, create, gain wisdom, and share the expertise and knowledge that are uniquely yours. You had to learn what it entails to create on the physical plane, in a physical body, and as you endeavor to perfect your earthly skills to remember that YOU ARE A MASTER OF LIGHT.
So see yourself shedding the anchors and the weights that are keeping you walking the depths, in the quagmire, the fog and illusion of the lower dimensions. Allow yourself to shed the layers, the burdens that are keeping you stuck or anchored. Allow yourself to soar, once again, into the rarified heights. Are you aware that those of you who have advanced your frequencies and resonance beyond that of the Earth are actually assisting your beloved planet to move higher up the spiral of ascension? That is part of your mission, dear ones, to assist your brothers and sisters, but also to be Light streams that become stronger and more buoyant, lifting the mass consciousness, clearing the Golden Etheric Web of your Mother Earth so that she can, once again, claim her destined position in the grand drama of evolution.
Your "cosmic memory" is returning as you clear and balance all the energies created through the mistakes, trials and errors made down through the ages. All was part of the overall grand plan, my brave ones, but it was not known how the drama would play out until it was brought forth and implemented, and free will was granted as the ultimate test in cocreation.
How wondrous it is to watch you, my brave ones, as you remember and as you recognize those who are your companions-in-Spirit, those from whom you were separated and have missed so sorely. We revel in your excitement and joy as you lovingly reunite and share the experiences of your journey, as you bring forth and share the wisdom you have garnered, and allow others to help you reclaim and integrate that which you lack.
Indeed, it is a time of great change, a time when all the facets of Creation are striving to return to the harmony of unity consciousness from which they sprang. Those who remain on the fringes, and those who are unwilling to begin the process of awakening and integration will feel more and more isolated. The sense of being alone and cut off will increase until they cry out in anguish, and reach out to those of you waiting to lovingly assist them back on the path and the homeward journey. Eventually, we will all rejoin one with another, fully conscious and aware while unified in Spirit, within the dwelling place of our Father/Mother God. We are awaiting the opportunity to assist you to leap beyond the obstacles and boundaries which keep you ensnared in anything less than the balanced and harmonious vibrations of Love/Light.
We implore you, do not become attached to any way of being, any one modality, any philosophy that is too narrow or too structured, and do not buy into any agreement that gives power to someone outside yourself. Always practice discernment, dear hearts, a God-given aspect of free will. We cannot emphasize this enough, for as quickly as an apparent truth comes forth and you incorporate it into your belief system, it may be superseded by a higher truth, or a new concept. In looking back, can you not see that much of the knowledge you now accept as your absolute truth was beyond your wildest imagining five years ago, or even a year ago? Be aware that what you are so certain about today will undoubtedly change tomorrow or next week. That is why you are feeling so vulnerable, beloved ones, you are shedding density and integrating Light, and so is your world and everyone around you.
You cannot fail, you can only hold yourself back and create discomfort if you struggle and keep yourself submerged in the old density. Accept these most precious gifts that are being offered, become your own sacred witness as you glean, sort, release and refine the information and experiences that move into higher, more refined awareness. Do not become bogged down or attached to any set pattern or belief structure as you gradually emerge from the cocoon of a physical-human Being into the crystalline form of a spiritual-human Being. Allow yourself to ride the crest of the mighty waves of transformation. Remember, as you move quickly along the narrow path toward illumination, it is your own private journey and no one else can tell you how to proceed; however, we are ever near to assist and protect you. We are only a heartbeat and a thought away, beloveds.

Irwin Found Not Guilty in Drug Trafficking Case
by Julie Rae Rickard
in Crime, Local News, News, Top Stories
CLEARFIELD – After a two-day trial in Clearfield County Court, a jury determined a Clearfield man was not selling drugs, but only possessing them.
The case was prosecuted by Senior Deputy Attorney General Dave Gorman for the Attorney General's office while Irwin was represented by attorney Brian Jones.
John L. Irwin, 37, was charged with three felony counts of possession with intent to deliver a controlled substance, three misdemeanor counts of intentional possession of a controlled substance and possession of drug paraphernalia, as well as two felony firearm charges after he was located in a Lawrence Township residence along with methamphetamine, heroin, mushrooms, pills and a gun in January of 2019.
According to the affidavit, state parole agents with assistance from Lawrence Township Police investigated a report of Irwin who was wanted for violating state parole, being at a Hill Street residence.
When they arrived they found Irwin upstairs sitting on a cooler in a bedroom. Also in the room was Alen Erskine who lived there, Amber Johnston of Curwensville and a small child.
Near his location was a black box on a work bench that also had drug paraphernalia, a bag of suspected methamphetamine on it, included two cell phones and two notebooks with alleged drug sale information.
Inside the box they found a pistol with the serial number scratched off. Underneath the bench was a lock box that was bolted to the floor.
Johnston said the bolted lock box belonged to her and she voluntarily opened it for officials.
Inside was $2,330 in cash, 37 small bags of heroin, two bags of mushrooms, and several unknown pills. Johnston stated that all of these items belonged to Irwin, except some of the loose bills.
Irwin told a state parole agent that anything found in the bedroom was his, according to the criminal complaint.
After deliberating on Tuesday afternoon, the jury found Irwin guilty of possessing heroin, methamphetamine, Fentanyl and drug paraphernalia but he was acquitted on the felony charges involving delivery of the controlled substances and the firearm charges.
Irwin will be scheduled for sentencing within 60 days.
In connection with this case, Erskine pleaded guilty to misdemeanor intentional possession of a controlled substance and endangering the welfare of a child in Sept. 2019 when he was sentenced to nine months to two years less one day in the county jail and one year probation.
Johnston pleaded guilty to endangering the welfare of children, possession of a controlled substance and possession of drug paraphernalia in July 2019 when she was sentenced to 45 days to one year in jail and two years consecutive probation.

Q: Vue JS - How can i scroll (focus) to the 'Active' li element? I have an unordered list with a bunch of li elements inside. When using the arrow keys to move up and down the list (which highlights the current one and sets the Active class to true of that li element), I want the modal to scroll (focus) on the li element which has the class of Active set to true.
How do I go about doing this?

A: What do you mean by model? the viewport of the user?
Then you will need to create a method and call it, with something along the lines of the following:
 window.scrollBy({
   top: targetYourElementHere.getBoundingClientRect().top,
   behavior: 'smooth'
 })

Here is a rumor that I find interesting enough that to speculate on what Apple's auto plans may be. Supposed Apple isn't quite ready to build a car on its own or not in the time frame that it wants to push out an Apple car. It would have to find a partner. In this rumor (9to5Mac), Apple may be in talks with BMW (or had discussions) to use the i3 (wiki) as the basis for its own car.
It's anyone's guess why Apple is talking to BMW and only a tell-all-book about Tim Cook, Jony Ives, or just the iCar in 2020 will answer that question and it may not even be definitive, suppose Apple is not build its car right away. Supposed it only wants to showcase its own designs and technology in an existing car like the i3 for the world to see - this is an Apple designed car.
And it is willing to work with different brands, perhaps Mercedes, Audi, Porsche, or any other luxury brand cars to co-develop showcase electric vehicles not unlike how Google is using the Nexus devices to showcase its Android OS. And perhaps, years later, Apple may eventually unveil a car wholly designed by its team without outside help.
Now, it would not be like the Motorola ROKR, the first "i" phone that had a flaw iPod support thich later gave way to the iPhone. While Steve Jobs hated that monstrocity, Apple will put it 110% of its effort into cars it works on with other brands and they'll love them as much as if they had developed them themselves. It will give Apple the ability to dip their toes into the auto industry without a full plunge, learn from the mistakes and then develop the iCar much later. Of course, such partnerships with car companies will still exist even if Apple does end up selling its own car because Apple is not going to be able to release line after line of cars immediately. It would take years if not decades. Look at how long Telsa has expanded to a second model, the Model X, after the Model S. The Model X is still no on the road.
Why would an auto company be interested in working with Apple? Well, it is Apple after all. That is a good enough reason. Some companies will not want to work with Apple for obvious reasons. They are doing well on their own and may not be keen on giving up control to some aspects of the design to another company even if it is Apple. And Apple will likely have draconian terms that they'll want auto partners to adhere too. It's like that it will be a bit flexible in trying to get BMW onboard but that is about it. Apple will likely be willing to share some information with auto companies. For instance, like battery technology.
In the long term, even if Apple end up parting ways with auto companies and end up going at it alone, it is better for them to have had the experience of working with Apple than not. This is one instance where if an auto executive said "the phone or PC guys are not just gonna waltz in here and make a car that people will want to buy", most including Apple friendly media and blogs will likely agree.
Apple does have a long roadmap for its involvement in the auto industry. There are some ideal routes that it wants to follow but there are also twists and turns that are drawn out depending on market and economic conditions. This includes a turn that takes into the account of Apple even not getting into this market at all if it cannot build a car that is better than what is already out on the road or it is unable to make money on it.
But a Nexus model for Apple's cars in the first few years is not a bad plan at all. The auto industry is a competitive market but it is also one where many companies also cooperate with one another to source parts or partner in other ways. So, if this rumor is true, we may be looking at an Apple-BMW electric car on the road sooner than expected.

A blog for the curious.
When reading Walter Isaacson's Leonardo da Vinci I was struck by an anecdote about how Leonardo, Machiavelli, and Cesare Borgia spent time together in the same small Italian town. Wanting to know more about what drew together three men from seemingly very different walks of life I bought a handful of books about them.
The first two of these I read are G.J. Meyer's The Borgias and Christopher Hibbert's The Borgias and Their Enemies. They're an interesting contrast in books. Hibbert's takes a more traditional view of the family and relates as historical fact the stories of foul play, nepotism, and illegitimate children. Meyer's, though, calls some of the Borgia myth into question and points out the tenuous nature of some source material. Personally I found Meyer's more fair and interesting, but I'm no historian.
There's a ton from each book that I took notes on and learned. A couple general points are worth noting. Overall if you're to read one of the two I'd start with Meyer's.
There's a reason Showtime ran a three-season TV show on this family. The problem is that we're dealing with events of the 1400s. Some of the source material is dubious at best. One oft-cited source is, essentially, a 15th-century gossip.
Meyer's book tries to dig beyond conventional wisdom. It's not a sensationalist history and tries to be fair. I'm glad I read it first rather than just assuming the stories from Hibbert's book were unquestioned fact. Meyer also describes the problem of historical accuracy as this:
This is the Borgia problem in a nutshell: wildly outlandish accusations accepted as true generation after generation because when taken together they add up to one of the most gloriously lurid stories in all of history. Anecdotes about murder and incest that are especially delicious because their subject is a pope, and that have become so firmly embedded in the consciousness of the whole world that to question them can seem fatuous, to challenge them preposterous.1
Cesare Borgia was a key inspiration for Machiavelli's The Prince. Given that images of cruelty, heavy-handedness, and violence might come to mind. One thing I learned is that Cesare's violence has to be compared to contemporary peers. And here he's, in some cases, almost humanitarian.
Hibbert quotes from Machiavelli in describing rulers within this territory:
[these lands were] a nursery of all the worst crimes, of outbreaks of rapine and murder, resulting from the wickedness of local lords…For these lords were poor, yet endeavouring to live as though they were rich, they resorted to innumerable cruelties.2
When taking over these towns Cesare typically took a different approach. He figured that if he built a reputation of generosity and fairness he'd have an easier time taking over additional towns. Meyer writes that Cesare, "was making it his practice to deal generously with people and places whose lord he intended to remain, thereby winning the loyalty of cities accustomed to the random cruelties of sadists."3 His plan worked as in some cases he was able to take over towns without resorting to violence. Simple persuasion of the people was enough.
Rome of this era was crime-ridden by modern standards. That in itself wasn't that surprising to learn. There's an anecdote in both books that stuck with me, though.
Juan, Duke of Gandia and one of the many powerful Borgia children during the late-1400s, was murdered and his body thrown into the Tiber. Eventually the pope's forces learn that a night watchman had seen five men dump a body into the river and weight it down with rocks. When asked why he'd not reported the watchman replied, "that in the course of many nights standing guard over cargo barges he had seen any number of corpses deposited in the river, and that until now no one had ever seemed to care."4

Revolution and Rebellion in the Early Modern World
I bought Jack Goldstone's Revolution and Rebellion in the Early Modern World after reading some of its ideas referenced in Michael Mann's The Sources of Social Power. It sat on my shelf for a few months until a vacation earlier this year provided an opportune quiet time to start reading. It's a dense, academic book and it's unlikely I remember many of Goldstone's ideas. There are a handful, though, that I want to detail and hope to remember.
Theory of revolution
Goldstone's guiding question throughout the work is why state breakdown on a worldwide scale occurred in two waves separated by a century of stability. He focuses on demographics and looks at how worldwide population trends impact early modern states and social institutions. Goldstone ultimately ties state breakdown across Europe, China, and the Middle East to a single process: population growth leading to changes in prices, shifts in resources, and increasing social demands that overwhelm a state's ability to cope.
The societies he details shared a handful of common traits, most notably that they all relied on an agrarian economic base.1 This tied the bulk of state revenue to direct taxes on agricultural production. It also made much of state revenue, expenses, and debt subject to the swings of population trends, disease, and climate.
Eventually these large agrarian states (England, France, China, and the Ottoman Empire) experienced population increases in excess of the productivity gains of land. They raised taxes but faced a worsening fiscal crisis. Within a century populations doubled, prices and rents rose, and elite competition increased.
Poverty and Puritanism
A shift in the nature of poverty was, at least in the case of England, a contributing factor to revolution. Goldstone writes that:
In the early sixteenth century, poverty was hardly unknown. But the poor fell into readily comprehensible groups: the aged, the mentally or physically handicapped, the widow and her family. Young men of working age and families with the male head of household present were not among the poor. Over the course of the sixteenth century, however, this situation changed. As land and employment failed to keep pace with the growth of population, substantial numbers of men and their families were unable to keep above the line of dependence on charity.2
This increase in poverty overtook the state's ability to provide for its people. And it contributed to the increasing popularity of Puritanism, which had become a more revolutionary movement and developed into a crusade offered as a panacea to cure the nation's ills.
France and urban taxation
Much of the state breakdown in mid-18th-century France tied to the state's massive debt and ultimate bankruptcy. Goldstone connects this to the state's taxation patterns. France relied on agriculture for much of its tax revenue. And during the 18th century this sector of the economy was stagnant at best. During this time agricultural production fell 4% but agricultural tax rose 95%!3
Over the same years France's urban and commercial sector was booming. But the state had sold privileges to municipalities that allowed them exemptions from many taxes. With a declining return on agricultural taxes and a political limitation or commercial taxes the state turned to borrowing. That led to an increasing debt and interest payments that were untenable.
It was the 16th century after all.[↩]

Museums: A Visual Anthropology
I've always enjoyed museums. Places like the British Museum are spaces I can spend an entire day or longer. A few years ago I bought two textbook-like works about the history and structure of museums. Since then Mary Bouquet's Museums: A Visual Anthropology has sat on my shelf. But I got around to reading it on vacation last month.
While it is a textbook, it's also readable. Bouquet sets out to answer how museums gained their current prominence. And to look at what dilemmas they face and what lies ahead in their future.
It was interesting to learn that many academic disciplines were based in museums during the 19th century. It was only in the 20th century that these shifted to being based in a university.
She also does an excellent job detailing the role of a national museum; a place like the Louvre or Rijksmuseum. These emerged in the late 18th century. That's right around the time when many modern nation states were solidifying themselves. At the time these states were an unfamiliar and abstract form of organization for people. National museums helped make the state real and concrete.
Early national museums were often in large, imposing buildings. That architecture, "helped to create a visible, tangible presence and cultural identity for the nation state." The museum itself was a way of demonstrating the new state's competence. Its ability to bring back objects from abroad (which is a whole problem in itself) was a way of demonstrating early competence and organization.
Walter Isaacson's Leonardo da Vinci was a gift from a while back. I'd read and enjoyed a few of his earlier books and read the Leonardo biography while in Kauai last month. It's a worthwhile read, even if you're already familiar with Leonardo's life.
Isaacson opens by encouraging us to be wary of applying the word "genius" to Leonardo. Instead he portrays a man who was routinely human: someone who worked hard, made mistakes, and had an insatiable curiosity. His skill and imagination were practiced crafts.
The acuteness of [Leonardo's] observational skill was not some superpower he possessed. Instead, it was a product of his own effort.
The book is a 500-page detailing of Leonardo's life. And rather than even attempt to summarize, I want to instead pull out a couple things I learned.
The first is that Leonardo had the good fortune, at least retroactively speaking, of being born out of wedlock. 15th-century Italy being what it was this meant he escaped, and was even barred from, any obligation as a first-born son to follow his father's trade. His father was a successful notary. Thankfully Leonardo was not. And while Leonardo's notebooks indicate he picked up the note-taking mindset, he was free to pursue other work.
Another aspect that Isaacson covers throughout is Leonardo's approach to problem-solving. Given what he was able to create, Leonardo was a relatively uneducated man. He had a limited formal education, struggled to learn Latin and math, and for much of his life preferred his own experience over handed-down knowledge. And yet he was able to create and engineer works of remarkable complexity. Isaacson ties this success to Leonardo's ability for visual thinking. He relied far more on geometry and analogy than he did formulas and math.
Leonardo's map of Imola.
Isaacson also describes how, in the winter of 1502, a serendipitous series of events led to Leonardo, Machiavelli, and Cesare Borgia all residing in the town of Imola. As he writes:
Imagine the scene. For three months during the winter of 1502-3, as if in a historical fantasy movie, three of the most-fascinating figures of the Renaissance—a brutal and power-crazed son of a pope, a sly and amoral writer-diplomat, and a dazzling painter yearning to be an engineer—were holed up in a tiny fortified walled town that was approximately five blocks wide and eight blocks long.
As best I can tell there's one notable book about that connection. It's on my reading list and something I hope to dig into more.
A Pompeiian Horse
Even after 100+ years of excavation there are still original finds happening at Pompeii. Earlier this year archaeologists uncovered fully intact horse remains, a first for the site. Beyond the find itself the manner in which archaeologists found the horse is clever. They basically took advantage of tunnels looters had dug to accomplish two things:
Using a laser scan mapping of 200 feet of tunnels, archaeologists excavated areas encroached upon by looters to aid in the investigation while simultaneously preserving remains harmed or endangered by the looting activity.
Grand Hotel Abyss
I first read Frankfurt School theorists in college as part of a course called Education in the Matrix. Beyond being a fantastic title, the course was also one of my favorites. It looked at the way popular culture becomes part of education, and the need that creates for a critical perspective and strong media literacy. Reading The Fear of Freedom reminded me of that course and motivated me to add Grand Hotel Abyss to my list.
The book's title comes from a critique of the Frankfurt School. György Lukács claimed these theorists lived in a hotel, "equipped with every comfort, on the edge of an abyss, of nothingness, of absurdity." My view of their work is a little more favorable.
What Grand Hotel Abyss covers is a history of the main theorists involved in the Frankfurt School. These are largely German Jewish men who grew up in the early 1900s and were frequently from privileged family backgrounds. Under the Institute for Social Research they came together and created a vein of philosophy called critical theory.
All this work was funded through an endowment from Hermann Weil, a wealthy German businessman. Despite both privileged upbringings and a wealthy benefactor these theorists sought to critique and condemn capitalism and mass culture.
That set up an interesting tension, one of many ironies and contradictions within the school's work.
The Frankfurt School was thus paid for by the economic system it was established to indict, and the businessman father who bankrolled it stood for values that his son sought to destroy.
Past that, much of the theorists' work focused on the role of what Theodor Adorno and Max Horkheimer termed the culture industry. Loosely-speaking they felt mass production led to cultural output that resembles factory-produced goods. Movies, magazines, and radio programs become industrially produced and oriented toward our pleasure and entertainment. Culture focused on objects which pacified the masses. Where capitalism dominated work, the culture industry dominated leisure and:
[changed people] from productive beings to consumers, from the Marxist dream of creatively vital humans to stupefied moviegoers all giggling at the same thing.
They worried our passive cultural consumption dulled our sensibilities toward more radical social and economic change. That may not sound all that novel today, but they were writing this in the mid-1940s.
Another key theorist, Walter Benjamin, challenged what today we might term a flow state of concentration. Focusing on the productive output of thought was a mistake in his eyes. Our thoughts are valuable for more than their economic potential. And Benjamin's interest, particularly when it came to art, was in the disruptive, dissonant, and absent-minded nature of thought.
Capitalism and culture were the two predominant themes to this work. And the interplay between the two drew much of the theorists' attention. To them we live in a world where we have the freedom to choose what is always the same. Mass production leads to mass, passive consumption of what is increasingly identical. Their writing is not always uplifting and can be gloomy. But they sought to understand and to challenge popular culture and our relation to it.
All-in-all the book's an accessible overview of what's my favorite strain of philosophy. It's not overly academic and if you enjoy history surveys you'll likely enjoy reading it.
Inventing the Individual
While I was in Singapore last month I spent the better part of an afternoon browsing the Kinokuniya bookstore. One of the books that stood out to me was Larry Siedentop's Inventing the Individual. It's subtitle, The Origins of Western Liberalism, frames the focus on the book.
Part of what I find engaging about books like this is how they challenge things you presume to be first principles. It's why I enjoyed so much of the reading, if not always the classes, in college. In this case Siedentop tells a history that stretches from ancient Greece to the Renaissance. Throughout he shows how the modern notion of an individual was built through centuries of change.
While much of the book focuses on Christianity and the Catholic church it does so in a historical, rather than religious, sense. A theology book it is, thankfully, not.
It's helpful to understand that for ancient Greeks and Romans the starting point of identity was not the self. Individualism was not how society centered itself. Instead the center of power, prestige, and citizenship was the family. And prime amidst that was the father.
The ancient family was, in many ways, a church unto itself. The father represented all his ancestors and served a role that was one part priest and one part magistrate. Legislation tended to stop at the property of the family while the eldest son inherited the wealth, power, and of course ancestors of his father.
This started to shift during the later years of the BC era. It was centuries, though, before we got to the type of individualism that informed the political or artistic movements of the 1400s and onward.
There are three things that most stood out to me when reading back over my notes on the book. They're ideological shifts that made sense as soon as I read them, but ones I'd never thought of in such a clear way as Siedentop puts it.
Inherited Power
As mentioned above, family and inheritance played a large role in ancient identity and power. That set a foundation in which leadership, wealth, and power were hereditary. The assumption for much of how society operated was that inequality was natural and people had natural roles to fill. Even something as basic to us as the exercise of reason was presumed to be only possessed by a few.
The early Christian church had a very different starting assumption. For them the focus was on equality. It was vital to the faith that all souls could have a relationship with God. So they needed to subvert the established, ancient societal order.
But Christian priests, particularly in later years, had a lot of local power. The church needed to ensure that didn't become hereditary local power and wealth. Otherwise priests, and the inequality surrounding their position and family, would undercut the message of The Bible. By disallowing marriage and procreation among the clergy the church was also able to ensure power and authority remained in the hands of the church itself rather than in bloodlines. They preserved a fundamental assumption of equality and avoided the trappings of inherited power.
When your society is built around inherited wealth and power work comes to take on an interesting meaning. When wealth is inherited work can become something that's disregarded. It's what those without strong families have to do. It's not necessarily a value in itself.
Monasticism helped shift this narrative and rehabilitate work. It made work and labor less servile and gave it a renewed dignity. The early monks felt that personal salvation was a laborious, lifetime quest. And in many ways they laid the groundwork for later ideas like the Protestant work ethic.
Reason and Rationality
From 1000 to 1300 the papacy initiated a host of changes that were long underestimated but, at their core, were revolutionary. One of those that Siedentop emphasizes is the democratization of reason. For Greeks and Romans, Reason (often personified by the god Apollo) was something that used people; it was not evenly distributed in society nor was rationality thought to be available to all.
By the twelfth century reason began to lose this aristocratic heritage. It became seen as an attribute of any individual. And, notably for the church, it enabled people to build a personal relationship with a deity rather than an ancient and tribal one. The democratization served the church's immediate need as it enabled individuals to investigate their inner relationship with God. Over time this shift and movement of equality had far-reaching impact.
There's more that I took away from the book (I have around 2,500 words worth of notes). But those are the three historical shifts I hope to remember and that I wanted to share.
Next on my reading list is Erich Fromm's The Fear of Freedom, a book that also focuses on individuals. I'll have reading notes for that posted shortly.

Born February 7, 1962, in Tulsa, Garth Brooks is celebrating his 57th birthday today. With six of seven traditional planets in Aquarius, Garth IS the Aquarius man! Guys like this are slightly wacky, often genius types, who seem to know and get along with almost everyone. Garth achieved the status of best paid and most loved musician in history. Those are some big achievements, and I'm curious about what his birth chart might indicate about his wealth and fame.
Fame and fortune are indicated by the 10th house in a chart and a Pisces Moon occupies the 10th in Garth's chart. The Moon indicates your strongest emotional attachments, security needs, emotional expression, intuition, and how you want to be nurtured. The Moon in Pisces is sensitive, caring, and soulful.
Those who are born under a Pisces Moon are often highly creative and intuitive. Their sensitivity to others can be problematic if they are around negative people and don't know how to protect themselves from the negativity. In traditional astrology, Jupiter rules Pisces and any planets in Jupiter's house and under his rulership must perform according to Jupiter's rules. It would be like you being a visitor in someone's house. You'd still by you, but what you do and how you do things would be different than if you were staying in your own home. The Moon in this chart still indicates emotions, intuition, etc., and it performs those functions in a Jupiterian style: by being inclusive, tolerant, outgoing, and principled.
Jupiter is next door in the 9th Aquarius house. It's a VERY BUSY house, too, because the Sun, Venus, Mercury, Mars, and Saturn are also there. Jupiter in Aquarius is tolerant and values all people equally (he gets along with most people), is an independent thinker, believes in humanitarian causes, and is a good leader (many people benefit from Garth's leadership). The 9th house is associated with the element of fire; the spirit of the law, morals, beliefs, religion, philosophy, and ethical behaviors. There can be little question that what drives Garth Brooks are his 9th house planets. Every action he takes, every thought he thinks emanates from what he believes is right and just.
Jupiter in the 9th indicates an appreciation for learning, adventure, and adventure. People with this placement always have a clearly defined code of ethics from which they don't waver, and they have little tolerance for those who don't. When America's Got Talent star Michael Ketterer was arrested for domestic violence in 2018 and charged with a felony, Garth stopped sharing the stage with him.
The intuitive, creative Pisces Moon in the 10th must provide for Garth's emotional expression and his emotional need to achieve fame and fortune via the 9th house Aquarian Jupiter. So, once again, everything Garth does points back to the core of who, what, and why he does what he does: his beliefs, philosophy, morals, and ethics. I'm not suggesting he IS always right and just, but I doubt that he ever strays from what he believes. Whether or not others agree with him is their problem, not his.
Garth's 2nd house is in the sign Cancer, and Cancer is ruled by the Moon. When Cancer is in the 2nd, emotional security is directly linked to material resources—money, investments, home ownership, and possessions. He must acquire those things for himself and his family through the 10th house (where the Moon is located). Garth is well-known for his astute and focused business acumen. He's INTUITIVELY smart, diligent, focused, and highly successful.
The 6th house in Garth's chart is in Scorpio, which is traditionally ruled by Mars. Mars is this chart is located up in the 9th with five other planets. The sign Scorpio is associated with strong drives that can become obsessive and/or extreme, a take-charge attitude, and a preference for solo control.
In an interview with Rare Country, Garth shared some advice he got from his own parents: "Be yourself, dream big, work hard." Based on what I see in his chart, Garth Brooks can be no one but himself: popular, successful, and driven to acquire emotional security through wealth that he created with his own hard work and high standards for living life.
Imagine being on a beach or walking along a boardwalk in a coastal city or sipping tall, cool drinks in the shade of an umbrella under a summery blue sky. Billowing, soft white clouds float overhead. Birds flit from tree to tree and occasionally drop to the ground by your feet in search of sweet crumbs that drop from your table. Imagine feeling a warm, soft breeze touching you. And the soft air carries from from somewhere nearby, the sound of your favorite music.
That is the constant energy joy, abundance, and inspiration that Venus, Jupiter, and Neptune are flowing to us as they align in an easy trine in the water signs. Venus is visiting in Cancer, Jupiter is in Scorpio, and Neptune is floating ever-so-slowly through Pisces.
We have freewill to use the energies available to us as the planets align with one another. They give. We receive. We, in turn, give to others. The flow of receiving and giving, and receiving and giving is constant. It's possible to feel inspired and let your imagination soar, or to feel expansive and share your joy and goodwill with those you meet. You can feel connected to this creative universe and let your thoughts connect you with the things and the people you enjoy.
If habits of thought are causing you to feel something less than joy, appreciation, and abundance, know that those things are free to you as well. You may have to look in a different direction to gain a different perspective. Remember that you receive and perceive what you look for and look at. Reach for a better thought.

News: Man hospitalized after ATV accident at Browns Lake in Burlington
RACINE COUNTY, WI — A 63-year-old man was critically injured last Friday afternoon in an ATV crash at Browns Lake in Burlington, according to FOX6 Milwaukee.
The incident occurred about 200 yards west of the lake's Cedar Park Beach on January 14 at approximately 3:45 p.m.
A preliminary investigation indicates the operator of the ATV lost control, causing the vehicle to overturn.
The Racine County Sheriff's Office said the man was found lying unconscious on the ice and turning blue. Authorities did not confirm whether the victim was the driver or a passenger in the ATV.
Sheriff's deputies and first responders from Burlington and Rochester applied life-saving measures and treatment at the scene. The victim was initially transported to a hospital but then soon airlifted to a regional trauma center.
An investigation by the RCSO and Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources remains ongoing, but reckless operation and intoxication are suspected factors in the crash.

Afghan wheelchair basketball team first to play tourney on foreign shores
The month of May 2014, was a benchmark in the lives of a handful of young men from Afghanistan who comprise the nationalwheelchair basketballteam. Thesemen who have been affected physically by disease, disaster or conflict and have been rehabilitated by the ICRC — had gone to Italy at the invitation of Italian sports clubBriantea84 to play in a series of matches between 22-29 May.

The Afghan players, who are now back home after winning two of the nine matches they played in Italy, are still hung-over with the excitement of their visit to the foreign country and the headiness of having made history by being the first Afghan wheelchair basketball team to play abroad.
For them, the trip to Italy was a celebration of their victory over the odds life has faced them with. Each day was exhilarating. On landing in Italy, the Afghan team were met by a pack of journalists and photographers representing local and international media. They even swam in the sea for the first time.
They played against the Italian Under-22 National Team, and a select team made up of players from Italy's top professional division. And they won two matches out of the nine they played. The players who make up the national team are from different parts of Afghanistan, but they speak in one voice when they say how much it means to them to be ambassadors for their country and for disabled people.
The national basketball team, which was created in 2013 under the aegis of the Afghanistan Paralympic Committee, had been invited by Briantea84 of Cantù near Milan, the winner of the 2012-13 Italian League. The project is a cooperation between the Afghanistan Paralympic Committee and the ICRC, which has been instrumental in facilitating the players' training. Since 2010, wheelchair basketball players from the ICRC's orthopaedic centres in Mazar, Herat and Kabul in Afghanistan, together with players from Maimana, have been trained for some weeks every year by a US professional basketball coach, Jess Markt, himself in a wheelchair.
In India, too, the ICRC's Physical Rehabilitation Programme contributes to the social reintegration of people with disabilities into society by providing them with appropriate physical rehabilitation care. Partners of the ICRC working for disabled people have been empowered by the organisation to provide quality services including the development of sustainable resources. The ICRC's Physical Rehabilitation Programme is now being shaped to enhance the accessibility of disabled people to affordable treatment by utilizing appropriate technology. The ICRC implements projects through these activities as per the priority of the Department of Disability Affairs Ministry of Social Justice and Empowerment, Government of India.
The Afghanistan Wheelchair Basketball team gathers together before the start of the match. @ICRC

Chronicle of violence: Turkey's year of devastating terrorist attacks (VIDEOS)
FILE PHOTO: Emergency workers work at the explosion site in Ankara, Turkey March 13, 2016 © Tumay Berkin © Reuters
The New Year's shooting spree that left at least 39 people dead at a crowded Istanbul night club is just the latest in a wave of sporadic terrorist attacks, particularly suicide blasts, which have rocked Turkey throughout the past 12 months.
As many as 39 people, including 15 or 16 foreigners, were killed and dozens of others were injured when at least one gunman opened fire in one of Istanbul's most popular night clubs, Reina, just one hour into the new year. "A terrorist with a long-range weapon... brutally and savagely carried out this incident by firing bullets at innocent people who were there solely to celebrate the New Year and have fun," Istanbul's governor, Vasip Şahin, told the media at the scene of the attack.

The historic Amphitheater in Ottawa Park was WPA constructed in 1935-1936. It is located on a sloping piece of ground surrounded by trees in a bird sanctuary section of the park. The 500 tons of stone came from a quarry near Whitehouse. The small scrubs and trees planted then are now nearly 100 feet tall! Over the years the seating area has been rebuilt, a handicap accessible ramp, a stage with backdrops, power, and a storage facility added. Holding about 750 people, it is the only permanent venue for free open air concerts in this area.
Since it opened the Amphitheater has been used for church services, Broadway productions, Shakespeare plays, Magic shows, and lots of live music. Free summer concerts have been held since at least 1963. Your Park Board sponsors these annual concerts. See below, and the Calendar tab for more details.
In 2014, we received a NatureWorks grant to start restoring the amphitheater. In 2016 the 1st phase (drainage rebuild) was completed. A grant for the 2nd phase has been submitted. This is all part of a 5 year comprehensive plan created for the Board by UT's 2014 Senior Civil Engineering students.
