Gilmore Girls: A Year in the Life | Official Trailer [HD] | Netflix

(shock) a very sweet treat (no trick)






This show may be my addiction, a good one, a long-term one, and I may need therapy for it, (When it ended the last time I swore like a sailor) ...I was living in Connecticut at the start of this TV show... they are a fast talking mom-daughter team - I laughed and cried (repeat) and it spoke to me...BOOM!

Monday Mystery

Native Artists of North America
Newark Museum, Newark, NJ/USA
Opening: October 22, 2016

This fall, the Newark Museum will unveil its newly redesigned and reinterpreted Native American galleries. Featuring more than 100 rarely exhibited objects from throughout the United States and Canada, Native Artists of North America will showcase an exciting selection of works from the permanent collection, dating from the early 19th century to the present, including many objects never before exhibited.

This permanent installation celebrates the great diversity of styles, media and creativity of Native artists and places them in the broader context of American art. Among the works on view will be expertly woven Pomo baskets, exquisite hand-made items of dress from across the continent, and Southwestern pottery and textiles.  Other highlights will include works by the Haida master carver Charles Edenshaw and Pueblo painters Fred Kabotie, Tonita Peña and Awa Tsireh. Additional works by contemporary Native American artists will be installed in adjacent galleries, including recent acquisitions by Jeffrey Gibson and Preston Singletary.
Collaboratively curated by a team of Native American artists and scholars from around the country, Native Artists of North America brings together the expertise and talent of many leading specialists in the field of Native American art. By placing these reinterpreted collections in close proximity to Newark’s American galleries, the Newark Museum underscores the importance of Native American art as American Art, and celebrates the ingenuity and creativity of Native artists past and present.

The mystery are the words RARELY EXHIBITED  or never before- that concerns me. BOOM!

I can't draw that well


they are alive

Indeed, they are alive...  the stones were used to store energy from the dancing and ceremonies that happened within the Circle over a very long period of time. In that sense they are now still a direct and ongoing bridge between us today and the those ancestors who came before.
I talk about this more in Aontacht, the global magazine of the Druidic Dawn...in the From the Desk section of the issue on Ritual and the Magic Circle

could I love him more?

Bill Murray? Yeah, him. I love his work, and him.
WATCH
Bill Murray was awarded the Mark Twain Prize for American Humor during an all-star fete at Washington, D.C.'s Kennedy Center, with friends and peers like David Letterman, Steve Martin, Jimmy Kimmel, Miley Cyrus, Aziz Ansari and Ghostbusters co-star Sigourney Weaver paying tribute to the actor.

THIS GUY ROCKS!

What would life be like without them?

Have you ever tried to learn more about some incredible thing, only to be frustrated by incomprehensible jargon?  Randall Munroe is here to help.  In Thing Explainer, he uses line drawings and only the thousand (or, rather, “ten hundred”) most common words to provide simple explanations for some of the most interesting stuff there is, including:

  • food-heating radio boxes (microwaves)
  • tall roads (bridges)
  • computer buildings (datacenters)
  • the shared space house (the International Space Station)
  • the other worlds around the sun (the solar system)
  • the big flat rocks we live on (tectonic plates)
  • the pieces everything is made of (the periodic table)
  • planes with turning wings (helicopters)
  • boxes that make clothes smell better (washers and dryers)
  • the bags of stuff inside you (cells)

How do these things work? Where do they come from? What would life be like without them? And what would happen if we opened them up, heated them up, cooled them down, pointed them in a different direction, or pressed this button? In Thing Explainer, Munroe gives us the answers to these questions and so many more. Funny, interesting, and always understandable, this book is for anyone—age 5 to 105—who has ever wondered how things work, and why.
