It feels a little bit odd to be sitting here writing about our Christmas this year, mostly because it feels like it's been one of the fastest years yet! When I look back across my Instagram page at our photos from the year I can see that we've jam packed the year full of fun and that we've made some wonderful memories together, but I swear it feels like we only just celebrated New years Day a few months ago and that paddling pool days in the garden in the summer time were not that long ago?

Frederick Harry Pitts, Lorena Lombardozzi and Neil Warner warn that:

Basic income may not be the ideal response to automation and technological unemployment envisaged by its proponents. In fact, it risks embalming our current economy defined by low-skilled, low-paid, and unrewarding work for longer than would otherwise be the case

They support this claim by asserting that the Speenhamland System was a type of basic income and then point out how the system failed. Читать дальше...

It's an indelible part of history. On June 7 in 1893, a young lawyer from India was travelling from Durban to Pretoria for work. He bought a first class ticked and got himself a seat in the first class compartment. A European entered the apartment and upon seeing the young man who looked like a "coolie", called the railway authorities and asked that he be removed from the compartment.  The Indian man refused. For this protest, he was thrown off the train with his bag and baggage at Pietermaritzburg railway station.

This posting will complete our tour of wonderful Prague. I must apologize to SWF for not showing any sky today; but, since it is #6 in the series, I am taking the liberty of showing them.
The morning of our last day began with an exploration of the Museum of Modern Art. This mirror-like wall near the entrance is difficult to describe. At first glance, I thought that the shimmering reflections was due to water running down the wall surface. But, actually, if I heard it correctly, huge fans were blowing air behind and against it.

Chess tournaments, for better or worse, don't usually command international headlines. Do you remember those matches in 2013  ~ it was the World Chess Championship between reigning world champion Viswanathan Anand and challenger Magnus Carlsen, to determine the 2013 World Chess Champion, held from 9 to 22 Nov 2013 in Chennai, India, under the auspices of FIDE (the World Chess Federation).  Carlsen won the match 6½–3½ after ten of the twelve scheduled games, becoming the new world chess champion.

I love shooting into the sun, and I was certainly doing that here. It was late afternoon – in the topiary garden at Longwood Gardens outside of Philadelphia – and the sun was low in the sky. I was shooting that lion, one of a pair. I have no idea what I was thinking when I took this shot. Probably something like, WOW! the SUN, the LION” And CLICK, it was done. ...

Traveling is one of my favorite things to do, but I often tend to pile on a few pounds due to eating my way around the new town or city! I’ve found the perfect solution: going on a bike vacation. Not only do you save money using a bicycle over public transport, but it’s also an excellent way to keep fit and to see more of a place than you can from a bus or train. If you’re in the market for a new bike, why not check out a custom beach cruiser or the womens beach cruiser ...

So, the Peter Capaldi era is officially over. "Twice Upon a Time," which premiered on BBC and BBC America Christmas night and streamed into select theaters in North America last night, saw the elderly Doctor regenerate into Jodie Whittaker, who got all of two words ("Oh, brilliant") before she was tossed straight out of an exploding Tardis and dropped to Earth. The reviews for the episode have been mixed-to-positive:

What I love most about New York, is the diversity of people and cultures that mix and mingle without even thinking twice about it. Walking down the street, you are more likely to hear any one of a large array of foreign languages than you are to hear English. This could include Chinese, Indian, Russian, German, Hebrew, Arabic, Portuguese, Urdu…. You name it and you’ll probably hear it. And each group brings with it its own culture and history and foods that make New York such a fun place to ...

I have been quiet here on my blog of late.
Quiet because what I have been dealing with the last almost 8 weekshas been much too painful to share.
It has been a pain so deep
I literally thought I would loose my mind.

But now not sharing it seems dishonest.Like I am carrying a shameandit feels paralyzing and stifling.Like I can't break through of the ugly, ugly truth.
That my silence makes me have to
 pretend to be
someone
I no longer am.

This past summer, I traveled with Benita and The Urchins (and a good bit of Benita's family) to the great state of Hawaii for a few days on Oahu and then a cruise to several of the other islands. While out for an excursion on the island, we found ourselves a bit peckish, so on the trip back to our hotel in Honolulu, we stopped at a roadside stand for a bite to eat. Little did we realize that what we had stumbled upon was Mike's Huli Chicken, a renowned stop noted by Guy Fieri on his show ...
