On her first day of work, Betony met a cute scientist called Eris. He was a little shy and awkward at first, but they found common ground theorizing about aliens. Betony loves nerdy boys, and he definitely left an impression.

Late November, 1893

𝐷𝑒𝑎𝑟 𝐸𝑣𝑎,

My nephew grows older by the day, it sounds. I will come to visit him in the summer when my classes are over and spoil him rotten; you have been warned.

Classes seem to fly by me. I have learned so much yet so little in my time at Foxbury. With the addition of a few friends I have made, the year goes by even faster. In no time I will have graduated and be at the beginning of my career! Well, at least until Father retires, which I do not see happening in the near future.

Speaking of our father, he has seen better days. I am sure you heard of the market crash earlier this year. It appears that it hit Father pretty hard, as he lost millions in the banks. He is still more wealthy than most, and continues to pay my tuition for college, but I fear another hit like that and he could lose it all. Perhaps then it would be time for my time to come, to lead his company into a new century.

I hope you and Walter are well, and of course Salvatore. I send my warmest wishes to them all. Have a happy Winterfest.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY to Casey Affleck, swamp pop singer Rod Bernard, Sid Bernstein, Joe Besser, Cantinflas, John Cazale, Kid Creole, Del The Funky Homosapien,  Cecil B. DeMille, Leslie Duncan, George Hamilton, Roy Hay, Heintje, Mark Knopfler, Greg Langston (The Next, No Alternative), Ron Mael, Tiny McCloud, Pat Metheny, Sir Mix-a-Lot, Alexei Nikolaevich, Peter Ostroushko, Buck Owens, Marjorie Reynolds, Theodore Scaife, Erwin Alexander Schrödinger, Lakeith Stanfield, Matt Thiessen (Reliant K), Stefanos Tsitsipas, Mladen Vukic, Porter Wagoner, Deborah Walley, Wednesday 13, Jane Wyatt, and recording artist, singer-songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist Derrek Van Eaton. 

Classic rock-philes and deep Beatles fans will recognize him from the brother band Lon & Derrek Van Eaton. Prior to their association with Apple Records (the record label created by The Beatles), they were part of the eccentric New York-based folk rock band Jacob’s Creek. They shared a studio with Simon & Garfunkel and released one album on Columbia in 1969. Two years later, John Lennon and George Harrison “discovered” them as a brother-act duo and signed them to Apple. The Van Eaton’s music blended urban folk and dreamy rock with a blues-gospel undercurrent, which perfectly coincided with the sounds of Badfinger and latter-day Beatles. The Van Eaton’s excellent BROTHER album was co-produced by George with Klaus Voorman. The Van Eatons toured the USA to promote BROTHER. Their 1972 tour brought them to where I was living in Huntingdon PA, where they played Ellis Hall at Juniata College (I stood listening from outside, a lad with no ticket money).  

The BROTHER album launched a long association with George, Ringo Starr, Harry Nilsson, and other travelers in the Apple/Beatle legacy that unfolded in the 1970s. Then the Van Eatons became studio session players favored by producer Richard Perry, who hired them for recordings with Art Garfunkel, Martha Reeves, and Carly Simon. Perry also produced the Van Eaton’s 1975 WHO DO YOU OUT DO album. Following that era, the brothers created a non-profit film and music company called Imagine a Better World. 

The Van Eaton brothers since have released sporadic works (duo and solo), notably their acclaimed 1996 cover of “Apple of my Eye” on the COME & GET IT Badfinger tribute album. In 2013 they issued a career-spanning anthology with new recordings with contributions from Ringo Starr, Jim Keltner, Klaus Voormann, and Gary Wright, and the Van Eatons are still active in musical and spiritual pursuits. 

Some years ago I met Derrek some years ago at church we were both attending in Pennsylvania (where I picked his brains about that 1972 concert I heard but couldn’t see), and the last time we crossed paths was at a Monkees concert in Denver in 2011. Even in passive meet-ups I can see the creative spark in Derrek’s eyes. Here’s one of my favorite Van Eaton cuts “Sun Song” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T5VSJmb2VI0...Meanwhile, HB DVE and thank you for your years of remarkable creativity and soul.

FAST FACTS

grew up in philly and moved to nyc for school

very nerdy

doesn't like to be disturbed when working

highly intelligent and was looking for opportunity to work on experiments without...legality

worked for anunnaki pharmaceuticals after graduating with his phd and then stoneage

left stoneage for the hospital to 'do more good' but it was more of a front and to get away from the watchful eyes

does try to use his job to keep and eye on things and do what's needed for the terrors, but also serves as repentance for his crimes

joined the terrors because of the freedom they could offer for his mind and experiments

doesn't care too much about the state of his soul - more worried about the legacy of his work

Stereo Embers The Podcast: Stephen Fredette (Scruffy The Cat)

Thursdays 2pm-3pm EST 11pm-12pm PDT 7pm-8pm BST bombshellradio.com stereoembersmagazine.com Stereo Embers Magazine #StereoEmbers, #podcast, #RadioShow, #AlexGreen, #Nowplaying, #BombshellRadio, #StereoEmbersThePodcast Repeats Fridays 1am EST and Sundays 11am EST "Boom Boom Boom Bingo" Scruffy The Cat dominated the College Rock scene of the late '80s with a run of fabulous albums like Tiny Days and Moons of Jupiter, plus two stellar EPs High Octane Revival and Boom Boom Boom Bingo. If you don't have these four releases-get them. They're the most perfect blasts of rootsy indie pop you'll ever hear. The six member Boston outfit, which formed in '83 lasted just under a decade, breaking up in 1990. Over the course of their career they went Top 5 on the CMJ College Radio Charts, were played on MTV's 120 minutes, were critically lauded by pretty much everyone, including the Village Voice and The Chicago Tribune, cracked the Billboard Top 200 and toured with Los Lobos, The Replacements and Yo La Tengo. The six member Scruffy personnel consisted of Charlie Chesterman, Stephen Fredette, MacPaul Stanfield, Randall Lee Gibson IV, Stona Fitch and Burns Stanfield. Omnivore put out two great anthologies that celebrate the band's legacy and as far as alums go, Scruffy is down two men with the deaths of Chesterman and Gibson, but the music remains and it sounds as fresh as ever. As for Stephen Fredette, he's a marvelous and accomplished artist who did all the Scruffy covers, and he just had his first gallery show in the Boston area. And he's been working on some songs.... www.scruffythecat.com (http://www.scruffythecat.com) www.stereoembersmagazine.com (http://www.stereoembersmagazine.com) www.bombshellradio.com www.alexgreenbooks.com Stereo Embers Twitter: @emberseditor IG: @emberspodcast Email: editor@stereoembersmagazine.com (mailto:editor@stereoembersmagazine.com) Read the full article

Name: Jazmine "Jazz" Markham Species: Human (Non-powered) Occupation: Scribe Age: 29 Years Old Played By: Meek Face Claim: LaKeith Stanfield

"No, I don't take this seriously at all. What’s your point?."

TW: Racism

“Jazz” was born in a small Texas town in the early 90’s to a prizefighter for a father and an accountant for a Mother. His parents divorced as he was still breastfeeding and he lived with his mother. He never knew any different so not having his father around didn’t bother him much.   He is the great-grandson of comedian “Pigmeat” Markham. The legacy of Pigmeat was… “controversial” to say the least. It was a legacy that Jazz wished he could forget about. But how he felt about his great-grandfather wasn’t important to his parents and from an early age it was stressed to him that he ought to be a comedian. He didn’t care too much for being funny and inevitably being compared to his Great-Grandfather. He would rather follow in his father's prizefighting footsteps. His father also had quite the reputation of being a “Ladies man”. “Socializing” with so many women, just like his father, became his main focus; second only to boxing. His main goals in life became as toxic as his father and great-grandfather before him. Dating as many women as possible without regard to their emotions or humanity; and knocking out anyone who stood in his way. It was apparent from an early age that he wasn’t going down the path of a good person. While most kids were playing with trading cards he was doing his best to convince a girl to be his girlfriend. And if she said she had a boyfriend he’d find him and mash his face into the dirt.  As he grew older his toxicity grew with him. His ego grew as big as a mountain. After graduating high school with an undefeated amateur boxing record he decided to forgo the Olympic trials and become a professional fighter. He figured it would be the easiest way to continue meeting more women to date. The money he earned hardly concerned him beyond using it to woo another woman every week. After a string of 1st round KO wins he made the ill-advised decision to accept a fight against an opponent that was far too experienced and more than a couple weight classes above him. He left the ring battered, humiliated, and unconscious on a stretcher. He vowed to fight again however, before he could step into the ring again the news of a broken hand suffered in his last fight not healing properly stopped his career in its tracks.  After a bit of therapy he discovered his knack for being incredibly funny. He had made people laugh before but now it felt different. He began going to open mics and finding spots in vaudeville shows to practice. He was so heavily consumed by comedy that his goals of becoming a prolific ladies man faded into the background. He accepted what he saw as fate and began a career as a comedian and comedy writer. Before long he grew weary of the confines of his home and decided to head out on a road trip to find a new place to call home. He drove all over the country but eventually settled on the town of Wicked’s Rest. A town he had never heard of but the suspiciously low rent of a cottage near some quiet woods made him decide to give it a try. Besides, he figured the place could use a laugh or two and the road trip had very nearly depleted his funds.  The town was a bit eerie and whispers of fairies and monsters made him chuckle. He met a sexy, spooky local at a coffee shop for what he assumed would be a date. They talked to Jazz non-stop about magical creatures and in an attempt to relate Jazz pulled what knowledge he had about fae out of his butt. He was convincing enough that after a few days he was contacted by someone who called themselves a “Scribe”. They wanted Jazz to be a Scribe as well but he wasn’t interested. At least he wasn’t until they told him the salary and benefits. Writing about Halloween monsters as if they were real? Sounded like an easy enough gig he thought. But everyone talking about these creatures as if they were real was a bit off-putting. But hey, it would pay the rent right? He’d lied to get jobs before but being an expert on “pixies” may have been a step too far.

Character Facts:

Personality: Playful, dishonest, insensitive, flirtatious, dysphoric, loquacious, non-committal, lazy

An accomplished amateur boxer but a broken hand derailed his career shortly after turning professional.

Great-Grandson of late comedian "Pigmeat" Markham.

Would rather make someone laugh than have a fight.

Very tough and physically strong (still very much a non-powered human).

Конец прыжка в 3 года

В эти серые и уже по-зимнему холодные дни, Коул собрал всех и утащил в аквапарк восполнять гормоны столь необходимого счастья. К слову, блондин устав спорить с женой просто взял и нанял няню.

September 9th 1758 saw the birth of Alexander Nasmyth, the Scottish painter and architect. Born in Edinburgh, Nasmyth studied at the Royal High School and the Trustees’ Academy under Alexander Runciman, and, having been apprenticed as an heraldic painter to a coachbuilder at the age of sixteen he attracted the attention of Allan Ramsay, who took the young man with him to London, and employed him upon the subordinate portions of his works. Nasmyth returned to Edinburgh in 1778, and was soon largely patronized as a portrait painter. He also assisted Patrick Miller of Dalswinton, as draughtsman, in his mechanical researches and experiments; and, this gentleman having generously offered the painter a loan to enable him to pursue his studies abroad, he left in 1782 for Italy, where he spent two years. Back in Scotland he spent more time on Landscapes, eventually abandoning portrait work in 1792, but not before he completed a portrait of his good friend Robert Burns, the poet, which in now on view in the Scottish National Gallery. His landscapes are all of actual places, and usually contain an architectural feature often seen across water, the distance bathed in mist, for example ‘Lugar Water’ and ‘Loch Tay with Kenmore Bridge’. A fine foreign view is the ‘Ponte Molle on the Sylvan Side of Rome’. In the 1820s he turned his attention to Edinburgh street scenes, which are some of my favourite works, recording fashions, daily activity and architecture, such as ‘Princes Street, with the Royal Institution Building under Construction’, ‘Edinburgh with the High Street and Lawnmarket’ and its companion ‘Shipping at Leith’. His painting of Calton Gaol and the famous view beyond is stunning. Some works were painted to illustrate the effects that new buildings would have on an area, such as ‘Inverary from the Sea’, painted for the Duke of Argyll to show the setting a proposed lighthouse. In his landscapes he blended classical elements with naturalistic observation and became the founder of the Scottish landscape tradition, influencing many younger painters. He established a landscape school at his home at 47 York Place in Edinburgh. As a teacher he was highly innovative in insisting his pupils draw from real scenes in the open air, rather than simply reproduce existing drawings or paintings. His pupils included David Wilkie, David Roberts and Clarkson Stanfield. He also developed a sideline in architecture, being responsible for the Dean Bridge in Edinburgh and the temple-like structure atop St Bernard’s Well in Stockbridge. When Alexander Nasmyth died, at home, in Edinburgh in 1840, he left a significant legacy in the form of his portraits and landscapes, and in the careers of those he had taught.

Pics are of the artist and some of his work, a view of Edinburgh from the West, Tantallon Castle, A scenne fro Heart of Midlothian, and ofcourse, hisportrait of the poet Robert Burns.

AN: This day is going to be 7-9 posts, the brunch alone will be 3 of them. 😵‍💫 There will be 4 posts this week (M-Th) and 3 next week (Tu-Th). If I’m needed I’ll post one Friday next week. Also, after the NYE party posts, there will probably be a short break. That’s where I was initially planning to pause before my computer decided to die. It all depends on how productive my brain decides it’s going to be.

April, 1892

Evaline wrote back to her brother almost immediately, despite what her husband had thought. Walter voiced that her family shouldn’t even be considered given what happened surrounding their marriage. However, Evaline couldn’t deny her brother, who didn’t have much of a choice under her father’s authoritarian rule. Besides, he was not the one to forgo speaking to her.

Irving arrived early in the day so Walter would not know of his visit. Upon seeing her brother for the first time in years, Evaline threw her arms around him and sobbed into his shoulder. She loved her dear brother so deeply, and she was happy that he was finally meeting Salvatore.

The babe was hesitant at first upon meeting a new person, as overly cautious as he was, but Salvatore soon warmed up to his uncle. Before long he was smiling and cooing at Irving, whose heart simply melted at the sight. Evaline could tell that Irving would be a terrific uncle. 

After the excitement settled down, the two siblings began to speak of the current news. Their Father was traveling to expand his railroad business further up north, and hoped his son would join him after college. Irving wasn’t interested in taking over the family business but found no other reason not to, especially after what happened to Evaline.

Irving’s visit was short but sweet. He made promises to try and visit more in the future, to be more involved in his sister’s life now that he was a young man. Though Evaline didn’t want to hold him to any promises, she secretly wished he would keep it.
