Taking Liberty with the arts in a way that celebrates us all

Injection of culture: Rachel Gadsden and Freddie Meyers performed TransHuman Embodiment and Beyond, one of the highlights of the Liberty Festival KEN TOWL takes hope, and much joy, from last week’s Liberty Festival, where deaf, disabled and neurodivergent artists injected some much-needed culture into the borough.

Jasmine Host has been missing since September 2017. The then-29-year-old lived in a residence in Gadsden, Alabama with her husband Mark Host, their housemate, Rachel Sears, and several young children. Jasmine, Mark, Rachel, and the children were all planning to move to Dawson Springs, Kentucky prior to Jasmine's disappearance.

According to reports, Jasmine was last seen in the Gadsden residence on Noccalula Drive on the evening of September 15th, 2017. The members of the household planned to make their move to Kentucky the following morning. However, when the next morning arrived, Jasmine was gone. She has never been seen or heard from again.

Mark, Rachel, and the children continued with the move to Kentucky, without Jasmine. This obviously raises suspicions about both Mark and Rachel, but they have denied involvement in Jasmine's disappearance. Various reports state that Jasmine's relationship with Mark was volatile, which raises even more suspicions about him. Still, no arrests have ever been made in relation to Jasmine's disappearance.

Police have released very little information about Jasmine's case, but there has been a lot of speculation on social media about what might have happened. Inevitably, many people suspect that Mark and Rachel are responsible for Jasmine's disappearance. The two of them have since reportedly been arrested on unrelated charges, but they have still yet to be publicly identified as suspects in Jasmine's case.

Jasmine remains missing today. There is a $5000 reward for anyone with information that could lead to Jasmine's whereabouts. If you have any valuable information, please submit a tip.

MIXED EMOTIONS

MIXED EMOTIONS - https://keywestlou.com/mixed-emotions/I have been a Syracuse fan since the first day I entered law school at Syracuse University in 1957. Not true blue, true orange. It has been 65 years. I have supported every football coach, and Jim Boeheim of course, through thick and thin. Good and bad. More bad than good. Never even thought a coach should be fired. Now for the first time, I do. Dino Babers as the football coach. Even when Babers went 1-10, I did not speak ill of him. My school, my team, my coach. This season began a great one 6-0. Clemson last week the first loss. Could have been a Syracuse victory. Babers screwed up a few times. I called him on it. No one is perfect, however. Syracuse should have beat the pants off Notre Dame yesterday. Instead, Notre Dame took Syracuse to the cleaners 41-24. Against Clemson, Babers ran Tucker 5 times. Yesterday, he began the game by running Tucker multiple times. Even forgot to let Schrader pass after his first one that was intercepted. The Syracuse defense has been stellar all season. Not yesterday. Notre Dame is known for its running game. Straight up the middle. Our defensive line could not stop them. Did not make sense. Syracuse should have been prepared for them. Why wasn't it? Schrader passing was off in the first half. Because of the injury which kept him out of the game in the second half? I don't know. I do know there is one major passing problem. Schrader likes to pass to one person.....Gadsden. Opposing teams know it. Double and triple team Gadsden as he runs to catch the ball. Babers should have Schrader throwing the ball to other receivers. Syracuse looked like the Babers team that lost 10 games in one season. The announcers were attributing Syracuse's poor play to the Clemson game. Thought it was a tough one. The guys were tired and beat up. No excuse. The freshman Carlos Del Rio-Wilson distinguished himself in the second half when he replaced Schrader. Syracuse will not fire Babers. They will not want to pay him the millions to buy his contract out and have to pay a new coach at the same time. The firing issue is all about money. The last 2 home games have been sell outs. Fifty thousand fans. One more game like Notre Dame and the Dome will not be sold out. Fans are money conscious also. They want to see a winner play! Otherwise, they can sit at home and watch the game for free on TV. Money an issue in home purchases, also. Home buyers are having a "come to Jesus" moment. Mortgage rates now top 7 percent. Recently topped 7 percent for the first time in 20 years. The 30 year fixed rate has gone to 7.08 percent. One year ago, it was 3.14 percent. Home purchasers are dropping in numbers. Sellers are trying to unload. In September, sellers dropped asking prices an average of 20 percent. Many withdrew their listings. Items associated with home ownership have also risen. Home insurance policies for example. Forty percent higher than 12 years ago. Steve Thompson continues writing about Key West in the 1970's. The Boat Bar on Duval was well known in the seventies. The Taco stand had to deal with their hookers and junkies. The Key West topless bar was on our other side. They all used our restrooms when they wanted to hide. Syringes and paper towels all over the place. The clean up crew said it was difficult to face. There were fights almost every night. Everyone came to the taco stand for a bite. We had a good crew and they handled it just fine. It was by far the best store of mine. The New York Times ran a different and interesting article on 10/17 written by Rachel E. Gross. For some reason, it took till today to receive some prominence. The article's title: Half The World Has A Clitoris. Why Don't Doctors Study It? The organ is "completely ignored by pretty much everyone" medical experts say, and that omission can be devastating to women's sexual health. The article identifies how little time is spent in medical school on the subject and how doctors are ignorant of its problems. The article is shocking. Worth reading, especially by women. Paul Pelosi fortunately is reported to be on the mend. Many have offered their condolences and wishes for a speedy recovery to Nancy and the Pelosi family. Even Republicans. Except for Donald Trump who has not been heard from. Be well.

Legendary USA striker Mia Hamm is the subject of a painting by artist Rachel Gadsden at an exhibition on the history of women’s football

British artist Rachel Gadsden and women’s football…

[boorinho]

Today's mantra. I will be happy. And if I don't feel it, I will try. I am not defined by my twisted perceptions of others' perceptions of my mood. Define your own aura. Paint it in radiant hues, write it in lyrical harmonies, sing it loud. Then clap your hands if you are and you know it. Painting by Rachel Gadsden as part of This Breathing World, Qatar 2015 Remorse I have committed the worst of sins One can commit. I have not been Happy. Let the glaciers of oblivion Take and engulf me, mercilessly. My parents bore me for the risky And the beautiful game of life, For earth, water, air and fire. I failed them, I was not happy. Their youthful hope for me unfulfilled. I applied my mind to the symmetric Arguments of art, its web of trivia. They willed me bravery. I was not brave. It never leaves me. Always at my side, That shadow of a melancholy man. Jorge Luis Borges https://www.instagram.com/p/BsQRqJ5ho-ofVwFPaz5-tLNTXEPjp-EFl8plbI0/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1vndhjlfxpoiy

Hurricane Michael paves path of destruction, isn’t done yet

Hurricane Michael paves path of destruction, isn’t done yet https://ift.tt/2CFZu5W Hurricane Michael paves path of destruction, isn’t done yet

PANAMA CITY, Fla. — The most powerful hurricane on record to hit Florida’s Panhandle left wide destruction and at least two people dead and wasn’t nearly finished Thursday as it crossed Georgia, now as a tropical storm, toward the Carolinas, that are still reeling from epic flooding by Hurricane Florence.

A day after the supercharged storm crashed ashore amid white sand beaches, fishing towns and military bases, Michael was no longer a Category 4 monster packing 155 mph (250 kph) winds. As the tropical storm continued to weaken it was still menacing the Southeast with heavy rains, blustery winds and possible spinoff tornadoes.

Authorities said at least two people have died, a man killed by a tree falling on a Panhandle home and according to WMAZ-TV, an 11-year-old girl was also killed by a tree falling on a home in southwest Georgia. Search and rescue crews were expected to escalate efforts to reach hardest-hit areas and check for anyone trapped or injured in the storm debris.

The National Hurricane Center in Miami said early Thursday that the eye of Michael was about 90 miles (144 kilometres) northeast of Macon, Georgia and about 45 miles (72 kilometres) west of Augusta. The storm’s maximum sustained winds have decreased to 50 mph (80 kph) and it was moving to the northeast at 21 mph (33 kph). The core of Michael will move across eastern Georgia into Central South Carolina on Thursday morning.

After daylight Thursday residents of north Florida would just be beginning to take stock of the enormity of the disaster.

Damage in Panama City near where Michael came ashore Wednesday afternoon was so extensive that broken and uprooted trees and downed power lines lay nearly everywhere. Roofs were peeled away, sent airborne, and homes were split open by fallen trees. Twisted street signs lay on the ground. Palm trees whipped wildly in the winds. More than 380,000 homes and businesses were without power at the height of the storm.

Dorian Carter looks under furniture for a missing cat after several trees fell on their home during Hurricane Michael in Panama City, Fla., Wednesday, Oct. 10, 2018. Supercharged by abnormally warm waters in the Gulf of Mexico, Hurricane Michael slammed into the Florida Panhandle with terrifying winds of 155 mph Wednesday, splintering homes and submerging neighborhoods.

Vance Beu, 29, was staying with his mother at her home, Spring Gate Apartments, a complex of single-story wood frame buildings where they piled up mattresses around themselves for protection. A pine tree punched a hole in their roof and his ears even popped when the barometric pressure went lower. The roar of the winds, he said, sounded like a jet engine.

“It was terrifying, honestly. There was a lot of noise. We thought the windows were going to break at any time,” Beu said.

Sally Crown rode out Michael on the Florida Panhandle thinking at first that the worst damage was the many trees downed in her yard. But after the storm passed, she emerged to check on the cafe she manages and discovered a scene of breathtaking destruction.

“It’s absolutely horrendous. Catastrophic,” Crown said. “There’s flooding. Boats on the highway. A house on the highway. Houses that have been there forever are just shattered.”

//<![CDATA[ ( function() { pnLoadVideo( "videos", "S05XEmNvzTg", "pn_video_945907", "", "", {"is_mobile":""} ); } )(); //]]>

A Panhandle man was killed by a tree that toppled on a home, Gadsden County Sheriff’s Office spokeswoman Anglie Hightower said. But she added emergency crews trying to reach the home were hampered by downed trees and debris blocking roadways. The debris was a problem in many coastal communities and still hundreds of thousands of people were also left without power.

Gov. Rick Scott announced afterward that thousands of law enforcement officers, utility crews and search and rescue teams would now go into recovery mode. He said “aggressive” search and rescue efforts would get underway.

“Hurricane Michael cannot break Florida,” Scott vowed.

Michael sprang quickly from a weekend tropical depression, going from a Category 2 on Tuesday to a Category 4 by the time it came ashore. It forced more than 375,000 people up and down the Gulf Coast to evacuate as it gained strength quickly while crossing the eastern Gulf of Mexico toward north Florida. It moved so fast that people didn’t’ have much time to prepare, and emergency authorities lamented that many ignored the warnings and seemed to think they could ride it out.

In Panama City, plywood and metal flew off the front of a Holiday Inn Express. Part of the awning fell and shattered the glass front door of the hotel, and the rest of the awning wound up on vehicles parked below it.

“Oh my God, what are we seeing?” said evacuee Rachel Franklin, her mouth hanging open.

Hurricane Michael formed off the coast of Cuba carrying major Category 4 landfall in the Florida Panhandle. Surge in the Big Bend area, along with catastrophic winds at 155mph. The First Baptist Church of Port St Joe, Fla., was significantly damaged and water remains on the street near the church on Wednesday, Oct. 10, 2018, after Hurricane Michael made landfall in the Florida Panhandle

Based on its internal barometric pressure, Michael was the third most powerful hurricane to hit the U.S. mainland, behind the unnamed Labor Day storm of 1935 and Camille in 1969. Based on wind speed, it was the fourth-strongest, behind the Labor Day storm (184 mph, or 296 kph), Camille and Andrew in 1992.

It also brought the dangers of a life-threatening storm surge.

In Mexico Beach, population 1,000, the storm shattered homes, leaving floating piles of lumber. The lead-grey water was so high that roofs were about all that could be seen of many homes.

Hours earlier, meteorologists watched satellite imagery in complete awe as the storm intensified.

“We are in new territory,” National Hurricane Center Meteorologist Dennis Feltgen wrote on Facebook. “The historical record, going back to 1851, finds no Category 4 hurricane ever hitting the Florida panhandle.”

The storm is likely to fire up the debate over global warming. Scientists say global warming is responsible for more intense and more frequent extreme weather, such as storms, droughts, floods and fires. But without extensive study, they cannot directly link a single weather event to the changing climate.

After Michael left the Panhandle late Wednesday, Kaylee O’Brien was crying as she sorted through the remains of the apartment she shared with three roommates at Whispering Pines apartments, where the smell of broken pine trees was thick in the air. Four pine trees had crashed through the roof of her apartment, nearly hitting two people.

Her biggest worry: finding her missing 1-year-old Siamese cat, Molly.

“We haven’t seen her since the tree hit the den. She’s my baby,” a distraught O’Brien said, her face wet with tears.

Narodni muzej Zrenjanin na međunarodnoj konferenciji u Skoplju

New Post has been published on https://recepti-kuvar.rs/narodni-muzej-zrenjanin-na-medjunarodnoj-konferenciji-u-skoplju/?Narodni+muzej+Zrenjanin+na+me%C4%91unarodnoj+konferenciji+u+Skoplju Recepti+i+Kuvar+online

Narodni muzej Zrenjanin na međunarodnoj konferenciji u Skoplju

U periodu od 20. do 21. juna 2018. Međunarodna konferencija „Balkanski muzeji bez barijera #2“ održana je u Memorijalnom centru holokausta Jevreja Makedonije u Skoplju. Događaj je organizovala Balkanska mreža muzeja i Fondacija Kulturno nasleđe bez granica iz Bosne i Hercegovine.

Na konferenciji „Balkanski muzeji bez barijera #2“ prisustvovalo je 40 muzejskih profesionalaca i osoba sa invaliditetom iz više od 20 gradova na Balkanu i šire, koji su razmenili iskustva i znanja kako bi učinili muzeje inkluzivnim i pristupačnim za sve posetioce.

Višegodišnji vizuelni i performansni umetnik i umetnički direktor dr Rachel Gadsden održala je uvodni govor prvog dana konferencije o svom radnom iskustvu u ovoj oblasti, dok je drugog dana Konferencije govorila Ana Ianina iz Bugarske koja od 2001. godine radi sa različitim institucijama u oblasti socijalne inkluzije i invaliditeta.

Narodni muzej Zrenjanin na ovoj konferenciji predstavljala je Sanja Vrzić, viši organizator muzejskih aktivnosti, koja je predstavila projekat audio-video vodiča kroz stalnu postavku Narodnog muzeja Zrenjanin na tablet uređajima, prilagođenom slepim i slabovidim i gluvim i nagluvim posetiocima, i prateći poster kolegama iz Regiona koji su nakon glasanja izglasali ovaj projekat kao drugi najbolji projekat predstavljen na Konferenciji.

Narodni muzej Zrenjanin na međunarodnoj konferenciji u Skoplju

Mreža balkanskih muzeja (BMN) i Fondacija Kulturno nasleđe bez granica iz Bosne i Hercegovine (CHwB BiH) posvećena su uključivanju osoba sa invaliditetom u prezentaciju muzejskih kolekcija, izložbi i aktivnosti.

Da podsetimo:

U Narodnom muzeju Zrenjanin tokom 2014. godine izrađen je audio-video vodič kroz stalnu postavku instaliran na tablet uređajima prilagođen slepim i slabovidim i gluvim i nagluvim posetiocima. Izradu vodiča finansirala je međunarodna humanitarna organizacija – Fondacije Stavros Niarchos, aporjekat je realizovan u saradnji sa Mrežom balkanskih muzeja i Fondacijom Kulturno nasleđe bez granica iz Bosne i Hercegovine.

Narodni muzej Zrenjanin bio je prvi muzej u Srbiji koji je svojim posetiocima ponudio ovakvu vrstu vodiča prilagođenu osobama sa invaliditetom.

Svrha vodiča je da posetioci mogu da prolaze kroz postavku svojim sopstvenim tempom i slušaju ili gledaju objašnjenja o eksponatima i priče o istoriji srednjeg Banata. Autori projekta su Biljana Eleković i Sanja Vrzić, kustosi zrenjaninskog muzeja.

Aplikacija vodiča uključuje video fajlove o muzeju i stalnoj postavci na znakovnom jeziku, kao i tekstualne i audio fajlove na srpskom i engleskom jeziku. Vodič je rezultat timskog rada zaposlenih u Muzeju, dobre saradnje sa Organizacijom slepih i slabovidih osoba i Udruženjem gluvih i nagluvih iz Zrenjanina, kao i sa dizajn studiom The Studio.

Na prvoj međuregionalnoj konferenciji „Balkan Museums without Barriers“ u Sarajevu 2014. ovaj projekat je proglašen za treći najbolji projekat na području Zapadnog Balkana.
