Kevin E. Dayhoff - TheTentacle.com: Bank Transfer Day

October 19, 2011

Bank Transfer Day
Kevin E. Dayhoff
http://www.thetentacle.com/ShowArticle.cfm?mydocid=4695



The continuing saga of the crusade against the vampire squids… I’m just saying…

While everyone was distracted by what Charles Krauthammer delightfully described as, the “Starbucks-sipping, Levi’s-clad, iPhone-clutching protesters (of the Occupy Wall Street movement who) denounce corporate America even as they weep for Steve Jobs, corporate titan, billionaire eight times over…,” a new social uprising term has entered the public discourse. Saturday, November 5 is “Bank Transfer Day.”

According to the uprising’s meager beginnings on Facebook, created by a small business owner, Kristen Christian, 27, a small art gallery owner in Los Angles, citizens are encouraged to take their money out of the blood-sucking vampire squid mega-banks and put it in smaller community banks or more specifically, credit unions.

Ms. Christian owns “Le Spec,” an independent art gallery. She spoke for many when she answered a question from Jen Doll, in a Village Voice article: Why did you decide to do this?

“Mostly just, I was tired. I was tired of being charged bank fee after bank fee after bank fee… When they decided to react so negatively to the Durbin Amendment, that made me sick…”

As opposed to the Occupy Wall Street protests, which appear to be a mobocracy of themeless, clueless anarchists on holiday, Bank Transfer Day has a well-defined and articulated goal, with a specific action plan.

Even National Public Radio, which never met a leftist cause it could not wholeheartedly support, with our tax dollars, could not fathom what the Occupy Wall Street protestors were trying to say

Much of the mainstream media and leftist Democrats want you to believe that Bank Transfer Day is an offshoot grass-roots effort spawned by the Occupy Wall Street anarchists-without-a-clue.

Nothing could be farther from the truth...

Toni Guagenti - HamptonRoads.com: Don’t-miss life lessons cover ‘Terri’s’ territory




Don’t-miss life lessons cover ‘Terri’s’ territory




“TERRI”
Blu-ray widescreen and DVD widescreen, 2011, R for sexual content, language and some drug and alcohol use – all involving teens
Best extra: “A Look Inside ‘Terri,’” a 10-minute high-def behind-scenes short with co-writer/director Azazel Jacobs and others, including actor Jacob Wysocki (Terri) and cinematographer Tobias Datum
CONFUSED. AWKWARD. UNCOMFORTABLE – just a few words to describe adolescence regardless of who you are, what color you are or how much money your parents or guardian might have. In director Azazel Jacobs’ world of “Terri,” viewers can relive some of those embarrassing high school moments and empathize with the movie’s teen characters. Maybe there are new life lessons to discover, too.

There might be some adults willing to admit that, just because you get older, you don’t always have all the answers to what life throws your way. These folks might relate to John C. Reilly’s character, a high school principal who reaches out to loners to help them cope with the day-to-day challenge of growing up. By “Terri’s” end, he helps himself as well...

Would a rose by any other name still be as sweet as Carroll County?

Would a rose by any other name still be as sweet as Carroll County?

One of the frequent reader questions to the Eagle Archives is how did certain streets, places and towns inCarroll County get their names? However, on a few occasions, the question is, how did Carroll County get its name?

Of course, since I am a closet Shakespeare fan, the answer often involves a quotation from "Romeo and Juliet" — "What's in a name? That which we call a rose by any other name would smell as sweet…"

http://www.baltimoresun.com/explore/carroll/news/community/ph-ce-eagle-archive-1016-20111012,0,4543553.story

With that in mind, do you think Carroll County would still be a great place to live if it went by the name, "Paca County?" Or "Union County" or "Westminster County?" ...


... that which we call a rose By any other name would smell as sweet


Juliet:
O Romeo, Romeo! wherefore art thou Romeo?
Deny thy father and refuse thy name;
Or, if thou wilt not, be but sworn my love,
And I'll no longer be a Capulet.
Romeo:
[Aside] Shall I hear more, or shall I speak at this?
Juliet:
'Tis but thy name that is my enemy;
Thou art thyself, though not a Montague.
What's Montague? it is nor hand, nor foot,
Nor arm, nor face, nor any other part
Belonging to a man. O, be some other name!
What's in a name? that which we call a rose
By any other name would smell as sweet;
So Romeo would, were he not Romeo call'd,
Retain that dear perfection which he owes
Without that title. Romeo, doff thy name,
And for that name which is no part of thee
Take all myself.
Romeo:
I take thee at thy word:
Call me but love, and I'll be new baptized;
Henceforth I never will be Romeo.

William Shakespeare's play Romeo and Juliet

Lecture on the western cowboy art of E. William 'Bill' Gollings at McDaniel College, Oct. 13 Collector, author to speak at Peterson Hall event


Lecture on the western cowboy art of E. William 'Bill' Gollings at McDaniel College, Oct. 13 Collector, author to speak at Peterson Hall event





As a result of the collaboration of McDaniel professor Sue Bloom, local Westminster physician Dr. Dean Griffin and McDaniel College, a special talk on the western art of E. William Gollings will be held on Thursday evening October 13th in Peterson Hall at McDaniel College at 7 pm.

The premier authority on Gollings' work, Dr. William Ward, will be speaking.

According to Griffin and Bloom, Ward is a radiologist, who trained at the University of Maryland Medical School. He discovered the work of Gollings as he flew from his home in Laramie, Wyoming, to the remote populations of Nebraska, Wyoming, Colorado and Utah, delivering medical care.

It was during his residency when Ward became friends with a gallery owner in Denver, according to Bloom and Griffin. Thus began many years of collecting the work of E. William Gollings, a true cowboy artist, who lived from 1878 to1932, in Wyoming.

Ward and his wife, Carole, have amassed the definitive collection of Gollings work and have arranged to donate over $5 million in Gollings work to the University of Wyoming Museum of Art.

Ward has published two books on Gollings' art and commissioned a bronze statue of Gollings to sit across the street from the Wyoming State Capitol. His philanthropy in the fields of art and medicine are widely known in the west.

E. William Gollings was known as “Paint Bill” during his lifetime and he worked in watercolor, oils and etching. He painted cowboys, Indians, wolves, livestock and ranchers. Many of his paintings went east with vacationers at dude ranches, selling for as little as $20.

Griffin said in a recent e-mail interview, “The lecturer is a friend of mine from Wyoming … Last year I traveled to Wyoming to hear him give this lecture to a group from the Cowboy Hall of Fame Museum in Oklahoma City.

“It was excellent,” said Griffin. Dr. Ward has quite an extensive collection. This artist and the lecturer are very well known in the southwest of the United States. Several of Gollings paintings are in the Grand Room of the Wyoming State House and there is a bronze statue of Bill Gollings on the lawn of the Wyoming State House.

“This is a rare opportunity for you to hear a great lecture on Cowboy Art. Dr Ward is very knowledgeable of the art and history of the southwest. I am pleased he has agreed to do this while visiting here in Westminster. My hat goes off to Professor Bloom who has made this possible.”

Thursday evening, Ward will talk about Gollings work and his own commitment to documenting Gollings' life and collecting his art work. The event is open to the public.
