4 Pretty, now I have to find out where Arkona is; but, as a guess that is Diamond Head.

111 I've seen many Friedrich paintings thanks in large part to CBD's choices for the art thread. This one is new to me. Friedrich's ability to capture an emotional and sensual feel in his images is wonderful. (The surprise click on today's image is an example of his versatility.)

Looks like I'll be spending some hours on the computer finding more examples of his works. Then there is speculation on what Friedrich might have produced if he had been part of the Hudson River School.

151 The Met, now: Caspar David Friedrich: The Soul of Nature

In part, 'Caspar David Friedrich (1774–1840) reimagined European landscape painting by portraying nature as a setting for profound spiritual and emotional encounters. Working in the vanguard of the German Romantic movement, which championed a radical new understanding of the bond between nature and the inner self, Friedrich developed pictorial subjects and strategies that emphasize the individuality, intimacy, open endedness, and complexity of our responses to the natural world. The vision of the landscape that unfolds in his art—meditative, mysterious, and full of wonder—is still vital today.'

I love landscapes but I'd pass hanging this piece. But today's art selection fits my mood so you did good, CBD.

161 Trump Conviction May Be Death Knell For Vulnerable Senate Dems

Five months out from Election Day, the legal persecution of Trump has now become the dominant political storyline. This development represents a potential disaster for endangered incumbents Sherrod Brown in Ohio, Jon Tester in Montana, Jacky Rosen in Nevada, and Bob Casey in Pennsylvania. None of these Democrats has lifted a finger as Biden’s Department of Justice has ruthlessly targeted Trump in a blatant attempt at election interference – something that will likely become the subject of withering GOP attack ads as campaign season heats up.

Sean Davis, the CEO and co-founder of the the right-wing website The Federalist, called on Republicans to draw up lists of Democrats to “put in prison” in a social media post reacting to Donald Trump’s conviction on Thursday evening.

“In 2016, the presidential race was decided based on candidates releasing lists of potential Supreme Court nominees,” wrote Davis. “In 2024, I want to see lists of which Democrat officials are going to be put in prison.”

“This is what happens when you cross the Rubicon,” he added.

208 Well, after going up 2-1, the Stars Amber Heard and dropped 3 in a row to Edmonton to lose in the Western Conference Finals.

Pete DeBoer, having never won anything, can coach a team to the playoffs, but as long as that's all your goal is, he's your man.

The only good thing about him being the Stars coach is he's not GM, so he won't be destroying the team as he did in NJ, SJ and Vegas.

217 >>> 161 Trump Conviction May Be Death Knell For Vulnerable Senate Dems

Five months out from Election Day, the legal persecution of Trump has now become the dominant political storyline. This development represents a potential disaster for endangered incumbents Sherrod Brown in Ohio, Jon Tester in Montana, Jacky Rosen in Nevada, and Bob Casey in Pennsylvania. None of these Democrats has lifted a finger as Biden’s Department of Justice has ruthlessly targeted Trump in a blatant attempt at election interference - something that will likely become the subject of withering GOP attack ads as campaign season heats up.

10,000 human remains found on serial killer’s farm — and authorities are still identifying victims (Indiana)

For years, a peaceful, million-dollar farm in Indiana hid a dark secret: It was a serial killer’s playground. When cops finally raided Herb Baumeister’s 18-acre property in Westfield, north of Indianapolis, they uncovered some 10,000 pieces of human remains — mostly crushed and burned skeletal fragments of the teenage boys and young men whom he had abducted and murdered in the 1980s and ’90s. Nearly 30 years after Baumeister killed himself while on the run from police, authorities are still sifting through the remains and identifying victims.
