Posted by: naturalfake at May 31, 2023 09:47 AM (RJQ8g)

66 No surprise I love the Pre-Raphaelite works and Hunt is one of the best. The wonderful level of detail and use of appropriate color grab the viewer's attention. Rivet the attention, actually. Then the story aspect starts to come through. It is rich and powerful art.

One of the strengths in this painting is the way Hunt uses sunlight and shadow. It reminds me of the way Andrew Wyeth used them a few generations later.

CBD, thanks for choosing this one. It is a delight.

69 True story about hunting. My crazy ex-wife's mother was an insurance agent. She took out a three day $1 million life policy on me the first time I went mule deer hunting with the crazy in-laws.

Posted by: Ciampino - Circular definition: see definition, circular. at May 31, 2023 09:53 AM (qfLjt)

93 Scholars agree that one of the purposes of the vast amount of typological details in Hunt’s paintings is to prompt the viewer to a leisurely examination of the work. Landow states, “In each of his major typological works, Hunt expected the viewer to concentrate upon all the details of the painting, gradually coming to perceive its meaning by what was essentially a process of meditation” (William Holman Hunt 16). Sorting out the myriad details and their relationships to each other, to the title, and to the inscribed text meant that the message of the work had time to become lodged in the viewer’s memory. And it was through this memory that
the message could then be effective.

140 ||Hunt left England for Egypt in January 1854, spending two years in the Holy Land. The major painting to result from this stay was The Scapegoat (1854-5, Lady Lever Art Gallery, Port Sunlight). He contributed to Moxon's edition of Tennyson's Poems in 1857. In 1865 he married Fanny Waugh. They left England for the East in August 1866; however while in quarantine detention in Florence Fanny gave birth to a son, contracted miliary fever and died. Hunt returned to England in September 1867. The following year he travelled back to Florence to work on a memorial to Fanny.||

170 The detail of the painting is wonderful - from the beautiful bedspread, to the overturned bottle on the seat of the chair, water pitcher on the floor, and opened bureau - and it certainly conveys religion & sadness. His 1st wife died in childbirth, his second wife was her younger sister. I thought perhaps the painting represented his wives united through sorrow with his first wife's sister praying over the bed of the deceased.

While it's very well done, I wouldn't hang as it brings up a memory or two to me, too. Thank you.

Posted by: nurse ratched at May 31, 2023 10:26 AM (ikoqu)

It was beautiful. The look on my kid's face when she received her "diploma" (they'll get the actual one later) was PRICELESS. Don't think I've ever seen her smile that big.

What really got to me was when she came outside and found us, I was the first person she ran and gave a hug to. Didn't see that coming.

Politics is a Machiavellian hellscape of backstabbing, power-hungry assholes. Trump lavishes praise on supporters, and punishes those that turn against him as a warning to others. It's ugly and nasty, but it's effective and necessary, especially for an outsider that can't rely on cover from party leadership or the media.

"The game follows the fictional story of a global pandemic that engulfed the world and is being ignored by fanatics who do not believe that the disease is real," the game's Steam store page reads. "It is up to the main characters, 4 common citizens adequately protected with gloves and masks, to deal with these fanatics and solve the situation with the force of their own fists.

301 Chechen warlord Ramzan Kadyrov has blasted Vladimir Putin's war tactics for not being 'brutal' enough amid his invasion of Ukraine and demanded that Russia declare martial law.

The strongman, previously seen as a close Kremlin ally, said the drone onslaught on Moscow this week showed a tougher response is needed from Russia's military that would see the war taken to NATO countries.

'Responses to such attempts to attack should not be harsh - they should be brutal,' Kadyrov said.

'In my opinion, it is necessary to declare martial law in Russia, to use all the combat resources intended for this, in order to sweep away this entire terrorist cell [in Ukraine] at once.'

But people don't commonly brute force them. There are ways of password guessing that brings down the amount of effort necessary, even for good hashing algorithms. Use 12-16 random characters; mix of numbers, upper, lower, and specials, and always assume the developer at the other end of the connection is a moron unaware of security so don't ever reuse a password across different sites.

He said that without cutting agricultural emissions, the world may not reach its goal of limiting global warming to 1.5 degrees Celsius – which scientists say must be achieved to avoid the worst impacts of climate change.

President Joe Biden has pledged the U.S. will reach net zero emissions by 2050.

Exxon Mobil recently announced that net zero by 2050 is not obtainable, therefore they would not include any statement about it in their SEC submissions.

The bottom line is you don't get to see it often because that kind of Republican is a bird so rare as to practically never have been spotted.

352 I don’t know if DeSantis talking about Fauci is a good strategy. Covid is long gone from peoples memories. Do they really want to start the debate again over Fauci and lockdowns? I mean yeah Fauci is awful and Trump is the reason he was allowed to do his awfulness. But that’s 2-3 years old stuff. I don’t know how many voters out there are aching for this fight again.

Not only that, it's Romney running against Obamacare.

357 “A lot of people have no clue that agriculture contributes about 33% of all the emissions of the world,” he said during his keynote address. “We can’t get to net-zero, we don’t get this job done unless agriculture is front and center as part of the solution. So all of us understand here the depths of this mission.”

“Food systems themselves contribute a significant amount of emissions just in the way in which we do the things we’ve been doing,” he continued. “With a growing population on the planet – we just crossed the threshold of 8 billion fellow citizens around the world – emissions from the food system alone are projected to cause another half a degree of warming by mid-century.”

He said we should start by stopping all farm products to the H. J. Heinz Company

I think it's about the primary, and Trump gearing up his attacks on DeSantis. Attacking Fauci is a way to attack Trump from the conservative side of things, in a way that Trump can't defend. I don't think it will be much of a general election theme.

"He makes enemies when it's totally unnecessary because of perceived personal slights."

That's not how this works. This is politically naive. Politics works based on interests(and foreign policy for that matter), not comity.

Trump's verbal navigation is perfectly fine, he profits those who side with him and costs those who side against him. This is an incentive to work with him.

His main difficulty is his platform hits the pocketbooks of a lot of people. Working with Trump only offers power and status, not wealth, power, and status.

384 Are people seriously claiming that Trump won't flip to praising someone he was previously criticizing if they come over to his side on something?

We saw that happen. We literally saw that happen during his presidency.

Public criticism is a punishment, public praise is a reward or incentive. Carrot and stick, not rocket science people.

And other politicians do this too, they'll frequently switch between public criticism and support depending on what benefits they receive.
