Cart-wheeling verger Ben Sheward rebuked by stodgy clerics after becoming wedding web sensation
Shame on the Abbey clerics for scolding the cart-wheeling verger. There’s nothing wrong with showing joy in God’s house.
I’m sure Jesus didn’t mind one bit! To be able to do cartwheels at his age, Ben derserves a medal.
Daily Mail reports the Westminster Abbey verger who became an internet sensation after cart-wheeling down the nave following the Royal Wedding has been rebuked by senior staff.
Sources at the Abbey said the man was feeling ‘fairly chastened’ after his impromptu display of acrobatics was caught on film.
Although he is unlikely to face any formal disciplinary action, Abbey staff have warned him not to speak publicly about the incident.
While the Abbey has refused to identify him, sources have disclosed he is Ben Sheward, who lives in South London.
The sources said Mr Sheward is believed to have worked at the Abbey for ten years, and he has previously been pictured welcoming new choirboys by sharing sweets with them.
According to some sources, he has studied music in New Zealand and is an expert on the composer Edward Elgar.
Mr Sheward waited until some 1,900 guests had left the Abbey before seizing his chance to cartwheel down the red carpet that William and Kate had just walked along for the first time as a married couple.
In the clip, the black-cassocked verger is shown strolling down the carpet.
As a number of apparent stragglers from the wedding service look on, he embarks on one cart-wheel, smiles, and then squeezes in at least one other before disappearing out of shot.
ITV cameras caught his antics, which were beamed to millions of viewers around the world, ensuring the unsuspecting verger became an international celebrity.
The clip had already attracted 100,000 internet hits yesterday, and comments on various websites had come from as far afield as the United States and Australia. One said: ‘I think this self-publicist should be sacked!’ Most, however, praised him.
A Westminster Abbey spokesman said: ‘The verger, like all of us, was very pleased the service had gone according to plan, and was expressing his exuberance.’ He emphasised that the incident occurred some time after the wedding had finished.
But Abbey officials were keen to prevent the story spreading further yesterday with one saying: ‘We are just trying to keep a lid on this one. The verger has been spoken to a number of times and has been advised how to handle the situation.’
The official denied, however, that the man was in hiding, saying the Abbey had not resorted to such extreme measures.
Yesterday there was no sign of Mr Sheward amid the thousands of visitors to Westminster Abbey.
One verger, who was greeting the crowds, said: ‘We all found it jolly good fun when we heard but I don’t think he anticipated all the publicity.
‘I believe he thought the cameras would have been turned off by that point. Now some visitors are expecting all vergers to be doing cart-wheels.’
Another Abbey worker added: ‘It was lovely, just lovely. It reflected the joy we were all feeling at that point. But he really isn’t looking to become a media star – he isn’t that kind of guy.’
All of the carpets, furniture, fixtures and fittings which had been brought in for the wedding had been cleared away by Friday night.
The only evidence of the nuptials yesterday – besides the larger-than-usual number of visitors – were the 20ft potted trees lining the aisle.
A verger is usually a layman who assists in the ordering of religious services, particularly in Church of England churches or cathedrals.
A verger’s main role is to lead processions during services, and they often play a prominent part behind the scenes, helping to plan the logistical details of a service and discreetly shepherding the clergy through it. But they have a variety of other functions, from acting as odd-job men to guiding tourists around the buildings.
The office’s title comes from the ceremonial rod which a verger carries, a virge, from the Latin virga, meaning branch, staff or rod.
Fun Foam Mosaic
This was a really fun project, but it did take quite a long time to complete.
.
I had the students cover the front side of a copied black line coloring page with white chalk pastel. We then flipped the paper over on to the black construction paper and secured with blue painters tape. The black lines were visible through the regular copy paper so the students just traced the lines
with a pencil creating a white chalk line transfer.
The fun foam was precut into small squares beforehand, but if the space required a smaller space, they had to cut those pieces themselves. Triangle shapes worked most of the time.
They were encouraged to use more than one color tone in areas like the leaves
to create a little interest and depth.
I had the students work from the inside of the picture outward by filling the space with regular white Elmer's school glue and carefully place the foam tesserae in the space. Toothpicks were used to move the pieces to the exact space and students did need to be reminded to leave space in between the tesserae to allow the black "grout" to show through.
I also told them that the piece would be more interesting if they did not cover the entire page with tesserae but left areas foam free.The branch area was also left foam free and created a nice contrast for the yellow claws.
Tempers flare and shoes are thrown at Pastor Terry Jones' Dearborn rally
Terry Jones may be out there, but not everything he has to say is off base. I have a problem with Muslims who refuse to assimilate to American culture no differently than if it were any other group.
But, Islam is the chic religion of the Left. As far as I’m concerned Islam is not a religion of peace at all. They put a much higher value on death and martyrdom which is why they have no problem strapping bombs to babies.
That’s pretty sick if you ask me!
Detroit Free Press reports amid a heavy police presence, Pastor Terry Jones delivered a rambling speech Friday from the steps of Dearborn City Hall that lashed out at Islam and President Barack Obama, but much of his words were drowned out by the voices of a swarm of protesters across the street who called him a bigot.
Jones repeatedly provoked the crowd and insulted them. At one point, he ignored police requests by ambling down to the front of police barricades while taunting his opponents.
Angered, some of those protesters stormed past their police barricades and marched across Michigan Avenue as they hurled bottles and shoes at Jones' supporters across from them. One woman spit in Jones' direction.
The young crowd then pushed down a security fence that separated them from Jones' supporters and surged forward, their faces tight with anger. For a moment, it appeared a major clash was about to break out.
But Arab-American leaders and police pushed back the angry group as dozens of police officers in full riot gear marched out in single file to separate the two sides. At least two were arrested. Dearborn Mayor John O'Reilly Jr. said afterward that Jones was responsible for creating the disturbance by ignoring city requests not to approach the barricade.
"He refused to comply," O'Reilly said. "He was asked, 'Please don't come to the barricade.' He just ignored us. ... His goal was to start trouble. ... That shows his character."

Tim Holtz Alterations Die Artful Dwellings
I was playing with the Tim Holtz Artful Dwellings Alterations Die from Sizzix. It has 4 pieces and is longer than normal Bigz Die. This die fills up a regular sized cutting pad!
A very versatile die which can be used for so many ideas - holiday houses, welcome home, just moved, our home barbecue, a town banner,,, Hey - did you Notice an Old Jalopy driving by :)
This was cut from heavy chipboard.
I used 7gypsies Lille paper, Pink Paislee ANTHOLOGY Corrugated Elements, Melissa Frances Round Romantic Pearl Broach on a Pink Pailsee ANTHOLOGY Flower Darlings.
The backside stamped and splattered with Glimmer Glaze. Tim Holtz tissue tape holds it together. The tap will not hold up for multiple bendings ( like kids like to do -lol).
I die cut the dwellings out of book pages and misted them with Calico Studios Mister Huey Pony ink. This is a BoBunny Mini Edge album page. I sewed the houses together onto a fiber swatch. The flower is Prima.
This was cut from Tim Holtz Grungepaper and is held together with 7gypsies gaffer tape on the back.
For the texture I mixed Golden Molding Paste with Golden Fluid Glaze Fresco Cream to make a soft beige. Then I misted with Tattered Angels Chalkboard- Firefly and Polka Dot Pink.

Egypt’s Muslim Brotherhood Now Plans Big Political Role
This is not a good development! But, it wasn’t like people Sean Hannity didn’t see this coming. Look for Egyptian women to be treated like 2nd class citizens, but worse than that, Israel’s security is in grave danger.
This was never a Democratic uprising, but rather an Islamofacist takeover pure and simple.
The Blaze reports the once outlawed Muslim Brotherhood says it will contest half of the seats in Egypt’s parliamentary elections in September, revealing plans to become a major force in the country’s post-revolution politics.
The elections will be the first since the ouster of President Hosni Mubarak by a popular uprising in February.
The Brotherhood remained Egypt‘s best organized opposition group despite a campaign by Mubarak’s regime to suppress it. It successfully fielded candidates in previous parliamentary elections as independents.
At a news conference Saturday, the Brotherhood named the leaders of its new Freedom and Justice party.
The party will test to what extent the Brotherhood is willing to moderate its rigid religious discourse to try to win broader political support.

Naked man in China shins down drainpipe as police raid brothel
They have a death penalty in China for messing with prostitutes. So, this guy did what he thought had to do to avoid capture with his pants and everything else down.
Do you feel a draft?
Daily Mail reports one moment he thought he was just an anonymous punter in a backstreet brothel.
The next he's in the nude hanging off a drainpipe after police burst into the brothel he was using in eastern China.
As the doors were smashed down the customer, leaving his clothes behind, ran on to the roof of the rundown apartment bloc in Changchun, Jilin province.
He then shinned down what appears to be a huge drainpipe and then ran off into the backstreets.
But he was not alone in making his escape. Moments after he appeared on the roof, two women - one just wrapped in a towel - could be seen running across the roof.
In the centre of the image another forlorn customer can be seen hiding behind a packing crate.
China has severe anti-prostitution laws and punishments including the death penalty for anyone guilty of human trafficking.
Can Sila Sahin Save The Women of Islam?
Seems like the Muslim ladies have more cojones than their beard-wearing counterparts, or your average American liberal. First we had Pakistani actress Veena Malik giving an earful to a critical mullah and a media lackey, telling them to f*ck off and mind to their own business, while informing them of exactly where to apply their lash. Now we have Sila Sahin, a German Muslim raised by strict Turkish parents, posing in Playboy. And boy, are the bearded monkeys howling:
Islamic internet sites are being monitored by the BND - the German intelligence agency - after threats were posted about her "shaming Muslim womanhood" and "prostituting herself for money".
One poster on the Jihad Watch website wrote: "She needs to be very careful..." Another simply said: "She must pay."
A kebab shop owner, asked on German TV what he would do if Sila were his daughter, replied: "I would kill her. I really mean that. That doesn't fit with my culture."
The Islamic Community of Germany has called for a boycott of Sila.
About three million Muslim immigrants live in Germany, which has seen numerous honour killings in recent years by fanatical husbands, fathers and brothers.
In 2009, an asylum seeker was sentenced to life after killing his "too independent" German wife.
One police intelligence officer said of Sila: "I think what she did was either very brave, or very stupid.She will be double-locking her door at night for a long time to come."
Wow, the German police were much braver back in the day when all they had to do was round up Jews and put them into cattle cars. I suppose if they want to learn courage, they can lear at the feet of Sila Sahin:
Sila, 25 - star of German soap Good Times, Bad Times - claimed the shoot was a reaction to the "slavery" of her youth.
She added: "What I want to say with these photos is, 'Girls, we don't have to live according to the rules imposed upon us'.
"For years I subordinated myself to various societal constraints. The Playboy photo shoot was a total act of liberation."
As with Veena Malik, I pray for her safety. Much like the American Left reacts with vicious outrage and unadulterated hatred any time one of "their own" - a black, a woman - leaves the Democratic plantation and becomes a Republican, Muslims fundamentalists know that if women throw off the veil and declare themselves to be beautiful, free, and worthy of admiration and respect, their entire system of misogynistic semi-slavery can come tumbling down. After all, what's the point of adhering to a 12th century religion if you can't even get a cowering, terrified, humiliated female to serve your every sick whim?
Veena and Sila may be the sparks that starts the rebellion among Muslim women, which will lead to a breaking off of strict Muslim men, who will shed their beards and remove their robes if that's what it takes to get the hot ladies. Sometimes faith is only (fore)skin deep.
In honor of her guts, we'll give Sila a photo spread of her own, just like we did for Veena. Muslims, feel free to shake your fist at your monitors in outrage, then just move your hands down south....
That's Sila on the left, Janini Uhse in the middle, and not sure about the hottie on the right. WARNINIG: The next shot is very NSFW, but....wow:
Rick Perry, Texas governor, rips Obama's trip to tornado-devastated Alabama: What about our fires?
I got a better point,Gov Perry!
Almost a year ago, Obama and the mainstream media virtually ignored the devastating flooding in Tennessee. He never visited there either.
I wonder if it’s because he lost Tennessee by double digits? Rush Limbaugh sure thought so.
New York Daily News reports as President Obama meets with Alabama families affected by deadly tornados that swept through the South earlier this week, Texas Gov. Rick Perry is asking: What about us?
The Republican, long a critic of the president, once again ripped the Obama administration Thursday. This time, he bashed Obama for not responding to an April 16 request for a declaration of emergency in the Lone Star State, where wildfires have destroyed nearly 2 million acres.
"You have to ask, 'Why are you taking care of Alabama and other states?'" said Perry.
Texas officials asked the White House to make the declaration, which would have allocated federal funds to help the state deal with the crisis.
"I know our letter didn't get lost in the mail," Perry added.
More details here
Obama is running for re-election. And even though he lost Alabama by nearly 20 points to John McCain, there’s still a significant numbers of African Americans in Alabama that heeds desperately needs to hold the White House.
This the visit. It’s as simple as that.

Lea Salonga Reacts on Willie Revillame's Decision Not To File Libel Case Against Her, et al
Internationally recognized Pinay theater actress Lea Salonga said she felt relieved knowing that Willie Revillame decides not to pursue the libel case against them and other artists whom Willie thought were attacking her on twitter.
"I mean, obviously that's a relief. However, I don't know if you can file a case against someone who's just expressing his opinion," Lea said during the Avon's 125th year party.
Lea added, "My thing is, you know what, you are in showbiz. You are and I am an open target... So you know what, anybody can say anything they want. Just don't make me muraand I will respect what they say. Huwag nila akong murahin. Rerespetuhin ko ang opinion nila."
It will be recalled that on April 8 during the last live airing of Willing Willie, Willie threatened to file a libel case against Lea, Bianca Gonzales, Jim Paredes, Aiza Seguerra, Agot Isidro, Tuesday Vargas, K Brosas, Leah Navarro and Mylene Dizon who publicly expressed their opinions about the controversial Jan-Jan Suan Willing Willie child abuse issue.

NEWS5 Will Go To The Vatican To Cover Pope John Paul II Beatification
Mula mismo sa Vatican City, kaisa ang NEWS5 sa paghahatid ng mga kaganapan sa beatification ni Pope John Paul II o ang proseso tungo sa paggagawad ng paka-santo sa isang indibidwal na napatunayang nagdulot ng himala. Sa misang gaganapin sa Holy See sa Mayo 1, hihirangin ang Santo Papang pinakaminahal ng buong mundo bilang 'Blessed Pope John Paul II' matapos ideklara ni Pope Benedict XVI na isang milagro ang paggaling ng isang madreng Pranses mula sa sakit na Parkinson's.
Naatasan ang batikang reporter ng NEWS5 na si Joey Villarama upang mag-ulat ng mga pangyayari mula sa Vatican. Tinatayang daan-daang libong debotong Katoliko ang sasaksi sa beatification anim na taon makaraang mamaalam ang Santo Papa noong Abril 2, 2005.
Ihahatid ng NEWS5 sa pamamagitan ng Aksyon TV Channel 41 ang misang pangungunahan ni Pope Benedict XVI sa Mayo a-Uno mula alas-kwatro ng hapon hanggang alas-sais y medya ng gabi oras dito sa Pilipinas.
Patuloy na minamahal ng mga Pilipino ang namayapang Santo Papa dahil sa ipinamalas nitong pagkalinga sa mga Asyano partikular na sa mga Pilipino. Dalawang beses na bumisita ang Santo Papa sa Pilipinas - noong 1981 at noong 1995 kung saan ipinagdiwang dito ang World Youth Day na dinaluhan ng mahigit pitong milyong Katoliko. Dahil sa umaapaw na suporta ng mga Pilipino sa Santo Papa, ang Catholic festival na ito ang itinuturing na pinakamalaking pagtitipon sa kasaysayan ng Kristyanismo.
Mag-uulat naman sa lahat ng newscast ng TV5 at Aksyon TV Channel 41 si Joey Villarama para personal na ikwento ang mga pangyayari sa beatification.
Antabayanan ang daan tungo sa pagka-santo ni Pope John Paul II sa NEWS5.

Black Chamber of Commerce Head Harry Alford: Obama is ‘Fanatical’ & ‘Marxist’ — I Only Voted for Him ‘Because He’s Black’
The Obama White House is starting a fake Black Chamber of Commerce to fool the public. Well, it’s gonna work with some Black folks, lets be real here.
However, it must be noted that Obama visited Al Sharpton in New York a few weeks ago. That’s a big change because two years ago when running for president Obama didn’t wanna be seen with Sharpton in public. So something is up with the Black vote.
The Blaze reports that Harry Alford is the president and CEO of the National Black Chamber of Commerce. And boy is he entertaining. He’s also not a fan of many of the business positions Democrats have taken.
You might remember him for his fiery exchange with call-me-Senator Barbara Boxer (D-CA) in 2009, when he accused the senator of infusing race into a congressional hearing:
Today he joined Laura Ingraham on her radio show to talk about Obama’s business policies. He started with this:
“Obama wanted the National Black Chamber to dance to his music and have blind allegiance to his crazy programs and agenda, which are totally anti-business. We are a pro-business organization. So we have to stand on the side of business, and the benefit of our members, which are black entrepreneurs.”
Eventually he got to calling Obama and the administration “Marxist” and “fanatical.”
“They might as well put on the brown shirts and swastikas,” he said.
But that’s not all. Alford also admitted he only voted for Obama “because he’s [Obama] black,” a move he now regrets.
“That is a lesson I will take to my grave,” he said solemnly, later saying Obama is “wrecking” the country and is “dangerous.”

GOP in Crisis: Testosterone deficiency leaves America on suicidal path
The problems of this country, massive deficient, insane spending, and morale decline will not be addressed by the Democrat Party because they’re policies are the root causes for the mess that we’re in.
The only group that can right this course is the GOP!
However, what the GOP doesn’t realize is that they have a serious lack men who aren’t afraid to fight. Too many of the guys on our side are timid and soft.
They think they can operate in the PC environment that Liberals have cleverly set up, and win. That’s why so many GOPers have already neutered themselves before the battle ever begins. They’re too cowardly to break out and throw caution to the wind and say what needs to be said.
What Donald Trump has done is expose and indict the Achilles' heel that’s infecting the party—lack of courage.
It’s a sad state of affairs and unless these guys in the GOP or any GOPer running for office puts their balls back on, the country is doomed forever.
Paul Eluard - Je t'aime
«Je t'aime» de Paul Eluard
L'œuvre poétique de Paul Eluard est influencée par le mouvement surréaliste auquel il a participé dans les années 20 et 30, et plus tard par son activité de résistant durant la seconde guerre mondiale.
Qu'elle soit surréaliste ou engagée, sa poésie accorde une grande place à la célébration lyrique de l'amour, en relation avec les femmes qui ont partagé la vie du poète et inspiré son œuvre. Sa première épouse, Gala une jeune Russe, le quitte pour devenir la compagne et l'inspiratrice du peintre Salvador Dali. Eluard, connaîtra ensuite un amour passionné avec Nush (surnom de Maria Benz, comédienne, modèle pour Picasso) dont la mort soudaine, en 1946, le laissera désemparé jusqu'à sa rencontre trois ans plus tard avec Dominique Laure à qui est dédié en 1951 son dernier recueil Le Phénix, au titre évocateur du pouvoir magique de l'amour.
Le poème proposé, extrait de ce recueil, est constitué de trois strophes de vers libres, structurées par l'anaphore du verbe «je t'aime».
Ce commentaire montre en quoi le lyrisme de ce poème tient d'une part à la déclaration d'amour faite à une femme idéalisée, d'autre part à la célébration de l'amour comme renaissance ou résurrection.

Extrait du document:
On observe la progression des trois strophes, de sept vers chacune : la 1ère et la 3ème commencent par l'affirmation « je t'aime », reprise de façon anaphorique au cours de la strophe. Ces deux strophes, où tous les verbes sont conjugués au présent, évoquent des situations et des sensations heureuses, pour la plupart. La deuxième strophe se singularise par l'absence de cette anaphore « je t »aime » par la présence de verbes au passé composé et l'évocation de souffrances ou de morts. Ainsi, la structure du poème souligne l'exaltation de l'amour présent, qui parviendrait à vaincre, sinon à effacer, les douleurs et les deuils du passé.
Il faut insister sur l'anaphore « je t'aime pour », modulée en « je t'aime contre » expression la plus élémentaire du lyrisme amoureux, déclaration d'amour répétée comme une litanie, une obsession. L'absence de ponctuation peut renforcer cette impression de psalmodie.

Biography

He was born in Saint-Denis, Seine-Saint-Denis, just outside of Paris, son of Clément Grindel and wife Jeanne Cousin. At age 16, after a happy childhood, Éluard contracted tuberculosis and interrupted his studies. He met Gala, born Elena Ivanovna Diakonova, whom he married in 1917, in the Swiss sanatorium of Davos.
(Gala Dalí (7 September [O.S. 26 August] 1894 – June 10, 1982), usually known simply as Gala, was the wife of first Paul Éluard, then Salvador Dalí, and an inspiration for them and many other writers and artists.)
Salvador Dalí, Portrait of Galerina, (1940–45)
Together they had a daughter named Cécile. Around this time Éluard wrote his first poems. He was particularly inspired by Walt Whitman. In 1918, Jean Paulhan “discovered” him and introduced him toAndré Breton and Louis Aragon. This was his introduction to the Surrealist movement. After having collaborated earlier with German DadaistMax Ernst in 1921, in 1922 Ernst entered France illegally and entered into a menage a trois living arrangement with Éluard and Gala.
After a marital crisis, he travelled, returning to France in 1924. Éluard's writings of this period reflect his tumultuous experiences: he had another bout of tuberculosis and separated from Gala when she left him for Salvador Dalí.
Dalí in the 1960s wearing the flamboyant mustache style he popularized.
In 1934, he married Nusch (Maria Benz), a model and a friend of his friends Man Ray and Pablo Picasso, who was considered somewhat of a mascot of the surrealist movement. During World War II, he was involved in the French Resistance. He battled also with his poems, such as his 1942 poemLiberty and Les sept poèmes d'amour en guerre (1944). His work was quite militant, yet simple.
Nusch (Maria Benz),He joined the French Communist Party in 1942,[1] which led to his break from the Surrealists, and he later eulogised Joseph Stalin in his political writings. Milan Kundera has recalled he was shocked when he heard of Éluard's public approval of the hanging of Éluard's friend, the Prague writer Zavis Kalandra in 1950.

His grief at the premature death of his wife Nusch in 1946 inspired the work "Le temps déborde" in 1947. The principles of peace, self-government, and liberty became his new passion. He was part of the Congress of Intellectuals for Peace in Wrocław in 1948, and persuaded Pablo Picasso to also participate.Éluard met his last wife, Dominique Laure, at the Congress of Peace in Mexico in 1949, and they married in 1951. He dedicated his work The Phoenix to her.Paul Éluard died from a heart attack in November 1952. His funeral was held in Charenton-le-Pont, and organized by the Communist Party. Picasso was seated next to Dominique. "In fact," she said later, "it was Éluard who was a friend to Picasso, and the other way around only to the extent that Picasso was capable of friendship."[3]He is buried in Père Lachaise Cemetery.
