I am sending one to you this year in the hope that it may help you in your meditations for the Children's Service on Christmas Eve. It was written more than twenty years ago: "Dear Son: This year you are still too young to know much about Christmas, both what God wanted it to be, and what we have made it ... You will look open-eyed at the lights, and you will rock quietly as you hear sweeter music than you have ever heard before ... I am sure, too, that you will wonder, as little children everywhere have always wondered, at the strange beauty of Christmas ... the happy people, seemingly so much happier than they are at any other time ... the music, the carols, the lights in every window throwing a warm promise on the snow ...

    RESTRICTEDL/2377 GENERAL AGREEMENT ON 6 March 1965 TARIFFS AND TRADE Limited Distribution CONTRACTING PARTIES Twenty-Second Session EUROPEAN FREE TRADE ASSOCIATION AND THE ASSOCIATION OF EFTA AND FINLAND Information Furnished by Member States European Free Trade Association 1. The EFTA countries have undertaken to provide, as the Association develops, additional information in accordance with Article XXIV:7(a) of the General Agreement. 2. In March 1964, at the twenty-first session of the CONTRACTING PARTIES the member States of EFTA submitted their third report on the progress made in implementing the Stockholm Convention. A brief outline of the development since the last session is given below. More detailed information is given in the Fourth Annual Report of the European Free Trade Association for the period 1 July 1963 to 30 June 1964, and the booklet entitled "EFTA Trade".¹ 3. As in previous years, the EFTA countries have worked together to contribute to a harmonious expansion of world trade and to the creation of a large and outward- looking European market. As regards the first, EFTA countries have actively participated in the Kennedy Round negotiations where their identity of purpose and harmony of outlook on the main issues have enabled them to reinforce the efforts to attain the full objectives of these trade negotiations. In the same spirit, the EFTA countries participated in the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development. As regards the second, the EFTA countries have found that the best way to further their common objectives for the present is to continue to strengthen the co-operation among themselves.

  • December 1965
    On Pilgrimage - December 1965 Dorothy Day The Catholic Worker, December 1965, 1, 2, 7. Summary: Discusses freedom of conscience and obedience to Church and State in the context of Vatican Council II’s condemnation of nuclear war. Lauds the “little way” of St. Therese as the foundation of world peace and a means of social change. (DDLW #248). It is a happy thing to feel gratitude, so we thank our readers for these feelings of ours, as well as for the help they have sent us to pay our bills, and for the good letters upholding us in a difficult time, making us realize how wide-spread the Catholic Worker family is throughout the world. Every night, as a small group of us go into the house chapel to say the rosary and compline, we pray for the individuals who have asked most especially for prayers and for the living and the dead, believer and unbeliever, our own family, as well as our correspondents. And we pray with deep gratitude for those who send us help to enable us to do the work of hospitality. In the daytime you can see the wooded hillside from the chapel windows, where one of the men from the Bowery has cleared away underbrush so that the stone walls which terrace the hillside here and there are visible. The setting sun on these terraces colors the rocks a deep rose, and the trees come alive with light and color. My room faces the river, not the hill, and as I write this morning I look out at the Hudson River and marvel at how the Atlantic tide reaches all the way up to Tivoli and covers the rushes, which in turn cover the mud flats across the river.

  • THE LYDIAN GALE PARR (Draft)
    1 THE LYDIAN GALE PARR An incantation by Karinne Keithley Syers [email protected] THIS WORK IS IN PROGRESS SETTING: To be performed as an oratorio in some kind of ornate interior chamber, perhaps an embroidered tent. The event could also be thought of as a kind of Homeric TV opera. Possibly the layers of the event – the speech, the dancing, the images – are separated out in time, so that the live event is dedicated to listening, followed by photographic documentation received given after the performance, perhaps even sent in the mail, of the dances, and the images invoked. PERFORMERS: PART ONE: Two speakers PART TWO: All (dancing) PART THREE: The Lydian Gale Parr PART FOUR: present: a guide, the letter speakers as micro-chorus; recorded: a narrator, a correspondent PART FIVE: All as The Lydian Gale Parr CODA: All, led by micro-chorus 2 PART ONE: LETTER (The American) Performed by a pair of emissaries, speaking in almost-unison. Readings of the letter might be performed with a minute choreography of rib cage mobility, breath, chest collapse and expanse, recollection of épaulement (codified options for shoulder placement in ballet) or other classical or invented techniques of posture, lean, glance aversion, blinking, and actions of the lips that don’t involve speech. A double slash (//) in the middle of the line indicates two simultaneous lines to be spoken slightly differently by each of the speakers, according to whether they are standing on the right or left. Where the double slash is broken between the end of one line and the beginning of the next, those two lines are spoken simultaneously.

  • Rose Colored Blues” ​ ​
    ANDREW COMBS TO RELEASE CANYONS OF MY MIND APRIL 7 ​ ​ GARDEN & GUN PREMIERES NEW TRACK “ROSE COLORED BLUES” ​ ​ U.S. EAST COAST TOUR STARTS MARCH 30, EUROPEAN TOUR TO FOLLOW “One of Nashville’s most poetically gifted young singer-songwriters.” NPR Music ​ Andrew Combs is set to release his anticipated New West Records debut, Canyons Of My Mind, ​ on April 7, 2017. Garden & Gun premiered album track “Rose Colored Blues” yesterday, which ​ can be heard now Here, calling it “a freewheeling number that reframes the constant motion of ​ ​ touring—a common musician’s lament—in a positive light.” Combs adds, “It’s a romanticized version of being on the road. I wanted it to be lush, and to feel like you’re driving. The concept is something that’s always been very interesting to me: the whole idea of someone relishing their blues.” Combs will soon return to the road for a U.S. East Coast tour that begins next Thursday, March 30, before embarking on an extensive European tour throughout May. Please see below for full tour details with more dates to be announced soon. Inspired by the darker side of touring, the album single “Blood Hunters” previously premiered at Rolling Stone Country alongside a Ry Cox directed cinematic film, which can now be viewed/shared Here. The suspense-filled video tells the story of a hunter and his prey with nods ​ ​ to sci-fi and horror. Combs explains, “This one is about losing your mind. It came out in a haze of post tour blues; this being the 24-72 hours after you get home from tour in which you find yourself restless and somewhat deranged.

    DREAMS My Journey with Multiple Sclerosis By Kristie Salerno Kent DREAMS: MY JOURNEY WITH MULTIPLE SCLEROSIS. Copyright © 2013 by Acorda Therapeutics®, Inc. All rights reserved. Printed in the United States of America. Author’s Note I always dreamed of a career in the entertainment industry until a multiple sclerosis (MS) diagnosis changed my life. Rather than give up on my dream, following my diagnosis I decided to fight back and follow my passion. Songwriting and performance helped me find the strength to face my challenges and help others understand the impact of MS. “Dreams: My Journey with Multiple Sclerosis,” is an intimate and honest story of how, as people living with MS, we can continue to pursue our passion and use it to overcome denial and find the courage to take action to fight MS. It is also a story of how a serious health challenge does not mean you should let go of your plans for the future. The word 'dreams' may end in ‘MS,’ but MS doesn’t have to end your dreams. It has taken an extraordinary team effort to share my story with you. This book is dedicated to my greatest blessings - my children, Kingston and Giabella. You have filled mommy's heart with so much love, pride and joy and have made my ultimate dream come true! To my husband Michael - thank you for being my umbrella during the rainy days until the sun came out again and we could bask in its glow together. Each end of our rainbow has two pots of gold… our precious son and our beautiful daughter! To my heavenly Father, thank you for the gifts you have blessed me with.

  • ENG61-0611 Revelation, Chapter Five Part I
    REVELATION, CHAPTER FIVE PART I Thank you very much, Brother Neville. The Lord bless you, my brother. 2 Good morning, friends. It’s happy this morning, privilege, or a grand privilege, I should say, to be back here at the tabernacle again and to have this time set aside for our morning worship and fellowship around the Word of the Lord. I believe it was said one time, “I was happy when they said unto us, ‘Let us go to the house of the Lord.’” To be with Brother Neville again, and my good and precious friends. 3 And I guess it’s a little cool, or a little warm back there. And we have, I think, some fans that you can use with your hands this way. If—if…we got the fans if you’ve got the motor, so just to keep it moving. Or, we did have a bunch around here, I think they still have them. I see some using songbooks or what-more. And it’s…one thing we’re trying to have services for, is to dodge these places that are—are in the future that’s hot. So we’re…That’s why we’re here this morning, to bypass those places. And only one thing that can do that, that’s the Blood of our Lord Jesus Christ that does that. 4 And I was very happy to hear the good report of the church, that how it is progressing, going on with the Lord, and how God is dealing with you in spiritual gifts.
