“I love you without knowing how, or when, or from where. I love you simply, without problems or pride: I love you in this way because I do not know any other way of loving but this, in which there is no I or you, so intimate that your hand upon my chest is my hand, so intimate that when I fall asleep your eyes close.”

Billie Jean King and Caitlin Cahow Sochi Tokens

There you have it!!!

O-blog-dee-o-blog-da

By Cathy Kristofferson, December 17, 2013

President Obama has chosen the official U.S. delegation to head to the Sochi Olympic Games in Russia. No POTUS, FLOTUS, VPOTUS, or any other OTUS.  However there will be one out athlete at the opening ceremony and another out athlete at the closing ceremony; Billie Jean King and Caitlin Cahow, both lesbians. Each represent sports the Russians enjoy and excel at- tennis and ice hockey. King has been an Olympic coach and Cahow is a two-time Olympic medalist. Billie Jean was one of the first out athletes back in 1981 and Cahow is probably one of the latest to come out just last month. We can only but wonder whether the two delegates will be willing to be spokespersons for LGBT human rights and whether or not they will seize this opportunity to speak out against the Russian government’s anti-gay laws and mistreatment of…

International Day to End Violence Against Sex Workers – 17th December

A day …. to not forget!!!

Ruth Jacobs

I wanted to write something for International Day to End Violence Against Sex Workers but I didn’t think I could as I’ve been in too much of a dark place these last few weeks with my own suffering from the repercussions of sexual violence. I wanted to go to London to stand in solidarity with sex workers and allies to mark this day, but for the same reasons, tonight, I couldn’t do that either. Then I felt selfish wrapped up with my own pain when tonight there will be women in the sex trade who will be raped, who will be beaten and some will be murdered. So I have to say this…

Violent men think they can beat, rape and murder women in the sex trade because they do not have the protection of the police and recourse to justice. Then there are some feminists who say all sex work is…

Full Cold Moon …. December 17, 2013.

The final Full Moon of 2013 occurs tonight, and along with it comes something special: the most distant and visually smallest Full Moon of 2013.

Why doesn’t the annual “mini-moon” receive the same fanfare and hype that the yearly perigee – or do you say Proxigean to be uber-obscure – “supermoon” does? The smallest Full Moon of the year does appear to have a public relations problem in this regard.

But as you’ll see, the circumstances for this week’s Full Moon are no less fascinating.

The exact timing of tonight’s Full Moon occurs at 4:28 AM EST/9:28 Universal Time (UT) on Tuesday, December 17^th. This occurs just two days and 14 hours prior to the Moon reaching apogee on December 19^th at 6:50PM EST/23:50 UT at 406,267 kilometres distant. This is one of the three most distant apogees of 2013, and the closest to Full for the year. It’s also with 500 kilometres of the most distant apogee than can occur, as the Moon’s apogee can vary between ~404,000 and 406,700 kilometres distant.

Tonight’s Full Moon will have an apparent angular diameter of around 29.8’ arc minutes, just a shade lower than the usual value quoted of around half a degree or 30’. The visual size of the Moon as seen from the Earth varies about 12% from 34.1’ to 29.3’. Also, the Moon is also about half an Earth radius more distant when it’s on the local horizon versus at the zenith overhead!

In between breaks in the clouds this evening, if you can, sneak a quick peak at tonight’s full moon, the last of 2013.  It will rise at 4:35 p.m., reaches fullness at 4:28 a.m. (although by then it may be too cloudy to see), and sets at 7:16 a.m. EST.

The ultimate full moon of 2013 has been named the Cold Moon, the Long Night Moon, and the Moon Before Yule – for reasons that are obvious given the calendar.

It is not only the last full moon of 2013, but also the smallest.  It’s the full moon that most closely coincides with the most distant point in the moon’s orbit known as the apogee, which will make it appear smaller and duller than the typical full moon. These are the opposite circumstances of the supermoon.

Secret Garden- Song from a Secret Garden

Uploaded on Jan 2, 2009

This is the third song from Secret Gardens album Songs From a Secret Garden, from 1995.

“The idea of Secret Garden is one that everyone can relate to.

We all have landscapes inside us, secret rooms where feelings and impressions grow as a little garden. We have individual ways of finding this garden. Some talk about it, write poems or letters, paint, or even talk a walk to reflect over life. We all have our own way.

But what is common to us, is a strong emotional feeling that is an essential part of our nature. My way of dealing with this is through music, and everything I write comes from my secret garden. This simple piece had no other name than Pianopiece in C Minor for many years.

But when the Secret Garden project evolved, I felt this piece could express the essence of my ideas – the simple melody strait from the heart, expressed through Fionnualas soulful, vulnerable and naked violin playing.”

~~Rolf Lovland~~

We ALL are connected through NATURE!!
