• Yesterday at 12:04pm near Mount Carmel, IL • • Seen by 12 Georgia Dalrymple, Lizzie Irelan and 2 others like this. • Tim Stelzer Now I'm curious lol. 23 hours ago via mobile • Like • 1 • Nick Dalrymple I'll give people awhile to think about it. 22 hours ago via mobile • Like • Matthew Whale The top step with Dr. Schneck's name on it has been replaced. There is a moat between the good doctors name and the house. There is a walkway on the porch to let certain people come in. Is that it? 21 hours ago • Like • Tim Stelzer Dr. Schneck, before he retired, was Mt. Camel's version of the sadistic dentist in Little Shop of Horrors. Once the young Uncle Nick realized what he had gotten himself into, he successfully made his escape, physically unscathed, over the the drawbridge - the remnants can still seen on top of the porch. 20 hours ago via mobile • Like • 1 • Matthew Whale Schneck backwards is Kcenhcs, which means 'wild one' in Swahili. He was a wild one at night scaring all the people. The moat protects him from ladies because, as you know, they are made of sugar and when sugar gets put in water it melts. 20 hours ago • Like • Tim Stelzer Whoa! That's deep Matt!! And I'm not talking about the moat lol 19 hours ago via mobile • Like • Tim Stelzer I speak merely of your amazing powers of deductive reasoning Sir 19 hours ago via mobile • Like • Matthew Whale Talking is what Dr. Schnek did best. He soothed his clients (if you can call them that) to interest them. The doctor talked about a lot of things. He spoke of how high the sky was and how deep the earth is. Nobody knew the answer, not even Dr. Schneck but he didn't care. Snore, whistle, snore, whistle... what??? Dr. Schneck woke up and said he had the strangest dream to his wife. He got out of bed and had some tea and biscuits for breakfast. The End. 19 hours ago • Like • Matthew Whale ...oh, and Suzanne Pleshette knocked on Dr. Schnek's door. 19 hours ago • Edited • Like • Nick Dalrymple I wish Matt and Tim's stories were correct. The right answer is much simpler. Schneck is what my older four brother and sisters called me while I was growing up. It is a combination of Shaun and Nick. 15 hours ago via mobile • Like • 2 • Georgia Dalrymple Hehe..... there's that "vowel problem" again...I know "Schneck" sounds the same to you as "Schnick"...but that's just one more reason I love you!

Breakfast With a Friend Richard Feynman discusses his thoughts about what makes something beautiful in one of his essays.* Knowing more about something only adds to its beauty. It doesn’t take something away. I thought about this while in Brown County, Indiana this weekend. As we neared the park we drove through a deep road cut in the hillside showing layers of rock going back millions of years. Brown County’s hills were formed as glacial melt cut through layers of sandstone, siltstone and shale that an ancient river delta had deposited. Artisans in Nashville use the local sandstone and concretions in their art. Knowing something of geology and the geological history of the area only helped me better enjoy their beauty. To the casual observer it would seem these valleys were forested forever as they are now, but as you examine the varieties of trees you begin to recognize this isn’t a virgin forest. Mostly missing are oaks and walnut. The forests were cut nearly bare over 100 years ago. Wood was used for the railroad, for homes and for furniture shipped out east. Around the turn of the century conservations began to buy the land and reforest it. The current forest is beautiful at over 100 years old. There are still furniture makers in Nashville who use the local timber, but burl oak of the old forest is many times more expensive than similar pieces made from the common trees there today. My thanks to Bob Vaiden and Scott Wiesbroo for teaching me about geology and soils. I found the information interestingly presented and already useful this past weekend. *“I have a friend who's an artist and has sometimes taken a view which I don't agree with very well. He'll hold up a flower and say "look how beautiful it is," and I'll agree. Then he says "I as an artist can see how beautiful this is but you as a scientist take this all apart and it becomes a dull thing," and I think that he's kind of nutty. First of all, the beauty that he sees is available to other people and to me too, I believe. Although I may not be quite as refined aesthetically as he is ... I can appreciate the beauty of a flower. At the same time, I see much more about the flower than he sees. I could imagine the cells in there, the complicated actions inside, which also have a beauty. I mean it's not just beauty at this dimension, at one centimeter; there's also beauty at smaller dimensions, the inner structure, also the processes. The fact that the colors in the flower evolved in order to attract insects to pollinate it is interesting; it means that insects can see the color. It adds a question: does this aesthetic sense also exist in the lower forms? Why is it aesthetic? All kinds of interesting questions which the science knowledge only adds to the excitement, the mystery and the awe of a flower. It only adds. I don't understand how it subtracts.” Richard Feynman I’m working on my Master Naturalist Certification. While walking the dog just before dawn this morning I made a big breakthrough. I discovered a new constellation in the south eastern sky. In honor of all the insects I see around the Dogbane when it is in bloom, I am naming the constellation The Butterfly. If you are out shortly before dawn this month, look for the butterfly about 30 degrees up in the south east. Unfortunately I don’t have a camera that can take pictures of the stars so I have drawn a picture.
Robert Reich
“CEO pay surged 16% last year and the typical CEO raked in $15.1 million. Meanwhile, the median wage continued to drop, adjusted for inflation. You and I and other taxpayers are subsidizing sky-high executive compensation because corporations deduct it from their income taxes, causing the rest of us to pay more in taxes to make up the difference. When he was campaigning for the presidency, Bill Clinton promised that if elected he’d end the deductibility of executive pay in excess of $1 million, but once in office modified his pledge to allow corporations to deduct pay over $1 million if linked to corporate performance. Since then, corporations have gamed the system -- giving out performance awards on the basis of nothing more than an upward drift in the value of the stock market as a whole, back-dating executive stock options to match past dips in the companies’ share price, and setting the performance bar so artificially low that executives are almost guaranteed to beat the threshold. The Economic Policy Institute estimates that between 2007 and 2010, more than $121 billion in executive compensation was deducted from corporate earnings, and roughly 55 percent of this was for performance-based compensation. Given all the games, it’s likely much of this “performance” was baloney. As I argued (unsuccessfully) 20 years ago, we should get rid of the performance-pay loophole and keep the cap at $1 million. Executive pay in excess of $1 million shouldn’t be deductible from corporate taxes, period. (If you agree, you might want to write to the White House and to Sen. Max Baucus, urging that this be included in any tax reform legislation.) PS: Under Dodd-Frank, the SEC was supposed to have issued a rule requiring corporations to disclose the ratio of the pay of its highest-paid executive to its average worker, but the SEC still hasn't moved on this.” And corporations not only want me to donate my art, they want me to pay for matting and framing! ----- Forwarded Message ----- From: Nicholas Dalrymple <ngdalrymple@sbcglobal.net> To: "opencallforartists@picture-that.com" <opencallforartists@picture-that.com> Sent: Thursday, July 18, 2013 7:33 AM Subject: GEVN_DalrympleNick_SaintJosephIl REQUIRED ITEMS 1. Artist name: Nick Dalrymple 2. Telephone #: 217-621-1030 3. Email: ngdalrymple@sbcglobal.net 4. Website address: nickshome.weebly.com 5. Bio: Biography: I only create art for myself, but I am thrilled when others are moved by it. Vietnam veteran, student, husband, teacher, artist, jack-of-all- trades, science presenter, parent, grandparent, retired ; but not finished. 6. Artist statement: “Family, Community, Country “ “The key to change …… is to let go of fear” – Rosanne Cash I went to the doctor yesterday and I noticed that my file had been flagged as “ELDERLY.” Many years ago my art was free flowing and spontaneous. As I grow older, my work is more thoughtful and structured. When I was younger my art came “as is.” Now I will revise and diddle until time for submission. This works best for me when I am asked to create an object for a specific event or theme, but I don’t think it makes better art. For this piece about veterans in transition I spent quite a bit of time looking for old family pictures to illustrate the concept. Time flows from youth to maturity, and then starts the cycle again. I am very pleased with it. I hope you enjoy it too. |
