  In a time where the world seems more lost and confused, it’s important that we see clearly through the veils of the illusion to the Truth of God’s Love. 
    
  Inspiring words can sometimes be a catalyst to the opening of our Heart as we seek the ‘safe place’ externally. But it’s in the KNOWING that our Safe Place is within each of us and in our connection with God. We call this; The Christ Consciousness. 
    
  These song lyrics that I’ve written are filled with the Divine Mother’s nurturing and the Holy Father’s strength while I reach out for the Peace, Joy and Love of my return to the ultimate source of that love; to finally be Home with God.

  This first full-length account of the Darby School of Art overturns Philadelphia’s long-held unwarranted reputation as artistically stodgy—unwilling and unable to embrace Impressionism, post-Impressionist, and abstract art—and demonstrates that Philadelphia was more avant-garde in the early twentieth century than previously thought.
  
  This is the story of an almost completely forgotten summer art school that flourished first in Darby, PA, and then in Fort Washington, PA, between 1898 and 1918. The Darby School of Art was founded and operated by Thomas Anshutz and Hugh Breckenridge, two artists who taught during the academic year at the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts. Anshutz and Breckenridge brought a lot of new ideas about painting back to Philadelphia after their European sojourns, and introduced those ideas to a public that was initially not very responsive to Impressionism, Post-Impressionism, and semi-abstract art. But an appreciation for modern styles of painting began to slowly grow among Philadelphia artists and collectors, and Anshutz and Breckenridge were in the forefront of this development. They also sympathized with what some have called the "New Woman" movement, which backed women who wanted to pursue careers outside of the home.
  
  In this new history, expert Mark Sullivan argues that the Philadelphia area was a genuine hub of avant-garde painting in the early twentieth century, even though it has earned the reputation of lagging far behind New York City in its openness to new styles of painting. It also discusses how the Darby School should be recognized as an institution that got behind the idea of women as professional artists at a time when that concept was quite radical.

  Fugazi's In on the Kill Taker

  By June 1993, when Washington, D.C.'s Fugazi released their third full-length album In on the Kill Taker, the quartet was reaching a thunderous peak in popularity and influence. With two EPs (combined into the classic CD 13 songs) and two albums (1990's genre-defining Repeater and 1991's impressionistic follow-up Steady Diet of Nothing) inside of five years, Fugazi was on creative roll, astounding increasingly large audiences as they toured, blasting fist-pumping anthems and jammy noise-workouts that roared into every open underground heart. When the album debuted on the now-SoundScan-driven charts, Fugazi had never been more in the public eye.Few knew how difficult it had been to make this popular breakthrough. Disappointed with the sound of the self-produced Steady Diet, the band recorded with legendary engineer Steve Albini, only to scrap the sessions and record at home in D.C. with Ted Niceley, their brilliant, under-known producer. Inadvertently, Fugazi chose an unsure moment to make In on the Kill Taker: as Nirvana and Sonic Youth were yanking the American rock underground into the media glare, and “breaking” punk in every possible meaning of the word. Despite all of this, Kill Taker became an alt-rock classic in spite of itself, even as its defiant, muscular sound stood in stark contrast to everything represented by the mainstreaming of a culture and worldview they held dear.This book features new interviews with all four members of Fugazi and members of their creative community.

  SCHINDLER'S LIST 
  THE ULTIMATE TRIVIA COLLECTION 
    
  FROM THE MOVIE DIRECTED BY STEVEN SPIELBERG 
    
  CREATED BY FILM TRIVIA METAVERSE 
    
  ABOUT THE FILM 
  Schindler's List is a powerful historical drama directed by Steven Spielberg, set during the Holocaust. It follows Oskar Schindler, a German businessman who initially seeks profit by employing Jewish workers in his enamelware factory. As he witnesses the atrocities committed by the Nazis, Schindler transforms from an opportunist into a humanitarian, striving to save as many lives as possible. The film explores themes of morality, sacrifice, and the impact of one individual’s actions in the face of overwhelming evil. Shot in black and white, it emphasizes the stark, tragic realities of World War II and the Holocaust. 
    
  TRIVIA SAMPLES: 
    
  “To gather costumes for 20,000 extras, the costume designer took out advertisements seeking clothing. As economic conditions were poor in Poland, many people were eager to sell clothing they still owned from the 1930s and 1940s.” 
    
  “When survivor Mila Pfefferberg was introduced to Ralph Fiennes on the set, she began shaking uncontrollably, as he reminded her too much of the real Amon Goeth.” 
    
  “The original missing list of Schindler's Jews was found in a suitcase, along with his written legacy, hidden in the attic of Schindler's flat in Hildesheim in 1999. Oskar Schindler had stayed there during the last few months before his death in 1974.”
