The middle pic should be titled 'The Althouse Vortex.'

And who shall stop the confluence
And convergence and divergence
And neverending flowing together
And flowing apart of water and sky?

Man! Man shall stop it. Man shall freeze it.
Not because it is not beautiful in its constant flux.
It is heartbreakingly beautiful unbearably beautiful
And must be captured, must be caught.

Away flows the water away flows the sky
Away walks the young girl with the flowing hair,
All are comely and mute and forever flowing
And only Man feels their stab in his heart.

Prof, are you still planning on creating a poll about the progression of 'Ground Zero, Mosque, Muslim-themed gay bar,...'?

My personal favorite was the Muhammed art museum.

Sure are a lot of clouds in northern Wisconsin today. I believe that the Packers are playing the Browns at Lambeau Field tonight. Good idea to enjoy the green forests around Green Bay while it is still warm.

We did a trip there, oh about12 years ago and, luckily, timed, following storms that flooded the area during what should have been the dry season. The falls was awsome with all that water.

The first was the best.

'Near that place are some islands, on the shores of which are often found Rocks of Copper, and even slabs of the same material'

Thus wrote Father Dablon in 1669. He alluded to the Apostle Islands near Chequamegon Point. He continues as follows:

'Last Spring we bought from the Savages a Slab of pure Copper two feet square, and weighing more than a hundred livres (100 pounds troy weight).'
