Croc and Escalator

I have not seen a brand that gets the compliments and rave reviews that Crocs shoes received. Not forgetting, there are many rubber clogs that resembled Crocs, but are actually an imitation brand. With slip-resistant soles, Crocs shoes were originally designed for boaters and fishermen to wear on slippery decks. Today, chefs, health care workers, custodians, and anyone who is on their feet a lot is enjoying the benefits of these shoes. To be objective, it is not just Crocs that pose a danger — any soft, pliable shoe, as can long and untied shoe laces, even flip-flops, can be dangerous on an escalator.  The best way for parents to safeguard their children on escalators is to recognize and to minimize the entrapment dangers.

Here are a few other features that make Crocs special:

• Available for men, women and kids.
• Offered in a huge array of colors.
• Totally Vegan
• Made from a material that softens and warms with your body heat, allowing the shoes to mold to your feet.
• Resistant to the fungus and bacteria that causes foot and shoe odor.
• Holes around the bottom of the vamp allow for plenty of ventilation, while allowing air, sand and water to pass through.
• Incredibly easy to clean, these shoes are ideal for garden work or other wet and messy conditions.

Parables are stories with the potential to disrupt the narrative of our lives – to point our life in a new direction. They can shake up what we know and push us – gently – into viewing the world and ourselves in a new way.

Here is a parable…………

Quote:

A holy man was having a conversation with God one day and said, ‘God, I would like to know what Heaven and Hell are like’.

God led the holy man to two doors. He opened one of the doors and the holy man looked in. In the middle of the room was a large round table. In the middle of the table was a large pot of stew, which smelled delicious and made the holy man’s  mouth water. The people sitting around the table were thin and sickly. They appeared to be famished. They were holding spoons with very long handles that were strapped to their arms and each found it possible to reach into the pot of stew and take a spoonful. But, because the handle was longer than their arms, they could not get the spoons back into their mouths. The holy man shuddered at the sight of their misery and suffering.

God said, ‘You have seen Hell.

They went to the next room and opened the door. It was exactly the same as the first one. There was the large round table with the large pot of stew which made the holy man’s mouth water. The people were equipped with the same long-handled spoons, but here the people were well nourished and plump, laughing and talking. The holy man said, ‘I don’t understand.’

‘It is simple,’ said God. ‘It requires but one skill. You see they have learned to feed each other, while the greedy think only of themselves.’ The greedy are always left unsatisfied with no matter how much they have achieved in life.

The photograph of Lady Liberty formed by 18,000 posed soldiers was taken in July 1918 at Camp Dodge, in Iowa, by photographers Arthur S. Mole & John D. Thomas. It was intended to help promote the sale of WW1 war bonds unfortunately, it was never used. In fact, during WW1 years Mole and Thomas had created incredible human images using thousands of soldiers or sailors dressed in woolen uniform to create images.

According to information, the design for the living picture was laid out at the drill ground at Camp Dodge, situated in the beautiful valley of the Des Moines River. Thousands of yards of white tape were fastened to the ground and formed the outlines on which 18,000 officers and men marched to their respective positions.

The day on which the photograph was taken was extremely hot,  neared 105 degrees F and the heat was intensified by the mass formation of men, and apparently some men fainted. The dimensions of the platting for the picture seem surprising. The camera was placed on a high tower. From the position nearest the camera occupied by Colonel Newman and his staff, to the last man at the top of the torch as platted on the ground was 1,235 feet, approximately a quarter of a mile. However, the appended figures below will give sufficient idea of the distorted proportions of the actual measurements for this photograph.

Base to Shoulder: 150 feet

Right Arm: 340 feet

Widest part of arm holding torch: 12 1/2 feet

Right thumb: 35 feet

Thickest part of body: 29 feet

Left hand length: 30 feet

Tablet in left hand: 27 feet

Face: 60 feet

Nose: 21 feet

Longest spike of head piece: 70 feet

Flame on Torch: 600 feet

Torch and flame combined: 980 feet

Number of men in flame of torch: 12,000

Number of men in torch: 2,800

Number of men in right arm: 1,200

Number of men in body, head and balance of figure only: 2,000

Total men: 18,000

Incredible as it may seem as there are twice the number of men in the flame of the torch as in the whole remaining design, while there are 8 times as many men in the arm, torch and flame as in all the rest of the figure. It is noted that the right thumb is five feet longer than the left hand, while the right arm, torch and flame is 8 times the length of the body.

Jack-Jack Attack is a 2005 short film produced by Pixar based upon their film The Incredibles. It was not given a theatrical release, but was included on the DVD release of the film.

The short is based on the youngest member of the superhero Parr family: the baby, Jack-Jack. Kari McKeen, Jack-Jack’s babysitter started experiencing difficulty with him shortly after hanging up the phone with his mother, Helen Parr (Mrs. Incredibles). Kari tries to calm Jack-Jack down by showing him flashcards. All goes well until she shows him a card of a campfire, causing Jack-Jack to burst into flames.

This short film shows Rick Dicker, a government agent assigned to aid “supers” in maintaining their anonymity, interrogating Kari about what happened when she was babysitting. During the interrogation Kari says she wishes she could forget the whole event, to which Mr. Dicker promises to help her to do so by erasing her memory.

Here are some popular ancient Chinese proverbs. Each proverb is a gem in its own right. The whole Chinese Proverb presentation is most inspirational although, thought-provoking.

Faith

This dog was born on Christmas Eve in the year 2002. He was born with two legs. He, of course, could not walk when he was born. Even his mother did not want him. His first owner did not think he could survive and was thinking of ‘putting him to sleep.’

His present owner Jude Stringfellow, in the beginning put Faith on a surfboard to let him feel the movement. Later, she used peanut butter on a spoon as a lure and reward for him for standing up and jumping around.

Now, Faith has becomes famous on the international scene and has appeared in newspapers and on Television shows. There is a book titled ‘With a Little Faith’ being published about him. What you may not realize is that Faith was given an Honorary Commission as an E5 SGT in the U.S. Army in June 2006. She was commissioned out of Ft. Lewis near Seattle, WA. There were many many soldiers and civilians in attendance who cheered her on as she accepted her Commission. She gives a lot of love and encouragement to the men and women of the Armed Forces.

Jude Stringfellow has given up her teaching post and plans to take Faith around the world to preach that even without a perfect body, one can have a ‘perfect soul.’

What is the moral behind the story?  “In life there are always undesirable things, so in order to feel better you just need to look at life from another angle. Nothing is Impossible”. Hopefully, this story will bring fresh, new ways of thinking to everyone and that everyone will appreciate and be thankful for each beautiful day. Faith is the continual demonstration of the strength and wonder of life, and  Is it not amazing what a little love with a little Faith can do…………

Absolutely amazing performance. A French performer utilizes bicycle horns to create music during his performance, mainly familiar songs.  He wears  a  horns suit when performing  for the audience. Enjoy!
