Title: The Trial of Joan of Arc (Joan of Arc series: VI) Date: c. late 1909-early 1910 Medium: oil and gold leaf on canvas Dimensions: 75.57 × 171.45 cm (29 3/4 × 67 1/2 in.)

Clark Collection) Source/Photographer: https://purl.org/nga/collection/artobject/195567 Wikipedia “Soon after the siege of Orléans was lifted, Jean Gerson said that Joan’s male clothes and haircut were appropriate for her calling, as she was a warrior, and men’s clothes were more practical. “Cross-dressing may have helped her maintain her virginity by deterring rape and signaling her unavailability as a sexual object; scholars have stated that when she was imprisoned, wearing men’s clothes would have only been a minor deterrent to rape as she was shackled most of the time. “For most of her active life, Joan did not cross-dress to hide her gender. Rather, it may have functioned to emphasize her unique identity as La Pucelle [virgin or maiden], a model of virtue that transcends gender roles and inspires people.” The angels are genderless, not people. Joan said that God and the angels commanded her to wear men’s clothes. A lying saint? Don’t think so. Male and female saints are not historical footnotes. They are alive. Who do you think populates Heaven? Your pet cat? Our Lord did not come down, your cat to rescue.

Something like this theme song is what Alexander would like for our eBook when it is completed and becomes a movie ℗ 2010 Walt Disney Records. His vocabulary is very advanced, and today I finally succeeded in getting him to pronounce protocol correctly. It sounded like prodigal, which is very different. Our theory is that if you shoot for the stars, you might land on one. “[The film] is a 1953 American musical fantasy film about a boy who dreams himself into a fantasy world ruled by a diabolical piano teacher enslaving children to practice piano forever. “It was the only feature film written by Theodor Seuss Geisel (Dr. Seuss), who wrote the story, screenplay, and lyrics. It was directed by Roy Rowland, with many uncredited takes directed by producer Stanley Kramer.” archive.org/details/the_5000_fingers_of_dr_t My friend Bill sent me the link. The stage sequence has fantastical props. CBS fired and seized the files of anchor Catherine Herridge because she was following the Hunter Biden story.

Its largest institutional investors: the Vanguard Group, BlackRock, and State Street. Pretty much everything is copyrighted except Steamboat Willie, the original mouse. Three months in the making, July, August, and September 1928, the film portrays Mom, the disciplinarian.
“After moving to Germany with George Henry Lewes in 1854, Evans wrote to a friend explaining her views on the relationship: ‘Light and easily broken ties are what I neither desire theoretically nor could live for practically. Women who are satisfied with such ties do not act as I have done — they obtain what they desire and are still invited to dinner.’” -George Eliot, pen name for Mary Ann Evans, author of The Mill on the Floss, 1863, an excellent novel that has been dramatized many times. Sounds like Fani Willis. She is still invited to dinner, but she is no novelist, no giant. thriftbooks.com part 2, sad and beautiful, best movie on brother-sister loyalty
Supreme Court of Hawaii Rejects Authority of the U.S. Supreme Court … The case Hawaii v. Wilson deals with a man who was charged with a crime for carrying his firearm in public without a permit. A lower court sided with Wilson, citing the U.S. Supreme Court’s 2022 decision in Bruen, which upheld a right to carry firearms publicly. … The state’s Supreme Court asserted, “States retain the authority to require that individuals have a license before carrying firearms in public.” The opinion, authored by Judge Todd Eddins, grabbed attention for its strangely casual suggestion that the culture of the Founding Fathers is OBSOLETE. “The thing about the old days, they the old days,” the unanimous ruling said, quoting the HBO series The Wire. “As the world turns, it makes no sense for contemporary society to pledge allegiance to the founding era’s culture, realities, laws, and understanding of the Constitution.” … So, the past is obsolete, the Constitution is obsolete, a man’s rights are obsolete, and proper English in an official document is obsolete. Who cares about a one-party state, 2,471 nautical miles from another one-party state? OBSOLETE (adjective) - cause, product, or idea to be replaced with something new. I recommend he watch the 1960s Twilight Zone episode of the same, and that is the real reason I made the entry. Hibiscus is native to Mauritius, Madagascar, Fiji, and Hawaii. Are you glad you have spindly limbs making it difficult to burn the pages of the Constitution? I think that flower is obsolete.

Costs are shared by its members and the government, but as a payee, you have no voice. Kaiser will never ask your opinion, and you cannot object. This is most terrible for girls as they are rendered permanently sterile, which is another way to reduce population. The abortion industry targets black and Hispanic girls. The transgender industry targets white girls. Opinion: God is no longer present in society. The federal government, the government of California, Kaiser, Planned Parenthood, and many other corporate bodies have pushed Him out. They think there is no reason to pray for His help. When a butcher dies, he/she will face judgment. No one is exempt. God help them.

“Killing an Auxilary? That’s a strangling. Killing a Legionary? That’s a butchering. Killing an Auquilifer and almost causing the eagle standard to hit the ground? That’s a crucifixion.” -YT commenter AD 70 Scuta is the plural of the Latin word scutum and means shields. Is the USA Rome, or not? Well? The New Jerusalem? China Emmy, Grammy, Oscar, and Tony Awards (MMXXIII) Ball of Pu for him (plutonium) I’m going to sneak in a little Latin, my winner of the most beautiful language, to make this post worthwhile. Spes means hope, and that brings peace, and see how spes is like peace? Say it. Only the vowel sound changes from short e to long e. In German, Holy Ghost is Heiligen Geist. So, holy derives from heiligen, not sanctum. Therefore, it is inconsistent to pair holy with spirit, and that could persuade English speakers to recite the Creed in Latin for it being the more concise and poetic original language.
William Shatner, 92, is the latest target of the left. He says Hollywood is afraid of his character. We all know why. He loved women and won them all. Canceled like a priest! Thanks be to God Leonard Nimoy is dead. Surely, he would offend some alien. I just bought some pencils. I’m going to erase myself. Dialogue with the Carmelites
Religious women today
The traditional priestly orders are what’s left. Even some traditional Catholics are unmannered and soft in the head and think it is party time. Any Catholic who does not see that we are at the point of revolution and the catacombs need not call himself a Catholic. Restoration will happen after I’m dead. Until then, “There is no softness here.” Read the turbulent 20th century history that sent Carmel to San Francisco, CA, under Our Foundation:

What Is It that makes the Latin Language so pure & beautiful? “With minor exceptions, Latin pronunciation is as straightforward as is possible. There are precisely five key vowels and predictable consonant sounds that once learned can be replicated across the near entirety of the language. “English, for example, is not like this at all; we are rife with different rules and applications of those rules, because of our strange but endearing development as a language, which was a complicated process of mixing over the centuries. … “But it’s a good starting point for consideration that, in the providence of God’s overarching, mysterious sovereignty and His absolute knowing of beauty’s value for the souls He created, He saw fit to allow such a pure language to develop in precisely the right moment for the birth of the Church.” https://cassiaandmyrrh.com/on-the-beautiful-purity-of-the-latin-language/ The omnipresence of letters m and n, the humming letters, and qu, the beautiful kw sound, make the language most melodious.

Add Daniel Fernando Cardinal Sturla Berhouet, SDB, of Uruguay, 64, to the list of conservative bishops. He and I had good theater seats for The Mid-Century Destruction of Catholic Culture. If you missed it, here is an example of good entertainment before modernism. This is a radio version of the 1951 murder mystery, Thunder on the Hill, and was broadcast on 9/21/1968. Sister Mary Bonaventure, played by Flora Robson, matron in charge of a convent hospital ward in Norfolk County, England, must act quickly. Good climax. Dame Flora McKenzie Robson was in the 1939 American film, Wuthering Heights. She never married and lived with her two sisters. All three died inside of one year.
Listen to a report on Obama's production company. Yes, now he and his wife make movies. The claim is that their film, Leave the World Behind, is racist. Hear the language. "I'm asking you to remember that if the world should fall apart, trust should not be doled out easily to anyone, especially white people." https://www.prageru.com/video/obamas-anti-white-film-kid-rock-targets-taylor-swift-fl-investigates?utm_source=Iterable&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=campaign_8552236 Made wealthy by politics (not alone), the Obamas are unqualified moviemakers, unabashed separatists, and disgusting elitists. They spread hate. Look at this report on their wealth and that of other presidents, plus Al Gore, the vaunted Green King. You will discover no Catholic humility and self-sacrifice among the rapacious. https://finance.yahoo.com/news/obama-biden-other-elected-officials-120032914.html And if you want to argue with me about Trump, face FACTS. He made millions on his own long before entering the imprisoning world of politics and entertainment. Joaquin Phoenix/Ridley Scott Gone with the Wind (1939) - Battle of Atlanta (injuries) Zulu (1964) - Battle of Rorke's Drift (firing by ranks) One way to write crime fiction is to start with the conclusion and work backward, screwing up the plot as you go in reverse, and that, and the fact that no one went to San Francisco, are clues in this crime comedy, and that’s not a contradiction. I have a friend who works for a company that provides armed guards to businesses. He is hampered under present circumstances, and wants to move on. Next time I see him, ‘good instincts’, I will direct him to this international crime drama set amid people who blend and confuse. Undercover? One tiny continuity problem: when our protagonist gets knocked down, his hat falls off, and then it's back on.
In character, she answers a question in this Catholic film that is underway.
1951. All scenes were accurate except the house itself, a set piece. My nana taught at Garfield Elementary on Telegraph Hill and retired in 1958. This film furnished the idea for a switch in my novel.
