Doctors Give Bush High Marks on Physical

By DEB RIECHMANN
BETHESDA, Md. (AP) - President Bush was pronounced ``fit for duty'' after an annual checkup Saturday that showed that the 59-year-old commander in chief, an avid mountain bike rider, has lost 8 pounds since his last physical exam in December.

``I'm feeling pretty good,'' Bush said as he left the National Naval Medical Center in suburban Washington.

In December, Bush weighed 199.6 pounds, six pounds more than in the summer of 2003. He attributed the weight gain to munching too many doughnuts during his re-election campaign.

On Saturday, the scale showed the nearly 6-foot Bush at 191.6 pounds.
A four-page medical summary issued by the White House said Bush remains in the ``superior'' fitness category for a man of his age.

A separate statement signed by nine doctors who conducted the physical said there is ``every reasonable expectation that he will remain fit for duty for the duration of his presidency.''

Doctors prodded and probed the president for a little more than three hours, checking his heart, lungs, eyes, muscles and skin.

Doctors used liquid nitrogen to freeze a noncancerous skin growth on his neck so they could remove it. The medical summary indicated the president has skin lesions consistent with sun damage and recommended that he use sun screen and wear a hat.

Bush scored above average on a wide range of tests.

Bush's overall cholesterol count remains at a healthy level, despite a slight rise to 178 from 170 seven months ago. There was a small drop in his high-density lipoprotein (HDL) count, or ``good'' cholesterol, and a small rise in his low-density lipoprotein (LDL) or ``bad'' cholesterol. Still, both levels were within healthy ranges.

Doctors said cholesterol-lowering drugs were not necessary. The president was advised to continue healthy eating and exercise habits.

``He's in superior health,'' White House spokesman Dana Perino told reporters after Bush returned to the White House. ``I think you all know he's got a terrific fitness routine. It's a good example for Americans.''

The president's medical profile shows a low to very low risk of coronary artery disease. His resting pulse rate dropped to 47 beats per minute from 52. Well-trained athletes typically have resting pulse rate of between 40 and 60 beats per minute.

Doctors made Bush run on a treadmill for more than 26 minutes as part of a test that evaluates the performance of his heart. His heart beat reached 183 beats per minute; no signs or symptoms of cardiovascular problems were noted.

Other information from Bush's checkup included:

His body fat percentage fell to 15.79 from 18.25. It was 14.5 percent at his physical in August 2003.

His ability to see at a distance was 20/20 in both eyes. He uses reading glasses at times to see more clearly up-close.

A prostate screening test registered at 0.5. A desirable level is anything under 4.

Bush suffers from occasional reflux of stomach acid after drinking coffee or eating peppermint, two items that doctors recommended he reduce or eliminate from his diet.

His exercise regimen includes pedaling his mountain bike at up to 18 miles an hour for 15 miles to 20 miles a week; doing low-impact ``hill work'' on a treadmill; and free weight resistance training and stretching.

He smokes a cigar now and then, takes a daily multivitamin, low-dose aspirin, Omega 3 fatty acids linked to lower heart disease and glucosamine/chondroitin to ease stiffness in his joints.

The president stopped running a few years ago and took up biking because of knee problems. He has a history of injuries related to physical activity, including scrapes and bruises when he has fallen from his bike. In July 2004, for instance, he escaped serious injury when he sailed over the handlebars during a ride at his Texas ranch.

On weekends in Washington, Bush often rides at Secret Service training facilities in the area.

He fell this month and collided with a police officer when he took a spin on his bike in Scotland where he was attending an economic summit.

Presiding over the medical exam were White House physician Richard Tubb and Dr. Kenneth Cooper, the president of the Cooper Aerobics Center in Dallas. Seven other doctors included a radiologist, two skin specialists and a sports physician.

After his exam, Bush met for more than an hour with 15 Marines wounded in Iraq. He awarded seven Purple Hearts.

``It's a remarkable experience to meet with these incredibly courageous souls who keep their spirit,'' Bush said before flying back to the White House aboard Marine One. ``I met with their parents. I met with the healers who work here at Bethesda.''

20 Years Older Than Me

I like men who are 20 years older than me (approx.) the men
From that generation- must be where their plutos are er something
Moocow, my 1st REAL love,
The King Of Hawaii, allways right here in my heart li'dat,
Gary of the Irrigation Experted Welsh, father of Yoda,
Bearcat Man, that crazy intense Ben Franklinish dude,
And Billy.

Billy could make me laugh. He could get me very high Billy could
Cause the blood to run through my veins in a different way than it is used to Billy.
Billy I can treat the same way I treat the other big boys,
By being myself, and they love me more that way
The way I talk to whoever I want whenever I want I
Move at my own pace (how about that) don't
Respond right away when they beckon me or
Snap to it for anything I don't
Hurry for them, automatically agree with them, always look at them when they talk when they ask me
What I want I tell them, unsheepishly, if I feel even a little held back in this regard I know the dude ain't grown-up enough
For me to hang with, relaxed, just a LITTLE on stage just enough to pleasure them, un,
Unpretentious. Untense.
One touch. I turn.
Fire is the hot immediate vortex when all day you've
Ebbed and flowed & not fucked with eachother's rythems when you have
Alternatly flirted & 'dissapeared' from eachother when you
When you have talked,you have talked about things that matter, when you
Have done the day like that,
The night is a blaze-and- do not underestimate "the old men"
They know what the fuck they're doing and
They don't stand on ceremonies and
They don't get extra status with any homeboyz or whatever by treating you like a whore and they
Are NOT afraid ashamed or uptight about treating you like a whore
When you ask em' nice
To do so. They will.
They'll take you the way they want without constantly fucking asking you if
"This is alright,
This feels good," and, (THANKFULLY), "did you come?" My mature men
They do not waste stupid words, they
Are there like I am- there is no question when my breathing changes
And I am pulsing on them and
They are sudden sliding more heat I want their lips on mine when I am peaking
Shuddering and my old men know this and
The older men love to fuckin kiss and
Just thinking of how blessed I've been, as I sit here in late July morning, excites me,
Who knows what is up anymore
I just know
My own breathing
Has been monitored
For signs of life
There are 3 firfighting units outside the monitoring station now
The sensors went off their scales as I
Went off the deepend my men.

Make me SO FUCKIN HAPPY when I want them and I want them since they
Leave me alone when
I want them to do so
And I don't gotta ask for shit
And I don't gotta use a lot of words and
I do love them between my legs, in my heart, on the surface area of my life.

John H. Ostrom, a Yale University paleontologist who advanced the theory that birds descended from dinosaurs and was credited for a discovery of a small carnivorous dinosaur in 1964, has died. He was 77.

Ostrom also was known for reintroducing an idea first advanced a century ago that birds are the most logical descendants of dinosaurs.


In 1999, a symposium was held in Ostrom's honor called ``New Perspectives on the Origin and Early Evolution of Birds.''


``When I first suggested there was a connection between birds and dinosaurs, they said, 'There goes John again.' Now it's up to them to show why dinosaurs are not related to birds,'' Ostrom said at the time.

But by Wednesday, tourists who had decided not to cancel their vacations were returning slowly to the beaches as many hotels announced that they were reopening after suffering only minor damages.


At the Westin Cancun, which was hosting nearly 700 guests when Emily hit, employees handed out ``I survived Emily'' certificates and had a contest in which guests were asked to write: ``If you had to evacuate your room, what would you have taken and why?'' Winners were to receive free lodging, dinners and spa treatments.


Residents of poor areas near the resorts in Cancun and Playa del Carmen continued to assess the damage to their flimsy thatched-hut homes.

Once upon a time, in a dark scary room or road or basement or attic or

There was a Very Precious And Beautiful Woman who scrubbed floors for a non-living, while all the while dreaming of unlimited truffles,
Whenever and WHEREever she wanted them,
The chocolaty ones before supper and throughout each resplendant floor-washing free day, and the mushroomy ones in supper. No no no,one meal is enough she will say then, since she will not be so hungry causa burning calories washing endless floors and also because of she'll be having too much fun LIVING to pause too often for MEALS,
Although there's always time for truffles
(the chocolaty ones) and they don't even NEED pausin or sittin down to appreciate they can be popped into the mouth on the go and enjoyed on the move
Yeah (!) goin movin glidin slidin truckin to her funs
Her FUNS WHILE LIVING
Yeah, glidin slidin movin groovin to festivals;
Ren faires, music camp-out weekends, county fairs, 4th of July extravaganzas, frog jumpin' contests,
OUT of dark scary
(rooms roads basements attics or....)
Where she never sees if she really did a good job on the scary floors anyway-prancin dancin eyelash batting/fluttering, YEAH, snowboarding, surfing
INTO THE LIGHT you know(!) YES-she'll go in such varied and fun-sounding ways to
Operas, art museums, old dinosaur-bone keepin museums,
On trains,planes, buses, trolley cars, 18-wheelers with silly truckers that are way smarter than most people paint them as being to-
Water parks, theme parks, movie studio parks, corney pretentious overpriced overcolored really made for kids parks, big city parks you should never go into at night even in a group (and in these she'd go, ALONE for her evening stroll) after all doesn't she
Know what it's like to be in WAY darker places hasn't she
Braved the scarier-than-any-urban-park-in-the-whole-entire-of-the-world places without her even CHOOSING it and also hasn't she
(From time to time) been TRAPPED IN THEM!!!!! PARKS you can run out of. PARKS have street lamps, and sometimes tract lighting 'long the borders of pools and fountains and such. They can NEVER be as dark as the places she's been
Mopping. Wipeing anymore actually, with a shredding rotting cloth, on hands and knees.


Once upon a time, in a warm beautiful old church, perhaps made of brick or field stone or warm-colored wood or 10thousand million dreams of Precious Women or.......
There was a Very Loving And Resiliant woman
Gently washing the floors with what was left of an old cloth, when she found a chinese-fortune-paper that had somehow not only ESCAPED from its cookie, but COMPLETLY DISTANCED ITSELF from it
(She knew this because she alays thouroughly swept before she 'mopped') (and she had seen no cookie in the dustpan))
She
(Curious as to how her accurate and efficiant and resplendant and also friendly broom had missed that prophecy-employed paper there, under the kneeler on the 18th row on the left by the stained glass picture of Jesus handing a sheep and a bale of hay to Peter, smiling a grin that was way too big) (though she was not curious if Peter was getting Jesus's non-verbal message as the sun streamed through him and hit the part of the floor her right hand was leaning on cause of course he had, gee ANYone no matter how dense would) she
Grabbed for the slip of paper with her left hand,
Only a little annoyed at herself over missing it and not at all resentful and/or blaming towards the already stored-back-away-where-it-is-supposed-to-go broom,
Grabbed grasped pinchered retrieved the tiny message
Flipped it over and smiled.

She walked out of the church, leaving the cloth and the small wash bucket right where it was under the certainly-nonclueless Peter, "maybe he'll use it for the tending part after all sheep like a good rubdown from time to time" she might have thought if she wasn't so busy feeling or if she had not been so busy moving forward that she had looked back, and seen his Gentle Magical Hand reach down and take it into the glassine magical realm where there's always plenty of hay and he was with his best friend,
Through the doors and into the light she
Walked, smiling, a smile that was even better than Jesus's cause hers was just plain joyful with no agendas and/or hidden messages,
Carrying only her tiny fortune-from-God banner
And her new knowledge,
She walked. Strolled. Smiled. Glided. Out.

In fact, as the sun finally hit her face on that Precious and also Amazingly Outstandingly
Beautiful Day,
She laughed.

Once upon a time, forever.

Stunning Find Behind a da Vinci Painting:

A new Leonardo da Vinci drawing has been found hidden beneath the surface of one of the artist's most honored works, "The Virgin of the Rocks," report the BBC News and Reuters. The painting, which stands 6 feet-two inches tall, shows the Virgin Mary kneeling in a cave with the infant Jesus and Saint John.

Da Vinci painted two versions of "The Virgin of the Rocks," one in 1483 and one in 1508. What is thought to be the superior of the two hangs in The Louvre in Paris, while the other hangs in Britain's National Gallery. The stunning find was under the British painting.

It was while the curators were studying how da Vinci copied his original painting that they found the uncompleted drawing. Infrared scanning allowed them to see through the layers of paint on the picture hanging in the London gallery.
Interestingly, there were two levels of drawings under the painting. One was for "The Virgin of the Rocks," while the other was for a different painting altogether showing the Virgin kneeling with a downcast gaze. She holds one hand to her breast and dramatically stretches out the fingers of her other hand so that they meet the picture edges. The fact that the drawing is so different than the painting has a special meaning. "You can never call this a straightforward copy again because Leonardo clearly wanted to start something new," National Gallery curator Luke Syson told BBC radio.

Why did da Vinci paint "The Virgin of the Rocks" twice? The first one was commissioned in 1483 by the Milanese Confraternity of the Immaculate Conception for a chapel altarpiece. Upon completion, the artist demanded a large bonus, which the Confraternity refused to pay. So da Vinci sold it elsewhere. This is the one that hangs in The Louvre. Years later, the Confraternity asked da Vinci for a replacement, which is the one that is now in Britain. The researchers believe that the Confraternity rejected da Vinci's new idea and demanded he repaint the one they had originally commissioned. "I suspect he was forced to abandon this new very beautiful idea," Syson told the BBC. "In a way it's a terrible pity."

Now Playing: How God Sends Me To TESTIFY
Topic: Mission For God
Aloha. I am a woman from Hawaii who has been on a fact finding/gathering journey and a comforting mission walking across the country since Oct. 2004. I was in Gulfport 2 months ago, and found one 'center' where people who have found themselves disenfranchised from 'society as we know it' could have shelter from excessive heat/cold/RAINSTORMS-HURRICANES, leave their belongings for the day, take a shower, and be 'human beings' instead of 'those visible homeless people'.
This 'center' unfortunatly, has just closed down. I have just returned from D.C. to help (Red cross voluteer) with the impending storms, and have been faced with this terrible event.
The organization that closed this shelter is a muti-billion dollar not-for-profit. HOW COULD THIS HAPPEN?
Gulfport, PLEASE realize that it is in your best interest to find a place for those who, like most of us would/will be in one or two paychecks if laid off or fired or victem of one disaster, have found themselves in this terrible situation. To have people (trying to) sleep in parks and alleyways, with all their stuff, and no showers and/or bathrooms... well...
Forget about job applications and interviews. No more place to get phone messages. You will lose many of your 'fellows' through death, and other terrible things,and suffer in-your-face negligent cruelty. I pray that all those reading this with compassionate caring hearts rally to correct this awful situation.

The above letter was sent to The Sun Herald.... anon e-mail 750 words or less column... tonight.... just hours from now... to beach ministry/weekly barbeque here James has loaded cassette recorder and has known current mayor here since childhood.... we shall collect testimonies re: shutdown and then give'em..... in DC G.W. asked me to stay awhile before/after Barb and Sr. came to see what's up in this regard in DC in my way.... there just happened to be a major collition symposium/policy setting/lawmaking historical event happening then and of course I got to

TESTIFY. Have gained SO MUCH information... tooo much for most folks but then again it is

Me. Me who has learned how to laugh in the crying rain.


I AM DOING THE WILL OF THE PEOPLE.... I SHALL DIE DOING IT IF I MUST BUT I'D RATHER LIVE AND I HOPE I SEE YOU SOON LOVE

ALANIS MORISSETTE


That I Would Be Good

that I would be good even if i did nonthing
that I would be good even if i got the thumbs down
that I would be good if i got and stayed sick
that I would be good even if I gained ten pounds

that I would be fine even if I went bankrupt
that I would be good if I lost my hair and my youth
that I would be great if I was no longer Queen
that I would be grand if I was not all knowing

that I would be loved even when I numb myself
that I would be good even when I am overwhelmed
that I would be loved even when i was fuming
that I would be good even if I was clingy

that I would be good even if I lost sanity
that I would be good
whether with or without you


ALANIS MORISSETTE


You Learn

I recommend getting your heart trampled on to anyone
I recommend walking around naked in your living room
Swallow it down (what a jagged little pill)
It feels so good (swimming in your stomach)
Wait until the dust settles

CHORUS:
You live you learn
You love you learn
You cry you learn
You lose you learn
You bleed you learn
You scream you learn

I recommend biting off more than you can chew to anyone
I certainly do
I recommend sticking your foot in your mouth at any time
Feel free
Throw it down (the caution blocks you from the wind)
Hold it up (to the rays)
You wait and see when the smoke clears

REPEAT CHORUS

Wear it out (the way a three-year-old would do)
Melt it down (you're gonna have to eventually anyway)
The fire trucks are coming up around the bend

REPEAT CHORUS

You grieve you learn
You choke you learn
You laugh you learn
You choose you learn
You pray you learn
You ask you learn
You live



ALANIS MORISSETTE


Uninvited

Like anyone would be
I am flattered by your fascination with me
Like any hot-blooded woman
I have simply wanted an object to crave
But you, you're not allowed
You're uninvited
An unfortunate slight

Must be strangely exciting
To watch the stoic squirm
Must be somewhat heartening
To watch shepherd need shepherd
But you you're not allowed
You're uninvited
An unfortunate slight

Like any uncharted territory
I must seem greatly intriguing
You speak of my love like
You have experienced love like mine before
But this is not allowed
You're uninvited
An unfortunate slight

I don't think you unworthy
I need a moment to deliberate



ALANIS MORISSETTE


PRINCES FAMILIAR

please be philosophical
please be tapped into your femininity
please be able to take the wheel from me
please be crazy and curious

papa love your princess so that she will find loving princes familiar
papa cry for your princess so that she will find gentle princes familiar

please be a sexaholic
please be unpredictably miserable
please be self absorbed much (not the good kind)
please be addicted to some substance

papa listen to your princess so that she will find attentive princes familiar
papa hear your princess so that she will find curious princes familiar
please be the jerk of my knee I've fit you always
you finish my sentences I think I love you
what is your name again no matter i'm guessing your thoughts again correctly
and I love the way
you press my buttons so much sometimes I could strangle you

papa laugh with your princess so that she will find funny princes familiar
papa respect your princess so that she will find respectful princes familiar

please be strangely enigmatic
please be just like my


ALANIS MORISSETTE


THESE ARE THE THOUGHTS

These are the thoughts that go through my head
in my backyard on a sunday afternoon
when I have the house to myself and I am not
expending all that energy on fighting
with my boyfriend
Is he the one that I will marry
and why is it so hard to be objective about
myself why do I feel cellularly alone
am I supposed to live in this crazy city
can blindly continued fear-induced regurtitated life-denying tradition
be overcome

Where does the money go that I send
to those in need, if we have so much why do some people have nothing
still why do I feel frantic when I first wake up in the morning
why do you say you are spiritual, yet you treat people like shit

How can you say you're close to God, and yet you talk behind
my back as though I'm not a part of you, why do I say "I'm fine"
when it's obvious I'm not, why's it so hard to tell you what I want
why can't you just read my mind?

Why do I fear that the quieter I am
the less you will listen
why do I care whether you like me or not
why's it so hard for me to be angry
why is it such work to stay conscious and so easy to get stuck
and not the other way around

Will I ever move back to Canada
Can I be with a lover with whom I am a student
and a master, oh why am I encouraged to shut my mouth
when it gets too close to home, why cannot I
live in the moment


ALANIS MORISSETTE


Head Over Feet

I had no choice but to hear you
You stated your case time and again
I thought about it

You treat me like I'm a princess
I'm not used to liking that
You ask how my day was

CHORUS:
You've already won me over in spite of me
Don't be alarmed if I fall head over feet
Don't be surprised if I love you for all that you are
I couldn't help it
It's all your fault

Your love is thick and it swallowed me whole
You're so much braver than I gave you credit for
That's not lip service

REPEAT CHORUS

You are the bearer of unconditional things
You held your breath and the door for me
Thanks for your patience

You're the best listener that I've ever met
You're my best friend
Best friend with benefits
What took me so long

I've never felt this healthy before
I've never wanted something rational
I am aware now
I am aware now

REPEAT CHORUS

21 Things I Want in a Lover

Do you derive joy when someone else succeeds?
Do you not play dirty when engaged in competition?
Do you have a big intellectual capacity but know
That it alone does not equate wisdom?
Do you see everything as an illusion?
But enjoy it even though you are not of it?
Are you both masculine and feminine? politically aware?
And don't believe in capital punishment?

These are 21 things that I want in a lover
Not necessarily needs but qualities that I prefer

Do you derive joy from diving in and seeing that
Loving someone can actually feel like freedom? are you funny?
?? la self-deprecating? like adventure? and have many formed opinions?

These are 21 things that I want in a lover
Not necessarily needs but qualities that I prefer
I figure I can describe it since I have a choice in the matter
These are 21 things I choose to choose in a lover

I'm in no hurry I could wait forever
I'm in no rush cuz I like being solo
There are no worries and certainly no pressure in the meantime
I'll live like there's no tomorrow

Are you uninhibited in bed? more than three times a week?
Up for being experimental? are you athletic?
Are you thriving in a job that helps your brother? are you not addicted? ...curious and communicative...

Topic: Actually I meant amorous
Sometimes it's asif I'm caught in the milk of my own desires, looking at your face.

I love God
I like very much the
Poetry of Rumi,
Conducting (directing, arranging, putting-the-inflection-to-the-orchestra's-Voicer) is so subtle. I like Leo.
I know he's not intellectually cool-
But he is poetry to me- the popular choice(!)

I feel like a woman
There is nobody who can fill in for me in my position.
Only me can be me. I.
Am a dawn-speckled bird at the center of the world

I like warm strong coffee with rice milk and half and half (3:1)
Served to me in bed!
While I write my morning pages and drink coffee in silence
My lover next to me, doing the same
(Though he could have whatever he wants in his coffee). I like

Bread baking itself
While us, satiated in our
Morning pages and coffee
Are whirling inside eachother's sauna. The bread cooks slow so I could hold him afterwards, silent, floating, hot, coffee scented I like
A jacuzzi to jump in before the bread gets out
It's a natural one, designed by the son of Frank Lloyd Wright- cut into
Did I say cut? no, I ment
Smoothed out from a natural one that was already there in our caverned ridged hale
Tucked into the Mother, open facing the sea, open saying,
Come- Come get me-
While we sit on the veranda. Lanai. Porch. Feet up on the banister.
What I Like
3SE 6/2005

I like New York my birth town
Maui my re-birth town I
Would like to go stinking rich to New Orleans where
Me and my beau (Lover!) would dress old-fashioned N’orleans rich, rent oneuh them old fashioned carriages drawn by horses, and
RIDE THROUGH TOWN
ALL AROUN
PERHAPS FOR DAYS
THROWING LEIS
FROM THE CARRIAGE
TO THE PEOPLE
SAYING THE EQIVILANT OF ALOHA ONLY IN FRENCH
WHICH WE ARE SPEAKING BEAUTIFULLY
Despite our non-French origins
Though my lover, who of course is a music-artist
Does play as comfortably in a Zydeco band as in a
Concertina. I would also like to

Eat cassari cheese and feta cheese and ripe fresh olives and
My lover and the wind in
A cave on a ledge of an uninhabited island near Greece
Which we will call by the name of what Jesus wrote in the sand.
It will face the velvety blue Mediterranean
We will see the moon & sun set & rise from there each day till we decide to sail on I like
Sailing. Above and below
All waters, Great and Bounding,
Small and Subtle, bayous and tributaries, snaky rivers and straight rivers,a
Love-pod. Smoothly guiding. Through life. Wearing silk and velvet
Sleeping on the Soft Fur
Of all of my dreams.

Merlin And Anastasia
Mood:  lyrical
Now Playing: First draft of first 2 Chapters... goal is to make the first 5 longer each time then level off-
Topic: On My Way Home
Merlin And Anastasia (1st draft)

Chapter I
The Siberian dirt road was bumpy in 1917, hardly anything like the roads that would exist decades later, so it wasn’t unusual that, on hitting one particularly large stone that one of the bodies should roll out under the flapping yellowed canvas tarp and land unseen on the frigid ice. It also wasn’t unusual that the soldiers tearing down the road and top speed wouldn’t notice her falling out- after all, they were a little freaked out, what with the whole royal family heaped in the back of their truck all dead and bleeding dressed in their dignified clothes that were now shredded in grotesque ways due to the repeated close-range blasts they’d received. “Nasty Business-this” they might say if they were British. But it was unusual when a High Magician originally from Britain and who was currently traveling backward in time and around the world- appeared just moments later, took the dying girl in his strong arms, and disappeared with her.

Chapter II
The Franciscan monks at _____________ were uncharacteristically worried, even their Head Brother, Andrew. “But Merlin” he said “If anyone finds out she’s here- we’ll have an international incident on our hands.” “Drew”, the stately Magi said calmly, while all the while running his hands through his salt-and-pepper hair in a more honestly nervous manner. (Even powerful men are affected by the sight of a young beautiful woman laying barely alive in slanting, dusty sunlight). “You’re a RELIGIOUS order. You’re protected by the power of the church.” “As you may be aware, since you are highly educated, the Roman Catholic church is not so powerful here anymore, and the Bolsheviks are very verbally anti-religion.” “ ‘Opium Of The Masses’ they’ll call it”- Merlin said, obviously distracted enough to forget that Andrew hadn’t heard Karl Marx’s famous quote since he’d not even said it yet. He sighed, and shook his head as if to wake himself from a dream.
“Drew- you’ve been like a son to me. You know I wouldn’t let anyone attack your monestary here. If we even get wind of anything, I’ll just scoop her up and leave again.” “But where would you go? No-I won’t hear of it, she’s not even conscious,” he said, dipping a swatch of brown gauzy cloth cut from an old robe into the thyme and peppermint tea in the old stone jar on the bedstand, and pressed it to her forehead. Drew laughed, a nervous laugh but not fully, obviously he was calming down now that he’d made a decision “anyways, where would you find such an abundance of herbs and unguents, not to mention bread that is so pure, wholesome, AND delicious?” “Not to mention ANY of that hazelnut and herbal liqueur that’s like YOURS! Even Fra. Angelico from the hills of Piedmont’s original recipe pales in comparison. Speaking of the bless’ed brew… got any? I could use a nip or two or four or maybe a decanter full right now. It’s been a long night.” “And I as well, sire. I don’t suspect she’ll be waking soon, lets go down to the kitchen and get some bread, and, yes, a full decanter, and we’ll save a portion for the princess and bring it up after- it won’t do us any good trying to eat in here-it’s too upsetting. I’ll send friar John in to watch for us- he’ll retrieve us if she starts to come to” “Will he know how to dress the wounds?” “Of course, he knows better than I, even. I’ve been so busy running the place, I dare say I haven’t much time for study.” “Well, then perhaps we should just fill our flasks and take them with us for a walk through the nose-gays- show me what you got, I’ll tell you what I know, son. Least till my speech starts to slurr.”
As they leave the room together, laughing, Ana dreams of the Devil running quickly down a frozen, rutted, rock strewn poor excuse for a road. She is outraged that such a road exists in her Father’s kingdom, and is about to become outraged that she is laying in the middle of it bleeding to death when she feels a warm light behind her and turns her head slightly to see what it is, and it is a beautiful man- very wise and sophisticated, even, well, (she blushes in the dream) HANDSOME- then she stammers “Are you an angel sent by God?” (then she blushes again, thinking of how she was just sexually attracted to an angel) when HE says “I ain’t no angel, honey, but I’m the best chance ya gots.” He’s wearing a wonderful immaculately clean cowboy hat and well-buffed and polished boots kinda like that man Buffalo Bill, and his smile is good, though his speech is strange to her. “What do you mean, sir?” “You can call me Merl, ma’am, an’ ahm fixin’ to save your fanny.” “My what?” “Look, I ain’t no angel, but tha shur is yur Christian Devil comin down the road- that one they’ll invent a few hundred years ago- so, begs yur pardon, but, we’ds better git outta here.”
Then she wakes up. She smells thyme and peppermint, smells familiar to her, smells from the deep woods of her Grandmother’s apocatheries, and passes out again.

THE CALDRON:






27 / 33 The Corners of the Mouth (Providing Nourishment)
Hungering
(18->27->17->28)
"YI : mouth, jaws, cheeks, chin; take in, ingest; feed, nourish, sustain, rear; furnish what is necessary. The ideogram: open jaws" ERANOS p327
Image :
"[With enlightenment comes retainment] : [Knowledge].
Below the mountain is thunder. Ingesting.
One considers one's words when talking,
just as one regulates one's eating and drinking."
In a context of enlightenment, a new beginning, we utilise discernment.

Commentary
In hexagram 27 we recognize that nourishment is a vital part of generation, without it we die. But it does not need to have meaning, it just needs to be filling; be warned. Contextually, a degree of devotion and openness develops into a difficult beginning and one hungers for information.
The Traditional Single Changing Line Comments:
Line 1
"One surpresses one's spirit to see only what is necessary. Unfortunate."
Line 2
"Rejecting the standards, one tries to go straight to the top for nourishment. One is punished. Unfortunate."
Line 3
"Rejecting nourishment leads to testing times and danger. Stay off this path for it is directionless."
Line 4
"One is filled with a craving for nourishment. It is advantageous for one to intensely and carefully inspects all that there is for the best pieces. No harm in this."
Line 5
"One chooses to reject the regular ways and instead live by way of divination. Advantageous, although one is blocked from the flow of things."
Line 6
"One has come across the root of all knowledge. Dangerous but favourable. Advantageous to instigate something."
Extended Commentary
The raw context from which the situation derives is described by hexagram 02 devoting/receiving. It passed through hexagram 03 Difficult Beginnings before reaching here.
Transformative methods
By introducing this hexagram as context, you can change a state described by any other hexagram into a state described by hexagram 24. To make a state associated with another hexagram transform into this state, introduce hexagram 24 as context.
It is important to remember that, when using transformative methods, the more lines requiring change, the more energy required when attempting to introduce a different context. It may therefore be of benefit to work on existing changing lines and achieve your goal in steps rather than attempt, for example, a six-line change all at once.
