… Apple (Eng.)/ Pomme (Fr.) /
Manzana (Sp.)
These words, which all mean the same thing, should be explained one at a
time, as they come from different sources. In regard to apple, all European
languages other than the Romance languages, ie., the great majority of
Indo-European languages, including the Celtic tongues, use a word with a root
ap, ab, af or av for apples and apple trees: aballo (Celtic), apple(Eng.), Apfel
(Germ.), aeppel (Old Eng.), abhal (Irish Gaelic), epli (Icelandic), afal
(Welsh), jabloko (Russian), and jablko (Polish). In regard to pomme, this French
term comes from the Latin pomum, which originally referred to all fruit. Before
Christianity was adopted as the official religion of the Roman Empire some time
in the 4th. Century, the Latin word malum (melon in Greek) meant “apple.” After
the adoption of Christianity, however, and due to the important symbolism of the
apple in the bible (ie, the Garden of Eden), the general term pomum, “fruit,”
was used to describe the apple as “the fruit of fruits.” In regard to manzana,
this Spanish term comes from the Iberian pronunciation of matiana, a Gallo-Roman
translation of the Latin word matianum, which was a scented, golden apple first
raised by and named after Matius, a friend of Caesar’s who was also a cookbook
author ["Apple" Footnote: The French village of Avallon (in the Yonne area),
where there are a lot of apple trees, received its name from the legend of the
sacred island of Avalon or Abalon, meaning "Apple Orchard"--incidentally, the
"-on" suffix is an "augmentative" and explains the origin of the name of the
Pacific shellfish "Abalone"--that is, "big apple."]. source: http://www.westegg.com/etymology/ ..how to table up in latin?

Avalon was where King Arthur’s sword was created.
.. and the old name for the British islands was Albion.

“Badness you can get easily, in quantity; the road is smooth, and it lies close by, But in front of excellence the immortal gods have put sweat, and long and steep is the way to it.”

¡μολὼν λαβέ! - Λεωνίδας (540BC – 480BC)
“Many bulls surround me;
strong bulls of Bashan encircle me.
Roaring lions that tear their prey
open their mouths wide against me.
I am poured out like water,
and all my bones are out of joint.
My heart has turned to wax;
it has melted within me.
My mouth is dried up like a potsherd,
and my tongue sticks to the roof of my mouth;
you lay me in the dust of death.
Dogs surround me,
a pack of villains encircles me;
they pierce my hands and my feet.
All my bones are on display;
people stare and gloat over me.
They divide my clothes among them
and cast lots for my garment.”
– Psalm 22:12-18 (David, around 1,000BC)
“An idea that is not dangerous is unworthy of being called an idea at all.”
– Oscar Wilde (1854-1900)

Daily Comment Wierdness Report
I use library PCs, which have Public Web Browser v2 (looks like IE) and Chromium Moly (looks like Chrome). They both work fine on DISQUS sites like HFW, but recently neither will pull up the comments at DISQUS’ own blog here. Will you guys try it and see if you can see their comments and say which browser you are using? After you get to their site, click a NNN Comments and NNN Reactions link on one of the blogs and see if it just sits there or the comments appear. I get nothing.
Thanks.

Happy Mothers Day. Jjust a couple of great songs in tribute to Donald “Duck” Dunn. I lov this one. Simple rhythms, chord progression(8 bar blues-where would rock be without?!)) and lead but just a rockin song. Dunn wasn’t the original bassist but since he is linked forever with Steve Cropper and therefore this song; I thought it ok, Plus, as I said, the song rocks: http://www.bing.com/videos/search?q=green+onionsstudiop+version+video&view=detail&mid=E3154E5F96FD42D33B75E3154E5F96FD42D33B75&first=0 This is The Blues Brothers version of a Sam & Dave song. Dunn was on the original at Staxx Records(Booker T & The MGs were the house band as The Funk Brothers were to Motown) but I couldn’t find a studio version. Since Dunn was in The Blues Brothers movie(he was in the band that was playing at the hotel when Jake and Elwood were “gettin the band back together”-along with Steve Cropper) and played on the track, I felt this was ok. In fact, you can here Jake(John Belushi) pay homage at the end to “Steve Cropper and Duck Dunn”: . http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YnaSRhMB_qo&feature=related Hope this puts a smile on your day!!

…born from a mother! ..dare out to M. Orlova! http://vimeo.com/3315266
The words of King Lemuel, the strong advice his mother gave him:
“Oh, son of mine, what can you be thinking of!
Child whom I bore! The son I dedicated to God!
Don’t dissipate your virility on fortune-hunting women,
promiscuous women who shipwreck leaders.
Leaders can’t afford to make fools of themselves,
gulping wine and swilling beer,
Lest, hung over, they don’t know right from wrong,
and the people who depend on them are hurt.
Use wine and beer only as sedatives,
to kill the pain and dull the ache
Of the terminally ill,
for whom life is a living death..”
- Proverbs 31:2-3
“I am sick of your world that lets the outside disguise the inside.”
- Κίρκη
“Clay, I dress myself in vain
as poppy, in vain see my arms
empty, vainly your heels I bite,
giving them savage blows and storms,
angry words like a raging heart.”
- Miguel Hernández Gilabert (1910-1942)

That pix reminds me of the time I was visiting London and was looking into one of those little peak-roofed shelters that housed a Horseguard on his horse. He was sound asleep! A little old British lady who was walking by poo-pooed me for taking his picture, but how could I pass that up?
Out of my right eye, I caught the sergeant of the guard marching down the sidewalk towards us, so I whispered, “Hey, buddy, here comes your boss.” He woke up and stared straight ahead like he had been awake all the time, so he didn’t get caught. ..

fight insomnia, birth difficulties, and other minor ailments.
