The hand and the eye are central motifs, suggesting presence, protest, objection and protection. The installation is an assemblage of various intuitive media and material explorations in which images have been overlaid and overprinted on top of each other and found objects have been transformed from their original meaning and use. It is the scarring over of a healing wound that does not heal, a hand that writes a prayer over and over, the mark of time across a surface, the stories and histories (and rights) written and overwritten, and the crone looking back at herself as a maiden, wiser, yet wizened. The feminine archetype of the crone or grotesque, for me, ultimately is a generative force that provides protection and guardianship, such as the Sheela-na-gig, or the Egyptian god Bes, respectively. In this case, the idea of that palimpsest functions as a metaphor for the feminine archetype as a continual site of renewal (as in a feedback loop). A nod to the liminal, palimpsest can mean “altered but still bearing traces of its earlier form” (Wikipedia). Show Dates: September 2nd - October 28th, 2023īorn of grief, hope, transition, transformation and the renewal of life, this multi-media installation explores my own changing experience and the feminine archetype as palimpsest. Opening Celebration: September 2nd, 3:00 - 9:00pm We cannot wait to celebrate with you and show our gratitude for all your support over the last ten years. Our Martin brethren over at Martin’s BBQ are setting us up with the most delicious BBQ and fixins in the world, Bearded Iris Brewing is hooking up the Homestyle, We’re whipping up some extra special custom merch, and I’m sure I’m forgetting something, but you know we’ll have plenty of champagne!

Our team is driven, our brands are strong, and we are positioned for long-term growth,” Wallstrom concluded. “We have a healthy cash position, a debt-free balance sheet, and an ability to generate free cash flow that will allow us to continue to invest in both our lifestyle brands and seek out acquisitions of other comfortable, affordable, purpose-driven brands over time. We remain focused on our vision to be a purpose-driven, multi-lifestyle brand, high-growth company. Wallstrom continued, “We are confident that both our Vera Bradley and Pura Vida brands have meaningful long-term growth opportunities, well beyond their core product categories. Wallstrom added, “Even with the current supply chain challenges and delayed renewal of GSP, on a year-to-date basis, before certain items, non-GAAP EPS is ahead of last year and ahead of where we were in Fiscal 2020, pre-pandemic.” This negatively impacted diluted EPS by approximately $0.03 for the third quarter and by $0.06 for the nine months.” “In the past, Congress has retroactively reinstated the duty-free status of such tariffs to the beginning of the year however, we are not certain when or if this will happen. “In addition, more specific to Vera Bradley, the lower margin rate reflects higher tariffs from previously duty-free countries from which we source products whose generalized system of preferences, or GSP, duty-free status expired at the beginning of the calendar year,” continued Wallstrom. Those increases began in the fourth quarter of this year and will continue over the next few quarters.” We have begun to take strategic retail price increases across both of our brands to mitigate some of these inflationary and supply chain pressures. We estimate these incremental freight expenses negatively impacted diluted EPS by approximately $0.05 for the third quarter and $0.10 for the nine months. “Like much of the industry, we continued to experience supply chain challenges and significantly increased freight expenses that put meaningful pressure on gross margin in the quarter. We expect that driving growth through both our ecommerce and physical distribution channels will be key to returning to our 15% to 20% growth target for Pura Vida. On the other hand, our first store in San Diego continued to run ahead of expectations, and we are focused on opening three to five additional stores next year. Pura Vida’s e-commerce revenues were still suppressed by the Apple iOS 14.5 update put in place earlier this year that lessened the effectiveness of Facebook and Instagram advertising, Pura Vida’s primary marketing vehicles to drive sales. “Pura Vida sales returned to double digit growth in the quarter, up 11.7% over last year. Third quarter Vera Bradley brand comparable sales rose nearly 8% over last year and 5.6% over Fiscal 2020. “Vera Bradley brand revenues have continued to gain momentum quarter-over-quarter as customers have responded to product innovation and collaborations, supported by data-driven and targeted marketing. Rob Wallstrom, Chief Executive Officer of Vera Bradley, Inc., noted, “We posted a consolidated year-over-year third quarter revenue increase of 7.9% and a 5.7% increase over the pre-pandemic levels of the third quarter of Fiscal 2020. “Vera Bradley” on a stand-alone basis refers only to the Vera Bradley brand. or “the Company” refers to the entire enterprise and includes both the Vera Bradley and Pura Vida brands.

Scrubbing through the drawings on the timeline (or jumping between sections as you mentioned) showed no lag. the Proxy rendering took about 20 seconds, but then the playback was perfectly smooth.

It is not universally available, however, so the older kits still have a role. More recently, hydroxocobalamin has become available under the brand name Cyanokit, and provides a safer, faster, simpler treatment. Supportive treatment including oxygen, IV fluids, and airway protection in severe cases should also be a priority. Sodium thiosulfate is slower acting, however, as it cannot rapidly enter the mitochondria, and the sulfur donor group has to be shuttled to the mitochondrial rhodanese enzymes via the albumin-sulfane complex. In patients who have had smoke inhalation, sodium thiosulfate should be used alone, without the nitrites, because there may be concomitant carboxyhemoglobinemia. The second component of the kit is sodium thiosulfate, which acts as a sulfur donor for the enzyme rhodanese, the body’s natural mechanism for detoxifying cyanide, converting it to thiocyanate. One of the dangers of the nitrite-containing antidote is that inducing a methemoglobinemia in a critically ill patient could hasten their decline by further reducing oxygen delivery. The Fe3+ of metHb binds to cyanide ions more strongly than cytochrome oxidase does, so it draws the cyanide out of the cells to allow resumption of oxidative phosphorylation. These induce methemoglobinemia, which is hemoglobin with iron in the Fe3+ oxidation state instead of instead of Fe2+. In short, the nitrites used in antidote kits are either inhaled amyl nitrite, used typically in the pre-hospital setting or when IV access is not available, or IV sodium nitrite. The true mechanism of action is complicated. The older cyanide antidote kits consisted of nitrites and sodium thiosulfate. Among smokers who may have an innately poor ability to detoxify cyanide, a chronic, progressive visual loss can occur, termed tobacco amblyopia. Cyanide is also present in trace amounts in fruit seeds, but rarely poses a health risk. Ingestion of improperly prepared cassava, is one cause, and can lead to a demyelinating disorder called tropical ataxic neuropathy. In cases of smoke inhalation the clinical picture may be complicated by a concurrent carbon monoxide poisoning as well as any cutaneous burns or trauma. Symptoms can occur minutes to hours after ingestion or transdermal exposure, but are almost immediate after parenteral exposure. Initially they may have tachycardia, hypertension and tachypnea, followed by hemodynamic collapse, with bradycardia, hypotension and bradypnea. They may also develop renal failure, hepatic necrosis, pulmonary edema and rhabdomyolysis. Patients’ skin may appear red due to the venous hyperoxia. The symptoms of cyanide toxicity include nausea, vomiting, headaches, confusion and dyspnea ultimately leading to seizures, coma and death. This will manifest as red-appearing skin and retinal veins with cherry red venous blood, as well as a narrowed arterial-venous oxygen gradient. Since the cells experience a histotoxic hypoxia and cannot utilize oxygen, it remains in the bloodstream causing venous hyperoxia. This causes an anion-gap, lactic acidosis. Cyanide ions bind to ferric iron (Fe3+) present in mitochondrial cytochrome oxidases, arresting oxidative phosphorylation and forcing the cells into anaerobic metabolism. In water, cyanide exists primarily as HCN (hydrogen cyanide), which can rapidly cross cell membranes, but is in equilibrium with cyanide ions (CN–). It can also occur iatrogenically from prolonged nitroprusside infusion. While it is fortunately a rare cause for presentation to emergency departments, cyanide is one of the most rapidly fatal toxins known, so diagnosis and treatment must be expeditious.Ĭyanide toxicity can occur from a range of different exposures, including smoke inhalation from burning plastics in house fires, intentional ingestions in suicide attempts and industrial exposures among individuals working in the jewelry, photography, metallurgy or textile industries. Now there is a newer, safer agent that converts the mitochondrial toxin, cyanide, into the benign chemical cyanocobalamin, or vitamin B12. Cyanide toxicity can be quickly fatal, but there is a simple, safe treatment that can reverse its toxic effects.įor many years, cyanide toxicity was treated with multi-component cyanide antidote kits.

He therefore who loves his neighbour, has ascended one degree, though as yet he hate his enemy which is expressed in that, and shalt hate his enemy which is not to be understood as a command to the justified, but a concession to the weak." And as the things that have gone before pertain to the completion of the righteousness of the Law, in like manner this last precept is to be referred to the completion of the law of love, which, according to the Apostle, is the fulfilling of the Law." Īugustine: "That by the command, Thou shalt love thy neighbour, all mankind were intended, the Lord showed in the parable of the man who was left half dead, which teaches us that our neighbour is every one who may happen at any time to stand in need of our offices of mercy and this who does not see must be denied to none, when the Lord says, Do good to them that hate you." Īugustine: "That there were degrees in the righteousness of the Pharisees which was under the old Law is seen herein, that many hated even those by whom they were loved. Glossa Ordinaria: "The Lord has taught above that we must not resist one who offers any injury, but must be ready even to suffer more He now further requires us to show to them that do us wrong both love and its effects. Martin Luther King said of this passage: "It's so basic to me because it is a part of my basic philosophical and theological orientation-the whole idea of love, the whole philosophy of love." Commentary from the Church Fathers Instead, Sharp followed James Farmer in emphasizing that through nonviolent tactics, those in power can be forced by public pressure to concede to popular demands. Gene Sharp believed that it is not necessary for activists to express love for their opponents or to convert these opponents to their perspective in order for activists to achieve their desired policy changes. The German philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche argued in his treatise On the Genealogy of Morality (1887) that love of one's enemies is weakness and dishonesty (see Master–slave morality). Early church thinkers also saw this as one of Jesus' most important teachings. The author of Matthew places this verse in the final antithesis, a summary of all that been stated in the Sermon. This term occurs seven more times in Matthew, and 140 times in the NT. Rather the author of Matthew uses agapan, which Barclay translates as continued benevolence. The Greek words for love for a family member, stergein sexual love, eros and deep affection, philia are not used in this verse. Barclay notes that Greek had four different words that are normally translated as love. The meaning of the word love is more restricted in Greek than in English. The entire Jewish community at both the time of Jesus and the latter 1st century had been subject to persecution by the Romans (see History of the Jews in the Roman Empire, Persecution of Christians in the New Testament, and Anti-Christian policies in the Roman Empire). In this verse, persecutors are specifically mentioned at the time of its writing (approximately the last quarter of the 1st century), the Christian community had recently faced considerable persecution under Nero. "Enemies" is a broad term for all manner of foes and adversaries. WikiProject Rome may be able to help recruit an expert. The present text shows little awareness of the dynamics of Roman-Jewish and Roman-Christian relations. The specific problem is: The intent of this paragraph is to put the passage in historical context, and it needs the attention of authors familiar with this historical context. This section needs attention from an expert in Rome. The World English Bible translates the passage as:īut I tell you, love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who mistreat you and persecute you, In the King James Version of the Bible the text reads:īut I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you In the chapter, Jesus refutes the teaching of some that one should "hate enemies".Ĭontent The Greek text of Matthew 5:42-45 with a decorated headpiece in Folio 51 recto of Lectionary 240 (12th century) This is the second verse of the final antithesis, that on the commandment to " Love thy neighbour as thyself". Matthew 5:44, the forty-fourth verse in the fifth chapter of the Gospel of Matthew in the New Testament, also found in Luke 6:27–36, is part of the Sermon on the Mount.
