Senate passed bach act an anti cancel be to fine hacker and scalpers that buy tickets in bull be anding turn more in september house members filed similar legislation but bills are not Identical Senate version is now moving to house for a vote. This morning theres new support for women in the military. Earlier this Year Congress proposed a bill that would require women to register for the draft when they turn 18. Just like men. And fors first time president obama is endorsing the idea. He is the first president to endorse universal draft registration since jimmy carter. After the proposed, the white house was mum on the bill but now thats changed. As part of original defense policy bill created earlier this year legislation called for adding women to the draft. But that has been taken out. This new version being voted on today calls for a commission to study whether the military should have the draft at all. White house says the president supports an all volunteer force and that president obama believes adding women to the draft would show commitment to gender equality service. No one has been drafted into the military since in a 1973. Earlier this year women were allowed to participate in combat roles for first time. But that could be changing too. Theres a chance the Trump Administration will review and potentially repeal allowing women to serve in Ground Combat units. Emotional sight every Holiday SeasonArlington National cemetery.

Yeah. I think in the morning i do. Yeah. Yeah. I do. Hey, we received a very interesting picture from a viewer yesterday after seeing charley at ergle farm they cannot afford tree they do something very cool instead. We will show thank you to you first walter getting creative Dunedin Fine Arts Center. Good morning everybody. Walter allen in for Charley Belcher this morning. Were at the dunedin fine arts . With lorraine. Lorraine, you are instructor of, this had a whole big giant student abstract acrylic expressionism. I also teach intro to pastels reason were talk to you tomorrow they have big open house which starts at 10 oclock. Thats where you can buy all pottery by way. Here, is one the demos that will be going on. This where people can come and see everything that the Dunedin Fine Arts Center has to offer. And you will be given a demo about this. So what are you agoing to be telling folks tomorrow . Basically the way i teach my classes, and i have some of my students here, and its all about painting abstractly. And theres two different kinds of abstract. There is figure active which basically it looks like something. And then there is this, which is nonobjective. Which is basically composition color, shapes and value. And each week in our class, we talk about a different way to start a painting. How do you start . You have blank canvas what do you do. So tomorrow in the demo aring blank canvas how do you get started. Big tip the cap to photo journalist tiptoeing around land mines trying to not knock over this hard work in here. How do you get started . I mean do you have to have a picture right there . You dont. You dont have a picture. But this particular picture here is a photo shopped version of a still life that we worked from a week ago. And this shows you that you can work from a painting within a pa much. It was probably a corn stalk in the still life. And photo shopped it just makes an interesting abstract. So i work from that as the class did. And just look for shapes and values and invent the colors that you happen to like that work in your composition. Beautiful thing about this is, you use all sorts of things. One artist over here she was using credit cards to make sure you have straight lines. You were using your fingers you what we do each week ill demonstrate again tomorrow is you can use pallet knife a brush, your fingers, its really trying to loosen up your technique. If anybody comes in and says i think too tight. Thats the class they want to take. And they can see a little bit of that demo tomorrow. And i think also you dont have to be married to the picture if you start making Something Like you were mentioning off camera earlier something that was supposed to be i dont know, starting to look leak tree or turn it sideways it looks like Something Else you can make absolutely. Absolutely. You start it one way. And its just the basic elements of composition and shape and value. And all of sudden, something may appear or by turning it, it looks like Something Else. And you work on it that way for a while. And then the class is very instructive as well. Everybody will look and say i really like it better that way. Did you think about maybe lighter here or darker here. So its really a collaborative effort. And we do positive critiques which means we talk about whats versus saying something negative. And theres always something working in Painting Always something gelling that will turn into a great painting. I wish we had positive critiques. I can help out with that. Okay. Thank you well bring you on do positive critiques thank you so much. So for the demos that will start same time pottery 10 oclock but only go until 2 thats right. Here Dunedin Fine Arts Center we will go back ove things they are going to have this weekend on top of the pottery that includes jewelry as well also glass blowing and all of this other interesting stuff.

He spoke with him earlier this morning i had, i just i figured that the bond that they would have would be something that would just be unexplainable. But what he told me was a complete opposite. Listen in. If youre exposed to battles you dont want to have friends you have because when they die, if they are friends it is tough to handle it where if they are just another person in the group you can handle that. Wow. Remarkable. Two years ago by the way, there were 12 survivors that actually went to pearl harbor. Again only a few are expected this year. 94 years old. Still very active.

Good day garden with our friend david widwam inspect good to see you hope your holidays are going well. They are going greet. About a month or so ago. We were out in good day garden we had to kind of redo it. Because of some seeds got mixed in wit just got pulled up. We decided to put pollution in and now weve made lot of progress. We put pollution in and then we put carrot seeds in we do do some of this by seeds. And really we have havent number garden for about four weeks. Other than some mild weddings. So now its time to do housekeeping. Looks good. Yeah. All right. Where do we start . Well start over here. This is broccoli. Its doing okay. It really doesnt look like it needs much other than the here to the kale. The kale when we put the plugs they were still pretty tight. If you look down here you can actually see that theres one and a one plant growing out of this hole. See how theres two plants. Nice thing about this we call a gleaning youre going to get a little bit of harvest outdoing this. First thing we will do come through and thin out plants. Heres another bunch of kale right here. That as you can see is just too tightly packed. Because im gleaning im going to actually going to take bigger one and have a little bit of more of harvest. s. Thats ready to eat in smooth sympathy or stir 42 i. We can thin the rest of these out. I want wanted to move over here to lettuce. Romaine lettuce also when we planned it you can see their more than one plant. Eat. So we can just come in here, again when im gleaning i like to take bigger plants. That way im getting more for the table. So as you can see we got two little lettuce plants here romaine. We want to go down the radio and do that with every single one of lettuce. Okay. The cilantro we will leaf it when we glean later on we get a little bit more of a harvest. Move over here to the carrots. So with the carrots, as you can see when we put seeds in, they are still a little bit tightly pack. Make with carrots. Is they dont come back and then them out. Carrots are pretty easy aget them to germ nate. Key is making sure you come back in and thin them out. You want carrots to be about 1 to two inches apart each. I like to just, yeah they are too close. But we just wanted to make assure you this want them too far apart either or youre wasting space we will pull all of these carrots up and leave them so they are one to two inches apart. We dont is lot of time left. After we thin everything out were going to come back and do our feeding. Like i said everything has in for about four weeks. This will give everybody a little push and make sure they have minerals they need micro nutrients which like vitamins and compost plus. Which is the food what they use to actually build with. Time to give them some of that. Thats right. Good, david. Looks good. Thank you, man. Moving along. Good to see you. Good to see you too.
