On St. Patrick's Day, we're all Irish... (Video: Who-is)

-Posted by D.C. Worth, for Barbay (France/US)

Driven by the Divine message of God, St Patrick was busy banishing the cult 'Pagan-God' of Fertility, "Cununo"... Represented in serpentine-form on many of the ancient stones of Ireland...

And yet today, St Patrick's work continues...
Millions upon millions around the globe, celebrate his memory...

-Here's the (perhaps) less known story of Sr. Patrick...

Away... Preparing studio for sculptures and portraiture... (Quick post)

-Posted by D.C. Worth, for Barbay (France/US)


Busy working on completing a ZEN-style Art Gallery to house large sculptures, and my paintings... And in contrast with drabness of metal contained in warehouse walls.... (cont. below)


... The office portion of the building, is being opened-up to create glass partition-effect... Similar to a contemporary view of openness; referenced in this image (below)...

Though without harsh trim... And with light teal & gray, to soften & harmonize with the enormous height of ceilings... (window example)

Home today, and the Gallery is getting Internet tomorrow.... :D
Maybe I will post more soon.... It will be a painting life...

New Pluto Moon Foreshadows More Surprises for NASA
[Probe En Route] [Read]
by Mike Wall, SPACE.com Senior Writer

A long journey

The New Horizons spacecraft launched in January 2006 on a mission to study the faraway Pluto system, which has never been visited by a probe. That system is now known to harbor at least four moons: Charon, Nix, Hydra and P4.

From Video: "Be careful whose advice you buy, but be patient with those who supply it... Advice is a form of nostalgia...

Dispensing it is a way of fishing the past from the disposal, wiping it off, painting over the ugly parts and recycling it for more than it's worth." :D Haha

Video: Conan O’Brien's Dartmouth Commencement Address

-Posted by D.C. Worth, for Barbay (France/US)

"It is our failure to become our "perceived ideal" that ultimately defines us; and makes us unique…. It’s not easy… But if you accept your misfortune, and handle it right… Your perceived failure can become a catalyst for profound re-invention."

Video Caption: Amazing speech.... Conan O'Brien, who The Washington Post has called "the most intelligent of the late-night comics," delivered the main address at Dartmouth College's 2011 Commencement exercises on Sunday morning, June 12...

Happy Flag Day, Americans... (Video)

-Posted by D.C. Worth, for Barbay (France/US)


Home of the Brave, Land of the Free....
The two do not exist without one another...



We make a dangerous enemy, that's why traitors and infiltrators have always tried to get us to fight ourselves.... But those who have stayed as Americans, have learned that their own Freedom stems from not trying to sacrifice or edit the opinions of others..... And in that, they found self confidence...

That is what being an American, is all about...

I will see this day enjoyed by the smiles of our future...
May God Bless our Military... As we remember their sacrifice, every day.
