Talking Heads Burning Down the House Lyrics

burning down the house lyrics

I don’t expect any civility from a Langley lapdog such as yourself, nor do I desire it. I could ask you the same … “are you really this lonely? Look how you started this conversation with me … a big hero hidin’ behind a terminal hurling ad hominem attacks. I imagine the only “front lines” you’ve ever seen was the line to get in to see “Glow”, the homo musical.

The Meaning Behind The Song: Burning Down The House by Talking Heads

I can’t be a “shabbos” when I have plainly stated I am against sending any U.S. tax dollars to Israel or any nation while our borders are intentionally left wide open and the Biden regime continues to facilitate an invasion by illegal aliens. You really don’t even have any firm grasp of reality or understanding of the language you are using. Nothing I have stated in this article defends Israel but simply notes that standing by our treaties is “well and fine” — even with that, we shouldn’t be funding the Biden regime or Ukraine and Israel until our borders are sealed and secured and the invasion of illegal aliens stopped. His attacks on fossil fuels are resulting in steep energy costs, while he now pursues oil from America’s enemies, placing us in a precarious national security situation. The middle east, and Taiwan are not nations of vital interest to the NATO countries.

There are always exceptions but when you have a totalitarian government as we currently suffer with, along with a two tiered justice system coupled with a deeply fragmented country with all the power centers controlled by the leftists with their very own Stasi enforcers you have little chance of going against or rising up in revolt. The FBI exists as muscle for the democrats, most if not all three letter agencies are in thrall to the democrats and the Justice department exists primarily to persecute any and all not with the party program. TPTB have worked long and hard to get the country to this point and they aren’t stupid, just evil. Obama was the heir apparent but the ‘progressive’ state of things has been in progress since before FDR. But no matter how one views the EU, the Ukrainian people are obviously in desperate need of assistance, and perhaps an effective joint economic aid plan will soon be managed by the U.S., the EU and the International Monetary Fund, with mutually beneficial terms included.

The band’s fusion of different genres appealed to a wide range of listeners, and it helped them become one of the most popular and influential bands of the 1980s. Welsh singer Tom Jones recorded a version of "Burning Down the House" with Swedish pop band the Cardigans for his 1999 collaborations album, Reload. In common with the other tracks on the album, the recording was made with the collaborators' choice of producer and studio, in this case Tore Johansson and Tambourine Studios in Malmö, Sweden. "Burning Down the House" became Talking Heads' highest-charting hit single in North America, becoming their only top ten single on the US Billboard Hot 100, peaking at No. 9, as well as reaching the top ten in Canada.[5] Despite this success, the song was not a hit outside of North America. In Australia it peaked at a modest No. 94, while in the UK, where Talking Heads would release 14 charting singles, it failed to chart. The house used in the video is located on Myrtle Street in Union, New Jersey.

It’s actually a bit more complicated, but the fact remains that Japan had already pretty well made up its mind to attack us. And we were still in negotiations with them when they did. The difference today is this model of “globalism” is essentially a construct of the United Nations and its “conventions”, agreements, agendas and strictures that favors the Marxists, Maoists and tyrants of the world, in a unified push towards a world government controlled by collectivists, such as seen in the ranks of the Davos group and the World Economic Forum. Yes, WWI was totally avoidable, but Wilson was the definition of a globalist, having helped form the League of Nations.

And, in case You didn’t notice, one of my primary concerns in this article makes it plain that I am angered to see Congress fund Ukraine and Israel before doing anything at all about our own borders. It was European governments who signed mutual protection treaties without really knowing what could ensue, and they went to war following the protectors of a “Royal” family. George W. Bush attempted to gain NATO membership for both Georgia and Ukraine in 2008, but Europe refused their membership out of fear of Russia’s reaction, and four months later Putin entered Ossetia, claiming then, as now, that he was protecting ethnic Russians.

President Yanukovych’s arbitrary decision to nullify an economic agreement with the European Union (EU), with few strings attached, and accept a $15 billion aid package from Russian President Vladimir Putin was viewed with horror and revulsion. The specter of life under Russian influence and control surfaced, and this is a life that the majority of Ukrainians will never willingly accept again – something they will fight to the death before being forced once more down the road to serfdom. As far as agreements go, don’t speak to me of agreements, when Putin’s first move was to violate the 1994 Budapest Memorandum in which Russia agreed to help France and the U.S. ensure Ukraine’s border security and in exchange Ukraine would relinquish its nuclear weapons. Putin invaded and occupied Crimea in 2014, out of anger at having his economic overtures rebuffed and his puppet ousted.

The Meaning Behind The Song: “Burning Down The House” by Talking Heads

It’s well and fine to wish to help our Israeli allies, with whom we do have standing treaties that oblige us to send them a certain amount of military support each year, under a $38 billion memorandum that was signed in 2016. And yet, these goddamned rat bastards in Congress couldn’t see fit to set aside money for actually securing our own borders or demand that our borders be sealed, secured and the alien invasion halted, before one damned red-cent is spent anywhere else. Whatever occurs in the coming days and years ahead, it won’t serve the conservative principles the nation was founded upon, until and unless our election system is made properly secure in all 50 states. At one time, I believed in bottom up change, meaning no “leadership” was required, especially in a good cause.

This appears to be the first time Swift has written about Kardashian

Calls to ‘revolution’ and to ‘do something’ are a waste of time and a sop. There is no leader to follow, there is no guiding philosophy or prinicple that all disenfranchised Americans can get behind, not all (most) people understand what is being done to them and the country at large and the congitive dissonance is profound. The psyops runs deep, the media is the propaganda arm and the country itself is a giant carcass being stripped clean of the last remnants of wealth, resources and prosperity. Biden took 11 million dollars from AIPAC, who do you think he works for? Israel through AIPAC and other PACS pump hundreds of millions of dollars into every US election to buy elected officials. They own 98% of them.The video in this article is basically BS.

There is no head, there is no plan, there are no cohesive groups and if any group stands out it is destroyed. Look no further than the razor wire round the Capitol, the persecution of the Jan 6 folk and the creation of a class of untouchable minority criminals. The shithole cities denizens run away to red states, turning those into shitholes and inflation is such that the challenges of keeping a roof over one’s head generally precludes actions of the revolutionary kind. I was thinking that Mygirl might want me to name a few more… Maybe it didn’t see my post. (Is “it” OK by you? I don’t really now what gender to use in addressing you… Masculine, Feminine or Neutral? So I went with Neutral).

Let us move forward unwilling to permit the slow undoing of those human rights to which this nation has always been committed and more determined than ever to not tempt our adversaries with weakness, as we prevent one tyranny, once removed, from being replaced by a far more iron tyranny. Whether anyone wants to admit it, China is ramping up and preparing to supplant the U.S. as the world’s foremost global power, both monetarily and militarily. They know that they too have to eventually unwind themselves from this symbiotic economic situation that currently exists between our two nations. Whether they actually finally declare war or strike us without warning is a toss up and anyone’s guess, but they aren’t afraid of us and they aren’t being deterred by us, not much and not anywhere in the globe, especially in Africa. It was when the globalists of that day invented our valuable ‘allies’ that got us in WW1. I’m sure you remember ‘To Make the World Safe for Democracy’.

Currently, even if some older ethnic Russian pensioners, the old communist apparatchiks, want to return Crimea to the Russian state, the majority of the Russian-speaking easterners __ Russo-sympathetic __ are not so indoctrinated by Russian propaganda that they would accept slavery in Putin’s totalitarian state over membership in NATO or the EU. At different times during recent history, Crimea has voted to be independent of the Soviet Union (December 1991) and Ukraine (May 1992-rescinded then reconsidered 1994), so Crimea will do what it will. But, all the signatories of the 1975 (non-intervention) Helsinki Final Act and the Budapest Memorandum, which includes the U.S. and the Soviet Union (Russia affirmed 1994) assured Ukraine’s security and territorial integrity.

If you are said paid security, you can’t spend your ill gotten gains when you’re dead, and I’d be any family you have would rather you come home instead of your final pay check. No, just not stupid enough to incriminate myself on a public forum. I really can’t tell at this point whether you are just an unhinged boomer whose mind has been rotted from too many Star Wars and John Wayne films, or a fedboi. So kudos “Justin” (or whatever your name is), you’ve totally nailed the insecure, tryhard, petite phallus energy your generation is known for. Solzhenitsyn’s words should serve as a warning in the face of this growing trend in America towards an expansion of fascism and tyranny in the country at the behest of the Biden régime and those amerikkans who currently support him and the most anti-American policies and agendas ever witnessed across the span of American history. Perhaps some patriots will start sending some eye-opening messages to these traitors via something with a little force and fear-provoking power behind it.

We should not be anywhere near these conflicts. Ukraine, Israel, and Taiwan are not our fight. We must get out own house in order, especially in the economic sphere and the area of individual freedom which western governments are now so grievously abusing. There are always ‘pockets’ of normalcy, life went on in prewar Germany and Soviet Russia, and many weren’t deeply affected by the Great Depression.

We could take a page out of the Weather Underground’s book and make things real interesting for them, in order to finally get them to take notice and address our numerous grievances properly. These are the most dangerous times for freedom and individual liberty I’ve ever witnessed in my lifetime. And it appears they’re only going to get worse over the next decade.

On that day the Revolution begins…every cause needs a martyr. Nice rant Justin ,and all painfully true .Unfortunately just speaking truth doesn’t negate the dire straits we are in . I like ” Crazy train ” as a theme song muself ,,Grandpa Moose ( my paternal grandfather) was a locomotive engineer so maybe I’m just predisposed to my preference on the matter .

It reflects the cultural and political context of its time while also tapping into universal and timeless themes. In doing so, it has become a beloved piece of music that continues to resonate with listeners around the world. The track was released as the lead single from Reload on September 13, 1999, and became a hit across Europe and Australia, reaching No. 1 in Iceland, No. 2 in Sweden, and the top ten in Australia, Denmark, Finland, Hungary, Norway and the United Kingdom. The single was backed with Jones' live recordings of the EMF song "Unbelievable" and the Beatles' "Come Together", as well as remixes of "Burning Down the House" by Delakota, Pepe Deluxé and DJ Scissorkicks. A year later, an extended live version of the song is a highlight of the band's landmark concert film Stop Making Sense.

Either way history will be looking for these traitors when the collapse occurs. History remembers and so do people that have nothing to eat. Directing blame to everyone but the real culprits, no mention of AIPAC or Zionism. Another government media piece disguised as ALT.

The Meaning Behind The Song: “Burning Down The House” by Talking Heads

We, the normal sane Americans who love traditional America of years gone by are currently facing the worst, most unhinged far left any American has ever faced in past decades, on our streets and in Congress. They tell us Biden is just fine and an excellent orator. They tell us that global warming is going to destroy us all in a matter of a few short years to scam us out of more tax dollars. And hundreds of thousands of illegal aliens continue to pour across our wide-open borders, both north and south, surely to add several million more to the 30 to 40 million already here, before Biden is all said and done, with so many in their ranks so damned ungrateful and belligerent. Most of them know very little English, if any, and so, we just recently saw illegal aliens from the Congo in Africa demanding aid workers speak Congolese — even tho’ it’s a requirement that anyone seeking residency or citizenship in America must speak functional English.

Cost of War

Now of course, a treaty is only as good as the parties involved, as Stalin soon found out, and Biden could abandon Israel completely, if he so desired, but not without serious global ramifications and eventual consequences to the U.S.. If you have too big a wad, hide it somewhere safe. They can keep your cash after you deposit it.If you have a high-flying lifestyle that you want to continue, the gray life isn’t for you. I think he’s right, and in most cases it’s far more than 10%, but it’s never a majority, and overall, they are there to serve themselves. If we allow our borders to be closed PERIOD, we will be locked in.. Admittedly, its hard to differentiate between the two ideologies in practice in the U.S. today, but the theories are still clear.

It’s called “self-defense”, a thing that’s just as good for nations as it is for individuals. There aren’t any worse “barbarians” in the world today, than the world’s Muslims, Hamas and the mythological “palestinians” who are nothing less than Arab Muslims following the edicts and fatwas of the Verse of the Sword and whatever cleric or mullah or ayatollah that has their ear on any given day. Israel was right to build their own wall to keep these murderous Muslims out of their nation and their communities. There is no part of the government that is responsible to the people at this time. Probably because you start every conversation being extremely disrespectful and then you’re shocked when someone throws it back at you. I have a low tolerance for your kind of false bravado and small-minded ignorance and bullshit and disrespect.

Talking Heads - Burning Down The House Lyrics

Simply repealing the 17 Amendment would go a long way toward limiting our federal government. That would be much easier than waiting around for all the “moral” people to rise up and improve our governments. Imagining that a whole people can be made more “moral” by any positive action of government (or society, though society has a better chance…), so that government itself can be run properly is nonsense the Anti-federalists would have laughed at. There are always enough moral people, and too many who are immoral, with the immoral tending toward seeking to gain power over others for their own benefit. Be patient it’s only a matter of time until the government triggers someone enough to go off the reservation giving the FEDS an opportunity to show the sheep what raw power looks like. The catalyst will likely be a government kangaroo court trial and execution of a normal citizen to further cow the sheep into compliance.

The Mayor of Portland even stated he was a member of Antifa. Nothing was done in Portland, Austin TX and other cities without making sure it didn’t “offend” Antifa “leaders”. There are times when a fine ally can be much appreciated, but as one who believes in free will, each individual and each nation has to decide these things for themselves. But no one stands entirely alone, not for long anyway, not easily, and if they do, it often comes at the price of their freedom or their life.

Speaking in Tongues [Bonus Tracks]

The word “ally” has several different connotations and can mean a variety of things. Without any allies in this world, in business or life in general, you and anyone else are left out there with the wind whistlin’ at Your back and all alone. If the early Colonists hadn’t allied themselves together in the cause of freedom and liberty, our nation would never have been formed.

Max Illidge (credited as Max Loving), vocalist of the band 40 Below Summer, and Rockets Redglare appear as the younger selves of Byrne and Jerry Harrison, respectively. “Burning Down the House” became Talking Heads' highest charting single in North America. It peaked at #9 on the Billboard Hot 100, as well as #8 in Canada. However, it failed to chart outside of North America.

The worse thing the U.S. and previous administrations ever did was enter this unholy trade alliance, in order to receive cheap Chinese goods that aren’t worth a damn, as it simultaneously started outsourcing its labor and killed off our manufacturing base. We were once the top producers and exporters of top quality goods in the world, especially regarding U.S. steel. Free trade and free associations are great, but a nation cannot actually implement true free trade between such disparate nations and different systems such as exist between the U.S. and China. However, over the decades since Nixon, it seems as tho’ our leaders have opted to become more like China in order to make things more balanced, even as China steals our wealth and our technology through the existing unfair trade practices it exerts. I only intended “well & fine” in the context of the sentence that explains we are obligated by several treaties with Israel.

With regular betrayals such as this from so-called Republicans and the continued destructive efforts by Democrats to “fundamentally transform America” into a full-blown authoritarian state, it isn’t any wonder that many Americans are looking for alternatives to both parties, to this system in fact. It’s every agency that has fat ass Commie holdovers deeply entrenched in their positions making illegal and unconstitutional “rules and regulations” that are given the full weight of “law” even tho’ not one single vote has ever been made to pass them legitimately, a sort of administrative tyranny. This isn’t unlike the tyranny that comes from the High Court as well, whose only job is to rule on any law’s constitutionality, not make law; but it’s rulings have always been taken as the law of the land, unless and until challenged by some citizen or nullified by a president’s refusal to enforce them, which has been proper in some past cases.

New York City has been handing out prepaid cash cards for several months now, according to Fox News and The New York Post, with each illegal receiving as much as $10,000. But it doesn’t do any good when Republicans have this power and refuse to use it for fear of repercussions in the arena of public opinion, even when their cause is right and just. It’s as tho’ they’d rather take the defeat than actually win for all Americans and maybe take a few insults fro our enemies-from-within. More than this, too often it actually seems as if they too have grown to love their spending packages every bit as much as the Democrats, with everybody tossing dollars around like so much candy for their special interest buddies and very few supporters, never really benefitting the average American and the “little man” in America. Today, our national debt is clipping right at $35 trillion and we keep spending nearly two trillion dollars more than we receive annually, raising our debt-to-GDP ratio to better than 120 percent, a level unseen since 1945.

Stinnett’s claims of “intercepts” are contradicted by Japanese testimony, which unequivocally state there were none, and even transmitter keys were removed from radios of ships in the task force. Among them would have to be Lt. Kermit Tyler who, on the morning of 7 December, was contacted about a radar contact on an inbound flight, and told the operators to forget about it. One would also have to include the Navy duty officer, who was asleep when the destroyer USS Ward first tried to report a minisub contact,] thereby losing over three hours’ warning. It would also include the officer who ordered USAAC fighters be parked in close proximity to avoid sabotage. Also included would be the senior antiaircraft officers, who ordered ammunition to be locked up far from the guns. No matter the issue one cares to inspect, from abortion to gun control, far too many of America’s so-called leaders are doing whatever they damned well please, no matter that their decisions may run contrary to their constituents’ expressed desire and wishes.

One cannot forget that only approximately ten percent of the Republican Congressional Caucus is comprised of fiscally responsible, liberty-loving, truly conservative patriotic Americans who actually do their dead level best to put America and her people’s Inalienable God-given Rights first every day. Geffen Records made history on June 27, 1994 when Aerosmith's "Head First" became the first major label song made available for exclusive digital download. Download speeds at the time were so slow it took around 75 minutes to download the track. As music critic Chris Molanphy has noted, “Burning Down The House” is a song that manages to be both catchy and meaningful.

The pressure hull is a pressure tight enclosed structure with atmospheric pressure within its enclosed volume. Even then, it is required to provide means to pass from inside to outside in both, surfaced and submerged conditions. For this purpose, circular hatches (conning tower at the centre, one hatch at forward and aft, each) are provided for access of personnel. Penetrations are provided for access of pipelines and cables that connect equipment which are housed outside the pressure hull but are actuated from inside.

Once the batteries are discharged, the submarine must come to the surface to run the diesel engine coupled generator and charge the battery. Hence the time the submarine can spend underwater depends on the battery capacity. Submarines may have radar equipment for detecting surface ships and aircraft. Periscopes are not normally used, except when a contact’s identity is to be verified.

This Confederate submarine called the could be propelled at four knots by a hand-driven screw. Unfortunately, the submarine sank twice during trials in Charleston, South Carolina. These accidental sinkings in Charleston harbor cost the lives of two crews. In the second accident the submarine was stranded on the bottom and Horace Lawson Hunley himself was asphyxiated with eight other crew members. Then came another American, Robert Fulton, who in 1801 successfully built and operated a submarine in France, before turning his inventing talents to the steamboat.

Biography - Horace Lawson Hunley 1823-1863

Voice communication from one submarine is transmitted by low power speakers into the water, where it is detected by passive sonars on the receiving submarine. The range of this system is probably very short, and using it radiates sound into the water, which can be heard by the enemy. Civilian submarines, such as the DSV Alvin or the Russian Mir submersibles, rely on small active sonar sets and viewing ports to navigate. The human eye cannot detect sunlight below about 300 feet (91 m) underwater, so high intensity lights are used to illuminate the viewing area. Germany is working on the torpedo tube-launched short-range IDAS missile, which can be used against ASW helicopters, as well as surface ships and coastal targets. The Kockums shipyard responsible for the design of the x-stern on Swedish submarines eventually exported it to Australia with the Collins class as well as to Japan with the Sōryū class.

The keel for California (SSN-781) was laid in May 2010 and delivery was made in August 2011. Historical accounts point out that man has always sought to explore the ocean depths. An early record from the Nile Valley in Egypt gives us the first illustration. It is a wall painting that shows duck hunters, bird spears in hand, creeping up to their prey beneath the surface as they breathe through hollow papyrus reeds. The Athenians are said to have used divers to clear the harbor entrance during the siege of Syracuse. Though expressed as separate objectives they are interactive and may on occasion be incompatible.

With this background, we are only too well aware of the dearth of textbooks on submarine design and engineering. This book explores the many engineering and architectural aspects of submarine design and how they relate to each other and the operational performance required of the vessel. Concepts of hydrodynamics, structure, powering and dynamics are explained, in addition to architectural considerations which bear on the submarine design process. The interplay between these aspects of design is given particular attention, and a final chapter is devoted to the generation of the concept design for the submarine as a whole. Submarine design makes extensive use of computer aids, and examples of algorithms used in concept design are given. The emphasis in the book is on providing engineering insight as well as an understanding of the intricacies of the submarine design process.

World War I

submarine design

During World War II, the submarine force was the most effective anti-ship and anti-submarine weapon in the entire American arsenal. Navy, destroyed over 30 percent of the Japanese Navy, including 8 aircraft carriers, 1 battleship and 11 cruisers. U.S. submarines also destroyed over 60 percent of the Japanese merchant fleet, crippling Japan's ability to supply its military forces and industrial war effort. Allied submarines in the Pacific War destroyed more Japanese shipping than all other weapons combined.

Such a loss could result in higher costs and delays when the next submarine design is undertaken, as well as risks to system performance and safety. The authors estimate and compare the costs and delays of letting design capability erode vs. those of alternative means of managing the workload and workforce over the gap in design demand and beyond. When the submarine wants to come back to the surface, compressed air is pumped through the valve; the air fills the ballast tank driving the water away. As the air fills the ballast tank, the submarine slowly rises to the surface.

Today submarines are generally lone wolfs because of the difficulty of identifying whether a target is friend or foe. This is even more of a challenge for armed drones, which lack human judgement. It will be for naval architects to see how the new technologies, such as AI, automation and quantum ... This submarine carries a food stock sufficient for 2 to 3 months and comes to the surface after 2.5 months for replenishment with a fresh stock of food and to attend to other things like maintenance issues and change of crew members. Passive Sonar is a set of precision hydrophones that are placed in a unit towed by the submarine, and the towed unit can be more than 200 to 500 feet away behind the submarine.

Its different types of masts that are deployed from within the submarine when snorkels or sails just under the free surface. The B-39 skin visable to you is not part of the vessel’s pressure hull, which remains in good stable condition, so that materially, Foxtrot is no less seaworthy today, than 15 years ago. When the submarine needs to go down, the valve at the top of the ballast tank opens, the seawater floods the ballast tank and fills it driving the air away. Now the weight of the submarine is more than the water surrounding it; hence the submarine sinks.

Early submarines had few navigation aids, but modern subs have a variety of navigation systems. Modern military submarines use an inertial guidance system for navigation while submerged, but drift error unavoidably builds over time. To counter this, the crew occasionally uses the Global Positioning System to obtain an accurate position. The periscope—a retractable tube with a prism system that provides a view of the surface—is only used occasionally in modern submarines, since the visibility range is short.

High-strength alloy steel remains the primary material for submarines today, with 250–400-metre (820–1,310 ft) depths, which cannot be exceeded on a military submarine without design compromises. Titanium alloys can be stronger than steel, lighter, and most importantly, have higher immersed specific strength and specific modulus. Titanium submarines were built by the Soviet Union, which developed specialized high-strength alloys. Titanium alloys allow a major increase in depth, but other systems must be redesigned to cope, so test depth was limited to 1,000 metres (3,300 ft) for the Soviet submarine K-278 Komsomolets, the deepest-diving combat submarine.

Reproducing an Italian scheme developed by Giovanni Borelli in 1680, the article depicted a craft with a number of goatskins built into the hull. Borelli planned to submerge this vessel by filling the skins with water and to surface it by forcing the water out with a twisting rod. Even though Borelli's submarine was never built it provided what was probably the first approach to the modern ballast tank.

The submarine became a potentially viable weapon with the development of the first practical self-propelled torpedoes. The Whitehead torpedo was the first such weapon, and was designed in 1866 by British engineer Robert Whitehead. His 'mine ship' was an 11-foot (3.4 m) long, 14-inch (36 cm) diameter torpedo propelled by compressed air and carried an explosive warhead.

With the introduction of the type 212, the German and Italian Navies came to feature it as well. The US Navy with its Columbia class, the British Navy with its Dreadnought class, and the French Navy with its Barracuda class are all about to join the x-stern family. Hence, as judged by the situation in the early 2020s, the x-stern is about to become the dominant technology.

There are so many ways that you can go when curating your home office, but whatever your style, there are a few things to bear in mind across the board. It may not be to everyone’s liking to work in the middle of what is probably the most high-traffic area of the house, but for those who want (or need) to remain at the centre of the action, this is a smart solution. Where floor space is tight, make the best use of the room’s height by running a long shelf just below the ceiling to store work clutter out of sight.

A portable projector can be used for virtual presentations and also for entertaining. And those images can be cast in sizes ranging from 60 inches to 120 inches. Audio consists of two 5W Harman/Kardon speakers with Dolby Audio for distortion-free Hi-Fi sound. The projector has a 2.5-hour battery life and Android TV is built in. Another option, with a natural cork backing, is the Grovemade Leather Desk Pad, which is made of a premium vegetable-tanned leather.

Sophisticated decorative details such as brass trims and handles paired with a small-scale wallpaper strikes a balance between a masculine and feminine space in this home office. A striking pattern will inject just the right amount of flamboyance to add energy and foster creativity without dominating, as demonstrated in this study for an apartment by Studio Peake. If the desk stands within a larger, open-plan space, wallpapering the joinery surrounding it will help zone the work area from the rest of the room. A library books wallpaper adds a whimsical note and provides the ideal trompe l’oeil for a Zoom background.

Beautiful Celtic Knot Tattoos for Tattoo Lovers

Gaelic tattoos were traditionally not representational and didn’t show any specific characters or words. Instead, they were made up of intricate and interweaving lines that formed a complex cyclic pattern. On average, smaller Celtic tattoos might take a few hours, while expansive pieces like full-back designs or sleeves can range from 10 to 30 hours, spread over multiple sessions. Dragons became common elements in the coat of arms and family seals in this area for their strong associations with strength and wisdom, characteristics that every leader aspires to. From ink to intimidate foes, protective animals, or the meaning of life with no beginning nor end, there are all manner of rich Celtic tribal ink patterns. Contemporary Celtic tribal tattoo often features complex knotwork concepts, a mix of traditional and Christian symbolism, and fierce animal motifs.

Consistent line work and saturated portions of black help the aesthetic of this piece, despite the fact that it is unfinished.

Wearing a symbol without understanding its meaning might lead to unintended misrepresentations or misconceptions.

💙 Why are Celtic Tattoos Blue?

As you can see, the boar is usually represented in the side, with details in the skin and trying to give the curve and spiral patterns. Tree of life is for connecting two opposites, like life and death, earth and heaven, and to represent the connection between you, your parents and your sons. The one who added these figures is Broc, another artist focused on Celtic and Viking tattoo working at Nortants, in the UK. Yes, just three lines and a circle to represent the three goddesses in one culture. Maybe one of the most simple and beautiful symbols in all the Celtic world.

When diving deep into the captivating realm of Celtic tattoos, one cannot overlook the significant role of Celtic knots. These intricate patterns, a defining feature of Celtic tattoo designs, aren't merely aesthetic choices; each has a unique meaning, story, and history rooted in ancient Celtic culture.

Celtic sleeve tattoos allow the designer to get creative and combine various Celtic symbols and images into a cohesive and complementary scene.

Still, even today, many people get different Celtic tattoos on their bodies because of the definite meaning it holds and the lovely designs. The swirls and lines present in Celtic tattoos are what make it so unique and worth getting. Studio City Tattoo is a Studio City tattoo studio that was founded in 1992.

A metre below the earth's surface, however, the ground remains at a relatively constant temperature. Utilizing this large source of relatively moderate temperature earth, a heating or cooling system's capacity can often be significantly reduced. Although ground temperatures vary according to latitude, at 1.8 metres (6 ft) underground, temperatures generally only range from 7 to 24 °C (45 to 75 °F). Ductless mini-split systems remove the need for central cooling and heating units, allowing you to control temperatures in individual rooms for maximum energy efficiency. For example, you can set your bedrooms and kitchen at a cool 68 degrees with your living room at a warmer temperature for ideal comfort everywhere you go.

“If it gets dirty, even though it's rated for 90 days, you'd want to change it because you don't want to restrict the air flow,” Rohde said, explaining that the buildup of dirt on the air filter can clog the system. Winters and Rohde stressed the importance of changing the air filter in the HVAC. Filters should be changed every 30 or 90 days depending on the filter’s rating on the box.

When economizing, the control system will open (fully or partially) the outside air damper and close (fully or partially) the return air damper. When the outside air is cooler than the demanded cool air, this will allow the demand to be met without using the mechanical supply of cooling (typically chilled water or a direct expansion "DX" unit), thus saving energy. The control system can compare the temperature of the outside air vs. return air, or it can compare the enthalpy of the air, as is frequently done in climates where humidity is more of an issue. In both cases, the outside air must be less energetic than the return air for the system to enter the economizer mode. Mechanical, or forced, ventilation is provided by an air handler (AHU) and used to control indoor air quality. Excess humidity, odors, and contaminants can often be controlled via dilution or replacement with outside air.

It's not a guarantee that nothing will ever go wrong, but regular and properly performed maintenance can make all the difference. If you can stay on top of your HVAC system, you can prevent outages, cut costs and even maintain cleaner air. A drawback is the installation cost, which can be slightly higher than traditional HVAC systems. Natural ventilation is not practical in much of the infrastructure because of climate.

Hearts broke when IHOP took their Cinn-A-Stack pancakes off the menu, and it's no wonder — they're delicious, and there's no way we could possibly have too many ways to legitimately have dessert for breakfast. It's a bit ironic that the International House of Pancakes became such an iconic piece of Americana, but it turns out that "international" didn't refer to any aspirations of becoming an internationally, globally-recognized chain.

Nods to Pasadena’s famous peacocks can be found throughout the designs, and many creators fearlessly brought in statement floors, enveloped their spaces with jewel tones, and added texture to ceilings. Others focused on bringing the beauty of the estate’s gardens and views inside with verdant murals, floral fabrics, and nature-inspired lighting. In 1993, IHOP introduced the first major addition to its menu since the 1980s, unveiling Country Griddle Cakes in September 1993, pairing itself with Nabisco, whose Cream of Wheat product was a primary ingredient in the pancakes.

This no-fuss 24/7 diner opened back in 1924, and has probably been serving these straightforward buttermilk pancakes since its opening day. There’s not much that needs to be said about these flapjacks – eating them at the restaurant’s worn counter just feels right. Hand-painted floors were the jumping-off point for designer Amy Peltier’s soothing primary bedroom design. “It was so much work, but it turned out beautiful.” The firm wanted the space to feel “light and airy and breezy,” and incorporated fabrics and wall coverings by Thibaut in a soft color palette.

According to the Toluca Lake Chamber of Commerce, they weren't just the home of Warner Brothers, Amelia Earhart, and, at one time, saber-toothed tigers, they were also the home of the first IHOP. It opened in 1958, and even though it's a joint called Mo's now, there's another bit of fascinating history standing at that particular corner. It's right across the street from the country's oldest Big Boy, which opened in 1949 — making that intersection home to a special bit of Americana.

The Shops at the Showcase offer an array of merchants, from handmade jewelry to artisanal chocolates, and are also home to the Shops’s Wine & Cheese Bar. In 1981, IHOP became a private company when Jahn repurchased 52 percent of its stock. Unfortunately, while many thought that Jahn had used the profits from Wienerwald to enact the purchase, he had actually borrowed $8 million to complete the $12 million transaction. Wienerwald declared bankruptcy in August 1982, leaving IHOP to SVIDO, a Swiss holding company which had no restaurant management background and left IHOP's management in place to run the chain. While IHOP grew steadily throughout the 1960s, International Industries continued to expand its portfolio by obtaining additional businesses each year. By the early 1970s, International Industries was overflowing with businesses, but IHOP was one of only two that were producing a profit.

Whether you're hungry for one of our popular breakfast items or looking for lunch, dinner, or late night dining ideas there is an IHOP® location near you ready to serve. Designer Stephanie Hatten updated the Gatehouse Kitchen, turning it into an airy English-country-inspired space. An eye-catching natural stone by Walker Zanger was selected for the counters and backsplash, and the space was outfitted with the latest Monogram appliances.

Peltier and designer Marina Kelly installed an arch to divide the bedroom from the sitting area, breaking up the large space. Same store sales appeared to be gaining momentum in 2003 as IHOP management worked to position the company as the leading family dining destination in the industry. Usurping competitors Denny's and Waffle House from their top spots, however, was contingent upon the success of the new franchise model and the firm's aggressive branding campaign.

Although IHOP had just brought attention to itself by entering the public arena in 1991, it had actually been enjoying increases in its revenues every month since the early 1980s. The first International House of Pancakes restaurant opened in 1958 in Toluca Lake, California, under the direction of founder Al Lapin, Jr. After winning over consumers with its affordable pancake breakfasts and numerous flavored syrups, the business quickly expanded into a small chain of restaurants. Weekend patrons were often confronted with lines that stretched all the way out the establishments' doors. A year later, in 1959, the IHOP chain became an operating division of International Industries, a public company that held more than 20 different businesses and was strongly rooted in the franchising concept.

The introduction of Country Griddle Cakes came at an excellent time for IHOP, and the new pancakes and their advertising campaign were a quick success. The 1990s saw a more nutritionally aware clientele, and pancakes have a good overall nutritional profile. This was especially true for Country Griddle Cakes, which contain nonfat yogurt, Cream of Wheat cereal, and skim milk. A Restaurants & Institutions survey revealed that the top trends for the food service industry to follow were home-style value meals, combo breakfasts, anything in a skillet, and pancakes.

Each item was $.99 additional at the restaurant we went to, making healthier eating more expensive then eating unhealthy, disease-promoting foods. Take other chains like Olive Garden, The Cheesecake Factory and California Pizza Kitchen. These places would never be a first choice for me because I prefer restaurants that are 100% vegan and I especially love organic options. But when there is a group outing with people that have different food requirements these restaurants have figured out how to satisfy everyone. They have good vegan options and are sensitive to people with allergies, especially those who can’t eat gluten.

Before there was IHOP, there was "The Beast with 1,000,000 Eyes," "The Day the World Ended," and "The Phantom from 10,000 Leagues." If these sound like B-movies, it's because they are. Kallis was recruited by B-movie director Roger Corman in the mid-1950s to design posters for dozens of awful horror movies featuring werewolves, sea serpents, giant, veiny-headed aliens, and scantily-clad women. Legend says Slenderman loves pancakes, but that's probably the only link between IHOP and horror movies you've ever pondered. So, it may surprise you to learn that IHOP and the horror genre actually have a much deeper link that goes all the way back to its earliest years.

Analyst predictions of the early 1990s rang true when Forbes magazine once again added the company to its "200 Best Small Companies" list as IHOP's stock price rose by nearly 60 percent over a 12-month period. The firm moved from the NASDAQ to the New York Stock Exchange in 1999. After years of slowly restructuring the company and reinvesting its profits in further improvements, IHOP and its stock were continuing to soar. Suddenly, financial analysts were taking note, hailing the corporation as an overnight phenomenon with the potential of a gold mine. Forbes magazine ranked IHOP 102 out of 200 of the best small companies in the United States, one of only three food service companies to be included. Analysts were predicting huge rises in the stock's value, some as high as 60 percent.

IHOP Confirms It Didn't Actually Change Its Name to International House of Burgers.

This down and dirty family-run restaurant has been serving West LA since 1982. That homey feel comes across in the pancakes, the no-nonsense buttermilk flapjacks that come golden and relatively thick. Back in 2018, IHOP announced that it was planning to change its name to IHOB, but didn't say why. All across America, people were like, "Huh?" IHOP let this go on for a week before finally announcing that the "B" stands for "burgers," and it wouldn't actually be changing its name. It turns out that the weird IHOB tease was really meant to remind people that it sells burgers and is open for lunch and dinner.

comments for “My visit to IHOP, the International House of Pancakes.”

The purchase was part of IHOP's master plan to take over the chain restaurant universe — just kidding, but it was part of their plan to transform their business into a franchise system. Shortly after the acquisition, the parent company of both brands renamed itself "Dine Brands." Sure, you can make pancakes at home pretty easily, but head out to breakfast (or lunch, or dinner) at IHOP, and it's easy to please the entire family. IHOP is so iconic that you can identify the shape of that building long before you even catch a glimpse of a sign, but there are still plenty of things you might not know about this American family favorite. If you're dining in, you can scan a QR code to automatically add the Pancoins to your account.

The lunch and dinner menu was also crafted to accommodate the eating habits of IHOP's more nutritionally aware customers by offering vegetarian plates, chicken, and seafood. IHOP Corporation operates and franchises the International House of Pancakes restaurant concept in the United States and Canada. In fact, IHOP is among those companies responsible for the prevalence of affordable full-service family dining. The company now stands as the third-largest family-style dining chain, just behind Denny's Corporation and Waffle House Inc. In 2003, the IHOP system included over 1,136 International House of Pancakes restaurants in 48 states and Canada. Each year, IHOP restaurants serve over 700 million pancakes, 20 million pounds of breakfast meats, and over 300 million cups of coffee.

What would I do to change things at IHOP, to bring it up to the 21st century? To start, I’d make the International House of Pancakes worthy of their name. Where are the French Buckwheat Crepes, the Italian Socca made with Garbanzo Bean Flour, the British Oat Cakes, the Indian Dosa made with Lentil Flour or Asian Rice Flour Pancakes from Korea, Taiwan or China? What is wonderful about all of these authentically international pancakes is that they can be wheat-free and gluten-free! And here at Responsible Eating And Living we make them all, without dairy or eggs.

Designer Ashleigh Miranda focused on juxtaposing technology and earthy elements in her moody media room. As the Pasadena Showcase House of Design enters its 59th year, it’s returning to a familiar setting.

Elegant pancakes and the brown sticky goodness they have as a syrup. Nicely crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside with conspicuous buttermilk flavor, these are pancakes prepared just right.

IHOP: 17 Facts About The Pancake Palace

Along with the newly acquired IHOP chain, International Industries franchised many other restaurant and food service concepts, including Copper Penney coffee shops, Love's Wood Pit Barbecue, and the Orange Julius chain. With a few simple modifications, IHOP could be offering some healthier fare and make their restaurant more inclusive, where everyone could happily dine together without fear of an allergic reaction. The IHOP menu does give you the option of making your own custom omelette. You can add “Fresh Green Peppers & Onions, Fresh Tomatoes, Fresh Spinach, Fresh Mushrooms and Avocado” adding fiber and phyto-nutrients to your cholesterol-laden dish, making IHOP omelettes “healthier”.

It seemed that IHOP's strategic priorities were right on the money, and the company entered the mid-1990s in a position to strengthen its standing in the family dining market. Shortly after the commencement of unit renovations and the introduction of lunch and dinner items, IHOP began experiencing a steady increase in sales. Most newly renovated IHOP restaurants doubled their annual sales, and soon many of them were breaking the $1 million mark each year, up from $300,000 a year before the changes. Many franchisees attributed this sudden success in the lunch and dinner market to the attractive prices offered at IHOP.

IHOP also began offering special breakfast promotions and deals at its restaurants, believing that customers captured during the breakfast hours would be more likely to return at lunch and dinner as well. For example, in 1985 the Rooty-Tooty Fresh 'N Fruity special--which included two eggs, two sausage links, two bacon strips, two fruit pancakes, and coffee--was offered in various markets for either $1.99 or $2.49. Similar dinner specials were soon introduced at most locations at prices that placed IHOP solidly into the budget and fast-food pricing arena.
