"Quem e atento a palavra encontra a felicidade, quem confia no Senhor e feliz."(Pr16,20)

Deus proíbe Moisés de atravessar o Jordão 

Deuteronômio 3

21 Também dei ordem a Josué no mesmo tempo, dizendo: Os teus olhos viram tudo o que o Senhor vosso Deus tem feito a esses dois reis; assim fará o Senhor a todos os reinos a que tu estás passando.

22 Não tenhais medo deles, porque o Senhor vosso Deus é o que peleja por nós.

23 Também roguei ao Senhor nesse tempo, dizendo:

24  O Senhor Jeová, tu já começaste a mostrar ao teu servo a tua grandeza e a tua forte mão; pois, que Deus há no céu ou na terra, que possa fazer segundo as tuas obras, e segundo os teus grandes feitos?

25 Rogo-te que me deixes passar, para que veja essa boa terra que está além do Jordão, essa boa região montanhosa, e o Líbano!

26 Mas o Senhor indignou-se muito contra mim por causa de vós, e não me ouviu; antes me disse: Basta; não me fales mais nisto.

27 sobe ao cume do Pisga, e levanta os olhos para o ocidente, para o norte, para o sul e para o oriente, e contempla com os teus olhos; porque não passarás este Jordão.

28 Mas dá ordens a Josué, anima-o, e fortalece-o, porque ele passará adiante deste povo, e o levará a possuir a terra que tu verás.

29 Assim ficamos no vale defronte de Bete-Peor.

Rihanna: LOUD Tour

One year ago today, after a tough battle with the special interests in Washington, President Obama signed Wall Street Reform into law.

That law does three important things. First, it brings to an end taxpayer funded bailouts, so taxpayers will never again be left paying the bill if a big bank fails. Second, it stops the reckless risk-taking by Wall Street that put consumers in jeopardy and led to the economic crisis. And third, this law puts in place the strongest consumer protections in history.

And to make sure you can count on those consumer protections, we put a first-ever consumer watchdog in charge. It’s a new bureau – a new cop on the beat – with just one job: looking out for families in the financial system.

Here’s a quick video we put together last year to explain it:

The President faced a lot of opposition when we fought for this bill. An army of lobbyists and lawyers were looking to preserve the status quo, and one year later, they’re still at it. The special interests are trying to water down what we passed, and spending tens of millions of dollars to get their way. And they’ve got friends in high places.

But President Obama has made it clear: he’s not going to let them win. He’ll veto any effort to weaken or repeal Wall Street Reform. He’s not going to let them take us backward.

We can’t afford to go back to the days when consumers were ripped off by misleading fees and deceptive lending and our economy was vulnerable to greed and recklessness -- not when we know that millions of middle class families are still hurting because of the damage that was done.

So we have a lot of work to do to rebuild this economy. We’ve got to rein in the deficit to put our economy on stronger footing and ensure that seniors and middle-class families aren’t bearing the entire burden when millionaires and billionaires, oil companies, hedge fund managers and corporate jet owners are let off the hook.

We’ve got to keep money in your pockets by preventing payroll taxes from going up for working people. We’ve got to continue to make smart investments in clean energy, innovation and technology to create the good paying jobs of the future.

But we’ve also got to keep up the fight to solve the problems that led us into this economic mess in the first place.

It comes down to this. You shouldn’t need to have lobbyists on the payroll to have your voice heard in Washington. And in your financial dealings, you deserve a basic measure of protection against abuse. You should have the freedom to buy a home or open a credit card or take out a student loan with confidence that you’re getting a fair deal.

That’s what these consumer protections will do. That’s why Wall Street Reform matters.

Sincerely,

David Plouffe


Senior Advisor to the President

STUDIO VISITS BY APPOINTMENT

Metamorphosis 

Metamorphosis is  a  new series inspired by the idea of The Element of  Styles. Some  works are minimal and other times more intense through the use of bold colors.  Each symbolism of color and shape is  interpreted differently which allows us to use our own imagination.  The works are surrounded by a  great variety of movement of expression and liberty. 

Alcinda Saphira

Alcinda Saphira  ( Painter,Sculptor and Jewelry Designer ) is from Brazil and has been living and maintaining her studio in Hastings on Hudson, New York. Her formal art education began at the Escola De Belas Artes Federal Da Bahia in Salvador, Bahia (School of Fine Arts at Bahia Federal University). After leaving her job as a television and radio producer at TV EDUCATIVA Salvador/Ba and transferring to TV CULTURA, the public broadcasting television service in her home region Belém/Pa  she sought out the traditional potteries in that part of the Amazon. For many years she traveled from one small town to another, studying ancient techniques while sharing back lessons learned at the academy. This became a crucial period in developing the visceral and political commitment to the survival of the Amazon that largely defined the shapes, colors, texture and themes of her work.
Today her work is more global and her techniques are unique.  Her works are enriched by transparencies and symbolic details, resulting in multiple colors and textures.
Saphira was awarded with the first place prize atUBENY International Competition, selected bytheGuggenheim Museum critics.
Currently, Saphira has been offering art classes in her studio in Hastings on Hudson and working as a free lance curator and project coordinator for The Brazilian Endowment for the Arts located in Manhattan, NY . In addition Saphira has been working as an independent curator promoting art events at different locations, such as: The United Nations, galleries in Chelsea NYC, and the Brazilian Art Expo in Massachusetts-Brazil.

In the past has free lanced with Wingspan Art Program, an after school program for kids.  Saphira has also done different workshops in places such as Central Park,  Pier 17, Ardsley Country Club,Aquafest-friends of Old Croton Aqueduct and more.

In 2009 she was selected as one of the three artists to contribute to the ongoing effort to beautify Downtown Yorkers, New York. She received a commission to create a mural for a building in Downtown Yorkers (the dimensions were dictated by the size of the building façade in downtown Yorkers 21x12’feet). The painting is part of the main street project sponsored by Yonrkers Downtown Water front Business improvement District in partnership with Raising Development.

Back in March, I was in the room as President Obama spoke to a group of young Americans of different political persuasions in Massachusetts. He spoke candidly and openly about the importance of compromise in our democracy — even from people who care passionately about their position. Take a look: One quote stuck with me: “the nature of our democracy and the nature of our politics is to marry principle to a political process that means you don't get 100% of what you want.” This is a President who believes searching for common ground is the right way to approach solving our problems. And in fact, in the divided government our country has chosen, it’s the only way we can. Unfortunately, that view isn’t shared by everyone in Washington, DC. And you can see that right now as the President is trying to bring people together to tackle our debt and get our fiscal house in order. This is a difficult process, and it means Republicans and Democrats need to step outside their political comfort zone and find some common ground. The President is willing to make tough cuts with real impacts, not easy decisions. But most Congressional Republicans have dug in and demanded that the sacrifice fall only on the middle class, seniors and struggling Americans. The President tried to make it easy for them by suggesting closing some of the most egregious loopholes for the very wealthiest Americans and special interests — so that hedge fund managers don’t pay lower taxes than firefighters and teachers, corporate jet owners don’t pay lower taxes than commercial airlines, and oil companies don’t get tax cuts at a time they are making record profits. Congressional Republicans have not yet given an inch even though the American people, regardless of which political party they belong to, overwhelmingly approve of this common sense, balanced approach. Our nation is climbing out of the worst recession since the Great Depression, and one of the most important things we can do to help the economy is to get our fiscal house in order and reduce our Nation’s deficit. We can’t let this moment pass us by. Compromise isn’t a dirty word — in fact, it’s the only way our democracy can get big things done. Sincerely, David Plouffe Senior Advisor to the President P.S. In his Weekly Address, the President calls on both parties to work together to find a balanced approach to solving our nation’s deficit problem.Watch the video.
