Today at the Editor’s glance: The Flagler Beach City Commission meets at 5:30 p.m. at City Hall. Commissioners are expected to approve submitting a $17.6 million loan application to the State Revolving Fund to fund sewer plant repairs and expansion. Just months ago, the cost was to be up to $15 million. “All Things Christmas” Sale at Santa Maria Del Mar Catholic Church, 915 N Central Ave, Flagler Beach, continues. All proceeds will support the Society of Saint Vincent de Paul, Santa Maria del Mar Conference, with charitable activities helping support the needy in Flagler County. This event will feature a huge selection of Christmas items including wreaths, trees, lights, nativity scenes, stockings, Christmas cards, candles, ornaments, jewelry, linens, clothing and those unique Christmas T-shirts and sweaters that we all enjoy. All Things Christmas will include hundreds of items at thrift store prices. New merchandise will be added daily with many one-of-a-kind items selling quickly so plan to stop by more than once.

“The macho represents the masculine pole of life. The phrase ‘I am your father’ has no paternal flavor and is not said in order to protect or to guide another, but rather to impose one’s superiority, that is, to humiliate. Its real meaning is no different from that of the verb chingar and its derivatives. The macho is the gran chingon. One word sums up the aggressiveness, insensitivity, invulnerability and other attributes of the macho: power. It is force without the discipline of any notion of order: arbitrary power, the will without reins and without a set course.. ”
–Octavio Paz, from “The Labyrinth of Solitude” (1972).
