Edmund Burke Quote of The Week
December 20, 2012
“The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing.”
Attributed to Edmund Burke, (1729-1797)
Known as the Father of Conservatism, Burke, a native of Dublin and longtime Member of Parliament, was supportive of the American Revolution but condemned the French Revolution for its excesses. He wrote extensively on the role of government and was widely praised for his ability to clarify philosophical issues.
This quote, made popular by John Kennedy and attributed by him to Burke, is a good example of how difficult it can be to pin down exactly who said what several hundred years ago. According to The Quote Investigator, who often refers to The Quote Verifier by Ralph Keyes, it is likely that it may have been first pronounced in similar form by the Reverend Charles Aked, but is also attributed to Thomas Jefferson, John Stuart Mill and others. As with many of the quotable sentiments of the famous it has its roots in scripture, and expresses an ancient recognition that it is the duty of persons of good will to act, not merely to hope.

Video- Una Furtiva Lagrima from Carlo Vogele
Forwarded by FOB Charlie Carrol-
Carlo Vogele writes-
I shot this little musical film in my kitchen over a few weeks in late 2011. It is the result of my passion for beautiful sad opera songs and my interest in the tragic destiny of a fish.
It’s been in festivals this year, touring Annecy, Hiroshima, Ottawa, Telluride and more. It is also part of the 14th Animation Show of Shows. You can visit the blog for more making of pics and film info : furtivalagrimafilm.blogspot.com/

Christmas Wishes From Sunset Sailor
Hi Joey,
Just wanted to wish you and your family a very Merry Christmas and all the best for 2013.
You have the only blog that I follow daily. I look forward to browsing GoodMorningGloucester, much like it used to be popular to read the morning paper. Though I live in Connecticut, a piece of my heart always resides in Gloucester. Your blog is like a little piece of Gloucester, every day. You cover such a great mixture of the town, that it has a feel just as if I were there. You have a special relationship with the fisherman and all the town businesses, which you touch upon, one by one. I’ve even picked up a few good recipes from your blog. Heck, you have some of the best cooks in the world with Sista Felicia, Sheree DeLorenzo, Laurie Lufkin and others. One thing I’m thankful for this year, is GoodMorningGloucester.
Sincerely,
Alan (Sunset-Sailor on Flickr)

Gloucester Sports Legend Frank Destino Photo From Tucker
Hey Joe,
As you may know, my uncle Frank Destino passed away last week. I found this old photo and I think that might be David Cox on the far right. He graduated with Frank and thought he might like this. Please forward to him….
Best,
Tucker

Remembering one of Gloucester’s greatest athletes, Frank Destino
By Nick Curcuru Sports Editor
Superior athlete, outstanding football skill, one of the best athletes to play at Gloucester High School, wonderful human being.
Those were just a few of the words used to describe Frank Destino, a former GHS standout in both football and baseball. Destino passed away last Thursday at the age of 77, but the legacy he left behind in Gloucester will not soon be forgotten.

Gift Memberships – A win, win, win gifting solution!
Hi Joey,
We’re down to the wire on Christmas and I thought I would share this story about a great gift idea. Giving the gift of membership to one of your favorite organizations is a perfect way to tell somebody that you want them to share your interests and spend some time together. It’s extending a hand of friendship and inviting the recipient to join you in a common experience – not just at the time of giving the gift, but throughout the year and beyond! Read more…
Merry Christmas!
