The box that Alex, our ring bearer, will be carrying, complete with wedding rings which should be ready tomorrow... but I won't get my hopes up because they were supposed to be ready a week ago!
The eastern box turtle (Terrapene carolina carolina) is a terrestrial turtle native to the Eastern United States. This species is characterized by its distinctive hinged shell, which allows it to completely close its shell for protection.

The only clues that I have so far are these. On the back of one of the boxes there is some hand writing:
“Decoration Day Procession” which later became Veterans Day.
“Crematory”
“1898”

This box lid was inspired by some Pysanka egg designs and i wanted to capture the feel of them in glass. Its not the largest box I have ever done, but it was one of the most difficult and intricate. The tree in the diamond in the center is only 1.5 inches high. I am quite pleased with how it turned out.

Now I have wanted to broaden it by showing the number of deaths in the most bloody wars in history of man, always consequence of the ambition of a greedy minority.
I conclude with a card that poses the question of how many casualties will left the global financial crisis that started in 2008, now considered by many as our III War World.
For the time being we have only information about the people killed in protests, occupations and rallies, or of those who have killed themselves bankrupt for junk bonds, subprime credits or whatever other kind of those economy tricks, but we should start counting all the people slowly dying at home in the streets or in hospitals by depression, hunger, shame, or rage due to the cuts in the welfare state.
Inside the box there are 12 cards with a drawing on one side and one of the following texts on the other:
Card 1
Spanish Civil War 1936- 1950: 700,000 dead
Card 2
World War II 1939- 1945: 75 million dead
Card 3
World War I 1914 - 1918: 31 million dead
Card 4
Napoleonic Wars 1799- 1815: 7,203,000 dead
Card 5
Russian Civil War 1917 – 1922: 20 million dead
Card 6
Darfur Conflict 2003-2011: 450,000 dead
Card 7

I've been thinking about a new way to keep my personal boxscore in a new graphical way. This is based on a sketch I did while I was thinking about it. I don't know if there has been a modern way of keeping statistics in baseball other that the typical scorecard. All suggestions and comment are welcome!!
This is the basic layout of a personal box score, for only a game, splitted in At-bats. you can see the date, the turn, and the result. A filled base means I reached that base, an dashed outline means I did not reach thanks to an out, and inside the base is how the putout happened. If I reach a base AFTER my at-bat, either by an error on another players at bat, a stolen base or a hit, I fill it with white. Let me know what you think, this is just an idea I had so I score my own games in a more personal way.
I think the best way to view it is here: www.flickr.com/photos/pixteca/9157309838/sizes/h/in/photo...
This is my “Black Palm, Satinwood and Lacewood” Ring Box. It measures 3 1/2” x 3 1/2” and is 2” high. There are 72 pieces, both full and half size diamonds and triangles, on this box. On the top there are 32 half-size pieces where it would normally have 16 full size pieces. It is finished in its natural color with 1 coat of varnish brushed on and 3 coats of clear wiping varnish, rubbed in by hand. The pieces are a bit over 3/16” thick, glued onto a Baltic Birch base.
The type of wood is listed on the bottom of the box from the center out. On this box is “Black Palm” from Indonesia. (I cut this wood at an angle to give the black dots a different look.) “Satinwood” from Sri Lanka is a wood with a beautiful golden satiny luster to it. Then “Lacewood” from Australia is a wood that has a nice coppery sheen to it.
This box is all made from very exotic wood.
I made this box in 2004. On the bottom I signed it, listed the wood, and dated it. After the date, the words “Foot Cut” let you know I made it on a foot powered table saw.
It is lined with black velveteen. It has 3 “ring pads” on the bottom forming 2 slots about 2 ½” long, for rings.
Mr Box Turtle and I were picking blackberries in the front yard. Hadn't seen the rascal in a while, it has been here for the 32 yrs that I bave lived here and he will likely out live me as they get to be 150 or so. Always enjoy seeing it. Check it's video out. The Muscadinevines seem to provide a challenge for him. .
The only clues that I have so far are these. On the back of one of the boxes there is some hand writing:

Picked these up at Giant Eagle yesterday in a display in the aisle of the baby stuff. They also had a round one tier box like the square one that was a little smaller and (I think) had a built in dip container.
The box on the left was $3.50 and the "cereal container" on the right was $6.50.
They also had Diego, Disney Princess and Spiderman themed containers. Made by "Zak" and dubbed "EZ Freeze."
This is a "blind ballot box" that was used by Hose Co. No. 3 for silent votes taken of the membership. Black and white marbles were kept in the open end. Dropping a white marble into the hole signified a supporting vote, while a black one signified a “no” vote.
Because in some cases a single black ball could determine a vote, having been voted down by a single dissenting vote came to be known as bring "blackballed." In many instances (including this specimen), the black marbles were replaced with black cubes so that a dirty white marble could not have been mistaken for a black one.

SPLENDOUR ON THE GREEN.
Last year on a Saturday evening we drove to Harrogate, a pleasant spa town to the south-east of the Yorkshire Dales, famous for its tea shops (like Betty’s), flower shows, Turkish baths, antique shops and gardens. A very 'oldy worldy' place with a particular atmosphere.
Once a year in this huge green, the rows of trees lining the paths explode in splendour, the cherry trees. They criss-cross the lovely grassy field.
The first time we came across them... we were too late.
The next year... some trees had been chopped because of disease, leaving huge gaps...
The next year we forgot...
The next year it was a dreadful Spring with late frost, the blossoms hardly came out, a merciless storm threw them to the ground...
The next year we kept hearing on the news that although the money had been raised and the young trees planted to restore this visual feast, some vandals came and cracked the saplings...
Last year we forgot again…
This year, WE MADE IT!!!
The sky had been a milky soft box the whole day, but I sensed a glimmer of 'more', as everyone went home, the 'sun' came out gently for a while.
It was wonderful, the tender full blossoms ever so gently swaying in the warm evening light, walking in wonderland, so beautiful… so fleeting.
The next day it was windy, across from our house; the neighbours have a Cherry tree… most of the petals now a pink carpet on the ground… grab it while it's there!
Just a few of the images I came home with, a flavour of the opulence with which I was surrounded, what a feast for all the senses.
Have a glorious day and thanx, M, (*_*)
