Dramatic museum dedicated to the Vasa, a Swedish warship that sank on its maiden voyage.
Vasa sank on 10 August 1628 in Stockholm harbour, taking with her dozens of lives. Although her location was forgotten over time, Anders Franzen, a private researcher, launched a campaign to locate her. She was found in near complete shape and, following a daring operation, brought back to the surface.
The museum tells the story of the men and women who built and boarded the Vasa. The ship's impressive size and well preserved details make this a must see for any visitor to Stockholm.
Our little house doesn't have a radio.

Un grazie speciale a Giugj per aver reso soggetto di un suo quadro una delle mie fotografie, una mia immagine fonte ispiratrice di un dipinto, non può che rendermi orgoglioso e molto felice
The Foișor Church is located at 119 Foișorului Street in Bucharest, Romania.
It is dedicated to the Nativity of Mary.
Situated on a hillock, the church was founded by Smaranda, the third wife of Prince Nicholas Mavrocordatos, as a chapel for her houses.
The pisanie is from November 1745, marking the date of completion.
The princely houses offered a fine view of the Dâmbovița River.
They were linked to the Văcărești Monastery over the swampy ground in between by a wooden bridge provided with a turret or foișor.
This foisor gave rise to the name of the district and church.
The church and houses were placed under the authority of Radu Vodă Monastery, which owned the area.
Ban Mihail Cantacuzino mentioned the church as possessing an inn, namely the houses.
By 1813, the building was in ruins and needed repairs, carried out in 1849.
The iconostasis of the church was damaged by the 1838 earthquake.
Until 1880, the open portico served as a church school for the children of parishioners; a church singer would teach pupils to read the Horologion and the psalter.
In 1888-1889, the portico was enclosed with glass and the windows enlarged.
An ambon was installed and the old frescoes covered in oil paintings by Gheorghe Tattarescu.
A lead roof was added in 1914-1915, while an altar entrance room was added to the southeast.
Serving as a vestry and, in the basement, as a deposit for liturgical items, the small area is decorated similarly to the facade.
The interior, maintaining much of its original appearance, is in contrast with the exterior, modified during the 19th century.
In the 1980s, when the neighborhood underwent systematization, the architect in charge deliberately omitted the church from the plans he presented to dictator Nicolae Ceaușescu, in order to protect it from demolition.
The cross-shaped Foisor church measures 20.3 meters long by 8.7 meters wide, with an ample dome above the nave and a bell tower above the narthex.
The octagonal domes sit on square bases; their windows fit into recessed semicircular arches.
The narthex and portico area is significantly broader than the nave.
There is a cornice between the side apses and the narthex, beneath the joint roof.
The portico features three frontal three-lobed arches; the pediment above ends in a cross.
The portal leading to the narthex has a Brâncovenesc frame with floral motifs.
The pisanie sits above, displaying the Wallachian coat of arms.
The door, from 1757, has a special lock, signed by its maker, the carpenter Andrei.
The facades are divided into two sections of unequal size, separated by a simple string course.
On the lower side, there is a series of arched frames resting on simple columns; the windows, ending in arches, are between these.
The upper part is narrow.
On the west and north sides, there are medallions, once painted; on the south, horizontal fluting in the masonry and tracery carved in stone.
The portico has a vaulted ceiling and consolidated arches.
The narthex ceiling, typical for the 18th century, is also vaulted, ending in pendentives and wide lateral arches.
Portico and narthex are separated by a wall with three three-lobed arches held up by stone columns with slightly twisted double fluting.
The capitals, bases and two supports of the columns, decorated with flowers in relief, are characteristic of the Mavrocordatos era.
The columns on the side walls are worked simply in masonry.
The main dome rises above the austere nave, held up by arches and pendentives.
The 18th-century masonry iconostasis has door frames with accolades.
The bishop’s throne to the right and the side seats are finely carved in wood.
The ktetors’ portraits are on the right side of the narthex.
The churchyard is entered beneath a belfry built later.
Fragments of the old houses, built using narrow bricks, survive.
There are two old stone crosses inscribed in Romanian Cyrillic.
The church is listed as a historic monument by Romania's Ministry of Culture and Religious Affairs.
Foundation stone 29 Apr 1865 by Bishop Goold, architect William Wardill, dedicated 10 Mar 1871, extensions & tower 1905, architect W G Kell, enlarged 1962. First wooden church 1854, demolished 1874, replaced by brick school hall.
“The windows at the side and over the high altar, including the Nuns' Chapel, are stained glass, while others throughout the church (except those in front) are in leaded lights, embellished with emblems relating to sacred and appropriate subjects.” [Ovens & Murray Advertiser 25 Nov 1905 p 1]
“the appointment of the following gentlemen as trustees of church lands is announced as approved by his Excellency:- the Right Rev. J. A. Goold, the Rev. John Kennedy, Michael Cusack Esq., Benjamin Slater Esq., Ambrose M. Holway Esq., to be trustees of the ground reserved at Wangaratta for the use of the Roman Catholic Church.” [The Argus 23 Apr 1856]
“His Lordship the Roman Catholic Bishop of Melbourne lately paid a visit to the principal townships in this portion of his diocese. On the 29th ult. he laid the foundation of St. Patrick's Church at Wangaratta.” [Ovens & Murray Advertiser 24 May 1866]
“A striking feature of the new building will be a stone tower to be erected on the front elevation at the north (or school) side, and which will be surmounted by a spire, built of steel, with copper castings, the height from ground to final being 80ft. A handsome stained-glass window will occupy a position somewhat relative to the present front entrance door, and access to the church will be gained through a stone porch of ornate design. . . On the north side, also, a second entrance by means of a handsome porch will be provided, and on the opposite walls escape doors are to>be placed in compliance with the Board of Health conditions.” [Ovens & Murray Advertiser 30 Apr 1904]
“St Patrick’s Church, Wangaratta, was blessed and re-opened last Sunday by his Grace the Archbishop of Melbourne. . . The church has recently undergone extensive alterations and- additions. . . The building is constructed of local granite, in the style of early English architecture. The principal feature is a spire 86 feet high.” [Advocate, Melbourne 25 Nov 1905]
“The formal .opening of St. Patrick's Church, Wangaratta, which has recently been enlarged at a cost of over £5000, took place last Sunday. At half-past 10 there was a very large number waiting at the doors for admission, and long before 11 o'clock every available space In the large edifice was filled, and many were unable to obtain admission. The Missa Cantata was celebrated by Rev. Dr. Flynn, and the choir sang Haydn's Third Mass (‘The Imperial’). . . The choir was assisted by several members of the Presbyterian and Church of England choirs.” [Ovens & Murray Advertiser 25 Nov 1905 p 4]
“It was during 1853 that the population was sufficient to warrant the holding of services here, and a priest then occasionally visited from Beechworth, which was the centre of the parish for some years. In the absence of a church Father Smith celebrated the first mass in Wangaratta in the dining room of Crisp's Royal Hotel, and on later visits pitched a tent that accommodated himself and his altar assistants while his congregation performed their devotions in the open air opposite. . . As population increased an effort was made to secure the erection of a suitable church building, but in the early stages the residents suffered a heavy loss by the theft of £360 from the priest who had charge of the money while he was lodging at Crisp's Royal Hotel. . . A weatherboard building, erected on the site of St. Patrick's School, served for several years as schoolhouse and church. . . The wooden schoolhouse and church having begun to fall into serious disrepair, the late Rev. Father Galen initiated a movement for a new church and work was begun in 1865.” [Ovens & Murray Advertiser 25 Nov 1905 p 1]
Dedicated to Notre-Dame-de-Roscudon, the church dates, for the oldest parts, from the 12th and 13th centuries.
On the south facade, the porch flourishes, a veritable lace of stone, erected at the end of the 14th century.
From the height of its 63 meters, the needle of the mid-15th century bell tower served as a model for the spiers of the St Corentin cathedral in Quimper.
I stopped in to the Fargo Public Library to escape the rain for a few minutes. In the Friends Book Sale room I found a copy of the 1949 Dacotah, the yearbook of the University of North Dakota.
The content of the yearbook was very much of its time. The end papers and the pages separating each section had these purple sketches with the curious octopus-alien hybrid creature who seemed to be acting as our guide. This is the first page in the book (there book does not have a title page).
The book was only a dollar or two so I bought it to bring back with me. Actually, the book is large and heavy so I mailed it to New York along with a bunch of other stuff I had bought on the trip.

Dedicated to Inari, the Japanese fox goddess, Fushimi-Inari-taisha is the head shrine (taisha) for 40,000 Inari shrines across Japan. Stretching 230 meters up the hill behind it are hundreds of bright red torii (gates). A visitor could easily spend several hours walking up the hillside, taking in the beautiful views of the city of Kyoto and walking through the torii, which appear luminescent in the late afternoon sun. Countless stone foxes, also referred to as Inari, are also dotted along the path.
A church was first built in 450 and dedicated to saint Peter and Saint Paul. In the second half of the 9th century and over the course of the 10th century, the earlier church was demolished to build a larger one and a tall bell tower, both of which survive. This new church was dedicated to Saint Peter and named San Pietro Maggiore. It was handed over to the Franciscans in 1261 and rededicated to Francis of Assisi.
Dante’s funeral was held in the church in 1321 and his remains still rest in the tomb next to the church. Between 1500 and 1700 the church was restored again and Baroque altars and decorations were added. Between 1918 and 1921, in preparation for the 600th anniversary of Dante's death, the church was radically restored, removing all the Baroque additions and returning it to something like its original style. The crypt was restored in the 20th century and in 1949 the Franciscans took on the church once again.

The Lockheed Martin HC-130J Hercules The Combat King II is the U.S. Air Force's only dedicated fixed-wing personnel recovery platform and is flown by the Air Education and Training Command (AETC) and Air Combat Command (ACC). This C-130J variation specializes in tactical profiles and avoiding detection and recovery operations in austere environments. The HC-130J replaces HC-130P/Ns as the only dedicated fixed-wing Personnel Recovery platform in the Air Force inventory. It is an extended-range version of the C-130J Hercules transport. Its mission is to rapidly deploy to execute combatant commander directed recovery operations to austere airfields and denied territory for expeditionary, all weather personnel recovery operations to include airdrop, airland, helicopter air-to-air refueling, and forward area ground refueling missions. When tasked, the aircraft also conducts humanitarian assistance operations, disaster response, security cooperation/aviation advisory, emergency aeromedical evacuation, and noncombatant evacuation operations.
Features
Modifications to the HC-130J have improved navigation, threat detection and countermeasures systems. The aircraft fleet has a fully-integrated inertial navigation and global positioning systems, and night vision goggle, or NVG, compatible interior and exterior lighting. It also has forward-looking infrared, radar and missile warning receivers, chaff and flare dispensers, satellite and data-burst communications, and the ability to receive fuel inflight via a Universal Aerial Refueling Receptacle Slipway Installation (UARRSI).
The HC-130J can fly in the day; however, crews normally fly night at low to medium altitude levels in contested or sensitive environments, both over land or overwater. Crews use NVGs for tactical flight profiles to avoid detection to accomplish covert infiltration/exfiltration and transload operations. To enhance the probability of mission success and survivability near populated areas, crews employ tactics that include incorporating no external lighting or communications, and avoiding radar and weapons detection.
Drop zone objectives are done via personnel drops and equipment drops. Rescue bundles include illumination flares, marker smokes and rescue kits. Helicopter air-to-air refueling can be conducted at night, with blacked out communication with up to two simultaneous helicopters. Additionally, forward area refueling point operations can be executed to support a variety of joint and coalition partners.
Background
The HC-130J is a result of the HC/MC-130 recapitalization program and replaces Air Combat Command's aging HC-130P/N fleet as the dedicated fixed-wing personnel recovery platform in the Air Force inventory. The 71st and 79th Rescue Squadrons in Air Combat Command, the 550th Special Operations Squadron in Air Education and Training Command, the 920th Rescue Group in Air Force Reserve Command and the 106th Rescue Wing, 129th RQW and 176th Wing in the Air National Guard will operate the aircraft.
First flight was 29 July 2010, and the aircraft will serve the many roles and missions of the HC-130P/Ns. It is a modified KC-130J aircraft designed to conduct personnel recovery missions, provide a command and control platform, in-flight-refuel helicopters and carry supplemental fuel for extending range or air refueling.
In April 2006, the personnel recovery mission was transferred back to Air Combat Command at Langley AFB, Va. From 2003 to 2006, the mission was under the Air Force Special Operations Command at Hurlburt Field, Fla. Previously, HC-130s were assigned to ACC from 1992 to 2003. They were first assigned to the Air Rescue Service as part of Military Airlift Command.
