The 60 foot long Stewart covered bridge is of Howe truss design and was built in 1930. It crosses Mosby Creek a tributary of the Row River.
The bridge has semicircular portal arches, ribbon openings at the eaves and decorative s-curve brackets. In 1964 flood waters cracked the lower chords. Then a few years later a heavy snowfall caved in the roof. In 1980, the Stewart Bridge was bypassed by a concrete bridge built immediately adjacent. In 1987 efforts to preserve the historic wooden bridge included fumigation, removing an approach and fencing off the remaining portal.
Steward Bridge remained closed until 1993, when the Oregon Covered Bridge Program helped fund its restoration. It was reopened for pedestrian access in 1996, but is now completely closed.
Unable to find any reference for the Stewart bridge name.
These couches are not far from where I live. On this street people toss stuff out where they please. So far, no one from the city of Glendale has come to pick them up. The upside down one looks a little smaller. I suppose it would cost a lot to fumigate both couches if one wanted to take them home to their places. But they have been out near the curb for almost two weeks.
If anything, they made an interesting photo-op.
Knappton Cove ...
Knappton Cove is located downstream of the town of Knappton and the "Knappton Site" marker, and upstream of Cliff Point. In 1876 the east side of the Cove became the home of the Knappton Cannery, and in 1899 it became the location of a U.S. Quarantine Station known as the "Ellis Island of the Columbia River". The Station - also known as the "Columbia River Quarantine Station" and "Knappton Cove Camp" - housed emigrants arriving by passenger ship who possibly carried disease.
Early Knappton ...
Knappton was founded in 1867 by Jabez B. Knapp, who called the community "Cementville" after discovering an outcrop of rock good for cement production. The venture failed however after two years as raw materials diminished. Knapp then formed the Columbia River Manufacturing Company and built a sawmill for lumber production.
In 1871 a Post Office was established and the town name was changed to "Knappton" to honor the founder. The Post Office was discontinued in 1943.
In 1876, Knapp's mill was sold to Captain Asa M. Simpson, who, in 1909, sold his interest to the Brix brothers Grays Bay Logging Company. The onset of the depression crippled the Knappton mill but a mill fire in 1936 closed it for good and destroyed most of the homes on the adjoining hillside as well.
In 1876 the Hume brothers, who brought salmon canning to the Columbia River in 1867, built a cannery just west of Knappton. Eventually known as the "Eureka and Epicure Packing Company", the cannery operated until 1897 when it was abandoned.
In 1899 the U.S. Government bought the old cannery site for use as a Quarantine Station. Between 1899 and 1938, hundreds of Chinese, Japanese, and European laborers went through the station. The station closed in 1938. The station's hospital building, built in 1912, is now a museum. In 1971 the wharf was damaged by a storm making it unsafe. It was demolished in 1975.
Between 1950 and 1956 the old quarantine station operated as a fishing resort for the Clarence and Katherine Bell family. They purchased the site at a U.S. government surplus property auction.
In 1980 the Knappton Quarantine Station was added to the National Register of Historical Places (#80004007). Since 1995 the hospital building has housed the Knappton Cove Heritage Center.
More Early Knappton ...
The 1888 U.S. Commission of Fish and Fisheries's "Chart of the Columbia River from the Ocean to Portland, Oregon, Illustrating the Condition of the Salmon Fishery, Season of 1888-9" had "Knappton Cannery" located on the upstream side of the point and further upstream the town of Knappton was labeled "Cementville".
At various times the area was also known as "Todd Bay" and "Centerville".
From the 1909 NOAA "Coast Survey":
"... Between Astoria and Portland there are numerous landings and settlements, dependent either on the fisheries or acting in some cases as shipping points for the country immediately behind them; these are ports of call for the regular river steamers. Deep-draft vessels do not as a rule stop between Astoria and Portland, except for lumber cargoes at Rainier, Goble, Westport, Knappton, and some small mills. ..."
From the 1942 NOAA "Coast Pilot":
"... There is a lumber wharf at Knappton 675 feet long, with a depth alongside of 33 feet at the lower end and 17 feet at the upper end. Vessels drawing up to 30 feet come to this dock. There is ferry service with Astoria. ..."

"KNAPPTON: Abandoned sawmill town overlooking the Columbia River, south of Naselle, on Highway 401. In 1868, Portland businessman Jabez Burrell Knapp, found suitable rocks for the manufacture of cement near the Columbia River home of Job Lamely. Knapp and partners purchased the waterfront site from Francis Hopkinson, a music teacher, and in 1868-69 built a large kiln and a barrel factory to package the cement. Knapp called his manufacturing settlement Cementville. The raw material for making cement proved limited however, and the venture failed after two years. Knapp next organized the Columbia River Manufacturing Company and went into the sawmill business. He continued to make cement and barrels but those works were scaled down. In 1870 Knapp quit his Portland business and moved permanently to the settlement he now called Knappton (contraction of Knapp Town). The name was confirmed when a post office was established April 13, 1871; it was discontinued November 15, 1943. In 1876, the mill was sold to Captain Asa M.

Knappton in 1941 ...
From "The New Washington: A Guide to the Evergreen State, Federal Writers' Project, 1941":
"... South of Naselle on State 12-B is KNAPPTON, (133 alt., 39 pop.), a cluster of ancient buildings around a ferry slip. The KNAPPTON-ASTORIA FERRY (car and driver, $1; passengers, 25c; 4 times daily) crosses the Columbia River to Oregon. ..."
The Grade I Listed Lyveden New Bield, (sometimes called New Build), an unfinished Elizabethan summer house, which is now owned by the National Trust. It is located close to the village of Aldwincle in Northamptonshire owned by the National Trust.
It was constructed for Sir Thomas Tresham, the fervent Roman Catholic of Rushton Hall, and is thought to have been designed by Robert Stickells. The New Bield was on the estate of Tresham's second home, Lyveden Manor House, also known as Lyveden Old Bield.
New Bield has a religious design full of symbolism. Designed on a plan reminiscent of a Greek cross, the facades have a strict symmetry. The building has two floors above a raised basement, with mullioned and transomed windows. Each floor had three rooms with a staircase in the south projection of the cross. The exterior of the building is decorated by friezes of a religious nature. The metopes contain the emblems and motifs found also at the triangular lodge, such as the "IHS" christogram.
The house had a great hall and parlour on the first floor, kitchen and buttery in the basement, and a bedroom on the upper floor. However, it was probably never intended for full-time occupation. Too close to the main house for use as a hunting lodge, it may have been intended for use as a "Secret House"—keeping a secret house was a custom of the 16th century. Often within a mile of the main house, the secret house was a place where the head of the household would retire for a few days with a minimum of servants, while the principal house was thoroughly cleaned and, bearing in mind the sanitation of the time, fumigated.
Sir Thomas Tresham died in 1605 following decades of religious persecution, his once vast wealth having been severely depleted. His son Francis Tresham inherited the estate, but within the same year, along with his cousins Catesby and Wintour, he became involved in the Gunpowder Plot. Thus, within a year the estate had a third owner, Francis's son Lewis Tresham. The estate was managed by Lewis's mother until her death in 1615. After this, Lewis Tresham, a spendthrift, lost the remaining family wealth. The estate was eventually sold following the death of his son in 1643.

At Goodwood, there is a retro Tesco store where you can enjoy a stroll down the supermarket aisles of the past and purchase some of the merchandise. I spotted a particular after shave and it took me back to my youth.
Brut aftershave was advertised by Henry Cooper, Barry Sheen and Kevin Keegan who were major sports stars of the 60's, 70's and 80’s. The slogan for the after shave was "Splash it all over”. It was quite ‘strong smelling’ and came in a green glass or plastic bottle and it had a very distinctive fragrance. Brut is produced by Faberge and still sold to this day.
Here's what people have to say about Brut from the UK and USA:
“This one is a great cologne and after shave to wear when you just want to smell nice without being too hung up on brand name recognition. It does the job well, and is no doubt a legendary scent worth checking out.”
“I don't hate this because it's cheap. No, on the contrary, I rather like Canoe and Acqua di Selva and That Man and Benetton Colors and other less expensive frags. But THIS stuff belongs in the garage, not in the house, as it's most handy when cleaning carburettors, stripping varnish, and fumigating.”
“Clean, masculine, with just enough attitude left in it… Brut!”
“I usually wear and enjoy it after a shower in the shiny cool winter evening, when sky is blue and and the sunlight has turned to orange, sitting in the open under the sky in solitude, sun is landing in the west and full winter moon is rising from the east, it gives a strange feeling of relaxation and calmness, no rush, no one around, this is the perfect environment for me to enjoy brut and other classics, I’m enjoying Classic fragrances in the same way for years.”
2013 has been a very busy year for me, overall I have taken 9888 photos this year, unfortunately I have not been able to upload all of them mainly due to me not be able to catalogue most of them due to me going out to get more photos (currently back dated to July at the moment) but overall I would like to wish everyone a very happy new year. Thank you for all your support you have show from you likes and comments and I leave 2013 with an image that most people would never see, a bus all wrapped up for fumigation, London United MCL6 (BD11LWT) parked down the ally at Hounslow Bus Garage back in August.

United Arab Airlines eventually became Egypt Air.
Only in service for 10 years and broken up 2 years later...
British Eagle bought 4 Viscounts from United Arab Airlines which had been sitting in storage at Cairo, Egypt. This one, SU-AKN became G-ATDR. They were full of particularly nasty creepy-crawlies and on one ferry flight from Cairo the F/O was bitten by a spider and they had to divert to Paris. On arrival at Liverpool they had to be fumigated (the aircraft, not the crew!).
This aircraft was delivered new to Misrair Egyptian Airlines in Jul-58 as SU-AKN. After an agreement between the Egyptian and Syrian Governments, Misrair and Syrian Arab Airlines were merged to form United Arab Airlines in Aug-60 (although Syria changed it's mind in 1961 and went it's own way).
After being stored at Cairo for a while it was sold to British Eagle International Airlines in May-65. It was stored at Liverpool in Nov-68 when British Eagle ceased operations. It was ferried to Blackbushe, UK, a year later in Nov-69 and broken up there by May-70.
It was constructed for Sir Thomas Tresham, the fervent Roman Catholic of Rushton Hall, and is thought to have been designed by Robert Stickells. The exact date is unknown but can be estimated to circa 1604–05, the year of Tresham's death. The New Bield was on the estate of Tresham's second home Lyvedon Old Bield.
Just as at Tresham's smaller folly Rushton Triangular Lodge, his principal estate, the New Bield has a religious design full of symbolism. Designed on a plan reminiscent of a Greek cross, the facades have a strict symmetry. The building has two floors above a raised basement, with mullioned and transomed windows. Each floor had three rooms with a staircase in the south projection of the cross. The exterior of the building is decorated by friezes of a religious nature. The metopes contain the emblems and motifs found also at the triangular lodge, such as the "IHS" christogram.
The house was obviously meant for occupation as not only does it have a great hall and parlour on the first floor and kitchen and buttery in the basement, but also a bedroom on the upper floor. The building was probably never intended for full time occupation. Too close to the main house for use as a hunting lodge, it may have been intended for use as a "Secret House"—keeping a secret house was a custom of the 16th century. Often within a mile of the main house, the secret house was a place where the head of the household would retire for a few days with a minimum of servants, while the principal house was thoroughly cleaned, and bearing in mind the sanitation of the time, fumigated. Similar examples of "secret houses" exist at Leconfield and Warkworth where their use for this purpose has been well documented.
Lyveden Old Bield, the once grand principal house of the estate, had belonged to the Tresham family from c.1450. Today, little remains and what does was probably built by Thomas Tresham's grandson Lewis. The gatehouse has been removed to Fermyn Woods Hall, and the staircase has been transported to America. One wing remains with mullioned windows.
Sir Thomas Tresham died in 1605 following decades of religious persecution, his once vast wealth having been severely depleted. His son Francis Tresham inherited the estate, but within the same year, along with his cousins Catesby and Wintour, became involved in the Gunpowder Plot. Thus, within a year the estate had a third owner, Francis's son Lewis Tresham. The estate was managed by Lewis's mother until her death in 1615.
After this Lewis Tresham, a spendthrift, lost the remaining family wealth. The estate was eventually sold following the death of his son in 1643.
Lyveden New Bield was never completed nor used. It remains exactly as it was when the builders left following Sir Thomas Tresham's death. Evidence of the planned terraces and water garden remain.

Rudolf Hoess commandant at Auschwitz describes the process in his memoir thus: "They are placed in the chambers, the doors are screwed tight and my "fumigation team" empties the canister into a caged shoot that extends all the way to the floor, those standing nearest drop dead instantly, the others depending on size of load and how close they are to the shoot may take up to fifteen minutes to die, those furthest stagger around wailing and screaming as they gasp for air. Finally the screams turn into a "death rattle" and then silence. We wait fifteen more minutes before we let the clean up crew "mop up".

Wer ist die Schönste im ganzen Land?
Here is a divination tool: the water mirror. It makes it possible to see, through our third eye, images of the future, but also, even if this use is less popular, past or future lives, entities... and many other things that you will discover during your practice if you try the experiment. To limit the mirror of water to a mere divinatory tool would be to amputate it from much of its use and mystery. However, as with any esoteric practice, you must feel ready to use it, it is not a question of going blindly, as this experience can be shocking for some people depending on how the session unfolds. You don't need a particular water level, no, you just have to feel ready and approach this tool and this experience with a lot of respect.
The Aztec god of night, Tzcatlipoca, is even supposed to have carried a magic mirror that enveloped his enemies in clouds of smoke. ... The first recorded case of mirror divination (known as catoptromancy) can be traced back to ancient China, India, Persia and Roma, where small metal mirrors were used to predict the life expectancy of the sick.CATOPTROMANCY. AND. THE. MAGIC. MIRROR. Cataptromancy is a form of divination using reflective surfaces, such as a mirror, water or some other suitable surface. Both the Magic Mirror and the Mandala may be used individually, by themselves as separate tools for externalising the consciousness.
Practice: To begin with, you need to find a water mirror, or if you don't have one, a normal mirror that you will use in the half-light, lit by one or two candles if you wish, or nothing at all if you see enough, it's up to you to judge when the time comes. Anyway, you will only have to use this mirror ONLY for this practice, it is extremely important (whether you dedicate it or not). And when you don't use it I advise you to cover it with a cloth, because once it has been used it becomes a kind of door, a link, and you will see, you will feel its power, the energy that will come out of it. Sit in front of your mirror, comfortably, and meditate for a few minutes on what you are going to do, your goal... When you feel ready, fix your third eye, or your eyes, through the mirror. After a while your eyes will sting you, which is normal, over time this sensation will fade. You can burn incense and arrange some crystals to help you during this exercise. Of course the crystals will vary according to your purpose and your affinities with them. Then the first phase will slowly set in place, you will see your orbits become black and your face unravel to become a skull before disappearing. This step can be frightening if you're not ready enough and I think it may be partly done to push some back, but not just that of course. When your skull disappears from the mirror everything can begin, take your time and observe! You have been able to read various experiments on the Internet, some of them do not fix their reflection, and therefore do not go through the "skull"stage. It's up to you to see what appeals to you the most, and therefore, what's best for you. As with all esoteric practices, there are always several ways to achieve the same result:) This is Catoptromancy (Gk. κάτοπτρον, katoptron, "mirror," and μαντεία, manteia, "divination"), also known as captromancy or enoptromancy, is divination using a mirror.Catoptromancy is a word you do not hear very often. Its meaning, however, is something which just about everyone knows about. Catoptromancy is a word derived from Greek which basically means “Mirrors in Divination”. The Evil Queen in Snow White asking for information by saying “Mirror, mirror on the wall” and old folk games of looking into a mirror to see the image of a future spouse are two example of catoptromancy. Another example – albeit a rather indirect one –is the mirror in Alfred Lord Tennyson’s The Lady of Shalott: this mirror is not magical from the standpoint that it, like any other mirror, simply reflects what is happening. However, the mirror crack’d from side to side the moment the Lady of Shalott fell under the curse, thus foretelling her imminent death. Therefore, this can be considered an example of catoptromancy or the use of a magical mirror.
An ancient Mesoamerican artifact is seen along its own reflection in an ancient Mesoamerican mirror with a carved wooden frame. While authorities on the subject of ancient Mesoamerican culture don't yet acknowledge these things, they are in no way restrained, ironically, from offering every praise short of it. Regarding the mirrors in general, Valliant, in "The Aztecs of Mexico, writes (pg. 116): "The making of the mirrors called much ingenuity into play... Blocks of obsidian were sometimes polished to produce an eerie and mysterious reflection. However, iron pyrites, burnished and shaped, were more common; and rarer examples had thin pyrite flakes laid in a mosaic and glued to a background of wood or shell. In another technique used on the coast the artisan detached a surface of pyrites in its matrix of slate, burnishing one side and carving the other to fashion a mirror with a carved back. One example, at least, is known of a mirror with marcasite with its surface ground as to produce a magnified reflection". Such praise reveals at the very least mundane sophistication like that which is also freely given regarding the optics marvels of the ancient orient. Similarly, Michael D. Coe, in "Mexico", writes: Certain Olmec sculptures and figurines show persons wearing pectorals of concave shape around the neck, and such have actually come to light in offerings, These oddly enough turned out to be concave mirrors of magnetite and ilmenite, the reflecting surfaces polished to optical specifications. What were they used for? Experiments have shown that they can not only start fires, but also throw images on flat surfaces like a camera lucida. They were pierced for suspension, and one can imagine the hocus-pocus which some mighty Olmec preist was able to perform with one of these. Imagine, indeed. Whether or not the priest could have impressed anyone, however, when the underlying principles are captured by every artist and given away to every citizen with nearly every gesture of the cultures in question, every artwork or every holiday, is another story altogether. Still, these fabulous optical properties, while certainly making solid testimony that these ancient people had a remarkably advanced grasp of sophisticated optics, may only be ideographic markers- outward superficial properties acting as labels for the even more incredible powers that these devices were made to possess. Tezcatlipoca, an Aztec deity whose name literally means, "Smoking Mirror", may be a fictitious contrivance used to label literature that allegorically describes the making, use, and principles of these mirrors. While the phrase "smoking mirrors" has even found its way into modern politics, no one seems to have a substantial clue to its origin. In the case of Tezcatlipoca, the "smoke" may have been a smudge or incense used to activate the mirrors; Mexican mugwort or a closely related specie is very probable.
This may yet prove to be another viable alternative to Trans-Atlantic and Trans-Pacific crossing to explaining the extreme degree of cultural parallels between peoples normally spoken of as isolated from one another; with the aid of such devices, they may have in fact been in constant communication. Here's another twist or two: ancient Egyptian mirrors often contain the same familiar birds as magick mirrors of Greece and elsewhere (left), but sometimes they don't (right), which remarkably either evokes the crescent as a magnetic symbols, or reduces the symbol of artificial intelligence to the universal feature of a face of a body of a human, rather suggestive of the artificial intelligence labeling of Crystal Skulls and Skull Oracles.The symbols are simple, but the rules do tend to vary somewhat.
This picture above in Alsace remain, "Sobek, god of a city called Crocodilopolis" (Lionel Casson, "Ancient Egypt", pg. 73), has strong elements of both magick mirrors and oracular skulls and points in the direction of the Egyptian and Vedic "mystical" Solar science .It also shows another variation on the frog symbol that remains within the reptilian.;The peculiar details of the window to other worlds may also encode details about the harmonic physics used in its creation or operation, like the designs on the Celtic magick mirrors, above. The harmonic science of magick mirrors and time cameras (the counter magnetic amplifier, shown below, could easily classify as a harmonic device, perhaps a magnetic harmonic resonator) brings us to an interesting place in the burgeoning science of hyperdimensional physics because we have all the pieces of how the ancients would have utilized the harmonic energy grid of the earth, but we may not yet be able to account for the absence of hundreds of pages of equations governing every detail and alignment of the ancient landmarks that appear on the predicted nodal points of world grid maps. The harmonic markings and symbols on many magick mirror devices may be telling us that these devices not only run on the same principles that are relevant to this planetary grid science, but implying they had a purpose as tools to abbreviate hard work of calculating such incredible aspects. One other trend or common denominator in various literature on the subject resembles what may be equivalent applications of Howard Wachpress' Unpaired Magnetic Pole Levitation design, comprised of odd/even poles made when irregular carvings or geometries are magnetized (The actual example on the cover of Tyson's book is one example, although he does not seem to be aware that this principle may be at work; other examples might be found in Lewis Spence's "Encyclopedia of Occultism"; the subject is also treated in De Givry's book). This design for a magnetic ship by Hughes can be found in George Frederick Kunz, "Curious Lore of Precious Stones", pg. 53. It originates from Valentini, "Museum Museorum," pt. III, Franckfurt am Mayn, 1714, pg. 35. Kunz's caption tells us that coral-agates were to be set in the network above the pilot, which was "supposed to possess such magnetic powers as to keep the craft aloft". Magnetic levitation designs have beeen, and remain contemporary with magnetic magic mirrors. The cover of Tyson's remarkable book. Whether or not the author is consciously aware of it, the mirror which is shown and which the book contains instructions for making, is one of a class of a great many of at least the last five centuries, whose number of engravings or the number of characters in cardinal points recalls the odd-even magnetic polar pairing of Howard Wachpress' magnetic levitation design. While the exact mechanism may be difficult to ascertain, mostly because the possibilities are particular numerous and some are inevitably complex, the connection in both form and function is immediately obvious. There may be little difference in many applications between the unpaired magnetic pole levitation system and the counter magnetic amplifier of Active Reseach and Development's time camera, or between the methods that Ernetti uses. Here, astrological glyphs are set against sides of the mirror frame. It is likewise a trend to use Mugwort (Artemisia vulgaris) with crystal balls and magic mirrors; Mugwort is also known as "Compass Plant" or here on the picture like a "Compass Boat" because it is one of those plants which aligns its leaves along a north/south magnetic axis as if it were magnetized. It may also affect human endocrine systems which interact with magnetism and or gravity. At left is Howard Wachpress' invention depicted in it's patent diagram. At right below, the counter magnetic amplifier in the Time Cameras offered by Active Research and Development. Note that the latter, intriguingly, is said to rely on Hieronymous' "Eloptics", and energy he named that has both the properties of ELectricity and OPTIC energy, or light.
Descriptions of superconducted electricity accelerating to light-like velocities certainly comes to mind; the device might also rely on various principles of symmetry as well as its magnetic attributes. The actual tuning system of one of ARD's more advanced models relies on skin electricity translating thought patterns for its tuning mode. Rather than being preposterous, this may be both a logical extension of the latest in physics and biology when the two fields are effectively joined, and such technology could become part of an amazing genera of devices. Whatever the individual believes about the artifacts gathered from the "Roswell Crash", the footage shows technology that may be astonishingly similar. This principle of translation may be intrinsic to how a great deal of true magick that involves mental processes is accomplished. Also helping to render plausibility is the fact that certain superconducting magnetic devices, known as SQUIDs, are said to amongst, if not the only, devices thus known capable of imaging energies that come from the hands of physic healers who perform "laying on of hands". If such technologies can interact with such forces, they can perhaps also modulate or even simulate them. Such technology, besides having tremendous potential in medical diagnostics, also has potentials in even more futuristic medicine and biology. Time cameras may be employed to retrieve biological pattern data for varied applications from identifying and reconstituting lost and even unknown species, to providing data about structure prior to disease states for reconstruction of biological systems. Such far-flung notions are precisely what some of the markings on the ancient Mesoamerican mirrors directly imply. Not at all surprisingly, T.G. Hieronymous' scientific achievements not only include his eloptics technology and patents, but his amazing Cosmiculture" wherein he succeeded in growing plants without sunlight, but rather with some mysterious force carried by electrical conductors from a solar plate. Robert Pavlita's amazing "Psychotronic" motor or generator (left), featured in Ostrander and Schroeder's classic, "Handbook of Psychic Discoveries" (Photo 28), created with a five part structure which may pit against two energetic poles, may turn out to be largely motivated by the same effect of unpaired poles as Howard Wachpress' levitator. Its structure perhaps not coincidentally recalls the features of hyperdimensional signatures on planetary magnetic poles in the solar system (see above).
At right, the well-known levitating stone raised by 11 people chanting "Qamar Ali Dervish", noted in Andrew Tomas' "We Are Not the First" and by many others, including KeelyNet files, may inevitably be primarily accomplished the same way, through the Wachpressian technology that may simply be another spin on the familiar theme of unipolar or homopolar dynamos, since the singular pole, real or contrived, most likely also serves as an "odd pole out". The Vimaanika-Shastra, an ancient Sanskrit text which describes in detail the making and operation of flying machine or "flying saucers", details the construction and use of a number of mirrors with unusual properties. While any of the many formulas in this vast collection whose ingredients can be successfully translated and identified could be thusly explained, or by following the instructions and analyzing the results, any eventual similarity between the workings of these mirrors and other ancient magick mirrors could help serve as a bridge toward linking the peculiar and complex science of this ancient Vedic text to the appropriate modern, if unusual, concepts and terminology.
From the Vimaanika-Shastra, found in 1908 in the Royal Baroda Library, translated by G. R. Joyser, and found in its entirety in "Vimana Aircraft of Ancient India and Atlantis" by David Hatcher Childress: "Darpanaadhikaranam: Mirrors and Lenses Mahrishi Bharadwaaja: "Darpanaashcha" Sootra 1
"Lenses": Bodhaananda Vritti: This chapter deals with the mirrors and lenses which are required to be installed in the vimaana. There are seven different ones. Their names are given by Lalla in "Mukura-kalpa" as Vishwakriyaa darpanana, or television mirror, Shaktyaakarshana darpana or power-capturing-mirror, Vyroopya darpana or appearance changing mirror, Kuntinee darpana, Pinjulaa darpana, Guhaagarbha darpana, and Rowdree darpana or terrifying darpana. Vishwakriyaa darpana is to be fixed on a revolving stand near the pilot so that he cold observe whatever is happening outside on all sides. Its manufacture is thus described in Kriyaasaara: Two parts of stava, 2 parts of shundilaka, one part of eagle bone, 5 parts of mercury, 2 parts of the foot-nails of the sinchoranee, 6 parts of mica, 5 parts of red lead, 8 parts of pearl dust, 18 parts of the eyeballs of sowmyaka fish, one part burning coal, 8 parts of snake’s slough, 3 parts of eye pigment, 6 parts of maatrunna, 10 parts of granite sand, 8 parts of salt, 4 of lead, 2 parts of sea foam, 3 parts white throated eagle’s skin, 7 parts of bamboo salt, 5 parts of vyraajya or white keg tree bark, these ingreedients should be purified, and weighed, and filled in a beaked crucible and placed in the furnace called chandodara and subjected to a 800 degree heat, and when duly liquified, should be poured into the funnel of the kara-darpana yantra or hand-mirror mold. The result will be an excellent mirror in which will be reproduced minature details of the world outside." Those familiar with ancient formulas, however peculiar their ingredients, know far better than to dismiss them. Information in "The Curious Lore of Precious Stones" by George Frederick Kunz gives more instances of applying minerals containing iron being applied to such magickal contrivances. (interestingly, this book makes detailed mention of a design for a flying craft by a Brazilian priest in the 1700's that may be also very much in essence like Wachpress's design mentioned above!). (Magic Screens of Ancient Asia are also mentioned in some of the above texts, a possibly closely related principle, where screens were made that show images inside the human body, probably equal to or greater than out own modern medical imaging.) What doesn't tie in to this topic? This photo, also appearing on Richard Hoagland's "Enterprise Mission" site on his pages on Hyperdimesional Physics , of one of Saturn's magnetic poles shows the hexagonal polar region that has been found on planets throughout the solar system, including Uranus and Mars, and most recently, the sun itself. Note that there's not only a hexagon (6 sides) but a 5-armed "star" shape, our familiar unpaired numerical matching, occurring on the magnetic poles of celestial bodies. (It certainly thereby makes some implications about the nature and purposes of pentagrams as well; they could scarcely be Satan's playthings and yet God's own signature as creator!)
Just as Hoagland implies how hyperdimensional physics was encoded by ancient peoples on earth and possibly elsewhere, the method of sending information through hyperspace may already be at work in magick mirrors, possibly due to angular momentum effects of the magnetic fields rotating due to unpaired pole effects. The theory behind magick mirrors may not just be a communications utility, it may shed light on celestial mechanics, and the same technology may provide sane amounts of free energy for human use. And that may only be the beginning... As to the traditions of Ancient Wisdom... amongst the other enlightenment that can be found amongst them, as meaning layers over meaning, upheld and facilitated by the science of Correspondences, we might find significant details of these devices and rites labeled with allusions that fall under the motif of reflection: Echo and Narcissus, Perseus and Medusa... just as we may find them under the theme of closeness to the waterside, since it is part of Pausanius' account of Catoptromancy: Romulus and Remus, Temperance in the Tarot, The Star in the Tarot, Echo and Narcissus once again, etc., etc.... Someday, even if the phone company has shut you off, you may be able to summon help in an emergency, "As the crow flies", and never be obstructed from communion with those whom you love... but the technology also promises to be of inestimable value in medicine and healing as well.
Catoptromancy should not be confused with crystal gazing, although both divinatory methods fall under the category of “scrying” – looking into water, a mirror, a crystal or any other transparent object in order to see the future or contact a supernatural entity.Pausanias, an ancient Greek traveler, described as follows: Before the Temple of Ceres at Patras, there was a fountain, separated from the temple by a wall, and there was an oracle, very truthful, not for all events, but for the sick only. The sick person let down a mirror, suspended by a thread till its base touched the surface of the water, having first prayed to the goddess and offered incense. Then looking in the mirror, he saw the presage of death or recovery, according as the face appeared fresh and healthy, or of a ghastly aspect.This method of divination has been frequently used in various forms since ancient times on mirrors made of polished metal: copper, bronze, iron, silver or gold. There are traces of it in Chaldea and Mesopotamia. Of course, the surface of water or any other reflective surface was also suitable2. The Sagas of Thessaly traced on mirrors their sibylline formulas with blood: immediately the moon - another mirror - reflected these bloody characters, then the answer was imprinted on its silver crescent. This is how the oracle was rendered "3. In his Description of Greece (around 174) Pausanias le Périégète writes in his Description of Greece:
In front of this temple there is a fountain which on the side of the temple itself is closed by a wall of dry stones; outside there is a path that goes down. It is claimed that this fountain makes oracles that never deceive; it is consulted not on all kinds of affairs, but only on the state of the sick. A mirror is attached to the end of a string and held suspended above the fountain so that only the end touches the water. Then prayers are made to the Goddess, perfumes are burned in her honour, and as soon as we look in the mirror we see if the sick person will return to health or die; this kind of divination does not extend further. ».The Roman Emperor Didius Julianus (193) had similar practices as Spartianus relates: Julianus even resorted to this kind of divination, which is done with the help of a mirror, in which, it is said, children see the future, after their eyes and heads have been subjected to certain enchantments. It is claimed that, in this circumstance, the child lives in the mirror when Severus arrives and Julianus leaves.
The Renaissance also had its share of divinations by mirrors, the doctor Jean Fernel 1497-1558 relates: The gestures of these figures were so expressive that each of the assistants, who saw like him in the mirror, could well understand their mimicry. One evening in 1559, Cosme Ruggieri, the magician of Catherine de Médicis, used it at the Château de Chaumont-sur-Loire to predict to the Queen Mother Queen the duration of the reign of her sons, who had to make as many turns on themselves as they had spent years on the throne. Francis II made a tour, Charles IX fourteen, Henry III fifteen and the Prince of Navarre (the future Henry IV) twenty-one8. In November 1582 John Dee, the Magician of Elizabeth I of England, saw the Uriel Angel appear at his window one evening. He gave her a polished black stone which, when fixed with insistence, showed up beings capable of telling the future. This strange dark mirror is currently on display in the British Museum. Catoptromancy is quite common in the folk magic of nearly every country. For centuries, mirrors were considered powerful tools: if they could capture physical images of the world, perhaps they could also capture the supernatural. To this day, it is not uncommon in many Eastern European countries for surviving family members to cover the mirrors or turn them to face the wall after a person in the household has died, for fear the recently released soul may become caught inside the mirror. Mirrors have often been used as a tool in folk magic. One of the most common applications of catoptromancy is the old ritual, which every culture seems to have a variation of, that involves a young woman looking into a mirror in the hopes that the face of her future husband will be revealed. Sometimes, this game would be taken quite seriously and there would be other rules regarding the age of the girl and what she may or may not have been wearing, as well as what day of the year was the best for performing the ritual.
Many young women may have been scared away from playing this game by the possibility that she may in fact see an image of the Golden House in the mirror. This would mean that manor would be full kindness to accept holistic's students. Frederick II was the first Germanic and Italian Emperor, he had brought the divinatory sciences back to Alsace and his Sicilian doctors who of course spoke Arabic. The Egyptians' divination and secrets were part of the Moorish culture, they had assimilated the Persian culture with Zarathustra as well as the Greek culture with Plato, or the Egyptians with Hermes-Thot. The golden manor is reflected in this boat asleep in the waves of a regenerating winter, it reminds us of the memory of the last Germanic Emperor William II and his golden eagle floating between two waters in the gable which traces its extended wings, we are ready for a flight to the hidden dimension of a reversible World. Wer ist die Schönste im ganzen Land?
Nearer to us, J. T Reinaud (1795-1867), Orientalist commenting at the beginning of the 19th century on the museum of the Duke of Blacas, writes: The Orientals also have magical mirrors in which they imagine themselves to be able to reveal the angels, the archangels; by perfuming the mirror, by fasting for seven days and keeping the most severe retreat, one becomes able to see, either with one's own eyes or those of a virgin or a child, the angels that one desires to evoke.
Today, catoptromancery is still widely used in sub-Saharan Africa.Interpretations[edit | modify code] One can give two kinds of interpretations to visions obtained in mirrors. First of all, these visions are of dreamlike, hypnotic or hallucinatory nature, provoked by the atmosphere and rituals frequently involving semi-darkness, a long period of concentration sometimes preceded by fasting and the use of fumigations that can be hallucinogenic (see above). As psychologist Pierre Janet writes: People who have seen in these mirrors will certainly say,"I knew nothing of all this. Well, I have to tell you that your statement is inaccurate. You knew very well what you saw appearing. They are memories acquired, at fixed dates, recorded knowledge, daydreams and reasoning already done. » From the Renaissance onwards, the use of techniques to obtain all sorts of illusions using semitransparent or judiciously arranged mirrors was added to this, and Jean-Baptiste Porta, like this one, described in great detail at that time: How can we make a mirror out of several full mirrors, to which, at the same time, several effigies will appear "12, techniques still used today by illusionists.
Vision of her future husband on Halloween night. According to Anglo-Saxon tradition, a young girl presenting herself in front of a mirror with a candle lit by hand during Halloween night would see the face of her future husband pass by... or a skull if she had to die before her marriage! A legend has it that by performing a certain ritual in front of a mirror on the night of Epiphany we could see ourselves as we were at the time of his death. There is also the urban legend of Bloody-Mary, which has many variations. If you place yourself in front of a mirror in a dark room (a bathroom for example), lit only by a candle, and you pronounce thirteen times in a row the name "Bloody Mary" it appears the bloody face of a woman who attacks you...With the exception of the Magic Mirror in Snow White, the best example of catoptromancy is the old Halloween party game “Bloody Mary”. The tradition developed out of the old fashioned attempt to see the face of your future spouse. The idea of calling on “Bloody Mary” started during the Elizabethan Era: A young, Protestant woman, hopeful for a good life with a future husband and lots of children, would look into the mirror and taunt the ghost of the Catholic queen Bloody Mary, a woman who had been physically unable to produce an heir. As the years went by, the religious tensions which created the Bloody Mary game were forgotten. Eventually, the game was somehow combined with the urban legend of Bloody Mary, a horrifying and perhaps vengeful specter (again, with variations from different eras and cultures). After this happened, the idea of it being a ritual for the discovery your future spouse was jettisoned as well. Anytime Bloody Mary is called on now, it is just a simple dare or Halloween prank, usually played by young children, in order to cause a good scare.
A type of divination with a mirror which the second century AD Greek traveler Pausanius described as follows: "Before the Temple of Ceres at Patras, there was a fountain, separated from the temple by a wall, and there was an oracle, very truthful, not for all events, but for the sick only. The sick person let down a mirror, suspended by a thread till its based touched the surface of the water, having first prayed to the goddess and offered incense. Then looking in the mirror, he saw the presage of death or recovery, according as the face appeared fresh and healthy, or of a ghastly aspect." Another divinatory method of using a mirror was to place it at the back of a boy's or girl's head when their eyes were bandaged shut. In Thessaly the responses appeared in characters of blood on the face of the moon, probably projected in the mirror. This practiced was derived by the Thessalian sorceresses from the Persians who wanted to establish their religion and mystical rituals in the countries which they invaded. A.G.H.
Catoptromancy is the technique used by Snow White's evil mother-in-law in Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm's famous tale:"Little mirror, little mirror on the wall, which is the most beautiful of the whole country? ». In Lewis Carol's tale, Alice in Wonderland passes through the fantastic universe on the other side of the mirror.Grimms’ Schneewittchen or Snow White is one of the oldest and most famous stories in the world. Catoptromancy is a very important part of this tale – in fact, one could easily say that the entire story centers around catptromancy. The action all starts when the Evil Queen asks “Mirror, mirror on the wall, who is the fairest of them all?”
The Mirror or the Queen’s use of catoptromancy in the story is what causes her to want to kill Snow White. And, in turn, it is what leads the heroine into home of the Seven Dwarfs. The Mirror carries the story further by refusing to answer the Queen’s question – “Who is the fairest of them all?” – in a way she would like. Through the Mirror, the Queen knows that her first two attempts to murder Snow White have failed, and she eventually uses the seemingly effective poisoned apple to rid herself of her rival.Spieglein, Spieglein an der Wand,- The Evil Queen’s invocation of the mirror in the Grimms’ original German. A magical mirror, in some form, has played a part in probably every adaptation of Snow White that has ever been made. This is not only because of the importance of catoptromancy in folklore, but also because this story expounds on the difference between vanity and beauty.
*Zyklon B" transl, from German: Cyclone, "B" stands for "Blausauere" transl.: blue acid.
Degesh stands for: "Deutsche Gesellschaft fur die Schadlingsbekampfung" transl.: German Association for the combating of Parasites. The above is from a "Zyclon B" canister that was cut, hammered flat, stenciled and hand painted.
"Zyclon B" was manufactured under license by I.G.Farben and was sold in large quantities to the various concentration camps for the sole purpose of exterminating Jews and "other" undesirable people.
Rudolf Hoess commandant at Auschwitz describes the process in his memoir thus: "They are placed in the chambers, the doors are screwed tight and my "fumigation team" empties the canister into a caged shoot that extends all the way to the floor, those standing nearest drop dead instantly, the others depending on size of load and how close they are to the shoot may take up to fifteen minutes to die, those furthest stagger around wailing and screaming as they gasp for air. Finally the screams turn into a "death rattle" and then silence. We wait fifteen more minutes before we let the clean up crew "mop up". In the meantime my "salvage" teams search body crevices for hidden valuables and remove gold fillings, The "barbers" remove the woman's hair: nothing goes to waist in my camps"
P.S. prior to the Nazi's use of Zyklon for extermination, it was used for fumigation but with a "stabilizer" It is still produced to-day in Kolin in the Czech republic.
The house was obviously meant for occupation, as it has a great hall and parlour on the first floor, kitchen and buttery in the basement, and a bedroom on the upper floor. However, it was probably never intended for full-time occupation. Too close to the main house for use as a hunting lodge, it may have been intended for use as a "Secret House"—keeping a secret house was a custom of the 16th century. Often within a mile of the main house, the secret house was a place where the head of the household would retire for a few days with a minimum of servants, while the principal house was thoroughly cleaned and, bearing in mind the sanitation of the time, fumigated
Lyveden New Bield was never completed. It remains as it was when the builders left following Sir Thomas Tresham's death. Today, it is in the care of the National Trust.

In the beginning of Shaman festival Tibetan people made offering to the locals gods. They climbed to the mountain above the village, performed ritual dances and lighted sang (natural incense made from juniper), throwing lungta (“wind horse”, colorful papers, which represent good luck and life force) to the air, loudly chanting mantras and prayers.
Shamans, or “Lhawa” in Tibetan, are average individuals whose bodies are inhabited by a god at specified times of year. Through the medium of the shaman, the god then advises local people on how to maintain safety and good fortune. Special shaman's festivals are held at which villagers gather to hear the advice of the shaman.

In the grounds of the Grade I Listed Lyveden New Bield, (sometimes called New Build), an unfinished Elizabethan summer house, which is now owned by the National Trust. It is located close to the village of Aldwincle in Northamptonshire owned by the National Trust.
It was constructed for Sir Thomas Tresham, the fervent Roman Catholic of Rushton Hall, and is thought to have been designed by Robert Stickells. The New Bield was on the estate of Tresham's second home, Lyveden Manor House, also known as Lyveden Old Bield.
New Bield has a religious design full of symbolism. Designed on a plan reminiscent of a Greek cross, the facades have a strict symmetry. The building has two floors above a raised basement, with mullioned and transomed windows. Each floor had three rooms with a staircase in the south projection of the cross. The exterior of the building is decorated by friezes of a religious nature. The metopes contain the emblems and motifs found also at the triangular lodge, such as the "IHS" christogram.
The house had a great hall and parlour on the first floor, kitchen and buttery in the basement, and a bedroom on the upper floor. However, it was probably never intended for full-time occupation.

Sir Thomas Tresham died in 1605 following decades of religious persecution, his once vast wealth having been severely depleted. His son Francis Tresham inherited the estate, but within the same year, along with his cousins Catesby and Wintour, he became involved in the Gunpowder Plot. Thus, within a year the estate had a third owner, Francis's son Lewis Tresham. The estate was managed by Lewis's mother until her death in 1615. After this, Lewis Tresham, a spendthrift, lost the remaining family wealth. The estate was eventually sold following the death of his son in 1643.

Having a cup of coffee with a healthy side of sarcasm and reality was Boolster’s Brew’s longtime server Gracie Summerall. Craig was surprised to find that she was still home rather than taking the commuter to the coffeeshop in Room 1.
Instead, he found her reading an article on their laptop.
“Did you decide to take the morning off?” Craig asked.
“No,” Gracie said. “I had no choice. Mr. Booley had to shut Boolster’s down for the day for yet another ant fumigation.” Gracie took a sip of coffee and sighed.
“Do you realize that I’ve worked at that coffee shop for more than 10 years?”
“Has it been that long?”
“Too long, Craig. When I first started, it was the young, hip place to be that – get this -- served coffee. Now? Who knows. Between Mr. Booley’s personal and financial woes and his contentment to appease the ‘buddy breakfast’ crowd, it’s completely lost its identity. No one younger than us ever walks in, and it’s questionable that a place proudly serving a ‘skillet slammer’ can even call itself a coffeeshop anymore.”
“But I’m okay with that. I mean, I enjoy it there.”
Gracie rolled her eyes and looked at Craig.
“That’s exactly what I’m saying, Craig. The young people need a place to hang out, and I think I can deliver it.”
“Oh boy,” Craig responded, worried.
Continuo con nuestra ruta dentro del pueblo de Regla, en total eramos unos 12 fotografos y una niña (mi hija Claudia), los pobladores nos miraban extrañados, tratando de encontrar una razón para que estas personas ataviadas de cámaras asaltaran sus calles.
Nos encontramos con un poblado multiplicado en presencia, niños jugando en la calles, personas sentadas en los contenes, los fumigadores llenando de humo los interiores de las casas para batallar contra los mosquitos.
Nos mostramos respetuosos, algunos preguntando antes de disparar, tratando de no romper con la privacidad, en busca de capturar un momento diferente en medio de una parte de La Habana que nos es ajena, diferente, alejada.
Algunos de mis compañeros de viaje se mostraron extrañados de no encontrar lo que buscaban, otros no dejaban de mirar, escudriñar los rincones, apropiandose de la luz y multiplicando sus sombras por doquier.
Continuing our route into the town of Regla, in total we were about 12 photographers and a girl (my daughter Claudia), people looked at us puzzled, trying to find a reason these people wearing cameras stormed their streets.
We found a town multiplied in the presence, children playing in the streets, people sitting on curbs, fumigators smoke filling the interiors of the houses to battle against mosquitoes.
We show respect, some asking before shooting, trying not to break the privacy, seeking to capture a different time in the middle of part of Havana that is alien to us, different, away.
Some of my fellow travelers were surprised not to find what they wanted, others kept looking, searching the corners, appropriating light and shadows multiplying everywhere.

Another shot from the treatment room within the Quarantine Room in Point Nepean National Park. Passengers goods were fumigated here as they embarked off the passenger ships.
The larger circular apparatus is thought to be the disinfecting oven manufactured by the French Sanitation engineering company, Geneste-Herscher that was installed at the station in mid 1890 and probably moved here in 1900.
There were 2 methods of disinfection;
1. The Formaldehyde Gas Method (for passenger's luggage and clothing). A 20" vacuum was achieved in around 20 minutes. It took 5 minutes for Formaldehyde to fill the chamber and a further 35 minutes to process the articles and clear the gas.
2. The Steam Saturation Method (for bedding). The chamber was sealed and vacuum achieved. The 15lb steam pressure was then raised. Treatment and subsequent cooling of the articles took a further 50 minutes. The articles would come out completely dry.
Torrens Island Quarantine Station.
This small mangrove and sand island in the mouth of the Port River was established as a quarantine temporary camp by 1855 by the South Australian government. It was away from the colonial settlement but still very close to Port Adelaide. It provide medical facilities and supervision for people arriving at the port with infectious and possibly infectious diseases especially smallpox and diseases like Scarlet Fever. Although the quarantine station was operational by 1855 most of the first government buildings were erected in the 1877 to 1878 period. After Federation the 551 acre quarantine station land was handed over to the Commonwealth government. At that time apart from the hospital, morgue and administration buildings it had accommodation for 224 people including cottages for staff and workers. The Commonwealth government built a new two storey administration building in 1916 now known as Refshauge House. In 1914 at the start of World War One it was used as an internment camp for alien and internee suspects. This internment camp only operated for less than one year from October 1914 to August 1915. Then in 1918 Torrens Island had a major issue to deal with when the troop ship Boonah arrived from South Africa with 300 deadly Spanish influenza cases aboard. Most of the seriously ill, some of whom died, were taken off at Fremantle but a further 13 cases emerged on the voyage between Albany and Port Adelaide. The Boonah with 437 men and officers anchored at the Semaphore anchorage on 28th December. The thirteen infected soldiers were quarantined in the hospital on Torrens Island and four more were added to this group a couple of days later. But most vessels arrived with passengers infected with smallpox. When the World Health Organisation declared the world free of smallpox in 1979 the Torrens Island Quarantine Station was closed as a human quarantine station but still provides quarantine for animals and plants being imported to Australia. There is a small cemetery within the complex but with only ten recorded burials between 1887 and 1932. The cemetery was consecrated in 1896 when there were already four burials in it dating from 1892. One was Frederick Smith who died of smallpox in 1895 and another was the Reverend Alexander Still in 1892. Torrens Island had its own school from 1928 to 1935. Two power stations also exist on Torrens Island outside the old quarantine area.
i am suffocating since the paranoia of that omen dig. I am very scared it goes back to
my family history i suppose This was a shot of the delicate "spirit" that seemed to feel
stuck sullen stopped and glanced out my window this was real heartbreaking cause i realized she was not caged bars the window she came through was right to her side she just was in fear of knocking into another window her head tilt gazing upon a cracked roof
forever changed my views on barriers the windows can not even be glass when you don't see through them appearing as mirrors stuck inside your own head.
Aspergillosis is the most common fungal infection in birds caused by aspergella fumigates. Although birds are commonly exposed to the spores of this fungus, they develop the disease only under certain conditions. If a bird's immune system is suppressed by a concurrent illness, malnutrition or stress, it may become sick after exposure. Stress-induced Aspergillosis is frequently seen in birds subjected to surgery, reproduction, environmental changes, capture, confinement or shipping.
Seized ship cost $150k to taxpayers
A seized Korean deep-sea fishing trawler professionally fumigated after being found to be infested with rats and lice has cost taxpayers $150,000 during its extended Dunedin anchorage.
Revelations of illegal fishing, human rights and employment abuse, and the infestation have dogged Melilla 201, which docked in Dunedin almost a year ago.
The vessel was seized in May and remained the subject of an application to the courts to be sold, a Ministry for Primary Industries spokesman said.
The vessel was seized under section 207 of the Fisheries Act, the ministry believing the vessel to have been been involved in unlawfully discarding quota species fish into the sea.
During Melilla's nine-month stay in Dunedin the ministry had spent $150,000 on berthage, maintenance and security costs.
The spokesman confirmed reports the boat was infested with rats and lice and had to be professionally fumigated.
"Since taking control of the vessel, part of the monthly maintenance costs has been pest detection and control," he said.
The ministry would apply to the courts for recovery of all expenditure associated with holding and maintaining the vessel, he said.
A ministry application to the Christchurch District Court for the vessel to be sold pursuant to the Search and Surveillance Act 2012 had yet to be decided by the courts.
Witnesses had also provided evidence.
A conclusion to the defended hearing in relation to charges against officers aboard Melilla 201 was scheduled for June.
The charges relate to two fishing trips during 2011, the same year the vessel and its sister ship, Melilla 203 - which is also berthed in Dunedin - became embroiled in claims from their Indonesian crews of unpaid wages.
The trawlers are owned by Taejin Fisheries, which is based in Pusan, South Korea.
I learned to see creation
as the coronation of an aching king
sitting on a throne too hard for him
the queen complains
she's got it twice as tough
thirty-three thorns on a crown
is more than enough
"one for every year
you've reigned," she'll say
it takes a village to raise an artist
and poetry doesn't pay
for the depressing
digs of desperation
the fumigation of faith
the walls are swarming
with a scurrying something
and you're tired of being the bait
you think you're still living
that's the saddest thing ever
to know that you'll never be great
you come down hard
on the side of surrender
and they preface
your name with:
"the late"

Top and bottom left photos: With the buddy breakfast officially over thanks to the commotion at Don’s, Mona was trying to work her own deal with her son.
“Jeffrey, I don’t like living with all those old people at the retirement village,” Mona said. “I’d rather be next door to you. That structure would work for me.”
That was certainly not the argument to win her son over!
Both Bobby’s and Jeffrey’s phones were ringing, but neither of them could hear them amid the lively chatter.
“Mr. Richards, I just have to have this property. Marie loves it, and so do I!” Chad begged.
“Now, wait a minute,” Marie said to no one listening. “I didn’t say I loved living there, just that I *had* lived there!”
Right photo: Meanwhile, Timothy had stopped by Emily’s, where she and Elizabeth were still visiting and sipping tea.
Emily’s phone rang. It was Booley Langland, desperately trying to reach Elizabeth.
Booley had stayed in Room 1 at Boolster’s Brew to oversee the ant fumigation, but he wasn’t calling about the coffeeshop or about the ants.
“A fire? At Metro Financial?” Elizabeth asked, stunned. The only Metro resident to ever have any experience with fire was Don Buzzle, but he was accounted for in Room 2.
“Our workplace!” Timothy gasped.

Torrens Island Quarantine Station.
This small mangrove and sand island in the mouth of the Port River was established as a quarantine temporary camp by 1855 by the South Australian government. It was away from the colonial settlement but still very close to Port Adelaide. It provide medical facilities and supervision for people arriving at the port with infectious and possibly infectious diseases especially smallpox and diseases like Scarlet Fever. Although the quarantine station was operational by 1855 most of the first government buildings were erected in the 1877 to 1878 period. After Federation the 551 acre quarantine station land was handed over to the Commonwealth government. At that time apart from the hospital, morgue and administration buildings it had accommodation for 224 people including cottages for staff and workers. The Commonwealth government built a new two storey administration building in 1916 now known as Refshauge House. In 1914 at the start of World War One it was used as an internment camp for alien and internee suspects. This internment camp only operated for less than one year from October 1914 to August 1915. Then in 1918 Torrens Island had a major issue to deal with when the troop ship Boonah arrived from South Africa with 300 deadly Spanish influenza cases aboard. Most of the seriously ill, some of whom died, were taken off at Fremantle but a further 13 cases emerged on the voyage between Albany and Port Adelaide. The Boonah with 437 men and officers anchored at the Semaphore anchorage on 28th December. The thirteen infected soldiers were quarantined in the hospital on Torrens Island and four more were added to this group a couple of days later. But most vessels arrived with passengers infected with smallpox. When the World Health Organisation declared the world free of smallpox in 1979 the Torrens Island Quarantine Station was closed as a human quarantine station but still provides quarantine for animals and plants being imported to Australia. There is a small cemetery within the complex but with only ten recorded burials between 1887 and 1932. The cemetery was consecrated in 1896 when there were already four burials in it dating from 1892. One was Frederick Smith who died of smallpox in 1895 and another was the Reverend Alexander Still in 1892. Torrens Island had its own school from 1928 to 1935. Two power stations also exist on Torrens Island outside the old quarantine area.

Another departure from the norm on this photostream is this shot I just had to stop and take of a huge form-fitting anti-termite fumigation tent on St. Theresa of Avilla Church in nearby Bodega, Ca.
I just got a kick out of it and I hope someone else does, too. By the way, the giant tree at the left and old fence are gone after the tree fell. The place looks quite different now.
Thanks for having a look!
So, in the UK over the last few day, several schools have been closed due to infestation of Britain's supposedly "most deadly spider", Steatoda nobilis. This species is nocturnal spending daylight hours hidden away in a tube retreat making it nigh on impossible to come in contact will any children. The bottom line is, the media make extra money whenever they report these nonsensical stories concerning the false widow with sales spiking as much as 12% and obviously the general public get worried which results in calls to that other unscrupulous bunch, the pest controllers. They pop around to the schools and it's in their best interests to confirm an infestation and make loads of dough fumigating the schools. It ain't rocket science! I want to make this clear, spider bites are a rare occurrence and here in the UK there are no spiders that can be considered deadly or dangerous, contrary to what the media print. Spiders are not aggressive, they don't feed on our blood and certainly don't lay their eggs under our skin. I mean, come on, who writes this stuff? What we can say for certain, in cases of that rare bite occurrence, it would of been the spiders last resort in self-defence due to being either handled roughly or accidentally squashed. What we need is positive education and exposure to these remarkable creatures and maybe one day we can turn fear to fascination.
I must have put my little greenhouse up about 15 years ago and today I decided it was time to get rid of any accumulated pest insects. Plants were cleared out, spiders told to pack their bags and a sulphur candle lit. I have no idea whether it works or is just a waste of time, but at least I cleared junk out in preparation for Summer's staycation. Then it was time to try my older person's dress, which was going very cheap a few weeks ago. The pattern is not as subtle as some other floral dresses I have, but it's comfortable and I like the length. (Of course, it should have been pressed before I wore it, but life's too short).
The Grade I Listed Lyveden New Bield, (sometimes called New Build), an unfinished Elizabethan summer house, which is now owned by the National Trust. It is located close to the village of Aldwincle in Northamptonshire owned by the National Trust.
It was constructed for Sir Thomas Tresham, the fervent Roman Catholic of Rushton Hall, and is thought to have been designed by Robert Stickells. The New Bield was on the estate of Tresham's second home, Lyveden Manor House, also known as Lyveden Old Bield.
New Bield has a religious design full of symbolism. Designed on a plan reminiscent of a Greek cross, the facades have a strict symmetry. The building has two floors above a raised basement, with mullioned and transomed windows. Each floor had three rooms with a staircase in the south projection of the cross. The exterior of the building is decorated by friezes of a religious nature. The metopes contain the emblems and motifs found also at the triangular lodge, such as the "IHS" christogram.
The house had a great hall and parlour on the first floor, kitchen and buttery in the basement, and a bedroom on the upper floor. However, it was probably never intended for full-time occupation. Too close to the main house for use as a hunting lodge, it may have been intended for use as a "Secret House"—keeping a secret house was a custom of the 16th century. Often within a mile of the main house, the secret house was a place where the head of the household would retire for a few days with a minimum of servants, while the principal house was thoroughly cleaned and, bearing in mind the sanitation of the time, fumigated.
Sir Thomas Tresham died in 1605 following decades of religious persecution, his once vast wealth having been severely depleted. His son Francis Tresham inherited the estate, but within the same year, along with his cousins Catesby and Wintour, he became involved in the Gunpowder Plot. Thus, within a year the estate had a third owner, Francis's son Lewis Tresham. The estate was managed by Lewis's mother until her death in 1615. After this, Lewis Tresham, a spendthrift, lost the remaining family wealth. The estate was eventually sold following the death of his son in 1643.

Some people amass money. Orange County’s first female sheriff’s deputy is rich with amazing experiences.
Alice Chandler has been a cowgirl, pilot, trick rider, dog breeder, horse trainer, ranch hand, missionary, movie extra, model – and, yes, a bronze star-wearing, pistol-packing deputy.
Now, at 83, the role that defines Chandler more than any is caregiver. Unlike some, she stays with her clients until their last breath.
There’s a tragic reason for that. And there also are beautiful ones.

To understand what makes someone confident enough to knock down barriers, there often are clues in how they grew up.
Just as the Great Depression was starting, the Chandlers moved from Memphis, Tenn., to Orange County. There wasn’t much money and the family settled into a rental in Santa Ana. Dad worked as a fumigator. Momma sold Avon and tended to her flock, which grew to six sons and three daughters.
The kids wore hand-me-downs. They stuck cardboard in their shoes to walk to school. And Daddy, well, Daddy was a bit too fond of the bottle and the belt.
Often faced with difficult pregnancies, Momma was in no shape to stand up to her husband. Still, she found ways to support and nurture her children.
One day, the young Chandler watched her sister drawing and grew jealous of her artistic ability. Momma explained that everyone has their own God-given talents and that Chandler would soon discover hers.
Raised a Southern lady, she wore gloves when she went shopping. But she also taught her sons and daughters that there were no barriers regardless of what they wanted to do.
As Chandler traveled through elementary school, she fell in love with horses and the cowboy way. She was teased for that. Although the family couldn’t afford dresses, she was teased for wearing pants. She loved learning, but in eighth grade, she had to drop out of school to care for her mother.
Her mother’s love got her through those dark years. But Chandler’s love of God gave her strength to help others.

On the night of one brother’s 16th birthday, Chandler’s father decided it was time his son learned to fire a shotgun.
The boy picked up the gun. It went off. Chandler, 11 years old, looked down at her 5-year-old brother, Monty, dying on the floor, blood spreading over his chest.
Her big brother ran to a nearby orchard, clutching the shotgun. Chandler ran after her big brother.
She found him turning the shotgun on himself. She put her arms around him. She recalled that only days before Monty had made a little wooden cross. He gave it to their mother, saying “Mommy, you can put his on my grave.”
Together, brother and sister prayed. Chandler told her brother he needed to forgive himself, just as God forgave him.

By the 1940s, dad was a gardener for James Irvine and the Chandlers lived in a shack next to Peter’s Lake – an area near Jamboree and Santiago Canyon Road.
The home had running water but no septic tank, lanterns for light, two bedrooms and an outhouse. There was a stretch of winters cold enough to freeze the water in the horse troughs. But it was paradise for Chandler.
Surrounded by cattle, cowboys and horses, Momma somehow scraped up enough money to buy a horse for Chandler as a 16th birthday present.
She and her younger sister soon learned to break horses. Her sister got the buck out. Chandler trained the animals on the finer points of riding.
By her 21st birthday, Chandler was an expert horsewoman. Word got around and she was invited to Santa Ana for an interview with Sheriff James Musick. After an hour, the sheriff pulled out a card stating she was a deputy with full authority and handed her a badge.
He told Chandler that she would be paid for keeping trespassers away from Peter’s Lake, a popular fishing and hunting area. He also said she would respond to other emergencies.
I ask Chandler if she ever had to fire her .32-caliber Smith and Wesson. She shakes her head. “When people saw that badge, they left.”
As the 1940s slipped into the ’50s, Chandler helped cowboys herd cattle, sometimes moving 500 head at a time.
What was it like to be one of the few cowgirls?
“My mother taught us if you act like a lady, they will treat you like a lady,” Chandler says, petting her white miniature poodle, Jelly Bean. “We never swore.
“The cowboys treated us like sisters, and we treated them like brothers.”
Still, her combination of skill, long blonde curls and model cheekbones turned more than a few heads.

Famed rodeo rider Montie Montana offered Chandler a job trick riding and barrel racing. She shows me a gold key fob she received after a show in Palm Springs. She allows, “Prince Phillip gave this to me.”
Next, director Billy Wilder spotted Chandler and her sister and hired them for bit parts in “The Spirit of St. Louis.” But it wasn’t until a brother started flying his own plane that Chandler caught the flying bug.
She earned a pilot’s license and, later, an instructor’s license. She even managed to get a hot air balloon license – although she’d never been in a hot air balloon.
Eventually, the Chandlers bought a small ranch of their own. Chandler worked the ranch and served as a riding instructor. She earned extra money by tracking down a descendant of Rin Tin Tin and breeding German shepherds.
Times were good. The family bought a two-seat Cessna, then a four-seater. But then, Momma signed over the ranch to what Chandler calls a religious cult.
Still, Chandler didn’t let the loss slow her down. In the ’70s, she set off for the Middle East as a missionary and focused on helping children.
After an auto accident, Chandler returned to being a fulltime caretaker – just as she had as a teenager with Momma. Sitting at the dining table in her home in Laguna Woods, Chandler talks about the tranquility on people’s faces when they turn to God while facing death.
She says her mother had that serene look when she died in 1975 with her head on Chandler’s shoulder.
Smiling, Chandler recalls that same kind of peace when a man who had been abused by his grandparents passed. Moments before his last breath he forgave them and prayed.
“Now I lay me down to sleep …
The Grade I Listed Lyveden New Bield, (sometimes called New Build), an unfinished Elizabethan summer house, which is now owned by the National Trust. It is located close to the village of Aldwincle in Northamptonshire owned by the National Trust.
It was constructed for Sir Thomas Tresham, the fervent Roman Catholic of Rushton Hall, and is thought to have been designed by Robert Stickells. The New Bield was on the estate of Tresham's second home, Lyveden Manor House, also known as Lyveden Old Bield.
New Bield has a religious design full of symbolism. Designed on a plan reminiscent of a Greek cross, the facades have a strict symmetry. The building has two floors above a raised basement, with mullioned and transomed windows. Each floor had three rooms with a staircase in the south projection of the cross. The exterior of the building is decorated by friezes of a religious nature. The metopes contain the emblems and motifs found also at the triangular lodge, such as the "IHS" christogram.
The house had a great hall and parlour on the first floor, kitchen and buttery in the basement, and a bedroom on the upper floor. However, it was probably never intended for full-time occupation. Too close to the main house for use as a hunting lodge, it may have been intended for use as a "Secret House"—keeping a secret house was a custom of the 16th century. Often within a mile of the main house, the secret house was a place where the head of the household would retire for a few days with a minimum of servants, while the principal house was thoroughly cleaned and, bearing in mind the sanitation of the time, fumigated.

Torrens Island Quarantine Station.
This small mangrove and sand island in the mouth of the Port River was established as a quarantine temporary camp by 1855 by the South Australian government. It was away from the colonial settlement but still very close to Port Adelaide. It provide medical facilities and supervision for people arriving at the port with infectious and possibly infectious diseases especially smallpox and diseases like Scarlet Fever. Although the quarantine station was operational by 1855 most of the first government buildings were erected in the 1877 to 1878 period. After Federation the 551 acre quarantine station land was handed over to the Commonwealth government. At that time apart from the hospital, morgue and administration buildings it had accommodation for 224 people including cottages for staff and workers. The Commonwealth government built a new two storey administration building in 1916 now known as Refshauge House. In 1914 at the start of World War One it was used as an internment camp for alien and internee suspects. This internment camp only operated for less than one year from October 1914 to August 1915. Then in 1918 Torrens Island had a major issue to deal with when the troop ship Boonah arrived from South Africa with 300 deadly Spanish influenza cases aboard. Most of the seriously ill, some of whom died, were taken off at Fremantle but a further 13 cases emerged on the voyage between Albany and Port Adelaide. The Boonah with 437 men and officers anchored at the Semaphore anchorage on 28th December. The thirteen infected soldiers were quarantined in the hospital on Torrens Island and four more were added to this group a couple of days later. But most vessels arrived with passengers infected with smallpox. When the World Health Organisation declared the world free of smallpox in 1979 the Torrens Island Quarantine Station was closed as a human quarantine station but still provides quarantine for animals and plants being imported to Australia. There is a small cemetery within the complex but with only ten recorded burials between 1887 and 1932. The cemetery was consecrated in 1896 when there were already four burials in it dating from 1892. One was Frederick Smith who died of smallpox in 1895 and another was the Reverend Alexander Still in 1892. Torrens Island had its own school from 1928 to 1935. Two power stations also exist on Torrens Island outside the old quarantine area.
