This week the Sunday Club members Dave K and I visited the Bleanavon Heritage Railway.
Locomotive details-
Builder: R. Stephenson & Hawthorn Ltd., Newcastle-on-Tyne.
Built: 1945, works no.7169
Wheel Arrangement: 0-6-0ST
Wheel diameter: 4’ 3”
Boiler Pressure: 170psi.
Weight : 48 tons 5 cwt.
71515 was commissioned by the War Department in 1945 from Robert Stevenson and Hawthorns as WD71515, but, with WW2 all but over, was quickly put to work at the Swalwell Disposal Point in what was then the county of Durham, but is now Tyne & Wear. At the time the opencast disposal point was worked by Mechanical Navvies Limited, and it is in that company’s livery that the loco now appears.
It was taken into preservation by 1974 to the East Somerset Railway, where shortly after arrival she was was liveried in BR black with the spurious running number 68005.
By 1995 she was in service at the Bolton and Embsay Railway, still in BR black and where she was nicknamed ‘The Mog’. She was overhauled in 2004, but burst a boiler tube two years later and was laid aside.
Three years later, following interest shown by a PBR member, she was purchased in August 2009, and in the following month, taken to the Flour Mill works in the Forest of Dean for repair, and repainting into her original colour. She arrived at Furnace Sidings on 28 April 2010, and has worked the majority of services scheduled for steam haulage since. Her sure-footed bark as she tackles the steep grade between bridge 16 and Whistle Inn, and mournful Midland-style hooter is a familiar sound over Blaenavon.

The core of the Love London range is my book Love London, which came out last year, with 180 photographs of London, teamed up with over 100 quotes about the capital.
www.amazon.co.uk/Love-London-Barbara-Chandler/dp/1849940118
The Love London range present photographs from the book Love London. It's made possible by the fine detail of modern digital printing at the printing works of Digetex in Manchester and The New English in Stoke-on-Trent. Wherever possible the quotes about London are with the photographs on the products. The quotes are on the backs of the cushions for example, and on the backs of the mugs.
Love London is in six London branches of John Lewis, including ground floor at Westfield, Stratford; and second floor in gifts department at John Lewis Oxford Street. Also in Peter Jones and Kingston gifts departments.
All merchandise is on line at
www.johnlewis.com/337414/Product.aspx - some items are currently sold out, but new stock has been ordered. All products are currently available in stores.
Three designs of cushions cost £30 each.
"Ring ring" is a rather battered phone box in Chiswick - scrawled with a "ring ring" slogan.
"Police helmets" was taken in Whitehall at a tourist booth selling helmets for £1.50
"Eros" dates back to the early 90s, when the statue was silhouetted against a particularly beautiful evening sky.
There are two designs of zip-up make-up/wash bags - police helmets, again, and a beautiful little angel head on the drinking fountain of St Paul's Churchyard. This little angel is very versatile as she also appears as a wallpaper mural and is currently on show, over 4m high, in the SCIN gallery in Old Street, Clerkenwell.
Then there are three designs of tea towels, at £10 each. My favourite is the "Pearly Queens", who also appear on a tote bag (£12). All my profits from Pearly Queens merchandise will go to their charities. I am also sending the Pearlies some merchandise to sell for their good causes..
There are also three designs of bone china mug at £10 each - including "Eros", and graffiti in "Abbey Road" (again form the early 90s). The "bulldog" mug, and the large "bulldog" floor cushions feature the dog of a musician in Portobello Road, photographed in the 90s when I was there with my stall selling my photos and handmade cards.
There are also three designs of bone china plates. The black-and-white picture of Tower Bridge is an early one, but Piccadilly Circus at night, and the Millennium Bridge are clearly more recent.
A selection of canvases complete the range at present . These are varied, from the Routemaster buses to the Scary mural which many will recognise from Rivington Street.
I'd like to thank Debbie at Digetex and Paul at The New English for all their design work and product development on this range. Basically, I just want to have the chance to show 25 years of photography to more people.

RAF Station Diary
September 14th, 1945.
An Oxford aircraft was despatched to BLACKBUSHE with spares for the aircraft unserviceable at LAGENS so that they could be flown out on the second lift. It then returned to base. Seven aircraft were airborne from BLACKBUSHE for the AZORES, of which five landed there. One aircraft landed at PERSHORE, having returned through lack of fuel, and the other one crashed on BODMIN MOOR, the crew and passengers being killed. All these aircraft carried RAF personnel and kit. The spare aircraft and crew returned from BLACKBUSHE to base. Combinations stood by all day for ‘EXERCISE ODIRAFT’, ‘EXERCISE TILRAFT’, ‘EXERCISE VALLRAFT’, EXERCISE CHIRRAFT’, ‘EXERCISE STONEYRAFT’, ‘EXERCISE PHILRAFT’ and ‘EXERCISE THORNRAFT’ but were unable to proceed to their respective airfields on account of weather. These exercises were designed to move and display two Halifax-Hamilcar combinations and five Halifax-Horsa combinations on the open day on September 15th, 1945.
Halifax Mk VII PN305 of No. 644 Squadron: dinghy inflated at 18.50 hours while on passenger flight to Azores, crashed Bolventor, Bodmin, Cornwall. Killed (along with 14 passengers on board) were:

**I posted this in ABCs and 123s**
This is the "Punch" end of the buffet table . . . the floating apples are frozen. These are used instead of ice or a frozen punch ring (hard to make as far as *I* am concerned - I quit doing it years ago and use apples of "seasonal" colors - - - green and yellow in the spring, and red or green (depending on what color the punch is) for Christmas, yellow or red for fall, etc. I used green in the white-cranberry-grape-juice punch for my daughter's wedding. (Picture of THAT punch bowl is in the first comment below . . . it wouldn't "stick" here!
My mom taught me this trick and people love it. The apples can be "trash apples" - things you don't particularly enjoy eating . . . small ones, etc., as long as they are good and clean without bruises or "bad" places since they get quite mushy when they thaw out over several hours time.
They're festive and they make WONDERFUL "ice cubes" - - - keep it very cold without diluting the punch at *all*!!!!
In the immortal words of Mikey, the Life Cereal kid, "Try it! You'll LIKE it!" :)
Okene is the birthplace of American Hockey League player and National Hockey League prospect Akim Aliu. People in Okene are predominantly ebira. Inhabitants of the areas northeast and southwest of the confluence of the Niger and Benue rivers in central Nigeria. Their language is usually classified as a Nupoid variety within the Benue-Congo branch of the Niger-Congo language family.
The two main habitats within the Igbira area are a dense, deciduous forest along the Niger and Benue rivers and a hilly savanna region away from the rivers. Most Igbira have traditionally engaged in agriculture; they grow mainly yams but also such crops as beans, millet, and corn (maize). The rivers are used for both fishing and transport. Women do most of the trading and sell both their own and their husbands' produce.
Igbira households were traditionally based on extended families composed of close patrilineal relatives under the authority of the oldest male member. Inheritance and clan membership were reckoned patrilineally. Igbira could marry outside their clans, which were kinship groups represented by totemic animals such as the lion, the crocodile, the leopard, and the python. A key institution of social control was the iregba, a shrine where decisions on religious matters or social offenses were made.
Groups of Igbira villages (wards) drew their chiefs in alternation from branches of ruling families. Village councils could settle disputes, sometimes in collaboration with the chiefs or with councils of other villages involved in the cases. The specifics of chief selection or succession varied between areas within the Igbira region. The Igbira kingdoms of Panda and Koton Karifi were small independent states for about 100 years, until their conquest in the mid-19th century by the Fulani. British administration through traditional rulers began in the early 20th century.
The traditional beliefs of the Igbira centre on Hinegba, the supreme god, who is benevolent, resides in the sky, and controls the universe. Hinegba is approached through intermediary spirits, who are connected with such natural objects as trees. Igbira ancestors are also viewed as agents of Hinegba. Since the early 20th century many Igbira have been converted to Islam and Christianity.

Proyecto paisaje urbano en Tetuán
Plaza del poeta Leopoldo Luis, calles Matadero con Ángel Puech, Hierbabuena, Lope de Haro, Marqués de Viana, Almortas… Barrio de Tetuán, Madrid
Proyecto Tetuán para la mejora de paisaje urbano de Tetuán tiene como objeto desarrollar una experiencia para explorar las posibilidades de mejora del paisaje urbano mediante intervenciones de carácter artístico durante 2013. Esta acción se encuentra entre las recogidas en el Plan Estratégico de Cultura del Ayuntamiento de Madrid 2012-2015 (PECAM) y se inscribe dentro de las líneas encaminadas al fomento de la creatividad, la participación pública y la difusión en la mejora del paisaje urbano. El proyecto contempla, por tanto, dos ámbitos de trabajo: por un lado el orientado a los artistas y sus intervenciones y, por otro, las tareas de difusión y participación ciudadana.
Tras varias sesiones de trabajo abiertas llevadas a cabo durante este año, se generado un grupo de trabajo para la gestión compartida del proyecto del que forman parte: integrantes de Red de agentes culturales de Tetuán (entre los que se encuentran Moenia, Pkmn, Taller de Casquería, Mood Studio o Bea Burgos, de Aquí Tetuán) colectivos dedicados a la creación, la arquitectura o el paisajismo vinculados o interesados en trabajar en el distrito de Tetuán, como Estudio Montes, Pez Arquitectos, Ahora Arquitectura y La Galería Magdalena, representantes o agentes vecinales del barrio, agentes de la Dirección General de Paisaje Urbano, de la Junta Municipal de Distrito e Intermediae.
Tras desarrollar conjuntamente el proyecto y definir las actuaciones a llevar a cabo, el grupo de trabajo ha invitado a otros colectivos a implicarse en acciones concretas acompañadas por agentes vinculados al distrito de Tetuán que han participado en la definición del proyecto. Entre ellos Germinando, Perricac, La Fresquera, Basurama y Zuloark.
También forman parte del proyecto los artistas implicados en los muros artísticos gestionados por el equipo de la Dirección General de Paisaje Urbano testeando el funcionamiento de la Oficina de Gestión de Muros. Entre ellos se encuentran Suso 33, San, E1000, Spy y Borondo.
La propuesta global del proyecto se concreta en cuatro emplazamientos principales, definidos colectivamente y gracias a la colaboración de la junta municipal de distrito que elaboró el catalogo de solares de propiedad municipal, así como del Área de Urbanismo que facilitó la información sobre la calificación de los terrenos para elegir el lugar del Huerto: la Plaza Leopoldo Luis, el solar situado en la calle Nuestra Señora del Carmen, el solar de la calle López de Haro con Berruguete y el solar de calle Matadero con Ángel Puech. Cada emplazamiento agrupa las distintas intervenciones y colaboradores.
- La Plaza Leopoldo Luis: Intervienen Estudio Montes y Pez Arquitectos, Germinando y Perricac.
- El solar de calle Matadero con Ángel Puech: Intervienen Moenia, La Fresquera, La Galería Magadena y Mood Studio.
- El solar situado en la Calle Hierbabuena: Intervienen Pkmn y Taller de Casquería.
- El solar de la calle Lope de Haro: Intervienen Basurama y Zuloark.
- Además Aquí Tetuán, Bea Burgos, llevará a cabo la intervención “Ventanas a Tetuán” basado participación vecinal y la recuperación de la memoria del distrito. A través de las ventanas, metáforas de la memoria de los ciudadanos, el proyecto trata de recuperar el paisaje urbano que no está presente físicamente, o que tan solo se intuye a partir de ciertos elementos - una fuente, un ladrillo, una acera, un adoquín -pero sigue existiendo en la mente de los vecinos. Mood Studio y La Galería Magdalena llevarán a cabo la documentación del proyecto a través de fotografías, retratos de los vecinos e interacciones a pie de calle que generarán un material fotográfico que será expuesto a posteriori. Miguel Díaz de Ahora Arquitectura propone un programa de paseos donde encontramos de lugares desconocidos y un itinerario guiado desde un punto de vista urbano para mostrar las intervenciones realizadas, su desarrollo y su entorno.

FRAMES TO MY MUSIC VIDEO: COME BACK SPARKIN
WATCH IT HERE:
COME BACK SPARKIN is the title of this song and its music video.
SPARKIN should be spelled SPARKING, but I chose to spell it the way I pronounce it.
This is how I create language.
I grew up in urban environments and slang talk has always been my preferred way of expressing myself.
I always loved the level of creativity that could be applied to a language, and the power slang has in societies.
To COME BACK SPARKIN is to come back from a difficult situation while creating something absolutely beautiful out of it.
It is the act of overcoming an obstacle or obstacles no matter the level of difficulty.
We have the power as SuperHumans to take advantage of every situation.
In this song, I first remind myself, that I am the one who chooses to feel down or up, no one else:
No matter what i go through, it can't get me down
Go ahead, take a shot at me. All you are going to do is fuel the beast. In other words, help me excel to the next level:
I'm a Warrior at heart, kick me down !
See what happens, I COME BACK SPARKIN
Some individuals do a whole lot of talking, but their actions do not match their blah blah blah.
Or they spend most of their time talking, while never truly accomplishing and doing something about what they are talking about:
While you're barkin, I move in action !
Realising that I have no one to talk to and spending my time by myself because no one around me is real enough, or I do not relate to them:
Very lonely, no one to talk to
I gain consciousness of my HumanPower , and I choose to Keep My Head Up as Tupac told us.
Keep My Head Up, as I walk through
Dark tunnels, with no light dude
I then realize who I am: I'm the Light Myself.
This is the path of the Warrior. Check out Warrior of Light by Paolo Coehlo if you don't understand this.
I then invite those that feel the way I do to listen to me because I live it like you, and I am uplifting myself.
So join me, and we can lift ourselves together.
Listen to my music, if you need help
Coz I give you energy
The Power and the Will to overcome your enemy
When I say enemy some may think that I am talking about a person outside of themselves, but I am not:
Which is the ego, your own self
Get deeper into your self. Understand that money is a tool, and not the answer to life:
Money is a distraction
The answer to all is within you:
The True Wealth is the Inner
I am not one of those people who thinks money is evil and who does not want money.
I'm a physical being with 5 physical senses, so I enjoy things money allows me to do.
I want to be clear that this is not an anti-money campaign, it is about understanding its role and purpose in our lives.
I do not claim to have the answers, what I do is invite others to my journey.
I recorded this song 3 years ago, and so, being that I have evolved a lot since, I chose to focus this music video on these lyrics and not the remainder of the song.
They no longer apply to who I am today like they did when I wrote them.
The Art Direction of this music video is a continuation of my project THE REBIRTH in which I created an imaginary world where the unreal becomes real.
The quality of this Music Video is very poor, the camera was old and busted, so this is what it is.
I think it's cool to have the quality this fucked up because it's such a huge contrast to crisp HD imagery.
I love crisp HD quality as well :)
Lyrics:
No matter what i go through, it can't get me down
I'm a Warrior at heart, kick me down !
See what happens, I COME BACK SPARKIN
While you're barkin, I move in action !
I'm on a mission !
Very lonely, no one to talk to
Keep My Head Up, as I walk through
Dark tunnels, with no light dude
Actually, I'm The Light Myself
Listen to my music, if you need help
Coz I give you energy
The Power and the Will to overcome your enemy
Which is the ego, your own self
Money is a distraction
The True Wealth is the Inner

SANCTUARIUM : Claude PRIVET expose à la Demeure du Chaos dans son Sanctuaire d’acier le Bunker lieu magique et sacrificiel. Une expo hallucinante se prépare au coeur du Bunker de la Demeure du Chaos dénommée Sanctuarium.
“Cette exposition est l’incarnat parfait de la Demeure du Chaos, qui ne n’oublions pas, possède en son sein le célèbre Temple Protestant de Saint Romain de Couzon (1630/1685) et sa nécropole.
En anthropologie religieuse, un sanctuaire (Sanctuarium, de sanctus, « sacré») est généralement un lieu ou édifice devenu sacré. Il peut alors être interdit aux profanes, et accessible seulement au clergé et aux fidèles .
Par néologisme, le Sanctuaire désigne ainsi un espace bénéficiant d’un ensemble de mesures assurant sa garantie, sa protection, avec une dimension de sauvegarde, de mise à part, d’intangibilité. Ce qui, au regard du combat féroce et de la philosophie propre à la Demeure du Chaos, correspond exactement au terme Sanctuaire” .
thierry Ehrmann la suite sur:
“Claude est un sculpteur plasticien, un être hors du commun dont je ne peux décrire l’intensité. Prochainement, avec Laurent Courau qui est le passeur entre Claude et moi, nous tournerons, dans le cadre de cette expo, une performance « sacrificielle » pour un nouvel épisode des Sources Occultes…” thierry
« La terre s’ouvre sur les reliques et les trophées qui révèlent enfin des vies et des morts ancestrales. Sans vraiment avoir conscience de sculpter, ossements et peaux parcheminées m’apparaissent et «s’inventent» comme si je les découvrais dans les profondeurs.De catacombes en nécropoles, quel long chemin bordé de sépulcres j’ai parcouru jusqu’au sanctuaire de métal… Étape sereine, magique et spirituelle dans le cœur du Chaos… »

By Victoria Choi
USAG Humphreys Public Affairs
CAMP HUMPHREYS – “Kimjang” is an event where kimchi, the ubiquitous food in Korean cuisine, is made in preparation for winter. However, making kimchi is a very labor-intensive process so many neighbors divide up the different parts of this process and then make a huge batch for the entire village. In the past, Kimjang was a way to survive the harsh winters and build ties with neighbors.
The Camp Humphreys Better Opportunity for Single Soldiers (BOSS) program and the Mannam Volunteer Association worked together to organize a Kimjang event, Dec. 1, for those who wanted to volunteer making and giving away kimchi.
More than 30 Soldiers and civilians of Humphreys Community took part and experienced making kimchi and shared it with the elderly and underprivileged people of Gaemi Maeul, located on the northwest slope of Mount Inwangsan, in Hongje-dong, Seoul.
“The purpose of our Kimjang event was to share the meaning of love and the true meaning of helping, giving, and sharing,” said Charleen Hull, Mannam’s South Branch team leader. “We wanted to share with the people of Gaemi Village, who are financially struggling and unable to support themselves due to being elderly or physically disabled. Many of the elders live alone and go to the hospital every day. They are unable to cook for themselves and too proud to ask for help.”
Specialist Kareen K. Medeiros, assigned to Headquarters and Headquarters Company, U.S. Army Garrison Humphreys and who serves as the Camp Humphreys BOSS President, said “The BOSS program decided to get together with Mannam for this project because I thought it would be a good thing for some of our military personnel to get involved with the Korean community and to give back. In my opinion it (the Kimjang event) is very important. We are here overseas, in a host country and having to serve with the Korean military. I feel it is a wonderful opportunity for our single Soldiers to come and experience what everyday living is like here in Korea and what better way to do that than to see some of the traditions themselves.”
Private Tony Harrington, assigned to 719th Military Intelligence Battalion, came to the event with his friends and enjoyed making kimchi for the very first time.
“The reason I came here is because I met a lot of good friends during the ‘Troops for Trash’ and they talked me into coming and making kimchi,” said Harrington. “This is my first time in Korea. I have only been here for (about a ) month and a half and I find it quite fine. During my stay here I try to learn more about this country and this is my first experience with kimchi. It is worth a try. So I’m having fun and enjoying making it.”

I had been meaning to head over to Horsey beach over the winter period, but the wild weather we during that time put me off.
I finally paid Horsey a visit the other week. The reason I was so keen to go was to see the Seals who settle there over the winter period. I was worried that having left it so long I might have missed them. That definitely wasn't the case though as there were dozens of them relaxing on the beach.
This particular Seal was more lively than most looking very alert & paying close attention to what was going on.

The Chiado Museum is an art museum located in Lisbon, in the Chiado neighbourhood. It was created in 1911 and re-inaugurated, in new installations, in 1994.
The museum covers the period between 1850 and 1950, with works by the foremost Portuguese artists of the period, as well as some foreigners. It holds the best collection of Portuguese painting and sculpture from the Romanticism, Naturalism and Modern periods.
Among the artists represented are António Silva Porto, António Carneiro, António Soares dos Reis, Miguel Ângelo Lupi, Columbano Bordalo Pinheiro, Amadeo de Souza Cardoso, Abel Manta, Dórdio Gomes, José de Almada Negreiros, Nadir Afonso, Mário Eloy, Auguste Rodin, and many others. The museum also hosts temporary exhibitions.
Since 1994, the Chiado Museum has occupied the old Convent of São Francisco (Saint Francis) in Lisbon, a building of mediaeval origin. The adaptation and renovation of the convent were done by French architect Jean-Michel Wilmotte.

Situado no centro histórico de Lisboa, o Museu do Chiado – Museu Nacional de Arte Contemporânea, fundado em 1911 como Museu Nacional de Arte Contemporânea, foi inteiramente reconstruído em 1994, sob projecto do arquitecto francês Jean-Michel Willmotte.
Em 1911, a criação de um museu de arte contemporânea terá sido inédita e pioneira no contexto internacional.
A divisão do antigo Museu Nacional de Belas-Artes em Museu Nacional de Arte Antiga, que herdou daquele as obras realizadas até 1850 e continuou instalado no Palácio das Janelas Verdes, e em Museu Nacional de Arte Contemporânea, constituído por todas as obras posteriores a esta data, tendo sido instalado no Convento de São Francisco da Cidade, num espaço vizinho da Academia de Belas Artes. A instalação neste espaço, ainda que provisoriamente, vinha simbólica e oportunamente situá-lo na zona frequentada pelas tertúlias das gerações representadas no museu. Ocupava os antigos salões onde as exposições dos românticos e naturalistas haviam tido lugar, em espaços anexos ao convento.
A colecção de arte portuguesa, de 1850 à actualidade, constitui a mais importante colecção portuguesa de arte contemporânea, incluindo pintura, escultura, desenho, vídeo, entre outros media.
O programa de exposições temporárias, de particular relevância, ocupando totalmente o espaço de exposição, articula-se em três grandes linhas: incide sobre núcleos de obras, artistas e movimentos representados na colecção, propondo revisões e novas pistas de investigação sobre as matérias tratadas; traz a Portugal exposições internacionais que se cruzam com as colecções do museu; e apresenta obras de artistas contemporâneos internacionais.

St Mawes (Cornish: Lannvowsedh) is a small town opposite Falmouth, on the Roseland Peninsula on the south coast of Cornwall, England, United Kingdom. It lies on the east bank of the Carrick Roads, a large waterway created after the Ice Age from an ancient valley which flooded as the melt waters caused the sea level to rise dramatically, creating an immense natural harbour, often claimed to be the third largest in the world. It was once a busy fishing port, but the trade declined during the 20th century and it now serves as a popular tourist location, with many properties in the town functioning as holiday accommodation. The town is in the civil parish of St Just in Roseland. A year-round ferry provides a service to Falmouth, which is less than a mile away by boat, but due to its proximity to the Fal estuary it is some 30 miles away by road. The Place Ferry links the South West Coast Path and operates from Good Friday to the end of October. The town takes its name from the Celtic saint Saint Maudez (Mawe), who may have come from Ireland but is mainly venerated in Brittany. A name: 'Musidum' in Roman times, has subsequently been applied to St. Mawes, although the source is dubious. St Mawes lies within the Cornwall Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB). Almost a third of Cornwall has AONB designation, with the same status and protection as a National Park. St Mawes Castle is a well-preserved coastal fortress from the time of Henry VIII, built to counter the invasion threat from the Continent. Charles Henderson, writing in 1925, says of St Mawes, "an ancient fishing town which in late years has assumed the different and more sophisticated character of a watering place". The seal of St Mawes was Az. a bend lozengy Or between a tower in the sinister chief Arg. and a ship with three masts the sail furled in the dexter base of the second, with the legend "Commune Sigillum Burgi de St. Mawes al Mauditt. Just outside the town is a closed British Leyland garage on Polvarth Road which retains the British Leyland logo on a hoarding outside. There have been frequent private visits to St Mawes by members of the Royal Family including HM Queen Elizabeth the Queen Mother, HRH Princess Margaret and more recently the Duke (Prince Charles) and Duchess of Cornwall who ended their stay in July 2008 by naming the new St Mawes ferry The Duchess of Cornwall. HM The Queen visited St Mawes in 1977 during her Silver Jubilee Tour. In June 2002 for The Queen's Golden Jubilee and, with a brand new cast in June 2012 for the Diamond Jubilee, The Queen's Coronation was re-enacted in great detail by the young people of the village in a ceremony entitled "The Children's Coronation".

PALACIO DE SALDAÑA
Jose Ortega y Gasset 32
Siguiendo el proyecto del arquitecto Joaquín Saldaña, autor de numerosas edificaciones en el Madrid de la época, y del que además recibe el nombre, el inicio de las obras acontece a mediados de 1903.
El Palacio destacaba por sus airosas y elegantes fachadas que otorgaban al conjunto un indudable aire aristocrático acrecentado por la torre amansardada que lo coronaba.
Hasta 1946 el Palacio de Saldaña cambia de propietario en diferentes ocasiones, para ese año convertirse en la sede del Tribunal Tutelar de Menores. Por falta de presupuesto, se suceden años en los que el edificio es descuidado lamentablemente. La situación se agrava con el traslado de la institución.
Los años siguientes convierten al Palacio de Saldaña en una ruina que enmascara totalmente la belleza y elegancia de su hechura.
Conscientes de su inigualable ubicación y de las enormes posibilidades que el edificio ofrecía, en el año 1999, la sociedad El Palacio de Saldaña se hace cargo del mismo, acometiéndose una completa restauración del inmueble para devolverle su fastuoso aspecto original y convertirlo en el más exclusivo punto de referencia en la organización de actos y eventos sociales, culturales, o empresariales de la capital. A lo largo de ese mismo año se realizan las correspondientes reformas exteriores, actuando sobre las fachadas en diversos trabajos de restauración y consolidación. Pronto, para satisfacción de vecinos y viandantes, el Palacio de Saldaña recupera su esplendor y se pasa a rehabilitar el interior. Durante el año 2000 se desarrollan estas obras. El objetivo es dotar al edificio de las más modernas infraestucturas tecnológicas respetando al máximo el encanto original de las diferentes estancias. Se consiguen así amplios espacios, muy luminosos, versátiles y confortables. Se reforman el sótano y el ático configurando nuevas salas multiusos y se instala en todo el edificio el más sofisticado equipamiento en telecomunicaciones.
Concluidas las obras en febrero de 2001, en estos últimos meses numerosas empresas de reconocido prestigio han elegido el Palacio de Saldaña para sus presentaciones de productos, meetings empresariales, o actos de relaciones públicas, devolviendo este hermoso edificio a la primera página de la vida social madrileña. El alto nivel de satisfacción demostrado por los responsables de estas empresas ha situado ya a El Palacio de Saldaña como obligada referencia dentro de los más selectos espacios dedicados a la organización de eventos y reuniones de empresa.
El primer acto oficial que se celebró en esta nueva etapa de El Palacio de Saldaña fue la inauguración de la exposición de pintura de Emilia Sánchez Ibargüen a principios del mes de marzo y en el marco del denominado Espacio de Arte, una iniciativa que pretende dar a conocer la obra y las inquietudes artísticas de creadores de todas las tendencias y estilos.

St. Louis is an independent city and inland port in the U.S. state of Missouri. It is situated along the western bank of the Mississippi River, which marks Missouri's border with Illinois. The Missouri River merges with the Mississippi River just north of the city. These two rivers combined form the fourth longest river system in the world. The city had an estimated 2017 population of 308,626 and is the cultural and economic center of the St. Louis metropolitan area (home to nearly 3,000,000 people), which is the largest metropolitan area in Missouri, the second-largest in Illinois (after Chicago), and the 22nd-largest in the United States.
Before European settlement, the area was a regional center of Native American Mississippian culture. The city of St. Louis was founded in 1764 by French fur traders Pierre Laclède and Auguste Chouteau, and named after Louis IX of France. In 1764, following France's defeat in the Seven Years' War, the area was ceded to Spain and retroceded back to France in 1800. In 1803, the United States acquired the territory as part of the Louisiana Purchase. During the 19th century, St. Louis became a major port on the Mississippi River; at the time of the 1870 Census it was the fourth-largest city in the country. It separated from St. Louis County in 1877, becoming an independent city and limiting its own political boundaries. In 1904, it hosted the Louisiana Purchase Exposition and the Summer Olympics.
The economy of metropolitan St. Louis relies on service, manufacturing, trade, transportation of goods, and tourism. Its metro area is home to major corporations, including Anheuser-Busch, Express Scripts, Centene, Boeing Defense, Emerson, Energizer, Panera, Enterprise, Peabody Energy, Ameren, Post Holdings, Monsanto, Edward Jones, Go Jet, Purina and Sigma-Aldrich. Nine of the ten Fortune 500 companies based in Missouri are located within the St. Louis metropolitan area. The city has also become known for its growing medical, pharmaceutical, and research presence due to institutions such as Washington University in St. Louis and Barnes-Jewish Hospital. St. Louis has two professional sports teams: the St. Louis Cardinals of Major League Baseball and the St. Louis Blues of the National Hockey League. One of the city's iconic sights is the 630-foot (192 m) tall Gateway Arch in the downtown area.

City Museum is a museum whose exhibits consist largely of repurposed architectural and industrial objects, housed in the former International Shoe building in the Washington Avenue Loft District of St. Louis, Missouri, United States. Opened in 1997, the museum attracted more than 700,000 visitors in 2010.
The City Museum has been named one of the "great public spaces" by the Project for Public Spaces, and has won other local and international awards as a must-see destination. It has been described as "a wild, singular vision of an oddball artistic mind."

This is a short-long report on the feast that the country of Trecastagni (Sicily) celebrates in honor of the Three Saints Martyred Brothers Alfio, Cirino and Filadelfo, which takes place every year on 10 May at the Sanctuary with the same name (probably the name of the village of Trecastagni takes its origin from the three brothers: Tres Casti Agni, may be come from Three Mild Lambs). In the night between nine and 10 May, hundreds of devotees come to the shrine to ask a favor, or in thanksgiving for favors received: many devotees come carrying a lighted candle on their shoulders, some devotees are barefoot, others called " i nuri "(the nudes) that can be stripped to the waist, but also have a white shirt with a red sash over his shoulder. Devotees arrive on foot at night, coming from near and far towns (even 30 or 40 km)
The three brothers, Alfio, Cirino and Philadelphus, were the sons of two nobles who had embraced the Christian faith, we are near the end of the year 251 in Vaste (Lecce); the three brothers to have declared to be their of Christian religion, they were brought in chains to Rome, in an attempt to get them to desist from that their conviction; then they were brought in Pozzuoli, and then in Sicily (at each stage was followed by an interrogation in a vain attempt to get them to change the religion in which they firmly believed). In Sicily they underwent a process in Taormina (Messina), they went from Trecastagni (Catania), and finally arrived in Lentini (Syracuse) where they were killed May 10 by 253: Alfio was torn tongue, making it the patron saint of dumb people; he was 22 years and 7 months; Philadelphus was burned on a burning grill, he was 21; Cirino who was 19 years and eight months, was immersed in a kettle full of boiling oil.
The feast of Saint Alfio of Trecastagni is characterized by the arrival of many typical Sicilian carts, from stalls selling votive objects and not, and the sale of fragrant bouquets of fresh garlic.
This my report was produced in two years (2014 and 2015).
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Questo è un report breve e lungo, che ho realizzato nell'arco di due anni (2014 e 2015) sulla festa che si tiene nel paese di Trecastagni (Sicilia - CT), e che si celebra in onore dei tre fratelli martiri Alfio, Filadelfo e Cirino, e che, pur avendo luogo dall'1 fino al 17 Maggio, trova la sua massima espressione il 10, quando le statue dei Tre Santi Fratelli, che si trovano nel Santuario, di antiche origini Normanne, vengono esposte al pubblico (la cosiddetta "svelata") poichè vengono aperti i battenti della cosiddetta "cameretta", entro la quale restano per tutto l'anno (tranne in questa occasione, dal 10 Maggio, fino alla prima domenica di Giugno). Sembra che il paese di Trecastagni deve questo nome poichè vi passarono i Tre Fratelli: Trecastagni potrebbe essere una forma contratta del termine latino "tres casti agni", ovvero tre casti agnelli. Durante la notte, tra il 9 ed il 10 di Maggio, centinaia di devoti giungono dai paesi viciniori, percorrendo a piedi anche lunghe tratte (anche 30 o 40 Km), spesso con ceri votivi più o meno pesanti, arrivando quindi al santuario chi per chiedere una intercessione, chi per ringraziare di una grazia ricevuta, chi semplicemente per pregare e partecipare a questo sentito appuntamento; alcuni devoti camminano scalzi in segno di pentimento e devozione, ci sono anche i devoti chiamati "nudi" che indossano solo un pantaloncino (a volte indossando una maglietta bianca), con una fascia rossa sul torace ed un cero votivo acceso portato in spalla; spesso questi devoti, giunti nel Santuario, vengono colti da una violenta emozione, che li porta a spendere le loro ultime energie, correndo verso l'altare, a volte implorando a voce alta l'intercessione dei Tre Fratelli in un dialogo "a tu per tu".
I tre fratelli, Alfio, Filadelfo e Cirino, erano i figli di due patrizi che avevano abbracciato la fede Cristiana, siamo verso la fine dell'anno 251 in quel di Vaste (Lecce); l'essersi dichiarati, i tre fratelli, di fede cristiana, fu per loro causa di condanna, per cui furono portati in catene dapprima a Roma, nel tentativo di farli desistere da quel loro convincimento; poi furono portati a Pozzuoli, e quindi in Sicilia (ad ogni tappa faceva seguito un interrogatorio nel vano tentativo di farli recedere da quel culto Cristiano nel quale credevano fermamente). In Sicilia subirono un processo a Taormina (Messina), passarono quindi da Trecastagni (Catania), ed infine giunsero a Lentini (Siracusa) ove li vennero trucidati il 10 maggio del 253: ad Alfio venne strappata la lingua, diventando così il Santo Patrono delle persone affette da mutismo, aveva 22 anni e 7 mesi; Filadelfo fu bruciato su di una graticola ardente, aveva 21 anni; Cirino che aveva 19 anni ed 8 mesi, venne immerso in una caldaia colma di olio bollente.
La festa di S. Alfio di Trecastagni si caratterizza anche per altre tradizioni: si assiste all'arrivo di molti coloratissimi e pittoreschi carretti siciliani, si assiste ad una gara di spettacolari fuochi pirotecnici, c'è la vendita di mazzi profumatissimi di aglio fresco (cu và a Sant'Affiu e nun ccatta l'agghi, quannu gira 'a casa trova l'imbrogghi ...); piacevolissimo è camminare nella via principale del paese letteralmente presa d'assalto da bancarelle che vendono oggetti-generi alimentari di ogni tipo e genere.
