Back in the early '90s, my then-boyfriend and I were traveling to San Diego in July. By the time we got to Yuma, it was hot, glaringly bright, and the A/C couldn't keep up. By the time we got to El Centro, it was brighter (2pm) and hotter. (120 deg F) I was fading fast. Then, it was the sight of this fertilizer tank, with the words, "sea level", marked with a line half way up the tank, that made me feel like I was about to dry up and blow away out the window. "Below sea level!!!" I exclaimed in disbelief. I felt like I was sinking down into Hell, taking all the heat with me. At the time, we were attending college up at 7,000 feet altitude, so it was quite a difference from everyday life!
The boyfriend became the husband a few years later, and last week, we came by this way again, with the kiddos. Thank goodness it was January instead of July! Husband pulled off I-8, and found the dirt road along the fence line, so I could get my pinhole of the tank. Two employees road up in their little golf cart, leery of what we were doing. We excused ourselves as crazy tourists, taking a picture of their fertilizer tank, with a metal can. I can't believe they bought it!

ps for Husband: Yes, I concede- the tank is on the ((left)) side of the freeway!
All quite, and a beautiful day for a stroll down the river, But all is not what it seems, the broken bridge reveals that not 12 days before, this river was a raging torrent which swept everything before it.

¿Te has parado alguna vez ha hablar contigo mismo?
La vida puede ser de otro color si se habla de racismo.
No vengo a dar un discurso de derechos humanos,
ni vengo a contaros una de romanos, es la lucided frente a la estupidez que existe.
Yo me pregunto donde empieza y donde acaba el chiste.
Buen desplante al vendedor ambulante que es otro currante, con familia y un futuro por delante.

So, I said I was going to refold this design. School has kept me too busy to work through projects quickly, but I'm still working on new origami projects as often as I can.
I this version, I widened the proportions, adjusted the proportional relationship of the units to each other, and changed the angles. I also used better paper. The improvement is vast. The proportions could still be slightly wider, but I found out that as the proportions get wider, this gets harder to assemble, particularly the middle, so I'm happy with it the way it is. :-P
Designed by me.

The dogs and I had a run out to the Levels today and met Joy and Graham. Not much wildlife to be seen but a lovely day for a walk.
I'm at 21' above sea level, so no hills, but these guys made it to the top!
They endured an arduous journey from the floor of the Pizza Parlor to The Counter to the top of the Refrigerated Beverage Display (RBD).
They are Top Chefs, Top of the Heap, Kings of the Hill!

The very orange bricks on the side walls of the levels of Anglia Square car park (side view), Norwich, UK
I was here, as I had read that Shoreham had a particularly fine Rood Screen and loft still in situ, and that it reached fully across the body of the church.
You approach the church from the river, up a narrow high street with the Lych Gate straight ahead as the road dog legs right.
Once through the Lych Gate, there is a narrow path right ahead of you, lined on both sides by fir trees, the church itself can be glimpsed through gaps in the trees, however in summer it is almost hidden. Until you come level with the wooden porch, and the welcoming sign that the church is open.
Upon entering, you see the church was two cell orginally, with a lean to aisle on the south, which now houses the Lady Chapel. And stretching across both parts is the splendid Rood Screen.
Fully six and a half feet wide at the top, carved and well looked after, it is a glory.
All about were the wardens and volunteers doing the weekly clean up, and refreshing the fine floral displays.

CHURCH OF ST PETER AND ST PAUL
I
Church sited on the edge of a village rich in historic buildings. The foundations of the Norman chancel were found under the nave in 1956-7. C14 N wall; N chapel early Perp; other features mostly late Perp; c.1775 W tower, rebuilt after a fire. Chancel rebuilt and the north east vestry/organ chamber added in the 1860s restoration by Woodye; restoration in the 1950s.
MATERIALS: Flint and stone rubble with freestone dressings; the tower flint with red brick dressings; tiled roofs.
PLAN: Nave and chancel in one, west tower; south bay south arcade; north chapel, north east vestry/organ chamber; south east chapel, south west porch.
EXTERIOR: Chancel with coped gable, diagonal buttresses with set-offs and 3-light east window of 1953 (following war damage) with reticulated tracery. One Decorated and one Perpendicular style window to the nave. The C14 north chapel (now the vestry) has a 2-light window (tracery much renewed), Woodyer's eastward extension is largely Decorated style but has a 3-light Perpendicular east window. The south aisle is buttressed, one buttress partly rebuilt in red brick with 3-light Perpendicular windows (much stonework renewal) with cinquefoil-headed lights and Tudor arched heads. Very lively design to 3-stage tower with red brick banding to the lower and clasping toothed pilaster buttresses to the upper stages, above a red brick platband. The tower has a pierced red brick parapet and obelisk pinnacles with ball finals. Windows and doorways in the tower have proud architraves with keyblocks and capitals; pedimented clockface on west face, 1857 clock. The south west porch is remarkable: timber-framed and gabled with renewed cusped and pierced bargeboards. Although it has been extensively repaired the front posts and spandrels each side of the doorway are constructed out of the solid. The spandrels are carved with blind tracery. Much of the construction above the doorway and of the side walls appears to be C19 with ad hoc repairs, but the design of a plain crown post braced to the collar purlin may be original. The timber framed sides of the porch sit on a flint base and the tier of panels below the middle rail have flint infill. Above the rail are, to the front, 5-light square-headed timber mullioned openings with traceried heads and, to the rear, panels filled with diagonal boarding.
INTERIOR: The nave has a medieval 4-bay Perpendicular crownpost roof, the crownposts with moulded capitals and bases and 4-way bracing. The south chancel chapel has a probably late medieval boarded, panelled roof with flat carved bosses at the intersections of the ribs and a C19 parclose screen, made locally. 6-bay south arcade with engaged shafts with capitals and moulded arches, one and half bays to the chancel. Probably late medieval tie beam and common rafter roof to the south aisle. The chancel roof is 1860s and is boarded and panelled, including one bay of the nave. C19 reredos of stone panels with painted figures under ogee arches, the stone panelling extending across the width of the sanctuary. Octagonal responds to the moulded arch into the north chapel. Stone flag flooring to nave, salvaged from Shoreham Place and laid in 1955-7. Impressive late medieval (restored) timber screen with rood loft with lierne vaulting extends across the width of the nave and south aisle, the main doorway to the nave off-centre and the south end projecting across one of the aisle windows. This is said to be the only surviving screen in Kent that extends across the full width a church.
SUBSIDIARY FEATURES: Plain medieval octagonal stone font with a rustic conical font cover, said to be Tudor. 1827 timber drum pulpit designed by Blore, originating from Westminster Abbey: a timber drum with well-proportioned blind Gothic tracery below crocketted gables. Organ case 1730, also from Westminster Abbey. Simple nave benches with open backs and ends. Stained glass includes a 1903 Morris and Co window to Burne-Jones's design. C14 tomb canopy on north wall. Wall monuments include 4 of early C18 date by Henry Cheere (Pevsner) to members of the Borrett family.
The path to the church from the village is planted with Irish yews, said to date from 1867.
SUMMARY OF IMPORTANCE: St Peter and St Paul is a largely medieval church with an outstanding late medieval timber-framed porch and very lively polychromatic C18 tower. The interior includes a late medieval rood screen, late medieval roofs and good quality fittings re-used from Westminster Abbey.

The porch is of very solid fifteenth-century workmanship with good, though weathered, carvings in the spandrels and plain bargeboards above. Inside the church the greatest treasure is the rood screen, with its original loft - 6 ft 6 in wide. It shows the Pomegranate of Catherine of Aragon carved on its door, and this may help us date it to the visit of Henry VIII and his queen to nearby Otford Palace in 1520. The pulpit of 1827 is by Blore and is one of two in the county that originally stood in Westminster Abbey (the other is at Trottiscliffe). In the south wall is a window of 1903 depicting Joy, Creation and Love by the firm of Morris and Co. A most unusual thing to find is the painting of Lt Verney Cameron, who led the expedition to find David Livingstone in 1873, painted by Charles Cope RA.
a level 5 alert fire is the highest level a fire can be gauged. a level 5 requires the assistance of all available firefighters to help control the situation. yesterday i came across this fire incident which was given this status as the conditions, high level winds, water shortage and very dry weather, induced the flames even further. this large fire razed through this community of urban informal settlers in metro manila scorching hundreds of houses that left hundreds of families homeless. firefighters were able to control the fire after 12 hours
