the beautiful Renaissance palace in Arnes is now the town hall. I have been visiting Arnes for years, but only recently discovered the unusual mason marks- there are several visible in this shot.
I have been wanting to make my own kimchi for years. Our recent
fermentation class pushed me to actually look up a recipe and gather
the ingredients. I made a dumbed down version using just carrots,
cabbage, salt and two types of whey. Now I am ready to move forward
and try adding a few more ingredients such as ginger, garlic, and
chili flakes to give the kimchi a little flavor. There are two
important things I learned on my first batch.
1. There are different types of whey. The whey that is a bi-product of
our cheese making is essentially dead. The enzymes and bacteria have
been killed off due to the high temperatures. I can use my whey
leftover from the cheese stuff, but I need to also introduce a small
amount of cultured whey which I have obtained from a kefir culture.
2. Vacuum sealing the mason jars worked well for my first batch. I had
a raging boil of activity and no air exposure which can cause
dangerous purification for vegetables not completely submerged in the
whey.
I ate the first batch with jasmine rice and it was deliciously
flavorful despite the minimal ingredients.

"A crowd has gathered, facing a light, an illumination
brought about by a fire, an event, an ideology -- or an ideal. The strong light casts shadows, and as the light moves toward the back and diminishes, the mood degenerates; rowdiness, disorder and violence occur, showing the fragile nature of man. Illumination, hope, involvement, hilarity, irritation, fear, illness, violence, murder and death -- the flow of man's emotion through space.

I thought this was a cellophane bee but after some more searching I can see that it is a mason bee gathering mud. I know it's a mason bee because I have found the identical bee nesting in my mason bee house.

Charlotte Hornets basketball star Anthony Mason is escorted in handcuffs from the 112 Precinct in the Queens Borough of New York early Sunday morning Feb. 8, 1998, after he was arrested late Saturday on two counts of third-degree rape of two teen-age girls following five hours of grilling by detectives. Mason's lawyer, Frank Rothman, who was anticipating the arrest on statutory rape charges all day Saturday, insisted his client is the victim of a shakedown by the girls. (AP Photo/Stuart Ramson)
Few people achieve success and notoriety in more than one field, but Tony Mason has managed it! He joined a local car club before he even had a car, eventually climbing to the top with rally wins in his native Lake District, before joining the prestigious Ford works team and co-driving Britain’s biggest rally star, Roger Clark, to win outright the RAC Rally – Britain’s toughest event of its kind. He started a successful car accessory business then ventured onto the stage for a short while, before being signed by the BBC to appear on its popular Top Gear programme, on which he was a main presenter for 15 years. His cheery presence became a popular part of the programme, and he moved from rallying to driving all manner of vehicles, from vintage Rolls-Royces, Reliant Robins, tanks, fire engines and Eddie Stobart trucks. After he was famously bombarded with snowballs during a report on the Monte Carlo Rally, he became even better known, with the famous out-take being shown on programmes around the the world.
Tony Mason’s light-hearted, jovial persona transfers from television to page in this autobiography, taking readers on a trip from his early life in the seaside town of Morecambe through almost 100 countries, with thrills, spills, ups-and-downs all vividly remembered and often shown in photographs.

The above picture shows the employees of Mason Motor Car Company, lined up in front of the factory, located at
100 - 110 - 114 Southeast 5th Street (East 5th & Vine), in Des Moines, Iowa. An authority on the car places this picture between late 1907 to 1908. Nothing of this factory remains today, disappearing as an address from the city directory in 1937. The company was founded as The Mason Motor Car Company, but in 1909, the name was changed to The Mason Automoblile Company, and a new group of leaders took control. This new leadership lasted about a year, then they wanted out. Fred Maytag, William Galloway and others took control in late 1909.
There have been quite a number of past newspaper and magazine articles that have displayed a small picture of what was supposed to be the Des Moines factory, but in all actuality, it was the Maytag-Mason Auto Company in Waterloo, Iowa that was shown. Many websites also display the Waterloo plant as the Des Moines plant as well. We have several pictures of this building at later dates, and some of the Waterloo plant at it's current metal-clad existence, so the above picture has been substantiated as the Des Moines location.
Nobody in the above picture has been positively identified yet, but the portly gentleman in front of all the others in front of the office door on the right is most probably Ed Mason. In the 1908 city directory there are listings for several employees as apprentices, and they are probably the 3 or 4 young men standing in front of the right hand garage door opening.The following information below was culled from Des Moines city directories of the time period. Given are their names, occupation and place of residency;
Given the news of bee die-offs in recent years, lots of people are getting into mason bees. Solitary, nonaggressive bees - and native to North America - they are hardworking garden pollinators. They lay their eggs in any small hole they can find - here, purpose-built paper straws in which they lay a succession of eggs - capping each egg cell with mud in an effort to keep predators out. This photo shows two bees - one outside the tubes, the other just emerging from one. Over the succeeding months, the eggs hatch and the larvae build cocoons for themselves, in which they complete the transformation into adult bees in time to emerge in the spring.
Dr. Deedra Mason talks on stage about new products and their benefits at #MAIC2013. Learn more about the event at the Market America Blog.
The tube on the center left has been filled with eggs. You can see the female bee on the center right working at filling that tube.
The tubes are about 7 inches deep and the female mason bee lays about one egg per inch.

May is the month for Mason Bees! They seal the entrance to the nesting tube with mud. Fascinating to watch.
Meet Mason, another office colleague of mine. Captured this candid shot while he was deep into something while listening to some tunes. I think this might work as a great BOSE advertisement :)

If you count the holes you will come up with 630 holes in these 30 blocks of wood. They are in the process of becoming "Mason Bee Blocks." The final assembly will be done by the Summer Teen Group (The Green Teens) at Jackson Bottom Wetlands Preserve.
Mason bees are important pollinators and lay their eggs in holes in wood. These blocks are design so a person can "harvest" the eggs in the fall, clean them (making sure they are free of mites and other bugs), store them in a refrigerator over the winter, and them put them out in the spring.
With luck, each tube will have 6-7 bee eggs. The bee block I have at home (a slightly different style) now has 7+ tubes filled which means I may have as many as 40 bees waiting to come to life next spring.
