2009. Rehearsal Dinner at Panco Villa, Stafford after the wedding ceremony rehearsal. 09/11/12.

Nice crotch shot of Chris N. Playing pool at Carolyn's Birthday/St. Patrick's Day party at Clint & Carolyn's House.

Farr's Bay Nature Reserve lies on the shores of Lough Neigh in County Antrim, Northern Ireland. The lowering of the lake in the 1930's led to the natural reclamation of the old shoreline. Alder and Ash trees have reclaimed the area, but it's still pretty boggy in parts. There was a scattering of Wild Garlic, Bluebells and Ferns, with Yellow Flag Iris's in the wetter parts when i visited a few weeks back.

 

As soon as I saw this location I new there was an image in there, but I really struggled to get a composition I was happy with. I think I was trying to get too much in, and found it hard to separate out the individual elements.

 

I'm still in two minds about this image and would value peoples comments.

Britt and Chris got married at Regester Chapel in Stafford, VA on 09/12/09. Reception followed at Seacobeck Hall, Mary Washington University

We went out to dinner with my Mom, Dad, brother, and sister-in-law for my Mom's birthday. Then Chris & I went back to my parents' house for a little karaoke.

St Bartholomew, Lostwithiel, Cornwall

 

Some background information:

 

The parish church in the little town of Lostwithiel in central Cornwall was founded in the 12th century. It’s dedicated in honour of St Bartholomew, the patron saint of tanners. Nowadays the church is a Grade I listed building.

 

St Bartholomew includes a tower from the 13th century with a spire added in the early 14th century. Around the spire’s foot there’s an octagonal screen with former windows on four of its eight sides.

 

On the north side of the church there’s a St Catherine’s Wheel and above the nave there’s a clerestory, which is very unusual for a Cornish church.

 

St Bartholomew also has some fine monuments of Georgian period and a brass of 1423. The east window of five lights, which (just like the spire) dates from the early 14th century, is one of the most notable in Cornwall. Also outstanding is the 14th century font with carved figures of a huntsman and hawk, a head with leaves sprouting from its mouth, an evil face, a wolf and hounds as well as lions.

 

During the Civil War in 1644 the church was damaged, when Lostwithiel and the Fowey peninsula were occupied by 10,000 Parliamentary soldiers. At that time it was also desecrated and used to stable horses. The story goes that one of the horses was christened "Charles" by Parliamentary soldiers. This is perhaps why Prince Charles resolved upon visiting St Bartholomew on 4th July 2009 - together with his own royal "horse" Camilla. Please forgive me this impertinence, but I simply couldn’t resist. ;-)

 

By the way, current thinking is that the name Lostwithiel comes from the Old Cornish "Lost Gwydhyel" meaning "tail-end of the woodland". I also don’t want to forget mentioning that the most famous residents of Lostwithiel were the two female novelists Daphne du Maurier and Rosamunde Pilcher. The former grew up there, the latter lived there for a while.

On vast field one day a boy walked,

For miles saw nothin’,

Another mile saw somethin’,

On the midst,

Moves on to lead,

What’s yonder,

In laconic motion, neigh,

Lad saw haughty tree

  

So thick, so verdant,

Her branches twist’d sturdy,

Sallow green leaves lordy,

Yet no flora speak proudly,

Waited countless years dearly,

Much awaited sweetness,

Of her smooth skinn’d heart

  

Boy slept ‘till mornin’

Wakes up adorin’ sunrise,

Walks to window surprise,

To see dyin’ mango tree,

Needs waterin’ to free,

Life once again,

Naïve, florid, a smilin’,

Though nescience was he

  

Grandpa a comin’one day

Started a workin’,

Prunin’, a sprayin’,

Though he was ignoble,

Keeps away trouble,

Needs he no footless,

Yet full of ludic tale,

When mango tree a talkin’

  

The protégé listened

His latitudinarian Ol’ man,

Once a valiant seaman,

By then turned farm hand,

Possesses mango land,

A sellin’ the sweetish fruit,

That’s Ol’ man’s dream,

And it’s comin’ true

  

Days passed by

Trees a flowerin’ all over,

Redolent in fragrance moreover,

Elated they were, boy an’ grandpa,

Ol’man enjoyed today’s spa,

Once sugary fruit comes in,

Green dough starts a pourin’

Tope! As the French say

  

Another sunny mornin’

Laddy boy comes rushin’,

Tellin’ Ol’man’s face a washin’,

Heart shaped fruit hangin’,

Hundreds each trees bangin’,

Ready for pickin’,

The saccharin fruit,

Packed in cartons for transport

  

Hard day’s work finished

Aged, juvenile face creases,

Appearance of happiness,

Without taking sight thereof,

Sallow skinn’d fruits afar off,

There’s endless wealth surely,

If Ol’ man’s aegis,

Wil’ be there to stay

  

Mango tree live hundred years

Ol’man’s can’t live long,

Protégé took before long

Ignoble he’d become

Nor froward he’d overcome

Son, grandson, great grandson

Heritage will go on

So with the tree and its sugary fruits

  

Of all the fruits,

Mango the sweetish of them all!

Rangers v Hearts,

Scottish Premier League,

3 May, 2009.

Nearly every Saturday night, the jackass relatives of our next door neighbors descend on our circle like a flock of redneck locusts, showing absolutely no consideration for any of us who actually live in this circle, and parking where-ever the hell they feel like. This is an image from a recent Saturday of how close they will park to my car (the purple one). They always stay from mid-afternoon to mid-evening, and merely sneer at us or ignore us completely when we complain about how close they park to my car, or how close they come to blocking access to our driveway. If I'm working, then by the time I get home at 6:30, they've parked two vehicles in the space I normally park my own car, often sticking out over the entrance to our driveway. Honestly, after the way they behave, I've felt very little compulsion to stopping myself from keying the sides of their cars.

The bugle's stirring blast,

The charge, the dreadful cannonade,

The din and shout, are past.

******PLEASE NOTE THIS STORY IS DEDICATED TO A GOOD FRIEND*******

 

Chris was just a simple boy living a simple life boring as ever no Adventure and no fun in life

 

the only one that found solice in his life was his best friend of a horse Buck him and Buck were

 

unseparable he even knew when Chris was done at school and trot there to give him a ride

 

home Chris would always appreciate the ride other kids would laugh at him and call him weird

 

for having a horse for a friend but that didn't bother chris at all it was a weekend another boring

 

non adventurous weekend Chris never felt so bored in his whole entire life so he did what he

 

always did when he felt down he went out to see Buck as he walked over to him Buck raised

 

himself up and gave a graceful neigh Chris ran over to Buck hugged him and recived a big

 

sloppy lick on the cheek Chris gave a chuckle and just stood there speaking to him about all

 

about lifes problems and him wanting a big adventure with Buck Chris just lied on the grass

 

speaking to buck he just stood there listening and understanding as he nodded his head a

 

couple of times he walked on closer to Chris hooves right by his head and looked down on him

 

he felt Chris's heartache for adventure and fun with him and it would be nice he thought for a

 

second but the only thing he could do is make Chris smile and he liked that so he lowerd his

 

head all the way down to Chris stuck out his slimy tounge and licked all over his face Chris

 

laughed and gave a scream Buck licked Chris four times and stopped when Chris put his hand

 

on Bucks face to stop him so Chris sat up and gave a chuckle "I know Buck I love ya too" Buck

 

nodded his head three times "thew good thing im not bug sized or that wouldn't end well

 

*laugh*" Buck gave a neigh "*sigh* down there right now is alot of adventure the life of a bug i

 

bet it is so fun i would love that kind of adventure" Buck understood what Chris was saying but

 

he's not magic even tho he wished to be just so he could make Chris's dream come true even a

 

wish like that wouldn't come true so a whole boring day continued and night time came Chris

 

was in bed and Buck was in his stable all of a sudden there were loud noises a strange man in a

 

black sweater and army green pants jumped over a fence into Chris's garden there were loud

 

poilce sirens it caused Buck to neigh and kick all over the place Chris could hear the all the

 

noises outside so he went out to investergate he got out of bed ran down stairs and turned the

 

porch light on the strange man got startled he ditched the srange round thing on the ground

 

and leaped over the fence and made a run for it Chris ran over to the stables to check on Buck

 

as he ran his leg hit his other leg and he tripped over himself he opend his eyes and saw a

 

strange round thing on the floor he could see the purple magical aura all around the talansman

 

he picked it up and fiddled with it and it began to glow causeing Chris to disappear out of

 

nowhere then the talansman faded away in exsistance Buck continued to neigh untill all was

 

calm he ran out the stable to strech his legs and he stood directly by Chris he was in the grass

 

all tiny and uncontious undetected by Buck after stretching his legs he ran back into the stables

 

and rested untill morn the next morning came and Chris finaly awoke but not in his room but a

 

grassy jungle he felt like he saw this before but it didn't come to mind so Chris did what anyone

 

else would do and that was explore the jungled area Chris thought he was dreaming at first

 

because he was actually haveing an adventure but felt down because Buck wasn't around to

 

enjoy the adventure with him he looked all over and around to see if Buck was around then he

 

began shouting for Buck the one thing he remembers is running outside in a panic after hearing

 

Buck neighing in discomfort and sirens outside but it all went blank just after picking up the

 

strange talansman and then waking up in a strange jungle so he shrugged the memory off his

 

head and started shouting for Buck but nothing was there to hear him far far away to Bucks

 

point of view he happly trotted out to the garden and gave a neigh to Chris's point of view the

 

neighing sound was unbearable Chris couldn't handle it he screamed when he heard the loud

 

neighing then at Bucks point of view he lowerd down with his hooves to the ground to Chris's

 

point of view it wasn't much as lowering down then it was crashing down two massive walls

 

landed in front of Chris like an explosive earthquake but at Bucks point of view there wasn't a

 

sound to be heard Chris never heard or saw anything like this in his life so Chris pinch himself

 

hard as possible untill he screamed and realized that he was still there in the surrounded jungle

 

with two humungous wall right in front of him so he backed right away from the giant hooved

 

wall and looked up starting from the bottom of the hoove to the top and he saw strands of fur

 

above the giant wall so he continued from the furry part near the giant wall and his eyes raised

 

as he backs his head all the way he nearly broke his spine from backing his head back his eyes

 

raised all the way when he noticed that he was looking at Buck he screamed in terror because

 

his wish came true and also he was scared to death because he just realized that how tiny he

 

was and how big Buck was and that he was stuck at his tiny size he continued screaming to

 

Bucks point of view the screams were squeeky and high pitched Buck could just about hear the

 

tiny high pitched screams coming from below him Bucks ears were sensitive so he looked down

 

and lowerd his head all the way down it felt like it got a whole lot darker in Chris's point of view

 

so he looked up but couldn't see much because of the tall grass standing over him but then all

 

of a sudden Buck started blowing huge gusts of air out his nose and it caused the grass to

 

move violently the giant gusts of air nearly blew Chris away from above Chris the blades of

 

grass were swaying from the left to the right then Chris could see from beyond the giant blades

 

of grass and saw the giant nostrils of his giant horse Buck the only thing he could notice were

 

the big hairs in his nose swaying from the giant blowy gusts Chris was pined to the floor not

 

being able to move but his concern was what would be Bucks next move suddenly the giant

 

gusts of air stopped Chris slowly opend his eyes his eyes couldn't bare the giant gusts then he

 

looked in horror as Buck but his mouth down to the grass wide open Chris thought that he

 

would end up getting eaten by Buck but instead Buck grabed a huge clump of grass Chris saw

 

the giant blades of grass tear around him the tearing was loud compared to Chris then the giant

 

blades raised up and into Bucks mouth he started chewing on the grass Chris looked up and

 

started hearing the giant chewing sounds and the sloppyness as he was eating and chewing the

 

grass Chris coverd his ears from the chewing sounds then rains of slobber ran down on to the

 

ground around Chris he screamed and ran deep into the grass but the screaming got Buck all

 

curious just as Chris was running through the massive patch of grass that was eaten by Buck

 

Buck got a quick glimps of Chris and stopped his chewing lowerd his head down to Chris then

 

he realized he kicked his back legs in excitement and nodded his head three times as to say that

 

he was excited that Chris is actually having an adventure but after those three nods he looked

 

again and noticed that Chris disappeard Chris ran deeper into the grassy jungle untill he hit

 

something hard he got his head back into gear looked up and noticed the giant fence post so

 

decided to climb up just to get his bareings the climb took forever untill finaly he made it to the

 

top he looked all around and realized how far his house was what was he to do he couldn't fly or

 

run that fast it'd take more then a week to get back to the house at his stature so he continued

 

to look around this is what he wished now he regrets it he looked over and saw Buck at the

 

same place where he woke up Buck turned his head and ran to Chris's direction Chris was once

 

again in panic as Buck ran past the post but stoped he then began rubbing his rump against the

 

post causing the post to wobble Chris felt like he was going to loose balance and fall off he

 

began to scream in horror as he was watching Bucks giant rump rub onto the post Chris had

 

the idea of jumping off the post onto Bucks rump but he didn't have the gut to do so he was just

 

about to fall and he gave a big squeeky scream Bucks ears began to twitch he stoped rubbing

 

turned around and got a close look at the post only to notice a tiny being on the post he looked

 

even closer and nodded his head two times in excitement Chris said in a nervious way "h.hey

 

buck it's me" Buck then raised his head over to Chris untill Chris was looking into Bucks

 

nostrils Chris backed away waving his arms in the air screaming "no Buck don't ok don't think

 

about it" all of a sudden Buck began the giant snorts big huge gusts of air his Chris so he lied

 

down and held on for his life onto the post but then all of a sudden Buck started to inhale Chris

 

was then getting sucked towards Bucks nose he held on for his life once again he felt like he

 

was being pushed back he turned his head and saw the huge inhaleing nose and the hairs in his

 

nose moving around Chris started to loose his grip he was being pushed back with alot of force

 

his finger nails started scratching as he was moving towards the giant nose then the inhaleing

 

was getting stronger untill Chris couldn't bare it anymore he moved one hand as it was getting

 

burns from holding on to much then he lost his entire grip with his other hand and ended up

 

being sucked further on into the nose he screamed for his life "NOOOO BUCK PLEASE

 

STOPPPP!!!" he screamed as he was at the end of the post he slipped off and flew right into

 

Bucks nose untill there was nothing left on the post Buck lowerd his head down and noticed

 

that Chris had disappeard again Chris was inside Bucks nose looking outside he could see the

 

post then he could see Buck licking at the post Chris watched in horror thinking that it could of

 

been him on the post he could of licked then Buck turned his head and trotted off into the

 

stables trotted to a wall and he began to relax untill he gave the biggest sneeze ever Chris was

 

blasted from Bucks nose like a man in a cannon and ended up hitting the wall Buck was faceing

 

Chris was in eww when he noticed his situation he then noticed Buck looking directly at him "oh

 

hey Buck...p.p.please help me please" Bucks ears started to twitch he could hear what Chris

 

was saying he nodded three times gave a small smile with his slimy tounge sticking half way out

 

like a panting dog Chris opend his eyes wide in horror after realizing that the look he was giving

 

meant that a few times Chris lied on the grass relexing Buck would make that look sticking his

 

tounge half way out and giving him a lick Chris then screamed in panic after he realized this

 

"NO BUCK NO DON'T THINK ABOUT IT OK NO KISSES OK THIS ISN'T THE RIGHT TIME!!!" but

 

Buck wouldn't listen he could hear every word but his love for Chris was strong he thought of

 

Chris as a brother to him but tiny or not Buck would still give him what he needs and that is a

 

kiss Bucks face came closer and closer to Chris he was in panic alot Bucks tongue was an inch

 

close and Chris gave the biggest scream ever as he was licked up off the wall and onto the big

 

slimy wall of tongue but he was sort of glad to be free from the web of snot on the wall he sat up

 

and noticed the giant tounge decending back into the mouth it was all in slow motion Chris was all frozed up couldn't move a muscle all of a sudden the mouth began to close all was dark Chris would be in Bucks mouth untill he gave the final gulp he did ended up gulping neighed kicked his legs in the air and nodded three times in excitement knowing that Chris had the best adventure ever now the adventure would be inside his stomach

The Racecourse Chaplaincy at York Racecourse is perhaps the first and only (so far) of its kind, which this year covered all 17 days of the York racing. It’s truly unique in its provision to both sport and event chaplaincy, thanks to its great combination of lay and ordained members from different churches.

my neighors keep this old car parked in front of their house, so i took a picture then messed with it

martyrdom of Fatima Zahra (SA)

The crowd left towards the house of Hazrat Ali (a.s.). The harbored the intention of burning down the house along with the inhabitants.[1] Ibn Abi Ka’ab reports that we heard the neighing of horses, the clatter of bridles and the clanging of spears. We left our houses. The crowd had already gathered at the house of Hazrat Ali (a.s.).[2] Janabe’ Zahra (s.a.) was standing behind the door. There was a bandage on her head. It was obvious that she had been weakened by the relentless grief for her father[3] – the Holy Prophet (s.a.w.). When she saw the approaching crowd, she shut the door to her house. She was confident that these people would not enter the house without her permission.[4]

 

The people reached the door and knocked on it with great force.[5] They began pushing and pulling at the door violently. They kept on hurling abuses at the inhabitants of the house[6] and insisting that they do the bay’at of Abu Bakr.[7] Umar shouted, “O son of Abu Talib, open the door![8] I swear by Allah that if you do not open the door, I will burn it down.[9] I swear by the One in whose Hands is my life, come out and do bay’at or else I will set this house on fire. O Ali, come out and accept the verdict of the people, or else we will wage war with you.[10]

 

O son of Abu Talib! If you do not come out and pay allegiance to Abu Bakr like the others, I will burn the house down along with its residents.[11]

 

O son of Abu Talib! Open the door or else we will set your house on fire.[12] Step out to do bay’at – pay allegiance to the caliph of the Holy Prophet (s.a.w.) or we shall set fire to your house.[13] O Ali, come out or we shall set this house ablaze.[14]

 

Janabe’ Zahra (s.a.) positioned herself behind the door of the house and reproached him saying, “O deviated people and liars, what are you saying! What is your intention!”

 

Umar replied, “O Fatemah!”

 

Janabe’ Zahra (s.a.): “O Umar, what do you want?”

 

Umar: “What has happened to the son of your uncle? Why has he sent you and remained hidden behind the curtain?”

 

Janabe’ Zahra (s.a.): “O accursed person! I have come out on account of your excesses. I wish to complete my proof upon you and on every deviated person.”

 

Umar: “Leave all this aside. Do not narrate the stories of women and ask Ali to come out.”

 

Janabe’ Zahra (s.a.): “Don’t you have any shame? Do you wish to frighten me with a group from Shaitaan? O Umar, know that the party of Shaitaan is weak!”

 

Umar: “If Ali does not appear, know that I have collected a huge pile of wood and will burn the house along with its inhabitants if he does not do bay’at.”[15]

 

Janabe’ Zahra (s.a.): “O Umar, why don’t you go and let us remain in our own condition?”

 

Umar: “Open the door or else, I will burn it down!”[16]

 

As per another narration, Umar said, “O Fatemah, daughter of the Prophet (s.a.w.)! Send the people gathered in your house outside. Like the other Muslims, they too must submit (give bay’at). Or else, I will set the entire house ablaze.”[17]

 

As per another narration, Umar said, “You too should accept what has been accepted by the community.”[18] In yet another narration, Umar said, “O Fatemah! Why have these people gathered in your house? If they do not given themselves up, I will burn the house down along with its inhabitants.”[19]

 

A fourth narration reports that Umar said to Janabe’ Zahra (s.a.), “Take out the people hidden in your house, or else, I will burn the house down along with its dwellers.”

 

Janabe’ Zahra (s.a.): “Will you burn my children along with my house?”

 

Umar: “Yes! I swear by Allah, (I will do it) if they do not come out and give bay’at.”[20]

 

Janabe’ Zahra (s.a.): “O Ibne Khattab! Will you bear the sight of my burning house?”

 

Umar: “Yes!”[21]

 

Janabe’ Zahra (s.a.): “Woe be upon you! Do you wish to do away with the progeny of the Holy Prophet (s.a.w.)? Do you wish to extinguish the light of Allah? But know that Allah (s.w.t.) will complete His light.”

 

Umar: “Enough has been said, O Fatemah! Keep quiet! Mohammed (s.a.w.) is no longer with us and neither are those angels who bring the revelation and the orders from Allah (s.w.t.). Now there are just us Muslims. If you wish, send out your family members to pay allegiance to Abu Bakr or else, I will burn your house down.”

 

Janabe’ Zahra (s.a.) (while crying): “O Allah! We put forward a complaint to you about the absence of Your Prophet (s.a.w.), Your Messenger and Chosen One! We appeal to You that the ummat gathered in opposition to us. O Lord! Those rights which You revealed in Your book, and through Your Prophet (s.a.w.) ordained for us, the ummat is snatching away those very rights.”

 

Umar: “O Fatemah! Leave aside the behavior of women and do not say such useless things! Allah (s.w.t.) will never grant both messengership (nabuwwat) and leadership (khilafat) in the same house.”[22]

 

Janabe’ Zahra (s.a.): “O Umar! Don’t you have the fear of Allah in your heart that you wish to enter my house and assault me.”

 

Umar stood his ground and refused to budge from there.[23]
