« Ne pouvant faire un palais de la chaumière ou du galetas de chaque famille ouvrière, nous avons voulu mettre la demeure de l’ouvrier dans un palais ; le Familistère, en effet, n’est pas autre chose, c’est le palais du travail, c’est le PALAIS SOCIAL de l’avenir.
Ce qu’il n’est pas possible de faire au profit de familles éparpillées et sans lien, les améliorations qu’on ne peut introduire dans le tohu-bohu des habitations ouvrières, ni à la ville, ni à la campagne, ni dans les caves, ni dans les mansardes habitées ; ce que ne permettent pas même les habitations ouvrières isolées les mieux construites, quel qu’en soit le système : le Familistère le permet, le palais social le rend possible, bien plus, il le rend nécessaire. »
Jean-Baptiste-André Godin La Richesse au service du peuple, le Familistère de Guise. 1875.

JEAN-BAPTISTE GODIN ( ENGLISH )
Jean-Baptiste André Godin (26 January 1817 -29 January 1888) was a French industrialist and social experimentor born on the 26th of January 1817 at Esquéhéries (Aisne).
The son of an artisan, he entered an iron-works at an early age, and at seventeen made a tour of France as journeyman. Returning to Esquéhéries in 1837, he started a small factory for the manufacture of castings for heating-stoves. The business increased rapidly, and for the purpose of railway facilities was transferred to Guise in 1846. At the time of Godin's death in 1888 the annual output was over four millions of francs (4,160,000), and in 1908 the employees numbered over 2000 and the output was over 280,000.
An ardent disciple of Charles Fourier, he advanced a considerable sum of money towards the disastrous Fourierist experiment of V. P. Considerant (q.v.) in Texas (known as La Reunion. He profited, however, by its failure, and in 1859 started the Familistère, or community settlement, of Guise on more carefully laid plans.
The Familistère forms a town within the town of Guise. It comprises, in addition to a large factory, three large buildings, each four stories high, capable of housing all the work-people, each family having two or three rooms. The main building consists of three rectangular blocks joined at the corners. Each of these blocks has a central court covered with a glass roof under which children can play in all weather. There is no church of any sort. (There are, of course, churches within the rest of Guise). At the back of the main block there was a nursery. There is a separate block, known as the "economat", containing various shops, refreshment rooms and recreation rooms of various kinds(?), stores for the purchase of groceries, drapery and every necessity. This has recently (2008) been restored and is now a cafe, a shop selling books, postcards etc and an exhibition area. There were also allotments for the workers.
Opposite the main block there was a building containing a theater for concerts and dramatic entertainments and a primary school. There was also a communal laundry and swimming pool. This was a few years ago derelict but has now been restored. The swimming pool is still a swimming poll but the laundry is a meeting room and the drying room is now (2008) an exhibition room. In 1880 the whole was turned into a co-operative society, with provision by which it eventually became the property of the workers.
Godin manufactured cookers and heating stoves of many kinds mainly made from cast iron castings. Sometimes these were enameled. These are still to be found in use all over France. They can be found for sale on eBay.
This business was still owned by the workers in the 1950s but soon after was taken over by Le Creuset. It is not obvious that the factory is still functioning. It is seems the domestic building were privatised. The state of the domestic buildings was deteriorating but has recently been awarded EU money for it to be restored.
In 1871 Godin was elected deputy for Aisne, but retired in 1876 to devote himself to the management of the Familistère. In 1882 he was created a Knight of the Legion of Honor.
Godin was the author of Solutions sociales (1871); Les Socialistes et les Droits du travail (1874); Mutualité sociale et association du capital et du travail (1880); La Republique du travail et la reforme parlementaire (1889). See Bernardot, Le Familistère de Guise et son fondateur (Paris, 1887); Fischer, Die Familistère Godins (Berlin, 1890); Lestelle, Etude sur le Familistère de Guise (Paris, 1904); D. F. P., Le Familistère illustr, résultals de vingt ans d'association, 1880-1900 (Eng. trans., Twenty-eight years of co-partnership at Guise, by A. Williams, 1908).

The Marmora Mine
Marmora is located between the towns of Madoc and Havelock along highway 7 in Hastings County. The name Marmora is taken from the latin word for "marble".
The area was known for its rich iron content and mining operations began as early as the 1820's to extract and smelt this mineral. Today you will find the remains of the water-powered refinery along the eastern bank of the Crowe River while the northern bank of the Crowe held the richest ore deposits.
At its prime, the area was home to as many as two dozen mines. Perhaps the most successful of the mines was that of the Marmoraton which opened in 1955. The Marmoraton was owned by Bethlehem Steel Mills of New York and exported iron ore pellets.
In 1953, before the Marmoraton could open, engineers first had to blast through 120 feet of limestone before reaching the high grade ore which was underneath. One blasted out, the open pit mine measured approximately 1700 feet by 1200 feet and reached 600 feet deep.
The mine employed some 300 men who worked to fill the 30 to 35 railway cars daily for transport south to Picton port where it was loaded into boats. The mine produced 520,000 tons of pellets anually.
When the mine closed in 1979, it had mined almost 1.3 million tons of iron ore. Over time, underground streams and rainfall have slowly filled two thirds of the mine with water. So much so that it is now officially classified as a lake.

Casa de Campo de Madrid (Spain)
La Casa de Campo fue propiedad histórica de la Corona Española y coto de caza de la realeza. Tras la proclamación de la Segunda República, fue cedida por el Estado al pueblo de Madrid (1 de mayo de 1931), estando desde entonces abierta al público.
En su interior se encuentran situadas diversas instalaciones, como el Parque de Atracciones, el Zoológico, el Teleférico (que conecta la Casa de Campo con el Parque del Oeste, al otro lado del río Manzanares), parte de los recintos feriales de IFEMA (Institución Ferial de Madrid), el pabellón multiusos Madrid Arena, la Venta del Batán (lugar tradicional de encierro de los toros en los días previos a su lidia en la Plaza de Toros de Las Ventas) y diferentes instalaciones deportivas populares.

Port Meadow is a large area of common land to the north and west of Oxford. The meadow is an ancient area of grazing land, still used for horses and cattle, and has never been ploughed. In return for helping to defend the kingdom against the marauding Danes, the Freemen of Oxford were given the 120ha of pasture next to the River Thames by King Alfred, who founded the City in the 10th Century. The Freemen's collective right to graze their animals free of charge was recorded in the Domesday Book in 1086 and has been exercised ever since.
It runs from Jericho to Wolvercote along the east (left) bank of the River Thames, with the railway and the suburb of North Oxford further to the east, and the village of Binsey to the west. It is a typical English floodmeadow and is a favourite area for walking, with easy access from the city of Oxford. At the southern end of the meadow is Fiddler's Island in a loop of the river Thames. In the winter the meadow floods and, if frozen, forms a huge and safe area for skating. In late spring vast areas are carpeted with buttercups. Horses, cattle and geese graze the meadow and many birds can often be seen.

Where are you going
My beautiful friend

Of our mankind
Axes spins so round and round we go
Where we're goin' no one really knows
Here we here we here we here we go
Feel the fire
Way down below
Come on dim the lights
It's party time
Switch on the strobe
Do what you like
Gonna have a ball tonight
Let's have a ball
Down at the Globe
Come on dim the lights
Switch on the strobe
We're gonna have a ball tonight
Down at the Globe
Get up and clean your teeth and have a shave
It's 1 a. m. let's go out to a rave
One more and before we hit that grave
It's harder than a microwave wave
(Chorus)
Come on dim the lights
It's party time
Switch on the strobe
Do what you like
Gonna have a ball tonight
Let's have a ball
Down at the Globe
(Repeat Chorus)
Where's the party officer?
(Repeat Chorus)
Here we go party time break it all down
Where is the failure
Not in this land
But still you try to
Get what you can
You know that it's bad but
If you insist
Here's one more chance now
That you just missed
(Repeat Chorus)
I believe you
I believe you
(Repeat Chorus)
Waking up the global warning way
Nepal cornflakes for my special kay
What's the halth departement got to say
Don't smoke more than 50 fags a day
(Repeat Chorus)
Come on party on down
(Repeat Chorus)
Not there best song, but a fun song
My favourite by these guys (actually the original BAD or Big Audio Dynamite) is the song "Contact"
Helluva dub punk reggae hip hop mix up..very nice fusion..I have always loved fusion is done right...which means treating all parts with the equal amount of respect...

Went out on Himmy Saturday and chose to go along Snake Pass as I knew the Bikerpics photographer would be there taking pictures of all the bikes and cars and cycles.
Out of the six pictures they took, I chose two to buy.
Here is one of them.!
Nice to get a picture of me on Himmy for a change!
But boy is that bike mucky!!
Here's one they took of me with Navi a few years ago!!

Gomphosphaeria aponina es una cianobacteria de corazones verdes, así está hecha y de este modo forma pequeñas colonias esféricas protegidas todas por una envuelta gelatinosa. A pesar de su sencillez y su simplicidad también las cianobacterias pueden dar lugar a formas relativamente complejas y hermosas. Hace poco tuvimos ocasión de comprobarlo en el común Nostoc y hoy la no tan común Gomphosphaeria nos muestra su esfera de corazones.
Gomphosphaeria aponina forma parte de la flora acuática que habita en las aguas salinas del litoral. Pedro González Guerrero la citó en los Anales del Jardín Botánico, en la década de 1940, haciendo referencia a los hallazgos que de esta especie hizo en las salinas de Cádiz. En ellas, esta pequeña especie junto con otro reducido grupo de algas y cianobacterias es capaz de soportar condiciones extremas de salinidad.
La colonia que mostramos aquí, procede de un excepcional enclave que merece la pena ser protegido y que afortunadamente se ha salvado de la destrucción generada por la edificación indiscriminada en zonas de costa: el marjal de Peñíscola. Detrás de los edificios situados en primera línea de playa de esta localidad se extiende una pequeña zona de lagunas salinas que constituyen un auténtico tesoro de biodiversidad y que entre otras especies de peces, alberga a la mayor población mundial de Samaruc, Valencia hispanica y es una de las últimas reservas del Fartet , Aphanius iberus además de diversos tipos de especies de aves, así como la única reserva europea del caracol Melanoides tuberculata .
A todas esas joyas de nuestra fauna se suma esta otra diminuta de nuestra flora Gomphosphaeria aponina . Deberán todas ellas resistir como la magnífica fortaleza que el Papa Luna hizo construir en esta localidad.
El género Gomphosphaeria comprende menos de una decena de especies y pueden vivir en lagunas y cursos fluviales de diferente naturaleza. Alguna de ellas, sin quererlo, sembró el pánico en las aguas cristalinas del río Razón, junto a la localidad Soriana de Espejo de Tera…sus aguas se tiñeron de una tonalidad rojiza… se pensó en un vertido ilegal, pero acercándose a las gotas de agua de este curso del río se comprobó que todo eran esferas de ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ que Gomphosphaeria sembró.
La pequeña colonia de Gomphosphaeria aponina vino con unas muestras recogidas hace semanas en el Marjal de Peníscola y ha sido fotografiada con 400 aumentos empleando la técnica de contraste de interferencia.

'and you run and you run to catch up with the sun, but its sinking;
and racing around to come up behind you again.
the sun is the same in the relative way, but youre older;
shorter of breath and one day closer to death.
every year is getting shorter, never seem to find the time;
plans that either come to naught or half a page of scribbled lines.
hanging on in quiet desperation is the english way;
the time is gone, the song is over, thought Id something more to say.'

OK I have to tell you the story of the Barbies. Y'all know My 100 possibilities project is a Barbie. Well I am always on the lookout for clothes, props etc. I saw these 2 Top Model Barbies with extra outfits, shoes, and stands for 9.99 each at Food Lion. And since they are Model Muse Barbies. (Better posers) I grabbed 2 and proceeded to the checkout with my groceries. The checker asked who the Barbies were for, IDK why I did it people, but I lied and said they were for my nieces, thinking that would be the end of it. OH NO! Not to happen. Next comes the interrogation! How old are your Nieces? Where do they live?, Do they go tho School with so-n-so?, Do they watch Top Model?... OMG I wanted to shrink!
The moral of the story is, Dont Do It People.... One lie leads to another and another and another....;-)
I Thought it was Damn funny. It woulda been so much easier to explain the whole 100 possibilities project!

LA VALLE DELL'ORCO
ll cadavere che viene trovato impiccato a una trave è quello di Aldo Manfredini, medico in trasferta in una piccola contrada sperduta tra i monti vicentini. Carlo Zampieri, amico fraterno di Aldo e suo erede universale, raggiunge contrada Brunelli per conoscere il piccolo mondo che aveva spinto il suo amico a lasciare tutto per cominciare una nuova vita. E il mondo che scopre è fatto di paesaggi bellissimi, di pace, silenzio, bicchieri di vino e leggende raccontate attorno al fuoco. Ma anche di vecchie filastrocche cimbre sussurrate tra i boschi, di indebite appropriazioni terriere, di morti troppo strane per essere considerate accidentali. Grazie ad archivi polverosi, ad antiche mappe e all'aiuto di un vecchio parroco, il protagonista porterà alla luce una scia di sangue che si protrae da secoli e che sembra impossibile arrestare.
.........................................................................
L'ULTIMA ANGUANA
È il 22 giugno del 1968, e una lieve scossa di terremoto provoca il crollo di un antico mulino. Fra le sue macerie vengono rinvenuti casualmente tre scheletri. Dalla raccapricciante scoperta, parte l'indagine del maresciallo Baldelli, ex comandante della locale stazione dei carabinieri, che viene richiamato urgentemente dalla Calabria per investigare. Per dipanare il filo che unisce la macabra scoperta con i misteriosi avvenimenti del passato a cui sembrano connessi, Baldelli dovrà ripercorrere con la memoria l'estate del '56. Allora era un giovane brigadiere pieno di belle speranze e per far luce su una drammatica vicenda, si avvalse dell'aiuto di un estemporaneo cappellano che insegnava latino al liceo del capoluogo.
Quell'anno, tre fratellini di Vicenza, Vito, Marilù e Pino, stavano trascorrendo le loro vacanze estive lassù in montagna, ospiti di una solida e vigorosa signorina che li accudiva con un piglio da governante teutonica: d'improvviso, l'atmosfera bucolica dei loro passatempi infantili si fece cupa e minacciosa. La valle, i boschi ed i monti, che agli occhi dei bambini parevano magici e fatati, si riempirono di presenze malefiche e rivelarono tracce di esseri ostili. Erano i segni inequivocabili delle Anguàne, le mitiche ed ambigue ninfe delle fonti. In quelle avventurose vacanze i giochi infantili si fecero via via più imprudenti mettendo inconsapevolmente allo scoperto i segni di un passato inquietante… La vacanza dei bambini verrà interrotta in maniera repentina ed imprevista.Toccherà a Baldelli ricostruire le tante verità nascoste, ripercorrendo a ritroso gli aspetti più sinistri della storia della contrada e dei suoi abitanti.
This is a well fortified nest of a Loggerhead turtle near where I was staying this weekend. There has been much debate over the past couple of years between predator/prey...at one point 'environmentalists' were suggesting culling the island foxes in order to help save the turtles.
During nesting season, almost always after dark, the mother loggerhead (about 30 - 40 inches wide, 200 - 300 pounds) lumbers up from the surf. Current research suggests that the texture of the sand and the ground temperature both play a part in the selection of the nest site. Unusual sounds or lights can scare her away from the chosen beach. If the female returns to the water without laying eggs, it is called a "false crawl." When the female is ready to lay, she will begin to dig the nest with her hind flippers while she faces away from the water. She will throw sand back and forth with her enormous flippers, digging a hole about 18" deep near the base of the sand dunes and above the high tide line. If she lays the nest too close to the water where it will be in danger, it will be relocated by volunteers in order to increase the probability of hatching. When she completes the clutch, laying about 100 - 120 ping-pong size eggs, she urinates on each side of the cavity which allows her t o shape and pack the sand. Again using her flippers, she pulls sand over the eggs and then uses the weight of her body to pack the sand. When finished it will be difficult to perceive exactly where the eggs are located. She will then return slowly to the ocean, having been on the beach about an hour and a half. Volunteers check the beach sand for the tell-tale crawl tracks, locate the eggs, and begin the process of protecting the nest. The turtle hatchlings emerge between 55 and 70 days later. Both nesting and hatching take place under the protection of the night sky. When baby turtles emerge from their nests they are drawn to light (moonlight and phosphorescence from the sea). Street lights, house lights and flashlights seem to disorient them so they wander and become victims of ghost crabs. This is why our volunteers hand out red covers for your flashlights! Once in the water, the hatchlings head for seaweed and sea grasses to hide and to find food. High mortality rates for young turtles are due to predation by ghost crabs, foxes on our beach, seagulls, blue fish, sharks, and fishing nets. Out of 1000 hatchlings, only about ONE will survive to become an adult. After 25-30 years it is believed those females that survive will return to Caswell Beach as laying adults. During their development they will travel thousands of miles at sea, making it difficult to track their full life history from hatching to maturity. [from Caswell Beach Turtle Watch website]
Town of Caswell Beach - Turtle Nest Signs
To prevent fox and raccoon predation of our turtle nests habanero pepper powder is being placed around each nest on the beach. Habanero pepper powder is very hot and irritating to the skin. Turtles and hatchlings are not susceptible to the irritation caused by habanero pepper, but humans and mammals are. Foxes, raccoons dogs and people that dig into a protected turtle nest will come in contact with the RED HABANERO PEPPER POWDER which will cause a very strong burning irritation to their skin.

Lee was born in Seoul, Korea in 1960. He attended Sunhwa Art High School and received a B.F.A. in Sumi-e painting and drawing from HongIk, University, Seoul, and an M.F.A. from the National University of Tokyo Arts and Sciences, Japan.
Lee was active in the resistance movement during the reign of South Korean military dictator President Park and lost many friends during the reign of terror leading up to Park's assassination in 1979. Lee immigrated to Japan in 1988, where he would spend the next ten years establishing himself as a leading contemporary artist.
Lee has been featured in group and solo shows throughout museums and galleries in Japan and Korea, including the Tokyo Metropolitan Art Museum and the Kawasaki City Museum. Since moving to New York in 1999, he has exhibited at the Sonoma Museum of Visual Arts, CA, the Hammond Museum, NY, the Korean Embassy, Washington, DC, the Japan American Art Association at the Tenri Gallery, NY, the International Art Festival Lantern of the East, Los Angeles, CA, and more.
Lee has lectured in Japanese and Korean universities on "Oriental Sensation and Neo-postmodernism" and "Contemporary Visual Art and Psychology." He is a tenured instructor of Sumi-e, oil painting and drawing at the Nakano Art Center, Japan, and currently teaches Sumi-e painting at the National Jewish Council Center, NY. He is a member of the New Century Artists, NY, the Japanese Artists Association, NY, the Korean Japanese Exchange Art Association, Tokyo, and the Japan International Art Group, Tokyo.
About the work
Jongwang Lee's massive, liquid paintings, rendered with a complex and precise mixture of resin, oil paint and pigments, express the artist's quest for a balance between the spiritual and the physical worlds. Examining the proverbial return to the womb, Lee paints human forms that float in a watery substance and inhabit a world before time.
Ironically, Lee's spiritual quest has resulted in a series of sculptural paintings that evoke opulent, overgrown gemstones. One has the illusion of gazing deep into a cross-section of colored and decorated amber, peering into the past through layers of time.
While Lee's recent work has a contemporary Pop Art sensibility-with its day glow colors and bold compositions-his influences are drawn from 5,000 years of Korean history. "My work is Oriental. I am influenced by Korean Sumi-e brush painting and Eastern philosophies, as well as by my experiences in the West," says the artist.
Lee begins each painting with an underpinning of a linear web. The lines act as a link to another place, bridging spiritual and earthly realms. Next, he layers the temperamental resin mixture with additional layers. The resin dries at various times, depending on the thickness of the paint mixture and how it is applied.
"I have wrestled with this devilish resin for nearly 20 years," says Lee. "After many experiments and many failings, I now know how to negotiate it."
Artist Statement
My artwork is a visualization of man's alienation from his soul in this highly materialistic, technological society.
My paintings are infused with symbolism drawn from 5,000 years of Korean history. In the past, Shamans used several kinds of rope placed around the ceremonial area to communicate with the soul world. The linear elements in my paintings echo the role of the Shaman's ropes. They are a connection between the spirit world and reality. On another level, they represent a connection between people.
My grandmother was a famous Shaman in Korea. During my childhood I was deeply impacted by her performances and felt a strong contact with the spiritual world. This early experience has been an important source of inspiration for my art. Eastern philosophies and Western experiences have deeply influenced my work.
For six years I studied traditional Korean Sumi-e painting, learning from the old masters. Before that time, I had already begun to develop new techniques, experimenting with both oriental and western materials. Using a palette knife, a trowel and other less conventional tools, I have created my own original art form.
Moving to the US has felt like a rebirth for me. I believe many immigrants feel like this when they come to a new country, On one hand, I want to retreat to the familiar, safe, comfortable place of my own history and birth country, akin to returning to the womb. But, at the same time, I want to be reborn, in a sense, to enjoy the freedom and the cultural and political climate of the US.
I hope that my work encourages people to look within themselves and realize the unbelievable power of life and the dormant potential within each of us.

Sunrise time is the most magical moment in the entire day. Its when silence pervails, and life begins quietly, yet surely at the crack of dawn.
Here in Vedanthangal, the birds not only seem in paradise because of the eco-system that has been created for them, but also becuase the sun beautifully lights up their world.
Wonderful start to the new week my friends.

I SHOOT IT AT GANGASAGAR MELA(FAIR).
Gangasagar Mela is the largest fair celebrated in West Bengal(INDIA). This fair is held where the Ganga and the Bay of Bengal form a nexus. Hence the name Gangasagar Mela. This festival is celebrated during January every year and is a major attraction for millions of piligrams from all over India.
The pilgrims come for a holy dip on Makar Sankranti (last day of the Bengali Month) Negha -Mid January. They take dips in the Ganges and offer water to the Sun God. The dip, as they say, purifies their 'self' and according to them, 'punya' can be obtained thus. When they are done with the ritual obligations, they head towards the Kapilmuni Temple situated nearby, to worship the deity as a mark of respect.
In every year in the time of fair,some poor local people temporarily build up a tent with plastic & bamboo to beg with their child from the men who came here to obtain "punya" (accumulate of religious merits).

The Komodo dragon (Varanus komodoensis) is a species of lizard that inhabits the islands of Komodo, Rinca, Flores, Gili Motang, and Gili Dasami, in central Indonesia. A member of the monitor lizard family (Varanidae), it is the largest living species of lizard, growing to an average length of 2–3 meters (approximately 6.5–10 ft) and weighing around 70 kilograms (154 lb). Their unusual size is attributed to island gigantism, since there are no other carnivorous mammals to fill the niche on the islands where they live, and also to the Komodo dragon's low metabolic rate. As a result of their size, these lizards are apex predators, dominating the ecosystems in which they live. Although Komodo dragons eat mostly carrion, they will also hunt and ambush prey including invertebrates, birds, and mammals.
Komodo dragons possess virulent bacteria in their saliva, of which more than 28 Gram-negative and 29 Gram-positive strains have been isolated. These bacteria cause septicemia in their victim; if an initial bite does not kill the prey animal and it escapes, it will commonly succumb within a week to the resulting infection. The deadliest bacteria in Komodo dragon saliva appears to be a very deadly strain of Pasteurella multocida, from studies performed with lab mice. Because the Komodo dragon appears immune to its own microbes, much research has been done searching for the antibacterial molecule in the hopes of human medicinal use.

El Dragón de Komodo (Varanus komodoensis) es el saurio de mayor tamaño en el mundo, pudiendo llegar a alcanzar una longitud de tres metros y un peso entre 80 y 140 Kg. Es un miembro de la familia Varanidae que habita en diversas islas de Indonesia.
Este animal es un reptil carroñero que, para matar, no tiene que atrapar a su presa, sino que basta con que la muerda una vez. Su saliva tiene hasta 82 tipos diferentes de bacterias que provocan una septicemia en su presa, que muere a las pocas horas. La bacteria más mortífera de la saliva del dragón de Komodo parece ser una cepa de Pasteurella multocida, según estudios en ratones de laboratorio. Dado que el dragón de Komodo parece ser inmune a sus propios microbios, se han iniciado investigaciones en busca de la molécula antibacteriana para uso médico en humanos.
Este dragón es el animal más grande que habita en la isla, por lo tanto, su único enemigo es otro dragón.
Generalmente se movilizan en grupos de 2 a 10 dragones.
Está emparentado con los mosasaurios, un tipo de reptiles marinos que vivieron hace 136 millones de años y que llegaban a medir hasta 17 metros de longitud.

The birth of a Francis Henry H Brine was recorded in the Blything District that then covered Southwold, in the January to March 1907 quarter.
The marriage of a Francis H H Brine to a Joan M Brace took place in the East Glamorgan District of Glamorganshire in the October to December 1939 quarter.
Operation Supercharge, the final phase of the Second Battle of El Alamein, had opened on the 2nd November, and although it was a battle mainly of attrition, it was the Allies, closer to the supply bases, who could afford to endure.
A feel for what the battalion had gone through can be gathered from this article. Like the soldier that it is about. Francis could possibly have been wounded in the same action on the 24th October but may not have been so lucky.

There doesn’t appear to be a likely match for an Alfred Edward in the GRO index of births for the likely age range for him to have been serving in 1940. There is an Alfred Louis, who’s birth was registered in the Mutford District of Suffolk in the July to September quarter of 1902 as well as an Ernest Alfred who’s birth was recorded in the Ipswich District in the April to June 1903 quarter.
HMS Acheron (Lt. J.R. Wilson, RN) was mined off the Isle of Wright on 17 December 1940. She was running trials after completing repairs following the bomb damage sustained on 24 August. The trial was being conducted at night, with heavy seas running and a strong NE wind in complete darkness.
During one of the passes on the measured mile, 8 nm WSW of St. Catherine's Point, Isle of Wight,she struck a mine towards the bows, her own speed driving her under; she sank within 4 minutes, killing 196 crewmen and yard workers on board for the trials, only 19 survived. The mine is believed to have been one of those laid by the Luftwaffe in no definite pattern along the Channel coast. The wreck lies in 48 meters of water in position 50.32N, 01.26W.

The birth of a Frederick Charles William Howard was recorded in the Sudbury District of Suffolk in the April to June 1918 quarter. His mothers maiden name was Mansfield.
The marriage of William “Lee” Howard to Edith Elizabeth Mansfield was recorded in the Sudbury District of Suffolk in the April to June 1908 quarter.
From the Suffolk Free Press January 9th 1941
Much sympathy has been shown to Mr and Mrs Howard of Belchamp Otten who have received recent information that their son Gunner Frederick Howard was killed in action in the Western Desert on December 5th 1940 He joined the army in 1937 prior to that he worked at Bevington farms for C.Wjittome, he was 22.
www.foxearth.org.uk/1940-1941SuffolkFreePress.html
The Regiment was formed as 4th Regiment Royal Horse Artillery (RHA) at Helmieh, Egypt in May 1939. The original Batteries were C Battery, F (Sphinx) Battery, and G Battery (Mercers Troop), drawn from independent commands in India and equipped with the Ordnance QF 25 pounder.
Shortly after the outbreak of war in September 1939 the Regiment moved to Mersa Matruh in early 1940. 4th RHA fired the opening rounds of the campaign in North Africa against the Italians at Sidi Barrani on 8 December 1940. As part of the newly formed 7th Armoured Division, 4th RHA advanced westwards across the desert, seeing action again in January 1941 at Bardia, the capture of Tobruk, and at Beda Fomm.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/4th_Regiment_Royal_Artillery
While the rest of the Division and the Australians prepared to attack Bardia, 4th Armoured Brigade, attacked the by-passed Italian camp as Sidi Omar on 16th December 1940. 2nd RTR lead the attack from the west, with good artillery support by 4 RHA, and soon broke through the perimeter, in tactics not dissimilar to a Napoleonic cavalry charge. 7th Hussars and 'B' Squadron, 3rd Hussars soon joined in, with the battle lasting just 10 minutes. The Italian Fascist gunners, with their guns sited on the east of the position (to face where any assault was most likely) fired to little avail, while under bombardment from two batteries of 4 RHA the main attack had come in from the west and south. 900 Italian prisoners were taken with 50 being killed

SIMPSON M.B.E D W David William Simpson Master Merchant Navy SS Empire Merlin (London). Son of David and Harriet Simpson; husband of Margaret Taylor Simpson, of Beccles, Suffolk. Awarded Lloyd's Medal in 1914-1918 War. Commemorated Tower Hill Memorial. (GWF)

At 02.45 hours on 25 Aug, 1940, U-48 attacked the convoy HX-65A 90 miles east by north of Flannan Isles and sank the Athelcrest and Empire Merlin.
The Empire Merlin (Master David W. Simpson MBE) sank in 35 seconds. The master, 33 crew members and one gunner were lost. The sole survivor ordinary seaman John Lee was picked up by the British corvette HMS Godetia (K 72) (LtCdr G.V. Lagassisk) and landed at Methil.

Captain Simpson is today remembered by a memorial plaque outside Southwold’s Sailor’s Reading Room.He was apparently aged 70.
intheboatshed.net/2010/04/22/a-southwold-memorial-explained/
There is a number of occurrences on the net of Master Simpson as neing the Skipper of SS Wandy, a merchantman which had attacked and sunk a German U-boat in WW1, (and for which presumably he got his MBE). However, there do not appear to be any other references to SS Wandy or any likely incident which led to the sinking off a U-boat. I also couldn’t find any mention of the award of the OBE in the London Gazette.
PARKE D A Donald Arthur Parke 1472604 Sergeant (Pilot) Royal Air Force Volunteer Reserve. Son of Edward Gaymer Parke and Beatrice May Parke, of Southwold, Suffolk. Died 3rd April 1944 aged 22. Buried Alexandria (Hadra) War Memorial Cemetery Grave 6.B.10. (GWF)

There doesn’t appear to be an obvious match for Donald in the official Casualty Communiques, as published in Flight Magazine.
Donald is the only member of the RAF recorded on the memorial for this date.
During the Second World War, Alexandria was again an important hospital centre, taking casualties from campaigns in the Western Desert, Greece, Crete, the Aegean Islands and the Mediterranean. Rest camps and hostels were also established there together with a powerful anti-aircraft base. Alexandria was also the communications centre for the middle and near east and became the headquarters of the Military Police. The cemetery at Hadra was extended for Second World War burials and was used from 1941.

It's the end of the year and OAD (aka Steve) posted this cool little piece that features the best meals of 2008 (and restaurants with potential) from a questionnaire sent out to some pretty well known chefs (at least ones that have made the 2007 OAD guide), food critics, notable food bloggers/destination diners, food scientists like Dr. This, and then... little ol' food enthusiast me. (humble *blush, blush*)
Granted my meal at Ristorante dal Pescatore was in the latter part of last year, it's impact still struck me until now (truth be told I was asked what my best meal was in the past year - which I interpreted as being full year, not just calender). Anyway, the mention of many Northern Europe (and a few American and Asian) restaurants has me mentally noting these establishments in the event I might have the fortune of visiting those areas. This is part one of two. :)
"Best Meals of 2008
‘Tis the time of year for lists. After racking my brain to try and figure out what type of list people might like to read, I came up with the following idea. I sent out an email to an an assortment of chefs, food writers, restaurant owners and bloggers and I asked them the following questions:
1. Name the best meal that you had in 2008
2. Name the new chef or restaurant who showed the most potential in 2008
Their answers were quite illuminating. Or at least I thought they were. What I learned was that fine dining in Northern Europe is steadily improving and both chefs and diners are now traveling to countries like Germany, Austria, Holland and Denmark just to sample the restaurants. And Tokyo, because of the new Michelin Guide, is another city that is starting to become popular with Western diners. Let’s see if the same dynamic occurs in Hong Kong and Macau now that Michelin has published a guide to those cities as well. But I think the most important thing I learned is that there isn’t all that much difference between what the pros like and what the foodies like, and as you run down the list, you will see that they each cite many of the same places. Anyway enough of me talking about what they told me, you can read it for yourself. Enjoy!

confesso: sono un fotografo pigro. se avessi utilizzato il cavalletto questa foto probabilmente sarebbe stata migliore.
I confess: i'm a lazy photographer. if I used the stand this photo probably would have been better.
yes yes yes, i know this is cliche. but i thought it kind of fit with the last upload.
and i know, this really isn't what i usually take.
seriously - this is not worth viewing IF you don't view here!
the most embarrassing thing just happened, i was downstairs in the kitchen and i poured a drink and then whilst i was drinking, i started dancing really stupidly - in front of the window, and when i put my glass down, an elderly couple were stopped, watching me through the glass. i stopped dancing - obviously, and with no expression they turned and continued walking!

Habillages de Manneken Pis / Aankledingen van Manneken Pis
Avril 2009 April
à l' occasion de la première apparition dans le journal "Spirou" en 1938.
Ter gelegenheid van de eerste verschijning van het stripfiguurtje in 1938.
Manneken Pis is een standbeeldje in het centrum van Brussel en stelt een plassend jongetje voor. Het 58 cm grote ventje op een sokkel is geplaatst op de hoek van de Stoofstraat en de Eikstraat, niet ver van de Grote Markt. Het betreft een bronzen beeldje dat Hiëronymus Duquesnoy in 1619 in opdracht van het stadsbestuur heeft gemaakt als versiering van een publieke fontein waarbij het lijkt alsof het jongetje urineert. Bij speciale gelegenheden plast hij bier of wijn in plaats van water.
Manneken Pis is wereldberoemd vanwege zijn guitige uiterlijk en de legenden die om zijn persoon werden geweven. De bekendste legende verhaalt over een jongetje dat de stad gered had door vlammen of een brandende lont te blussen door erop te plassen.

Manneken Pis (Dutch for little man urinating), also known in French as the petit Julien, is a famous Brussels landmark. It is a small bronze fountain sculpture depicting a naked little boy urinating into the fountain's basin. "Manneken Pis" is prounounced "mahn-ekuh pees."
Het beeldje werd reeds meerdere malen van zijn voetstuk gehaald door vandalen en grappenmakers. Zo bijvoorbeeld op 26 juni 1817, toen in een krant volgend gedichtje tot troost van de verbijsterde Brusselaars werd gepubliceerd:
Ey lieve meisjes! Staakt geschrei
Al koomt gy door dees dievery
een zoeten troost te missen;
hij zal met nerstig onderzoek
nog wel eens koomen uit den hoek
om zonder schroom te pissen.

Amigos/as:
La campaña contra el ingreso en prisión y la criminalización de los manteros atraviesa un momento crítico. Por eso, de forma urgente hemos elaborado este manifiesto en el que se os informa de la situación y se os invita a suscribirlo en concepto de asociación/colectivo social. Os quedaríamos muy agradecidos si le pudierais dar la máxima difusión. La urgencia es máxima, pues el próximo lunes entregaremos el manifiesto con las firmas que hasta entonces hayamos recogido.
Si deseáis adheriros podéis mandad un correo a manteros@inmigrapenal.com indicando el nombre del colectivo y los datos de quien realiza la adhesión.
Muchísimas gracias por vuestra ayuda.
Las asociaciones y colectivos del tejido social abajo firmantes queremos poner de manifiesto a la opinión pública:
I.- Hace unos meses constatábamos con perplejidad que más de medio millar de personas han sido encarceladas en el Estado por la mera circunstancia de exhibir y vender CD pirata. Detectamos entonces penas sorprendentes de prisión de hasta dos años y más: había “manteros” que veían prolongada su permanencia en prisión por no poder hacer frente a las magras responsabilidades civiles a las que se les condenaba y a las multas que se les imponían.
II.- De la mano de artistas, profesionales del Derecho, movimientos sociales y de los propios afectados iniciamos una Campaña con el objeto de eliminar del Código Penal la prisión para un tipo de comportamiento concreto movido por la necesidad de supervivencia que tiene mejor acomodo en el derecho administrativo sancionador. No se trata de legalizar el top-manta sino de perseguirlo por otros medios que no sean el encarcelamiento.
III.- Al mismo tiempo que apoyábamos indultos para las personas presas por esta causa y abonábamos multas y responsabilidades civiles para lograr la pronta excarcelación de los que peor lo pasaban, conectamos con los diferentes grupos parlamentarios y les hicimos partícipes de nuestro intento de proponer la modificación del Código Penal que avalamos con dictámenes jurídicos que fueron respaldados por numerosos profesores universitarios, juristas y ciudadanos en general.
IV.- El top manta no es la infracción que más gravemente perjudica al derecho de propiedad intelectual de los artistas; las mayores agresiones vienen de otros campos. Por otro lado, el propio legislador reconoce en el Preámbulo de la Ley que la reforma del año 2003 supuso una quiebra de la proporcionalidad respecto a la venta a pequeña escala y que los autores son personas en situación de necesidad y de pobreza, que sólo aspiran a alcanzar mínimos ingresos de subsistencia; se trata de personas que tienen prohibido legalmente ganarse la vida con un contrato legal que tratan de sobrevivir con los escasos ingresos de una actividad, ilegal, sí, pero de escaso daño social.
V.- Reconocemos que la mayoría de los grupos parlamentarios del Congreso han escuchado nuestras razones y que, aunque el texto aprobado por el Congreso no garantiza que por conductas tan nimias como la del “mantero” se meta en prisión a un ciudadano, dicha redacción supone una mejora respecto a la situación actual. Sin embargo, existe el peligro cierto de que estos avances se pierdan en el Senado. A consecuencia de la presión de las Sociedades Gestoras de los Derechos de Autor, Convergencia i Unio y el Grupo Parlamentario Popular han introducido una enmienda en el Senado de características represivas que supondría un gran retroceso. Se argumenta que tratar como falta los supuestos más nimios (cuando el beneficio no excede de 400 euros) constituye “un absoluto desarme procesal y policial”. Esta afirmación, inspirada sin duda por los intereses de las empresas de gestión de derechos de autor y de la propiedad industrial, además de mostrar una cruel insensibilidad acerca de la situación de extremada precariedad de las personas que practican el top-manta, es rotundamente falsa. En efecto, en la redacción emanada del Congreso sigue existiendo protección penal plena para la propiedad intelectual e industrial; la consideración de falta de algunos supuestos (por debajo de 400 euros) no constituye un desarme penal ni procesal, ni mucho menos policial, pues hay todo un Libro del Código Penal dedicado a las faltas que está siendo aplicado. Incluso en el supuesto que seguimos defendiendo, de que no se considerasen ilícito penal los supuestos con beneficio por debajo de los 400 euros, la diligencia persecutoria policial se seguiría desplegando en el ámbito administrativo sancionador, como podemos comprobar los ciudadanos en otros ámbitos (por ejemplo, las infracciones a las normas de circulación). Por eso, nos parece un despropósito derrochar recursos del sistema penal y policial en perseguir estas conductas para sobreproteger intereses de poderosos grupos de presión.
VI.- Por consiguiente, urgimos a los Sres. y Sras. Senadores/as para que no se dejen presionar por los intereses de empresas de gestión que perfectamente pueden hacer valer sus derechos de un modo más justo, proporcionado y, desde luego, generando menos sufrimiento estéril, asumiendo la reforma aprobada por el Congreso de los Diputados o, mejor aún, aprobando la efectiva desincriminación de las conductas más irrelevantes pues su despenalización no significa su legalización, ni que dichas conductas se vayan a incrementar, pues el simple comiso de sus pobres mercancías supone una gravísima consecuencia para estas personas, además de la posibilidad de ser detenido y expulsado por carecer de residencia legal. No es tanto lo que les pedimos: el Derecho penal de un Estado social no debería utilizarse para criminalizar la pobreza de una forma tan injusta como evidente.

L'antic municipi de Vulpellac tenia, abans de l'annexió de Fonteta i Peratallada, 4,29 quilòmetres quadrats d'extensió. El terme comprèn una zona aturonada, a ponent i al NW amb el punt més elevat al puig Negre (109 m. d'alt), que forma part de la serra de Sant Ramon, límit amb el terme veí de La Bisbal d'Empordà. La part restant del terme és plana i drenada per la riera de Fonteta, de la conca del Daró, que devalla de les Gavarres. La carretera de Palamós a Girona, per la Bisbal, travessa el territori municipal d'est a oest. En aquest lloc s'inicia la carretera local de Vulpellac a Pals. El lloc de Volpeyliacho, del comtat d'Empúries, s'esmenta l'any 894 i, en documents dels anys 904 i 911, és anomenat Vulpiliaco. Hom ha suposat que el topònim pot derivar del gentilici llatí Vulpi8lius, però Joan Coromines el creu d'origen cèltic.
El poble de Vulpellac (51 m d'alt), a l'esquerra de la riera de Fonteta, té un nucli antic de notable interès arquitectònic, centrat pel conjunt que formen el castell-palau i l'església parroquial. Com en tants pobles de l'Empordà, en els darrers anys un bon nombres de cases han estat convertides en segona residència. Fora d'aquest nucli són força nombroses les masies disseminades pel veïnat del pla i una mica per tot el terme, que té altres dos nuclis importants de població: el veïnat de la Bordeta, sorgit el segle XIX al llarg de la carretera de Girona, i la urbanització del Puig de Sant Ramon.
L'església parroquial de Sant Julià i Santa Basilissa és l'antiga capella del castell. L'edifici actual és del segle XVI, d'estil gòtic tardà, amb detalls renaixentistes i fortificada. A migdia de l'església s'ha excavat part d'una necròpolis alt-medieval amb tombes antropomorfes i de lloses que també s'estenien per sota del temple i pel subsòl del castell, on es troba un fragment de sarcòfag decorat. S'han trobat vestigis de l'església anterior, que podrien ésser romànics.
El castell-palau, per la seva banda, manté en una bona part l'estructura essencial del segle XIV, amb nombroses reformes de la primera meitat del XVI, efectuades per ordre de Miquel Sarriera, que afectaren la disposició interior i la decoració, Pels volts de 1725 s'hi van fer altres reformes i més endavant, l'edifici va ser convertit en casa de pagès. És un immoble de dues plantes format per tres crugies, que junt amb l'església, emmarquen un petit pati interior de planta trapezial. El 1931 va ser declarat monument nacional.
A l'entorn de l'església i del palau hi ha restes disperses de la muralla, alguns vestigis de la qual es troben entremig de les cases del poble. L'element més ben conservat és la torre-portal del nord-est, de planta quadrada i amb la porta adovellada. Es conserva una altra torrre, cilíndrica, al sudo-est del poble, encaixada entre les cases. Malgrat l'alteració recent d'algunes cases del nucli urbà, estructurat a l'entorn del castell i de l'església, hi ha alguns edificis dels segles XVII i XVIII que tenen un interès notable com a arquitectura popular als carrerons del nord a la plaça Major, situada extramurs, i al carrer Major, on hi ha cases amb portals adovellats, escuts i alguns finestrals decorats.
A la part muntanyosa del terme hi ha petites zones de pins i alzines, i espais de vinya i oliveres. A la resta dels conreus, principalment de secà, es planten cereals, farratges i llegums. Hi ha un reduït sector de regadiu, que aprofita les aigües subterrànies, dedicat a hortalises, blat de moro i farratges. Les granges avícoles i la cria de bestiar boví i porcí, amb algunes activitats industrials derivades, completen l'economia. Degut a la seva situació —al costat de la carretera C-255 de Girona a Palamós i de la Bisbal—, al seu terme s'hi han anat instal·lant un bon nombre d'indústires, principalment relacionades amb el sector de la ceràmica o la pedra artificial. Per concolidar i ordenar aquest potencial industrial, l'any 1999 es va començar a urbanitzar un polígon que permetrà donar sortida a la gran demanda de sòl industrial que existeix en aquesta zona.

El antiguo municipio de Vulpellac tenía, antes de la anexión de Fonteta i Peratallada, 4,29 kilómetros cuadrados de extensión. El término comprende una zona aturonada, a ponente|poniente y al NW con el punto más elevado en el monte Negre (109 m. de alto), que forma parte de la sierra de Sant Ramon, límite con el término vecino de La Bisbal d'Empordà. La parte restante del término está plana y drenada por la rambla de Fonteta, de la cuenca del Daró, que devalla de las Gabarras. La carretera de Palamós a Gerona, por|para la Episcopal, atraviesa el territorio municipal de este en oeste. En este lugar|sitio se inicia la carretera local de Vulpellac a Pals. El lugar|sitio de Volpeyliacho, del condado de Empúries, se menciona el año 894 y, en documentos de los años 904 y 911, es nombrado Vulpiliaco. Se ha supuesto que el topónimo puede derivar del gentilicio latín Vulpi8lius, pero Joan Coromines lo cree de origen céltico.
El pueblo de Vulpellac (51 m de 'alto), a la izquierda de la rambla de Fonteta, tiene un núcleo antiguo de notable interés arquitectónico, centrado por el conjunto que forman el castillo-palacio y la iglesia parroquial. Como en tantos pueblos del Empordà, en los últimos años uno bueno números de casas han sido convertidas en segunda residencia. Fuera de este núcleo son bastante numerosas las masías diseminadas por el vecindario del plan|llano y un poco por|para todo el término, que tiene otros dos núcleos importantes de población: el vecindario de la Bordeta, surgido el siglo XIX a lo largo de la carretera de Gerona, y la urbanización del Puig de Sant Ramon.
La iglesia parroquial de Sant Julià i Santa Basilissa es la antigua capilla del castillo. El edificio actual es del siglo XVI, de estilo gótico tardó, con detalles renacentistas y fortificada. A mediodía de la iglesia se ha excavado parte de una necrópolis alto-medieval con tumbas antropomorfas y de losas que también se extendían por debajo del templo y por|para el subsuelo del castillo, donde se encuentra un fragmento de sarcófago decorado. Se han encontrado vestigios de la iglesia anterior, que podrían ser románicos.
El castillo-palacio, por su parte, mantiene en una buena parte la estructura esencial del siglo XIV, con numerosas reformas de la primera mitad del XVI, efectuadas por orden de Miquel Sarriera, que afectaron a la disposición interior y la decoración, Alrededor de 1725 se hicieron otras reformas y más adelante, el edificio fue convertido en casa de campo. Es un inmueble de dos plantas formado por tres crujías, que junto con la iglesia, enmarcan un pequeño patio interior de planta trapecial. En 1931 fue declarado monumento nacional.
En Torno a la iglesia y del palacio hay restos dispersos de la muralla, algunos vestigios de la cual se encuentran en medio de las casas del pueblo. El elemento mejor conservado es la torre-portal del nordeste, de planta cuadrada y con la puerta adintelada. Se conserva otra torrre, cilíndrica, en el sudo-est del pueblo, apretón entre las casas. A pesar de la alteración reciente de algunas casas del núcleo urbano, estructurado en torno al castillo y de la iglesia, hay algunos edificios de los siglos XVII y XVIII que tienen un interés notable como arquitectura popular a las callejuelas|callejones del norte en la plaza Major, situada extramurs, y a la calle Major, donde|dónde hay casas con portales adintelados, escudos y algunos ventanales decorados.
En la parte montañosa del término hay pequeñas zonas de pins y encinas, y espacios de viña y olivos. En el resto de los cultivos, principalmente de secano, se plantan cereales, forrajes y legumbres. Hay un reducido sector de regadío, que aprovecha las aguas subterráneas, dedicado a hortalises, maíz y forrajes. Las granjas avícolas y la cría de ganado bovino y porcino, con algunas actividades industriales derivadas, completan la economía. Debido a su situación -al lado de la carretera C-255 de Gerona a Palamós y de la Episcopal-, a su término se han ido instalando un buen número de indústires, principalmente relacionadas con el sector de la cerámica o la piedra artificial. Por concolidar y ordenar este potencial industrial, el año 1999 se empezó a urbanizar un polígono que permitirá dar salida a la gran demanda de suelo industrial que existe en esta zona.

The Captives surrounded the pedestal of the statue of Louis XIV on foot in the Place des Victoires. They are by Martin Desjardins, the gallicized name of an eminent Dutch sculptor active during the reign of Louis XIV, who had already made his name with the decoration of the Hôtel Salé (now the Musée Picasso). The monument was commissioned in 1679 by François d'Aubusson, duke of La Feuillade and marshal of France, who had distinguished himself in the campaigns in Franche-Comté and Sicily. He was an astute courtier, and thought it opportune to raise a grandiose monument to the glory of his king. As a setting for the statue, he persuaded the city to open up an immense square and he had the architect Jules Hardouin-Mansart design it. The square was named Place des Victoires in homage to France's victories in the Dutch War, which ended in 1679 with the Treaty of Nijmegen. The monument was inaugurated in 1686.
The captives, four larger-than-life bronze figures, symbolize the four nations defeated at the time of the Treaty of Nijmegen. Each represents one of the ages of man and a different attitude to captivity. Spain is a smooth-faced young man with streaming hair. His naked, upright body and heavenward gaze all indicate hope. The Holy Roman Empire is a bearded old man dressed in an ancient tunic. His head is bowed and his body sags in dejected resignation. Holland is young man with virile features and a short beard. His naked body poised to leap, his shoulder thrust forward in a defiant gesture and his wild expression speak of rebellion. Brandenburg is a mature man dressed like an ancient barbarian (like the Farnese Prisoners, classical marbles highly appreciated by many artists). The hand clutching his cloak, the drooping right shoulder and contorted face express grief. The Captives are all turned to the right, which encourages viewers to walk around the monument in a clockwise direction. Desjardins brilliantly varied his figures, alternating old and young, nude and clothed, upright and stooping figures, and arranging their arms and legs in different positions.

Paul McCoy Professor in Ceramics at Baylor University
www.baylor.edu/art/index.php?id=5308
Raised in Chicago’s south side, Paul McCoy began working in clay in 1964 under the direction of Daniel Edler at Scattergood Friends School, a boarding school in rural West Branch, Iowa. He received his undergraduate degree at Northern Illinois University in 1975 and taught ceramics in Chicago-area high schools for several years before moving to Texas to work in the oilfields. During this period, McCoy enrolled in evening ceramics courses at the University of Houston/Clear Lake, where he spent two years working under the supervision of Professor Nick de Vries, who McCoy credits as one of his most significant influences and mentors. McCoy received his M.F.A. in ceramics at the University of Iowa in 1985, moving to Waco, Texas in 1986 to direct the ceramics program at Baylor University, where he currently holds the position of Professor & University Ceramist-in-Residence.
McCoy’s creative endeavors embrace both functional and sculptural ceramics. His work has been exhibited, published, and collected at national and international levels for the past 21 years.

Pandan-island, Starfish-Island, Snake-Island ...
We verleiden de visjes met een beetje brood in de handen.

Claudia wurde am 2. August 2009 im Allwetterzoo Münster geboren. Sie ist die Tochter von Gana und N'Kwango, die kleine Schwester von Mary 2.
Gana hat sich um Claudia gekümmert, aber am 17. 1. 2010 starb sie (also Gana). Erst sah es so aus als würde eine andere Frau aus der Gorillafamilie Claudia "adoptieren", aber die Hoffnung hat sich zerschlagen, und so zog Claudia am 29. 1. 2010 in den Affenkindergarten der Wilhelma.

Claudia was born on August 2, 2008, in the All-Weather Zoo in Muenster (Germany). She is the daughter of Gana and N'Kwango, and the little sister of Mary 2. Gana cared for Claudia, but she (i.e. Gana) died on January 17, 2010.
At first, another female of the gorilla family would "adopt" Claudia, but this hope failed. Therefore, Claudia came to the ape nursery at Wilhelma (Stuttgart, Germany); she arrived January 29, 2010.

In 1966, NTA released Sharad of Atlantis in television syndication. It was a feature edited from the 1936 Republic serial, Undersea Kingdom. Starring Ray "Crash" Corrigan, Lon Chaney Jr., Monte Blue, Smiley Burnette. Directed by B. Reeves "Breezy" Eason.
Starring Ray "Crash" Corrigan, Lon Chaney Jr., Monte Blue, Smiley Burnette. Directed by B. Reeves "Breezy" Eason. Crash Corrigan dives to Atlantis in a submarine with his friends, Lois Wilde, C. Montague Shaw and Lee Van Atta, to save the world from the Black Robes, led by Unga Khan (Monte Blue).
Crash Corrigan, a recent graduate of Annapolis, and Diana, a go-getting reporter, join Professor Norton for a search for the source of a string of earthquakes, Atlantis. They ride Prof. Norton's rocket submarine searching the sea and little Billy Norton, the professor's son stows away, of course. When they find Atlantis they are caught in a war between peaceful Atlanteans, note their white capes, and war-monging Atlanteans, note their black capes. After many harrowing moments for Crash, Diana, Prof. Norton and Billy, they barely get away with their lives when they escape a tower of Atlantis raised to the surface for the sole purpose of dominating or destroying the Earth (Which one depends on the compliance of the upper world dwellers.)
Directed by B. Reeves Eason and former editor Joseph Kane, this Flash Gordon imitation was the second serial from a then newcomer in the field, Republic Pictures. Actually, it was only the Republic Eagle trademark that was new; Undersea Kingdom was produced by Nat Levine, formerly of Mascot Pictures, a serial kingdom all its own which had been incorporated into Republic in 1935, lock, stock, and Gene Autry. Not to be outdone by Universal's blond superhero, Undersea Kingdom had Ray "Crash" Corrigan, crash-helmet and all, diving into the ocean in a fantastic super submarine. Corrigan and his passengers -- Professor Norton (C. Montague Shaw), the professor's young son (Lee Van Atta), brash newspaperwoman Diana Compton (Lois Wilde), and a couple of sailors -- are headed toward the legendary sunken continent of Atlantis. Upon arrival, the surface people discover that the recent rash of undersea earthquakes are the work of Unga Khan (Monte Blue), the leader of the evil Black Robes whose nefarious goal is to destroy America. Unga Khan's kingdom proves to be a mixture of science-fiction gadgetry and medieval derring-do, both the Black Robes and their enemy, the White Robes, dressed like something out of a Wagnerian nightmare. The surface people ally themselves with the White Robes and in the 12th and final chapter, "Ascent to the Upperworld," Corrigan et al. finally manage to rid both worlds of the evil Khan. Republic threw everything but the kitchen sink at the Saturday matinee crowd this time around, including such veteran action and Western players as William Farnum, Raymond Hatton, Smiley Burnette, Lon Chaney Jr., Lane Chandler, Malcolm McGregor, and John Merton. Undersea Kingdom also employed most of the stunt men whose work would eventually help make Republic the pride of Poverty Row: Eddie Parker, Al Seymour, George de Normand, Tom Steele, and the Yrigoyen brothers, Bill and Joe. Undersea Kingdom was also released in an edited feature version, retitled Sharrad of Atlantis.
One of my all-time favorite serials, goofy over-the-top fun that's hard to beat. Here's the premise: a series of devastating earthquakes are investigated by kindly old Professor Norton, who theorizes that they are somehow being caused by the legendary sunken continent of Atlantis. Luckily, the prof has invented an amazing new super-submarine and he goes to check things out. Unfortunately, his party consists of two goofy stooges, a colorless girl reporter who tags along, and his little son Billy (a thrill freak who stows away). On the other hand, he's sharp enough to also bring along the very athletic and tough Naval lieutenant Ray "Crash" Corrigan, one of the best guys to have at your back in a cliffhanger.
Things get weird awful fast. The sub is drawn into a cavern ten thousand feet below the surface and here they find a lost world. Yes, in a cave deep under the ocean is the land of Atlantis, complete with sunlight and a wide open sky and trees and all that. The Professor doesn't even try to explain this, and frankly, neither will I. You just have to go with it. Atlantis is in theory ruled by the kindly high priest Sharad (finally! a decent high priest), but there is also this usurper named Unga Khan.
Although everyone else is still riding in chariots and fighting with curved swords, Unga Khan has an impressive array of advanced technology. Robots (called Volkites for some reason), flying torpedoes and death rays, an armored tank called the Juggernaut, television spy cameras, everything except Gameboys. Being one of those mad conquest-hungry types (as his name suggests), Khan is determined to bring his metal tower to the surface like a missile and launch an all-out attack on the world above.
Right off the bat, Unga Khan brainwashes Professor Norton to help him with his schemes. Crash Corrigan objects strenuously and we're off on a wild barrage of attacks and deathtraps and wrestling matches and explosions.... all the things that are great to enjoy if you're sitting comfortably on your couch instead of being in the middle of it all. The serial is full of memorable moments, but you really have to love the scene where Crash has been tied to the front of that Juggernaut thing. Behind the wheel, Lon Chaney (of all people) as the brutal Captain Hakur gives him one more chance to co-operate or he'll ram the tank right through the city gates with our hero on the front bumper. Clenching his teeth and speaking with absolute conviction, Crash says, "Go ahead and RAM!" That's the spirit, Corrigan.
It's kind of obvious that UNDERSEA KINGDOM was Republic's response to the successful Universal epic, FLASH GORDON. I mean, "Flash Gordon" - "Crash Corrigan", say them quickly together. The basic plots were the same, but although I thought UNDERSEA KINGDOM moved a bit more briskly and had better action than FLASH GORDON, there were a few areas where the second serial suffered in comparison to its inspiration. Monte Blue was okay as Unga Khan, giving his lines a lot of zest but he certainly was no match for Charles Middleton as Ming. (Now there was a villain who ranked with Fu Manchu and Professor Moriarty.)
Also, Lois Wilde as pushy reporter Diana makes no impression on me, and apparently Crash wasn't too smitten with her, either. Although most of the cast (including Crash) get to run around in bizarre tunics and crested helmets and flashy robes, Diana stays in her drab professional skirt & jacket ensemble. Compare her with Jean Rogers as Dale Arden in those teeny outfits that still cause testosterone surges in male viewers. Actually, most of the comraderie was between Crash and little Billy Norton, who idolized the big lug in a completely straight, non-suggestive kid brotherly way. Billy even got to save the day a few times, which was more than Diana or the brainwashed professor did.
The biggest misgiving I have about UNDERSEA KINGDOM is that it cheated shamelessly on some of the chapter endings. You see someone clearly drop down an elevator shaft, tumbling roughly to doom; and then next chapter opens with that person catching a projection right after falling in. Boo! Hiss! I can forgive some dodgy solutions to cliffhangers but outright cheating riles me. Showing the hero finding a last minute way out of the burning building or even just leaping out of the car before it blows up is okay, but showing events completely different from what we saw the week before just isn't playing fair.
Crash Corrigan (1902-1976, real name Raymond Bernard) makes a splendid hero. Obviously in terrific shape, he really seems like he can wrestle down two big men at a time and he delivers his lines with conviction. He would not have been a bad choice to play Tarzan or Hercules. Although Corrigan made a lot of Westerns, that's really not my field of interest (maybe someday) and I know him better for all his appearances in that inimitable gorilla suit - in fact, as the horned apelike Orangapoid, he gave Buster Crabbe a rough tangle in FLASH GORDON not long before UNDERSEA KINGDOM. Twenty years later, he played the murderous Martian creature in the very cool drive-in classic IT! THE TERROR FROM BEYOND SPACE, often cited as an inspiration for the ALIEN movies.
De Ommetje publieksprijs.
Afgelopen zaterdag viel mij de eer te beurt om de ‘Ommetje publieksprijs’ in ontvangst te nemen.
De meeste Vlielanders en Vlielandfans zijn vermoedelijk wel bekent met de website ‘Het Ommetje’ van Folkert Janssens.
Folkert weet met ontzettend veel enthousiasme deze website te vullen met allerlei wetenswaardigheden, nieuwsfeiten en verslagen over Vlieland en haar bewoners.
Vorig jaar heeft Folkert de Ommetje publieksprijs ingesteld, op Het Ommetje wordt daar het volgende over gemeld;
Website www.hetommetje.nl kent jaarlijks een publieksprijs toe aan iemand die zich heeft ingezet voor de beeldvorming van het eiland Vlieland of die Vlieland op de één of andere wijze belangeloos heeft gepromoot.
In 2011 resulteerde dit bijvoorbeeld in een optreden van de Vlielander zanger Sjoerd op het festival Into the Great Wide Open alwaar hij zijn onderscheiding in ontvangst mocht nemen.
U als lezer van deze website mag meebeslissen over wie om welke reden in aanmerking moet komen voor deze prijs die bestaat uit een onderscheiding in de vorm van een door Peter Petersen vervaardigde bronzen penning en er wordt altijd gepoogd om de uitreiking passend naar de verdienste(n) van de betreffende persoon of organisatie aan te kleden.
Kent u iemand die in aanmerking komt voor deze onderscheiding, neem dan even contact met ons op.
Enige weken terug zocht Folkert mij op in De Noordwester en liet mij weten dat Het Ommetje voornemens was mij de Ommetje publieksprijs uit te reiken.
Folkert en de lezers van het Ommetje waren tot de voordracht gekomen vanwege mijn inzet voor de beschrijving van Vlieland tijdens de oorlogsjaren in het algemeen, en de inspanningen voor het voor het publiek open stellen van het Stützpunkt 12H in het bijzonder.
Ik ging schoorvoetend akkoord met het in ontvangst nemen van de prijs, ik houdt er niet zo van om het middelpunt van de belangstelling te staan.
Ik ging er daarna van uit dat Folkert voor de uitreiking op zijn fiets naar de Lange-Paal zou komen, om mij daar aan de deur een attentie te overhandigen, een fotootje te maken voor de website Het Ommetje, en dat het daarmee gedaan zou zijn.
Daarbij had ik even buiten Folkert gerekend; een maandje later viel bij mij de uitnodiging in de bus, met daarbij het programma van de uitreiking.
Dit luidde als volgt;
Het programma:
Vrijdag 12 oktober 2012, omstreeks 15.30 uur
Aankomst op Vlieland van Luitenant Kolonel Schmidt (Militaire attaché van de Duitse ambassade in Nederland), officiële ontvangst door commandant Klu-detachement Vlieland, Jan Houter, Folkert Janssens en eventueel Burgemeester Haan.
Aankomst militair materieel (2 st. Amerikaans tbv Veldkeuken en 1 stuks Duitse Kubelwagen met bemanning in historische uniformen).
17.00 – 18.30 Speciale editie “Vlieland toen” door Jan Houter in Podium Vlieland (vertelling over Vlieland ten tijde van WOII met beeldmateriaal)
Zaterdag 13 oktober 11.30
Vertrek bus vanaf terminal Rederij Doeksen naar locatie CSK. Tevens vertrek militaire colonne naar CSK (met mogelijkheid mee te rijden voor gasten)
12.00 Start militaire lunch
12.30 Militair verzamelsignaal geblazen door Niek Strous
12.31 Toespraak Luitenant Kolonel Schmidt en aansluitend uitreiking Ommetje Publieksprijs
13.00 Rondleiding en uitleg bij statische tentoonstelling legervoertuigen
14.00 Einde programma CSK, vertrek bus en colonne (colonne maakt rondrit over het eiland met gasten, bus rijdt rechtstreeks terug naar terminal)
14.30 Optioneel in verband met weersomstandigheden: Bezoek aan stelling 12H.
16.30 De Noordwester: Voor genodigden en pers presentatie plannen renovatie en openstelling stelling 12H.
Daar werd ik toch enigszins beduusd van.
Folkert had alle registers open getrokken om van de uitreiking een ware happening te maken.
Omdat ik meteen inzag dat er nu geen weg terug meer was, nam ik mij voor mij er aan over te geven en de hele gebeurtenis te ondergaan.
Afgelopen vrijdag maakte ik bij Podium Vlieland kennis met Luitenant-kolonel i.G. Joachim Schmidt, de militaire attaché van de Duitse ambassade en hoorden we met een select gezelschap een enthousiaste lezing van Jan Houter aan.
De zaterdag was het zover; verzamelen van de militaire voertuigen bij de Veerdam en daarna met het hele gezelschap naar het Cavalerie Schiet Kamp.
Ik mocht voor gaan op mijn Harley-Davidson 1943, en verzorgde het escorte samen met Erik de Boer en Rein Schokker beiden op hun Moto Guzzi V50 in Koninklijke Landmacht uitvoering.
Rein had zijn Go Pro op zijn helm, en maakte deze reportage van de rit naar het CSK.
Op het CSK troffen we Jorrit Volkers uit Leeuwarden, die speciaal voor deze gelegenheid met zijn GMC CCKW- 352, met in de laadbak een originele Amerikaanse veldkeuken, naar Vlieland was gekomen. Jorrit en zijn keukenteam hadden op deze veldkeuken een heerlijk geurende nasi bereidt.
De aanwezigheid van deze en de overige legervoertuigen was tot stand gekomen door vooral de bemiddelingen van Wietze Kikstra en Klaas Houter.
Het gezelschap verzamelde zich in de kantine van het Klu-detachement op Vlieland en werd welkom geheten door de commandant van het Detachement, de majoor Pieter Bruinink.
Na de voortreffelijke nasi-maaltijd begon het officiële gedeelte, en nam de Luitenant-kolonel i.G. Joachim Schmidt het woord om mij en het gezelschap toe te spreken.
De Oberstleutnant Schmidt hield een mooie toespraak, de tekst daarvan vindt u hier onder.
Ik werd wel enigszins ongemakkelijk van de lofuitingen die ik mocht aanhoren, maar ontving deze dankbaar.
Na de toespraak van Oberstleutnant Schmidt kreeg ik de fraai legpenning gemaakt door Peter Petersen behorende bij de Ommetje publieksprijs overhandigd en, ook erg aardig, een dinerbon voor Anke en mij bij restaurant Zuiver.
Na de overhandiging van de publieksprijs van het Ommetje nam ik zelf nog even het woord om een korte schets te geven van het ontstaan van mijn interesse voor de geschiedenis van de oorlogsjaren op Vlieland en sprak ik mijn dank uit naar met name Folkert, aan alle anderen die op enige wijze hun bijdrage hadden geleverd aan deze dag.
Na dit officiële gedeelte kon men weer instijgen in de voertuigen en werd via het Kantonnierspad onder langs de zeeduinen koers gezet naar de Stelling 12H.
Bij 12H mocht ik nog een rondleiding geven langs de diverse verscholen bunkers, kon ik uitleg geven over de functie en uitrusting van de stelling en een toelichting op de plannen voor de openstelling van het geheel voor het publiek.
Altijd leuk om voor een oprecht geïnteresseerd publiek een inleiding te geven over een onderwerp waar ik goed van op de hoogte ben.
Ook aardig om mensen die al heel lang op Vlieland wonen dingen te laten zien waar men geen notie van had dat die nog in het terrein zijn terug te vinden.
Bij het vertrek richting dorp vielen de eerste spatjes van de verwachtte regen, gelukkig arriveerden de verwachtte buien pas op het einde van het ‘buiten programma’.
Ter afsluiting was er nog de mogelijkheid voor de geïnteresseerden om de tentoonstelling ‘Vlieland tijdens de Oorlogsjaren’ waarbij ik voor de aanwezigen nog een toelichting gaf op hetgeen daar allemaal te zien valt.
Na nog een kop koffie kwam deze gebeurtenis tot een eind, en na afscheid van de Luitenant Kolonel Schmidt en zijn vrouw en nog een hand en een Hartelijke Dank aan Folkert en Nancy reed ik met een tevreden en voldaan gevoel door de regen op mijn Harley-Davidson naar de Lange-Paal.
Dirk Bruin – oktober 2012
Nawoord;
Folkert moet ontzettend veel werk gehad hebben met de organisatie van de uitreiking van de Ommetje Publieksprijs, en ik wil hem vanaf deze plaats nogmaals heel hartelijk danken.
Ik besef ook dat Folkert van veel mensen en bedrijven hulp heeft gehad, en dat het zonder deze belangeloze medewerking nooit zo’n geslaagde gebeurtenis had kunnen realiseren.
Zonder tot in detail te weten wie hier allemaal bij betrokken waren, wil ik ook dezen zeer hartelijk danken!

Toespraak ter gelegenheid van de ‘Ommetje Publieksprijs’ aan de heer Dirk Bruin op 13 oktober 2012.
Geachte meneer Janssens, meneer de burgemeester, geachte meneer Bruin, geachte dames en
heren,
Het is voor alle aanwezigen vast een beetje ongewoon dat de defensie-attaché van de Duitse
ambassade in Nederland vandaag tot u spreekt. Ik wil u, geachte meneer Janssens, ook namens
mijn vrouw, allereerst danken voor uw uitnodiging voor deze prijsuitreiking. Ik wil u allen de
hartelijke groeten overbrengen van de Duitse ambassadeur in Nederland, dr. Heinz-Peter Behr. Hij
was graag zelf gekomen, maar was verhinderd en heeft mij verzocht naar Vlieland te gaan om
deze prijs uit te reiken.
Dat doe ik natuurlijk graag. Want het is ook voor mijn vrouwen mij om diverse redenen een
bijzondere manifestatie. Zo zijn wij voor het eerst op Vlieland. Over Vlieland hoorde ik voor het
eerst in 1988. Ik was compagniecommandant van een verkenningseenheid in Lüneburg in
Nedersaksen. Wij hadden een mooie en levendige peetschap met het B-Eskadron van het
verkennings bataljon 103 in Seedorf. De officieren van dit bataljon hadden voorgesteld dat wij een
van onze toentertijd regelmatige ontmoetingen met onze gezinnen eens op Vlieland konden
houden. Mijn Nederlandse kameraden hadden hoog opgegeven van dit eiland, dat zij kenden van
hun oefeningen. Mijn vrouwen ik weten sinds gisteravond waarom.
Helaas is het toen niet meer van een trip naar Vlieland gekomen. Enerzijds was dit jammer, maar
anderzijds kwam er een gebeurtenis in de wereldpolitiek tussen, die men toen en zeker ook nu
nog als een wonder kan zien: de val van de Berlijnse muur.
Het ijzeren gordijn was weg, de koude oorlog ras zonder bloedvergieten geëindigd. De Bondsrepubliek Duitsland had dankzij haar betrokkenheid bij het westen en dankzij de steun van haar vrienden, waartoe ook toen al Nederland hoorde, niet alleen de koude oorlog overwonnen, maar ook haar eenheid
teruggekregen. Wij Duitsers zijn hierover zeer verheugd en het is zeker ook nu - na meer dan 22
Jaar - nog steeds gepast deze vrienden en daarmee u allen ervoor te bedanken dat u tijdens de
koude oorlog en de tijd na de ommekeer standvastig aan onze kant stond.
Zoals bekend was de koude oorlog een nasleep van de Tweede Wereldoorlog die Duitsland had
veroorzaakt en die zoveel onheil met zich mee heeft gebracht. Ook Vlieland bleef niet gespaard.
De Duitse Wehrmacht hield het eiland langer bezet dan de rest van Nederland. Dit eiland hoorde -
zoals de gehele Noordzeekust van Skagerrak tot aan Frankrijk - tot de zogenoemde Atlantikwall.
Met stellingen over een lengte van meer dan 2685 km geloofde men aan Duitse kant effectief het
hoofd te kunnen bieden aan een dreigende invasie vanaf de Atlantische Oceaan, het Kanaal en de
Noordzee en hier aan de Nederlandse Noordzeekust de heerschappij van het naziregime over uw
vaderland te verlengen.
Dames en heren, de sporen van deze Atlantikwall zijn ook nu nog aan te treffen. Sporen van beton
en steen, die getuigen van een tijd, die goddank allang achter ons ligt. Maar het zijn sporen die
voor het nageslacht moeten worden behouden, omdat zij deel uitmaken van onze gezamenlijke
geschiedenis. Zij herinneren Vlieland en al zijn bezoekers aan een donkere tijd vol ontberingen en
het verlies van vrijheid. Het zijn sporen die ons Duitsers altijd weer onder ogen brengen hoever
grootheidswaan en verblinding kunnen gaan. Alleen al de blik op zulke bunkers middenin een
natuurparadijs als Vlieland sterkt mij als Duits soldaat in de mening dat wij er alles voor moeten
doen om niet alleen lering te trekken Uit deze ontzettende geschiedenis, maar dit ook aan onze
kinderen en volgende generaties moeten doorgeven.
U, meneer Bruin, doet dit al vele jaren. Het is uw verdienste dat de herinnering aan de Tweede
Wereldoorlog op Vlieland levend gehouden blijft. Met zeer grote persoonlijke inzet draagt u al heel
lang toe bij dat de geschiedenis hier op Vlieland tastbaar blijft. Wat is er zinvoller dan een
geschiedenisles juist daar aan te bieden, waar de geschiedenis zich daadwerkelijk heeft
afgespeeld? Men mag de beschouwers van deze geschiedenis niet aan zich zelf overlaten: de
geschiedenis moet worden verklaard. U, meneer Bruin, maakt ons en alle bezoekers daar in de
duinen deze geschiedenis duidelijk. Dat is uw verdienste en dat waarderen wij vandaag.
De organisatoren van de huidige manifestatie rond Folkert Janssens hebben besloten u de
Ommetje publieksprijs 2012 toe te kennen.
Ik vind dit een heel goede beslissing• en feliciteer de verantwoordelijken met hun keuze.
U, geachte meneer Bruin, feliciteer ik van harte, ook namens de Duitse ambassadeur in
Nederland, met deze mooie onderscheiding. Ik wens u ook verder de grote motivatie toe om uw
werk met hetzelfde enthousiasme voort te zetten. En natuurlijk wens ik u ook dat u met uw
verdienstelijke werk het interesse en de erkenning krijgt van diegenen die ten slotte dit
geschiedenis project nog financieel moeten ondersteunen. Hier moet zeker ook dank uitgaan aan
de ondernemer en sponsoren van Vlieland die zich in het verleden ook al geëngageerd hebben.
Wij moeten de herinnering aan de oorlog voor onze huisdeur levend houden. Alleen zo kunnen de
verschrikkingen van die tijd geloofwaardig aan de jongere generatie worden doorgegeven en als
afschrikking dienen. U, meneer Bruin, heeft zich hiervoor in bijzondere mate verdienstelijk
gemaakt,.

i redid my room!
on saturday julia came over and we cleaned my room. let me tell you, my room was a MESS. it took us six hours. by the end i had countless bags filled with papers and just general shit that used to sit on the floor in my room. then i had one massive garbage bag full of clothes (now my dresser drawers can actually open and close! yes!) and one garbage bag full of "accessories". these bags came in the mail from the lupus foundation, so they just got a ton of stuff from my room.... the only thing i don't understand is why having lupus makes you need clothes and stuff? but i guess they are for poor people with lupus. also, the whole time i was thinking of house. and how it's never lupus... i also gave away a TON of books. an entire shelf full, actually. so about a quarter of all the books i own. which is a lot.
then we painted blackboard paint onto my wall. and then we painted a silver "picture frame" around it. but it's kind of just a wavy silver blob. that was extremely fun. and now a have a chalk board on my wall! theeennnnnnn we put up all sorts of pictures and magazine stuff and artwork.
and then today i bought a PAPASAN CHAIR. i didn't know that was the name for it until today, but it was kind of an impulse buy and i'm incredibly happy. lol. i also moved my bed.
so i accomplished a lot in the past few days. actually, i've pretty much done everything on my todo list EXCEPT finish any of my summer reading/homework. so now my chalk board is a very not fun list of stuff i need to do.
i'm reading pride and prejudice in the picture, but i'm really only up to chapter 18 in the sparknotes. lol. i'm going to hell. i still need to read the picture of dorian gray, some book about john mccain's 2000 campaign, do my ap bio homework, study for the ACT, and work on my college essays. fml.
