Circa 1900, Tiffany & Co., designed by Paulding Farnham (American, 1859-1927), with gems selected by George Frederick Kunz (American, 1856-1932)
The Iris Corsage represents the combination of art, science, and national pride that characterized World's Fairs. A pamphlet by Tiffany explained how the piece showcases the mineral wealth of the United States: the 120 sapphires are from Montana. Other innovative materials have been skillfully employed to mimic the appearance of a bearded iris: green gold is used for the stem, and blued steel complements the sapphires that form the petals.

YES! This is the second shot of this barn that I placed in Flickr.com, but it is a closer view and more in focus.
There is one black cow, of many, in this image. She may be hard to find, so look at the elevation of the barn floor and then look straight left near the edge of the photo.

From exhibit signage:
Arthrodires were a type of placoderm, early jawed fishes that became extinct before the end of the Devonian Period. The head and thoracic area of arthrodires and other placoderms were covered with a mineralized armor, while the rest of the body was naked or covered with scales. Some arthrodires grew quite large, like Dunkleosteus, which probably exceeded six meters in length and was the terror of Devonian seas.

Fluorite from Ohio, USA. (public display, Geology Department, Wittenberg University, Springfield, Ohio, USA)
A mineral is a naturally-occurring, solid, inorganic, crystalline substance having a fairly definite chemical composition and having fairly definite physical properties. At its simplest, a mineral is a naturally-occurring solid chemical. Currently, there are about 5400 named and described minerals - about 200 of them are common and about 20 of them are very common. Mineral classification is based on anion chemistry. Major categories of minerals are: elements, sulfides, oxides, halides, carbonates, sulfates, phosphates, and silicates.
The halides are the "salt minerals", and have one or more of the following anions: Cl-, F-, I-, Br-.
Fluorite is a calcium fluoride mineral (CaF2). The most diagnostic physical property of fluorite is its hardness (H≡4). Fluorite typically forms cubic crystals and, when broken, displays four cleavage planes (also quite diagnostic). When broken under controlled conditions, the broken pieces of fluorite form double pyramids. Fluorite is a good example of a mineral that can be any color. Common fluorite colors include clear, purple, blue, green, yellow, orange, and brown. The stereotypical color for fluorite is purple. Purple is the color fluorite "should be". A mineral collector doesn't have fluorite unless it's a purple fluorite (!).
Fluorite occurs in association with some active volcanoes. HF emitted from volcanoes can react with Ca-bearing rocks to form fluorite crystals. Many hydrothermal veins contain fluorite. Much fluorite also occurs in the southern Illinois area (Mississippi Valley-type deposits).
Geologic context: vug-filling fluorite crystals in carbonate rock of the Detroit River Group or Dundee Limestone (Lower to Middle Devonian)
Locality: Stoneco Incorporated's Auglaize Quarry, southwest of the town of Junction, northeastern Paulding County, northwestern Ohio, USA

This is Township Road 152, just east of State Route 49, in rural Paulding County, Ohio. The muddy dirt road has to be the worst road that I have ever seen in the midwestern United States! The sign says "Road Closed When Wet," and you can see why!
I photographed it on a rainy, foggy winter morning. This is the first of two photographs that I made of this scene.

This lovely edifice was erected in 1892 using the designs of architects Bruce and Morgan. It stands on the center square in downtown Dallas, Georgia, and was placed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1980.
I had a dealer trade run last week and ran across Uncle Sam beckoning me to come in and buy fireworks. I had to pass him by.
The Fannin-Cooper Farm in Paulding County was honored as a 2013 Georgia Centennial Farm because it was farmed by multiple families for more than 100 years and because it is listed in the National Register of Historic Places. The farm has been operated continuously since 1858 by the Fannin and Cooper families and is owned by Anthony A. Cooper, Jr. The Fannins raised corn and cotton, as well as cattle and hogs. The 84-acre farmstead includes two houses, outbuildings, and farmland. Today the main crops are hay, timber and cattle.

The Great Depression also brought about a larger interest in sports. Although most people could not afford to attend regular games, they were able to go and watch the local high school teams in their town. Also, many families would gather around a radio and enjoy the game together. Sports were an outlet for many people. It relieved their stress and gave the listeners something to do to get their minds off of the problems surrounding the Great Depression. For the players it did the same thing. For the few hours that people were playing sports, whether it be in the big leagues or in their back yard, they would almost forget about what they were going through. It allowed them to be carefree and just have fun playing the game. When children were not out working, they would be with the rest of the neighborhood kids out playing a game. Often times, it was a relief for parents to see their kids having fun. They wanted to put the least amount of the burden on the children as they possibly could. Sports became the great American pastime. It was a way for people to come together and get away from the reality of the Great Depression.

Petroleum in a Favosites fossil coral from the Devonian of Ohio, USA. (field of view: ~6.3 centimeters across)
Corals are essentially sea anemones (polyps) that make a skeleton, which is usually mineralized. Most corals are colonial, but some are solitary. This particular fossil is Favosites, a colonial coral having corallites arranged in a honeycomb-like fashion.
The dark areas are petroleum - hydrocarbons have migrated into porous areas of the fossil. This specimen is from northwestern Ohio, which had a significant petroleum system that was heavily exploited in the late 1800s. Ohio used to be the # 1 petroleum exporter in the world!
Classification: Animalia, Cnidaria, Anthozoa, Tabulata, Favositidae
Stratigraphy: upper Dundee Limestone, Middle Devonian
Locality: Auglaize Quarry (a.k.a. Stoneco Auglaize Quarry; Maumee Stone Company's Auglaize Quarry), eastern side of the Auglaize River, along River Road, southeast of the town of Junction, Auglaize Township, northeastern Paulding County, northwestern Ohio, USA

A Northern Electric Class 319 heads north (right to left) over the stream at Gerards Bridge Junction. The junction itself is under the train's first or second carriage, we can see the end of its fourth carriage.
Paul's parents, never mind his grandparents, would no more recognise this sylvan setting than the dark side of the moon.
As recently as the late 1960s this would have been a barren industrial wasteland.

Phacops rana crassituberculata Stumm, 1953 - enrolled fossil trilobite from the Devonian of Ohio, USA. (Dave Mielke collection; temporary public display, Ohio Geological Survey, Columbus, Ohio, USA)
This fossil is also known as Eldredgeops rana crassituberculata.
Trilobites are extinct marine arthropods. They first appear in Lower Cambrian rocks and the entire group went extinct at the end of the Permian. Trilobites had a calcitic exoskeleton and nonmineralizing parts underneath (legs, gills, gut, etc.). The calcite skeleton is most commonly preserved in the fossil record, although soft-part preservation is known in some trilobites (Ex: Burgess Shale and Hunsruck Slate). Trilobites had a head (cephalon), a body of many segments (thorax), and a tail (pygidium). Molts and carcasses usually fell apart quickly - most trilobite fossils are isolated parts of the head (cranidium and free cheeks), individual thoracic segments, or isolated pygidia. The name "trilobite" was introduced in 1771 by Johann Ernst Immanuel Walch and refers to the tripartite division of the trilobite body - it has a central axial lobe that runs longitudinally from the head to the tail, plus two side lobes (pleural lobes).
Seen here is a famous trilobite whose remains are relatively common in the Middle Devonian-aged Silica Formation of northeastern Ohio. This is Phacops rana crassituberculata (also known as Eldredgeops, an unnecessary genus name based on taxonomic oversplitting). Phacops trilobite fossils occur with other typical Middle Paleozoic shallow marine invertebrates: brachiopods, bryozoans, crinoids, and corals.
Classification: Animalia, Arthropoda, Trilobita, Polymerida, Phacopidae
Stratigraphy: Silica Formation (also known as the Silica Shale), Givetian Stage, upper Middle Devonian
Locality: quarry northwest of the town of Paulding, northern Paulding County, northwestern Ohio, USA (41° 10' 52.55" North latitude, 84° 37' 19.32" West longitude)
