Cypress Grove / Firemen's Cemetery
120 City Park Avenue
New Orleans, Louisiana
circa 1840
Cypress Grove / Firemen's Cemetery was built on the banks of what was Bayou Metairie at the end of Canal Street in 1840. In 1841, the remains of firemen buried elsewhere in the city were moved to Cypress Grove. The entrance pylons and lodges were designed in the Egyptian style by Fredrick Wilkinson for a cost of $8,000. Many Protestant began to be buried here when the Girod Street Cemetery began to deteriorate. The cemetery is lined with Wall Vaults many of which contain the remains of volunteer firemen. There are also several large multi-vault tombs of volunteer fire companies such as Perserverance Fire Co No 13, Philadelphia Fire Engine Co No 14 and the tomb of Eagle Fire Co No 7. Elaborate tombs such as those of the Robert Stark and the WH Letchford families stand in the cemetery alongside the cast iron tomb of former mayor foundaryman, Charles L Leeds. One of the most interesting tombs, is the Soon On Tong Association tomb used as a temporary burial space of Chinese residents. The remains were once brought here for ceremony before being shipped back to China. The tomb of Maunsell White, veteran of the Battle of New Orleans and promoter of the use of hot peppers and pepper sauces (still used today), is buried here.

Sometimes we lose ourselves in all of the chaos. One need only breathe, and take in the unforgiving moment, with the sort of perserverance that stories of acheivement are written about....

Famine (1997) was commissioned by Norma Smurfit and presented to the City of Dublin in 1997.
The sculpture is a commemorative work dedicated to those Irish people forced to emigrate during the 19th century Irish Famine. The bronze sculptures were designed and crafted by Dublin sculptor Rowan Gillespie and are located on Custom House Quay in Dublin's Docklands.
This location is a particularly appropriate and historic as one of the first voyages of the Famine period was on the 'Perserverance' which sailed from Custom House Quay on St. Patrick's Day 1846.
Captain William Scott, a native of the Shetland Isles, was a veteran of the Atlantic crossing, gave up his office job in New Brunswick to take the 'Perserverance' out of Dublin. He was 74 years old. The Steerage fare on the ship was £3 and 210 passengers made the historical journey.
They landed in New York on the 18th May 1846. All passengers and crew survived the journey.

This is the pendant that took 3 days to make. Everything that could possibly go wrong, did. Several times over. I should have just scrapped it and started over but a) I was to stubborn to give in gracefully, and b) I had not enough silver to start again. So, I perservered to the bitter end and this is the resulting mess. :)
I'm keeping it (obviously - I would never sell something so shoddy) to wear as a sort of talisman.

Bronze tribute to a golden era talent - Mo McCackie
MO McCACKIE has been reborn right across the road from where he was born in 1891.
A life-sized statue of Australia's most iconic comic, Roy Rene, was unveiled yesterday (March 04, 2010) on Hindley Street, Adelaide, South Australia.
Roy "Mo" Rene was known to all Australians in the early to mid-20th century. His fame was achieved on stage, in vaudeville and on radio and his name lives on in Australian theatre's annual Mo Awards.
Lord Mayor Michael Harbison declared Mo's arrival in Hindley St, after years of negotiations and perserverance by the West End Traders' Association, to be "the greatest joy" of his time as mayor.
He said Mo was a "true symbol" of Aussie culture and the West End had a richness of history that went beyond bars.
A carpark now stands where Mo was born as Henry van der Sluys, son of a Dutch Jewish cigar-maker. His career took off after he won a singing competition at the Adelaide market.

4th walk today Sun finally came out and local knowledge and perserverance paid off Earliest ever sp 2 with prey 😂😂👍👍👍👍👍 Now for a well earned beer !! (Damned good size comparison as well)
double digits! I'm so proud of myself.. Now if I can make it to triple digits I'll be overjoyed!
Basically, I got new boots yesterday. And I love them. So obviously they had to be included today, and just as I was finished the shoot, not overly happy with the results, I noticed that my Buddha statue had his arms up as though holding a great weight.. so this was my end result! Enjoy :-)
Today I used a Sony 90mm Macro lens and using such a lens imposes some restrictions for street photographers but I like it.

When we were navigating the myriad of emotions we felt about living with HIV back in the 1980's, I never envisioned something like what I had the great blessing to observe and enjoy recently at Georgia State University.
My friend, Dr. Larry Bryant, a professor at Georgia State University, has created an accredited course on HIV Awareness (HIV 101) that is very well thought out and it is having a wonderful effect on the 60+ students enrolled this semester. Imagine, an actual accredited course on HIV, with a text book and everything!!
I was blessed to have the opportunity to share my experiences as a person living with AIDS for the past 25 years. The bredth of the knowledge exhibited by the students was refreshing! Thanks to Dr. Larry Bryant for inviting me to speak and listen. Thanks go to him for having the vision and perserverance needed to make it haopen. I pray that every college and university follow his lead and institute a cousre just like it. Among these students is the person who will discover the cure for HIV.

The entrance pylons and lodges were designed in the Egyptian style by Fredrick Wilkinson for a cost of $8,000. Many Protestant began to be buried here when the Girod Street Cemetery began to deteriorate. The cemetery is lined with Wall Vaults many of which contain the remains of volunteer firemen. There are also several large multi-vault tombs of volunteer fire companies such as Perserverance Fire Co No 13, Philadelphia Fire Engine Co No 14 and the tomb of Eagle Fire Co No 7. Elaborate tombs such as those of the Robert Stark and the WH Letchford families stand in the cemetery alongside the cast iron tomb of former mayor foundaryman, Charles L Leeds. One of the most interesting tombs, is the Soon On Tong Association tomb used as a temporary burial space of Chinese residents. The remains were once brought here for ceremony before being shipped back to China. The tomb of Maunsell White, veteran of the Battle of New Orleans and promoter of the use of hot peppers and pepper sauces (still used today), is buried here.

Perserverance is a big theme in powerlifting. To be able to break barriers and plateus and be stronger, one has to perservere. Powerlifters must lift weights that are difficult to lift because it is how they get stronger. This results in a lot of "grinding out" repetitions and struggling to lift the weight.
