I have no plan with the Kent Church Project, as I call it.

 

The plan, as it is, is to visit each of the Kent parish churches, and if possible, photograph inside and out.

 

I could have a list for each area, names and adresses of each church, and details of opening times or points of contact. But I don't.

 

Mostly its a spur of the moment thing, we're going to a town for something, and we do some churches in the area, and if we're lucky, they're open.

 

If I would have done my research properly, I would have realised that the largest village between Faversham and Sittingbourne, would have a parish church, and I would have ticked it off over Heritage Weekend.

 

As it was, I didn't know.

 

So, late one Friday afternoon, I arrive at the church to find the door open, though the wardens clearing up after the weekend, were not too receptive for a visit, but agreed to stay a "few minutes" to allow me to get some shots.

An enormous building in an isolated position overlooking farmland. The church is entered under a tower built in the fourteenth century, which completed a westward rebuilding of a thirteenth-century church that boasted very large transepts. The Victorian east window (for which there is a design hanging on the wall) was destroyed in the Second World War and replaced by the present glass to the designs of Hugh Easton. In the north transept are some fragments of fifteenth-century glass. The pulpit is Jacobean. In the south transept are some excellent brasses including one to John Frogenhall (d. 1444), showing him wearing the SS-pattern collar of the Lancastrian cause.

TENHAM.

TENHAM, called in Saxon, Teynham, and now frequently written so, is the next parish south-eastward from Bapchild, and gives name to the hundred in which it is situated.

 

THE MANOR, which comprehends the hundred of Tenham, was given by Cenulph, king of Mercia, at the request of archbishop Athelard, by the description of twelve ploughlands, lying at Tenham, to the metropolitan church of our Saviour at Canterbury; and he made this gift chiefly on account of the archbishop's having given to him in recompence, twelve ploughlands lying at Cregesemeline, which king Offa formerly gave to one of his earls, named Uffa; and the king granted this land to the church of Christ, free from all secular service, except the repairing of bridges and the building of castles.

 

The above place, called Creges Emeline, has been understood to mean the fleet, or pool of water between the islands of Emley and Harty, in Shepey, now and long since called Crogs-depe, which water parts the royalty of the Swale between Tenham and Faversham, and is likewise the bounds of the hundreds of Middleton and Faversham. (fn. 1)

 

This manor continued part of the possessions of the church of Canterbury when archbishop Lansranc came to the see in the year 1070, being the 5th of the Conqueror's reign: and on the division which he soon afterwards made of the revenues of his church, between himself and his convent, Tenham was allotted to the archbishop and his successors, for their provision and maintenance.

 

After which the succeeding archbishops so far improved the buildings of this manor-house, as to make it fit for their frequent residence.

 

Archbishop Hubert Walter, a most magnificent prelate; the expence of whose housekeeping was esteemed nearly equal to that of the king, resided much at Tenham, where he died in the year 1205, and was carried from thence and buried in his own cathedral at Canterbury.

 

¶Archbishop Boniface, anno 44 Henry III. 1259, obtained both a market and fair for his manor of Tenham, the former on a Tuesday weekly, and the latter to continue for three days yearly at the Assumption of the Virgin Mary. Archbishop Walter Reynolds was resident here in the beginning of the winter of the year 1325, one of his instruments being dated from hence. Archbishop John Stratford, who filled the see in the reign of Edward III. entertained that prince here in the month of February, anno 1345, being the 19th of his reign, several of his letters patent bearing date from Tenham in that time.

 

The manor of Tenham remained part of the see of Canterbury, so far as I have learned, till the reign of queen Elizabeth, (fn. 2) when it was exchanged with the crown for other premises, where it lay till James I. in his 5th year, granted it to John Roper, esq. of the adjoining parish of Linsted, whom he afterwards, in the 14th year of his reign, knighted and created lord Teynham, in whose successors, lords Teynham, the property of this manor has continued down to the Right Hon. Henry Roper, the twelsth lord Teynham, who is the present possessor of it. A court baron is held for this manor.

 

There are several different customs of the tenants of this manor, principally in the Weald, mentioned in Somner's Gavelkind.

 

TENHAM is within the ECCLESIASTICAL JURISDICTION of the diocese of Canterbury, and deanry of Ospringe,

 

The church, which is large, is dedicated to St. Mary. It is built in the form of a cross, and consists of three isles, a high chancel, and a north and south chancel, having a square tower at the west end, in which are four bells. In the south cross or chancel, called the Frognal chancel, from its belonging to that manor, lie buried several of that family; over John Frogenhall, who died in 1444, there still remains a brass on his gravestone, with his figure habited in armour; several of the Clerks, owners of this manor, lie buried likewise in it. The north chancel is called the Hinkley chancel, from a family of that name, one of whom, John Hencliff, of Tenham, died in 1463, possessed of an estate in this parish, called Jonathan's garden, which he devised to his two sons, on condition that they should glaze a long window on the north head of this church. In this chancel is a stone, with an inscription and figure of a man in brass, for William Wreke, obt. 1533; a memorial for John Sutton, vicar, 1468, and Robert Heyward, in 1509. Weever says, there was a memorial in this church for William Mareys, and Joan his wife, but it has been long since obliterated. There are remains of good painted glass in the windows. Several of them have rich gothic canopies of beautiful coloured glass remaining in them, which had no doubt formerly figures of equal beauty, underneath. In the south window of the high chancel, is the portrait of a girl in blue, kneeling and pointing to a book, which is held by a man, who likewise points with his hand to it; at the bottom was an inscription, of which only remains, Sedis aplce pthonotarii. In the north chancel, in two windows near the vestry, is a figure in an episcopal habit, mitred, &c. with these arms, Ermine, three bars wavy, azure. In the window of the vestry room, a mitre and these arms, Per pale and fess, counterchanged, azure, and argent.

 

¶Archbishop Stephen Langton, in 1227, on account of the slender income of the archdeacontry of Canterbury, and the affection he bore towards his brother Simon Langton, then archdeacon, united to it the churches of Hackington, alias St. Stephen's, and Tenham, with the chapelries of Doddington, Linsted, Stone, and Iwade, then belonging to it, which churches were then of the archbishop's patronage; and this was confirmed by the chapter of the priory of Christchurch directly afterwards; at which time this church was let to farm for one hundred marcs. (fn. 5) In which situation this church has continued to this time, the archdeacon of Canterbury being the present patron and appropriator of it.

 

The chapels above-mentioned, which are all belonging to the archdeaconry, have long since, excepting the chapel of Stone, become independent parish churches, and as such not subject to any jurisdiction of the church of Tenham.

 

In the 8th year of Richard II. anno 1384, this church was valued at 133l. 6s. 8d. It is now of the annual value of about two hundred pounds, the yearly rent to the archdeacon is thirty-five pounds.

 

It is a vicarage, and valued in the king's books at ten pounds, and the yearly tenths at one pound, and is now of the yearly certified value of 63l. 13s. 4d. In 1640 it was valued at sixty pounds. Communicants one hundred.

 

This vicarage was augmented ten pounds per annum, by lease in 1672, between archdeacon Parker and Sir William Hugessen, of Linsted, lessee of the parsonage.

 

The family of Furnese were afterwards lessees of the parsonage; Henry Furnese, esq. sold it to Henry, late lord Teynham, who, in 1754, alienated his interest in it to Mr. Kempe, the occupier of it, in whose family it still continues.

 

There was a chantry in this church, which was suppressed, among other such endowments, by the acts of 37 Henry VIII. and 1 Edward VI. In the 2d year of the latter reign a survey was returned of it, by which it appears, that the land belonging to it lay in Frogenhall manor, then the property of Thomas Green, and that the total yearly value of it was only 18s. 8d.

I drink dew for wine, and hearken to

The voices of the birds, and dance

To the rhythmic swaying of the grass.

 

I am the lover's gift; I am the wedding wreath;

I am the memory of a moment of happiness;

I am the last gift of the living to the dead;

I am a part of joy and a part of sorrow.

 

But I look up high to see only the light,

And never look down to see my shadow.

This is wisdom which man must learn.

~ Kahlil Gibran (Last 3 Verses)

 

I was introduced to the works of Kahlil Gibran back when I was in high school by a good friend who knew of my passion for good literature. She gave me The Prophet which is a series of philosophical poetic essays written in english prose. Must have read that book a hundred times and had to buy another one in hardbound since the pages of my old one were already falling apart. Gibran's work has been an inspiration in my writings and in mine own poetry... now a mere shadow of my past.

Richmond Castle in Richmond, North Yorkshire, England, stands in a commanding position above the River Swale, close to the centre of the town of Richmond. It was originally called Riche Mount, 'the strong hill'. The castle was constructed from 1071 onwards following the Norman Conquest of England, and the Domesday Book of 1086 refers to 'a castlery' at Richmond.

 

In 1069 William the Conqueror had put down a rebellion at York which was followed by his "harrying of the North" – an act of ethnic cleansing which depopulated large areas for a generation or more. As a further punishment, he divided up the lands of north Yorkshire among his most loyal followers. Alan Rufus, of Brittany, received the borough of Richmond and began constructing the castle to defend against further rebellions and to establish a personal power base. His holdings, called the Honour of Richmond, covered parts of eight counties and amounted to one of the most extensive Norman estates in England. The Dukes of Brittany became the owners of the castle as Earls of Richmond though it was often confiscated for various periods by English Kings.

 

A 100-foot (30 m)-high keep of honey-coloured sandstone was constructed at the end of the 12th century by Duke Conan IV of Brittany. The Earldom of Richmond was seized in 1158 by Henry II of England. [a] It was King Henry II who probably completed the keep which had 11-foot (3.4 m)-thick walls. Modern visitors can climb to the top of the keep for magnificent views of the town of Richmond. At the same time that the keep was probably completed, Henry II considerably strengthened the castle by adding towers and a barbican. Henry III and King Edward I spent more money on the site including Edward's improvements to the keep interior.

 

In addition to the main circuit of the wall, there was the barbican in front of the main gate which functioned as a sealed entry space, allowing visitors and wagons to be checked before they gained entry to the castle itself. On the other side of the castle, overlooking the river, was another enclosure or bailey called the Cockpit, which may have functioned as a garden and was overlooked by a balcony. A drawing of 1674 suggests there was another longer balcony overlooking the river side of Scolland's Hall, the Great Hall.

 

Richmond Castle had fallen out of use as a fortress by the end of the 14th century and it did not receive major improvements after that date. A survey of 1538 shows it was partly in ruins, but paintings by Turner and others, together with the rise of tourism and an interest in antiquities, led to repairs to the keep in the early 19th century.

In 1855 the castle became the headquarters of the North Yorkshire Militia, and a military barracks block was constructed in the great courtyard. For two years, from 1908 to 1910, the castle was the home of Robert Baden-Powell, later founder of the Boy Scouts, while he commanded the Northern Territorial Army but the barracks building was demolished in 1931.

The castle was used during the First World War as the base of the Non-Combatant Corps made up of conscientious objectors – conscripts who refused to fight. It was also used to imprison some conscientious objectors who refused to accept army discipline and participate in the war in any way. These included the "Richmond Sixteen" who were taken to France from the castle, charged under Field Regulations, and then sentenced to death, but their death sentences were commuted to ten years' hard labour.

 

As presented today Richmond Castle has one of the finest examples of Norman buildings in Britain including Scollands Hall, the Great Hall of the castle. The keep has a restored roof and floors but is shown with the original 11th-century main gate arch unblocked. This arch is now in the basement of the later 12th century keep which was built in front of it, the main gate then being moved to its present position which was dominated by the adjacent keep while the original arch we see today was filled-in to secure the keep.

 

The castle is a Scheduled Monument, a "nationally important" historic building and archaeological site which has been given protection against unauthorised change.It is also a Grade I listed building and therefore recognised as an internationally important structure. Today the castle is in the care of English Heritage which publishes a guidebook written by John Goodall PhD FSA. English Heritage provides a visitor centre for the castle with an informative exhibition containing artefacts form the castles history, they also hold regular events there throughout the year.

 

According to legend, King Arthur and his knights are sleeping in a cave underneath the castle. It is said that they were once discovered by a potter named Thompson, who ran away when they began to awake. Another legend tells that a drummer boy

Domingo ensolarado e muito agitado no Kartódromo Internacional de Serra, totalmente diferente do sábado de treinos livres, onde a chuva e pista molhada fizeram a marca do dia.

 

O calor intenso não somente provocado pelo sol, mas também pelas brigas dos pilotos dentro da pista. Disputas acirradas valendo o melhor tempo do dia e consecutivamente a pole position.

 

O warm up (treino de aquecimento) teve início às 8h30min, com a categoria Cadete que foi a primeira a entrar na pista seguida da Fórmula 4, Júnior Light e Sprinter. Os pilotos andaram muito para tentar emborrachar ao máximo a pista para o treino cronometrado.

 

Visita da APAE

 

A APAE da cidade de Domingos Martins, desenvolvendo o projeto “A Gazeta na sala de aula”, o qual recebem jornais antigos, acharam uma reportagem do ano de 2006 com os pilotos Ariel Varela e Ygor Santana. Com isso surgiu o interesse da criançada que gosta de automobilismo. Nesse domingo eles tiveram a oportunidade de vir ao Kartódromo para poder prestigiar e conhecer de perto os ídolos. Destaca Delisete da Costa, coordenadora do projeto.

 

Treino Cronometrado

 

As baterias das categorias para o treino cronometrado tiveram início às 11h, com a categoria Cadete, seguida das categorias Fórmula 4, Júnior Light e Sprinter.

 

Na Cadete, quem andou na frente foi o piloto Renatinho Júnior, vindo do Rio de Janeiro somente para correr no kartódromo. “Foi a segunda corrida do meu filho no CCK2009, ele teve uma evolução bem rápida porque ele se adaptou bem a pista de alta e estamos bem animados para a corrida.” Diz o pai do piloto, Renato Silveira.

 

Eder Melhorim vai largar na frente na categoria F4. “Por ser novato, não esperava fazer a pole diante de tantos veteranos e vai ser uma grande honra largar na frente.” Conclui o piloto.

 

Na categoria Júnior Light, o piloto Eduardo Vervloet larga na frente depois da desclassificação do piloto Ygor Santana que largará na última posição, devido a realização de uma manutenção em seu kart dentro do parque fechado sem a autorização do comissário técnico. Para Vervloet, “Vai ser uma largada difícil, ainda mais por ser a minha primeira vez na pole posittion em três meses que eu corro de kart, mas vou ter que segurar a pressão dos pilotos tentando me ultrapassar.”

 

João Resegue mais uma vez fazendo a pole position, largará na frente na categoria Sprinter. Resegue ainda diz que espera que a corrida seja bem disputada e está muito confiante na vitória e ao mesmo tempo bem desapontado por causa da última corrida mas que pelo menos a vitória ficou em boas mãos.

 

Corrida

 

Cadete

Renatinho Junior levou a melhor, quase que de ponta a ponta manteve a liderança da prova conseguindo segurar a Letícia Corbacho que vinha atrás com muita sede, inclusive tendo conseguido utrapassa-lo, mas logo sendo ultrapassada. Seguido dos pilotos Caio Cunha, Ygor Lisboa e Renan Zucchi.

 

Fórmula 4

O piloto Eder Melhorim vence de ponta a ponta a categoria Fórmula 4, uma das mais disputadas. Mas o kart de Melhorim, durante a prova apresentou uma falha na fixação do cubo de uma das rodas traseiras, que fez com que o cubo "corresse" 09 (nove) milímetros para fora de sua posição original, e ao passar pela vistoria técnica realizada após a prova, foi reprovado, pois excedia a largura máxima permitida para o kart em justos 09 (nove) milímetros. Uma pena, pois sua corrida, assim como o treino cronometrado, foi simplesmente brilhante!. Com o resultado final, a vitória vai para o piloto Hugo Borges. Em seguida os pilotos Daniel Amorim, Jovino Andrade e Alexandre Manta.

 

Júnior Light

Após um incidente na primeira volta da prova, o kart 80 de Eduardo Vervloet recebeu Bandeira Preta com Circulo Laranja, o que significava que o mesmo deveria entrar no Parque de Manutenção para corrigir algum item de segurança. Como não adentru no Parque Fechado, recebeu a bandeira preta que o tirava da prova. Com isso a vitória caiu nas mãos de Paulo Vitor. O piloto Paulo Vitor ainda destaca que não foi uma corrida difícil, porque conseguiu abrir bastante dos demais pilotos e venceu com uma certa facilidade. Os pilotos Ygor Santana, Ariel Varela e Elio Pimentel vieram em seguida.

 

Sprinter

Logo na primeira volta cinco pilotos da Sprinter se envolveram em um acidente fazendo com que a corrida fosse interrompida. A interrupção da prova durou cerca de 30 (trinta) minutos, para que os mesmos pudessem realizar a manutenção dos itens de segurança dos karts. Os pilotos que realizaram a manutenção, fizeram a nova largada no final do grid, mas por ordem de tempos, de acordo com o treino cronometrado. Com a nova largada o piloto Esthefano Esteves assumiu a ponta seguido de Beppe Hans. Após 3 voltas, Hans ultrapassa Esthefano para poder assumir a ponta e liderar até o final da prova. Eder Melhorim, Eduardo França e Guilherme Jordan passaram em seguida.

Old Mission Point as seen from the lighthouse tower. This is one of the most dramatic manifestations of the falling water levels of the Great Lakes over the last few decades. In 1989, when I first visited this spot, the water came up to the original beach (lower one-third of the photo) and only a few of the large rocks beyond were visible. Now, it is possible to walk perhaps half a mile out beyond the beach. Lake Michigan is very close to its all-time low-water level set in 1964.

BTW: Somehow I have the impression that fireworks used to be more colourful and opulent, when I was a child. Anyone else got this feeling, too?

 

Highest position in Explore on Sunday, January 14, 2007: #495

Fire Commissioner Daniel A. Nigro today appointed Thomas J. Richardson as Chief of Department, the highest-ranking uniformed position in the FDNY, and John J. Hodgens as FDNY Chief of Fire Operations.

 

Chief Richardson is a 40-year veteran who has served as the Chief of Fire Operations since 2019. He will oversee the Department’s 16,000 uniformed Firefighters and EMS personnel and four major agency Bureaus: Fire Operations, EMS Operations, Training and Fire Prevention. Chief Richardson’s appointment is effective immediately. He succeeds former Chief of Department John Sudnik, who is moving to an administrative role within the Department after 35 years of service within the uniformed ranks.

 

As Chief of Fire Operations, Chief Richardson has overseen the day-to-day work of more than 11,000 Firefighters and fire officers, as well as dozens of high-ranking Staff Chiefs, Deputy Chiefs and Battalion Chiefs throughout the COVID-19 pandemic.

 

Chief Richardson joined the FDNY in 1980. His first assignment was at Engine Company 227 in Brooklyn, and he later worked at Ladder Company 102 and Rescue Company 2, also in Brooklyn. In 1990, he was promoted to Lieutenant and worked in Battalion 16 in Harlem for a year before returning to Brooklyn when he was assigned to Engine Company 235 in Bedford Stuyvesant. He was promoted again in 1994 and served as the Captain of Engine Company 234 in Crown Heights and later of Squad Company 270 in Queens. In September of 2000, he was promoted to Battalion Chief.

 

He has been cited for bravery six times in his career, including for the rescue of a 15-year-old boy from a fire in Brooklyn on January 10, 1989. At that incident, Firefighter Richardson was lowered by his lifesaving rope from the roof of a three-story brownstone on Monroe Street and rescued the teenager who was trapped by a fire. He was awarded the Dr. Albert A. Cinelli Medal for his heroic actions.

 

Chief Richardson is a 2010 graduate of the Naval Postgraduate School – Center for Homeland Defense and Security, where he earned a Master of Arts degree in Security Studies. He received his undergraduate degree at SUNY Empire State College. He has also attended both the FDNY’s Advanced Leadership Course (2015), the Fire Officers Management Institute (2009), and the Combatting Terrorism Center at West Point in 2006.

 

Chief Hodgens is a 35-year veteran who has most recently served as Assistant Chief of Fire Operations. As Chief of Fire Operations, Chief Hodgens will oversee the day-to-day work of more than 11,000 Firefighters, Fire Officers and Chiefs. He will also oversee the Department’s highly trained special units including Hazardous Materials, Marine Operations, Rescue Operations, and Specialized Operations Command.

 

Chief Hodgens joined the Department in 1986, and his first assignment was at Ladder Company 11 in Manhattan. He worked there until his promotion to Lieutenant in 1998, when he was transferred to Battalion 41 in Brooklyn, and was later assigned to Ladder Company 157 in Flatbush. Five years later, he was promoted to Captain and worked in the 8th Division on Staten Island, later becoming the officer in charge of Ladder Company 87 in Eltingville. In 2006, he was promoted to Battalion Chief and assigned to Battalion 38, where he and Chief Richardson served together for five years. In 2012, he was promoted to Deputy Chief and served as the Division Commander of Division 8, responsible for fire companies assigned to Staten Island and Brooklyn.

 

He has been cited for bravery twice in his career, including the rescue of an unconscious occupant from a fire in a Lower East Side apartment building in 1992 as a Firefighter in Ladder Company 11. He was awarded the Emerald Society Medal for his heroic actions.

 

He studied at John Jay College of Criminal Justice and Columbia Southern University, receiving Bachelor of Applied Science degree in Fire Science and Emergency Management. He also graduated from the Naval Postgraduate School – Center for Homeland Defense and Security’s Executive Leadership Program (2021), the FDNY’s Advanced Leadership Course (2014) and the Officers Management Institute (2013).

 

Chief Hodgens’ father, John J. Hodgens Sr., also rose to the rank of Chief, and served as the Chief of Fire Prevention. He retired in 1997 as an Assistant Chief after 32 years of service.

Edit 5/2010: When installing longitudinal bulkheads, a couple of these screws had to be repositioned as they were in the way of a longitudinal bulkhead installation footprint. This was a minor problem thus don't fret about about initial placement of these temporary drywall screws.

REF: 1-30-9

The Passat CC is positioned in the premium range of mid-class cars, in this case the sporty sedans and coupés. However, based on its dimensions (4.8 meters length) and uncompromising layout of comfort and quality properties, the car breaks through class boundaries to the upper mid-class. Its core markets are North America, Western Europe and Japan. The Passat CC – built at the German Volkswagen plant in Emden – will initially be introduced in Europe in the second quarter of the year. Following in the fourth quarter will be the USA and Canada, then Japan.

 

Design and dimensions

 

The four-door coupé measures 4,796 millimeters in length, which is 31 millimeters more than the classic Passat. With a width of 1,856 millimeters (an extra 36 millimeters), the Passat CC already ranges in the competitive field of the upper mid-class. Similar to its width, its track width dimensions were also modified. In front it is 1,553 millimeters (an extra 11 millimeters), and in the rear 1,557 millimeters (an extra 16 millimeters). The new Volkswagen measures just 1,420 millimeters in height (lowered by 50 millimeters) – very sports car like.
