FRONT COVER: this was my dad's christmas gift this year...a little 4x4 album that had 2 pages dedicated to each grandchild and what they love most about him. it was super fast and simple once i got a rhythm going...only took me about 2 hours start to finish. i mixed the jan kit with a jb mini album, bingo card and a rubon for the front. each title of the bingo card goes with what each kid said about him (for example: my nephew said he likes everything about him...so i made his card hero. my neice shanie said she liked that he helped her learn new things...so i used the learn card for her)

History of the Stanford Inn Eco-Resort

 

A short review of the less obvious aspects of two decades of innkeeping. Steppin’ Out Magazine publisher Jeanne Francis asked us if we wanted to represent the “real” Mendocino for their “creative landscapes.” issue. We agreed to be featured and the following article was published. We are re-publishing it here, because the story is about what has become most important to us at Stanford Inn Eco-Resort. - Jeff & Joan Stanford

 

Nurturing Energies At Mendocino Stanford Inn

 

“When we came here twenty-three years ago we had no idea the twists and turns our lives would take,” recounted Jeff Stanford who with his wife and partner, Joan, are owner-innkeepers of the Stanford Inn by the Sea in Mendocino. “We had fallen in love with Mendocino as so many others,” Joan added, “but never expected to live here.”

 

The story of how they came to purchase Big River Lodge, now the Stanford Inn, is another story, however, their beginning was auspicious.

 

The sellers Art and Katherine Williams, who still live in the 1850s farmhouse in front of the inn, provided significant and decisive financial help.

 

The Stanfords started modestly moving into a 375 square foot guest room, doing most of the work themselves - from housekeeping to installing fireplaces. In just two years they had two children and were waking each morning to serve their guests breakfast

 

“We wanted to create something special and along the way the land began to influence us.” Jeff shares stories of experience with energy. “This is real stuff; not something I read about or sought out, but something experienced and then researched.”

 

“Transformation takes place here - physical, emotional and spiritual. While we were transforming the buildings and the landscaping, it was as if we had opened up a vein of co-creative potential. It is a manifesting process,” Joan explained. “We love living things and it seemed natural to solve landscaping problems with organic gardens.” Jeff and a close friend began digging double dug garden beds, following the work of John Jeavons. He urged those working in the gardens to become sensitive to the energies there.

 

Jeff is purposefully vague about working with earth energies. “I am not trying to make this mysterious. It isn’t,” he explains. “What I can tell you is how this ‘working’ manifests: When we adjusted the footprints of buildings we planned to build to save a Bishop pine, two smaller trees which were in the way of construction just fell down. There was no storm. It meant for us to go ahead.”

 

However, Jeff is not an ordinary environmentalist. He had mixed feelings regarding the creation of the new Big River State Park in spite of being involved in the effort. “It’s unfortunate that rather than insure healthy, sustainable logging practices, we are forced to remove land from forestry altogether to preserve it.” He argues that it is irresponsible to damage a forest’s biodiversity and over-log. “Taking land out of production here puts incredible pressure on other timber areas.”

 

Over the years, the Stanfords have worked to develop fulltime jobs rather than the part time jobs characteristic of a seasonal resort area. Catch A Canoe, the Inn’s canoe and kayak livery operated for only seven months of the year until Jeff added & Bicycles, too!, a bike shop, permitting the staff to become year around employees.

 

The creation of their California Certified Organic Farm created full time jobs and now supplies the Inn’s restaurant, The Ravens, the area’s only organic vegetarian/vegan restaurant, creating more jobs.

 

“We get a lot of people who come to work here because we are vegetarian, organic. They believe this is a Shangri La. It isn’t. It is hard work,” Jeff explained when asked why some people “don’t make it.” “When I began experiencing earth energies, I read a variety of books including Dorothy MacClean’s description of working with angels at Findhorn, Scotland. Our angels, if you want to call them that, are not etheric, they are hard workers: ‘buff,’ if you know what I mean. They’re tough and those who work with them need to be tough, too.

 

Staff often becomes part of the family and Jeff and Joan encourage them to develop interests and aptitudes and to finish school and go on to college. For years they have worked formally and informally with the schools. Joan works in the schools addressing issues of self esteem and peer counseling. The inn provides work experiences, training in everything from cooking to bike mechanics. Students have come to work to fulfill requirements for graduation or simply for money and some have stayed. One began working as a gardener when he was fifteen. Eventually, Jeff made him manager of the new & Bicycles, too! He helped grow the business, became an expert bike mechanic, and worked in the community to raise money for a skate park which unfortunately has yet to be constructed.

 

The Stanfords look at their operation as a garden or farm. They understand the energies they experience to be nurturing and they believe they must reciprocate by nurturing not only the gardens, but the people with whom they work and the community. They provide meeting rooms at no charge for local non profits and public agencies such as the school district; canoes for local schools’ recreational and educational programs; and their gardens for the local 4-H club where the kids learn propagation, planting, and composting from the staff.

 

Some teachers bring students who have difficulty in traditional schools to experience how the Stanfords work with nature with the idea that a return to nature is healthful.

 

This is life at the Stanford Inn.

A few months back I was asked if one of my photos could be used for The Diplomat, an Australian news magazine calling themselves "the premier international politics and business magazine in the Asian region". They were running an article about chess in India and wanted to use my photo Your move.

 

I just got the magazine and I couldn't be more excited. Sure, it's a small little photo in the story but I got a byline! Regardless of how small, I think it's always a thrill to see your name in print.

The Postcard

 

A postally unused postcard published by Bamforth & Co, Publishers, of Holmfirth and New York. The card has an undivided back. The room in the photograph is in fact the Great Chamber, not the State Dining Room.

 

Chatsworth House

 

Chatsworth House is a stately home in the Derbyshire Dales 3.5 miles (5.6 km) north-east of Bakewell and 9 miles (14 km) west of Chesterfield.

 

It is the seat of the Duke of Devonshire, and has been home to the Cavendish family since 1549. Standing on the east bank of the River Derwent, it looks across to the low hills between the Derwent and Wye valleys.

 

The house is set in expansive parkland and backed by wooded, rocky hills rising to heather moorland. It contains major collections of paintings, furniture, Old Master drawings, neoclassical sculptures, books and other artefacts.

 

Chatsworth has been chosen several times as Great Britain's favourite country house.

 

The Great Chamber

 

A state apartment is a sequence of reception rooms designed as a setting for the ceremonial life of a palace. At Chatsworth it would have accommodated the monarch in the event of a royal visit. Each room is furnished more amply and luxuriously than its predecessor, marking a visitor’s progress towards the royal presence.

 

The Great Stairs lead into the Great Chamber, which was accessible to most members of the household. From there, visitors progressed only as far as their status permitted, through the State Drawing Room and ‘Antichamber’, with only the most distinguished courtiers being admitted to the

most luxuriously appointed room of all, the State Bedchamber, or the final and most private room, the State Closet.

 

However no monarch slept in the State Apartment until George v and Queen Mary visited Chatsworth in 1913.

 

Bamforth & Co.

 

James Bamforth began his career as a manufacturer of lantern slides. In 1890 he started production of illustrated song lyric slides that audiences could sing along to at shows. This quickly became his most popular selling item. In the years following, the Company became the largest producer of life model slides.

 

From this vast photo inventory Bamforth began to publish a variety of postcard types including comics, greetings, propaganda, real photos and views, but especially song sets, many of which were reproduced from lantern slide images.

 

Today they are best remembered for their series of saucy seaside postcards, which may have numbered close to a 100,000 different titles. While this series was begun in 1902, they did not become very popular until the 1930’s.

 

In 1906 Bamforth opened a New York Office at 35 West 21st. Street. By 1910 they had become a Limited company. The Company was sold to E. T. W. Dennis, but in 2000 the rights to their images were purchased by Ian Walker.

Saranno le 2:54, il duo composto dalle sorelle Colette e Hannah Thurlow, ad aprire il concerto dei Garbage ai 10 Giorni suonati.

 

Il loro omonimo album di debutto sarà pubblicato il 28 Maggio per la Fiction Records. 2:54 – il duo composto dalle sorelle Colette e Hannah Thurlow – nel 2012 si è affermato tra le più importanti band in crescita tra quelle in UK. Con l’annuncio del loro eponimo album di debutto, si stanno preparando a svelare il lavoro, lacreatura, che ha occupato gran parte del loro tempo da quando hanno formato la band, e tutti i fandel loro unico e avvolgente sound devono attenderlo con grandi aspettative. Il loro è un miscuglio di idee e influssi che discendono dal rock e dal punk con riferimenti a Queensof the Stone Age e Kyuss. Il fatto che 2:54 abbiano attirato l’attenzione dei fan da ogni parte del mondo non è solo per i lorotesti sofisticati e sfumati, ma soprattutto per la convincente proposta che fanno con la musica. Solo ora, con il loro primo album potremo scoprire l’energia nascosta in ogni loro composizione.

 

Le sorelle Thurlow hanno imparato a suonare la chitarra da sole, ma negli ultimi giorni del 2010 pubblicando il loro primo demo lo-fi fatto in casa, vengono travolte da un’ondata di acclamazioni, era giunto il momento di crescere e creare una vera band. In breve tempo si sono ritrovate in tourcon le migliori band che chiedevano fossero loro ad aprire iconcerti: Warpaint, Wild Beasts, Melissa Auf De Maur, Yuck, The Maccabees e ultimi The BigPink.

Opening-act di Cosmo il 2 febbraio 2019 a Milano, al Mediolanum Forum di Assago, M¥SS KETA.

 

Una vita in Capslock è il titolo del primo album di M¥SS KETA, l’angelo dall’occhiale da sera, la diva definitiva dal volto velato e regina suprema dell’eccesso.

 

Il disco è un vero e proprio viaggio interiore che ha portato M¥SS KETA a esplorare nuove sonorità, mostrando la maturità acquisita in questi anni.

 

L’#UVIC Tour ha preso il via lo scorso aprile dai Magazzini Generali di Milano, la città che l’ha vista nascere e diventare “la stella più brillante dello star system contemporaneo”.

 

Un live esagerato che inaugura il nuovo capitolo della vita di M¥SS KETA, che sceglie definitivamente la selva oscura e perde la retta via per trasformarsi “da domata a domatrice, diventando protagonista di una vita sfrenata, incontrollabile e surreale: Una vita in Capslock.”

 

M¥SS KETA - la cui identità non è mai stata resa nota, così come il volto, mostrato sempre coperto sia durante gli spettacoli dal vivo che negli scatti promozionali - ha esordito nel 2013 con il brano “Milano, sushi e coca”, al quale sono seguiti “In gabbia (non ci vado)”, “Burqa di Gucci”, “Le ragazze di Porta Venezia”: le prime canzoni registrate dall'artista e diffuse al pubblico per mezzo dei social network sono state raccolte, nel 2016, nel "best of" “L’angelo dall’occhiale da sera: col cuore in gola". Nell’estate del 2017 la cantante pubblica per l’etichetta La Tempesta l’EP “Carpaccio ghiacciato”, prodotto da Motel Forlanini, alla realizzazione del quale prendono parte, tra gli altri, Riva e Populous, quest'ultimo coinvolto come produttore del singolo “Xananas”. Il 20 aprile del 2018 esce per Universal Music/La Tempesta il primo album di Myss Keta, "Una vita in Capslock": prodotto da un team composto da RIVA, Populous, Clap Clap, Bot, Zeus! e H-24, il disco vede le partecipazioni di di Birthh ai cori in "Inferno" e "Ultima botta a Pargi" e di Adele Nigro (Any Other) al sax sempre in "Ultima botta a Parigi". Tra gli autori dell'album, oltre alla stessa cantante e RIVA, ci sono Simone Rovellini, Dario Pigato e il collettivo di creativi milanesi raggruppatosi intorno al nome di Motel Forlanini.

 

Secondo quanto ha dichiarato l'artista, sarebbe andata in vacanza con l'avvocato Gianni Agnelli, sarebbe stata la prima musa di Salvador Dalí ed Andy Warhol e avrebbe avuto dei flirt con note personalità della politica e dello spettacolo. Ha anche asserito di aver avuto diciotto anni negli anni settanta e diciannove nel 2001.

 

Alla chitarra, Giungla, pseudonimo di Emanuela Drei, cantautrice di base a Bologna, già voce e chitarra di Heike Has The Giggles ed ex bassista di His Clancyness.

The Postcard

 

A postally unused carte postale published by Marcel Raitre of Rouen.

 

Rouen

 

Rouen is a city on the River Seine in northern France, and is relatively close to the English Channel. Formerly one of the largest and most prosperous cities of medieval Europe, the population of the metropolitan area is 702,945 (2018). People from Rouen are known as Rouennais.

 

“Upon approaching Rouen one is sure to be struck

by the insolent daring of its situation. Lying on a

sloping plain beside the river, it seems to disdain the

well-nigh impregnable site afforded by the steep cliffs

which rise just to the northeast.

The history of the city bears out the audacity of its

location. Through all the centuries, its inhabitants

concerned themselves so continuously in conquering

other peoples that little time was left in which to

consider the security of their own homes.”

-- Charles Hitchcock Sherrill, Stained Glass Tours in France (1908).

 

Rouen was the seat of the Exchequer of Normandy during the Middle Ages. It was one of the capitals of the Anglo-Norman dynasties, which ruled both England and large parts of modern France from the 11th. to the 15th. centuries.

 

From the 13th. century onwards, the city experienced a remarkable economic boom, thanks in particular to the development of textile factories and river trade. Claimed by both the French and the English during the Hundred Years' War, it was in Rouen that Joan of Arc was tried and burned alive.

 

Severely damaged by a wave of bombing in 1944, Rouen nevertheless regained its economic dynamism in the post-war period thanks to its industrial sites and busy seaport, which is the fifth largest in France.

 

Endowed with a prestige established during the medieval era, and with a long architectural heritage in its historical monuments, Rouen is an important cultural capital. Several renowned establishments are located here, such as the Museum of Fine Arts, the Secq des Tournelles Museum, and Rouen Cathedral.

 

“Perhaps the most characteristic feature of Rouen

when viewed from a distance is the great number

of its spires that shoot up above the housetops,

earning for it the sobriquet of the City of Churches.”

-- Charles Hitchcock Sherrill, Stained Glass Tours in France (1908).

 

Sadly not all of those churches are still there because of the ravages of war.

 

Seat of an archdiocese, Rouen also hosts a court of appeal and a university. Every four to six years, Rouen becomes the showcase for a large gathering of sailing ships called "L'Armada"; this event makes the city an occasional capital of the maritime world.

 

Rouen Cathedral

 

Rouen Cathedral was commenced in the 12th. Century on the site of an earlier structure. It has a Roman crypt.

 

The Butter Tower dates from the 16th. century. The name of the Tour de Beurre comes from the fact that butter was banned during Lent, and those who wished to carry on eating it had to donate 6 Deniers Tournois towards the building of the tower. Practically everyone in Rouen must have carried on eating butter in order to fund a tower like that!

 

The Victorian cast-iron Lantern Tower in the centre of the building made the cathedral the tallest building in the world from 1876 until 1880, when it was overtaken by Cologne Cathedral.

 

The Lantern Tower was designed by the architect Jean-Antoine Alavoine who proposed the use of cast iron, a modern material for the time, because it was less combustible than wood, and lighter than stone. The Lantern Tower took 50 years to construct. The 151 metre height of the spire still makes Rouen Cathedral the tallest cathedral in France.

 

The presence of a lantern tower at the crossing of the transept is a frequent feature in churches in Normandy (St. Ouen in Rouen, and Bayeux) and in England (Gloucester, Salisbury, and Winchester).

 

The lantern is in a bulge in the ironwork near the top of the spire, which is surmounted by a weathercock.

 

The Cathedral holds the heart of Richard the Lionheart. His bowels were buried within the church of the Château de Châlus-Chabrol in the Limousin. The cathedral seems to have got the better end of that particular deal!

 

Claude Monet painted a series of studies of the cathedral's façade 1894. Roy Lichtenstein also made a series of pictures of the front of the building.

 

The Cathedral has had to put up with a lot of wilful destruction during its lifetime:

 

- The Calvinists damaged much of what they could easily reach during the religious wars of the 16th. Century - the furniture, tombs, stained glass and statuary.

 

- The French State nationalised the building in the 18th. Century, and sold some of its furniture and statues to make money. The chapel fences were melted down to make guns.

 

- In WW2 the Cathedral was first bombed in 1944, taking 7 bombs. The bombs narrowly missed destroying a key pillar of the Lantern Tower, but damaged most of the south aisle, and destroyed two medieval rose windows. One of the bombs was fortunately a dud and failed to explode.

 

- As a consequence of a subsequent WW II bombing, the north tower, on the left of the façade, was entirely burned. During the fire the stonework calcified and the bells melted, leaving molten metal on the floor. The cathedral is still being restored after the extensive damage incurred during World War II.

 

Also, during the violent storm of December 1999, a copper-clad wooden turret weighing 26 tons fell into the Cathedral and damaged the choir and the stalls. The three other turrets were removed for maintenance and safety purposes before being replaced in 2012.

 

The Execution of Jeanne d'Arc

 

Jeanne d'Arc was executed not far from the Cathedral in the Vieux-Marché on Wednesday the 30th. May 1431.

 

The famous depiction of 19 year old Joan of Arc's execution showing her on top of a pile of wood and straw is wrong.

 

The site for her execution comprised a stake at the centre of a large ring of wood, with a gap left for Joan to be led to the stake. Once she was tied to the stake and the gap closed, she was hidden from sight.

 

One authority has suggested that her body would have burnt in the following sequence: calves, thighs and hands, torso and forearms, breasts, upper chest and face.

 

However in all likelihood she would have died from heatstroke, loss of blood plasma and carbon dioxide poisoning before the fire attacked the upper parts of her body.

 

After Jeanne had expired, the English exposed her charred body so that no-one could claim that she had escaped alive, then burned her body twice more to reduce it to ashes in order to prevent the collection of relics.

 

They then cast her remains into the Seine.

 

A modern church now stands on the site of her execution.
