Our rental condo in Branson, MO was decorated with rustic camping/hunting items. None of us could figure out what the tool was. It is about 30 inches long. The "blade" looking portion is just a thin untapered piece of aluminum. There are springs on the curved metal pieces.
St Andrew, Holborn, is a Church of England church on the northwestern edge of the City of London, on Holborn within the Ward of Farringdon Without.
History
Roman and medieval
Roman pottery was found on the site during 2001/02 excavations in the crypt. However, the first written record of the church itself is dated as 951 (DCCCCLI) in a charter of Westminster Abbey, referring to it as the "old wooden church", on top of the hill above the river Fleet.[2] The Charter's authenticity has been called into question because the date is not within the reign of the King Edgar of England who is granting it. It may be that this is simply a scribal error and that the date should be '959' (DCCCCLIX). A 'Master Gladwin', i.e. a priest, held it after the Norman Conquest and he assigned it to St Paul's Cathedral, but with the proviso that the advowson be granted at 12 pence a year to the Cluniac Order's, St Saviour's foundation of what was to become Bermondsey Abbey. This assignment dates between 1086 and 1089. In about 1200 a deed was witnessed by James, the Parson, Roger, his chaplain, Andrew, the Deacon and also Alexander his clerk. In 1280 one Simon de Gardino bequeathed funds towards the building of a belfry, it is assumed this would be stone and that there were due to be bells to be cast for it.[3]
In the Early Middle Ages the church is referred to as St Andrew Holburnestrate and later simply as St Andrew de Holeburn.[4]
In 1348, John Thavie, a local armourer, "left a considerable Estate towards the support of the fabric forever", a legacy which survived the English Reformation, was invested carefully through the centuries, and still provides for the church's current upkeep. In the 15th century, the wooden church was replaced by a medieval stone one.[5] On the 8th of July 1563, during a severe storm, the steeple of the church was struck and badly damaged by lightning.[6]
16th to 18th century
The medieval St Andrew's survived the 1666 Great Fire of London, saved by a last minute change in wind direction,[7] but was already in a bad state of repair and so was rebuilt by Christopher Wren anyway.[8] In what is his largest parish church, he rebuilt from the foundations (creating the present crypt) and gave the existing medieval stone tower (the only medieval part to survive) a marble cladding. Its rector from 1713 to 1724 was Henry Sacheverell.
Thomas Coram, founder of the Foundlings' Hospital (first set up in a house in Hatton Garden) is buried here, his remains were translated from his foundation in the 1960s. The organ casing (an organ played by Handel), the pulpit and the font is also from the Foundlings' Hospital Chapel's Bloomsbury site.
The church of St George the Martyr Holborn was built between 1703 and 1706, as a chapel of ease for the parish. It became a parish church in its own right in 1723.[9]
19th century
The opening of Holborn Viaduct, 1869
In 1808, writer William Hazlitt married Sarah Stoddart, with Charles Lamb as his best man, and Mary Lamb as a bridesmaid. The twelve-year-old Benjamin Disraeli, the future Prime Minister, was received into the Christian Church in 1817.
It was on the church's steps in 1828 that the surgeon William Marsden found a homeless girl suffering from hypothermia, and sought help for her from one of the nearby hospitals. However, none would take her in, and she died in Marsden's arms; the horror of the experience inspired him to establish the Royal Free Hospital for the poor and destitute. Today the hospital is located in Hampstead.
In the mid 19th century, the Holborn Valley Improvement Scheme bought up the church's North Churchyard (with many of the bodies re-interred in the crypt) and in the City of London Cemetery in Ilford (the latter also being the destination for the bodies from the crypt when it was cleared in 2002–2003) to make way for the Holborn Viaduct, linking Holborn with Newgate, which was opened by Queen Victoria in 1869.[10]
As part of this improvement scheme the Church received compensation to replace its assets and the Gothic architect Samuel Sanders Teulon was commissioned to build a new Rectory and Court House on the South side of the church — this now operates as the offices for the Foundation, the associated Charities and the Archdeaconry of Hackney, as well as the Rectory and the Conference Rooms. Teulon incorporated into the Court Room, the building's main room, a 17th Century fireplace.[11] This was from the 'Quest Room' for the 'below Bars' part of the parish i.e. that lying outside the City boundary sited as part of a block of buildings in the middle of the main street. This block was removed as part of the Holborn Viaduct improvements and explains why Holborn is so wide at this point.[12]
In Charles Dickens's Oliver Twist Bill Sykes looks up at this church's tower (an episode referenced by Iris Murdoch in Under the Net, though from where her character stands such a view is almost impossible).
20th century to present
During the London Blitz, on the night of 7 May 1941, the church was bombed and gutted by German bombs, leaving only the exterior walls and tower.[13] However, instead of demolition which sometimes occurred in similar cases, it was decided after a long delay that it would be restored "stone for stone and brick for brick" to Wren's original designs.
The church re-opened in 1961 as a non-parochial Guild Church intended for serving the local working rather than resident community which had declined as had the City's population as a whole.
In January 2005 a new large icon was installed, made for the site by the Monastic Family Fraternity of Jesus in Vallechiara [1]. The church runs a selection of recitals and lectures, as well as weekly services and evening concerts.
The church was designated a Grade I listed building on 4 January 1950.[14]
In August 2010, St Andrew Holborn's Icon Cross became motorised, allowing the large icon of Jesus on the Cross to be raised and lowered for services.

With the North Light Physiotherapy man of the match memento tucked under an arm, Chris Laker gives to Huddersfield Examiner sports editor Mel Booth his take on the 2016 All Rounder Cricket Sykes Cup Final. Laker's unbeaten 69 at Far End Lane, Honley, helped Delph & Dobcross to a crushing win, with eight wickets and almost half their 50 overs to spare, over outclassed Drakes Huddersfield Premiership division rivals Shepley.
Victory in this 97th annual showpiece added to Delph & Dobcross's recent triumph in the league's T20 competition. With a healthy lead over title rivals Hoylandswaine and Shepley in the Premiership division, Delph & Dobcross are on course to complete a stunning clean sweep of Huddersfield League honours. This was their second Sykes Cup success. The first came in in 2012.
Match statistics: Shepley 108 off 45.1 overs (Daniel Anderson 48, Nathan Jones 4-23, Wasim Qasim 2-15, Shakir Muhammad 2-30) lost by eight wickets to Delph & Dobcross 112-2 off 26.4 overs (Chris Laker 69 not out, Shreevats Goswami 23 not out, Nasir Jamal 2-29).

“You must constantly ask yourself these questions: Who am I around? What are they doing to me? What have they got me reading? What have they got me saying? Where do they have me going? What do they have me thinking? And most important, what do they have me becoming? Then ask yourself the big question: Is that okay? Your life does not get better by chance, it gets better by change.”

A full interview with the Israeli painter Raphael Perez (in Hebrew Rafi Peretz) about the ideas behind the naive painting, resume, personal biography and CV
Question: Raphael Perez Tell us about your work process as a naive painter?
Answer: I choose the most iconic and famous buildings in every city and town that are architecturally interesting and have a special shape and place the iconic buildings on boulevards full of trees, bushes, vegetation, flowers.
Question: How do you give depth in your naive paintings?
Answer: To give depth to the painting, I build the painting with layers of vegetation, after those low famous buildings, followed by a tall avenue of trees, and behind them towers and skyscrapers, in the sky I sometimes put innocent signs of balloons, kites.
A recurring motif in some of my paintings is the figure of the painter who is in the center of the boulevard and paints the entire scene unfolding in front of him, also there are two kindergarten teachers who are walking with the kindergarten children with the state flags that I paint, and loving couples hugging and kissing and family paintings of mother, father and child walking in harmony on the boulevard.
Question: Raphael Perez What characterizes your naive painting?
Answer: Most naive paintings have the same characteristics
(Definition as it appears in Wikipedia)
• Tells a simple story to absorb from everyday life, usually with humans.
• The representation of the painter's idealization to reality - the mapping of reality.
• Failure to maintain perspective - especially details even in distant details.
• Extensive use of repeating patterns - many details.
• Warm and bright colors.
• Sometimes the emphasis is on outlines.
• Most of the characters are flat, lack volume
• No interest in texture, expression, correct proportions
• No interest in anatomy.
• There is not much use of light and shadow, the colors create a three-dimensional effect.
I find these definitions to be valid for all my naive paintings
Question: Raphael Perez Why do you mainly choose the city of Tel Aviv?
Answer: I was born in Jerusalem, the capital city which I love very much and also paint,
I love the special Bauhaus buildings in Tel Aviv, the ornamental buildings that were built a century ago in the 1920s and 1930s, the beautiful boulevards, towers and modern skyscrapers give you the feeling of the hustle and bustle of a large metropolis and there are quite a few low and tall buildings that are architecturally fascinating in their form the special one
Also, the move to Tel Aviv, which is the capital of culture, freedom, and secularism, allowed me to live my life as I chose, to live in a relationship with a man, Jerusalem, which is a traditional city, it is more complicated to live a homosexual life, also, the art world takes place mainly in the city of Tel Aviv, and it is possible that from a professional point of view, this allows I can support myself better in Tel Aviv than in any other city in Israel.
Question: raphael perez are the paintings of the city of Tel Aviv different from the paintings of the city of Jerusalem
Answer: Most of the paintings of Jerusalem have an emphasis on the color yellow, gold, the color of the old city walls, the subjects I painted in Jerusalem are mainly a type of idealization of a peaceful life between Jews and Arabs and paintings that deal with the Jewish religious world, a number of paintings depict all shades of the currents of Judaism of today
In contrast, the Tel Aviv paintings are more colorful, with skyscrapers, the sea, balloons and more secular motifs
Question: Raphael Perez Tell us about which buildings and their architects you usually choose in your city paintings
Answer: My favorite buildings are those that have a special shape that anyone can recognize and are the symbols of the city and you will give several examples:
In the city of Tel Aviv, my favorite buildings are: the opera building with its unusual geometric shape, the Yisrotel tower with its special head, the Hail Bo Shalom tower that for years was the symbol of the tallest building in Tel Aviv, the Levin house that looks like a Japanese pagoda, the burgundy-colored Nordeau hotel with the special dome at the end of the building, A pair of Alon towers with the special structure of the sea, Bauhaus buildings typical of Tel Aviv with the special balconies and the special staircase, the Yaakov Agam fountain in Dizengoff square appears in a large part of the paintings, many towers that are in the stock exchange complex, the Aviv towers and other tall buildings on Ayalon, in some of the paintings I took plans An outline of future buildings that need to be built in the city and I drew them even before they were built in reality,
In the paintings of Jerusalem, I mainly chose the area of the Old City and East Jerusalem, a painting of the walls of the Old City, the Western Wall, the Church of the Holy Sepulcher, the El Akchea Mosque, the Tower of David, most of the famous churches in the city, the right hand of Moses, in most of the paintings the Jew is wearing a blue shirt with a red male cord I was in the youth movement and the Arab with a galabia, and in the paintings of the religious public then, Jews with black suits and white shirts, tallitas, kippahs, special hats, synagogues and more
I also created three paintings of the city of Haifa and one painting of Safed
In the Haifa paintings I drew the university, the Technion, the famous Egged Tower, the Sail Tower, well-known hotels, of course the Baha'i Gardens and the Baha'i Temple, Haifa Port and the boats and other famous buildings in the city
Question: Have you created series of other cities from around the world?
Answer: I created series of New York City with all the iconic and famous buildings such as: the Guggenheim Museum, the famous skyscrapers - the Chrysler Building, the Empire State Building, Lincoln Center, the famous synagogue in the city, the Statue of Liberty, the flags of the United States and other famous buildings
Two paintings of London and all its famous sites, Big Ben, famous monuments, the Ferris wheel, Queen Elizabeth and her family, the double bus, the famous public telephone, palaces, famous churches, well-known monuments
I created 4 naive paintings of cities in China, a painting of Shanghai, two paintings of the city of Suzhou and a painting of the World Park in the city of Beijing... I chose the famous skyline of Shanghai with all the famous towers, the famous promenade, temples and old buildings, two Paintings of the city of Suzhou with the famous canals, bridges, special gardens, towers and skyscrapers of the city

I tried to get a photo of the butterfly with the wings open, but I failed miserably and had 66 deletes! The wings would only open briefly, and I missed it every time! If I see the butterfly again, I will keep trying as they are really quite colorful!
According to Wikipedia:
"The color and textured appearance of the underside of its wings combine to provide camouflage that resembles a dead leaf. The silver mark on the underside of the hindwing is broken into two parts, a curved line and a dot, creating a ?-shaped mark that gives the species its common name.
As an adult butterfly, the question mark seeks out rotting fruit, tree sap, dung, or carrion as food sources. Only when these are unavailable do question marks visit flowers for nectar."
Hmmm... so does this mean I should leave the dog poop in the garden? No! Definitely not! I would rather photograph the butterfly on a flower rather than dog poop!
Using only song names from ONE ARTIST, cleverly answer these questions. Pass it on. Try not to repeat a song title. It's a lot harder than you think! but it is fun.

On Tuesday, December 27, 2016, Six Medal of Honor recipients were the guests of honor at the Military Bowl college football game. The Veterans spent time speaking with cadets from military service academies and participated in a question and answer session before taking part in the official coin toss at the game between Wake Forest and Temple Universities.
For many college students, driving a Mercedes Benz convertible is a special occasion. But it’s even more special when your passenger is an American hero. Cadets and midshipmen from military service academies – U.S. Military Academy, U.S. Naval Academy, U.S. Coast Guard Academy and the U.S. Air Force Academy – had the privilege of escorting seven Medal of Honor recipients throughout the 2016 Military Bowl activities. They drove the Medal of Honor recipients in the parade, mingled with them at a reception at the Naval Academy stadium, and accompanied them down to the football field for the game’s opening coin toss. “It was not so much about the car, honestly. It was just having the time and being able to be along for the ride, as everybody continued to say, ‘Oh, that’s a Medal of Honor recipient! Oh, that’s such a great thing!’” said Chris Wilson, a “firstie” at the U.S. Air Force Academy, in his final year of instruction. Wilson drove Harvey C. “Barney” Barnum, Jr. in the parade. Barnum, a Marine Corps Veteran, was awarded for heroism in action at Ky Phu, Quang Tin Province, Republic of Vietnam, in December 1965. “The comments along the route were something, weren’t they?” said Barnum. “It’s just amazing to see. For you sir, I didn’t see it faze you. You thought of it as thanking others for their service, for their time. And I can’t ever forget that,” said Wilson. “That was the most expensive equipment I’ve ever had to take care of,” said Wilson of the Mercedes Benz convertible, in which he drove Barnum down the parade route. But it will only be the most expensive equipment he handles until he commissions in May and heads to pilot training. While they spent time together throughout the day, Barnum imparted some leadership knowledge on the future military officer. “Being a senior, he’s ready to go out and put on gold bars. The whole thing I tell them all is never be afraid to try something. If it doesn’t work, stop, back up and try something else. Don’t ever quit. Take the word ‘failure’ out of your vocabulary,” said Barnum. The idea of having cadets and midshipmen be a part of the military bowl happened when John Pomeroy, a 1970 Air Force Academy graduate, made the connection in 2011. He found out what the Military Bowl was doing with the Medal of Honor recipients and thought it would be a great opportunity for the service academy students to get to hear their stories first hand. “It’s fun for both sides. The Medal of Honor recipients enjoy the young men and women in uniform. They enjoy interacting with them. It seems to be an experience they don’t normally get during the year. For the cadets and midshipmen, it’s just inspirational for them. I know one West Point student said this was one of the most motivating experiences he’s had at West Point. They seem to thrive off this type of environment,” said Pomeroy. Throughout the day the cadets and midshipmen got to hear from Medal of Honor recipients who served in conflicts that spanned over 75 years. Like Hershel Woodrow “Woody” Williams, a Marine Corps Veteran and the last living Medal of Honor recipient from the Battle of Iwo Jima in World War II. Or the most recent recipient, Edward C. Byers, Jr., Senior Chief, Special Warfare Operator (SEAL), U.S. Navy. Byers, who is still serving on active duty, was awarded for heroism in action in Qarghah’i District of Laghman Province, Afghanistan. And Florent A. Groberg, awarded for heroism in action in Asadabad, Kunar Province, Afghanistan in 2012. No matter which conflict they served in, there was a common message that they imparted to the future generation. Work hard. Don’t take shortcuts. Don’t get complacent. Rely on your training. Serve with pride and humility. “Stay out of your comfort zone as much as possible. The more you stay out of your comfort zone the more you grow as a person,” said Byers. “These are the individuals that I’m going to be looking for to support my country when I can’t do anything about it, and really, to lead the way for my children as they grow older….It’s a great responsibility and they have to understand that. And they do.” ~ Medal of Honor recipient Florent Groberg. As past generations look to the future military leaders, they pass the torch that has been burning since the founding of our country. “These are the individuals that I’m going to be looking for to support my country when I can’t do anything about it, and really, to lead the way for my children as they grow older. They’re going to be protecting me. They’re going to be protecting my family. It’s a great responsibility and they have to understand that. And they do. They made a decision at a young age to really be elite,” said Groberg. “I love it because I look back and know what they’re going to be going through, and I wish I could do it all over again. You know, the future of our country lies in their hands. Us guys are getting a little gray; we gotta be able to pass on the authority and responsibility. And that’s what the military is all about. Whether it’s for three or 30 years, your life is going to change,” said Barnum. VA Blog post by Melissa Heintz. VA photos by Robert Turtil
He spoke, and as upon the bed she lay,
Trembling amidst new thoughts, he sent a ray
Of finest love unto her inmost heart,
Till, murmuring low, she strove the night to part,
And like a bride who meets her love at last,
When the long days of yearning are o’erpast,
She reached to him her perfect arms unseen,
And said, "O Love, how wretched I have been!
What hast thou done?" And by her side he lay,
Till just before the dawning of the day.
This is the winter coloring pattern. In the summer pattern the hind wing is much darker.
"In all affairs it's a healthy thing now and then to hang a question mark on the things you have long taken for granted."
Bertrand Russell

I hardly ever study the churches I am about to visit. Rather, rely on my first impressions, and how the multitude of elements hang together.
This does mean, sometimes, I have missed obvious details. But for the most part, I notice what is unusual at the time.
And then upon returning home, I research the building and the history of the parish, and my main two resources are posted below.
Also, churchcrawling can be a lonely hobby, spending hours and hours pouring over details with hardly anyone to share it with. Sometimes, on a Saturday morning, we weekly church clean is in progress, and one or two wardens might ask you questions.Even fewer of them might be interested.
So, in Wormshill, talking to the ringers, I was told that there was a coffee morning on at Frinsted, and a warden might be present.
This was after I lamented that the church was locked again.
So, drive back the two miles and call in the village hall. And ask about the key.
So, this is what we did.
This resulted in a lady taking me back to her house to meet her husband, Malcolm.
Can I see inside the church?
Why do you want to do that?
I explain the Kent church project.
Are you interested in the building or fittings?
And thinking that this was because of thefts, I said if needed I would not snap the fittings if needed.
But Malcolm backtracked. Oh no, you can photograph what you want to.
Meet me at the porch in ten minutes.
So, we did.
The church was dark inside, and Malcolm told us about his church. Very proud he was too.
And it became clear why.
The chancel and north chapel were decorated.
Decorated in the English Gothic Revival, by Hussey and then, later, Scott. These have been recently renovated, using the original stencils.
It was incredible. Like The Grange transported to the countryside. I think Pugin would have liked it.
Sadly, in the north chapel, a plaster panel had dropped off, so the pews were covered and access restricted, but Malcolm unlocked the door and let us in.
I walked round with a huge smile on my face, waxing lyrical about the church, and Malcolm enjoyed telling us the story of his church.
Without doubt, the best church visit this, or any other year.
------------------------------------------
Not for those wishing to find a medieval church, although there is evidence of an old building here in the form of a Norman window and crownpost roof. It is of interest that the nineteenth-century work carried out first by Hussey (1856) and then by Scott (1870) for the Pemberton Leigh family is in complete contrast to the work commissioned at nearby Kingsdown by the family at the same time (see separate entry). The second phase of work included the wonderful stencilling of the church, recently restored to the designs of G.G. Scott Jr. The majority of the furnishings are also Victorian and show the quality that only a fortune could buy in post-industrialised England

-----------------------------------------
FRINSTED
LIES the next parish north westward from Wichling. It is written in Domesday, Fredenestede; in antient deeds, Freyhanestede; and in later ones, most usually, Frensted, alias Wronsted.
That part of this parish northward of the church is in the division of East Kent, but the church itself, and the remaining part of it is in that of West Kent.
THE PARISH extends on both sides of the valley, called Syndall, or Newnham-bottom, through which the high road leads from Ospringe, through Doddington and Newnham, to Hollingborne hill, on each side of which the hills rise very steep, the summits of them being in general covered with wood grounds. On the east side of this valley, on the hill close to the woods, is Rinsted-court; and on the hill on the west, Yokes court, and Madams-court; and still further westward, the village and church. The soil of it is poor, and covered with flints, much like that of Wichling, before described; but the rising hills on each side of the valley are mostly chalk.
There is a district in this parish, consisting of about fifty acres of land, called Minis-hill, over which the manor of Whornes-place, near Rochester, claims jurisdiction.
This parish was part of those possessions which William the Conqueror gave his half-brother Odo, bishop of Baieux, under the general title of whose lands it is thus entered in the book of Domesday, taken about the year 1080:
Hugh, the grandson of Herbert, and Adelold the chamberlain, holds of the bishop (of Baieux) Fredenestede. It was taxed at one suling. The arable land is three carucates. In demesne . . . . Three villeins having seven oxen. There is a church, and two acres of meadow and an half, and wood for the pannage of two hogs. It is, and was worth, separately, twenty shillings. Leunin held it of king Edward.
About four years after taking the above survey, the bishop was disgraced, and the king his brother seized on this estate, among the rest of his possessions, which were all consiscated to the crown. After which, this manor came into the possession of Jeffry de Peverel, and with other lands, made up the barony of Peverel, as it was then called, being assigned to him for the desence of Dover-castle, of which it was held by him in capite by barony.
Nicholas de Gerund afterwards held this manor, with the advowson of the church, of which he died possessed in the 52d year of Henry III. holding it of the king in capite, as one knight's see. After which, the family of Crombwell became possessed of it; one of whom, Richard de Crombwell, was owner of it in the 8th year of Edward II. being younger brother of Sir John de Crombwell, knight-banneret. Ralph de Crombwell, his successor, next year, obtained a charter of free warren for his lands in this parish, and at his seat here, since called Meriam-court, and now commonly, Madams-court.
In the next reign of king Edward III. this estate was again come into the possession of the family of Gerund, in which, however, it did not remain long, for Richard le Gerund leaving an only daughter and heir Maud, she carried this manor and seat in marriage to Sir Henry de Chalshunt, who in the 20th year of that reign, paid aid for the manor of Wrensted, alias Frensted, with its appurtenances, holding it by the like service, as did his descendant Henry de Chalfhunt, at his death, in the 9th year of Richard II. when it was found, that John Bedeford, Roger Tournour, Sibill Jarconville, and Agnes, daughter of Walter at Style, were his heirs and next of kin; at which time it was likewise found, that this manor was held of the manor of Ospringe.
Soon after which, this manor, with the mansionhouse, called Wrensted, and now most usually Rinstedcourt, with Meriam, or Madams-court, and the advowson of the church of Wrensted, was conveyed by sale to Robert le Hadde, who was resident here in the reign of Henry IV. being descended from ancestors who had been resident at Chart Sutton, in this county, for many generations, Rob. Hadde being of that parish in the reign of Henry III. In his descendants this estate continued down to Henry Hadde, esq. of Frinsted, who died possessed of this manor, with the advowson of the church, and the other estates above-mentioned, in the 23d year of queen Elizabeth, leaving two sons, Arnold and Matthew, who was counsellor-at-law, of Lincoln's-inn, of which he was rector, the former of whom succeeded him here, and two years afterwards, anno 25 Elizabeth, alienated this manor, with its appurtenances, together with the rest of his estates in this parish, to Edward and George Hills. Arnold Hadde, esq. after the sale of this estate, resided in St. Alphage parish, in Canterbury, as his descendants did for several generations afterwards, till the end of the last century, and several of them lie buried in that church. They bore for their arms, Gules, three bucks heads caboshed, or, borned argent, between the borns of each a cross patee fitchee, argent. (fn. 1)
Edward and George Hills joined in the sale of the manor of Frinsted, with Rinsted, alias Wrensted-court, and the lands belonging to it, to Edward Jackman, esq. of Hornchurch, in Essex, and he, in the 5th year of James I. passed it away to Oliver Style, esq. of Watringbury, who died in 1622. Upon the death of whose descendant, Sir Thomas Style, bart. who died in 1702, an agreement was entered into by his heirs for a partition of his estates among them, which was confirmed by an act, passed anno 2 and 3 of queen Anne. In this partition, the manor of Frinsted, with Rinstedcourt, was allotted to Margaret, his only daughter by his second wife, who in 1716 sold it to Mr. Abraham Tilghman, descended from those of Snodland. He was a commissioner of the navy, and of the victuallingoffice, and dying in 1729, was buried in the south isle of this church, where there is a monument erected to his memory. He bore for his arms, Per fess, sable, and argent, a lion rampant, counterchanged, crowned, or. He was succeeded here by his son Abraham Tilghman, esq. who resided here till his death in 1779. He left by Olivia his wife, one of the two daughters and coheirs of Charles Finch, esq. of Chatham, one daughter Elizabeth, who married the Rev. Pierrepont Crompe, of Newnham, in Gloucestershire, son and heir of Thomas Cromp, esq. of Newnham, in that county, by Rebecca, the other daughter and coheir of Charles Finch, esq. He bore for his arms, Or, a chevron, voided gules, on a chief of the second, three escallops of the first. He afterwards resided here, and died in 1797, leaving his widow surviving, who now resides here, and one son Robert-Thomas, and a daughter, Henrietta Maria, the former of whom is now entitled to the see of this estate.
MADAMS-COURT, formerly called Meriams-court, as has been already mentioned, passed from Arnold Hadde in the 25th year of queen Elizabeth, with the rest of his estates in this parish, to Edward and George Hills, and they joined in the sale of Meriam, or Madams-court, to Archer, from which name it passed, in the reign of Charles I. to Thatcher, by a female heir of which family it passed in marriage to Batcheler, some of whose descendants lie buried in this church, one of whom, Mr. William Batcheler, at length alienated it to James Chapman, gent. of Milton, whose son Ed ward Chapman, esq. of Otterden, died in 1765, leaving by his wife, daughter of the Rev. Mr. Dennis, of Leyborne, one son, James Chapman, esq. now of Faversham, who is the present owner of it.
YOKES-COURT is a manor in this parish, which in the reign of Henry III. was part of the possessions of Fulk de Peyforer, whose descendant William de Peyforer, in the 20th year of Edward III. paid aid for it as half a knight's fee, which he then held at le Yoke, in this parish, of the honor of Ledes.
He soon afterwards alienated this manor to Roger Northwood, who died in the 35th year of that reign possessed of this manor of Yoke, held of the king in capite, by the service of making his suit at the gate of the castle of Leeds, from month to month, in lieu of all other service whatsoever. His descendant, John Northwood, esq. died possessed of it anno 4 Henry V. leaving his two sisters his coheirs, who entitled their husbands, John Barley, esq. of Hertfordshire, and Sir John Norton, of this county, to their respective shares of their brother's estates.
From one of them this manor was alienated to John Dyggs, esq. of Barham, whose descendant James Dyggs, esq. of Barham, died in the 27th year of Henry VIII. then holding this manor in capite by knight's service. He left two sons, John, who was of Barham, and Leonard, whose descendants were of Chilham-castle. His son John Dyggs, the eldest, succeeded him in this manor, and died in his life-time, leaving a son William, whose son Christopher Diggs, esq. of Barham, having levied fines of all his lands anno 15 and 17 Elizabeth, quickly afterwards alienated this manor to Archer, from which name, in the reign of Charles I. it passed by sale to Thatcher, of which name there were inhabitants of the adjoining parish of Wormsell, as appears by the parish register there, as early as king Henry the VIIIth's reign. These of Frinsted bore for their arms, Gules, a cross moline, argent, on a chief, or, three grasshoppers proper. In the name of Thatcher this manor continued, till by a female heir Mary, daughter of Thomas Thatcher, it went in marriage to Mr. Henry Bing, of Wickhambreux, on whose death, his son Mr. John Bing, became possessed of it. He died in 1766, and was buried in the north chancel of this church, leaving one son Henry, and two daughters; Mr. Henry Bing, the son, succeeded his father in the possession of this manor, of which he is the present owner. A court baron is held for it.
Charities.
JOHN WIATT, of Milsted, by will in 1722, gave the moiety of several pieces of land in Milsted, Frinsted, and Wormsell, containing about twenty acres, for sending four poor children yearly to school, to learn to read, vested in the minister and churchwardens, and of the annual value of 2l. 4s.
The number of poor constantly relieved are about sixteen; casually twelve.
FRINSTED is, within the ECCLESIASTICAL JURISDICTION of the diocese of Canterbury, and deanry of Sutton.
The church, which is dedicated to St. Dunstan, is situated westward from the village, but in the northern part of the parish; it consists of two isles and two chancels, the northern one belonging to the estate of Yokes-court, in it are several memorials for the Thatchers and the Bings. In the south isle is a monument for Abraham Tilghman, esq. who died in 1729. Against the north wall in this chancel, in a recess, is an antient tomb, with an engrailed arch over it. It has a square beacon tower at the west end of it, in which hang four bells. In the church yard is an altar tomb; under it, in a vault, lie buried A. Tilghman, esq. who died in 1779, and Olivia his wife; and the Rev. Mr. Crompe, and Henrietta-Maria, his daughter.
¶This church was formerly appendant to the manor of Frinsted, as has already been mentioned, and seems to have passed with it from Arnold Hadde, esq. toge ther with the rest of his estates in this parish, to Edward and George Hills, who alienated the manor of Frinsted, with Rinsted-court, to Edward Jackman, esq. and Meriam-court, or Madams-court, as it is now called, together with the advowson of the rectory of Frinsted, to Archer, from which name it passed with it, to Thatcher, in whose descendants it continued till Mary, daughter of Thomas Thatcher, carried it in marriage to Mr. Henry Bing, whose descendant, Mr. Henry Bing, gent. of this parish, is the present possessor of it.
In Strype's Stow's Survey, it is said, that in the reign of Edward III. the church of Frethensted, in the diocese of Canterbury, belonged to St. Catherine's hospital, near the Tower; and Tanner in his Monasticon, says, in patent 3 Edward III. p. 2, m. 2, is a licence for appropriating that church to the above-mentioned hospital, which cannot be reconciled to the records above-quoted, in which the advowson of the church of Frinsted is found to have been vested in the several owners of the manor of Frinsted.
This rectory is valued in the king's books at 9l. 11s. 8d. and the yearly tenths at 19s. 2d. and is of the yearly certified value of 71l. 7s. 4d.
In 1640 it was valued at sixty pounds. Communicants fifty.
❕ CONSEJOS PARA BUSCAR PERROS PERDIDOS ❔ #Perdido #Encontrado #sebusca #extraviado #LealesOrg 🔗 + Info, pulsar la foto bit.ly/2hk6JUx ℹ️ Cómo encontrar a un perro perdido 4 partes:Busca en tu casaComienza a buscar afuera de la casaColoca anuncios para encontrar a tu mascotaEvita que tu perro vuelva a perderse Perder a tu perro es una situación muy aterradora. Sin embargo, lo más probable es que sí lo encuentres. Es muy importante mantener la calma, de modo que puedas buscar a tu mascota sin que la ansiedad nuble tu juicio. Respira profundo y utiliza este artículo para ayudarte a encontrar a tu peludo amigo. Parte1Busca en tu casa 1 Pregunta a los miembros de tu familia. Si no has visto a tu perro por un buen rato, pregúntales a los miembros de tu familia. Es posible que el perro se haya escondido en una de las habitaciones o que algún familiar lo haya llevado a dar un paseo. Con ello también podrás determinar cuándo fue la última vez que alguien vio al perro. 2 Usa algo que atraiga a tu perro y lo haga salir de su escondite. Los perros adoran la comida, de modo que podrías hacerlo salir si agitas la bolsa de golosinas o de comida. Pasea por la casa con la bolsa para que tu perro escuche el sonido. 3 Busca metódicamente. Una vez que hayas determinado que tu perro no está en algún lugar visible, comienza a buscar de forma metódica en tu casa. Revisa cada habitación con cuidado, mirando debajo de las camas y en los armarios. Asegúrate de buscar en todas las habitaciones, cuartos de baño y armarios de la casa. No te olvides de mirar debajo y detrás de los muebles. 4 Busca en lugares inverosímiles. Los perros asustados pueden encontrar lugares impensables para esconderse. Mira detrás y dentro de los electrodomésticos, ya que los perros pueden esconderse detrás de refrigeradores o meterse en las secadoras de ropa. También debes asegurarte de revisar detrás de los paneles de acceso e incluso en áreas tales como el armario del calentador de agua. Los perros pequeños pueden meterse hasta debajo de sillas reclinables (detrás del reposapiés) o detrás de los libros en un estante. 5 Llámalo. Debido a que lo estás buscando, debes asegurarte de gritar su nombre. Tu perro podría dormir plácidamente en una esquina y no escucharte de inmediato. Parte2Comienza a buscar afuera de la casa 1 Comienza tan pronto como sea posible. Vas a tener mayores probabilidades de encontrar a tu perro durante las primeras 12 horas posteriores a su escape. De hecho, algunos expertos señalan que casi el 90 % de los animales domésticos se logran recuperar si el dueño busca en las primeras 12 horas. 2 Grita el nombre de tu mascota a menudo. Tu perro sabe su nombre y podría responder a este llamado. Además, esto le dará una señal audible de tu ubicación. Tampoco olvides utilizar apodos. Si lo llamas "Pookie" más a menudo que "Princesa", trata de alternar entre los dos. 3 Lleva la bolsa de golosinas. La comida es un gran motivador para cualquier perro, así que es mejor llevar la bolsa de golosinas. Agita la bolsa a medida que avanzas y di en voz alta el nombre que utilizas para ellas. Por ejemplo, si les dices galletas, grita: "¡Fido! ¿Quieres tus galletas?". 4 Utiliza el silencio. El momento más efectivo para buscar con bolsas de golosinas y llamar a tu perro por su nombre es cuando todo está tranquilo afuera. Inténtalo temprano en la mañana, de modo que tu perro se sienta más seguro para salir. En este momento, tu perro ya podría estar en busca de comida. 5 Conviértete en un detective. Durante la búsqueda, trata de encontrar rastros de tu perro. Puedes buscar huellas en el barro o las heces que dejó en el camino. Revisa si hay mechones de pelo. Estas pistas pueden ayudarte a ir en la dirección correcta. 6 Mira en lugares altos y bajos. Tu perro podría meterse debajo de un pórtico, subir encima de coches o esconderse detrás de cobertizos. Revisa en todos los espacios pequeños que encuentres, ya que los perros pueden arreglárselas para meterse en áreas pequeñas. Utiliza una linterna para ver en áreas oscuras. No olvides mirar detrás y debajo de arbustos. 7 Escucha con atención mientras hablas. Tienes que escuchar los sonidos que tu perro pudiese hacer, como un gemido, un ladrido o un crujido. Tu perro podría llevarte hacia él, si escuchas con mucho cuidado. 8 Deja sus cosas preferidas afuera. Pon su juguete favorito afuera, ya que eso podría atraerlo de regreso a casa. Además, trata de dejar algo con tu olor afuera, como una camisa sucia, lo cual también podría incentivarlo a salir de su escondite. 9 Piensa en los últimos acontecimientos de tu vecindario. Es decir, echa un vistazo a casas recién construidas o abandonadas, ya que los perros podrían buscar refugio en su interior. Además, trata de recordar si alguien se ha mudado desde que tu perro se escapó, pues los perros a veces se meten en camionetas en movimiento. 10 Utiliza tu coche. Es mejor buscar en el exterior de tu casa a pie para poder revisar espacios reducidos. Sin embargo, si no lo encuentras, usa tu coche para dar una vuelta por el vecindario. Conduce despacio y avanza por las calles de forma sistemática. Mantén las ventanas abajo, llamando a tu mascota a medida que avanzas. 11 Empieza cerca, pero ve cada vez más lejos. Algunos perros tienden a correr cuando salen. Definitivamente debes buscar en un radio de 1,6 a 3,2 km (1 a 2 millas) el primer día; sin embargo, los perros pueden correr hasta 8 o 16 km (5 o 10 millas). Si bien es raro que los perros se alejen 16 km (10 millas), no te hará daño ampliar el área de la búsqueda. 12 Pide ayuda. Cuanta más gente te ayude a buscar, más probabilidades tendrás de encontrar a tu perro. Pide ayuda a tus familiares, amigos y vecinos, y coordina la búsqueda. Es decir, establece áreas de búsqueda para cada persona, de modo que no pierdas el tiempo peinando las mismas áreas. 13 Habla con tus vecinos. Tus vecinos son un gran recurso para ayudarte a encontrar a tu perro. Ellos podrían haberlo visto correr en una dirección en particular o alguno podría incluso haberlo acogido en su casa si perdió su collar. Ve de puerta en puerta en tu calle y lleva una foto para mostrársela. También debes asegurarte de preguntarle a gente como el cartero, que cubre una gran cantidad de terreno en tu vecindario. 14 Avisa a los refugios o perreras locales. Es decir, notifica al refugio de tu localidad que tu perro se ha perdido, de modo que el personal pueda estar alerta con respecto a tu perro. Tampoco olvides llamar a las agencias privadas. Además, tómate el tiempo para visitar el refugio al menos una vez al día durante los primeros días posteriores a su pérdida, para que puedas comprobar si está allí. Visítalo de vez en cuando si tu perro no vuelve en uno o dos días. 15 Busca en clínicas veterinarias. Llama al veterinario, especialmente si el collar de identificación de tu perro tenía información de su veterinario. Sin embargo, también debes verificar en otras clínicas de emergencia en la localidad para asegurarte de que tu mascota no haya sido llevada a otra clínica por alguna lesión. 16 Debes tratar de mantener tu seguridad mientras buscas. No busques en la noche por tu cuenta y lleva linternas y teléfonos móviles durante la búsqueda. 17 No dejes de buscarlo. Los perros pueden sobrevivir mucho tiempo fuera de casa. Podrías encontrarla meses después, por lo que es mejor seguir buscando y revisando en los refugios o perreras locales. Parte3Coloca publicaciones para encontrar a tu perro 1 Pon carteles. Imprime carteles con la foto de tu perro, su descripción, su nombre y tu número de teléfono y email, si tienes. No olvides añadir el área aproximada en la que desapareció, aunque no debes dar una dirección exacta. También debes incluir la fecha. En la propia ficha de Leales.org tienes la opción para imprimir el cartel en PDF. Pon el mensaje clave en la parte superior. Es decir, escribe "PERRO PERDIDO" con una fuente en negrita y legible en la parte superior del cartel. El resto del mensaje debe ser corto y conciso. Una foto a color funcionará mejor que una en blanco y negro. Asegúrate de elegir una donde se pueda ver claramente la cara de tu perro y sus características distintivas. Trata de usar un papel de colores brillantes, para que llame más la atención. También puedes tratar de ofrecer una recompensa por la mascota, lo cual puede ayudarte a motivar a la gente. Trata de pegar los carteles en las paradas de autobuses, tiendas concurridas (supermercados, panaderías...), y en las farolas. Trabaja en un radio de 1,6 a 3,2 km (1 a 2 millas) a partir del lugar donde posiblemente se escapó tu perro, aunque tampoco hará daño ponerlos más lejos. Los perros pueden llegar muy lejos. Los lugares para personas con perros son bastante apropiados, como las tiendas de animales de compañía y las clínicas veterinarias, pero trata de hacerlo en cualquier lugar que visiten muchas personas, como lavanderías y estaciones de servicio. Siempre debes pedir permiso antes de colocar un cartel en un negocio. Evita dar absolutamente toda la información relevante en el folleto. Es decir, mantén en reserva una característica que identifique a tu perro, como una marca en forma de corazón en su pata trasera. De esa manera, podrás pedirles a las personas que te llamen que te proporcionen una descripción y, con suerte, descartarás las llamadas de quienes traten de estafarte. 2 Publica difusiones en Internet. Publícalo en Leales.org como Perros perdidos. Asimismo, puedes usar tu propia red social. Envía avisos a tus amigos y pídeles que los compartan con los suyos. Cuanta más gente se entere, más probabilidades habrá de encontrarlo, igual que compartirlo por WhatsApp con el icono en Leales.org No te olvides de hacer que los avisos sean públicos, de modo que se les pueda compartir con otras personas. Por ejemplo, en Facebook se puede cambiar una publicación, para que no sea privada, antes de publicarla, sin tener que cambiar la configuración global de tu perfil. 3 Anuncia en el periódico. Coloca un anuncio en la sección de clasificados del periódico local. Sé breve y conciso, y trata de poner la misma información que incluiste en el cartel. 4 Ten cuidado con los estafadores. Ve con un acompañante si alguien llama para decir que encontró a tu mascota. Pídele que se reúnan en un lugar público y no le des una recompensa hasta que te la haya devuelto. Cuando una persona llame para decirte que tiene a tu perro, pídele que te lo describa a fondo. Debes estar atento para ver si te da la información clave que no incluiste en el cartel, como una mancha concreta, etc. 5 Revisa los anuncios de perros perdidos. En los mismos sitios en los que publicas puedes revisar los listados de perros encontrados. Además, puedes revisar los clasificados en tu periódico local para buscar mascotas encontradas. Suscríbete al email de Animales perdidos o encontrados de Leales.org para recibir cómodamente en tu correo cuando un animal es encontrado. Parte4Evita que tu perro vuelva a perderse 1 Ponle en una placa de identificación. Las placas de identificación deben tener el nombre de tu perro y tu número actual de teléfono. De esa manera, si alguien encuentra a tu perro, podrá localizarte. Asegúrate de actualizar las placas si cambias tu información de contacto. » Aquí tienes la posibilidad de solicitar una placa de plástico completamente gratuita, que te llegará a casa sin ningún coste: bit.ly/2iNPStE 2 Ponle un microchip a tu perro. Un microchip es un chip inofensivo que se inserta en la parte posterior del cuello. El chip contiene una identificación que cualquier veterinario o refugio puede escanear. Esta identificación se puede utilizar para encontrar tu información de contacto, de modo que los veterinarios o refugios puedan comunicarse contigo si encuentran a tu perro. Asegúrate de actualizar tu información a medida que cambia, ya que la información desactualizada no será útil para tu perro. Una de las razones por las que debes ponerle un microchip y una placa de identificación a tu perro es porque los collares pueden aflojarse cuando los perros están fuera de casa. Si eso ocurre, las placas se perderán, lo cual no ayudará a que te lo devuelvan. 3 Cierra los puntos posibles de fuga. Asegúrate de no tener ningún agujero en tus cercas del patio trasero ni en ningún lugar que le facilite a tu perro escapar. Además, ten cuidado al abrir la puerta y asegúrate de que tu perro no esté esperando para escaparse. 4 Prueba con un microchip GPS o una placa. Puedes comprar una placa con un sistema de localización por GPS y ponerla en el collar de tu perro. Si tu perro se escapa, podrás utilizar un teléfono para seguir su rastro. Para una opción más avanzada, existen microchips con esta misma tecnología, que se incrustan en la piel de tu perro, de modo que no se perderán. Consejos • Siempre debes ponerle una correa a tu perro cuando lo saques al parque o a la playa. • Estudia la posibilidad de educar a tu perro a no huir de los ruidos, pitas, bicicletas, otros perros, etc. • Ten cuidado con los lugares de fiestas donde sepas que tirarán voladores o petardos, ya que los perros suelen huir corriendo. ─ * Acerca de esta publicación: • Esta publicación NO ha sido creada por Leales.org y NO somos responsables de su contenido. • Esta difusión fue publicada por un usuario en Leales.org y autodifundida gratuitamente por los servidores en más de 10 redes, en el buscador de Google, en Google Imágenes y a más de 30 idiomas. • Es el propio usuario el responsable de la creación y actualización oportuna de cada una de sus publicaciones.

1 Penn Plaza was built in International Style II by Kahn & Jacobs in 1972. Built of structural steel and concrete, its facade is a curtain wall of steel and gray solar glass punctuated by columns of anodized aluminum. The 57-storey black glass office tower, owned by Vornado Realty, rises to 750 feet, with three setbacks, next to Madison Square Garden.
There are entry plazas on the 33th and 34th Street sides, as well as one facing Eighth Avenue, complete with trees and planters and flanked by restaurants and cafés. Due to the windiness of an open plaza, a conventional fountain was out of question, so a "fog fountain" was conceived instead: a high dark stone pyramid that emits water spray in summer and steam in winter.
At the top of the building there are four similar red and white neon-light One Penn Plaza logos, each one eight meters high, as immediate identification beacons.
The ground floor is leased to several commercial tenants, including a large K-Mart store, and a restaurant.

I went to visit someone this morning and found this little guy sitting on the door step. It never flinched, although it did open and close it's eyes. I was able to set my phone camera right beside it and take a couple of shots. So does anyone know why little vulnerable birds would do this?

Lucy Stone
Lucy Stone (1818-1893) was born in Massachusetts and began teaching school at the age of 16. She attended Oberlin College and graduated in 1847, the same year she delivered her first lecture on women's rights from the pulpit of her brother's church. The following year she began to work for the Antislavery Society.
In 1855 Stone married abolitionist and feminist Henry B. Blackwell, in a union committed to equality, symbolized by Stone’s decision to keep her last name.
After the Civil War, Stone broke with more radical feminists over the question of prioritizing women’s suffrage and black males’ suffrage. Stone believed that for the time being one must choose between the two, and that African Americans’ needs were greater. In 1869 she helped organize the American Woman Suffrage Association, which was more conservative than the National Woman Suffrage Association.
In 1870 the American Association began publishing the Woman's Journal, edited by Stone, Blackwell, and Mary Livermore. The Woman’s Journal appealed to women who desired greater freedom but were not yet ready to commit themselves to equal suffrage. Stone and Blackwell’s daughter Alice succeeded them as editor, and, after the Nineteenth Amendment was passed, the journal continued as Woman Citizen, the publication of the League of Women Voters.
The two wings of the suffrage movement were reunited in 1890 as the National American Woman Suffrage Association, and Stone became an officer. She passed away three years later in Boston.
