To help restore bay scallop populations to areas where they have become depleted, researchers and FWC volunteers raise scallops. At the lab, researchers grow young scallops in mesh bags held in wire cages hung off a dock. When the scallops reach the appropriate size, researchers and volunteers release them in locations targeted for restoration.
This gentleman - along with two others - is painstakingly, and lovingly restoring an almost unknown monument to America's Greatest Heroes.
In the history of the American military, the men of the 100/442D Regimental Combat Team and that unit were singularly and collectively, the most highly decorated unit in the history of the American military. The sad irony of it all, is that the unit was comprised entirely of American citizens of Japanese descent, who, along with their families, after Imperial Japan's attack upon Pearl Harbor, were relocated to various internment camps throughout the United States, two of which were in Arkansas.
Located in a remote area of the Mississippi Delta region, Rohwer (pronounced "roar"), and Jerome are now only painful memories to a few. Our nation has done the right thing, and made reparations to the survivors, and did so under Presidents Reagan & Clinton. Now, the work of dignifying their lives and suffering has begun.
This monument, crudely made of cement in the WWII era, over time, has suffered the ravages of weather, and abusive defacement from ignorant youth who have destroyed portions of it.
The 100/442D Regimental Combat Team distinguished themselves like no other unit has.
"Fifty years later, the "Remember Pearl Harbor" 100th Infantry Battalion, and the "Go For Broke" 442d Regimental Combat Team is still the most decorated unit in U.S. military history.
"Members of this unit earned over 18,000 individual decorations including 9,486 Purple Hearts, and 5,200 Bronze Stars. The Combat Team earned five Presidential Citations in 20 days of Rhineland fighting, the only military unit ever to claim that achievement.
"General of the Army George C. Marshall praised the team saying, "there were superb: the men of the 100/442d... showed rare courage and tremendous fighting spirit... everybody wanted them." General Mark W. Clark (Fifth Army) said, "these are some the best... fighters in the U.S. Army. If you have more, send them over."
"This World War II unit was composed of up to 4,500 nisei, which means second generation Americans of Japanese ancestry.
"President Franklin D. Roosevelt wrote, "a combat team... of loyal American citizens of Japanese descent has my full approval, [and] will add to the... 5,000... already serving in the... [100th Infantry Battalion, and Military Intelligence Service]... Americanism is no... a matter of race or ancestry. A good American is one who is loyal to this country and to our creed of liberty and democracy."
"The 100th Infantry Battalion came from Hawaii's National Guard, and distinguished itself in Italy before it joined the 442d R.C.T. on June 10, 1944. The unit was identified as 100/442d R.C.T. in tribute to its previous war record. The team also included the 442d Infantry Regiment, the 522d Field Artillery Battalion, the 232d Combat Engineer Company, and the 206th Army Ground Forces Band.
"The 442d may be best known for its rescue of the Lost Texas Battalion of the 36th Infantry Division, in the forests of the Vosges Mountains in northeastern France, near Biffontaine and Bruyeres on October 30, 1944."

A view where once there was none. One of the benefits of the recent clearance work has been the restoration of the views across the lawns to Kings Weston House. Hours before this photo was taken nothing could be seen.
The distance prospects of the house are important to express Vanbrugh's intentions with the tall arcaded chimneys. This is now the furthest point where this feature can be seen within the park.
If you were wondering where I had been for the last few weeks it has been here, and in setting up the Kings Weston Action Group to champion the restoration cause here.
Quite a tricky one to balance with the brilliant bright stone of the house contrasting heavily with the dark shadows of the trees. Hope this works :-/

A record of the busy scene (minus the manpower!) during the restoration of the cab of my Leyland Cruiser 16.21 tow truck. The cab whilst being quite good for a 1981 model did have some rust in it in the usual T45 places. Inevitably the job "grew" as work progressed. The windscreen was broken after the cab was tilted and a hidden screwdriver dropped onto the screen! A blessing in disguise, as the hidden rust at the botton of the windscreen panel was revealed and was able to be repaired.
The job was completed in time (just) for the lorry to attend this year's Leyland Society event at the British Commercial Vehicle Museum in Leyland.

A great restoration firm can do an inspection and come up with the most effective cleanup plan for your house As a result of cleansing and restoration rely upon what sort of water damages your house and for how long the water have been there. If your water supply just isn't correctly covered and there are leaks in the pipes essentially the most attainable well being drawback that you're going to get is diarrhea because it should open your pipes to other sources of bacteria and it will likely be directly transferred to you when you by chance drink it. It could even weaken your well being such that it will make you vulnerable to other types of illness.

We restored this vintage folding model, and added a dropbars. The Sturmey Archer 3 speed internal rear hub was also reconditioned. Note 2nd interrupter brake levers,
A niece sent to me a not so good photo of an old family photo, it required a hard PP work for recovering and bringing it back to better times; anyway, I'm asking her to get a better shot (not from a cheap cellular phone) for being able of doing a better work.
My homonymous ancestor was the founder of Venezuelan Odontological Association there by 1920s. I think that grandpa would be proud of it. Nice job, isn't it?.
If needing this kind of job for bringing your old shots back, just tell me: For very few coins you may get all your memories refreshed.

This is how they are re-erecting the Parthenon: one piece of stone at a time. (This piece could also be from some other temple; I couldn't say.) The stone on the bottom is a column drum; a bit of the original fluting remains at right, and the new portion will be fluted once the block is fitted into place. The stonecutters carve a new piece to replace the missing bits and attach it to the original stone. Mortar is visible here (they are using a soluble cement that can be reversed in the future if needed), and they are also using titanium rods. Traditional pins would have been of iron encased in lead. The lead keeps them from corroding, expanding, and splitting the stone (as they found after some unfortunate 19th century restoration efforts that used iron alone).
Not sure what the round pieces on top with the tabs are -- if anyone knows, please comment.
