St Giles Cripplegate, Barbican, London
St Giles has the most startling setting of perhaps any English medieval church. A foundation of the 11th Century, the church was rebuilt after a fire in 1545, that is to say right at the very end of the Medieval period, and looks what it is, a big late Perpendicular East Anglian church, the tower rebuilt in the 17th Century but otherwise looking as if it might be beside the market place in a small Norfolk or Suffolk town. This is disingenuous of course, because the reason for it is the same in both cases, fabulous wealth on the eve of the Reformation.
This parish was particularly badly affected by the Great Plague of 1665, and Elizabeth and Wayland Young suggest this was because of the open drains running through the churchyard. St Giles was too far north to be burned in the Great Fire, but reaped a benefit from it because of the large number of people relocating to the parish from nearer the river. The drains were culverted, and there was plenty of money for repairs and refurbishments. In the 19th Century the church was made more Gothic than it was already with the addition of battlements along the aisles and clerestories.
Along with most of the area to the north of Cannon Street and the south of Old Street, St Giles was completely destroyed on the evening of 29th December 1940, when high winds and the lack of firewatchers due to the Christmas holidays conspired to fan the flames created by wave upon wave of German bombers. For more than ten years St Giles stood a ruin, as the City Corporation pondered what to do with the area. That St Giles would be rebuilt was not in question, but it would need to be as part of the unified whole envisaged for the area north of London Wall, the largest single bomb site in the whole of the British Isles. The usage of the area would need to be largely residential, as the Corporation was concerned about the depopulation of the City, but should also include spaces for arts, recreation and education. Cost was not a factor, there was plenty of money available.
The result was the largest single building project in England during those post-war years. The Corporation accepted the plans submitted in 1956 by its favourite architectural practice Chamberlin, Powell & Bon. The new area would be home to high-rise and low-rise residential buildings all linked together through gardens, with an arts centre at the core. Significantly, it wasn't intended that retail spaces would form a significant part of the scheme. In a brave and revolutionary gesture, the new scheme would be entirely traffic free, the road carried under the site through a tunnel. A revised plan of 1959 allowed for the walkways of the new scheme to be linked into the raised walkways planned to spread like a web throughout the City - although fortunately, apart from London Wall and Upper and Lower Thames Street, this web was never built. The new scheme took its name from the main street which had run through the site, which in turn was named for a medieval fortification to the north of the Wall. And so the Barbican began to rise from the ashes.
With the scheme underway St Giles could be restored, and it reopened in 1960 to the design of Godfrey Allen. Bearing in mind that the interior had been entirely destroyed, and considering the modernist city which was arising around it, the restoration was very conservative, the new interior replicating as far as possible what was there before, some of the furnishings coming from the demolished church of St Luke, Old Street, which had been put in storage. The east end of the chancel was new, but based on architectural details which had survived the 19th Century restoration. There is some decent post-war glass, and memorials to some of the church's worthies including John Milton.
And so it is only outside that St Giles is extraordinary. After twenty years of work the Barbican was opened in 1981, the last great post-war repair project to be completed. The church floats a great ship in a sea of concrete, an illusion furthered by its position beside one of the Barbican waterways. Some memorials have been reset in the brick and concrete. Beyond is the Barbican Centre, and above rise the great shafts of the towers. When they were built they were the tallest residential buildings in Europe, unashamedly modernist in their concrete jaggedness. And yet there is a pleasing harmony to the whole, the contrasting tower of St Giles sticking up perpendicularly to join them. Of course, you wouldn't want every church in this kind of setting, but I think it works here.
There was, of course, an emotional reasoning behind rescuing the City churches after the Blitz, because they had become emblematic of the 'London can take it' attitude. Wandering around the City I am struck that with the possible exception of 30 St Mary Axe, the Barbican towers are still the most refreshingly Modern buildings in the Square Mile, and they are now almost forty years old. Much of the corporate architecture along Bishopsgate is simply dire, especially the awful Heron Tower, and it is hard to remember that the NatWest Tower or whatever it is called now ever looked Modern.

They really are a gorgeous crew of lovelies, and seeing them together like this makes me wonder about my decision, but there is no reasoning with kenner fever. C U at Bee Kay or email me silviap2020@hotmail.com
Yes, this fig is the main reasoning behind the silly titles. :P
So, in all of my creative genius (or sometimes, lack thereof), I forgot to create enemies for figures that I have created. So, I am calling on the comic book nerds here to see if there are any relatively simple looking, purist Question enemies. From what I know about the Question, he mostly fought the operations of foreign spies and corporate espionage and that kind of stuff, so if someone gives me a mob boss design or whatever, I will not use it, because I am looking for a costumed villain. I will push the boundaries here, and will take any legitimate submission, no matter how obscure, so obscure supervillain fans, eat your hearts out! Thanks for the help!
A note on the purist part: I am not an absolute purist, I remove prints, I use third party accessories, (excluding clone brands), I have created homemade fabrics and other things that most purists would cringe at. However, the decal/painting line is one I have, but will not as readily cross as the others listed, so, in other words, pretty much anything short of decals is OK in my book.
They say that animals are incapable of feeling and reasoning. This is false. No living thing on earth is void of either. They also say that man is the most intelligent - and the most superior - species on earth. This is also false. It is arrogant to assume we are the most intelligent species when we repeatedly make the same mistakes.
I'm coming to the most important point of my UA175 research and regrettably then it gets quite complicated and confusing for some, seeing as my gift for explanation matters does not always translate well, as 'Amazed' has so kindly pointed out. So if you have any questions by all means ask me, but not like he's done because the answer you'll get back from me is none at all...I don't reward bad behaviour here and certainly not with my time!
I've posted this image so people following along with my line of reasoning have something to refer to. Hopefully you're able to see in the image the features I'll be pointing out along the way as I'm trying to explain what the substructure of the Boeing 767 passenger cabin looks like and why...particularly the area around the last window on the right hand side of the fuselage.
Remember to refer back to the smaller piece of wreckage seen therein the image (Copyofplanepartrf20-full) and the NIST video HQ_WTC5_GARY image anytime you deem it necessary to do so but for now please consider here the upper and lower horizontal stringers that run along the entire length of the passenger cabin - above and below the cabin window frames including the last one on either side of the airframe. As you can see those window frames sandwich those horizontal stringers between themselves and the outer skin by way of a single row of Hi-Lok fasteners while the rest of the horizontal stringer sandwiches everything else (as well the outer skin of the aircraft) and in this instance by the use of noticeably large solid rivet fasteners. However, notice in the image DSC00478 (Hi-Lok) I've highlighted (in red) on the right a row of Hi-Lok fasteners there on the lower horizontal stringer.
Hi-Lok fasteners are always used to attach the window frames to the outer skin of the aircraft while they are sometimes used to attach the outer skin to the horizontal stringers, again depending on the circumstance. Clearly the bulk of the sheet metal here is sandwiched to the horizontal stringers by way of solid rivets then and there's no production breaks in that horizontal stringer in this area. Likewise then there's no production break in the layer(s) of sheet metal that are sandwiched together by it and solid rivets forming what's referred to as the "window belt"...commonly understood as the fuselage. As you can see the bulk of the area painted green here makes up the outer skin of the aircraft and very little else makes up the skeleton. So in other words then each of the multiple layers of sheet metal that make up the fuselage are sandwiched together between the horizontal stringers by using solid rivets primarily (and in this instance) but that is not always the case, as quite often other types of fasteners are used in their place, depending on many circumstances.
Having said that notice on the flange of the frame support bracket shown in the lower red box there are eight solid rivets in a single row while there are six Hi-Lok's attaching the flange shown in the red box above it and lastly there are six solid rivets on the flange in the upper red box. What this image doesn't show you the image IMG_3235 does...that being the middle support bracket actually has two flanges, one facing forward and the other aft or backwards and each flange has a single row of six Hi-Lok fasteners apiece going through the outer skin of the fuselage, while the lower frame support bracket has a single flange facing AFT with eight solid rivets going through the outer skin of the fuselage. Each of the six Hi-Lok's on both flanges of the middle support bracket flanges are evenly spaced from the others in each row and are directly opposite their partner on the adjacent flange. In other words they are not staggered and most importantly then clearly the lowest Hi-Lok in each row is at least two inches above the row of solid rivets in the horizontal stringer.
I've mentioned those features here because they differ greatly from what I've explained of the wreckage throughout my research and what is shown in the image Copyofplanepartrf20-full! For instance there most certainly shouldn’t be a double row of fastener holes that encroach into that area from above or below but that appears to be the case when looking at the image. It's hard to tell really because it's not the best resolution.
Most assuredly then and under no circumstance should there be more than one layer of sheet attached to that lower support bracket flange but that's exactly what the image DSC00478 and the video footage HQ_WTC5_GARY shows - at least two layers of sheet metal have been torn away torn away! To prove that point take a look at the lower support bracket flange highlighted (in red) therein the image IMG_3227 and notice how far the multi-layered area of sheet metal is from encroaching on the lowest of the eight solid rivets in that flange. Now compare that with the number of fasteners remaining in the same flange that's been torn away in the video footage HQ_WTC5_GARY - there are six. Meaning that tear runs straight thru the sixth rivet and the single layer of sheet metal underneath it!!!
How can that discrepancy exist I ask if the wreckage shown in the other images and video here is that of United Airlines flight 175...a Boeing 767 airframe?
Bloodhounds were once used to track down criminals. Plus the Iowa State Penitentiary is located in Fort Madison. Supposedly, this is the reasoning behind the super sniffing Bloodhound being the mascot for the Fort Madison High School.
I'm always interested in the reasoning behind changes in packaging design. The theme is still yellow and blue with a red "Lipton" logo and a mouthwatering glass of iced tea, but...different. Is it really an improvement, or just change for the sake of change? You decide.
Old on the left, new on the right.
Cycles
Is your reasoning for leaving haunting you every night?
since you can't do what you want
and what you can't have
is being waved in front of your nose
everyday.
Every night,
you dream of what you could have done;
because your reasoning for leaving must have been flawed;
because how your living, is not how you envisioned
every day to be.
Every day,
you think of ways to get around the reasoning of leaving,
because you didn't want to leave in the first place.
You wanted to stay
everyday.
But you can only stay
every night,
only when you sleep.
and when you wake,
you question your reasoning for leaving.

Although I have no scientific reasoning, by common sense I'm tempted to believe the higher humidity reading. It was pouring rain for this outdoor test. Two DHT22 sensors with the same arduino code were acceptable for temperature values, but humidity readings were pretty far apart.

If a fence post falls and there's no one around to witness does that still mean kids are to blame? That seems to be the preferred reasoning behind such events but I would much rather think further out the box. So far out the box that you'd needs to have a great but huge Russian Doll of boxes to contain my thinking.
I fear I may have been a bit over confident in my belief that my thinking would be more outlandish than that of the average thinker. I was thinking that when it came to the thinking that I would think of something fantastical and whimsical in an attempt to answer the question of what happens to the fence post. The question that no one asked and that I'm just using to kill time.
Dragons....no they'd have burned it. Fairies? No no they're far too small. Oooh a herd of Wild Haggis out on the prowl for a meaty morsels for munching. Mistaking the post for prey, due to their hairiness leading to restricted visibility. They leap at it, toppling the mighty erection....hee hee mighty....leaving nothing but a fallen down stump and a hold in the fence.
Or kids did it.

St Andrew, Framingham Pigot, Norfolk
In 2006 I wrote: 'I know I go on about this, but it never ceases to impress me that you can be barely half a dozen miles from Norwich and still feel as if you are in the middle of nowhere. Take St Andrew, for instance; its minaret-like tower, peeping above distant trees as you negotiate the narrow lanes to the north and east of the town of Poringland, eventually resolves into this grand 19th century confection in the fields. There are a couple of cottages in view, but that's all.
Until the 19th century there was a ramshackle round-towered church here, but what you see today is all of a piece, the 1859 work of Robert Kerr. George Christie, who lived at the hall, paid for it. Christie is a good example of the kind of energetic, beneficent squire you occasionally got in East Anglia. He was the principal land owner and employer, and there was no doubt who was in charge in the parish. Paternalistic and earnest, he rebuilt all the cottages on his estates, as well as providing a lecture room and a schoolroom. Reasoning that a rundown church was not giving the right impression of the Kingdom of God to his workers, he had it demolished. In its place he commissioned one of the grandest and most ornate rural 19th century churches in East Anglia.
The nave and chancel are tall, with great ridge-backed roofs. The tower is offset on the north side, rather unusually, as if this was a church designed for some shoe-horned plot in Kentish Town, but came to earth in deepest rural Norfolk instead. Pleasingly, the main material is flint, with freestone details. The only exception is the tower, which is built of stone. It's the only thing about it that doesn't really work.
As I say, Framingham Pigot is on the outskirts of Poringland; but it has fortunately managed to escape being part of that most cold and unwelcoming of all Norfolk benefices, and you'll find it open or accessible. Because of this, you can step inside to an interior that is fully High Church, Tractarian in design, a relatively early example for East Anglia. This is enhanced by an excellent collection of windows, most of which appear to be by Hardman & Co.
Directly opposite the south doorway is what seems to be a split-level transept, but is actually the base of the tower. I assume that originally it was intended that the lower storey be a baptistery, and the upper storey an organ loft. However, neither are now in use for that purpose. On the ground floor is a delicious little Lady altar, and the organ now sits at the west end, blocking the main west doors. On either side of it there are college seats, as if Christie originally had even grander plans. Today they are inaccessible, and used for storage. High above the chancel arch is a stylised doom, with Christ seated in judgement, St Michael and two flanking angels. They won't be to everyone's taste, and you wouldn't want to see them everywhere, but I am glad that they exist here at least. Beyond, the chancel is similarly ornate, with a gorgeous painted roof and impressive heads in the corbels. In the sanctuary itself is a pillar piscina which appears to be old. Could it be the last remaining survival from the old church? I suppose that it is as likely that Kerr got it from elsewhere. But there is also a medieval brass inscription, another touchstone to the past.
In this part of Norfolk there are several grand Victorian rebuildings, but this one is the best. The grandness of the features is to scale, and you have to remind yourself that this is not huge. It is a smashing church, at once magnificent and intimate. You know that a wholly 19th century building that continues to feel alive, and which still offers something to modern worship, is a rare beast; this is one of them.'

The intention of this course series seeks to provide an insight into classical Aristotelian logic in order to strengthen critical reasoning/rhetoric skills amongst the activist community. This course allowed for individuals to better represent themselves and the struggles they support in interviews, and will better allow for participants to hold-their-own in media interviews and in conversation amongst detractors from causes actively supported by Peace House/Affiliates.
Each course will be structured into a two-hour block containing two parts: theory and application. The first hour will contain teachings from varying works of antiquity, from Aristotle's Logic to the Socratic dialogues and orations from Cicero & other distinguished rhetoricians. From here, theoretical knowledge will be applied in addressing/critiquing potent arguments through the history of philosophy, from Descartes Cogito Ergo Sum to Immanuel Kant's metaphysical theory. The second one-hour block will deal with the application of technique acquired in the aforementioned block. Through consensus, we will decide which topic those in attendance would like to address, and will allow for a demonstration of informal logic and constructive criticism relative to the presentation of said argument (Note: if it is felt that there should be scheduled topics by course attendees, methodology for topic selection is subject to change).
-Presentation One: Introduction to Logic/Rhetoric: Presentation One will address one-third of Aristotle's triangle-of-rhetoric: Logos
1) Layman's Logic vs. Logic as a Math/theoretical science (If everyone has opinions and they're all equally valid, why does debate exist?) -This section will cover the distinction between logic and Logic, as well as an introduction to the syllogistic form/ overview of the structure of argument. The distinction between Formal and Informal Logic will be made.
2) Logic in Practice; a reading of Plato's Euthyphro.
-A group reading of Euthyphro will demonstrate how to address an opponent's argument on an opponent's terms. This will further explain the structure of argument and how many disputes remain unresolved due to axiomatic non-concessions.
-Follow-Up to Presentation One; Debate using per-determined axioms
It's nighttime, therefore my sickness seems to peak. Does that happen to anyone other than me? Is there a reasoning behind that?
I got sent home early from work because I could hardly function. Work meeting in the early AM, and possibly work until the late PM. :/ Oh dear Lord, please give me a break.
I hate to sound negative, but trust me, I have a good reason to feel down, but why is life so full of disappointments?
Wow, I hope this Christmas break gets better. No QOTD.
I was obviously experimenting hardcore here. haha.

Extract from the diary of Wolf (ex Camel Spotter) 1976
The two spotters left Broome and the camel spotting behind them, funny how one can leave perfectly incredible jobs (and Girls), any how the reasoning was that one should spend a bit of time in the desert to purify ones self (like doooo they were doin that already, doooo). Away from the wild women, the booze, the drugs, the fights, late nights and all the shenanigans of misspent youth. The idea was to go lay some railway tracks in the middle of noplace, build up the inner strength and the outer strength and look for that state of ZEN (that the camel spotters already had but were not able to spot it just then) How wrong could the two camel spotters be, like they moved into total madness; the only thing that saved their arses was the fact that they were already seasoned in the art of war.
Port headland to Newman; Google it and just how far it is there and back. So they got hired in Port Headland and were thrown half way up the line same day. Next day on the line Leo fainted in his first five minutes on the track, he got fired for fainting, then rehired for being a newbie.
The wolf had a hat and lasted the day out but only just!
On reflection at the bar that night (every three hundred miles was a camp for the workers so you worked up and down the track staying at different camps) they the camel spotters after a few tinnies had a divine revelation or a bit of enlightenment one might say and realized that they were surrounded by 300 sun baked half wits, sun baked full wits and every other type of sun fried wit, with all the sun stewed nut cases and lunatics in the land, and if one wasn't a lunatic he was a pervert, but not just a pervert! a sun baked pervert! the lunatic's were also cooked or fried, it looked like it was after all a wonderful place to be for a short time.
"Jeeze" drawled Leo to the Wolf we gunna have some fun here..
