I don't know if these two couples even belonged together. But when I looked at the finished picture, I noticed this seemingly traditional division of roles and had to smile a little.

Yeah, I know there is glare, the sun was right on us... but I love this. It looks like a wall mural to me. My little sweet had just fallen down & jumped back up. Yep, got a pic of her down too ! hahahaha

I was shooting slime mold fruiting bodies and he wandered by. It was interesting to see this critter run daintily among the little spore laden stalks. I noticed that the bug was careful with them, not stepping on the fruit, but weaving among them. I wonder if there is some unknown ecological relationship between them. Or maybe the simple life understands something about the environment.

 

Overview of Codex Alimentarius

by Rima Laibow, M.D.

At the request of the United Nations (UN) in 1962, the World Health Organization (WHO) and Food and

Agriculture Organization (FAO) took on the joint role of running and administering the Codex

Alimentarius Commission (CAC) to establish standards and remove barriers to trade for all food and

food products. Having declared that nutrients are toxins from which we must be protected, the CAC

has been busy establishing enforceable international guidelines for upper limits of nutritional

supplement dosing. Codex has goals that affect every person in the UN’s 170+ member nations,

including the United States. As a tool for furthering these goals, member nations are urged to adopt

Codex standards and guidelines as domestic policy. The United States has already committed itself to

doing so despite U. S. law which prohibits this compliance.

The World Trade Organization (WTO) has adopted Codex as a standard for the adjudication of foodrelated

international trade disputes and has the authority to enforce Codex standards through

implementation of harsh economic sanctions on non-Codexcompliant member nations. Pre-existing

international treaty laws dictate that WTO rulings will override the domestic laws already in place in

its member nations and, in fact, the WHO has successfully taken both states and the U. S. government

to court in the U. S. to force changes in our domestic laws eleven times. This means our nation’s hard

won laws that give you access to over-the-counter, natural health supplements will become

meaningless. Codex’s original mandate to remove barriers to trade and assure a clean food supply has,

under the influence of private, economically-driven multinational pharmaceutical, agricultural and

chemical corporations, self-expanded far beyond its original mandate. The result is a body of highly

dangerous and restrictive policies that threaten to become domestic law in the U. S. and, as such, are

a threat to your health and freedom.

The FDA has stated explicitly that its goal is complete "harmonization" with Codex and, in order to

bring that about, international regulations i.e., Codex will be given preference over domestic ones!

(Federal Register, 10/ 11 /95)

If Codex gets its way, as it already has in the EU, we can expect that, ultimately, only 18 or so dietary

supplements will be available over-the-counter in doses which are, by design, far too small to have any

discernible impact on any human being since codex classifies nutrients as toxins. High potency

nutrients will not be available either with or without physician’s prescription since these molecules

and compounds will be forbidden under any circumstances. The big surprise? Once in the hands of

pharmaceutical companies, consumer supplement costs are expected to more than quadruple. This

has, in fact, been the experience in Europe where this process is already underway and micro-dose

nutrient prices have increased 10 to 100 fold or more (e.g., in Norway a bottle of zinc lozenges which

previously cost $2 now costs $54; in France 12 Vitamin C tabs of just10 mg cost $117; while 10 Vitamin

E caps of only 10 IU each cost $110).

Australia and the European Union (EU) are in the process of enacting harmonized Codex policies that

restrict consumer access to nutritional supplements. America is next. Though Americans value

personal freedom, the fact Codex meets infrequently (and almost always offshore) and is bogged

down in highly technical language that is difficult to understand has resulted in many Americans

being unaware of this threat. The nearly total media blackout on Codex and its activities helps to

keep the U. S. uninformed and therefore, pliant.

While there have been rare serious adverse reactions to nutritional supplements during the past

decades, (usually when taken far in excess of the recommended dosing), numerous severe and even

fatal reactions to drugs (usually when taken at the recommended dosing) occur every day and are the

fourth leading cause of death in hospitalized clients in the United States when properly

used. When improperly used, they are, in fact, far and away the leading cause of death in

the United States. Even so, drug deaths are very likely underreported. Drugs are

inherently dangerous; nutrients are not. This fact makes it clear why the drug culture

2

needs to eliminate all access to natural health options, including nutritional supplements,

in order to expand and intensify its influence and thus its profitability. Healthy people

take fewer drugs and thus are poor customers.

The global pharmaceutical powers -that-be have already purchased a large piece of the

lucrative global nutritional supplement pie but the considerable size of this pie keeps the

hugely profitable pharmaceutical profit -share-pie from reaching its maximum size so the

competing nutrient pie must be destroyed. Though unable to patent a natural substance,

pharmaceutical corporations can hold patents on synthetic versions of vitamins and

minerals that, unfortunately for the consumer, often do not act like their natural vitamin

counterparts in the body and often act in unpredic table and harmful ways. If Codexcompliant

Europe is any guide, the permitted micro-doses of permitted nutrients will be

only synthetic ones.

In addition to regulatory and/or administrative takeover and destruction of the dietary

supplement market and consumer access, Codex also mandates irradiation of food;

mandatory use of antibiotics, hormones and growth stimulants in all animals raised for

food, is expected to legalize the unlabeled inclusion of Genetically Modified Organisms (GMOs) (whose

safety has never been established while their serious dangers have) into our seed and food supplies and

will increase the allowable maximum tolerated levels of pesticides, herbicides, veterinary drugs and

other dangerous industrial toxins in food, likely driving up degenerative illnesses, including cancer,

diabetes, cardiovascular disease, macular degeneration, MS, etc. All of these policies are made under

the guise of free and equal access to trade for all nations and protection of the public.

Some people have “Codex Anesthesia,” a state of overwhelming, numb confusion that occurs just

before people lose their health freedom. Many otherwise well-informed people from the manufacturing

and retailing sectors of natural healthcare believe that the Dietary Supplement Health and Education

Act (DSHEA), passed in 1994 to protect Americans’ access to natural healthcare substances, will still be

in place to protect them. This is not the case: Fundamental health freedoms afforded the American

public by DSHEA, which classifies supplements as food which, as such, can have no upper limit set on

their use, are now under well orchestrated legislative and/or administrative attack. Health nuts and

junk food devotees alike are not immune from this legislative attack on health freedom.

The C-130 was originally designed as an assault transport capable of operating from unpaved, hastily prepared airstrips. The C-130 served in many roles depending upon its configuration.

 

Twenty-eight C-130's were converted to side-firing gunships, primarily for night attacks against ground targets.

The Dodson House, built in 1894, is significant for its association with persons who played important roles in both the social & economic development of the small West Tennessee town of Humboldt. The house is an excellent example of Queen Anne architecture and is located in the older residential neighborhood of the town.

 

W.H. Dodson, a Humboldt banker, organized and established the Haywood County Bank in Brownsville, Tennessee in 1889. His son, William, was duly elected assistant cashier of the financial institution. William remained with the bank until the fall of 1892 when he moved to Humboldt and established a real estate company. In February 1893, William Dodson purchased a town lot from W.N. Bennett for the amount of eight hundred dollars. Early in 1894, he began to oversee the construction of this Queen Anne style residence which was completed by that fall.

 

After William Dodson's death in 1904, his son George moved from Knoxville to Humboldt and practiced law in Humboldt for four years before purchasing the Ford automobile dealership. In 1931 William Hooper, grandson of William Dodson, moved into the family home after graduation from Vanderbilt University. He soon became associated with Dodson Ford dealership and in 1950 he purchased all rights to the dealership. Mr. Hooper was active in community affairs and served on the Humboldt Chamber of Commerce Board of Directors, the West Tennessee Strawberry Festival Board, and the Ford Dealer Council Board (Memphis District).

 

Architecturally, the Dodson House is a good example of the Queen Anne style residence. Although the interior of the house was altered by the Hooper family, much of the original fabric was retained. The present owners, who purchased the house in 1980, are restoring the interior and plans have been developed for the restoration of the exterior. For these reasons, this house was added to the National Register of Historic Places on March 25, 1982. All of the information above was found on the original documents submitted for listing consideration and can be viewed here:

Der 102,5 ha große Neue Garten liegt im Norden Potsdams am Jungfernsee. Über das Wasser hinweg bestehen gestalterische Verbindungen zu den Gärten von Sacrow, Pfaueninsel, Glienicke und Babelsberg, wodurch er eine zentrale Rolle in der Gartenlandschaft erhält. Trotz Überformung durch Lenné hat er noch sentimentale Einzelpartien aus der Entstehungsphase vor 1800 bewahrt. Seine Geschichte fängt mit dem Ankauf eines zentralen Grundstückes durch den Kronprinzen Friedrich Wilhelm (II.) an. Im Jahre 1787, ein Jahr nach dem Regierungsantritt, begann die Anlage des Neuen Gartens, der seinen Namen programmatisch in der Abkehr vom alten Barockpark Sanssouci erhielt. Als Gestalter wurde der Wörlitzer Gärtner Johann August Eyserbeck verpflichtet, was die Umsetzung der an englischen Gärten orientierten Idealvorstellung Friedrich Wilhelms garantierte. Ungünstig für den einheitlichen Charakter des Gartens war der sich über mehrere Jahre hinziehende Grundstücksankauf. Neben einbezogenen ehemaligen Wohnhäusern entstanden zwischen 1787 und 1792 wichtige neue Bauten im Garten, von denen heute noch viele bestehen: Marmorpalais, Küche in Form einer römischen Tempelruine, Gotische Bibliothek, Schindelhaus, Orangerie, Grotte, Meierei, Pyramide (Eiskeller) und das holländische Etablissement. Vor letzterem verläuft, begleitet von Pyramidenpappeln (seit 1864 Pyramideneichen), ein Musterstück für den preußischen Chausseebau. In der Gartenanlage entstand eine Fülle von Partien unterschiedlicher sentimentaler Prägung, die von den jeweiligen Bauten oder Pflanzungen in ihrem Charakter bestimmt werden. 1816 überarbeitete Peter Joseph Lenné im Auftrag des Thronfolgers den zugewachsenen und unmodern gewordenen Garten. Unter Erhalt vieler Bereiche und Entfernung zu dichter Gehölze bekam der Neue Garten große Sichten und Wiesenräume, gefälligere Wegeführung und vor allem die Blickverbindungen zu den Nachbargärten (Sacrow, Pfaueninsel, Glienicke, Babelsberg, Potsdam, Pfingstberg). Trotz kleinerer Veränderungen zur Kaiserzeit und durch Rücknahme von Einbauten aus der Zeit der russischen Nutzung (1945–1954) hat sich noch immer die von Lenné geplante Grundstruktur bewahrt. Das Schloss Cecilienhof, 1913–1917 für den Kronprinzen erbaut, fügt sich sehr harmonisch ein. Eine 13 ha große Fläche, die 1960-1990 als Grenzgebiet zerstört war, ist inzwischen wieder hergestellt worden.

The New Garden, which covers 102.5 hectares, lies at Jungfernsee Lake in the northern part of Potsdam. Creative viewing connections extend across the water to the gardens of Sacrow, Peacock Island, Glienicke and Babelsberg, evidencing the park’s central role in this overall garden landscape. Despite its having been reshaped by Lenné, the garden has nevertheless preserved individual, emotive areas that date from the phase of its creation before 1800. The garden’s history begins with the purchase of a central piece of land by Crown Prince Frederick William (II). In 1787, a year after his ascension to the throne, the laying out of the grounds commenced at the New Garden, the name being programmatic for the abandonment of the old baroque park at Sanssouci. Wörlitz gardener Johann August Eyserbeck was charged with its creation, a decision that ensured a transformation in alignment with Frederick William’s ideals oriented towards English gardens.

What undermined the uniform character of the garden was the fact that it had taken several years to purchase the land. In addition to the former private houses that were included, important new buildings were constructed in the garden between 1787 and 1792, many of which still exist today: the Marble House, the kitchen in the shape of a Roman temple ruins, the Gothic Library, Shingle House, orangery, grotto, dairy, pyramid (ice house) and the Dutch houses. In front of the latter, we find a prime example of Prussian country road construction lined with pyramid-shaped cottonwood poplars (now, since 1864, pyramid-shaped oaks). On the garden grounds, a number of areas were created, whose characters were emotively shaped by the respective buildings or plantings to varying degrees.

In 1816, Peter Joseph Lenné was commissioned by the successor to the throne to rework the overgrown garden, which no longer conformed with the contemporary taste. By preserving many areas while removing copses that had become too dense, the New Garden was provided with new perspectives and meadow spaces, more pleasing pathways and above all, with viewing connections to the neighboring gardens (Sacrow, Peacock Island, Glienicke, Babelsberg, Potsdam, Pfingstberg Hill). Despite the smaller changes made during Imperial times and owing to the removal of installations dating from the time the garden was used by the Russians (1945 –1954), Lenné’s basic structural design has been retained up to this day. Cecilienhof Country House, built for the Crown Prince from 1913 to 1917, harmonizes in this setting. In the meantime, an area of 13 hectares has been restored, which had been destroyed during its use as part of the border zone from 1960 to 1990.

Two sides to every story

One part that you left out

You gave me all your burdens

And all of your love to someone else

 

'Cause I found you low with your face in the dirt

And, darling, I swore I'd be there at your worst

Now you're moving on and the tables have turned

And I'm just as broken as you were at first

So when was the moment that the roles reversed?

"We are refugees from Hizrabel," he began. "We are all Ethereans or sympathizers. When the new regime took over they quickly made it clear that we were no longer welcome. We don't know what to do and are on our way to Revanna. Do you have room for us tonight?"

"My master welcomes all travelers," responded Ruppert. "We have food for you and plenty of accommodations. I know my master, Duncan, will want to hear more of your trials."

Paddy's Hole Boat Storage Facility is an important maritime location situated on the River Tees in Redcar, North Yorkshire, England. With a rich history dating back several centuries, this facility has played a significant role in the region's maritime activities. In this historical account, we will explore the origins, development, and importance of Paddy's Hole Boat Storage Facility, providing a comprehensive overview of its evolution over time.

 

Origins and Early History:

The story of Paddy's Hole Boat Storage Facility begins in the late 18th century when the River Tees emerged as a vital industrial waterway. The river provided an essential transport link for industries such as coal mining, iron and steel production, and shipbuilding. The natural sheltered area known as Paddy's Hole, located on the southern side of the river's entrance, became a favored spot for local fishermen and boat owners due to its calm waters and proximity to fishing grounds.

 

During the 19th century, Redcar witnessed significant growth as an important coastal town. The expansion of the local fishing industry prompted the need for a dedicated facility to store and maintain fishing boats. Paddy's Hole Boat Storage Facility was established in response to this demand. The exact date of its establishment is uncertain, but records suggest it was in operation by the mid-19th century.

 

Development and Growth:

In its early years, Paddy's Hole Boat Storage Facility consisted of basic storage facilities and moorings for local fishing vessels. As the fishing industry flourished, the facility underwent several improvements and expansions. By the late 19th century, it had evolved into a well-equipped storage and maintenance facility, accommodating an increasing number of fishing boats.

 

During this period, the construction of the South Gare breakwater in the late 1860s provided further protection to Paddy's Hole from the turbulent North Sea. This development enhanced the facility's suitability for storing and maintaining boats, attracting more fishermen to utilize its services. The South Gare breakwater also facilitated the growth of other maritime activities, such as pleasure boating and recreational fishing, contributing to the facility's increasing importance.

 

World Wars and Post-War Era:

The two World Wars had a profound impact on Paddy's Hole Boat Storage Facility. During World War I, the facility played a crucial role in supporting the war effort. It served as a base for several naval activities, including patrol vessels, mine clearance operations, and the training of naval personnel. Additionally, Paddy's Hole became a temporary home for fishing vessels requisitioned by the government for wartime purposes.

 

Similarly, during World War II, Paddy's Hole Boat Storage Facility played a strategic role. The facility served as a base for coastal defense and anti-submarine operations. Its proximity to the North Sea made it an ideal location for monitoring and protecting the coast against potential threats. After the war, the facility reverted to its primary function of serving the local fishing community, contributing to the post-war economic recovery.

 

Modern Era and Recreational Use:

In the latter half of the 20th century, changes in the fishing industry and the decline of traditional fishing practices led to a shift in the role of Paddy's Hole Boat Storage Facility. With fewer fishing vessels requiring its services, the facility began to adapt to new market demands. It gradually transformed into a multipurpose facility catering to recreational boating, yachting, and watersports.

 

To meet the needs of the changing demographic, various amenities were added to the facility. These included boat ramps, mooring pontoons, storage sheds, and maintenance workshops. The facility became a hub for boating enthusiasts, attracting visitors from across the region and beyond.

 

In recent years, efforts have been made to preserve and enhance the historical significance of Paddy's Hole Boat Storage Facility. Conservation projects have been undertaken to maintain the original structures, while new developments have focused on creating a more inclusive and accessible space for the community. The facility continues to provide storage, maintenance, and launch services for a diverse range of watercraft, catering to both commercial and recreational users.

 

Conclusion:

The history of Paddy's Hole Boat Storage Facility reflects the ever-changing dynamics of maritime activities along the River Tees in Redcar, North Yorkshire, England. From its humble beginnings as a local fishing boat storage facility to its modern-day role as a versatile boating hub, Paddy's Hole has witnessed and adapted to the shifting needs of the community.

 

Throughout its existence, the facility has played a pivotal role in supporting local industries, providing essential services during times of war, and fostering recreational boating and watersports. Today, Paddy's Hole Boat Storage Facility stands as a testament to the region's maritime heritage, serving as a vibrant center for boating enthusiasts and a reminder of the area's enduring connection to the sea.

Arrogance is good only for erecting a fortress wall behind which doubts and fear are hidden. Freedom and nature reign here. Under the morning sun, wheat sparkles with gold in the fields, visiting merchants noisily lay out goods in the market, fishermen near the island catch fish, Goreans hunt and just enjoy.

The settlement of Hysvik is located on the island of Farnatium, near Port Kar, always lit by the warm sun, washed by the waters of the restless Thassa.

Glory to Old Ubar, who ruled for eighty years and everyone knows that Goreans can live for centuries, death creeps up suddenly. By chance or someone else's doing, Ubar dies right on the main square. Under him, trade, agriculture and handicraft industries flourish.

The wealthy and powerful families of Hysvik gather council and decide how to live on. Citizens organize a government of all the indigenous inhabitants of the island, who have taken the oath to the Home Stone. But few people know which of the stones is Home, this is a mystery. The stone lies in full view, but also hidden right on the stone pavement among other stones. Maybe you will reveal not only this secret, but many others?

Welcome dear travelers, whoever you are, perhaps among you is the one who will become our new Ubar and lead Hysvik to prosperity.

The African sacred ibis (Threskiornis aethiopicus) is a species of ibis, a wading bird of the family Threskiornithidae. It is native to Africa and the Middle East. It is especially known for its role in the religion of the Ancient Egyptians, where it was linked to the god Thoth.

An adult individual is 68 cm (27 in) long with all-white body plumage apart from dark plumes on the rump. Wingspan is 112 to 124 cm (44 to 49 in) and body weight 1.35 to 1.5 kg (3.0 to 3.3 lb). Males are generally slightly larger than females.

The bald head and neck, thick curved bill and legs are black. The white wings show a black rear border in flight. The eyes are brown with a dark red orbital ring. Sexes are similar, but juveniles have dirty white plumage, a smaller bill and some feathering on the neck, greenish-brown scapulars and more black on the primary coverts.

This bird is usually silent, but occasionally makes some croaking noises, unlike its vocal relative, the hadada ibis.

The population in Italy may have been introduced from the zoo Le Cornelle which has kept a free-flying group since the early 1980s, or possibly from Brittany, but this is unclear. The first pair was seen breeding in the nearby heronry at Oldenico, in Lame del Sesia Regional Park in Novara, NW Italy, in 1989. By 1998 there was a colony of 9 pairs and 48 birds there; by 2000 there were 24–26 pairs, and by 2003 there were 25–30 breeding pairs. A second colony appeared in 2004 at another nearby heronry at Casalbeltrame. These birds would mostly feed in the rice fields in the area, but would also migrate elsewhere during the summer, with the population at the roosts increasing in the winter. In 2008, the number of breeding ibis was estimated at 80–100 pairs, and at least 300 birds. That same year, six individuals, consisting of three pairs, were observed roosting at a heronry in Casaleggio. By 2009 they were said to be one of the most characteristic animals of the rice-growing area of Novara and Vercellese. In 2010 the species was reported attempting to breed in the Po Delta, northeast Italy. By 2014 reports of individuals and small flocks were recorded in various areas from the Po Valley down to Tuscany. Outside the Piedmont Region, cases of possible nesting are reported in Emilia-Romagna, Veneto and Lombardy. As of 2017 there do not seem to be coordinated control efforts in Italy.
