A sentence that would sound completely ridiculous 1 year ago - UP 4014, the last operating “Big Boy” steam locomotive, takes NS 061 east at Conshohocken, PA, on the NS Harrisburg Line. The consist is heading to East Falls, PA to wye the train and shove down the former B&O line to Philadelphia to be put on display for America’s 250th anniversary. UP 4014 is the largest operating steam locomotive in the world, and arguably the most famous train in America, drawing crowds from across the country to see it in operation.
Rochester, IL
The Nov. 26, 1930, robbery of the Rochester State Bank quickly became a Bonnie-and-Clyde-style affair, complete with a car chase in which the robbers’ car was riddled by shots from a police officer’s submachine gun. “Four bandits are nabbed on a girl’s tip,” blared the next day’s banner headline in the Illinois State Journal.
The sensational events actually began in Kincaid, where four “business-like” robbers — one carrying what the newspaper described as a light machine gun — held up the Kincaid Trust & Savings Bank about 10:30 a.m. The four, along with a fifth man who stayed outside with the group’s cars — a green Hudson (said later to be bullet-proof) and a rumble-seat Ford — escaped with $3,000 in cash and $2,000 in travelers checks.
The gang apparently drove west to Rochester, where three men carrying pistols entered the State Bank of Rochester about 11 a.m. They drove off with another $3,000 in cash and the bank’s cashier, J. Earl Bell, whom they released a few blocks away.
The Kincaid robbers had disconnected that bank’s telephone, but word of the crime had been sent to Springfield by telegraph, and Springfield telegraph operator Sophie Tuczkus alertly notified city police that the robbers might be heading toward Springfield.
Springfield Chief of Detectives C.W. Jesberg and Patrolmen Louis Redpath and Primm Estill drove east of town on the South Grand Avenue Road, where they came upon a Chrysler sedan whose driver — a known police character named Frank Martini — claimed he was having engine trouble. Primm took Martini to the police station for questioning. The Journal described what happened next.
About five minutes later a Ford sedan traveling at a rapid rate of speed enroute to Springfield passed Jesberg and Redpath. The two officers took after the machine, in which three of the bandits were riding.
As the bandits’ machine neared Fifteenth street on South Grand avenue, they almost struck an Illinois Power bus and were forced to turn out of the way, running up over a curb.
The bandits, realising that the officers were following them only a short distance behind, turned north on Fourteenth street.
Jesberg sitting in the rear seat of the machine told Redpath to drive to the opposite side of the street, while he leveled a sub machine gun on the bandit’s car. After firing several shots through the machine and wounding two of the men, the driver … pulled his automobile over to the curb near the Cook Street intersection.
Police later claimed Martini had been waiting with the Chrysler so the robbers could switch cars. The Ford had been reported stolen in Chicago the day before. The loot taken in Rochester was found in the car, police said, along with three .45-caliber revolvers.
The three men arrested in the Ford — Jack McCoy, Arthur “Archie” Brown, and Ted Patterson — were eventually sentenced to between one year and life in the state penitentiary for the Rochester stickup. A Sangamon County grand jury refused to charge Martini with being part of the holdup gang, and he was released from jail — but police immediately ordered him to leave town.
the sun was high, its light falling in hard, diagonal stripes across the ancient sandstone wall. the stone was the color of ochre, warm and porous. she walked along it, a figure in cream and bone, her heels clicking on the pavement. in her hand, she carried a bag, a perfect, brilliant rectangle of red. it was a single, defiant accent of color in the sun-bleached world. a punctuation mark at the end of an unspoken sentence. a fleeting signal, moving through the afternoon heat.

To understand oneself requires patience, tolerant awareness; the self is a book of many volumes which you cannot read in a day, but when once you begin to read, you must read every word, every sentence, every paragraph for in them are the intimations of the whole. The beginning of it is the ending of it. If you know how to read, supreme wisdom is to be found.

Every morning, I cross the threshold of my home and step into a society I no longer recognize. A world numb to real suffering, blind to genuine problems, yet hypersensitive and reactive to meaningless trivialities. Each time, it feels like descending into a hell of indifference and distortion — worse than any prison. In that moment, my body bends under the weight of a sentence that renews itself, day after day.

On this day in 1839, around 10,000 Chartists, led by John Frost, marched on the town of Newport, Monmouthshire, in what would become known as the Newport Rising. It was the last large-scale rebellion to take place in Britain and would result in the deaths of 22 demonstrators, who were shot by troops guarding the Westgate Hotel. The leaders of the rising were convicted of treason and sentenced to be hanged, drawn and quartered, though their sentence was later commuted to transportation.

An old chinese sentence states: "Every blade of grass deserves its own drop of morning dew." But what happens when the winter temperature and humidity cover every thing with a thin layer of rime, lit by the morning sun like a smarm of tiny crystal needles? The morning dew becomes ice and ice becomes expression of the art of Nature. A magic atmosphere, full of awe.
This phenomenon is quite unusual and difficult to spot. So... this picture is dedicated to those who never walk the same road with the very same eyes. Whoever loves photography knows what I am talking about.
Un antico proverbio cinese dice: "Ogni stelo d'erba merita la sua goccia di rugiada del mattino". Ma cosa succede quando la temperatura rigida e l'umidità coprono ogni cosa di un sottile strato di ghiaccio, acceso dal sole del mattino come uno sciame di sottili aghi di cristallo? La rugiada del mattina diventa brina e la brina diventa espressione dell'arte della Natura. Una magica atmosfera, piena di meraviglia.
Il fenomeno è abbastanza raro e difficile da notare.
Perciò dedico questa immagine a chi non passa mai due volte per la stessa strada con gli stessi occhi. Chi ama la fotografia, sa di cosa parlo.

John Dudley, 1st Duke of Northumberland (1502? – 22 August 1553) was a Tudor general, admiral and politician, who de facto ruled England in the latter half of King Edward VI's reign. At Edward's death, his attempt to displace Edward's sister and heir Mary with his own daughter-in-law, Lady Jane Grey, failed, resulting in his being sentenced and put to death for high treason.
John Dudley was born as the first son of Edmund Dudley and Elizabeth Grey, Baroness Lisle, a descendant of Richard de Beauchamp, 13th Earl of Warwick. His grandfather was a Knight of the Garter and Steward to King Henry V. His younger brothers were called Jerome, Oliver, William and Andrew.
When his father was attainted and executed in 1510, Edward Guilford — a partner in many of Edmund's "profitable outrages" — became guardian of the nine-year old John and one of his younger brothers (possibly Andrew, who was later made Admiral of the North Sea). The boys were then taken into the home of Richard Guilford. Within two years, in 1512, Guilford was able to persuade King Henry VIII to repeal Edmund's attainder.
In order to prosper under his new-found liberty, Dudley married Edward's daughter Jane in 1520. He took part as Guilford's lieutenant in the campaign of 1523 in France under the king's brother-in-law, Charles Brandon, Duke of Suffolk and won a knighthood on the field for gallantry after his valour at the crossing of the Somme. He was soon to gain prominence in the tournaments of the royal court and as a protégé of Thomas Cardinal Wolsey, and so joined the group whose task it was to amuse the king. In 1527, and again in 1532, he accompanied Wolsey to France.
About the time of the birth of his fifth son Robert in 1532/1533, Dudley was appointed Master of the Armoury in the Tower of London. To it he brought the reputation of being the ablest commander both by land and sea that had then been of service to the Tudors. This helped rehabilitate the name of Dudley. At the coronation of Anne Boleyn in 1533 he was invited to be a cup-bearer, and he would lead the procession at the christening of the Princess Elizabeth.
When Edward Guilford died in 1534 without male issue or a written will, the Guilford estate was disputed between Dudley (on behalf of his wife) and Guilford's nephew John. Dudley claimed the manor of Halden, and other lands in Kent and Sussex, despite John Guilford's assertion that his uncle had intended him to inherit. Five years later Dudley sold the manor with others to Thomas Cromwell, whose protégé he became after Cardinal Wolsey's fall.
From 1536 he appears to have encountered some difficulties that led him to part with much of his inheritance in favour of the Midlands estate of his cousin, John Sutton, 3rd Lord Dudley; he exchanged his reversionary interest in the lands left to him by his mother to Sir Richard for life. He then made extensive purchases, especially in Staffordshire and the Welsh marches. In addition, he was given several manors by the King, including the extensive estates of Halesowen Abbey on the Dissolution of the Monasteries, so that his land base shifted to the central and west Midlands. He was elected sheriff of Staffordshire in 1536 after helping to put down the Pilgrimage of Grace.
In 1537 Dudley was sent on a mission to Spain and also began the connection with the Admiralty which, with his military commands from 1542, was to bring him to the fore during the closing years of Henry's reign. In January 1542 he resumed his seat in the Commons as one of the knights for Staffordshire, and upon his stepfather's death was created Viscount Lisle (derived from his mother) and made Lord Admiral for life, entering the Lords the following day to sit in regular attendance for the rest of the session.
Exercising his new prerogative, Dudley dispatched the French from the English Channel and stormed Boulogne-sur-Mer, for which he was to become a Knight of the Garter and was on the 23 April 1543, admitted as a member of the Privy Council. As Lord Admiral he directed the naval operations of the next two years and his presence at the third session of that Parliament was respectively shortened. To his other duties there was added in late 1544 the governorship of Boulogne. Also in 1544 he accompanied his future rival, Edward Seymour, Earl of Hertford to the capture and burning of Edinburgh. A large English force, supported by a naval fleet, under Hertford's command, invaded the east coast of Scotland, sacking Leith and Dunbar and capturing Edinburgh.
After attending the first session of the Parliament of 1545 Dudley was to direct the operations of the fleet in the Battle of the Solent which frustrated the French attack on Portsmouth and the Isle of Wight. He went with the embassy to Paris to ratify and conclude the peace in 1546. On his return Dudley was absent from Council meetings on the grounds of ill-health, although the imperial ambassador ascribed his retirement to a difference of opinion with Bishop Stephen Gardiner, whom he had assaulted in the Council. He returned before the King died, and was in attendance at the final session of Parliament. By 1547, the year of the King’s death, he was Lieutenant General of all His Majesty's armed forces.
Dudley was among the sixteen members of the Regency Council, Henry had appointed to govern the kingdom during Edward's minority. The new King's uncle, Edward Seymour, Duke of Somerset, was elected Lord Protector just before the coronation. That year Dudley sought and was duly granted the right to bear the arms of the Earls of Warwick, with the distinctive badge of the Bear and the Ragged Staff.
By the end of 1549 most councillors, including Thomas Cranmer, the Earl of Arundel, William Paulet, and William Cecil, were turned against Somerset and united behind Dudley, the man with the ambition, will and determination to oust the Protector. Dudley lead the palace rebellion against Somerset in 1549, leading to Somerset's imprisonment and eventual execution in 1552.
Unlike Somerset, whom he had outmanoeuvered, Dudley did not take the title of Lord Protector, and encouraged Edward VI to proclaim his majority. Nonetheless, Dudley effectively ruled the country by holding the two offices of Lord President of the Council and of Great Steward of the King's Household. Dudley was given the title of Duke of Northumberland in 1551.
Dudley obtained such an influence over Edward that the King was ready to make it appear that Dudley's ideas were actually his own. Whether or not it was justified, Dudley acquired a bad reputation, becoming known as a "tyrant", sometimes referred to as the merciless "bear of Warwick". Despite the differing opinion of his character, some[who?] argue in Dudley's favour that he consulted the Privy Council regularly, did not make any executive decisions, and did not use the title 'Lord Protector' that Somerset had done. Dudley also began the political education of the young Edward VI.
Already in 1549, Dudley achieved his great political victory over the Norfolk rebels in their efforts to remove the enclosure system. He was popularised, not only for his skill and courage, but for his mercy towards the prisoners. When his small troop was faced with destruction and outnumbered, he drew his sword, kissed the blade and spoke of death before dishonour. When the conflict was over, he responded to his officers' protests for revenge with: "Is there no place for pardon?" He asked "What shall we then do? Shall we hold the plough ourselves, play the carters and labour the ground with our own hands?"
In order to compensate for the economic legacy of the Duke of Somerset, Dudley ceased debasement of the coinage, although, poorly advised by economists, he did take that action one last time. Using melted church plate, the coins were revalued in 1551 and began to slow down the rapid inflation that had been ravaging the country. However, Dudley's tendency towards profiteering - allowing himself and other Privy Councillors to enrich themselves at the expense of the state when it was nearing bankruptcy - has been criticised, although there are few that believe such profiteering was required in order to ensure Councillors' support.
Vagrancy, enclosure, evictions, poverty and rising crime were all very immediate problems facing Dudley's regency. This was exacerbated by poor harvest and subsequent lack of food.
One of Dudley's first actions after Somerset's fall was to end the wars with France and Scotland that Somerset had initiated . He surrendered the besieged town of Boulogne which, whilst weakening the English position in France, gained £200,000 for the struggling economy, liberated England from a financially burdensome territory and resulted in a defensive alliance between France and England with the Treaty of Boulogne. He also withdrew the English garrisons from Scotland.
When King Edward was dying, he signed a document which barred both his sisters, Mary I and Elizabeth, the remaining children of King Henry VIII, from the throne in favour of Lady Jane Grey (who had married Dudley's youngest son Guilford only six weeks previously). The extent to which Dudley influenced the document is uncertain,[1] but he countersigned the King's decree.
The decision to name Lady Jane Grey as an heir was based on the lack of 'heirs male' from other royals and noble families with royal connections. The motivation to exclude the previous heir-presumptive, Mary, stemmed from a desire to prevent a Catholic succession.
Before Edward's death had been made public, the Council summoned Mary back to London, but she (informed and warned by the Earl of Arundel) refused and instead demanded to be recognised as Queen. Dudley was at his country residence having complained of illness and in his absence the council wavered. Mary, having gathered much support from the nobles and gentry of East Anglia, which soon spread into other counties, marched into London with no opposition at the head of an immense throng. This outpouring of support for Mary was due to a general dislike of Dudley, popular anger over the previous Protestant regime and over its mistreatment of Mary and genuine respect for Mary's legitimacy. The people - even many Protestants - preferred a legitimate heir over a Protestant usurper.
Dudley was forced to surrender to Mary and was arrested. He was put on trial in 1553 and was sentenced to death for high treason. In his parting words he announced to the stunned observers his repentance and return to Catholicism - and encouraged them all to do likewise. Though five of his sons were imprisoned along with him, they were freed after eighteen months, except for the youngest, Guilford, who was executed.

In April 1822, the Nürnberger Friedens- und Kriegs-Kurier printed a dispatch they'd received from Sicily, Italy. It told of the trial of one Michel Angels Alessi, a guide to foreigners on that island. About a year earlier, he'd been employed by the German botanist August Friedrich Schweigger (1783-1821), professor of botany at the university of Königsberg. Schweigger had just been rector of his university and was unwinding from that administration by undertaking some botanical collection in Italy. Fascinated by the variety of the natural kingdom there he'd exclaimed that the locals had no idea of the treasures right under their noses. Presumably they didn't get his metaphors, and thought he was talking of actual riches. He was regarded a magician, an adventurer, and as moneyed. Poor Alessi decided to murder him. On June 28, 1821, as Schweigger was bending down over a spring in the mountains to slake his thirst, Alessi hit him in the back of his head, killed him, and made off with his possessions. Apprehended five days later he was remanded to justice and in April of 1822 was sentenced to death. Aesculapius, the Greek God of medicine, was of no use to either men...
The Mexican Milkweed of this photo is labeled in the Hortus as Asclepias linifolia Lag. ex Spreng. (1824/5) but it's a synonym for Asceplias angustifolia Schweigg., Arizona Milkweed or Mexican Milkweed, described by Schweigger in 1812. Arizona was then still part of Mexico. I rather prefer the specific name 'angustifolia' - narrow-leaved - because it is so straightforward; 'linifolia' - flax-leaved - asks for the knowledge of what flax-leaves look like; yes, they're narrow, but why not say so in the first place...?
