Quinton has grown considerably in recent years, but Lower Quinton still retains a palpable atmosphere of the past. Friday Street is lined with lined with half-timbered and Georgian houses and the church of St Swithin is one of the most interesting in the area, with the brooding mass of Meon hill beyond, infamous for the unsolved murder of Charles Walton in 1945 with its rumours of witchcraft. An elegant church with north and south aisles and west tower with a tall C15 spire visible for miles around. The south aisle is c 1100 and is thought to have been cut through the Saxon wall of an earlier church, while the north aisle shows the transition from round to pointed arches and is c 1170. The chancel is Early English and above the chancel arch the arms of Elizabeth I are still visible. A clerestory was added in the C15 and the nave has a late C16 oak roof. The aisles end in chapels to Our Lady and St Anne built in the C13 and C14. A Norman font stands by the north door. There are five Armorial windows designed by Geoffrey Webb between 1929-32. Webb asked local school children to suggest subjects to decorate the blank panes. At the end of the Transitional north aisle the Lady Chapel has an east window which incorporates a C14 niche which houses a modern Virgin and Child. Fragments of the original glass fill the tracery and Webb has designed panels depicting the Virgin's Life. The Chancel c 1255, was restored in 1862, when a large window by F. Preedy was inserted in the blank east wall. The south aisle has a chapel dedicated to St Anne which has a double piscina and a triple sedilla, 1340. The jewel of this chapel is an Altar tomb to Joanna, Lady Clopton c 1430 who entered a religious order after the death of her husband. The brass shows her wearing a wimple and a widows barbe. She originally lay next to her husband Sir William, but they were separated in 1749 and his effigy is now lies between the south aisle and the nave. Sir William is depicted in full armour, though he is thought to have been the victim of Parliamentary troops, who damaged the sculpture.

Graffiti on a subway sign next to the WTC site

The scouts entering the camp knew that they were about to start their summer adventure when they saw this sign.

 

The sign is no longer there. Its whereabouts are unknown. It may have been taken down by the Magic Empire Scouts when they sold the property to a local family who already owned the land adjoined the camp.

 

The local family bought the property from the Girl Scouts and they still own the property today.

 

The new owners tried to reopen the campgrounds as a public camp and recreation area several years after the murders but the venture only lasted a couple of years. The memories of the murders kept guests away.

What is this? Things that makes you go hmmm....

"Amature" indeed!

See the blury blob in near the gutter running down the corner of the house, the zoomed in image is "driveway_face".

Kenny was killed in the parking lot at East Penn Manufacturing 4/24/07. As of now the murder is unsolved.

Lebart Galloway, places a candle at the home Mack Bookal, during a candlelight vigil.

Marc Bookal was four when he went missing one year ago. The body was discovered on March 24, 2010.

The homicide is still unsolved.

What's with the weird paint colors? Another unsolved mystery. If memory serves me correctly, potatoes and carrots were stored on the upper level to the left while huge canned goods were on the shelf. The other oddity is that the switch to light this room was controlled by another switch in the room on the left. Very odd.

Perhaps not so hard to guess what it is, just a bit strange, is all.

Nothing sadder than an abandoned bike drowned in a canal. Poor think looks like it died just as it attempted to crawl onto some of the rocks by the bank.

INTRIGUING AND MYSTERIOUS IS THE VILLAGE OF San Lorenzo de El Escorial,

45 KILOMETRES FROM MADRID I HAD A BEAUTIFUL DAY HERE

 

JANUARY 2012

La Habra Detective Dean Capelleti talks about a 2006 unsolved murder during an interview at La Habra Police Department in La Habra, Calif. Wednesday afternoon Dec. 16, 2009. Leland Wasington, 26, of Westminster was killed by several gunshots while picking up his friends at a Halloween party on Oct. 29, 2006. "He was definitely in the wrong place at the wrong time," Capelleti says.

I wasn't planning on taking a picture but when I took my grandma to St. Mary's for an appointment I got out of the car and noticed this view of the skyline. Not the best view but a new one for me.

For a collection of photos about the Huron River Spill, look here: www.flickr.com/photos/ahknaten/collections/72157626327597...

 

On July 19, 2010, the Huron River in Ann Arbor, Michigan had a pollution spill. The case is unsolved but closed. Booms were setup, the pollution flowed for hours and I witnessed it. Yet no one was ever charged. Someone was able to spill something and get away with it.

 

20 Days after the spill, I went for a walk around Gallup Park. Here are the photos that I took that day.

 

After the booms failed the pollutants presumably went downstream and dispersed. The boom failure was due to a rain event, but the initial spill was not. There is a considerable amount of press related to phosphors from fertilizers that focuses on the average citizen, and Gallup Park had an algae bloom that can be caused by pollution from phosphors. Remember, the AAFD report stated an 88% confidence of phosphoric acid in the spill (a DPS report states that the AAFD report with the acid reference may be inaccurate). Also, some reports stated that petroleum was mixed in as well. I know that I could smell something, so the reports that state that it was 'non-odorous' are not complete. I'm not saying that this spill caused all of the algae in Gallup, but unless Ann Arbor tells me that petroleum and acid is allowed to be dumped legally, then this spill could not have helped the environment, and as there were no accident or permit reports, I presume it must have been illegal?

 

According to the City of Ann Arbor, "A Resident's Guide to Clean Water", Spring 2010 edition:

www.a2gov.org/government/publicservices/systems_planning/...

 

"Dumping waste into storm drains, ditches, or waterways contaminates drinking water supplies, recreational areas, and wildlife habitat. Plus, it is illegal"

 

"In Ann Arbor, an ordinance prohibits the use of fertilizers containing phosphorus unless a need is demonstrated through a soil test"

  

According to the HRWC

"nuisance algae blooms that can result from excess phosphorus entering our freshwaters"

Once owned by powerful Frankopan family it looks like a castle from some fairy tale.

Unsolved propriarty problems, and continuous devastating left terrible marks on this magnificant castle.

Now it is returned to propriarty of district Bosiljevo, and they are seeking for serious investor to restore castle to previous state. Though this is tough task, since all valuables from the caslte, furniture, art, books from library etc were stolen. Even rocks and stone balustrade were taken away and used for decorations of gardens.

An unsolved murder. A missing child. A lifetime of deception. In 1977, pregnant Genevieve Russell disappeared. Twenty years later, her remains are discovered and Timothy Gleason is charged with murder. But there is no sign of the unborn child. CeeCee Wilkes knows how Genevieve Russell died, because she was there. And she also knows what happened to the missing infant, because two decades ago she made the devastating choice to raise the baby as her own. Now Timothy Gleason is facing the death penalty, and she has another choice to make. Tell the truth and destroy her family. Or let an innocent man die to protect a lifetime of lies...

 

Quinton has grown considerably in recent years, but Lower Quinton still retains a palpable atmosphere of the past. Friday Street is lined with lined with half-timbered and Georgian houses and the church of St Swithin is one of the most interesting in the area, with the brooding mass of Meon hill beyond, infamous for the unsolved murder of Charles Walton in 1945 with its rumours of witchcraft. An elegant church with north and south aisles and west tower with a tall C15 spire visible for miles around. The south aisle is c 1100 and is thought to have been cut through the Saxon wall of an earlier church, while the north aisle shows the transition from round to pointed arches and is c 1170. The chancel is Early English and above the chancel arch the arms of Elizabeth I are still visible. A clerestory was added in the C15 and the nave has a late C16 oak roof. The aisles end in chapels to Our Lady and St Anne built in the C13 and C14. A Norman font stands by the north door. There are five Armorial windows designed by Geoffrey Webb between 1929-32. Webb asked local school children to suggest subjects to decorate the blank panes. At the end of the Transitional north aisle the Lady Chapel has an east window which incorporates a C14 niche which houses a modern Virgin and Child. Fragments of the original glass fill the tracery and Webb has designed panels depicting the Virgin's Life. The Chancel c 1255, was restored in 1862, when a large window by F. Preedy was inserted in the blank east wall. The south aisle has a chapel dedicated to St Anne which has a double piscina and a triple sedilla, 1340. The jewel of this chapel is an Altar tomb to Joanna, Lady Clopton c 1430 who entered a religious order after the death of her husband. The brass shows her wearing a wimple and a widows barbe. She originally lay next to her husband Sir William, but they were separated in 1749 and his effigy is now lies between the south aisle and the nave. Sir William is depicted in full armour, though he is thought to have been the victim of Parliamentary troops, who damaged the sculpture.

Scene of the infamous and unsolved Charles Bravo murder (or was it suicide?) mystery of 1876, this dramatic looking building has unsurprisingly attracted a number of ghostly tales.
