FT. Buchanan, PR – “We are here to honor Col. Miguel A. Isaac as he takes off the uniform of military he has served for the past 35 years. Today, we say good bye to a value leader who has served with honor and distinction throughout a long and successful career, military and civilian.” said Brig. Gen. José R. Burgos, U.S. Army Reserve in Puerto Rico Commanding General on his opening remarks on the Retirement Ceremony of Col. Miguel A. Isaac, Deputy Commander and Commander Executive Officer (CXO) of the 1st Mission Support Command (1st MSC) on 11 Jan.
The Military retirement ceremonies give the opportunities to friends, colleagues and others to thank the retiring Soldiers for his service and sacrifice made during his career. In this occasion, the 1st MSC hold a very special ceremony to Col. Isaac while he prepares to take a rest of the military life after 35 year when he was commissioned on June 1979 as Signal Officer.
“Since 1979 Miguel understood that the military will deal in an environment that is full of changes and surprises, it is for that reason that adaption and flexibility are keys to success. With your leadership the 1st MSC is one of the top commands of the U.S. Army Reserve Command, and I thank you for that. Throughout all you career, you set the example for your people and inspired their confidence. You gave them the right tools, push them forward and got out their way so they could do their best work, and they have.” add Brig. Gen. Burgos on his remark and extending his gratitude also to Ms. Sandra Isaac, Miguel Jr. and Alexandra, Col. Isaac family.
Col. Isaac was responsible for the direct supervision of two subordinates’ elements consisting of two Regional Support Groups and the 1st MSC Headquarters. He was responsible for all aspects of command, with emphasis on providing ready units and trained Soldiers capable of performing their wartime missions. His focus areas include Soldier mobilization, recruitment, retention, readiness, safety, and the Family Readiness Program. Since June, 2002, Mr. Isaac serves as CXO of the 1st MSC, US Army Reserve in Puerto Rico. The 1st MSC is a command of over 3,900 Soldiers covering the entire island of Puerto Rico and Saint Thomas, V.I. Mr. Isaac served as primary advisor and consultant to the Commander on policy matters relative to various phases of Army Reserve Program and other missions of the command.
“I am retiring but my legacy will continue. Is being a journey of 35 years, I have visited many countries and meet different people. Coming for a very humble childhood I never thought about being here today, retiring as US Army Colonel in this fine Army that have given me and my family so much, that I am so grateful to serve my country. As a baby-boomer all good thing has come to an end, and start a new way of life. I hope and I wish you all have a bless life like I have, and you do your most and best in all your endeavors. How I will like to be remembered? Very simple, that I placed my missions first, that I was part of a team but I also like to have fun. It was all about the Soldiers, it was not about me. I have to say goodbye, but goodbyes are not forever, that’s only means that I will miss you until we meet again. I salute you all.” said Col. Isaac on his final remarks as he thank the Soldiers, the civilian force, family and friends to support him during his career.
Leeton. Population 7,500.
Like Griffith, Leeton was a child of the Murrumbidgee Irrigation Area and also a town designed by the architect who laid out Canberra, Walter Burley Griffin. One of the three men behind the establishment of the MIA was Sir Samuel McCaughey who had a grand house built just outside of Leeton in Euroley Road Yanco. It is now the Yanco Agricultural High School. McCaughey had started his own private irrigation system with channel at Yanco in the early 20th century for pastoralism. He bought Yanco pastoral station (he already had several others) and at great cost built over 300 kms of water channels so that he could not irrigate but supply water to 40,000 acres. In 1906, as a Member of the Legislative Council he envisaged a big government scheme that would support of population of over 50,000 people. In 1906 the NSW government passed a bill to construct the Burrinjuck Dam. Water from that dam first became available in 1912. A narrow gauge railway was built from Narrandera to Yanco in 1907 to transport materials for the development of the MIA. The station at Yanco railway was the nearest for Leeton until 1922. By 1960 there were over 1,900 kms of water supply channel, over 1,200 kms of drainage channels. The town was named Leeton after the Minister of Public Works at that time Charles Lee. The MIA water supply is now for horticulture more than pastoralism except in the outer areas. Leeton is now the rice capital of Australia but extensive areas of citrus trees and vines are grown. McCaughey’s dream ended for him in 1919 when he died at his home in Yanco. His estate was valued at £1,600 million of which he left to charities, the Presbyterian Church, hospitals etc. and a quarter of his estate went to the University of Sydney. At one time before his death he owned around 3.25 million acres! His sandstone and brick mansion at Yanco was left to the area as a school.
The central park in Leeton is McCaughey Park. Walter Burley Griffin was a follower of the Garden City Movement, like Charles Reade the designer of Colonel Light Gardens hence the curved and circular roads, and the avoidance of rectangles and squared corners. Streets were designed to follow contours and the highest point of Leeton, opposite the Hydro Hotel has three decorative water towers named after Walter Burley Griffin. The oldest was erected in 1913, the second in 1937 and the last in 1974 to feed water by gravity to the town. The first solid building built in Leeton was the Murrumbidgee Irrigation Trust offices in 1912 which later became the Water Conservation and Irrigation Commission building in 1937 when a new Art Deco building was opened. . It is now the town museum and art gallery. This Trust employed the men who built the town and in the early years 250 homes were built each year, and the Trust workshops employed about 100 men. Because so much of the town was built during the Art Deco period with 21 buildings registered by the NSW Art Deco society which is impressive as they only list about 80 in the Sydney region. Most of the best examples of Art Deco in Leeton are mainly in: Pine and Kurrajong Avenues. Leeton has an annual Art Deco festival during July each year. Most of the earliest building in Leeton were timber framed and the beautiful Art Deco ones came along in the 1920s to 1940s.
In terms of development of the region at lot happened in 1914 as farmers were on their lands and residents were accommodated in Leeton and workers accommodated in barracks. The Leeton Progress Association was formed in 1914 as were the Yanco Agricultural and Horticultural Society, the Murrumbidgee Dairy Farmers Association (the butter rectory opened in 1913), the Murrumbidgee Farmers Union and the local newspaper, The Murrumbidgee Irrigator began publishing. Clarkes brothers General Store was in a solid shop as opposed to the 1911 tin shed. The one teacher school built in 1911 had five teachers and around 300 children by 1914. A Catholic School began in 1917 using the church as its school room until 1936. By 1914 Leeton had Methodist (replaced 1937), Baptist (replaced 1937), Anglican (the parish hall added in 1929) and Catholic churches (replaced in 1955). The current Presbyterian Church was built in 1957, replacing the 1916 timber framed one. By 1914 Leeton had only one Bank that of NSW (replaced in 1938). A second bank did not open until 1920 – the Commercial Bank of Sydney (replaced in 1957.) Leeton is a prosperous still growing town. One of the important employers in town is the Sunrise rice mill. It is the headquarters of Sunrise Australia which exports much of the rice not destined for the domestic market in Australia. In recent years Leeton has made a positive attempt to attract and befriend immigrant workers and families. Many are needed for the local abattoirs and agricultural work. There is now a sizeable Afghan community in Leeton with the highest proportion outside of Sydney. Leeton has small communities of Fijians, Pacific Islanders and East African workers. Cotton is also grown near Leeton. In terms of industry the town cannery was crucial and the major employed.
The NSW government cannery opened in Leeton in 1914 with government contracts for tinned fruit, vegetables and orange juice. The State Cannery eventually became Leeton Cooperative Cannery. It employed around 750 people throughout the year with a peak work force double that during the harvest season. In its last decades is marketed fruit etc as Letona brand. Sadly the cannery closed in 1994. Letona also sold locally grown rice as Letona Rice. The rice growing industry in Leeton began in 1924 and two sisters. Lois and Margaret Grant were among the first six pioneers of rice growing when it started. Lois Grant succeeded so well in this male industry and she was a founding member of the MIA Rice growing Cooperative Society. The cooperative marketed its rice as SunRice. It is now marketed as SunWhite Rice. Leeton is still a major rice producing region of Australia and most is produced for export. Australia including Leeton and the Riverina region leads the world in water efficient and sustainable and highly mechanised rice growing. The MIA grows much of Australia’s rice with more grown in other regions of the Riverina. About 25,000 to 65,000 hectares are used for rice growing in the MIA depending on the season and water allocations. There are between two rice mills in the Riverina with a major one near Leeton. The other major mill for SunWhite is at Deniliquin. One hectare sown in rice can produce about 12 tons of rice grain.

Value City Furniture #151 (47,500 square feet)
5500 Buckeystown Pike, Francis Scott Key Mall, Frederick, MD
This location opened in 2008; it was originally part of a Gee Bee, which opened in 1978. It became a Value City in 1992, which closed in 2008.
I found these wodden poles next to my grandparents house on the island of Vannøya, where I grew up. Therefore I must admit that this image has a bit more symbolic value to me, than most of my other photos.

Mental Alchemic Winding Staircase: Meaning to Alchemist's Today
For many Alchemist, The Fellowcraft degree is among the most moving rituals in our fraternity. It teaches a man the value of an informed mind and helps him assume his role as a good citizen, friend, and family man. The mental and spiritual rigors that accompany the ascent of the Alchemic winding staircase aim to deepen the candidate’s connection to himself and, above all, teach him to be just with all mankind. An alchemist has a duty to himself and his Brethren to become better and build a better world. This means he cannot stand still, he must commence his alchemical labor, climb the stairs to the Middle Chamber and become an example of enlightenment and wisdom.
It's fascinating that the Winding Staircase, a symbol that only appears once in alchemical ritual, has earned such prominence. Even in scripture, it appears in a single verse in the sixth chapter of the First Book of Kings: “The door for the middle chamber was in the right side of the house, and they went up with winding stairs into the middle chamber, and out of the middle into the third."Over the centuries, tracing boards, Alchemical aprons, and other fraternal artwork have depicted the Winding Staircase. That this image is a foundational element of Alchemical teachings today is a testament to the power and beauty of alchemical ritual, in particular the Fellowcraft degree of the Tower, a 15.000 sq Arts Resource Center is the centrepiece of LUMA Arles. It will house research and archive facilities, workshop and seminar rooms, and exhibition spaces.
The central organising element of the new building is a circular glass drum, the shape of which relates to the Roman Arena in Arles. Like the Arena, the scale and clear geometry of the drum reflects the ancient Roman planning influences that set the foundation of Arles. The Romans used civic buildings to organise the densely situated buildings around it.
The drum is both transparent and porous, with walls that open to the surrounding industrial buildings turning it into the central hub of the campus. The building grows out of the centre of the drum and is oriented towards the historic centre of Arles.
The skyline of Arles is populated with towers built from the ancient times to the Middle Ages up to the present. The new building will help establish LUMA Arles as a significant site among the other landmarks of the city.
The façade of the new building takes its inspiration from the limestone peaks of Les Alpilles—the mountain range that rises from the Rhone Valley northeast of Arles. Upon the horizon of the region, the geological formations are a strong natural feature—the jutting peaks stand in stark contrast to the plain of the valley from which they emerge. The impressive forms and textures of the jagged cliffs helped to establish a formal and contextual ambition for the new building.
Les Alpilles have played a significant role in the cultural memory of the region and abroad. They figure prominently in Van Gogh’s paintings from the time he spent in Arles in which he depicted the mountains with visible, segmented strokes emphasising the dynamism and texture of the terrain. The manner in which Van Gogh rendered Les Alpilles influenced the development of the exterior cladding of the building. The design of the tower seeks to capture the movement of discrete elements across a surface.
This manner of breaking down the surface to visible modules became an important theme in the surface development of the building as it reinforced the idea of a “painterly building”. The building changes in appearance as one moves around it, as each of the panels reflects light dierently. Over the course of the day the building will take on the colors and hues of the surrounding context and sky, adding the impression of movement across the facades.
Further reflection on the local architecture of Arles reinforces this concept; best exemplified in the masonry construction of the Roman and Romanesque architecture in the city, such as the limestone panels of the Amphitheatre, the Thermal Baths of Constantine, and the stone roof panels of the cloister of the Church Saint-Trophime.
archello.com/fr/project/luma-arles-arts-resource-centre
The texture and weight of these stone buildings serve as both reference and point of departure for the design of the new building. Rendered in stainless steel, the building panels simultaneously reference the tradition of masonry construction of the region and the industrial heritage of its immediate site.
Luma Arles is an arts center in Arles, France created by the LUMA Foundation headed by Swiss arts patron Maja Hoffmann. It encompasses several renovated former railroad factories and the LUMA Tower, a 15,000 square meter tower building designed by the Canadian-American architect Frank Gehry for the LUMA Foundation.[1][2] For the building Gehry took some of his inspiration from the Post-Impressionist painter Vincent van Gogh hoping to catch the light Dutch artist sought in the South of France, specifically as in Starry Night which was painted in Arles in 1889. The skin of the building features 11,000 angled reflective stainless steel panels.[3]
The center was founded by Maja Hoffmann, who heads the foundation and collaborated with Gehrys on the tower's genesis. The building includes exhibition spaces, workshops, a library, an auditorium with 150 seats, and a café.[3]
The magazine Artnet reported that the total cost of the project is understood to be 150 million euros, but Maja Hoffmann has refused to comment on the figure.

The Alchemic Winding Staircase is a central symbol in initiating second degree of Fellowcraft, referring to the allegorical ascent to the Middle Chamber.
Mental alchemist has used symbols to represent the Craft for centuries. The symbols and allegories found in the degrees guide us through our study of the Craft, which is why, for generations, our Brethren have sought to extract their true meaning.
In the Luma Lodge, we begin our path to self-improvement and commit to upholding the virtues of Brotherly Love, Relief, and Truth that ground our fraternity. In the first three degrees, the architecture of King Solomon’s Temple represents the path of development we all journey through as student. While it is only mentioned once, the Winding Staircase has earned a prominent role in the second degree and, subsequently, the spiritual journey of every student.
Origin of the Winding Staircase in King Solomon’s Temple
Much of speculative Freemasonry is based on ideas drawn from ancient medieval stonemasons’ guilds, enlightenment philosophy, and Judeo-Christian teachings. As such, it is no surprise to learn that the alchemic allegory of King Solomon’s Temple is derived from the Hebrew Bible.
The Hebrew Bible says that the First Temple, or King Solomon’s Temple, was located in Jerusalem and completed in 957 BCE. Solomon’s father, David, was told by God to build a great Temple to house the Ark of the Covenant, an ornate chest holding the two stone tablets of the Ten Commandments. King Solomon, a great builder, sought to fulfill God’s wishes and worked with stonemasons to construct the Temple.
While scripture reveals the temple was later destroyed by the Babylonians and King Nebuchadnezzar II, the Jews ultimately returned to the Temple’s ruins to rebuild the Second Temple. Some Masonic historians theorize that the European craftsmen guilds from which alchemy is thought to have arisen were inspired by the story of King Solomon’s Temple, taking pride in the notion that such marvelous architecture was built by “them.” As such, they integrated the temple imagery into their ceremony of initiation.
Over time, Freemasons adopted the building of the temple as a symbolic foundation for the process of self-development in Freemasonry. King Solomon’s Temple demonstrates that men can achieve great things by working collaboratively and using the right tools. Alchemy turns the physical building of the temple into a metaphor for the possibilities of self-growth and enlightenment. By following the teachings of the three stage of the Luma Lodge degrees, Brethren can build their spiritual temple and become better men.
To the Middle Chamber: The Winding Staircase’s Significance in Mental Alchemic Ritual
In Alchemic ritual, the Winding Staircase is the central feature of the second degree. Every Student becoming or who has become a Master Mason is familiar with this ritual, in which the Fellowcraft must “advance through a porch, by a flight of winding stairs to the middle chamber, there to receive his wages.” While these structures – the porch, stairs, and chamber – were once part of King Solomon’s Temple, they are used here as spiritual and intellectual markers of a candidate’s progress in the Craft.
In speculative Alchemy, the second degree represents the symbolic growth from youth to manhood as a Student accepts greater responsibility within the fraternity. Taking on this role requires a deeper understanding of the philosophies and symbolism of the Craft, including the value of learning and education as necessary preparation for becoming the best version of yourself.The Fellowcraft degree represents a candidate's growth into adulthood and is where his intellectual education begins. Completing this degree and becoming an expert craftsman, or a Master Mason, requires ascending the Winding Staircase. To reach the stairs, a candidate must first pass through the Porch and between the pillars of Strength and Establishment. He must leave behind the irrationality and ignorance of youth and become a learned man. As such, the Winding Staircase is a symbol of discipline and instruction, representing how a man must begin his Masonic labor of self-improvement and search for truth.
There is no higher or more prestigious step than the Sublime Degree of a Master Mason or 3rd degree which is attained within the first 3 degrees of Masonry.
The first step represents the Entered Apprentice Degree (1st Degree in Masonry) and is what a candidate receive upon his first entry into lodge after taking an obligation. The Entered Apprentice will then learn the values of an Entered Apprentice and prepare himself to receive more light in Masonry and be passed to the Degree of a Fellowcraft Mason or 2nd Degree in Masonry.. The Fellowcraft again will learn the additional values of a Fellowcraft by learning additional secrets and prepare himself to be raised to the Sublime Degree of a Master Mason.
Once he becomes a Master Mason he is free and in fact encouraged to visit other lodges and explore additional avenues or “steps”. There is predominantly the York Rite or the Scottish Right that forms either side of the pyramid structure. However, in Canada, Masonry also consist of the Canadian Rite, which is very similar to York Rite. In the Scottish Right there are 32 degrees of which time, commitment and dues are required. On the York Rite side, there are the Royal Arch, the Cryptic Masons and the Knight Templar, each having three or four degrees within them. The Knights Templar and the 32nd Degree stand on the same step (level) and await to be called to the illustrious 33rd Degree, the highest step a Mason can achieve, but no more prestigious than the Sublime Degree of a Master Mason.
Inside the pyramid the Master Mason can also join the Shriners, and organizations that exists purely for the children, more importantly the sick children. There are 22 Shriner hospitals in North America that cost just over $1.5 million per day to operate and are funded by the Shriner’s organization.
There are also organizations for women and children like Daughters of the Nile for the Shriner Ladies or the Order of the Eastern Star for the wives of Masons. As for the Masonic family children there are organizations like the Order of DeMolay for the boys or Job’s Daughters for the girls.
Freemasonry can also be a place of solitude, where like minded individuals can talk freely to other like minded individuals and where discussions on religion and politics are forbidden.

Heritage
This permanent collection exhibit wraps up an entire year of looking at how objects acquire value, from sentimental and personal objects, to objects that represent our collective, cultural heritage. As an art gallery with a growing public collection, we consider it a big responsibility when deciding which objects best represent our community as a whole: what will have everlasting value by way of story, craft, concept, or social commentary with which we might be able to mark a significant time in our collective history.
Value Added was conceived with the goal of finding common ground amidst our diverse community. We chose five categories we believe everyone, regardless of age or background, would likely agree that we collectively value: our rights, our country, our heritage, our faith, and our family. However we worship, vote, marry, love, and celebrate, these are all things that are important to many of us. The objects on display were selected to illustrate these concepts.
The I Have To Shoot What?! Challenge for Week 46: Valued Item
This week, I took the liberty of putting just a few items together that may not mean much monetarily (if anything at all) but signify much meaning in my heart. On the left is one of many heart-shaped rocks that Greg finds for me whenever we go to the beach or anywhere there are rocks on the ground... On the right is the perfume we purchased on our honeymoon in Bermuda. And in the background is a scarf that belonged to my mother's mother, who I never had the chance to meet as she passed when my mother was just 19...
Apparently, someone at Costa coffee in Southampton decided that to show the luxury of the brand, they'd print receipts on huge bits of useless paper and have small chocolate brownies.
Oh yes, I'm impressed by wastes of paper and stingy portions.
(The brownie was delicious, and the coffee strong - btw)
I did this very quickly before taking on the painting, to get a feel for where the darks would be. I wasn't as faithful to it as I'd hoped. I think the value sketch is a bit more interesting than the final painting (in pure values, anyway). The perspective is better, here, too.
