The Earle Family: Ralph Earle and His Descendants Compiled By Pliny Earle of Northampton, Massachusetts. Printed For The Family. Worcester, Mass.: Press Of Charles Hamilton, 1888.
Pliny Earle Chase [1902-1], after studying in the public schools of Worcester and the Friends' school at Providence, R. I., entered Harvard College without a condition in 1835, graduated with high rank in 1839, and soon afterward engaged in the occupation of a teacher. He had charge of public schools in Leicester and Worcester, Mass., successively, was an assistant in the Friends' school at Providence, R. I., and subsequently taught in Philadelphia, Pa., with the exception of two years, until 1848, when he relinquished the occupation on account of severe hemorrhages from the lungs.
He entered a partnership for carrying on the stove and foundry business in Philadelphia, Pa., and in Wilmington, Del., and remained in it many years, not retiring from it until some time after he resumed the occupation of teaching, in 1861. He succeeded Prof. Cleveland [218] as the principal of a school for young ladies, in Clinton street. In 1870 he visited Europe, and in 1871 was appointed Professor of Natural Science in Haverford College, Pa. He also served several months as acting-professor in the University of Pennsylvania, in the place of Professor Frazer, who had died in office. In 1875, a new chair, that of Philosophy and Logic, was established in Haverford, and he was transferred to it. The subjects now coming under his charge were particularly congenial and agreeable to a man of his mental constitution. On the organization of Bryn Mawr College, Pa., he was appointed Lecturer on Psychologv and Logic in that institution. In 1886 he presided at the commencement exercises of Haverford College, as Acting-President. This was essentially the closing act of the labor of his life. In the foregoing year he had a severe attack of pneumonia, from which he never fully recovered. This was followed by a complication of diseases, in which the action of the heart was seriously affected. He now failed rapidly until his decease, which took place at his residence on the College grounds.
He was the embodiment of the student and the teacher. His leisure time throughout his mercantile life was religiously devoted to the laborious investigation of subjects, both physical and mental, main of which are among the most abstract, occult and profound. The great scope and thoroughness of this research are attested by the one hundred and thirty-five papers by him which, through a series of years, were published by the American Philosophical Society, of which he was a member, for several years one of the secretaries, and latterly one of the vice-presidents. Their titles, with those of his other writings, indicate a wide range in philology, meteorology, physics and mental philosophy. For the last twenty years or more, his investigations were chiefly directed "to the confirmation of the general postulate that 'all physical phenomena are due to an Omnipresent Power, acting in ways which may be represented by harmonic or cyclical undulations in an elastic medium.'" He was a contributor to Silliman's American Journal of Arts and Sciences, the Journal of the Franklin Institute, The London, Dublin and Edinburgh Philosophical Magazine, and the Comptes Rendus, of Paris. He published, in 1844. The Elements of Arithmetic. Part First, which was followed by Part Second; in 1848, the Common School Arithmetic; in 1850, another arithmetic, prepared in conjunction with Horace Mann ; and in 1884, Elements of Meteorology [219] for Schools and Households ; Parts First and Second. He also delivered many lectures and addresses and made many contributions to periodical literature.
He was a member of many scientific and literary societies in the United States and foreign countries. He took the degree of Master of Arts at Cambridge, in 1844; the Magellanic medal of the American Philosophical Society was awarded to him in 1864, for his paper on the "Numerical relations of Gravity and Magnetism"; and the degree of LL.D. was conferred upon him by Haverford College in 1876.
Allen C. Thomas, a fellow professor at Haverford College, writes of him as follows:
"He could speak, with comparative ease, six or seven languages, while with the aid of a dictionary he could read one hundred and twenty, including dialects. He was one of the two or three men in the country who could read Eliot's Indian Bible. * * * He belonged to that class of philosophers who are ahead of their times, men who see, though it may be imperfectly and dimly, very deeply into the relation of things, and whose speculations, like those of the Marquis of Worcester, though misunderstood and perhaps even unintelligible to contemporaries, contain truths grasped and accepted by future generations. * * * Rarely does it fall to the lot of any one to meet a purer life, a kindlier heart, a greater simplicity, a more perfect humility. Never putting himself forward, he was always ready to listen to others, and always treated them with kindness and consideration. His own extensive attainments were kept in the background, so much so, indeed, that many of his friends were not by any means aware of the extent and variety of his knowledge."

Eliot Indian Bible
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (accessed 10/26/18)
"The Eliot Indian Bible (officially: Mamusse Wunneetupanatamwe Up-Biblum God,[1] a.k.a.: Algonquian Bible) was the first Bible published in British North America. English Puritan missionary John Eliot produced a translation of the Geneva Bible into the indigenous Massachusett language.[2] This is the reason that it is also known as Eliot's Indian Bible.[3][4] Mamusse Wunneetupanatamwe Up Biblum God and the cover page of the translated Bible means The Whole Holy His-Bible God, both Old Testament and also New Testament. This turned by the-servant-of-Christ, who is called John Eliot.[5]"

Bronze, probably first-second century C.E.
Condition: Complete and in an exceptional state of preservation.
H. 6 cm.
The chubby but dynamic-looking figure squats with buttocks projecting. With a derisive gesture, he sticks two fingers of his right hand into the corner of his mouth, probably to help produce a flatulent noise, while his left hand is thrust back to emphasize the appropriate action of his rear end. He wears a comic mask and a tight-fitting "body-suit" with a round, sweater-like neckline, covered with a fine crosshatched pattern. This costume has an anus indicated on the tights and is completed by a large, limp penis with dangles to ground between his legs. A narrow scarf, decorated with incised stripes, is worn over his left shoulder.
Spontaneous though it may seem, the posture is a traditional one, on the evidence of a Ptolemaic faience dwarf in the same position, as well as a comparable figure in terracotta. A bronze lamp in the form of a similarly posed but even more outrageous figure, which, if ancient, is evidently a Roman exaggeration of the type, was once in the Sambon collection. A number of Ptolemaic terracotta grotesques tug at one or both corners of their mouths, usually thrusting their tongues out, in a rude facial contortion which can indeed produce and eructive noise.
Our figure, unlike these forerunners, is characterized as an actor wearing a mask. His attire also seems to have Egyptian connections. Close-fitting network costumes are worn by at least two Ptolemaic terracotta actors. The dress appears in late antiquity as the characteristic garb of the comic muse Thalia on sarcophagi. Clearly, however, it had been in use for a long time before becoming so canonical as to be ascribed to the Muse. The scarf over the shoulder is seen in a series of Ptolemaic statuettes that have been connected with the Lagynophoria, a bibulous Dionysiac festival.
Representations of actors from the third century C.E. sometimes have a hatched or "quilted" pattern on their tights and sleeves. The late antique parallels, which include the Thalia figures, have led some observers to suggest a date in the late second or early third century C.E. for our statuette. The crisply defined modeling does indeed seem to be of Roman rather than Hellenistic times. However, the shameless impropriety of attire and gesture would seem to have been out of place in the increasingly prudish atmosphere of late paganism. A date in the first or early second century C.E. seems preferable, especially now that the network body-suit can be shown to have Hellenistic origins, perhaps based on older Egyptian craft traditions.

hidradenitis-suppurativa-cure.good-info.co/ Hidradenitis Suppurativa Treatment Home Remedies, Hs Skin Condition, Sweat Gland Disease. What is Hidradenitis Suppurativa?
Hidradenitis Suppurativa is a non-contagious skin disease that is also known as Acne Inversa. This condition affects areas of the body where there is skin to skin contact and where sweat or oil glands are present; common areas are the underarms, breasts, buttocks, anal region, and groin. It affects between 1 to 4% of the world's population, and is more likely to occur in females.
Symptoms
Hidradenitis Suppurativa is characterized by persistent abscesses, cysts (epidermoid, sebaceous, and pilonidal) and infections. The condition is chronic and often goes through alternating periods of remission and flare-ups. During flare-ups, the inflammation tends to be severe and patients may develop fever and be very fatigued. The pain can be unbearable and the person's movements will be very limited. The abscesses often drain pus and leave open wounds that may not heal. Eventually, abscesses may become interconnected through tunnels under skin and this makes the condition harder to treat.
Causes
The immediate cause of Hidradenitis Suppurativa is clogging of the apocrine glands, due to dead skin cells become trapped in the gland, over production of oil, or bacterial accumulation. This will cause the plug to swell with pus formation. What causes this simple blockage to progress into a full blow Hidradenitis Suppurativa case is still debated, however, possible theories include an auto-immune reaction, hormone imbalances and genetic disorders. It is also known that excessive sweating and being overweight will increase the risk of developing the condition. Furthermore, wearing tight clothing, excessive shaving, using lithium medications and hot humid climates have been identified as triggering factors.
Stages
Clinically, Hidradenitis Suppurativa is described to occur in three stages. Stage 1 is characterized by the presence of a single or multiple abscesses without scarring that may be misdiagnosed as acne. Stage 2 is characterized by recurrent abscesses, lesions and sinus tract formation. At this stage inflammation will limit the person's range of movement. Stage 3 is characterized by severe inflammation leading to swellings up to the size of baseballs. Scarring is prevalent, as are frequent infections.
Treatment
Hidradenitis Suppurativa treatment will depend on the clinical presentation and extent of the condition. Antibiotics may be prescribed to treat any infections and for anti-inflammatory effect. Corticosteroids, NSAIDs and other anti-inflammatory drugs are also widely used. For some cases, surgery may be needed. In Europe, Electron Beam Radiotherapy is also sometimes used.
Unfortunately, medical treatments for Hidradenitis Suppurativa are of very limited effectiveness and may cause side effects. Lifestyle changes, dietary intervention and natural extracts are often more effective at controlling the condition and sending it into remission, and indeed a complete cure is possible without any medical intervention. Lifestyle changes include the use of hydrotherapy, balneotherapy and icing of the area. Dietary intervention includes the adoption of an anti-inflammatory diet, use of specific vitamin and mineral supplements, and the achievement of a healthy bodyweight.

Canon EOS 5 & 55 being lined up for cleaning ahead of listing on ebay. In the end, I decided to keep them since, even in near mint condition, such cameras do not fetch good prices. The 28mm f/2.8 lens on the EOS 55 is worth more than the two camera bodies it seems! The EOS 5 sports a Sigma 24-70mm f/4-5.6 DC lens which actually performed very well but is not digital compatible.
From Wikipedia with additions from me:
The Canon EOS 50 (also known as the ELAN II in the USA and the EOS 55 in Japan) is an autofocus, auto-exposure 35mm SLR camera. It was aimed at the advanced amateur market, and featured a rear command dial, support for custom functions, and an optional BP-50 battery grip, with a dedicated portrait shutter release. The body was constructed of plastic, with the lens mount and top deck enclosed in an aluminium cover.
Three variants of the camera were produced, each of which was available with a quartz date imprint back. The basic model was the EOS 50. The EOS 50E variant introduced an enhanced version of the 3-zone eye-controlled autofocus system that was first seen on the EOS 5 camera. The Japan-only EOS 55 was available in an all-black version rather than the standard black and silver colour scheme and included a panorama option. Sliding the button at the bottom of the rear of the camera causes panels to mask off all of the negative except for a 13 mm x 36mm strip in the middle.
The EOS 50 was also the first camera to implement Canon's E-TTL flash system. Canon's previous TTL system metered light reflected from the film onto a sensor during the actual exposure. E-TTL on the other hand fires a low-intensity pre-flash before exposure, and meters the reflected light through the camera's normal metering system.
Sales of the EOS 50 began in September 1995, and ended after the introduction of the replacement model, the EOS 30 in October 2000.
The EOS 55 pictured was made available in the UK via Jessops and in very limited numbers. I bought it as I liked to play with the optional crop panorama feature which was switchable mid-roll. In my humble opinions, it remains a very beautiful camera for the era and was probably my favourite SLR film camera.
The Canon EOS 5 (sold as the EOS A2 and A2e in the USA) is a semi-professional autofocus, autoexposure 35 mm SLR film camera. It was sold from November 1992 onwards, and was replaced in late 1998 by the Canon EOS 3. As part of the EOS line of cameras, the EOS 5 utilised Canon's EF bayonet lens mount, first introduced in 1987.
The EOS 5 featured a built-in zoom flash, AF assist light, fast motor drives and several pre-set auto-exposure modes. Although marketed towards the "prosumer" user, the EOS 5 were popular among professional photographers. The camera was powered by a 6-volt lithium 2CR5 battery. The Canon VG-10 Vertical Grip (pictured) added a shutter release, control wheel, AE Lock button and Focus Point Selection button to the bottom of the camera for portrait orientation use and held 2x 2CR5 batteries but did not add AA batteries as a power source.
The camera had many operational modes available, selected by the dial on the left-hand side of the camera. These modes selected whether the exposure settings were set automatically, semi-automatically or fully manually. This dial also doubled as an on/off switch.
The Canon EOS 5 had three built-in metering modes: evaluative, centre-weighted average and spot. These were user-selectable by means of a button on the back of the camera and the command dial.
The EOS 5 featured eye-controlled focusing, which allowed the user to select from one of five focus points by looking at it through the viewfinder as well as activating depth-of-field preview by looking at a sixth point marked in the top-left corner of the viewfinder. At the time, this feature was unique to Canon. Although the EOS 5 had an optional vertical grip (pictured), the VG-10, the eye-controlled focusing feature only worked when the camera was held in horizontal orientation.
The EOS 5 has two dials to control exposure, one over the shutter button and one on the back of the camera. The dial above the shutter button will adjust the shutter speed in shutter priority TV/Time value mode, but in aperture priority Av/Aperture value mode this same dial will adjust the lens aperture. In full manual mode, the dial above the shutter reverts to adjusting the shutter speed, and the back dial controls the aperture.

This Deluxe was in very lovely condition when it was spotted as an exhibit at the 2014 Crich Tramway Village, Classic Transport Gathering on Sunday the 24th of August 2014. This particular Chevy was made back in 1949, but it was first registered in the UK on the 5th of July 2012, so it is a very recent import, probably from America. This one does have the original engine, a 3.5 Litre (3500cc) Straight-Six Thrift-Master engine which runs on petrol. This particular car when seen was very Americanised, which is unsurprising due to it being American, and it had white wall tires and also an American style plate to add to the image.
