Unspoilt, peaceful, Georgian country parish church, mostly dating from 1719-20 but built on the foundation of a much older church. From the outside, it is a handsome church, X-plan, with an additional wing at the west end, topped by a belfry tower, containing the ducal retiring rooms. The interior, renovated 1784-5 and re-arranged circa 1870, has a typical presbyterian layout with central pulpit and three galleries. Many of the box pews have a central communion table. The north aisle of the church is taller and more sophisticated, built for the Duke of Queensberry and remaining from the earlier church. Inside the Queensberry Aisle is the real jewel of the church: the most amazing monument for the Queensberry burial vault, a baroque mural monument and free-standing baldacchino carved in 1695 by John van Nost to the design of James Smith who was also architect of the later church. A riot of swagged fabric, garlands of flowers, urns, barley-sugar columns, cherubs, skulls and pediments, all in gleaming white marble. 'There are few buildings in which baroque magnificence and presbyterian decency are so happily combined.' (George Hay, Architecture of Scottish Post-Reformation Churches). The churchyard contains some fine 17th-19th century stone monuments, many with classical ornament, including the martyr's monument to Daniel MacMichael and the 1685 monument to the children of William Lukup, Master of Works at nearby Drumlanrig.

It is amazing that the spin by the US govt about how the trials are going to be fair and just are just accepted by the ignorant sheep. These trials are going to be held by the Military Commissions which were actually deemed illegal by the Supreme Court. After waterboarding the detainees, which is in violation of the US constitution and International Law, these detainees are brought to trial, finally, and the Bush REGIME has the audacity to suggest that this will be a very fair trial and they have actually been treated very fairly.

 

Another puppet court like the one that tried Saddam and then they call America the beacon of hope and the shining light of freedom across the world.

 

What will it take for people for get their heads out of the sand?

 

While on this topic, also have a look at this article by Ray McGovern, a person I hold in very high regard: Waterboarding for God, With Decency and Compassion

Introducing: Treazon

 

Tuberose stems unveil toxic wintergreen; narcotic blossoms stare at death across the street.

Nightfall. Window screens.

 

Treazon is tuberose at its darkest and most dangerous moment – right after dark.

From than on, the seemingly innocent little white flowers’ aroma is so intoxicating,

that young ladies were prohibited from walking through tuberose fields, from fear that

their decency will be betrayed, and their innocence defeated by lust.

Aniseed, Cinnamon, Wintergreen, Sweet Birch, Cassis

 

Heart notes: Tuberose Absolute, Orange Blossom, Orris Root

We found the knife sticking in Elspeth’s ribs.

 

Well … there was no knife. As for Elspeth ...

 

It was a bright and glorious day. Maybe a cloud. Some kind of sultry wind. A few birds plaguing the air with song.

 

Erika came out of the bathhouse in her pink bikini. She glowed with robust good health and a total disregard for the standards of decency.

 

Rafe, who fainted more often than was advisable for an airline pilot, threw his towel down next to Audrey, who’d thrown her towel down next to Joseph, who was putting lotion on Clio’s back. Clio was reading War and Peace. Everyone felt faint knowing they were going to have to listen to Clio mispronounce all those Russian names. Supper would be a very long ordeal.

 

Archie had forgotten his towel so he used Samantha’s beach jacket, which got Cyril really hot, although not as hot as Samantha because the sun was now boiling in the sky— radishes were growing everywhere on the beach towels. It was a kind of heat I remember from those days I keep trying to forget.

 

So here’s what happened next: Claude, whom no one liked but everyone was afraid of, came running out of the house with a gun and fell on Rafe’s neck with the thing and started sawing away at Rafe when the bell rang indicating time for our TV shows. After the shows, someone named Elspeth was lying in a pool of substance that looked like blackberry juice but was probably blood. It got very quiet. Then it got noisy.

  

Most of us wouldn’t have liked Elspeth anyway—even if we’d known her.

They had the decency to put quotes around "hour" when as usual the happy hour is around three hours.

A Canadian in a new Barbour, even in Whitby in the rain, remains indelibly a Canadian. Perhaps David's grandson will one day inherit this coat, by which time it will just about be 'gently worn'.

WAY TO PRESERVE THE INTEGRITY OF THE GAME, GOODELL!!!

Wow... any fan of professional football who witnessed the debacle on MNF last night should be ready and willing to take up the pitchfork and torch, and storm the office of one Rodger Goodell. How could any Seahawk - player, coach, or fan, - feel good about the outcome of that game? Might as well be watching pro-wrestling...

HEY OWNERS, TIME TO QUIT BEING THE GREEDY S.O.B.'s YOU ARE, AND PAY THE REF's WHAT THEY DESERVE!!!

Oh, and Rodger, yeah, wanna leave a legacy which contains any shred of legitimacy or decency? Get the real refs back out on the FRIGGIN' field and then resign... IMMEDIATELY!!!

Catching up on some back shots from the beginning of the year

 

On a walk around the Addington Cemetery with a wonderful Flickr friend. February 13, 2016 Christchurch New Zealand.

 

There is so much damaged in the cemetery because of the earthquake we have had. It is such a pity as I don' think it will ever be fully repaired.

 

The Addington Cemetery was established in 1858 when the Scottish Presbyterians of St Andrew’s Church purchased land for a cemetery in Selwyn Street. Although not the first cemetery in Christchurch, Addington was in fact the first “public” cemetery, “being open to all persons of any religious community” and allowing the performance of any religious service “not contrary to public decency”.

 

The first burial took place on the 10th of November 1858. The cemetery has several persons of note buried within its grounds including activist Kate Sheppard, Christchurch Mayor Tommy Taylor and members of the pioneer family, the Deans.

Ok, so here is the scene of the crime. I know it's disturbing, but please look closely, and you will see the evidence clearly. Now i know that it is a formality to analyze this scene because anyone with half an eyeball can clearly see that this is the aftermath of some seriously raunchy hokey-pokey. What kind of sick fuck would plow a vagina (or man-anus????) to the point of spraying blood on his wall and not have the decency to hide the evidence from his girlfriend? Fuck this asshole!

The (double entendre) saucy seaside postcard genre (a peculiarly British thing) was under attack. Those self appointed guardians of public decency and morality were always on the lookout and prompting police raids to seize and destroy shop stocks. In 1954 the most famous and prolific artist of this genre, Donald McGill, was prosecuted under The Obscene Publications Act. I suppose it was almost farcical, he was nearly 80 and the Act was a hundred years old and out of date. He might argue the comment on the card was innocent and you had to have a dirty mind to see anything else but he lost the case. To complete the farce the Act was updated a few later but that didn’t save thousands of cards from being destroyed and a number of publishers and retailers from going broke.

Darlinda defies description, decency and decorum... darn?

This woodpecker next to Portencross Road today had the decency to advertise her presence by drumming on a tree, then to pose, framing herself artistically between the branches.

I perform a cappella singing and spoken word at the Woodview Coffeehouse in Lecanto, FL. My singing is scatting -- i.e., wordless -- and I make up the tune as I go along. No two renditions are the same.

 

Most of the Woodview performers are musicians singing their own or other people's work. As I listened to them over the months, I had a hankering to write a song, something that had particular music and lyrics.

 

Last year, an especially hefty swarm of love bugs (Plecia nearctica) gave me my opening.

 

"The lucky in love spend about three days together gorging on nectar and pollen, gleefully snorting tailpipe exhaust, flaunting their marathon lust on the breezes," wrote Amber Mobley last year in her St. Petersburg Times article, "Feel like telling them 'Get a room'?" "Lacking the decency to get a room, these two are intimate the entire time. Eat, copulate, repeat."

 

"The Nearctica Waltz" received its public premiere this past August at Denvention 3/Worldcon. I'd performed it during the speculative poetry panel and introduced it as, "a musical poem with visual aid," because I'd printed out an 8x10 of this photo and held it up for the audience.

 

My Friday night audience at Woodview needed no such explanation. This fall the love bugs made a rather modest (as it were) appearance in my area -- nothing anywhere close to the thick, lusty clouds last year that made me say I feel a song comin' on!

 

(My skill in writing music is mediocre at best, but I wanted to get the general idea down.)

 

My blog entry with typed lyrics is here. You can hear Friday night's (Oct. 3, 2008) rendition here.

Leaflet issued by the Young Socialists group of the Labour Party. This leaflet is undated. However, it is likely that it dates from some point in the early 1960s. The Young Socialists were founded as a new national Labour Party youth organisation in 1960. In 1965 this group was renamed the Labour Party Young Socialists. The leaflet reads "Britain needs people like you, with energy, ideas, the time to spare and a conscious to trigger off a blazing campaign against injustice, stupidity, meanness and greed- and for fairness, decency, pride and a world fit for our generation to inherit".

The farthest star and the mud at my feet are a family; and there is no decency or sense in honoring one thing, or a few things, and then closing the list.

Catching up on some back shots from the beginning of the year

 

On a walk around the Addington Cemetery with a wonderful Flickr friend. February 13, 2016 Christchurch New Zealand.

 

There is so much damaged in the cemetery because of the earthquake we have had. It is such a pity as I don' think it will ever be fully repaired.

 

The Addington Cemetery was established in 1858 when the Scottish Presbyterians of St Andrew’s Church purchased land for a cemetery in Selwyn Street. Although not the first cemetery in Christchurch, Addington was in fact the first “public” cemetery, “being open to all persons of any religious community” and allowing the performance of any religious service “not contrary to public decency”.

 

The first burial took place on the 10th of November 1858. The cemetery has several persons of note buried within its grounds including activist Kate Sheppard, Christchurch Mayor Tommy Taylor and members of the pioneer family, the Deans.

Better pics coz the original one I posted before it aired was only to get everyone talking, which it quite successfully did. LOL

 

p.s. if you are gonna post my copyrighted images elsewhere on the internet at least have the decency to credit me with them or link them back to here, or i'll probably stop posting them or at least start putting big watermarks on them.

I am just ready to forgive my cat after suffering (mild) PTSD, having found him crunching on a poor small creatures skull at 3am this morning. I needed paracetamol at 3 am and wandered into the pantry to find (literally) blood & guts all over the floor.

 

He had the decency to show remorse and skulk away (I anthropromorphize) ... just when did he learn to unlock the cat flap at night?

 

However this cat does captivate most people who meet him- not only is he quite an unusual looking cat but he has bags of character too. He is typical of most Siamese in that he is a very sociable cat & positively laps up any attention paid to him!
