At church yesterday morning the Old Testament lesson was Isaiah 5: 1-7

Our church has copies of the New International Version under each chair for the congregation to follow the reading. All the copies of the Bible appear to be identical. My son was using the one you see above and I was using the lower one. After the reading it was pointed out that there is a misprint ! Read the second half of verse one carefully.

You will see that the paper of the copy I was using is slightly different so probably came from a different printing.

It is very rare for misprints to appear in Bibles, especially nowadays with computer typesetting.

 

The New Testament lesson was Matthew 21: 33-45 where Jesus tells the parable of the vineyard owner. The parallel passage is Luke 20: 1-9 and there is a famously misprinted version, the Vinegar Bible, where Luke Chapter 20 is headed The Parable of the Vinegar.

My Father, Thomas Edwin Adams, June 28, 1920 – May 13, 2010

I love you dad!

  

Thomas Edwin Adams, Jr. passed away peacefully at his daughter''s home in Centreville, Virginia on May 13, 2010 with his family at his bedside.

 

Son to Thomas Edwin Adams, Sr. and Agnes Kennedy Adams, Tom Adams was born on June 28, 1920 in Washington, D.C. A proud native Virginian, he graduated at age 15 from Fairfax High School class of 1936. He was an excellent athlete and an accomplished tenor. Married in 1942, he was the devoted and loving husband of 44 years to Mary Ellen (Estes) Adams, who passed on Oct.19, 1987.

 

Tom Adams graduated from American University in Washington, D.C., with a B.A. in History and Government in 1946. He attended Washington & Lee University Law School in Lexington, VA. A veteran of WWII, Tom Adams received the Bronze Star for Bravery and the Purple Heart while serving in the Pacific campaign with the 17th Infantry Regiment as a platoon leader and company commander. During the Korean conflict he served in the 2nd Battalion of the 15th Infantry, 3rd Division as a rifle platoon leader. Before retiring from the U.S. Army in 1967, Lt. Col. Adams served as legal officer for the 15th Infantry Regiment in Fort Benning, GA, as Boards and Investigations Officer at Ft. Myer in Arlington, VA and as military historian at the Pentagon.

 

Tom Adams pursued a second career on Capitol Hill as the Legislative and Special Assistant to U.S. Congressman Joel T. Broyhill (10th Congressional District) of Virginia and for U.S. Congressman W.C. (Bill) Wampler Sr. (9th Congressional District). He retired from politics in 1984 following his service on the staff of the U.S. House Agriculture Committee. Tom Adams worked to pass legislation to create and fund the Washington Metro rail system and to fund the Virginia-Maryland Regional College of Veterinary Medicine. He was the principal staff architect of the agriculture title of the 1977 Food and Agriculture Act. Tom Adams'' retirement after 42 years of Federal service appeared in the Feb. 1, 1984 U.S. Congressional Record.

 

Tom and Mary Adams retired to Highland County, Virginia to start another chapter of their lives enjoying grandchildren and great grandchildren, their children, and many family and friends of the surrounding mountains and Shenandoah Valley.

 

Tom Adams will be remembered as a Virginian, an American, a devote husband and father, and as a man that instilled character and comfort in those he touched.

 

Tom Adams is survived by his eight children: Ellen Price, Susan Stanhope, Thomas Edwin, Laura Lewis, Elizabeth Kennedy, Samuel Glenn, Joseph Estes, and James Benjamin, 18 grandchildren, 12 great grandchildren, and siblings Robert L. Adams, Betty A. Baker, and Joan A. Vipperman. Tom Adams was also pre-deceased by loving brothers Bert and John, and sister Anne Gresham.

Sometimes we do things out of ignorance so that makes it perfectly normal until we learn the difference....

More than 100 Soldiers, Civilians, Retirees and Family Members joined Korean volunteers today for the second annual Humphreys Make a Difference Day at Deog Dong San Park in Pyeongtaek.

The volunteers spent the morning picking up trash, raking leaves and conducting beautification projects under the watchful eyes of the Pyeongtaek City Parks and Greenbelt Management Division.

Following the work the volunteers enjoyed lunch, a performance by the ShinHan Middle School traditional dance team and a post-work awards ceremony.

I was just fooling around in computer arts when I finished my project and came up with this ;D

Scavenge Challenge - Feb 2013 - Scavchal #1 - Spot the differences! - Make two shots using the same framing with 8 differences (8 - no more, no less) such as added items, items removed, items turned left or right, tipped upside down, etc. and post the two images as a diptych. Differences should be large enough to see without enlarging the photos excessively.

Solutions should be submitted to the photographer by Flickrmail ONLY (do not post them in comments!) At the end of the month or when a number of correct solutions have been received, the photographer should post a list of the differences with the image.

 

113 Pictures in 2013 - #16 - Spot the difference (present two images in a diptych with one or more differences to see if others can spot the differences).

 

In the spirit of good fun - please send me your answers by Flickrmail - not in comments!

What a difference two years can make!

 

In the early 1900's - during and after WWI - these apartment buildings were built for African American laborers and their families. The workers were recruited, mostly from the south, to work in factories in the northern industrial towns like Fairbanks Morse Co. in Beloit. (Labor was scarce due to demands labor and military service in WWI.)

Today it's my turn to pick a group for FGR, so I chose Spot the Difference - with the added bonus that these pics can also go into the Diptychs group.

 

Can you spot the differences? Have a look at the large version and then put notes on the ones you can see.

 

I may do another version later today if I get more time.

I have updated my Art-Craft model after some thought, making it a little more difficult to get to fine art from a very craft operation like a factory robot operation (still programmed by a highly skilled human, though), I also added a 'juvenile' area, the place where we all start from when we are born.

 

To make it slightly less like a graph and more like the image in my mind, I have added some graphics - the organisation of Craft, the unmapped forest of Art, and the natural ascent into skill (by balloon).

LOGGING AT KAPOOR

 

It seems history does repeat itself.

 

Kapoor Singh Siddoo (called Kapoor) built his sawmill in 1928 where the CNR railway tracks crossed Council Creek at the southern end of Sooke Lake. Kapoor Lumber Company Ltd.'s mailing address was Mile 35 C.N.R. Kapoor Lumber Company has retained ownership of some large parcels of land in the area ever since. In fact, it is through the good graces of Kapoor Lumber that Galloping Goose Trail (GGT) users can proceed beyond the gate where the GGT officially ends beyond the 55km signpost.

 

Recently, starting in 2009, Kapoor Lumber has begun logging their land next to the Galloping Goose Trail north of Old Wolfe Creek. There's probably no doubt this company has every right to do so but please consider the following observations:

 

There is a proposal on the table to have constructed a continues trail for hikers and cyclists to traverse Vancouver Island from one end to the other.

 

The plan is to extend the Canadian National Pacific Railway (GGT) trail to the Trans Canada Trail (TCT) and then to the The Runners Trail.

 

The Runners Trail project, named for the Aboriginal runners who carried messages between the Ditidaht and Tseshaht villages, will link the Cowichan and Alberni valleys. The Tseshaht, who will manage the project, are permitting a portion of the

trail to run through their traditional territory and plan to erect interpretive signs explaining the historic and cultural significance of the area. The project is expected to cost $929,000 and ICET provided $450,000 in funding for the western half of the trail and the city contributed a grant from a fund aimed at creating jobs. The Ditidaht First Nation has applied for funding to build the eastern half of the trail, which will run from Frances Lake to Kissinger.

 

What has this to do with Kapoor Lumber logging alongside the GGT?

 

Once the logs are loaded onto trucks, these vehicles have access through the Capital Regional District Water District's Sooke Lake Reservoir roads. The old Sooke Lake Road used to track the eastern shores of Sooke Lake but after raising of the dam much of it was covered in water. This necessitated the building of another road along the western side -- but quite far removed -- from the lake. Anyone taking the CRD's free watershed tour in the month of May is familiar with this route which connects to Sooke Lake Road and onto Shawnigan Lake Road. From here the logging trucks make connections with any Vancouver Island destinations.

 

This begs the question: If fully laden logging trucks can use this route why can't it be used to form the southern connection of the Runner's Trail and become part of the Trans Canada Trail link between the Galloping Goose Trail in the south to the Trans Canada Trail at Sooke Lake Road on the north?

 

There's been much written about watershed security thus limiting access by the public. Anyone wanting to access the CRD watershed can do so by simply walking through the opening in the wire fence on the western side of the red gate at the end of the GGT. Many do. Some, just to look around and examine the small diameter waterflow pipeline in that area.

 

Therefore, this continuous Vancouver Island Railtrail could be opened through the CRD Watershed roads on a trial basis. Perhaps, only on designated days. Wire fencing could erected to contain the trail and it could be patrolled by select volunteers. This would preclude the necessity of constructing an entirely new route over the Malahat from Gold Stream Park to connect to the TCT at Sooke Lake Road.

 

Think about it.

I thought I’d wait for a returning D-Train after the passing of 6H10 Cemex. While there, an artic clattered and brought down a barrier on the north side. The approaching D-Train was held at the signal while Police and Network Rail quickly got traffic moving and set to work repairing the fallen barrier. No-one was injured.

Sun emerging.

The variety of terrain on The Big Island of Hawaii is crazy -- we drove from Hilo all the way around the east side of the island to our hotel just outside of Kona. The drive was definitely worth the time -- just to appreciate the vast differences between each area of the island.

What a great lens will do

Preston Bus Station - the long distance coach end which used to be a taxi pick and set down point. In later times it looked absolutely awful and the haunt of drunks and yobs

no lie, me and victoria ACTUALLY FOUND a random converse that was traced. lols.

Yay! I finally got to play along with FGR again!

This is for Spot the Difference and Diptychs, for FGR today.

 

Okay...there are 6 differences (besides the slight tilt of my head - didn't mean to do that).

Can you figure them out? Leave notes! :)

Very much contrasting in style are these two Leyland Titan buses seen on display in the car park of the Wirral Met College, Twelve Quays Campus, Shore Road, Morpeth Dock, Birkenhead, during the Wirral Transport Show, on 06/10/2024. Slightly nearest the camera is preserved Liverpool Corporation Transport, L255, VKB711, a Crossley bodied PD2/20. This was new to Liverpool in 11/1956. Alongside is preserved St. Helens Corporation Transport, L29, RDJ729, an East Lancs bodied PD2A/30. It was new to St. Helens in 06/1962. it spent many a year in Canada prior to returning to home shores. This has the 'St. Helens' bonnet front while L255 has the 'tin' bonnet front. © Peter Steel 2024.
