We froze Kerri's panties at a slumber party! Eeeek! And lots of other stupid/mean things. But it was all in good fun. No matter, because she won: She became a cheerleader and was way more popular than I was anyway.
German missionaries were among the first free European settlers to Moreton Bay. In 1837, the Reverend J C S Handt was sent to Moreton Bay as a missionary to the Aborigines and as penal chaplain.
Some of the missionary families to follow were Eipper, Albrecht, Doege, Franz, Hartenstein, Haussmann, Niquet, Rode, Schneider, Wagner and Zillman. German Station, which was founded by the families of the German mission later became the locality of Nundah.
I read a news story recently that stated that the town of Bad Doberan, Germany was embarrassed during the G8 Summit in June, 2007, by their link to Adolf Hitler in which the town was the first to grant Hitler an honourary citizenship in August of 1932 after the Nazi Party won a majority in regional elections there.
Well, this is not true. They were not the first to do so, in fact, the town of Rosenkopf would now be the first (July 22nd, 1932), as I own the original citizenship document that the town presented to Hitler.
I purchased this framed document a few years ago from a seller in the United States who appeared to not realize what he had in his possession at the time.
Here is a bit of background about these documents that were presented to Hitler as he was rising to power in the 1930's:
From the BBC - More than 4,000 towns and cities awarded Hitler the title of honorary citizen during the Nazi period. Most revoked that honour after 1945.

This book of English heraldry was completed ca. 1589. The manuscript belonged to the Spencer family, as known through inscriptions on the first few flyleaves, including the motto "Dieu defende Le Droit" (God defends the right). This motto has long been associated with the Spencer family of England, which is the family line of Princess Diana, as well as the Spencers who were among the founders of Virginia. The Spencer family's heraldry is included in the manuscript, along with the coats of arms of numerous prominent British families, including the Hasting, Gray, Beuford, and Percye families. There is another similar book of English Heraldry in the British Library, Stowe MS 693, which was also completed at the end of the sixteenth century.

Set of photos of pages from an old Special Traffic Notice detailing the arrangements in connection with the introduction of colour light signalling through East Croydon and Purley on the Brighton Main Line some 60 years ago in May 1955.
Fascinating stuff for me to see in the 18 page document including (in no particular order):-
Twelve hour clock.
Blackboards to be exhibited in prominent positions (page 2).
Yeovil Town to Gravesend Central milk train (page 2).
Coulsdon North station being open at weekends.
Victoria to provide brake van for Redhill portion of diverted 9.30pm Parcels from Victoria to Brighton (page 4).
Light engine movements to Bricklayers Arms Shed.
'Road motor' replacement for staff between various locations.
4.45am & 4.50am (Pass & News) from London Bridge being diverted via the Mid Kent line, Selsdon and Oxted as well as running south of East Grinstead to Horsted Keynes and then via Ardingly to Haywards Heath. (page 9).
5.15am (Pass & News) from East Croydon to Bognor Regis starting from London Bridge and running via the Mid Kent line, Oxted, Crowhurst Spur to Edenbridge, where a Turnover Engine (TE) took the train to Redhill where another 'TE' took the train on towards the Sussex coast '8 minutes later thence' (page 9).
9.28pm (Pass & Postal) from Margate to Cannon Street running via Edenbridge, Crowhurst Spur, Oxted, Selsdon and the Mid Kent line (page 10).
The interesting freight movements on pages 14 & 15 (including empty wooden mineral wagons to Merstham) with trains either being worked by Electric Locos (EL) or Steam Hauled (SH). Some of the freights were revised to run via Horsham and Shorehan by Sea via Steyning.
District Inspector Anscombe had a busy couple of nights being in attendance at Horsham Yard from 11.0pm Saturday and Three bridges Yard from 10.0pm Sunday.
For me I think the best part is the simplicity of it all, just an 18 page traffic notice for introduction of colour light signalling over one Saturday night. 60 years on of course and there would now be Project Managers and the like and the line would be shut all weekend. Still at least things are more efficient now aren't they!................

Three Rings for the Elven-kings under the sky,
Seven for the Dwarf-lords in their halls of stone,
Nine for Mortal Men doomed to die,
One for the Dark Lord on his dark throne
In the Land of Mordor where the Shadows lie.
One Ring to rule them all, One Ring to find them,
One Ring to bring them all and in the darkness bind them
In the Land of Mordor where the Shadows lie.

It's surprisingly hard to get a sense of what's going on in a protest when you're in the thick of it. Here, one protester takes a moment to turn around and take a quick snap behind her.
Some desatution and lower contrast for a more aged feel, but I think the rendering of the Apoqualia is really absolutely stunning. I had never thought I would become so enthralled with a 28mm lens, and I'm curious if I would have had a similar reaction to the Summilux on the Leica Q or the Summilux/Summicron-M lenses.
Some people have expressed interest in seeing how the Apoqualia performs on a non-rangefinder full frame sensor. It's not entirely fair to use the SL here, since I suspect Leica put some thought into how their own (and similarly designed) lenses would handle, but any smearing you see here is a result of my having blown the exposure by not paying attention to the sheer range between the protesters and the open sky.

"[...] førelsen av de 4 reliefer som danner
overgangen mellem kapitæl og søile,
og saasnart jeg ser mig økonomisk istand

- De sendte mig ihøst et telegram hvori
De bebreider mig at kapitælet "trods løfte"
endnu ikke var færdig og avsendt til
Tønsberg, og nævnte samtidig noget om
"skandale i aviserne". - Hertil vil
jeg bemærke at jeg for det første slet ikke

og skulde bli leveret straks det var færdig.
Hvad slags "skandale" aviserne skulde
lave av dette forstaar jeg ikke - "skandalen"
vilde ihvertfald ikke ramme mig. Mit

Postcard sent from his brother: H.M. Rankin / U.S. A. T. Kilpatrick / Manila P.O. / Eng's Depart / sent from Port Said, Egypt - 4 December 1900. Message on postcard reads: Dear Bro, I haven't time to write a letter at this port, will try and do so, either Colombo, Ceylon or Singapore, India. We arrived at this port this morning & will leave again Thursday for Aden through the Suez Canal. I sent you a letter from ?????? hope you received the same in safely. From Your Bro H. Write as soon as you get this and mail to the Ship so that I will get it before we leave for San Francisco, Cal. - address - H.M. Rankin / U.S.A.T. Kilpatrick / Manila / Eng's Dept. P.O. (It was hard to read the address - so he wrote) Address on other side - turn over / Will write as soon a possible.
The 'U.S.A.T. Kilpatrick' began life as the SS Michigan, beginning service in September 1891 as a cargo vessel with limited passenger accomodation. In 1898, she was sold to the US government, to act as a military transport during the war. She was capable of hauling 840 men, and 800 horses. While not an active participant in the Spanish American war, she did subsequent duty in transport service to the PI, as this log documents. Capt Rogers begins his entries Saturday Dec. 31st 1898, noting relief of Cap. Jeffreys, taking command of U.S.A.T. Michigan, departing for Havana at 9 pm. The final entry is Sept. 2nd, 02, noting position/course details of a "Manila to Frisco" run. This log a first-hand account of the ship's life, recording location, etc. Details of the Captain's or crew's life are, for the most part, absent.
DUFFERIN, (Pictou County), Nova Scotia - Dufferin Siding is located near the head of the south Caribou River on the line of the Canadian National Railways between Pictou and Oxford Junction. It was probably named after the Earl of Dufferin, Governor-General of Canada, 1872 to 1878. An early name was HARDWOOD HILL and that name is in general use today.
LYONS BROOK, (Pictou County), Nova Scotia - This rural area is located on the west side of West River. It was named after Rev. James Lyon an early Presbyterian minister in the province. In 1903, by act of the Provincial Legislature this name was officially given to an area previously know as "LOGANS TANNERY", "Scotch Hill West River Road" and "Lyons Brook."
Ethelyn Hinson is my great aunt. She was nine years old at the time she attended the 1893 Chicago World's Fair. Her family lived in Chicago.
