Lighting in the fire-proof 'strong room' at the former Land Titles Office building in Queen Street, Melbourne. Constructed in 1874-1879, this building has not been used for decades. The complex is now owned by the Victoria University of Technology.
Some of the features include slate shelving and fireproof flooring.

Massive, virtually fireproof, and highly resistant to decay, the Giant Sequoia is quite impenetrable fully grown. In fact the main cause of death is ironically the shallow roots, which have to keep the large tree standing without a taproot. Inevitably, high winds and heavy snow, usually coupled with fire damage, are the main causes of a mature Sequoia's demise as the tree simply topples over.

It was built at Park Works, West Bromwich (Roebuck Street?) in the latter half of the 19th century, and was designed to be wedge and fireproof, in accordance with the triple patented design that he held.

BIG MOUTH: contemporary feminist voices in art and illustration
OPENING AUGUST 9 @ BROOKLYN FIREPROOF
a group show featuring
Suzy Exposito / Molly Fair / Kim Funk / Kathleen Hanna
J. Morrison / Adee Roberson / Gabby Schulz
Curated by Kate Wadkins + Lauren Denitzio, BIG MOUTH: contemporary voices in feminist art + illustration is a platform for unpopular visual opinions. Feminist movements have historically grown out of interventions within radical communities in the face of silence, anger, and often, violence. Still, these conflicts and contentions are fought with the utmost passion and humor in hopes for a radical resolution. BIG MOUTH illustrates the ever-evolving search for feminist/queer identities and communities. This group show places feminist narratives at the center of radical art-making, where often our voices are poorly represented or left out altogether. BIG MOUTH is a celebration of our pluralism, our goofiness, and a proclamation of defiant love.

Postmarked January 27, 1920, at Cedar Rapids; addressed to Mrs. Ezra C. Wheeler at 600 W. 204th Street in New York City.
[Note that when Fritz wrote this, Prohibition had been in effect for nine days; this letter (and others he wrote in the coming few years) has a preoccupation with booze.]
Jan. 26, 1920.
Dear Jane and All,
Have been going to write you ever since I left home, but I have been so busy.
Have been making an orchestration for an act also learning the “Prelude” by Rachmaninoff [youtu.be/SCm9O2KNEX4?si=Wt9tyeFOqaQvC5IE] for our upcoming next week in Minneapolis, Minn. at Pantages Theatre.
Please send on my shoes and that brown army sweater of mine for the cold weather up north.
Have just written [eldest brother] Will and the folks at home all my news.
In Dubuque I met the Alderman and we had a qt of liquor, sloe gin, 2 qts of the best champagne and “cognac.” Oh! what a party. I didn’t drink much.
Also met a bunch of society gals and fellers and attended the American Legion dance there. Had a great time.
Davenport was nice. Met a young couple there that wanted us to go out to their home with them to drink champagne and liquor but we refused.
A friend of mine that same day came over from Moline with a half pint of liquor and gave me a drink. Oh! Boy!
Jimmy [Casson, his stage partner and ostensible boss] fired me last night and re-engaged me to-day. We had a terrible argument over my piano solo. I was in the right and that is why I won out. He accused me of laying down and I told him what he could do and he said “Get out.” This morning he got me back again. Such fun we have!
How’s Ez [Ezra, his brother-in-law] and son [his nephew Anthony Wheeler]? Suppose they are as well as ever.
I’m looking forward to a bright and happy vacation this summer with a cottage up the river.
I never write home this stuff about Jimmy or about the booze.
In a few weeks we will have all the booze we want in Canada.
Write soon, love and kisses to you all,
I am
Your loving brother,
[signed] Fritz

-1/2" grey rubber screw protector
and
-5/16" black rubber vacuum caps
combined replace the backrest bumpers (see Upholstery 16)
-#10-16 x 3/4" self drilling screws are the exact thread match and head size (8mm socket) for the 4 screws that hold the seat to the base (the 4 holes you can see in Disassembly 6) EXCEPT the original ones I have are not self-tapping, and I couldn't find plain ones with the same thread, so i cut the chisel part off w/ bolt cutters (it might take a few tries to get a cut that doesn't mess up the threads). Anyhow, works great, installs and tightens just like the original ones.
-White Lithium Grease, the label said to lube the center post w/ high temp grease. I cleaned off the old stuff, and smeared this on. Swivels great now.
With another gray day, I just didn't want to throw another dull picture in, so I was going to put together a still life. I then realized how much I enjoyed the devotion my husband and I read together this morning and thought it might be a nice thing to share. If you view the Original Size, you can read this very meaningful text. Also, I put a small image of the book cover in the corner in case viewers here might also like to get this book. In addition, the ISBN to search for it is 1433668238. I think it's one of the best couple's devotions I've read yet, and I'm a huge fan of the Fireproof movie.
Note: The devotional is numbered to 365, so it can be started on any day of the year. It also allows that if you miss a day here and there, you don't feel like you have to catch up. Today, we read "Day 7" but I've included yesterday's and today's in this image.
