A View of Maple Street in Historic Harmer Village. Harmer Village is just west of Marietta Ohio and sits just across the Muskingum River from Marietta. Because of its location at the confluence of the Muskingum and Ohio Rivers it was the site of a fort first established in the 1780's to protect the people who were establishing and setteling in Marietta Ohio. Harmer like Marietta has several historical homes that date back to the early 1800's.

Atrium of Holy Angels
by Harmer Architecture
The new GMCT mausoleum celebrates a centuries old tradition of arranging places for burial into a circle. The mausoleum is designed to be open and accessible from eight different points of the compass and these axes provide dramatic framed landscape views from within the new central courtyard and from around the outside perimeter of the building.
The mausoleum features an integrated colour palette using natural materials that give a comforting and welcoming atmosphere.
Memorial crypts are individualized using bands of contrasting coloured polished granite. Further choice of burial place is enhanced by crypts that either face the internal courtyard or look out to the surrounding cemetery landscape.
Architectural elements that integrate the building include the perforated stainless steel “curtains” that shelter the inner and outer galleries and also a solid timber lined ceiling and feature walls to the main entry area.
The mausoleum design is strongly related to the Harmer Architecture designed Holy Angels Mausoleum nearby, and most particularly the rear section of the Chapel of St. Gabriel which also features a circular layout and internal courtyard.
The new mausoleum is therefore a link to the ongoing transformation of Fawkner Memorial Park.
The new Atrium of Holy Angels Mausoleum at Fawkner Memorial Park was formally opened by the Catholic Archbishop of Melbourne, his Grace, The Most Reverend Denis Hart on Friday April the 7th.
Despite the peaceful look of these two houses, this neighborhood is one of the bleakest, stabbiest, human-traffickiest, most shoot-em-up areas of Sacramento, so I don't know what kinda cruel joke it is to name such a street Harms Way.
this makes me uncomfortable to put up here. but yeah, this is it. my thighs and that wrist are the worst looking places, but there's also scars elsewhere.
most of them have faded by now. luckily you can't see the things that used to be there,
edit (dec. 5th '10): things have changed. while i still self harm sometimes, my thighs look completely different. the colours of the scars has changed and some have faded, while some have been added. this photo is a year and a half old.

Oriental small-clawed otter (Aonyx cinerea)
What do I eat?
Oriental small-clawed otters will eat smaller animals, including crabs and molluscs (such as snails), fish, small mammals (such as mice), snakes, insects and frogs.
They use their paws to dig around in mud or move stones to find their prey. They are even known to leave crabs and snails out in the sun, as the heat will cause the shell (or exoskeleton) to open up slightly, making it easier for the otters to eat them!
Where do I live?
These otters are found in many areas from east to south Asia. They can be found in areas of north-western and south-western India, southern China, the Malay Peninsula, Sumatra, Java, Borneo as well as areas in the Philippines and Indonesia.
Oriental small-clawed otters prefer to live in wetland areas that have places for them to find food, muddy banks for them to dig out burrows and also have sources of freshwater. These areas include lakes, streams, reservoirs, canals, peat swamp forests, rice fields, mangroves and even along the coast.
Breeding
Once these animals find their perfect mate, then they will stay together for life (monogamous), and can stay in loose family groups of up to 12 otters!
The female will build a nest out of grasses in a burrow before she gives birth to 1-6 young (usually 1 or 2). Young otters are born with their eyes closed and will not open them until around 5-6 weeks old. They will start to explore away from the nest site with their parents and start to swim from about 9-12 weeks old. These young otters are mature and able to breed from 2-3 years old.
Predators
Natural predators of the Oriental small-clawed otter are not well known, however snakes and crocodiles may be a threat to them.
Oriental small-clawed otters are strong and agile swimmers, and they may use this to their advantage to get away from other animals that may harm them.
Conservation
Loss of habitat is a big problem for these animals. Areas they were once found in are being destroyed by deforestation, more land wanted for farming (i.e. for tea and coffee plantations) and for more human settlements. Pollution is another problem for these animals, as it not only affects them but also the animals that the otters hunt, and without their source of food they cannot survive. Otters have also been hunted for their fur, traditional medicines and are also seen as a pest as they are often seen in rice paddy fields.
To protect the Oriental small-clawed otter, they can be found in some national parks across their range, and they are also linked with many captive breeding programs in different zoos around the world.

The festival of Samhain celebrates the end of the "lighter half" of the year and beginning of the "darker half", and is sometimes regarded as the "Celtic New Year".
The celebration has some elements of the festival of the dead, also known as Parentalia. The ancient Celts believed that the border between this world and the Otherworld became thin on Samhain, allowing spirits (both harmless and harmful) to pass through. The family's ancestors were honoured and invited home whilst harmful spirits were warded off. It is believed that the need to ward off harmful spirits led to the wearing of costumes and masks. Their purpose was to disguise oneself as a harmful spirit and thus avoid harm. In Scotland the spirits were impersonated by young men dressed in white with masked, veiled or blackened faces. Samhain was also a time to take stock of food supplies and slaughter livestock for winter stores. Bonfires played a large part in the festivities. All other fires were doused and each home lit their hearth from the bonfire. The bones of slaughtered livestock were cast into its flames. Sometimes two bonfires would be built side-by-side, and people and their livestock would walk between them as a cleansing ritual.
Another common practise was divination, which often involved the use of food and drink.
The name 'Halloween' and many of its present-day traditions derive from the Old English era
