El nuevo miembro de la familia, Hook, es una hamster ruso salvaje que llego el dia 20 de Noviembre. Su dueña le tenia alergia y me lo dió a mi.
Hook Head wild and elemental, tranquil and serene, in its serenity hides the treachery which awaits unsuspecting mariners, little wonder that William Marshal earl of Pembrokeshire undertook the building of the lighthouse in the early 13th century as a navigational aid to guide his ships into Waterford Harbour. The tower has close affinities to Marshal castles at Ferns, at Kilkenny and at Pembroke in Wales. It appears to have been modelled on freestanding, cylindrical stone keeps known as 'Juliets' which were popular in Wales and France during the early 13th century.

Pattern in Robin Hansen's Favorite Mittens, called "mittens hooked on a dowel" - I bought this hook at the Folk Museum in Oslo.
Red hook Crit,
Fixed gear race in NYC, pretty amazing to watch guys bomb down the straight into the hairpin at the end, brakeless, and in big packs.
Loads of stacks.
This solid brass coat hook comes from an "old federal building", according to the label on the back.
Being in Chicago, this likely means it originally hung somewhere in Henry Ives Cobb's Chicago Federal Building, demolished in 1965. I imagine dozens of them, lining the hallway of the judges' chambers... or in a cloak room off the lobby. Who knows.
I love the worn patina, the little voids and spots where the molten metal didn't quite fill, and the overall size and heft; it juts out 4" from the base, and stands nearly 5.5" tall. Feels like it's around a pound.
I hope to one day reproduce these in brass - maybe also a darkened bronze. It'd make a killer bathrobe hook, and I could even imagine a row of them, lined up on an exposed brick wall in a garage or barn.
It's a simple, utilitarian design that neither Melissa nor I have seen before. That's saying something, as we've looked at a lot of old hardware. At $25, we just couldn't pass up.
Found over the weekend locally on Craigslist.
Early c1100 Norman bucket font of oolitic limestone, designed for total immersion , stands on a more recent base. It has a lead lining, and a recent fixed wooden surround on the upper surface
Round the upper part of the bowl, within a border, is a beaded wavy line (snakes ?) with foliage at intervals on either side and a half lozenge underneath. Round the lower part, within a border, is a series of roundels with circular medallions.
The figures show Adam and Eve (ADAM and EVA inscribed on their chests in mixed Roman and Lombardic capitals) , the tree of knowledge of good and evil, and signs of the Zodiac (Sagittarius (SAGITARIVS) , Aquarius & Aries)
Adam has a spade in his right hand and a rake held up in his left hand. Eve, who has plaited hair, holds an apple in her right hand and a fig leaf in her left.
Sagittarius (SAGITARIVS) the archer portrayed as a centaur, with the body, hind legs and tail of a horse and human torso, is turned away from Aquarius, but the upper, human part is looking back and holds a bow with a short arrow, which he is about to discharge. This combination suggests Sagittarius as the champion of all that is right and good, driving away the evil influence as represented by the flood which would destroy the world, released by Aquarius (the water carrier) who has a hooked stick over his shoulder with 2 water-bags hanging from it, and carries an axe in front of him., The destructive character of the water of the flood is thus contrasted with the regenerative power of the water of baptism.
Aries is typical of the lamb of God which takes away the sins of the world. He is standing on a flat pedestal and below this is a tree with foliage extending on either side from the top of the trunk, suggesting the tree of life. The remaining figure is Serpens, represented as a two headed serpent, with one head biting the other. This is a symbol o f the powers of evil which war against one another and bring about their own destruction. (or possibly the symbol of eternity)
