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)

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.
Constructicon Hook!
Today, 3.14.11 I'll introduce Hook (rest will follow on a daily basis)
This "batch" (to say the least) I went with a special spin on Hook, using a custom cast head thanks to Calloway Custom Designs and Shapeways. The head is on a pivot. Hook will form Devastator's upper chest/torso.
The brewery in the North Oxfordshire village of Hook Norton is one of the finest examples still in existence of a Victorian tower brewery which was completed in the mid-1890's and is still in operation in much the same way today. Built at a time when most towns and even large villages had their own brewery, the family owned company has brewed continuously on the site since the 1850's. Even when real ale became unfashionable in the 1960's and 70's the brewery continued to produce in the traditional way. It is seen here on May 11th 2007.
Captain James Hook. The plaque next to this statue said "The villian of "Peter Pan" his nemesis, he is said to have been Blackbeard's bosun and the only man Long John Silver ever feared. He wears an iron hook in place of his hand, which was cut off and eaten by a crocodile."

Never thought I would need a hook grip (I like my hooks skinny), but I do now that I'm using this small hook with a very repetitive stitch pattern.
This is a modified version of the home made hook grip shown in How to Make Your Own Crochet Hook Grip: www.youtube.com/watch?v=PnyAKzdcbeY
I didn't have any tubing on hand so I used one pencil grip inside another. I cut a lengthwise strip out of the inner grip, rolled it up, pulled it through with rounded jewelry pliers (not easy!), rolled it on a hard surface with the palm of my hand (to get it to wiggle inside better), and trimmed off a little bit that was sticking out the ends. Then I carefully wiggled my hook in.

Tried to position the sun directly in the position of the light in the lighthouse! Not sure if my idea worked though... still I'm quite happy with this shot. What a beautiful day we had while down there yesterday!
Hooks used for crocheting and whatnot. From left to right they are size E, F, G, H, H, and J. Colors are a bit stronger in person.
Inside the changing cubicles in Victoria Baths there's a hook for your coat and any other items you wish to hook on there.
There's even a reflection in the tiling as well.

Van Hook is located just off Hwy 64 between Highlands and Franklin, North Carolina. Our campsite was the very place I camped five years ago, so it was sweet to come back and relive some memories.
In case you were wondering, this is a 30 second exposure with Dan inside the tent with a flashlight. It was supposed to make the tent "glow"; instead, it looks like Zoro trapped in a turquoise bubble.
