—--Biennale from wikipedia —--
The Venice International Film Festival is part of the Venice Biennale. The famous Golden Lion is awarded to the best film screening at the competition.
Biennale (Italian: [bi.enˈnaːle]), Italian for "biennial" or "every other year", is any event that happens every two years. It is most commonly used within the art world to describe large-scale international contemporary art exhibitions. As such the term was popularised by Venice Biennale, which was first held in 1895. Since the 1990s, the terms "biennale" and "biennial" have been interchangeably used in a more generic way - to signify a large-scale international survey show of contemporary art that recurs at regular intervals but not necessarily biannual (such as triennials, Documenta, Skulptur Projekte Münster).[1] The phrase has also been used for other artistic events, such as the "Biennale de Paris", "Kochi-Muziris Biennale", Berlinale (for the Berlin International Film Festival) and Viennale (for Vienna's international film festival).
Characteristics[edit]
According to author Federica Martini, what is at stake in contemporary biennales is the diplomatic/international relations potential as well as urban regeneration plans. Besides being mainly focused on the present (the “here and now” where the cultural event takes place and their effect of "spectacularisation of the everyday"), because of their site-specificity cultural events may refer back to,[who?] produce or frame the history of the site and communities' collective memory.[2]
The Great Exhibition in The Crystal Palace in Hyde Park, London, in 1851, the first attempt to condense the representation of the world within a unitary exhibition space.
A strong and influent symbol of biennales and of large-scale international exhibitions in general is the Crystal Palace, the gigantic and futuristic London architecture that hosted the Great Exhibition in 1851. According to philosopher Peter Sloterdijk,[3][page needed] the Crystal Palace is the first attempt to condense the representation of the world in a unitary exhibition space, where the main exhibit is society itself in an a-historical, spectacular condition. The Crystal Palace main motives were the affirmation of British economic and national leadership and the creation of moments of spectacle. In this respect, 19th century World fairs provided a visual crystallization of colonial culture and were, at the same time, forerunners of contemporary theme parks.
The Venice Biennale as an archetype[edit]
The structure of the Venice Biennale in 2005 with an international exhibition and the national pavilions.
The Venice Biennale, a periodical large-scale cultural event founded in 1895, served as an archetype of the biennales. Meant to become a World Fair focused on contemporary art, the Venice Biennale used as a pretext the wedding anniversary of the Italian king and followed up to several national exhibitions organised after Italy unification in 1861. The Biennale immediately put forth issues of city marketing, cultural tourism and urban regeneration, as it was meant to reposition Venice on the international cultural map after the crisis due to the end of the Grand Tour model and the weakening of the Venetian school of painting. Furthermore, the Gardens where the Biennale takes place were an abandoned city area that needed to be re-functionalised. In cultural terms, the Biennale was meant to provide on a biennial basis a platform for discussing contemporary art practices that were not represented in fine arts museums at the time. The early Biennale model already included some key points that are still constitutive of large-scale international art exhibitions today: a mix of city marketing, internationalism, gentrification issues and destination culture, and the spectacular, large scale of the event.
Biennials after the 1990s[edit]
The situation of biennials has changed in the contemporary context: while at its origin in 1895 Venice was a unique cultural event, but since the 1990s hundreds of biennials have been organized across the globe. Given the ephemeral and irregular nature of some biennials, there is little consensus on the exact number of biennials in existence at any given time.[citation needed] Furthermore, while Venice was a unique agent in the presentation of contemporary art, since the 1960s several museums devoted to contemporary art are exhibiting the contemporary scene on a regular basis. Another point of difference concerns 19th century internationalism in the arts, that was brought into question by post-colonial debates and criticism of the contemporary art “ethnic marketing”, and also challenged the Venetian and World Fair’s national representation system. As a consequence of this, Eurocentric tendency to implode the whole word in an exhibition space, which characterises both the Crystal Palace and the Venice Biennale, is affected by the expansion of the artistic geographical map to scenes traditionally considered as marginal. The birth of the Havana Biennial in 1984 is widely considered an important counterpoint to the Venetian model for its prioritization of artists working in the Global South and curatorial rejection of the national pavilion model.

—---Venice Biennale from wikipedia —
The Venice Biennale (/ˌbiːɛˈnɑːleɪ, -li/; Italian: La Biennale di Venezia) is an international cultural exhibition hosted annually in Venice, Italy by the Biennale Foundation.[2][3][4] The biennale has been organised every year since 1895, which makes it the oldest of its kind. The main exhibition held in Castello, in the halls of the Arsenale and Biennale Gardens, alternates between art and architecture (hence the name biennale; biennial).[5][6][7] The other events hosted by the Foundation—spanning theatre, music, and dance—are held annually in various parts of Venice, whereas the Venice Film Festival takes place at the Lido.[8]

History
1895–1947
On April 19, 1893, the Venetian City Council passed a resolution to set up an biennial exhibition of Italian Art ("Esposizione biennale artistica nazionale") to celebrate the silver anniversary of King Umberto I and Margherita of Savoy.[11]
A year later, the council decreed "to adopt a 'by invitation' system; to reserve a section of the Exhibition for foreign artists too; to admit works by uninvited Italian artists, as selected by a jury."[12]
The first Biennale, "I Esposizione Internazionale d'Arte della Città di Venezia (1st International Art Exhibition of the City of Venice)" (although originally scheduled for April 22, 1894) was opened on April 30, 1895, by the Italian King and Queen, Umberto I and Margherita di Savoia. The first exhibition was seen by 224,000 visitors.
The event became increasingly international in the first decades of the 20th century: from 1907 on, several countries installed national pavilions at the exhibition, with the first being from Belgium. In 1910 the first internationally well-known artists were displayed: a room dedicated to Gustav Klimt, a one-man show for Renoir, a retrospective of Courbet. A work by Picasso "Family of Saltimbanques" was removed from the Spanish salon in the central Palazzo because it was feared that its novelty might shock the public. By 1914 seven pavilions had been established: Belgium (1907), Hungary (1909), Germany (1909), Great Britain (1909), France (1912), and Russia (1914).
During World War I, the 1916 and 1918 events were cancelled.[13] In 1920 the post of mayor of Venice and president of the Biennale was split. The new secretary general, Vittorio Pica brought about the first presence of avant-garde art, notably Impressionists and Post-Impressionists.
1922 saw an exhibition of sculpture by African artists. Between the two World Wars, many important modern artists had their work exhibited there. In 1928 the Istituto Storico d'Arte Contemporanea (Historical Institute of Contemporary Art) opened, which was the first nucleus of archival collections of the Biennale. In 1930 its name was changed into Historical Archive of Contemporary Art.
In 1930, the Biennale was transformed into an Ente Autonomo (Autonomous Board) by Royal Decree with law no. 33 of 13-1-1930. Subsequently, the control of the Biennale passed from the Venice city council to the national Fascist government under Benito Mussolini. This brought on a restructuring, an associated financial boost, as well as a new president, Count Giuseppe Volpi di Misurata. Three entirely new events were established, including the Biennale Musica in 1930, also referred to as International Festival of Contemporary Music; the Venice Film Festival in 1932, which they claim as the first film festival in history,[14] also referred to as Venice International Film Festival; and the Biennale Theatro in 1934, also referred to as International Theatre Festival.
In 1933 the Biennale organized an exhibition of Italian art abroad. From 1938, Grand Prizes were awarded in the art exhibition section.
During World War II, the activities of the Biennale were interrupted: 1942 saw the last edition of the events. The Film Festival restarted in 1946, the Music and Theatre festivals were resumed in 1947, and the Art Exhibition in 1948.[15]
1948–1973[edit]
The Art Biennale was resumed in 1948 with a major exhibition of a recapitulatory nature. The Secretary General, art historian Rodolfo Pallucchini, started with the Impressionists and many protagonists of contemporary art including Chagall, Klee, Braque, Delvaux, Ensor, and Magritte, as well as a retrospective of Picasso's work. Peggy Guggenheim was invited to exhibit her collection, later to be permanently housed at Ca' Venier dei Leoni.
1949 saw the beginning of renewed attention to avant-garde movements in European—and later worldwide—movements in contemporary art. Abstract expressionism was introduced in the 1950s, and the Biennale is credited with importing Pop Art into the canon of art history by awarding the top prize to Robert Rauschenberg in 1964.[16] From 1948 to 1972, Italian architect Carlo Scarpa did a series of remarkable interventions in the Biennale's exhibition spaces.
In 1954 the island San Giorgio Maggiore provided the venue for the first Japanese Noh theatre shows in Europe. 1956 saw the selection of films following an artistic selection and no longer based upon the designation of the participating country. The 1957 Golden Lion went to Satyajit Ray's Aparajito which introduced Indian cinema to the West.
1962 included Arte Informale at the Art Exhibition with Jean Fautrier, Hans Hartung, Emilio Vedova, and Pietro Consagra. The 1964 Art Exhibition introduced continental Europe to Pop Art (The Independent Group had been founded in Britain in 1952). The American Robert Rauschenberg was the first American artist to win the Gran Premio, and the youngest to date.
The student protests of 1968 also marked a crisis for the Biennale. Student protests hindered the opening of the Biennale. A resulting period of institutional changes opened and ending with a new Statute in 1973. In 1969, following the protests, the Grand Prizes were abandoned. These resumed in 1980 for the Mostra del Cinema and in 1986 for the Art Exhibition.[17]
In 1972, for the first time, a theme was adopted by the Biennale, called "Opera o comportamento" ("Work or Behaviour").
Starting from 1973 the Music Festival was no longer held annually. During the year in which the Mostra del Cinema was not held, there was a series of "Giornate del cinema italiano" (Days of Italian Cinema) promoted by sectorial bodies in campo Santa Margherita, in Venice.[18]
1974–1998[edit]
1974 saw the start of the four-year presidency of Carlo Ripa di Meana. The International Art Exhibition was not held (until it was resumed in 1976). Theatre and cinema events were held in October 1974 and 1975 under the title Libertà per il Cile (Freedom for Chile)—a major cultural protest against the dictatorship of Augusto Pinochet.
On 15 November 1977, the so-called Dissident Biennale (in reference to the dissident movement in the USSR) opened. Because of the ensuing controversies within the Italian left wing parties, president Ripa di Meana resigned at the end of the year.[19]
In 1979 the new presidency of Giuseppe Galasso (1979-1982) began. The principle was laid down whereby each of the artistic sectors was to have a permanent director to organise its activity.
In 1980, the Architecture section of the Biennale was set up. The director, Paolo Portoghesi, opened the Corderie dell'Arsenale to the public for the first time. At the Mostra del Cinema, the awards were brought back into being (between 1969 and 1979, the editions were non-competitive). In 1980, Achille Bonito Oliva and Harald Szeemann introduced "Aperto", a section of the exhibition designed to explore emerging art. Italian art historian Giovanni Carandente directed the 1988 and 1990 editions. A three-year gap was left afterwards to make sure that the 1995 edition would coincide with the 100th anniversary of the Biennale.[13]
The 1993 edition was directed by Achille Bonito Oliva. In 1995, Jean Clair was appointed to be the Biennale's first non-Italian director of visual arts[20] while Germano Celant served as director in 1997.
For the Centenary in 1995, the Biennale promoted events in every sector of its activity: the 34th Festival del Teatro, the 46th art exhibition, the 46th Festival di Musica, the 52nd Mostra del Cinema.[21]
1999–present[edit]
In 1999 and 2001, Harald Szeemann directed two editions in a row (48th & 49th) bringing in a larger representation of artists from Asia and Eastern Europe and more young artists than usual and expanded the show into several newly restored spaces of the Arsenale.
In 1999 a new sector was created for live shows: DMT (Dance Music Theatre).
The 50th edition, 2003, directed by Francesco Bonami, had a record number of seven co-curators involved, including Hans Ulrich Obrist, Catherine David, Igor Zabel, Hou Hanru and Massimiliano Gioni.
The 51st edition of the Biennale opened in June 2005, curated, for the first time by two women, Maria de Corral and Rosa Martinez. De Corral organized "The Experience of Art" which included 41 artists, from past masters to younger figures. Rosa Martinez took over the Arsenale with "Always a Little Further." Drawing on "the myth of the romantic traveler" her exhibition involved 49 artists, ranging from the elegant to the profane.
In 2007, Robert Storr became the first director from the United States to curate the Biennale (the 52nd), with a show entitled Think with the Senses – Feel with the Mind. Art in the Present Tense.
Swedish curator Daniel Birnbaum was artistic director of the 2009 edition entitled "Fare Mondi // Making Worlds".
The 2011 edition was curated by Swiss curator Bice Curiger entitled "ILLUMInazioni – ILLUMInations".
The Biennale in 2013 was curated by the Italian Massimiliano Gioni. His title and theme, Il Palazzo Enciclopedico / The Encyclopedic Palace, was adopted from an architectural model by the self-taught Italian-American artist Marino Auriti. Auriti's work, The Encyclopedic Palace of the World was lent by the American Folk Art Museum and exhibited in the first room of the Arsenale for the duration of the biennale. For Gioni, Auriti's work, "meant to house all worldly knowledge, bringing together the greatest discoveries of the human race, from the wheel to the satellite," provided an analogous figure for the "biennale model itself...based on the impossible desire to concentrate the infinite worlds of contemporary art in a single place: a task that now seems as dizzyingly absurd as Auriti's dream."[22]
Curator Okwui Enwezor was responsible for the 2015 edition.[23] He was the first African-born curator of the biennial. As a catalyst for imagining different ways of imagining multiple desires and futures Enwezor commissioned special projects and programs throughout the Biennale in the Giardini. This included a Creative Time Summit, e-flux journal's SUPERCOMMUNITY, Gulf Labor Coalition, The Invisible Borders Trans-African Project and Abounaddara.[24][25]
The 2017 Biennale, titled Viva Arte Viva, was directed by French curator Christine Macel who called it an "exhibition inspired by humanism".[26] German artist Franz Erhard Walter won the Golden Lion for best artist, while Carolee Schneemann was awarded a posthumous Golden Lion for Lifetime Achievement.[27]
The 2019 Biennale, titled May You Live In Interesting Times, was directed by American-born curator Ralph Rugoff.[28]
The 2022 edition was curated by Italian curator Cecilia Alemani entitled "The Milk of Dreams" after a book by British-born Mexican surrealist painter Leonora Carrington.[29]
The Biennale has an attendance today of over 500,000 visitors.[30][31][32]
Role in the art market[edit]
When the Venice Biennale was founded in 1895, one of its main goals was to establish a new market for contemporary art. Between 1942 and 1968 a sales office assisted artists in finding clients and selling their work,[33] a service for which it charged 10% commission. Sales remained an intrinsic part of the biennale until 1968, when a sales ban was enacted. An important practical reason why the focus on non-commodities has failed to decouple Venice from the market is that the biennale itself lacks the funds to produce, ship and install these large-scale works. Therefore, the financial involvement of dealers is widely regarded as indispensable;[16] as they regularly front the funding for production of ambitious projects.[34] Furthermore, every other year the Venice Biennale coincides with nearby Art Basel, the world's prime commercial fair for modern and contemporary art. Numerous galleries with artists on show in Venice usually bring work by the same artists to Basel.[35]
Central Pavilion and Arsenale[edit]
The formal Biennale is based at a park, the Giardini. The Giardini includes a large exhibition hall that houses a themed exhibition curated by the Biennale's director.
Initiated in 1980, the Aperto began as a fringe event for younger artists and artists of a national origin not represented by the permanent national pavilions. This is usually staged in the Arsenale and has become part of the formal biennale programme. In 1995 there was no Aperto so a number of participating countries hired venues to show exhibitions of emerging artists. From 1999, both the international exhibition and the Aperto were held as one exhibition, held both at the Central Pavilion and the Arsenale. Also in 1999, a $1 million renovation transformed the Arsenale area into a cluster of renovated shipyards, sheds and warehouses, more than doubling the Arsenale's exhibition space of previous years.[36]
A special edition of the 54th Biennale was held at Padiglione Italia of Torino Esposizioni – Sala Nervi (December 2011 – February 2012) for the 150th Anniversary of Italian Unification. The event was directed by Vittorio Sgarbi.[37]
National pavilions[edit]
Main article: National pavilions at the Venice Biennale
The Giardini houses 30 permanent national pavilions.[13] Alongside the Central Pavilion, built in 1894 and later restructured and extended several times, the Giardini are occupied by a further 29 pavilions built at different periods by the various countries participating in the Biennale. The first nation to build a pavilion was Belgium in 1907, followed by Germany, Britain and Hungary in 1909.[13] The pavilions are the property of the individual countries and are managed by their ministries of culture.[38]
Countries not owning a pavilion in the Giardini are exhibited in other venues across Venice. The number of countries represented is still growing. In 2005, China was showing for the first time, followed by the African Pavilion and Mexico (2007), the United Arab Emirates (2009), and India (2011).[39]
The assignment of the permanent pavilions was largely dictated by the international politics of the 1930s and the Cold War. There is no single format to how each country manages their pavilion, established and emerging countries represented at the biennial maintain and fund their pavilions in different ways.[38] While pavilions are usually government-funded, private money plays an increasingly large role; in 2015, the pavilions of Iraq, Ukraine and Syria were completely privately funded.[40] The pavilion for Great Britain is always managed by the British Council[41] while the United States assigns the responsibility to a public gallery chosen by the Department of State which, since 1985, has been the Peggy Guggenheim Collection.[42] The countries at the Arsenale that request a temporary exhibition space pay a hire fee per square meter.[38]
In 2011, the countries were Albania, Andorra, Argentina, Australia, Austria, Bangladesh, Belarus, Belgium, Brazil, Bulgaria, Canada, Chile, China, Congo, Costa Rica, Croatia, Cuba, Cyprus, Czechia and Slovakia, Denmark, Egypt, Estonia, Finland, France, Georgia, Germany, Greece, Haiti, Hungary, Iceland, India, Iran, Iraq, Ireland, Israel, Italy, Japan, Korea, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Macedonia, Mexico, Moldova, Montenegro, Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Russia, San Marino, Saudi Arabia, Serbia, Singapore, Slovenia, South Africa, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Syrian Arab Republic, Taiwan, Thailand, Turkey, Ukraine, United Arab Emirates, United Kingdom, United States of America, Uruguay, Venezuela, Wales and Zimbabwe. In addition to this there are two collective pavilions: Central Asia Pavilion and Istituto Italo-Latino Americano. In 2013, eleven new participant countries developed national pavilions for the Biennale: Angola, Bosnia and Herzegowina, the Bahamas, Bahrain, the Ivory Coast, Kosovo, Kuwait, the Maldives, Paraguay, Tuvalu, and the Holy See. In 2015, five new participant countries developed pavilions for the Biennale: Grenada,[43] Republic of Mozambique, Republic of Seychelles, Mauritius and Mongolia. In 2017, three countries participated in the Art Biennale for the first time: Antigua & Barbuda, Kiribati, and Nigeria.[44] In 2019, four countries participated in the Art Biennale for the first time: Ghana, Madagascar, Malaysia, and Pakistan.[45]
As well as the national pavilions there are countless "unofficial pavilions"[46] that spring up every year. In 2009 there were pavilions such as the Gabon Pavilion and a Peckham pavilion. In 2017 The Diaspora Pavilion bought together 19 artists from complex, multinational backgrounds to challenge the prevalence of the nation state at the Biennale.[47]
The Internet Pavilion (Italian: Padiglione Internet) was founded in 2009 as a platform for activists and artists working in new media.[48][49][50] Subsequent editions were held since,[51] 2013,[51] in conjunction with the biennale.[52]

La reflexión: www.santimb.com/2012/02/frio-paralizante.html
CASTELLANO
La salamanquesa común (Tarentola mauritanica) es un pequeño reptil de la familia Gekkonidae ampliamente distribuido por los países de la cuenca del Mediterráneo.
En Portugal recibe el nombre de osga, en Galicia salmantesa, en Canarias prácan, perenquén o perinquén, en Cataluña, Valencia y Baleares dragó o dragonet y en Extremadura santorrostro. Es bastante común en la Península Ibérica, excepto en la Cornisa Cantábrica, con frecuencia conviviendo con los seres humanos en edificios de pueblos y ciudades, donde causa espanto e incluso repugnancia a parte de la población (saurofobia), aunque es totalmente inofensiva.
Ha sido introducida en las islas Baleares en el Mediterráneo, en las islas Canarias y archipiélago de Madeira y en el continente americano en Montevideo (Uruguay), Asunción (Paraguay) y Buenos Aires (Argentina) (donde se denomina lagartija), y California (Estados Unidos).
Las salamanquesas comunes son animales nocturnos, aunque en ocasiones se muestran activas en torno al crepúsculo o incluso durante el día, especialmente en los días soleados del fin del invierno. Sienten preferencia por los lugares soleados próximos a sus escondrijos.
Se alimentan principalmente de insectos en los meses calurosos del año y a menudo se encuentran cazando los insectos nocturnos que son atraídos por luces, lámparas, etc.
Incuban dos huevos casi esféricos dos veces al año, alrededor de abril y junio. Después de cuatro meses nacen las pequeñas salamanquesas con menos de 5 cm de longitud. Crecen muy lentamente y viven hasta 8 años en cautividad. Comen, grillos, polillas, moscas, mosquitas, etc ya que son insectívoras.

ENGLISH
Tarentola mauritanica is a species of gecko (Gekkonidae) native to the Western Mediterranean region of Europe and North Africa and widely introduced to North America and Asia. It is commonly observed on walls in urban environments, mainly in warm coastal areas, though it can spread inland - especially in Spain. A robust species, up to 150 millimetres long, its tubercules are enlarged and give the species a spiny armoured appearance.
The species was first described by Carl Linnaeus in 1758. Its widespread introduction has attracted many common names, including variants on Common or Moorish Wall Gecko and Salamanquesa, Crocodile gecko, European common gecko, and Maurita naca gecko.
Mainly nocturnal or crepuscular. Also active during the day, on sunny days at the end of the winter especially. They like to receive sunlight near their refuge. They hunt insects and in the warmer months of the year it can be found hunting nocturnal insects near light sources, street lamps, etc. They lay 2 almost-spherical eggs twice a year around April and June. After 4 months, little salamanquesas of less than 5 cm in length are born. Moorish geckos are slow to mature, taking 4 to 5 years in captivity.
The introduction of the species may impact on native fauna, by preying on frogs and smaller lizards. The adoption of this species as a pet has led to populations becoming established in Florida and elsewhere.

About Imago Anatopism:
The project tells the tale of Volund, a nordic, elf, a symbol following Joseph Campbell's "Hero with a Thousand Faces." Volund undergoes many persona changes during his travels in which he encounters several others that shape and transform him.
Stage 1: At the start of the tale Volund, a Norsk elf who is probably born on the edge of the world between Midgaard – the home of humans, and Utgaard – the home home of giants, is still a young boy who is taken by his father to a mountian where a tribe of dwarfs are to teach him the craft of blacksmithing.
At this early stage all Volund gets are the basics: Skin, shape, eyes and a pair of shoes.
Stage 2: This is the stage in which Volund is refuses the call to the adventure. He is still a timid boy who does not hear, or misinterprets the call or may even misuse the call since he is not yet mature enough to make his own decisions and only follows the decisions of others. All this leads to the murder of his father which makes Volund realise life's dangers and the magnitude of his task.
Symbolizing this blindness, at stage 2 Volund only gets a mask as an attachment.
Stage 3: Setting out on his adventure, Volund goes back to the mountain in order to learn further secrets of forging and the creation of magic tools from the dwarf. Such supernatural aids are both good and bad and once Volund puts on his magic belt and helmet he realizes that it is the dwarfs that killed his father. This makes them his enemy and he has a narrow escape as he leaves the mountain.
Thus, at stage 3 Volund gets a magic belt and helmet as two new attachments.
Stage 4: The idea of the entering another world is often symbolized by the belly of the whale. Volund is no different in this regard, and he throws himself into the ocean to float away to the unknown.
Thus, at stage 4 Volund gets a harpoon as a new attachment.
Stage 5: It is at this stage that Volund starts discovering his strength and power. He now has the ability to forge magic objects, such as life-like statues and wonderful weapons. It is at this stage that Volund meets a valkyrie (in this instance, a symbol for the concept of "goddess"), whom he first sees as a swan who is taking off her feathers in order to bathe in lake. Volund hides her feathers and makes her his first wife. However she leaves him at the end of 7 years when she finally finds her feathers and flees away.
"She is the mother, sister, mistress, bride," Campbell writes of the goddess. But she is also the death of of everything that dies. Campbell continues: "Woman, in the picture language of mythology, represents the totality of what can be known. The hero is the one who comes to know."
At stage 5 Volund gets a big present that he gives to the goddess as an offering as a new attachment.
Stage 6: Volund gets 9 rings from the valkyrie, which is a symbol of union. However these ring are also things that he can measure his own forging up against.
Stage 7: Volund is now supposed to start his journey back home, with newly gained wisdom. However, he faces yet another obstacle through the king who tries to hinder Volund from leaving by crippling him.
Thus, unsurprisingly, at this stage Volund gets a cane. There are several versions of this with different poses.
Stage 8: Volund gets his revenge upon the king by raping his daughter.
To quote Campbell again: "And always, after the first thrills of getting under way, the adventure develops into a journey of darkness, horror, disgust and phantasmagoric fears."
And so, at this stage Volund gets a caged bird with which he can seduce the king's daughter.
Stage 9: Volund has now made the king's daughter pregnant. However, in order to ensure that his own son inherits the throne, Volund also takes the precaution of killing the king's two sons.
Thus, at this stage the new attachment that Volund gets is a sword.
Stage 10: We are now nearing the end of the story and Volund sits bird-like on a roof, and tells the king what has happend and what the future will be.
Stage 11: While Volund started his journey in the ocean his return home is through the sky. He forges himself a huge pair of wings with which he flies back home.
Stage 12: We have come to the end of the tale and Volund has finally returned home as a wiser, older man who now deserves to put on the shiled and mantle of the hero.
Campbell writes: ”The hero is the champion of things becoming, not of things become, because he is.” And later ”Having died to his personal ego, he arose again established in the Self”.

Erstmals wird die Burg, das castrum twingia, 1078 erwähnt. Kaiser Heinrich IV. belagerte damals auf seinem Rückweg von Canossa vergeblich die Festung, die Graf Hugo von Tübingen hielt, ein Verbündeter des Gegenkönigs Herzog Rudolf.
Sie dürfte die Fläche des heutigen Schlosshofes eingenommen haben. Hier residierten die im 12. Jahrhundert zu Pfalzgrafen ernannten Grafen von Tübingen, bis sie aus Geldmangel Burg und Stadt 1301 an das Kloster Bebenhausen verpfänden und schließlich 1342 an die Grafen von Württemberg verkaufen mussten. Wenige Jahre nach dem Tod des Universitätsgründers Graf Eberhard im Bart 1496 begann sein Nachfolger Herzog Ulrich mit ersten Umbauten. Die eigentliche Umgestaltung zu einem Renaissanceschloß erfolgte jedoch erst in den Jahren 1534-1550 nach Ulrichs Rückkehr aus 15 Jahre währendem Exil. Entscheidende Ergänzung erfuhr die Anlage schließlich unter Herzog Friedrich I. in den Jahren 1604-1607 durch den Bau des unteren Schlosstores und der östlichen Bastionen. Schon 1188 ist die Johanneskapelle auf dem Burgberg erwähnt. Sie ist somit die älteste urkundlich bekannte Kirche Tübingens. Beim Neubau des Schlosses wurde sie in den Südflügel integriert. Seit 1815 untersteht sie der württembergischen Landeskirche. Noch heute üben hier die angehenden Tübinger evangelischen Theologen das Predigen. Besonders beeindruckend ist das holzgetäfelte Tonnengewölbe aus der Mitte des 17. Jahrhunderts. Die Wandmalereien, die Gobelins vortäuschen, wurden im späten 19. Jahrhundert aufgebracht. Die Gemälde sind Werke des frühen 18. Jahrhunderts.
Die Kapelle ist nicht für die Öffentlichkeit zugänglich.
Sie kann jedoch über die evangelische Landeskirche Stuttgart zu Hochzeiten etc. in Anspruch genommen werden.
Bilder vom Innern der Kapelle folgen.

attack this castle of Tübingen, but he failed
here:
1. Henry IV, Holy Roman Emperor
The beginning of the conflict known as the Investiture Controversy can be assigned to Christmas night of 1075: Gregory was kidnapped and imprisoned by Cencio I Frangipane, a Roman noble, while officiating at Santa Maria Maggiore in Rome. Later freed by Roman people, Gregory accused Henry of having been behind the attempt.
In 1075 Gregory excommunicated some members of the Imperial Court, and threatened to do the same with Henry himself.
He stood in the snow outside the gates of the castle of Canossa for three days, from 25 January to 27 January 1077, begging the pope to rescind the sentence (popularly portrayed as without shoes, taking no food or shelter, and wearing a hairshirt - see Walk of Canossa). The Pope lifted the excommunication, imposing a vow to comply with certain conditions, which Henry soon violated.
On his return to Swabia he tried to attack this castle of Tübingen, but he failed here too.
1076 Investiturstreit – der Streit um die Einsetzung der Bischöfe in nicht nur ihre kirchlichen Ämter, sondern auch in die damit verbundenen Ämter der Reichsverwaltung –
Heinrich IV - seine Auseinandersetzung mit Papst Gregor VII. und sein Gang nach Canossa gelten als Höhepunkt des Investiturstreits. - wollte es nach dem Gang nach Canossa einnehmen, vergeblich.
Gregor VII. befürchtete das Anrücken eines kaiserlichen Heeres Heinrich des IV und wollte einer Begegnung mit Heinrich ausweichen, zog sich deshalb auf die gut befestigte Burg Canossa der Markgräfin Mathilde von Tuszien zurück.
--
1076 La pénitence de Canossa
Grégoire VII déclare Henri IV déchu et l'excommunie ; s'étant rebellé contre la souveraineté de l'Église, il ne peut plus être roi. Celui qui refuse ainsi l'obéissance au représentant de Dieu et fréquente d'autres excommuniés est de fait déchu de sa souveraineté. En conséquence, tous ses sujets sont déliés de l'allégeance qu'ils lui ont prêtée.
-
En échange de son pardon, il obtient le droit de venir en Germanie et l'assurance que le différend entre les princes et le roi serait soumis à son arbitrage
Sur son retour à Swabia il a essayé d'attaquer ce château de Tübingen, mais il a échoué ici aussi.

—--Biennale from wikipedia —--
The Venice International Film Festival is part of the Venice Biennale. The famous Golden Lion is awarded to the best film screening at the competition.
Biennale (Italian: [bi.enˈnaːle]), Italian for "biennial" or "every other year", is any event that happens every two years. It is most commonly used within the art world to describe large-scale international contemporary art exhibitions. As such the term was popularised by Venice Biennale, which was first held in 1895. Since the 1990s, the terms "biennale" and "biennial" have been interchangeably used in a more generic way - to signify a large-scale international survey show of contemporary art that recurs at regular intervals but not necessarily biannual (such as triennials, Documenta, Skulptur Projekte Münster).[1] The phrase has also been used for other artistic events, such as the "Biennale de Paris", "Kochi-Muziris Biennale", Berlinale (for the Berlin International Film Festival) and Viennale (for Vienna's international film festival).
Characteristics[edit]
According to author Federica Martini, what is at stake in contemporary biennales is the diplomatic/international relations potential as well as urban regeneration plans. Besides being mainly focused on the present (the “here and now” where the cultural event takes place and their effect of "spectacularisation of the everyday"), because of their site-specificity cultural events may refer back to,[who?] produce or frame the history of the site and communities' collective memory.[2]
The Great Exhibition in The Crystal Palace in Hyde Park, London, in 1851, the first attempt to condense the representation of the world within a unitary exhibition space.
A strong and influent symbol of biennales and of large-scale international exhibitions in general is the Crystal Palace, the gigantic and futuristic London architecture that hosted the Great Exhibition in 1851. According to philosopher Peter Sloterdijk,[3][page needed] the Crystal Palace is the first attempt to condense the representation of the world in a unitary exhibition space, where the main exhibit is society itself in an a-historical, spectacular condition. The Crystal Palace main motives were the affirmation of British economic and national leadership and the creation of moments of spectacle. In this respect, 19th century World fairs provided a visual crystallization of colonial culture and were, at the same time, forerunners of contemporary theme parks.
The Venice Biennale as an archetype[edit]
The structure of the Venice Biennale in 2005 with an international exhibition and the national pavilions.
The Venice Biennale, a periodical large-scale cultural event founded in 1895, served as an archetype of the biennales. Meant to become a World Fair focused on contemporary art, the Venice Biennale used as a pretext the wedding anniversary of the Italian king and followed up to several national exhibitions organised after Italy unification in 1861. The Biennale immediately put forth issues of city marketing, cultural tourism and urban regeneration, as it was meant to reposition Venice on the international cultural map after the crisis due to the end of the Grand Tour model and the weakening of the Venetian school of painting. Furthermore, the Gardens where the Biennale takes place were an abandoned city area that needed to be re-functionalised. In cultural terms, the Biennale was meant to provide on a biennial basis a platform for discussing contemporary art practices that were not represented in fine arts museums at the time. The early Biennale model already included some key points that are still constitutive of large-scale international art exhibitions today: a mix of city marketing, internationalism, gentrification issues and destination culture, and the spectacular, large scale of the event.
Biennials after the 1990s[edit]
The situation of biennials has changed in the contemporary context: while at its origin in 1895 Venice was a unique cultural event, but since the 1990s hundreds of biennials have been organized across the globe. Given the ephemeral and irregular nature of some biennials, there is little consensus on the exact number of biennials in existence at any given time.[citation needed] Furthermore, while Venice was a unique agent in the presentation of contemporary art, since the 1960s several museums devoted to contemporary art are exhibiting the contemporary scene on a regular basis. Another point of difference concerns 19th century internationalism in the arts, that was brought into question by post-colonial debates and criticism of the contemporary art “ethnic marketing”, and also challenged the Venetian and World Fair’s national representation system. As a consequence of this, Eurocentric tendency to implode the whole word in an exhibition space, which characterises both the Crystal Palace and the Venice Biennale, is affected by the expansion of the artistic geographical map to scenes traditionally considered as marginal. The birth of the Havana Biennial in 1984 is widely considered an important counterpoint to the Venetian model for its prioritization of artists working in the Global South and curatorial rejection of the national pavilion model.

—---Venice Biennale from wikipedia —
The Venice Biennale (/ˌbiːɛˈnɑːleɪ, -li/; Italian: La Biennale di Venezia) is an international cultural exhibition hosted annually in Venice, Italy by the Biennale Foundation.[2][3][4] The biennale has been organised every year since 1895, which makes it the oldest of its kind. The main exhibition held in Castello, in the halls of the Arsenale and Biennale Gardens, alternates between art and architecture (hence the name biennale; biennial).[5][6][7] The other events hosted by the Foundation—spanning theatre, music, and dance—are held annually in various parts of Venice, whereas the Venice Film Festival takes place at the Lido.[8]

History
1895–1947
On April 19, 1893, the Venetian City Council passed a resolution to set up an biennial exhibition of Italian Art ("Esposizione biennale artistica nazionale") to celebrate the silver anniversary of King Umberto I and Margherita of Savoy.[11]
A year later, the council decreed "to adopt a 'by invitation' system; to reserve a section of the Exhibition for foreign artists too; to admit works by uninvited Italian artists, as selected by a jury."[12]
The first Biennale, "I Esposizione Internazionale d'Arte della Città di Venezia (1st International Art Exhibition of the City of Venice)" (although originally scheduled for April 22, 1894) was opened on April 30, 1895, by the Italian King and Queen, Umberto I and Margherita di Savoia. The first exhibition was seen by 224,000 visitors.
The event became increasingly international in the first decades of the 20th century: from 1907 on, several countries installed national pavilions at the exhibition, with the first being from Belgium. In 1910 the first internationally well-known artists were displayed: a room dedicated to Gustav Klimt, a one-man show for Renoir, a retrospective of Courbet. A work by Picasso "Family of Saltimbanques" was removed from the Spanish salon in the central Palazzo because it was feared that its novelty might shock the public. By 1914 seven pavilions had been established: Belgium (1907), Hungary (1909), Germany (1909), Great Britain (1909), France (1912), and Russia (1914).
During World War I, the 1916 and 1918 events were cancelled.[13] In 1920 the post of mayor of Venice and president of the Biennale was split. The new secretary general, Vittorio Pica brought about the first presence of avant-garde art, notably Impressionists and Post-Impressionists.
1922 saw an exhibition of sculpture by African artists. Between the two World Wars, many important modern artists had their work exhibited there. In 1928 the Istituto Storico d'Arte Contemporanea (Historical Institute of Contemporary Art) opened, which was the first nucleus of archival collections of the Biennale. In 1930 its name was changed into Historical Archive of Contemporary Art.
In 1930, the Biennale was transformed into an Ente Autonomo (Autonomous Board) by Royal Decree with law no. 33 of 13-1-1930. Subsequently, the control of the Biennale passed from the Venice city council to the national Fascist government under Benito Mussolini. This brought on a restructuring, an associated financial boost, as well as a new president, Count Giuseppe Volpi di Misurata. Three entirely new events were established, including the Biennale Musica in 1930, also referred to as International Festival of Contemporary Music; the Venice Film Festival in 1932, which they claim as the first film festival in history,[14] also referred to as Venice International Film Festival; and the Biennale Theatro in 1934, also referred to as International Theatre Festival.
In 1933 the Biennale organized an exhibition of Italian art abroad. From 1938, Grand Prizes were awarded in the art exhibition section.
During World War II, the activities of the Biennale were interrupted: 1942 saw the last edition of the events. The Film Festival restarted in 1946, the Music and Theatre festivals were resumed in 1947, and the Art Exhibition in 1948.[15]
1948–1973[edit]
The Art Biennale was resumed in 1948 with a major exhibition of a recapitulatory nature. The Secretary General, art historian Rodolfo Pallucchini, started with the Impressionists and many protagonists of contemporary art including Chagall, Klee, Braque, Delvaux, Ensor, and Magritte, as well as a retrospective of Picasso's work. Peggy Guggenheim was invited to exhibit her collection, later to be permanently housed at Ca' Venier dei Leoni.
1949 saw the beginning of renewed attention to avant-garde movements in European—and later worldwide—movements in contemporary art. Abstract expressionism was introduced in the 1950s, and the Biennale is credited with importing Pop Art into the canon of art history by awarding the top prize to Robert Rauschenberg in 1964.[16] From 1948 to 1972, Italian architect Carlo Scarpa did a series of remarkable interventions in the Biennale's exhibition spaces.
In 1954 the island San Giorgio Maggiore provided the venue for the first Japanese Noh theatre shows in Europe. 1956 saw the selection of films following an artistic selection and no longer based upon the designation of the participating country. The 1957 Golden Lion went to Satyajit Ray's Aparajito which introduced Indian cinema to the West.
1962 included Arte Informale at the Art Exhibition with Jean Fautrier, Hans Hartung, Emilio Vedova, and Pietro Consagra. The 1964 Art Exhibition introduced continental Europe to Pop Art (The Independent Group had been founded in Britain in 1952). The American Robert Rauschenberg was the first American artist to win the Gran Premio, and the youngest to date.
The student protests of 1968 also marked a crisis for the Biennale. Student protests hindered the opening of the Biennale. A resulting period of institutional changes opened and ending with a new Statute in 1973. In 1969, following the protests, the Grand Prizes were abandoned. These resumed in 1980 for the Mostra del Cinema and in 1986 for the Art Exhibition.[17]
In 1972, for the first time, a theme was adopted by the Biennale, called "Opera o comportamento" ("Work or Behaviour").
Starting from 1973 the Music Festival was no longer held annually. During the year in which the Mostra del Cinema was not held, there was a series of "Giornate del cinema italiano" (Days of Italian Cinema) promoted by sectorial bodies in campo Santa Margherita, in Venice.[18]
1974–1998[edit]
1974 saw the start of the four-year presidency of Carlo Ripa di Meana. The International Art Exhibition was not held (until it was resumed in 1976). Theatre and cinema events were held in October 1974 and 1975 under the title Libertà per il Cile (Freedom for Chile)—a major cultural protest against the dictatorship of Augusto Pinochet.
On 15 November 1977, the so-called Dissident Biennale (in reference to the dissident movement in the USSR) opened. Because of the ensuing controversies within the Italian left wing parties, president Ripa di Meana resigned at the end of the year.[19]
In 1979 the new presidency of Giuseppe Galasso (1979-1982) began. The principle was laid down whereby each of the artistic sectors was to have a permanent director to organise its activity.
In 1980, the Architecture section of the Biennale was set up. The director, Paolo Portoghesi, opened the Corderie dell'Arsenale to the public for the first time. At the Mostra del Cinema, the awards were brought back into being (between 1969 and 1979, the editions were non-competitive). In 1980, Achille Bonito Oliva and Harald Szeemann introduced "Aperto", a section of the exhibition designed to explore emerging art. Italian art historian Giovanni Carandente directed the 1988 and 1990 editions. A three-year gap was left afterwards to make sure that the 1995 edition would coincide with the 100th anniversary of the Biennale.[13]
The 1993 edition was directed by Achille Bonito Oliva. In 1995, Jean Clair was appointed to be the Biennale's first non-Italian director of visual arts[20] while Germano Celant served as director in 1997.
For the Centenary in 1995, the Biennale promoted events in every sector of its activity: the 34th Festival del Teatro, the 46th art exhibition, the 46th Festival di Musica, the 52nd Mostra del Cinema.[21]
1999–present[edit]
In 1999 and 2001, Harald Szeemann directed two editions in a row (48th & 49th) bringing in a larger representation of artists from Asia and Eastern Europe and more young artists than usual and expanded the show into several newly restored spaces of the Arsenale.
In 1999 a new sector was created for live shows: DMT (Dance Music Theatre).
The 50th edition, 2003, directed by Francesco Bonami, had a record number of seven co-curators involved, including Hans Ulrich Obrist, Catherine David, Igor Zabel, Hou Hanru and Massimiliano Gioni.
The 51st edition of the Biennale opened in June 2005, curated, for the first time by two women, Maria de Corral and Rosa Martinez. De Corral organized "The Experience of Art" which included 41 artists, from past masters to younger figures. Rosa Martinez took over the Arsenale with "Always a Little Further." Drawing on "the myth of the romantic traveler" her exhibition involved 49 artists, ranging from the elegant to the profane.
In 2007, Robert Storr became the first director from the United States to curate the Biennale (the 52nd), with a show entitled Think with the Senses – Feel with the Mind. Art in the Present Tense.
Swedish curator Daniel Birnbaum was artistic director of the 2009 edition entitled "Fare Mondi // Making Worlds".
The 2011 edition was curated by Swiss curator Bice Curiger entitled "ILLUMInazioni – ILLUMInations".
The Biennale in 2013 was curated by the Italian Massimiliano Gioni. His title and theme, Il Palazzo Enciclopedico / The Encyclopedic Palace, was adopted from an architectural model by the self-taught Italian-American artist Marino Auriti. Auriti's work, The Encyclopedic Palace of the World was lent by the American Folk Art Museum and exhibited in the first room of the Arsenale for the duration of the biennale. For Gioni, Auriti's work, "meant to house all worldly knowledge, bringing together the greatest discoveries of the human race, from the wheel to the satellite," provided an analogous figure for the "biennale model itself...based on the impossible desire to concentrate the infinite worlds of contemporary art in a single place: a task that now seems as dizzyingly absurd as Auriti's dream."[22]
Curator Okwui Enwezor was responsible for the 2015 edition.[23] He was the first African-born curator of the biennial. As a catalyst for imagining different ways of imagining multiple desires and futures Enwezor commissioned special projects and programs throughout the Biennale in the Giardini. This included a Creative Time Summit, e-flux journal's SUPERCOMMUNITY, Gulf Labor Coalition, The Invisible Borders Trans-African Project and Abounaddara.[24][25]
The 2017 Biennale, titled Viva Arte Viva, was directed by French curator Christine Macel who called it an "exhibition inspired by humanism".[26] German artist Franz Erhard Walter won the Golden Lion for best artist, while Carolee Schneemann was awarded a posthumous Golden Lion for Lifetime Achievement.[27]
The 2019 Biennale, titled May You Live In Interesting Times, was directed by American-born curator Ralph Rugoff.[28]
The 2022 edition was curated by Italian curator Cecilia Alemani entitled "The Milk of Dreams" after a book by British-born Mexican surrealist painter Leonora Carrington.[29]
The Biennale has an attendance today of over 500,000 visitors.[30][31][32]
Role in the art market[edit]
When the Venice Biennale was founded in 1895, one of its main goals was to establish a new market for contemporary art. Between 1942 and 1968 a sales office assisted artists in finding clients and selling their work,[33] a service for which it charged 10% commission. Sales remained an intrinsic part of the biennale until 1968, when a sales ban was enacted. An important practical reason why the focus on non-commodities has failed to decouple Venice from the market is that the biennale itself lacks the funds to produce, ship and install these large-scale works. Therefore, the financial involvement of dealers is widely regarded as indispensable;[16] as they regularly front the funding for production of ambitious projects.[34] Furthermore, every other year the Venice Biennale coincides with nearby Art Basel, the world's prime commercial fair for modern and contemporary art. Numerous galleries with artists on show in Venice usually bring work by the same artists to Basel.[35]
Central Pavilion and Arsenale[edit]
The formal Biennale is based at a park, the Giardini. The Giardini includes a large exhibition hall that houses a themed exhibition curated by the Biennale's director.
Initiated in 1980, the Aperto began as a fringe event for younger artists and artists of a national origin not represented by the permanent national pavilions. This is usually staged in the Arsenale and has become part of the formal biennale programme. In 1995 there was no Aperto so a number of participating countries hired venues to show exhibitions of emerging artists. From 1999, both the international exhibition and the Aperto were held as one exhibition, held both at the Central Pavilion and the Arsenale. Also in 1999, a $1 million renovation transformed the Arsenale area into a cluster of renovated shipyards, sheds and warehouses, more than doubling the Arsenale's exhibition space of previous years.[36]
A special edition of the 54th Biennale was held at Padiglione Italia of Torino Esposizioni – Sala Nervi (December 2011 – February 2012) for the 150th Anniversary of Italian Unification. The event was directed by Vittorio Sgarbi
Star Trek: The Motion Picture (Paramount, 1979).

Starring William Shatner, Leonard Nimoy, DeForest Kelley, James Doohan, George Takei, Majel Barrett, Walter Koenig, Nichelle Nichols, Persis Khambatta, Stephen Collins, Grace Lee Whitney, Mark Lenard. Directed by Robert Wise.
In Klingon space, three Klingon battle cruisers encounter a huge cloud-like anomaly. On the bridge of one of the ships, the captain (Mark Lenard) orders his crew to fire torpedoes at it, but they have no effect. The ships take evasive action.
Meanwhile, in Federation space, a monitoring station, Epsilon 9, picks up a distress signal from one of the Klingon ships. As the three ships are attempting to escape the cloud, energy beams shoot out and engulf each ship one by one, and they vanish. On Epsilon 9, the crew tracks the course of the cloud and discovers that it is headed for Earth.
On Vulcan, Spock (Leonard Nimoy) has been undergoing the kohlinahr ritual, in which he has been learning how to purge all of his emotions, and is nearly finished with his training. A female Vulcan Master (Edna Glover), surrounded by two men, is about to give him an ornate necklace as a symbol of pure logic, when Spock holds out his hand to stop her. Confused, she mind-melds with him and senses a consciousness calling to him from space that is affecting his human side. She drops the necklace. "You have not yet achieved kohlinahr. You must look elsewhere for your answer," she says as they leave Spock. "You will not find it here."
In San Francisco, Admiral James T. Kirk (William Shatner) arrives at Starfleet Headquarters in a shuttlecraft. He sees Commander Sonak (Jon Rashad Kamal), a Vulcan science officer who is joining the Enterprise crew and recommended for the position by Kirk himself. Kirk is bothered as to why Sonak is not on board yet. Sonak explains that Captain Willard Decker (Stephen Collins), the new captain of the Enterprise, wanted him to complete his science briefing at Headquarters before they left on their mission. The Enterprise has been undergoing a complete "refitting" for the past 18 months and is now under final preparations to leave, which would take at least 20 hours, but Kirk informs him that they only have 12. He tells Sonak to report to him on the Enterprise in one hour; he has a short meeting with Admiral Nogura and is intent on being on the ship.
Kirk transports to an office complex orbiting Earth and meets Montgomery Scott (James Doohan), the Enterprise's chief engineer. Scotty expresses his concern about the tight departure time. The cloud is less than three days away from Earth, and the Enterprise has been ordered to intercept it because they are the only ship in range. Scotty says that the refit can't be finished in 12 hours, and tries to convince him that the ship needs more work done as well as a shakedown cruise. Kirk insists that they are leaving, ready or not. They board a travel pod and begin the journey over to the drydock in orbit that houses the Enterprise.
Scotty tells Kirk that the crew hasn't had enough transition time with all the new equipment and that the engines haven't even been tested at warp power, not to mention that they have an untried captain. Kirk tells Scotty that two and a half years as Chief of Starfleet Operations may have made him a little stale, but that he wouldn't exactly consider himself untried. Kirk then tells a surprised Scotty that Starfleet gave him back his command of the Enterprise. Scotty doubts it, saying that he doesn't think it was that easy with Admiral Nogura, who gave Kirk his orders. They arrive at the Enterprise, and Scotty indulges Kirk with a brief tour of the new exterior of the ship.
Upon docking with the ship, Scotty is summoned to Engineering. Kirk goes up to the bridge, and is informed by Lt. Uhura (Nichelle Nichols) that Starfleet has just transferred command from Captain Decker over to him. Kirk finds Decker in engineering, whom is visibly upset when Kirk breaks the news that he is assuming command, but recognizes it is because Kirk has more experience. Decker will remain on the ship as 2nd officer. As Decker storms off, an alarm sounds. Someone is trying to beam over to the ship, but the transporter is malfunctioning. Kirk and Scotty race to the transporter room. Transporter operator Janice Rand (Grace Lee Whitney) is frantically trying to tell Starfleet to abort the transport, but it is too late. Commander Sonak and an unknown female officer are beaming in, but their bodies aren't re-forming properly in the beam. The female officer screams, and then their bodies disappear. Starfleet signals to them that they have died. Kirk tells Starfleet to express his sympathies to their families.
In the corridor, Kirk sees Decker and tells him they will have to replace Commander Sonak and wants another Vulcan. Decker tells him that no one is available that is familiar with the ship's new design. Kirk tells Decker he will have to double his duties as science officer as well.
In the recreation room, as Kirk briefs the assembled crew on the mission, they receive a transmission from Epsilon 9. Commander Branch (David Gautreaux) tells them they have analyzed the mysterious cloud. It generates an immense amount of energy and measures 2 A.U.s (300 million km) in diameter. There is also a vessel of some kind in the center. They've tried to communicate with it and have performed scans, but the cloud reflects them back. It seems to think of the scans as hostile and attacks them. Like the Klingon ships earlier, Epsilon 9 disappears.
Later on the bridge, Uhura informs Kirk that the transporter is working now. Lt. Ilia, (Persis Khambatta), a bald being from the planet Delta IV, arrives. Decker is happy to see her, as they developed a romantic relationship when he was assigned to her planet several years earlier. Ilia is curious about Decker's reduction in rank and Kirk interrupts and tells her about Decker being the executive and science officer. Decker tells her, with slight sarcasm, that Kirk has the utmost confidence in him. Ilia tells Kirk that her oath of celibacy is on record and asks permission to assume her duties. Uhura tells Kirk that one of the last few crew members to arrive is refusing to beam up. Kirk goes to the transporter room to ensure that "he" beams up.
Kirk tells Starfleet to beam the officer aboard. Dr. Leonard "Bones" McCoy (DeForest Kelley) materializes on the platform. McCoy is angry that his Starfleet commission was reactivated and that it was Kirk's idea for him to be brought along on the mission. His attitude changes, however, when Kirk says he desperately needs him. McCoy leaves to check out the new sickbay.
The crew finishes its repairs and the Enterprise leaves drydock and into the solar system. Dr. McCoy comes up to the bridge and complains that the new sickbay is nothing but a computer center. Kirk is anxious to intercept the cloud intruder, and orders Hikaru Sulu (George Takei) to go to warp speed. Suddenly, the ship enters a wormhole, which was created by an engine imbalance, and is about to collide with an asteroid that has been pulled inside. Kirk orders the phasers to be fired on it, but Decker tells Pavel Chekov (Walter Koenig) to fire photon torpedoes instead. The asteroid and the wormhole are destroyed. Annoyed, Kirk wants to meet with Decker in his quarters. Dr. McCoy decides to go along.
Kirk demands an explanation from Decker. Decker pointed out that the redesigned Enterprise channeled the phasers through the main engines and because they were imbalanced, the phasers were cut off. Kirk acknowledged that he had saved the ship; however, he accuses Decker of competing with him. Decker tells Kirk that, because of his unfamiliarity with the ship's new design, the mission is in jeopardy. Decker tells Kirk that he will gladly help Kirk understand the new design. Kirk then dismisses him from the room. In the corridor, Decker runs into Ilia. Ilia asked if the confrontation was difficult, and he tells her that it was about as difficult as seeing her again, and apologizes. She asked if he was sorry for leaving Delta IV, or for not saying goodbye. He said that if he had seen her again, would she be able to say goodbye? She says "no," and walked around him and entered her quarters nearby.
Back in Kirk's quarters, McCoy accuses Kirk of being the one who was competing, and the fact that it was Kirk who used the emergency to pressure Starfleet into letting him get command of the Enterprise. McCoy thinks that Kirk is obsessed with keeping his command. On Kirk's console viewscreen, Uhura informs Kirk that a shuttlecraft is approaching and that the occupant wishes to dock. Chekov also pipes in and replies that it appears to be a courier vessel. Kirk tells Chekov to handle the situation.
The shuttle approaches the Enterprise from behind, and the top portion of it detaches and docks at an airlock behind the bridge. Chekov is waiting by the airlock doors and is surprised to see Spock come aboard. Moments later, Spock arrives on the bridge, and everyone is shocked and pleased to see him, yet Spock ignores them. He moves over to the science station and tells Kirk that he is aware of the crisis and knows about the ship's engine design difficulties. He offers to step in as the science officer. McCoy and Dr. Christine Chapel (Majel Barret Roddenberry) come to the bridge to greet Spock, but Spock just stares alarmingly at their emotional outburst. Spock leaves to discuss fuel equations with Scotty in engineering.
With Spock's assistance, the engines are now rebalanced for full warp capacity. The ship successfully goes to warp to intercept the cloud. In the officers lounge, Spock meets with Kirk and McCoy. They discuss Spock's kohlinahr training on Vulcan, and how Spock broke off from his training to join them. Spock describes how he sensed the consciousness of the intruder, from a source more powerful that he has ever encountered, with perfect, logical thought patterns. He believes that it holds the answers he seeks. Uhura tells Kirk over the intercom that they have visual contact with the intruder.
The cloud scans the ship, but Kirk orders no return scans. Spock determines that the scans are coming from the center of the cloud. Uhura tries sending "linguacode" messages, but there is no response. Decker suggests raising the shields for protection, but Kirk determines that that might be considered hostile to the cloud. Spock analyzes the clouds composition, and discovers it has a 12-power energy field, the equivalent of power generated by thousands of starships.
Sitting at the science station, Spock awakens from a brief trance. He reveals to Kirk that the alien was communicating with him. The alien is puzzled; it contacted the Enterprise--why has the Enterprise not replied? A red alert sounds, and an energy beam from within the cloud touches the ship, and begins to overload the ship's systems. Bolts of lightning surround the warp core and nearly injure some engineering officers, and Chekov is also hurt--his hand is burned while sitting at the weapons station on the bridge. The energy beam then disappears. A medical team is summoned to the bridge, and Ilia is able to use her telepathic powers to soothe Chekov's pain.
Spock confirms to Kirk that the alien has been attempting to communicate. It communicates at a frequency of more than one million megahertz, and at such a high rate of speed, the message only lasts a millisecond. Spock programs to computer to send linguacode messages at that frequency. Another energy beam is sent out, but Spock transmits a message just in time, and the beam disappears. The ship continues on course through the cloud. They pass through many expansive and colorful cloud layers and upon clearing these, a giant vessel is revealed. It is roughly cylindrical in shape, with large spikes jutting out from the surface at equidistant angles between each other, forming a hexagon-like shape.
Kirk tells Uhura to transmit an image of the alien to Starfleet, but she explains that any transmission sent out of the cloud is being reflected back to them. Kirk orders Sulu to fly above and along the top of the vessel. The Enterprise is so small compared to the size of the alien vessel that it appears only as a little white dot next to it. The ship travels past many oddly-shaped structures, including a sunken area where the energy beams originate.
An alarm sounds, and yet another energy bolt approaches the ship. It appears on the bridge as a column of bright light that emits a very loud noise. The crew struggles to shield their eyes from its brilliant glow. Chekov asks Spock if it is one of the alien's crew, and Spock replies that it is a probe sent from the vessel. The probe slowly moves around the room and stops in front of the science station. Bolts of lightning shoot out from it and surround the console--it is trying to access the ship's computer. Spock manages to smash the controls to prevent further access, and the probe gives him an electric shock that sends him rolling onto the floor. The probe approaches the helm/navigation console and it scans Lt. Ilia. Suddenly, she vanishes, along with the probe.
Ahead of the ship looms another giant section of the vessel. A tractor beam is drawing the Enterprise toward an opening aperture. Decker calls for Chief DiFalco (Marcy Lafferty) to come up to the bridge as Ilia's replacement. The ship travels deep into the next chamber. Decker wonders why they were brought inside--they could have been easily destroyed outside. Spock deduces that the alien is curious about them. Uhura's monitor shows that the aperture is closing; they are trapped. The ship is released from the tractor beam and suddenly, an intruder alert goes off. Someone has come aboard the ship and is in the crew quarters section.
Kirk and Spock arrive inside a crewman's quarters to discover that the intruder is inside the sonic shower. It is revealed to be Ilia, although it isn't really her--there is a small red device attached to her neck. In a mechanized voice, she replies "You are the Kirk unit--you will listen to me." She explains that she has been programmed by an entity called "V'Ger" to observe and record the normal functions of the carbon-based units (humans) "infesting" the Enterprise. Kirk opens the shower door and "Ilia" steps out, wearing a small white garment that just materialized around her. Dr. McCoy and a security officer enter the room, and Kirk tells McCoy to scan her with a tricorder.
Kirk asks her who V'Ger is. She replies "V'Ger is that which programmed me." McCoy tells Kirk that Ilia is a mechanism and Spock confirms she is a probe that assumed Ilia's physical form. Kirk asks where the real Ilia is, and the probe states that "that unit" no longer functions. Kirk also asks why V'Ger is traveling to Earth, and the probe answers that it wishes to find the Creator, join with him, and become one with it. Spock suggests that McCoy perform a complete examination of the probe.
In sickbay, the Ilia probe lays on a diagnostic table, its sensors slowly taking readings. All normal body functions, down to the microscopic level, are exactly duplicated by the probe. Decker arrives and is stunned to see her there. She looks up at him and addresses him as "Decker", rather than "Decker unit," which intrigues Spock. Spock talks with Kirk and Decker in an adjoining room, and Spock locks the door. Spock theorizes that the real Ilia's memories and feelings have been duplicated by the probe as well as her body. Decker is angry that the probe killed Ilia, but Kirk convinces him that their only contact with the vessel is through the probe, and they need to use that advantage to find out more about the alien. Suddenly, the probe bursts through the door, and demands that Kirk assist her with her observations. He tells her that Decker will do it with more efficiency.
Decker and Ilia are seen walking around in the recreation room. He shows her pictures of previous ships that were named Enterprise. Decker has been trying to see if Ilia's memories or emotions can resurface, but to no avail. Kirk and McCoy are observing them covertly on a monitor from his quarters. Decker shows her a game that the crew enjoys playing. She is not interested and states that recreation and enjoyment has no meaning to her programming. At another game, which Ilia enjoyed and nearly always won, they both press one of their hands down onto a table to play it. The table lights up, indicating she won the game, and she gazes into Deckers eyes. This moment of emotion ends suddenly, and she returns to normal. "This device serves no purpose."
"Why does the Enterprise require the presence of carbon units?" she asks. Decker tells her the ship couldn't function without them. She tells him that more information is needed before the crew can be patterned for data storage. Horrified, he asks her what this means. "When my examination is complete, all carbon units will be reduced to data patterns." He tells her that within her are the memory patterns of a certain carbon unit. He convinces her to let him help her revive those patterns so that she can understand their functions better. She allows him to proceed.
Spock slowly enters an airlock room. He sees an officer standing at a console, his back to Spock. Spock quietly approaches him, and gives him the Vulcan nerve pinch to render him unconscious.
Decker, the probe, Dr. McCoy, and Dr. Chapel are in Ilia's quarters. Dr. Chapel gives the probe a decorative headband that Ilia used to wear. Chapel puts it over "Ilia's" head and turns her toward a mirror. Decker asks her if she remembers wearing it on Delta IV. The probe shows another moment of emotion, saying Dr. Chapel's name, and putting her hand on Decker's face, calling him Will. Behind them, McCoy reminds Decker that she is a mechanism. Decker asks "Ilia" to help them make contact with V'Ger. She says that she can't, and Decker asks her who the Creator is. She says V'Ger does not know. The probe becomes emotionless again and removes the headband.
Spock is now outside the ship in a space suit with an attached thruster pack. He begins recording a log entry for Kirk detailing his attempt to contact the alien. He activates a panel on the suit and calculates thruster ignition and acceleration to coincide with the opening of an aperture ahead of him. He hopes to get a better view of the spacecraft interior.
Kirk comes up to the bridge and Uhura tells him that Starfleet signals are growing stronger, indicating they are very close to Earth. Starfleet is monitoring the intruder and notifies Uhura that it is slowing down in its approach. Sulu confirms this and says that lunar beacons show the intruder is entering into orbit. Chekov tells Kirk that Airlock 4 has been opened and a thruster suit is missing. Kirk figures out that Spock has done it, and orders Chekov to get Spock back on the ship. He changes his mind, and instead tells him to determine his position.
Spock touches a button on his thruster panel and his thruster engine ignites. He is propelled forward rapidly, and enters the next chamber of the vessel just before the aperture closes behind him. The thruster engine shuts down, and the momentum carries Spock ahead further. He disconnects the thruster pack from his suit and it falls away from him.
Continuing his log entry, Spock sees an image of what he believes to be V'Gers home planet. He passes through a tunnel filled with crackling plasma energy, possibly a power source for a gigantic imaging system. Next, he sees several more images of planets, moons, stars, and galaxies stored and recorded. Spock theorizes that this may be a visual representation of V'Gers entire journey. "But who or what are we dealing with?" he ponders.
He sees the Epsilon 9 station, and notes to Kirk that he is convinced that all of what he is seeing is V'Ger; and that they are inside a living machine. Then he sees a giant image of Lt. Ilia with the sensor on her neck. Spock decides it must have some special meaning, so he attempts to mind-meld with it. He is quickly overwhelmed by the multitude of images flooding his mind, and is thrown backward.
Kirk is now in a space suit and has exited the ship. The aperture in front of the Enterprise opens, and Spock's unconscious body floats toward him. Later, Dr. Chapel and Dr. McCoy are examining Spock in sickbay. Dr. McCoy performs scans and determines that Spock endured massive neurological trauma from the mind-meld. Spock tells Kirk he should have known and Kirk asks if he was right about V'Ger. Spock calls it a conscious, living entity. Kirk explains that V'Ger considers the Enterprise a living machine and it's why "Ilia" refers to the ship as an entity and the crew as an infestation.
Spock describes V'Ger's homeworld as a planet populated by living machines with unbelievable technology. But with all that logic and knowledge, V'Ger is barren, with no mystery or meaning. He momentarily lapses into sleep but Kirk rouses him awake to ask what Spock should have known. Spock grasps Kirk's hand and tells him "This simple feeling is beyond V'Ger's comprehension. No meaning, no hope. And Jim, no answers. It's asking questions. 'Is this all that I am? Is there nothing more?'"
Uhura chimes in and tells Kirk that they are getting a faint signal from Starfleet. The intruder has been on their monitors for a while and the cloud is rapidly dissipating as it approaches. Sulu also comments that the intruder has slowed to sub-warp speed and is three minutes from Earth orbit. Kirk acknowledges and he, McCoy and Spock go up to the bridge.
Starfleet sends the Enterprise a tactical report on the intruders position. Uhura tells Kirk that V'Ger is transmitting a signal. Decker and "Ilia" come up to the bridge, and she says that V'Ger is signaling the Creator. Spock determines that the transmission is a radio signal. Decker tells Kirk that V'Ger expects an answer, but Kirk doesn't know the question. Then "Ilia" says that the Creator has not responded. An energy bolt is released from V'Ger and positions itself above Earth. Chekov reports that all planetary defense systems have just gone inoperative. Several more bolts are released, and they all split apart to form smaller ones and they assume equidistant positions around the planet.
McCoy notices that the bolts are the same ones that hit the ship earlier, and Spock says that these are hundreds of times more powerful, and from those positions, they can destroy all life on Earth. "Why?" Kirk asks "Ilia." She says that the carbon unit infestation will be removed from the Creator's planet as they are interfering with the Creator's ability to respond and accuses the crew of infesting the Enterprise and interfering in the same manner. Kirk tells "Ilia" that carbon units are a natural function of the Creator's planet and they are living things, not infestations. However "Ilia" says they are not true life forms like the Creator. McCoy realizes V'Ger must think its creator is a machine.
Spock compares V'Ger to a child, and suggests they treat it like one. McCoy retorts that this child is about to wipe out every living thing on Earth. To get "Ilia's" attention, Kirk says that the carbon units know why the Creator hasn't responded. The Ilia probe demands that the Creator "disclose the information." Kirk won't do it until V'Ger withdraws all the orbiting devices. In response to this, V'Ger cuts off the ship's communications with Starfleet. She tells him again to disclose the information. He refuses, and a plasma energy attack shakes the ship. McCoy tells Spock that the child is having a "tantrum."
Kirk tells the probe that if V'Ger destroys the Enterprise, then the information it needs will also be destroyed. Ilia says that it is illogical to withhold the required information, and asks him why he won't disclose it. Kirk explains it is because V'Ger is going to destroy all life on Earth. "Ilia" says that they have oppressed the Creator, and Kirk makes it clear he will not disclose anything. V'Ger needs the information, says "Ilia." Kirk says that V'Ger will have to withdraw all the orbiting devices. "Ilia" says that V'Ger will comply, if the carbon units give the information.
Spock tells Kirk that V'Ger must have a central brain complex. Kirk theorizes that the orbiting devices are controlled from there. Kirk tells "Ilia" that the information cant be disclosed to V'Ger's probe, but only to V'Ger itself. "Ilia" stares at the viewscreen, and, in response, the aperture opens and drags the ship forward with a tractor beam into the next chamber. Chekov tells Kirk that the energy bolts will reach their final positions and activate in 27 minutes. Kirk calls to Scotty on the intercom and tells him to stand by to execute Starfleet Order 2005; the self-destruct command. A female crewmember asks Scotty why Kirk ordered self-destruct, and Scotty tells her that Kirk hopes that when they explode, so will the intruder.
The countdown is now down to 18 minutes. DiFalco reports that they have traveled 17 kilometers inside the vessel. Kirk goes over to Spock's station, and sees that Spock has been crying. "Not for us," Kirk realizes. Spock tells him he is crying for V'Ger, and that he weeps for V'Ger as he would for a brother. As he was when he came aboard the Enterprise, so is V'Ger now--empty, incomplete, and searching. Logic and knowledge are not enough. McCoy realizes Spock has found what he needed, but that V'Ger hasn't. Decker wonders what V'Ger would need to fulfill itself.
Spock comments that each one of us, at some point in our lives asks, "Why am I here?" "What was I meant to be?" V'Ger hopes to touch its Creator and find those answers. DiFalco directs Kirk's attention to the viewscreen. Ahead of them is a structure with a bright light. Sulu reports that forward motion has stopped. Chekov replies that an oxygen/gravity envelope has formed outside of the ship. "Ilia" points to the structure on the screen and identifies it as V'Ger. Uhura has located the source of the radio signal and it is straight ahead. A passageway forms outside the ship as Kirk Spock, McCoy, Decker, and "Ilia" enter a turbolift.
The landing party exits an airlock on the top of the saucer section and walks up the passageway. At the end of the path is a concave structure, and in the center of it is an old NASA probe from three centuries earlier. Kirk tries to rub away the smudges on the nameplate and makes out the letters V G E R. He continues to rub, and discovers that the craft is actually Voyager 6. Kirk recalls the history of the Voyager program--it was designed to collect data and transmit it back to Earth. Decker tells Kirk that Voyager 6 disappeared through a black hole.
Kirk says that it must have emerged on the far side of the galaxy and got caught in the machine planet's gravity. Spock theorizes that the planet's inhabitants found the probe to be one of their own kind--primitive, yet kindred. They discovered the probe's 20th century programming, which was to collect data and return that information to its creator. The machines interpreted that instruction literally, and constructed the entire vessel so that Voyager could fulfill its programming. Kirk continues by saying that on its journey back, it amassed so much knowledge that it gained its own consciousness.
"Ilia" tells Kirk that V'Ger awaits the information. Kirk calls Uhura on his communicator and tells her to find information on the probe in the ship's computer, specifically the NASA code signal, which will allow the probe to transmit its data. Decker realizes that that is what the probe was signaling--it's ready to transmit everything. Kirk then says that there is no one on Earth who recognizes the old-style signal--the Creator does not answer.
Kirk calls out to V'Ger and says that they are the Creator. "Ilia" says that is not logical--carbon units are not true life forms. Kirk says they will prove it by allowing V'Ger to complete its programming. Uhura calls Kirk on his communicator and tells him she has retrieved the code. Kirk tells her to set the Enterprise transmitter to the code frequency and to transmit the signal. Decker reads off the numerical code on his tricorder, and is about to read the final sequence, but Voyager's circuitry burns out, an effort by V'Ger itself to prevent the last part of the code from being transmitted.
"Ilia" says that the Creator must join with V'Ger, and turns toward Decker. McCoy warns Kirk that they only have 10 minutes left. Decker figures out that V'Ger wanted to bring the Creator here and transmit the code in person. Spock tells Kirk that V'Ger's knowledge has reached the limits of the universe and it must evolve. Kirk says that V'Ger needs a human quality in order to evolve. Decker thinks that V'Ger joining with the Creator will accomplish that. He then goes over to the damaged circuitry and fixes the wires so he can manually enter the rest of the code through the ground test computer. Kirk tries to stop him, but "Ilia" tosses him aside. Decker tells Kirk that he wants this as much as Kirk wanted the Enterprise.
Suddenly, a bright light forms around Decker's body. "Ilia" moves over to him, and the light encompasses them both as they merge together. Their bodies disappear, and the light expands and begins to consume the area. Kirk, Spock, and McCoy retreat back to the Enterprise. V'Ger explodes, leaving the Enterprise above Earth, unharmed. On the bridge, Kirk wonders if they just saw the beginning of a new life form, and Spock says yes and that it is possibly the next step in their evolution. McCoy says that its been a while since he "delivered" a baby, and hopes that they got this one off to a good start.
Uhura tells Kirk that Starfleet is requesting the ship's damage and injury reports and vessel status. Kirk reports that there were only two casualties: Lt. Ilia and Captain Decker. He quickly corrects his statement and changes their status to "missing." Vessel status: fully operational. Scotty comes on the bridge and agrees with Kirk that it's time to give the Enterprise a proper shakedown. When Scotty offers to have Spock back on Vulcan in four days, Spock says that's unnecessary, as his task on Vulcan is completed.
Kirk tells Sulu to proceed ahead at warp factor one. When DiFalco asks for a heading, Kirk simply says "Out there, thataway." With that, the Enterprise flies overhead and engages warp drive.

Plot Contains Spoilers:
In Klingon space, three Klingon battle cruisers encounter a huge cloud-like anomaly. On the bridge of one of the ships, the captain (Mark Lenard) orders his crew to fire torpedoes at it, but they have no effect. The ships take evasive action.
Meanwhile, in Federation space, a monitoring station, Epsilon 9, picks up a distress signal from one of the Klingon ships. As the three ships are attempting to escape the cloud, energy beams shoot out and engulf each ship one by one, and they vanish. On Epsilon 9, the crew tracks the course of the cloud and discovers that it is headed for Earth.
On Vulcan, Spock (Leonard Nimoy) has been undergoing the kohlinahr ritual, in which he has been learning how to purge all of his emotions, and is nearly finished with his training. A female Vulcan Master (Edna Glover), surrounded by two men, is about to give him an ornate necklace as a symbol of pure logic, when Spock holds out his hand to stop her. Confused, she mind-melds with him and senses a consciousness calling to him from space that is affecting his human side. She drops the necklace. "You have not yet achieved kohlinahr. You must look elsewhere for your answer," she says as they leave Spock. "You will not find it here."
In San Francisco, Admiral James T. Kirk (William Shatner) arrives at Starfleet Headquarters in a shuttlecraft. He sees Commander Sonak (Jon Rashad Kamal), a Vulcan science officer who is joining the Enterprise crew and recommended for the position by Kirk himself. Kirk is bothered as to why Sonak is not on board yet. Sonak explains that Captain Willard Decker (Stephen Collins), the new captain of the Enterprise, wanted him to complete his science briefing at Headquarters before they left on their mission. The Enterprise has been undergoing a complete "refitting" for the past 18 months and is now under final preparations to leave, which would take at least 20 hours, but Kirk informs him that they only have 12. He tells Sonak to report to him on the Enterprise in one hour; he has a short meeting with Admiral Nogura and is intent on being on the ship.
Kirk transports to an office complex orbiting Earth and meets Montgomery Scott (James Doohan), the Enterprise's chief engineer. Scotty expresses his concern about the tight departure time. The cloud is less than three days away from Earth, and the Enterprise has been ordered to intercept it because they are the only ship in range. Scotty says that the refit can't be finished in 12 hours, and tries to convince him that the ship needs more work done as well as a shakedown cruise. Kirk insists that they are leaving, ready or not. They board a travel pod and begin the journey over to the drydock in orbit that houses the Enterprise.
Scotty tells Kirk that the crew hasn't had enough transition time with all the new equipment and that the engines haven't even been tested at warp power, not to mention that they have an untried captain. Kirk tells Scotty that two and a half years as Chief of Starfleet Operations may have made him a little stale, but that he wouldn't exactly consider himself untried. Kirk then tells a surprised Scotty that Starfleet gave him back his command of the Enterprise. Scotty doubts it, saying that he doesn't think it was that easy with Admiral Nogura, who gave Kirk his orders. They arrive at the Enterprise, and Scotty indulges Kirk with a brief tour of the new exterior of the ship.
Upon docking with the ship, Scotty is summoned to Engineering. Kirk goes up to the bridge, and is informed by Lt. Uhura (Nichelle Nichols) that Starfleet has just transferred command from Captain Decker over to him. Kirk finds Decker in engineering, whom is visibly upset when Kirk breaks the news that he is assuming command, but recognizes it is because Kirk has more experience. Decker will remain on the ship as 2nd officer. As Decker storms off, an alarm sounds. Someone is trying to beam over to the ship, but the transporter is malfunctioning. Kirk and Scotty race to the transporter room. Transporter operator Janice Rand (Grace Lee Whitney) is frantically trying to tell Starfleet to abort the transport, but it is too late. Commander Sonak and an unknown female officer are beaming in, but their bodies aren't re-forming properly in the beam. The female officer screams, and then their bodies disappear. Starfleet signals to them that they have died. Kirk tells Starfleet to express his sympathies to their families.
In the corridor, Kirk sees Decker and tells him they will have to replace Commander Sonak and wants another Vulcan. Decker tells him that no one is available that is familiar with the ship's new design. Kirk tells Decker he will have to double his duties as science officer as well.
In the recreation room, as Kirk briefs the assembled crew on the mission, they receive a transmission from Epsilon 9. Commander Branch (David Gautreaux) tells them they have analyzed the mysterious cloud. It generates an immense amount of energy and measures 2 A.U.s (300 million km) in diameter. There is also a vessel of some kind in the center. They've tried to communicate with it and have performed scans, but the cloud reflects them back. It seems to think of the scans as hostile and attacks them. Like the Klingon ships earlier, Epsilon 9 disappears.
Later on the bridge, Uhura informs Kirk that the transporter is working now. Lt. Ilia, (Persis Khambatta), a bald being from the planet Delta IV, arrives. Decker is happy to see her, as they developed a romantic relationship when he was assigned to her planet several years earlier. Ilia is curious about Decker's reduction in rank and Kirk interrupts and tells her about Decker being the executive and science officer. Decker tells her, with slight sarcasm, that Kirk has the utmost confidence in him. Ilia tells Kirk that her oath of celibacy is on record and asks permission to assume her duties. Uhura tells Kirk that one of the last few crew members to arrive is refusing to beam up. Kirk goes to the transporter room to ensure that "he" beams up.
Kirk tells Starfleet to beam the officer aboard. Dr. Leonard "Bones" McCoy (DeForest Kelley) materializes on the platform. McCoy is angry that his Starfleet commission was reactivated and that it was Kirk's idea for him to be brought along on the mission. His attitude changes, however, when Kirk says he desperately needs him. McCoy leaves to check out the new sickbay.
The crew finishes its repairs and the Enterprise leaves drydock and into the solar system. Dr. McCoy comes up to the bridge and complains that the new sickbay is nothing but a computer center. Kirk is anxious to intercept the cloud intruder, and orders Hikaru Sulu (George Takei) to go to warp speed. Suddenly, the ship enters a wormhole, which was created by an engine imbalance, and is about to collide with an asteroid that has been pulled inside. Kirk orders the phasers to be fired on it, but Decker tells Pavel Chekov (Walter Koenig) to fire photon torpedoes instead. The asteroid and the wormhole are destroyed. Annoyed, Kirk wants to meet with Decker in his quarters. Dr. McCoy decides to go along.
Kirk demands an explanation from Decker. Decker pointed out that the redesigned Enterprise channeled the phasers through the main engines and because they were imbalanced, the phasers were cut off. Kirk acknowledged that he had saved the ship; however, he accuses Decker of competing with him. Decker tells Kirk that, because of his unfamiliarity with the ship's new design, the mission is in jeopardy. Decker tells Kirk that he will gladly help Kirk understand the new design. Kirk then dismisses him from the room. In the corridor, Decker runs into Ilia. Ilia asked if the confrontation was difficult, and he tells her that it was about as difficult as seeing her again, and apologizes. She asked if he was sorry for leaving Delta IV, or for not saying goodbye. He said that if he had seen her again, would she be able to say goodbye? She says "no," and walked around him and entered her quarters nearby.
Back in Kirk's quarters, McCoy accuses Kirk of being the one who was competing, and the fact that it was Kirk who used the emergency to pressure Starfleet into letting him get command of the Enterprise. McCoy thinks that Kirk is obsessed with keeping his command. On Kirk's console viewscreen, Uhura informs Kirk that a shuttlecraft is approaching and that the occupant wishes to dock. Chekov also pipes in and replies that it appears to be a courier vessel. Kirk tells Chekov to handle the situation.
The shuttle approaches the Enterprise from behind, and the top portion of it detaches and docks at an airlock behind the bridge. Chekov is waiting by the airlock doors and is surprised to see Spock come aboard. Moments later, Spock arrives on the bridge, and everyone is shocked and pleased to see him, yet Spock ignores them. He moves over to the science station and tells Kirk that he is aware of the crisis and knows about the ship's engine design difficulties. He offers to step in as the science officer. McCoy and Dr. Christine Chapel (Majel Barret Roddenberry) come to the bridge to greet Spock, but Spock just stares alarmingly at their emotional outburst. Spock leaves to discuss fuel equations with Scotty in engineering.
With Spock's assistance, the engines are now rebalanced for full warp capacity. The ship successfully goes to warp to intercept the cloud. In the officers lounge, Spock meets with Kirk and McCoy. They discuss Spock's kohlinahr training on Vulcan, and how Spock broke off from his training to join them. Spock describes how he sensed the consciousness of the intruder, from a source more powerful that he has ever encountered, with perfect, logical thought patterns. He believes that it holds the answers he seeks. Uhura tells Kirk over the intercom that they have visual contact with the intruder.
The cloud scans the ship, but Kirk orders no return scans. Spock determines that the scans are coming from the center of the cloud. Uhura tries sending "linguacode" messages, but there is no response. Decker suggests raising the shields for protection, but Kirk determines that that might be considered hostile to the cloud. Spock analyzes the clouds composition, and discovers it has a 12-power energy field, the equivalent of power generated by thousands of starships.
Sitting at the science station, Spock awakens from a brief trance. He reveals to Kirk that the alien was communicating with him. The alien is puzzled; it contacted the Enterprise--why has the Enterprise not replied? A red alert sounds, and an energy beam from within the cloud touches the ship, and begins to overload the ship's systems. Bolts of lightning surround the warp core and nearly injure some engineering officers, and Chekov is also hurt--his hand is burned while sitting at the weapons station on the bridge. The energy beam then disappears. A medical team is summoned to the bridge, and Ilia is able to use her telepathic powers to soothe Chekov's pain.
Spock confirms to Kirk that the alien has been attempting to communicate. It communicates at a frequency of more than one million megahertz, and at such a high rate of speed, the message only lasts a millisecond. Spock programs to computer to send linguacode messages at that frequency. Another energy beam is sent out, but Spock transmits a message just in time, and the beam disappears. The ship continues on course through the cloud. They pass through many expansive and colorful cloud layers and upon clearing these, a giant vessel is revealed. It is roughly cylindrical in shape, with large spikes jutting out from the surface at equidistant angles between each other, forming a hexagon-like shape.
Kirk tells Uhura to transmit an image of the alien to Starfleet, but she explains that any transmission sent out of the cloud is being reflected back to them. Kirk orders Sulu to fly above and along the top of the vessel. The Enterprise is so small compared to the size of the alien vessel that it appears only as a little white dot next to it. The ship travels past many oddly-shaped structures, including a sunken area where the energy beams originate.
An alarm sounds, and yet another energy bolt approaches the ship. It appears on the bridge as a column of bright light that emits a very loud noise. The crew struggles to shield their eyes from its brilliant glow. Chekov asks Spock if it is one of the alien's crew, and Spock replies that it is a probe sent from the vessel. The probe slowly moves around the room and stops in front of the science station. Bolts of lightning shoot out from it and surround the console--it is trying to access the ship's computer. Spock manages to smash the controls to prevent further access, and the probe gives him an electric shock that sends him rolling onto the floor. The probe approaches the helm/navigation console and it scans Lt. Ilia. Suddenly, she vanishes, along with the probe.
Ahead of the ship looms another giant section of the vessel. A tractor beam is drawing the Enterprise toward an opening aperture. Decker calls for Chief DiFalco (Marcy Lafferty) to come up to the bridge as Ilia's replacement. The ship travels deep into the next chamber. Decker wonders why they were brought inside--they could have been easily destroyed outside. Spock deduces that the alien is curious about them. Uhura's monitor shows that the aperture is closing; they are trapped. The ship is released from the tractor beam and suddenly, an intruder alert goes off. Someone has come aboard the ship and is in the crew quarters section.
Kirk and Spock arrive inside a crewman's quarters to discover that the intruder is inside the sonic shower. It is revealed to be Ilia, although it isn't really her--there is a small red device attached to her neck. In a mechanized voice, she replies "You are the Kirk unit--you will listen to me." She explains that she has been programmed by an entity called "V'Ger" to observe and record the normal functions of the carbon-based units (humans) "infesting" the Enterprise. Kirk opens the shower door and "Ilia" steps out, wearing a small white garment that just materialized around her. Dr. McCoy and a security officer enter the room, and Kirk tells McCoy to scan her with a tricorder.
Kirk asks her who V'Ger is. She replies "V'Ger is that which programmed me." McCoy tells Kirk that Ilia is a mechanism and Spock confirms she is a probe that assumed Ilia's physical form. Kirk asks where the real Ilia is, and the probe states that "that unit" no longer functions. Kirk also asks why V'Ger is traveling to Earth, and the probe answers that it wishes to find the Creator, join with him, and become one with it. Spock suggests that McCoy perform a complete examination of the probe.
In sickbay, the Ilia probe lays on a diagnostic table, its sensors slowly taking readings. All normal body functions, down to the microscopic level, are exactly duplicated by the probe. Decker arrives and is stunned to see her there. She looks up at him and addresses him as "Decker", rather than "Decker unit," which intrigues Spock. Spock talks with Kirk and Decker in an adjoining room, and Spock locks the door. Spock theorizes that the real Ilia's memories and feelings have been duplicated by the probe as well as her body. Decker is angry that the probe killed Ilia, but Kirk convinces him that their only contact with the vessel is through the probe, and they need to use that advantage to find out more about the alien. Suddenly, the probe bursts through the door, and demands that Kirk assist her with her observations. He tells her that Decker will do it with more efficiency.
Decker and Ilia are seen walking around in the recreation room. He shows her pictures of previous ships that were named Enterprise. Decker has been trying to see if Ilia's memories or emotions can resurface, but to no avail. Kirk and McCoy are observing them covertly on a monitor from his quarters. Decker shows her a game that the crew enjoys playing. She is not interested and states that recreation and enjoyment has no meaning to her programming. At another game, which Ilia enjoyed and nearly always won, they both press one of their hands down onto a table to play it. The table lights up, indicating she won the game, and she gazes into Deckers eyes. This moment of emotion ends suddenly, and she returns to normal. "This device serves no purpose."
"Why does the Enterprise require the presence of carbon units?" she asks. Decker tells her the ship couldn't function without them. She tells him that more information is needed before the crew can be patterned for data storage. Horrified, he asks her what this means. "When my examination is complete, all carbon units will be reduced to data patterns." He tells her that within her are the memory patterns of a certain carbon unit. He convinces her to let him help her revive those patterns so that she can understand their functions better. She allows him to proceed.
Spock slowly enters an airlock room. He sees an officer standing at a console, his back to Spock. Spock quietly approaches him, and gives him the Vulcan nerve pinch to render him unconscious.
Decker, the probe, Dr. McCoy, and Dr. Chapel are in Ilia's quarters. Dr. Chapel gives the probe a decorative headband that Ilia used to wear. Chapel puts it over "Ilia's" head and turns her toward a mirror. Decker asks her if she remembers wearing it on Delta IV. The probe shows another moment of emotion, saying Dr. Chapel's name, and putting her hand on Decker's face, calling him Will. Behind them, McCoy reminds Decker that she is a mechanism. Decker asks "Ilia" to help them make contact with V'Ger. She says that she can't, and Decker asks her who the Creator is. She says V'Ger does not know. The probe becomes emotionless again and removes the headband.
Spock is now outside the ship in a space suit with an attached thruster pack. He begins recording a log entry for Kirk detailing his attempt to contact the alien. He activates a panel on the suit and calculates thruster ignition and acceleration to coincide with the opening of an aperture ahead of him. He hopes to get a better view of the spacecraft interior.
Kirk comes up to the bridge and Uhura tells him that Starfleet signals are growing stronger, indicating they are very close to Earth. Starfleet is monitoring the intruder and notifies Uhura that it is slowing down in its approach. Sulu confirms this and says that lunar beacons show the intruder is entering into orbit. Chekov tells Kirk that Airlock 4 has been opened and a thruster suit is missing. Kirk figures out that Spock has done it, and orders Chekov to get Spock back on the ship. He changes his mind, and instead tells him to determine his position.
Spock touches a button on his thruster panel and his thruster engine ignites. He is propelled forward rapidly, and enters the next chamber of the vessel just before the aperture closes behind him. The thruster engine shuts down, and the momentum carries Spock ahead further. He disconnects the thruster pack from his suit and it falls away from him.
Continuing his log entry, Spock sees an image of what he believes to be V'Gers home planet. He passes through a tunnel filled with crackling plasma energy, possibly a power source for a gigantic imaging system. Next, he sees several more images of planets, moons, stars, and galaxies stored and recorded. Spock theorizes that this may be a visual representation of V'Gers entire journey. "But who or what are we dealing with?" he ponders.
He sees the Epsilon 9 station, and notes to Kirk that he is convinced that all of what he is seeing is V'Ger; and that they are inside a living machine. Then he sees a giant image of Lt. Ilia with the sensor on her neck. Spock decides it must have some special meaning, so he attempts to mind-meld with it. He is quickly overwhelmed by the multitude of images flooding his mind, and is thrown backward.
Kirk is now in a space suit and has exited the ship. The aperture in front of the Enterprise opens, and Spock's unconscious body floats toward him. Later, Dr. Chapel and Dr. McCoy are examining Spock in sickbay. Dr. McCoy performs scans and determines that Spock endured massive neurological trauma from the mind-meld. Spock tells Kirk he should have known and Kirk asks if he was right about V'Ger. Spock calls it a conscious, living entity. Kirk explains that V'Ger considers the Enterprise a living machine and it's why "Ilia" refers to the ship as an entity and the crew as an infestation.
Spock describes V'Ger's homeworld as a planet populated by living machines with unbelievable technology. But with all that logic and knowledge, V'Ger is barren, with no mystery or meaning. He momentarily lapses into sleep but Kirk rouses him awake to ask what Spock should have known. Spock grasps Kirk's hand and tells him "This simple feeling is beyond V'Ger's comprehension. No meaning, no hope. And Jim, no answers. It's asking questions. 'Is this all that I am? Is there nothing more?'"
Uhura chimes in and tells Kirk that they are getting a faint signal from Starfleet. The intruder has been on their monitors for a while and the cloud is rapidly dissipating as it approaches. Sulu also comments that the intruder has slowed to sub-warp speed and is three minutes from Earth orbit. Kirk acknowledges and he, McCoy and Spock go up to the bridge.
Starfleet sends the Enterprise a tactical report on the intruders position. Uhura tells Kirk that V'Ger is transmitting a signal. Decker and "Ilia" come up to the bridge, and she says that V'Ger is signaling the Creator. Spock determines that the transmission is a radio signal. Decker tells Kirk that V'Ger expects an answer, but Kirk doesn't know the question. Then "Ilia" says that the Creator has not responded. An energy bolt is released from V'Ger and positions itself above Earth. Chekov reports that all planetary defense systems have just gone inoperative. Several more bolts are released, and they all split apart to form smaller ones and they assume equidistant positions around the planet.
McCoy notices that the bolts are the same ones that hit the ship earlier, and Spock says that these are hundreds of times more powerful, and from those positions, they can destroy all life on Earth. "Why?" Kirk asks "Ilia." She says that the carbon unit infestation will be removed from the Creator's planet as they are interfering with the Creator's ability to respond and accuses the crew of infesting the Enterprise and interfering in the same manner. Kirk tells "Ilia" that carbon units are a natural function of the Creator's planet and they are living things, not infestations. However "Ilia" says they are not true life forms like the Creator. McCoy realizes V'Ger must think its creator is a machine.
Spock compares V'Ger to a child, and suggests they treat it like one. McCoy retorts that this child is about to wipe out every living thing on Earth. To get "Ilia's" attention, Kirk says that the carbon units know why the Creator hasn't responded. The Ilia probe demands that the Creator "disclose the information." Kirk won't do it until V'Ger withdraws all the orbiting devices. In response to this, V'Ger cuts off the ship's communications with Starfleet. She tells him again to disclose the information. He refuses, and a plasma energy attack shakes the ship. McCoy tells Spock that the child is having a "tantrum."
Kirk tells the probe that if V'Ger destroys the Enterprise, then the information it needs will also be destroyed. Ilia says that it is illogical to withhold the required information, and asks him why he won't disclose it. Kirk explains it is because V'Ger is going to destroy all life on Earth. "Ilia" says that they have oppressed the Creator, and Kirk makes it clear he will not disclose anything. V'Ger needs the information, says "Ilia." Kirk says that V'Ger will have to withdraw all the orbiting devices. "Ilia" says that V'Ger will comply, if the carbon units give the information.
Spock tells Kirk that V'Ger must have a central brain complex. Kirk theorizes that the orbiting devices are controlled from there. Kirk tells "Ilia" that the information cant be disclosed to V'Ger's probe, but only to V'Ger itself. "Ilia" stares at the viewscreen, and, in response, the aperture opens and drags the ship forward with a tractor beam into the next chamber. Chekov tells Kirk that the energy bolts will reach their final positions and activate in 27 minutes. Kirk calls to Scotty on the intercom and tells him to stand by to execute Starfleet Order 2005; the self-destruct command. A female crewmember asks Scotty why Kirk ordered self-destruct, and Scotty tells her that Kirk hopes that when they explode, so will the intruder.
The countdown is now down to 18 minutes. DiFalco reports that they have traveled 17 kilometers inside the vessel. Kirk goes over to Spock's station, and sees that Spock has been crying. "Not for us," Kirk realizes. Spock tells him he is crying for V'Ger, and that he weeps for V'Ger as he would for a brother. As he was when he came aboard the Enterprise, so is V'Ger now--empty, incomplete, and searching. Logic and knowledge are not enough. McCoy realizes Spock has found what he needed, but that V'Ger hasn't. Decker wonders what V'Ger would need to fulfill itself.
Spock comments that each one of us, at some point in our lives asks, "Why am I here?" "What was I meant to be?" V'Ger hopes to touch its Creator and find those answers. DiFalco directs Kirk's attention to the viewscreen. Ahead of them is a structure with a bright light. Sulu reports that forward motion has stopped. Chekov replies that an oxygen/gravity envelope has formed outside of the ship. "Ilia" points to the structure on the screen and identifies it as V'Ger. Uhura has located the source of the radio signal and it is straight ahead. A passageway forms outside the ship as Kirk Spock, McCoy, Decker, and "Ilia" enter a turbolift.
The landing party exits an airlock on the top of the saucer section and walks up the passageway. At the end of the path is a concave structure, and in the center of it is an old NASA probe from three centuries earlier. Kirk tries to rub away the smudges on the nameplate and makes out the letters V G E R. He continues to rub, and discovers that the craft is actually Voyager 6. Kirk recalls the history of the Voyager program--it was designed to collect data and transmit it back to Earth. Decker tells Kirk that Voyager 6 disappeared through a black hole.
Kirk says that it must have emerged on the far side of the galaxy and got caught in the machine planet's gravity. Spock theorizes that the planet's inhabitants found the probe to be one of their own kind--primitive, yet kindred. They discovered the probe's 20th century programming, which was to collect data and return that information to its creator. The machines interpreted that instruction literally, and constructed the entire vessel so that Voyager could fulfill its programming. Kirk continues by saying that on its journey back, it amassed so much knowledge that it gained its own consciousness.
"Ilia" tells Kirk that V'Ger awaits the information. Kirk calls Uhura on his communicator and tells her to find information on the probe in the ship's computer, specifically the NASA code signal, which will allow the probe to transmit its data. Decker realizes that that is what the probe was signaling--it's ready to transmit everything. Kirk then says that there is no one on Earth who recognizes the old-style signal--the Creator does not answer.
Kirk calls out to V'Ger and says that they are the Creator. "Ilia" says that is not logical--carbon units are not true life forms. Kirk says they will prove it by allowing V'Ger to complete its programming. Uhura calls Kirk on his communicator and tells him she has retrieved the code. Kirk tells her to set the Enterprise transmitter to the code frequency and to transmit the signal. Decker reads off the numerical code on his tricorder, and is about to read the final sequence, but Voyager's circuitry burns out, an effort by V'Ger itself to prevent the last part of the code from being transmitted.
"Ilia" says that the Creator must join with V'Ger, and turns toward Decker. McCoy warns Kirk that they only have 10 minutes left. Decker figures out that V'Ger wanted to bring the Creator here and transmit the code in person. Spock tells Kirk that V'Ger's knowledge has reached the limits of the universe and it must evolve. Kirk says that V'Ger needs a human quality in order to evolve. Decker thinks that V'Ger joining with the Creator will accomplish that. He then goes over to the damaged circuitry and fixes the wires so he can manually enter the rest of the code through the ground test computer. Kirk tries to stop him, but "Ilia" tosses him aside. Decker tells Kirk that he wants this as much as Kirk wanted the Enterprise.
Suddenly, a bright light forms around Decker's body. "Ilia" moves over to him, and the light encompasses them both as they merge together. Their bodies disappear, and the light expands and begins to consume the area. Kirk, Spock, and McCoy retreat back to the Enterprise. V'Ger explodes, leaving the Enterprise above Earth, unharmed. On the bridge, Kirk wonders if they just saw the beginning of a new life form, and Spock says yes and that it is possibly the next step in their evolution. McCoy says that its been a while since he "delivered" a baby, and hopes that they got this one off to a good start.
Uhura tells Kirk that Starfleet is requesting the ship's damage and injury reports and vessel status. Kirk reports that there were only two casualties: Lt. Ilia and Captain Decker. He quickly corrects his statement and changes their status to "missing." Vessel status: fully operational. Scotty comes on the bridge and agrees with Kirk that it's time to give the Enterprise a proper shakedown. When Scotty offers to have Spock back on Vulcan in four days, Spock says that's unnecessary, as his task on Vulcan is completed.
Kirk tells Sulu to proceed ahead at warp factor one. When DiFalco asks for a heading, Kirk simply says "Out there, thataway." With that, the Enterprise flies overhead and engages warp drive.
This is the Stanley Islander 19 Dual Console. Could it be the perfect Rabbit Island boat? We're currently searching for a boat for summer 2012 and weighing potential options. Built in Canada near Parry Sound it is specifically designed for use on Lake Huron around the rocky islands of eastern Georgian Bay. It is self bailing (it doesn't even have a bilge!), welded aluminum (as opposed to riveted), low maintenance, tough as nails, no-frills, and efficient... but also very expensive. I drove up to Canada to see it at the Toronto International Boat Show a few weeks ago and fell in love. Does anyone know where we could find one used? If so drop a line. Apparently they are very hard to come by because people hold on to them forever and there are very few that have been imported to the States. Other considerations include a used Boston Whaler Outrage 17, Grady White Sportsman 180, or Lund Alaskan 18. These are somewhat easier to find used but do not have the combination of aluminum construction and self-bailing hull (they are either one or the other). Aluminum seems like it would be much easier to maintain than fiberglass and more practical in situations adjacent to a rocky shoreline should it bump against the rocks or get pulled on shore. Which one would you go with? Other ideas? Post them below or on Facebook.

We arrived at Innisfree as soon as it opened at 10AM one mid-August morning when the entire Northeastern US was in the middle of a record heatwave. Despite the heat and humidity, we were able to make a quick 1.5 mile circle on the path around the deep glacial lake at the heart of this 150 acre garden before we wilted and had to return to our air conditioned car. The harsh mid-day light made photography challenging, as you can see. We learned that Innisfree, said by some to be one of the world's Ten Great Gardens, opens at sunrise on three occasions each year, and we are already planning another trip to the Hudson River Valley in the future when we hope we can see and photograph this amazing place under better conditions.
"Like the pyramids of Egypt or the Great Wall of China, Innisfree helps us to define what we mean by ‘civilization’. It’s one of the few places in this world that lived up to — nay, exceeded — my expectations."
David Wheeler, Editor, Hortus (2013)
"In the late 1920s, Walter Beck and his wife, avid gardener and heiress Marion Burt Beck, began work on Innisfree, their country residence in Millbrook, New York. Walter Beck’s fascination with Asian art influenced his painting, the collecting he and his wife pursued, and their ideas on garden design. In the 1930s, Beck discovered the work of 8th-century Chinese poet, painter and garden maker Wang Wei. Studying scroll paintings of his famed garden, the Wangchuan Villa, Beck observed that Wang created carefully defined, inwardly focused gardens and garden vignettes within a larger, naturalistic landscape. Wang’s place-making technique — christened “cup gardens,” by Beck — influenced centuries of Chinese and Japanese garden design. It is also the principal design motif in the Innisfree landscape. Like his Chinese predecessor, Beck created three-dimensional pictures in the garden, incorporating both rocks from the site and horticultural advice from his wife. Unlike Wang Wei, or perhaps more familiar figures like Lawrence Johnston, who used his cup-like rooms at Hidcote in England to draw one through a sequence of events and create an overall sense of place, Beck focused more on individual compositions. Relating these to each other and to the landscape as a whole was the genius of Lester Collins."
The genius of this place lies not so much in the ideas which the designers formulated for the cup gardens, many of which are disarmingly simple, but in the way they have been maintained over the years. Essentially, everything is allowed to settle into the prevailing spirit of the place; if it does not, it is removed. It is this sensitivity, care and attention to the qualities of landscape, natural and made, that make Innisfree such a memorable success.
Tim Richardson, Great Gardens of America (2000)
Western gardens are usually designed to embrace a view of the whole. Little is hidden. The garden, like a stage set, is there in its entirety, its overall design revealed in a glance. The traditional Chinese garden is usually designed so that a view of the whole is impossible. [It] requires a stroll over serpentine, seemingly aimless arteries. The observer walks into a series of episodes, like Alice through the looking glass."
Lester Collins, Innisfree: An American Garden (1994)
Hina Rabbani Khar www.thesaturdaypost.com/rv_37_hinakhar.html (Urdu: حنا ربانی کھر ) (born 1977) is a Pakistani member of parliament, affiliated with the PPP. She served as the State Minister for Economic Affairs and Statistics (without any real world experience or academic qualification) as National Assembly member of PML-Q in (2003-2007) & as an MNA and adviser to Prime Minister for PPP (2008 - Present). Q was heavily defeated in 2008 Elections due to economic mismanagement and shortage of food, water and energy. Q refused the ticket for re-election in 08 to Hina Khar. PPP resuced Hina Khar by offering her the ticket in 08. She is PPPs federal minister these days.
Hina Rabbani Khar is rich and famous privileged daughter of feudal politician Ghulam Noor Rabbani Khar who was ineligible for elections because he did not have a university degree www.verveonline.com/26/people/tehmina/tehmina.shtml) and niece of infamous playboy ( www.jazbah.org/bookmfl.php chief minister of Punjab Ghulam Mustafa Khar, who abandoned Bhutto and was exiled from Pakistan for a decade in 77 in a deal with General Zia, to avoid jail time. The Khar political lure comes from the family's land holdings: their sprawling estate includes fisheries, mango orchards and sugarcane fields manned by thousands of poor workers of Punjab. www.guardian.co.uk/world/2008/feb/18/pakistan
Khar received a B.Sc. from Lahore University of Management Sciences in 1999 and went on to earn a M.Sc. in hospitality trade and tourism from the University of Massachusetts in 2001. In 2008, she was named to the World Economic Forum's list of young global leaders.In 2008, Hina was elected as a member of National Assembly with a ticket from PPP from the constituency of Muzaffargarh, Punjab. She is adviser to Prime Minister of Pakistan on Economic and Financial affairs.
She owns an upscale ritzy restaurant Polo Lounge with expensive european menu www.dailytimes.com.pk/default.asp?page=story_18-1-2004_pg... in Lahore. She Says: This is a place for people with discerning taste who can appreciate good quality food and (upscale) environment.Her dream is to become Prime Minister of Pakistan one day and possibly join PML(n) in next government. She regards Musharraf and Zardari as visionary leaders. www.pakistanileaders.com.pk/profilesdetail.php?id=257
And talking of failures, it was most interesting to see Hina Rabbani Khar vent her ire at the miserable performance of the previous Shaukat Aziz government. It is amazing how some of our politicians change their views and loyalties effortlessly in tune with changing times. It was not that long ago that the same Hina Rabbani Khar could be heard praising Shaukat Aziz and his economic genius to no end. Of course at the time, she was sitting on the PML-Q occupied treasury benches. Being a wily Khar after all, she smelled the change in the air and joined the PPP a few weeks prior to the general elections and she is, once again, looking pretty and sitting pretty as always on the treasury benches. On a second thought maybe her politics is constant: that of occupying a treasury bench. Period!
/print1.asp?id=118520
She says she loves diamonds, pearls, rubies, designer purses, expensive shades and fast expensive cars. She admits she knows nothing about real economics or finance but loves to give interviews about Pakistan Economy and pretend to be expert. or sit with global financial leaders and sign documents, she says my job is to charm western leadership by looking good. When asked what she likes about her job, after a long pause she replied, frequent free first class trips outside Pakistan, staying in luxury hotels, shopping and receiving expensive gifts.
Our feudal and their kins have always saluted the power and the rule, and their this flexibility has made them the masters of our wretched destinies.

Christian Testimonies | Finding God Is True Happiness (Part 2)
After praying, I read some of God’s words: “‘Money makes the mare go’ is the philosophy of Satan and it prevails among every human society. You could say that it is a trend because it has been instilled into the heart of every single person and is now affixed in their heart. People went from not accepting this saying to growing used to it so that when they came into contact with real life, they gradually gave tacit approval to it, acknowledged its existence and finally, they gave it their own seal of approval. Is this right? (Yes.) Isn’t this process that of Satan corrupting man?” (“God Himself, the Unique V” in The Word Appears in the Flesh). “With man’s demand for ever increasing amounts of money, people unknowingly came to love money, love gain and love enjoyment more and more. So did people come to view money as more important? When people view money as more important, they unknowingly neglect their reputation, their renown, prestige, and integrity; they neglect all these things, don’t they? When you engage in business, you see someone else taking different approaches and using various means to swindle people and get rich. Although the money earned is ill-gotten gains, they get richer and richer. Their whole family engages in the same business as you, but they enjoy life more than you do, and you feel bad, saying: ‘Why can’t I do that? Why can’t I earn as much as they do? I must think of a way to get more money, to make my business prosper.’ You then ponder this through. … Every single person wants to use cheating means and violent methods to live in amongst their fellow man; they lie, cheat and become violent in order to seize their own livelihood; … they do anything they want using violent and evil ways. Is this humanity not terrifying? (Yes.) After hearing Me talk about these things just now, do you not think it terrifying to live in amongst this kind of crowd, in this world and in this environment that Satan has corrupted? (Yes.) So have you ever felt yourselves to be pitiful? You must feel it a little now. (Yes.)” (“God Himself, the Unique VI” in The Word Appears in the Flesh).
God’s words had incisively revealed the source of our degeneracy, which is that Satan is contaminating our heart with poisonous heresies such as: “Money is first,” “Money makes the mare go,” “Money isn’t everything, but without it, you can do nothing,” and so on. We are living our lives based on these poisons, thinking that money is everything and that we need lots of it to be happy. That’s why we strive so hard to get it, without the slightest bit of consideration for anything else. As slaves to money and profit, we all live by the concept of “Any method is OK as long as it makes money.” In all trades and professions there are secret rules that insiders are all in tacit agreement about as they go about their business of telling lies and cheating each other. At heart, people have become selfish, cold, and vicious. No one gives a fig for good conscience or morality anymore.
I pondered God’s words and remembered how degenerate and evil I became after getting caught up in the great rush to make money. At first, I was happy to work hard honestly to get enough money to eat. But then I saw how much more income others had, how much their lives were better than mine, and while I admired them I was also envious. So in order to make big money I learned all of Satan’s life philosophies, all of the rules of the game of survival, and began to compete and scheme against my colleagues while hiding it all behind a smile. I groveled to my bosses and took every chance to ingratiate myself; I sweet-talked and cajoled my clients. … There was no one I didn’t deceive, no method that was too low for me, and my whole persona became one of fakeness and oily hypocrisy. But all while I regarded myself as a smart and capable guy. I was totally under the influence of the evil trends of the material world and I was being sucked deeper and deeper into a whirlpool of sin. I was completely lacking in integrity or self-respect and my life had no worthwhile direction to it. This is how Satan was toying with me, cruelly abusing me. In fact, it wasn’t just me who was unable to extricate myself from this evil tide of “Money is first” mindset—a lot of my friends and colleagues were stuck in it too. And then there was my schoolmate, the one making 140,000, who any casual observer would think would have a happy and content family life. In fact, he spent his nights in bars and clubs, drinking and womanizing, and when his wife found out she left him immediately. And so another happy family lay in ruins. I thought often about the experiences of the people around me and just how extravagant and dissipated my life had become, and I became more and more convinced that society was one big melting pot of evil! “Money is first,” “Money makes the mare go,” and all those other satanic rules of survival are the source of mankind’s corruption and degeneracy. These are cunning schemes and tricks that Satan uses to abuse people and swallow them up! Now I feel extremely lucky that I was chosen by God, that through reading God’s words I was able to see clearly the reality of mankind’s corruption by Satan. Whenever I was interacting with the brothers and sisters, I could see that there was no deceit or mutual exploitation going on between them. Whenever difficulties arose, they would talk about them openly and encourage and support each other. They were simple and honest, and were always fair and square with each other. All this made me feel that believing in God really is a good thing!
After that, in order to understand more of God’s words, I also began to put every effort into fulfilling church duties when I wasn’t working. I began to read more of God’s words, and came to realize more and more that the road in life that I’d been walking for all those years was completely meaningless. I’d been letting Satan torture and abuse me. I read these words of God’s and understood just how realistic His words are: “Can the various material things enjoyed by people’s flesh bring them comfort in their hearts? What can their feeling of superiority in life and material abundance bring? (Depravity.) They make people depraved, and make them lose their way. … Would you say that money can satisfy people’s greedy desires? (No.) It can’t—it is incapable of solving these problems of man. … When you allow God’s words to be wrought into you, so that you have the life of God within you, and have God’s words and the truth as your real life, is there value to your living? (Yes.) Without realizing it, do you become noble? Do you gradually come to live with dignity?” (“Only With the Truth as Their Life Can People Live a Life of Value” in Records of Christ’s Talks). No matter how much money people make in the material world, no matter how luxurious and comfortable their lives become, none of it is a remedy for the spiritual emptiness they feel. Chasing after material things will only make people more degenerate, more corrupt. So many people believe that happiness is eating well, dressing well, and generally enjoying the best of everything, but once they make a lot of money and get what they want they begin to get degenerate and corrupt. Then their lives turn sour very quickly, and they end up suffering more than when they were poor and sometimes even want to give up on life. In this time, Almighty God has brought the truth to our world so that we may, from His words, clearly see the reality, and the source, of how Satan corrupts mankind. By accepting and practicing God’s words and living by the truth, we can be true human beings who have self-respect and value in their lives.
Almighty God saved me from the depths of suffering and gave direction and purpose to my life. I already hated my old way of making a living by saying or doing unscrupulous things, and decided to change my lifestyle and become an open, honest, and upstanding person. I would no longer live just for money or pleasures of the flesh but instead would live to satisfy God! But although I decided to change my ways, Satan did not give up so easily and still frequently disturbed me by not letting me attend meetings or do church duties in peace. One time when I was in a meeting, my deputy general manager kept on calling me trying to get me to go to a client to win an order. I refused, but shortly afterward he called again and said that he was calling an impromptu meeting to discuss how to get more clients and improve the company’s business. Every time something like this happened, I always felt at a loss about what to do: I didn’t want to miss the chance to learn more about God’s words but I was also afraid of refusing the boss’ arrangements and being fired. So just when I was feeling stuck, I read these words of God’s: “In every step of work that God does within people, externally it appears to be interactions between people, as if born of human arrangements, or from human interference. But behind the scenes, every step of work, and everything that happens, is a wager made by Satan before God, and requires people to stand firm in their testimony to God. … Everything you do requires you to pay a certain price in your efforts. Without actual hardship, you can’t satisfy God, it does not even come close to satisfying God, and you are just saying empty slogans! Can these empty slogans satisfy God? When God and Satan do battle in the spiritual realm, how should you satisfy God, and how should you stand firm in your testimony to Him? … Everything that happens to people is when God needs them to stand firm in their testimony to Him. Nothing major has happened to you at the moment, and you do not bear great testimony, but every detail of your daily life relates to the testimony to God” (“Only Loving God Is Truly Believing in God” in The Word Appears in the Flesh). From God’s words I understood His intention. I could see that deciding to satisfy God and lead a meaningful life didn’t mean that Satan was going to leave me alone, as shown by Satan making my deputy general manager call me to drag me into more schemes to cheat people and make money. Wasn’t this Satan testing me, a part of its cunning tricks? I was grateful for God’s enlightenment, and resolved never to fall into Satan’s trap again but instead to stand firm for God. With this in mind, I was able to participate in the meeting in peace and was able to experience a new-found ease and satisfaction. After that, I never again deceived my clients when trying to win orders but instead just explained everything clearly and let them decide what to invest in themselves. What surprised me was that although I wasn’t spending much time trying to boost my performance figures I was still able to meet my performance targets before the end of every month. Everyone else was amazed by that but I was sure that God was controlling everything and that because I was doing what God demanded I was gaining His protection and blessings.
When I pondered this carefully, I came to the conclusion that I was able to come before God and attain His salvation because behind the scenes God had been protecting my route toward Him. If it weren’t for God’s compassion and care, who knows what I’d be like today. I remember how exhausted I used to be every day, working day and night. First in the hairdressing salon, where I ended up continuously ill with problems with my shoulders, neck and stomach. And then I got into the finance industry and betrayed my own conscience and humanity in order to make big money. I was willing to play all sorts of tricks and deceive people to make lots of dubious cash. But God had mercy on me and brought me before Him, releasing me from the bestial life that I’d been living and bringing me into the light. If it weren’t for that, I would have collapsed from exhaustion on that road to riches and wouldn’t be alive today. When I considered how God loved me, I was filled with gratitude toward Him and committed myself to loyally fulfilling my duties to repay His benevolence.
I eventually left the finance industry and found another job that I could do with honesty and integrity. Many of my colleagues said to me: “What a shame! You’ve been a manager in a big company like this, so you could easily go to another finance company and be a deputy general manager and trade through your own account. Won’t you feel that you’re wasting your talents in some other business?” When I heard them talking like this I just smiled and didn’t say anything. I knew that I’d made the right decision because as one of the created I naturally had to fulfill my duty to God. Although my days are now ordinary and uneventful, at least I’m not constantly anxious, and I’ve come to realize that true happiness is being at peace and leading an honest lifestyle. I saw how difficult it was for God to save me—being the total moneygrubber that I was—and I saw how Satan uses money to torture people and lead them into suffering and degeneracy. I’ll never follow Satan again or get involved in murky deals that harm people. I must throw away my book of professional tricks and reinvent myself, and from now on I’ll only walk the true path of pursuing truths and worshiping God so that I can live in the light!

Its difficult to see the link with Woodbastwick for this John Abel. The list of people served in the Woodbastwick Church describes him as a Sergeant in the Scots Guards, and presumably there is some link through the Cators.
Possibly therefore, (the only John Abel listed as serving with the Scots Guards)

No obvious match on the 1901 Genes Reunited Census search, nor a trace of Henry & Annie Elizabeth. Unfortunately I don’t have access to Scottish Census Records. The 1911 high-level Census search has a 15 year old John Abel, (which would tie in with the Hardingham man), recorded in the District of Mitford, Norfolk.
Norlink has a Lance Corporal John Thomas Thomas Abel of the Scots Guard, but links him to Hardingham without any further information as to which village he came from, or indeed if he even died during WW1. The Cator’s who owned the village, have historic associations with the Scots Guards. The shoulder tabs in the picture definitely look like they begin “Machine”

There is an Alfred G Bailey, aged 17, born Keswick, Norfolk on the 1901 Census. Alfred was working as a Domestic Groom and was living at The Street, Keswick, the household of his parents, Edward J, (aged 53 and a Domestic Gardener), and Ann, (aged 57), along with brother Herbert S, (aged 15 and also working as a Domestic Gardener)
There is a Corporal Alfred Bailey of the Royal Garrison Artillery listed on the People who served memorial in the Swardeston village church, but he appears to have survived. Swardeston is next door to Keswick, and I know when I looked at Swardeston and Mulbarton, there was a smattering of Keswick names on both villages memorials, presumably as a result of individuals choosing to go to church, (these are frequently Parish rather than Village memorials), or moving in the intervening years between 1901 and the outbreak of the war.
www.roll-of-honour.com/Norfolk/Swardeston.html
The 1911 Census is now starting to come on line. From a high-level search, it would appear that there were two Alfred Bailey’s living in Norfolk of the right age, (26/27) to tie in with the Groom who was living at Keswick.. One was at Blofield, and one was at Henstead.
The fall of Beaucourt: 14th November 1916
On Freyberg's right II Corps had taken St Pierre Divion on the afternoon of the 13th and men from the 1st Cambridgeshire Regiment had been ferrying ammunition and grenades across the Ancre to replenish spent supplies.
During the night 111th Brigade from 37th Division had been brought up to assist the 63rd in their assault on the untaken section of the Beaucourt Trench to the left of Freyberg's group. The 13th Royal Fusiliers and 13th Rifle Brigade started their advance at 06:20 hours but despite some gains it soon became apparent that nothing further was going to be achieved until Beaucourt had been taken.
For the push to take the village 190th Brigade had assembled as many men as it could in the vicinity of Beaucourt Station, including 400 men from 1st HAC and about 80 of the 7th Royal Fusiliers. These advanced at 07:45 hours as far as Freyberg, who then led the men immediately into the attack on the village.
Despite the strong resistance in the trenches to the west of the village, Beaucourt fell remarkably easily with the gain of 500 prisoners. By 10:30 hours Freyberg could report that he was in control of Beaucourt.
Tanks
The original planning for the attack had utilised a number of tanks, but it had quickly been realised that with the ground so well churned by the bombardment that they would be more of a hindrance and had been sent back to the rear.
Now, on the second day, two were again brought forward in an attempt to deal with the stronghold machine gun nest which continued to hold up the Division's advance to the west of Beaucourt.
Both tanks soon became bogged down in mud but not before one of them had advanced far enough to be able to use its 6 pounder guns to good effect, and causing the German garrison of over 400 to surrender.
That evening the line of advance was pushed further forward around Beaucourt and the left was brought up to the Beaucourt Trench. It would take another few days of fighting to finally secure all that had been envisaged on the 12th

The 1901 Census has a number of potential John Burrows born in Norwich and the suburb of Sprowston, which is off the roads that lead to Woodbastwick. However there is not one of the right age to tie in with John Mandell Burrows, on the Genes Re-united search engine.
The basic search of the 1911 Census that’s available reveals that a John Burrows of the right age was recorded in the District of Blofield.
The 7th June 1917 was the opening day of the Battle of Messines, a considerable success for the British. Significant mining of the German front line had been achieved. When the British artillery bombardment ceased, the German troops emerged to man their weapons in anticipation of the coming attack. At this point the simultaneous detonation of 19 mines (600 tons of explosives) is claimed to have cost over 10,000 German lives. The 74th Brigade, of which the 9th Loyal North Lancs formed a part, were part of the force that then moved forward to hold the ground. The explosion is claimed to have been the loudest man-made noise up to that time. Or to quote the General in charge - "Gentlemen, we may not make history tomorrow, but we shall certainly change the geography."

In 1901 he was an ordinary Agricultural Labourer, who was born at Bergh Apton but had married Sophia C., from Salhouse. Sophia was also 50. Living with them was their daughter Annie, (aged 14), and sons James, (aged 17 and an ordinary agricultural labourer), and Thomas, (age 23 and a Railway Labourer)
There is no match at all on the 1911 Census for England and Wales, (18/01/09), although not all the Counties are loaded as yet.
www.1911census.co.uk/search/tnaform.aspx?x=252057341
However there is a James Hardesty on the Salhouse village roll of honour which notes that he is the son of Mr and Mrs E Hardesty of Brick Kiln Farm, Woodbastwick.
I assume this is probably the James referred to above as aged 17 and an ordinary agricultural labourer, which makes it surprising that he isn’t commemorated in Woodbastwick.

His next of kin is his father William, still living at Woodbastwick. His service number was 22279. He enlisted on the 4.8.1915 at Maribyrong, Victoria initialy in an Infantry Battalion but was transferred in May 1916 with the trade qualification of Shoeing Smith and was assigned to the 23rd Howitzer Brigade, 109th Battery. He sailed for England in May 1916, arriving July 1916 and then on to France where he was assigned to the 8th Field Artillery Brigade, gaining promotion to Corporal Farrier. He was repeatedly hospitalised in 1918 with furuncolosis (Boils). He was discharged from the Army on the 30/11/1919. At his pension medical board, I think the doctor has written that his military related injuries are as a result of “scabies and gassing” - typical doctor’s handwriting, so look for yourself.

There is only one Benjamin Wrench recorded on the 1901 Census for England and Wales, and he is 7 years old and living at Spixworth Road, Old Catton, Norfolk. He was living there with his parents, George, (age 33, a brick kiln burner from Norwich) and Alice, (aged 28 and from Old Catton.) Also resident is sister May, (aged 8)
The 17 year old Benjamin is resident in the district of St Faiths, Norfolk at the time of the 1911 Census.

Driver Bertie Woodcock
R.A.S.C (M.T)
The most likely Bertie Woodcock on the 1901 census was aged 1 and living in the hamlet of Waterloo, near Horsham St Faiths. His father William, aged 52 and from St Faiths, was a farmer. His mother Annie, was aged 32 and from Norwich. Also resident were brothers Ashley, (aged 3) and Sidney, (aged 5). There is an S Woodcock listed on the St Faiths Village Memorial, but as there are several Woodcock familys in the village I’ve not been able to conclusively prove it is Sidney.
There are two 12 year old Bertie Woodcock’s on the 1911 census, both registered in the District of St Faiths.

Ordinary Seaman Samuel Woods
Royal Navy
The 1901 Census has 1 year old Samuel living at Primrose Corner, Woodbastwick, with his parents, Frederick Woods, (a 34 year old Woodman from Salhouse), Sallie M Woods (aged 26 and from Salhouse) as well as sisters Ida V, (aged 3) and and Lilian T, (aged 4) Ida and Lilian both have Salhouse as their place of birth, so the Woods were fairly recent arrivals in the village.

Private Hubert Youngman
R.A.M.C
There are two Hubert Youngman’s listed on the 1901 Census for England & Wales. One was aged three, had been born at Sidcup Kent and was now resident Bexley. The other was aged 24 and was Head Groom at a Norfolk Stud. He was currently living at 3 Church Lane Cottages, Heacham, and was born at Holt. He was living at this address with his wife, Maude, (aged 24 and from Wimbotsham, Norfolk) and their daughter Lilian K, (aged 1).
The 34 year old Hubert was registered in the district of Smallburgh by the time of the 1911 Census.

CHAPTER 12:
THE WITCH BY MOOR AND WOOD AND SHORE
The “secret, black and midnight hags” are waiting. He alights from his horse, his heel squelching into boggy ground. Behind him, a mosaic of moss and peaty pools stretches away to the horizon, buffeted by wind. There is not a tree in sight; the acid soil and exposure forbid the growth of anything above knee-height. Beside the pool at his feet, the moss draws water, a thirsty sponge plastered over the stone, inches thick, the air above it slick with moisture. Further out into the water, flowers hang above the surface like heads of nodding puppets, the stems blushing as if freshly bruised. Beneath the water, the plant bears little bladders, like shed reptiles’ scales adhering to the leaves. Crustaceans swim between the submerged stems, and the bladders gape like mouths, toothed with bristles. One touch of a branched antenna, and the valve trap springs and expands. Sucked inside, the crustacean struggles in vain as the sealed door slams, its prison walls exuding the juice of death. It may share its death-cell with an assortment of other partially digested insects and crustaceans, some of them still alive and threshing their appendages ever more slowly. The man knows nothing of these struggles between microscopic titans; he turns up the hill towards drier ground, where the first clumps of heather struggle to retain a foothold. His eyes are set on a triple cairn at the top of the hill, so he does not notice the plant underfoot, with its pale, curling leaves, sticky with their own exudations. Midges convulse in their death throes, their wings hopelessly glued to the surface of the leaves. There are other diminutive plants here too, with spatulate leaves bristling with appendages, all oozing a substance as sticky and seductive as toffee. A fly struggles on one of them, adhering haphazardly by one of its bulging compound eyes, doomed to buzz itself into its own minor oblivion. As it does so, the other tentacles on the leaf bend inwards to further ensnare the victim. The man pays them no heed, for he is heading up to the higher, drier heath, his mind reeling with the import of his meeting with the minions of Hecate. A wildcat yowls and bares its teeth at him, arching its back and twitching its grey bushy tail, before disappearing amongst the ling; no domestic cat – perhaps it is Graymalkin. He is Macbeth, King of Scotland, bent on his own struggle for survival, anticipating his assignation with three witches, who have already divined that they will meet him on this “blasted heath”.
Had Macbeth not been so oblivious to these struggles on a smaller scale, he might have knelt, and learnt much from the wortlore of bogland plants. The spasmodic death throes of their insect victims might have led him more quickly to his nihilistic conclusion that life “is a tale told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing.” The crustacean-devouring water plant was Bladderwort (Utricularia), and its terrestrial cousin with the scroll-like leaves was Butterwort (Pinguicula), so named because the digestive juices exuded by the leaves are a sort of herbal rennet. Indeed, the leaves may be added to cream in order to form butter, provided, of course, one picks the dying flies off them first. Beside this was the Sundew (Drosera), perhaps the most easily recognisable of the bogland carnivorous plants. Moorland folklore insists that the Sundew and Butterwort, together with the liliaceous, yellow flowered Bog Asphodel, are injurious to sheep and cattle, causing weakness in the bones. Although the latter is indeed poisonous to cattle, it is probably the moorland environment itself which causes the problem, since the soil, and everything that grows upon it, is calcium deficient. Paradoxically, it is also said on Colonsay that cows that have eaten Butterwort are safe from supernatural maladies and elvish arrows, and they have at times been used in conjunction with whin and juniper as a charm against maleficient witchcraft. On the Isle of Man, Sundew is traditionally used as a love-charm by hiding the sticky rosettes in the clothing of one’s intended lover, but the token might just as easily be used as a signal for a clandestine assignation. Another plant of the upland bogs, the Bog Myrtle is used as an insect-repellant, emetic and vermifuge, and in the 1860s it will figure as the main ingredient of a regenerative beer made by the landlady of the ‘Black Horse’ in Ampleforth, Yorkshire. The glands in its leaves secrete a wax which can be made into fragrant candles.
Macbeth will not pause on his way up the hill to chew on the stalk of the Heath Rush, for he is reliably informed that it causes hare-lips. Nor will he stoop to rip up the “tormenting root” of Tormentil, which jilted lovers burn at midnight on Friday to compel their lovers to return. He is soon knee-deep in heather, whose pink or purple flowers are said to be stained with Pictish blood shed in battle. It has long been used for tanning leather, it makes a refreshing dry ale, and its bell-shaped flowers are tempting to bees. Robert Graves makes an obscure and tantalising reference to an Irish tale of the goddess Garbh Ogh, collected by Dean Swift at Lough Crew. She haunted the heather moors, riding in a cart drawn by elks, accompanied by ten giant hounds, all with birds’ names, and she subsisted on venison milk and eagles’ breasts. Perhaps she was a winter goddess, for with the flowering of the heather, she built herself a triple cairn of stones and settled amongst the blooms to die, like a spent queen bee. Other parts of the moor may be covered with Bilberries, also known as Blueberries or Whortleberries, a delicacy picked in Ireland in anticipation of the feast of Lughnasadh.
The calcium deficiency in these acid soils limits the range of fauna Macbeth is likely to encounter. A stag may cross his path, the whites of his eyes visible as he hurls himself away from the likely hunter. A hen harrier may wheel overhead. There are other moorland birds too: the “treacherous” lapwing, as Chaucer called her, roused from her nest into flop-winged flight. She lets out a succession of pies and weeps the further she flies, the wan sky catching her silhouette. Now she wings a lap around the lone man, leaving her little ones behind and tempting him to follow her. Should he tread amongst them, they will scatter, spindle-shanked and peeping, with eggshells on their heads. In the distance, there may be the cackle of a grouse, prey to the hen harrier. At another time, Macbeth might have come upon the “lek”, a communal display ground used by the polygamous male grouse to attract mates. For now, the grouse pecks at the heather, scuds over sodden sphagnum bogs, bubbling and crooning to himself, and eluding the shadow of man. Since the reign of the gun-hung gamekeeper has not yet begun, he must also elude the tooth and claw of the native wildcat if he is to dance in his lek next year.
When Macbeth reaches the cairn on the flattened summit, the witches will ply him with a hallucinogenic brew. The ingredients sound disgusting, but most of them are code-words for herbs gathered somewhere in the lowlands. Shakespearean tragic heroes are fond of such places in a crisis: King Lear and his Fool came to such a place when he was insane, and learned wisdom. On his way back down the hill, a less preoccupied man might stop at a solitary rowan tree by a stone wall – the only standing tree for miles. He has need of it, for its white flowers and red berries make it a goddess tree, a tree of inspiration. He might need to pick his way through the gorse, for here it has not been piled and burnt, and were he of more tender disposition, he might repeat the old adage, “Kissing’s out of fashion when the gorse is out of bloom.” Little does he know that the witches themselves will retire to this thorny bower if ever they are pursued. But his thoughts are on matters of state: trivial, irrelevant questions to bring to this ageless place. Of course, in the end, the witches tell Macbeth nothing that the bladderwort in the bog, the wildcat in his path, the harrier in the welkin, or the bleak and pitiless moor itself could not have told him: the truth about himself.
*
Of course, she is quite as beautiful as all of the other young Russian girls throughout history who have one day become wives to a Tsar: a simple, uncomplicated beauty which is scorned in her own house, but would be sufficient to light up the throne room in her future palace. But today, her brow is knitted in furrows and her body trembles as she runs. In her hand she clutches a little wooden doll, her magical saviour in times of crises, and her knuckles whiten for fear of losing it. In the distance, dimly visible between the moonlit boles of the birches, there glows a great arc of paired lights: a dull, greenish glow that sets her teeth on edge. Everything within her is telling her to seek the safety of darkness in the woods rather than hurry towards the ring of light, for she knows why the lights glow from paired orbs: they are human skulls, glowing in the sockets with a magical luminescence. Beyond the skulls, which are mounted on stakes around the perimeter of a fence knitted from human bones, there stands a wretched little hut – or rather, it doesn’t stand exactly – it prances and scratches about in the dust, for it is mounted on a pair of grotesquely oversized hen’s legs. A thin plume of smoke rises from the chimney of this hovel, and momentarily obscures the moon, for its occupant is at home. She is the Baba Yaga, a hideous hag who always puts her guests to the test, and eats them if she finds them wanting. No doubt she is also the lingering folk memory of a dark goddess, for when she is not flaying the skin from warriors’ backs, she teaches her initiates the hard way, and they return to their own land filled with arcane wisdom. The young girl catches at the stitch in her side with her spare hand, and looks ahead in fear. She is Wassilissa the Beautiful, and whether she likes it or not, she is the Baba Yaga’s next initiate into the mysteries of the forest – or, if she is unworthy, into the mysteries of the cauldron, as viewed from the inside.
When Wassilissa overcomes her fear and presents herself to the Baba Yaga, she is taken into the squalid hut and imprisoned there. On successive days, she is given a series of increasingly absurd and impossible tasks which need not concern us here, and whilst her magically animated wooden doll is wiping away Wassilissa’s tears and solving all her problems, the Baba Yaga has locked the door behind her, climbed into her giant iron mortar, and is now flying out across the woods, rowing along through the air with her pestle, and sweeping away her trail with her kitchen broom. Some say she is off to fight magical battles in the chthonic underworld, but more likely she is off to seek her own wisdom from the woodlands that surround her home – or, given her novel mode of transvection, those farther afield.
Any normal mortal who explores a wood is likely to begin by searching for helleborines, twayblades or wood anemones in the spring and summer, or fungi in the autumn. However, for the Baba Yaga, like many other denizens of the forest, the odyssey starts not on the woodland floor, but in the treetops. Many of the birch trees in her own woodland carry “witches’ brooms” – bunched and twiggy growths which hang from the branches. To the uninitiated, these look like clumps of mistletoe; in fact, they are galls caused by a fungus which persists from year to year, sometimes producing brooms a metre in diameter, and comprising three or four hundred twigs. A single birch tree may carry nearly a hundred such excrescences at the end of its comparatively short life span of a century. Amongst the plethora of galls which afflict the neighbouring, longer-lived oak trees, one of the commonest is the “oak apple”: a rose-pink or yellow spongy ball of abnormal plant tissue which is the tree’s defensive response to the insertion of parthenogenetic eggs into the developing bud by a wingless female cynipid wasp. Every oak apple is pleurilocular, containing around thirty chambers, each a cradle for a developing grub which gorges its bloated body on juices from the tree. In late summer, the imagoes gouge their way out, leaving the oak apples riddled with tiny holes. In Britain after the Restoration of Charles II, these curious plant-tumours were worn by Royalists on May 29th, Oak Apple Day, to commemorate his birthday and return from exile. In school, children who failed to wear the regulation oak-sprig were whipped with nettles. The oak was the ideal tree to symbolise the Royalist cause, given the popular rumour that the king hid himself from his Puritan pursuers inside a hollow oak tree at Boscopel. Although the fashionably sceptical Professor Ronald Hutton has persistently denied that the celebrations might pre-date the Civil War, many have concluded that Oak Apple Day is the remnant of a pagan fertility rite. Certainly, it has gained its own neo-Pagan associations in recent centuries. When Roger Deakin attended Oak Apple Day in the Royal Forest of Grovely in Wiltshire, he found a whole range of contradictions in the involvement of conservative country people in obviously pagan rituals, apparently supported by the church, and despite the Royalist history of the rites, deeply influenced by socialist responses to the Enclosure Acts. Oak Apple Day was an “annual reassertion of rights to collect wood” on common land. In the midst of this controversy, however, no one appears to have asked the obvious question, which is why oak apples specifically should be worn. It seems a strange – or, for those with republican sympathies, oddly appropriate – symbol of monarchy: a sham fruit, a spongy cancer writhing inside with parasitic grubs. As a symbol of fertility, however, it is potent: it reminds me of nothing so much as the ontological eccentricities of the sixteenth century miller Menocchio, resurrected for posterity by that admirable historian Carlo Ginzburg, who maintained that the origin of the universe lay in putrefaction: the world was a piece of cheese from which worms spontaneously arose. In any case, it is doubtful whether the Royalists realised that the wasps responsible for this ambiguous symbol have a curious and cryptic double life-cycle. In July, the winged imagoes mate, and the females penetrate the soil, for the next generation will be infants suckling on subsided sap, parasites not of growing buds, but of hidden roots in the humus. A descent into the underworld indeed.
In late July, the oak leaves are heavily mined by tiny caterpillars which live beneath the epidermis, most of them larvae of micro-moths. The Baba Yaga’s flight through the canopy is the more pleasurable because of the Purple Emperor butterflies, largest of the Lepidoptera in northern climes. The male will choose the tallest oak for his throne, and will only be tempted to the forest floor by things white and glittering, or by rotting carcasses which he can probe with his hungry tongue. Perhaps the Baba Yaga will follow him: he is unlikely to find the carcase of a badger, for they like to intern their dead within their own setts, until their skulls, forever interlocked with their jawbones, are carelessly unearthed when the dwellings require extension. It is too late, too, for the flowers of the early purple orchid, whose tubers were once the source of the invigorating, semen-thick, starchy drink known as salop, a favourite refreshment of Victorian labourers, and a renowned aphrodisiac. It was once said that there were enough purple orchids growing in Cobham Park to pleasure every seaman’s wife in Rochester. Perhaps this was another form of sympathetic magic: the twin tubers of orchids look like bollocks. The Purple Emperor flits on, over those withered stems, and alights instead on the corpse of a roebuck, already rotting. Its juices are rank and leaching into the soil, attended by burying beetles and maggots; the eye sockets are sunken. As the butterfly’s tongue begins to probe, the Baba Yaga surely pays her respects to this horned one of the woods. Modern humans think of deer as the enemies of the forest, for they chew the shoots of newly coppiced trees. Whilst this is certainly true, there ought to be room for gratitude: a deer-filled wood is a bluebell wood, for the deer clear enough foliage for these plants to gain their requisite sunlight. More importantly, in the Middle Ages, when forests were royal preserves, the trees were maintained as cover for the deer; without the deer, the woods would have been felled for pasture, and there would have been nowhere for Robin Hood to hide.
At the edges of the clearings in our wood of oak and birch, the smaller trees flourish. A hazel bends over a stream, waiting to drop its wisdom-filled nuts into the water, where, perhaps, the salmon of knowledge may swallow them. The spindle tree grows here too, and when all is gaunt in winter, her rose-pink, poisonous berries will shrink to reveal orange seeds: joyful punctuations of the prevailing gloom. No doubt the Baba Yaga has cut the spindle to make wands, for its white and lightweight timber is admirably suited. Indeed, it is said that a despairing seamstress who thrusts her spindle (derived from this tree) into the ground, will soon be delighted to perceive it taking root, producing greenish-white flowers and fruit as red as roses. No wonder the archetypal witch is often depicted with distaff and spindle.
These woods are the haunt of mustelids: not just the badger, but also the stoat and weasel. In winter, the stoat becomes the ermine, whose snow-white coat is a long and undulating sentence ending in a black full-stop: the tip of the tail. These tail tips, sewn with alarming profusion into trimmings of royal gowns, are the black wisps in the fluffy whitenesses which adorn the necks of mediaeval kings and queens, but in its natural state, the stoat is a wily creature with whom any witch should identify. Gamekeepers hate them, and cleave their skulls whenever they can find them, for they are crafty of mind and supple of body, and can take down creatures many times their size. The weasel is even smaller: a beady-eyed, ripple-bodied killing machine with teeth like needles. The late twelfth century Breton poet, Marie de France, who was a champion of misunderstood lovers and werewolves alike, has been one of the few authors (even the enlightened Kenneth Grahame fails in this regard) to ascribe noble qualities to the weasel. In her extraordinary lay known as Eliduc, the hero’s lover lies dead, and his longsuffering wife feels for him in his despondency. She sits weeping beside the bier of the woman who has been bedding her husband, when all at once, a weasel runs past, only to be struck dead by a stick-throwing servant standing nearby. Moments later, a second weasel, the first one’s mate, comes and finds her dead. He runs outside and picks a flower with his teeth, and uses it to revive her. In what must qualify as one of the most selfless acts in all romantic literature, Eliduc’s wife retrieves the flower, resurrects her husband’s adulterous lover, and graciously retires to a convent, and the weasels, one hopes, live on to perpetuate their species.
The mixed woodlands of oak, birch and ash lie in the lowlands. The beechwoods of the chalky uplands are quite different, and the Baba Yaga would fly far to find them. Mature beeches allow little sunlight to filter down to the forest floor, and as a result, the vegetation is sparse. One flower, however, has found a niche, and its perspicacity must arouse the admiration of any witch. The bird’s nest orchid contains no chlorophyll, and as a consequence, it is not green, but yellow and fleshy, with a purplish tinge. The flowers are not gaudy, but brown, designed to attract flies, and the plant does not photosynthesise, for it is saprophytic, deriving its nutrients not from the sun but from an underground fungus with which it shares a symbiotic relationship – and the fungus, in turn, is dependent on the humus provided by the rotting foliage of the beeches. Every year, the orchid flowers by the bole of the beech, unless perchance its underground rhizomes encounter a stone. Should they do so, the plant will flower underground. A model of perverse and persevering persistence, it is surprising that the bird’s nest orchid does not play a bigger role in folklore; indeed, the only explanation for this is the fact that it is hardly ever noticed, for without green colouration, plants are nearly always presumed to be dead.
It would be impossible for the Baba Yaga to frequent these woodlands without encountering a fox, and it would be unlikely indeed that she should fail to identify with him. Since the Middle Ages, the French have understood the fox most intimately, immortalising him as Reynard, the trickster who always has the last laugh. Sometimes he disguises himself as a monk, tonsuring the unsuspecting wolf with a cauldron of boiling water. On other occasions, he shams his own death, enticing birds within reach of his snapping jaws. Chaucer lets him sink his teeth into the neck of the narcissistic cockerel Chantecler, and in the mediaeval French romances, he even creates a martyr, Coupée the chicken, whose earthly life was so cruelly cut short. He presides laughingly over the castration of his rival Tybert the cat by a fornicating priest, and personally engineers the trapping of Bruin the Bear inside a cleft oak. Ever victorious, Reynard is the archetypal guiser. If you don’t believe it, seek him out yourself in a summer glade where the rabbits are chewing cowslips: he sidles along, respectfully distant, and all at once he is turning somersaults as though he has gone mad, biting the dirt and threshing at his own tail with his hindlegs. The rabbits are mesmerised by this vision of a predator turned insane; slowly they creep closer. Reynard’s game is an eloquent essay in predatory hypnosis. One rabbit strays too near, and the muscles ripple on the fox’s muzzle, the canines bared. The pupils in the yellow irises congeal into sharp lozenges of dark. Suddenly, the fox-fool is a lethal machine, and the rabbit curls, screaming in agony in the fox’s jaws. The Baba Yaga is not dissimilar in her dealings with her own victims.
When winter comes, the broadleaved woods are bare, and only hollies and the occasional yew can relieve the monotony. At this time, no doubt, the Baba Yaga steers for the coniferous woodlands, eschewing only those of larch, which alone among the cone-bearing trees are deciduous. She seeks a creature every witch should revere. Of course, if we have had any contact whatever with modern environmental movements, we in Britain are immediately sure what creature she is after. It must be the red squirrel – that totemic creature whose imprint ensures fundraising success for every wildlife charity. Ousted from the woodlands of the south of our islands by the American grey – so this myth insists – the red squirrel persists in the Scotch Pines of the Highlands, staunch to the end like some latter-day Dad’s Army. We conveniently forget that it is we who introduced the grey squirrel, so that we can demonise it, and that it is we in our unprecedented population explosions of the twenty-first century who turn our woodlands into minute islands in the sea of homogeneity, dooming the less resilient species to extinction. But the Baba Yaga does not seek the red squirrel. She is after something far more elusive: a lissom-limbed creature whose every movement is sinuous, smearing pungent scents on the bark of the pine bough. His pelt is the warmest brown: dark chocolate laced with white, and had he not been persecuted to near extinction in our country, the grey squirrel would never have extended its range. Should the fresh meat run out, he is resilient enough to resort to caterpillars, or even bilberries. These days, it takes a witch to find him, led onward by the pricking of her thumbs, and even then she must crane her neck, or mount once more to the treetops in her mortar, for this creature scampers where most men scorn to look. Furtive, trembling with the pulse of a hungry metabolism, the pine marten claws the bough. Like the eyes of Wassilissa’s doll, its pupils are aglow.
*
The path beneath my feet is an ancient wickerwork of the roots of elms, and the ivied trunks beside me are columns in a cathedral of green, for Dutch Elm Disease has never ravaged the trees on the Isles of Scilly. Chiff-chaffs and wrens, roof-boss creatures come to life, peer between the leaves with beady eyes, and beside the raised path the little fenland supports a hundred tiny chapels of hemlock water dropwort, twinkling woodbines, and green and fleshy liverworts on gleaming walls of soil. A choir of hoverflies is singing, a tracery of elm twigs arching above them. I am on my way through the shrine to nature known as Holy Vale, heading towards Porth Hellick, a bay gouged into the granite on the eastern side of the island of St. Mary’s. As I emerge from the fenland, where herons and egrets curl their harpoon-headed necks like question-marks, the dromedary-shaped geological feature known as Camel Rock looms in front of me. Shallow sea-water laps over the bladder-wrack as I make my way past it, and out in the deeper water, I glimpse the arched Roman-nose of a grey seal, his nostrils flared to drink in the air. Suddenly, he submerges, and I time the interval before his re-emergence, not daring to hold my own breath. He has exhaled before diving, every pocket of air expelled from shrunken alveoli, his bloodstream constricted, for this reduces his buoyancy. His blood is almost black in colour, for it is packed with haemoglobin in order to carry additional reserves of oxygen during the dive. Three, four, five minutes, and his head is bobbing up ahead, like a stub-nosed buoy with whiskers. Gulls skim the sea’s dark undulations. A cormorant dives, and turnstones cry. The sun turns the sea mercurial, and the shoreline is a mirror with a glazed meniscus. As the old seal breasts the surge, I almost hear the slop of mercury, and then the sun shifts, the sea a green glaze crusted with foam. The boulders beside the path are mounded with unsalvaged disjecta: a winkle, a pebble, a cormorant’s skull.
Beyond Camel Rock, an ancient stairway has been cut into the stone. Ahead of me, the cliff forms a great overhang, known locally as Clapper Rock. One can imagine it rapping like a gargantuan castanet on a windy night, and in the past I have taken children here on bivouacs, and they have scared each other sleepless with tales of the ghosts of suicides. As I mount the stairs, the light intensifies; the stones seem to be vibrating. Spectral figures climb the stairs ahead of me, shawled and murmuring, disappearing behind a curve in the rocky cleft. I know who they are. In 1750, Robert Heath wrote the first ever book about the Isles of Scilly, and in it he described a collective of Healing Aunts whose traditions had been handed down from time immemorial. “They are all good Botanists,” he tells us, “and have added a great many Herbs to their Catalogue… Their Systems and Hypotheses are to help those in Distress for Pity’s sake rather than for Profit.” In 1750, the most senior amongst them was Sarah Jenkins, a wise-woman and midwife of considerable local standing. That she was also a witch seems very likely: in her youth she certainly knew of the fairies which inhabited the chambered cairn of Buzza Hill near Hugh Town, whose “nightly Pranks, aerial Gambols, and Cockel-shell Abodes are now quite unknown.” Supposedly, they were “charm’d” or “conjur’d out of the islands” by cunning-men from Cornwall, but surely I have seen them myself, belted with leather of Laminaria, their menfolk in britches of kelp, their women skirted with Porphyra, with purses of bladder-wrack, stitched with strands of Chorda. I am sure that to this day they dance to tunes of fiddles fashioned out of the skulls of guillemots, and beat on urchin drums.
I think I know where the ghosts of the Healing Aunts are going. They are heading across the heath towards the beach of Pelistry, beyond which lies Toll’s Island, a grassy clump of rock connected to the beach by a sand-bank at low tide. In the eighteenth century, Toll’s Island would have hung under a pall of noisome smoke, for it was covered with kelp-pits tended by wizened old ladies puffing perversely on blackened clay pipes. The kelp was burned to a fine ash and then exported for use in glass-making, a meagre source of revenue for the poverty-stricken island folk. Beyond the kelp-pits stands Pellew’s Redoubt, a relic of the Civil War, from which not even these islands, twenty-eight miles into the Atlantic, were entirely free. At the far end, the sea slops and gurgles against the rocks, and it is here, I am sure, that the Healing Aunts are heading. The rockpools here are a candy-shop of colours: Coralina plants, articulated like puppets and pink as musk, kelps, oar shaped, made of chocolate leather, and edible sea lettuces, pistachio green. I bend down and dip my hands in the water. There is the sideways scuttle of a retreating crab, a frightened goby’s blinkless eye, the urchin’s serried army bristling. There are limpets and pixie cups and slowly moving snails clearing trails in sand. Despite the turmoil and pounding of the sea, delicate anemones spread their tentacles, or lie above the waterline like globules of blind red jelly.
Here the Healing Aunts will find Dillisk, a membrane-thin ribbon of red seaweed known to the Scots as Dulse, Rhodymenia palmata. Shawled in ragged wool, Sarah Jenkins bends hunchbacked over the rocks, plucks with scrabbling fingers the limp Dillisk from the stone, or rolls up her grubby sleeve, and picks it where it swells in swirling ribbons underwater. It clings to her skin as though it has been smeared with bacon grease. Rich in iodine, Dillisk has long been an essential component of the diet of coastal peoples, and during the Irish potato blight, it doubtless saved lives. Hanging in the kitchen, it withers at the edges, grows a powdery crust of salt, and stiffens like red parchment, until wet weather leaves it hanging flaccid: it is, in fact, the world’s first barometer. Combined with sea lettuce and mixed with oatmeal, it is fried to make nutritious cakes. The seaweed known as “Irish moss” grows here too, its fronds rainbowed with bioluminescence under water. Medicinally, it is an anticoagulant, and a treatment for bronchitis, bladder infections and kidney irritation; it is also an effective gelling agent. The seaweeds are used here for fertilisers too, and wrack-cutters were equipped with special scythes for the purpose of harvesting the larger plants. Other seaweeds had folkloric significance: Viking descendents on Iceland were afraid of a hideous child-eating troll-woman named Grýla, whose coat was made of seaweed, and whose fifteen tails were made of the knotted wrack, Ascophyllum nodosum. In addition to her child-devouring cat, she had a string of husbands, none of whom could bear her carnivorous habits for very long, until at last she found a sort of happiness with Leppalúði, who was able to quell his nausea for long enough to father a multitude of offspring upon her, all of whom preyed upon human children. Similarly, Norse burial grounds on the Orkneys were later identified as homes of the Trows, semi-aquatic monsters who preyed on human souls. According to Jo Ben, writing in the early seventeenth century, the Stronsay Trows “very often go with the women there”, and they are clad in red seaweed, with horse-like bodies. A Trow’s penis, too, “is like that of a horse”, and the testicles are particularly large. At the opposite extreme of Britain, Scilly too is covered with cairns and tombs, and it seems reasonable to suppose that in former ages, these also had their fair complement of seaweed-clad monsters. On a windy night on Scilly, it is difficult to believe that they do not exist.
No doubt the Healing Aunts did not confine their ministry to St Mary’s. There are five inhabited islands in Scilly today, but in their day, Samson too was inhabited by two wind-worn families, the Woodcocks and the Webbers, who eked out an existence by fishing and kelp-burning before they were evicted in the nineteenth century by the lord of Tresco, Augustus Smith, who built a deer-park on the island, only to find that the deer scorned the place and swam back to Tresco. It is certain that there were magical traditions – not all of them entirely benevolent – on the other islands too, for the well of St. Warna on St. Agnes was once filled with bent pins, each designed to cause a shipwreck, and St. Agnes herself is represented in paintings with a stang, luring tall ships onto the rocks. However, today I will follow the Healing Aunts back to Hugh Town, and take their spectral boat to Samson. On the way, a sandwich tern is above me, slouch-winged and still in the air as a strained lever. All about the boat now, they hover, their necks cocked like flintlocks, their stretched wings bracketing the wind, the watchspring wound, near to breaking. The flintlock springs, and one bird makes a soundless plunge, harpoon-billed and hollow boned. For a moment, it is a stab of white cleaving the water. A sand-eel writhes, and the tern bursts shimmer-feathered back into the air. Riding this swell in winter, I might meet the Immer Loon, or Great Northern Diver, a bird whose ancestors once swum with ichthyosaurs.
There is no jetty on Samson: the spectral boat beaches on the sand of Bar Point at low tide. The beach is a white hump, with a single line of weed. At the top, there is dune grass bleached by brine, and in the spring, pyramidal orchids bloom in profusion. On Dune Hill, the first of Samson’s two granite humps, there is a string of cairns from the days when Scilly was known as Ennor. There is yellow furze, gnarled ling, and a petering path, lined with thrushes’ anvils, each with its own snail-shell cairn. Always, there are the wind-flayed sternums of gulls, rock-pipits, and once fearless wrens, the bleached wings still attached. I will follow the Aunts down the hill, towards the spume-worn Neck, and enter this empty, roofless home to my right, stooping beneath the rafter that would have been. There is an uncanny, unfathomable silence. I can almost hear the wheeze of a Woodcock, his clay pipe clenched in stained incisors. The air here is thick, and it is hard to breathe, for there is an emptiness, like the orbs of a gull’s skull. Up the slope towards South Hill, another house beckons me, armpit deep in foxgloves and red-campions, and fringed with nettles - nitrogen-loving plants which frequent the past abodes of human beings. The hard-hewn lintel is perched precarious as a bird, and inside, the low hearth is lichen-bearded. There is the same silence, the same thickness, the same constriction of the throat; I know I am breathing ghosts, not air. I half-hear the sigh of a Webber, worn from kelp-burning, aching to rest her legs beside the fire that would have been. And now I am back out into the vacancies of brown bracken, walking by bluebells, grown wild from some garden long-gone.
The silences of Samson, here at the Atlantic end of the British Isles, hold within them the profoundest lesson a witch can learn. We humans are transitory: we are walking ghosts. Our hearths encrust; our lintels fall. Our clay pipes lie crushed in the strand. Our remnants are chipped flints, stone bottle stoppers, plastic flotsam. Our broken boats encrust with goose-barnacles. The Healing Aunts knew this: they have brought me here so I may know it too. The wounds we inflict on nature are skin deep; it will master us in the end. If you don’t believe me, take the tourist-boat to Samson – the modern Scillonians will gladly take your money. Sit up there on South Hill and listen. Hear their yawls and cries. Glance down at their mottled eggs on the peaty pathways. Samson does not belong to human beings. It is owned by gulls, and the ghosts of all that would have been.

Bodies The Exhibition is a controversial exhibition showcasing preserved human bodies dissected to display bodily systems. That's a real human body in the picture.
You may want to read this from:
mysite.verizon.net/vzexqyla/anti-bodies-virtual-picket-li...
You may be convinced that BODIES...the Exhibition is immoral, unethical and surrounded by murky issues. But some people may be difficult to persuade. Below is a list of incorrect / misleading / worrisome statements that you may hear, followed by explanations of the truth regarding these topics.
________________________________________
Incorrect information: All of the people in the exhibit gave their consent and/or donated their bodies to science.
The truth: None of the people in BODIES...the Exhibition gave their consent to be exhibited or plastinated. None of them donated their bodies to 'medicine' or to 'science'.
Most people do not realize that there are several different plastinated corpse exhibits traveling around the world. While each presents bodies in a similar way, the source of the bodies for each exhibit is not the same.
Gunther von Hagens (BODYWORLDS' creator) states that all of the people displayed in the BODYWORLDS exhibits gave consent to be plastinated and exhibited. However, top Management members at Premier Exhibitions Inc. (promoter of BODIES...the Exhibition) admit up-front that NONE of the people in BODIES...the Exhibition gave consent to be plastinated or exhibited - this would be an impossibility because the corpses were unidentified and unclaimed and were acquired by the plastination plant from the Chinese police.
For reputable sources regarding this topic, see The Provenance of BODIES' Corpses and the Possible Connections with the Falun Gong section on The Issues page of this website.
________________________________________
Incorrect information: All of the specimens in the Exhibition were obtained by Premier Exhibitions through the Dalian Medical University plastination laboratories in the People's Republic of China.
The truth: All of the specimens are controlled or leased by Dalian Hoffen Bio Technique Company Limited.
According to Premier's 2006 annual report,
"THIS EXHIBITION TOUR AGREEMENT is entered into as of the 24th day of January, 2006 by and between Premier Exhibitions 2005-ATL, Inc. (a corporation organized under the laws of the State of Nevada and having its principal place of business at 3340 Peachtree Rd. NE, Atlanta, Georgia 30326 (“PREMIER”), and Dr. Hong-Jin Sui (“Dr. Sui”), a designer and supplier of all specimens referred to herein, and Dr. Shuyan Wang President of Dalian Hoffen Bio Technique Company Limited collectively referred to as (“DHBTL”) having a place of business in Dalian, China."
To read the full agreement, see: www.secinfo.com/dsvr4.v71s.d.htm
________________________________________
Misleading Information: The identity of each human body displayed in the exhibition is strictly confidential.
The Truth: In fact, the bodies displayed in the exhibition are unidentified.
The term 'confidential' implies that someone knows the identities of the bodies. Premier Exhibitions, Inc. has consistently stated up-front that all of the bodies displayed in the exhibition were unidentified and unclaimed. Premier is renting the cadavers and organs from China's Dalian Medical University, which acquired the unidentified, unclaimed corpses from police.
This fact is particularly troubling because in China, people who practice Falun Gong (a spiritual practice that is banned by the government) often refuse to reveal their names when arrested, in order to protect their families. Therefore, there is a large prison population of unidentified people, who remain 'unidentified' after death.
For reputable sources on this topic, see The Kilgour-Matas Reports and The Provenance of Bodies' Corpses sections on The Issues page of this website.
________________________________________
Incorrect information: It is standard practice throughout the United States for unclaimed and unidentified bodies to be used by medical schools for educational purposes.
The truth: The majority of bodies used by medical schools come from consenting donors.
The use of unidentified bodies in U.S. medical school anatomy labs is not regulated at the Federal level. Therefore, there are few national statistics available with respect to this topic. However, a 2004 article in JAMA (the Journal of the American Medical Association), states that only 20% of US and Canadian medical schools still used unclaimed bodies in their anatomy laboratories.
Some states have laws which require all unidentified / unclaimed corpses to be buried.
For reputable sources regarding this topic, see The Legality of Plastinated-Corpse Exhibits section on The Issues page of this website.
________________________________________
Worrisome Statement: Sworn affidavits, taken in the United States, have been provided declaring the legal and moral acquisition of the specimens within BODIES…The Exhibition. Affidavits have been provided by both Dr. Roy Glover, Chief Medical Advisor for BODIES…The Exhibition; and Dr. Hong Jin Sui, professor of anatomy and President of Dalian Medical University Plastination Co. LTD.
The Truth: There has been no independent investigation regarding the provenance of the corpses in BODIES...the Exhibition. The affidavits that Premier presents as assurances with respect to the corpses' origins are provided by the following two men:
Roy Glover - Roy Glover is not a medical doctor although, in this context, he is almost always referred to as "Dr. Roy Glover, Chief Medical Advisor." Glover holds a Ph.D. in Anatomy and is currently working as the Spokesman for the BODIES exhibit. He states that "the head of the lab at Dalian [Sui Hong Jin] is a longtime, trusted friend."
Sui Hong Jin - Sui Hong Jin is a former business associate of Gunther von Hagens, the inventor of the plastination process and the creator of the BODYWORLDS exhibits. Sui has faced allegations in the past of providing von Hagens with prisoners' corpses. He is currently the President of Dalian Medical University Plastination Co. LTD. which is supplying the plastinated corpses to Premier for their exhibits.
For reputable sources on this topic, see The Corpse Supplier and The Provenance of BODIES' Corpses sections on The Issues page of this website.
_______________________________________
Misleading information: The human bodies are being used appropriately, in accordance with domestic and international law.
The truth: There are virtually no international, U.S. federal or state laws regulating this type of exhibit.
Even where there are relevant laws, it is not clear that they are being followed. In Tampa FL, Premier Exhibitions, Inc. and the Museum of Science and Industry disregarded the rulings of the state Anatomical Board and the state Attorney General that would have prevented the exhibit from opening, and opened the exhibit two days early, before the ruling could be enforced.
If 'domestic law' refers to Chinese domestic law, note that the term 'law' in China has a very different connotation than it does in the U.S. Also note that BODIES has been touring since 2005. Until July of 2006, selling organs was legal in China. Organ transplantation is an extremely lucrative industry in China. Those who are profiting the most via the organ-trafficking trade are often directly connected to the Chinese government / military. Selling organs was deemed illegal specifically to placate the International Olympic Committee - China will be hosting the Olympics in 2008 - but the new regulations are not enforced.
For reputable sources regarding this topic, see The Legality of Plastinated-Corpse Exhibits and The Kilgour-Matas Reports sections on The Issues page of this website.
________________________________________
Misleading Statement: None of the people displayed in the exhibit were killed specifically to be displayed in the exhibit.
The truth: This is not a 'fact' in the scientific sense - it may be true, but there is no proof that it is true. Again, no one really knows where the bodies in the exhibit come from. Staff members at a Falun Gong detention center in the same Chinese province as Dalian Medical University have admitted to 'supplying' organs for transplantation. (These organs were removed from live Falun Gong prisoners). It is not completely unbelievable that they might also supply them for exhibit purposes.
For reputable sources on this topic, see The Kilgour-Matas Reports and The Provenance of BODIES' Corpses sections on The Issues page of this website.

Misleading Statement: "Educational tools that can teach children." - New York Times (source: Carnegie Science Center advertisement) Note: As of the end of November, this quote was removed from the ad.
The truth: This quote suggests that the NY Times endorses the exhibit, however the quote is taken out of context.
The statement above is taken from the 11/18/05 NY Times article, "Cadaver Exhibition Raises Questions Beyond Taste" articles.news.aol.com/news/_a/cadaver-exhibition-raises-q...
Andrew Jacobs, the author of the article, is quite critical of BODIES...the Exhibition, discussing the Chinese government's history of "recycling the organs of executed prisoners" and Dalian University's history of supplying questionably-obtained corpses to other exhibits. The quote used in the advertisement comes from the following sentence: "Playing down the sensationalism, Premier executives use the word 'specimen' to describe the exhibits and emphasize their value as educational tools that can teach children about human physiology and help adults learn how to lead healthier lives."

A Five-Year Photographic Journey with the M4/3 Series.
As a supplement to the Unsung Joe piece on Franklin Parker, a bit-part actor who had tiny roles as newspaper reporters in 30 or so films in the 30s and 40s, here's a front-page news story from 1938 that he featured in, which represents the peak of his fame.
The movie star of the headline is Lyle Talbot, a B-movie actor who you probably haven't heard of (I certainly hadn't). He was in "Plan 9 From Outer Space" (1959), though, so he probably counts as one of Hollywood's immortals.
Franklin and Lyle, both Nebraska boys, had met when Lyle was the leading man in the stock theatre company in Lincoln, Nebraska. Their friendship survived the transition to Hollywood and the fact that Lyle got plenty of decent work while Franklin made do with walk-ons.
Here's what appeared under that headline in the October 25, 1938, edition of the Centralia Daily Chronicle:
"BEVERLY HILLS, Calif -- Trapped by fire on the second floor of his pretentious home here early today, Lyle Talbot, handsome leading man of the films, and his house guest, Franklin Parker, also an actor, leaped to safety early today.
They were taken to the Beverly Hills receiving hospital suffering painful burns. Their condition was declared by attendants to be serious."
Did 'pretentious' have a different meaning in 1938? If not, that would seem to be a needlessly harsh thing to say about the house of a guy who's lying in hospital with serious burns. The article continued:
"Talbot's hair was burned from his scalp and Parker's back was severely burned. The house was nearly demolished by the flames after the pair made their 20-foot leap ... Police theorized the fire may have been started by a burning cigarette, left in the living room. Talbot had entertained last night, authorities said they had learned, but all of the guests except Parker had left the home when the fire broke out."
The following day's papers carried another AP wire story about Parker and Talbot, to which the Galveston Daily News gave the headline: "Burns Inflicted Rescuing Friend From Fire May End Talbot's Screen Career". The story read:
"The red badge of courage belonged tonight to Screen Actor Lyle Talbot, hero of a fire that destroyed his $50,000 home, but the penalty of his heroism probably is a blighted screen career.
Talbot's hands, neck, arms and head were burned so severely he may never appear again before the cameras. He saved the life of his house guest, Franklin D Parker, also an actor, by dragging him from a fiery, smoke-filled bedroom to a second-storey ledge and safety.
Witnesses saw Talbot, trapped on the second floor by flames that started at ground level, trying desperately to drag Parker's unconscious form out on a porch roof from a bedroom. Talbot, choking with smoke, his pajamas aflame, finally got Parker to safety and then leaped 20 feet to the ground to assist firemen who had been summoned by neighbors.
The condition of both men was critical, said physicians at Cedars of Lebanon Hospital."
The story went on to say that Talbot's wife was staying with a friend whose husband was out of town (so perhaps the party at Talbot's house had been a sort of gals-free stag-do sort of affair) and then recounted Talbot's career to date, noting that his last role was in "I Stand Accused" (1938), in which he played a gangster "and met the usual screen death at the hands of the law."
Of Franklin, it said only: "Parker played on the New York stage several years ago. He has had several bit roles and a few featured parts since coming to Hollywood."
Franklin Parker: even when he makes the front page, it's in a bit part.
It seems that the pair's burns were less serious than they appeared to be, because they both continued to work as steadily as they had ever done, and photographs of Lyle Talbot in later years show him with a full head of hair and no visible scars.
Franklin died of a heart attack in 1962, at the age of 60, and Lyle lived until he was 92, in 1996, when he died of 'natural causes'.

Calling All Girls
( Parents' Magazine Press, Parents' Magazine Institute )
YM was an American teen magazine that began in 1932. It was published for 72 years and was the second-oldest girls' magazine (the oldest being Seventeen) in the United States.
YM got its start as two magazines in the 1930s—Compact, which was aimed at older teens, and
Calling All Girls, which was intended for younger girls and pioneered the signature embarrassing-moments column, "Say Anything".
By the late 1960s, the publications merged into Young Miss, a small digest-sized mag. In the 1960s the size was increased and the 1980s saw still another title change (this time to Young & Modern) under Bonnie Fuller's direction as editor-in-chief.
The final title change came in 2000 (this time to Your Magazine), though the abbreviation "YM" was the title by which it was commonly referred. It ceased publication in 2004, with the December/January issue featuring Usher. Subscribers received Teen Vogue subscriptions in replacement.
YM is no longer published online and now the domain is only a link to Teen Vogue.

De spin heeft zojuist een nachtvlinder "ingepakt" in spinrag
De Kruisspin (Araneus diadematus) is een middelgrote spin die behoort tot de familie wielwebspinnen (Araneidae).
De kruisspin is in tegenstelling tot veel andere spinnen geen schuwe soort, maar eentje die vaak midden in het web zit en moeilijk over het hoofd is te zien. De spin wordt ook relatief groot tot zo'n 17 millimeter. De naam is te danken aan de op een kruis gelijkend patroon op het achterlijf dat bestaat uit een groepje lichtere tot witte vlekjes die afsteken tegen de donkerbruine tot gele achtergrondkleur. De kruisspin is in Europa een van de meer algemene soorten en de spin komt ook in België en Nederland voor. Omdat de kruisspin in beschaduwde, van de wind afgeschermde hogere planten leeft duikt de spin vaak op in tuinen en hierdoor is het een van de bekendste Europese spinnen.
De kruisspin bouwt het web op enige hoogte en vangt voornamelijk vliegende insecten. De spin wordt zelf gegeten door insecteneters zoals vogels. De levenscyclus is tweejarig; de paring vindt plaats in de herfst en de eitjes overwinteren. In de lente komen ze uit en pas het volgende jaar worden de spinnen volwassen.
De kruisspin is door de Europese Arachnologische Vereniging uitgeroepen tot spin van het jaar 2010.

1. मत्ती 12:1 उस समय यीशु
2. मत्ती 12:6-8 पर मैं तुम से कहता हूँ कि यहाँ वह है जो मन्दिर से भी बड़ा है। यदि तुम इसका अर्थ जानते, “मैं दया से प्रसन्न होता हूँ, बलिदान से नहीं,” तो तुम निर्दोष को दोषी न ठहराते। मनुष्य का पुत्र तो सब्त के दिन का भी प्रभु है।
आओ पहले हम इस अंश को देखें: “उस समय यीशु सब्त के दिन खेतों में से होकर जा रहा था, और उसके चेलों को भूख लगी तो वे बालें तोड़-तोड़कर खाने लगे।”
हमने इस अंश को क्यो चुना है? इसका परमेश्वर के स्वभाव से क्या सम्बन्ध है? इस पाठ में, पहली चीज़ जो हम जानते हैं वह है कि यह सब्त का दिन था, परन्तु बाहर गया और अपने चेलों को अनाज के खेतों में ले गया। इससे ज्यादा “चौंका देने वाली बात” क्या हो सकती है कि वे मकई की “बालें तोड़-तोड़कर खाने लगे।” व्यवस्था के युग में, यहोवा परमेश्वर की व्यवस्था थी कि लोग सब्त के दिन यूँ ही बाहर नहीं जा सकते थे और गतिविधियों में भाग नहीं ले सकते थे—बहुत सी ऐसी बातें थीं जिन्हें सब्त के दिन नहीं किया जा सकता था। प्रभु यीशु की ओर से किया गया यह कार्य उनके लिए पेचीदा था जो एक लम्बे समय से व्यवस्था के अधीन जीवन बिता रहे थे, और इसने आलोचना को भी भड़काया था। जहाँ तक उनके भ्रम और इस बात का संबंध है कि यीशु ने जो किया उसके बारे में उन्होंने किस प्रकार बात की, हम फिलहाल उसे एक ओर रखेंगे और पहले यह चर्चा करेंगे कि प्रभु यीशु ने, सभी दिनों में से, सब्त के दिन ही ऐसा करना क्यों चुना, और इस कार्य के द्वारा वह उन लोगों से क्या कहना चाहता था जो व्यवस्था के अधीन रह रहे थे। यह इस अंश और परमेश्वर के स्वभाव के बीच का संबंध है जिसके बारे में मैं तुमसे बात करना चाहता हूँ।
जब प्रभु यीशु मसीह आया, तो उसने लोगों से संवाद करने के लिए अपने व्यावहारिक कार्यों का उपयोग कियाः परमेश्वर ने व्यवस्था के युग को अलविदा किया था और नए कार्य का प्रारम्भ किया था, और इस नए कार्य को सब्त का पालन करने की आवश्यकता नहीं थी; जब परमेश्वर सब्त के दिन की सीमाओं से बाहर आ गया, तो यह उसके नए कार्य का बस एक पूर्वानुभव था, और उसका सचमुच का महान कार्य लगातार जारी हो रहा था। जब प्रभु यीशु ने अपना कार्य प्रारम्भ किया, तो उसने पहले से ही व्यवस्था की जंज़ीरों को पीछे छोड़ दिया था, और उस युग के विधि-विधानों और सिद्धांतों को तोड़ दिया था। उसमें, व्यवस्था से जुड़ी किसी भी बात का निशान नहीं था; उसने उसे पूर्णत: उतार कर फेंक दिया था तथा उसका अब और अनुसरण नहीं करता था, और उसने मनुष्यजाति से उसका अब और अनुसरण करने की अपेक्षा नहीं की थी। इसलिए तुम यहाँ देखते हो कि प्रभु यीशु सब्त के दिन मकई के खेतों से होकर गुज़रा, प्रभु ने आराम नहीं किया, बल्कि बाहर काम करता रहा। उसका यह कार्य लोगों की धारणाओं के लिए एक आघात था और इसने उन्हें सूचित किया कि वह व्यवस्था के अधीन अब और जीवन नहीं बिताएगा, और यह कि उसने सब्त की सीमाओं को छोड़ दिया है और एक नई कार्यशैली के साथ वह मनुष्यजाति के सामने और उनके बीच एक नई छवि में प्रकट हुआ है। उसके इस कार्य ने लोगों को बताया कि वह अपने साथ एक नया कार्य लाया है जो व्यवस्था से बाहर जाने और सब्त से बाहर जाने से आरम्भ हुआ था। जब परमेश्वर ने अपना नया कार्य कार्यान्वित किया, तो वह अतीत से अब और नहीं चिपका रहा, और वह व्यवस्था के युग की विधियों के बारे में अब और चिन्तित नहीं था। न ही वह पूर्ववर्ती युग के अपने कार्य से प्रभावित था, बल्कि उसने सब्त के दिन में भी सामान्य रूप से कार्य किया और जब उसके चेले भूखे थे, तो वे मकई की बालें तोड़कर खा सकते थे। यह सब कुछ परमेश्वर की निगाहों में बिल्कुल सामान्य था। परमेश्वर के पास अधिकांश कार्य करने के लिए जिसे वह करना चाहता है और अधिकांश बातें कहने के लिए जिन्हें वह कहना चाहता है, एक नई शुरूआत हो सकती है। एक बार जब उसने एक नई शुरूआत कर दी, तो वह न तो फिर से अपने पिछले कार्य का उल्लेख करता है और न ही उसे जारी रखता है। क्योंकि परमेश्वर के पास उसके कार्य के स्वयं के सिद्धांत हैं। जब वह नया कार्य शुरू करना चाहता है, तो यह तब होता है जब वह मनुष्यजाति को अपने कार्य के एक नए स्तर में पहुँचाना चाहता है, और जब उसका कार्य एक उच्चतर चरण में प्रवेश कर लेता है। यदि लोग लगातार पुरानी कहावतों या विधि-विधानों के अनुसार काम करते रहेंगे या उन्हें निरन्तर मज़बूती से पकड़ें रहेंगे, तो इसे याद नहीं रखेगा या इसकी प्रशंसा नहीं करेगा। ऐसा इसलिए है क्योंकि वह पहले से ही एक नए कार्य को ला चुका है, और अपने कार्य में एक नए चरण में प्रवेश कर चुका है। जब वह एक नए कार्य को आरम्भ करता है, तो वह मनुष्यजाति के सामने पूर्णतः नई छवि में, पूर्णतः नए कोण से, और पूर्णतः नए तरीके से प्रकट होता है ताकि लोग उसके स्वभाव के भिन्न-भिन्न पहलुओं को और उसके स्वरूप को देख सकें। यह उसके नए कार्य में उसके लक्ष्यों में से एक है। परमेश्वर पुराने को थामे नहीं रहता है या घिसे-पिटे मार्ग को नहीं लेता है; जब वह कार्य करता और बोलता है तो यह उतना निषेधात्मक नहीं होता है जितना लोग कल्पना करते हैं। परमेश्वर में, सभी स्वतंत्र और मुक्त हैं, और कोई निषेधात्मकता नहीं है, कोई लाचारी नहीं है—जो वह मनुष्यजाति के लिए लाता है वह सम्पूर्ण आज़ादी और मुक्ति है। वह एक जीवित परमेश्वर है, एक ऐसा परमेश्वर जो असलियत में, और सचमुच में अस्तित्व में है। वह कोई कठपुतली या मिट्टी की मूर्ति नहीं है, और वह उन मूर्तियों से बिल्कुल भिन्न है जिन्हें लोग प्रतिष्ठापित करते हैं और जिनकी आराधना करते हैं। वह जीवित और जीवन्त है और उसके कार्य और वचन मनुष्यों के लिए जो लेकर आते हैं वे हैं सम्पूर्ण जीवन और ज्योति, सम्पूर्ण स्वतन्त्रता और मुक्ति, क्योंकि वह सत्य, जीवन, और मार्ग को धारण करता है—और वह अपने किसी भी कार्य में किसी भी चीज़ के द्वारा विवश नहीं होता है। लोग चाहे कुछ भी क्यों न कहें और चाहे वे उसके नए कार्य को किसी भी प्रकार से क्यों न देखें या कैसे भी उसका आकलन क्यों न करें, वह बिना किसी रुकावट के अपने कार्य को पूरा करेगा। वह किसी की भी धारणाओं या उसके कार्य और वचनों पर उठी अँगुलियों के बारे में, या अपने नए कार्य के लिए उनके कठोर विरोध और प्रतिरोध की भी चिन्ता नहीं करेगा। जो परमेश्वर करता है उसे मापने या परिभाषित करने, उसके कार्य को बदनाम करने, या तितर-बितर करने या उसमें तोड़फोड़ करने के लिए, संपूर्ण सृष्टि में कोई भी मानवीय तर्क, या मानवीय कल्पनाओं, ज्ञान, या नैतिकता का उपयोग नहीं कर सकता है। उसके कार्य में और जो वह करता है उसमें कोई निषेधात्मकता नहीं है, और उसे किसी मनुष्य, चीज़ या पदार्थ के द्वारा लाचार नहीं किया जाएगा, और उसे किसी शत्रुतापूर्ण ताक़तों के द्वारा तितर-बितर नहीं किया जाएगा। अपने नए कार्य में, वह एक सर्वदा विजयी राजा है, और किन्हीं भी शत्रुतापूर्ण ताक़तों और मनुष्यजाति में से सभी विधर्मों और भ्रांतियों को उसकी चरण-पीठ के नीचे कुचल दिया जाता है। इस बात से कोई फर्क नहीं पड़ता है कि वह अपने कार्य के किस नए स्तर पर काम कर रहा है, इसे मनुष्यजाति के बीच विकसित और विस्तारित अवश्य होना चाहिए, इसे संपूर्ण विश्व में तब तक अबाधित रूप से अवश्य कार्यान्वित किया जाना चाहिए जब तक कि उसका महान कार्य पूर्ण नहीं हो जाता है। यह परमेश्वर की सर्वशक्तिमत्ता और बुद्धि, और उसका अधिकार और उसकी सामर्थ्य है। इस प्रकार, प्रभु यीशु मसीह खुलकर बाहर जा सकता था और सब्त के दिन कार्य कर सकता था क्योंकि उसके हृदय में कोई नियम नहीं थे, और वहाँ मनुष्यजाति से उत्पन्न कोई ज्ञान और सिद्धांत नहीं था। उसके पास जो था वह परमेश्वर का नया कार्य और उसका मार्ग था, और उसका कार्य मनुष्यजाति को स्वतन्त्र करना था, उसे मुक्त करना था, उन्हें प्रकाश में बने रहने की अनुमति देना था, और उन्हें जीने की अनुमति देना था। और जो मूर्तियों या झूठे ईश्वरों की पूजा करते हैं वे, सभी प्रकार के नियमों और वर्जनाओं से नियंत्रित, हर दिन शैतान के बन्धनों में जीते हैं—आज एक चीज़ का निषेध होता है, कल किसी दूसरी चीज़ का निषेध होता है—उनके जीवन में कोई स्वतन्त्रता नहीं है। वे जंज़ीरों में जकड़े हुए कैदियों के समान हैं जिनके पास कोई खुशी नहीं है जिसके बारे में वे बात करें। “निषेध” क्या दर्शाता है? यह विवशता, बन्धनों, और दुष्टता को दर्शाता है। जैसे ही कोई व्यक्ति किसी मूर्ति की आराधना करता है तो वह एक झूठे ईश्वर की आराधना कर रहा होता है, वह एक दुष्ट आत्मा की आराधना कर रहा होता है। प्रतिबन्ध इसके साथ आता है। तुम यह या वह नहीं खा सकते हो, तुम आज बाहर नहीं जा सकते हो, तुम कल अपना चूल्हा नहीं जला सकते हो, तुम अगले दिन नए घर में नहीं जा सकते हो, विवाह तथा अन्तिम क्रिया के लिए, और यहाँ तक कि बच्चे को जन्म देने के लिए भी कुछ निश्चित दिनों को ही चुनना होगा। यह क्या कहलाता है? यही प्रतिबन्ध कहलाता है; यह मनुष्यजाति का बंधन है, और ये शैतान की जंज़ीरें हैं और दुष्ट आत्माएँ इन्हें नियन्त्रित कर रही हैं, और उनके हृदयों और शरीरों को अवरुद्ध कर रही हैं। क्या ये प्रतिबन्ध परमेश्वर के साथ विद्यमान रहते हैं? जब परमेश्वर की पवित्रता की बात करते हैं, तो तुम्हें सबसे पहले यह सोचना चाहिएः कि परमेश्वर के साथ कोई भी निषेध नहीं है। परमेश्वर के वचनों और कार्य में उसके सिद्धांत हैं, किन्तु कोई निषेध नहीं हैं, क्योंकि परमेश्वर स्वयं सत्य, मार्ग, और जीवन है।
आओ हम निम्नलिखित अंश को देखें: “पर मैं तुम से कहता हूँ कि यहाँ वह है जो मन्दिर से भी बड़ा है। यदि तुम इसका अर्थ जानते, ‘मैं दया से प्रसन्न होता हूँ, बलिदान से नहीं,’ तो तुम निर्दोष को दोषी न ठहराते। मनुष्य का पुत्र तो सब्त के दिन का भी प्रभु है” (मत्ती 12:6-8)। यहाँ “मन्दिर” किस का इशारा करता है? आसान शब्दों में कहें तो, “मन्दिर” एक शोभायमान, ऊँची इमारत का इशारा करता है, और व्यवस्था के युग में, मन्दिर परमेश्वर की आराधना हेतु याजकों के लिए एक स्थान था। जब प्रभु यीशु ने कहा, “कि यहाँ वह है जो मन्दिर से भी बड़ा है,” यहाँ “वह” किसकी ओर इशारा करता है? स्पष्ट रूप से “वह” प्रभु यीशु है जो देह में है, क्योंकि केवल वही मन्दिर से बड़ा था। उन वचनों ने लोगों से क्या कहा? उन्होंने लोगों को मन्दिर से बाहर आने के लिए कहा—परमेश्वर पहले ही बाहर आ चुका था और उसमें अब और कार्य नहीं कर रहा था, इसलिए लोगों को मन्दिर के बाहर परमेश्वर के पदचिह्नों को ढूँढ़ना चाहिए और उसके नए कार्य में उसके कदमों का अनुसरण करना चाहिए। प्रभु यीशु मसीह के इस कथन की पृष्ठभूमि यह थी कि व्यवस्था के अधीन, लोग किसी ऐसी चीज़ के रूप में मन्दिर को देखने के लिए आए थे जो स्वयं परमेश्वर से भी बड़ा था। अर्थात्, लोग परमेश्वर की आराधना करने के बजाए मन्दिर की आराधना करते थे, इसलिए प्रभु यीशु मसीह ने उन्हें सावधान किया कि वे मूर्तियों की आराधना न करें, बल्कि परमेश्वर की आराधना करें क्योंकि वह सर्वोच्च है। इसलिए उसने कहाः “मैं दया से प्रसन्न होता हूँ, बलिदान से नहीं।” यह स्पष्ट है कि प्रभु यीशु की नज़रों में, व्यवस्था के अधीन अधिकांश लोग यहोवा की अब और आराधना नही करते थे, बल्कि मात्र बलिदान की प्रक्रिया से होकर जाते थे, और प्रभु यीशु ने निर्धारित किया था कि यह प्रक्रिया मूर्ति पूजा है। इन मूर्ति पूजकों ने मन्दिर को परमेश्वर से अधिक महान और उच्चतर रूप में देखा था। उनके हृदयों में केवल मन्दिर था, न कि परमेश्वर, और यदि वे मन्दिर को खो देते हैं, तो वे अपने निवास स्थान को भी खो देते हैं। मन्दिर के बिना उनके पास आराधना के लिए कोई जगह नहीं थी और वे बलिदानों को कार्यान्वित नहीं कर सकते थे। उनका तथाकथित निवास स्थान वहाँ है जहाँ से वे यहोवा परमेश्वर की आराधना के झण्डे तले संचालन करते थे, जहाँ उन्हें मन्दिर के टिके रहने और अपने स्वयं के क्रियाकलापों को करने की अनुमति दी जाती थी। उनके तथाकथित बलिदानों को चढ़ाना मन्दिर में उनकी सेवा आयोजित करने के बहाने बस उनके स्वयं के व्यक्तिगत शर्मनाक व्यवहारों को कार्यान्वित करने के लिए था। यही वह कारण था कि उस समय लोग मन्दिर को परमेश्वर से भी बड़ा देखते थे। क्योंकि वे मन्दिर को एक आड़ के रूप में, और बलिदानों को लोगों को धोखा देने और परमेश्वर को धोखो देने के लिए एक बहाने के रूप में उपयोग करते थे, इसलिए प्रभु यीशु ने लोगों को चेतावनी देने के लिए ऐसा कहा था। …
आगे, आओ हम पवित्रशास्त्र के इस अंश के इस अन्तिम वाक्य पर एक नज़र डालें: “मनुष्य का पुत्र तो सब्त के दिन का भी प्रभु है।” क्या इस वाक्य का कोई व्यावहारिक पक्ष है? क्या तुम लोग इसके व्यावहारिक पक्ष को देख सकते हो? हर एक बात जो परमेश्वर कहता है उसके हृदय से आती है, तो उसने ऐसा क्यों कहा? तुम लोग इसे कैसे समझते हो? हो सकता है तुम लोग इस वाक्य का अर्थ अब समझते हों, परन्तु उस समय बहुत से लोग नही समझते थे क्योंकि मनुष्यजाति बस उसी समय व्यवस्था के युग से बाहर निकली थी। उनके लिए, सब्त से बाहर निकलना एक कठिन बात थी, और सच्चा सब्त क्या होता है इसे समझने का तो ज़िक्र ही मत करो।
यह वाक्य “मनुष्य का पुत्र तो सब्त के दिन का भी प्रभु है” लोगों को बताता है कि परमेश्वर का सब कुछ अभौतिक है, और यद्यपि परमेश्वर तुम्हारी सारी भौतिक आवश्यकताओं को प्रदान कर सकता है, फिर भी जब एक बार तुम्हारी भौतिक आवश्यकताएँ पूरी कर दी जाती हैं, तो क्या इन चीज़ों से सन्तुष्टि तुम्हारी सत्य की खोज का स्थान ले सकती है? यह निःसन्देह संभव नहीं है! परमेश्वर का स्वभाव और उसका स्वरूप जिसके बारे में हमने संगति की है दोनों सत्य हैं। इसे भौतिक वस्तुओं की भारी कीमत के साथ भी नहीं तौला जा सकता है और न ही इसके मूल्य की पैसों में मात्रा निर्धारित की जा सकती है, क्योंकि यह कोई भौतिक वस्तु नहीं है, और यह हर एक व्यक्ति के हृदय की आवश्यकताओं की आपूर्ति करता है। प्रत्येक मनुष्य के लिए, इन अमूर्त सच्चाईयों का मूल्य ऐसी किसी भी भौतिक चीज़ से बढ़कर होना चाहिए जिसे तुम अच्छा समझते हो, ठीक है न? यह कथन कुछ ऐसा है जिस पर तुम लोगों को टिके रहने की आवश्यकता है। जो कुछ मैंने कहा है उसका मुख्य बिन्दु यह है कि परमेश्वर का स्वरूप और उसका सब कुछ हर एक व्यक्ति के लिए अति महत्वपूर्ण चीज़ें हैं और इन्हें किसी भौतिक पदार्थ के द्वारा बदला नहीं जा सकता है। मैं तुम्हें एक उदाहरण दूँगाः जब तुम्हें भूख लगती है, तो तुम्हें भोजन की आवश्यकता होती है। यह भोजन सापेक्ष रूप से अच्छा हो सकता है, या सापेक्ष रूप से कमी वाला हो सकता है, किन्तु जब तुम अपना पेट भर लेते हो, तो भूखे होने का वह अप्रिय एहसास अब और नहीं होगा—वह चला जाएगा। तुम वहाँ आराम से बैठ सकते हो, और तुम्हारा शरीर आराम में होगा। लोगों की भूख का भोजन से समाधान किया जा सकता है, किन्तु जब तुम परमेश्वर का अनुसरण करते हो, और तुम्हें यह एहसास होता है कि तुम्हें उसके बारे में कोई समझ नहीं है? तो तुम अपने हृदय के खालीपन का समाधान कैसे करोगे? क्या इसका समाधान भोजन से किया जा सकता है? या जब तुम परमेश्वर का अनुसरण कर रहे हो और उसकी इच्छा तुम्हारी समझ में नहीं आती है, तो तुम अपने हृदय की उस भूख को मिटाने के लिए किस चीज़ का उपयोग कर सकते हो? परमेश्वर के माध्यम से उद्धार के तुम्हारे अनुभव की प्रक्रिया में, अपने स्वभाव में किसी परिवर्तन की खोज करने के दौरान, यदि तुम उसकी इच्छा को नहीं समझते हो या यह नहीं जानते हो कि सत्य क्या है, और यदि तुम परमेश्वर के स्वभाव को नहीं समझते हो, तो क्या तुम बहुत व्याकुलता महसूस नहीं करते हो? क्या तुम अपने हृदय में एक बड़ी भूख और प्यास महसूस नहीं करते हो? क्या ये एहसास तुम्हें तुम्हारे हृदय में शांति महसूस करने से रोकते नहीं हैं? तो कैसे तुम अपने हृदय की उस भूख की क्षतिपूर्ति कर सकते हो—क्या इसका समाधान करने का कोई तरीका है? कुछ लोग खरीददारी करने के लिए बाज़ार चले जाते हैं, कुछ लोग भरोसा करने के लिए मित्रों को ढूँढ़ लेते हैं, कुछ लोग जी भरकर सोते हैं, अन्य लोग परमेश्वर के वचनों को और अधिक पढ़ते हैं, या अपने कर्तव्यों को निभाने के लिए कठिन मेहनत और अधिक प्रयास व्यय करते हैं। क्या ये चीज़े तुम्हारी वास्तविक कठिनाईयों का समाधान कर सकती हैं? तुम लोगों में से सभी इस प्रकार के अभ्यासों को पूर्णत: समझ लो। जब तुम निर्बलता महसूस करते हो, जब तुम परमेश्वर से प्रबुद्धता पाने की दृढ़ इच्छा महसूस करते हो ताकि वह तुम्हें उसकी सच्चाई और उसकी इच्छा की वास्तविकता को जानने की अनुमति दे सके, तो तुम्हें सबसे ज़्यादा किसकी आवश्यकता होती है? तुम्हें जिसकी आवश्यकता होती है वह भरपेट आहार नहीं है, और यह कुछ भले वचन नहीं हैं। उससे बढ़कर, यह देह का क्षणिक आराम और देह की सन्तुष्टि नहीं है—तुम्हें जिसकी आवश्यक है वह है कि परमेश्वर तुम्हें सीधे और स्पष्ट रूप से बताए कि तुम्हें क्या करना चाहिए और तुम्हें इसे कैसे करना करना चाहिए, और तुम्हें स्पष्ट रूप से बताए कि सत्य क्या है। तुम्हारे द्वारा इसे समझ लेने के बाद, भले ही यह थोड़ा सा ही क्यों ना हो, क्या तुम एक अच्छा भोजन कर लेने की तुलना में अपने हृदय में अधिक सन्तुष्टि महसूस नहीं करते हो? जब तुम्हारा हृदय सन्तुष्ट होता है, तो क्या तुम्हारा हृदय, तुम्हारा सम्पूर्ण व्यक्तित्व सच्ची शांति प्राप्त नहीं करता है? इस दृष्टान्त और विश्लेषण के द्वारा, क्या तुम लोगों को अब समझ में आया कि क्यों मैं तुम लोगों के साथ इस वाक्य को साझा करना चाहता था कि, “मनुष्य का पुत्र तो सब्त के दिन का भी प्रभु है”? इसका वह अर्थ है जो परमेश्वर से आता है, जो उसका स्वरूप है, और उसका सब कुछ किसी भी अन्य चीज़ से बढ़कर है, जिसमें वह चीज़ या वह व्यक्ति भी शामिल है जिस पर तुमने किसी समय विश्वास किया था और जिसे तुमने सबसे अधिक सँजोया था। अर्थात्, यदि मनुष्य परमेश्वर के मुँह के वचन प्राप्त नहीं कर सकते हैं या वे उसकी इच्छा को नहीं समझते हैं, तो वे शांति प्राप्त नहीं कर सकते हैं। अपने भविष्य के अनुभवों में, तुम लोग समझोगे कि मैं क्यों चाहता था कि आज तुम लोग इस अंश को देखो—यह बहुत महत्वपूर्ण है। सब कुछ जो परमेश्वर करता है वह सत्य और जीवन है। मनुष्य-जाति के लिए सत्य कोई ऐसी चीज़ है जिसकी उनके जीवन में कमी नहीं हो सकती है, जिसके बिना वे कभी कुछ नहीं कर सकते हैं; तुम ऐसा भी कह सकते हो कि यह सबसे बड़ी चीज़ है। यद्यपि तुम उसे देख या उसे छू नहीं सकते हो, फिर भी तुम्हारे लिए उसके महत्व की उपेक्षा नहीं की जा सकती है; यही वह एकमात्र चीज़ है जो तुम्हारे हृदय में शांति ला सकती है।

Ενσάρκωση
Ο Θεός λέει:« ... Όταν ο Κύριος Ιησούς έζησε με την ανθρωπότητα, είδε αγρότες να φροντίζουν τα χωράφια τους και ήξερε τι ήταν τα ζιζάνια και το προζύμι· καταλάβαινε πως στους ανθρώπους αρέσουν οι θησαυροί, έτσι χρησιμοποίησε τις μεταφορές του θησαυρού και του μαργαριταριού· συχνά έβλεπε ψαράδες να ρίχνουν τα δίχτυα τους, και ούτω καθεξής. Ο Κύριος Ιησούς είδε τις δραστηριότητες αυτές στις ζωές της ανθρωπότητας, όπως και βίωσε αυτού του είδους τη ζωή. Ήταν όμοιος με κάθε άλλο κανονικό άνθρωπο, βιώνοντας τα τρία γεύματα τη μέρα και την καθημερινότητα της ανθρωπότητας. Βίωσε προσωπικά τη ζωή ενός μέσου ανθρώπου και είδε με τα μάτια Του τις ζωές των άλλων. Όταν είδε με τα μάτια Του και βίωσε προσωπικά όλα αυτά, αυτό που σκέφτηκε δεν ήταν το πώς θα έχει μια καλή ζωή ή πώς θα μπορούσε να ζήσει πιο ελεύθερα, πιο άνετα. Όταν βίωνε μια αυθεντική ανθρώπινη ζωή, ο Κύριος Ιησούς είδε τις κακουχίες στις ζωές των ανθρώπων, είδε τις κακουχίες, την εξαθλίωση και τη θλίψη των ανθρώπων υπό τη διαφθορά του Σατανά, των ανθρώπων που ζούσαν υπό τη σφαίρα επιρροής του Σατανά, που ζούσαν στην αμαρτία. Ενώ βίωνε προσωπικά την ανθρώπινη ζωή, βίωσε επίσης πόσο ανήμποροι ήταν οι άνθρωποι που ζούσαν εν μέσω της διαφθοράς, όπως και είδε και βίωσε την αθλιότητα εκείνων που ζούσαν στην αμαρτία, που ήταν χαμένοι στα βασανιστήρια του Σατανά, του κακού. Όταν τα είδε αυτά ο Κύριος Ιησούς, τα είδε με τη θεϊκή ή με την ανθρώπινη φύση Του; Η ανθρώπινη φύση Του υπήρχε πραγματικά, ήταν ολοζώντανη, έτσι Αυτός μπορούσε να τα βιώνει και να τα βλέπει όλα αυτά, ενώ, φυσικά, τα έβλεπε και στην ουσία Του, στη θεϊκή Του φύση. Δηλαδή, αυτά τα είδε ο Χριστός ο ίδιος, ο Κύριος Ιησούς ο άνθρωπος, και όλα όσα είδε Τον έκαναν να νιώσει τη σημασία και την αναγκαιότητα του έργου που είχε αναλάβει, αυτή τη φορά στη σάρκα.... »

Pasting from Wikipedia: Arnold Arboretum:
• • • • •
The Arnold Arboretum of Harvard University is an arboretum located in the Jamaica Plain and Roslindale sections of Boston, Massachusetts. It was designed by Frederick Law Olmsted and is the second largest "link" in the Emerald Necklace.
History
The Arboretum was founded in 1872 when the President and Fellows of Harvard College became trustees of a portion of the estate of James Arnold (1781–1868).
In 1842, Benjamin Bussey (1757–1842), a prosperous Boston merchant and scientific farmer, donated his country estate Woodland Hill and a part of his fortune to Harvard University "for instruction in agriculture, horticulture, and related subjects". Bussey had inherited land from fellow patriot Eleazer Weld in 1800 and further enlarged his large estate between 1806 and 1837 by acquiring and consolidating various farms that had been established as early as the seventeenth century. Harvard used this land for the creation of the Bussey Institute, which was dedicated to agricultural experimentation. The first Bussey Institute building was completed in 1871 and served as headquarters for an undergraduate school of agriculture.
Sixteen years after Bussey's death, James Arnold, a New Bedford, Massachusetts whaling merchant, specified that a portion of his estate was to be used for "...the promotion of Agricultural, or Horticultural improvements". In 1872, when the trustees of the will of James Arnold transferred his estate to Harvard University, Arnold’s gift was combined with 120 acres (0.49 km2) of the former Bussey estate to create the Arnold Arboretum. In the deed of trust between the Arnold trustees and the College, income from Arnold’s legacy was to be used for establishing, developing and maintaining an arboretum to be known as the Arnold Arboretum which "shall contain, as far as practicable, all the trees [and] shrubs ... either indigenous or exotic, which can be raised in the open air of West Roxbury". The historical mission of the Arnold Arboretum is to increase knowledge of woody plants through research and to disseminate this knowledge through education.
Charles Sprague Sargent was appointed director and Arnold Professor of Botany shortly after the establishment of the institution in 1872.[2] Together with landscape architect Frederick Law Olmsted he developed the road and pathway system and delineated the collection areas by family and genus, following the then current and widely accepted classification system of Bentham and Hooker. The Hunnewell building was designed by architect Alexander Wadsworth Longfellow, Jr. in 1892 and constructed with funds donated by H. H. Hunnewell in 1903. From 1946 to 1950 the landscape architect Beatrix Farrand was the landscape design consultant for the Arboretum. Her early training in the 1890s included time with Charles Sprague Sargent and chief propagator and superintendent Jackson Thornton Johnson.[3] Today the Arboretum occupies 265 acres (107 hectares) of land divided between four parcels, viz. the main Arboretum and the Peters Hill, Weld-Walter and South Street tracts. The collections, however, are located primarily in the main Arboretum and on the Peters Hill tract. The Arboretum remains one of the finest examples of a landscape designed by Frederick Law Olmsted and it is a Frederick Law Olmsted National Historic Site) and a National Historic Landmark.
Robert E. Cook is the seventh and current Director of the Arnold Arboretum. He is also the Director of the Harvard University Herbaria located in Cambridge, Massachusetts.
Status
The Arboretum is privately endowed as a department of Harvard University. The land, however, was deeded to the City of Boston in 1882 and incorporated into the so-called "Emerald Necklace". Under the agreement with the City, Harvard University was given a thousand-year lease on the property, and the University, as trustee, is directly responsible for the development, maintenance, and operation of the Arboretum; the City retains responsibility for water fountains, benches, roads, boundaries, and policing. The annual operating budget of $7,350,644 (fiscal year 2003) is largely derived from endowment, which is also managed by the University, and all Arboretum staff are University employees. Other income is obtained through granting agencies and contributors.
Location
The main Arborway gate is located on Route 203 a few hundred yards south of its junction with the Jamaicaway. Public transportation to the Arboretum is available on the MBTA Orange Line to its terminus at Forest Hills Station and by bus (#39) to the Monument in Jamaica Plain. The Arboretum is within easy walking distance from either of these points.
Hours
The grounds are open free of charge to the public from sunrise to sunset 365 days of the year. The Visitor's Center in the Hunnewell Building, 125 Arborway, is open Monday through Friday 9 a.m.–4 p.m.; Saturdays 10 a.m.–4 p.m.; Sundays 12 p.m.–4 PM. The Visitor’s Center is closed on holidays. The Library, located in the Hunnewell Building, is open Monday through Saturday, 10 a.m.–4 p.m.. The Library is closed on Sundays and holidays. Stacks are closed and the collection does not circulate.
Area
Two hundred and sixty-five acres (107 hectares) in the Jamaica Plain and Roslindale sections of Boston, Massachusetts, located at 42°19′N 71°5′W / 42.317°N 71.083°W / 42.317; -71.083, with altitudes ranging from 46 feet (15 m) in the meadow across the drive from the Hunnewell Building to 240 feet (79 m) at the top of Peters Hill.
Climate
Average yearly rainfall is 43.63 inches (1,102 mm); average snowfall, 40.2 inches (102 centimeters). Monthly mean temperature is 51.5 °F (10.8 °C); July's mean temperature is 73.5 °F (23 °C); January's is 29.6 °F (-1.3 °C). The Arboretum is located in USDA hardiness zone 6 (0 to −10 °F, −18 to −23 °C).
Collections (as of September 14, 2007)
At present, the living collections include 15,441 individual plants (including nursery holdings) belonging to 10,216 accessions representing 4,099 taxa; with particular emphasis on the ligneous species of North America and eastern Asia. Historic collections include the plant introductions from eastern Asia made by Charles Sprague Sargent, Ernest Henry Wilson, William Purdom, Joseph Hers, and Joseph Rock. Recent introductions from Asia have resulted from the 1977 Arnold Arboretum Expedition to Japan and Korea, the 1980 Sino-American Botanical Expedition to western Hubei Province, and more recent expeditions to China and Taiwan.
Comprehensive collections are maintained and augmented for most genera, and genera that have received particular emphasis include: Acer, Fagus, Carya, Forsythia, Taxodium, Pinus, Metasequoia, Lonicera, Magnolia, Malus, Quercus, Rhododendron, Syringa, Paulownia, Albizia, Ilex, Gleditsia and Tsuga. Other comprehensive collections include the Bradley Collection of Rosaceous Plants, the collection of conifers and dwarf conifers, and the Larz Anderson Bonsai Collection. Approximately 500 accessions are processed annually.
Collections policy
The mission of the Arnold Arboretum is to increase our knowledge of the evolution and biology of woody plants. Historically, this research has investigated the global distribution and evolutionary history of trees, shrubs and vines, with particular emphasis on the disjunct species of East Asia and North America. Today this work continues through molecular studies of the evolution and biogeography of the floras of temperate Asia, North America and Europe.
Research activities include molecular studies of gene evolution, investigations of plant-water relations, and the monitoring of plant phenology, vegetation succession, nutrient cycling and other factors that inform studies of environmental change. Applied work in horticulture uses the collections for studies in plant propagation, plant introduction, and environmental management. This diversity of scientific investigation is founded in a continuing commitment to acquire, grow, and document the recognized species and infraspecific taxa of ligneous plants of the Northern Hemisphere that are able to withstand the climate of the Arboretum’s 265-acre (1.07 km2) Jamaica Plain/Roslindale site.
As a primary resource for research in plant biology, the Arboretum’s living collections are actively developed, curated, and managed to support scientific investigation and study. To this end, acquisition policies place priority on obtaining plants that are genetically representative of documented wild populations. For each taxon, the Arnold Arboretum aspires to grow multiple accessions of known wild provenance in order to represent significant variation that may occur across the geographic range of the species. Accessions of garden or cultivated provenance are also acquired as governed by the collections policies herein.
For all specimens, full documentation of both provenance and history within the collection is a critical priority. Curatorial procedures provide for complete and accurate records for each accession, and document original provenance, locations in the collections, and changes in botanical identity. Herbarium specimens, DNA materials, and digital images are gathered for the collection and maintained in Arboretum data systems and the herbarium at the Roslindale site.
Research
Research on plant pathology and integrated pest management for maintenance of the living collections is constantly ongoing. Herbarium-based research focuses on the systematics and biodiversity of both temperate and tropical Asian forests, as well as the ecology and potential for sustainable use of their resources. The Arboretum's education programs offer school groups and the general public a wide range of lectures, courses, and walks focusing on the ecology and cultivation of plants. Its quarterly magazine, Arnoldia, provides in-depth information on horticulture, botany, and garden history. Current Research Initiatives
Plant Records
Plant records are maintained on a computerized database, BG-BASE 6.8 (BG-Base Inc.), which was initiated in 1985 at the request of the Arnold Arboretum and the Threatened Plants Unit (TPU) of the World Conservation Monitoring Centre (WCMC). A computerized mapping program (based on AutoCAD (Autodesk)) is linked to BG-BASE, and each accession is recorded on a series of maps at a scale of 1-inch (25 mm) to 20 feet (1:240) or 1-inch (25 mm) to 10 feet (1:120). A computer-driven embosser generates records labels. All accessioned plants in the collections are labeled with accession number, botanical name, and cultivar name (when appropriate), source information, common name, and map location. Trunk and/or display labels are also hung on many accessions and include botanical and common names and nativity. Stake labels are used to identify plants located in the Leventritt Garden and Chinese Path.
Grounds Maintenance
The grounds staff consists of the superintendent and assistant superintendent, three arborists, and ten horticultural technologists. A service garage is adjacent to the Hunnewell Building, where offices and locker rooms are located. During the summer months ten horticultural interns supplement the grounds staff. A wide array of vehicles and modern equipment, including an aerial lift truck and a John Deere backhoe and front loader, are used in grounds maintenance. Permanent grounds staff, excluding the superintendents, are members of AFL/CIO Local 615, Service Employees International Union (SEIU).
Nursery and Greenhouse Facilities
The Dana Greenhouses, located at 1050 Centre Street (with a mailing address of 125 Arborway), were completed in 1962. They comprise four service greenhouses totaling 3,744 square feet (348 m²), the headhouse with offices, cold rooms, storage areas, and a classroom. Staffing at the greenhouse includes the manager of greenhouses and nurseries, the plant propagator, two assistants, and, during the summer months, two horticultural interns. Adjacent to the greenhouse is a shade house of 3,150 square feet (293 m²), a 12,600 cubic foot (357 m³) cold storage facility, and three irrigated, inground nurseries totaling approximately one and one-half acres (6,000 m²). Also located in the greenhouse complex is the bonsai pavilion, where the Larz Anderson Bonsai Collection is displayed from the middle of April to the end of October. During the winter months the bonsai are held in the cold storage unit at temperatures slightly above freezing.
Isabella Welles Hunnewell Internship Program
The living collections department of the Arnold Arboretum offers a paid summer internship program [2] that combines hands-on training in horticulture with educational courses. Intern trainees will be accepted for 12- to 24-week appointments. Ten interns will work with the grounds maintenance department and two in the Dana Greenhouses.
As part of the training program, interns participate in mandatory instructional sessions and field trips in order to develop a broader sense of the Arboretum’s horticultural practices as well as those of other institutions. Sessions and field trips are led by Arnold staff members and embrace an open question and answer format encouraging all to participate. Interns often bring experience and knowledge that everyone, including staff, benefits from. It is a competitive-free learning environment.
Horticultural Apprenticeship
The Arboretum created the horticultural apprenticeship program in 1997 to provide hands-on experience in all aspects of the development, curation, and maintenance of the Arboretum's living collections to individuals interested in pursuing a career in an arboretum or botanical garden.
The Living Collections department of the Arnold Arboretum offers a summer internship program[4] that combines practical hands-on training in horticulture with educational courses. Fourteen Interns/Horticultural Trainees are accepted for twelve to twenty-four week appointments. Interns receive the majority of their training in one of three departments: Grounds Maintenance, Nursery and Greenhouse, or Plant Records.
Lilac Sunday
The second Sunday in May every year is "Lilac Sunday". This is the only day of the year that picnicing is allowed. In 2008, on the 100th anniversary of Lilac Sunday, the Arboretum website touted:
Of the thousands of flowering plants in the Arboretum, only one, the lilac, is singled out each year for a daylong celebration. On Lilac Sunday, garden enthusiasts from all over New England gather at the Arboretum to picnic, watch Morris dancing, and tour the lilac collection. On the day of the event, which takes place rain or shine, the Arboretum is open as usual from dawn to dusk.[5]
Associated Collections
The Arboretum's herbarium in Jamaica Plain holds specimens of cultivated plants that relate to the living collections (ca. 160,000). The Jamaica Plain herbarium, horticultural library, archives, and photographs are maintained in the Hunnewell building at 125 Arborway; however, the main portions of the herbarium and library collections are housed in Cambridge on the campus of Harvard University, at 22 Divinity Avenue.
Publications
The inventory of living collections is updated periodically and made available to sister botanical gardens and arboreta on request; it is also available on the Arboretum’s website (searchable inventory). Arnoldia, the quarterly magazine of the Arnold Arboretum, frequently publishes articles relating to the living collections. A Reunion of Trees[6] by Stephen A. Spongberg (curator emeritus) recounts the history of the introduction of many of the exotic species included in the Arobretum’s collections. New England Natives[7] written by horticultural research archivist Sheila Connor describes many of the trees and shrubs of the New England flora and the ways New Englanders have used them since prehistoric times. Science in the Pleasure Ground[8] by Ida Hay (former curatorial associate) constitutes an institutional biography of the Arboretum.
Institutional Collaborations
The Arboretum maintains an institutional membership in the American Public Garden Association (APGA) and the International Association of Botanical Gardens and Arboreta. Additionally, members of the staff are associated with many national and international botanical and horticultural organizations. The Arboretum is also a cooperating institution with the Center for Plant Conservation (CPC), and as an active member of the North American Plant Collections Consortium (NAPCC), it is committed to broadening and maintaining its holdings of: Acer, Carya, Fagus, Stewartia, Syringa, and Tsuga for the purposes of plant conservation, evaluation, and research. The Arboretum is also a member of the North American China Plant Exploration Consortium (NACPEC).

Documenta From Wikipedia,
The Fridericianum during documenta (13)
documenta is an exhibition of contemporary art which takes place every five years in Kassel, Germany. It was founded by artist, teacher and curator Arnold Bode in 1955 as part of the Bundesgartenschau (Federal Horticultural Show) which took place in Kassel at that time.[1] It was an attempt to bring Germany up to speed with modern art, both banishing and repressing the cultural darkness of Nazism.[2] This first documenta featured many artists who are generally considered to have had a significant influence on modern art (such as Picasso and Kandinsky). The more recent documentas feature art from all continents; nonetheless most of it is site-specific.
Every documenta is limited to 100 days of exhibition, which is why it is often referred to as the "museum of 100 days".[3] Documenta is not a selling exhibition. It rarely coincides with the three other major art world events: the Venice Biennale, Art Basel and Skulptur Projekte Münster, but in 2017, all four were open simultaneously.
Etymology of documenta
The name of the exhibition is an invented word. The term is supposed to demonstrate the intention of every exhibition (in particular of the first documenta in 1955) to be a documentation of modern art which was not available for the German public during the Nazi era. Rumour spread from those close to Arnold Bode that it was relevant for the coinage of the term that the Latin word documentum could be separated into docere (Latin for teach) and mens (Latin for intellect) and therefore thought it to be a good word to describe the intention and the demand of the documenta.[4]
Each edition of documenta has commissioned its own visual identity, most of which have conformed to the typographic style of solely using lowercase letters, which originated at the Bauhaus.[5]
History
Stadtverwaldung by Joseph Beuys, oaktree in front of the museum Fridericianum, documenta 7
Art professor and designer Arnold Bode from Kassel was the initiator of the first documenta. Originally planned as a secondary event to accompany the Bundesgartenschau, this attracted more than 130,000 visitors in 1955. The exhibition centred less on "contemporary art“, that is art made after 1945: instead, Bode wanted to show the public works which had been known as "Entartete Kunst" in Germany during the Nazi era: Fauvism, Expressionism, Cubism, Blauer Reiter, Futurism and Pittura Metafisica. Therefore, abstract art, in particular the abstract paintings of the 1920s and 1930s, was the focus of interest in this exhibition.
Over time, the focus shifted to contemporary art. At first, the show was limited to works from Europe, but soon covered works by artists from the Americas, Africa and Asia. 4. documenta, the first ever to turn a profit, featured a selection of Pop Art, Minimal Art, and Kinetic Art.[6] Adopting the theme of Questioning Reality – Pictorial Worlds Today, the 1972 documenta radically redefined what could be considered art by featuring minimal and conceptual art, marking a turning point in the public acceptance of those styles.[7] Also, it devoted a large section to the work of Adolf Wolfli, the great Swiss outsider, then unknown. Joseph Beuys performed repeatedly under the auspices of his utopian Organization for Direct Democracy.[8] Additionally, the 1987 documenta show signaled another important shift with the elevation of design to the realm of art – showing an openness to postmodern design.[9] Certain key political dates for wide-reaching social and cultural upheavals, such as 1945, 1968 or 1976/77, became chronological markers of documenta X (1997), along which art's political, social, cultural and aesthetic exploratory functions were traced.[10] Documenta11 was organized around themes like migration, urbanization and the post-colonial experience,[11] with documentary photography, film and video as well as works from far-flung locales holding the spotlight.[7] In 2012, documenta (13) was described as "[a]rdently feminist, global and multimedia in approach and including works by dead artists and selected bits of ancient art".[12]
Criticism
documenta typically gives its artists at least two years to conceive and produce their projects, so the works are often elaborate and intellectually complex.[13] However, the participants are often not publicised before the very opening of the exhibition. At documenta (13), the official list of artists was not released until the day the show opened.[14] Even though curators have often claimed to have gone outside the art market in their selection, participants have always included established artists. In the documenta (13), for example, art critic Jerry Saltz identified more than a third of the artists represented by the renowned Marian Goodman Gallery in the show.[14]
Directors
The first four documentas, organized by Arnold Bode, established the exhibition's international credentials. Since the fifth documenta (1972), a new artistic director has been named for each documenta exhibition by a committee of experts. Documenta 8 was put together in two years instead of the usual five. The original directors, Edy de Wilde and Harald Szeemann, were unable to get along and stepped down. They were replaced by Manfred Schneckenburger, Edward F. Fry, Wulf Herzogenrath, Armin Zweite, and Vittorio Fagone.[15] Coosje van Bruggen helped select artists for documenta 7, the 1982 edition. documenta IX's team of curators consisted of Jan Hoet, Piero Luigi Tazzi, Denys Zacharopoulos, and Bart de Baere.[16] For documenta X Catherine David was chosen as the first woman and the first non-German speaker to hold the post. It is also the first and unique time that its website Documenta x was conceived by a curator (swiss curator Simon Lamunière) as a part of the exhibition. The first non-European director was Okwui Enwezor for Documenta11.[17]

2012's edition was organized around a central node, the trans-Atlantic melding of two distinct individuals who first encountered each other in the "money-soaked deserts of the United Arab Emirates". As an organizing principle it is simultaneously a commentary on the romantic potentials of globalization and also a critique of how digital platforms can complicate or interrogate the nature of such relationships. Curatorial agents refer to the concept as possessing a "fricative potential for productive awkwardness," wherein a twosome is formed for the purposes of future exploration.[23]
Venues
documenta is held in different venues in Kassel. Since 1955, the fixed venue has been the Fridericianum. The documenta-Halle was built in 1992 for documenta IX and now houses some of the exhibitions. Other venues used for documenta have included the Karlsaue park, Schloss Wilhelmshöhe, the Neue Galerie, the Ottoneum, and the Kulturzentrum Schlachthof. Though Okwui Enezor notably tried to subvert the euro-centric approach documenta had taken, he instigated a series of five platforms before the Documenta11 in Vienna, Berlin, New Delhi, St Lucia, and Lagos, in an attempt to take documenta into a new post-colonial, borderless space, from which experimental cultures could emerge. documenta 12 occupied five locations, including the Fridericianum, the Wilhelmshöhe castle park and the specially constructed "Aue-Pavillon", or meadow pavilion, designed by French firm Lacaton et Vassal.[24] At documenta (13) (2012), about a fifth of the works were unveiled in places like Kabul, Afghanistan, and Banff, Canada.[13]
There are also a number of works that are usually presented outside, most notably in Friedrichsplatz, in front of the Fridericianum, and the Karlsaue park. To handle the number of artworks at documenta IX, five connected temporary "trailers" in glass and corrugated metal were built in the Karlsaue.[25] For documenta (13), French architects Anne Lacaton and Jean-Philippe Vassal constructed the temporary "Aue-Pavillon" in the park.
Rahmenbau (1977) by Haus Rucker und Co.
A few of the works exhibited at various documentas remained as purchases in Kassel museums. They include 7000 Eichen by Joseph Beuys; Rahmenbau (1977) by Haus-Rucker-Co; Laserscape Kassel (1977) by Horst H. Baumann; Traumschiff Tante Olga (1977) by Anatol Herzfeld; Vertikaler Erdkilometer by Walter De Maria; Spitzhacke (1982) by Claes Oldenburg; Man walking to the sky (1992) by Jonathan Borofsky; and Fremde by Thomas Schütte (one part of the sculptures are installed on Rotes Palais at Friedrichsplatz, the other on the roof of the Concert Hall in Lübeck).
documenta archive
The extensive volume of material that is regularly generated on the occasion of this exhibition prompted Arnold Bode to create an archive in 1961. The heart of the archive’s collection comes from the files and materials of the documenta organization. A continually expanding video and image archive is also part of the collection as are the independently organized bequests of Arnold Bode and artist Harry Kramer.
Management
Visitors
In 1992, on the occasion of documenta IX, for the first time in the history of the documenta, more than half a million people traveled to Kassel.[26] The 2002 edition of documenta attracted 650,000 visitors, more than triple Kassel's population.[27] In 2007, documenta 12 drew 754,000 paying visitors, with more than one-third of the visitors coming from abroad and guests from neighboring Netherlands, France, Belgium and Austria among the most numerous.[28] In 2012, documenta (13) had 904,992 visitors.[21]

lumbung
Short concept by ruangrupa for documenta 15
"We want to create a globally oriented, cooperative, interdisciplinary art and culture platform that will remain effective beyond the 100 days of documenta fifteen. Our curatorial approach aims at a different kind of collaborative model of resource use—economically, but also in terms of ideas, knowledge, programs, and innovation."
ruangrupa’s central curatorial approach for documenta fifteen is based on the principles of collectivity, resource building, and equal sharing. They aim to appeal not just to an art audience but to a variety of communities, and to promote local commitment and participation. Their approach is based on an international network of local, community-based organizations from the art and other cultural contexts and can be outlined by the Indonesian term lumbung. lumbung, directly translatable as “rice barn,” is a collective pot or accumulation system used in rural areas of Indonesia, where crops produced by a community are stored as a future shared common resource and distributed according to jointly determind criteria. Using lumbung as a model, documenta fifteen is a collective resource pot, operating under the logics of the commons. It is an agglomeration of ideas, stories, (wo)manpower, time, and other shareable resources. At the center of lumbung is the imagination and the building of these collective, shared resources into new models of sustainable ideas and cultural practices. This will be fostered by residencies, assemblies, public activities, and the development of tools.
Interdisciplinarity is key in this process. It is where art meets activism, management, and networking to gather support, understand environments, and identify local resources. These elements then create actions and spaces, intertwine social relations and transactions; they slowly grow and organically find a public form. This is a strategy “to live in and with society.” It imagines the relations an art institution has with its community by being an active constituent of it. Strategies are then developed based on proximity and shared desires.
The main principles of the process are:
• Providing space to gather and explore ideas
• Collective decision making
• Non-centralization
• Playing between formalities and informalities
• Practicing assembly and meeting points
• Architectural awareness
• Being spatially active to promote conversation
• A melting pot for and from everyone’s thoughts, energies, and ideas

The Roll of Honour site refers to the War memorial in the churchyard. Although there is also a wooden memorial plaque in the church, this appears to be identical in practically every detail, other than adding that the Korean War individual died in 1952.

1901 Census 6 year Percy W is recorded at “The Rookery”, Aylsham, the town of his birth. His parents are John, (aged 42, an ordinary Agricultural Labourer from Erpingham) and Matilda, (aged 39 and from Wood Dalling). John and Matilda have another son, James R, (aged 6), as well as a Matilda’s son from an earlier relationship, John H Frostick, (aged 18).
On the Day This was the first day of Third Ypres, more commonly known as Passchendaele. The 10th Essex were in the 53rd Brigade, whose role was to build on the success of the initial attack. 53 Bde’s task was to leapfrog 30th Div once Glencorse Wood had been taken. Although the lead elements, (8th Suffolks and 6th Berkshires, were orderd in, they found the woods still in enemy hands and were very soon forced to dig in.

His 28 year old mother, Sophia, (marital status listed as Single), is also resident, along with possibly a sister of Sophia, Sarah, aged 22 who is described as “feeble-minded”. All were born in Cawston.
On the Day the 1st Norfolks were engaged in the battle of St Julian, (part of 2nd Ypres), which had seen the first use of poison gas on the Western Front. This part of 2nd Ypres was coming to an end, with troops being pulled back to more defensible lines after several holes had been punched in the Allied front. I can find no reference specifically to the 1st Norfolks on this date, but the 1st Bedfords, in the same Brigade were definitely in the front line and being subject to gas attack.

<On the DayOn 12th October 1915 the Battalion moved from billets to a line in front of the St Elie Quarries, taking over from the Coldstream Guards. The attack was planned to go ahead the following day under a smoke cloud with the Norfolks closing on the German trenches from both ends of their position thus straightening their line, their own trenches being in a semi-circle. The left side of the Battalion was also tasked with bombing a German communications trench. A bright sunny day with an ideal wind for moving the smoke towards the enemy positions, the artillery bombardment began at 12:00 and was intensive by 13:45. 54 heavy and 86 field howitzers and 286 field guns fired on enemy trenches in the area of the Hohenzollern Redoubt, Fosse 8, the Quarries, Gun Trench and the positions south to Chalk Pit Wood. It failed to cause sufficient damage to the enemy positions. The smoke barrage went wrong and ceased by 13:40, twenty minutes before the attack was launched at 14:00 and was thus very thin. German machine gun fire from in front and from the direction of Slag Alley, opposite the Norfolks right flank, enfiladed their attack. Whilst they gained a foothold in the Quarries and consolidated the position they were unable to advance further. In the battalions first serious engagement they lost 5 Officers killed or died of wounds and 6 wounded, and 66 other ranks killed, 196 wounded and 160 missing.

The first action at Gaza took place before dawn on 2 November when the 161st and 162nd Brigades of the 54th Division attacked the Turkish trench system in the sand dunes between Gaza and the sea. On this occasion it was a night attack by well prepared troops with overwhelming artillery support and armoured (six tanks). The British infantry advanced about 2 miles on a 5,000 yard front and held their gains against repeated Turkish counter-attacks. Casualty figures were heavy for both sides but this time favoured the British.

On the DayWESTERN FRONT
9 April-15 May Battle of Arras, including
23-24 April Second Battle of the Scarpe (Second phase of Arras Offensive), 63rd (RN) Division captured Gavrelle
The attack on Gavrelle was commenced on 23 April and was carried out by the 189th and 190th Brigades. At 4.45 a.m. Nelson and Drake battalions went over the top under cover of an artillery barrage. The first line of German trenches was quickly taken, and an hour later the attack was ceased at the edge of the village.
The artillery barrage was relocated across the village, which was reduced to rubble. Other battalions from the brigade were moved forward. House to house fighting led to the taking of Gavrelle, at the cost of 1,500 casualties.
Virtually all the remaining reservists of the original Royal Naval Division lost their lives at Gavrelle. They were the veterans who had survived the fighting at Gallipoli and at the Ancre.

On the Day 19th April 1917 During the 2nd Battle of Gaza,
Facing the Tank Redoubt was the 161st Brigade of the 54th Division. To their right were the two Australian battalions (1st and 3rd) of the Imperial Camel Corps Brigade who had dismounted about 4,000 yards from their objective. As the infantry went in to attack at 7.30am they were joined by a single tank called "The Nutty" which attracted a lot of shell fire. The tank followed a wayward path towards the redoubt on the summit of a knoll where it was fired on point blank by four field guns until it was stopped and set alight in the middle of the position.
The infantry and the 1st Camel Battalion, having suffered heavy casualties on their approach, now made a bayonet charge against the trenches. About 30 "Camels" and 20 of the British infantry (soldiers of the 5th (territorial Battalion of the Norfolk Regiment) reached the redoubt, then occupied by around 600 Turks who immediately broke and fled towards their second line of defences to the rear.
The British and Australians held on unsupported for about two hours by which time most had been wounded. With no reinforcements at hand and a Turkish counter-attack imminent, the survivors endeavoured to escape back to their own lines.

As the infantry went in to attack at 7.30am they were joined by a single tank called "The Nutty" which attracted a lot of shell fire. The tank followed a wayward path towards the redoubt on the summit of a knoll where it was fired on point blank by four field guns until it was stopped and set alight in the middle of the position.
The infantry and the 1st Camel Battalion, having suffered heavy casualties on their approach, now made a bayonet charge against the trenches. About 30 "Camels" and 20 of the British infantry (soldiers of the 5th (territorial Battalion of the Norfolk Regiment) reached the redoubt, then occupied by around 600 Turks who immediately broke and fled towards their second line of defences to the rear.
The British and Australians held on unsupported for about two hours by which time most had been wounded. With no reinforcements at hand and a Turkish counter-attack imminent, the survivors endeavoured to escape back to their own lines.
To the right (west) of Tank Redoubt, the 3rd Camel Battalion, advancing in the gap between two redoubts, actually made the furthest advance of the battle, crossing the Gaza-Beersheba Road and occupying a pair of low hills (dubbed "Jack" and "Jill"). As the advances on their flanks faltered, the "Camels" were forced to retreat to avoid being isolated.

1901 Census The 4 year old Ernest J is living at Buxton Road, Aylsham, the town of his birth. His parents are Leonard J, (34 and a Road Surveyor from Hevingham), and Louisa E, (aged 30 and from Highfield, Sussex). The Prestons also have a daughter, Florence M, aged 1. Although I only have access to the high-level search on the 1911 census, Ernest is still recorded in the District of Aylsham. I can only assume he either moved to Norwich to seek work or that the Ernest James on the RoH site is a different individual.
