I love the detail of her face - lighter and not oxidized, and it looks like she's crying. But maybe that's just me.

Holly Springs, MS
On December 10, 2013, Preserve Marshall County Holly Springs announced that Chalmers Institute is the recipient of $80,000 in grant funding from the 2013 Community Heritage Preservation grant program.
Chalmers, built in 1837, has been largely abandoned since the 1980s. It is best recognized as having been the first chartered university in Mississippi. It is currently being rehabilitated into a functional space for the community.
The grant will be used for the replacement of the roof, and the rehabilitation of the interior of Chalmers Institute.

"RED CROSS FETE AT KURTING
INGLEWOOD.—A large gathering took place at Kurting on Wednesday afternoon. The occasion being an effort in
aid of the Red Cross. The affair, which was formally opened by
Cr W.C.J. Kelly, one of the representatives of the
South Riding of the Korong Shire Council, took the form of a sports meeting, with all the other branches for
money making usual at such efforts, and was in every
respect a success. The arrangements reflected credit on the hon secretary, Mr E. Morse.
A "queen" competition resulted in Miss H. McGurgan being "crowned." Her income from the event was £20/10/, while
the net total from this branch of the effort was £89 . The proceedings were extended into the evening, when a concert was held in the new hall just erected at an expense of about £330, and which is to be used as a Mechanics' Institute and for other public purposes. The honor of declaring it open fell to Cr. J. J. O'Brien, another South Riding member of the Korong Shire.
Like the afternoon effort, the concert and ball which followed, were thoroughly satisfactory events."
The Ayalon Institute was a secret ammunition factory disguised as part of a kibbutz to fool the British back in the 1940s. Jewish people used the factory in their efforts to fight for the independent state of Israel. Organizers went to extreme measures to build and sustain this secret factory within the kibbutz. Between 1945 and 1948, the Ayalon Institute produced more than 2 million 9mm bullets.
During the British mandate, the Jewish people began planning ways to make machinery and guns to fight for independence. While manufacturing guns didn’t prove to be that difficult, it was very challenging to make bullets for the guns.
So, a group of Jewish people decided to build a ammunitions factory under a kibbutz, which is a communal area of land designed for a specific purpose, such as farming. The area was near a British base. In 1945, the group built structures on the surface that resembled a kibbutz and in about three weeks, they built an entire ammunitions factory eight meters underground. The factory was about the size of a tennis court.
The factory stopped operating in 1948, three years after being built. In 1987, the factory was restored and turned into a museum that is now open to the public.

Three pieces of carving from antiquity, about which not a great deal is known. This is a torso of Venus, from the 1st century AD, probably a copy and a study for a much larger piece.

We saw these strange 'creatures' as we left the A'dam Lookout. They had come out of the EYE building. JJ was more daring than me and went closer! I was feeling the effects of the Heineken, so decided to keep a safe distance!

The Smithsonian Institution, established in 1846 "for the increase and diffusion of knowledge," is a group of museums and research centers administered by the United States government. Originally organized as the "United States National Museum," that name ceased to exist as an administrative entity in 1967. Termed "the nation's attic" for its eclectic holdings of 137 million items, the Institution's Washington, D.C. nucleus of nineteen museums, nine research centers, and zoo—many of them historical or architectural landmarks—is the largest such complex in the world. Additional facilities are located in Arizona, Maryland, New York City, Virginia, Panama and elsewhere, and 168 other museums are Smithsonian affiliates. The Institution's thirty million annual visitors are admitted without charge; funding comes from the Institution's own endowment, private and corporate contributions, membership dues, government support, and retail, concession and licensing revenues. Institution publications include Smithsonian and Air & Space magazines.
