The scientific name of (Ruddy) Turnstone is Arenaria interpres. Arenaria means "of the sand" (an arena was originally sand) which is the first mistake as Turnstones typically inhabit rocky coasts like this one, where they turn over stones and seaweed in search of food. Now for the tricky part; interpres means interpreter or translator (hence my title). When Linnaeus visited Gotland (Sweden) in 1741 he mistakenly understood that the locals called this species "Tolk", and in standard Swedish tolk means interpreter, so he gave this bird a Latin name for interpreter. But in Gotland dialect the word tolk meant stalk (or legs) and that was the name they used for Redshank, which also has bright orange legs and which may have led to Linnaeus's confusion (Here's a Redshank): www.flickr.com/photos/timmelling/52575281493/in/photolist Linnaeus formally described Turnstone in 1758 in his Systema Naturae. Once a valid scientific name has been given it remains even if it is nonsensical and based on errors. So Turnstone is still named interpres. But the generic (family) name can change, as we learn more about which birds are related or not, latterly through DNA studies. And the vernacular names can change too, but the public sometimes do not embrace such changes. I don't hear many people refer to Pied Avocets or Eurasian Magpies. Although Ruddy Turnstone is used a bit more to differentiate it from the American Black Turnstone, especially as both species occur in America.
One final thing, for brevity I used the term Latin name in the title, but I should have used scientific name, because such names can be from Greek or Latin.

While there was once an actual light in the Tabusintac area in the early 1900's known as the Tabusintac Gully Lighthouse, it is not known if this faux light is close to the location of the original lighthouse.

Prior to the construction of the Interpretive Center, excavations revealed the location of over 80 structures and hundreds of pits and postholes. Careful analysis of the materials showed how this neighborhood changed from AD 1000-1200. House basins got shallower, the house got larger, and the arrangement of the changed from a linear pattern to clustering of houses around family courtyards. Storage changed from shared "granaries" to storage pits inside the houses, perhaps as resources became scarcer and there was less sharing.
You can interpret the colour several ways, but I can tell you the fit is excellent and this dress is delightfully easy to wear.

Ship Harbor Cannery Ruins
Anacortes was often referred to as "The salmon canning capital of the world." The first cannery in Anacortes was opened in 1894, and by 1915 eleven canneries were built along the Guemes Channel on the north shore of Fidalgo Island.
"Ship Harbor was the site of two major canneries. The first cannery on Fidalgo Island was opened at Ship Harbor in 1894 the Fidalgo Island Packing Company. It would become one of the largest salmon canneries in the world. It later changed its name to Fidalgo Island Canning Company before closing in 1933 and moving to Canada. Two of its well-known labels were "Holly Leaf" brand salmon "packed fresh on Puget Sound" and "Wild Rose" brand. Another of the several local canning companies, Anacortes Canning Company, was also located at Ship Harbor. Alaska Packer Association purchased it in 1904 and it closed in 1934.
The banner year for the Anacortes canneries was 1913, when 39 million salmon were caught. Anacortes canneries alone did more than $3 million worth of business that year. There were later brief bursts of abundance, but overall, salmon runs permanently dwindled.
The many cannery buildings at Ship Harbor are all gone now except for some pilings, a few of the buildings stood there, abandoned, until the 1980's, when they were finally torn down. At one time, the cannery community at Ship Harbor included, in addition to the main cannery buildings and warehouses, bunkhouses and mess halls for workers, an office building, a general store, a blacksmith shop, a carpentry and paint shop, houses, sheds, pig pens, chicken coops, net houses and net racks."

Un maestro de secundaria interpretó a Cristo
Por Paulo Alvarado, de www.elnorte.com
Monterrey, México (21 marzo 2008).- Unas 5 mil personas asistieron hoy al Viacrucis de la Basílica de Nuestra Señora de Guadalupe.
Una de las representaciones del Calvario con más afluencia, que recorre las calles de la Colonia Independencia, se caracterizó este año por un ánimo disperso entre los asistentes.
Con la cruz a cuestas, el paso del maestro de secundaria Lino Rocha Gutiérrez fue castigado por dos solados romanos que azotaron sus látigos de cuero contra la espalda del Nazareno.
"¡Pobrecito!", "¡ya déjalo!" y "¡carga tú la cruz!", fueron las expresiones más comunes que despertó el sufrimiento de Rocha Gutiérrez entre los asistentes.
Por momentos, el Cristo interrumpió sus pasos al Calvario, pues la cruz pesó 100 kilos.

"Interprétation symbolique
Tours de ventilation
Forme de masque, comparé par Carandell au roi.
Forme de coupe, comparée à la reine.
Le philosophe et écrivain Josep Maria Carandell i Robusté propose dans son ouvrage La Pedrera une interprétation symbolique du toit de la Casa Milà basée sur des concepts religieux, cosmogoniques et littéraires. Selon cet auteur, le toit serait un auto sacramental (une œuvre dramatique célébrant la Fête-Dieu), une mise en scène de l’origine de la vie et de la famille, sublimée par la révélation divine. Selon cette hypothèse, le caractère théâtral de la terrasse proviendrait de deux œuvres dramatiques, La vie est un songe de Pedro Calderón de la Barca, comme dans le vestibule de l'édificenote 14, ainsi que Hamlet de Shakespeare, tandis que l'aspect changeant et sinueux du toit s'inspirerait des Métamorphoses d'Ovide. En Catalogne, la présence dans les processions de géants et de grosses têtes (ainsi que de figures animales comme des dragons et des serpents) est traditionnelle63, et Gaudí aurait repris cette idée pour le toit de la Pedrera. Ainsi, les sorties d'escaliers seraient géantes, chacune assumant un rôle dans l’auto sacramental : les principaux personnages, situés sur le chanfrein, en forme de dragons enroulés sur eux-mêmes, seraient les parents ; il y aurait la Mère à droite, qui est à la fois la mère nature, la mère de famille, la personnification de la Vierge Marie et allégoriquement, de la Vie, tandis qu'à gauche il y aurait le Père, Dieu le Créateur et allégorie du Pouvoirnote 19 ; les autres seraient les enfants, en deux paires, symbolisés par des fenêtres triangulaires placées aux pieds des parents, les hommes au-dessus, et les femmes en dessous. Celui du côté du Passeig de Gràcia serait le « guerrier enfant », bon et héroïque, qui correspond à Saint-Michel, Saint-Georges ou Sigismond, le protagoniste de La vie est un songe, alors que Jésus serait en fin de compte et, allégoriquement, la Sagesse. Celui qui donne sur la cour des voisins serait le « fils sceptique », témoin trouvé nu, qui correspondrait à Hamlet, hésitant et le caractère irrésolu ; son équivalent, également déshabillé, serait la « fille folle », ce qui correspondrait à Ophélie de la pièce de Shakespeare ou Rosa dans celle de Calderon. Celle de la rue de Provence serait la « fille sensible », dont les vertus supposent une étoile, la princesse de La vie est un songe, telle une allégorie de l'amour et du Saint-Esprit, comme en témoignent par leur forme trois colombes entrelacées. Enfin, Carandell identifie les deux tours de ventilation comme le roi et la reine, le premier représenté par un masque, ce qui correspondrait au Claudius de Shakespeare ou au Basilio de Calderón, et la seconde représentée par une coupe, symbolisant Gertrude, la reine adultère et mère de Hamlet, personnification de la convoitise"....
