What light beyond my window, shines
For here I stand a muse
Painted upon this faded canvas
My skin weathered, dried, and cracked
Beneath the summer sun
What statue carved in stone
Would stand as tall and proud
Beneath the sky so blue
No rustic words etched
Upon the parchment
Nor carved upon the stone
Would speak such truths
Beneath the sky so true

SS Red Oak Victory, a Boulder Victory-class cargo ship built during World War II, is the only survivor of the 747 ships built at the Kaiser Richmond Shipyards. She is one of only three surviving Victory ships, larger and faster than the earlier Liberty ships.
Launched as SS Red Oak Victory, she was named in honor of Red Oak, Iowa, a town that had suffered a disproportionate number of casualties during the war. She was then commissioned as a U.S. Navy cargo ship, USS Red Oak Victory (AK-235), serving as an ammunition ship in the South Pacific until the end of World War II.
Red Oak Victory was crewed by the U.S. Merchant Marine during activations in support of the Korean War, the Vietnam War, and several international relief operations.
Today she is a museum ship, berthed at what remains of the Kaiser Richmond shipyard.

On the orders of Nero, this event led to the closure of the amphitheatre for ten years.
It formed part of a frieze depicting gladiatorial combat, and faithfully reproduces places and events in the tiniest detail and with expressive immediacy. The lower part of the panel is occupied by the stalls of streetsellers and a few trees that offer shade to small groups of women passing by. The centre of the fresco is dominated by the amphitheatre; it is possible to recognise the large staircase giving access to the summa cavea while inside there are figures of people fighting on the steps and in the arena, and the velarium, surreally leaning against two towers of the town walls that flank the building. To the right is the palaestra, which is similarly depicted both inside and outside with the large natatio; the riot takes place between the palaestra and the amphitheatre, and to the left of the latter building where it has spread outside its confines and is recounted by means of figures who repeat the type of the wounded person who has fallen to the ground of those escaping with arms raised and those engaged in hand-to-hand fighting. On the wall of the palaestra, when the fresco was discovered, the following words were clearly legible: "D. Lucretio fel(i)citer" in Roman lettering and "Satri(o) Oualenti O(g)ousto Ner(oni) phelikit(er)" in Greek lettering, a reference to two famous show-organisers. The attention paid to reproducing realistic details, the absence of perspective not only for the buildings but also in the proportions of the figures, which are the same size regardless of their position in space, and the choice of showing buildings from above, evoke the popular Roman art, and are also linked to the scenes present on the coclid columns of Rome as well as triumphal painting, which unfortunately has survived only through historical sources.

Just spent a great weekend camping in eastern Oklahoma with my wife and her sister's family. Wouldn't you know it that I had to follow the KCS mainline for 50 miles. We easily stayed ahead of the KCS 4056 South for a depot wedgie at Stilwell, OK.

Vienna 1, The Franciscan Church
The Franciscans go back to St. Francis of Assisi and thus the 13th Century. They were founded as a mendicant orders but soon the arose the question how literally one should take the declaration of poverty. Was it allowed to make financial provision for elderly or sick brothers? Finally it came to the segmentation of the faith community, the more liberal Minoriten (Friars Minor Conventual) made their own order, while the Franciscans followed the old conventions. 1453 came the first Franciscan, John of Capistrano, to Vienna.
He founded the first Franciscan monastery in what is now 6th District. But the monks had to flee when the Turks besieged Vienna in 1529 and the monastery burned down. It took until 1589 until the city of Vienna gave them the at that time vacant monastery together with appendant church. The house, in its place now stands the monastery had already been donated in 1306 by wealthy citizens - namely for "loose women" who wanted give up their trade and convert themselves.
1476 was at the Weichenburg (hence Weihburggasse) inaugurated a church with seven altars, where formerly a "Pfarrheusl (small parsonage)" had stood for the soul welfare of the female residents. At the time of the Reformation, however, moral values in this house went downhill. 1553, the Foundation was dissolved, but it took yet until 1572 before the last resident had died. For eight years, the building was then an educational establishment for girls of poor people.
When the Franciscans now had got the property, they started in 1603 with a reconstruction of the church, which was consecrated in 1611. 1614, the foundation stone was laid for the new monastery.
The statues on the west facade are left Francis of Assisi and Anthony of Padua right. In the middle, on the pediment of the west portal of the Church stands Jerome, protector of the church. He is surrounded by two angle putti.
But let's go inside the church. Maria with the ax is the altarpiece above the high altar. The statue was carved in 1505 from lime wood and has its own story. She comes from the Green Mountain (Grünberg) in Bohemia, which was under the control the Sternberg family. Since the family in the meantime had become Protestant, it wanted to burn the statue. She were thrown into the fire - but the next day she stood unharmed again in the chapel. Now, the executioner was called who should dismember the effigy. However, even that was impossible, because the ax stuck in the shoulder of Mary and it was not possible to get it out. There it is still today. (You have to look closely, but then you see the great ax with slightly curved stem.) But that's not enough. A few years later the Madonna was lost in the gamble by a gegenreformierten (counter-reformed) Sternberg. The new owner, the Polish Baron Turnoffsky gave she in 1607 the Franciscan monastery. Exactly 100 years later, she got her current stand on the high altar.
The stone structure between altar and the statue of the Madonna also contains a crucifix, which dates from the beginning of the 17th Century. The wooden statues left and right represent the Saints Jerome respectively Francis and are typical examples of the so-called Franciscan carving school. It operated 1690-1730 and was run by lay brothers. The overall concept for the high altar dates back to the Jesuit Andrea dal Pozzo.
A special attraction is the organ by Hans Wöckherl that was already built in 1642 and today is the oldest organ in Vienna. It is, however, disappeared from the visible church, because it is behind the high altar and is only shown every Friday between 15.00 und 15.30 clock. In addition, one demans for that six euro entry...
The single-nave church has to both sides side chapels, of them I want to show two.
On the left we see the Magdalene Chapel, which was consecrated already in 1614 for the first time. 1644 and 1722, however, followed Neustiftungen (new foundings). The stucco decoration stems from 1644. The paintings in the vault are much more recent, from 1893. The altarpiece depicts the grieving Mary Magdalene under the Cross. It was created in 1725 by Carlo Innocenzo Carlone. The image above shows Veronica's handkerchief with the face of Christ. It was painted by Wolfram Koeberl and in 1974 installed. The statues beside the altar represent the Virgin Mary and John the Baptist. The two above chapels are provided with food grid, so that one could give Communion here.
An Immaculata chapel (pictured above right) is there since the existence of the church, but this was rebuilt in 1722. Previously, since 1642, there was a Michael altar here. From this period dates still the stucco decor on the ceiling. The altarpiece is by Johann Georg Schmidt, who painted it in 1721. The lateral statues depict the Saint Joachim and the mother of Mary.
Also the Capistrano Chapel, which was founded in 1723, is worth mentioning. The lateral stucco decor shows on the left side (picture) the glorification of St. John Capistrano, who, as I said, was the first Franciscan in Vienna. Right you can see him as a standard-bearer of Christian doctrine in the wars against the Turks. Both stucco images date from the time of the foundation. The altarpiece by Franz Xaver Wagenschön originated in 1761 and shows Capistrano in a scene from 1451, in Brescia when he healed a possessed man.
In the picture we see also the statue of Saint George, as he is killing the (admittedly small) dragon.
On the other side of the chapel is the Holy Florian, while Clara and Theresa stand next to the altar. Behind the altar there is a reliquary in glass from about 1720, in which we see a wax image of the Holy Hilaria. The relic shall be imbedded in the wax. Hilaria is rather unknown, but she was a martyr who was converted by Bishop Narcissus. She died in the year 304 in Augsburg, at the behest of the governor Gaius, because she did not want to renounce the Christian faith. About the nature of death, there are different opinions.
In the church there is a plaque that claims that she was burned at the grave of her daughter, while the Holy Encyclopedia states that she was enclosed in her house and this was then set on fire.
In the chapel opposite, the Chapel of the Good Shepherd, there is also a glass coffin with a relic. This is the skeleton of the Felix Puer wearing the uniform of a Roman Centurion.
As a counterpart to the pulpit, this just opposite, you will find the monument of Johann Nepomuk. We see how he flows on the water of the Vltava river after he was thrown in Prague there. He actually was called "John from Nepomuk" in Czech "ne Pomuk". The wife of Emperor Wenceslas IV is said to have chosen him as confessor. The Emperor wanted to know then what she had confessed, but Johann Nepomuk did not betray the seal of confession and was therefore thrown into the water. The Empress had then an appearance of five stars.
(We see she also in the water of the monument.) These stars indicated were one could find the body. So much for the legend.
The fact is that Johann Nepomuk was tortured by the king and thrown into the Vltava. The activating moment was a dispute over a new monastery between the emperor and the archbishop of Prague, in which John Nepomuk was trampled underfoot ...
The pulpit was built in 1726 and was executed by the Franciscan carving school. At the parapet there are wooden reliefs of Matthew, Mark and Luke. The relief of the fourth evangelist, John, is attached to the pulpit door. At the parapet you further can see statues of Capistrano and Bonaventura, while on the sounding board are sitting Anthony of Padua and Berhardin of Siena. At the top stands the freeze image of Francis of Assisi.
The pews were 1727 - 1729 by brother Johann Gottfried Hartmann built and carved.
The remarkable 15th century 'Nine Orders of Angels' window in the south aisle of All Saints North Street. Each of the nine panels portrays an angel from the nine separate orders, a popular subject in medieval England. Each is leading a procession of the worthy, consisting largely of rather well to do looking individuals. The window was reconstructed from fragments in the 1960s based on a detailed 17th century sketch of the complete composition before it suffered damage in the following centuries and was reduced to a patchwork of fragments. The recovery of this window using its surviving elements and plain coloured glass for the missing pieces is itself a remarkable achievement.
All Saints North Street in York is the city's most famous parish church, renowned for the wealth of its medieval glass, mostly of 15th century date.
The church itself is distinguished by its slender octagonal tower and spire and an interior of three aisles equal in height and width, with the chancel defined only by furnishings and a more ornate roof, carved with medieval angel figures.
The fine medieval stained glass fills most of the windows, some in more fragmentary condition whilst many are complete, including the best known in the north aisle, the Acts of Mercy and the 'Prykke of Conscience' windows.
The church is normally kept open and welcoming to visitors.

I am having trouble with memory on my computer, making editing very difficult, if not impossible, so all these Kentish church images from May are un-edited, I may revisit if I get a new computer or find out what is wrong with this one, but I get flash player crashing messages, and even the most simple of editing can take 5 minutes.
--------------------------------------------------------------
and on to the last day of May 2014.
In total we visited so many churches this day, any of which I have been to before, but this one was something of a surprise. A surprise in that I did not realise the church was actually there.
I must have been through New Romney dozens of times, and never noticed the might tower of St Nicholas, and so when Simon suggested visiting it, i was confused as I new of the church at Old Romney, but St Nicholas.
We consulted with maps, and found it, so after arriving in the town, we turned off the main road and parked opposite. And there is was, a huge church, and one which was giving what seemed like a thanksgiving dinner for benefactors.
we rushed round, getting our shots, before the great and the good arrived.
St Nicholas is on a grand scale, in terms of Kentish churches, and is a wonder at the interior space available.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
New Romney is one of the "Cinque Ports" of the southern English coast founded by William the Conqueror in 1066 AD. These five towns - Romney, Hythe, Dover, Sandwich and Hastings - resisted William's initial landings until he bribed them with trading privileges. Romney was the lead port of the five.
Cinque Port merchants also enjoyed the right to carry the canopy over the king at his coronation and sit next to him at the coronation banquet. These privileges have since gone the way of history, but the towns still have special duties at coronations.
The Church of St. Nicholas was begun by Bishop Odo, brother-in-law of William the Conqueror, in 1086. But most of it dates from the early 12th century. Constructed of Caen stone by masons from Normandy, the church consisted originally of a nave with clerestory and low-pitched side aisles.
It is quite hard to imagine today since the coast is now a couple miles away, but at that time the church stood at the head of the harbor and ships were moored at the edge of the churchyard. The tower and nave were regularly crowded with traders conducting business.
In 1287, the great South Coast storm filled the port with four feet of sand and shingle and singlehandedly moved the Rother estuary west to Rye. New Romney was covered in a deep layer of debris and went into decline. But the church survived it all, and still bears witness to the disaster through its below-ground entrance and stained pillars.
In the 13th and 14th centuries, the church was enlarged with a Gothic chancel and two side chapels at the east end. The side aisles were also raised, with the result that the clerestory windows no longer let in sunlight.
The great west tower of St. Nicholas Church is a major landmark on Romney Marsh. Its base forms a west porch, from which rises four tiers of Norman blind arches and windows. The bottom and top tiers are decorated with corbel tables, carved with open-mouthed faces of humans and beasts. A Green Man or two can be spotted among them.
The Norman west door has four orders of decoratively carved arches and three capitals on each side, but no surviving figurative carvings. The door is approached by descending stairs due to the raised ground level caused by the 1287 storm.
Entrance is by the north door, which leads into the porch beneath the tower. The tower is supported by splendid Norman arches of three orders with leafy capitals, and roofed with a timber ceiling. A Gothic pointed arch on the east side leads into the nave.
The interior is in need of restoration - there is much peeling plaster in the side aisles - but the church is much loved and used, and fundraising efforts are currently underway.
The nave is composed of four bays of stout Norman piers and round arches, with a single Gothic bay at the east end. The clerestory windows now open into the side aisles.
At the east end is the Gothic chancel, with three bays of pointed arches, and two side chapels. Rather uniquely, each of the three sanctuaries has its own altar, piscina and sedilia.
The three east windows were inserted in the early 14th century, with tracery described by Simon Jenkins as "both refined and robust." The glass is from the 19th and 20th centuries, as is the case throughout the church. The central window features portraits of St. Nicholas, Christ in Majesty, and biblical scenes involving boats.
South of the chancel is St. Stephen's Chapel, with the table tomb of Richard Stuppeny (d.1526). Until 1885, council meetings and elections were held around this tomb. On the south wall of the chapel hangs a plaque in memory of Isaac Warquin, a Huguenot who fled persecution in France in 1689. He lived and practiced medicine in New Romney and was respected for his Christian charity.
The north chapel, the Lady Chapel, contains three table tombs. The larger one on the left bears a brass memorial of 1610 to the Smyth family.

wonderful church of grand proportions, the exterior of which is best seen from the east where the three reticulated windows chancel and chapels of the Decorated period may be clearly seen. The nave is Norman, with interesting decoration on the arcades and solid circular piers. The church was owned by Potigny Abbey and in the thirteenth and fourteenth centuries it invested heavily in rebuilding the east end, with fine octagonal pillars, piscinae and sedilia in each of the three eastern chapels. Between the chancel and chapels are hagioscope openings. It is interesting that the floor remains unrestored, with brick, tile and old ledger slabs. This is the result of the intervention of the Society for the Protection of Ancient Buildings when John Oldrid Scott started over-restoring the church in 1878. The early aisles must have been very low as the Norman clerestory windows rise straight from the top of the arcade. The best place to see Norman work at New Romney is in the main west door where the zigzag decoration has few parallels in the county.

A quick hand over of the day's timetable from engine driver to station staff at Dymchurch, Kent, on the Romney, Hythe and Dymchurch Railway. Taken with a Nikon D90 (thank goodness for 3D focus tracking - the train was moving quickly!).
Took an early morning walk to the Bogey Hole to record the sunrise there. What a fantastic place! It was simply beautiful the other morning! Most definitely not a place to go bathing as the tide comes in!! The Bogey Hole was constructed by convicts under the orders of Commandant Morisset in about 1820 for his own personal use. Morisset was Commandant of Newcastle from 1819 to 1822. It was known, originally as the "Commandants Baths". The name "Bogey Hole" was applied afterwards and comes from the indigenous word meaning "to bathe". It is still a very popular site with the locals.

Vietnam factory workers laid off as West cuts imports
Phan Thi Nhieu has spent a decade assembling shoes for worldwide brands such as Timberland and K-Swiss, but she is now among tens of thousands of Vietnamese factory workers laid off as Western consumers cut spending.
Almost half a million others have been forced to work fewer hours as orders fall in the Southeast Asian country, one of the world's largest exporters of clothing, footwear and furniture.
The cost-of-living crisis in Europe and the United States -- major markets for Vietnamese-produced goods -- has seen the buying power of Western shoppers plunge.
Women factory workers, who make up 80 percent of the labour force in Vietnam's garment industry, have been hit the hardest by the knock-on effect.
Early last month, 31-year-old Nhieu -- who lives in a nine-square-metre (100 square feet) room in Ho Chi Minh City with her two young sons and husband -- was told she was no longer needed at Ty Hung Company, a Taiwanese shoemaker that supplies big Western labels.
"They told us they did not have enough orders," she said of Ty Hung's announcement that it would fire 1,200 of its 1,800 staff.
"I was so, so shocked and so scared, I cried, but I can do nothing, I have to accept it."
The job earned Nhieu just $220 a month in an expensive city where the average monthly income is $370, but the money was regular and a step up from the mushroom picking she did as a teenager in the heat of the Mekong Delta.
- 'Worse than Covid' -
Now, with just two months' severance pay to survive on, Nhieu must feed her family on a few dollars a day, and her kids are struggling to get enough to eat.
"We have no one to help us. I will have to get us through this on my own."
Since September, more than 1,200 companies -- mostly foreign businesses in the garment, footwear and furniture sectors -- have been forced to sack staff or cut working hours, according to the Vietnam General Confederation of Labour.
Compared with last year, orders are down 30-40 percent from the United States and 60 percent from Europe, where inflation and energy bills have soared because of the war in Ukraine.
More than 470,000 workers have had their hours slashed in the last four months of the year while about 40,000 people have lost their jobs -- 30,000 of them women aged 35 or older, the confederation said.
Taiwanese giant Pouyuen, a Nike shoe producer, has put 20,000 of its workers on paid leave in rotation, while reports said Vietnam's largest foreign investor, Samsung Electronics, has started reducing its smartphone production at factories in the north.
The situation is bleaker than during the Covid-19 pandemic, say workers, who were helped out with food donations when strict quarantine measures forced them to stay home -- and were quickly in demand again once restrictions lifted at the end of 2021.
"It's not easy to find a new job like before (following the pandemic)," said Nguyen Thi Thom, 35, who was laid off from a South Korean garment firm that makes clothes for US retail giant Walmart.
- No dream -
Since her factory work finished, Thom, who has three young children, spends her days on the streets of a shiny new suburban district of Ho Chi Minh City, selling dried noodles, shrimp sauce and oranges to passers-by.
The slowdown has come as a shock because export businesses in Vietnam were running at "their fullest capacity" for the first half of 2022, according to Tran Viet Anh, deputy head of Ho Chi Minh City's Business Association.
"At the start of the third quarter, due to global inflation, consumption demands have shrunk, leading to the suspension of orders... and huge stock surplus," he told AFP.
But the downturn in Vietnam will likely only be temporary, Viet Anh added.
A cut in production during the pandemic led to a shortage of goods in the first six months of 2022, and the situation will likely repeat a year on.
Viet Anh said that "2023 will be a period where we increase production to compensate".
Until then, women like Nhieu and Thom, who form the backbone of a low-paid workforce that has helped Vietnam become a key manufacturing hub seen as an alternative to China, must find another way to keep their families afloat.
"I have never had the luxury of dreaming what I want from life. I have only one wish, of earning enough to survive," Nhieu said.

This artistic provocation seeks to estimate the orders of magnitude of critical ecosystem services fundamental to all planetary life processes. It is common to use economic metaphors, which entail specific understandings of value, to describe our relationships with society, the world, and the biosphere. Today’s prevailing economic conventions are unable to recognize the intrinsic value of the ecosystems on which all life depends. In cultures overdetermined by concepts from economics, we are left without adequate discursive instruments to socially or politically address the importance of ecosystem contribution to life on Earth. This experiment consists of 1 square meter of wheat, cultivated in a closed environment. Critical inputs such as water, light, heat, and nutrients are measured, monitored, and displayed for the public. This procedure makes palpable the immense scale of ecosystem contributions and provides a speculative reference for a reckoning of the undervalued and over exploited “work of the biosphere.”
