CAPPADOCIA WORLD HERITAGE LIST :
www.whc.unesco.org/en/list/357
In a spectacular landscape, entirely sculpted by erosion, the Göreme valley and its surroundings contain rock-hewn sanctuaries that provide unique evidence of Byzantine art in the post-Iconoclastic period. Dwellings, troglodyte villages and underground towns – the remains of a traditional human habitat dating back to the 4th century – can also be seen there.
Brief synthesis
Located on the central Anatolia plateau within a volcanic landscape sculpted by erosion to form a succession of mountain ridges, valleys and pinnacles known as “fairy chimneys” or hoodoos, Göreme National Park and the Rock Sites of Cappadocia cover the region between the cities of Nevşehir, Ürgüp and Avanos, the sites of Karain, Karlık, Yeşilöz, Soğanlı and the subterranean cities of Kaymaklı and Derinkuyu. The area is bounded on the south and east by ranges of extinct volcanoes with Erciyes Dağ (3916 m) at one end and Hasan Dağ (3253 m) at the other. The density of its rock-hewn cells, churches, troglodyte villages and subterranean cities within the rock formations make it one of the world's most striking and largest cave-dwelling complexes. Though interesting from a geological and ethnological point of view, the incomparable beauty of the decor of the Christian sanctuaries makes Cappadocia one of the leading examples of the post-iconoclastic Byzantine art period.
It is believed that the first signs of monastic activity in Cappadocia date back to the 4th century at which time small anchorite communities, acting on the teachings of Basileios the Great, Bishop of Kayseri, began inhabiting cells hewn in the rock. In later periods, in order to resist Arab invasions, they began banding together into troglodyte villages or subterranean towns such as Kaymakli or Derinkuyu which served as places of refuge.
Cappadocian monasticism was already well established in the iconoclastic period (725-842) as illustrated by the decoration of many sanctuaries which kept a strict minimum of symbols (most often sculpted or tempera painted crosses). However, after 842 many rupestral churches were dug in Cappadocia and richly decorated with brightly coloured figurative painting. Those in the Göreme Valley include Tokalı Kilise and El Nazar Kilise (10th century), St. Barbara Kilise and Saklı Kilise (11th century) and Elmalı Kilise and Karanlık Kilise (end of the 12th – beginning of the 13th century).
Criterion (i): Owing to their quality and density, the rupestral sanctuaries of Cappadocia constitute a unique artistic achievement offering irreplaceable testimony to the post-iconoclastic Byzantine art period.
Criterion (iii): The rupestral dwellings, villages, convents and churches retain the fossilized image of a province of the Byzantine Empire between the 4th century and the arrival of the Seljuk Turks (1071). Thus, they are the essential vestiges of a civilization which has disappeared.
Criterion (v): Cappadocia is an outstanding example of a traditional human settlement which has become vulnerable under the combined effects of natural erosion and, more recently, tourism.
Criterion (vii): In a spectacular landscape dramatically demonstrating erosional forces, the Göreme Valley and its surroundings provide a globally renowned and accessible display of hoodoo landforms and other erosional features, which are of great beauty, and which interact with the cultural elements of the landscape.
Integrity
Göreme National Park and the Rock Sites of Cappadocia, having been extensively used and modified by man for centuries, is a landscape of harmony combining human interaction and settlement with dramatic natural landforms. There has been some earthquake damage to some of the cones and the pillars, but this is seen as a naturally occurring phenomenon. Overuse by tourists and some vandalism have been reported and some incompatible structures have been introduced.
The erosional processes that formed the distinctive conical rock structures will continue to create new fairy chimneys and rock pillars, however due to the rate of this process, the natural values of the property may still be threatened by unsustainable use. The cultural features, including rock-hewn churches and related cultural structures, mainly at risk of being undermined by erosion and other negative natural processes coupled with mass tourism and development pressures, can never be replaced. threats Some of the churches mentioned by early scholars such as C. Texier, H.G. Rott and Guillaume de Jerphanion are no longer extant.
Authenticity
The property meets the conditions of authenticity as its values and their attributes, including its historical setting, form, design, material and workmanship adequately reflect the cultural and natural values recognized in the inscription criteria.
Given the technical difficulties of building in this region, where it is a matter of hewing out structures within the natural rock, creating architecture by the removal of material rather than by putting it together to form the elements of a building, the underlying morphological structure and the difficulties inherent in the handling of the material inhibited the creative impulses of the builders. This conditioning of human effort by natural conditions persisted almost unchanged through successive periods and civilizations, influencing the cultural attitudes and technical skills of each succeeding generation.
Protection and management requirements
The World Heritage property Göreme National Park and the Rock Sites of Cappadocia is subject to legal protection in accordance with both the Protection of Cultural and Natural Resources Act No. 2863 and the National Parks Act No. 2873. The entire territory between the cities of Nevşehir, Ürgüp and Avanos is designated as a National Park under the Act No. 2873. In addition, natural, archaeological, urban, and mixed archaeological and natural conservation areas, two underground towns, five troglodyte villages, and more than 200 individual rock-hewn churches, some of which contain numerous frescoes, have been entered into the register of immovable monuments and sites according to the Act No. 2863.
Legal protection, management and monitoring of the Göreme National Park and the Rock Sites of Cappadocia fall within the scope of national and regional governmental administrations. The Nevşehir and Kayseri Regional Conservation Councils are responsible for keeping the register of monuments and sites, including carrying out all tasks related to the legal protection of monuments and listed buildings and the approval to carry out any restoration-related works. They also evaluate regional and conservation area plans prepared by the responsible national and/or local (i.e. municipal) authorities.
Studies for revision and updating of the existing land use and conservation plan (Göreme National Park Long-term Development Plan) of 1981 were completed in 2003. The major planning decisions proposed were that natural conservation areas are to be protected as they were declared in 1976. Minor adjustments in the peripheral areas of settlements and spatial developments of towns located in the natural conservation sites including Göreme, Ortahisar, Çavuşin, Ürgüp and Mustafapaşa will be strictly controlled. In other words, the Plan proposes to confine the physical growth of these towns to recently established zones. Hotel developments will take into account the set limits for room capacities. Furthermore, the plan also suggested that local authorities should be advised to review land use decisions for areas that have been reserved for tourism developments in the town plans.
Preparation of conservation area plans for the urban and/or mixed urban-archaeological conservation sites within the historic sections of Göreme are in place and provide zoning criteria and the rules and guidelines to be used in the maintenance and restoration of listed buildings and other buildings which are not registered, but which are located within the historic zones. Similar planning studies for the towns of Ortahisar and Uçhisar are in place. Once finalised, a conservation area plan for the urban conservation area in Ürgüp will be in place. All relevant plans are kept up to date on a continuing basis.
Appropriate facilities aimed at improving the understanding of the World Heritage property have been completed for the subterranean towns of Kaymaklı and Derinkuyu, and are required for Göreme and Paşabağı.
Monuments in danger due to erosion, including the El Nazar, Elmalı, and Meryemana (Virgin Mary) churches, have been listed as monuments requiring priority action. Specific measures for their protection, restoration and maintenance are required at the site level.
While conservation plans and protection measures are in place for individual sites, it is recognised by the principal parties responsible for site management that an integrated Regional Plan for the Cappadocia Cultural and Tourism Conservation and Development Area is required to protect the World Heritage values of the property. Adequate financial, political and technical support is also required to secure the management of the propert

New Launch for M.R. Dairy Society. SUNRISE II.
About 1 p.m. on Thursday [20th November 1941] a new launch tied up at the public wharf at the end of Pultney Street, Taree, on her maiden run. It was Sunrise II, completed this month as a cream and milk collecting launch for the Manning River Co Op. Dairy Society, Mitchell's Island factory. This trim little craft was specially designed for cream collecting purposes by Mr. C. Goodsell, who has been engineer to the factory for many years and knows just what is required in the way of a launch. With a capacity of about 15 tons, this launch is 40 ft long with a beam of 12 ft. for the greater part of the ship. She is fitted with a heavy belting right round the hull at deck level, to prevent the planking of the ship being damaged by bumping wharves. The vessel is constructed of beech planking with hardwood (spotted gum) timbers. The bottom of the hull is copper covered, the keel covered with steel, and the stem post shod with brass shoes. On the deck alone, the Sunrise II will carry 300 8-gaI. cans. The awning is very substantially carried and is designed for the carriage of freight. Considering that the hull was only launched on the 5th November, Mr. Goodsell lost no time in fitting the engines in the launch and completing the deck housing, etc. She was built on the Society's property at the factory, and is considered one of the most suitable launches for the work that the society so far possessed. Mr. W. O. Ryan, of Oxley Island, is the builder, and that speaks for excellent and permanent work. He knows his calling from end to end and puts in faithful workmanship. Loaded, the launch will draw only about 3ft. 6ins., and is thus well suited for the work she is designed to do. Sunrise II is fitted with a 44 h.p. Kelvin full Diesel engine and has a good turn of speed, being faster than any launch yet the property of the M.R. Society. It is intended that this launch will eventually be used for the collection of cream and milk on the Lower Manning and around Oxley Island. Sunrise II was launched on November 5. The headmasters at Mitchell's Island and Croki brought their children over to see it. Mr. D. Cowan (chairman of directors) presided at the ceremony. Mrs. L. C. Parker (wife of the manager of the factory) performed the christening. The directors have commissioned Mr. Ryan to build them another launch, somewhat smaller than the one under notice, for the run to Taree and Wingham. Manning River Times and Advocate for the Northern Coast Districts of New South Wales Saturday - 22nd November 1941 .
The M.R. Co-op. Dairy Society's new launch, Sunrise II, is now in commission. The new vessel was specially designed for cream collecting by the factory engineer, Mr. C. Goodsell, and was built on the factory property, by Mr. W. O. Ryan, of Oxley Island, who has been commissioned by the directors to build a smaller launch to pick up between Taree and Wingham. The Sunrise II is 40 ft. long, 12 ft. beam and has a capacity of about 15 tons. She is powered with a 44 H.P. Kelvin- diesel engine and draws about 3 ½ ft. when loaded. The new boat is a trim little craft, and is ideal for the work she will have to perform.

1971
The end of an era.
A link with the Manning River's colourful past was severed on the first weekend in April 1971.
The last cream boat picked up milk from the river farms and returned to the Manning River Co-operative's wharf.
The run which lasted 72 years, was replaced by the gradual introduction of bulk milk vats throughout the district.
Milk is now placed into a refrigerator vat with a capacity of between 100 and 450 gallons. In the past they were placed in 10 gallon cans. Now instead of cans being collected from each farm daily, the bulk tankers need only call every second day. Supplement to the Manning River Times, Wed, 14th November , 1979.
Sold
Last cream boat on the Manning River

Plan des propriétés de la Fabrique de Cap-Santé, 1796
Description:
To settle the estate of Joseph Filion, Priest of Cap-Santé, surveyor Jeremy McCarthy prepared a survey of all the properties in the Fabrique.

In a spectacular landscape, entirely sculpted by erosion, the Göreme valley and its surroundings contain rock-hewn sanctuaries that provide unique evidence of Byzantine art in the post-Iconoclastic period. Dwellings, troglodyte villages and underground towns – the remains of a traditional human habitat dating back to the 4th century – can also be seen there.
Brief synthesis
Located on the central Anatolia plateau within a volcanic landscape sculpted by erosion to form a succession of mountain ridges, valleys and pinnacles known as “fairy chimneys” or hoodoos, Göreme National Park and the Rock Sites of Cappadocia cover the region between the cities of Nevşehir, Ürgüp and Avanos, the sites of Karain, Karlık, Yeşilöz, Soğanlı and the subterranean cities of Kaymaklı and Derinkuyu. The area is bounded on the south and east by ranges of extinct volcanoes with Erciyes Dağ (3916 m) at one end and Hasan Dağ (3253 m) at the other. The density of its rock-hewn cells, churches, troglodyte villages and subterranean cities within the rock formations make it one of the world's most striking and largest cave-dwelling complexes. Though interesting from a geological and ethnological point of view, the incomparable beauty of the decor of the Christian sanctuaries makes Cappadocia one of the leading examples of the post-iconoclastic Byzantine art period.
It is believed that the first signs of monastic activity in Cappadocia date back to the 4th century at which time small anchorite communities, acting on the teachings of Basileios the Great, Bishop of Kayseri, began inhabiting cells hewn in the rock. In later periods, in order to resist Arab invasions, they began banding together into troglodyte villages or subterranean towns such as Kaymakli or Derinkuyu which served as places of refuge.
Cappadocian monasticism was already well established in the iconoclastic period (725-842) as illustrated by the decoration of many sanctuaries which kept a strict minimum of symbols (most often sculpted or tempera painted crosses). However, after 842 many rupestral churches were dug in Cappadocia and richly decorated with brightly coloured figurative painting. Those in the Göreme Valley include Tokalı Kilise and El Nazar Kilise (10th century), St. Barbara Kilise and Saklı Kilise (11th century) and Elmalı Kilise and Karanlık Kilise (end of the 12th – beginning of the 13th century).
Criterion (i): Owing to their quality and density, the rupestral sanctuaries of Cappadocia constitute a unique artistic achievement offering irreplaceable testimony to the post-iconoclastic Byzantine art period.
Criterion (iii): The rupestral dwellings, villages, convents and churches retain the fossilized image of a province of the Byzantine Empire between the 4th century and the arrival of the Seljuk Turks (1071). Thus, they are the essential vestiges of a civilization which has disappeared.
Criterion (v): Cappadocia is an outstanding example of a traditional human settlement which has become vulnerable under the combined effects of natural erosion and, more recently, tourism.
Criterion (vii): In a spectacular landscape dramatically demonstrating erosional forces, the Göreme Valley and its surroundings provide a globally renowned and accessible display of hoodoo landforms and other erosional features, which are of great beauty, and which interact with the cultural elements of the landscape.
Integrity
Göreme National Park and the Rock Sites of Cappadocia, having been extensively used and modified by man for centuries, is a landscape of harmony combining human interaction and settlement with dramatic natural landforms. There has been some earthquake damage to some of the cones and the pillars, but this is seen as a naturally occurring phenomenon. Overuse by tourists and some vandalism have been reported and some incompatible structures have been introduced.
The erosional processes that formed the distinctive conical rock structures will continue to create new fairy chimneys and rock pillars, however due to the rate of this process, the natural values of the property may still be threatened by unsustainable use. The cultural features, including rock-hewn churches and related cultural structures, mainly at risk of being undermined by erosion and other negative natural processes coupled with mass tourism and development pressures, can never be replaced. threats Some of the churches mentioned by early scholars such as C. Texier, H.G. Rott and Guillaume de Jerphanion are no longer extant.
Authenticity
The property meets the conditions of authenticity as its values and their attributes, including its historical setting, form, design, material and workmanship adequately reflect the cultural and natural values recognized in the inscription criteria.
Given the technical difficulties of building in this region, where it is a matter of hewing out structures within the natural rock, creating architecture by the removal of material rather than by putting it together to form the elements of a building, the underlying morphological structure and the difficulties inherent in the handling of the material inhibited the creative impulses of the builders. This conditioning of human effort by natural conditions persisted almost unchanged through successive periods and civilizations, influencing the cultural attitudes and technical skills of each succeeding generation.
Protection and management requirements
The World Heritage property Göreme National Park and the Rock Sites of Cappadocia is subject to legal protection in accordance with both the Protection of Cultural and Natural Resources Act No. 2863 and the National Parks Act No. 2873. The entire territory between the cities of Nevşehir, Ürgüp and Avanos is designated as a National Park under the Act No. 2873. In addition, natural, archaeological, urban, and mixed archaeological and natural conservation areas, two underground towns, five troglodyte villages, and more than 200 individual rock-hewn churches, some of which contain numerous frescoes, have been entered into the register of immovable monuments and sites according to the Act No. 2863.
Legal protection, management and monitoring of the Göreme National Park and the Rock Sites of Cappadocia fall within the scope of national and regional governmental administrations. The Nevşehir and Kayseri Regional Conservation Councils are responsible for keeping the register of monuments and sites, including carrying out all tasks related to the legal protection of monuments and listed buildings and the approval to carry out any restoration-related works. They also evaluate regional and conservation area plans prepared by the responsible national and/or local (i.e. municipal) authorities.
Studies for revision and updating of the existing land use and conservation plan (Göreme National Park Long-term Development Plan) of 1981 were completed in 2003. The major planning decisions proposed were that natural conservation areas are to be protected as they were declared in 1976. Minor adjustments in the peripheral areas of settlements and spatial developments of towns located in the natural conservation sites including Göreme, Ortahisar, Çavuşin, Ürgüp and Mustafapaşa will be strictly controlled. In other words, the Plan proposes to confine the physical growth of these towns to recently established zones. Hotel developments will take into account the set limits for room capacities. Furthermore, the plan also suggested that local authorities should be advised to review land use decisions for areas that have been reserved for tourism developments in the town plans.
Preparation of conservation area plans for the urban and/or mixed urban-archaeological conservation sites within the historic sections of Göreme are in place and provide zoning criteria and the rules and guidelines to be used in the maintenance and restoration of listed buildings and other buildings which are not registered, but which are located within the historic zones. Similar planning studies for the towns of Ortahisar and Uçhisar are in place. Once finalised, a conservation area plan for the urban conservation area in Ürgüp will be in place. All relevant plans are kept up to date on a continuing basis.
Appropriate facilities aimed at improving the understanding of the World Heritage property have been completed for the subterranean towns of Kaymaklı and Derinkuyu, and are required for Göreme and Paşabağı.
Monuments in danger due to erosion, including the El Nazar, Elmalı, and Meryemana (Virgin Mary) churches, have been listed as monuments requiring priority action. Specific measures for their protection, restoration and maintenance are required at the site level.
While conservation plans and protection measures are in place for individual sites, it is recognised by the principal parties responsible for site management that an integrated Regional Plan for the Cappadocia Cultural and Tourism Conservation and Development Area is required to protect the World Heritage values of the property. Adequate financial, political and technical support is also required to secure the management of the propert

The World Heritage property Göreme National Park and the Rock Sites of Cappadocia is subject to legal protection in accordance with both the Protection of Cultural and Natural Resources Act No. 2863 and the National Parks Act No. 2873. The entire territory between the cities of Nevşehir, Ürgüp and Avanos is designated as a National Park under the Act No. 2873. In addition, natural, archaeological, urban, and mixed archaeological and natural conservation areas, two underground towns, five troglodyte villages, and more than 200 individual rock-hewn churches, some of which contain numerous frescoes, have been entered into the register of immovable monuments and sites according to the Act No. 2863.
Legal protection, management and monitoring of the Göreme National Park and the Rock Sites of Cappadocia fall within the scope of national and regional governmental administrations. The Nevşehir and Kayseri Regional Conservation Councils are responsible for keeping the register of monuments and sites, including carrying out all tasks related to the legal protection of monuments and listed buildings and the approval to carry out any restoration-related works. They also evaluate regional and conservation area plans prepared by the responsible national and/or local (i.e. municipal) authorities.
Studies for revision and updating of the existing land use and conservation plan (Göreme National Park Long-term Development Plan) of 1981 were completed in 2003. The major planning decisions proposed were that natural conservation areas are to be protected as they were declared in 1976. Minor adjustments in the peripheral areas of settlements and spatial developments of towns located in the natural conservation sites including Göreme, Ortahisar, Çavuşin, Ürgüp and Mustafapaşa will be strictly controlled. In other words, the Plan proposes to confine the physical growth of these towns to recently established zones. Hotel developments will take into account the set limits for room capacities. Furthermore, the plan also suggested that local authorities should be advised to review land use decisions for areas that have been reserved for tourism developments in the town plans.
Preparation of conservation area plans for the urban and/or mixed urban-archaeological conservation sites within the historic sections of Göreme are in place and provide zoning criteria and the rules and guidelines to be used in the maintenance and restoration of listed buildings and other buildings which are not registered, but which are located within the historic zones. Similar planning studies for the towns of Ortahisar and Uçhisar are in place. Once finalised, a conservation area plan for the urban conservation area in Ürgüp will be in place. All relevant plans are kept up to date on a continuing basis.
Appropriate facilities aimed at improving the understanding of the World Heritage property have been completed for the subterranean towns of Kaymaklı and Derinkuyu, and are required for Göreme and Paşabağı.
Monuments in danger due to erosion, including the El Nazar, Elmalı, and Meryemana (Virgin Mary) churches, have been listed as monuments requiring priority action. Specific measures for their protection, restoration and maintenance are required at the site level.
While conservation plans and protection measures are in place for individual sites, it is recognised by the principal parties responsible for site management that an integrated Regional Plan for the Cappadocia Cultural and Tourism Conservation and Development Area is required to protect the World Heritage values of the property. Adequate financial, political and technical support is also required to secure the management of the propert

In a spectacular landscape, entirely sculpted by erosion, the Göreme valley and its surroundings contain rock-hewn sanctuaries that provide unique evidence of Byzantine art in the post-Iconoclastic period. Dwellings, troglodyte villages and underground towns – the remains of a traditional human habitat dating back to the 4th century – can also be seen there.
Brief synthesis
Located on the central Anatolia plateau within a volcanic landscape sculpted by erosion to form a succession of mountain ridges, valleys and pinnacles known as “fairy chimneys” or hoodoos, Göreme National Park and the Rock Sites of Cappadocia cover the region between the cities of Nevşehir, Ürgüp and Avanos, the sites of Karain, Karlık, Yeşilöz, Soğanlı and the subterranean cities of Kaymaklı and Derinkuyu. The area is bounded on the south and east by ranges of extinct volcanoes with Erciyes Dağ (3916 m) at one end and Hasan Dağ (3253 m) at the other. The density of its rock-hewn cells, churches, troglodyte villages and subterranean cities within the rock formations make it one of the world's most striking and largest cave-dwelling complexes. Though interesting from a geological and ethnological point of view, the incomparable beauty of the decor of the Christian sanctuaries makes Cappadocia one of the leading examples of the post-iconoclastic Byzantine art period.
It is believed that the first signs of monastic activity in Cappadocia date back to the 4th century at which time small anchorite communities, acting on the teachings of Basileios the Great, Bishop of Kayseri, began inhabiting cells hewn in the rock. In later periods, in order to resist Arab invasions, they began banding together into troglodyte villages or subterranean towns such as Kaymakli or Derinkuyu which served as places of refuge.
Cappadocian monasticism was already well established in the iconoclastic period (725-842) as illustrated by the decoration of many sanctuaries which kept a strict minimum of symbols (most often sculpted or tempera painted crosses). However, after 842 many rupestral churches were dug in Cappadocia and richly decorated with brightly coloured figurative painting. Those in the Göreme Valley include Tokalı Kilise and El Nazar Kilise (10th century), St. Barbara Kilise and Saklı Kilise (11th century) and Elmalı Kilise and Karanlık Kilise (end of the 12th – beginning of the 13th century).
Criterion (i): Owing to their quality and density, the rupestral sanctuaries of Cappadocia constitute a unique artistic achievement offering irreplaceable testimony to the post-iconoclastic Byzantine art period.
Criterion (iii): The rupestral dwellings, villages, convents and churches retain the fossilized image of a province of the Byzantine Empire between the 4th century and the arrival of the Seljuk Turks (1071). Thus, they are the essential vestiges of a civilization which has disappeared.
Criterion (v): Cappadocia is an outstanding example of a traditional human settlement which has become vulnerable under the combined effects of natural erosion and, more recently, tourism.
Criterion (vii): In a spectacular landscape dramatically demonstrating erosional forces, the Göreme Valley and its surroundings provide a globally renowned and accessible display of hoodoo landforms and other erosional features, which are of great beauty, and which interact with the cultural elements of the landscape.
Integrity
Göreme National Park and the Rock Sites of Cappadocia, having been extensively used and modified by man for centuries, is a landscape of harmony combining human interaction and settlement with dramatic natural landforms. There has been some earthquake damage to some of the cones and the pillars, but this is seen as a naturally occurring phenomenon. Overuse by tourists and some vandalism have been reported and some incompatible structures have been introduced.
The erosional processes that formed the distinctive conical rock structures will continue to create new fairy chimneys and rock pillars, however due to the rate of this process, the natural values of the property may still be threatened by unsustainable use. The cultural features, including rock-hewn churches and related cultural structures, mainly at risk of being undermined by erosion and other negative natural processes coupled with mass tourism and development pressures, can never be replaced. threats Some of the churches mentioned by early scholars such as C. Texier, H.G. Rott and Guillaume de Jerphanion are no longer extant.
Authenticity
The property meets the conditions of authenticity as its values and their attributes, including its historical setting, form, design, material and workmanship adequately reflect the cultural and natural values recognized in the inscription criteria.
Given the technical difficulties of building in this region, where it is a matter of hewing out structures within the natural rock, creating architecture by the removal of material rather than by putting it together to form the elements of a building, the underlying morphological structure and the difficulties inherent in the handling of the material inhibited the creative impulses of the builders. This conditioning of human effort by natural conditions persisted almost unchanged through successive periods and civilizations, influencing the cultural attitudes and technical skills of each succeeding generation.

Other images of the Sunrise II, also for a time the fishing boat Huntress, are found in the Album Sunrise II
Details :
Name: Sunrise II
Type: Cream/Milk launch
Length: 40 ft
Beam: 12 ft
Draft: 3½ ft (when loaded)
Gross: Carrying Capacity 15 tons
Engine: 44 H.P. Kelvin Diesel
Builder: Mr. W.O. Ryan
Launched: 5th November 1941 from the factory property on Mitchell’s Island.
Owners: Owners: Manning River Co-Operative Dairy Company Ltd.
Construction:
- Frame Spotted Gum.
- Planking - White Beech
- Copper sheathed
1941 November
Maiden Voyage:
New Launch for M.R. Dairy Society. SUNRISE II.
About 1 p.m. on Thursday [20th November] a new launch tied up at the public wharf at the end of Pultney Street, Taree, on her maiden run. It was Sunrise II, completed this month as a cream and milk collecting launch for the Manning River Co Op. Dairy Society, Mitchell's Island factory. This trim little craft was specially designed for cream collecting purposes by Mr. C. Goodsell, who has been engineer to the factory for many years and knows just what is required in the way of a launch. With a capacity of about 15 tons, this launch is 40 ft long with a beam of 12 ft. for the greater part of the ship. She is fitted with a heavy belting right round the hull at deck level, to prevent the planking of the ship being damaged by bumping wharves. The vessel is constructed of beech planking with hardwood (spotted gum) timbers. The bottom of the hull is copper covered, the keel covered with steel, and the stem post shod with brass shoes. On the deck alone, the Sunrise II will carry 300 8-gaI. cans. The awning is very substantially carried and is designed for the carriage of freight. Considering that the hull was only launched on the 5th November, Mr. Goodsell lost no time in fitting the engines in the launch and completing the deck housing, etc. She was built on the Society's property at the factory, and is considered one of the most suitable launches for the work that the society so far possessed. Mr. W. O. Ryan, of Oxley Island, is the builder, and that speaks for excellent and permanent work. He knows his calling from end to end and puts in faithful workmanship. Loaded, the launch will draw only about 3ft. 6ins., and is thus well suited for the work she is designed to do. Sunrise II is fitted with a 44 h.p. Kelvin full Diesel engine and has a good turn of speed, being faster than any launch yet the property of the M.R. Society. It is intended that this launch will eventually be used for the collection of cream and milk on the Lower Manning and around Oxley Island. Sunrise II was launched on November 5. The headmasters at Mitchell's Island and Croki brought their children over to see it. Mr. D. Cowan (chairman of directors) presided at the ceremony. Mrs. L. C. Parker (wife of the manager of the factory) performed the christening. The directors have commissioned Mr. Ryan to build them another launch, somewhat smaller than the one under notice, for the run to Taree and Wingham. Manning River Times and Advocate for the Northern Coast Districts of New South Wales Saturday - 22nd November 1941 .
The M.R. Co-op. Dairy Society's new launch, Sunrise II, is now in commission. The new vessel was specially designed for cream collecting by the factory engineer, Mr. C. Goodsell, and was built on the factory property, by Mr. W. O. Ryan, of Oxley Island, who has been commissioned by the directors to build a smaller launch to pick up between Taree and Wingham. The Sunrise II is 40 ft. long, 12 ft. beam and has a capacity of about 15 tons. She is powered with a 44 H.P. Kelvin- diesel engine and draws about 3 ½ ft. when loaded. The new boat is a trim little craft, and is ideal for the work she will have to perform.

The end of an era.
A link with the Manning River's colourful past was severed on the first weekend in April 1971.
The last cream boat picked up milk from the river farms and returned to the Manning River Co-operative's wharf.
The run which lasted 72 years, was replaced by the gradual introduction of bulk milk vats throughout the district.
Milk is now placed into a refrigerator vat with a capacity of between 100 and 450 gallons. In the past they were placed in 10 gallon cans. Now instead of cans being collected from each farm daily, the bulk tankers need only call every second day. Supplement to the Manning River Times, Wed, 14th November , 1979.

CAPPADOCIA WORLD HERITAGE LIST :
www.whc.unesco.org/en/list/357
In a spectacular landscape, entirely sculpted by erosion, the Göreme valley and its surroundings contain rock-hewn sanctuaries that provide unique evidence of Byzantine art in the post-Iconoclastic period. Dwellings, troglodyte villages and underground towns – the remains of a traditional human habitat dating back to the 4th century – can also be seen there.
Brief synthesis
Located on the central Anatolia plateau within a volcanic landscape sculpted by erosion to form a succession of mountain ridges, valleys and pinnacles known as “fairy chimneys” or hoodoos, Göreme National Park and the Rock Sites of Cappadocia cover the region between the cities of Nevşehir, Ürgüp and Avanos, the sites of Karain, Karlık, Yeşilöz, Soğanlı and the subterranean cities of Kaymaklı and Derinkuyu. The area is bounded on the south and east by ranges of extinct volcanoes with Erciyes Dağ (3916 m) at one end and Hasan Dağ (3253 m) at the other. The density of its rock-hewn cells, churches, troglodyte villages and subterranean cities within the rock formations make it one of the world's most striking and largest cave-dwelling complexes. Though interesting from a geological and ethnological point of view, the incomparable beauty of the decor of the Christian sanctuaries makes Cappadocia one of the leading examples of the post-iconoclastic Byzantine art period.
It is believed that the first signs of monastic activity in Cappadocia date back to the 4th century at which time small anchorite communities, acting on the teachings of Basileios the Great, Bishop of Kayseri, began inhabiting cells hewn in the rock. In later periods, in order to resist Arab invasions, they began banding together into troglodyte villages or subterranean towns such as Kaymakli or Derinkuyu which served as places of refuge.
Cappadocian monasticism was already well established in the iconoclastic period (725-842) as illustrated by the decoration of many sanctuaries which kept a strict minimum of symbols (most often sculpted or tempera painted crosses). However, after 842 many rupestral churches were dug in Cappadocia and richly decorated with brightly coloured figurative painting. Those in the Göreme Valley include Tokalı Kilise and El Nazar Kilise (10th century), St. Barbara Kilise and Saklı Kilise (11th century) and Elmalı Kilise and Karanlık Kilise (end of the 12th – beginning of the 13th century).
Criterion (i): Owing to their quality and density, the rupestral sanctuaries of Cappadocia constitute a unique artistic achievement offering irreplaceable testimony to the post-iconoclastic Byzantine art period.
Criterion (iii): The rupestral dwellings, villages, convents and churches retain the fossilized image of a province of the Byzantine Empire between the 4th century and the arrival of the Seljuk Turks (1071). Thus, they are the essential vestiges of a civilization which has disappeared.
Criterion (v): Cappadocia is an outstanding example of a traditional human settlement which has become vulnerable under the combined effects of natural erosion and, more recently, tourism.
Criterion (vii): In a spectacular landscape dramatically demonstrating erosional forces, the Göreme Valley and its surroundings provide a globally renowned and accessible display of hoodoo landforms and other erosional features, which are of great beauty, and which interact with the cultural elements of the landscape.
Integrity
Göreme National Park and the Rock Sites of Cappadocia, having been extensively used and modified by man for centuries, is a landscape of harmony combining human interaction and settlement with dramatic natural landforms. There has been some earthquake damage to some of the cones and the pillars, but this is seen as a naturally occurring phenomenon. Overuse by tourists and some vandalism have been reported and some incompatible structures have been introduced.
The erosional processes that formed the distinctive conical rock structures will continue to create new fairy chimneys and rock pillars, however due to the rate of this process, the natural values of the property may still be threatened by unsustainable use. The cultural features, including rock-hewn churches and related cultural structures, mainly at risk of being undermined by erosion and other negative natural processes coupled with mass tourism and development pressures, can never be replaced. threats Some of the churches mentioned by early scholars such as C. Texier, H.G. Rott and Guillaume de Jerphanion are no longer extant.
Authenticity
The property meets the conditions of authenticity as its values and their attributes, including its historical setting, form, design, material and workmanship adequately reflect the cultural and natural values recognized in the inscription criteria.
Given the technical difficulties of building in this region, where it is a matter of hewing out structures within the natural rock, creating architecture by the removal of material rather than by putting it together to form the elements of a building, the underlying morphological structure and the difficulties inherent in the handling of the material inhibited the creative impulses of the builders. This conditioning of human effort by natural conditions persisted almost unchanged through successive periods and civilizations, influencing the cultural attitudes and technical skills of each succeeding generation.
Protection and management requirements
The World Heritage property Göreme National Park and the Rock Sites of Cappadocia is subject to legal protection in accordance with both the Protection of Cultural and Natural Resources Act No. 2863 and the National Parks Act No. 2873. The entire territory between the cities of Nevşehir, Ürgüp and Avanos is designated as a National Park under the Act No. 2873. In addition, natural, archaeological, urban, and mixed archaeological and natural conservation areas, two underground towns, five troglodyte villages, and more than 200 individual rock-hewn churches, some of which contain numerous frescoes, have been entered into the register of immovable monuments and sites according to the Act No. 2863.
Legal protection, management and monitoring of the Göreme National Park and the Rock Sites of Cappadocia fall within the scope of national and regional governmental administrations. The Nevşehir and Kayseri Regional Conservation Councils are responsible for keeping the register of monuments and sites, including carrying out all tasks related to the legal protection of monuments and listed buildings and the approval to carry out any restoration-related works. They also evaluate regional and conservation area plans prepared by the responsible national and/or local (i.e. municipal) authorities.
Studies for revision and updating of the existing land use and conservation plan (Göreme National Park Long-term Development Plan) of 1981 were completed in 2003. The major planning decisions proposed were that natural conservation areas are to be protected as they were declared in 1976. Minor adjustments in the peripheral areas of settlements and spatial developments of towns located in the natural conservation sites including Göreme, Ortahisar, Çavuşin, Ürgüp and Mustafapaşa will be strictly controlled. In other words, the Plan proposes to confine the physical growth of these towns to recently established zones. Hotel developments will take into account the set limits for room capacities. Furthermore, the plan also suggested that local authorities should be advised to review land use decisions for areas that have been reserved for tourism developments in the town plans.
Preparation of conservation area plans for the urban and/or mixed urban-archaeological conservation sites within the historic sections of Göreme are in place and provide zoning criteria and the rules and guidelines to be used in the maintenance and restoration of listed buildings and other buildings which are not registered, but which are located within the historic zones. Similar planning studies for the towns of Ortahisar and Uçhisar are in place. Once finalised, a conservation area plan for the urban conservation area in Ürgüp will be in place. All relevant plans are kept up to date on a continuing basis.
Appropriate facilities aimed at improving the understanding of the World Heritage property have been completed for the subterranean towns of Kaymaklı and Derinkuyu, and are required for Göreme and Paşabağı.
Monuments in danger due to erosion, including the El Nazar, Elmalı, and Meryemana (Virgin Mary) churches, have been listed as monuments requiring priority action. Specific measures for their protection, restoration and maintenance are required at the site level.
While conservation plans and protection measures are in place for individual sites, it is recognised by the principal parties responsible for site management that an integrated Regional Plan for the Cappadocia Cultural and Tourism Conservation and Development Area is required to protect the World Heritage values of the property. Adequate financial, political and technical support is also required to secure the management of the propert

Monts-sur-Guesnes (Vienne)
Le château.
Château fort défensif entouré de douves sèches, le château de Monts fut transformé vers la fin du XVème siècle, sans doute au moment de l'érection de la terre en châtellenie. Le logis seigneurial, jouxtant la tour ronde, est alors construit. La chapelle dédiée à St Laurent (beau retable) est édifiée un peu plus tard, hors de l'enceinte du château.
Morcelé au XIXème siècle en plusieurs propriétés, le château perd peu à peu de son importance : on parle alors de la "Maison de Monts".
Dans la cour, on peut voir la tour de l'escalier, dans laquelle monte en spirale une frise de pierre sculptée représentant une chasse.
Très beau panorama sur les 3 500 hectares de la forêt de Scévole dont le nom évoque le grand poète du XVIème siècle, Scévole de Sainte-Marthe, qui tint a Loudun un salon littéraire fréquenté entre autres célébrités par Ronsard, Rabelais et Du Bellay.
Monts Castle was a defensive stronghold surrounded by dry moats. It was altered in the late 15th Century, probably when the estate became a governor's residence. It was at this time that the manor house adjoining the round tower was built. The chapel dedicated to St. Lawrence (fine reredos) was built slightly later, outside the castle walls.
The castle was divided into several properties during the 19th Century and gradually lost its importance. It was then known as "Monts House".
In the courtyard, note the staircase tower containing a spiralling carved stone frieze representing a hunting scene.
There is a splendid panoramic-view-over the 3,500 hectare Scévole Forest whose name recalls the great 16th-century poet, Scévole de Sainte-Marthe who held a literary salon in Loudun frequented by many famous people including Ronsard, Rabelais and Du Bellay.
Un seigneur de Monts est mentionné dès le début du XIIe siècle. Une première place forte a probablement existé à 2000 m vers l'est, au lieu-dit "La Motte de Saunay".
La seigneurie passe au XIIIe siècle dans la famille des Odart, originaire de Verrières.
Le château à l'endroit actuel est attesté depuis le XIVe siècle, sa construction est attribuée à la famille Odart qui en sera propriétaire jusqu'au milieu du XVe siècle.
Charles V, dit "le Sage", roi de France (1364-1380), accorda à Guy Odart des lettres de guet et de garde pour son château de Monts, confirmant l'existence d'une forteresse en contrepoint à la forteresse anglaise de Purnon située a 7,5 klm au sud-ouest de Monts, de l'autre côté de la forêt de Scevolles.
Jean Odart, seigneur de Monts, étant mort sans postérité, c’est sa sœur Jeanne, épouse depuis 1429, de Pierre de Brilhac (Brillac), seigneur d'Argy, qui hérite de la seigneurie.
Le château accueillera Louis XI, pour une nuit, en mars 1480.
En 1481, le roi Louis XI érige la terre de Monts en châtellenie, avec droit "de chastel et de haulte justice", en faveur de Pierre de Brilhac. C’est à cette famille que l’on doit le logis sud et la tour ronde., vers 1500. Le roi autorisera également Monts à tenir foires et marchés.
Vers 1590, Jacqueline de Savonnières, veuve de René de Brilhac, vend le château de Monts à sa soeur Louise de Savonnières, épouse de Martin du Bellay (Son fils aîné, René du Bellay, sera mortellement blessé au siège de la Rochelle en 1627).
Charles du Bellay, fils de Louise et Martin, criblé de dettes doit céder, le 26 juillet 1651, son château, à Madeleine de Savonnières veuve d’Isaac Frézeau de la Frézelière. Le domaine est érigée en marquisat en 1655.
Au XVIIIe siècle, les Doublet effectuent des modifications, principalement dans les ailes ouest et l'aile de communs nord: repercement de fenêtres et reconstruction de parties de bâtiments.
Après la Révolution, le château est vendu à plusieurs reprises et progressivement morcelé. Le 7 octobre 1791, Jean-Pierre Gravier acquiert le château de Monts.
Au cours du XXe siècle, il est en grande partie abandonné et fait l’objet de pillage.
Après 1920, il s’effondre progressivement faute d’entretien. Acquis par la commune en 1971, classé MH en 1979, le château est restauré depuis la fin des années 1980.
Le château de Monts-surGuesnes fait l’objet de nombreux travaux de restauration dans les années 1990 et 2000, notamment pour installer la mairie dans l’aile Sud.

Studies for revision and updating of the existing land use and conservation plan (Göreme National Park Long-term Development Plan) of 1981 were completed in 2003. The major planning decisions proposed were that natural conservation areas are to be protected as they were declared in 1976. Minor adjustments in the peripheral areas of settlements and spatial developments of towns located in the natural conservation sites including Göreme, Ortahisar, Çavuşin, Ürgüp and Mustafapaşa will be strictly controlled. In other words, the Plan proposes to confine the physical growth of these towns to recently established zones. Hotel developments will take into account the set limits for room capacities. Furthermore, the plan also suggested that local authorities should be advised to review land use decisions for areas that have been reserved for tourism developments in the town plans.
Preparation of conservation area plans for the urban and/or mixed urban-archaeological conservation sites within the historic sections of Göreme are in place and provide zoning criteria and the rules and guidelines to be used in the maintenance and restoration of listed buildings and other buildings which are not registered, but which are located within the historic zones. Similar planning studies for the towns of Ortahisar and Uçhisar are in place. Once finalised, a conservation area plan for the urban conservation area in Ürgüp will be in place. All relevant plans are kept up to date on a continuing basis.
Appropriate facilities aimed at improving the understanding of the World Heritage property have been completed for the subterranean towns of Kaymaklı and Derinkuyu, and are required for Göreme and Paşabağı.
Monuments in danger due to erosion, including the El Nazar, Elmalı, and Meryemana (Virgin Mary) churches, have been listed as monuments requiring priority action. Specific measures for their protection, restoration and maintenance are required at the site level.
While conservation plans and protection measures are in place for individual sites, it is recognised by the principal parties responsible for site management that an integrated Regional Plan for the Cappadocia Cultural and Tourism Conservation and Development Area is required to protect the World Heritage values of the property. Adequate financial, political and technical support is also required to secure the management of the propert

Part of the Italianate album. These photos were taken of the temporaily abandoned building in 2010.
The Italianate was originally constructed in 1911 on the Haxell Canal in downtown Richmond, VA. In the 1940s, R.J. Reynolds purchased the property and opened an aluminum foil manufacturing center in the area. The Italianate building, specifically, was used as business offices for the Reynolds foil company. The company operated out of this building until the Great Recession of 2008 when the offices where closed. In late 2010 an interested developer purchased the propert and began to repurpose the building into residential apartments. The building is currently active, and houses apartments as well as a local Mexican resteraunt. It is a part of the Richmond Historic Shockoe Slip district, and of the residential "The Locks" development. For more information - details.

From 'Rail Express' - Oliver Propert reporting,
A consortium of UGL, Hyundai Rotem and Mitsubishi has won the $2.3 billion contract to design and build more than 500 new carriages for the New South Wales intercity network.
The trio’s RailConnect consortium was announced as the winning bidder to build the double deck trains on Thursday, August 18.
RailConnect was one of four consortiums shortlisted to deliver the new fleet.
French firm Alstom, Swiss manufacturer Stadler, and a joint venture between Downer and China’s CNR Changchun were also on the shortlist, announced last year.
Hyundai Rotem and Mitsubishi will be responsible for delivery of the fleet from design through to final commissioning.
UGL will provide local support through design and testing phases of the project, and will be responsible for maintenance and asset management once the new trains are added to the NSW TrainLink fleet.
The RailConnect consortium will build the maintenance facility for the new trains in Kangy Angy, between Sydney and Newcastle on the state’s Central Coast.
Chief executive Ross Taylor said UGL’s portion of the $2.3 billion contract was worth around $570 million in revenue for the business.
“The New Intercity Fleet adds another significant long term maintenance contract to the order book of our Rail business and reflects UGL’s position as an industry-leading provider of rail maintenance services to the Australian market,” Taylor said.
Hyundai Rotem will lead the design, manufacturing, testing and commissioning of the trains, while Mitsubishi Electric Australia will act as technology provider.
An official from Hyundai Rotem said the company hoped the contract will further accelerate overseas orders for its double-decker high-speed EMUs.
NSW transport minister Andrew Constance said the new trains would transform intercity travel for customers in Newcastle, the Central Coast, South Coast and the Blue Mountains.
“For customers travelling more lengthy trips, these trains will be more spacious, more comfortable and have features never before seen on our long distance services.”
Constance said the seating area of the new trains will feature wider seats with armrests, configured in a two-by-two formation.
Mobile charging stations will be included on each seat, along with cup holders and tray tables.
Other technology will include digital display screens, modern CCTV surveillance technology and help points.
The carriages will feature accessible toilets, along with dedicated space for luggage, prams, bikes and wheelchairs.
“We want to encourage people out of cars and that’s why we want these trains to offer the next level of comfort and convenience for those commuting a long way,” the minister said.
The first train is expected to be delivered in 2019.

Le Chrysler Building est l'un des gratte-ciels les plus célèbres de New York. Il est situé à l'intersection de la Lexington Avenue et de la 42e rue, dans le quartier de Midtown, à Manhattan. Le Chrysler Building, qui mesure 319 mètres, et compte 77 étages, est l'un des plus grands symboles de la ville de New York, et il est en outre le « gratte-ciel préféré des New-Yorkais », devant son célèbre rival, l'Empire State Building. Il fut le plus haut bâtiment du monde entre 1930 et 1931, jusqu'à la construction de l'Empire State Building, qui est toujours le plus haut gratte-ciel de la ville aujourd'hui depuis les attentats du World Trade Center.
La construction du Chrysler Building, dirigée par l'architecte américain William Van Alen, s'est étalée entre 1928 et 1930, et le bâtiment a été ouvert au public après une cérémonie le 27 mai 1930. Le bâtiment a été déclaré National Historic Landmark le 8 décembre 1976[1] Le Chrysler Building a été rénové en 1978, avec la construction d'un hall, composé essentiellement de marbre, d'acier et de granite, semblable à celui de l'Empire State Building. En outre, la flèche a été rénovée en 1995, car l'acier inoxydable avait perdu de son éclat avec le temps. Le bâtiment appartient aujourd'hui à Abu Dhabi Investment Council (75%) et à Tishman Speyer Properties (25%)[2].
Piptoporus betulinus, commonly known as the birch polypore, birch bracket, or razor strop, is one of the most common polyporous bracket fungi and, as the name suggests, grows almost exclusively on birch trees. The brackets burst out from the bark of the tree, and these fruiting bodies can last for more than a year. Technically, it is an edible mushroom, with a strong, pleasant "mushroomy" odor but a bitter taste. The velvety cut surface of the fruiting body was traditionally used as a strap for finishing the finest of edges on razors. It is also said to have medicinal properties, and this fungus was carried by "Ötzi the Iceman" – the 5,000 year old mummy found in Tyrol.
Info taken from Wikipedia.
Le polypore du bouleau est un champignon ayant la forme d'une hernie ou d'un rein dans son jeune âge et qui s'étale et prend alors la forme d'un beau chapeau (6 à 20 cm de diamètre), épais (2 à 6 cm), ressemblant à la base d'un sabot de cheval qui s'épaissit et s'arrondit vers le bord de sa face inférieure en un beau bourrelet, couvert d'une mince pellicule beige à brun clair, avec des tubes très courts de couleur blanche et des pores très fins de la même couleur. D'habitude il s'allonge vers l'arrière en un faux pied.
Sa chair blanche ou légèrement jaune est tendre, presque gélatineuse, devenant rapidement coriace. Elle dégage une odeur aigrelette et à une saveur acidulée. Il pousse uniquement sur les bouleaux.
Utilisation:
C'est un champignon qui, vu sa consistance subéreuse (consistance du liège), n'est pas comestible. Dans le passé on s'en servait pour aiguiser les lames de rasoirs à barbe. Ötzi, la momie des Alpes vieille de 5300 ans portait ce champignon autour de son cou. Coupé en dés et bouilli 3 à 4 heures, sa décoction (un verre à vodka de 10 cl) contient un nombre important de substances actives, ce qui en fait une mini pharmacie à lui seul : antibactérien, antidiarrhéique, anti-inflammatoire - ses effets ont surtout l'estomac et l'intestin pour cibles. Son étude intéresse en ce moment au plus haut point l'industrie pharmaceutique.

Jay Heritage Center (JHC) Founder Catherine "Kitty" Aresty and New York Preservation Advocate, Barbaralee Diamonstein-Spielvogel were recipients of the 1st Annual "John Jay Medal for Service" awarded at JHC's 20th Anniversary Gala on Saturday, October 13, 2012. In keeping with the legacy of one of America's greatest Founding Fathers, the John Jay Medal recognizes individuals who demonstrate a selfless spirit of commitment and engagement with their community.
As an early member of the Jay Coalition, Catherine "Kitty" Aresty helped harness the energy of thousands of volunteers and citizens to save the Jay Property when it was threatened by commercial development in the early 1980s. She was one of 5 dynamic women who formed the vanguard for preservation of the site, finally securing a victory in 1992 but her total commitment to seeing the propert restored for public use extends more than 30 years including 22 consecutive years on the JHC Board.
Similarly, Barbaralee Diamonstein-Spielvogel's career spans more than 40 years. She has been a pioneering champion of preservation and the arts, credited with bringing the first public art to Bryant Park and the first public performance to Central Park. The first Director of Cultural Affairs for New York City, she was the longest term Landmarks Commissioner in the city’s history, spanning four mayoral administrations from 1972 to 1987. Her expertise and advocacy of historic preservation has garnered her countless honors and prestigious appointments from nor fewer than 4 US Presidents. Dr. Diamonstein-Spielvogel is the current Vice Chair of the New York State Council on the Arts.
Congresswoman Nita Lowey and Westchester County Executive Rob Astorino served as Honorary Co-Chairs of the evening which drew over 170 people from Manhattan, Westchester and Greenwich to the National Historic Landmark site. While the event also marked an important 2 decade milestone for the organization, adding to the festive feeling was the recent announcement of a public private partnership between JHC, New York State Parks and Westchester County to manage and restore the entire 23 acre Jay estate as a historic park and educational resource.
See the announcement here:
www3.westchestergov.com/news/all-press-releases/4358-asto...
The site has been a member of Westchester County's African American Heritage Trail since 2004 and was added to the prestigious Hudson River Valley National Heritage Area following its nomination in 2008 by County Legislator Judy Myers.
JHC President Suzanne Clary commended the men, women and coalition of non-profits that first saved Jay's home but also emphasized the "new coalition" they are forming with other museums and preservation groups like the NY Preservation League, The Landmarks Conservancy, Audubon NY, the World Monuments Fund and more. Congresswoman Lowey recognized the power of bi-partisan support that continues to guide JHC's success. Ken Jenkins, Chairman of the Westchester County Board of Legislators presented a proclamation to both honorees and added his strong words of support for the Jay Heritage Center's mission to revitalize one of Westchester's premiere heritage destinations. Steve Otis, former Mayor of Rye brought accolades from Sen. Suzi Oppenhiemer and personally congratulated the two medal awardees on their vision and tenacity; he reminded the audience how dilapidated the Jay site was when first acquired and how miraculous its transformation had been under JHC's trusted stewardship. Both honorees gave moving remarks and thanks and underscored the continued need to stay "passionate" about preservation.
The theme of the night was Roaring 20s - guests dressed in everything from raccoon coats and spats to flapper dresses and boas made for an evening that was simply "the bees knees!"

Le château.
Château fort défensif entouré de douves sèches, le château de Monts fut transformé vers la fin du XVème siècle, sans doute au moment de l'érection de la terre en châtellenie. Le logis seigneurial, jouxtant la tour ronde, est alors construit. La chapelle dédiée à St Laurent (beau retable) est édifiée un peu plus tard, hors de l'enceinte du château.
Morcelé au XIXème siècle en plusieurs propriétés, le château perd peu à peu de son importance : on parle alors de la "Maison de Monts".
Dans la cour, on peut voir la tour de l'escalier, dans laquelle monte en spirale une frise de pierre sculptée représentant une chasse.
Très beau panorama sur les 3 500 hectares de la forêt de Scévole dont le nom évoque le grand poète du XVIème siècle, Scévole de Sainte-Marthe, qui tint a Loudun un salon littéraire fréquenté entre autres célébrités par Ronsard, Rabelais et Du Bellay.
Monts Castle was a defensive stronghold surrounded by dry moats. It was altered in the late 15th Century, probably when the estate became a governor's residence. It was at this time that the manor house adjoining the round tower was built. The chapel dedicated to St. Lawrence (fine reredos) was built slightly later, outside the castle walls.
The castle was divided into several properties during the 19th Century and gradually lost its importance. It was then known as "Monts House".
In the courtyard, note the staircase tower containing a spiralling carved stone frieze representing a hunting scene.
There is a splendid panoramic-view-over the 3,500 hectare Scévole Forest whose name recalls the great 16th-century poet, Scévole de Sainte-Marthe who held a literary salon in Loudun frequented by many famous people including Ronsard, Rabelais and Du Bellay.
Un seigneur de Monts est mentionné dès le début du XIIe siècle. Une première place forte a probablement existé à 2000 m vers l'est, au lieu-dit "La Motte de Saunay".
La seigneurie passe au XIIIe siècle dans la famille des Odart, originaire de Verrières.
Le château à l'endroit actuel est attesté depuis le XIVe siècle, sa construction est attribuée à la famille Odart qui en sera propriétaire jusqu'au milieu du XVe siècle.
Charles V, dit "le Sage", roi de France (1364-1380), accorda à Guy Odart des lettres de guet et de garde pour son château de Monts, confirmant l'existence d'une forteresse en contrepoint à la forteresse anglaise de Purnon située a 7,5 klm au sud-ouest de Monts, de l'autre côté de la forêt de Scevolles.
Jean Odart, seigneur de Monts, étant mort sans postérité, c’est sa sœur Jeanne, épouse depuis 1429, de Pierre de Brilhac (Brillac), seigneur d'Argy, qui hérite de la seigneurie.
Le château accueillera Louis XI, pour une nuit, en mars 1480.
En 1481, le roi Louis XI érige la terre de Monts en châtellenie, avec droit "de chastel et de haulte justice", en faveur de Pierre de Brilhac. C’est à cette famille que l’on doit le logis sud et la tour ronde., vers 1500. Le roi autorisera également Monts à tenir foires et marchés.
Vers 1590, Jacqueline de Savonnières, veuve de René de Brilhac, vend le château de Monts à sa soeur Louise de Savonnières, épouse de Martin du Bellay (Son fils aîné, René du Bellay, sera mortellement blessé au siège de la Rochelle en 1627).
Charles du Bellay, fils de Louise et Martin, criblé de dettes doit céder, le 26 juillet 1651, son château, à Madeleine de Savonnières veuve d’Isaac Frézeau de la Frézelière. Le domaine est érigée en marquisat en 1655.
Au XVIIIe siècle, les Doublet effectuent des modifications, principalement dans les ailes ouest et l'aile de communs nord: repercement de fenêtres et reconstruction de parties de bâtiments.
Après la Révolution, le château est vendu à plusieurs reprises et progressivement morcelé. Le 7 octobre 1791, Jean-Pierre Gravier acquiert le château de Monts.
Au cours du XXe siècle, il est en grande partie abandonné et fait l’objet de pillage.
Après 1920, il s’effondre progressivement faute d’entretien. Acquis par la commune en 1971, classé MH en 1979, le château est restauré depuis la fin des années 1980.
Le château de Monts-surGuesnes fait l’objet de nombreux travaux de restauration dans les années 1990 et 2000, notamment pour installer la mairie dans l’aile Sud.

The knight is greeting the visitors of Freiburg minster
Das Freiburger Münster wurde zwischen 1200 und 1513. Freiburg ist Bischoffsitz, daher sollte die Kirche eigentlich Dom genannt werden. Aber aus Tradition blieb es beim Münster, schließlich ist das mit dem Bischoff ja auch nur etwas über 150 Jahre her. Das Münster hat übrigens nie der Kirche gehört, sondern erst den Herzogen von Zähringen und dann der Stadt Freiburg, er gehört heute dem Münsterfabrikfond, der bereits 1295 erwähnt wird, der aktuelle Vertrag zur Regelung der Rechte stammt von 1901.
The Freiburg Cathedral was built between 1200 and 1513. Nowadays the church should really be called Cathedral. But due to tradition it is still called minster, finally, well it is only a little over 150 years since there is a bishoff in Freiburg. The Minster was never propert the church, first the Dukes of Zähringen had been proprietor and then the city of Freiburg, the minster now belongs to the Munster plant stock that has been mentioned already in 1295, the current contract governing the rights was made in 1901.
Birth of the mysterious Alchemical Sentinels
3 months working day and night with an exceptional “dream team"… a big thank you to ACS, Luc, my trusty Giant who could lift a juggernaut onto a balcony (QED Thierry Loir) Thomas Cart'1, Goin, and of course Marc for the paints.
I have managed to set up my installation of 99 raw steel sculptures with an incredibly demanding specification: none of the 3600 work on the DDC site were to be hidden… we had to think about power sources, water crossings, access for construction machinery including the telescopic booms (3m wide)… public safety, ERP museum standards, etc, ... constantly alternating between the visible and the invisible...
Are they inhabited? I don’t know. One thing is certain: each sentinel stands as a unique sculpture in terms of its alchemical elements and paintwork (either with anti-rust paint or voluntarily with paints that do not resist rust). This autumn, each sentinel will reveal – with the acid rain – different interpretations, depending on the paints and solvents used, making each one different, with stratifications that future archaeologists will decipher.
But my most perilous challenge was to create a giant (9000 m²) installation that envelops the Abode of Chaos with dozens of tons of steel, so that my visitors, from any angle, enter a dreamlike fantasy and where the world of the Abode of Chaos on the one hand and that of the 99 monumental sculptures (named "Alchemical Sentinels" during an extremely busy night ) intersect like the Inframince defined by Marcel Duchamp (or, how to build intensities by subtraction).
These 99 Alchemical Sentinels are now the guardians of the Sanctuary that the Abode of Chaos has become. I designed them as veritable quantum energy wells that we placed with patience and wisdom at different spots all over the Abode of Chaos.
There are 99 in total, made of 10mm rough steel (50 tons), welded to form perfect equilateral triangles. Each of the three sides constituting an Alchemical Sentinel is itself cut to reveal a meurtrière, again in the shape of an equilateral triangle, presenting a superb Euclidean geometry to the visitor.
These 99 Alchemical Sentinels are each placed at specific energy points on the 9000 m² of the Abode of Chaos. Some are hidden by vegetation or natural landforms or are placed in relation to existing works. Others are located in our private and professionals spaces.
In my alchemical work that began on 9 December 1999, the three gates arranged in an equilateral triangle with one vertex pointing upwards, form the luminous delta. They represent the three elements that alchemists work with. These three elements are sulphur, mercury and salt.
Note that the three elements found in the Prima Materia (or Alchemical Chaos) are very closely related. The point triangle is also the symbol of the fire philosophers.
The equilateral triangle resting on its base – like the three points – is the symbol of the fire element, one of the four elements that the alchemist works with in the laboratory.
The geometric properties of the equilateral triangle evoke absolute perfection by their spiritual strength and their age-old symbolism going back to ancient Egypt… strength, beauty and harmony.
They will remain for a thousand years as witnesses to a civilization lost through the folly of men.

3 mois de travail jour et nuit, une "dream team" hors du commun, un grand merci à ACS, Luc, mon fidèle Géant qui poserait un 38 T. sur un balcon (cqfd Thierry Loir) Thomas, Cart'1, Goin et bien sûr Marc pour les peintures.
Je suis arrivé à poser mon installation de 99 sculptures d'acier brut avec un cahier des charges de ouf, aucune des 3600 œuvres de la DDC ne devaient être occultées, penser aux sources électriques, les passages d'eau, les voies de transport pour engin de chantier, les nacelles télescopiques (3m de large), protéger le grand public, respecter les normes ERP muséales, etc… Alterner en permanence monstration et effacement…
Sont-elles habitées ? Je l'ignore. Une chose certaine est que chacune, par les éléments alchimiques et les codes peints soit à l'antirouille soit volontairement avec des peintures dégradables par la rouille avec le temps, rend chaque sentinelle comme une sculpture unique. Cet automne chaque sentinelle va laisser apparaître, avec les pluies acides, différents niveaux de lecture, selon les peintures et solvants utilisés, les rendant singulières avec des stratifications que les archéologues des temps futurs décrypteront...
Mais mon défi le plus périlleux, était de créer une installation géante de 9000 m2 qui enveloppe, par des dizaines de tonnes d'acier, la Demeure du Chaos pour que mes visiteurs sur 360 degrés, plongent dans un univers onirique et fantasmagorique où les deux univers que sont la Demeure du Chaos d'une part et d'autre part l'installation des 99 sculptures monumentales (baptisées par une nuit très agitée "Sentinelles Alchimiques") s'entrecroisent selon l'Inframince définit par Marcel Duchamp (ou comment construire des intensités par soustraction).
Ces 99 Sentinelles Alchimiques sont désormais les gardiennes du Sanctuaire que représente la Demeure du Chaos. Je les ai conçus comme de véritable puits d’énergie quantique que je pose avec patience et sagesse sur l’ensemble de la Demeure du Chaos.
Elles sont au nombre de 99, faites d’acier brut de 10 mm (50 tonnes) soudées pour former un triangle équilatéral parfait. Chacun des 3 pans constituant une Sentinelle Alchimique, est lui même découpé pour laisser entrevoir une mystérieuse meurtrière, elle même en forme de triangle équilatéral, donnant ainsi une géométrie Euclidienne au regard du visiteur.
Ces 99 Sentinelles Alchimiques sont chacune à des points d’énergie particuliers de la Demeure du Chaos sur 9000 m2. Certaines se dissimulent par la végétation ou les reliefs naturels ou bien en écho aux autres œuvres, d’autres sont dans les espaces privatifs ou professionnels.
Dans mon travail alchimique démarré le 9 décembre 1999, les trois portes disposées en triangle équilatéral, dont un sommet est dirigé vers le haut, forment le delta lumineux. Elle sont les trois corps sur lesquels l’alchimiste va œuvrer. Ces trois corps sont le soufre, le mercure et le sel.
Soulignons que les trois corps présents dans la Materia Prima ou Chaos alchimique sont étroitement mélangés. Le triangle de point est aussi la marque des philosophes par le feu.
Le triangle équilatéral reposant sur sa base, à la manière des trois points, est le symbole de l’élément feu, l’un des quatre éléments avec lequel l’alchimiste travaille au laboratoire.
Les propriétés géométriques du triangle équilatéral relèvent de la perfection absolue par sa force spirituelle, son symbolisme de la nuit des temps notamment dans l’ancienne Egypte, il est force, beauté et harmonie.
Elles resteront durant mille ans comme les témoins d’une civilisation disparue par la folie des hommes

Maiden Voyage:
New Launch for M.R. Dairy Society. SUNRISE II.
About 1 p.m. on Thursday [20th November] a new launch tied up at the public wharf at the end of Pultney Street, Taree, on her maiden run. It was Sunrise II, completed this month as a cream and milk collecting launch for the Manning River Co Op. Dairy Society, Mitchell's Island factory. This trim little craft was specially designed for cream collecting purposes by Mr. C. Goodsell, who has been engineer to the factory for many years and knows just what is required in the way of a launch. With a capacity of about 15 tons, this launch is 40 ft long with a beam of 12 ft. for the greater part of the ship. She is fitted with a heavy belting right round the hull at deck level, to prevent the planking of the ship being damaged by bumping wharves. The vessel is constructed of beech planking with hardwood (spotted gum) timbers. The bottom of the hull is copper covered, the keel covered with steel, and the stem post shod with brass shoes. On the deck alone, the Sunrise II will carry 300 8-gaI. cans. The awning is very substantially carried and is designed for the carriage of freight. Considering that the hull was only launched on the 5th November, Mr. Goodsell lost no time in fitting the engines in the launch and completing the deck housing, etc. She was built on the Society's property at the factory, and is considered one of the most suitable launches for the work that the society so far possessed. Mr. W. O. Ryan, of Oxley Island, is the builder, and that speaks for excellent and permanent work. He knows his calling from end to end and puts in faithful workmanship. Loaded, the launch will draw only about 3ft. 6ins., and is thus well suited for the work she is designed to do. Sunrise II is fitted with a 44 h.p. Kelvin full Diesel engine and has a good turn of speed, being faster than any launch yet the property of the M.R. Society. It is intended that this launch will eventually be used for the collection of cream and milk on the Lower Manning and around Oxley Island. Sunrise II was launched on November 5. The headmasters at Mitchell's Island and Croki brought their children over to see it. Mr. D. Cowan (chairman of directors) presided at the ceremony. Mrs. L. C. Parker (wife of the manager of the factory) performed the christening. The directors have commissioned Mr. Ryan to build them another launch, somewhat smaller than the one under notice, for the run to Taree and Wingham.

The M.R. Co-op. Dairy Society's new launch, Sunrise II, is now in commission. The new vessel was specially designed for cream collecting by the factory engineer, Mr. C. Goodsell, and was built on the factory property, by Mr. W. O. Ryan, of Oxley Island, who has been commissioned by the directors to build a smaller launch to pick up between Taree and Wingham. The Sunrise II is 40 ft. long, 12 ft. beam and has a capacity of about 15 tons. She is powered with a 44 H.P. Kelvin- diesel engine and draws about 3 ½ ft. when loaded. The new boat is a trim little craft, and is ideal for the work she will have to perform.

1971
The end of an era.
A link with the Manning River's colourful past was severed on the first weekend in April 1971.
The last cream boat picked up milk from the river farms and returned to the Manning River Co-operative's wharf.
The run which lasted 72 years, was replaced by the gradual introduction of bulk milk vats throughout the district.
Milk is now placed into a refrigerator vat with a capacity of between 100 and 450 gallons. In the past they were placed in 10 gallon cans. Now instead of cans being collected from each farm daily, the bulk tankers need only call every second day. Supplement to the Manning River Times, Wed, 14th November , 1979.
