Based on a standard Polaroid 100 Automatic Land Camera, this camera has been extensively modified to be able to shoot at professional standards.
The original f8.8 lens and automatic shutter have been replaced with a 1950's, Zeiss Ikon 110mm, f4.5 Novonar, "Red V" edition lens, which is mounted in a Pronto size 0 shutter. The red "V" symbol on the lens means that it was made from Zeiss Ikon's highest quality glass and coatings. You can think of this lens as the Zeiss equivalent to the Canon L series of glass.
The shutter features full X-sync for flash, cable release socket, bulb mode and self timer, making it perfect for shooting in all scenarios. Best of all, the shutter has 10 aperture blades for a smooth circular aperture hole throughout the range. A Polaroid 180 and 195 in comparison only have 5 blades. This means smooth, circle-shaped bokeh-ball highlights instead of ugly pentagon-shaped ones.
The new 110mm lens is not only faster than the original lens, but also much sharper. The camera delivers sharpness and bokeh on par with a Polaroid 180. It features a beautifully shallow depth of field when wide open, with lovely bokeh. Coverage is 100% full frame, with no vignetting.
Features:
- Zeiss Ikon 110mm f4.5, "Red V" Novonar lens
- Pronto size 0 shutter, with bulb mode, cable release and X-sync for flash, range from 1/200th to bulb mode.
- Aperture range from f4.5 to f32
- fold-down Zeiss Ikon rangefinder/viewfinder with projected framelines and automatic parallax compensation
- Metal body
- Tripod socket
- Removable front cover
- Folding bellows design
- Neck strap
- Built in electronic countdown timer in the rear door (times how long your film needs to develop)
- Compatible with ALL Type 100 films, such as Fuji FP-100C and FP-3000B, as well as expired Polaroid brand films.
The 110mm, Zeiss lens has been re-calibrated and mounted to focus as optimal as possible with the original 114mm rangefinder. Sharp portraits on this camera are the number one priority, and that is where it excels. The close distances are 100% tack sharp, even when shot wide open at f4.5!
Any drift between finder and lens that occurs is minimal, and occurs only towards infinity distances, where would would usually stop down the aperture anyway (nobody wants to shoot a landscape picture wide open).
The front lens board was laboriously hand filed to shape to keep the camera looking original, and has been finished in a genuine black cowhide for added luxury.
Lastly, a German-made shutter release cable has been built into the body, to make it easy to fire the shutter.
Old Delhi (Hindi: पुरानी दिल्ली; Punjabi: ਪੁਰਾਣੀ ਦਿੱਲੀ; Urdu: پُرانی دِلّی; Purānī Dillī), is a walled city of Delhi, India, was founded as Shahjahanabad (Persian: شاه جهان آباد) by Mughal Emperor Shahjahan in 1639. It remained the capital of the Mughals until the end of the Mughal dynasty. It was once filled with mansions of nobles and members of the royal court, along with elegant mosques and gardens. Today, despite having become extremely crowded and dilapidated, it still serves as the symbolic heart of metropolitan Delhi.
HISTORY
The site of Shahjahanabad is north of earlier settlements of Delhi. Its southern part overlaps some of the area that was settled by the Tughlaqs in the 14th century when it was the seat of Delhi Sultanate. The sultanates ruled from Delhi between 1206 and 1526, when the last was replaced by the Mughal dynasty. The five dynasties were the Mamluk dynasty (1206–90), the Khalji dynasty (1290–1320), the Tughlaq dynasty (1320–1414), the Sayyid dynasty (1414–51), and the Lodi dynasty (1451–1526).
Delhi remained an important place for the Mughals, who built palaces and forts. Most importantly, it was Shah Jahan, who had the walled city built from 1638 to 1649, containing the Lal Qila and the Chandni Chowk. Daryaganj had the original cantonment of Delhi, after 1803, where a native regiment of Delhi garrison was stationed, which was later shifted to Ridge area. East of Daryaganj was Raj ghat Gate of the walled city, opening at Raj Ghat on Yamuna River. First wholesale market of Old Delhi opened as the hardware market in Chawri Bazaar in 1840, the next wholesale market was that of dry fruits, spices and herbs at Khari Baoli, opening in 1850. The Phool Mandi (Flower Market) of Daryaganj was established in 1869, and even today, despite serving a small geographical area, it is of great importance due to dense population.
After the fall of the Mughal Empire post 1857 revolt, the British Raj shifted the capital of India to a less volatile city, Calcutta, where it remained until 1911. After the announcement of the change, the British developed Lutyens' Delhi (in modern New Delhi) just south-west of Shahjahanabad. At this point, the older city started being called Old Delhi, as New Delhi became the seat of national government. It was formally inaugurated as such in 1931. Until the 1930s, few people ventured outside the walled city; thus in the following years, as the walled city got more and more congested, other areas around it were developed.
WALLS AND GATES
It is approximately shaped like a quarter cìrcle, with the Red Fort as the focal point. The old city was surrounded by a wall enclosing about 6.1 km2, with 14 gates:
- Nigambodh Gate: northeast, leading to historic Nigambodh Ghat on the Yamuna River
- Kashmiri Gate: north
- Mori Gate: north
- Kabuli gate: west
- Lahori gate: west close to the Sadar Railway station, Railway Colony, including the tomb of Syed Abdul Rehman Jilani Dehlvi.
- Ajmeri Gate: southeast, leading to Ghaziuddin Khan's Madrassa and Connaught Place, a focal point in New Delhi.
- Turkman Gate: southeast, close to some pre-Shahjahan remains which got enclosed within the walls, including the tomb of Hazrat Shah Turkman Bayabani.
- Delhi Gate: south leading to Feroz Shah Kotla and what was then older habitation of Delhi.
The surrounding walls, 3.7 m wide and 7.9 m tall, originally of mud, were replaced by red stone in 1657. In the Mughal period, the gates were kept locked at night. The walls have now largely disappeared, but most of the gates are still present. The township of old Delhi is still identifiable in a satellite image because of the density of houses.
The famous Khooni Darwaza, south of Delhi Gate and just outside the walled city, was originally constructed by Sher Shah Suri.
Streets and neighbourhoods
The main street, now termed Chandni Chowk, runs from the Red Fort to Fatehpuri Masjid. Originally a canal ran through the middle of the street.
North of the street, there is the mansion of Begum Samru, now called Bhagirath Palace. South is the street is Dariba Kalan, a dense residential area, beyond which is Jama Masjid. Daryaganj is a section that used to border the river at Rajghat and Zeenat-ul-Masajid.
The Urdu language emerged from the Urdu Bazaar section of Old Delhi. The Din Dunia magazine and various other Urdu publications are the reason of this language staying alive.
MAIN ARTERIES
- Netaji Subhash Marg/Bahadur Shah Zafar Marg leading to India Gate (north and south)
- Chandni Chowk/Khari Bawli Road (east and west)
Old Delhi is approximately bounded by these modern roads:
- Gokhle Marg (south)
- Mahatma Gandhi Marg road (east)
- Shraddhananda Rd (west)
- Jawaharlal Nehru Marg (south)
In 1876, Carr Stephen described the city as follows:
Of the two streets described by François Bernier, the longer extended from the Lahore Gate of the city to the Lahore Gate of the citadel, and the other from the Delhi Gate of the city to the Lahore Gate of the fort. Both these streets were divided into several sections, each of which was known by a different name.
The section between the Lahore Gate of the fort and the entrance of the street called the Dariba, known as the Khuni Darwazah, was called the Urdu or the Military Bazaar; owing, very probably, to the circumstances of a portion of the local garrison having been once quartered about the place. Between the Khuni Darwazah and the present Kotwali, or the Head Police Station of the city, the street has the name of Phul ka Mandi or the flower market. The houses in front of the Kotwali were built at a short distance from the line of the rest of the houses in the street, so as to form a square.
Between the Kotwali and the gate known as the Taraiah, was the Jauhari or the Jewellers' Bazaar; between the Taraiah and the neighbourhood known as Asharfi ka Katra, was, par excellence, the Chandni Chauk. There was a tank in the centre of the Chauk the site of which is now occupied by the Municipal Clock Tower, and beyond this to the Fatehpuri Masjid was the Fatehpuri Bazaar. The houses round Chandni Chauk were of the same height, and were ornamented with arched doors and painted verandahs. To the north and south of the square there were two gate-ways, the former leading to the Sarai of Jehan Ara Begum, and the latter to one of the most thickly populated quarters of the city. Round the tank the ground was literally covered with vegetable, fruit, and sweetmeat stalls. In the course of time the whole of this long street came to be known as the Chandni Chauk.
This grand street was laid out by Jahanara Begam, daughter of Shah Jahan. From the Lahore Gate of the fort to the end of the Chandni Chauk the street was about 40 yards wide and 1,520 yards long. Through the centre of this street ran the canal of 'Ali Mardan, shaded on both sides by trees. On the eastern end of the Chandni Chauk stands the Lahore Gate of the Fort, and on the opposite end the handsome mosque of Fatehpuri Begam).
The clock tower no longer exists, although the locationn is still called Ghantaghar. The Sarai of Jehan Ara Begum has been replaced by the city hall. The kotwali is now adjacent to Gurdwara Sis Ganj Sahib.

OLD DELHI CUISINE
Old Delhi is well known for its cuisine. There area in and around Jama Masjid and Lal Kuan are predominantly Muslim. Hence the cuisine here is more meat dominant Mughlai cuisine. The area in and around Chandni Chowk is predominantly Jain and Baniya communities. Hence the food is strictly vegetarian and in a lot of cases made without onion and garlic. The famous Gali Paranthe Wali and Ghantewala halwai are also situated here.
Old Delhi is also famous for its street food. Chandni Chowk and Chawri Bazaar areas have many street joints that sell spicy chaat (tangy and spicy snacks).
WIKIPEDIA
We had a weekend in Borrowdale recently, a Christmas present that we tagged a day on to. After calling at work on Saturday morning to open for business we headed up the motorway to Penrith. The road through the central lakes was washed away in the recent floods and it is going to be a long job replacing it. This made the diverted journey around 145 miles but we had a good run up there. We wanted to get walking ASAP so we pulled in at Threlkeld with a view to heading up Clough Head, and subject to conditions, head over the Dodds and back by the Old Coach Road. We had left appalling weather at home, wind, rain, fog and sleet on the tops. Thankfully it was better further north. There was laying snow on the summits, it was fairly calm low down and some summits were cloud free.
We left the car at 11.10 in our winter gear, straight up through the quarries and the steep scree slope (another Red Screes), by now we were into the snow line. The cloud was down, the wind gale force and the summit frozen hard – a different world up here. South next to Calfhow Pike, the wind made it difficult to talk and it was around -4 so the there was a fair wind-chill factor. It was tough going to our next top – Great Dodd, part of the Helvellyn massif – It was to icy to walk in places which meant deviating from the path, and losing our bearings, visibility was around ten yards with spindrift creating a whiteout at times. We battled on to the top and found the summit cairn. Great Dodd isn’t the easiest top to find your way off in low visibility, we would have gone further but in these conditions it was pointless so we retraced our steps to Calfhow and clear conditions. From here we followed Mosedale beck to Mariel Bridge, which is on the Old Coach Road, this gave us a circular route back to our start. The Old Coach Road has been wrecked by the floods and the 4x4 off roaders are making it a lot worse. 9.25 miles in 3 ¼ hours and we were in Brysons Tearooms in Keswick for Coffee and cake by 3.45pm. We carried on to Borrowdale and checked in at our hotel, not a bad day really.
After a poor night in a poor bed we were breakfasted and out for 8.30. We drove the few miles up to Seatoller and we were kitted up and away at 9.10. A bitterly cold and icy morning, there was some sun but not as much as promised. We could see the summit of Great End covered in cloud, we were heading up there on to the Sca Fell massif. We followed the valley to the east of Seathwaite Fell, a new path for us. Once in the snow the going was very icy with the path ice covered in places. The snow was dry and powdery and in places it had blown over the underlying ice. At this point I might add, we do own crampons. After a winter of splashing around soaked we didn’t expect to need them and they were at home – very clever! This was our first real winters day this winter, other than an hour on Sca Fell Pike on Christmas Day, we haven’t seen winter conditions this winter. By the time we got to Esk Hause it was difficult to stay upright and on our way to Great End we had to pick our way very carefully around the worst of the ice. The spindrift made it difficult to see the ground at times, spinning around our feet in a mist. Once on the summit the cloud was thick and the wind speed high. We had been here fairly recently so I knew the layout of the summit and we had little difficulty finding the summit cairn. We were cursing our lack of crampons and the cloud. Instead of heading into the cloud along the Sca Fell Pike path we decided to get under the cloud, back to Esk Hause and head over Allen Crags and Glaramara. At this point we both took some heavy falls, as did others up there, a lot turned around and headed back down, it was deadly. The cloud had thickened, there wasn’t a ray of sun to soften things. Our chosen route was one of the hardest afternoons we had ever had. Everywhere was frozen solid, we had to kick toe or heel holes to move on slopes that we wouldn’t have broken stride on normally. Minor rock scrambles down steep crags had become life threatening in places and we proceeded with extreme care. The knees were creaking on the long descent to Seathwaite. 10.3 miles in six hours, almost half the speed of yesterday. We made it Keswick for afternoon tea – and bought some Micro Spikes for unfinished business to deal with tomorrow. A beautiful day was forecast so fingers crossed we headed back for a soak in the tub.
Day three, a gorgeous icy, sunny winters day. Things looked promising. We left along yesterday’s route at the same start time – with walking poles and Micro Spikes! At the top of the valley we met a guy who had set off before us, two guys known to him were picking their way through the crags, tiny specks on the 800 foot rocky crag. Some appeared to have tried to climb the snow filled chimney that runs to the summit but we heard later that conditions weren’t suitable. Even though it was minus four the sun had softened the snow just enough to get a grip and it was easier to avoid the worst of the ice, unlike yesterday. The summit of Great End was incredible with never ending vistas. We could see a steady stream of walkers on every path by now. Word had got out that we were in for a rare treat today, plus it was school half term so a lot of people were off work. I visited every possible viewpoint as we went to the summit of Ill Crag , Broad Crag and finally Sca Fell Pike. It was 1.00 PM by now and a steady stream of elated walkers were arriving on England’s highest point. It was bitter but beautiful. We had around five miles back to the car along the Corridor Route to Styhead, Stockley Bridge and Seathwaite. Part of this route we had covered recently on Christmas Day and despite the snow and ice we powered along. We would have been back in two hours but! A mile from the car, following the manmade path down Taylorgill Force to Stockley Bridge Jayne Stumbled. It’s not often she walks in front. I normally lead and relay instructions and warnings back to her. She hit the rock path with her head and face really hard, stunned, she rolled off the path over a drop. She was vertical, resting on a rock on her knees and clinging on to the edge of the path with her fingertips. I grabbed her rucksack and held her whilst I checked her injuries. She had a bad bump on her temple, another on her forehead, split the bridge or her nose, her glasses had gone flying but would straighten. Being left handed she had stuck her left hand out and it had been bent back, it was swelling and discolouring pretty fast. When I had established that nothing was serious enough to stop her moving I got her back on to the path to see to her injuries. The pain initially made her think that she was in a worse state than ( I thought) she really was. She could move her fingers and wrist, albeit with some pain but not enough for it to be broken. The wound to the bridge of her nose although very painful wasn’t going to be a problem. The bumps on her head were turning into eggs by now. I gave her Ibuprofen and Paracetemol and she sat and composed herself for the final mile. We made it to the café in Keswick and got a slightly later afternoon break, our first of the day again. 11.3 miles today in 6 ¼ hours and fairly tough going. It was nothing more than a careless, tired perhaps, stumble on one of the horrible ( our own opinion, I might add) manmade paths made out of irregular stones which are laid at odd angles and are a nightmare to descend when wet on tired legs. A few days later and Jayne is sat on reception at the doctors looking like she’s been boxing, with a purple eye and nose, her left hand swollen and purple – otherwise she’s OK. I came down with mild food poisoning during the night and had to drive 145 miles home at 8.00 the morning after feeling extremely ill. I was due to start fasting for a Colonoscopy in three days. I ended up eating six slices of toast over a four day period – Monday evening to Thursday evening- Having had over 40 stomach endoscopies in twenty years the colonoscopy was nothing more than uncomfortable and , subject to biopsy results, everything looked OK. The trapped wind was another matter – for two days! All in all a very traumatic week. Needless to say we didn’t use the Micro Spikes.

Bulldogs were replaced with Huskies at Drake University's Knapp Center as it played host to Hoover High School's commencement. Hoover celebrated nearly 200 members of the Class of 2022 at their graduation ceremony on Sunday, May 29.
We are replacing the door and window on the left with three lovely new windows that will let a ton of light into our kitchen and be high enough that I can put in bottom cabinets and a counter on that side. The railing, light post, and stone stairs will be removed and we will use the stone for stairs on the other side of the house.
Nothing scary or unexpected on this side of the house. Foundation looks good.
As seems to always be the case, there was a cat skeleton under the porch. You can look if you like. Don't complain to me if you look and are sorry!

Tōdai-ji (東大寺), or the Great Eastern Temple, is the Japanese headquarters of the Kegon school of Buddhism and one of Japan’s most famous and historically significant temples. Constructed in 752 as the head temple of all provincial Buddhist temples of Japan under the order of Emperor Shōmu, it quickly grew so powerful that the capital was moved out of Nara to lower its influence on government affairs. Its Great Buddha Hall (大仏殿, Daibutsuden), the largest wooden building in the world, houses the world's largest bronze statue of the Great Buddha Vairocana, known in Japanese simply as Daibutsu (大仏). According to records kept by Tōdai-ji, more than 2.6 million people in total helped construct the Great Buddha and its hall.
Under the Ritsuryō system of government in the Nara Period, Buddhism was heavily regulated by the state through the Sōgō (僧綱, Office of Priestly Affairs), and Tōdai-ji served as the central administrative temple for the provincial temples for the six Buddhist schools in Japan at the time: the Hossō, Kegon, Jōjitsu, Sanron, Ritsu and Kusha. But as the center of power in Japanese Buddhism shifted away from Nara to Mount Hiei and the Tendai sect, and later when the capital of Japan moved to Kamakura, Tōdai-ji's authoritative role declined as well.
The Nandaimon (南大門), or Great South Gate, the 19-meter high entrance gate to Tōdai-ji, is a reconstruction dating to 1199, replacing the original gate which was destroyed in 1180. It is guarded by two 28-foot tall statues, built around the same time by at around the same time by Unkei, Kaikei and their workshop members, of Niō warrior gods, or Deva Kings, each with one hand up (to welcome those with pure hearts) and one hand down (to suppress impure hearts). The open-mouthed statue on the left, pronouncing the first letter of the Sanskrit alphabet, ah, is called "Agyo", meaning beginning or birth. The closed-mouth statue on the right, pronouncing the last letter, un, is called "Ungyo", meaning the ending or death. The two figures restored between 1988 and 1993. Until then, they had never before been moved from the niches in which they were originally installed.
Tōdai-ji, along with several Buddhist temples including Kōfuku-ji, Kasuga Taisha, the remains of Heijō Palace, and other sites in Nara, comprise the UNESCO World Heritage Site, Historic Monuments of Ancient Nara, inscribed in 1999.
City of Wilmington, Delaware, Pierce Arrow 1500 gallon per minute Pumper. This unit replaced the earlier Seagrave Apparatus, taken July 1997.
The first organ at Saint-Léon was a 2-manual organ built by Casavant in 1909 (Opus 384). It was replaced, in 1941, with a 3-manual organ built by organbuilder Odilon Jacques.
In the spring of 1993, the construction of the new organ began following the adopted detailed plan in accordance with the 1992 tender: a modern organ having all the required qualities for liturgical functions and who would permit the interpretation of musical reportory and more specifically the French, Italian and Spanish repertories of the classical era.
After more than 2 years, the organ project became reality and it presents a synthesis instrument with a large latin accent while being a North-American production. It calls for 32 stops divided among two manuals and pedal. The transmission is mechanical and the stops are activated by electric motors. The organ-case, designed in collaboration with the church's architect, Alain Fournier, has been built using painted solid poplar. The facade pipes, in polished tin, belong to the Montre and Prestant of the Great manual and of the Flute of the Pedal division. Trumpets and regals pipework, en chamade, takes up the center of the instrument and is laid out horizontally. The polychrome decoration was realized by Yves Guillemette and Oday Phimphavong.
The interior of the organ, vast and spacious, allowed a logical layout of the transmission mechanisms for the manuals and pedal: the Great Organ division occupies the central part, the expressive Recit division, located in the rear, is slightly heightened above the Great Organ, and the Pedal division is divided on both sides of the instrument.
The lower part of the organcase contains all transmission mechanims (trackers, rollerboards) and the wind supply: conechests for the Great Organ and the Recit and two singlefold reservoirs for the Pedal.
The console is integrated into the organcase. The two 58-note manuals has natural keys covered with ebony and the sharps with Brazilian rosewood and oxe-bone. The 32-note pedal keys are made of maplewood. The ebony made drawstops are divided on both side of the manuals. An electronic combinator / computer allows to pre-program series of combinations that will be availble upon pushing a button. This combinator was made in Quebec and was a first one for Syncordia International, a firm located in St. Lambert.
The sound material was realized using pitches that would produce the wanted voice and color as required by the specifications. The voicing was done in the church to insure good dynamics and volume. The organ is tuned to A-440 and has temperaments equal to the 7ths.
The inaugural recitals took place on October 20, 21 and 22, 1995 with recitals by titular Lucienne L'Heureux-Arel, an oboe and organ recital with Jean LeBuis (organ) and Rémi Collard (oboe), and a 2 trumpets and organ recital with Réal Gauthier (organ), Manon Lafrance and Charles Lazarus (trumpets).
Another quality Obot bulb bites the dust.. all my 1997 incandescent bulbs still outlasting the "green" bulbs .
After the bulb burned out releasing hideous foul gas in my house as it died, it will be replace with a incandescent bulb that isn't yellow. frikin garbage .The bulbs fizzling death troughs is icing on the cake as is the ending comment , fitting.
Replacing the 626 in Mazda's lineup, the first generation of the 6 was produced between 2002 and 2008 and was offered in three versions: a saloon, a 5-door hatchback, and the estate pictured here.
The car seen here is the sportier '6s' version equipped with a 3.0-litre V6 engine. Sales were not strong in North America, and the 6 Estate was dropped in these markets after this generation.

Leased from Lauda Air and operated for Lufthansa by Condor Flugdienst with this 'colour reversal' tail livery.
This aircraft was delivered to Lauda Air as OE-LAZ in Aug-99. Lauda Air was taken over by Austrian Airlines in Dec-00 but continued to operate as a separate entity until it was officially merged into Austrian in Apr-05.
The aircraft was leased to Lufthansa in Mar-03 and repainted in full 'Star Alliance' livery. It was re-registered D-ABUW in Apr-03 and operated for Lufthansa by Condor Flugdienst.
It was returned to Lauda Air on Oct-04 and they were merged into Austrian Airlines in Apr-05 and initially operated ex Lauda charter services. Blended Winglets were added in May-09.
In Jul-12 after a number of strikes in various areas, Austrian transferred all its aircraft to Tyrolean Airways and staff had to re-apply for positions with Tyrolean. The airline continued to operate as Austrian Airlines with additional small 'Operated by Tyrolean Airways' titles.
.In Mar-15 a new labour agreement was signed with the Unions and Tyrolean Airways was re-integrated into Austrian Airlines. Now 25 years old the aircraft continues in service. Updated 25-Dec-24.
1957 Aston Martin DB2/4 Mk2 Tickford Coupe Concours RestoredThe Aston Martin DB2/4, launched in 1953 replaced the Aston Martin DB2 and made for a far more useable car than its predecessor with repositioned headlamps, wraparound windscreens and larger bumpers, as well as a 2+2 seating arrangement. This was only approved with later examples such as ours, featuring the 2.9 Litre WO Bentley in its largest configuration prior to its replacement with the 3.7 Litre Straight Six used in the Aston DB4.
Several body styles were offered, the primary 3 being the Saloon, the Drophead Coupé and the Fixed-Head Coupe by Tickford of which only 34 cars, one of which was owned by none other than David Brown himself! They were an elegant, notchback shaped Coupé with subtle lines and all came together for a far lighter looking car than the regular Saloon. With seating for 4 and performance to boot, this made for a serious grand tourer to rival its contemporaries.
Finished in a stunning colour combination of Moonbeam Grey over Metallic Dark Grey, having been subject to a complete, body-off, nut and bolt Concours restoration. No detail has been forgotten and the car is arguably better than new. The interior, as with the exterior, has been upholstered to the finest standards in rich, Red Connolly Vaumol Hide with Wilton Carpets and burr Walnut veneered dashboard. The specification of this car alone is hard to beat, only further complemented by the colour coded wire wheels, giving the car a more sporting and menacing stance. All in all, certainly one of the very best DB2 Tickfords in the world, let alone one of the best Aston Martin DB2s you could possibly wish to find. Perfect addition to any prestigious collection or, if you’ve more competitive goals, notably Mille Miglia Age Eligible. Not to be missed.

NSR Sprinter near the Lickebaert Polder in between Vlaardingen and Maassluis. Farmers are not allowed to produce milk and cheese here as it can be contaminated with dioxines from a nearby waste burning facility.
Starting next year the 1891 Rotterdam - Hoek van Holland railroad will be rebuilt into a subway route. The Netherlands Railways (NSR) trains will be replaced with Rotterdam subway cars. The 30 km long route starts at Hoek van Holland Strand and runs parallel to the 1865 Nieuwe Waterweg, the main gateway to the Rotterdam harbor. The route passes old industrial towns like Maassluis and Vlaardingen, and therefor offers many interesting photo opportunities. Infrastructure looks a bit run down, but with the upcoming rebuild not much is done here.
St Mary stands on a hill overlooking what was once the sea and sand spit of land that Sandwich still sits. The sea has receded, but St Mary is still there, its wooden cupola topped tower visible for those who look for it, or notice these things in the 21st Century.
This was my third visit to the Blessed Mary, first time I found it locked, second time wardens were preparing it for the Nativity service.
It was open, and even had a welcoming sign hanging near to the gate to the churchyard, always welcome.
-----------------------------------------
The tower makes this church one of the easiest in Kent to identify. It is capped by a little cupola and wooden balustrade of eighteenth-century date that replaced a medieval spire. During the Middle Ages the church was owned by Leeds Priory which invested heavily in the structure, and was no doubt responsible for the excellent sedilia built in about 1350. The canopy is supported by a quadripartite vault in turn supported by angry little heads. Above the sedilia is the cut-off end of a prickett beam. The east window, of Decorated style stonework, has a thirteenth-century hangover in the form of a shafted rere-arch. There are two excellent modern stained glass windows designed by F.W Cole, which show the Creation (1980) and St Francis (1992). The good altar rails are of Queen Anne's reign, as are the splendid Royal Arms.

WOODNESBOROUGH,
¶OR Winsborough, as it is usually called, lies the next parish northward from Eastry, being written in the survey of Domesday, Wanesberge. It took its name according to Verstegan, from the Saxon idol Woden, (and it is spelt by some Wodensborough) whose place of worship was in it; however that may be, the termination of the word berge, or borough, shews it to be of high antiquity.
art of this parish, over which the manor of Boxley claims, is within the jurisdiction of the justices of the town and port of Sandwich, and liberty of the cinque ports; and the residue is in the hundred of Eastry, and jurisdiction of the county of Kent.
There are three boroughs in this parish, viz. Cold Friday, Hamwold, and Marshborough; the borsholders of which are chosen at the petty sessions of the justices, acting at Wingham, for the east division of the lath of St. Augustine.
THIS PARISH is large, being two miles and an half one way, and upwards of a mile and an half the other. The church stands nearly in the centre of it, on high ground. At a small distance from the church is Woodnesborough hill, both of which are sea marks. This hill is a very high mount, seemingly thrown up by art, and consisting of a sandy earth, it has been thought by some to have been the place on which the idol Woden from whom this place is supposed to have taken its name) was worshipped in the time of the Saxons; by others to be the burial place of Vortimer, the Saxon king, who died in 457, whilst others suppose this mount was raised over those who fell in the battle fought between Ceoldred, king of Mercia, and Ina, king of the West Saxons, in the year 715, at Woodnesbeorb, according to the Saxon chronicle, which name Dr. Plot supposes to be Woodnesborough. Vortimer, as our historians tell us, at his death, desired to be buried near the place where the Saxons used to land, being persuaded that his bones would deter them from any attempt in future. Though authors differ much on the place of his burial, yet this mount at Woodnesborough is as probable, or more so, perhaps, than any other, for it was near to, and was cast up so high as to be plainly seen from the Portus Rutupinus, which at that time was the general landing place of the Saxon fleets. Some years ago there were found upon the top of it sundry sepulchral remains, viz. a glass vessel (engraved by the Rev. Mr. Douglas, in his Nænia;) a fibula, (engraved by Mr. Eoys, in his collections for Sandwich;) the head of a spear, and some fragments of Roman vessels. Much of the earth of sand has been lately removed round the sides of it, but nothing further has been found.
At a small distance northward from hence, at the bottom of a short steep hill, lies the village called Woodnesborough-street, and sometimes Cold Fridaystreet, containing thirty four houses. The vicaragehouse is situated in the middle of it, being a new handsome building; almost contiguous to it is a handsome sashed house, belonging to the Jull family, now made use of as a poor-house; through this street the road leads to Sandwich. West ward of the street stands the parsonage-house, late the seat of Oliver Stephens, esq. deceased, and now of his window, as will be further noticed hereafter. Besides the manors and estates in this parish, particularly described, in the western parts of it there are several hamlets, as Somerfield, Barnsole, Coombe, with New-street, Great and Little Flemings, Ringlemere, and the farm of Christians Court.
In the north east part of the parish, the road from Eastry, by the parsonage of Woodnesborough northwestward, divides; one road, which in antient deeds is called Lovekys-street, going towards Ash-street; the other through the hamlet of Marshborough, formerly called Marshborough, alias Stipins, to Each End and Sandwich, the two windmills close to the entrance of which are with in the bounds of this parish. Each, Upper Each, called antiently Upriche, and Each End, antiently called Netheriche, were both formerly accounted manors, and are mentioned as such in the marriage settlement of Henry Whyte, esq. in the beginning of queen Elizabeth's reign. After the Whytes, these manors passed in like manner as Grove, in this parish, to the James's. Upper Each, or Upriche, has for many years belonged to the family of Abbot, of Ramsgate, and is now the property of John Abbot, esq. of Canterbury. Each End, or Netheriche, belongs, one moiety to the heirs or devisees of the late earl of Strafford, and the other moiety to John Matson, esq. of Sandwich.
¶It cannot but occur to the reader how much this parish abounds with Saxon names, besides the name of Wodens borough, the street of Cold Friday, mentioned before, is certainly derived from the Saxon words, Cola, and Friga, which latter was the name of a goddess, worshipped by the Saxons, and her day Frige-deag, from whence our day of Friday is derived; other places in this parish, mentioned before likewise, claim, surely, their original from the same language.
This parish contains about 3000 acres, the whole rents of it being about 3373l. yearly value. It is very bare of coppice wood; the Old Wood, so called, in Ringleton, being the only one in it. The soil of this parish is very rich and fertile, equal to those the most so in this neighbourhood, particularly as to the plantations of hops, which have much increased within these few years past. The middle of the parish is high ground, and is in general a flat open country of arable common fields. West and south-westward the lands are more inclosed with hedges. North and north-westward of the parsonage, towards Sandwich, they are low and wet, consisting of a large level of marsh land, the nearness of which makes the other parts of this parish rather unhealthy, which is not otherwise very pleasant in any part of it. There was a fair held here yearly, on Holy Thursday, but it has been for some time disused.
In Ringleton field, in this parish, there was found about the year 1514, a fine gold coin, weighing about twelve shillings, with a loop of the same metal to hang it by; on one side was the figure of a young man in armour, a helmet on his head, and a spear over his right shoulder; on the reverse, the figure of Victory, with a sword in her hand, the point downwards.
The church, which is dedicated to St. Mary, consists of a nave, and two isles, having a square tower steeple at the west end, with a modern wooden turret and vane at the top of it, in which are five bells, made in 1676. It had a high spire on the tower, which was taken down some years ago. At the east end of the chancel is a marble tablet for John Cason, esq. of this place, justice of the peace, obt. 1718; John Cason, esq. his son, obt. 1755; arms,Argent, a chevron, sable, between three wolves heads, erased, gules, on an escutcheon of pretence, sable, a chevron, between three fleurs de lis, of the field; another for Thomas Blechenden, of the antient family of that name, of Aldington, in Kent, obt. 1661; arms, Azure, a fess nebulee, argent, between three lions heads erased, or, attired, gules, impalingBoys. On the south side, an antient altar monument with gothic pillars and arches, having had shields and arms, now obliterated. Against the wall, under the canopy, two brass plates, which have been removed to this place, from two grave-stones in the chancel; the first for Sir John Parcar, late vicar of this church, who died the v.day of May, a°o dni m° v° xiij° on the second are Latin verses to the memory of Nichs Spencer, esq. obt. 1593. In the middle of the chancel, a gravestone for William Docksey, esq. of Snellston, in Derbyshire, a justice of the peace, obt. 1760; Sarah his wife, youngest daughter of John Cason, esq. obt. 1774; arms,Or, a lion rampant, azure, surmounted of a bend, argent. On a gravestone on the north side of the chancel, on a brass plate, On a chevron, three quatersoils, between three annulets, quartering other coats, now obliterated, for Master Myghell Heyre, sumtyme vicar of this churche, who dyed the xxii day of July, m° v° xxviii. In the north isle are several memorials for the family of Gillow, arms, A lion rampant, in chief, three fleurs de lis. At the entrance into the chancel, on a grave-stone, on a brass plate, John Hill, gent. of the parish of Nassall, in Staffordshire, obt. 1605. A mural monument for William Gibbs, of this parish, obt. 1777; arms,Argent, three battle axes, in fess, sable. In the church-yard are altar tombs to the memory of the Julls, and for Sladden; one for John Verall, gent. sometime mayor of Sandwich, obt. 1610; and another for John Benchkin, of Pouton, obt. 1639.
There were formerly painted in the windows of this church,Or, a chief indented, azure, for John de Sandwich. Several coats of arms, among which were those of Valence and St. Leger,Argent, three leaves in sinster bend, their points downward, proper.— On a canton, azure, three crescents, or, for Grove.— Argent, three escallops in chief, or, in base a crescent, gules, for Helpestone, usually called Hilpurton, bailiff of Sandwich, in 1299. A shield, being Helpeston's badge, another On a fess engrailed, three cinquefoils, between three garbs, for John Hill, of Nasall, in Staffordshire, who lies buried in this church. —A fess engrailed, three lions rampant, in chief, on the fess, a crescent for difference, for Spencer, customer, of Sandwich. — Quarterly, four coats; first, On a chevron, three quaterfoils; second, Per pale, ermine and argent; third, A cross, between four pomegranates, slipped; sourth,Three bars, wavy, for Michael Heyre, vicar here in 1520.
The church of Woodnesborough was given, in the reign of king Henry I. by a religious woman, one Ascelina de Wodensberg, to the priory of Ledes, soon after the foundation of it; to which deed was witness Robert de Crevequer, founder of the priory, Elias his son, and others; which gift was confirmed by the said Robert, who by his charter, released to the priory all his right and title to it. It was likewise confirmed by archbishop Theobald, and several of his successors, and by king Henry III. by his charter of inspeximus in his 41st year.
Archbishop William Corboil, who came to the see of Canterbury, three years after the foundation of Ledes priory, at the instance and petition of Ascelina above mentioned, who resigned this church into his hands for this purpose, appropriated it to the prior and convent, for the finding of necessary cloaths, for the canons there; and a vicarage was accordingly endowed in it.
There was a controversy between the prior and convent, and Adam, vicar of this church, in 1627, anno 14 Henry II. concerning the great tithes arising from the crofts and curtilages within this parish, which was referred to the prior of Rochester, who was the pope's delegate for this purpose, who determined that the prior and convent of Ledes, as rectors of this church, should receive, without any exception, all the great tithes of wheat, barley, oats, beans, peas, and of every fort of corn arising, or to arise from all lands, crofts, curtilages, or other places whatever, situated within the bounds, of this parish; and that the prior and convent should yearly pay to the said vicar, and his successors, half a seam of barley, and half a seam of beans, at the nativity of our Lord. (fn. 10)
¶After which, this parsonage appropriate,(which appears to have been esteemed as a manor) together with the advowson of the vicarage, remained with the prior and convent of Ledes, till its dissolution in the 31st year of king Henry VIII. when it was, with all its lands and possessions, surrendered into the king's hands, who by his dotation charter, in his 33d year, settled both parsonage and advowson on his new-founded dean and chapter of Rochester, with whom they remain at this time. On the dissolution of deans and chapters, after the death of king Charles I. this parsonage was surveyed in 1649, when is appeared that the manor or parsonage of Woodnesborough, with the scite thereof, and all manner of tithes belonging to it, with a garden and orchard of one acre, was valued all together at 300l. that the lessee was to repair the premises, and the chancel of the church; that the vicarage was worth fifty pounds per annum. The then incumbent was under sequestration, and there was none to serve the cure; and that the church was then quite ruinated, and in great decay. (fn. 11)
Pisa Baptistery of St. John (Battistero di San Giovanni) is a Roman Catholic ecclesiastical building in Pisa, Italy. Construction started in 1152 to replace an older baptistery, and when it was completed in 1363, it became the second building, in chronological order, in the Piazza dei Miracoli, near the Duomo di Pisa and the cathedral's free-standing campanile, the famous Leaning Tower of Pisa. The baptistery was designed by Diotisalvi, whose signature can be read on two pillars inside the building, with the date 1153. It is largest baptistery in Italy and an example of the transition from the Romanesque style to the Gothic style: the lower section is in the Romanesque style, with rounded arches, while the upper sections are in the Gothic style, with pointed arches. The Baptistery is constructed of marble, as is common in Italian architecture. The portal, facing the facade of the cathedral, is flanked by two classical columns, while the inner jambs are executed in Byzantine style. The lintel is divided in two tiers. The lower one depicts several episodes in the life of St. John the Baptist, while the upper one shows Christ between the Madonna and St John the Baptist, flanked by angels and the evangelists. The interior is overwhelming and lacks decoration. The octagonal font at the centre dates from 1246 and was made by Guido Bigarelli da Como. The bronze sculpture of St. John the Baptist at the centre of the font, is a work by Italo Griselli. The pulpit was sculpted between 1255-1260 by Nicola Pisano, father of Giovanni, the artist who produced the pulpit in the Duomo. The scenes on the pulpit, and especially the classical form of the nude Hercules, show Nicola Pisano's qualities as the most important precursor of Italian Renaissance sculpture by reinstating antique representations: surveys of the Italian Renaissance often begin with the year 1260, the year that Nicola Pisano dated this pulpit. Constructed on the same unstable sand as the tower and cathedral, the Baptistery leans 0.6 degrees toward the cathedral. Originally the shape of the Baptistery, according to the project by Diotisalvi, was different. It was perhaps similar to the church of Holy Sepulchre in Pisa, with its pyramidal roof. After the death of the architect, Nicola Pisano continued the work, changing the style to the more modern Gothic one. Also an external roof was added giving the shape of a cupola. As a side effect of the two roofs, the pyramidal inner one and the domed external one, the interior is acoustically perfect, making of that space a resonating chamber. The exterior of the dome is clad with lead sheets on its east side (facing the cathedral) and red tiles on its west side (facing the sea), giving a half grey and half red appearance from the south. In 1987, the whole square was declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site / Pisa is a city and comune in Tuscany, central Italy, straddling the Arno River just before it empties into the Ligurian Sea. It is the capital city of the Province of Pisa. Although Pisa is known worldwide for its leaning tower (the bell tower of the city's cathedral), the city of over 100,000 residents contains more than 20 other historic churches, several medieval palaces, and various bridges across the Arno. Much of the city's architecture was financed from its history as one of the Italian maritime republics. The city is also home of the University of Pisa, which has a history going back to the 12th century and also has the Scuola Normale Superiore di Pisa, founded by Napoleon in 1810, and its offshoot, the Sant'Anna School of Advanced Studies, as the best-sanctioned Superior Graduate Schools in Italy

A somewhat confusing history... Delivered new to Overseas National Airways in May-69 as N864F, it was briefly leased to Air Afrique in Oct/Nov-77. It was sold to Seaboard World Airlines in Dec-77 and leased to Capitol International Airways in May-79, returning to Seaboard World in Nov-79.
It was then immediately leased to Saudi Arabian Airlines Cargo. In the meantime Seaboard World was merged into Flying Tiger Line in Oct-80 and Saudi Arabian returned the aircraft to them in Mar-81 when it was re-registered N774FT.
It was sold to the 'new' Overseas National Airways in Apr-81 (the 'old' ONA ceased trading in 1978 and a new company took over the name) and leased to Wein Air Alaska the following month. It was re-registered N906R with Wein Air Alaska in May-81.
The aircraft was returned to ONA in Jul-82. Over the next two years it was leased to several airlines, Airlift International (Nov-82/Jul-83), Air India (Jul/Oct-83 and Nov-83). In the meantime ONA had been renamed National Airlines and Air India returned it to them in Dec-84.
In Jan-85 it was sold to ATASCO Leasing and leased back to National Airlines. It was again leased to Air India (Feb/Jul-85). National Airlines ceased trading in Feb-86 and the aircraft was sold to Emery Worldwide in Mar-86.
They sold it to Aerolease Financial Group in Jun-88 and leased it back. It was returned to Aerolease in Jun-95. ATI Air Transport International leased it in Jul-95. It was sold to Aerofreighter LLC in Dec-99 while the lease to ATI continued.
It was returned to Aerofreighter LLC in Jan-02 and was stored at Marana, AZ, USA, where it was eventually broken up.
This old International truck looks to be about 1947-49 model. The license plate has expired years ago.

West Harlem, Manhattan, New York City, New York, United States
St. Mary's Protestant Episcopa) Church in Manhattanville has been in continuous service for almost 175 years on its original site. In 1823, the village founders solicited the Rev. William Richmond, rector of St. Michael's in Bioomingdale, who had been conducting services in a mission schoo! in Manhattanville for three years, to help them organize this parish and a free school. A white wood frame church building with a steeple was constructed in 1824-26 facing Lawrence Street . Several generations of Manhattanville's founding families have worshipped at St. Mary's including Jacob Schieffelin, who laid out the village's roads, and his wife Hanna Lawrence, whose surname marked the street on which they donated the land to erect the first church building. In 1831, in deference to the poor constituents of its parish, St. Mary's abolished pew rentals, becoming the first "free pew" Protestant Episcopal church in the city.
The parish house, when erected as a parsonage in 1851, housed the village's first resident clergyman. In 1890, St. Mary's commissioned a Sunday school building, now located at the rear of the church, by architect George Keister. In 1908-09, the frame church was replaced by the present English Gothic-style brick church designed by Theodore E. Blake with the prestigious Carrere & Hastings firm. Despite the urbanization of the surrounding area, St. Mary's complex of church, Sunday school, and white frame parish house surrounding a garden evokes the early days of the village of Manhattanville.
History of Manhattanville"
A dormant geological fault line/ perhaps assisted by an ancient channel of the Hudson River, probably forged the ravine that came to contain the village of Manhattanville. The first non-native settlement began around the mid-seventeenth-century as some Dutch villagers of Nieuw Haerlem made their way west across the island to this outlying valley they called Moertje David's Fly. Probably first used as pasture lots, the meadows sloped between the rim of Joachim Pieter's Hills to the north and the steeper southern cliffs, spliced by a rustic path that branched northwest off the Indian trail to Spuyten Duyvil, past the Bloomingdale road toward the Harlem Cove. It was along these southern hills in 1712 that seven lots among New Harlem's first division of lands were delineated as farm properties.
During the Revolutionary War period, the valley facilitated George Washington's retreat from the British on Long Island towards his headquarters at the Roger Morris House . The general induced the British to advance into the "Hollow Way," as the valley was then known, whereupon his own American troops drove them back, defeating them in the bloody Battle of Harlem Heights in a nearby buckwheat field just to the south on September 16, 1776.
During the War of 1812, the anticipation of British attacks resulted in the construction of a series of fortifications that, in the Manhattanville area, included Block House No. 4, on the present-day southeastern comer of West 123rd Street at Amsterdam Avenue, on the rocky outcrop of what is now Morningside Park's northern end, and the Manhattanville Pass , a military checkpoint that straddled the Bloomingdale Road at present-day Broadway and West 123rd Street and which was commanded by Fort Laight at present-day Broadway and West 124th Street.
In approximately 1806 city surveyor Adolphus Loss surveyed parcels of land and laid out streets. Some local landowners described Manhattanville as a developing village in the New York City's Ninth Ward. Building lots were being advertised for sale "principally to tradesmen" in this enclave that already boasted a "handsome wharf," "convenient Academy," and an "excellent school."" At this time the Corporation of the Common Council was laying out "wide and open" streets from the East River to the Hudson, where 300-ton vessels might lie in safety in the Cove/ Already underway were a two-story frame "house of entertainment,'"" a new marketplace, a daily inexpensive stage line as well as boat service commuting the eight miles between the city and village, and a ferry service to New Jersey.
Most residents of Manhattanville were tenant farmers or factory workers, and the village bustled with the trade and traffic of several small industries that would eventually include the D.F. Tiemann color works, a worsted mill, and the Yuengling Brewery.
Throughout the 1800s, Manhattanville's population increased and changed demographically. In 1823, about fifteen dwellings dotted the valley, which was populated mostly by poor British- and Dutch-Americans and a few blacks." An 1832 cholera epidemic diminished the small population. On October 27, 1834, New York City Mayor Cornelius Lawrence signed an ordinance to fill in a Manhattanville pond between Tenth and Eleventh Avenues .'" And on May 4, 1836, the legislature passed an act to alter the plan of certain city streets in Manhattanville that particularly involved the "old streets named Manhattan St. and Lawrence St."
Foreigners became a substantial presence in the workforce of Manhattanville's new factories and in its social life. The city's immigration boom in the 1840s swelled the rural hamlet as scores escaping the famine in Ireland settled in Manhattanville's sparsely populated northern section, where they raised vegetables and kept yard animals. The Irish Catholic presence resulted in the establishment of such institutions as the Academy and Convent of the Sacred Heart in 1846, Manhattan College , and the Church of the Annunciation, dedicated in 1854. The mostly Catholic Southern Germans, who were laborers, artisans, or active in small trades, lived around Lawrence Street. They established St. Joseph's Church in 1860 and the Yuengling Brewery.
Transportation changed the community's profile, too, when in the 1850s Manhattanville became the first station on the new Hudson River Railroad's northerly route, the Tenth Avenue Railroad was extended there, and the village's streets were partially paved.
Between 1880 and 1891, the number of Manhattanville's dwellings trebled from 200 to 600, most of which were tenements just below Manhattan Street between Amsterdam and Broadway.By 1890, about 80 percent of the residents were living in five-story tenements that had two apartments per floor, and most were either foreign-bom or of foreign-parentage. Irish, English and Scottish formed the majority with 2,465 new arrivals; 1,684 came from Germany; France and Italy's 361 combined arrivals were on a par with 378 from Eastern Europe; 93 were from Scandinavia; 13 and 14 from Greece and the Orient, respectively. About 1,000 African-Americans lived in Manhattanville. The Russians and Poles were mostly Jewish, as were some German and American-bom residents.
Diversions included three poolrooms, three bowling alleys, and a school gymnasium. Of Manhattanville's fifty saloons, Lawrence Street itself, where St. Mary's was located, boasted two that were frequented by Germans and two more by African-Americans. The large Yuengling Brewery was located around the comer.
The newly-installed Interborough Rapid Transit line along Broadway in 1904 encouraged the next building boom in Manhattanville. Squatters were swept from the rocks near Grant's Tomb as Claremont Avenue and Riverside Drive became the fashionably "improved" residential spines of the southeast quadrant of the Manhattan Street-Broadway junction. However, most of the rest of Manhattanville's cross streets north of 129th Street between Amsterdam and Riverside were already being built up with moderately priced apartment houses.'^ In 1908, only 128 people in Manhattanville owned homes; the rest were either renters or lodgers.'"
By 1909, Manhattanville's 1300 African-Americans were living in "clearly defined" segregated sections; the poorest lived in the "Mixed Ale Row" old brick tenement blocks of 130th and 131st Streets; a better-off class lived on the south side of Lawrence Street and West 126th Street ; and those of "excellent reputation" on West 126th Street's two newer blocks between Amsterdam and Claremont.
Distributors, processing plants, garages, gas storage facilities, railway services, and dockside coal barges located in Manhattanville.*" Streets were reconfigured in 1920 when the name of "Manhattan Street" was jettisoned to make the route the oblique continuation of West 125th Street . West of Momingside Avenue, old West 125th Street became LaSalle Street. West 126th Street became Moylan Place, and West 127th Street became Tiemann Place.-' Lawrence Street was renamed West 126th Street in the 1930s.
The Depression and the years of World War II exacted a toll on Manhattanville's tenement buildings, which suffered neglect, disrepair, and eventually demolition. As many returning veterans moved elsewhere, the influx of newly-arriving Puerto Ricans and blacks from the south shifted the area's ethnic demography.
Around 1947, Columbia University and a dozen neighboring institutions founded the non-profit Momingside Heights, Inc. , ostensibly for the civic improvement of the whole Momingside-Manhattanville area, although the focus was south of West 125th Street. Teachers College deployed student volunteers to canvas a third of Manhattanville's 45,000 residents. Although the survey results showed Manhattanville as having a higher rate of accidents, tuberculosis, pneumonia and infant mortality than the whole city, it also revealed a stable community of multi-religious whites, blacks, Latinos, and Asians living harmoniously.
The community became the target of the major 1950s "improvement" campaign of the City Slum Clearance Commission chaired by Robert Moses which forced the relocation of tens of thousands of residents for the creation of the Morningside Gardens co-operative apartments and the lower-income Grant Houses. As many whites moved out of the area, both the Grant and Manhattanville "projects" became virtually black-and Latino-segregated. However, today as a whole, Manhattanville retains a rich characteristic ethnic diversity.
The St. Mary's Legacy in Today's Church
One has only to approach the complex of St. Mary's church, parish house and Sunday school to experience its 175-year history. In an urban world that long ago abandoned wood for stone, the clapboard frame parish house, built as a rectory, greets passersby as an irresistable anomaly.^ An abundance of memorials and gifts exhibited in the interior of the church commemorate its nineteenth-century past.
Three marble tablets from the old church are memorials to the Rev. William Richmond, St. Mary's first rector; to his brother James Cook Richmond, who succeeded him for a time; and to Mr. Thomas T. Groshen, a lay reader who enjoyed the praise of the vestry for his industry in raising funds to erect the original church building. Brass tablets memorialize the church's founder, Jacob Schieffelin, and his son Richard Lawrence Schieffelin, the first clerk of the vestry, and George Richard Schieffelin, vestryman and Diocesan Convention delegate for forty years. Jacob Schieffelin donated the old bell, now installed in the archway of the Choir, purported to be the same one used on the Academy which had stood nearby in Manhattanville's nascent years.
Uninscribed and of unknown origin, the bell is believed to have been brought from the West Indies by a sea captain and now commemorates the memory of all sea-farers. The most enduring gift, however, is perhaps St. Mary's church seal: the ecclesiastical symbol of the Agnus Dei is taken from the centuries-old Schieffelin crest. Jacob Schieffelin's family burial vault, which he had built in 1828, is still located under the porch of the church.
Building Descriptions
Church. St. Mary's Protestant Episcopal Church is of English Gothic design. Constructed of red brick with cast-stone detail, it is oriented with its broad gable end facing West 126th Street. The front is dominated by a large pointed-arch window opening with traceried infill holding leaded glass. The cast-stone sill below the window carries the inscription "1823 St. Mary's Church Manhattanville 1908" in Old English letters. The gable rises to a small open bell tower. Bands of brick laid in a herringbone pattern accent the facade at the springing of the arch and at the base of the bell tower. The cast-stone gable coping terminates in bosses adorned with carved figures. The bell tower with stone-trimmed pointed-arch opening contains a belt which was reinstalled from the first church building. The bell tower finial takes the form of a Celtic cross.
The main entrance to the church is through the open gable-roofed porch at the western side. It has three pointed-arch openings, two of which are approached by stone steps, while the third has a quatrefoil parapet at its base. The porch floor is paved with slate. The openwork beams of the porch roof are visible on the porch ceiling. A quatrefoil motif adorns the gable end beneath the roof. Shallow steps within the porch lead to a pointed-arch opening containing wood double doors with arched panels. A small secondary entrance to the church is located near the eastern end of the main facade.
The eastern and western side elevations of the church are punctuated by broad pointed-arch window openings with tracery containing leaded glass. The window openings are flanked by stepped buttresses with cast-stone coping. Small gable-roofed transepts project from the north end of these two elevations. That on the western elevation contains another entrance. A low wrought-iron fence with Gothic motifs links the buttresses and encloses the basement area ways. The broad slopes of the slate-covered roof rise from the east and west elevations. The roof is accented by two peaked roof dormers on each side.

I also decided to convert a lot of Amazon Prime trucks into ice cream trucks with electric swing arm stop signs like on school buses and the current yellow trapezoid Children Slow Crossing warning blades that word "CHILDREN SLOW CROSSING" to replace all of the older ice cream trucks that still have the old red trapezoid Children Slow Crossing warning blades that word "IF-SAFE STOP THEN-GO". All of the older ice cream trucks that still have the old former red trapezoid children slow crossing warning blade that word "IF-SAFE STOP THEN-GO" will all be torn apart and have their pieces be used as new McDonald's PlayPlace play equipments replacing the dangerous crawl tubes and ball pits since McDonald's also has been making safety improvements to their PlayPlaces by using better play equipments seen athttps://playtime.com/showcases/towers/mcdonalds-playplace-solutions/ replacing the nasty dangerous crawl tubes and ball pits and some of the newer McDonald's PlayPlaces like the epic one in Orlando has arcade games. The Amazon Prime Trucks that are converted into Ice Cream Trucks will go to Mister Softee, Wholesale Clubs such as Costco and BJ's, and other ice cream truck service on safety updates on ice cream trucks. But there will always be brick and mortar stores in real life and Due to that New Jersey was the slowest on phasing out the bad old outdated red trapezoid Children slow crossing warning blades that word IF-SAFE STOP THEN-GO because of some mean teachers at school forcing some ice cream trucks to keep their red trapezoid and made a bad and mean-spirited law of ice cream trucks requiring those bad old outdated red trapezoid children slow crossing warning blades that word IF-SAFE STOP THEN-GO which is extremely confusing to people who are death, color blind, can't read or don't speak English in some of New Jersey, I hereby MOST Amazon warehouses in New Jersey to all be converted into Blue's Clues Handy Dandy Notebook prop replica manufacturing plants and convert most Amazon prime trucks in New Jersey into better and safe updated ice cream trucks with the good awesome current updated yellow trapezoid children slow crossing warning blades that word CHILDREN SLOW CROSSING and School bus stop signs which are octagon shape for the state of New Jersey to also include disabled people in the future too and tear apart the last remaining of the ice cream trucks with the bad old outdated red trapezoid children slow crossing warning blades that word IF-SAFE STOP THEN-GO and recycle all of them into brand new Blue's Clues Handy Dandy notebook prop replicas and reuse the arm the bad old outdated red trapezoid Children Slow crossing warning blades that word IF-SAFE STOP THEN-GO for the brand new stop signs of the new school buses of the future.

This aircraft was delivered to ILFC International Lease Finance Corporation as N151LF in early Dec-95. It was leased to Transaero Airlines (Russia) as EI-CLV the following day. The aircraft was re-registered N651LF in Mar-98. It was wet-leased to Royal Nepal Airlines in Dec-98 and returned to Transaero in Feb-99.
The aircraft was returned to ILFC in maid Mar-99 and leased to Flying Colours Airlines as G-FCLI two days later. Flying Colours merged with Caledonian Airways (the ex British Airways version, not to be confused with the earlier version that became Caledonian // BUA and later British Caledonian) to form 'jmc AIR' at the end of Mar-00.
The aircraft was wet-leased to North American Airlines (USA) for the winter season between Dec-00/Apr-01. 'jmc AIR' was renamed Thomas Cook Airlines UK in Apr-03. Short-tern, between Mar/Apr-13 it was leased to Thomas Cook Airlines Scandinavia.
In Dec-14 the aircraft was wet-leased to WestJet Canada and operated on behalf of Thomas Cook Canada. It returned to Thomas Cook Airlines UK in Apr-15. The aircraft was returned to AerCap in Jan-16 and stored at St. Athan, Wales, UK.
It was sold to DHL Air Ltd at the end of Mar-16 and ferried to Greensboro, NC, USA for further storage. The aircraft was re-registered G-DHKH in Jun-16 before being converted to freighter configuration with a main deck cargo door in Jan-17.
It entered service with DHL at East Midlands, UK, in May-17. The aircraft was transferred to DHL Air - Austria & re-registered OE-LNC in Jan-22. Current, updated 23-Jan-24..
Note: JMC Airlines, known as ‘jmc AIR', was formed by the merger of Flying Colours Airlines and the British Airways version of Caledonian Airways in Mar-2000. The name was derived from the initials of Thomas Cook’s son, John Mason Cook. Who knew! Well, no one really! It was an Ad Man’s dream and everyone else’s nightmare. Even those of us ‘in the business’ had no clue. The travelling public had no idea either and booked their holidays with names they recognised. ‘jmc’ lasted three years before they were renamed Thomas Cook Airlines in Mar-2003.
Replaced a pole with glass kimbles.. There was a Ton of Xcel and Permier bucket trucks down this road! and Xcel seems to be using these newer kind of polymer suspension insulators, It turns out that the newer version has more skirts than the ones w/ 4 skirts on it also the skirts on the end is much larger than the ones in the middle
Advie War Memorial
The memorial was damaged beyond repair in 2006 and replaced in 2008.
The memorial has been moved to NJ 12506 34385, the position shown above is right on the main road so perhaps it was hit by a vehicle that would fit with the damage on the original which is in the cemetery (NJ 1418 3528).
There appears to be a church hall across the road from memorial.

OUR MOST HUMBLE
AND HEARTY THANKS
