Basildon Park
Basildon Park estate was bought by Francis Sykes in 1771.
Sykes had made his fortune in the East India Company and required a home befitting his status. He demolished the original house and employed architect John Carr to build the mansion that survives to this day.
The Sykes family owned the house until 1838.
The Morrison family owned Basildon Park from 1838 to 1928. It was originally bought by Liberal MP James Morrison who passed it to his eldest son Charles. On his death it was inherited by his sister Ellen who died just seven months later, leaving it to her nephew Major James Archibald Morrison.
During the Second World War, the estate was requisitioned. It served several purposes including being used by the 101st Airborne Division of the American Army for D-Day training, and later as a prisoner-of-war camp for German and Italian soldiers. This was all vital to the war effort but inevitably resulted in severe damage to the house and estate.
In 1952 Lord and Lady Iliffe bought the semi-ruined Basildon Park.
The couple set about restoring the house sensitively to its former glory, with the addition of modern-day comforts such as central heating, a contemporary kitchen and bathrooms.
They restored the elegant interior and scoured the country searching for 18th-century architectural fixtures and fittings to fill their comfortable new home.
The fine paintings, fabrics and furniture they bought can still be enjoyed by visitors today.
The house and gardens have been featured in several Film and TV drama productions including Pride and Prejudice, Bridgerton, Downtown Abbey, The Gentlemen and The Crown.
Lord and Lady Iliffe gifted the house, together with 400 acres of parkland, to the National Trust in 1978.

War Years Remembered is not a state-run museum. Due to the various lock-downs over the past year the museum has suffered greatly, with almost all of our annual income lost. All through lock-down the team at War Years Remembered has continued to support anyone requiring research from documentary makers and authors to families and veterans, all for free.
Our long-term goal for War Years Remembered is to find a permanent home and seek accredited museum status. Our dream is to become a major attraction that will provide an enjoyable, interesting and educational experience to all who visit.
We are fighting to survive the Covid-19 pandemic but we need your help. To survive and remain in our present location, we currently need to raise £50,000. With this money we can continue our vital work in remembering our veterans and the collection will be preserved for the education of future generations.
We were inspired by our late veteran 'Captain Tom' and our younger volunteers came up with the idea to walk 'in the footsteps of heroes'. So, over the coming weeks we will be using treadmills to walk 602 miles, the distance from our museum in Ballyclare to the beaches of Normandy, a journey undertaken by so many young men and women who fought in the Second World War. We will be posting regular updates on our progress and we hope you enjoy watching our journey.
Please give what you can, please help save War Years Remembered.
Tactical shooting requires agile and adaptive thinkers able to handle the challenges of full spectrum operations in an era of persistent conflict. To meet this requirement, TAPS delivers a comprehensive, systematic, progressive Train-the-Trainer shooting program focused on fundamental mastery and built for Law Enforcement officers, military personal, and qualified civilians. Designed for leaders and trainers, the TAPS course also applies to the patrol-level officer, basic level Soldiers, and civilian self & home defense minded shooters. The approach to instruction is through coaching and mentorship and both demonstrates and transfers a training method that is safe, effective, combat relevant, and encourages a continuous thought process that demands accountability. Training is conducted on the range and focuses on advanced refinement of the basic fundamentals of marksmanship as applied to the primary and secondary weapons systems. Utilizing a building block learning model, TAPS combines the pressures and dynamics of competitive shooting and tactical application. While course of instruction is on the firing range, the TAPS training approach also translates into training venues outside the range.
Course Outline:
The 2-day course offering provides the following training and instruction:
- Lecture on proper weapons handling and safety
- Refresh the fundamentals and grouping exercises
- Conduct a diagnostic course of fire
- Conduct a discussion on the importance of performing a focal shift during training and avoiding mundane drills that do not encourage a thought process
- Other topics covered and practiced are; grouping exercises with both primary and secondary weapon systems, target discrimination, use of barricades, movement, close quarter battle techniques, immediate action drills, ballistics 101, transitions, magazine changes
- Escalation of training and intensity will vary depending on number of students and their skill level though the core of the course will always remain the same
- This course is marksmanship intensive.

Myles getting his new leash and collar plus a bed, toys and treats. It cost $250 to adopt him, but we will get $100 back after attending training. He has all his shots and has been dewormed and we get a free vet visit to make sure there were no ill effects from his stay here.
The sword in the back cruciform hilt - that is the crossguard, grip, and pommel - origin is English while the blade is German, 1600-1625 adorned with gold and silver. Swords can often require the efforts of multiple people concentrating on the different parts. Centers of trade and commerce often export and import parts as required. It's lovely as far as precious metal on swords go but that's not why I'm here.
The rest of the swords are basket-hilted broadswords all dating 1600-1700s. The left-most basket-hilted sword is Scottish while the others are English.
The basket-hilted broadsword was used in Rob Roy, a rare movie where there were good attempts made in portraying realistic fencing. Fast forward over twenty years later and someone from the local HEMA club brought a functional reproduction on sale from Kult of Athena.
It was not a lively blade and in fact it was a bit of a chopper. The tip tend to bend if struck and the screw nut on the bottom of the hilt work loose after a session using it. But the weight was not bad at all and as a chopper once it starts moving mass materializes and it keeps moving effortlessly as if it had a mind of it's own.
I never cared for one-handed swords other than arming swords used in conjunction with a buckler but that experience changed my mind in a hurry. What's just as surprising was that the Rawlings basket-hilted nylons languishing in the armory were as close to the handling characteristics and feel of the steel version as much as nylon is capable of doing.
After that my guiding philosophy is if I can pick it up - it doesn't matter if I'm sure it isn't my thing - pick it up and give it a try.

Some more advanced techniques by, well, I'm not sure if it's THE Duncan MacLeod but the techniques make sense.

The close quarter grappling depicted here should not be unfamiliar to longsword Fiorists. I managed to execute a successful grapple once in sparring with both participants not knowing what the hell they were doing hundreds of years removed from their primary art while wielding a one-handed sword with excellent hand protection.
From the August 2016 return trip to Siem Reap and the Angkor complex:
I love the Angkor complex, Siem Reap, and the Cambodian people so much that I returned again for about a week to photograph as much of the “non-major” sites as I could. Some of them are slightly far from Angkor Wat (by that, I mean to say more than 10 kilometers away), and usually require a little more money to get to. Also, some of the sites (Beng Mealea, Phnom Kulen) are not included in the Angkor ticket price and have an additional admission fee.
I don’t know if there’s a set number of how many sites belong in the Angkor complex, though I’m sure it would vary. (Do you only count the major sites like Angkor Wat, Bayon, Ta Prohm? Do you add the sites that aren’t included in the standard “Angkor Pass,” but are clearly of the same era? Do you include sites that aren’t even named (as are one of the sites in this series)? All in all, I’ll put a very rough number at…50 sites in the Siem Reap area, and that includes the sites that are about 100 km away. Of those, I would say I’ve been to all but 5-10 now. All are included here with the exception, obviously, of the sites that I didn’t visit. (Off the top of my head, I can say they include Koh Ker & that respective group, which is about 120 km ENE of Siem Reap; Phnom Krom, one of the three “mountains” with temples; Ta Prohm Kel; and Mangalartha.)
In practical terms, I’m afraid that with the volume of shooting (about 1,500 frames in the past 7 days), photos will start to look redundant to those who don’t have the same interest in ancient/historical architecture or Angkor as I do. That being said, there are a few things besides temples here. The Old Market area (now Night Market/Pub Street) is represented – a little – and Phnom Kulen has a pretty nice waterfall which is also in this series. Also, I tried to catch a few people in here, though didn’t get as many as I would’ve liked.
I had my friend Mao (tuktuk driver) take me around for 5 of these 7 days this time around. As I mentioned last time, he may cost a little more than what you can arrange through a hotel/guesthouse, but he’s well worth the money (and, in the grand scheme of things, not too expensive; I paid less than $200 for the five days, two of which were “long” trips). He loves his country and heritage, he knows what he’s showing you, he’s flexible, he gives you enough ice water to keep you hydrated, and he’s just a good guy. (He even bought me a birthday cake for cryin’ out loud…) Anyway, I highly recommend Mao. You can find him here: www.facebook.com/mao.khvan (or on Trip Advisor: www.tripadvisor.com/Attraction_Review-g297390-d10726821-R... )
Now that shameless plugs and other assorted rhetoric are out of the way, it’s time to get on to the temples, ruins, and other miscellany.
Banteay Srei (Citadel of the Women, or Citadel of Beauty) is, from what I can tell, the most attractive temple in terms of intricate details. The details are so intricate, in fact, that when this temple was “discovered” in the 20th century, it was thought to be from the 13th or 14th centuries (late Angkor period). During restoration, it was discovered that this temple was actually begun in 967 AD…and finished not too long afterwards.
A few things to note about this temple are that it was not commissioned by a king, but by a brahman. (I believe it’s the only temple in the Angkor complex that wasn’t commissioned by a royal.) Also, the name Banteay Srei is not its original name, though I don’t know who bestowed that name or when. The original name is Tribhuvanamahesvara, which means “Great Lord of the Threefold World.” (This is taken from an inscription on its central linga.)
Apart from that, things to note are its size (rather small) and its detail. The current saying is that, “This is a temple that must have been built by women as it is so beautiful.” It is carved from a slightly pinkish stone and the stone carvings are arguably among the best in the world.
Some of the carvings of note show delicate women with lotus flowers in hand in traditional skirts and recreations of scenes from the Ramayana above the main doors of the libraries. In addition, there are mythical guardians standing watch over the temple, though these are recreations. (The originals are in the National Museum in Phnom Penh.)
Banteay Srei is not a temple that is included in either the standard mini circuit or grand circuit tours of Angkor as it’s a bit farther afield. It’s 21 km northeast of Bayon (or about 35-40 km northeast of Siem Reap). Because of that, it’s necessary to arrange for a tuktuk driver to take you here, and it’s best if you do this in conjunction with other “far” sites in the area – Phnom Kulen, Phnom Bok, Banteay Samre, Kbal Spean, or even Beng Mealea. In my case, the second day consisted of sunrise at Sra Srang, Banteay Srei, Phnom Kulen, and Banteay Samre.
This is a temple that, like almost every one at Angkor, faces east. There are east and west entrances – with the eastern entrance along a causeway – that are both easily accessible. Mao & I trampled through the woods (a “shortcut,” and it really was only about a 2 minute walk from where we parked) to the back of the temple. The sun finally came out after having been at Banteay Srei for about half an hour, so some of the shots should have some nice lighting.
After visiting in May, this temple is definitely one of the ones I most wanted to see upon returning and I wasn’t disappointed. I would highly recommend it to anyone who visits Angkor.
As always, I hope you enjoy this set. I appreciate you taking time to look. If you have any questions, please feel free to send me a message or leave it via comment.
Today I am sharing onion chutney recipe / Easy onion chutney recipe which is perfect pair for idli / ragi dosa / ven pongal and even kichadi. The main ingredient required for this chutney is onions and it doesn't require tomato or coconut. This chutney won't spoil easily as we don't use coconut, so it's always an apt combo for travel too.

Sampson has been our buddy since 2004. In the winter of 2008, he suffered a severe perineal hernia that required a $2000 surgery to repair it. At the time of the surgery, we were told that due to the severity of the hernia that it was likely to reoccur. As predicted, it has reoccurred and he desperately needs more surgery before 2012. Other than the hernia, he is a happy, healthy and active dog who should live to his mid to late teens. Therefore, I cannot in good conscience end his life prematurely. I have also contacted a Corgi rescue in hopes that he could be adopted to a family that is more financially able to care for him. However, since my husband and I can't have children, giving him up for adoption because of health issues seems as ridiculous to us as giving up our 9 year old child for adoption because we can't keep up with the medical expenses. We work in the service industry, living paycheck to paycheck and our credit is not good enough to get a care credit card that would allow us to make payments. To help us pay for Sampson's surgery, we have set up a ChipIn donation site to raise funds for Sampson's surgery. So please consider donating whatever small amount you can to help keep Sampson with the family that loves him. If you can't make a donation, please pass this info along to friends who may be able to help. Sampson, his Corgi buddies Shiloh & Rusty and his human family thank you! Click on the link below to go to Sampson's ChipIn.com page to make your donation. THANK YOU!!

11.11.11 Update: A big thank you to all you wonderful flickr friends! We've received several generous donations from flickr members pushing us over the 13% mark of our goal. Since I've been promoting Sampson's photos, I've found several of them used on websites & blogs. I hold a creative commons license because I'm not a professional photographer and if people like my photos and want to use them, I don't want them to be limited by an exorbitant fee. However, I have a pup in trouble and he needs your help, so, if you like my Corgi photos or save them as favorites, please donate $1; if you use any of my Corgi or animal photos on your website or blog, please donate $5 to: corgisampson.chipin.com/sampson-the-corgis-hernia-surgery...
It's a small price to pay compared to a pro's fee, and it helps a much loved dog in need. Again, we appreciate all efforts & donations, and Sampson & the Corgi Clan thank you!

Greater Roadrunner (Geococcyx californianus)
Roadrunners require open ground to capture their prey and as a result inhabit grassy, dry, open environments, being able to sprint at speeds up to 15 mph. While they do eat fruit, seeds, insects, rodents and small birds, but they prefer lizards and snakes.
They fly only when necessary, but will glide to reach a fence post or rock, where they can often be seen perched, scanning for food or sunbathing.
In New Mexico Greater Roadrunners can be found at New Mexico bird photography locations with dry, open, brushy grass or desert habitats and throughout the states of Texas and most of New Mexico and Arizona in the Southwest. Southwest Bird Photography Locations ~ Tail Feather Photos

Meeting the transition challenges in the EBRD region will require mobilisation of large scale capital from multiple sources: development finance institutions are part of the picture, but the private sector – institutional investors and asset managers, commercial banks and family offices, and philanthropic capital – has a big role to play.
Impact investing – investing with the intention to generate a measurable social and environmental impact alongside a market-based financial return – is a growing field, with more actors and more capital deployed each year. It is one of the many ways development actors and private capital together can help countries address their Sustainable Development Goals and Paris climate commitments.
This panel explored ways in which international financial institutions like EBRD can partner with private capital in innovative ways to invest for and with impact. It will set the stage to explore winning strategies by companies, investors and development finance institutions to further the transition to well-functioning, sustainable market economies.

See You All Again Next Year Where We Will do it All Over Again.
Authorities generally agree that human milk is the ideal food for infants. The milk used for bottle feeding infants requires extensive modification to make it as digestible and nutritious as mother's milk. Your doctor has prescribed S-M-A s-26 for your baby because it is the closest approximation to healthy mother's milk.
The fat of cow's milk is replaced in S-M-A s-26 by a carefully chosen mixture of oils high in unsaturated fatty acids. This mixture of oils is easy for the baby to digest and permits better food utilization. It provides a concentrated source of energy and protects the baby against skin rashes and eczema. It also reduces the possibility of gastrointestinal upsets and the sour smell upon spitting up.
The carbohydrates of S-M-A s-26 is all lactose, the same sugar found in human milk. Babies fed S-M-A s-26, as those fed breast milk, develop firm tissues and regular bowel function.
The quantity and quality of the proteins in S-M-A s-26 are adjusted so that they provide all of the known essential amino acids necessary for your baby's normal growth and development. During manufacture of S-M-A s-26, the casein portion of the protein is partially replaced by lactalbumin and heat-treated so that it forms a fine, flocculent, almost liquid curd which is easily digested in the baby's stomach.
The minerals in S-M-A s-26 help form healthy teeth and bones and help protect your baby against dehyration in situations of stress, such as hot weather, fever, vomiting, or diarrhea.
The proper quantity of all known essential vitamins are added to S-M-A s-26. This means that your baby is receiving regularly, with each feeding, sufficient vitamins for normal body functions.
These modifications provide your baby with the prepared formula which most closely resembles mother's milk in composition, digestibility and nutritional value.
