Patroness of Mothers
Feast Day - April 9
According to the Fourth Gospel (l9:25) there stood at the cross of Christ the following: "His Mother, and His mother's sister, Mary of Cleopas, and Mary Magdalene."
It seems here that the persons are divided by the conjunctionb "and", and that it is best to take it that only three people arementioned, Mary of Cleopas and the sister of the Blessed Mother being the same person. Through a fine sense of modesty, St. John did not state that his own mother (Salome) was there. Neither do the other three Evangelists record that the Virgin Mother was present. However, in place of Mary of Cleopas, St. Matthew 27:56 mentions "Mary the Mother of James and Joseph," and St. Mark l5:40 speaks of "Mary the Mother of James the Less." In regard to the women who took notice of the burial of Christ and who on Easter morning went to the tomb, St. Matthew refers to "the other Mary," while St. Mark speaks of her at first as "Mary the Mother of Joseph" (St. Mark l5:47), and then as Mary the Mother of James (St. Mark l6:l). She is called by St. Luke, "Mary of James" (24:l0), perhaps for the reason that Joseph died within a few years, and his brother James assumed such prominence as the Bishop of Jerusalem that the mother became known as "Mary of James."
St. James, the brother of Christ and the Bishop of Jerusalem and author of the Epistle of St. James, lis identical with the second James in the lists of the apostles whose father is given as Alpheus and whose mother was Mary of Cleophas, is commonly accepted by Catholic scholars today and is the tradition handed down by such prominent early writers as Clement of Alexandria and St. Jerome. It is also generally agreed that Jude, one of the four "brethren" of Christ, is the same as the author of the Catholic epistle and the apostle known as "Thaddeus." For in the beginning of the Epistle he calls himself "the brother of James," and St. Luke in his list of the apostles styles him "James' Jude," most probably as a way of distinguishing him. The Gospel text (St. John 14:22) tells us that Jude the Apostle showed his impatience and disappointment because our Lord was not manifesting Himself to the world. This is in harmony with the attitude of the brethren of Christ. Now in regard to the other brother of Christ, Simon is generally identified with the apostles, the Cananean, the Armaic equivalent of the "Zealot/" The obvious meaning of this title might indicate that he once belonged to the body of the extreme nationalists known as "Zealots," but the general meaning of the word is to be understood here. The grouping together of the three names, James, Jude, and Simon is the lists of the apostles may be an indication of their relationship.
In trying to obtain more information about the four "brethren of Christ," iis may be worth while to notice that both St. MNatthew and St. Mark give the names of the four together, James, Joseph, Jude and Simon; and het later St. Matthew mentions Mary as the mother of only two, James and Joseph, whereas St. Mark writes of her separately, one time as the Mother of James, and another time as the Mother of Jospeh. It may be also noticed that in the lists of the apostles James the Less has a father, Alpheus, who is not mentioned as father either of Jude or of Simon.
Accordingly there does seem to be some basis for dividing the four brethren into two groups. Further support for such a demarcation may be found in Hegesippus, who informs us that St. James the Bishop of Jerusalem, was of the tribe of Levi, and he was succeeded by "another cousin" of our Lord, Simon, whose mother was Mary and whose father was Cleophas, the brother of St. Joseph. As it is certain that the foster father of Christ was of the tribe of Juda, the inference can be legitimately made that Alpheus, the Father of St. James, was different person from Cleophas, the Father of Siimon, and hence that, though all four "brothers" of Christ had the same mother, Mary, they had different fathers. This leads to the explanation suggested by Father Prat, namely: the Virgin Mother had a stepsister, whose name was also Mary, married at first Alpheus. Besides daughters they had two sons, James and Joseph. When Alpheus died, Cleophas, St. Joseph*s brother, married the widow and desides daughters they had two sons, Jude and Siimon. The latter who in the eyes oif the people would be double first cousins of our Lord. After the death of St. Joseph and Alpheus, all these cousins lived in the same house with Christ and His Blessed Mother. Because of this fact of their living together and of their close relationship , they were readily and naturally styled Jesus' brethren.

Arrived early @ Fermyn wood this morning, but conditions were not good to see the Purple emperor at their best. Not as many about as reported the w/e & those that were about were not showing the purple very well. Camera has to be exactly @ right angle to the sun & the butterfly. I show 2 photos of the same butterfly, one with a bit of purple showing & the other moved slightly(see the gravel stones for comparison) showing no purple.

For several years the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service in the Pacific Islands has collected boluses from Midway Atoll National Wildlife Refuge for education and outreach purposes through a variety of projects. These boluses have been shipped to educators locally and nationally within the United States, bringing to light issues surrounding marine debris, seabirds, protected spaces, and conservation. More recently schools have also participated in a Citizen Science project, reporting back to us their findings from dissecting their boluses. Not only does this provide glimpses into each albatross’ diet, but it helps inform management of the colonies and their habitat.
Here is a collection of photos from different boluses collected on Midway, as well as individual items that are commonly found in boluses.
Thank you for your interest and go to our website to participate in the program and learn about Midway Atoll in Papahānaumokuākea Marine National Monument!
Breakfast with the Chief
By Dave Palmer
LOS ANGELES — Society of American Military Engineers posts from Los Angeles, Orange County and the Inland Empire held their 26th annual joint breakfast meeting Jan. 13. The keynote speaker currently serves as the Acting Chief of Engineers and Commanding General for the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers.
Los Angeles District Commander Col. Mark Toy introduced Maj. Gen. Merdith W.B. (Bo) Temple to more than 100 SAME members. He mentioned that, among the general's many accomplishments, he holds the distinction of being the only individual to ever hold all four general officer billets at USACE headquarters. Once a permanent Chief is named, Temple will retire with 37 years-of-service.
For his remarks, Temple took the opportunity to discuss where the Corps and the Army find themselves today and where they are headed.
“As fiscal year 2011 came to an end, the Corps was wrapping up an unprecedented period of construction and project execution,” said Temple. “For example, over the past five years, we provided $12 billion in BRAC-related (Base Realignment and Closure) construction; $7 billion of American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (stimulus) work in both military and civil works programs; and about $14 billion of Gulf Coast recovery work!”
And, 2011 brought roughly three times the disaster declarations of a normal year.
“USACE responded to devastating tornadoes and severe spring storms, as well as hurricanes and tropical storms, under the National Response Framework in support of FEMA,” said Temple. “We are working now with the $1.7 billion appropriated supplement to the Corps’ budget in disaster relief to make emergency repairs before the 2012 flood season is upon us.”
For the future the general discussed the continuing fiscal challenges the Nation faces.
“We are operating in a more complex, less certain, resource-constrained environment which requires a more focused, systems-based approach and more collaboration to develop and deliver safe, quality engineering solutions on time, at or below cost, to our customers, stakeholders and partners.”
Even with fiscal challenges, locally, the District will benefit from Obama administration programs like America’s Great Outdoors and the new Urban Waters Federal Partnership which selected the Los Angeles River Watershed as one of seven pilot locations to enhance existing work like the Los Angeles River Revitalization Master Plan.
“The Los Angeles District is a strong supporter of revitalizing the river, with several on-going studies and potential projects that aim to restore riverside habitat, increase public access to the river and promote recreational opportunities,” said Temple.
Military construction projects also hold great promise for the region.
“South Pacific Division’s FY 12 budget is about $1.2 billion, which is about $200 million more than last year, with two significant MILCON projects at Fort Irwin accounting for most of that increase," said Temple. "Another highlight is that Los Angeles District estimates that they will award more than $200 million to small businesses in FY 12.”
For some strange reason, I'm reminded of the song "Smile a Little Smile for Me" by The Flying Machine.
Joey Harrison has a photo of this place prior to the repaint. I'm not sure what's spookier, this smile, or the old choppers they used to have here.
Members of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Savannah District judged more than 100 science projects created by local middle and high school students at the Georgia Tech Regional Science and Engineering Fair, Feb. 15, 2012, at the Coastal Georgia Center in downtown Savannah. The team selected two high school students and two middle school students to receive special awards from the Corps of Engineers and the Society of American Military Engineers (SAME). Col. Jeff Hall, Corps’ Savannah District Commander and SAME Savannah Post President, presented the awards to the winning students during an awards ceremony on Feb. 16. Photo by George Jumara.

In the same year she did a collab with the architect William McDonogh at the Triangle Artist's Workshop creating a mural 9 x 37 feet for his building of the same title. This was done while working up ideas for how the mural would be approached.
Jerome of Stridonium or Blessed Jerome.[2] He is presumed by some to have been an Illyrian.
In art, he is often represented as one of the four Latin doctors of the Church along with Augustine of Hippo, Ambrose, and Pope Gregory I. As a prominent member of the Roman clergy, he has often been portrayed anachronistically[3] in the garb of a cardinal. Even when he is depicted as a half-clad anchorite, with cross, skull and Bible for the only furniture of his cell, the red hat or some other indication of his rank as cardinal is as a rule introduced somewhere in the picture. He is also often depicted with a lion, due to a medieval story in which he removed a thorn from a lion's paw,[4] and less often with an owl, the symbol of wisdom and scholarship.[5] Writing materials and the trumpet of final judgment are also part of his iconography.[5] He is commemorated on 30 September with a memorial.
Saint Jerome
Concerning St Jerome, though, it is interesting that despite such an apparent extravagance, he had little patience for those who valued externally fancy or luxurious books. Williams quotes the preface to his translation of Job:
Let those who want them have antique volumes, or books written on purple parchment in gold and silver ink, or in what the vulgar call 'inch-high' [uncialibus] letters, so that they are burdens rather than books, so long as they let me and mine have our wretched pamphlets and our copies not so much beautified, as corrected. (qtd. in Williams, p. 181)
