A pair of crows came to check out the spagetti that we had put out for them. There were two piles and I thought they would share.
One of the crows flew to the first big pile, picked it up but then dropped it.
The scroll on top of my old 3/4 size violin. I played this thing for years. This was taken in complete darkness testing out my new SB-600 flash.
April 22, 2010 Ð Scroll of Honor Dedication. Nearly 500 Clemson University graduates who died in service to their country were remembered Thursday during dedication ceremonies for the Scroll of Honor. Clemson President James Barker and selected dignitaries unveiled two purple-shrouded tiger statues as a crowd of up 1,000 applauded and stood at attention. To date 470 names are etched into the stone scroll. There are 27 names from WWI; one from the Nicaraguan campaign; 378 from WWII; 17 more from Korea; one, that of a pilot, from the Cuban missile crisis; 25 from the Vietnam War: and 19 from the Cold War era and the wars on terror. Two additional names were added just as the ceremony took place. The Clemson Corps, organized in 1999, is responsible for maintaining the Scroll of Honor records. The corps is associated with the Clemson Alumni Association and helps raise funds for the preservation of ClemsonÕs military history and the creation of scholarships for ROTC cadets..

For some reason there's a cat that acts as a caption balloon on the left...
I haven't been able to fine the titles yet but the entire series of 99 images is called [Crepe Pictures], which probably isn't the real name for each.

Per la prima volta in 34 anni i Negativland propongono sul palco versioni audiovisive radicalmente nuove di molti pezzi preferiti dei loro fan, mai sentite prima dal vivo.
Per la prima volta in otto anni, i Negativland suonano in Europa.
Sempre per la prima volta, arrivano a Trieste.
Passati alla storia per una curiosa operazione di arte concettuale che ha visto coinvolti le multinazionali del disco, etichette indipendenti e avvocati, gli americani Negativland hanno scoccato il loro dardo di fuoco contro il colosso del copyright in una maniera che non ha precedenti prima di loro. Tutto ha inizio col rinvenimento di un nastro audio, proveniente da una trasmissione televisiva, in cui il conduttore Casey Kasem si lascia andare a commenti molto coloriti sugli U2. Parte di quel contenuto lo utilizzano per un ep nel quale decostruiscono il brano “I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For” di Bono & Co. accostando la versione originale del pezzo a suoni di varia natura. La copertina riporta in grande la scritta U2 e in piccolo il nome del gruppo. Parte l'azione legale dagli uffici della Island, imbufalita dall'affronto. La causa, neanche dirlo, viene vinta. La SST, etichetta responsabile della pubblicazione dell'ep, che non perde occasione di ribadire la sua lotta contro le multinazionali del disco (ricordate la t-shirt della label con la scritta Corporate Rock Still Suck?) si gioca la carta folle del recupero costi legali e della stampa del lavoro dalle casse dei Negativland. Questi, soddisfatti di aver gabbato entrambi con una mossa sola, pubblicano da lì a breve un libro che riepiloga l'intera vicenda con tanto di documenti in forma anastatica (“The Letter U and the numeral 2”, Seeland 1992, libro + cd). Da allora, con fasi alterne, il collettivo non ha mai interrotto la sua avventura tra pratiche taglia&cuci e mistificazione, gusto dell'assurdo e critica all'industria culturale che agisce per lo più in base a criteri economici.
Se, come sosteneva Burroughs, nella procedura del cut up il vero volto delle cose filtra attraverso le crepe, allora i Negativland sono riusciti nel loro intento, ovverosia mostrarci i tanti meccanismi invisibili che regolano non solo l'arte ma tutte le nostre esistenze. More than music.

ENGLISH VERSION
For the first time in 34 years Negativeland will offer radically new audiovisive versions of their pieces, most loved by fans, that have never been played live before.
For the first time in 8 years, Negativeland will play a gig in Europe.
For the first time EVER we bring them to Trieste.
Went down in history for their peculiar work of conceptual art which involved music industry corporations, independent labels and lawyers, Negativland from San Francisco have popped their fiery darts against the copyright giant in a way nobody ever dared before. It all started with a television broadcast audio tape, on which the host, Casey Kasem, indulges in some very colorful comments regarding U2. Part of that content was used for Negativeland’s EP with the deconstruction of “I Still Haven’t Found What I’m Looking For” by Bono & Co., mixing it with sounds of various nature. The album cover has “U2” written in huge pink letters, while the name of the band itself is only noticeable after a closer look.
U2’s label Island Records quickly sued Negativland, who had to withdraw and destroy the record. SST, who published the EP, famous for never missing a chance of openly restating their fight against the multinational record companies (remember the t-shirt “Corporate Rock Still Suck”?) then tries to recover costs of the legal battle from Negativland. The latter, pleased to have duped both with a single move, publish their book/CD, Fair Use: The Story of the Letter U and the Numeral 2 , Seeland 1992 which summarizes the whole thing, accompanied by plenty of documents as a proof.
Ever since, with ups and downs, the collective never ceases its adventure, using cut&sew and mystification, a taste for the absurd and criticism towards the cultural industry, that acts mainly on the basis of economic criteria.
If, as argued by Burroughs, during the cut up the true face of things comes out through the cracks, then Negativland have succeeded in their mission of showing us the many invisible mechanisms, that rule not only the art, but our existence itself. More than music.

To celebrate the presence of these legends of avant-garde and artistic provocation we asked our friends from Hybrida to open and close the evening with their visual projections and DJ set. The association from Tarcento, who has been spreading the international underground music culture in the region for years now, will be the perfect match for the memorable evening.

The right section of the scroll is the rural area of the city. There are crop fields and unhurried rural folk - predominately farmers, goatherds, and pig-herders - in bucolic scenery.

Stern,Temple is known for its strong tradition of clergy and lay leadership, committed membership, diverse and spirited worship services, focus on lifelong Jewish learning and commitment to social justice.
While scrolling with Street View down C Street Northeast in Auburn I saw this former Transport International Pool trailer. That was a pleasant surprise. I was exploring a potential route for riding my recumbent trike.
***************************************************************************
"T.I.P." stands for "Transport International Pool,” a company that rented highway trailers to trucking companies. I worked for T.I.P. many moons ago, when it was part of Gelco Corporation.
When I went to work for T.I.P., I had never heard of it previously. Nor had I heard of the city in which it had its headquarters (Bala Cynwyd, Pennsylvania). All I knew about the trucking industry was that “trucks transport stuff.” My employment there was a great learning experience. Terms like “kingpin,” “landing gear,” “fifth wheel,” and “hub odometer" became meaningful, as did the names of companies with which T.I.P. did business.
The aspect of the job that I enjoyed most was parking trailers in our storage yard, which was great fun once I got the hang of turning the truck’s wheels in the opposite direction of where I wanted the trailer to go.
T.I.P.'s logo is almost identical to the "TIP" icon appearing in federal income tax booklets.
Since I left the company it has undergone expansion, merged with other businesses, been split apart, been sold a few times, and been renamed as well. Searching for "Transport International Pool" in Wikipedia in 2019 goes to a page about TIP Trailer Services, but that firm operates only in Canada and Europe. Whether there is still a USA company that is the result of all that change is difficult to determine.

Detail of a north aisle window depicting three of the Apostles with accompanying scroll, suggesting the original full set of twelve would have represented an Apostles' Creed (elements of nine figures survive). Three of these early 16th century windows survive out of a probable set of four, but are so heavily restored that at first glass they appear mostly Victorian. All the heads are restorations (aside from parts of two) and much else besides (including the quarries above and below and one of the figures is entirely new) but around 30% or more of the original glass remains in most cases so a fair impression of the original scheme can be gained.
St Michael's church stands on high ground overlooking the village of Hamstall Ridware, approaching entails a long walk from the road across a field, the spire beckoning us onward and upward. Arriving at the churchyard gate it becomes clear that the church wasn't the only grand ancient building here as a jagged stump of brickwork is glimpsed that represents the last remains of the former Hamstall Hall becomes visible immediately behind the churchyard. The church itself appears to be mainly 14th century with some modification to windows, tower and spire in the following century. The body of the building is unusual in showing no structural difference between nave and chancel, the aisles continue eastwards to embrace both as a single unit and the clerestorey above is unbroken.
Within it becomes clear that this is a church with much of antiquarian interest. The central aisle is a long unbroken space flanked by a series of low regimented arches revealing the more mysterious and intimate spaces of the aisles on either side. Much of the woodwork is old, from the roof to some of the furnishings too, but most unusually the altar reredos incorporates two late medieval painted panels (not in situ, probably originally part of the lost rood screen). Neither are of high quality but are of great interest nonetheless. On the south side of the chancel is a canopied late medieval monument with a tomb chest adorned with painted shields. The north aisle contains a series of three windows of early 16th century date depicting the Apostles; they are so heavily restored that only around 30%-40% of the glass is original, the rest being 19th century reconstruction (including all the heads aside from parts of two of them) but enough remains to give a sense of their effect.
Hamstall Ridware church was one of my favourites of the day and a high point to finish on in every sense. I did however find it 'locked' on arrival and was bitterly disappointed, however after staying a while in the churchyard I noticed someone approaching so decided not to leave until after they arrived in case they had the key. The gentleman was indeed coming to the church but assured me it should be open and just requires a bit of a knack to get the door open, which he then managed to do (I'd tried a few times but was afraid to force it any harder) and as he was preparing music for the Sunday service he kindly let me have time to explore and get my photos before locking up. I believe the church may be open more regularly in summer months, but that door may require some perseverance!
