Ypache (Apache) is fed up with the run of wintry weather we’ve been having...Six inches of snow, lying for a week, torrential rain for a few days, now, Storm Erik (!) with gale force winds and more torrential rain, is raging around the house and hills.

 

Consequently, ‘Not-going-out’ has become the collective cat cry, recently. When they do venture out, it’s a very brief sortie to one of the outbuildings or to sit in the rafters of one of the garages. The house has become an indoor playground/feline gym/wrestling ring/chase park/hotel.

 

Here, she is just turning over on her bean bag, again, to lie down and get another comfortable position...

  

Come on, SPRING!

forgotton street - sign of the times

Good times, and not so long ago, but we live another reality already spent 7 months in a new world. The future we are not sure what it will be like, so take care, appreciate your loved ones and soon everything will come back somehow better. I wish you a great week.

No matter your political POV, all can agree these are rocky times. Not something one would be apt to smile about. However, like rocky times before us, we have a strong foundation that will help to see us through.

As I mentioned a few days ago, I am currently looking into the production of ferric oxalate, not because I am dissatisfied with Bostick&Sullivan's product, but merely out of a thirst for knowledge.

I do not know the recipe of B&S, presumably it is iron(III)-nitrate and oxalic acid.

In my first attempt I followed the recipe of Pizzighelli and Hübl (ferric hydrate and oxalic acid). An interesting alternative, but time-consuming.

In the second attempt, it was iron(III)-nitrate and oxalic acid. The time required is similar, but with fewer steps.

The substance is not clearly defined, which makes it difficult to determine the exact content of oxalate solutions. The prevailing opinion is that the solution for the platinum process should contain 27% iron(III)-oxalate, for the Kallitypy 20%.

For practical purposes, the determination method using the specific gravity is sufficiently accurate, although any free oxalic acid present cannot be determined.

For the Kallitype, a specific gravity of 1.13 results in a solution of about 20%; for the comparison of the mode of action, the three oxalate solutions were brought to exactly this value. The measurement of the pH value showed clear deviations between the (acidic) solutions, which indicates different contents of free oxalic acid.

To obtain comparable densities, different exposure times were necessary.

From left to right:

B&S 3 minutes, P&H 2:30 minutes, Ox (iron nitrate) 2:15 minutes.

 

Wie schon vor einigen Tagen erwähnt, beschäftige ich mich momentan mit der Herstellung von Eisen(III)-Oxalat, nicht weil ich mit dem Produkt von Bostick&Sullivan unzufrieden wäre, sondern lediglich aus Wissensdrang.

Die Rezeptur von B&S ist mir nicht bekannt, vermutlich handelt es sich um Eisen(III)-Nitrat und Oxalsäure.

Bei meinem ersten Versuch bin ich nach der Rezeptur von Pizzighelli und Hübl (Eisen(III)-Hydrat und Oxalsäure) vorgegangen. Eine interessante Alternative, doch der Zeitaufwand ist hoch.

Beim zweiten Versuch waren es Eisen(III)-Nitrat und Oxalsäure. Der zeitliche Aufwand ist ähnlich hoch, allerdings bei weniger Arbeitsschritten.

Die Substanz ist nicht klar definiert, was es schwierig macht, den exakten Gehalt von Oxalat-Lösungen zu bestimmen. Nach vorherrschender Auffassung sollte die Lösung für den Platinprozeß 27% Eisen(III)-Oxalat enthalten, für die Kallitypie 20%.

Für die Praxis ist die Bestimmungsmethode über das spezifische Gewicht hinreichend genau, wobei allerdings ein eventuell vorhandener Anteil an freier Oxalsäure nicht festgestellt werden kann.

Für die Kallitype ergibt sich bei einem spezifischen Gewicht von 1.13 eine etwa 20% Lösung, für den Vergleich der Wirkungsweise wurden die drei Oxalatlösungen auf exakt diesen Wert gebracht. Die Messung des pH-Wertes zeigte deutliche Abweichungen zwischen den (sauren) Lösungen, was auf unterschiedlichen Gehalt an freier Oxalsäure hindeutet.

A very common bird in the Himalayan belt - they were more common than Crows and Sparrows much to my surprise. They were present in the cities, forest areas, hill sides and even around river edges and garbage dumps. The bird must have adapted to the environments around it.

 

We sighted it several times and our bird guides found it amusing that we were excited about it and photographed it. The bird has an easy to remember whistling call, but we didn't hear it much during the trip. Maybe its not the breeding season.

 

Many thanks in advance for your views, faves and feedback.

Baburgh St Aidan's Church.

 

According to Bede, St Aidan built a wooden church outside the castle wall in AD 635, and he died here in AD 652. A wooden beam preserved inside the church is traditionally said to be the one on which he rested as he died.

The present church dates from the late 12th century,

Just a little barn, trying to remain upright through another Missouri season of tornadoes and heavy rain. I guess we all have storms to weather, but with hopefully brighter days ahead!

It was a dark and drippy day in central Texas. The wet foliage really catches the light though.

Daybreak at the lakeside haunt

A pair of class 37s, unit 37405 with 37407 tailing, approach Derby some 66 minutes early with the 9.50am Canton Taff Vale Sidings - Derby RTC (1Z33) track-testing train.

 

The early arrival didn't seem to phase the healthy collection of enthusiasts on the station eager to get up close and personal to these 60yo machines. The train stopped here for a few minutes before reversing in to Network Rail's 'Research and Technical Centre', a few hundred yards out of sight on the left.

 

Comments off, thanks.
