I live virtually next to this church and we got woken up by the girls next door saying the flames were atleast 7 storeys high, watched it for awhile on the rooftop (level 9) then went downstairs to mountain street, and after watching the roof collapse I got interviewed by Daily Telegraph and Radio 2UE.
These photos are RAW. I got to show them to Daily Telegraph and the photographer was impressed we got such a spectacular view (it's so sad):(

Sydney icon goes up in flames
By Jano Gibson and Dylan Welch
May 10, 2006 - 11:24AM
The Lord giveth and the Lord taketh away.
That was the message today on the website of Sydney's historic St Barnabas Church, which was destroyed by fire early this morning.
Firefighters were called to the 148-year-old church, on the corner of Mountain Street and Broadway, about 3.30am (AEST) after the fire broke out in the building and neighbouring hall.
The UniLodge block, which houses up to 600 people behind the church, was saved because of a sprinkler system that doused the outside of the building, creating a water shield, a fire brigade spokesman told ABC Radio.
Anglican Bishop of South Sydney Robert Forsyth, who was minister of the church for 17 years, said today he was shocked to learn of the fire, but there was no doubt St Barnabas would be rebuilt.
"The attitude of the minister and elsewhere is a mixture: it's sad, but they also are defiant and hopeful," he said.
"If you believe in a resurrecting God, a church burning down is sad but it's not the end of the world."
Since the 1920s, St Barnabas has been well-known for its friendly feud with the nearby Broadway Hotel, with the two institutions trading witty messages on their prominent street-side billboards.
Smouldering shell
More than 60 firefighters, using 10 pumping appliances and three ladder trucks, fought the blaze and were able to prevent it from spreading to the UniLodge block.
The church was left a smouldering shell. Fire investigators this morning say they can't confirm yet whether it will have to be pulled down but "it's not looking good".
They said the front and rear walls - the oldest parts of the building - were unlikely to remain.
St Barnabas Church Assistant Minister Andrew Ford said it was very sad to see the building go.
"[It was] a great place for people in the community for almost 150 years."
Mr Ford said some of Sydney's oldest stained glass and one of the oldest organs had also been lost.
Mr Jurgeit said at least two people had reported hearing explosions about the same time as the church caught fire.
"There was some reports of an explosion in the church at the time we were notified of the fire. We've got a fire investigator on scene at the moment."
Once the church's walls have been stabilised, an investigation will begin into the cause of the fire.
"Fire investigators [will] go in and possibly use a K9 accelerant dog to sniff for petrols and things like that."
The fire forced the closure of all four Broadway lanes in the area but Mr Jurgeit said it would reopen by about 6.40am.
The RTA's Traffic Management Centre said motorists using Broadway would experience only minor delays this morning.
Mr Forsythe said services that would normally be held in the gutted building - including a baptism planned for this Sunday - would still go ahead at alternative locations.
He said the church was in negotiations with Moore College at Sydney University and hoped to use one of its lecture halls to hold services in the short term.
Here are some examples of the sign board battle with the nearby Broadway Hotel that appeared in the Herald's Column 8 section over the years:
- The battle of wits between the Broadway Hotel and St Barnabas Church up the road has joined in on the Christmas spirit. The church sign reads: "Wise men came to Jesus - they still do.'' To which the hotel has replied: "Wise drinkers come to Broadway - they still do.''
- The battle of the Broadway sign boards rages on. At St Barnabas Church is a sign that reads: "You have nothing that God did not give you.'' Across the road at the Broadway Hotel is another sign that reads: "I know I have nothing, but I'm not sure who gave it to me."
- Sun pun - At St Barnabas Church on Broadway, a large Easter sign outside says: "The Father did not spare his son but gave him up for us all.'' Across the road, at the Broadway Hotel, is a sign which reads: "And behold, all we have is the Mirror."
- In the election spirit, the latest message from St Barnabas Church, Broadway, reads: "God keeps his promises."
My personal favorite hike, 1 of 5: DEVILS GARDEN TRAIL, ARCHES NATIONAL PARK.
My partner and I hiked Devils Garden and Primitive Loop Trails well-graded main trail with two side trails for 7.2 miles, 330 feet elevation change in least five hours in July 2011. Compare to world-famous Arches' Delicate Arch trail, Devils Garden markings of one of spectacular hike to sightseeing seven stunning arches, ominous monolith - Dark Angel, overlook of labyrinth rock fins and few spots to climb the rock formations. There is no better trail to appreciate the dynamic nature of the park's namesake formations - in fact, there is nowhere else on the earth where I can get up-close and personal to view collection of natural arches.
I live virtually next to this church and we got woken up by the girls next door saying the flames were atleast 7 storeys high, watched it for awhile on the rooftop (level 9) then went downstairs to mountain street, and after watching the roof collapse I got interviewed by Daily Telegraph and Radio 2UE.

"Fire investigators [will] go in and possibly use a K9 accelerant dog to sniff for petrols and things like that."
The fire forced the closure of all four Broadway lanes in the area but Mr Jurgeit said it would reopen by about 6.40am.
The RTA's Traffic Management Centre said motorists using Broadway would experience only minor delays this morning.
Mr Forsythe said services that would normally be held in the gutted building - including a baptism planned for this Sunday - would still go ahead at alternative locations.
He said the church was in negotiations with Moore College at Sydney University and hoped to use one of its lecture halls to hold services in the short term.
Here are some examples of the sign board battle with the nearby Broadway Hotel that appeared in the Herald's Column 8 section over the years:
- The battle of wits between the Broadway Hotel and St Barnabas Church up the road has joined in on the Christmas spirit. The church sign reads: "Wise men came to Jesus - they still do.'' To which the hotel has replied: "Wise drinkers come to Broadway - they still do.''
- The battle of the Broadway sign boards rages on. At St Barnabas Church is a sign that reads: "You have nothing that God did not give you.'' Across the road at the Broadway Hotel is another sign that reads: "I know I have nothing, but I'm not sure who gave it to me."
- Sun pun - At St Barnabas Church on Broadway, a large Easter sign outside says: "The Father did not spare his son but gave him up for us all.'' Across the road, at the Broadway Hotel, is a sign which reads: "And behold, all we have is the Mirror."
- In the election spirit, the latest message from St Barnabas Church, Broadway, reads: "God keeps his promises."

Sydney icon goes up in flames
By Jano Gibson and Dylan Welch
May 10, 2006 - 11:24AM
The Lord giveth and the Lord taketh away.
That was the message today on the website of Sydney's historic St Barnabas Church, which was destroyed by fire early this morning.
Firefighters were called to the 148-year-old church, on the corner of Mountain Street and Broadway, about 3.30am (AEST) after the fire broke out in the building and neighbouring hall.
The UniLodge block, which houses up to 600 people behind the church, was saved because of a sprinkler system that doused the outside of the building, creating a water shield, a fire brigade spokesman told ABC Radio.
Anglican Bishop of South Sydney Robert Forsyth, who was minister of the church for 17 years, said today he was shocked to learn of the fire, but there was no doubt St Barnabas would be rebuilt.
"The attitude of the minister and elsewhere is a mixture: it's sad, but they also are defiant and hopeful," he said.
"If you believe in a resurrecting God, a church burning down is sad but it's not the end of the world."
Since the 1920s, St Barnabas has been well-known for its friendly feud with the nearby Broadway Hotel, with the two institutions trading witty messages on their prominent street-side billboards.
Smouldering shell
More than 60 firefighters, using 10 pumping appliances and three ladder trucks, fought the blaze and were able to prevent it from spreading to the UniLodge block.
The church was left a smouldering shell. Fire investigators this morning say they can't confirm yet whether it will have to be pulled down but "it's not looking good".
They said the front and rear walls - the oldest parts of the building - were unlikely to remain.
St Barnabas Church Assistant Minister Andrew Ford said it was very sad to see the building go.
"[It was] a great place for people in the community for almost 150 years."
Mr Ford said some of Sydney's oldest stained glass and one of the oldest organs had also been lost.
Mr Jurgeit said at least two people had reported hearing explosions about the same time as the church caught fire.

Saiba mais sobre a Italianinha:
艺人：Bruce Springsteen
唱片：Born In The U.S.A
厂牌：Columbia
时间：1984/6/4
专辑介绍：
销售在美国本土就突破千万张，除勇夺英、美排行冠军外，并在专辑排行榜 TOP10 上停留达 84 周之久。此张专辑不仅花了两年的时间制作，其中收录的单曲并从100 多首歌曲精选而来。而专辑是以一个美国公民的身份，来探讨Bruce 对人生的看法，和回忆美国参加越战的情形，以及一些越战英雄，处于现今社会不知何去何从的处境。从不拍摄 MTV 的 Bruce 破例将1984年在圣保罗演唱会实况，剪成一支为他夺得第 27 届葛莱美奖「最佳摇滚男歌手」演唱奖单曲「Dancing In The Dark」的MTV。「No Surrender」以绝不向岁月低头，好比在寒冬中与敌人奋战绝不妥协的精神为人所感佩。此专辑出现的单曲比以往多，包括「Cover Me」(TOP7)、「Glory Day」(TOP5)、「Born In The U.S.A. 」(TOP9)、「I'm On Fire」 (TOP6)、「I'm Going Down」 (TOP9)、「My Home Town」(TOP16) 等。
这张专辑在[滚石]杂志中评分为5星，在此杂志评选的摇滚史上最伟大的500张摇滚专辑中排名86位。
在现代音乐史上，所有以美利坚合众国为题的歌曲里，当属《American》和《Born In The U.S.A》两首最为出名，其中前者以知识分子的角度回顾了美国六十年代的历史，不过由于视角的关系，唐.麦克林（Don McLean）更多是将主题放在了文化范畴和宏观的历史事件，所以这首歌曲在流传性上肯定不及《Born In U.S.A》更具民众的亲合力，因为《Born In U.S.A》与之相比，它简洁而口号的歌词、流畅的旋律加上简单的歌词显然更容易在社会各个阶层传唱。只是这样一首以反战为主题，歌颂美国民众的歌曲，最终却还是被政客利用，将它简而化之成一首带有沙文主义倾向的爱国主义歌曲。
《Born In The U.S.A》发行于专辑《Nebraska》之后，而后者的低调和苦难曾经一度让唱片公司大为不满，毕竟这样的用四轨机录制的民谣专辑可能会占领一小部份市场，却绝对满足不了哥伦比亚这样的唱片巨头对史普林斯廷的要求，于是，之后史普林斯廷搬出了他的老朋友“E大街”（E Street Band）和他一起进棚录音，这一次民谣吉它终于全部换成了电台它，音量也开始增大，气势开始逼人，史普林斯廷也一扫上一张专辑气氛上的阴霾，取而代之以一种很直接的方式重新讲述数之不尽的社会问题。
这是一张几乎一气呵成的专辑，仿佛有着佛教的顿悟，在见过太多底层民众的苦难之后，当史普林斯廷操起吉它时，突然种种画面齐聚眼前，让他除了将之唱个畅快之外别无选择，音乐依然是粗线条的，似乎精雕细凿也历来不是他的强项，反正乐坛有的是追求完美主义的大师，那就还是多给我们一个像史普林斯廷这样原始的歌手吧！听他的音乐，你永远不用在乐器的编排或层次问题上较劲，还是跟着他的歌声一起《Cover Me》吧！几声失真吉它Solo干涩却有劲，一切又不喧宾夺主，该回到歌唱的时候，它们绝不会不合时宜的出现。甚至旋律相近也没什么关系，像《Darlington County》和《Born In The U.S.A》这样的“近亲繁殖”经由史普林斯廷之口倒也算不了什么大罪过，却反倒是更能让人感受到史普斯廷那胸中唱之不尽的欲望。
来自底层、缺乏教育的史普林斯廷从来不会拐弯抹角的谈现实、说问题，像《Working On The Highway》、《My Hometown》这样的作品都是以大白话贯穿始终，没有虚情假意的修饰，却又能让人读到底层民众粗俗中蕴含的睿智，说它们是平民自己的史诗一点也不为过。甚至在这张专辑公开发行20年后的今天，做为东方人的我依然能在这其中听到里面的热血和真挚，也难怪美国人会这么喜欢史普林斯廷了。

The fire forced the closure of all four Broadway lanes in the area but Mr Jurgeit said it would reopen by about 6.40am.
The RTA's Traffic Management Centre said motorists using Broadway would experience only minor delays this morning.
Mr Forsythe said services that would normally be held in the gutted building - including a baptism planned for this Sunday - would still go ahead at alternative locations.
He said the church was in negotiations with Moore College at Sydney University and hoped to use one of its lecture halls to hold services in the short term.
Here are some examples of the sign board battle with the nearby Broadway Hotel that appeared in the Herald's Column 8 section over the years:
- The battle of wits between the Broadway Hotel and St Barnabas Church up the road has joined in on the Christmas spirit. The church sign reads: "Wise men came to Jesus - they still do.'' To which the hotel has replied: "Wise drinkers come to Broadway - they still do.''
- The battle of the Broadway sign boards rages on. At St Barnabas Church is a sign that reads: "You have nothing that God did not give you.'' Across the road at the Broadway Hotel is another sign that reads: "I know I have nothing, but I'm not sure who gave it to me."
- Sun pun - At St Barnabas Church on Broadway, a large Easter sign outside says: "The Father did not spare his son but gave him up for us all.'' Across the road, at the Broadway Hotel, is a sign which reads: "And behold, all we have is the Mirror."
- In the election spirit, the latest message from St Barnabas Church, Broadway, reads: "God keeps his promises."

Zomerstalling!
Een groepstentoonstelling over verfestivallisering en beeldende kunst
27 juni t/m 6 september 2015 in de tentoonstellings- en podiumruimte
Feestelijke opening: donderdag 2 juli om 17.00 uur door Ernst Houdkamp, zakelijk leider van festival 'Into The Great Wide Open'
Elise van der Linden – Arno Arts – Oscar Prinsen – Florentijn Hofman – Arjen Boerstra – Uwe Dobberstein – Rutger Zuydervelt – galerieopweg – Rob Sweere – Maaike Folmer
Het is zomer en het festivalseizoen is in volle gang: volgens de laatste festivalmonitor kent Nederland op dit moment maar liefst 801 festivals met meer dan drieduizend bezoekers en daarnaast nog heel veel kleinere festivals. Het merendeel hiervan zijn muziek- en theaterfestivals.Het festival is als concept zo populair dat er zelfs symposia worden georganiseerd, vermomd als festival. Het festival blijkt een prachtige en krachtige fusie tussen culturele en economische motieven en komt voor in alle actuele beleidsnota’s.
Is die verfestivallisering van onze maatschappij een hype die voorbijgaat of vult het een meer existentiële leegte? De collectieve beleving van een festival – als een tijdelijke, eigen wereld, ver weg van de waan van de dag - is een belangrijke drijfveer voor de bezoekers. Is het festival daarmee een vervanging van de zingeving en het samenzijn met gelijkgestemden van bijvoorbeeld het vroegere kerkbezoek?
'Festivalkunst'
Festivals zijn steeds vaker ook een podium voor de beeldende kunst én daarmee een opdrachtgever die in betekenis toeneemt. Grote kunstwerken die opvallen en zich gemakkelijk laten ervaren, staan prominent op de festivalterreinen. Als decor, side-kick als er even géén concert gaande is, of als fantastisch nieuwe tentoonstellingsplek waar heel veel publiek komt?Hoe houdt een ‘festivalkunstwerk’ zich in een geheel andere context? Als een kunstwerk, dat speciaal is gemaakt voor festivals, niet solo tussen de podia en bars staat maar met een aantal andere werken samen in de white cube? Wat voor relatie gaan ze dan aan met de locatie en elkaar en wat betekent dit voor de beleving en inhoudelijkheid van het werk?
Dat onderzoeken we in ‘Zomerstalling’: een tentoonstelling waar kunstwerken van een tiental kunstenaars ‘gestald’ staan die dit jaar niet te zien zijn op Lowlands, Into the Great Wide Open, Best Kept Secret, Down the Rabbit Hole of een van de vele andere festivals.
Meerjarig onderzoeksprogramma over verfestivallisering
‘Zomerstalling’ is een vooruitblik op een meerjarig programma van het Kunstenlab waarin de verfestivallisering van maatschappij en de betekenis hiervan voor de kunst onderzocht wordt. Een actueel maatschappelijk thema en een vorm van zelfreflectie.
En Deventer is hiervoor een uitstekende onderzoekslocatie: Deventer behoort al jaren tot de top5 van evenementensteden in Nederland, won vorig jaar met Deventer op Stelten de prijs voor het beste publieksevenement van Nederland én is de enige stad waar - zoals de directeur van Evenementenbureau VVV Deventer Hein te Riele het graag verkondigt - het woord ‘event’ in de naam van de stad zelf voorkomt: dEVENTer. Dinsdag t/m zondag van 13.00 tot 17.00 uur. van 14 juli t/m 9 augustus alleen geopend op vrijdag, zaterdag en zondag van 13.00 t/m 17.00 uur.

I live virtually next to this church and we got woken up by the girls next door saying the flames were atleast 7 storeys high, watched it for awhile on the rooftop (level 9) then went downstairs to mountain street, and after watching the roof collapse I got interviewed by Daily Telegraph and Radio 2UE.
These photos are RAW. I got to show them to Daily Telegraph and the photographer was impressed we got such a spectacular view (it's so sad):(

Sydney icon goes up in flames
By Jano Gibson and Dylan Welch
May 10, 2006 - 11:24AM
The Lord giveth and the Lord taketh away.
That was the message today on the website of Sydney's historic St Barnabas Church, which was destroyed by fire early this morning.
Firefighters were called to the 148-year-old church, on the corner of Mountain Street and Broadway, about 3.30am (AEST) after the fire broke out in the building and neighbouring hall.
The UniLodge block, which houses up to 600 people behind the church, was saved because of a sprinkler system that doused the outside of the building, creating a water shield, a fire brigade spokesman told ABC Radio.
Anglican Bishop of South Sydney Robert Forsyth, who was minister of the church for 17 years, said today he was shocked to learn of the fire, but there was no doubt St Barnabas would be rebuilt.
"The attitude of the minister and elsewhere is a mixture: it's sad, but they also are defiant and hopeful," he said.
"If you believe in a resurrecting God, a church burning down is sad but it's not the end of the world."
Since the 1920s, St Barnabas has been well-known for its friendly feud with the nearby Broadway Hotel, with the two institutions trading witty messages on their prominent street-side billboards.
Smouldering shell
More than 60 firefighters, using 10 pumping appliances and three ladder trucks, fought the blaze and were able to prevent it from spreading to the UniLodge block.
The church was left a smouldering shell. Fire investigators this morning say they can't confirm yet whether it will have to be pulled down but "it's not looking good".
They said the front and rear walls - the oldest parts of the building - were unlikely to remain.
St Barnabas Church Assistant Minister Andrew Ford said it was very sad to see the building go.
"[It was] a great place for people in the community for almost 150 years."
Mr Ford said some of Sydney's oldest stained glass and one of the oldest organs had also been lost.
Mr Jurgeit said at least two people had reported hearing explosions about the same time as the church caught fire.
"There was some reports of an explosion in the church at the time we were notified of the fire. We've got a fire investigator on scene at the moment."
Once the church's walls have been stabilised, an investigation will begin into the cause of the fire.
"Fire investigators [will] go in and possibly use a K9 accelerant dog to sniff for petrols and things like that."
The fire forced the closure of all four Broadway lanes in the area but Mr Jurgeit said it would reopen by about 6.40am.
The RTA's Traffic Management Centre said motorists using Broadway would experience only minor delays this morning.
Mr Forsythe said services that would normally be held in the gutted building - including a baptism planned for this Sunday - would still go ahead at alternative locations.
He said the church was in negotiations with Moore College at Sydney University and hoped to use one of its lecture halls to hold services in the short term.
Here are some examples of the sign board battle with the nearby Broadway Hotel that appeared in the Herald's Column 8 section over the years:
- The battle of wits between the Broadway Hotel and St Barnabas Church up the road has joined in on the Christmas spirit. The church sign reads: "Wise men came to Jesus - they still do.'' To which the hotel has replied: "Wise drinkers come to Broadway - they still do.''
