I walked all over Beacon Hill in the rain this past week. It really was fun because it wasn't raining too hard. Daffodils were everywhere in the window boxes. I guess every one dressed up their homes for Easter. Since the only gardens are the ones "hidden" in back yards, window boxes are "the thing." These bright and cheery daffodils (even in the rain) are only two of the ones I saw.
East window in All Saints' church, Waldringfield, Suffolk. Attributed by Birkin Haward to Lavers & Barraud. c1864. This window, showing the Baptism of Christ, the Crucifixion and the Last Supper was installed in the church during the Victorian reconstruction of the 1860s.
It is sometimes referred to as the Coprolite window, as the restoration was financed from the profits of the local Coprolite trade, a thriving business at the time, in which nodules were dug out of the glebe lands, washed on the nearby beach, then transported by barge down the Deben to Ipswich, where it was mixed with sulphuric acid to make an early form of superphosphate fertiliser.

The broken windows theory is a criminological theory of the norm-setting and signaling effect of urban disorder and vandalism on additional crime and anti-social behavior. The theory states that maintaining and monitoring urban environments to prevent small crimes such as vandalism, public drinking, and toll-jumping helps to create an atmosphere of order and lawfulness, thereby preventing more serious crimes from happening.
