Don't Sweat the Small Stuff
Breeze through your Christmas list and support great local art to boot
By John Linn
Every year you make a promise to yourself to get your Christmas shopping done early. You swear you won't procrastinate like you did last Christmas, when you ended up giving out leftover hurricane supplies as last minute presents. ("Oh come on, Dad," you said, "Sterno is great for sooo many things.") No, this year you have to stick to your resolution to get creative-yet-economical gifts in a timely fashion. Luckily, Bear and Bird Gallery is all about helping you achieve your goal of present-purchasing perfection. The boutique and gallery is turning their latest exhibition, "Small Stuff 2," into a "cash and carry" art show where you can check out what's on the wall and take it home the same day, all on the cheap.
"Small Stuff 2" is all about compact pieces of art that are perfect for gift-giving. None of the locally and nationally produced pieces are bigger than eight-by-ten inches, and all are priced to match - so you don't have choose between getting the cutesy Helena Garcia piece for your girlfriend or buying the Terribly Odd print for your brother. Just get both! Like most art shows at B&B, everything that's on display will be for sale. But unlike other exhibitions, buyers will get to pay for their colorful piece of pop art and take it home the same day (leaving plenty of time for wrapping). That also means the only way to see the exhibit in full is to show up today from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. for the special preview. Come back starting at 7 p.m. for the reception, where you can dig on free wine and cheese while you snatch up the nifty pieces you had your eye on earlier. Oh, and if you do plan on procrastinating this year, you'll still be in good hands: "Small Stuff 2" is on display through January 10. Call 954-560-3660, or visit bearandbird.com.

Here's the blog writeup on the making of it: srolfe.com/2013/05/15/mermer/
To be able to have an E-locker in the rear I need a full floating rear axle. Land Cruisers (40 series) came factory with one on the FJ45 pickup only. The issue is of course that the axle didn't have an e-brake since it was located on the back of the transfer case. The BJ42 doesn't have that, so I needed to add an e-brake to the FJ45 axle. Not a simple task. The two backing plates are completely different, have different spacing and a different mounting pattern. This required a bit more work. A full writeup will be available soon. In the meantime, here are some pics that give you an idea of what needs to be done.

No, I don't remember what Aisha Tyler was doing as she was sitting down. But she looks funny and that's all that matters, right?
Hey, you should read my writeup of the panel. It's pretty good. And it has sound clips!
This is the inside of the Anderson crypt in Earlston Cemetery, Wallasey, This tomb is normally closed to the public, but fortune chanced upon me a rare glimpse inside. The crypt was built over the family grave, and contains this plaque on the rear wall, and a smaller plaque on the right hand side wall of the parents son in law. (Shown here www.flickr.com/photos/slothster/14259809378/in/photostream/)
The top two profiles are the parents Louisa [Nee Trowell] and Andrew Anderson. The lower three are the sons, all of whom died in the Great War.
Bernhard Anderson:
A Lieutenant in the Royal Navy, was killed along with 57 others when the U-boats U153 and U154 attacked HMS Bombala off the coast of West Africa. There are numerous reports of how the ship put up a fight, including mention of how Bernhard Anderson was instrumental in this, staying on board with other gunners till the ship was sunk. Below is an account of the battle taken from www.masonicgreatwarproject.org.uk/writeup.php?string=43
“The vessel 'Bombala' went by several names. Originally she was the 'Willow Branch' and was converted to a Q-Ship. She also went under the name of the 'Britannia'. A Q-Ship was a heavily armed merchant ship with concealed weaponry, designed to lure submarines into making surface attacks. This gave Q-ship the chance to open fire and sink them. The tactic of the Q-ship directly led to German U-Boat captains being highly suspicious of all merchant vessels and contributed to the sinking of unarmed and neutral merchantmen. Eventually this considerably influenced opinion in the USA and contributed to the background to the decision of the USA to enter the war on the side of the Allies in 1917.
HMS Bombala left Gibraltar on April 18, 1918, for Sierra Leone. A week later, off the West African Coast, she sighted a submarine off the port quarter, and a few minutes later a second one off the starboard bow. These were German submarine cruisers U-153 & U-154 each armed with two 10.5cm and two 8.8cm guns. They were working together off NW Africa at the time. Both submarines opened their attack with shells, this class of submarine also being armed with a couple of 5.9 guns. After about thirty rounds the Germans found the range and then began to hit the ship repeatedly, carrying away the wireless and causing many casualties. Lieutenant Anderson shortened the range so that HMS Bombala could use her 4-inch and 14-pounder guns, and the action went on for two and a half hours. By that time Bombala was done for, and it was impossible to save the ship. The crew were ordered into the lifeboats, and then the ship foundered, bows first. It was reported that Lt Anderson 'was picked up badly wounded after the ship had sunk but died a few days later from exposure'. This report originated from two men who apparently survived and who presumably picked up Lt Anderson from the sea. However other sources indicate that there were no survivors.
However, the Q-ship had not sunk without severely damaging the enemy, for when the submarines came alongside Bombala's boats it was found that in one of the submarines there were seven killed and four wounded. Again this report depends on survivors to tell it. On balance it is not possible to be 100% certain of the final moments of the Q-Ship HMS Bombala but it seems fair to believe that Lt Anderson did lead a spirited defence against the two U Boats. The vessel sank NE of the Cape Verde Islands, off Cape Blanco (now Ras Nouadhibou), Mauritania (20.50.N, 17.20.W) “
Stanley Anderson
Fourth Engineer Officer
Stanley, a Fourth Engineer Officer, was one of four killed when the ship, St Ursula, was torpedoed without warning by U-Boat U32. The ship was a cargo vessel and only had defensive armaments.
Anders Anderson
Two Andrew Andersons were killed at Hooge Flanders on the 16th June 1915, no age or details of family are given in the Commonwealth War Records, thus finding any other details his life or service record are impossible.

Some raw footage from the Mclaren Park race. I just really thought this was a nice shot, and my wife caught the sweep of this part of the course. I think this was from the second lap (of five).

This statue is located in Bailey Park on the east side of town and faces 22nd Ave (US79/70A). The monument which honors CSA soldiers from Gibson County was built by the local chapter of the Daughters of the Confederacy. It was carved by J.J. Snyder of Eclipse Marble Works in 1914. The statue was originally located along Main St. but later moved here.
Here is the Smithsonian writeup of the statue:
Figure of a Confederate soldier standing at parade rest. He wears a uniform consisting of a hip-length coat, trousers, boots, and a brimmed hat. The bearded figure holds the barrel of a rifle with both hands. The butt of the rifle rests in front of his proper right foot. His proper left foot is slightly forward and bent at the knee. The tiered granite base includes four columns around a central block of granite.
