Earth Notes: Vent-Axia Lo-Carbon Tempra single-room MHRV: Review

Updated 2020-11-20 21:45 GMT.
Learn how our Tempra MHRV helps keep humidity down in the kitchen and the air fresh, even when drying laundry in winter. #frugal #cutCarbon
Why MHRV? As we reduce 'uncontrolled' ventilation to reduce heat loss/demand, we need to introduce controlled ventilation to keep levels of humidity and CO2 (and other pollutants) down. MHRV does that efficiently, with low heat loss per unit of ventilation.

What Does MHRV Mean?

MHRV stands for Mechanical Heat-Recovery Ventilation.

(There are various other names for MHRV, such as MVHR or Mechanical Ventilation with Heat Recovery. SRHRV ie Single Room Heat Recovery Ventilation is a more specific term for the particular style I review here. Also energy saving fan or energy-efficient extractor fan. See the glossary.)

Lo-Carbon Tempra Review Summary

Vent-Axia (MPN 443312):
  • Reviewed by: on .
  • Keeps air fresh and humidity down, retains heat
  • Does what it claims on the tin, still going after 5 years. Maybe a tiny bit louder than expected, and of marginal length to go through our wall. Not so easy to clean as the HR25 without access to the outside.
  • Rating: 4.5 out of 5.

See the article on MHRV (Mechanical Heat-Recovery Ventilation) more broadly. AKA "MVHR" and SRHRV (Single Room Heat Recovery Ventilation) amongst other names!

Why the Tempra P?

As of October 2012 we'd refitted part of the kitchen and were thinking about doing the rest. The work included replacing the existing gas stove and replacing the old passive (air-grille) ventilation with MHRV such as an HR-25. However we wanted manual boost only, since an automatic humdistat would be likely to annoy us by coming on noisily with us present in the kitchen, given our experience with the bathroom HR25H.

As of 2012-10-07 I was looking at the HR200WK for kitchens, though at 25W--140W and ~£500 it was considerably more heavy-weight than the HR25. HR25 noise levels db(A) are 16.8/49.2 vs 19--46 for the HR500WK. The heat recovery is also lower for the HR500K (~75%--65% vs 80%), but the flow is much more nearly balanced at trickle 60m^3/h (17l/s) extract and 50(13) intake for trickle up to 220e and 220i in boost, and compares to the HR25 20e/8i trickle and 55e/36i boost, ie 3--4x. The HR500WK specifies a minimum 600mm separation from a gas flue.

The Kair HRV150 was also a contender though takes 9W in trickle mode to shift ~5l/s, which seems poor, while claiming up to 86% heat recovery.

The Vent-Axia Lo-Carbon Tempra range came to my attention and looked interesting. The 'P' pull-cord model for boost mode is ~£180, up to "78% efficient", is marked as suitable for kitchens, trickle mode consumes ~2W shifting 6l/s (22m^3/h), or ~5W @ 9l/s (32m^3/h) in 'trickle high' mode, rising to 13l/s (47m^3/h @17.2W) on boost and even a little higher 'intermittent', so similar to the HR25 in extract throughput and a little lower heat recovery. The Tempra is balanced, though can be put in summer extract-only mode.

In the end the Tempra-P seemed to be the best fit for our requirements, and was relatively cheap at a little under £180 all-in from DEALEC. (DEALEC was also helpful with delivery timing, where others are often indifferent...)

Flue and Other Issues

I asked the following on eBuild:

I'm trying to find a space for MHRV and my current thinking is to use the same through-the-wall single-room Vent-Axia MHRV HR-25 as we have in the bathroom.

The most obvious spot on an external wall is a couple of feet from the gas boiler flue and roughly level with it.

  • What are safety and building control considerations eg with combustion products being drawn into the MHRV? (I vaguely remember seeing diagrams in the regs part F or whichever: am I imagining it?)
  • This new penetration would emerge above a (not-much-used) public footpath as the gas flue does ~10 feet up: is that a technical trespass, ie do I officially need planning or a waiver or something?

I was referred to this very useful document: Location of flues to prevent ingress of gas and oil firing flue gases under all weather conditions (PDF) from 2006, and also a discussion "distance between boiler flue and MVHR intake" at the AECB.

The nub seems to be to keep the flue and vent at least 30cm apart (and not under a common overhang, which does not apply to us). I should possibly check 'Approved Document J' and BS5440 table C1.

The HR25 installation documentation says: "14. The external cowl of the unit must be sited at least 500mm away from any flue of gas or solid fuel appliances. This is to avoid back flow of gases entering the room."

Inspection suggests that we could ensure a 50cm horizontal spacing and have the MHVR pipe a little below the flue level so as to be out of the way of the buoyant warm flue gases.

2012-10-08: just spoke to local building control and for a balanced combi flue (as mine is) then regs / Part J says 300mm+ (else 600mm+) to my MHRV intake is fine. Now seeking permission from the housing department for the works (it owns the path over which my pipe would emerge), to avoid a trespass.

2012-10-09: A Vent-Axia "Technical Support Advisor" recommended "the tempra for ease of maintenance and replacement" over the HR25, and as to spacing from the flue "although 300mm will be sufficient if you can be 500mm away then this would reduce the risk of backfeed."

2012-10-22: received a letter from RBK Housing today permitting me to install the MHRV (subject to 300mm clearance from other wall penetrations, etc).

2012-11-03: I have read The Laundry Design Guide. Though I do not agree with some of their suggestions such as reintroduction of hot-fill washing machines (hot water simply won't reach many machines before they've filled with the water already in the pipework!), I do think that the 8l/s/person target ventilation figure is useful. That would keep CO2 levels acceptable at below 1000ppm in the main, and a Tempra is thus about 1 person's worth on trickle, 2 on boost. I suspect we'd mainly manually set boost mode when RH% is getting too high, such as during 'passive drying' of laundry.

2012-11-19: Tempra arrived today (pack shots); seems sleeker than the HR25 in various ways. The heat-exchanger of multiple plastic pipes running the length of the vent looks robust and simple.

2012-12-26: Tempra installed today (pics) by the builder: seemed to be less hassle than the HR25H, though that may just be practice, and now we do know the wall build-up! Seems about same noise or less than fridge/freezer when running. Seems to be dropping the RH of incoming air as expected. On pull-cord activated 'boost' it is noisier than the dehumdifier. Have positioned the isolation/off switch where Jean can get to it fairly easily. (I switched the ADSL modem to off-grid solar PV while the power was off, ensuring that didn't go off the air, amongst other things.)

Note that we now have a fairly good idea of the wall construction for future works (such as IWI/superinsulation):

or ~250mm+ total thickness cf maximum thickness 318mm for the fan, eg see just before brick outer was cored.

Note that there are still fixed vents in the kitchen wall (on the far side of the room from the Tempra) that should remain until such time as the gas cooker goes to avoid CO (carbon monoxide) and other risks.

What are the Lo-Carbon Tempra Specs?

Tempra Specifications
Trickle LowTrickle HighBoostIntermittent

(See Vent-Axia's Lo-Carbon Tempra - single-room heat-recovery range page.)

Our Use

We are using "Trickle Low" and "Boost" factory defaults I think, with "Trickle Low" being by far the most energy efficient in terms of flow rate per Watt (~0.3W/l/s), and the intention is to leave the fan on 'trickle' all the time (possibly not at night depending on noise) with only the occasional boost, eg for a new load of washing hung up to dry.

The Tempra's trickle flow represents about one person's ventilation needs.

Is the Tempra Noisy?

No, unless you put it in boost mode to help clear the air quickly! Then it is just like any other extractor fan.

(Almost 7 years after installation I overheard my son asking incredulously something to the effect of "We have a fan in here?" so it can't be that bad!)

Does the Tempra Work?

Yes. Over time we're decided that it really helps with drying the laundry for example, and it's quiet enough even at night. We don't use boost much.

2012-11-28: initial observations suggest that it does indeed do the job, especially when it's cold (and thus low-humidity) outside. The kitchen air is fresher and warmer than I'd otherwise expect, and humidity in the kitchen seems to be brought down quickly, eg from 88%RH after with cooking and supper to 78% in less than 30 minutes, and kept to 70%RH or lower even with laundry drying.

Boost mode helps a bit when RH is high, but the slow-and-steady 6l/s trickle mode is likely much more efficient at keeping RH down over a day. Boost is OK to leave on when out of the kitchen and hardly audible from the alleyway, not much more than the gas flue, so unlikely to be a nuisance and not much different to the portable dehumdifier.

After a few nights we're still deciding if the trickle mode is too noisy to be left on all night (as the fan is directly below the master bedroom).

2012-12-02: RH in the kitchen has been down to just over 50% with the cold (~0°C) air outside for the last few days. We have had the fan off the last few nights because of the noise.

2012-12-14: Although for noise reasons we have not had this kitchen fan on every night, it has been on through sub-zero external temperatures, and in contrast to the HR25H in the bathroom seems resistant to getting iced up and unbalanced and rattling and needing to be turned off to recover. This is possibly because the Tempra fan is on the warm side of the exchanger.

The fan has been helping laundry dry (sometimes we put it in boost when we're not in the room and there's a fresh load out) and, I think, helping to avoid moisture migrating out of the kitchen to the rest of the house, to the point where, in conjunction with the cold dry air outside, we've needed almost no dehumidifier use and RH is staying around or below 70% most places.

I'm pretty sure that I've not detected any smell from gas-flue exhaust getting back into the house via the MHRV,

2013-01-06: we seem to be getting more used to the small amount of noise from the fan, and it is being left on at night for now.

2013-01-17: with overnight temperatures down to -4°C the HR25H started rattling badly (presumably from ice on the fan) but the Tempra was fine, possibly because the fan is on the warm interior-side of the unit.

2017-04-17: still going strong, still quiet and has never frozen up or failed; would be nice if there was a good way to clean it! Seems to have a sensible delay before coming back on after power is restored, which could help avoid damage to the unit during mains troubles, and is also kind to the wiring and grid at such moments...

On Turning 24

If 40 is the new 30 and 30 is the new 20, then 24 is somewhere between dazed & confused and probably caffeinated. Twenty four is kind of like Taylor’s 22 but a little less miserable and hopefully more magical; a cross between effective decision-making & hopeless indecision; the balance of adulting & actual adulthood.

Hey, nobody likes you when you’re 23. And while 24 is “really f*cking old” (according to my friend), I’m excited for it.

At twenty four, you’re far enough out of college to know what you like/don’t like about a career, but not far enough into the real world to know what you want to do for the rest of your life. You like your first (or second) job out of school. You get it. You’re good at it. But there are days that you want to quit the whole corporate desk-job thing all together and become a baker at the cute cupcake shop down the street. But you don’t because, well, money & security and having a “real job” is a good thing, so you stay and dream about the day you can open up a coffee shop/bar with cold brew on tap (@sardone).

At twenty four, you keep drinking vodka but swap the cranberry juice for club soda, spend more nights drinking wine in leggings than you care to admit & actually appreciate a good happy hour with a solid cheese plate. Thursday is sorta still the new Friday and yes, hangovers actually do get worse after you graduate.

At twenty four, you legitimately care about your body. Like for real. You start eating vegetables regularly (and enjoying them) & crave exercise–not for weight-loss necessarily, but more because it’s a stress reliever and you need that with your adult real job. It’s not all about how you look but more about how you feel, yet you always make time for 2 a.m. pizza on a Saturday night.

At twenty four, good friends matter. Good relationships matter. You spend less time worrying about what other people think of you and put more effort into the people who make you feel good. You have a limited amount of free time, so you don’t waste it on sucky people who don’t care about you. Laughter is the best medicine & long hugs go a long way. You start to feel really thankful for the amazing people in your life.

At twenty four, you start investing in your happiness. You start to figure out the things that truly give you joy. With complete freedom to do whatever you want to do, you feel anxious completely petrified by the endless possibilities, but then liberated because you literally can do/be/feel/become whatever you want.

I turned twenty four yesterday. My day consisted of scrolling through Facebook posts, catching up with old friends whom I haven’t talked to in a while, crying in the supply closet at work because I didn’t have my life all figured out & drinking really good sauvignon blanc with one of my favorite people in the world. At twenty four, my life is still messy, but I’m getting to be okay with it. I don’t have everything figured out, but I’m coming around to accepting it. At twenty four, I’m starting to feel like I’m finally settling in & figuring out exactly who I want to be. &.

{Thank you for everyone who reached out & made my birthday extremely special. I’m humbled by the amount of love and amazing, supportive people I have in my life.}

There's no Net Zero without Biogas: ending waste, delivering the circular economy, tackling the climate crisis.

Anaerobic Co-Digestion

Anaerobic Co-Digestion, as described here, is a successful Municipal Solid  Waste Management strategy where anaerobic digestion is directly integrated with (aerobic) composting in one waste facility.
We published the following article originally about 10 years ago, when anaerobic digestion was still yet to really get started in the UK:

The Magic of Combined Anaerobic Digestion with Composting of Municipal Solid Waste

The portion of the municipal solid waste (MSW) in developed economies, which is organic in nature, and derived from household, industry, gardens, public parks and the treatment of waste wood, has been commonly determined to comprise between 40% and 60% of the total by weight. The proportion is also expected to rise over the next few years, as increased recycling rates are achieved for man made re-useable materials.

Therefore, as countries put in place sophisticated waste processing techniques to reduce the amount of waste generated, and then still wish to reduce the use of landfill still further, the degree of mass reduction, the manner in which this organic fraction is processed and the amount of readily useable and non-renewable energy (replacement fuel) produced by these processes is becoming of greater importance.

Two processes, which have always existed in nature, are popular for the processing of organic MSW, and these will remain favourites with the public because their use avoids burning (incineration). These two are composting, and digestion.

The defining difference between composting and digestion, which are both natural microbiological processes is that in composting decomposition takes place in the presence of sufficient free oxygen (air) to maintain the system aerated (aerobic), whereas in digestion there is no free oxygen, and the only oxygen present is in chemical compounds, and in the microorganisms such as the bacteria which are present.

All MSW contains both woody materials and “wet” organic material such as grass cuttings. The lignified (“more woody”) wastes have to be composted, wet and easily degradable wastes, and sludges, are suitable for anaerobic digestion. In addition these high moisture content wastes will cause odour problems in composting facilities, unless a very high degree of attention is paid to blending and mixing to ensure that a fibrous freely ventilating and completely aerobic composting (fibrous) material structure is retained throughout. In fact, although expert opinions vary, for more than one third of the total potential organic material digestion is a better solution than composting.

In many countries previously heavily dependent on landfill, and embarking on organic waste processing for the first time, it makes good environmental and economic sense to start by building composting facilities. Composting can be by simple windrowing, and the first waste streams treated are usually just those derived from kerbside collection of garden waste, which is readily mixed and composted in most climates.

Nevertheless, not only are the markets limited for the compost products produced, the undoubted value of this material is very difficult to realise as a financial return.

In addition, there is an increasing realisation that this readily compostible kerbside (source segregated) waste once catered for by the provision of suitable composting facilities, is only a first step on the road to achieving reasonable overall waste minimisation targets.

At a point, and probably not too far into the future for many developed nations, the waste industry, politicians, and the public will seek more useable products, and look for benefits in other ways from their waste. These will such as in the production of useable forms of fuels, and the avoidance of greenhouse gas emissions by using organic waste derived fuel as a fossil fuel replacement.

This is where the magic of combined composting and digestion plants will be realised.

Combined plants, where the digestion is directly integrated with composting, show many advantages, such as the appropriate treatment for different substrate fractions, use of the same machineries for the pre- and the post-treatment, self-sufficiency in energy and net energy production, as well as utilisation of the waste water derived from liquid-solid separation at the end of the digestion for the irrigation of the windrows.

Combined AD and Composting – An Anaerobic Co-Digestion System Flow Chart

Combined AD and Composting System Flow Chart

Important advantages of digestion, and the synergies available fom combing the two processes are:-

  • During anaerobic digestion, biogas is produced. The amount of renewable energy freed satisfies the energy need of the whole treatment plant, i.e. for digestion, pre- and post-treatment as well as for automatic turning and aeration of the compost. A very large amount of heat and – depending on the technologies applied – a surplus of electricity may be sold to other users. (In the UK this is considered a green energy and attracts a higher unit rate from the electricity company to which it is sold, under the ROCS Scheme, than for non-renewable or fossil fuel based electricity.)
  • The waste heat from generation can be used in built-up areas in “combined heat and power schemes”, in which instead of the low grade heat after generation going to a cooling tower where it is wasted to the atmosphere, this water (which is actually still very hot in terms of house heating use), can be pumped to provide heating for homes, or to warm factories etc.
  • Instead of using all the energy to generate power, much of the biogas may be used as a fuel.
  • The liquid generated during digestion of separately collected MSW and non-hazardous organic industrial waste is rich in nutrients. If used for irrigation on compost, it improves and eventually accelerates the composting process.
  • This liquid is sterilised by the heat of the digestion process and provides an excellent liquid crop fertiliser in the place of chemical fertilisers.
  • Anaerobic digestion readily complies with the precautions necessary to ensure that infections like the Foot and Mouth disease cannot be spread by waste processes. For most organic waste composting with good practise hygiene techniques is sufficient, but for some “animal by-product” (high infection risk wastes) anaerobic digestion provides easy and dependable sanitisation as an inherent component of the process.
  • If digestion plants are located near oil pipelines carbon shift technology can be incorporated for optimum carbon capture, by removing carbon gas (carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide) from the biogas and placing it underground in long-term storage, thus providing the ultimate in the preservation of our planet as we know it.
  • Furthermore, detailed investment and operating costs for aerobic and anaerobic combined process treatment plants are likely to be cheaper than composting alone, when all lifetime benefits are considered. These benefits include carbon emissions reductions (even without carbon capture), and a premium biogas which can be used (after scrubbing and compression) for fuelling motor vehicles.

Combined plants cost less over their lifetime than plants which treat the wastes exclusively by way of composting, especially if the increasing willingness of governments to provide operators with financial and tax reduction incentives toward carbon emissions reduction continues, and there is good reason to expect that such incentives will rise dramatically over the next five to ten years.

As described earlier, when all things are considered, combined anaerobic digestion and composting can not only be very significantly cheaper than composting alone, but the mass of the residue sent to landfill in the end will also be reduced, and global warming emissions are also minimised. Therefore, the treatment of organic MSW in combined plants is highly recommended, and all those involved in the planning and design of waste treatment facilities should consider these benefits.

While it must always be recognised that although combined anaerobic digestion will not always be the best option for all district locations, residents and ratepayers would do well to press their local politicians to ensure that anaerobic digestion is considered carefully by their municipal engineers, before alternative waste treatment technologies are promoted.

    Thanks for your marvelous posting! I seriously enjoyed reading it, you’re a great author.
    I’ll make sure to bookmark your blog and may come back.
    I want to encourage you to go on doing
    your great posts, have a nice evening!

    Can I let you know that current Queensland Uni. AWMC research is enhancing the understanding of co-digestion risks and drivers for the benefit of municipal and agri-industries. Experiments are being conducted at laboratory-scale to characterise the degradation properties of different wastes under different process conditions and leading to a comprehensive modal and co-digestion manual. Results are being validated at full-scale with the support of industry partners. I added the link in the url box.

    I always was interested in this subject and still am. So anaerobic co-digestion is simply using more than one different feedstocks so that together they balance each other out, and provide a better methane yield than with just one of the feed materials? Thanks for putting up.

  5. K Andres April 12, 2019 at 9:20 am #

    Awesome potential exists in anaerobic Co-digestion. I am really delighted to read this weblog posts which contains
    lots of helpful facts, and thanks for providing these data.

Praying The Scriptures

James 5:19-20 (If Anyone Wanders)
19 My brothers, if anyone among you wanders from the truth and someone brings him back, 20 let him know that whoever brings back a sinner from his wandering will save his soul from death and will cover a multitude of sins. - James 5:19-20
September 9, 2019
James 5:13-18 (The Prayer Of Faith)
13 Is anyone among you suffering? Let him pray. Is anyone cheerful? Let him sing praise. 14 Is anyone among you sick? Let him call for the elders of the church, and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord. 15 And the prayer of faith will save the one who is sick, and the Lord will raise him up. And if he has committed sins, he will be forgiven. 16 Therefore, confess your sins to one another and pray for one another, that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous person has great power as it is working. 17 Elijah was a man with a nature like ours, and he prayed fervently that it might not rain, and for three years and six months it did not rain on the earth. 18 Then he prayed again, and heaven gave rain, and the earth bore its fruit. - James 5:13-18
September 8, 2019
James 5:9-12 (Do Not Complain Or Swear)
9 Do not grumble against one another, brothers, so that you may not be judged; behold, the Judge is standing at the door. 10 As an example of suffering and patience, brothers, take the prophets who spoke in the name of the Lord. 11 Behold, we consider those blessed who remained steadfast. You have heard of the steadfastness of Job, and you have seen the purpose of the Lord, how the Lord is compassionate and merciful. - James 5:9-12
September 7, 2019
James 5:7-8 (Be Patient)
7 Be patient, therefore, brothers, until the coming of the Lord. See how the farmer waits for the precious fruit of the earth, being patient about it, until it receives the early and the late rains. 8 You also, be patient. Establish your hearts, for the coming of the Lord is at hand. - James 5:7-8
September 6, 2019
James 5:1-6 (Dangers Of Riches)
1 Come now, you rich, weep and howl for the miseries that are coming upon you. 2 Your riches have rotted and your garments are moth-eaten. 3 Your gold and silver have corroded, and their corrosion will be evidence against you and will eat your flesh like fire. You have laid up treasure in the last days. 4 Behold, the wages of the laborers who mowed your fields, which you kept back by fraud, are crying out against you, and the cries of the harvesters have reached the ears of the Lord of hosts. 5 You have lived on the earth in luxury and in self-indulgence. You have fattened your hearts in a day of slaughter. 6 You have condemned and murdered the righteous person. He does not resist you. - James 5:1-6
September 5, 2019
James 4:13-17 (Do Not Boast About Tomorrow)
13 Come now, you who say, “Today or tomorrow we will go into such and such a town and spend a year there and trade and make a profit”— 14 yet you do not know what tomorrow will bring. What is your life? For you are a mist that appears for a little time and then vanishes. 15 Instead you ought to say, “If the Lord wills, we will live and do this or that.” 16 As it is, you boast in your arrogance. All such boasting is evil. 17 So whoever knows the right thing to do and fails to do it, for him it is sin. - James 4:13-17
September 4, 2019
James 4:11-12 (Do Not Speak Evil)
11 Do not speak evil against one another, brothers. The one who speaks against a brother or judges his brother, speaks evil against the law and judges the law. But if you judge the law, you are not a doer of the law but a judge. 12 There is only one lawgiver and judge, he who is able to save and to destroy. But who are you to judge your neighbor? - James 4:11-12
September 3, 2019
James 4:6-10 (Humble Yourself Before God)
6 But he gives more grace. Therefore it says, “God opposes the proud but gives grace to the humble.” 7 Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. 8 Draw near to God, and he will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners, and purify your hearts, you double-minded. 9 Be wretched and mourn and weep. Let your laughter be turned to mourning and your joy to gloom. 10 Humble yourselves before the Lord, and he will exalt you. - James 4:6-10
September 2, 2019
James 4:1-5 (A Friend Of God Or The World)
1 What causes quarrels and what causes fights among you? Is it not this, that your passions are at war within you? 2 You desire and do not have, so you murder. You covet and cannot obtain, so you fight and quarrel. You do not have, because you do not ask. 3 You ask and do not receive, because you ask wrongly, to spend it on your passions. 4 You adulterous people! Do you not know that friendship with the world is enmity with God? Therefore whoever wishes to be a friend of the world makes himself an enemy of God. 5 Or do you suppose it is to no purpose that the Scripture says, “He yearns jealously over the spirit that he has made to dwell in us”? - James 4:1-5
September 1, 2019
James 3:13-18 (Wisdom From Above)
13 Who is wise and understanding among you? By his good conduct let him show his works in the meekness of wisdom. 14 But if you have bitter jealousy and selfish ambition in your hearts, do not boast and be false to the truth. 15 This is not the wisdom that comes down from above, but is earthly, unspiritual, demonic. 16 For where jealousy and selfish ambition exist, there will be disorder and every vile practice. 17 But the wisdom from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, open to reason, full of mercy and good fruits, impartial and sincere. 18 And a harvest of righteousness is sown in peace by those who make peace. - James 3:13-18

James 3:6-12 (Two Ways The Tongue Can Be Used)
6 And the tongue is a fire, a world of unrighteousness. The tongue is set among our members, staining the whole body, setting on fire the entire course of life, and set on fire by hell. 7 For every kind of beast and bird, of reptile and sea creature, can be tamed and has been tamed by mankind, 8 but no human being can tame the tongue. It is a restless evil, full of deadly poison. 9 With it we bless our Lord and Father, and with it we curse people who are made in the likeness of God. 10 From the same mouth come blessing and cursing. My brothers, these things ought not to be so. 11 Does a spring pour forth from the same opening both fresh and salt water? 12 Can a fig tree, my brothers, bear olives, or a grapevine produce figs? Neither can a salt pond yield fresh water. - James 3:6-12
August 30, 2019
James 3:3-5 (The Tongue Is Like A Rudder)
3 If we put bits into the mouths of horses so that they obey us, we guide their whole bodies as well. 4 Look at the ships also: though they are so large and are driven by strong winds, they are guided by a very small rudder wherever the will of the pilot directs. 5 So also the tongue is a small member, yet it boasts of great things. - James 3:3-5
August 29, 2019
James 3:1-2 (We All Struggle With The Tongue)
1 Not many of you should become teachers, my brothers, for you know that we who teach will be judged with greater strictness. 2 For we all stumble in many ways. And if anyone does not stumble in what he says, he is a perfect man, able also to bridle his whole body. - James 3:1-2
August 28, 2019
James 2:19-26 (Combine Works With Your Faith)
19 You believe that God is one; you do well. Even the demons believe—and shudder! 20 Do you want to be shown, you foolish person, that faith apart from works is useless? 21 Was not Abraham our father justified by works when he offered up his son Isaac on the altar? 22 You see that faith was active along with his works, and faith was completed by his works; 23 and the Scripture was fulfilled that says, “Abraham believed God, and it was counted to him as righteousness”—and he was called a friend of God. 24 You see that a person is justified by works and not by faith alone. 25 And in the same way was not also Rahab the prostitute justified by works when she received the messengers and sent them out by another way? 26 For as the body apart from the spirit is dead, so also faith apart from works is dead. - James 2:19-26
August 27, 2019
James 2:14-18 (Talk Less And Do More)
14 What good is it, my brothers, if someone says he has faith but does not have works? Can that faith save him? 15 If a brother or sister is poorly clothed and lacking in daily food, 16 and one of you says to them, “Go in peace, be warmed and filled,” without giving them the things needed for the body, what good is that? 17 So also faith by itself, if it does not have works, is dead. 18 But someone will say, “You have faith and I have works.” Show me your faith apart from your works, and I will show you my faith by my works. - James 2:14-18
August 26, 2019
James 2:8-13 (Love Others Like They Were You)
8 If you really fulfill the royal law according to the Scripture, “You shall love your neighbor as yourself,” you are doing well. 9 But if you show partiality, you are committing sin and are convicted by the law as transgressors. 10 For whoever keeps the whole law but fails in one point has become guilty of all of it. 11 For he who said, “Do not commit adultery,” also said, “Do not murder.” If you do not commit adultery but do murder, you have become a transgressor of the law. 12 So speak and so act as those who are to be judged under the law of liberty. 13 For judgment is without mercy to one who has shown no mercy. Mercy triumphs over judgment. - James 2:8-13
August 25, 2019
James 2:5-7 (Remember Who God Uses)
5 Listen, my beloved brothers, has not God chosen those who are poor in the world to be rich in faith and heirs of the kingdom, which he has promised to those who love him? 6 But you have dishonored the poor man. Are not the rich the ones who oppress you, and the ones who drag you into court? 7 Are they not the ones who blaspheme the honorable name by which you were called? - James 2:5-7
August 24, 2019
James 2:1-4 (Show No Partiality)
1 My brothers, show no partiality as you hold the faith in our Lord Jesus Christ, the Lord of glory. 2 For if a man wearing a gold ring and fine clothing comes into your assembly, and a poor man in shabby clothing also comes in, 3 and if you pay attention to the one who wears the fine clothing and say, “You sit here in a good place,” while you say to the poor man, “You stand over there,” or, “Sit down at my feet,” 4 have you not then made distinctions among yourselves and become judges with evil thoughts? - James 2:1-4
August 23, 2019
James 1:26-27 (The Definition Of Pure Religion)
26 If anyone thinks he is religious and does not bridle his tongue but deceives his heart, this person’s religion is worthless. 27 Religion that is pure and undefiled before God the Father is this: to visit orphans and widows in their affliction, and to keep oneself unstained from the world. - James 1:26-27
August 22, 2019
James 1:22-25 (Be A Doer)
22 But be doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves. 23 For if anyone is a hearer of the word and not a doer, he is like a man who looks intently at his natural face in a mirror. 24 For he looks at himself and goes away and at once forgets what he was like. 25 But the one who looks into the perfect law, the law of liberty, and perseveres, being no hearer who forgets but a doer who acts, he will be blessed in his doing. - James 1:22-25
August 21, 2019
James 1:19-21 (Listen More, Talk Less)
19 Know this, my beloved brothers: let every person be quick to hear, slow to speak, slow to anger; 20 for the anger of man does not produce the righteousness of God. 21 Therefore put away all filthiness and rampant wickedness and receive with meekness the implanted word, which is able to save your souls. - James 1:19-21
August 20, 2019
James 1:16-18 (Everything Good Comes From Above)
16 Do not be deceived, my beloved brothers. 17 Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no variation or shadow due to change. 18 Of his own will he brought us forth by the word of truth, that we should be a kind of firstfruits of his creatures. - James 1:16-18
August 19, 2019
James 1:12-15 (Remaining Steadfast Under Examination)
12 Blessed is the man who remains steadfast under trial, for when he has stood the test he will receive the crown of life, which God has promised to those who love him. 13 Let no one say when he is tempted, “I am being tempted by God,” for God cannot be tempted with evil, and he himself tempts no one. 14 But each person is tempted when he is lured and enticed by his own desire. 15 Then desire when it has conceived gives birth to sin, and sin when it is fully grown brings forth death. - James 1:12-15
August 18, 2019
James 1:9-11 (A Contrast Between The Rich And Poor)
9 Let the lowly brother boast in his exaltation, 10 and the rich in his humiliation, because like a flower of the grass he will pass away. 11 For the sun rises with its scorching heat and withers the grass; its flower falls, and its beauty perishes. So also will the rich man fade away in the midst of his pursuits. - James 1:9-11
August 17, 2019
James 1:5-8 (What You Can Do If You Lack Wisdom)
5 If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask God, who gives generously to all without reproach, and it will be given him. 6 But let him ask in faith, with no doubting, for the one who doubts is like a wave of the sea that is driven and tossed by the wind. 7 For that person must not suppose that he will receive anything from the Lord; 8 he is a double-minded man, unstable in all his ways. - James 1:5-8
August 16, 2019
James 1:4 (Let Endurance Have Its Perfect Work)
And let steadfastness have its full effect, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking in nothing. - James 1:4
August 15, 2019
James 1:2-3 (Count Trials As Joy)
2 Count it all joy, my brothers, when you meet trials of various kinds, 3 for you know that the testing of your faith produces steadfastness. 4 And let steadfastness have its full effect, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking in nothing. - James 1:2-3
August 14, 2019
James 1:1 (Freedom Found In Slavery)
James, a servant of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ, To the twelve tribes in the Dispersion: Greetings. - James 1:1

The monument includes the remains of Mowbray Cross, a medieval standing cross
restored in the 19th century, situated on Haxey village green.
The base of the cross takes the form of a socket stone 0.8m square in section

partly buried and now stands approximately 0.25m above ground level.
The shaft of the cross, which was restored in the 19th century, measures 0.25m
square in section at the base with champfered corners rising in octagonal
section to a height of 2.5m. A mid panel on its east side bears painted relief
carvings of a shield with the Mowbray Arms: a lion rampant. The Mowbrays were
the medieval lords of Haxey Manor. The shaft terminates in a 19th century cap.
The overall height of the cross is approximately 2.75m.
The cross is Listed Grade II.
Modern paved surfaces to pavements and roads are excluded from the scheduling,

Reasons for Scheduling

A standing cross is a free standing upright structure, usually of stone,
mostly erected during the medieval period (mid 10th to mid 16th centuries AD).
Standing crosses served a variety of functions. In churchyards they served as
stations for outdoor processions, particularly in the observance of Palm
Sunday. Elsewhere, standing crosses were used within settlements as places for
preaching, public proclamation and penance, as well as defining rights of
sanctuary. Standing crosses were also employed to mark boundaries between
parishes, property, or settlements. A few crosses were erected to commemorate
battles. Some crosses were linked to particular saints, whose support and
protection their presence would have helped to invoke. Crosses in market
places may have helped to validate transactions. After the Reformation, some
crosses continued in use as foci for municipal or borough ceremonies, for
example as places for official proclamations and announcements; some were the
scenes of games or recreational activity.
Standing crosses were distributed throughout England and are thought to have
numbered in excess of 12,000. However, their survival since the Reformation
has been variable, being much affected by local conditions, attitudes and
religious sentiment. In particular, many cross-heads were destroyed by
iconoclasts during the 16th and 17th centuries. Less than 2,000 medieval
standing crosses, with or without cross-heads, are now thought to exist. The
oldest and most basic form of standing cross is the monolith, a stone shaft
often set directly in the ground without a base. The most common form is the
stepped cross, in which the shaft is set in a socket stone and raised upon a
flight of steps; this type of cross remained current from the 11th to 12th
centuries until after the Reformation. Where the cross-head survives it may
take a variety of forms, from a lantern-like structure to a crucifix; the more
elaborate examples date from the 15th century. Much less common than stepped
crosses are spire-shaped crosses, often composed of three or four receding
stages with elaborate architectural decoration and/or sculptured figures; the
most famous of these include the Eleanor crosses, erected by Edward I at the
stopping places of the funeral cortege of his wife, who died in 1290. Also
uncommon are the preaching crosses which were built in public places from the
13th century, typically in the cemeteries of religious communities and
cathedrals, market places and wide thoroughfares; they include a stepped base,
buttresses supporting a vaulted canopy, in turn carrying either a shaft and
head or a pinnacled spire. Standing crosses contribute significantly to our
understanding of medieval customs, both secular and religious, and to our
knowledge of medieval parishes and settlement patterns. All crosses which
survive as standing monuments, especially those which stand in or near their
original location, are considered worthy of protection.

The cross is thought to be in its original position, and is believed to be on
the site of the village stocks. Although the head of the cross is modern, the
remainder is of medieval date and has base relief carvings relating it to the
medieval Lords of the Manor of Haxey - the Mowbrays. The cross is considered
to be a good example of its kind, which survives in good condition.

Number Speaker Giveaway

Android Giveaway of the Day - Number Speaker

This app will quickly and easily read numbers and speak them out for you aloud.
User Rating: 0 (0%) 0 (0%) Lascia un commento

Questo giveaway è scaduto. Number Speaker è adesso regolarmente disponibile.

This app will quickly and easily read numbers and speak them out for you aloud - a great help for the partially sighted or those of us who don't happen to have their reading glasses to hand.
Unlike other scanning apps, this one runs entirely on your Android device without needing a network, so there are NO data charges or network delays whatsoever, and the numbers you want to read are not uploaded to any server.
Use Number Speaker to take the hassle out of numbers by scanning them with a single finger tap - use it on business cards, directories, contact details in leaflets or adverts, or anything that has the number you want without the need to decipher small text or type lots of digits. It also works on other kinds of number you may need to note down quickly, such as product codes, serial numbers, zip codes, and so on.
Save time and avoid hassle by reading and recognising numbers automatically. With Number Speaker you no longer have to read, type in, write down or remember long phone numbers - simply use the camera on your Android device to quickly scan the number you want, and Number Speaker will recognise the digits for you automatically, accurately, and within seconds. You can then phone that number by simply tapping it with your finger, or add it to your contacts, or copy and paste it into another application or document.

(1) Hold your Android device over the text with the number you want to scan. Position it such that the number (and nothing else) appears in Number Speaker's focussing window. If necessary, you can change the size of the focussing window by moving the boxes in its corners.
(2) If possible, try to ensure the number is in focus. On most devices Number Speaker will adjust the focus automatically (auto-focus), so usually you just need to wait a second or two and the number will be in focus automatically. Scanning also works much better when there is good lighting.
(3) Tap the camera icon to take a picture of the number. Number Speaker will analyse the image you took and recognise, display, and speak out aloud the number within a few seconds. You can then tap the number to add it to your contacts, make a phone call, or copy it into another application.
(4) Recognition works best on numbers written in large clear fonts with good contrast (i.e. dark numbers on light background or vice versa). If there was a problem with the recognition, then simply try again. Number Speaker is designed for printed numbers, although clear handwritten numbers (not joined-up) are also often recognised.
(5) To take a new image, simply press the 'back' button on your Android device.

Kristin Ess Rose Gold Temporary Tint Review

In Style + Beauty by Hannah GieroskyLeave a Comment

kristin ess rose gold temporary tint review

As I mentioned in our Spring Fashion Wishlist, I’ve had my eye on the Rose Gold Temporary Tint from Kristin Ess for spring. What better way to celebrate sunshine and rosé season than with rose gold hair? As a preemptive strike (and in the name of journalism, obviously) I recently gave the hair tint a spin. So, here’s my Kristin Ess Rose Gold Temporary Tint review, complete with terrible bathroom selfies. Let’s get into it.

Let’s start with a before picture. My hair is naturally dark blonde/light brown, but I got the ends lightened almost a year ago. For the sake of this Kristin Ess Rose Gold Temporary Tint review, I decided to target the tint on my lightened ends.

kristin ess rose gold temporary tint review before

A makeup-free, messy-haired before

My first go around, I followed the directions exactly: Shampoo hair, spray on tint, sit for a few minutes, then rinse and condition as usual. Spraying the tint onto soaking wet hair prevents a lot of the tint from absorbing, as you can see in my after picture below.

kristin ess rose gold temporary tint review after

Giving my lack of results the side eye

Look at that dramatic transformation! Just kidding, the color barely took. The directions suggest applying to towel-dried hair for a more intense tint, so I tried that a few days later.

First, I shampooed my hair as usual. Then I wrapped it up in a towel for about 15 minutes, which was the perfect time to do a face mask as well. Then I hopped back in the shower, sprayed on the tint, and waited a few minutes before rinsing it out. I didn’t condition this time. Here’s what the results looked like after the second attempt:

kristin ess rose gold temporary tint review after 2

It’s kind of pink!

kristin ess rose gold temporary tint review after 3

This side took the color a bit better

Not too bad! The color is definitely more prominent when applied to drier hair. It’s definitely a subtle color, but considering it’s designed to be temporary and wash out after a few shampoos, it’s about what I expected.

Kristin Ess Rose Gold Temporary Tint Review Thoughts

  • I really like the idea of a fun, temporary color being somewhat easy to achieve. It’s certainly not as messy or time-consuming as an at-home dye job, but the fact that you need to dry your hair a bit before applying the tint makes it more complicated than I was hoping.
  • It’s definitely still a messy process. Absolutely only apply the tint in your shower because it will go EVERYWHERE. My shower liner is slightly pink despite being rinsed immediately after the tint was applied.
  • Because it’s an in-shower application, I found it hard to apply evenly. Without a mirror, it’s tough to figure out where color has been applied and where it hasn’t, leading to my slightly patchy finished product. I will say though that I think it might have been more even had I been going for an all-over color instead of just the ends, so the result could just be user error.
  • It smells really good! Our girl Kristin knows what she’s doing when it comes to her hair products.

I’m excited to try this again throughout the spring and summer. I think practice will make perfect as far as application goes, and I’m looking forward to trying out different color intensities. If you’re looking to try out a fun hair color that’s still subtle and not much of a commitment, then I think this is a good product for you.

Have you tried Kristin Ess’ Rose Gold Temporary Tint? Or do you have another temporary hair color to recommend? Let me know what you’re trying out in the comments!

When we aren’t enough

As this school year begins, my mind wandered back to another first school year more than half of a lifetime ago. It was my sophomore year in high school, and I had just transferred to a new school—an all-girls Catholic school where the only people I knew were a few neighbors who were more acquaintancesContinue reading “When we aren’t enough”

One thing that is very important to our church is Missions! We strive to be a mission minded church. We give a monthly offering to the Cooperative Program, and also give to various offerings throughout the year including the Lottie Moon Christmas offering, the Annie Armstrong Easter offering, and the Rheubin L South state missions offering.   We have supported numerous missionaries through the years both directly and through various programs. We give each month to the FreeWay Foundation and support our local camps with a portion of our tithes and offerings.  We also strive to keep a strong local missions focus.

 Vacation Bible School

VBS has always been a big part of our church and our outreach activities. We have had a Vacation Bible School every year since our church began.  Each year we strive to show God’s love to the children in our community and share Jesus with them. This is always an exciting week at the church. Each year we collect a missions offering that goes directly to a missions cause. Through the years several lives have been changed and many children have come to know Christ as their Savior through Vacation Bible School. It still remains as one of the greatest outreach events we have.

High School Senior Banquet

Before graduation in the spring, our church invites all the seniors, and a guest, to the church fellowship hall for a banquet. School administrators and class sponsors are also invited. A big meal is served and youth from the church dress up nice to be waiters and waitresses for the evening. Members of the church dish up some hilariously entertaining skits and songs which are always a big hit and door prizes are given away throughout the banquet. The evening draws to a close with a presentation of the gospel and a gift of a New Testament to each graduate. What an awesome opportunity to share Christ with these young adults!

Car Show

The Men’s Brotherhood held their first Car Show during Freedom Fest in 2000.  This event grows each year and has brought hundreds, if not thousands, of visitors to the church.  Car owners come from miles around for the free event where winners are selected by People’s Choice. All those who come to look at the classic cars and trucks get to vote for their favorites.  The winners all receive a plaque and all contestants receive a dash plaque.  Every registered guest gets a bag of goodies that always includes a New Testament and other evangelistic literature. Hundreds of door prizes are given away as the men grill free hamburgers and hot dogs for anyone who wants one. The Men’s Brotherhood Car Show has become a major outreach effort for the church each year.  Make sure to attend this fall!!!

Youth Ranch

Each year our church adopts a house at Valley Springs Youth Ranch.  The ladies go on a shopping trip rounding up all kinds of gifts for our adopted house, including necessities like socks, as well as toys and games.  A treat bag with candy bars, apples, oranges, sodas, etc. are prepared for every child at the ranch.  A large group from the church delivers the gifts to our adopted house and then heads to the ranch cafeteria for a Christmas program which includes Christmas songs and a presentation of the gospel.  The last few years have seen several of the youth at the ranch make a profession of faith in Jesus as their Lord and Savior.  What a privilege to minister to these kids at Christmas time and such a blessing from God as He works in their hearts and lives. Starting this year, the church will be visiting the Youth Ranch several times throughout the year to bring encouragement, guidance and a message to those who have found themselves living there.

Selling your Home on a Budget.

Like agent fees and commissions, the cost to market and advertise your property is one of the most disputed ones in property. There are the vendors who want a huge photographic signboard, the most prominent digital advertising, newspaper advertising, and colour brochures.  Then there are those who’d rather spend as little as possible on marketing. Who is right?  Read on if you’re wanting to sell your home on a budget!

There is no one-size-fits all approach and this is where your Agent can give the best advice.

The only certain thing is that, for the sale of your home to be successful, you’ll need to factor marketing and advertising into your budget.  Make sure you are aware of the costs whether they be up-front costs or whether they are included in the overall agent’s fees and commission at the end of the sale.

For now, though, we’re just going to look at the typical marketing costs you can expect when preparing your house for sale.

They really are an essential element of selling.  Never underestimate the value of a signboard in front of your home.

Whether or not you need colour photography though, can depend on whether there is a special feature you think may draw the buyer through the front door.  If you are on a tight budget, it may be an unnecessary expense as there will likely be photographs added to the common on-line listing sites.

Online advertising

online portals

There is no doubt that on-line listings have become one of the most valuable assets when selling real estate.  Unlike newspaper advertising which is static and limited in nature, an internet listing can be edited and shaped at any point to draw more attention to it.  It is convenient and at the fingertips of potential buyers at any time of day or night.  Even those who have no plans to sell or buy, are drawn to this form of media, and in turn it can prompt them pass on information to friends and relatives, or even consider a purchase themselves.

Newspaper Display Ads

Print advertising, however, can also offer the benefit of reaching passive buyers who may not be actively looking to buy property immediately, but become interested when they see a well-presented property listing while browsing a magazine or newspaper.  This is often the case when print advertising is targeted at regional and community publications.  Also consider the “downsizer” demographic, as this is an audience who tend to spend less time online.

Finally, it’s important not to dismiss the impact of print flyers, which can be used for highly localised marketing campaigns such as letterbox drops, and to promote to buyers at inspection.

Marketing Costs

It is possible to spend 1 percent of your home’s market value on marketing and advertising. Property that is in high demand may get away with spending half that, You may be fortunate enough to have an ‘off-market’ sale, where your agent contacts buyers from their database, particularly if there has been a sale in your complex or area, as there could be potential buyers who missed out.

Have your agent fully explain what mix they will use and why they recommend a particular marketing strategy and ensure you are not spending more than is required.

Getting the House Ready to Sell

You will need to ask the question:

“Who are we selling to, who is likely to be our target market?”

Whether the house is a family home, a renovator or an inner city dwelling which would appeal to singles or couples, will likely determine what costs are required to stage the home.  If the house is likely to be a knock-down, it will be unnecessary to waste money on renovations.  Consult your trusted agent here for advice.

Other Costs

Of course you should be fully aware of the costs that your agent will charge, whether or not they sell your property, or if it going to auction – the legal fees, bank charges, borrowing costs for the purchase of a new property and statutory costs such as stamp duties and transfer fees.

Pick a saint

September 5, 2016

It’s been a while since anything has annoyed me enough to get me writing. Congratulations, Vatican. You got the job done.

Nineteen years ago two world famous, much loved women died within days of one another.

The first to go was a 36-year-old divorced princess.

The second was an 87-year-old misogynistic religious fanatic who spread and wallowed in misery.

Christopher Hitchens (no stranger to controversy) took a lot of stick for his 1997 book, The Missionary Position, in which he said: “Mother Teresa was not a friend of the poor. She was a friend of poverty. She said that suffering was a gift from God. She spent her life opposing the only known cure for poverty, which is the empowerment of women and the emancipation of them from a livestock version of compulsory reproduction.”

This is what Mother Teresa had to say about abortion in her 1979 Nobel Peace Prize acceptance speech: “Peace is threatened by abortion. Today, abortion is the worst evil and the greatest enemy of peace… because if a mother can kill her own child, what will prevent us from killing ourselves, or one another? Nothing.”

While the Catholic gnome was being flown around on private jets to be feted by (and accept large donations from) dictators and shady businessmen, the children in her orphanages lived in squalor.

Hitchens dubbed her “Hell’s Angel” and I have no argument with that description.

A year after Mother Teresa won the Nobel Prize, a pretty, nineteen-year-old virgin was chosen to become the bride of Charles, Prince of Wales.

Diana Spencer (as was) may not have been the sharpest tool in the shed, but she did have compassion. Something Mother Teresa notably lacked.

In 1987, when an HIV diagnosis was still a painful death sentence and some people (including, no doubt, Mother Teresa) viewed the disease as God’s punishment for homosexuality, Princess Diana went to an East London hospital and held the hand (without gloves! screamed the tabloids) of a skeletal HIV patient.

Not long afterwards she said: “HIV does not make people dangerous to know, so you can shake their hands and give them a hug. Heaven knows they need it.”

It was actually an incredibly brave thing for a member of the House of Windsor to do and the way in which attitudes towards HIV/AIDS and its victims changed almost overnight was more miraculous than the dubious ‘miracles’ attributed to the gnome.

When Diana died it struck me as a great pity, because she was a woman who was just hitting her stride. Freed of the shackles of royal protocol, she was putting her celebrity status to good use.

Few, for example, could fail to acknowledge the role her involvement played in the creation of the Mine Ban Treaty (in full: the Convention on the Prohibition of the Use, Stockpiling, Production and Transfer of Anti-Personnel Mines and on Their Destruction) and the awarding of the 1997 Nobel Peace Prize to the International Campaign to Ban Land Mines. (Only her death prevented the prize being awarded to Diana herself.)

I don’t know about sanctification, but I do think Diana was a better human being than Mother Teresa. (And I’m not saying Diana was a great human being.)

Since 2013 I have, on more than one occasion, found myself asking: is the Pope Catholic? Yesterday he proved beyond doubt that he is.

Hell’s Angel is now a saint.

Pass the sick bag.

One Fatal Footstep

One Fatal Footstep

On this road where nobody else travels

Nameless, I walk in dreams

My words are senseless

My turbulent mind

Longing for this night to pass

Low but constant

Burns the flame of love

Lying between flesh and bone

Magnificent days

Magnify my pain

Love is a blind path

Turning into a labyrinth

A lovely blossom trail

Where my dream leads me forward

My eyes open to the light

I am naked in the rain

And my soul bathes

In the blue mirror

Of your eyes

Oh how I fell

And oh, how far it seems

For the earth to reach to the sky

This floating world

These shores where dark waves beat

Only the wind is sighing by

I can hear a leaf

Falling on the ground

One fatal footstep

One small candle

One tragic minute

Then only ashes

Scattering in the winds

Only heartbeats short of eternity

Only in my dreams

 Can I follow you

And only my love

© Ann Bagnall 2013.

Five Scottish Tales of Terror

I shall sit shuddering and weeping in my chair, or continue, with the most strained and fearstruck ecstasy of listening, to pace up and down this room and give ear to every sound of menace… From the haunting ballads of the borderlands to the urban gothic of Victorian fiction, Scottish literature has long demonstrated a […]

    Well, old timer, I still think about the HAPPY DAYS ARE HERE AGAIN.  And ONCE THERE WAS A LITTLE OLD RAM (may be it was called HIGH HOPES).  But now, with our stimulus checks in the mail, I'm singing PENNIES FROM HEAVEN.  Do you realize the old songs actually had good or fun lyrics, they actually rhymed, and you could sing them to your mom with out dropping a F bomb? Dream Lover was a happy and hopeful song.  But one of my favorites is still DOWN BY THE OLD MILL STREAM.

    How about "There'll be bluebirds over the white cliffs of Dover" Vera Lynn.  Another "Sing as you go and let the world go by" Gracie Fields.  Lastly (though I know many more) "The Song of the Kettle"  Peter Dawson.  These all go back farther than I go back but Mum and Dad had these on huge 78 rpm records and I played them very often on their radiogram.

    I'm with Bulldog. I can name songs and sing the lyrics from songs as far back as in the 40's and some even farther back than that. I bought a pack of Rock and Roll from the 50's on CD's at a garage sale two years ago and almost drove my wife nuts singing with them on the car radio! I even remember some of the songs from the CD's that I hadn't thought of for over 60 years and sang along with them as if they were being sung today!. Long live Rock and Roll.

    I can not only name hundreds of rock 'n roll and doo-wop songs from the 1950's, I can sing the lyrics that I have in my memory.

    "Long live rock 'n roll

    The feelin' is there body and soul."

    "I don't care what people say,

    Rock n' roll is here to stay."

    I was a classical musician. I remember the name (titles) of many songs and arias. I've had a life long hobby of folk, music and protest songs. I remember a large number of these ditties too. Some even turned up as "popular" during the folk music era of the 60s and 70s.

The Beauty's Dawn of the Climbing Aspiration-Heart

Thomas Bungalow, pt 2: Return from the higher worlds

Thomas Bungalow held back from glancing at the Desert Survival Handbook with a growing sense of calm.
He hadn’t needed any instruction when on earth as pertaining to the life he had been living; in fact, now that he was without body he was enjoying it more than ever.
Who knew the freedom he had been so desperately searching for could be felt and discovered so easily?
Certainly not Mrs. Bungalow, Thomas’ wife, who now spent Saturday nights “rolling in” cash at the bingo-roller-disco in Las Vegas. She hadn’t been so liberated in years!

“True, human doubts are dangerous.
Yet we don’t have to worry because our divine faith is most courageous.”
-Sri Chinmoy
That was the message he had seen inscribed on the restroom wall at the last rest stop. Now he had been driving for over 48 hours nonstop, the kind of driving you’d normally get arrested for.
The Nissan tires gripped the dusty ground, sending up billowy clouds like the ominous wake of an “iron jaws” as the nativespeople called contraptions such as these in these parts.
That’s when he saw it: a little girl on the horizon, floating down from the sky. She was accompanied by flowers and birds, and the whole image was like some scene out of a fairytale children’s story.
“Howdy,” he said when she had come to a halt, stopping his car and stepping out to greet her.
“Continue about your business,” she snapped with the air of one conducting a survey. In no time she had made him a complete slave to Her will.
“Yes Master,” he said slovenly, and let her into his vehicle.
“You don’t need this anymore,” She said, tossing the Desert Survival Handbook and a couple of spicy cheetos from the interior’s floor.
“You will return to your world and begin to manifest,” she instructed.

“BINGO!” Mrs. Bungalow shouted, a piece of blue whitening-gum gleaming between her teeth.
“That will teach you to gamble away your grandchildren’s college fund!” She shouted at the elderly retired couple now seated across from her at the table.
“We have a winner!” Announced Elvis, dominating the stage with his impersonation of a timeless personality.
Mrs. Bungalow recognized that voice. At first she couldn’t place where. But her heart knew.
“THOMAS!” She screamed, knocking over the retired couple and skating straight up to the stage where she was reunited with her spouse after seven years in the higher world.

We're not even talking about the 2016 running of the 24-hour endurance race. No Ford throws it all the way back to 1966 for its new 2017 Ford GT '66 Heritage Edition. The black-and-silver livery recalls the GT40 Mark II driven by Bruce McLaren and Chris Amon back in 1966. That year the No. 2 car came in first place followed by the No. 1 GT40 of Ken Miles and Denis Hulme and the No. 5 GT40 driven by Ronnie Bucknum and Dick Hutcherson. Each '66 Heritage Edition will wear Shadow Black exterior paint either matte or gloss finish with silver stripes and Frozen White No. 2 graphics on the hood and doors. The 20-inch forged aluminum wheels are done up in a gold satin finish. Ebony leather covers the carbon fiber seats inside with gold accents on the instrument panel seat X-brace and shift paddles. Blue seatbelts round out the homage to the 1966 racecar. Ford says the '66 Heritage Edition will be sold in 2017 only which makes sense. We wouldn't bet against similar special-edition offerings in 2018 '19 and '20 1966 kicked off four straight victories for Ford at Le Mans but if you like this specific livery you'd better get in line now. See for yourself in our high-res image gallery up top and feel free to read more in the press release below.

June 27 2016 The all-new 2017 Ford GT will be available in a limited-edition Heritage theme honoring the GT40 Mark II driven to victory by Bruce McLaren and Chris Amon at Le Mans in 1966 part of the historic 1-2-3 Ford GT sweep. The car will feature unique interior and exterior color themes and an exclusive wheel finish. "Celebrating the anniversary of Ford's historic victories at Le Mans has always been a part of the return of the Ford GT" said Raj Nair Ford executive vice president product development and chief technical officer. "The 2017 Ford GT '66 Heritage Edition is a stunning tribute to the car that kicked off Ford's string of Le Mans victories in 1966." The Ford GT '66 Heritage Edition features a Shadow Black exterior in either gloss or matte finish with silver stripes and exposed carbon fiber package. The car sports Frozen White #2 hood and door graphics and 20-inch one-piece forged aluminum wheels in a gold satin clearcoat with black lug nuts. The interior of the limited edition model wraps the Ford GT carbon-fiber seats in Ebony leather with pillowed inserts and plow-through stitching and the seats' head restraints and the steering wheel are debossed with the Ford GT logo. The instrument panel pillars and headliner also features an Ebony-leather wrap with gold appliqués on the instrument panel the seat's X-brace and shift paddles. Like the 1966 race car the steering wheel is leather wrapped with seat belts featuring a unique blue webbing. Rounding out the modifications to the Ford GT '66 Heritage Edition are a unique serialized identification plate the #2 interior door graphic and exposed matte carbon fiber door sills air register pods and center console. Garen Nicoghosian exterior design manager for the car says the team set out to highlight where it all started with the Ford GT. "While the looks are distinctly based on the GT40 Mark II race car" he says "we've accentuated new styling cues to provide a modern interpretation." The Ford GT '66 Heritage Edition can be viewed at FordGT.com using the configuration tool. Limited quantities will be available for the 2017 model year only.

per·cep·tion /pərˈsepSHən/

The ability to see, hear, or become aware of something through the senses.

The state of being or process of becoming aware of something in such a way.

A few weeks ago, I found myself walking the dog in Prospect Park during a cold snap of minus six degrees Celsius, whilst getting over food poisoning, battling the flu, dealing with entering my seventh month of pregnancy and all the while… trying to dodge the rangers who might ticket me for having the dog off the lead after 9am.

Words to the effect of ‘What the hell am I doing in this godforsaken place anyway?’ ran through my then negative mind at a rapid pace, and didn’t subside. This stayed with me for several days. I was ready to pack up and leave for warmer, more friendly shores. I miss you Australia.

Then….some magical things began to happen.

A friend sent me an article they thought I may find interesting, and it was as though someone had turned on a light.
It was an interview with Sharon Beesley, writer and author of blog NYC Taught Me, and had been published on SayDaily. Her wonderful point of view of a city offering many challenges was an inspiration to me, especially as I  had arrived as a newby to NY, just like her.

Her interview covers some of NYC’s many highlights that I had begun to overlook in my bleakness. You can get anything and everything delivered, there is always something to do in one of the many museums, galleries and creative spaces all over the five boroughs. Pretty much everywhere is child friendly. It made me open my eyes and my mind.

A few days later, I was in Kentucky working on a job, and I unexpectedly passed an HSBC ad campaign that has always caught my eye in the airports in London. I was so surprised to see it in Louisville; it was another little moment of synchronicity and I lapped it up. It demonstrates in many of its images; one person’s pain may be another’s pleasure… for example things like marmite, chilli… or skydiving… or, if it were my household.. ballet… and The Vicar of Dibley.

Once my husband came back from his overseas trip, and I finally managed to fight all the illness… I started to see a little more clearly. The sun began to poke through the clouds, I realised that my previous negativity wasn’t all about where I was or what I was doing, but it was the way I was looking at it.

I needed to embrace the cold, the snow and all the things I had missed about the Northern Hemisphere for so many years.

My daily work as a stylist is all about creating an image that I hope will be pleasing to the eye; but whose eye? What I believe to be simply gorgeous may be really hideous to someone else. This is what I love about art, photography and the image – it’s all subjective.

How we perceive something may depend very much upon the mood we are in, the way we are looking at it, and many other uncontrollable things about the environment around us.

We are now in another cold snap and I’m trying to enjoy it for what it is – crisp white snow.. kids sledding, warm cosy cups of hot tea and Tim Tams whilst grabbing the slivers of afternoon sunlight through the shutters. Bliss.

AK thought for the day, keep an open mind, an open heart and next time you feel in an awfully glum mood like I did… see if you can look at it with brand new eyes. If that fails.. eat some chocolate.

    What a brilliant post. I definitely feel like this from time to time, a downside to being a transplant from other shores. Change of scenery needed? Come Upstate!!

    Have you found a source of stateside Tim Tams? If not I’ll send over a care package. Love the AK perspective piece – so true; still need that approach even if the sun is shining on a warm day.

    • Ha – no they came from down under!! Australian care packages gladly welcomed at Appleketchup HQ, especially if they also contain Lucas Paw Paw and copies of Inside Out!
