#Cromwell 125

[motocrunch]

Retronauts will be tempted by the classically styled Cromwell 125 – Image: Brixton Motorcycles

The Cromwell’s single-cylinder, four-stroke engine (which is still air-cooled) offers a relatively torquey output for a 125 with 9.7 Nm @ 6,500 rpm.

Riders leaning towards the total retronaut look will likely consider the Cromwell 125 in Moss Green. This colourway with its brown leather seat and chrome components looks to have been transported from the past.

Things Hriob is No Longer Allowed to Do, Revised Edition - Part Quarte

#121 I am a Master of Conceptual and Elemental Magics, especially the Natural elements such as Wind, Lightning, Earth, Wood, and Water. However, no matter how ‘natural’ their existence may be, I cannot cast ‘Bear’ and it is not an element, and no amount of arguing, evidence, or demonstrations will change this.

#122 When courting certain individuals cough cough Sacara cough I will remember the following; “Using Protection” means the proper use of contraceptives or barriers during coitus, NOT using wards or other magical means of surviving close proximity to individuals whose mere existence provides a serious hazard to my health.

#123 Just because it is one of the few things that CAN still affect me given my supernatural constitution, and just because she is my friend, does not mean I am allowed to occasionally use Shylow-Venom as anti-anxiety medication a recreational drug for ANY reason on my own person or anyone else’s.

#124 When engaging in Small Talk with Lord Alexander, I am to respect the presence and personal safety of his Steward, Sir Cromwell, by politely avoiding use of the following terms and turns-of-phrase: ‘Splitting Hares’, ‘Hot Crossed Buns’, ‘Hare-Rasing’, ‘Hare Removal’, ‘Careful Hop-Timism’, ‘Bad Hare Day’, ‘Hoppily Ever After’, ‘I’m all Ears’, ‘Hare Conditioning’, and any other hilarious bad puns revolving around Lagomorphs in general. Upon further review, Bonnie Kalsang is to be given the extended benefits of this ruling.

#125 I shall remember that ‘Tuning’ is for Musical Instruments, ‘Attenuation’ is for Spiritual and Mystical aspects and machinations, and ‘Vibe Checks’ are for violently percussive maintenance on other people. Just because they SOUND like they’re the same thing doesn’t mean they ARE the same thing.

#126 If I am ever to host a ‘Movie Night’ with my friends/associates/subordinates/rivals/sworn enemies, I will avoid playing the following films for various reasons: Kill Bill, Repo: The Genetic Opera, Shrek 3, Saving Private Ryan, and any historical fiction "i may have been present for when it happened".

#127 I am forever forbidden from doing anything if I am preceding the action(s) in question with any variation of the phrase ‘Hey ___, Watch This!’

#128 I am forever forbidden from officiating Weddings Funerals Birthday Celebrations Coming-Of-Age-Ceremonies Duels Archery Contests Eating Contests Battle Royales Anything.

#129 I am a self-reincarnating Avatar of Life. I, at best, have an understanding with, and at worst, trying relationships with Entities that deeply connect to or convey Death as a Concept. This means that I need to maintain my moral superiority as best I can, which in turn means I should avoid conflict with them… and therefore not try to prank or annoy them.

#130 I am not the Patron Saint of Oktoberfest, no matter how much I wish to be.

#131 I am not allowed to visit Australia, nor am I to confuse it for Austria, be it to mess with other people or try and get around this ruling.

#132 I am forever barred from entering an IKEA store, and am forbidden from chanting backwards in Swedish in any language to assemble disassemble reconfigure rearrange manipulate IKEA-brand any furniture in any way.

#133 I am forever barred from teaching any variety of ‘Shop Class’.

#134 I am forever barred from leading field trips guided tours any sort of group of people for any reason through the following locations: Zoos, Museums, Government Buildings, Anarchist Buildings, Aquariums, Shopping Malls, Alternate Timelines, Alien Planets, Pocket Dimensions, Dimensional Nexus Points, Nuclear Reactors, Industrial Plants, and anything owned by a ‘rival’, ‘nemesis’, ‘adversary’, or any other hostile group or individual.

#135 I am not allowed to appropriate terminology research papers documents artifacts entities employees architecture ANYTHING from the SCP Foundation without due credit at all.

#136 Just because I am now able to transform into certain animals at will, does not mean I get to abuse the ability. This extends to bans against the following: eating my own paperwork and blaming ‘the dog’ on it, attempting to use ‘puppy-dog-eyes’ as a form of negotiation, massively decreasing the local wildlife population single-handedly, and leaving dog hair/fur in unpleasant locations as a petty form of revenge.

#137 I am forevermore banned from playing around with wax, especially heated. This is for my own safety and well-being more than any other reason.

#138 I am not allowed to start my own cult, religion, club, non-profit-organization, or any other form of organized group for any reason, least of all because I need an excuse to change any sort of government-issued id photo.

#139 I am an accomplished Arbormancer, capable of taking living trees of all kinds and fashioning them harmlessly into furnishings or tools, especially magical staves. I am Not, however, allowed to threaten sentient tree-based creatures such as demons, ents, and the like with transformation into such items, nor demonstrate my ability to do so.

#140 Just because some previously-incorporeal people enjoyed my gift of customized living human bodies for them to possess and inhabit, does not mean that Everyone will appreciate such a gift to the same degree. I am not to begin creating such vessels for those I know unless they specifically ask me to, no matter how convenient or helpful I think I am being.

#141 I am forevermore barred from following the ‘advice’ of the maxim ‘Tis better to beg forgiveness than to ask permission’, given that I have by now empirically proven it wrong.

#142 Just because I am a powerful and talented Oathkeeper for pacts and magical deals of all kinds, does not mean I can try and negotiate with children, especially those I am supposed to be babysitting.

#143 No matter how powerful and talented I am with Wood-based, Wind-based, and Ink-based magic, I am not allowed to make magically empowered paper planes and throw them into windstorms of any kind or origin. Not even if the kids ask nicely.

#144 I understand that, given my pact with the Worldspirit Gaia, I am often pulled to act as an emergency agent of their will to stop catastrophic incidents. I understand that, more often than not, those times when a single person is behind the danger, it is someone of necromantic alignment, skills, powers, or so on. Despite this, I am not to complain to them as I try to stop and/or slay them that they remind me of my ex-fiance, no matter how close, depressing, or infuriating the resemblance may be.

#145 I am forever banned from turning any portion of the Halls of the Mountain King into a Ball Pit of any size or depth.

#146 In regards to entry #53, given that I now do offer deals and pacts fairly regularly all things considered, I will remember to try and at least fall mostly in line with the Better Business Bureau’s ethical standards with said dealings.

#147 Given that prior rulings (#42 in particular) have failed, and I am happily sadly considered, among other things, The Wonderful Wizard of Gauze, I shall instead remind myself that flinging bandage wraps at people is not an effective attack. And that, strong as they may be, they cannot support my weight even in bulk - therefore I am forbidden from trying to swing off or around tall buildings with them as my ‘webs’. I am not ‘Spider-man’, and never will be - no matter what I attempt in order to change that.

#148 As an addition to the above ruling, I am to remember that, even if being able to wrap-and-pull items in the heat of battle is a neat and useful utility to have over my adversaries, using the same skill with my ‘bandage shooting’ to grab things around the Halls in a casual setting is frowned upon, even especially if people offer to be ‘test subjects’, ‘training dummies’, or any other kind of volunteer to be ‘shot’ thusly.

#149 Given item #72, I am to extend the same ‘general line of thought’ towards attempting to ‘forcibly evolve things with magic’, or any other medium to attempt the same end result. Spoiler alert: they always turn into crabs. Every. Single. Time. No more crabs.

#150 Just in case, I am forever banned from setting foot within 5 miles of Las Vegas, Nevada. No, not even if the magical forces behind it try to invite me.

Visszaszivárognak az AMTS-re a motorok

Az elmúlt hétvége az AMTS lázában égett. A korábban a motorkiállítás mellett működő kiállítás először bedarálta a motorokat, de most úgy néz ki, hogy lassan visszaszivárognak a kétkerekűek is a Hungexpora. A látogatók számát nézve úgy tűnik, igény az van rá. Azért imádom ezt az időszakot (t.i. az AMTS környéki napokat), mert ilyenkor megtelik a város extrém járművekkel. A hét elején bármerre járunk Budapesten, mindig felbukkan egy-egy őrült tuning verda, ami épp a kiállításra készül, majd a kiállítás ideje alatt azok is előveszik a járgányaikat, akik nem állították ki a kocsit. És akkor még a motorokról nem is beszéltünk. Maga az AMTS amúgy engem kevésbé hoz lázba. Nem vagyok autó őrült, ami abból is látszik, hogy egy húszéves Suzuki Swifttel járok. Nem mondom, hogy nem bírnék elviselni egy menő verdát, de sajnálnám, hogy abban álljon a pénz. Erre ott van a motorom. Nem véletlen tehát, hogy amikor hosszas dugulás után kiértem pénteken - a sajtónapon - a Hungexpora, első utam a Keeway sajtótájékoztatójára vezetett a G pavilon nagyszínpadához. A második pedig a H-pavilonba, ahol az Adves Moto mutatta be az idei újdonságait. Később persze körbejártam az egész kiállítási területet, és végül a kedvencem a D pavilon lett. De ne szaladjunk ennyire előre! A Keewey - szerintem - az összes elérhető modelljét kihozta a kiállításra, és bár nem centiztem le a méreteket, nekem úgy tűnt, ők bérelték a legnagyobb standot a motoros cégek között. Szükség is volt a hatalmas helyre, hiszen a cég a Keeway-en kívül három másik márkát is forgalmaz. A Benelli motorok és az nzi robogók mellett egy új márkát is bemutattak: az MBP márkanév alatt a 125-ös robogótól a 125 utcai modelleken keresztül az 1000 ccm-es power cruiserig minden megtalálható, ami szem-szájnak ingere. Mivel a kiállítás szabad területén lehetőség volt a motorok kipróbálására, éltem a lehetőséggel, hogy még a hétvégi tömeg előttduruljak egy karikát az új modellekkel. A választásom egy túraendurora, a Benelli TRK 702X-re és városi nakedre, az MBP M502N-re esett. Előbbi beloptaa szívembe magát a nagy testhez képest alacsony üléspozíciójával, utóbbi pedig a könnyű kezelhetősge miatt lesz mindenki kedvence. Az Adves moto több új modellt leplezett le a kiállításon: A Brixton Cromwell 1200X modellel a klasszikus nagyvas scrambler-es változata. Az új formatervű márkajelzés, a gyönyörű, törtfehér fényezésű üzemenyagtank és az aranyszínű keréktárcsák már messziről árulkodnak arról, hogy itt egy különleges modellel van dolgunk. A bütykös Pirelli Scorpion Rally STR gumikkal szerelt küllős kerekek és a széles, magas és merevítővel is ellátott kormány mellett a fémből készült haspáncél, a bukócső és a lámparács is látványos és hasznos stíluselemek. Még több kép a CsamClub.hu galériában A Malaguti Madison 125 már negyed évszázada rója az utakat, nem csoda tehát, hogy az ötödik generációs modellben kiforrott technika dolgozik. A dinamikus, mégis kis fogyasztású motorblokk, a remek futóművek, a könnyű kezelhetőség és a harapós, ABS-sel ellátott fékrendszer mellett a bolognai mérnökök olyan extrákkal kényeztetik a vezetőt, mint a színes kijelző, a riasztó, a formás LED fények, az USB aljzat vagy éppen a kulcsnélküli indítás. At RQi a három évvel ezelőtt bemutatott NIU koncepciómotor is megérkezett Európába. A NIU elektromos motokerékpárjának adatai több, mint meggyőzőek: 450 Nm nyomaték, 7500 watt maximális teljesítmény mellett a 0-50 sprintet 2.9 másodperc alatt teljesíti az RQi. A Brembo féknyergek, a nagyméretű féktárcsák mellett ABS rendszer és kipörgésgátló is felügyeli a menetbiztonságot. Az elöl-hátul állítható felfüggesztések mellett a kulcs nélküli indítás, Bluetooth- kapcsolat, rablásgátló rendszer és GPS nyomkövető és a NIU okosalkalmazás is a felszereltség része.  Az RQi mindezeken felül beépített kamerákkal is rendelkezik.  Az XQi a városi intelligens közlekedés forradalmát vezető NIU első elektromos terepmotorja. Középmotor hajtja, mely a 8000 wattos csúcsteljesítmény mellett 357 Nm nyomatékot visz át lánchajtással a hátsó kerékre. Elöl 19, hátul 20 hüvelyk méretű terepgumikat találunk, a felfüggesztés elöl-hátul állítható. Az önsúlya mindössze 76 kilogramm, a hatótáv a 72V 32Ah kapacítású akkumulátornak köszönhetően 90 kilométer. Az XQi3 természetesen kompatibilis a NIU okosalkalmazással, emellett Bluetooth és NFC kapcsolatot is kezel, a frissítésről OTA (over the air) rendszer gondoskodik automatikusan.   A KQi Air az ultrakönnyű e-rollerek új generációja. Magnézium-karbon kivitelben készül, így a súlya mindössze 11.9 kg. Az egyedülállóan kicsi önsúly komoly műszaki tartalommal párosul. A 350 Wattos teljesítmény (700 Watt csúcsteljesítmény) rendkívül dinamikusan mozgatja a könnyű felépítményt, a líthium-ion akkumulátorcsomag 50 kilométeres hatótávot tesz lehetővé. A széles kormány és taposó, a 9.5" -os levegővel fújt kerekek, az elülső tárcsafék és a regeneratív fékrendszer mellett irányjelzők, első-hátsó lámpa, valamint NFC okos zár és NIU applikáció teszi különlegessé ezt az elektromos rollert. Bemutatkozott a Hosszútávú Motoros Világbajnokság (EWC) magyar csapata Az AMTS-en bemutatkozott az első magyar csapat, amely részt vesz a Hosszútávú Motoros Világbajnokság (EWC) versenysorozatban. A Moto-Jungle Racing egy újonnan alakult motoros endurance egyesület. Céljuk, hogy egy 100 százalékban magyar csapatot versenyeztessünk a Nemzetközi Motorkerékpár Szövetség (FIM) által szervezett Hosszútávú Motoros Világbajnokság (EWC) versenysorozatban. Ez a versenysorozat a LeMans-i 24 órás, a spa francorchamp-i 8 órás, a suzukai 8 órás és a Bol d’Or 24 órás motorversenyeket foglalja magában minden évben. A világbajnoki sorozatban még sosem vett részt magyar csoport. Legutoljára a Bol d’Or versenyen találkozhattunk a Pannónia motorgyár indulóival az 1950-es és ’70-es években, a LeMans-i 24 órás versenyen viszont sem autós, sem motoros magyar csapat nem indult még soha. A sajtótájékoztató egy időben volt az Adves moto bemutatójával, így aztán erről lemaradtam, pedig ott voltak: - Kovács Sándor, az 1972-es Bol d'Or 24 órás verseny Pannónia csapatának egyetlen élő pilótája - Rizmayer Gábor, többszörös bajnok motorversenyző, mint a Moto-Jungle Racing versenyigazgatója - Molnár Gergő, Alpok-Adria Kupa sorozat győztes motorversenyző, mint a Moto-Jungle  Racing versenyzője - Horváth László, a Moto-Jungle Racing csapat vezetője Custom Bike Contest - motorépítő bajnokság A D pavilonban a korábbi évekhez hasonlóan a veterán klubok mutatták be szépségeiket, és itt kaptak helyet az '50-60-as évek stílusában épített Hot Rod-ok és itt került megrendezésre a hosszú évek után új köntösben felélesztett magyar motorépítő bajnokság Custom Bike Contest néven. A kiállított csaknem 40 egyedi motorkerékpár között voltak olyanok, amiket már láthattunk korábban, és voltak olyanok is, amik az elmúlt évek alatt készültek. A nagyközönség megnézhette a Gigamachine Choppers építéseit, amelyek egy héttel korábban Pozsonyban képviselték sikerrel hazánkat, de láthattuk a Berci Custom Choppers építéseit, pl. az Indian Larry motort, amiről már a Csajokamotoron.hu oldalain is írtunk korábban. Ott volt Frabato különleges Harley-Davidsonja is, amely éppen eladó sorba került, és még Müce is hozott motort Svájcból. CUSTOM BIKE CONTEST 2024 - EREDMÉNYEK Old School kategória - különdíj 43.

The legal industry has emerged as a major winner amid cryptocurrency collapses like FTX and Celsius, generating hundreds of millions of dollars for lawyers.Lawyers, accountants, consultants, analysts and other professionals have Crypto-collapse-lawyers-turnaround-specialists.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">collected at least $700 million in fees from the bankruptcies from major Crypto firms over the past year, according to a report and an analysis by The New York Times.The calculated amount includes the costs charged as part of Crypto bankruptcy cases of five Crypto firms such as FTX, Celsius Network, Voyager Digital, BlockFi and Genesis Global between July 5, 2022 and July 31, 2023. The figure is likely to grow significantly as the cases unfold in the near future, with Sam Bankman Fried’s trial coming in October.Fees charged in Crypto bankruptcy cases. Source: The New York TimesAccording to the data, the legal experts involved in the FTX case are the biggest winners of cryptocurrency bankruptcies, charging a total of $326 million. The law firm Sullivan & Cromwell, which manages FTX’s bankruptcy, has reportedly charged over $110 million in legal fees, in addition to $500,000 in expenses.Andrew Dietderich reportedly noted that the costs are particularly driven by lack of clear cryptocurrency regulations, which made the cases more complex and time-consuming.Kirkland & Ellis — which handles Celsius, Genesis and Voyager bankruptcies — has billed $101 million for its work, with $2.5 million in expenses, the NYT analysts said. Alvarez & Marsal, a turnaround management firm, has reportedly charged more than $125 million for its work on FTX, Celsius and Genesis.Some of the initial reports indicating that firms like Sullivan & Cromwell would reap a fortune from its Crypto bankruptcy work surfaced in January 2023. The firm reportedly had more than 150 people working on the FTX case at the time, including 30 partners with rates exceeding $2,000 per hour.Amid concerns over high legal fees, the United States bankruptcy court appointed Katherine Stadler as fee examiner for the FTX case. In June, Stadler reported that the team working on FTX had requested more than $200 million in fees since its November bankruptcy, stating that the fees were reasonable.SBF’s legal team is continuing to fight against the U.S. Department of Justice, asking the court on Sept. 1 to deny all recent requests by the authority. As previously reported by Cointelegraph, one of the DOJ’s requests included an appeal to ban all SBF’s seven expert witnesses from testifying in court. Some of the witnesses could cost SBF up to $1,200 per hour to testify. Source

‘Holy thorn (Crataegus monogyna cv. 'Biflora')’

“The Holy or Glastonbury Thorn is a variety of the common HAWTHORN which produces flowers in winter as well as at the usual time in early summer. What appears to be the earliest reference to the Thorn is found in a lengthy poem, entitled Here begynneth the lyfe of Joseph of Armathia, which is believed to have been written at the opening of the sixteenth century. The poem states that there were three thorn trees growing on Wearyall Hill, just south of Glastonbury in Somerset, which:

Do burge and bere grene leaues at Christmas

As fresihe as other in May when ye nightingale

Wrestes out her notes musycall as pure glas.

[Anon., 1520]

However, there is some slight evidence to suggest that the Thorn may have been in existence almost 400 years earlier. At Appleton Thorn in Cheshire a custom known as 'Bawming the Thorn' used to be per- formed each year. Basically the custom consisted of decorating a thorn tree which grows in the centre of the village. Local tradition states that a tree has stood on this site since 1125, when an offshoot of the Holy Thorn was planted by Adam de Dutton [Hole, 1976: 26]. If there is any truth in this tradition, it would imply that there was a thorn tree at Glastonbury early in the twelfth century, when the Benedictine monks at its abbey were busily accumulating their massive, but poorly authenticated, collection of relics, which was destroyed in a disastrous fire in 1184. It is quite possible that a hawthorn which produced flowers at Christmas time might have been added to the attractions provided to stimulate pilgrimages to the abbey.

The lyfe of Joseph gives no information on the trees' origins, and does not mention the production of winter flowers. Fifteen years after its publication, four years before the suppression of Glastonbury Abbey, the Christmas flowering of the Thorn was first recorded. On 24 Au- gust 1535 Dr Layton, the visitor sent to the Abbey, wrote to Thomas Cromwell from Bristol, and enclosed two pieces of a tree which blossomed on Christmas Eve.

By this bringer, my servant, I send you Relicks: First two flowers wraped in white and black sarsnet, that on Christen Mass Even, hora ipsa qua Christus natus fuerat, will spring and burge and bare blossoms. Quod expertum est, saith the Prior of Mayden Bradley. [Batten, 1881: 116]

During the reign of Elizabeth I the Thorn growing on Wearyall had two trunks:

when a puritan exterminated one, and left the other, which was the size of a common man, to be viewed in wonder by strangers; and the blossoms thereof were esteemed such curiosities by people of all nations that Bristol merchants made traffick of them and exported them to foreign parts. [Collinson, 179I: 265]

Or, according to an earlier, more credulous account:

It had two Trunks or Bodies till the Reign of Queen Elizabeth, in whose days a Saint like Puritan, taking offence at it, hewed down the biggest of the Trunks, and had cut down the other Body in all likelyhood, had he not bin miraculously punished (saith my Author) by cutting his Leg, and one of the Chips flying up to his Head, which put out one of his Eyes. Though the Trunk cut off was separated quite from the root, excepting a little of the Bark which stuck to the rest of the Body, and laid above the Ground above thirty Years together; yet it still continued to flourish as the other Part did which was left standing; after this again, when it was quite taken away and cast into a Ditch, it flourished and budded as it used to do before. A Year after this, it was stolen away, not known by whom or whither. [Rawlinson, 1722: 109]

Later, during the reign of James I, the Thorn enjoyed some popularity as a garden curiosity, and the aristocracy, including the King's consort Anne of Denmark, paid large sums for cuttings [Collinson, 1791: 265). It is possible that this fashion of growing thorns in private gardens saved the plant from extinction, for during the civil unrest later in the century the surviving trunk of the original tree was destroyed by a Roundhead, who 'being over zealous did cut it downe in pure devotion' (Taylor, 1649: 6]. In 1653 Godfrey Goodman, Bishop of Gloucester, lamented: "The White Thorn at Glastonbury which did usually blossome on Christmas Day was cut down: yet I did not heare that the party was punisheď [Rawlinson, 1722: 301].

In 1645 the Revd John Eachard described the Glastonbury Thorn, which was then much mutilated by visitors who cut off pieces of it for souvenirs, as being of the kind 'wherewith Christ was crowned'. An elaboration of this belief relates how St Joseph of Arimathea brought two treasures to Glastonbury: silver containers holding the blood and sweat of Christ (which seem to have become confused or equated with the Holy Grail) and a thorn from Christ's Crown of Thorns, which grew and proved its holiness by flowering each year at the time of Christ's birth [Hole, 1965: 39].

Seventy years after Eachard wrote, an oral tradition collected from a Glastonbury inn-keeper explained how the Thorn had grown from a STAFF carried by St Joseph of Arimathea [Rawlinson, 1722: 1). According to tradition, the Apostles divided the world between them, St Philip being sent to Gaul, accompanied by St Joseph of Arimathea, who is usually considered to be an uncle of the Virgin Mary. After some years Joseph left the Apostle and accompanied by eleven others set out for Britain, arriving at Glastonbury, and eventually founding the first church to be built on British soil, in AD 63 [Hole, 1965: 35]- When Joseph reached Glastonbury he rested on Wearyall Hill and thrust his staff into the ground, where it grew and became the original Holy Thorn [Rawlinson, 1722: 2]. Some writers have asserted that it was this miracle which caused Joseph to settle in Glastonbury.

A second version of the legend relates how St Joseph landed on the Welsh coast, or possibly at Barrow Bay in Somerset, but found the natives hostile. He continued his wanderings and reached the land of King Arviragus. Although Joseph was unable to convert the monarch, he made a sufficiently good impression for land at Ynyswitrin—Glastonbury—to be granted to him and his companions. However the local inhabitants showed little enthusiasm for the new faith. It was not until Joseph fixed his staff in the ground and prayed, whereupon it immediately produced blossoms, that people began to pay serious attention to the missionaries' preaching [Anon., n.d.: 6 and 23]. It is sometimes claimed that Joseph performed this miracle on Christmas Day and hence the Thorn has flowered on this day ever since [Wilks, 1972: 98].

Some recent writers have asserted that there is some truth in the various legends and suggest that the Thorn originated from stock brought from the Holy Land, or at least a country bordering the Mediterranean. The winter flowering of the tree is explained by the suggestion that it belongs to a variety of hawthorn native to the Middle East [Batten, 1881: 125]. The Revd Alan Clarkson, Vicar of St John's church in Glastonbury, in a pamphlet produced in 1977 in aid of church restoration funds, claimed that: 'Whatever the legend may say, a Thorn has been growing here for 2,000 years and it came from Palestine.' A recent study of hawthorns states:

In North Africa, flowering in late autumn and early winter is known also in populations of C[rataegus] monogyna that are morphologically fairly similar to the Holy Thorn of Glastonbury. [Christensen, 1992: 111]

A young leafy shoot of hawthorn, labelled 'Oxyacantha autumnalis, from Wells, Joseph of Arymathaea rod’, is preserved in the herbarium of the Natural History Museum in London. This specimen was in- cluded in a collection given by the London apothecary Robert Nicholls to the Apothecaries' Company in 1745, and was part of 'a valuable series of plants' presented by the Company to the Museum in 1862 [Vickery, 1991: 81].

It is told that, in the eighteenth century, a miller walked all the way from his home in Wales to visit the Thorn. His English vocabulary was restricted to three words, 'Staff of Joseph', but these were sufficient to ensure that he reached Glastonbury, and he was able to proudly carry home a sprig from the tree [Bett, 1952: 139].

When the calendar was reformed in 1752 the Holy Thorn attracted considerable attention, for people watched the trees to see if they would produce their Christmas blossoms according to the new or old calendar. The Gentleman's Magazine of January 1753 recorded that on Christmas Eve, 24 December 1752, hundreds of people gathered at Glastonbury to see if the several Thorn trees growing there would produce flowers. No flowers appeared, but when the crowds reassembled on Old Christmas Eve, 5 January 1753, they were rewarded and the trees blossomed, confirming the onlookers' doubts about the validity of the new calendar. Later in 1753 a correspondent of the Magazine stated that, after reports of the Thorns' flowering on Old Christmas Eve had been printed in a Hull newspaper, the vicar of Glastonbury had been questioned. According to him, the trees blossomed 'fullest and finest about Christmas Day New Style, or rather sooner' [Gentleman's Magazine, 1753: 578].

At Quainton in Buckinghamshire over two thousand people gathered to watch a thorn they remembered as being a descendant of the Glastonbury tree:

but the people finding no appearance of bud, 'twas agreed by all, that Decemb. 25 N.S. could not be Christmas-Day and accordingly refused going to church, and treating their friends on that day as usual; at length the affair became so serious, that ministers of neighbouring villages, in order to appease the people thought it prudent to give notice, that old Christmas-Day should be kept holy as before. [Gentleman's Magazine, 1753: 49]

Until early in the present century people continued to visit Holy Thorns on Old Christmas Eve.

It is believed that the Holy Thorn blossoms at twelve o'clock on Twelfth Night, the time, so they say, at which Christ was born. The blossoms are thought to open at midnight, and drop off about an hour afterwards. A piece of thorn gathered at this hour brings luck, if kept for the rest of the year. Formerly crowds of people went to see the thorn blossom at this time. I went myself to Wormesley [Herefordshire] in 1908; about forty people were there, and as it was quite dark and the blossom could only be seen by candle light, it was probably the warmth of the candles which made some of the little white buds seem to expand. The tree had really been in bloom for several days, the season being extremely mild. [Leather, 1912: 17]

A thorn in the garden of Kingston Grange in Herefordshire was annually visited by people who came from miles around, and 'were liberally supplied with cake and cider' [Leather, 1912: 17]. However, such convivial gatherings sometimes gave way to unruly behaviour, and some people destroyed thorns growing on their property so that unwelcome visits might be stopped. Near Crewkerne in Somerset, in January 1878:

Immense crowds gathered at a cottage between Hewish and Woolmingstone to witness the supposed blooming of a 'Holy' thorn at midnight on Saturday. The weather was unfavourable and the visitors were impatient. There were buds on the plant, but they did not burst into flower as they were said to have done the previous vear. The crowd started singing and then it degenerated into a quarrel and stones were thrown. The occupier of the cottage, seeing how matters stood, pulled up the thorn and took it inside, receiving a blow on the head from a stone for his pains. A free fight ensued and more will be heard of the affair in the Magistrates' Court. [Pur man's Weekly News, 10 January 1978]

Similarly:

A Holy Thorn made a brief appearance in Dorset in 1844 in the garden of a Mr Keynes of Sutton Poyntz. It was rumoured that it had grown from a cutting of the famous Glastonbury Thorn and was expected to blossom at midnight on Old Christmas Eve. 150 people turned up to see the event. Violent scenes took place, the fence was broken down and the plant so badly damaged that it died. [Waring, 1977: 68]

Not surprisingly, tales were told of misfortunes (many of which were very similar to those which befall people who destroy LONE BUSHES in Ireland) which happened to those who attempted to cut down Holy Thorns. An early attempt to destroy a tree resulted in thorns flying from the tree and blinding the axeman in one eye, so that he was 'made monocular' [Howell, 1640: 86]. A man who attempted to cut down a tree that grew in his garden at Clehonger in Herefordshire was more lucky and was let off with a warning: 'blood flowed from the trunk of the tree and this so alarmed him that he left off at once!' [Leather, 1912: 17]. A farmer who destroyed a thorn at Acton Beauchamp in Worcestershire was successful, but within a year he broke an arm and a leg, and part of his house was destroyed by fire [Lees, 1856: 295].

Shortly before Christmas each year sprays from a Thorn tree which grows in St John's churchyard in Glastonbury are sent to the Queen and Queen Mother. In 1929 the then vicar of Glastonbury, whose sister-in-law was a lady-in-waiting to Queen Mary, sent a sprig to the Queen, reviving, according to some writers, a pre-Reformation custom [Anon., 1977]. A report in the Western Daily Press of 20 December 1973 stated that the custom started in Stuart times, and it is recorded that James Montague, Bishop of Bath and Wells, sent pieces of the Holy Thorn and Glastonbury's miraculous WALNUT tree to Queen Anne, consort of James I [Rawlinson, 1722: 112]. About a week before Christmas a short religious service is held around the Thorn. Children from St John's Infants' School sing carols and play their recorders, and the vicar and mayor of Glastonbury cut twigs from the tree. It is said that the Queen has her sprays placed on her breakfast table on Christmas morning, while the Queen Mother has hers placed on her writing table. Letters sent by ladies-in-waiting to the vicar, asking him to convey thanks to the people of Glastonbury, are pinned on the church notice board [Vickery, 1979: 12].

The tree in St John's churchyard which had been used for this ceremony died early in 1991, but fortunately there is a younger tree growing in the churchyard, and other Holy Thorns may be found in the Abbey grounds, outside St Benedict's church, and in private gardens in Glastonbury.”

The Best Guide of Fishing in WOW Classic

Fishing is the second occupation, which allows players to fish various objects, mainly fish, from water or lava in rare cases.

Most fish can be eaten directly or cooked to improve their regeneration quality. Improving fishing and cooking skills together can provide excellent synergy. Fish is also valuable in auction houses. Despite the low income, the money earned may be insignificant, and those skilled in the work will catch rare and fascinating fish.

Upgrading fishing can take a long time, because you will be limited by the speed at which you can catch the fish each time you mold, rather than the mold time of other professional recipes. It is best to level it when you are leveling and want to change your pace, or if you want to reach level 60, you should wait until you reach the highest level.

Please note that when you are fishing leveling, there will be a lot of fish that can be used for leveling cooking. If you plan to do this, please don't sell the fish, but put it in the bank.

365 Day Movie Challenge (2019) - #125: In Name Only (1939) - dir. John Cromwell

The love triangle of Carole Lombard, Cary Grant and Kay Francis in RKO’s In Name Only is a heavy melodrama kept afloat mainly by the two lead actresses’ performances. Grant is surprisingly out of his element as Alec Walker, a Connecticut suburbanite who is practically at wit’s end due to his loveless union with his wife Maida (Francis). Members of high society, like Alec’s parents (Charles Coburn and Nella Walker), don’t suspect a thing, so the community is shocked when it becomes common knowledge that Alec has become close friends with a beautiful young widow, Julie Eden (Lombard). Julie has a tough enough time juggling her job as a commercial artist and taking care of her daughter Ellen (Peggy Ann Garner), so being implicated in an affair with a married man - even though that marriage is “in name only” - is a rollercoaster of emotions, especially when Maida repeatedly postpones giving Alec a divorce.

Even when In Name Only is at its eye-rolling soapiest, Lombard and Francis are committed to their roles, with Lombard at her best in the film’s tense final scenes, which suggested to me how great Lombard could have been in film noir and therefore made me lament the actress’s premature death in 1942 more than ever. Katharine Alexander also does commendable work as Lombard’s sister, Laura, whose sour reactions to Julie and Alec’s involvement are shaped by the fact that her own husband left her for another woman a number of years earlier.

As I stir the Christmas pudding mix, I make a wish, as do each of us in turn. We are gathered in the stunning Jacobean Hall of a former medieval coaching inn now a luxury hotel, The Spread Eagle in Midhurst, West Sussex. It’s the Sunday before Advent Sunday and throughout England, Christmas puddings are being made, traditionally with all the family taking it in turn to stir the pudding and make a wish. The day is commonly called Stir-up Sunday, after the opening words of the main prayer said in Anglican Churches on this day, which says:

“Stir up, we beseech thee, O Lord, the wills of thy faithful people…”

Christmas in England would not be Christmas without a traditional Christmas pudding. You’ll find the recipe at the end of this post, but first I’d like to tell you more about the history of this delicious sweet treat.

  Pin it for later!

  A brief history of the Christmas pudding

The origins of the Christmas pudding date from medieval times. The late autumn was traditionally the time when weak animals were slaughtered. Continuing to feed them was an unnecessary expense as they were unlikely to survive the harsh winter. The glut of meat that this produced needed preserving, so the meat was diced and mixed with sweet, dried autumn fruits and spices and encased in pastry. This is thought to be the origin of both the Christmas pudding and another traditional Christmas treat in England, mince pies.

It was originally called frumenty or plum pottage, was cooked in beer rather than water (as the beer was safer to drink) and had a soup-like consistency.

In around the year 1600, people started adding breadcrumbs, dried fruit and spirits and became established as a Christmas tradition some 50 years later.

Did you know? In 1664 Oliver Cromwell banned Christmas puddings because they were unfitting for God-fearing people. They returned as a Christmas tradition some 50 years later, thanks to King George I.

Over the years, the ingredients developed further but it was not until 1845 that Eliza Acton, in the East Sussex village of Battle, wrote down the first Christmas pudding recipe as we know it today.

Stir-up Sunday at The Spread Eagle

Meanwhile at The Spread Eagle, a Christmas tradition of their own developed, which dates back well over one hundred years. Each Christmas Eve every guest at the hotel is given a homemade Christmas pudding. They can either take it home or have it tied to the ceiling in the hotel’s restaurant. The puddings stay there until the guests return the following Christmas, during which their pudding is cooked for them. Unclaimed Christmas puddings remain tied up to the ceiling year-round.

Having been invited to join Group Executive Head Chef and Roux Scholar Martin Hadden , at The Spread Eagle in Middleton, West Sussex, for their annual Stir-up Sunday, I was more than happy to oblige! The Spread Eagle is one of three privately owned luxury hotels, Historic Sussex Hotels. While I had recently spent a wonderful day at the spa at Bailiffscourt Hotel, I had never visited The Spread Eagle, an exceptional hotel and one of England’s oldest coaching inns.

We had a fabulous afternoon making our puddings and building up our appetites, before indulging in a very decadent afternoon tea. It was wonderful to see how much everyone enjoyed it. One family included three generations all making their Christmas puddings together. I came home with my Christmas pudding, which is steaming away as I write this, but I’m going to have to wait until Christmas Day before I can taste it.

    How to make the perfect Christmas pudding

Lunch on Christmas Day is the most important meal of the year in England and as every Christmas host knows, it’s important to all that everything is cooked to perfection. A turkey, parsnips and potatoes are roasted and traditionally served with sprouts, carrots, stuffing, cranberry jelly and pork sausages wrapped in bacon. For dessert it MUST be Christmas pudding served with brandy butter and cream.

And don’t forget the crackers, another Christmas essential. The crackers are pulled open at the start of the meal and traditionally contain a bad joke, paper hat and some sort of small (usually pointless) gift! They’re an expensive bit of nonsense but one year we didn’t have them, and it just didn’t feel like Christmas.

Christmas Pudding

A must-have dessert for lunch on Christmas Day in Britain. 

Once you have made the pudding and allowed it to rest for 24 hours, it must be steamed within a week of making, after which it should be stored in a cool, dark place until it is reheated on Christmas Day.

28 servings make four 700 g puddings. Each one should be steamed for 3 hours 40 minutes (plus one and half to two hours before to reheat it on the Christmas Day).

CLICK UNDER ‘SERVINGS’ TO DECREASE THE NUMBER OF SERVINGS

Traditionally, a silver sixpence was also added to the pudding, bringing luck to the person that found it on Christmas Day.

500 g raisins

250 g sultanas

250 g dark brown sugar

250 g breadcrumbs

70 g flour

250 g suet

125 g ground almonds

125 g candied citrus peel

125 g glace cherries

125 g glace apricots

2 lemons (zest only)

1 orange (zest only)

2 tsp mixed spice

1 tsp cinnamon

4 eggs

125 g apple

2 tbsp black treacle

100 ml brandy

100 ml ginger wine

To prepare the Christmas pudding

In a large bowl mix the raisins, sultanas, currants and dark brown sugar.

Add the breadcrumbs, flour, suet and ground almonds. Mix thoroughly.

 Add the peel, cherries and apricots. Mix thoroughly.

Add the zest, mixed spice and cinnamon. Keep mixing.

Grate the unpeeled apple into the bowl.

Add the eggs. Mix thoroughly. You’ll start to feel the mixture firming up, making it harder to stir.

Lastly, stir in the treacle, brandy and ginger wine, making sure that everything is thoroughly mixed in.

Cover the bowl and leave in a fridge for 24 hours to let the flavours infuse.

Transfer the mixture into pudding bowls and pat down with the back of a spoon. Make sure to leave a gap at the top of the bowl.

Cover with a disc of greaseproof paper and tightly wrap the bowl in cling film.

To steam the pudding

Leaving the greaseproof paper over the pudding, cover the top in foil but allow space for the pudding to rise. Tie the foil in place with string. 

Boil a large pan of water. Use a small upturned saucer at the bottom of your pan to protect your pudding bowl from the intense heat (which may cause your basin to crack).

Wrap the pudding in muslin cloth so that the ends of the cloth can be used to pick up the pudding (or add a string handle).

Stand the pudding in the water, making sure the water comes half way up the bowl but no higher.

Steam for the required time, topping up the water as necessary. Resist lifting the lid of the steaming pan for the first 30 minutes as the drop in temperature could cause the pudding to collapse. 

Leave to cool then store in a cool, dry place until Christmas Day.

To reheat the pudding for serving

Steam for a further 1 and a half to 2 hours.

Lay the table with brandy butter, cream, custard and/or vanilla ice cream.

Dim the lights.

Make a small indent in the top of the pudding.

Fill it with brandy, letting some run down the side of the pudding.

Light the brandy and carry the pudding to the table.

Step back in time for a lunch with a British flare. There is an awesome little tea room in Adrian Michigan. Governor Croswell Tea Room is a must visit when in Adrian.  It is located at 125 E. Maumee in historic downtown Adrian. It is situated right next to the Croswell Opera House. It is on the main floor of the 100-year-old Hoefler Building. The name of the tea room is in honor of the former Adrian resident, Charles M. Croswell, who was the 17th Governor of the State of Michigan from 1877-1881.

Charming Local Treasure

The Governor Croswell tea room is an absolutely charming place. I love the fact that there are no two teacups alike. They serve tea in china with linen tablecloths, cloth napkins, and real silverware. Each table has fresh roses on them from a local florist. I found the roses a truly an impressive detail. The classical music adds a relaxing mood to the restaurant and puts the guest in a peaceful state.

I arrived just minutes after they opened at 11 am so I had my choice of seats. They are only open from 11 am – 4 pm Monday – Saturday. My server offered me the window seat and I graciously accepted. The sun streaming in the window was warm and very pleasant. This seat allowed me the luxury of watching the passing traffic and people watch.

Recommendations

Friends had been urging me to go check out the Governor Croswell Tea Room for quite some time and I finally decided I would make the time. “Me time”  is something we all should partake in. I could not have agreed more and made this experience my own. I am extremely glad I did! The atmosphere was very welcoming and I loved the British influence.

A Spectacular Lunch

I choose the Lady Cromwell dish served with Lady Gray tea. They offered a nice variety of lunch specialties. The Lady Cromwell consisted of a spinach and feta cheese quiche, a three-cheese muffin and my choice of soup. I opted for the broccoli cheese soup over the other two choices of chicken noodle or vegetable.

Now, I see why this is one of the top local tea shops in Michigan! The lunch was delicious and the service was spectacular. The quiche was moist with great flavor, feta was not something I had ever had before. The muffin, though not on my ketogenic list, was tasty, especially with the house-made herbed whipped butter.

Dessert Choices

Normally I skip dessert, but of course, I saved room for dessert today! The dessert tray consisted of four bite-size treats from their daily selection. My choices included the lemon and chocolate tarts, the Ayrshire Cream, and a surprise selection from the server. He brought me a pecan tart to round up my sweet treats. I have to say, they were all scrumptious. The tray was a perfect choice, as choosing only one would have been incredibly difficult! All the choices were delicious.

Worth Repeat Visits

I will be returning for lunch again and I encourage you to visit it also. Downtown Adrian offers so many wonderful little treasures. The Governor Croswell Tea Room is just one of those treasures. While you are in downtown Adrian take time to visit the Lenawee County History Museum. Or wander the streets for a while and check out The Book Abbey, Nova’s candy shop or Sky View Square. Adrian has so much offer I encourage you to wander this lovely little town. Since autumn is on the way so be prepared for the chilly weather and upcoming travel with the best fall accessories.

The 100 A Ranking Of The Most Influential Persons In History By Michael H. Hart

 Book Name The 100 A Ranking Of The Most Influential Persons In History By Michael H. Hart Author Michael Hart’s  Book Publishers A Citadel Press Book  Carol Publishing Group  Publish Date 2000 Language. English Category English Novel History  Book Code 238 Pages 591 Rs 1200 Book Quality Black Paper   Whatsapp [phone] E-mail [email protected]

INTRODUCTION 

In his  book  Letters on  the English,  Voltaire relates that during 

his stay in England, in 1726, he overheard some learned men dis-

cussing the question:  who was the greatest man-Caesar, Alex-

ander,  Tamerlane,  or Cromwell? One speaker maintained that 

Sir Isaac Newton was beyond a doubt the greatest man. Voltaire 

agreed  with  this  judgment,  for:  "It is  to  him  who masters  our 

minds by the force of truth,  and not to those who enslave them 

by violence, that we owe our reverence." 

Whether Voltaire was truly convinced that Sir Isaac New-

ton was the greatest man who ever lived or was simply trying to 

make  a  philosophical  point,  the  anecdote  raises  an  interesting 

question: of the billions of human beings who have populated the 

earth, which persons have most influenced the course of history? 

This book presents my own answer to that question, my list 

of the  100  persons  in  history  whom  I  believe  to have been the 

most influential.  I  must emphasize that this  is  a  list of the most 

influential persons in history, not a list of the greatest.  For exam-

ple, there is  room in my list for an enormously influential, wick-

ed, and heartless man like Stalin, but no place at all for the saint-

ly Mother Cabrini. 

This book is  solely involved with the question of who were 

the 100 persons \vho had the greatest effect on history and on the 

course of the world.  I  have ranked these 100 persons in order of 

importance:  that is,  according to the total amount of influence 

that  each  of them  had  on  human  history  and  on  the everyday 

lives of other human beings. Such a group of exceptional people, 

whether noble or reprehensible,  famous or obscure,  flamboyant 

or modest, cannot fail  to be interesting;  they are the people who 

have shaped our lives and formed our world. 

About

A list of the one hundred most influential people in history features descriptions of the careers, contributions, and accomplishments of the political and religious leaders, inventors, writers, artists, and others who changed the course of history. Simultaneous.

In 1978, when Michael Hart’s controversial book The 100 was first published, critics objected that Hart had the nerve not only to select who he thought were the most influential people in history, but also to rank them according to their importance. Needless to say, the critics were wrong, and to date more than 60,000 copies of the book have been sold. Hart believed that in the intervening years the influence of some of his original selections had grown or lessened and that new names loomed large on the world stage. Thus, the publications of this revised and updated edition of The 100.

As before, Hart's yardstick is influence: not the greatest people, but the most influential, the people who swayed the destinies of millions of human beings, determined the rise and fall of civilizations, changed the course of history. With incisive biographies, Hart describes their careers and contributions. Explaining his ratings, he presents a new perspective on history, gathering together the vital facts about the world's greatest religious and political leaders, inventors, writers, philosophers, explorers, artists, and innovators—from Asoka to Zoroaster. Most of the biographies are accompanied by photographs or sketches. Hart's selections may be surprising to some. Neither Jesus nor Marx, but Muhammad, is designated as the most influential person in human history. The writer's arguments may challenge and perhaps convince readers, but whether or not they agree with him, his manner of ranking is both informative and entertaining. The 100, revised and updated, is truly a monumental work. It promises to be just as controversial, just as thought-provoking, and just as successful as its predecessor—a perfect addition to any history or philosophy reference section.

Those three men are:  Niels Bohr,  Pablo Picasso, and Antoine Henri 

Becquerel.  This,  of course,  does  not in  any way  imply  that  I  con-

sider  them  to  be  unimportant  figures.  On  the  contrary,  those 

three-like most  of those  listed  as  honorable  mentions,  and  like 

many  other  men  and  women  whom  I  have  not  had  the  space  to 

mention-were talented and influential  persons who have  helped 

create this faScinating  world we live  in.
