Edgar Allan Poe
At morn- at noon- at twilight dim-
Maria! thou hast heard my hymn!
In joy and woe- in good and ill-
Mother of God, be with me still!
When the hours flew brightly by,
And not a cloud obscured the sky,
My soul, lest it should truant be,
Thy grace did guide to thine and thee;
Now, when storms of Fate o'ercast
Darkly my Present and my Past,
Let my Future radiant shine
With sweet hopes of thee and thine!
Edgar Allan Poe
In Heaven a spirit doth dwell
"Whose heart-strings are a lute";
None sing so wildly well
As the angel Israfel,
And the giddy stars (so legends tell),
Ceasing their hymns, attend the spell
Of his voice, all mute.
Tottering above
In her highest noon,
The enamored moon
Blushes with love,
While, to listen, the red levin
(With the rapid Pleiads, even,
Which were seven,)
Pauses in Heaven.
And they say (the starry choir
And the other listening things)
That Israfeli's fire
Is owing to that lyre
By which he sits and sings-
The trembling living wire
Of those unusual strings.
But the skies that angel trod,
Where deep thoughts are a duty-
Where Love's a grown-up God-
Where the Houri glances are
Imbued with all the beauty
Which we worship in a star.
Therefore thou art not wrong,
Israfeli, who despisest
An unimpassioned song;
To thee the laurels belong,
Best bard, because the wisest!
Merrily live, and long!
The ecstasies above
With thy burning measures suit-
Thy grief, thy joy, thy hate, thy love,
With the fervor of thy lute-
Well may the stars be mute!
Yes, Heaven is thine; but this
Is a world of sweets and sours;
Our flowers are merely- flowers,
And the shadow of thy perfect bliss
Is the sunshine of ours.
If I could dwell
Where Israfel
Hath dwelt, and he where I,
He might not sing so wildly well
A mortal melody,
While a bolder note than this might swell
From my lyre within the sky.
"Not long ago, the writer of these lines"
Edgar Allan Poe
Not long ago, the writer of these lines,
In the mad pride of intellectuality,
Maintained "the power of words"- denied that ever
A thought arose within the human brain
Beyond the utterance of the human tongue:
And now, as if in mockery of that boast,
Two words- two foreign soft dissyllables-
Italian tones, made only to be murmured
By angels dreaming in the moonlit "dew
That hangs like chains of pearl on Hermon hill,"
Have stirred from out the abysses of his heart,
Unthought-like thoughts that are the souls of thought,
Richer, far wilder, far diviner visions
Than even seraph harper, Israfel,
(Who has "the sweetest voice of all God's creatures,")
Could hope to utter. And I! my spells are broken.
The pen falls powerless from my shivering hand.
With thy dear name as text, though bidden by thee,
I cannot write- I cannot speak or think-
Alas, I cannot feel; for 'tis not feeling,
This standing motionless upon the golden
Threshold of the wide-open gate of dreams.
Gazing, entranced, adown the gorgeous vista,
And thrilling as I see, upon the right,
Upon the left, and all the way along,
Amid empurpled vapors, far away
To where the prospect terminates- thee only.
"O! I care not that my earthly lot"
Edgar Allan Poe
O! I care not that my earthly lot
Hath little of Earth in it,
That years of love have been forgot
In the fever of a minute:
I heed not that the desolate
Are happier, sweet, than I,
But that you meddle with my fate
Who am a passer by.
It is not that my founts of bliss
Are gushing- strange! with tears-
Or that the thrill of a single kiss
Hath palsied many years-
'Tis not that the flowers of twenty springs
Which have wither'd as they rose
Lie dead on my heart-strings
With the weight of an age of snows.
Not that the grass- O! may it thrive!
On my grave is growing or grown-
But that, while I am dead yet alive
I cannot be, lady, alone.
Edgar Allan Poe
Romance, who loves to nod and sing,
With drowsy head and folded wing,
Among the green leaves as they shake
Far down within some shadowy lake,
To me a painted paroquet
Hath been- a most familiar bird-
Taught me my alphabet to say-
To lisp my very earliest word
While in the wild wood I did lie,
A child- with a most knowing eye.
Of late, eternal Condor years
So shake the very Heaven on high
With tumult as they thunder by,
I have no time for idle cares
Through gazing on the unquiet sky.
And when an hour with calmer wings
Its down upon my spirit flings-
That little time with lyre and rhyme
To while away- forbidden things!
My heart would feel to be a crime
Unless it trembled with the strings.
Edgar Allan Poe
So sweet the hour, so calm the time,
I feel it more than half a crime,
When Nature sleeps and stars are mute,
To mar the silence ev'n with lute.
At rest on ocean's brilliant dyes
An image of Elysium lies:
Seven Pleiades entranced in Heaven,
Form in the deep another seven:
Endymion nodding from above
Sees in the sea a second love.
Within the valleys dim and brown,
And on the spectral mountain's crown,
The wearied light is dying down,
And earth, and stars, and sea, and sky
Are redolent of sleep, as I
Am redolent of thee and thine
Enthralling love, my Adeline.
But list, O list,- so soft and low
Thy lover's voice tonight shall flow,
That, scarce awake, thy soul shall deem
My words the music of a dream.
Thus, while no single sound too rude
Upon thy slumber shall intrude,
Our thoughts, our souls- O God above!
In every deed shall mingle, love.
Edgar Allan Poe
I saw thee on thy bridal day-
When a burning blush came o'er thee,
Though happiness around thee lay,
The world all love before thee:
And in thine eye a kindling light
(Whatever it might be)
Was all on Earth my aching sight
Of Loveliness could see.
That blush, perhaps, was maiden shame-
As such it well may pass-
Though its glow hath raised a fiercer flame
In the breast of him, alas!
Who saw thee on that bridal day,
When that deep blush would come o'er thee,
Though happiness around thee lay;
The world all love before thee.
Sonnet to Silence
Edgar Allan Poe
Science! true daughter of Old Time thou art!
Who alterest all things with thy peering eyes.
Why preyest thou thus upon the poet's heart,
Vulture, whose wings are dull realities?
How should he love thee? or how deem thee wise,
Who wouldst not leave him in his wandering
To seek for treasure in the jewelled skies,
Albeit he soared with an undaunted wing?
Hast thou not dragged Diana from her car?
And driven the Hamadryad from the wood
To seek a shelter in some happier star?
Hast thou not torn the Naiad from her flood,
The Elfin from the green grass, and from me
The summer dream beneath the tamarind tree
Sonnet To Zante
Edgar Allan Poe
Fair isle, that from the fairest of all flowers,
Thy gentlest of all gentle names dost take!
How many memories of what radiant hours
At sight of thee and thine at once awake!
How many scenes of what departed bliss!
How many thoughts of what entombed hopes!
How many visions of a maiden that is
No more- no more upon thy verdant slopes!
No more! alas, that magical sad sound
Transforming all! Thy charms shall please no more-
Thy memory no more! Accursed ground
Henceforth I hold thy flower-enameled shore,
O hyacinthine isle! O purple Zante!
"Isola d'oro! Fior di Levante!"
Spirits of the Dead
Edgar Allan Poe
Thy soul shall find itself alone
'Mid dark thoughts of the grey tomb-stone;
Not one, of all the crowd, to pry
Into thine hour of secrecy.
Be silent in that solitude,
Which is not loneliness- for then
The spirits of the dead, who stood
In life before thee, are again
In death around thee, and their will
Shall overshadow thee; be still.
The night, though clear, shall frown,
And the stars shall not look down
From their high thrones in the Heaven
With light like hope to mortals given,
But their red orbs, without beam,
To thy weariness shall seem
As a burning and a fever
Which would cling to thee for ever.
Now are thoughts thou shalt not banish,
Now are visions ne'er to vanish;
From thy spirit shall they pass
No more, like dew-drop from the grass.
The breeze, the breath of God, is still,
And the mist upon the hill
Shadowy, shadowy, yet unbroken,
Is a symbol and a token.
How it hangs upon the trees,
A mystery of mysteries!
Edgar Allan Poe
In youth have I known one with whom the Earth
In secret communing held- as he with it,
In daylight, and in beauty from his birth:
Whose fervid, flickering torch of life was lit
From the sun and stars, whence he had drawn forth
A passionate light- such for his spirit was fit-
And yet that spirit knew not, in the hour
Of its own fervor what had o'er it power.
Perhaps it may be that my mind is wrought
To a fever by the moonbeam that hangs o'er,
But I will half believe that wild light fraught
With more of sovereignty than ancient lore
Hath ever told- or is it of a thought
The unembodied essence, and no more,
That with a quickening spell doth o'er us pass
As dew of the night-time o'er the summer grass?
Doth o'er us pass, when, as th' expanding eye
To the loved object- so the tear to the lid
Will start, which lately slept in apathy?
And yet it need not be- (that object) hid
From us in life- but common- which doth lie
Each hour before us- but then only, bid
With a strange sound, as of a harp-string broken,
To awake us- 'Tis a symbol and a token
Of what in other worlds shall be- and given
In beauty by our God, to those alone
Who otherwise would fall from life and Heaven
Drawn by their heart's passion, and that tone,
That high tone of the spirit which hath striven,
Tho' not with Faith- with godliness- whose throne
With desperate energy 't hath beaten down;
Wearing its own deep feeling as a crown.
Edgar Allan Poe
Kind solace in a dying hour!
Such, father, is not (now) my theme-
I will not madly deem that power
Of Earth may shrive me of the sin
Unearthly pride hath revell'd in-
I have no time to dote or dream:
You call it hope- that fire of fire!
It is but agony of desire:
If I can hope- Oh God! I can-
Its fount is holier- more divine-
I would not call thee fool, old man,
But such is not a gift of thine.
Know thou the secret of a spirit
Bow'd from its wild pride into shame.
O yearning heart! I did inherit
Thy withering portion with the fame,
The searing glory which hath shone
Amid the jewels of my throne,
Halo of Hell! and with a pain
Not Hell shall make me fear again-
O craving heart, for the lost flowers
And sunshine of my summer hours!
The undying voice of that dead time,
With its interminable chime,
Rings, in the spirit of a spell,
Upon thy emptiness- a knell.
I have not always been as now:
The fever'd diadem on my brow
I claim'd and won usurpingly-
Hath not the same fierce heirdom given
Rome to the Caesar- this to me?
The heritage of a kingly mind,
And a proud spirit which hath striven
Triumphantly with human kind.
On mountain soil I first drew life:
The mists of the Taglay have shed
Nightly their dews upon my head,
And, I believe, the winged strife
And tumult of the headlong air
Have nestled in my very hair.
So late from Heaven- that dew- it fell
(Mid dreams of an unholy night)
Upon me with the touch of Hell,
While the red flashing of the light
From clouds that hung, like banners, o'er,
Appeared to my half-closing eye
The pageantry of monarchy,
And the deep trumpet-thunder's roar
Came hurriedly upon me, telling
Of human battle, where my voice,
My own voice, silly child!- was swelling
(O! how my spirit would rejoice,
And leap within me at the cry)
The battle-cry of Victory!
The rain came down upon my head
Unshelter'd- and the heavy wind
Rendered me mad and deaf and blind.
It was but man, I thought, who shed
Laurels upon me: and the rush-
The torrent of the chilly air
Gurgled within my ear the crush
Of empires- with the captive's prayer-
The hum of suitors- and the tone
Of flattery 'round a sovereign's throne.
My passions, from that hapless hour,
Usurp'd a tyranny which men
Have deem'd, since I have reach'd to power,
My innate nature- be it so:
But father, there liv'd one who, then,
Then- in my boyhood- when their fire
Burn'd with a still intenser glow,
(For passion must, with youth, expire)
E'en then who knew this iron heart
In woman's weakness had a part.
I have no words- alas!- to tell
The loveliness of loving well!
Nor would I now attempt to trace
The more than beauty of a face
Whose lineaments, upon my mind,
Are- shadows on th' unstable wind:
Thus I remember having dwelt
Some page of early lore upon,
With loitering eye, till I have felt
The letters- with their meaning- melt
To fantasies- with none.
O, she was worthy of all love!
Love- as in infancy was mine-
'Twas such as angel minds above
Might envy; her young heart the shrine
On which my every hope and thought
Were incense- then a goodly gift,
For they were childish and upright-
Pure- as her young example taught:
Why did I leave it, and, adrift,
Trust to the fire within, for light?
We grew in age- and love- together,
Roaming the forest, and the wild;
My breast her shield in wintry weather-
And when the friendly sunshine smil'd,
And she would mark the opening skies,
I saw no Heaven- but in her eyes.
Young Love's first lesson is- the heart:
For 'mid that sunshine, and those smiles,
When, from our little cares apart,
And laughing at her girlish wiles,
I'd throw me on her throbbing breast,
And pour my spirit out in tears-
There was no need to speak the rest-
No need to quiet any fears
Of her- who ask'd no reason why,
But turn'd on me her quiet eye!
Yet more than worthy of the love
My spirit struggled with, and strove,
When, on the mountain peak, alone,
Ambition lent it a new tone-
I had no being- but in thee:
The world, and all it did contain
In the earth- the air- the sea-
Its joy- its little lot of pain
That was new pleasure- the ideal,
Dim vanities of dreams by night-
And dimmer nothings which were real-
(Shadows- and a more shadowy light!)
Parted upon their misty wings,
And, so, confusedly, became
Thine image, and- a name- a name!
Two separate- yet most intimate things.
I was ambitious- have you known
The passion, father? You have not:
A cottager, I mark'd a throne
Of half the world as all my own,
And murmur'd at such lowly lot-
But, just like any other dream,
Upon the vapour of the dew
My own had past, did not the beam
Of beauty which did while it thro'
The minute- the hour- the day- oppress
My mind with double loveliness.
We walk'd together on the crown
Of a high mountain which look'd down
Afar from its proud natural towers
Of rock and forest, on the hills-
The dwindled hills! begirt with bowers,
And shouting with a thousand rills.
I spoke to her of power and pride,
But mystically- in such guise
That she might deem it nought beside
The moment's converse; in her eyes
I read, perhaps too carelessly-
A mingled feeling with my own-
The flush on her bright cheek, to me
Seem'd to become a queenly throne
Too well that I should let it be
Light in the wilderness alone.
I wrapp'd myself in grandeur then,
And donn'd a visionary crown-
Yet it was not that Fantasy
Had thrown her mantle over me-
But that, among the rabble- men,
Lion ambition is chained down-
And crouches to a keeper's hand-
Not so in deserts where the grand-
The wild- the terrible conspire
With their own breath to fan his fire.
Look 'round thee now on Samarcand!
Is not she queen of Earth? her pride
Above all cities? in her hand
Their destinies? in all beside
Of glory which the world hath known
Stands she not nobly and alone?
Falling- her veriest stepping-stone
Shall form the pedestal of a throne-
And who her sovereign? Timour- he
Whom the astonished people saw
Striding o'er empires haughtily
A diadem'd outlaw!
O, human love! thou spirit given
On Earth, of all we hope in Heaven!
Which fall'st into the soul like rain
Upon the Siroc-wither'd plain,
And, failing in thy power to bless,
But leav'st the heart a wilderness!
Idea! which bindest life around
With music of so strange a sound,
And beauty of so wild a birth-
Farewell! for I have won the Earth.
When Hope, the eagle that tower'd, could see
No cliff beyond him in the sky,
His pinions were bent droopingly-
And homeward turn'd his soften'd eye.
'Twas sunset: when the sun will part
There comes a sullenness of heart
To him who still would look upon
The glory of the summer sun.
That soul will hate the ev'ning mist,
So often lovely, and will list
To the sound of the coming darkness (known
To those whose spirits hearken) as one
Who, in a dream of night, would fly
But cannot from a danger nigh.
What tho' the moon- the white moon
Shed all the splendour of her noon,
Her smile is chilly, and her beam,
In that time of dreariness, will seem
(So like you gather in your breath)
A portrait taken after death.
And boyhood is a summer sun
Whose waning is the dreariest one-
For all we live to know is known,
And all we seek to keep hath flown-
Let life, then, as the day-flower, fall
With the noon-day beauty- which is all.
I reach'd my home- my home no more
For all had flown who made it so.
I pass'd from out its mossy door,
And, tho' my tread was soft and low,
A voice came from the threshold stone
Of one whom I had earlier known-
O, I defy thee, Hell, to show
On beds of fire that burn below,
A humbler heart- a deeper woe.
Father, I firmly do believe-
I know- for Death, who comes for me
From regions of the blest afar,
Where there is nothing to deceive,
Hath left his iron gate ajar,
And rays of truth you cannot see
Are flashing thro' Eternity-
I do believe that Eblis hath
A snare in every human path-
Else how, when in the holy grove
I wandered of the idol, Love,
Who daily scents his snowy wings
With incense of burnt offerings
From the most unpolluted things,
Whose pleasant bowers are yet so riven
Above with trellis'd rays from Heaven,
No mote may shun- no tiniest fly-
The lightning of his eagle eye-
How was it that Ambition crept,
Unseen, amid the revels there,
Till growing bold, he laughed and leapt
In the tangles of Love's very hair?
"The bowers whereat, in dreams, I see"
Edgar Allan Poe
The bowers whereat, in dreams, I see
The wantonest singing birds,
Are lips- and all thy melody
Of lip-begotten words-
Thine eyes, in Heaven of heart enshrined,
Then desolately fall,
O God! on my funereal mind
Like starlight on a pall-
Thy heart- thy heart!- I wake and sigh,
And sleep to dream till day
Of the truth that gold can never buy-
Of the baubles that it may.
The Bells
Edgar Allan Poe
Hear the sledges with the bells-
Silver bells!
What a world of merriment their melody foretells!
How they tinkle, tinkle, tinkle,
In the icy air of night!
While the stars that oversprinkle
All the heavens, seem to twinkle
With a crystalline delight;
Keeping time, time, time,
In a sort of Runic rhyme,
To the tintinnabulation that so musically wells
From the bells, bells, bells, bells,
Bells, bells, bells-
From the jingling and the tinkling of the bells.
Hear the mellow wedding bells,
Golden bells!
What a world of happiness their harmony foretells!
Through the balmy air of night
How they ring out their delight!
From the molten-golden notes,
And an in tune,
What a liquid ditty floats
To the turtle-dove that listens, while she gloats
On the moon!
Oh, from out the sounding cells,
What a gush of euphony voluminously wells!
How it swells!
How it dwells
On the Future! how it tells
Of the rapture that impels
To the swinging and the ringing
Of the bells, bells, bells,
Of the bells, bells, bells,bells,
Bells, bells, bells-
To the rhyming and the chiming of the bells!
Hear the loud alarum bells-
Brazen bells!
What a tale of terror, now, their turbulency tells!
In the startled ear of night
How they scream out their affright!
Too much horrified to speak,
They can only shriek, shriek,
Out of tune,
In a clamorous appealing to the mercy of the fire,
In a mad expostulation with the deaf and frantic fire,
Leaping higher, higher, higher,
With a desperate desire,
And a resolute endeavor,
Now- now to sit or never,
By the side of the pale-faced moon.
Oh, the bells, bells, bells!
What a tale their terror tells
Of Despair!
How they clang, and clash, and roar!
What a horror they outpour
On the bosom of the palpitating air!
Yet the ear it fully knows,
By the twanging,
And the clanging,
How the danger ebbs and flows:
Yet the ear distinctly tells,
In the jangling,
And the wrangling,
How the danger sinks and swells,
By the sinking or the swelling in the anger of the bells-
Of the bells-
Of the bells, bells, bells,bells,
Bells, bells, bells-
In the clamor and the clangor of the bells!
Hear the tolling of the bells-
Iron Bells!
What a world of solemn thought their monody compels!
In the silence of the night,
How we shiver with affright
At the melancholy menace of their tone!
For every sound that floats
From the rust within their throats
Is a groan.
And the people- ah, the people-
They that dwell up in the steeple,
All Alone
And who, tolling, tolling, tolling,
In that muffled monotone,
Feel a glory in so rolling
On the human heart a stone-
They are neither man nor woman-
They are neither brute nor human-
They are Ghouls:
And their king it is who tolls;
And he rolls, rolls, rolls,
A paean from the bells!
And his merry bosom swells
With the paean of the bells!
And he dances, and he yells;
Keeping time, time, time,
In a sort of Runic rhyme,
To the paean of the bells-
Of the bells:
Keeping time, time, time,
In a sort of Runic rhyme,
To the throbbing of the bells-
Of the bells, bells, bells-
To the sobbing of the bells;
Keeping time, time, time,
As he knells, knells, knells,
In a happy Runic rhyme,
To the rolling of the bells-
Of the bells, bells, bells:
To the tolling of the bells,
Of the bells, bells, bells, bells-
Bells, bells, bells-
To the moaning and the groaning of the bells.
The City in the Sea
Edgar Allan Poe
Lo! Death has reared himself a throne
In a strange city lying alone
Far down within the dim West,
Where the good and the bad and the worst and the best
Have gone to their eternal rest.
There shrines and palaces and towers
(Time-eaten towers that tremble not!)
Resemble nothing that is ours.
Around, by lifting winds forgot,
Resignedly beneath the sky
The melancholy waters lie.
No rays from the holy heaven come down
On the long night-time of that town;
But light from out the lurid sea
Streams up the turrets silently-
Gleams up the pinnacles far and free-
Up domes- up spires- up kingly halls-
Up fanes- up Babylon-like walls-
Up shadowy long-forgotten bowers
Of sculptured ivy and stone flowers-
Up many and many a marvellous shrine
Whose wreathed friezes intertwine
The viol, the violet, and the vine.
Resignedly beneath the sky
The melancholy waters lie.
So blend the turrets and shadows there
That all seem pendulous in air,
While from a proud tower in the town
Death looks gigantically down.
There open fanes and gaping graves
Yawn level with the luminous waves;
But not the riches there that lie
In each idol's diamond eye-
Not the gaily-jewelled dead
Tempt the waters from their bed;
For no ripples curl, alas!
Along that wilderness of glass-
No swellings tell that winds may be
Upon some far-off happier sea-
No heavings hint that winds have been
On seas less hideously serene.
But lo, a stir is in the air!
The wave- there is a movement there!
As if the towers had thrust aside,
In slightly sinking, the dull tide-
As if their tops had feebly given
A void within the filmy Heaven.
The waves have now a redder glow-
The hours are breathing faint and low-
And when, amid no earthly moans,
Down, down that town shall settle hence,
Hell, rising from a thousand thrones,
Shall do it reverence.

Punk legends combine old and new footage in new clip for their latest album's title-track
Green Day have shared a new video for their track 'Revolution Radio'.
The song is lifted from the band's latest album, their 12th LP of the same name. 'Revolution Radio' was released in October 2016.
The group have now shared this new video, which intersperses new live footage with clips of one of the band's earliest gigs. Watch below.
Meanwhile, Green Day sparked rumours that they may be working on new music after they were spotted in the studio.
Perth-based producer Charlie Young – who has worked with Macklemore, Lil Jon and The Naked and Famous – posted a number of photos of frontman Billie Joe Armstrong to social media last month. On Instagram, he wrote in a caption: "Recording Green Day."
Green Day are due back in the UK later in June for a series of huge outdoors shows, including one at London's Hyde Park as part of the British Summer Time series. They will be supported on the day by an impressive bill of support acts.
See Green Day's full UK/Ireland tour schedule beneath:
Belfast, Ormeau Park (June 28)
Dublin, Royal Hospital Kilmainham (29)
London, Hyde Park (July 1)
Sheffield Arena (July 3)
Glasgow, Bellahouston Park (July 4)
"You know it's great, we're playing songs off 'Nimrod', 'Kerplunk', the new record, 'American Idiot', songs that are off 'Insomniac' that we haven't played in over 20 years," frontman Billie Joe Armstrong told NME when asked about the tour. "We played these shows for the hardcore fans in the theatres and clubs and we just had a blast, and you could tell because the energy in the crowd was energising us."

Finally finished the back of mum's tunic!  The shaping is a bit odd as you can see, it's completely straight then about six rows worth of casting off stitches at the beginning of each row and then…. that's it!No wonder I was getting bored!  The front is a bit more interesting though.  It's split half way up so it's worked straight for about 14 inches then each side is worked on it's own. I think that's about as interesting as it gets, so this might be a long project!

I've also added to my queue Na Craga  from Alice Starmore's "Aran Knitting".  This is for my dad, but I've yet to find the right wool yarn for it.  You can't have a fisherman's sweater that's not made out of wool!  And there's a new addition to the extended family due in September so I'm thinking of knitting some cute baby things too!

 Poison_kittyhttp://firstname.lastname@example.com://kittensyarn.blogspot.com/2013/05/wordless-wednesday-dave-modelling.htmltag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1355502141379728978.post-88752526192813340312013-05-11T09:13:00.001+01:002013-05-11T09:13:48.557+01:00Calculations
Ok so I confess I'm still on the back of this damn tunic.  I've just started my fourth ball and my fifteenth pattern repeat.  I've made some calculations, which are as follows:

Each repeat is about an inch long

Each repeat takes about an hour

The ribbing was about five and a half inches

Therefore:

For twenty eight and a half inches I need twenty three pattern repeats (including ribbing)

The remaining eight I have to finish should take me eight hours solid knitting

I'd like to say this only takes me to the shoulder shaping, but at that point the end is in sight.  So technically if I knit all today without pause, I should get it finished!  Watch this space….

As promised, this is the tunic I'm knitting for mum!  When I bought this pattern, I made the same mistake you probably are right now – ooo, it's cabled!  But no, that's not cabling, it's actually unblocked lace!  Lesson learned – read the pattern before paying for it, or you really will pay for it later!

The yarn is Freedom Spirit by Twilleys, and is 100% wool in a colour which is a loosely spun mix of caramel, brown and red plies that  stripes subtly over a few rows.  I had to cut a small amount out because of a rather unattractive slub, but that didn't seem to make a difference to the stripe.  It was actually discontinued when we bought it, and on sale at half price – absolute bargain!

So far I've done 42 rows of rib and 48 rows of pattern, which is about twelve inches, really slow going for over a fortnights worth of work!  There's another sixteen inches worth before I even start the shoulder shaping (I don't think there's any sleeve shaping, but I might be wrong – at least I hope I am because sewing it together is going to be a nightmare!) which is going to be a bit of a faff – I'm intending to butcher the pattern a bit so I can use a three-needle bind-off for the shoulder seem, I always think that looks a lot neater and much more solid than I can manage with a yarn needle!
 Poison_kittyhttp://firstname.lastname@example.com://kittensyarn.blogspot.com/2013/05/freedom-spirit-tunic.htmltag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1355502141379728978.post-25533230916079811222013-04-27T20:04:00.001+01:002013-04-27T20:04:43.468+01:00This is another one of those "I was gone but now I'm back" posts
It's true, I've neglected this blog AGAIN.  The truth is that I've been really busy, and I've been meaning to write, but never did.  Yesterday I read an article about a site called 750words.com, which basically encourages you to splurge 750 words in complete anonymity and privacy with the aim of increasing productivity and inspiration.  So over the past two days I've written over 1500 words, and some of it did indeed have some real gems to post here!

So, between the last post and this one, I've knit two hats, a scarf, a hoody for a little'un, a dog jumper and I've started a tunic for my mum!  I did say I've been busy!  Sadly I took zero photos, so there's nothing to show here for my efforts, but I can at least tell you about them!

I knit a hat and scarf set for my auntie in February just before we had that sudden cold snap – right when you want to have just received a knitted gift!  I knit it in a simple basket stitch, from a red shiny yarn by Patons i think.. helpful i know!  It was very soft though and I was very happy with such a simple knit.

The second hat was in a chunky variegated blue yarn which i also knit in a sort of basket stitch, this time for my mum.  Again i cant remember the name of the yarn, I may have had the time to knit but not the time to write all this down!  I had just under half the yarn left so i started knitting a hat for myself, but havent finished it yet.  I had a horrible suspicion that I would run out of yarn, so i did what every sensible knitter does – put it to one side in case it magically spawns more yarn!

The next thing I knit was a hoody for my sweet little niece.  It was using some yarn I was gifted – already knit up into something else so I can claim I never actually knew the brand of yarn!  I designed a top down raglan cardigan with moss-stitch button-bands and cuffs, and a lovely King Charles Brocade through the body.  And of course it had a hood, with the same moss-stitch border around the edge.  I finished it off with some lovely pastel-coloured flower buttons.  I've been intending to write up the pattern for this but not got around to it yet!

The last thing I've finished is a wee jumper for Rosie.  She's been feeling the cold of late – after all she is quite a slight little dog, so I butchered a drops pattern that was meant to include all kinds of intarsia and fanciness which didn't get included in my version.  I used a striped yarn (Striped, not self striping – so the resultant effect is  more like awful camouflage) and knit the size meant for Chihuahuas, but it is still a bit too big!  I will probably knit her another one but this time not do as many rows before the split for the leg holes comes, and also the small strip that goes between the legs (and eventually is picked up from for the leg-cuffs) needs to be 2-4 stitches narrower.  She really is tiny!

Next time I will show you (with pictures, I promise!) the tunic I'm knitting for mum.  It really is going extremely slowly, possibly because I'm comparing it to my last few FO's, which have all been quite small and quick!

You know when you have a really great idea in your head for a knitted project, and then you spend AGES on it and it doesn't work out too well?  That's what my green jacket thing is doing to me right now.

For some reason in my head, I didn't allow for stockinette to curl in quite the amount that it is doing, and that's making me really really sad.  I didn't want to have to use rib at the bottom edge, but it looks like I'm going to be forced to.  I've already undone the applied i-cord I'd used across the bottom (twice, because you know I might have done it wrong somehow the first time…) and I'm thinking about ripping back about ten rows and ribbing from there.  This designing business is not as easy as it looks!

I finally got round to buying the beads for the Luna Moth shawl I'm making.  I know I said I was going to get the matte black beads, but I ended up getting about 30 grams of the Pebblestone mix instead!  Either I'm going to end up with a lot left over, or I'm only just going to have enough!  I'm about 4 rows and a cast off away from finishing though and I've still got plenty left.

I can't take any proper photos because the weather here is so dismal.  When it's not raining it's dull and overcast.  I wish it would hurry up and snow!  It is the puppies' first Christmas so we'll be taking plenty of photos.

Talking of Christmas, we've just bought our first real Christmas tree!  I know it's a bit early, but I couldn't resist decorating it!  Dave is very interested in the shiny gold baubles because he can see his reflection in them.  I woke up this morning to a few (but not many) needles on the floor, so I'm hoping it will last all the way through the rest of November and December to Christmas day!

You know when they make those amazing programs but only show half the season and then have a really big break?  Well GAAA Wordless Wednesday is doing that.  You see, I'm really lazy and haven't finished the grafting on two of the squares, neither have I designed and knit the 25th OR Started on the edging.  I'm guessing it's going to be well beyond Christmas until I get back to it since I've got lots of other things on the go too.  If you'll all bare with me, one day you might see the finished article!

It was my birthday on Tuesday!  I thoroughly enjoyed myself, got lots of chocolate and flowers and cards, and was properly spoilt.

I spent the morning at Black Sheep Wool which is sort of on the border between Croft and Culcheth – the posh bit of Warrington.  I'm definitely going to go back there, they just have so much stuff!

I bought this shawl pin to go with both my Garden Path and Aeolian.  I wore garden path on Thursday when we all went out for dinner, and it looked gorgeous!

I also bought some 3.25mm Symphonie interchangables to go in my collection, and some really sweet sheepy stitch markers by Lantern Moon.

I bought two hundred grams of Rowan Baby Alpaca DK – I'm going to make a vest top with some sort of lacy design that I'm yet to devise!

Remember ages ago I knit a ten stitch blanket? I used 500g of Sirdar Denim Tweed I'd bought on sale and didn't like when knit up, but poppy adopted it even when it was washcloth sized and so it became a dog blanket.  Cut to the end of April and poppy gave birth on it!   Five chewing puppies later and it ended up with this big hole!

I had to wash it before I repaired it, so I undid some of the knitting around the hole and tied it all in a knot so it didn't get snagged in our brand spanking new washing machine (for a yarn I dislike so much, it washes really well –several boil washes later and it's not actually as faded as it seems in these photos).  Two hours and some fabric conditioner later and I shoved some needles through the stitches and began knitting up the long strand at one end.  I left a long enough strand for the cast-off and then put those stitches on a holder and switched ends.  There wasn't as much to work with on this end so I joined some white acrylic and knit double with the old yarn for a few rows to try and make the repair a bit stronger.

When both ends met, I used a three needle cast-off, (although it was more like a two needle and a holder cast-off!) which was made more difficult than usual because the first stitch of each row is a knit-two-together – this joins each strip of ten stitches to the last strip. All in all (not including the washing or the searching for needles I used last and holders and so on!)  The repair took me about an hour.

The important this is that it's not going to come undone in a hurry - if this was something for a human I would have bit the bullet and grafted but thankfully my dogs aren't so picky!

Warning: Lots of cute pictures and videos!

About six months ago we had a litter of puppies from our gorgeous jack Russell, Poppy.

On the 30th of April 2012 at 3:30pm Poppy started going into labour – an hour an a half before I had to leave for an exam!  Luckily the other half was on hand to keep a check on her until I got home.  At around 6:45 she had the first pup – Ralph, who was huge!  I was back by seven, and no sooner had I walked through the door when Dave arrived, closely followed by Rosie.  She had a bit of a break then, and half an hour later Wee Man and Bramble came into the world!  Wee Man was so-called because he was the runt at birth although now it's definitely Rosie!

We didn't really take many pictures after these until their eyes opened, which was funny to watch too!  Dave wasn't so sure so only had one eye open for about two days.  Rosie opened her eyes and then closed them again until the day after!

Here's Ralph and Wee Man, who is pulling tongues:

Once their eyes were open they started getting a bit more active.  We had built them a  little cardboard enclosure to keep them from getting lost in the living room (and to keep the mess in one place!).  It was about now that they started escaping to explore more of their surroundings!

Rosie (left), Dave (right) and Bramble (on his back):

Ralph (top left) Wee Man (top right) Rosie (middle) Dave (bottom left) Bramble (bottom right):

One of Rosie's favourite pass-times is picking on bramble.  Here she's about to nibble his leg.  Poppy's favourite pass-time is cleaning things, and here she is cleaning Dave's ear!

Here's some videos of them playing in the garden (They might take a while to load depending on your connection):

Sadly at seven weeks, we lost wee man, but Dave and Ralph are still with us and Rosie and Bramble are with my parents, getting spoilt rotten!

It's amazing how long it takes to knit a sleeve.  I'm still on the first one of my secret project, but at least I'm an inch or so from the end.  I'm going to try putting a row in between each bit of joined i-cord because my other attempt came out a bit tight.  The bad thing though about sleeves is that I'm about to do it all over again!

The Luna Moth has stalled in favour of the simpleness of the above project.  I'm up to the fourth chart repeat and I'm deliberating a fifth since it's still quite short, but I'm not sure how long it'll go after blocking...  I think the plan is going to be to finish the repeats before I start the edging  so that I have a better idea of how many beads I will have to buy.  I've decided on the matte black because I like the oily colours and it will break up the darkness of the yarn.

My mum's asked for a new jacket for Christmas.  You might remember I knit her a jacket for Christmas 2009 (and blogged about it here and here).  She's asked for Therapi from knitty's winter 2008 issue and I've been looking at yarn – she's asked for grey again!  I'm not ordering the yarn yet though since I'm going t be good and finish some other things first!

Lastly I've still got more Great American Afghan squares to photograph, although I've still not finished the grafting on two of the squares.   I bought a new Samsung Galaxy Ace on Tuesday so I'm going to try and work out how to use it and hopefully get those pictures sorted at the same time!

Why does casting off the body of something always give that false feeling of being finished?

I used a 3 stitch I-Cord to finish the bottom of the jacket (I tried a 4 stitch one but it didn't look very I-Cordy!) but I'm unconvinced that it's not too tight, so I may have to undo that at a later date, depending on how it wears.  The bottom wasn't meant to pull closed anyway so I may yet get a reprieve.  I stopped about an inch and a half from where I had measured to, but I don't think it will be a problem – in fact I think it might look better that way anyway – so  I've started the sleeve with probably the last 50g of the first ball.  The sleeves wont have any shaping to them, and will be finished in the same way with I-Cord.  I've stopped having that nagging feeling that there won't be enough yarn, but i doubt that will last for long!

I cast on Luna Moth yesterday!  I guess that's not all that much of a surprise since I've been chomping at the bit to get started.  I realised that 4.5mm needles were what I should use so I didn't need to wait until I'd finished with them from my other project.

Originally I thought the yarn was Double Knit, however I started to doubt that because of the thinness of it.  At 15 Wraps per inch (wrap the yarn around a knitting needle lots of times, then measure how many wraps are in an inch of needle)  it's actually what Ravelry decide is fingering, or 4ply.  It might still plump up a bit if it is indeed machine yarn and the oil is washed out, but even then I think the blocking process will preserve most of it's laciness

It's still at that awkward stage where it's too small to really see any sort of pattern – I've knit chart A which is 14 rows long and half of chart b (so about 10 rows of that).  I imagine it will speed up once I learn the pattern repeat better, but at the moment it's slow going and partly due to using black wool which is difficult to see at the best of times!  I'm having to use the pattern for the Aran version because although I said in a previous post that there was a 4ply version, I can't appear to find it anymore.  I've noticed on Ravelry that a lot of people using 4ply have just added an extra repeat of the chart, so it doesn't seem to be much of a pain to adapt.

It came today – that's almost like overnight delivery!  Here are some pictures:

It's Purple and gold brocade, with purple cotton insides.  There are lots of lovely compartments for storing all my bits and pieces such as cable buttons, extenders and keys, as well as cables and needle tips.  In the pocket with the press stud I keep a needle gauge because the one thing i dislike about symphony needles is that the size printed on them rubs off very easily.

Needless to say I'm very pleased with my purchases!  All i need to do now is fill some of the gaps in my needle collection (I have more than is shown here!) but with a birthday and Christmas coming up, I don't think that will be hard!

Not that I'm ready to cast off just yet (although that mini deadline is certainly approaching!) but I have been thinking about how I'm going to do it.  You see the main part of the thing is stockinette, so likely to curl without a little weight to the bottom, so I'm thinking possibly an applied i-cord cast-off.  However, part of the last row will be vertical ribbing, so needs to retain that stretchy look, which i-cord is definitely not.  Should i just gather some of the purl stitches as I'm casting off, or do something different?  At least I've still got a bit of time to think about it!

Monday: Cone of black yarn arrives, promised by mother-in-law, gets buried in van-full of bedroom and living room furniture, bed and half a tonne of curtains and bed linen.  I do love when my family have a sort out!

Thursday: Rediscover yarn and idly search out shawl patterns that require double-knit.  Wonder if yarn really is double-knit but then remember as yarn is definitely thicker than 4ply and is technically meant for machine knitting then is probably oiled (and so looks thinner anyway).  Find perfect shawl pattern for mother-in-law.

Friday: Decide said shawl would be better in something chunkier, like Aran, but as sister-in-law dyes and cuts my hair for free and does a far better job than any hair dress I've ever been to, then she definitely should have something special for Christmas.  Spend evening trawling Ravelry for more shawl patterns.  Find Lunar Moth Shawl but realise they only have the pattern for the aran, 4ply and laceweight versions.  Decide to fudge it.

Sunday: Still resisting urge to put super secret project on holders and cast on for shawl, as shawl needs same needles.  Have just got to patterned bit in super secret project, so will at least finish the end of the body first – that way no loose ends!

I told you in a previous post about knitting some Anastasia socks and I've finally gotten around to photographing them:

I had to take the off to do it, as they are really comfy!  I knit these on my 2.5mm Purple Pins using Wendy Happy, I think the colour was called Hyacinth.  I think for future socks I'll be using 56 stitches not the 60 this pattern calls for, as those extra stitches really make a difference!

Best of Week Ending 8/30/2015
I wanted to post a few of my favorites from the last week of shooting. My week started out shooting boys soccer for the Idaho Press Tribune featuring Boise High and Skyview High. Here are a couple of my favorites from that night.
If you would like to view the entire gallery from this event, check it out at http://www.lorenorr.com/p211042937.
Next up was Friday Night Football, featuring Mountain View vs Nampa in a 5A battle. Even though the game ended up not being that close, I ended up with some great shots.
Once again, a great night of shooting, to view the entire gallery go to http://www.lorenorr.com/p179259072.
Last up was a cross-state battle between Bishop Manogue from Reno, Nevada and Bishop Kelly from Boise, Idaho. I wanted to call it the "Battle of the Bishops" but I was a little concerned I might catch some flack, so I decided to just use it in my blog. Here are some of my favorite images from that game.
I had a lot of great images from this game and to view them all, please go to http://www.lorenorr.com/p506245909. I hope you enjoy these images and please check out my website at www.lorenorr.com to check out all my images from a variety of sporting events. Coming up this next week, I will be shooting the epic football showdown between the University of Washington and Boise State as well as Pacific vs. College of Idaho. I will also be covering, at least tentatively, Borah High vs. Kuna High. Stay tuned for a Best Of post from those events as well.

Basque Soccer Friendly
A few of my favorites from last weekends Basque Soccer Friendly held in Boise at Albertsons Stadium. The soccer friendly featured La Liga's Athletic Club de Bilbao and Liga MX's Club Tijuana Xoloitzxuintles de Caliente. It was a blast shooting the event, and I have to say it was a little weird walking around Albertsons Stadium and walking on real grass!
The night ended up being a lot of fun and I made a few really good images. The event served as a brief primer for the upcoming high school and college soccer season which is just a month or so away. Take a look at the entire gallery at http://lorenorrphotography.zenfolio.com/f900415376. Please contact me if you would like custom coverage of your athlete this Fall, I will be covering high school football, soccer and volleyball starting in just a couple of months!
Best of 2014-2105 - Part 3 - Boys Basketball
It's time to look at part 3 of my "Best Of" 2014-2015 which is going to highlight boys basketball. So far, the majority of my "Best Of" postings have been outside sports, which for the most part are easier photographs to take, at least from a technical perspective. The reason that I say that is outside, daylight photography allows for the use of more entry level equipment, cameras and lenses. When you move inside, the limits of a cheaper lens starts to bubble to the surface. A closed environment with poor lighting is the biggest challenge in shooting high school basketball. On the flip side, access is much easier and trust me, the opportunity to shoot basketball is almost never ending, there are multiple games almost every night. Lets take a look at a couple of shots.
This image comes from the state basketball tournament, which pitted Firth vs. West Jefferson. The image was taken using a Canon 7D Mark II and a Canon 70-200mm f/2,8 lens. The aperture was set at f/2.8, the shutter speed was 1/640 sec. at an ISO of 2000. Fortunately, the 7D Mark II does an exceptional job in poor lighting situations, but in reality, f/2.8 and an ISO of 2000 really isn't that bad when comparing high school gyms.
This shot pits Fruitland vs Shelley with the same equipment, although the camera settings are a bit more reflective of the poor lighting, ISO is 4000, shutter speed is 1/500 sec. and a aperture of f/2.8.
I love the action captured here and the effort being shown by the athletes face. This frame was captured when Grangeville faced Parma.
This image seemed to really capture the physicality of the match up between Kellogg and Weiser during the State Basketball Tournament.
In this action shot between Marsh Valley and South Fremont, I was sitting under the basket and used a Sigma 18-35mm lens which I added this year to my equipment bag. I like the wide angle perspective. It is nice to give a larger feel to the action and is a nice change of pace.
A nice perspective from sitting on the floor, allows for the face, ball and the hoop all in one shot.
Nice tight shot of an aggressive move to the baseline.
Another wide angle shot from a low perspective.
One of my favorites from the past season. Captures the players face, the ball and the sideline and the extreme amount of effort that these athletes put out.
A final shot that sums up a great boys basketball season. I shot 14 boys high school basketball games over the season and had a blast doing it. If your interested in improving your basketball photos, drop me a line and lets see what we can do to improve your basketball action photos. Next up in the "Best Of" 2014-2015 is girls basketball. Please check it out and share with your high sports enthusiast friends and family.
Best of 2014-2015 Sports Images (Soccer and Softball) - part 2
When last I left off with my "Best Of" 2014-15 sports images, I said that the next post would be soccer. Well that is true but I am going to add a couple of softball images as well. So to get on with the soccer images, the sad thing is that in 2014-2105 season I only shot a couple of soccer games, but the couple that I did shot resulted in a couple of great images.
Just to set the scene, this is a early evening photo taken towards the end of the soccer season featuring a District soccer battle between cross town rivals Caldwell High School and Skyview High School from Napma. I used a Canon 7D with the shutter speed set to 1/2000 sec., and an ISO of 1000. I was using my Canon 300 f 2.8, set at 2.8.
There are at least three things that I require in almost every sports picture that I take. First the players eyes have to be in focus. In my humble opinion, the eyes and facial expressions are one the best ways to illustrate the emotions that sports brings to the surface of those that participate in sports. In this shot, the faces and the emotions that are captured tell the whole story.
My second sports requirement is that the ball be in the image. Sometimes this isn't an absolute requirement, but in this case it helps portray the excitement and explosiveness of the situation. Getting the ball and the faces in the same picture is just a matter of practice and understanding the sport you are shooting to know where the players and the ball will collide.
The last requirement of a good sports picture, in most cases, is the creamy, out of focus background. If you look at most action shots you will see that the action is frozen but the background is nice and blurry, sometimes it actually takes on a kind of abstract look all to its self. This image has both, the frozen action of the players is achieved by using a shutter speed of 1/2000 and the creamy background comes from a aperture setting of f/2.8.
Another shot from the same game noted above, with very similar settings, Canon 7D, shutter speed of 1/1600 sec., ISO of 1000 and using the same Canon 300mm lens with an aperture setting of f/2.8. All three elements combine into a great shot of emotions, action and the ball!
Next up are a couple of my favorite high school softball images from the the 2014-2015 season. These images all came from the District softball tournament action between Vallivue High School from Caldwell and Capital High School from Boise.
You have got to love the concentration and form that you see in pitchers and hitters. You will notice that most of the three principles I noted before apply here, the face and eyes, the ball and a creamy background. The background is more of a challenge in the second picture, so you do the best you can to make sure the background doesn't distract from the overall impact of your image.
This last image just kind of sums everything up. There is no ball and the background is nondescript, but the players face says it all, the joy of touching home plate after a home run at the district softball tournament. It doesn't get much better than that.
That is all for my second installment of 2014-2015 "Best Of" sports images. Please share your thoughts by adding a comment or two and make sure and give me a follow on Facebook and Twitter by clicking the links above. Next up on the 2014-2015 "Best Of" will be Boys Basketball.
Best of 2014-2015 Sports Images (Football)
I have finally gotten around to looking back on the 2014-2015 high school sports seasons and have picked out a few of my favorites. I probably would not of done this except that www.Idahosports.com is putting together a "best of" piece and they had asked me for a few shots. Although I had 1000's of images to go through, I did manage to pick a few of my favorites. Since there are a few different sports, I am going to break this up into sport specific blogs. First up ... football.
The thing about year end reviews, or "best of" types of exercises is that by doing this it really got me fired up for the 2015-2016 season. Next up - Soccer!

Nerve Hacking Revives Paralyzed Limbs
A neuron cell diagram – click the image for more details
Neural engineer Matthew Schiefer may have discovered an important lead in one of neurology's most challenging problems: how to reanimate paralyzed limbs. Working at Case Western Reserve University, Schiefer was able to "hack" a nerve bundle in an unconscious subject's leg using a small eletrode (pictured below), causing the leg to twitch .
Popular Science writes:
"Schiefer's new device flattens out the nerve fibers, exposing more of them to the full electrical current. By attaching this flatter contact to the femoral nerve, Schiefer succeeded in activating four of the six leg muscles needed for a person to go from sitting to standing. Additionally, the flexing knee muscles actually generated the level of force needed to lift someone out of their chair."
While significantly more work and research will be required before patients will be able to effectively control previously immobilized limbs with their brain, Schiefer's work is an innovative and hopeful start.

Ross, Whortleberry, and Big Bad Luck Ponds Trail is a 10.7 mile moderately trafficked out and back trail located near Indian Lake, New York that features a waterfall and is rated as moderate. The trail offers a number of activity options and is best used from May until May. Dogs are also able to use this trail.
dog friendly
cross country skiing
nature trips
paddle sports
trail running
wild flowers
over grown
Snowshoed this trail just up to Ross Pond. Started snowing on the way back, very pretty. I intend to return in a warmer season as I can only imagine how nice the ponds must look when not covered in snow and ice. I did not know that there is also a trail to some waterfalls from here. Must be quite new since its DEC marked but not on my NatGeo map. Def will check that out in the spring too.
FYI-the trail head is actually several miles east on rte 28 than the listing shows it on the map.

With a view to the anticipated increase in the amount of ethylene moved around the world by ship, and also of other products such as mixes of ethane and higher hydrocarbons,this paper will describe a gas tanker with a cargo volume of approximately 30,000 m3. This vessel has been based on a new tank design that enables the accommodation of a relatively large loading volume in a ship with given parameters like length and beam. Existing ethylene carriers of the semi-refrigerated type have a transport volume up to 12 000 m3. They allow a transport pressure up to 5-7 bar, even if ethylene is transported at atmospheric pressure and at a temperature of 104°C (169 K). By using a higher tank pressure, these ships are able to transport a wide range of other liquid gases and chemicals besides ethylene. Existing liquefied gas carriers of bigger sizes (approx. 20,000 m3 to 75,000 m3) are designed as fully refrigerated types. In order to offer to the future gas transport market a most flexible gas carrier, we decided to design the 30,000 m3 ethylene, LPG, NH3 carrier as a semi-refrigerated type.
