Laminine Helped With Stress and Depression
It was like an energetic calm came across me and I had all these things I needed to do to get on this trip. I hadn't packed. I hadn't done laundry. I hadn't done anything and this energetic calm came across me and ever since then, it's been like this every day, it is like living stress free. I call it living life like this is heaven on earth. That has been my experience from day one until now.
All the things that we worry about, they're there, but the peace is within myself. That's my experience and I'm really looking forward to other things happening. Everything else, I don't have any health issues, but everything has been, I feel very, very relaxed and calm about everything. Thank you.
Laminine Testimonials & Reviews From Doctors
This is probably the most incredible product I've seen in 35 years of practice. I've never seen a single product do what this does and as cost effective as this is for clients. I've been retired for four years and when Mark called me from Nebraska to tell me about the product and we both really respect each other and the research we do when we find out about a product.
We both just knew that this was something incredible and I refer to this as the baby boomer supplement because it takes care of everything we have as baby boomers – pain, low energy, stamina, being able to sleep, getting out of depression.
Laminine and Traumatic Brain Injury & Depression
I want to tell you a little bit about me and why Laminine has made such a big difference in my life. I grew up in Canada and I played professional football there for ten years. I've had 14 different surgeries during and after football, but it was worth it. I loved playing the game. I got to do what I love and they even paid me for it. What I didn't understand and what I've realized since is a lot of the damage done to my brain.
In a short period of time, less than a week of taking Laminine that all changed. I'd wake up in the morning and I'd go "wow, I feel great. I don't have that feeling anymore" and it just really changed my life and what it has also done for me is made me passionate about sharing because I know there's thousands of athletes out there.
Laminine For Depression ADHD & Aspergers
Well, about three years ago, my mom died and I was on antidepressants for about a year and a half, spiraling down hill and it's not something that I wanted to stay on forever. My insurance was going up and I didn't want to remain on that forever. I wanted something else to take its place and somebody suggested trying Laminine and that I might be able to get the same results through that and I noticed the changes almost immediately.
I was actually able to wean myself off of the antidepressants and use the Laminine instead and I think I feel a lot better. I feel a lot healthier. I don't get headaches anymore either.
Now I feel great! I've got a lot of energy. I'm more even keeled on my moods. I'm certainly not feeling as blue as I was before. I feel like I can handle life now and I don't have to depend on a drug to do it.
Laminine & Aneurysms – A Testimonial From Kevin Sorbo
Kevin suffered an aneurysm and a series of three strokes and spent the next four months in rehabilitation. I basically went from a guy that was 38 years old and probably in better shape than most guys in their 20s to a 90 year old man within seconds. I was introduced to Laminine and I have found it to be rather amazing in terms of lowering mood swings, to feeling more alert and alive.
I have certainly found my attention level spiking. My retention level is spiking. As an actor, I've got to memorize a lot of lines and I just finished two movies back to back. It's important that I'm on my game.
Laminine is certainly something to me that has just put an extra spark in my life and talking to the people who take it, there is a common denominator in there. Kevin credits his full recovery to the encouragement of his family, healthy living and Laminine.
Laminine Helped With My Celiac Disease & Increased My Energy
It has made me happier. It is called the happy pill. It has made me calmer. It has made me more focused. I have more energy and I sleep better. I am so grateful for this product.
I have a lot of things the company says it does that I'm seeing it more in my body. It's kind of touching a whole bunch of areas. It does affect your libido. It does affect your stamina.
I have a nephew who has had celiac disease. He's been taking very high doses of Prevacid and he is off Prevacid for two or three weeks now and is doing incredible. He says he has never felt better. Another friend of mine has been wearing glasses for the last three or four years. He started taking this and after a week he can see better without his glasses.
Laminine Effects on Emotions, Anger and Diabetes
I've been diabetic for a little over a year. After taking Laminine, I feel like I have a reason to get up. I'm a lot happier and it really does work. One of the biggest things for me was I have real bad nerve pain. I've been on all kinds of pain medications, including morphine. This actually took most of the pain away. I still have a little pain, but not like what I did have.
I have actually lost seven pounds. I lost two pounds the first week, a pound and a half the second week and then about three pounds, a little over three pounds the following week. I feel that the road that I'm on with talking to my doctor and her agreeing that Laminine is good for me and she's endorsing me to keep taking Laminine.
Laminine Returns Kidney Function To Normal in 5 Months
Hi, my name is Lane Barker. I'm 52 years old and I'm excited to tell you about a miraculous experience I had with an amazing product that actually helped my kidney function go completely normal after it was in serious trouble. Laminine is not made specifically for kidney disease or anything like that. It's something that just helps your body heal in all kinds of different ways.
For six or seven years I had a terrible pain in my lower back, Within three weeks of taking the Laminine it had completely disappeared and it's been completely gone since I took the Laminine so it's been you know six or seven months with no pain at all. It's completely gone away.
Another thing that happened besides the triglycerides level, the kidney and the pain is it raises the serotonin levels and so I've had no depression. I've been very happy and I sleep well and that's common with everyone that takes it.
Excessive Cortisol Levels as a Result of Stress
In May, 1983 I was attacked at gun point, beaten and sexually assaulted by four illegal immigrants in Hollywood, Florida. That attack led to my being exposed to and infected with HIV disease and eventually full blown AIDS. I had a t-cell count in the double digits and for much of the next ten years along with suffering several bouts of pneumocystis pneumonia, cytomegalovirus and toxoplasmosis.
Now fibroblastic growth factors are sort of like the rebar that a construction worker uses to reinforce the concrete, the strength of the concrete in the overall structure. It stimulates the structure of unprogrammed stem cells which can go directly to wherever they're needed, sort of to fill in the gaps wherever disease and imbalance exists in your body.
Laminine has transformed my life and the lives of those entrusted to my care in ways that I couldn't have even begun to imagine possible.

How to Brainstorm with an Idea Map
How to Brainstorm with an Idea Map
Most projects and plans start with some form of brainstorming, a powerful way to quickly clarify thinking on a topic. Brainstorming individually or as a group can help you move away from your normal patterns of thinking, resulting in more creative thinking and the generation of ideas that may not be obvious at first,
Idea maps are an ideal way to visually capture and represent ideas during a brainstorming session, then organize and demonstrate relationships between the ideas using links. The visual representation will help you make associations, organize your thought processes, and easily identify key ideas or solutions.
To create an idea map:
- Start by clearly stating and then defining the topic being considered. This is your main idea.
- Brainstorm by adding ideas freely, recording all ideas as they come to mind. Keep the ideas flowing. Don't edit, evaluate, or think about where the ideas fit. Leave the analysis, organizing and editing to after the brainstorming phase.
- If you get stuck:
- Stimulate your thinking by using different symbol shapes, images and colors.
- Stop and stretch for a minute or do some deep breathing. Moving will help get your brain going again.
- If you are brainstorming in a group, make sure everyone has an opportunity to give input.
- When you think you have all of your ideas recorded, you can start to analyze and organize them as a starting point for your project or plan:
- Evaluate each idea and how it fits in with your overall topic.
- Group and link similar ideas together.
- Combine ideas where appropriate.
- Does anything new surface? You can add new ideas at any time.
- Add more details about ideas using subtopics or notes.
- Keep these tips for brainstorming in mind:
- Start with a question
- Record all ideas
- Don't evaluate
- Ignore spelling
- Build on others' ideas
- Organize later
How to Create an idea map in WebspirationPRO
1. Launch the WebspirationPRO application and open a new WebspirationPRO diagram, or click the Templates/Examples button on the Starter Screen to open the ready-made Idea Map template.
2. In the Main Idea symbol, type the main topic you will be brainstorming about. The Main Idea is the center of your map.
3. Using RapidFire® or the Create tool, begin typing ideas.
4. Use symbols, graphics and other images from WebspirationPRO's symbol library to stimulate your thinking.
5. Differentiate among ideas and groups with colors, shapes and fonts.
6. To add detail, use the Note tool.
7. Once your idea map is organized and you feel comfortable with the results of your brainstorm, you may want to switch to WebspirationPRO's Outline View to expand on ideas and start a written document.

Indaba Merlot 2018
Winemaker Notes
Critical AcclaimAll Vintages
The Indaba brand was first launched in the US in 1996, shortly after South Africa transitioned to a democratic republic. "Indaba" is the Zulu word for "a meeting of the minds," or a traditional gathering of tribal leaders for sharing ideas. The brand was created as a celebration of the democratization process in South Africa, and from its inception the wines have conveyed the spirit of South Africa to American consumers.
The Indaba range is carefully selected from emerging regions of the Cape winelands such as Robertson, Wellington, and the Breede River Valley. Production is overseen by Bruwer Raats, celebrated winemaker of Raats Family Wines and long-term consultant for Indaba. All are bottled under user-friendly screwcap closures with environmentally friendly packaging. In addition to garnering regular "Best Buy" nods from Wine Enthusiast, Indaba has earned extensive praise in Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, which described the wines as "truly mind-boggling values" for the past two consecutive vintages.
A commitment to social responsibility has always been a key part of the Indaba philosophy. A portion of the proceeds from the brand's global sales funds a scholarship program that supports wine-related studies for students from formerly disenfranchised communities in South Africa. Through growth of the brand and via the affiliated scholarship, Indaba is proud to be a part of the positive changes that are altering the face of South Africa's wine industry.
With an important wine renaissance in full swing, impressive red and white bargains abound in South Africa. The country has a particularly long and rich history with winemaking, especially considering its status as part of the "New World." In the mid-17th century, the lusciously sweet dessert wines of Constantia were highly prized by the European aristocracy. Since then, the South African wine industry has experienced some setbacks due to the phylloxera infestation of the late 1800s and political difficulties throughout the following century.
Today, however, South Africa is increasingly responsible for high-demand, high-quality wines—a blessing to put the country back on the international wine map. Wine production is mainly situated around Cape Town, where the climate is generally warm to hot. But the Benguela Current from Antarctica provides brisk ocean breezes necessary for steady ripening of grapes. Similarly, cooler, high-elevation vineyard sites throughout South Africa offer similar, favorable growing conditions.
South Africa's wine zones are divided into region, then smaller districts and finally wards, but the country's wine styles are differentiated more by grape variety than by region. Pinotage, a cross between Pinot Noir and Cinsault, is the country's "signature" grape, responsible for red-fruit-driven, spicy, earthy reds. When Pinotage is blended with other red varieties, like Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Syrah or Pinot Noir (all commonly vinified alone as well), it is often labeled as a "Cape Blend." Chenin Blanc (locally known as "Steen") dominates white wine production, with Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc following close behind.

Propeller Pondery / Brand Comparison
Ever lie awake at night wondering what is the best propeller brand for a given setup? Is a $14 prop better than a $7? Is there really a performance difference between a wood or composite prop? Can you really tell a difference between a dedicated electric prop vs. a glow prop? Which prop is better for 3D or IMAC? Which prop fly�s better not just tests better? Inquiring minds want to know!
In the coming weeks I will be testing multiple propeller brands both measurably (bench test) and subjectively (flight test). I have also solicited a couple of creditable RC groups contributors to give their insight as well. I wanted to find out just what is the best prop brand for the (60" EXP plane / motor 4016T/500 / esc 80A / batt 6S 3300mah ) combination. Note, I am not getting paid to do this propeller comparison nor was I provided any propellers for free, this will be a straight up test.
Here are the brands I will be testing:
Xoar PJN
Vess Sport
EMP Neodym Scimitar
Oh yes there will be armchair critics because like anything else part of it comes down to personal preference. However after my testing, if you can prove that you are a legitimate RC contributor, have the skills, background and attention to detail, I will send you the entire prop array for a second test run. A second posted independent test using the same props with the same or different equivalent power set up.
Beware if you derogatorily speak up then get ready to man up (3D/IMAC posers) and do the whole prop test your self. The first potential criticism... how am I qualified to do the test? I am Project Manager for a Seattle based Airplane Mfg...
Sit back and prepare your self for some fun, lively debate and cool results in the coming weeks. So just who is the best prop mfg? We are going to find out.
Propeller Pondery / Brand Comparison / Physical Data & Dimensions
Attached is a pic of the propellers tested and spreadsheet with the physical data & dimenisions.
APC Thin-E
EMP Scimitar
Falcon Beechwood
Vess Sport
Vox Electric
Xoar PJN
-All Propellers were calibrated to a 8mm prop shaft, checked for balance and corrected if needed.
-15x8 Propeller was used for comparison based on best theoretical pitch value (15/2=7.5) and availability from all brands.
- The EMP required the most work to achieve neutral balance.
- The Vox Prop was the lightest of the props weighing in at 31grams.
System Constants
Motor Torque 4016T-500 (Turns 16/ KV 500)
Battery Turnigy nano-tech 3300mah 6S 45~90C Lipo
ESC Airboss 80 Elite (80A)
Attached is a pic of the static test bed and equipment that will be used for testing.
-Test was static with motor system installed on test stand.
-Eflite Wattmeter
-O'Donnell infrared thermometer
-Hanger 9 RPM Meter
-Berkley Digital 50lb capacity Fish Scale
-Thunder Power 610C Lipo Charger
I should have the static bench test results posted in the next couple of weeks. I will be working with Aeroplayin to review and validate the measurable results. In the future Northwest weather permitting I will try to work with Flopgun to perform subjective flight tests for each prop because how a propeller performs in the air is just as important as bench data.
Stay tuned this should get interesting. So just who is the best prop mfg? We are going to find out.
Propeller Pondery / Brand Comparison / The Bench Test Results Ta Da!
Just what is the best prop brand for the (60" EXP plane / motor 4016T/500 / esc 80A / batt 6S 3300mah ) combination? You had best be sitting down for the two part collaborative measurable results thread!
I have bench tested the props and generated the initial data. Attached are two results graphs and the full up raw prop data captured. Aeroplayin (Jim) has reviewed the results and will provide some stellar detailed analysis and wisdom which he will release in a forth coming EXP thread.
Limited Conclusions
I took exhaustive efforts to remove as many variables out of the test equation. Talk is cheap results are what really counts. While my test methodology was not perfect it was validated by Aeroplayin as a decent effort with linear results. However I think there is always room for improvement.
What does it all mean? I will save the in depth analysis for Aeroplayin who will blow your socks off. However here are my limited observations and conclusions.
1-Stating just Watts produced is not the end all determinative performance measurement. True Watts will give you a good gauge on a props performance in the power system but you need more info Volts, AMPs, Thrust, RPM, Mah Returned to Batt and Heat Build up to clearly conclude a propellers overall performance and efficiency. For example, you could take a really inefficient prop and it could produce wild WATT numbers but low thrust in a given power system.
2-Who is the best prop mfg? It depends upon what you're looking for. In this power system experiment, if pitch choice remains a constant, then there's three options. Clearly if you want raw thrust it's the wood Vess glow prop. It's apparent that Vess has really done their aero engineering homework and you can see it in the numbers. If you want longer flight times go with the composite APC prop. If your airplanes on a diet and you want a light weight prop that provides decent flight times and excellent thrust Xoar is your prop.
3-Myth busted! VOX and Xoar are the same just rebranded. If there was one test that rattled me it was the Vox vs Xoar bench test. Xoar was more efficient, period (less Amp draw, similar thrust, higher RPM and lower system temps). It rattled me so much I fully retested the Vox and Xoar to validate the results. While I won't rule out that VOX may be produced in the same factory as Xoar because the props at first glace are so similar looking. Xoar is definitely shrewdly holding back on some key competitive and proprietary data. Without leveraging mult-million dollar test and measurement equipment at midnight, by eye and my crude measurements it appears that Xoar's little better airfoil profiling and premium beechwood selection are the separating performance factors.
Now What?
Whoa wait a minute! Bench testing is not enough! How do the flippin props perform in the air? Great question. Leaving no stone unturned, I am going to work with Flopgun to see if he is available, Northwest weather permitting, to do subjective flight testing. If Flopgun is unable to perform flight tests due to weather, then I will be sending the prop array to Tom K and Aeroplayin for further testing including subjective flight testing. Once it is determined which props have most flight potential then we can start tweaking with the pitch.
Stay tuned as this is gonna get crazy interesting. Six props tested one prop wins.
The brands and models measurably tested
-APC Thin-E
-EMP Neodym Scimitar
-Falcon Beechwood
-Vess Sport
-Vox Electric
-Xoar PJN
System Constants
-Motor Torque 4016T-500 (Turns 16/ KV 500)
-Battery Turnigy nano-tech 3300mah 6S 45~90C Lipo
-ESC Airboss 80 Elite (80A)
-Metric values where used due to more precise measurement.
-All test equipment was calibrated prior to the test and all propellers were tested on the same day.
-All Propellers were calibrated to a 8mm prop shaft, checked for balance and corrected if needed.
-Data was based on the average of three 20sec WOT bursts with alternating 20sec 50% Throttle recovery cycles. 2min total run time.
-15x8 Propeller was used for comparison based on best theoretical pitch value (15/2=7.5) and availability from all brands.
-The same battery was used which was fully charged and starting battery voltage was (25.0 volts) for each prop eval
-Results Data was compared against ecalc web tool (http://www.ecalc.ch/) / Aeroplayin reviewed the data, preformed additional calculations and analysis forth coming.
-Test results will greatly vary based upon motor / esc / batt / test equipment used. Example (Lower Batt Mah / C values will yield lower Amps / Watts / Thrust)
-I didn't get paid to do this propeller comparison nor was I provided any propellers for free, this was straight up no hidden agenda test.
I wish to again thank Aeroplayin for all his efforts and thank EXP contributors for sharing their knowledge. My hope is that this prop test thread has cultivated interest, that our joint RC Group efforts can help set a new propeller testing bench mark and we can continue to contribute to the EXP thread collaborative knowledge base. Thus making the EXP's the absolute pinnacle of flight performers. I certainly have learned a lot from this experiment and I have had a lot of fun playing the mad scientist.
Kindest Regards,
"If you're not dragging your rudder on the ground your not flying low enough."
Propeller Pondery / Lipo Parameter Effects / One Change...Changes Everthing
I was curious what the effects would be if I only changed Lipo's in the power system. This test run keeps the prop constant (Brand, Dia and Pitch), the Lipo constant at 6s and changes with the C value (30/60C & 45/90C) and Mah (3300 & 4000).
The data/results are attached below. What becomes obvious is the fact that if you change the lipo parameters or pretty much any component in the power system for that matter it changes everything regarding the measurable results.
To the 3D sinsei's this is no news. To the rest of us it means we should carry a wattmeter in our flight box at all times. Change props remeasure the amps prior to flight, Change Lipo C or Mah remeasure the amps prior to flight, Changed your underwear, well then try flyin a little further off the deck bozo.
Next in the Lab: Pitch and Diameter experiments showing the effects on the system. Caution, Ahh Houston we have a problem... 20X12 prop!!!
Then the much anticipated finally! Subjective Flight Testing of the prop array.
I have made an executive call. Northwest weather is too unpredictable to assure near future subjective flight tests of the prop array. I personally would like to see the results sooner than later. I am passing the testing torch and prop array to Aeroplayin and Tom K. for more testing and the ever important, much anticipated flight testing in better weather Florida. The test props and the final results will be in great hands as they have demonstrated they have the skills to pay the bills.
Six props tested one prop wins!
Who's it gonna be APC, VESS, XOAR
This is the Analysis to go along with Leespaddock's testing...
Whoo Hoo! Hoo Rah!
Love this new thread. It's like a brand new playground dibs on the monkey bars
The propeller forecast. Showers of falling ego's with cloud breaks of paradigm shifting in-lighten-ment. lol

Queen Anne's is a boarding and day school where our community is defined by very strong pastoral care. There are three Day Houses: Ffyler, Webbe, and Wisdome, for girls aged 11-16, each with its own characteristics and quirks. The happiness of the girls is at the top of our priority list and it is primarily through the House system that we strive to ensure this.
The Day Houses provide a base for the girls during the school day. The girls register with their Housemistress every morning before heading to Chapel/Assembly or tutor time. A morning in one of the day houses can be busy and yet each Housemistress exudes a calming presence as the girls prepare for their day ahead. The Housemistress is always there to welcome the girls to another school day and to help them prepare for the academic challenges the school day will bring.
The Day Housemistress leads and manages the House and she is the first point of contact for parents for any advice or guidance. The involvement of all the Housemistresses in teaching ensures they are fully aware of the girls' academic as well as pastoral development. The Housemistress is ably supported by two deputies and a team of tutors who are allocated to a year group and provide individual support.
Tutors see their tutees regularly to discuss their academic progress and pastoral development. Sixth Form students are given the opportunity to help and support the younger girls through the House officer system. They play a vital role in running the teams for inter-house competitions including House Music, Drama and Sport. Competition thrives between the Houses and the colours of the houses are a visible sign of the pride each House has in its achievements.
The strength of the House system lies in establishing a very clear identity and a physical place where the girls feel a sense of belonging and are valued. Throughout their time at Queen Anne's they are supported and encouraged within this environment without condition. The House is a place in which the values of Queen Anne's are communicated and reinforced. The House is the place in which the nurture they receive is an extension of that they might experience at home.
Girls at Queen Anne's say they feel well supported throughout the school, and clearly understand who they can turn to if they have a problem. All pastoral staff ensure that each girl's individual needs are met. The Day Houses are a warm, welcoming, happy and fun place to be and the girls in Ffyler, Webbe and Wisdome look forward to showing you around their House.
"You're given so much support here. Even if your friends aren't that sporty, they'll come and watch you in matches to encourage you. "
Elly S
One of the strengths of Queen Anne's School is the important role that day girls play in our community. Ffyler is one of the junior day houses with girls from L4-U5 who are proud to be members of this House.
Our House is full of energy and excitement. Webbe girls have a very positive outlook on life and are an absolute pleasure to work with! We think of ourselves as the Webbe family where the older girls look out for their younger 'sisters'.
In Wisdome House we have a great variety of talents and interests amongst our girls. These include musicians, actresses and dedicated sports women to name a few. We always enjoy sharing details of our interests and achievements in house and often display these on our achievements notice board.

You've probably seen field sobriety tests on television, especially if you like to watch crime shows. They are the sobriety tests conducted roadside and they consist of the following three tests: 1) horizontal gaze nystagmus (HGN) test, 2) walk-and-turn test, and 3) one-leg stand test. These tests were originally developed in the 1970s and they are admissible as evidence in a DUI case in many states.
To be more accurate, the Standardized Field Sobriety Test (SFST) is a battery of the three tests mentioned above, although people often refer to the SFST as field sobriety tests. "Beginning in 1975, the National Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) sponsored research that led to the development of standardized methods for police officers to use when evaluating motorists who are suspected of Driving While Impaired," according to the NHTSA.
Are Field Sobriety Tests Questionable?
Although these tests are scientifically validated, many people in the legal field believe these tests to be highly subjective. They can be difficult to complete and even a sober person can fail these tests. When the field sobriety tests are conducted in the dark, in windy conditions or on any type of a hill, they can be even more difficult to "pass."
The following factors are known to make it difficult for a person to complete one or more the field sobriety tests:
- Age
- Poor vision
- Eye disease
- Injuries
- Illness
- Certain diseases
- Certain medical conditions
"Do I have to perform the field sobriety tests during a DUI stop?" Guess what? You are under no legal obligation to take these tests, and there is no penalty for refusing. Our advice is to politely say "no thank you" to the field sobriety tests. If you take these tests, any evidence collected can be used against you in court. In other words, these tests only help the police secure a conviction, they do not help you in any way.
Note: While there is no penalty for declining the field sobriety tests, there is a penalty for refusing to submit to a chemical test in the form of a breath, blood or urine test. If you refuse a chemical test, you will automatically lose your driver's license for one year, even if you had nothing to drink!
If you're facing DUI charges in Orange County, contact our office to meet with Attorney Landry, who is trained in field sobriety testing.

To request a copy of all citizen complaints against a police officer, simply email the Albuquerque city clerk at email@example.com. You might want to write something like the following:
Dear Ms Bailey,
I write to request copies of all citizen complaints against Albuquerque Police Department officer (OFFICER NAME) filed with the Police Oversight Commission and/or Internal Affairs Department of the Albuquerque Police Department, along with all documents created during the course of investigating said complaints, including documentation of the findings of the investigations. The documents can be emailed to me at this address, along with an invoice, or I can pick up the documents at the APD records desk when they are ready.
Thank you for routing this to the appropriate records custodian.
If you're concerned about having your name on the request (and we're not saying you should or shouldn't be) you might want to send the request anonymously.
Within just a day or two of sending your request, you should get an email from the records custodian at the police department confirming your request. A few days later, you should get another email telling you that you can pick up the requested information downtown. They are required by law to fulfill your request within 15 days.If there are just a few pages, they might possibly scan them and email them to you, but usually they'll ask you to pick them up downtown. The records will be available for pickup at the police records department downtown at 400 Roma Ave NW
There is a charge of 10¢ per page. Bring cash.
Once you have the records, be sure to send us a copy so we can publish it. If you have the technical know-how, it's extremely helpful to us if you can process the file according to our specifications before sending it to us.
Citizens have the right to request these records for any reason. You do not have to explain why you are requesting the records. The law establishing your right to request records is called IPRA, the Inspection of Public Records Act. The Attorney General's office offers a Guide to IPRA that explains how it all works.

Check out the coupon at the bottom of the page to add other items to your spur or rope climbing kit and get a great discount.
This upgrade for your spur climbing kit gives you premium rope and hardware to setup Moving Rope System. With this add-on, you can maintain the two points of connection required to work safely in the tree. The Moving Rope System can be used to enter a tree you are not spur climbing, as a second point of connection when climbing, and to exit the tree quickly and smoothly.
This kit provides a climbing line upgrade that can be used as described above, and also includes essential safety gear for working in trees.
Contains: 150' ArborMaster® Bigfoot climbing line, friction hitch, hitch-tending pulley, figure 8, rope bag, Vertex Vent Helmet, Boas Safety Glasses, Atlas Gloves, and helmet-attachment ear muffs.

With the gear in this kit, the user can set up a system where the climber alternates between standing on the foot ascender and the foot strap. Alternating in this method makes climbing the rope a lot like climbing a ladder.
Kit Contains: CMI hand ascender and foot ascender (choice of right or left), ascender foot strap, delta link, standard figure 8, and 7 feet of Sterling 8mm cord that can be used to tie a prusik.

Oval Petzl OK Triact carabiners are ideal for moving-rope systems, and Drenaline is one of the most popular climbing lines, lightweight with great handling and durability. This kit comes with a medium rope bag - keep it ready for instant deployment.
The Rope Wrench grants smooth, precise control to the climber, and is an excellent tool for working the tree in SRS, saving time switching between SRS & MRS systems. All the hardware you need to experience the Rope Wrench is in this kit. You'll want to have a way to tend the Rope Wrench. A trick using gear you already have is to run a lanyard over your shoulder and clip it into the Hitch Climber.
Kit contains: Rope Wrench ZK-2 (ASC179), Stiff Tether (ASC196-O), Phlotich Pulley (PUL160), Camp Turbo Right Foot Ascender (ASC190-R), Sterling RIT 9mm Eye-to-Eye Prusik (CLI339), DMM XSRE carabiner (CAR318 - colors may vary), Petzl Torse strap (SAD405), Delta Link (HAR117).
The RADS (Rapid Ascent/Descent System) kit is a simple single rope system which allows the user to easily ascend a single rope with mechanical advantage. With the Petzl Rig installed, the climber is always ready to descend simply by removing the handled ascender, switching from ascent to descent quickly and with minimal fuss.
Kit contains: Petzl Basic Ascender, 1/4" Delta Link, Revolver Carabiner, Foot Strap, RockO Carabiner, Petzl Rig.
The simplest canopy-entry method lets the climber ascender with a simple sit-stand motion. The daisy chains is used as an adjustable tethers the pair of hand ascenders, and one for the pair of foot straps.

The Kenner Italian Heritage Festival now in its 16th year in Rivertown and scheduled for April 1, 2 & 3 of 2016, will feature a display of historical memorabilia and photographs from Kenner's Italian families, Italian and local music, children's activities, genealogical research tutoring, crafts and delicious Italian food from local vendors.
CLICK HERE for the festival's entertainment schedule.
The day was inspired by the rich Italian heritage and customs many Kenner residents share, such as the St. Rosalie Procession in Rivertown in September and the many St. Joseph altars in March of each year.
"The city of Kenner at one time was the center of the community for many Italian families," said Nick Congemi, retired Kenner Police Chief and Chairman/Founder of the event. "Since that time, those families have grown; some have moved away and not returned to the culture and city they were raised in. We want to create a positive, community festival similar to a family reunion where people come to meet and enjoy each other's company at least once a year."
The area has historically been associated with Italians who were successful farmers and hard workers in many professions. Congemi's uncle, Angelo Arnone, settled in Independence, Louisiana as did many other Italians, and recalled rail cars full of produce being shipped from Independence and Kenner to stores throughout the country.
"They brought a rich culture and served in every capacity within the community, from repairing shoes to producing the foods that we ate, which really distinguished this area," Congemi said. "This area fed the nation when there was not irrigation in places like Florida and California."
Because times have changed and families don't stay as close as they once were, Congemi said people tend to forget their ancestors' sacrifices, such as leaving their homeland to work at sugar plantations in Louisiana for fifty cents a day. The Kenner Italian Heritage Festival will pay tribute to their accomplishments by celebrating their culture and the specific contributions they brought to the community as a whole.

Centennial Beach in Hudson�and Marlborough's Memorial Beach are temporarily closed to swimmers due to high levels of cyanobacteria algae�in the waters of the Fort Meadow Reservoir.
Health officials in Hudson and Marlborough have been monitoring the� algae activity in the�reservoir, which straddles the Hudson-Marlborough border, for the past few weeks. Earlier this week, staff at the two beaches noticed a heavier bloom of algae�near the beaches, said Sam Wong, Hudson director of public and community health services.
"It�s natural in the water," he said. "You almost always have them."
State officials tested water samples from each beach this week and found cyanobacteria levels of 130,000 and 140,000 cells per milliliter, which are significantly higher than the state Department of Public Health�s guideline level of 70,000 cells per milliliter.
"It seems like it�s pretty high," Wong said of the levels.
The microcystin toxin level in both samples was only�one part per billion, less than the state�s guideline level of 14 parts per billion, said Wong.
The state will continue testing water samples in the coming weeks and Wong is unsure when the beaches will reopen to swimmers.
While the algae is not toxic, Wong said it can cause skin irritation.�He�warned residents to stay out of�the water.
Wong also advised the public�to keep dogs out of the water�ad immediately rinse them off if they do go in.
Residents� drinking water is not affected by cyanobacteria, as Marlborough gets its water from the Massachusetts Water Resources Authority and Hudson�s drinking water comes from ground wells, said Wong.
Signs are posted at both beaches. Wong said Hudson residents�were�also notified of the advisory through the town�s reverse 911 system.
Jeff Malachowski can be reached at 508-490-7466 or firstname.lastname@example.com. Follow him on Twitter @JmalachowskiMW.

History of the Wellfleet Public Library
The history of the Wellfleet Public Library is a long story of generous and continuous public support. It is told that during the Reconstruction Period following the Civil War, a few men met and each laid a dollar on the table to provide for free reading material for the Town of Wellfleet.
1873 The parish and members of the First Congregational Church by means of entertainments and other fund raising, gathered and circulated books from a little "cubby-hole" in the corner of the vestry. this "first library" is still in the church.
1893 In response to the Massachusetts Library Act of 1890, the town accepted $100 worth of books and temporarily established the "Workers Circulating Library" with 1,827 volumes on the second floor of the old Wellfleet Savings Bank. This elegant building with its distinctive mansard roof still stands at the corner of Bank and Commercial Streets. Later that year, the library was moved to a building on Main Street ownded by Capt. John Swett. In 1909 this building, with its entire collection of 2,500 books, was destroyed by fire.
1910 New quarters were rented on the second floor of the dry-goods store on Main Street owned by Mrs. Payne W. Higgins. Friends of the library who were raising funds for a new library rallied public support and soon replaced the books and persuaded the town to acquire the building, now the Wellfleet Historical Society.
1919-1950 The Second Congregational Church in South Wellfleet, known as "Colonial Hall," was moved in 1919 to the center of Wellfleet to be used as Memorial Hall. In 1940, this now derelict building was rescued from condemnation and demolition by the summer colony and the year-round residents of Wellfleet and restored to serve as town offices. In 1950, the upper floor of Town Hall was made available for the Library according to a long anticipated plan.
1960 During a severe blizzard, the Hall with the Library burned to the ground. The building was reconstructed by 1961 and the lost library restored once again with appeals for the contributions of books. Patrons of the library fondly remember those pleasant, cramped quarters where books overflowed to piles on the floor and in the corners. Volunteer committees worked for twelve years to find a larger central location. They finally settled on a former curtain factory built in 1931 on West Main Street which had been converted into a candle factory.
1989 On one fall day more than 100 volunteers moved 25,000 books from the cramped 2000 square feet of Town Hall to the beautifully renovated 10,000 square feet of the new building. The new public space permitted a dramatic expansion and focus of the Town's cultural and civic life.
1996 In step with the burst in information technology, the library went on line with CLAMS, an electronic catalogue of Wellfleet's holdings as well as those of the other public libraries on the Cape and Islands. The staff, with the help of dozens of volunteers, brought the library's capabilities into the 21st century.
With its hospitable atmosphere and wide range of services and activities, the libary is the acknowledged treasure of Wellfleet.

After the 18-year Puritan stage ban was lifted at the Restoration of the monarchy in 1660, the theatrical life of London recreated itself quickly and abundantly. During the reign of Charles II (1660–1685), playwrights such as John Dryden, George Etherege, Aphra Behn, and William Wycherley wrote comedies that triumphantly reassert aristocratic dominance and prestige after the years of middle class power during Oliver Cromwell's Commonwealth. Reflecting the atmosphere of the Court, these plays celebrate a lifestyle of sensual intrigue and conquest, especially conquest that served to humiliate the husbands of the London middle classes and to avenge, in the sensual arena, the marginalisation and exile suffered by royalists under Cromwell. Charles' personal interest in the stage nourished Restoration drama, and his most favoured courtiers were poets, playwrights, and men of wit, such as John Wilmot, Earl of Rochester, Charles Sackville, Earl of Dorset, and William Wycherley. Wycherley had no title or wealth, but had by 1675 already recommended himself by two well-received comedies and had been admitted to the inner circle, sharing the conversation and sometimes the mistresses of Charles, who "was extremely fond of him upon account of his wit".[2] In 1675, at age 35, he created a sensation with The Country Wife, greeted as the bawdiest and wittiest play yet seen on the English stage.
Like Charles II, Wycherley had spent some Commonwealth years in France and become interested in French drama, and throughout his short playwriting career (1671–1676) he would borrow plotlines and techniques from French plays, particularly Molière. However, in contrast to the French, English audiences of the 1670s had no enthusiasm for structurally simple comedies or for the neoclassical unities of time, place, and action, but demanded fast pace, many complications, and above all "variety". To achieve the much denser texture and more complex plotting that pleased in London, Wycherley would combine several source plays to produce bustling action and clashing moods, ranging from farce through paradox to satire.
A Restoration novelty of which Wycherley took advantage was the readiness of public opinion to accept women on stage, for the first time in British history. Audiences were fascinated to see real women reverse the cross-dressing of the Elizabethan boy actors and appear in tight-fitting male outfits in the popular breeches roles, and to hear them match or even outdo the rake heroes in repartee and double entendre. Charles' choice of actresses as mistresses, notably Nell Gwyn, helped keep the interest fresh, and Wycherley plays on this interest in The Country Wife by having Mr. Pinchwife disguise his wife (the eponymous 'country wife') in a boy's outfit. It has also been suggested that he uses the allure of women on display to emphasise in an almost voyeuristic way Margery's provocative innocence, as well as the immodest knowingness of "town" wives like Lady Fidget.[3]

Introduction: Pear Upside Down Cake | Simplified
This is a great dessert when you want to rustle up something quick, this pear upside down cake is a take on that classic pineapple upside down cake we all love. There are so many ways to do this dessert, some involving caramels but this no frills version is great served with ice cream or custard. So give it a try. To make this dessert you will need the following:
- 3 conference pears depending on the size, you could use almost any pear though so pick your favourite if you prefer, peels and de-core.
- 190g plain flour
- 2 tsp of baking powder
- 1 tsp of ground cinnamon powder, don't be tempted to add too much
- 1/4 tsp or a good pinch of salt
- 125 ml of whole milk, got to be whole, unless you want to be healthy
- 1 1/2 tsp of vanilla extract, really no point in using pods here, you could even leave this out if you don't have any at home but it does make a difference
- 110g of unsalted butter
- 200g light brown sugar
- 2 large eggs
Teacher Notes
Teachers! Did you use this instructable in your classroom?
Add a Teacher Note to share how you incorporated it into your lesson.
Step 1: Method
There is a lot of whisking, you could use a mixer but I prefer to use muscle power.
- Start by putting your brown sugar in a large bowl
- Melt your butter and add to the sugar, this is much easier than trying to cream soft butter with the brown sugar and should help to prevent lumps in your batter
- Whisk together and then add the eggs, you can add them one at a time but it really doesn't matter, just bung them in, whisk the eggs to incorporate
- Add the vanilla extract, baking powder, cinnamon and salt and mix
- To this add your milk, I always use whole milk, when you whisking in the milk you will see your mixture smooth out a lot. if you still have a few lumps of sugar, don't worry, no one will notice and I wont tel :)
- With a sieve, add about half the flour and whisk before adding the rest and whisking again
- Peel and quarter your pears before de-coring (or cut any way you prefer)
- In a greased and lined cake tin (approx 20cm) lay the pears in the bottom
- Pour over the cake batter, smooth over and tap on the counter to release any air bubbles
- Bake in the oven at about 180 degrees celsius for 25 - 30 minutes until a knife inserted into the centre of the cake comes out clean
- leave to cool in the tin for about 10 - 15 minutes at least before turning out onto your serving plate
And enjoy :)

The Bestologist's BFFs (Black Friday Favorites)
After looking through many Black Friday ads, here's a brief list of some of the more compelling values that I've found.
I-Inc 28" LCD Monitor. $249 at TigerDirect shipped. This I-Inc is a 28" 1920x1200 LCD monitor with HDMI (and VGA) connections. Most 1920x1200 monitors are 24", so relatively speaking, everything on this 28" monitor will appear a bit bigger. The larger size is great if you want to use the monitor occasionally to watch movies, or if you're finding your eyes are helped by slightly larger text. It may be an "off brand", but the I-Inc monitor has been consistently well-reviewed by end users -- there are many hundreds of positive reviews on TigerDirect's website. The I-Inc is nearly identical to the similarly well-regarded Hanns-G 28" monitor, which gets the same good reviews. One of the few obvious differences is that I-Inc monitor has a matte black finish, whereas the Hanns-G has a glossy black finish (NewEgg had a Black Friday special on the Hanns-G for $259, but it's now sold out). It's worth noting that most "HD" monitors these days use a cheaper 16:9 1920x1080 aspect ratio LCD panel. Personally, I appreciate the extra bit of vertical resolution that this 16:10 1920x1200 I-Inc monitor affords you, particularly when working in a word processor. www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp
iHome Clock Radio & Audio System for iPod -- Model IH9B6R. The list price is $99.99, but it's on sale at MacMall for $69.99. Though the iHome brand isn't household name, the IHRB6R is a surprisingly good sounding clock radio with iPod/iPhone docking. It has a very balanced (i.e., neutral) frequency response, which is pretty unusual at this price point. Vocals come through with good clarity and naturalness. High frequency extension is quite good as well. Given the size of the unit, you shouldn't expect deep bass, nor should you expect the unit to play very loudly, but it sounds great for the price. In fact, I think it's probably the best iPod-docking clock radio anywhere near it's discounted price. (http://www.macmall.com/p/iHome-MP3-Players-&-Accessories/product~dpn...)
Altec-Lansing Orbit Ultra-Portable Speaker System. The list price on the Orbit is a way-too-high $39.99, but at $9.99, it's a great deal. The Orbit is a small round mono speaker designed to be plugged into an MP3 player via a 3.5mm mini-phone stereo jack (make sure you check your MP3 player's headphone jack to make sure it's the right size). The Orbit runs on AAA batteries. As is the case for the iHome unit above, it has an unusually balanced frequency response (I find most speaker systems at this price point completely unlistenable). You'll be pleased with the clarity of it's sound. The Orbit is small, so don't expect much bass or volume, but it's still great for providing pleasing background music. Think of it as the sort of speaker you might pull out of your desk drawer for late night listening, or the sort of speaker you might keep in your travel bag for use in a hotel room. I do have one peeve about the unit -- to operate the on/off switch, you have to twist the speaker in an opposite direction from the base, and on my unit, I found this requires an unnatural amount of force. (http://www.macmall.com/p/Altec-Lansing-MP3-Players/product~dpno~7364300~...)
Samsung SL30 Digital Camera. $49 at Fry's Electronics. Ok, I don't have firsthand experience with this digital camera, but I will say that I haven't seen another mainstream-brand digital camera near this price (unless you consider Vivitar mainstream). The camera gets better-than-decent reviews around the web. This could be a good camera for the kids -- it's very cheap, and yet, it's a "real" camera that's several steps in quality above what dimples calls "Barbie" cameras. The SL30 appears only to be available in-store: http://www.frys.com/product/5887363?site=sr:SEARCH:MAIN_RSLT_PG
Canon Rebel XS with 18-55is lens. $399 at Fry's Electronics. This is a great little DSLR. Its 10.1 megapixels is plenty for most people. It has very good low-light performance, as is typical these days for DSLRs. The included 18-55is lens is really quite good for a consumer-grade (i.e., non-pro) kit lens, and it's image-stabilized to boot. At $399, you're getting a DSLR quality of photos for not a whole lot more than the cost of an upper end compact digital camera. http://www.frys.com/product/5697011?site=sr:SEARCH:MAIN_RSLT_PG
Canon PowerShot S90. $379.95 (and no tax!) at Samy's Camera. If you've read our review of the Canon S90, you know how much we like this little camera. It's an incredible price, but here's the bad news -- it appears to be available only in store, so only those in SoCal will likely partake. Samy's website shows a higher price. You might try their mail order number (888) 726-9722 though.
HP P1005 monochrome laser printer. $49 at Staples. This isn't an unprecedented price for this unit, but we've only seen it a couple times before (in fact, Amazon currently has it for a relatively close $59.94). It's a half-decent entry-level printer that's good enough for light-duty work. One thing I like about it is that it's very compact and doesn't take up a lot of desk space. For those of you with only an inkjet printer, getting a cheap monochrome laser printer like this one is a good way to save some money on those brutally expensive inkjet cartridges you're always having to purchase. http://www.staples.com/HP-LaserJet-P1005-Printer/product_715616_HC2?stor...
Brother MFC-7340 All-in-One Printer/Fax/Scanner/Copier. $99 after rebate at Staples. I really like this all-in-one. It works well -- it has good copy quality, a document feeder that doesn't jam too often (btw, all ADFs jam, so jamming not-too-often is a good thing), and adequate scan quality (though I wouldn't use it as your main photo scanner). It comes with a verison of PaperPort document management software, which I think is a quite useable software package -- it helps organize everything you scan into folders (you'll see that PaperPort reviews are quite mixed, or even bad, but that's not been my experience). Together with PaperPort, the MFC-7340 has been great for getting all me organized for tax time. I don't have to manually hunt for 1099s and W2s and so forth in my files -- I just scan the tax docs as they come in the mail; after that, they're only a click away. http://www.staples.com/Brother-MFC-7340-Laser-Multi-Function-Printer/pro...

Despite its Lil Wayne, Drake and Chris Brown features, "Only" was kind of a dud on Nicki Minaj's otherwise thrilling album The Pinkprint, but it seems to be a favorite for veteran NYC rappers to hop on. After Murda Mook spent his freestyle version (entitled "Only Nicki") lusting after Minaj, the self-proclaimed "King of Brooklyn," Maino, has given us his own take on the track.
In it, the "K.O.B." says he "never fucked Nicki," but he did try. Continuing on, we hear tales of him sexing a girl who's famous but still has problems with making herself smell good.
Dig it?
[via XclusivesZone]
Quotable Lyrics
I never fucked Nicki but I did try
Gave me one kiss, then said 'boy, bye'
She had the white beamer, I was in the magnum
Used to come see her on the South side

Isaiah 40:6 Parallel
CommentaryKeil and Delitzsch Biblical Commentary on the Old Testament
The consequences of this coqueting with the children of the stranger, and this vain display, are pointed out in Isaiah 39:3-8 : "Then came Isaiah the prophet to king Hizkiyahu, and said to him, What have these men said, and whence come they to thee? Hizkiyahu said, They came to me from a far country (K. omits to me), out of Babel. He said further, What have they seen in thy house? Hizkiyahu said, All that is in my house have they seen: there was nothing in my treasures that I had not shown them. Then Isaiah said to Hizkiyahu, Hear the word of Jehovah of hosts (K. omits tsebhâ'ōth); Behold, days come, that all that is in thy house, and all that thy fathers have laid up unto this day, will be carried away to Babel (בּבל, K. בּבלה): nothing will be left behind, saith Jehovah. And of thy children that proceed from thee, whom thou shalt beget, will they take (K. chethib, 'will he take'); and they will be courtiers in the palace of the king of Babel. Then said Hizkiyahu to Isaiah, Good is the word of Jehovah which thou hast spoken. And he said further, Yea (כּי, K. אם הלוא), there shall be peace and stedfastness in my days." Hezekiah's two candid answers in vv. 3 and 4 are an involuntary condemnation of his own conduct, which was sinful in two respects. This self-satisfied display of worthless earthly possessions would bring its own punishment in their loss; and this obsequious suing for admiration and favour on the part of strangers, would be followed by plundering and enslaving on the part of those very same strangers whose envy he had excited. The prophet here foretells the Babylonian captivity; but, in accordance with the occasion here given, not as the destiny of the whole nation, but as that of the house of David. Even political sharp-sightedness might have foreseen, that some such disastrous consequences would follow Hezekiah's imprudent course; but this absolute certainty, that Babylon, which was then struggling hard for independence, would really be the heiress to the Assyrian government of the world, and that it was not from Assyria, which was actually threatening Judah with destruction for its rebellion, but from Babylon, that this destruction would really come, was impossible without the spirit of prophecy. We may infer from Isaiah 39:7 (cf., Isaiah 38:19, and for the fulfilment, Daniel 1:3) that Hezekiah had no son as yet, at least none with a claim to the throne; and this is confirmed by 2 Kings 21:1. So far as the concluding words are concerned, we should quite misunderstand them, if we saw nothing in them but common egotism. כּי (for) is explanatory here, and therefore confirmatory. אם הלוא, however, does not mean "yea, if only," as Ewald supposes (324, b), but is also explanatory, though in an interrogative form, "Is it not good (i.e., still gracious and kind), if," etc.? He submits with humility to the word of Jehovah, in penitential acknowledgement of his vain, shortsighted, untheocratic conduct, and feels that he is mercifully spared by God, inasmuch as the divine blessings of peace and stability (אמת a self-attesting state of things, without any of those changes which disappoint our confident expectations) would continue. "Although he desired the prosperity of future ages, it would not have been right for him to think it nothing that God had given him a token of His clemency, by delaying His judgment" (Calvin).
Over the kingdom of Judah there was now hanging the very same fate of captivity and exile, which had put an end to the kingdom of Israel eight years before. When the author of the book of Kings prefaces the four accounts of Isaiah in 2 Kings 18:13-20, with the recapitulation in 2 Kings 18:9-12 (cf., Isaiah 17:5-6), his evident meaning is, that the end of the kingdom of Israel, and the beginning of the end of the kingdom of Judah, had their meeting-point in Hezekiah's time. As Israel fell under the power of the Assyrian empire, which foundered upon Judah, though only through a miraculous manifestation of the grace of God (see Hosea 1:7); so did Judah fall a victim to the Babylonian empire. The four accounts are so arranged, that the first two, together with the epilogue in Isaiah 37:36., which contains the account of the fulfilment, bring the Assyrian period of judgment to a close; and the last two, with the eventful sketch in Isaiah 39:6-7, open the way for the great bulk of the prophecies which now follow in chapters 40-66, relating to the Babylonian period of judgment. This Janus-headed arrangement of the contents of chapters 36-39 is a proof that this historical section formed an original part of the "vision of Isaiah." At any rate, it leads to the conclusion that, whoever arranged the four accounts in their present order, had chapters 40-66 before him at the time. We believe, however, that we may, or rather, considering the prophetico-historical style of chapters 36-39, that we must, draw the still further conclusion, that Isaiah himself, when he revised the collection of his prophecies at the end of Hezekiah's reign, or possibly not till the beginning of Manasseh's, bridged over the division between the two halves of the collection by the historical trilogy in the seventh book.

This beautiful medieval bishop's crook and silver-gilt case, or Coigreach, are associated with St Fillan of Perthshire, and are among our most important medieval church artefacts.
Date of Crozier
Crozier made from
Date of Coigreach
Coigreach made from
Silver, gold, rock crystal, AD1200–1500
Glendochart, Perthshire, Scotland
On display
The Crozier and Coigreach are on display in the Kingdom of the Scots gallery, Level 1, National Museum of Scotland.
Did you know?
The name 'Fillan' probably means 'little wolf' in Irish Gaelic.
The Fillan's Crozier and Coigreach are two separate yet connected objects. Both are associated with Fillan, who according to tradition was an early-medieval abbot who settled in Glendochart in Perthshire.
A crozier is a staff of office usually surmounted by a crook, which represents the pastoral authority of a bishop, symbolising their role as the shepherd of their 'flock'. The St Fillan's Crozier dates to the late 11th or early 12th century and is made in the characteristic West Highland style, decorated with niello, a black mixture of copper, silver and lead sulphides often as an inlay in Celtic jewellery.
The Coigreach, created at a much later date, is a silver-gilt reliquary, which was made as an elaborate shrine to encase the St Fillan's Crozier. Although the Coigreach originally dates from the 13th century, with additions from the 14th and 15th centuries, it incorporates panels of filigree removed from the Crozier.
The fact that such an elaborate reliquary was created for the Crozier indicates its significance, and the survival of both these objects is evidence for the place of Fillan as a national saint. Traditionally, this object-pair was imbued with the power to heal both humans and livestock, and was used for blessings.
The Dewar family of Glendochart, Perthshire, preserved the double shrine for many centuries. Over time this family became known by the Gaelic name for a keeper of symbolic relics – deòradh – and in turn this became more commonly anglicised as 'Dewar'. Thus by the 14th century this was the usual rendering of the surname of the keepers of the Coigreach.
The Coigreach and the Crozier were to travel far beyond Scotland. In 1819 they were taken by the then hereditary keeper, Archibald Dewar, when he emigrated to Ontario. Even in a new continent the traditions surrounding the objects continued. As had been the custom in Scotland, the Coigreach was used to bless the drinking water of cattle of Scottish emigrants in Ontario.
It was thanks to the diligence of the Scottish antiquarian and archaeologist Sir Daniel Wilson that these two important medieval objects were successfully returned to Scotland. It was at the time of its homecoming that the Crozier was removed and separated from the outer shrine of the Coigreach, which is how you'll see them on display today.
