The Auld Triangle
Mountjoy was designed by the British military engineering officer, Captain Joshua Jebb, Royal Engineers and opened in 1850, based on the design of London's Pentonville Prison also designed by Jebb. Originally intended as the first stop for men sentenced to transportation, they would spend a period in separate confinement before being transferred to Spike Island and transported from there to Van Diemen's Land.
A total of 46 prisoners (including one woman, Annie Walsh) were executed within the walls of the prison, prior to the abolition of capital punishment. Executions were done by hanging, after which the bodies of the dead were taken down from the gallows and buried within the prison grounds in unmarked graves
The song
The song is used to introduce the play, a story about the occurrences in a prison (in real life Mountjoy Prison where Behan had once been lodged) the day a convict is set to be executed. The triangle in the title refers to the large metal triangle which was beaten daily in Mountjoy Prison to waken the inmates ("The Auld Triangle goes Jingle Jangle"). The triangle still hangs in the prison at the centre where the wings meet on a metal gate. It is no longer used, though the hammer to beat it is mounted beside it. In the original play by Brendan Behan, the song is written as the "old triangle" not "auld triangle".
The triangle was rung regularly to signify points in the prisons routine.
A second level of meaning is hinted at in the final verse in which the singer imagines himself dwelling in the women's prison. Another mourns the separation from ''his girl Sal". These hint at the internal erotic fantasies that prisoners use to separate themselves from the harsh prison environment. In this meaning the old triangle becomes the female pudenda and the Royal Canal the vagina. [1]
As with many Irish ballads, the lyrics have been changed with each passing cover. For example, the Dropkick Murphys recording condenses the structure into a three-lyric section song with a chorus based on the last two lines of each stanza in the original.
Fiddler`s Green
Legend has it that there is a special paradise awaiting sailors. This place was called Fiddler's Green. Descriptions of it go back at least to 1685, when a description of it appears under the name of "Lubberland."
Fiddler's Green grew in the telling, but it was a place where there was always music, and where dancers never got tired. There was plenty to eat – pudding, meat, pie, candy. Tobacco and alcohol were plentiful and free. Often a sailor's soul in Fiddler's Green was tied to a ship, but on these magic ships there was no work. The wind always blew fair, and if one was fishing, the fish jumped into the net of their own accord.
Paddy lay back
This call-and-response chantey was usually sung at the capstan. A skilled chantey man could make up lyrics on the spot, altering the song to be about the crew and the adventures of their particular ship. The lyric "Take a turn around the capstan, heave a pawl refers to the "pawls' that were hinged metal pieces at the base of a capstan. They would prevent the capstan from spinning backwards by settling into a series of holes around the capstan's base.
Away to Rio
This song was used as a capstan or windlass chantey, usually for taking in the anchor. It was often the first song sung as the ship was getting underway, which is reflected in the lyrics. You can picture the sailors' lady friends standing on the pier listening as the sailors sing "Goodbye to all of you ladies of town..." The Rio Grande they are singing about was not the river in Mexico, but the "Rio Grande do Sul" in Brazil.
Strike the bell
The lyrics of this tune refer to the practice of keeping "Bell Time." The sailor's workday was divided into shifts of 4 hours on duty and 4 hours off. Every half-hour the mate would mark the time by ringing the ship's bell, adding one more strike with each half hour. This culmi-nated after four hours with eight bells being rung, signaling the shift change, a moment the sailors waited for enthusiastically. This was the sailor's version of a 19th century music hall song called "Ring the Bell Watchman," by Henry C. Work, a popular song writer of the time.
Leave her Johnny
The "her" being left is not a woman, but the ship. This shanty was
traditionally sung when the ship was at port after it had docked. The
shanty was also known as "Leave Her Bullies", "Time for Us
to Leave Her".
This song was used at the pumps,
but it also served
the purpose of the seamen airing their grievances (hence it being
done at the end of a voyage).
There were also several vulgar versions directed
at the food and the owners which cannot be printed here.

This seasonal gourd may be your best beauty buy of the season. From shiny hair to smooth skin, the pumpkin can provide benefits that prove it be a girl's best friend.
Packed with minerals and vitamins A, B-6, B-12, C and D, pumpkins are a fantastic diet food. However, these bright-orange gourds may also be the key to looking fabulous during harsh winter months.
Pumpkin puree is a cheap ingredient that you can use in a slew of DIY beauty products, and it's easy to make your own in less than an hour is easy. Always use a fresh pumpkin for the best results.
Easy Pumpkin Puree Recipe
Cut the gourd in half and remove the seeds and extra gunk. Slice the pumpkin and place on a cookie sheet. Bake at 350 degrees F for about 45 minutes. Peel off the skin (this will be easy after the pumpkin is roasted) and use your food processor to puree. That's all you have to do.
An average 3-pound pumpkin will yield about 3 cups of puree. One pumpkin can have you set for the entire season. Keep your puree in the fridge for up to a week or freeze in small batches for up to three months.
Pumpkin Your Face
Are you dealing with acne? The vitamin A, C, and zinc in pumpkin is a natural exfoliate that helps to reduce acne. Put a small amount of the puree on the breakouts; leave it for a half-hour and then wash your face.
Freshen up your face with a honey and pumpkin mask. Blend a tablespoon of pumpkin with a teaspoon each of raw honey and apple cider vinegar. Apply the mixture onto your face and leave on for 30 minutes before rinsing off.
If you have oily skin, make a facial scrub with pumpkin puree, sugar, and apple cider vinegar. Rub your skin with the mix and leave on for 10 minutes before rinsing it off.
Pumpkin is also perfect for dry skin. Mix 1/4 cup of puree with an egg and a teaspoon each of honey and olive oil. Leave on your face for 20 minutes and then rinse off.
Get smooth lips overnight by applying a thick layer of pumpkin puree to chapped lips before bedtime.
Pamper Your Body
Make a softening body mask with 2 tablespoons of pumpkin puree and a teaspoon of olive oil. Smooth over your body and leave on for 10 minutes before showering away.
Exfoliate naturally with 3 tablespoons each of pumpkin puree and sugar. Gently scrub for five minutes before rinsing off.
Get rid of cracked heels with raw pumpkin puree. Leave it on for 20 minutes before washing it off.
You can make a body butter with 3 tablespoons of puree and coconut oil. It's best to use it in the shower; apply it after you wash up. Rinse off to a softer you.
Shiny Heads
Pumpkin will add shine to dry, damaged hair at a lower cost than fancy hair masks. To make your own blend, mix 2 tablespoons each of pumpkin puree and yogurt, with a teaspoon each of olive oil, honey, and apple cider vinegar. Apply the concoction to your hair and leave it for 20 minutes before thoroughly rinsing it out.
Pumpkin puree beauty treatments are an excellent way to take on the colder seasons. Instead of spending hundreds, go natural for a few dollars of pampering products that nourish your body. One large gourd can provide enough puree to keep your skin and hair soft and smooth throughout the season.

A few words about me
Who is your teacher?
This is my eighteenth year at Helena High School, where I teach English III AP Language, Debate, Speech, AP Seminar, and Honors English 2. In my spare time, I enjoy grading essays, watching the San Diego Padres and Portland Timbers, and buying more books than I could ever hope to read. I travel as often as I can, and occasionally write about and take photos of what I've seen.
I came to Helena High after a period of wandering that included attending law school for two days, coaching debate at Carroll College for four years, and teaching in Great Falls for nine months, but the real decision to become a teacher probably began in a theater in Billings, Montana, when I saw "Dead Poets Society" for the eleventh or twelfth time. As ridiculous as it sounds, that little movie helped me understand that my passion for language and literature was something that could be shared with others.
I believe that education is about challenging people to see the world in a way they never imagined before, using dialogue and discussion. As Paolo Freire wrote, "Only dialogue, which requires critical thinking, is also capable of generating critical thinking." Every minute of our lives is an opportunity for education, if we are only willing to let it be.
Some of my Interests
Yes, teachers have lives outside of school.
When I'm not teaching or grading papers, I spend a great of my time traveling, thinking about traveling, and planning more traveling.
"What is that feeling when you're driving away from people and they recede on the plain till you see their specks dispersing? – it's the too-huge world vaulting us, and it's good-bye. But we lean forward to the next crazy venture beneath the skies." ― Jack Kerouac, On the Road
I enjoy reading, rooting for the San Diego Padres and Portland Timbers, and listening to music. I try to write a little bit, and even though there is a failed novel in a drawer somewhere, I still hope to return to it one day.

FunctionConsider first of all, what is the primary function of this bathroom? Is this a high traffic, heavy use family encounter kind of bathroom, or more of a guest, occasional or spare bathroom? Will you want to keep the counters and sinks spotless and squeaky clean, or will there be an endless arrangement of soaps, shampoos, lotions, hair care products, skin treatments and other bottles and tubes lined up from one end to the other? If your bathroom is mostly for show, you want to select a counter style that's easy to clean, and doesn't reflect smudges or fingerprints easily. If you need a workhorse for a countertop, you'll want to choose a durable, long-lasting surface that can take the beating.
ExposureIf your bathroom countertop is going to be in a medium to high traffic area, you need to consider what kinds of materials it will be exposed to. Will there be lots of moisture? Some bathrooms see so much activity that the counter commonly has some moisture, if not standing water, pretty much all the time. Moisture may cause some countertop materials to weaken with time, and those instances need a non-porous, water-resistant surface. Will there be chemicals such as makeup, hair dye, medical treatments, or other potentially damaging materials spilled or used on the countertop surface? Many times, these can cause stains or permanent damage if the counter isn't designed to withstand them.
MaintenanceSome countertop materials require physical maintenance to reseal or confirm the strength of the installation from time to time. Others may be difficult to clean if exposed to certain chemicals or other spills or could be damaged along certain edges if exposed to abrasives or constant friction from activities.
AppearanceAlong with all the practical reasoning for how to select your bathroom countertop, don't forget to take the time to express yourself. Whether a high-traffic family cleanliness thoroughfare or a sparkling, pristine guest room, your options always include the ability to shine. You probably have selected decorations or a theme for the rest of the room, make the counter a part of your plans too! Create a beautiful encounter for everyone who enters by choosing colors, patterns and features that make their visit to the little necessity room a great one. Assure they have everything at their fingertips that they might need, and plenty of counter space to work in.
SizeSince the countertop is the central surface in the bathroom, consider how big you want to design it and its supporting cabinet to be. Think of all the items you want to include on your display, whether towels, dispensers, deodorizers, or whatever else you might desire, and add to that the items every other person that comes into that room will need to park on the surface there. Will you have sufficient space to comfortably maintain the toiletries and health care items they will normally keep out? Plan for the future, and give yourself and others plenty of growing room.
MaterialsChoosing the right countertop means selecting the correct type of material it is made from. These are some common types, with some ups and downs of each.
- SOLID SURFACE. Solid surface countertops are a man-made manufactured material, including marble dust, resins, and acrylics, with dyes to add color. They are an inexpensive, popular solution for a practical yet appealing bathroom counter.
- GRANITE. Granite is a popular choice for its beauty, durability, and longevity. It resists most stains and surface damage and is easy to clean. The cost for a granite countertop can be higher, but for a long-term solution with a great look and durability, granite is often the way to go.
- MARBLE. Similar to granite, marble is an excellent choice for its beauty, durability, and usefulness. It is also easy to clean and medium ranged in price.
- QUARTZ. A composite created from quartz sand, this beautiful material comes in a wide variety of colors and styles. Very durable, stain resistant and easy to keep clean, quartz is also a popular but somewhat pricey solution for many bathroom remodels.
- TILE. Another popular countertop solution, tile is durable, versatile and inexpensive. By selecting multiple colors, patterns and surfaces of tile, you can create a totally unique and personal look for your entire bathroom.

Mapping the Mind
Mapping The Mind
by Rita Carter
Phoenix, ISBN 0735810190
This beautiful book can be unreservedly recommended to anyone who wants a non-technical guide to brain research. It is superbly illustrated with clear and colourful diagrams and brain-scan images, and, apart from the pictures that adorn the start of each chapter, eschews the page-padding artwork that clogs up the pages of New Scientist and other popular science publications.
Certainly it is a substantially better buy than Susan Greenfield's The Human Brain: A Guided Tour, a work devoid of illustrations and often less than lucid.
Needless to say, this comprehensive round-up of scientific theories and findings will provide many useful items for those who find themselves arguing against dualist or mystical accounts of the mind. Concluding the book, Carter writes:
"As the studies in this book show, when we look inside the brain we see that our actions follow from our perceptions and our perceptions are constructed by brain activity. In turn, that activity is dictated by a neuronal structure that is formed by the interplay of our genes and the environment. There is no sign of some Cartesian antennae tuned into another world." (p.331)
The sound combination of Ockhamite parsimony and open-minded awe is well expressed in the book's final sentence: "There is no need for us to satisfy our sense of wonder by conjuring phantoms – the world within our heads is more marvellous than anything we can dream up."
A very worthwhile addition to the library, and an ideal gift.
Paul Taylor

Resonant investigation of the case of the "amber mafia" became a sensation in Ukraine. The scandal involved Ukraine's MPs Maksym Polyakov and Boryslav Rosenblat, fake representatives of the company from the United Arab Emirates (UAE), ready to pay for the services of politicians to create a regime of "greatest" favor in the field of amber mining.
Mysterious investors from UAE, the richest Arab sheikhs, their firm Fujairah, ready to invest in the extraction of Ukrainian amber, and bribing Ukrainian politicians and officials for millions of hryvnia, a representative of the firm, but in fact Special agent from Ukraine's Anti-Corrution Bureaus (NABU) Kateryna Syvokon, participating of the US Bureau of Federal Investigations (FBI) - all these things stirs the consciousness of Ukrainians.
But alas, there is nothing new under the moon. Almost 40 years ago, US have suffered the same.
They had their own Fujairah firm, their corrupt officials, their amber instead of bait, and even their own special agent.
In 1978, Abdul Enterprises Ltd was registered in the United States, whose owners were incredibly wealthy Arab sheikhs from the United Arab Emirates Abdul Kambir Rahman and Yasir Habib. As expected, the sheikhs, who became rich thanks to the oil, not knowing where to put money, wanted to invest money in the American economy. But since they could not go to the US, all the affairs of the sheikhs on the spot were led by their representative, Melvin Weinberg, who was given the right to dispose of the company's bank account at the Chase Manhattan Bank at his own discretion.
In the role of permanent representative was a well-known and dexterous swindler, who received a term for financial fraud, but for the sake of liberation he was ready to play a role in the secret operation of the FBI.
The operation was codenamed ABSCAM, which stands for Abdullah's "Scam".
Initially, the purpose of the operation was to investigate crimes of theft and antiquarian smuggling, but Weinberg's successful acquaintance re-qualified the operation to investigate political corruption.
A successful acquaintance for Weinberg was the mayor of the city of Camden in New Jersey, Angelo Erriqueti, who agreed to help the sheiks to invest in casinos of Atlantic City (New Jersey).
Gambling became the "amber", which was soon caught by government officials and US politicians. Subsequently, the sheikh's appetites grew, and they began to look for an opportunity to enter the titanium mining and production market. All of them were offered one thing - a monetary reward in exchange for political and other assistance of the Arab sheiks, casinos, which will be opened in New Jersey, titanium mining and production plant.
The meetings took place in the houses of Washington, on a yacht in the state of Florida and hotel rooms in Pennsylvania and New Jersey. Dozens of officials and politicians became interlocutors of Melvin Weinberg. Not all of them agreed, but about 30 people fell for bait and declared their readiness to help the sheikhs.
Needless to say, all these meetings were carefully recorded in the photo, video and audio. For about 2 years, the game of cat and mouse continued, during which the FBI spent about 400 thousand dollars on bribes.
Finally, in 1980, the initiator of the ABSCAM operation, the FBI director, William Webster, decided that the collected evidence was enough, and at a press conference that he had called, he laid out compromising evidence on politicians. Seven members of the US parliament or the Congress came under the corruption.
The scandal was deafening, and there is no wonder - political corruption outrages the townsfolk and voters everywhere, whether it is the USA or Ukraine.
ABSCAM was recognized as one of the best FBI operations and entered the US textbooks on operational work. However, at the same time, the duality of the situation with the provocation of bribes and the use of tried provocateurs like Melvin Weinberg prompted the development of a special legislative and methodological base for such secret FBI operations.
It remains to wait, whether our Ukrainian ABSCAM will end with the condemnation of the persons involved in it.

word wrapping issue
Cosimo Lupo 8 years ago • updated by Emanuele D'Osualdo 8 years ago • 1
I'm using Sublime Text 2 for writing plain text files in Markdown rather than for code, but I get strange word wrappings which don't make any sense such as those in the screenshots attached
When the last character of the line is a bracket or a period, instead of going to the new line together with the word immediately preceeding, it goes all alone to the new line. This is very annoying and has been around for some time (see also here: http://www.sublimetext.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=5214 )
I'm using the latest build of Sublime Text 2 (2210).
I hope somebody fixes this soon or I'll have to find another editor.
I also think fixing this issue is a priority. This makes soft wrapping absolutely unusable for files containing lots of text (markdown-ish, LaTeX, HTML).
Moreover, to my knowledge, there is no way of fixing this through a plugin.

Ohiopyle Great for First Timers and Frequent Flyers
The Lower Yough is live enough so that your experienced river rafters will have plenty of fun, but tame enough that even if your raft flips, it's just an unexpected but fun diversion. What makes it work is the crew of guides from Wilderness Voyageurs who sense the expertise of each raft's crew and keep an extra eye out where needed, but leave well enough alone so everyone has fun, including making mistakes you'll laugh about afterwards.
Rating: Excellent *****

Patrick and his scout troop rafted with us in May of 2015 on the Lower Yough guide escorted trip.
Patrick, thanks for noticing and mentioning our staff. We are quite proud of our tribe of Yough River Guides, and their talents on and off the river.

Art had always been of interest to her. There had been many afternoons in their childhood that Greg had taken her to the galleries of London on free days instead of heading straight home after school. He'd buy them a hot dog to share outside the gallery, before stepping inside. They'd then close their eyes and each put a finger somewhere on the gallery map and those would be the two rooms they'd explore. It had created some of her best childhood memories. And on occasion as adults they had returned to this ritual, particularly when one or the other was going through a tough time…divorce…break up…death. In fact the last time Greg and her had gone had been a few months back, about a month after the death of the detective. He'd talked for several hours about his friend while Samantha listened quietly. This memory drifted through her mind and she brushed it away, looking back at the piece before her.
She gazed at the brush strokes, wanting nothing more than to reach out and touch the piece. She had always wanted art to be experience by more than just one of her senses, but social norms stopped her from giving into that particular want. She was dressed for vacation, in her white sundress and wedged sandels. She'd been there a few days alright, given the light bronze hue her sunkissed skin had taken. Rupert mentioned something about heading to the bathroom and she nodded, not even turning to look in his direction. Trapped in the pull of the painting.

One might think that eating underneath the train tracks is something strictly reserved for those who are a bit down on their luck but in a city that seems to shove stores and restaurants in every nook and cranny, I guess it isn't all that unusual to find some great food where you wouldn't expect…or wouldn't be able to find without GPS aid.
Andy's Shinhinomoto is a popular izakaya located underneath Yurakucho station, easily accessible via the JR Yamamote line. At first, you wouldn't think much of it as the exterior doesn't look like anything special. The interior doesn't get much better. It's small, cramped, and reminded me of some of the seedier bars I've been to in Hong Kong mixes with a bit of…and don't tell me you don't see it too…pirate ship.
The place is run by Andy, a very tall, very bald Englishman who I overhear speaking extremely fluent Japanese so I assume he's been in Tokyo for awhile. I arrive at around 6:00pm and stumble through my usual routine of extremely poor Japanese and then speaking English like I would to a six-year old. Andy, hearing my vocal troubles, comes out from the kitchen to greet me at the front. Although he said he's full for the night and I don't have a reservation, he kindly manages to squeeze me in to the front counter.
The menu is available in English, although it isn't bilingual so explaining to the Japanese servers what you would like might be a bit of a challenge. One or two of them speak passable English or you could always ask Andy for help.
Shinhinomoto's specialty is fresh fish, which Andy buys from Tsukiji Market fresh each morning. The special of the day was John Dory, which I ordered along with a dish of sauteed Eringi mushrooms and a plate of garlic butter king prawns. I chose to forego the sashimi platter (which I hear is great since it's fresh) since I had sashimi earlier for lunch.
I also ordered a bottle of Sapporo, which was huge! Twice the size of a regular bottle, I believe.
The mushrooms arrived first, served with a side of picked greens and a slice of tomato. I should mention that I love all kinds of mushrooms and these were no different. Simply cooked so that the natural earthy flavors and crunchy, slightly stringy texture shines. Fantastic.
My John Dory arrived soon after, a whole side fillet of the fish served with the same salad and a dish of hot sauce. The fish is cooked perfectly, with the skin side delicious and crispy as well. I'm not too sure about the hot sauce with the fish but maybe I just haven't had too much spicy food since I've been in Japan.
My prawns arrived last, with three very large prawns under a bed of sauteed onions. The garlic and butter tasted great but the prawns themselves were slightly overdone. When you butterfly a prawn like this and cook it even a little too long, they tend to lose moisture and become a bit chewy. They tasted good enough but maybe a bit too long on the heat.
The draw of Andy's Shinhinomoto's is really the ambiance. The train passes by every couple minutes and the mixed crowd make it a very unique place to be. It is extremely popular with both locals and tourists and getting a seat without a reservation is unlikely so call ahead (03-3214-8021) to book a table. I arrived at 6:00pm but by 6:30, the place was packed and bustling.
Expecting the usual tiny izakaya dishes, I ordered three dishes but I was actually pretty stuffed after the John Dory. My bill came to 3,100 yen, a very decent price for the amount and quality of food. While it may not have the flair in presentation or perhaps the upscale creative taste of somewhere like Kaikaya by the Sea, Andy's Shinhinomoto provides large portions of honest, delicious food at reasonable prices.

Famous Bangladeshi hacker TiGER-M@TE known for his big defacements strikes again! This time he teams up with another hacker 'h311 c0d3' for another big defacement campaign.
According to mirror records on Zone-H, These hackers managed to deface Malawi Google, Yahoo, MSN, Windows and many more top domains using DNS poisoning attack.
During talk with 'The Hacker News', hackers disclose that they collectively hacked into Malawi (.mw) Domain Registrar website and also target Master and Slave DNS servers.
The attackers changed the authoritative DNS records for the affected domains, to point the domain names to their own web server with a deface page hosted on it.
All this could have been much worse if the attacker had other goals in his mind rather than defacing famous websites. Imagine how many accounts could have been compromised, if these websites were redirected to a phishing page, instead of a defacement page.
At the time of reporting, Domain Registrar fix the DNS server and all affected domains are pointed back to original servers. You can find all defacement mirror records for TiGER-M@TE and h311 c0d3 here.

Editor - Wes Taylor;
18 Station Lane, Walton on Trent, Swadlingcote, Derbys. DE12 8NA
24 - 26 September 1999
The organisers of the NAMHO'99 Conference extend a warm welcome to you. It
is now 20 years since the formation of NAMHO and this, the tenth biennial
conference, is being held in the well known and picturesque mining district
of the Royal Forest of Dean. An exciting programme of speakers, underground
visits and surface walks has been arranged to cater for all interests,
abilities and ages.
Based at the Civil Service Motoring Association (CSMA) site at Parkend, the
Conference looks set to be another success. The organisers are fortunate to
have found such a convenient and attractive centre for the main events and a
marquee has been arranged for the evening meal and entertainment on Saturday
night. Camping, chalets and caravan pitches are available on site, as well
as an adventure playground for children and an indoor swimming pool.
The Conference theme is mainly based upon British mining customs but it also
includes speakers describing mining around the Forest of Dean and
contributions from the Mines Inspectorate and Mines Rescue Service. Simon
Timberlake, a mining archaeologist, will raise an awareness of mining
features which may be more important than is normally assumed. The talks
will end with reminiscences from a well known NAMHO member who actually
worked in coal and iron ore mines in the Forest of Dean during the Second
World War.
On Saturday evening, Mr Watts will show his excellent film on Free Mining in
the Forest of Dean. The evening will also include a chance to see Dave
Carlisle's very entertaining recreation of a nineteenth century mining
The underground trips and surface walks have been categorised to emphasise
suitable abilities and range from the very easy to the very ambitious. The
organisers hope that member's families will make the most of the venue and
NAMHO events are an opportunity for member organisations and their members
to meet like-minded people, to exchange information, to provide the mining
history community with an annual point of contact and an opportunity to get
out of their own environment. We hope you will enjoy this years event.
Some of the delegates at this Conference will remember the "Mining
Conference at Beamish on 23-24 June 1979 when the final session
(5.00-5.30pm) was a discussion on "The Future". My notes of this meeting
say that it was resolved to:-
a. to set up a Standing Council of Club Representatives
b. for these Representatives to meet at Matlock Bath in September 1979
c. to arrange a biennial conference and for the first conference to be held
in Shropshire in June 1981.
d. admission charge to Conference to be no more than £5 and for there to
be trips on the Friday and Monday before and after the Conference.
The first Council Meeting was held in Matlock Bath on 16 September 1979 and
the "launching contributors" (at £5 each) were Alston Moor MRS, Beamish
Museum, Cambrian AT, Carn Brea MS, Chatterley Whitfield Mining Museum,
Clearwell Caves, Earby MRS, Ironbridge Gorge Museum, North Cardigan MC,
North Wales CC, NMRS, PDMHS, Plymouth MMC and Shropshire CMC.
Earlier NAMHO Conferences were held at Ironbridge (1981), Leeds (1983),
Matlock Bath (1985), Cornwall (1987), Ambleside (1989), Llechwedd (1991),
Isle of Man (1993), Lilleshall (1995) and Darley Dale (1997).
So it is that in 1999 we are now holding our 10th Conference. The format
seems to have changed little but the cost has gone up a bit!
I would like to welcome all who attend this Conference and I am sure that
there will be plenty to interest everyone. The four local NAMHO member
organisations have been working hard for the last two years to organise this
Conference and I am confident that we shall enjoy the fruits of their
labours. I am most grateful for all they have done.
NAMHO has not completed its work. At this conference we hope to launch our
revised "Access Code" that has been produced with the co-operation of the
Mines Inspectorate (note also their contribution to this Newsletter) and to
launch a new series of books that have been published in association with
Tempus Publishing Ltd. We are also collecting information for a revised
Mining Heritage Guide next year.
Next year NAMHO breaks with tradition when we have a special International
Millennium Conference which is to be held in Cornwall. A lot of work has
already been done on the organisation of the Conference and provisional
programmes and accommodation details are available at this Conference.
I hope that you enjoy this weekend and, as this is the 10th Conference, I
shall give a prize to the first person who proves to me that they have
attended all previous NAMHO Conferences.
Dr Ivor J Brown
NAMHO Chairman
The death of a man who fell down a shaft while excavating at a disused
lead-silver mine at Combe Martin in Devon on 27 June 1999 attracted much
media attention, some of it critical of the way those involved had concealed
their activities from the authorities and responsible voluntary sector
associations. HM Inspectorate of Mines assisted the police with
investigations and have provided the following information in the hope that
members of NAMHO will learn from this tragic incident.
"The dead man was the owner of a farm and the shafts of the mine, which was
last abandoned in 1881, lay within his property. He and three friends, none
with any previous mining experience but sharing an interest in mining
archaeology, had been excavating the two shafts for more than ten years. At
the time of the incident they had reached a depth of 40m in the second
shaft, clearing debris in a small skip wound by a diesel winch to a landing
incorporated in a headgear improvised from scaffolding tubes. The man
appears to have fallen to his death in the shaft as he attempted to land a
skip of debris by leaning out to pull the skip to the shaft side. The shaft
top was not fitted with safety trap doors; the landing had no handrails or
toeboards and the dead man had not been wearing a safety harness. If any
members of NAMHO are undertaking shaft clearing operations without using
these well recognised safety features, they are urged to do so."
NAMHO wishes to it make clear that no members were involved in the
activities at Combe Martin. Advice on safety in shaft work is readily
available to members from the professional mining engineers within NAMHO. If
you are in any doubt, then contact W J Taylor, Hon Secretary, and he will
arrange for you to get advice from a professional mining engineer who is a
member of one of the NAMHO
Carn Brea Mining Society celebrated its 25th Anniversary this year. To
commemorate this achievement, the Society held a "Vanning Contest" which was
held on a damp Sunday in June. A good time was had by all with the
competition being won by ex Geevor Geologist Charles Smith.
A new initiative to tackle unsafe mines, the Land Stabilisation Programme,
has been launched.
It will be administered by English Partnerships and funding will be made
available to local authorities and National Parks Authorities to stabilise
areas of abandoned non-coal mining areas which have been left in a hazardous
condition. The programme will fund the stabilisation costs including

All very nice if you get a slice of the action but what will be the effect
on the classic mining sites around the country?
The Coal Authority of GB has now adapted an "open door policy". Its first
public meeting was attended by four outsiders (including two miners and a
solicitor). Its second meeting is to be held in Leeds on 14 September and,
according to a note in "Newscene", (formerly Coal News), the house-journal
of RJB Mining, further information can be obtained from the website:
This presupposes that all persons who may be interested in attending have a
computer connected to the Internet. However, all attempts by the writer to
gain access to this website have failed.
A telephone call to 01623 427162 (a number obtained from other sources)
provided the information that the meeting would be held at the Royal
Armouries Museum, Leeds, LS10 1LT at 11.00am on 14 September 1999.

Balfour Beatty has been fined £1.2m, plus £100,000 costs, following the
collapse of the Heathrow Express tunnel at Heathrow Airport in 1994. The
Company, which was the main contractor for the project, admitted failing to
protect workers and the public from "very serious risks".
This fine is said to be the highest for a single Company under the 1974
Health & Safety at Work Act. Geoconsult, tunnelling experts from Austria,
was found guilty of two similar offences and was fined £500,000, plus
£100,000 costs.

The winner of the Underground Section of the 1998 Competition was Paul
Deakin with a photograph taken in East Foss Barytes Mine, Scotland. Second
place went to C McCombe with a photograph of a miner lying on his side
shovelling coal in Ayle Colliery, Northumberland.
RJB is to invest £20m in a 295yd long state-of-the-art longwall face at Daw
Mill Collliery, Warwickshire. The face will have a life of 15 months and
2.5m tons of coal will be produced, extracting a 5m slice from the top of
the 10m thick Warwickshire Thick Coal seam.
Most of the equipment will be supplied from factories in Wigan, Worcester,
the Midlands and Yorkshire. Daw Mill is one of the fifteen collieries
operated by RJB Mining

The Old Coal Washer at the Lady Victoria Colliery, Midlothian, Scotland has
been restored. This is the latest phase of the conservation of the surface
structures at the colliery which has been ongoing since 1985.
The Old Washer was built around 1911 and consisted of bash tanks for
cleaning raw coal. The feed elevator has been refurbished and visitors can
see the jigs which were in common use until the closure of the mine in the
early 1980's.

With the closure of the Cornish South Crofty tin mine in 1997, the Florence
Mine in Cumbria is the only UK mine raising a metalliferous mineral as its
main product. Haematite is mined at Florence for use in pigments and in
foundry annealing processes.
Mining Journal
There has not been any progress on the proposed sale of South Crofty mine to
Welsh businessman Wilf Hughes.
Kerrier councillors are refusing to accept that South Crofty mine is dead
and are continuing to back the reopening of the mine. Recently there has
been a proposal to build a University of Cornwall campus on the site.
As it now looks doubtful that South Crofty will reopen, suggestions are
being made to safeguard the headframe as a lasting memorial to many years of
mineral mining in Cornwall.
It is known that some members have been consulted and have commented on Step
1 reports for Lead, Iron and Steel and quarrying (stone extraction). A copy
of Step 3 (Coal) has also been seen. Step 1 of Alum, Tin, Arsenic and
Gunpowder may have been seen by non-council representatives. Bloomeries,
Salt, Oil, Gas and Water Power, which are also of interest to members of
NAMHO have, apparently, not yet been started.
The writer, I J Brown, has only seen one Step 3 report and none of the Step
4 reports although eight have been completed. The position of these is
being investigated.

RJB is to close the North Selby Mine next year with the loss of about 300
jobs. RJB has already closed Whitemoor Mine and merged North Selby with
Stillingfleet. The Company has been frustrated by geological problems and
poor productivity at the mine. The out put from the Selby complex will be
less than 6m tons per year, a figure that is less than half the original
planned output.
A RJB spokesman has said that by concentrating production in areas with
lower geological risk will provide the more secure and stable operations
required in the current economic climate.

I recently discovered that my Oldham Caplamp Battery was not holding its
charge. Fortunately I made this discovery as I was setting out to open
Scott's Grotto1 to the public for a couple of hours rather than during a
more extended underground expedition and so I was able to take alternative
I tried, unsuccessfully, to contact the chap who had sold me my old battery
so I set out to discover current suppliers, prices et hoc genus omne. A few
minutes2 on the world wide web provided a list of suppliers of caving
equipment. These were then invited to send price lists and catalogues.
This research told me that the technology had moved on and that there were
many more modern caplamp models but, reasoning that I already had the
headset and battery cover and more than enough Oldham spares to last out my
lifetime, I decided that a replacement battery was the best choice.
The best price by far was offered by Stuart Kirby - Purveyor of Illuminating
Experiences - who carries on his business in a small village in
Gloucestershire. As I was visiting Gloucester in connexion with another
society's activities, I was able to collect the battery and avoid the cost
of postage (not inconsiderable - the battery is mostly lead, after all).
If other members find themselves in a similar position, I would strongly
suggest that they contact Mr Kirby. His telephone number is 01531 650226 and
facsimile number 01531 650012.
Being a very cautious person, I am not in the habit of giving unsolicited
testimonials but I felt that others might be interested. Mr Kirby agreed
that I
could offer his name and contact details to the Editor for publication.
1 Scott's Grotto is in Scotts Road, Ware, Hertfordshire and is open
Summer Saturday and Bank Holiday afternoons from 2:00pm to 4:30pm.
Admission is free (donations invited) and a visit is very worthwhile if you
are in the area.

An international conference is being organised by the Geological Survey of
Ireland, Shannon Development and the Mining Heritage Society of Ireland on
behalf of the MINET project. MINET is an EU funded project established to
develop a pilot network of European Mine Heritage Centres. The project
involves partners from France, Ireland, Italy, Spain and the UK. A two day
conference is planned for 4 - 5 November 1999 and it will be based in
Nenagh, Co Tipperary. There will be pre and post-conference field trips

The next International Mining Congress will be held on 13 - 16 September
2000 at Milos, Greece. Preliminary information is available from the
following web site: http://heliotopos.net/conf/immhc
"We are involved in a Leader funded transnational project with mine heritage
groups from Parys Mountain in Wales and West Cornwall. In order to further
the mining migration aspect of the project we are attempting to identify the
origin of names in the Avoca valley in Co Wicklow. We are trying to trace
mine directors at the Cronebane Mine in East Avoca who met at Cronebane on
7th November 1798.
They were:- Edward Hawkins, Macclesfield; Bryan Hodgson, Craigmarsh; John
Jefferies, Gloucester; Robert Hodgson, Congleton and Thomas Weaver,
We are also looking for a Henry Hodgson who developed the mine at West Avoca
and our mineral tramway, the Arklow Harbour and a chemical and manure works
at Arklow. We believe he came to Avoca around 1820 but this is not definite.
He was born on 6th January 1796 and we are trying to trace his place of
birth and wonder if he is related to the above mentioned Hodgsons.
We also understand that approximately fifty miners emigrated from Avoca to
Clithermoor (this spelling may not be correct) in Cumbria circa 1860 and
would appreciate confirmation/further information of this migration.
Have any NAMHO members any information/advice on the above subject or who
could advise us on how to research the above mentioned miners. I can be
contacted at:- Ballymoneen, Avoca, Co Wicklow, Ireland"

The Cornish Miner's Association held a gala on a very wet day last May to
celebrate hundreds of years of copper and tin mining in Cornwall. The march
started at the gates of South Crofty and the banners of many Cornish mines
were paraded by former miners through Camborne town centre. It is hoped
that the Gala will become an annual event.
Five former South Crofty miners have once again proved the old maxim about a
Cornishman being found at the bottom of every mine in the world is true.
The Cornishmen were recruited to manage the development of a new nickel mine
in Brazil and to train a workforce of twelve young Brazilians. The new mine
was at a former open pit operation and is owned by RTZ Brazil at Fortaleza
de Mines near Passos.
The first blast for the 5m x 5m access ramp took place on 27 July 1998. The
first blast in the ore body was in mid May 1999, some two months ahead of
schedule. A witness to the first nickel ore reaching the surface said "the
Cornish miners have certainly used their experience and knowledge well in
training the young Brazilian workforce".
Cambridge Mineral Resources believes it is one step further in its quest to
locate diamonds in Ireland. The secret location is in the Inishowen,
Donegal, area.
An aerial survey of the area has been commissioned and, hopefully, the
geological map produced will indicate the locations at which to bore test
The company also holds a licence to prospect for gemstones in the Falkland
Islands. Preliminary investigation have suggested that there are reserves
of gold and diamonds on the Islands

The obituaries in the national broad sheet press that followed the recent
sudden death of Prof Barri Jones all made reference to his study of the
archaeology of Roman Britain and Roman mining.
His work on the Roman gold mining centre at Dolaucothi led him to
investigate the ancient mines of Rio Tinto and Las Medulas in Spain. He
also organised countless excavations at Llanymynech where a perfectly
preserved Roman lead mine was exposed.

Contract Hire, sometimes referred to as an Operating Lease, is a long term rental agreement. Contracts range from 12 to 60 months and are tailored to the business's requirements.
The Contract Hire Company reclaims the VAT on the original purchase, which reduces your monthly rentals (which are + VAT). Contract Hire is a very popular choice for VAT registered companies as they can claim back 50% of the VAT on the finance element for cars and generally 100% for commercials (subject to no private use, no exempt turnover and not being on the Flat Rate VAT Scheme).
On contracts with maintenance the VAT on the service element is 100% recoverable. One of the major benefits is that there are no disposal worries as the future value is underwritten by the leasing company. Another benefit of Contract Hire is that it is generally 'off balance sheet funding' (subject to legislation change) which means it can improve your gearing ratio (assets to borrowing ratio) and therefore possibly your borrowing ability in the future.
* If the vehicle exceeds the contract mileage an excess mileage charge will apply. These will be specified on your quotation. You should try and estimate the distance you will travel as accurately as possible to try and avoid excess mileage charges at the end of your contract.

Years Edit
Mater'Ciela was predicted and theorized to have begun 1,000,000 million years ago by research.
U.T. (Universal Time) Began in 1100100 A.A. Edit
Mater'Ciela's main form of year term, it started and began in Miterria, and is now used widely by all regions and countries.
A.A. (After Accomplishment) Started in 1100000 U.T. Edit
A year term that began on the year that marked the Hymmnos Clan colonizing and inhabiting Elemia, it was the first year term to have been created. However, when the Universal Time Term was created 100 years later, the A.A. was soon forgotten by most of the Hymmnosens, and their time term was replaced with U.T. Nowadays, this term is only used during school studies, and is rarely used by society or Hymmnosens.
B.T. (Before Transgression) Edit
A term for the years that happened before the Transgression Wars (1520600 U.T.), it was created after the event and used for events that occurred before the War.
A.T. (After Transgression) Started in 1520600 U.T. Edit
A.R. (After Return) Edit
A term that was created in 1521500 UT (900 A.T.) by Altheumelia Precielm, who decided that create this new year term to mark the reunion of Mater'Ciela and Mobius' populations and society. This term was approved of by the Mobian Government and the Kosmirius Government, and is now used alongside U.T., now replacing A.T.

In the past I volunteered at the annual festival for abandoned and homeless animals called Cause 4 Paws. The proceeds went to our wonderful and much needed and appreciated Abandoned Pet Rescue.
As usual, we had a great turnout of folks with their beloved critter companions, many of whom had their pictures displayed on Channel 10's news website. There were representatives from the tiniest, most spastic Chihuahua to fabulously beautiful Great Pyrenees. Some of them were decked out in their finest collar and scarf accessories, but I couldn't help but feel a little bit sorry for some of the dogs. I know it must be scads of fun and quite acceptable for humans to adorn their furry friends with "diamond" collars, bright bandanas and message-bearing coats or T-shirts, but some people get downright schizoid with it.
There were tiny dogs being paraded around wearing goggles and sunglasses, hats with elastic bands around their chins and huge costumes that would put a Vegas showgirl to shame. Come on, people; you're satisfying your need for attention at the expense of the well being and comfort of your pets!
Call me a party pooper if you want, but being the advocate for animals that I am, I could see the distress on the faces of some of these poor critters, and knew they were thinking, "Why me; what did I do to deserve this?" Disagree? Tell me all about it at firstname.lastname@example.com.
There was a hair stylist in the town where I went to high school who not only changed her hair to pastel pink, blue, yellow or green every few months, but also dyed her two standard poodles to match! I asked about her and the dogs at a high school reunion years later, and was told that her hair had become thin to the point of having to wear a wig, but her dogs had both died of melanomas.
Dear creatures of planet Earth,
On behalf of all of us who have compassion, understanding of and respect for other living creatures, I ask your indulgence and forgiveness for the multitude of us who do not. I pray that you will be given the ability to recognize the psychopaths as well as the just plain thoughtless and stupid of our species, that God will grant you the courage and opportunity to run when you encounter them, and that someone with selfless love in their heart will find and adopt you.
Love of all animals…that's what the world needs more of now! Keep the love coming by sharing that "love affair" with your furry or feathery friend(s) with us. I promise NOT to keep it a secret. I'm so anxious to get those sizzling stories in my email at email@example.com that I'm sitting here with worms in my mouth (baited breath). Allie

A Sydney-based aged care organisation have set a record for the sector, achieving their third consecutive award for outstanding performance in business.
The acknowledged provider, SummitCare, took away Gold at the 2014 Australian Organisational Excellence Awards last Thursday, following from their previous Gold in 2012 and Silver in 2009.
The national ceremony took place in Melbourne at Etihad Stadium, hosted by the Australian Organisational Excellence Foundation.
The award recognises any organisation committed to the principles of the Australian Business Excellence Framework (ABEF).
SummitCare CEO Cynthia Payne said she is proud to say her team have not only applied the requisite framework, but sustained excellence strategies during a time of unprecedented government reform in Australian aged care.
Ms Payne added that while adapting to the wider repositioning of the industry, the organisation was busy with their own internal changes, including a major re-brand and launch of their new in-home care service, SummitCare HomeCare.
"The fact that we have received such an accolade during a time of significant change demonstrates SummitCare's strengths; that our team is highly skilled, capable and able to quickly adapt as required," Ms Payne said.
"We would not have met the high standards they expected had it not been for the professionalism we have in all parts of our organisation, driven by our values of warmth, worth and wellbeing," she said.
The ABEF forms part of a global community of 80 excellence awards programs, including the Baldrige Criteria for Performance Excellence in the US, the EFQM Excellence Model in Europe and the Singapore Quality Award.
"Our award achievements put us in the company of some very prominent international organisations across many sectors," Ms Payne said.
"We are proud to help put Australian aged care on the global stage. Our sector is set to be one of the most important in coming years, and SummitCare is well positioned to continue its leadership role."
