"Thank you, Mom!" and "More"

Back flash to early childhood:“Pat, would you like to go over to your bother Jim’s?” my father said, to my mother. “No, I don’t want her around that stuff,” Mom replied. The “her” my late mother referred to in her comment was me. My father too passed on to his Heavenly home. With Mother’s Day this Sunday, what would I like to say to Mom now? “Thank you, Mom, for protecting me from being around…

important bee/pollinator psa!

meet sumac. this tree has a subspecies that is often seen as a pest plant to humans, due to its propensity for giving humans itchy, scaly rashes on contact with skin or mucus membranes. poison sumac will yield whitish/yellowish/greenish berries, while other, non-poisonous sumacs will have red berries with little hairs on them.

another way to identify poison sumac is that the flowers on poison sumac sprout from below the leaflets on the stem, while non-poisonous varieties have the flowers at the terminus of the leaflets.

however, poison sumac as a subspecies is ONLY poisonous to humans. other animals have no problem with it, in fact, pollinators LOVE sumac of all kinds.

the winged or "shining" sumac pictured above is NON-POISONOUS, and is blooming where i live (Ashland, KY). there are tens of thousands of wild bees of many different species swarming it, as well as pollen-eating wasps, pollinating flies, and pollinating beetles.

consider leaving this plant alone when landscaping, unless it is in a highly trafficked area or is likely to have kids messing with it.

your local bees will thank you!

If you receive water from the Ohio river or rivers that flow from the Ohio river you are in the effected area.

So check where you get your water if you live in any of the yellow counties.

-------------------------------

Affects Of Chemicals.

Chemicals spilt.

Vinyl Chloride

Butyl acrylate

Ethylhexyl acrylate.

---------------------

Vinyl Chloride

Vinyl Chloride has been linked too liver damage when exposed to between 300 and 500 ppm, it is a known carcinogen that causes a rare liver cancer to form.

The other two chemicals pose very little harm.

Should you be worried.

This is an ongoing situation but as of currently only very small traces amounts of Butyl Acrylate have been found in the Ohio river.

The overall danger is minimal.

If you receive your water directly from the Ohio river you can switch to bottled water for extra safety if you feel the need to. 

I will personally be doing this.

But if your outside the Ohio river basin you have 0 worry and for those of us living here the only slight concern should be had if you water comes from the river or a river being fed by the Ohio river.

This is a continued situation and I will update it as new information comes out

Looking for female friends in the Ashland KY area

[mybeautifulchristianjourney]

Kim Davis, the former county clerk in Kentucky who in 2015 refused to sign a marriage license for two same-sex couples, is appealing again—this time after jury verdicts last week in civil lawsuits brought by the couples. Two juries in parallel proceedings in an Ashland, Ky., federal courthouse reached different conclusions…

Pinta was built 16 years later to accompany the Nina. Both ships were built in Valenca, Brazil, by eighth-generation Portuguese shipwrights. It took a 20-person crew 32 months to build the Nina and 36 months to build the Pinta. It is a larger version of the archetypal caravel. Historians consider the caravel the Space Shuttle of the fifteenth century.

The Nina and Pinta set sail in 1492 with crews of 24 and 26 people, respectively. Today, each ship usually has crews of at least 10.

While in port, the general public is invited to visit the ships for a walk-aboard, self-guided tour. Admission charges are $8.50 for adults, $7.50 for seniors and $6.50 for students 5–16. Children 4 and under are Free. The ships are open every day from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. No reservations necessary. 

Teachers or organizations wishing to schedule a 30 minute guided tour with a crew member should call 787-672-2152 or visit our website www.ninapinta.org, click on ‘Take a Tour’ and fill out online form. Minimum of 15. $5 per person. No Maximum. Email ninapintatour@gmail.com 

Historic replicas of Columbus' ships, The Nina and Pinta sailing Ohio River this fall

PARKERSBURG, W.Va. — You can step aboard a bit of maritime history starting this weekend as replicas of The Nina and Pinta — two of three ships Christopher Columbus guided from Spain to The Bahamas in 1492 — will be docked at Point Park, 113 Ann St., Parkersburg from Friday, Sept. 21 until their departure early Wednesday, morning Sept. 26.

The ships open to the general public from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. Friday, Sept. 21 through Tuesday, Sept. 25. The boats will also be making seven other Ohio River port city stops this fall through mid November.

The closest it will be to Huntington is a Friday, Nov. 9 through Monday, Nov. 18 stay at Ashland Port & Riverfront Park 50 15th St., Ashland. Other stops are: Sept. 28 through Oct. 2, at Heritage Port in Wheeling, W.Va., Oct. 4-16 at Station Square in Pittsburgh, Pa., Oct. 19-23 at Marietta Harbor, Marietta, Ohio, Oct. 26-31 at Haddad Riverfront Park in Charleston, W.Va., Nov. 2-7 at City Park Dock in Gallipolis, Ohio, Nov. 9-18 at Ashland Port and Riverfront Park, and then Nov. 20-22 at Limestone Landing Park in Maysville, Ky.

This is the first stop in Ashland since 2015. The boats were last in Huntington in 2012.

The Nina replica was built first when American engineer and maritime historian John Patrick Sarsfield was hired by the Virgin Islands-based Columbus Foundation to design and construct the 15th Century Caravel in 1988. The Nina was built by hand and without the use of power tools and is considered to be the most historically correct Columbus Replica ever built.

Co-designer Jonathon Nance, a British maritime historian and lead project researcher, produced the Nina's 1,919 square foot sail plan.

as a longtime follower i am ofc pleased about your success in your medical educational journey but seeing you returning to your historical roots has me 😭😭😭

I live like so much closer to ashland than I did for most of my life honestly I was long overdue for a trip (KY is a state predominantly of yawningly vast farmlands and bucolic ass towns to explore)

and none of our eras are ever gone, just buried under layers of other sediment, ready to be uncovered by archaeologists...
