On October 24th 1682 the portrait painter William Aikman was born near Arbroath.
Our second painter today, William Aikman might not be as well known to most of you, but the third pic I have posted her is instantly recognisable, well in my opinion anyway, as the subject of a recent post, the poet Allan Ramsay. My favourite however is pic three of Patie Birnie, the Fiddler of Kinghorn, what jovial looking man, don’t you agree?
Aikman had planned a career in business. His cousins ran a well established import-export business at Leghorn servicing Anglo-Italian trade. The deaths of his elder brother and father made him, as a very young man, laird of his family estate at Cairnie, on the edge of Arbroath. He came under pressure from his mother’s family, the Clerks of Penicuik (his uncle was John Clerk of Penicuik), to study for the Bar but became neither lawyer nor merchant. After a decade of artistic study and travel he emerged as the leading Scottish painter of his generation.
After a short stint in Edinburgh he had moved to London by 1704 and continued his own training. He visited Italy, and through contacts of his cousins, went on to Turkey and Greece. The funds for this extended trip were raised through the sale of the family estate and property in New Jersey.
Aikman returned to Scotland in 1711, perhaps precipitated by the news of his early mentor, John de Medina ’s death whose role he took over as painter to the Scottish aristocracy and gentry. He was perfectly placed to do so as there were very few other portrait painters in Scotland at that time. In addition, Aikman belonged to the society that he painted and his family and friends helped speed the introductions to Scottish patrons and the Scottish community in London.
William Aikman spent the last decade of his life there painting amongst others the prime minister, Sir Robert Walpole, and various royal sitters. He died on 7th June 1731.

Quote
But the best glass is in the chancel, depicting St George and St Edmund above a landscape of Suvla Bay, and is by William Aikman in 1925. St Edmund and St George remember Edmund Gay, who was a soldier in the infamous 1st/5th Battalion of the Norfolk Regiment. Largely recruited from farmworkers on estates in north Norfolk, they sailed for Gallipolli, and were wiped out during the attack on Anafarta in Suvla Bay on the 12th August 1915. Because they had fallen behind enemy lines, they were listed as missing, and a Norfolk legend grew up that they had vanished into a mysterious cloud and were taken up out of this world. This sounds bizarre, but it was of a piece with legends like the Angel of Mons leading the British troops to escape death in Flanders, and with the great rise in spiritualism in this country in the years immediately after the War. [...] Many of the dead boys were workers from the Sandringham estate, and when the bodies were eventually found and identified this knowledge was kept from Queen Alexandra, because it was felt that the truth would be too upsetting for her. Thus, she died believing the legend.

"SHAMEFUL STORY MAN'S ABUSE," Hamilton Spectator. May 15, 1912. Page 16. ---- William Hunter Sent Up For Trial To-day ---- Wife Said He Slashed Her With Butcher Knife ---- Heavy Fines In Two More Blind Pig Cases. ---- Limping painfully into the court room on the arm of Dr. Luna, who has been attending her, Mrs. Cora Hunter, 6 Cannon street cast, told the court this morning that about 2 o'clock fast Saturday morning, her husband, William Hunter, attacked her with a botcher knife while crazed with liquor.
"He lost his job through drink, and when he came home he was almost mad. He told me that he might a well finish me, and I tried to escape from the house, but he lunged at me with the knife and stabbed me in the thigh," said Mrs. Kunter. Continuing, the little woman said that her husband was continually under the influence of liquor and he abused her shamefully. The left him some time ago, but he came to her and pleaded for her to go back to him, saying that he had quit drinking. When she went back to him he was worse and he kicked and hit her, so she said.
Sergeant Teck and Constable Dove testified that they were in the vicinity of the house in the morning in question and they heard the woman scream, the neighbors were all at their windows and they decided to make an investigation. When they gained an entrance to the house, Mrs. Hunter was lying exhausted on a sofa, her clothes soaked with blood, and Hunter was in the kitchen, mumbling to himself. Sergant Tuck said the man was on the verge of delirium tremens. Dr. Lunz was summoned by the officers to attend the injured woman and Hunter was taken to the cells.
"It's a wonder to me that he stopped after the first blow with the knife. It might easily have been murder," said his worship.
Through his lawyer, Carmen Awres, Hunter pleaded "not guilty" and declined to elect. He was committed for trial.
FINED $100 EACH Paul Ropeswick, 391 Sherman avenue north, and Attetic Tafanio, Sherman avenue north, enriched the court treasury to the extent of $100 each this morning, a result of the police locating more "Joy Juice" than the laws allow at their homes on Saturday afternoon. Sergeant Gills and Constable Heals told of dropping in unexpectedly at the bungalows, and although it was vigorously denied that there was any nectar in the houses, the discovered sufficient "wicked water" to put a small army to sleep.
"I am receipt of a communication effort that the police were aware of the fact that Tofanio breaking the law, but they refused to arrest him and he gave them liquor. It was also stated in the communication that he would not have been arrested yet but for the Inspector," said his worship
"I suppose you mean the inspector of the division, not the license inspector. Well one good thing about this case is the fact that it proves conclusively that the morals of the police force are improving. That's one consolation,' replied Chief Smith.
SERIOUS CHARGE William Arnold, a young lad residing on Clarke avenue, was committed for trial on a serious offense, preferred against him by Vera Boughner, Aikman avenue, a little girl of 14 years. Arnold pleaded not guilty and declined to plead. If Arnold is found guilty of the offense he is liable to an imprisonment of 14 years in the penitentiary, with the lash.
MUST STAY AWAY. "I don't want to live with her. Not me. There won't be half as many cups broken if I get out of the house, believe me?" shouted Thomas Simpson. 217 Queen street south, when his wife, Mary, told the court that her breadwinner assaulted her. She did not want him punished - just wanted him to stay away from the homestead, that was all.
Simpson gave the court to understand that tea-cups, saucers, plates and kitchen utensils in general volleyed against his dome of thought. like hail against a window.
The magistrate ordered Simpson to stay away from his wife in future, and with a smile of victory beaming on her face. Mrs. Simpson gave a glance of disdain at hubby and stormed out the door.
WORKED ON SUNDAY. While the church bells were pealing merrily last Sunday morning, Dima Minot, James street north, was plying the trade of his forefathers, that of a shoe shiner. When Constable Tuck peered through the window, he spied Minot slapping a mirror-like shine on the pedals of a customer. Minot pleaded guilty and the cashier's trained right arm slid over the throne and plucked a five case note
JAG COST $10. Henry Woodrow was designated on the roster as a d. and d. He admitted it and breezed over the bridge, when his worship requested a $10 fine. Constable Piper said that Woodrow attempted to gain admittance to a house on Ferguson avenue north in the early hours of this morning.
WIFE DID NOT APPEAR. A non-support charge was registered after the name of John Charney on, the roster, but Mrs. Charney forgot to call around to press the charge and hubby was remanded until to-morrow.
RODE ON SIDEWALK. William and Donald Henderson, 195 Emerald street north, are brothers. Each is the proud possessor of a bicycle. Thoughtlessly they rode the prized machines on the sidewalk and right in plain view of a constable. The Henderson family is poorer by $10 to-day.
LIGHT WENT OUT. Harry Lampman, 178 Queen street south, admitted that the rear light on his automobile was out last evening. By the magistrate's ruling Lampman is out $5.
LIGHTS OUT, TOO. Nelson Gross failed to put in an appearance to explain why the rear lights of his 'gasoline buggy' were out. That did not deter his worship from imposing a $5 fine, however, and Constable Piper was detailed to break the heart-breaking news to defendant. CASE DISMISSED Truancy Officer Hunter complained that John Taglerino's son did not attend the 'knowledge foundry' as regularly as he should. Taglerino explained that the boy was suffering from an attack of mumps and the case was dismissed.

Alan Ramsay’s poetry is still read and appreciated in Scotland but is not well known elsewhere. But whatever his enduring fame as a poet, Ramsay made a social contribution that many of us still continue to enjoy today.
In 1718, Ramsay gave up his successful business as a wigmaker and opened a bookstore in Edinburgh. Books were expensive luxuries in those days, and few people could afford extensive libraries. To make books affordable to more people, Ramsay hit upon the idea of renting them. For a modest subscription fee, patrons of Ramsay’s store could borrow books, read them, then return them without having to buy them. His innovation was soon copied throughout Britain.
In 1731, Benjamin Franklin and other members of the Junto Club in Philadelphia adapted Ramsay’s model. They pooled their money and bought enough books to create a respectable library, with all the members being allowed use of the books. But they also allowed non-members to borrow the books, provided they left a deposit equal to the value of the book, which was returned to them when they returned the book. That was the first lending library in America.
Alan Ramsay, creator of the first lending library, died on January 7, 1758.
The portrait is by William Aikman (1722).

George A. Romero writes and directs Monkey Shines, an adaptation of Michael Stewart’s 1983 British novel of the same title. Despite the monkey with the clapping cymbals on the poster, this movie has nothing to do with Stephin King. An excellent cast (Jason Beghe, John Pankow, Kate McNeil, Joyce Van Patten, Christine Forrest, Stephen Root, Janine Turner, and Stanley Tucci) and detailed storytelling that crosses all the t’s and almost dots all the i’s, might just make this work. And beware if you have a phobia regarding monkeys with sharp objects! You’ve been warned.
At the time of this writing, Monkey Shines is available to stream from Tubi, Pluto TV, and multiple PPV sources. 
Every two weeks, Gruesome Magazine’s Decades of Horror 1980s podcast will cover another horror film from the 1980s. The next episode’s film, chosen by Chad, will be The Incubus (1981) from the novel by Ray Russell [Mr. Sardonicaus (1961) and X: The Man with the X-Ray Eyes (1963)] and starring John Cassavetes.

Buffalo Bills 선수 Damar Hamlin은 신시내티 대학 메디컬 센터에서 퇴원하여 Buffalo 병원으로 이송되��다고 월요일 전화 ���의에서 의사들이 밝혔습니다. Hamlin은 경기 중 심정지가 발생한 후 회복된 지 일주일 만에 Buffalo General Medical Center로 이송되어 회복을 계속할 것이라고 트윗했습니다. "그는 잘 지내고 있으며 이것은 회복의 다음 단계의 시작입니다."라고 Dr. William A. Knight IV가 말했습니다. Timothy Pritts 박사는 "우리는 계속해서 그의 회복에 대해 기뻐하고 있습니다."라고 덧붙였습니다. 의사들은 월요일 아침에 Hamlin을 위독에서 양호 또는 양호한 상태로 업그레이드할 수 있었고, 이로써 의사들은 그가 신시내티에서 버팔로로 집으로 날아갈 수 있도록 허가했습니다.
의사들은 Hamlin이 도움을 받아 중환자실을 돌아다니고 규칙적인 식단을 참는 것을 포함하여 많은 "핵심 이정표"를 만났다고 말했습니다. 그는 금요일 이른 시간에 호흡관을 제거했고 그날 늦게 걷기를 도울 수 있었습니다. 의사들은 Hamlin이 정상적으로 걷고 있지만 여전히 약하다고 말했습니다. 그의 힘을 되찾는 것도 그의 회복 과정의 한 단계입니다. Hamlin의 뇌와 신경학적 기능은 정상입니다. 일요일 Bills 경기에서 Nyheim Hines가 터치다운을 위해 오프닝 킥오프를 반환했을 때 Hamlin은 "위아래로 뛰고 의자에서 일어나 그 과정에서 ICU의 모든 알람이 꺼진 것 같습니다." Pritts 말했다. "그는 괜찮았습니다. 매우 흥미진진한 연극에 매우 적절한 행동이었습니다." 의사들은 Hamlin이 심장마비의 원인을 파악하기 법쩐 4회 4화 E04 다시 무료 보기 누누 위해 계속해서 검사를 받을 것이며 그가 축구를 다시 할 수 있는지 여부를 결정하기에는 너무 이르다고 말했습니다. Knight는 "그의 축구 미래를 논의하는 것뿐만 아니라 완전히 시기상조입니다."라고 말했습니다. "그는 회복과 함께 갈 길이 조금 있습니다."
Hamlin은 토요일부터 소셜 미디어에서 자신이 받은 전국적인 지원에 대한 감사를 전했으며 일요일 Bills의 경기에서 Buffalo가 New England Patriots를 상대로 승리를 거둔 여러 선수를 외쳤습니다. 햄린은 또한 빌스 경기를 보기 전 부모와 함께 병원 침대에 누워 3번 모자와 "Love for Damar" 셔츠를 입은 자신의 사진을 일요일에 공유했습니다. 그는 경기를 지켜보게 되어 기뻤지만, 경기를 위해 경기장에 있는 팀원들과 합류할 수 있기를 바랐습니다. Hamlin은 트위터 게시물에서 "GameDay.. 형제들과 함께 터널을 빠져나가는 것보다 더 원하는 것은 없습니다."라고 말했습니다. "하나님은 오늘 나를 다른 방식으로 사용하십니다. 오늘 누군가에게 사랑한다고 말하세요!" Chasing M's Foundation Community Toy Drive를 위한 기부금을 모으기 위한 Hamlin의 GoFundMe 페이지는 월요일 오후 현재 860만 달러 이상의 기부금을 받았습니다.
파괴적인 산사태로 23명이 사망하고 캘리포니아 몬테시토 해안에서 100채 이상의 집이 파괴된 지 정확히 5년 만에 산타바바라 카운티 커뮤니티와 그 주변 협곡의 약 10,000명의 주민들은 계속해서 주를 강타하는 폭우 속에서 월요일 대피하라는 명령을 받았습니다. 기상청은 12시간 동안 최대 8인치의 비가 내렸고 더 많은 비가 드라마 법쩐 4회 4화 E04 토렌트 예상된다고 말했습니다. 늦은 오후, 서비스의 로스앤젤레스 사무소는 산타바바라와 벤추라 카운티의 "위험한 생명을 위협하는 돌발 홍수"에 대한 경고를 트윗했습니다. Montecito 주변에서 대피 명령을 받고 있는 협곡 커뮤니티는 최근 몇 년 동안 산불로 불타버린 언덕 아래에 있습니다. Santa Barbara 시에서도 대피가 있었습니다. Oprah Winfrey, Ellen DeGeneres, 전 스포츠 스타 Troy Aikman, Jimmy Connors와 같은 연예계 인사들은 현재 해리 왕자와 메건 마클의 고향이기도 한 몬테시토에서 발생한 2018년 재난의 영향을 받은 유명 인사들 중 하나였습니다.
