My gf is doing a research project on sixteenth century recipe books (building a tool to help people read/understand them) and this weekend she was telling me about an ingredient that showed up in one of them that she could not figure out what it was. I have read the soap post (which is SO COOL, btw, I am so excited to see how the wash balls turn out) and I’m wondering if you might know what it actually is.

She first saw it written as venus bolearmonack, but we found several different spellings for it when we both went down internet rabbit holes: bolearmonack, bolarmonack, bolarmonicke. We think it’s maybe some sort of dirt or clay? But it keeps bothering me that we couldn’t figure it out, and reading your post made me wonder if you would know.

OKAY SO:

From Charas's The Royal Pharmacopœea, we know that:

By Minerals I understand all Metals, Half-metals, and what belongs to Metals. All sorts of Earths, and Bole-Armoniack; all Stones, Marbles, Flints, Porphyries, Jaspers, Chrystals, Jacinths, Emraulds, Saphirs, Granats, Blood-stones, Diamonds, and all sorts of Jewels: Sulphurs, Vitriols, Allums, Sal Gem, Bay-salt, Water, Rain, Snow, Ice, Hail, Thunder-bolts, Dew, Manna of several sorts, Morter, Lime, Brick, Oyl of Naphta Amber-griece white and yellow; Jet, Sea-coal and all Bitumens. Talk, Chalk, Bismuth, Zink, and all Marcasites, the ordinary Earth, Sand, Clay; and in general whatever is drawn out of the Bowels of the Earth, or Sea; or descends from the Air, being without Life.

This is Moyse Charas telling us what a shorthand (Minerals) means -- so apparently, Bole-Armoniack (another spelling!) wasn't a shorthand for something else the way, say, "the four greater Cold seeds" are. I also included the full paragraph because that also gives a hint as to what Bole-Armoniack isn't -- or at least, they didn't think it was... which means nope, not clay or dirt.

Later we find out in the same book that it's something you gotta crush the shit outta in a mortar before you can use it, but when you do it'll reduce to an extremely fine powder the way precious stones and amber will.

Lémery's A Course of Chemistry clarifies for a recipe for, ta da, gonorrhea, that:

Litharge, which is a Lead Calcined [a heated lead], Alom, and Bole-Armenick, are so many considerable Astringents, that do no hurt in this composition.

Which is to say, bole-armenick (ANOTHER SPELLING), when powdered, can be heated up to be used in this mix and was added because it was thought to draw together or contract skin tissue. It's also interesting that Lémery bothered to define litharge (which is fairly common in recipes I've seen), but, again, not the bole-armenick.

Finally, on a hunch, I did a search for just "armenick", and hit enough paydirt that I suspect y'all can dig further using it to confirm the results-- Pettus's 1683 glossary supplement to Ercker's Fleta Minor lists the following:

ARMENICK▪ See Armoniack.

ARMONIACK, T. gives it the Latine Name, Bolus Armeni, and we Bole Armoniack, and I find these words of kin, both in their Orthography and Pronuntiation, viz. Amoniack Armenick and Armoniack. The first Pliny tell us, is a Gum which he calls Gumma Amoniaci, of a glutinous nature (like other Gums) and so may be used for Metallick Vessels. The second viz. Armenick; I find the word Sal always joyned with it, and so called Sal Armenicus, and this Salt was antiently accounted a natural Salt, but that being now unknown to us, we use the Armenicus, which is made of the Urine of Elephants or Camels (as 'tis said) boyled to a Lixivium or Salt, and called Sal Armenius or Armeniacus, and this is of great use for purifying and refining of Metals. To the third Armoniacus the word Bole is added, I suppose for distinction sake: Pliny, c. 35. mentions a Stone, which he calls Lapis Armeni, of which he counts several sorts, but the best of those he saith, are of a blew colour, and calls it verd de Azure (being of great price and esteem with Painters, but the common Armoniack he calls Synoper (and we Synople) from a City of that name, where it was plentiful, and 'tis probable this is the same which we call Bole Armoniack, being of a reddish colour, and this is oft used by our Author, and for distinction the word Gum is put to the first, Salt to the other, and Bolus to this: which I write to prevent Errors in Medicines or Metallick Experiments.

So with Pettus's definitions, triangulated with Charas's shorthand notes and Lémery's preparation instructions, we arrive at your "venus bolearmonack" probably being sinople, a "ferruginous quartz that is blood-red or brownish red sometimes with a tinge of yellow" which "occurs in small but very perfect crystals, and in masses that resemble some varieties of jasper."

All that being said, though: always try and get at least one other source to confirm a definition. My beloved Simon Barbe says that benzoin is also myrrh, and that's... that's not right, babe. So double-check, but-- here's a reasonable direction!

So, I accidentally re-read Absent That Night yesterday (which is a whole post unto itself, which I'll probably get around to tomorrow), but I thought in honour of its almost-Second-Birthday, I'd pick some choice lines to share. ^_^

This, obviously, continues under the cut, because dude, it got long. Ten excerpts of varying length, for your perusal. ^_^

1.

Latrell managed one final, almost-genuine smile before he turned away. It evaporated almost immediately, his mind racing ahead, the day stretching out in front of him, formless, pointless. He was going to have to think of something to take up his time. Something that hopefully wouldn’t frustrate him as much as most of this morning had. He’d think of something. He just had to be careful he didn’t end up at a bar. [scene break] Latrell ended up at a bar.

2.

"So here's a fun question," Latrell said, leaning back in his chair. Albie looked up at him from where she was comparing two photos on the desk beside her monitor. Her expression was wary. Latrell tapped his pen rapidly against the edge of the desk. "Why didn't [Nox] carve his signature into her?" Albie pulled a face. "Seriously?" "Yeah, seriously." Latrell sat forward again, holding her gaze. "How much is that book worth? Nearly a million? But who could put a price on a human life? Isn't that the most valuable thing in that room?"

3.

Latrell was two and a half blocks from the relative comfort of Ronan’s apartment when a car screeched to a halt at the curb in front of him and Eliza Laurie toppled out. He almost resisted the urge to groan, and then didn’t bother. Laurie’s grin amped up the wattage by about a thousand percent when she heard it. “Agent Latrell,” she called as she click-clacked up the sidewalk to him. “Spare a moment?” Her lipstick today was the colour of arterial blood. Latrell tried to keep walking, but that only allowed her to invade his personal space that much quicker.

4.

What was decidedly not normal was the huge whitewashed domes rising out of the earth directly ahead of the car. There were five of them, varying in size; the smallest maybe twenty feet across, the largest easily more than fifty. They rose out of the ground like humps, three or so feet high at their apex, their edges invisible beyond the scraggly grass and detritus that had collected around them. The bitumen upon which the car was parked extended all the way to the domes, part of the same infrastructure, and Latrell had the insane impression that they were literally stopped in a long-dead parking lot. He was still blinking. It still wasn't helping. "It's an aquarium," Nox said, inexplicably.

5. [deleted scene]

“You good, sunshine?” Nox said, stepping around Latrell to get to the kettle. Latrell really needed to nip that fucking nickname in the bud. He said, “Yeah. Just thinking. Going over what we know.” Nox arched an eyebrow, though his gaze stayed fixed on the water he poured into his mug. His voice lifted a little, carrying to the rest of the room. “You can share with the class, y’know. We don’t bite.” “I do,” Gault called. Nox rolled his eyes, but he couldn’t stop the quirk at the corner of his mouth. “Well, Mark does. But only in certain contexts.”

6.

“What about your Phone Friends?” Latrell managed to keep the wry twist to a minimum. Nox waved a hand. Broad and expansive, far less carefully controlled than usual. Said, "I am unconvinced of the malleability of the people who live in my phone." "How charmingly enigmatic." Latrell didn't bother to modulate the wryness this time. "I am. I also have a proposal." "Ominous." "Look at you, hitting all my major personality traits!" Even in profile, Latrell could see the crinkle at the corner of his mouth, the parting of his lips, the fine lines fanning from his eyes. Nox took a long swallow from his coffee, continued, "We need more people."

7.

“There’s something else I have to tell you.” Albie shot him a quick glance. “Oh?” Latrell pulled his glasses off, pinched a forefinger and thumb across his eyes. “It’s… complicated, alright? And I’ll go into more detail when we get there. Just figured I shouldn’t spring it on you right after you’ve just met our favourite felon.” “Your favourite felon, maybe,” Albie said. The teasing note didn’t quite conceal the apprehension, the disapproval apparent in the downturn of her mouth. She compensated by adding, “I’m yet to form an opinion.”

8.

He didn’t hesitate when he reached the glowing green exit sign. Pushed out the door and emerged into the night. It was cooler still out here. Brighter, too, the moon nearly full, hovering just above the tips of the buildings. The emergency exit opened onto a square of bitumen, bordered on all sides by buildings with their backs turned. Nobody wanted a view of a spit of blacktop. Alleys cut paths between them, leading to… places. Somewhere else. Anywhere else. Nox leant against Ralph’s hood, ankles crossed. He flipped the keys once around his finger as Latrell let the door fall shut behind him. “Where to, sunshine?” he said, voice low, just loud enough to carry across the distance between them.

9.

“Oh no no no, this will not do at all! This is awful! Do you people not have charters against this sort of thing? This is simply inhumane!” Latrell blinked rapidly. His glasses were askew, almost as much as his body, crumpled on the cold hard cot. His limbs screamed as he straightened them, which did nothing for his too-fast breathing or the too-hard slam of his pulse, but at least served to bring him more firmly into the present, into the real and the now. He removed his glasses, wiped savagely at his eyes, replaced them. Surveyed the room in front of him with more mental acuity than the first pass. Wondered if he was still dreaming. Cassandra Nightingale stood in the centre of the room, her back to him. She towered over whoever she was facing, but then she towered over everyone. Filled every space she entered, wall to wall and floor to ceiling, regardless of their relative size. Her dress was different to the one she’d worn at the fundraiser, though would have fit in just as well; layers upon layers of different peach materials, lace and silk and something decidedly poofy, terminating at her ankles in order to show off her terrifyingly high stiletto heels. She shook a finger in the face of whoever she was talking to. Even with her back turned, Latrell had seen the gesture enough to place it. “This is unacceptable! Can you people not see that? Is this some form of passive torture you are trying to inflict upon innocent people? Do I need to remind you that the foundation of our justice system is innocent until proven guilty?”

10.

The thick heavy ball broke free, rising up Latrell’s throat even as he tried to grab it and swallow it back down. [Redacted]’s laugh followed the strangled choked broken sob into the echoing stillness of the room. “Naw, don’t be like that.” [Their] voice was cutting, mocking, coming from every corner and every flat surface of the space. Latrell realised his eyes were still shut. Reluctantly pried them open. For what good it would do him. If [Redaced] didn’t want him to, he’d never see the final blow coming. “What do you say, Latrell? Should we explore more of this old aquarium? I’ll give you a sixty second headstart if you wanna make a run for it.” Beat. A laugh, loud, malicious. “Don’t think you’ll get very far with that amount of time, though. Not on that knee. Let’s say two minutes. What do you think?” “I think,” said a second voice from nowhere and everywhere, “That you talk too fucking much.”

Understanding Flat Roof Replacement Cost: A Comprehensive Guide

A flat roof replacement cost is a significant home improvement project that involves removing an old, worn-out flat roof and installing a new one. Flat roofs are commonly found in modern homes, commercial buildings, and garages due to their sleek and minimalist design. However, over time, flat roofs can develop leaks, cracks, and other signs of wear, which can lead to water damage and other costly problems if not addressed promptly.

The cost of replacing a flat roof depends on several factors, such as the size of the roof, the type of materials used, the complexity of the installation, and the geographical location of your property. For a comprehensive understanding of flat roof replacement cost, it's essential to consider the various elements that influence pricing, the different roofing materials available, and the benefits of timely roof replacement.

Factors That Influence the Cost of Flat Roof Replacement

Roof Size and Pitch: The larger the roof, the higher the cost. Flat roofs, despite their name, often come with varying degrees of pitch that can affect installation and labor time. The overall surface area to be covered is one of the most significant cost factors. Larger roofs require more materials and labor, increasing the overall price.

Roofing Material: The material you choose for your new flat roof plays a substantial role in the overall cost. Some common materials used for flat roofing include:

EPDM (Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer): A synthetic rubber material known for its durability and cost-effectiveness. EPDM is one of the most affordable options for flat roof replacements.

TPO (Thermoplastic Olefin): TPO roofs are energy-efficient and heat-reflective, making them a popular choice for flat roofs. They tend to be slightly more expensive than EPDM but offer better energy efficiency.

PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride): A premium flat roofing option that is known for its longevity and resistance to chemicals and UV rays. PVC tends to be one of the more expensive options for flat roofs.

Modified Bitumen: This material is applied in layers and offers excellent protection from the elements. It is moderately priced and ideal for commercial or residential buildings that need a reliable, low-maintenance roof.

Built-Up Roofing (BUR): BUR involves multiple layers of asphalt and felt, which creates a strong, durable roofing system. It tends to be more expensive due to the multiple layers involved.

Labor Costs: Labor costs can vary based on the complexity of the installation, the region you're located in, and the contractor's experience. Skilled labor, especially for specialized materials like PVC or TPO, may drive up the price. Additionally, the removal of the old roof, disposal of materials, and any necessary structural repairs may add to labor costs.

Roof Access: The difficulty of accessing your roof can also influence the price. If your flat roof is on a multi-story building, or if there are obstacles like trees or nearby structures, the labor may require additional equipment, driving up costs.

Geographic Location: Roofing costs can vary significantly depending on your location. Regions with higher costs of living or areas with challenging weather conditions (such as those in extreme heat or cold) may have higher roofing material and labor costs. It’s important to get estimates from local contractors who are familiar with your area’s building codes and environmental factors.

Benefits of Replacing a Flat Roof

Increased Durability: A new flat roof will be more resistant to leaks, weather damage, and wear-and-tear than an aging roof. Depending on the material used, a flat roof replacement cost can more with proper maintenance.

Improved Energy Efficiency: Some modern flat roofing materials, such as TPO and PVC, are designed to reflect heat, which can help keep your home cooler during hot weather. This can reduce your energy bills by lowering the need for air conditioning.

Enhanced Curb Appeal: A new, well-installed flat roof can significantly improve the aesthetic appeal of your home, boosting its market value and making it more attractive to potential buyers.

Prevent Water Damage: Flat roofs are prone to pooling water, which can lead to leaks and structural damage. By replacing your roof with a more advanced material, you can reduce the chances of water buildup and protect the interior of your home.

Conclusion

Replacing a flat roof is a substantial investment, but it can provide long-term benefits in terms of durability, energy efficiency, and overall protection. While the cost of flat roof replacement cost can vary, it’s essential to choose the right material for your needs, get multiple estimates from qualified contractors, and plan for the long-term value that a new roof can bring to your home. By understanding the factors that influence costs and making informed decisions, you can ensure that your flat roof replacement is a worthwhile investment that provides lasting value and peace of mind.

How Can Local Roofing Contractors Help You Choose the Best Roofing Membrane for Your Climate?

Choosing the right roofing membrane is critical for ensuring the longevity and efficiency of your roof. The best choice often depends on your local climate and the specific challenges your area presents. That’s where local roofing contractors step in. Their expertise and understanding of regional weather patterns make them invaluable in helping you pick a roofing membrane that stands the test of time.

Understanding Your Climate’s Needs

Different climates demand different roofing solutions. For instance:

Hot and Sunny Areas: Reflective and heat-resistant membranes, such as TPO (Thermoplastic Olefin), help keep your home cool and energy-efficient.

Rainy and Humid Regions: Waterproof membranes like EPDM (Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer) are ideal for managing moisture.

Cold and Snowy Climates: Durability and resistance to freezing conditions make PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride) a popular choice.

Local contractors are familiar with these requirements and will guide you toward options that suit your region’s weather challenges.

Custom Recommendations Based on Your Roof Type

Every roof is unique, and your contractor will assess your roof’s slope, structure, and purpose. For example, flat roofs benefit from seamless membranes like modified bitumen, while pitched roofs may require layered solutions. A professional contractor ensures that your chosen membrane pairs perfectly with your roof design.

Expert Advice on Material Longevity and Costs

Local contractors help you weigh the pros and cons of various membranes in terms of lifespan and budget. They consider factors like UV exposure, precipitation, and maintenance needs. Their experience with local suppliers also means they can secure high-quality materials at competitive prices.

Installation Expertise Matters

Choosing the right membrane is only half the battle; proper installation is key. Local contractors are skilled in techniques like underlayment installation, which adds an essential protective layer beneath the roofing membrane. This underlayment shields your home from water leaks, improves insulation, and enhances the membrane’s durability.

Compliance with Local Building Codes

Roofing regulations vary by region. Local contractors ensure your new roofing system adheres to all local codes, avoiding potential fines and ensuring safety.

Sustainable Solutions for Your Climate

Many local contractors now recommend eco-friendly roofing membranes that reduce energy consumption and align with green building practices.

In conclusion, a local roofing contractor in Prince George provide tailored advice, expert installation, and peace of mind. Their knowledge of your climate ensures that you choose the best roofing membrane, protecting your home while adding value and comfort for years to come.
