Happy birthday Lena Martell, born May 15th 1940 in Possilpark, Glasgow.

Born Helena Thomson, she began singing at the age of 11 with her eldest brother’s band. After his untimely death, Martell decided to pursue a career in music as a tribute.

Her rising popularity among the easy listening elite allowed for the release of Lena’s Music Album in 1979. The record spawned a number one hit, One Day at a Time, written by Kris Kristofferson and Marijohn Wilkin, it helped launch Lena’s career. Producer and bandleader George Elrick and Martell continued to release records throughout the 1980s, she recorded more than 30 albums, some of which went silver, gold and platinum, including By Request, Beautiful Sunday , Love Songs, and Feelings, before her retirement in the early ‘90s, for a decade Lena also had her own Saturday night BBC TV show with over 12 million viewers. Lena worked with Liza Minnelli and understudied for Barbra Streisand in Funny Girl on Broadway.

She has been through a lot in the years since her hey day, She almost lost her voice with cancerous nodes, has had a double mastectomy, had two nervous breakdowns and the death of her mum after caring for her through the ravages of Alzheimer’s, she has also had surgery to replace a valve in her heart, and in March 2008 underwent a triple heart bypass operation- Lena is really one of life’s survivors.

In 2004, her comeback CD My Homeland outsold Kylie Minogue and Britney Spears in Scottish record shops and went gold.

In 2012 she celebrated 50 years in show business with a tour that kicked off in Glasgow. Sean Connery quoted at the Edinburgh Festival in 2004; “The best singer not to record a Bond soundtrack was Lena Martell”

I’ve chosen a great tune from Lena's album My Homeland.

I’ve seen the snow that falls across Alaska I’ve watched the sun go down on Galway Bay The Pyramids and all the “Seven Wonders” I’ve danced the night away in Monterrey But my Homeland, your beauty shines forever It burns like some eternal flame So hard to put in words how much I love you I’m so proud at the mention of your name

Scotland the lion roars inside of me My Country, my Home, my only one The City of Glasgow I was Born Scotland I love you and I’m proud to be your son

The world is full of magic and of wonder The sights I’ve seen just take my breath away But when I return home to Caledonia My heart is here, and here I’ll always stay

Scotland the lion roars inside of me My Country, my Home, my only one The City of Glasgow I Was Born Scotland I love you and I’m proud to be your son

Every Scotsman and Woman hold your head up high Thank your Father’s for the land they held so dear Sing these words with pride when you think of home Sing them loud,so all the world can hear.

Scotland the lion roars inside of me My Country, my Home, my only one The City of Glasgow I was Born Scotland I love you and I’m proud to be your son

Scotland I Love You,And I’m Proud To Be Your Son.

[medieval-elephants]

And now for something completely different... The image above seems to relate to a passage not about elephants, but about camels. The manuscript above says these animals are "olfenda", or camels (in the second visible line), and the illustrator has drawn something that looks like camels. In other manuscripts of this text, however, the creatures who live in the land are described as ylpenda, elephants and illustrated in various imaginative ways. (This text is a copy of the Wonders of the East, an Old English text describing myths about Asia and Africa.) Incidentally, in all these manuscripts, the next section of text (adjacent to the image) claims to refer to a group of people (cende men), but it seems to interpolate some elements of elephant lore there, too. These people are reportedly 15 feet tall and have long noses and dark hair (as well as two faces and red knees). You can see "lange nosa" in the middle of the last line. (And yes, elephants can have dark hair.) These people get on a ship to India to give birth, echoing claims by Isidore that elephants existed primarily in India and stories about elephants travelling east to give birth in water, such as those found in ancient texts like the Physiologus (a 2nd-century collection of morality tales drawn from animal behaviors).

In Communal Creativity in the Making of the 'Beowulf' Manuscript, Simon Thomson has convincingly argued that the error in the text (olfenda) came first, and then one of the manuscript's artists followed the text and drew camels. So was it just a simple misreading by a scribe's tired eyes? Or did someone alter the text because olfenda were more believable than elephants?

I'm bringing it up here because research for my article has caused me to wonder: who had access to knowledge about elephants in the British Isles and other regions where elephants were scarce or non-existent?

Many of the surviving manuscripts, writings, and artworks that feature elephants from the pre-Norman Conquest period would have been available only to a small intellectual elite: literacy was extremely limited and books-- made from animal skins-- were extremely expensive. (If you think of the average manuscript costing the price of 500 leather jackets-- before you added any expensive pigments or gold or wrote anything on the page-- you get the idea.) At the very least, you would have had to travel in-person to specific library to have a chance to see these manuscripts, and then you'd have needed the connections and knowledge of reading and possibly other languages to understand what you were seeing. Even the elephant riddle written by Bishop Aldhelm would have had a limited audience: Bishop Aldhelm's Latin was notoriously difficult and learned. (There were stories about elephants that widely circulated in the sermons of Abbot Ælfric of Eynsham, but that is a story for another day...)

So were the scribes who wrote and illustrated the Beowulf manuscript outside the highest intellectual elite? Or did they just not have access to elephant information? Of course, people with access to the same information, even working in the same place, could draw the same animal in slightly different ways. Thomson argues that the Beowulf manuscript had more than one artist: you can see this difference in the drawings of earless, slightly dinosaur-looking camels fighting ants just a few pages earlier (f. 101v).

Materials: Parchment, ink, pigments Origin: England (but beyond that, highly debated) Date: c. 975-1030 (again, highly debated) Now British Library, Cotton MS Vitellius, f. 103v

Hiccups’ Flock

original meme by Blaze-On-Fire Tarzan recasted with "How to Train your Dragon" characters. Partly inspired by the fanfiction "NIGHTFALL" on AO3. Hiccup (Race to the Edge) as Tarzan. In this version, he's called Hiccough, which is an old-fashioned way of saying hiccup.   Astrid (Race to the Edge) as Jane. She starts off, hunting for dragons, and ends up protecting dragons. Alvin the Treacherous (Riders of Berk) as Clayton Rouge Whispering Death (Riders of Berk) as Sabor. She has the dragon equivalent to rabies. The White Bewilderbeast as Kerchek. But he's much nicer than Kerchek. He thinks Hiccough is another kind of dragon.   Cloud-Jumper as Kala. He raised both Hiccough and Toothless. If he had a voice, it would be very androgynies. Toothless as Terk. Hiccoughs' blood brother; I imagine him to be voiced by Dante Basco.   Gobber the Belch (Race to the Edge) as Professor Porter.   HookFang (playing with Snoutlout) as Tantor. I love the idea of this elite, high-class dragon being voiced by wacky Wayne Knight.   Barf and Belch (playing with the twins) as Flint and Mungo. I imagine them being voiced by Kel Mitchel and Kenan Thomson I do not know why there's a white chunk alongside the meme.

Unvaccinated Sperm…the New Gold

It was only a matter of time before some group capitalized on unvaccinated sperm that’s free from Covid contamination.   Cue up:  The world’s first unvaccinated dating service in Hawaii.   Online dating in Hawaii has upped its game with participants being asked the “deal-breaking” question: Are you vaccinated?   At the height of the Covid madness and faced with discrimination and censorship, many unvaccinated people lost jobs and relationships because they chose to remain unvaccinated. And the “un-jabbed” didn’t have the option to say they were unvaccinated” to potential online dating partners. But that’s what prompted businesswomen, moms, and best friends, Shelby Thomson and Heather Pyle of Maui, Hawaii to launch “Unjected,” a dating app for the unvaccinated, on the Google and Apple stores. And soon after its launch Thomson and Pyle started receiving hate emails, then negative publicity in the media. Apple decided to remove “Unjected” from the app store, claiming it provided medical disinformation. Now that is unadulterated censorship. But it shouldn’t surprise anyone who’s been paying attention. Unvaccinated Sperm Database?   Thomson said “Unjected” is more than a dating service for the unvaccinated. It’s also a blood bank database and a fertility bank for the unvaccinated. Which makes perfect sense, if you’re having surgery to have access to blood that’s unvaccinated.   And although Unjected was faced with a Pandemic of Censorship from the Medical Tyranny Boyz, they managed to succeed.   And like everything else, it’s about making choices from coercion. And it’s giving new meaning to dating in the Roaring 2020s.       All kidding aside, this is a great victory against the Medical Tyranny that was simultaneously launched with the CoronaHoax. But we’re not out of the woods yet. Why? Apparently, it takes nearly three years for "the masses" to "wake up." And it’s no wonder the self-anointed elites consider the masses expendable. As a result, the masses waking up is worrisome to the techno-tyrant Boyz in the “Club.” Because now they have to change their game plan from deadly pandemic to extra-terrestrial alien attack…coming to a theater near you soon. Think I’m kidding? Then ask yourself why are we being conditioned to F-16s shooting down random UFO’s and/or Balloons up in Alaska? It’s called “preparing the Sheeple for WW3”. And you can read all about it in February’s edition of “…In Plain English”  (HERE). Share this with a friend…especially if they believe in extra-terrestrials and/or have unvaccinated sperm. They’ll thank YOU later. Remember:  We’re Not Just About Finance But we use finance to give you hope.   ********************** Invest with confidence.

Moto-x Hill....

Rooty, muddy, sandy, rocky loose and torn to bits by moto-x riders - this tiny section of the magnificent GR36 has been my nemesis for the 12 years I have lived here, until today!

A combination of ‘good’ conditions,  27.5x3″ rubber, 34x42 gear and the superb handling characteristics of my Jones SWB Plus spaceframe and truss fork worked in my favour today.  I managed this terrible 1 km of trail without resorting to dabbing my feet or hike-a-biking.  I pedalled all the way to the top! As unimportant as it might seem (in the grand scheme of things) I am stoked!

It also meant that I rode the 38km off road trail without once putting my feet down! - just pedalling all the way.  The way it should be! :-)
