  • National Geographic's Presentation Of: The
    NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC’S PRESENTATION OF: THE SECRETS OF FREEMASONRY Research From The Library of: Dr. Robin Loxley, D.D. Copyright 2006 INTRODUCTION It is obvious that NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC got a hold of information from other resources and decided to do a cable presentation on May 22, 2006, which narrates most of my website threads in short two hour special. It was humorous to see Masons being interviewed and trying to fool the public with flattering speech. I watched the National Geographic special entitled: THE SECRETS OF FREEMASONRY and I was humored to see some of what I’ve studied as coming out of the closet. My first response was: Where was National Geographic during the 1980s with this information? Anyways, it’s nice to know that they had an excellent presentation and I was impressed with how they went about explaining the layout of Washington D.C. I was laughing hysterically when a Mason was interviewed for his opinion about the PENTGRAM being laid out in a street design but incomplete. The Mason made a statement: “There is a line missing from the Pentagram so it’s not really a Pentagram. If it was a Pentagram, then why is there a line missing?” He downplays the street layout of the Pentagram with its bottom point touching the White House. The Mason was obviously IGNORANT of one detail that I caught right away as to why there was ONE LINE MISSING from the pentagram in the street layout. If you didn’t catch it, the right side of the pentagram star (Bottom right line) is missing from the street layout, thus it would prove that the pentagram wasn’t completed.

  • Big and Beautiful: Landscape Led Development at Scale Louise Wyman
    Big and Beautiful: Landscape Led Development at Scale Louise Wyman First Let’s Define Some Terms Big The focus of this paper is on large scale development where landscape has impact and adds commercial and aesthetic value as well as natural capital and health benefits. By landscape I’m referring to anything that isn’t architecture; i.e. the spaces between buildings, public squares, streets, parks, transport routes, river corridors, agricultural land and forests. In essence the public realm, green, blue and built infrastructure which supports, nourishes and connects England’s villages, towns and cities. In health terminology, the neural pathways and reserves that feed, sustain and enliven the vital organs of our rural and urban centres of population. Beautiful The debate about “sublime” vs “beautiful” landscapes has existed throughout the history of landscape design and development. Today techniques deployed by landscape architects over centuries are being redeployed to add identity, diversity, development value, health benefits, and “beauty” to large scale development. Landscape historians trace the concept of the “English Picturesque Style” to Edmund Burke’s 1757 “A Philosophical Enquiry into the Origin of Our Ideas of the Sublime and Beautiful”. “Picturesque” arose as a term that mediated between the opposed ideals of beauty and the sublime. This led to landscape debates about the “English Picturesque” seen as gentle, smooth, undulating terrain with watercourses and artfully placed clumps of trees. In contrast to sublime landscapes which were regarded as more awe inspiring; towering rock faces, deep chasms, cascading waterfalls, dramatic intense places. Fast forward to 2019 and MHCLG’s call for a Building Better, Building Beautiful Commission illustrates how concepts of beauty, design and style remain at the centre of our national debate about planning for future communities.

INTRODUCTION Edmund Burke needs to be rescued. His legacy is held hostage by the modem conservative movement, which proclaims Burke to be its intellectual progenitor. Conservatives consider Burke the fountainhead of their political philosophy - the great thinker and eloquent eighteenth-century British statesman who provides conservatism with a distinguished heritage and a coherent body of thought. Burke has achieved iconic status; Reaganites wore his silhouette on their neckties.' Legal scholars applaud court decisions and jurisprudential philosophies as Burkean, or denounce them as not being genu- inely Burkean. But Burke's memory has been wrongfully appropriated. Ed- mund Burke was a liberal - at least by today's standards - and it is time to restore him to his proper home. This Article has three objectives. The first is to demonstrate Burke's lib- eralism.
