    SHOW IT OR COVER IT? …which is the way to the dwelling place of light, and 1 where is the abode of darkness… – Job 38:19 FRIDAY OCTOBER One day, I went to Mass, looked at the altar, and smiled. The priest was as bald as my son’s Job 38:1, 12-21; 40:3-5 marbles. Next to him was his sacristan. He, Psalm 139:1-3, 7-8, too, was bald but you won’t notice because 9-10, 13-14ab Luke 10:13-16 he wore a toupee. I whispered to my wife, “In front of you is a vision of my future. What do you want — option A or option B? Option A is show it off in all its glorious splendor. Or option B: cover it up.” She giggled and slapped me. “Shhh! Attend Mass!” But I really was attending Mass. The Eucharist is the center of our faith — but when you think about it, it’s a celebration of the greatest defeat — Jesus hanging dead on a REFLECTION: cross. Our faith doesn’t hide our blackest spot. Are you still trying Instead, it throws a party. to hide something?

  • Robert Steele and Company: Shipbuilders of Greenock
    ROBERT STEELE AND COMPANY: SHIPBUILDERS OF GREENOCK Mark Howard There is a long tradition of shipbuilding on the west coast of Scotland. It began with the production of small fishing boats and coasters to satisfy the demand for vessels from people living in the region. The scale of production, however, was modest and might have remained so but for a number of changes taking place in the wider world. Foremost among these was the expansion of Britain's colonial empire, especially the plantations founded in the West Indies and North America.1 The efforts to establish and protect these colonies together with the trade they generated created a demand for new shipping that Scottish yards helped to satisfy. Other relevant factors were the frequent wars between 1750 and 1816 that helped keep ocean freight rates at high levels; the early stirrings of the industrial revolution; the influence of the Navigation Acts; and Britain's continuing naval dominance. The size of the United Kingdom's registered merchant fleet doubled between 1775 and 1790 following the American War of Independence, and by the conclusion of the Napoleonic wars had doubled again to 2,417,000 tons.2 Of particular importance to Scotland was the 1707 Act of Union that enabled her to share fully in Britain's economic growth, and the completion of the Clyde-Forth canal in 1790 that linked western and eastern Scotland and gave Glasgow better access to the Baltic trade. Toward the end of the eighteenth century, Scotland entered a period of rapid economic gTowth that was soon matched by a rise in trade.

  • Clipper Ships: the Appeal of Sail by Garry Victor Hill
    1 Clipper Ships: The Appeal of Sail by Garry Victor Hill Plate 1 The Ariel. By Jack Spurling (1870-1933) Public Domain, https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?curid=14917880 The painting above captures exactly the breathtaking appeal of clipper ships. The azure sky with slight traces of pure white from thin clouds and the matching white foam and white sails with a touch of pale blue contrast with the dark, but vibrant blue waves. The ship, Ariel does not seem to plough through the waves so much as conquer them through 2 sleek cuts, while her billowing sails soar like clouds. The scene gives a feeling of optimism, even exuberance: clippers often did that. They were loved by owners, passengers and crews, by those who depicted them, artists, photographers and writers, even tattooists and their customers; everybody had obvious reasons. They epitomise the age of sail, but their peak years only came to two decades, 1849 to 1869. The years of their emergence and decline came to several decades. Their essential hull design was first used in Chesapeake Bay late in the eighteenth century, but these were smaller ships, closer to schooners than the later larger great clippers of the late 1830s and after. In both their sleek hull design, their narrow cutting bow, the outlay of their sails and their size they had much in common with schooners. There were strong and obvious differences: schooners were much smaller and usually had only two masts which were not even half the height of those on clippers. Schooner sails were smaller and fewer in number, and were positioned parallel to the hull, not crossways to it, as on clippers These early clippers would take part in military operations in the American Revolution and the War of 1812, sometimes as privateers, more often as smugglers and messengers.1 In peacetime they would be involved in Chesapeake trade and transportation.

The era of the Great Tea Race had passed from sail to steam. The first tea to reach London that year would be transported via the Suez Canal, which was impossible for the Te a C li p p e r s to navigate.
