220809 Waratah

Image by Nico Nelson
The floral emblem of our state of New South Wales in Australia. Telopea speciosissima.

****See beneath from the Australian Capital Botanic Gardens Site:****

The generic name Telopea is derived from the Greek ‘telopos’, meaning ‘seen from afar’, and refers to the fantastic distance from which the crimson flowers are discernible. The certain name speciosissima is the superlative of the Latin adjective ‘speciosus’, meaning ‘beautiful’ or ‘handsome’. ‘Waratah’, the Aboriginal name for the species, was adopted by early settlers at Port Jackson.

Telopea is an eastern Australian genus of four species. Two are confined to New South Wales, one to Tasmania and one extends from eastern Victoria into New South Wales. Telopea belongs to the loved ones, Proteaceae, which is predominantly Australian and southern African in distribution and involves genera such as Grevillea, Banksia, Macadamia and Hakea. Protea cynaroides, King Protea, is the official floral emblem of the Republic of South Africa.

The Waratah is a stout, erect shrub which may develop to 4 metres. The dark green leathery leaves, 13-25 cm in length, are arranged alternately and have a tendency to be coarsely toothed. The flowers are grouped in rounded heads 7 to 10 cm in diameter surrounded by crimson bracts, about five to 7 cm lengthy. It flowers from September to November and nectar-looking for birds act as pollinators. Massive winged seeds are released when the brown leathery pods split along 1 side.

Telopea speciosissima distribution mapThe species is fairly widespread on the central coast and adjoining mountains of New South Wales, occurring from the Gibraltar Range, north of Sydney, to Conjola in the south. It grows mainly in the shrub understorey in open forest created on sandstone and adjoining volcanic formations, from sea level to above 1000 metres in the Blue Mountains. Soils within its variety have a tendency to be sandy and low in plant nutrients. Rainfall is moderately higher. Waratah plants resist destruction by bushfires, a all-natural element of their habitat, by regenerating from the rootstock. Flowering recommences two years right after a moderate fire.

The Waratah is a spectacular garden subject in suitable soil and climate it flowers prolifically and tends to be long-lived. Failures can normally be attributed to the effects of unsuitable soil circumstances, aspect or climate. Seeds ought to be sown in a coarse sandy medium and soon following germination the seedlings need to be transplanted into person pots of comparable soil. Fresh seeds germinate readily but the seedlings are prone to the fungal disease, ‘damping off’, which might be reduced by exposing the seedlings to full light, except for the shading necessary soon after transplanting. Propagation by cuttings is also achievable. In the garden, plants should be grown in lightly shaded to sunny positions in deep, properly drained soil. They need to be well watered till totally established but waterlogging should be avoided.

The Waratah responds well to pruning which encourages flowering the following year, and overcomes the natural tendency of the shrub to assume a straggly shape. Some pruning is accomplished by cutting flowers for decoration. It is a spectacular cut flower and lasts properly in water.

Flowers are normally crimson, but a uncommon creamy white form, Telopea ‘Wirrimbirra White’, has been cultivated successfully as a horticultural curiosity. Manipulated hybrids of T. speciosissima have been developed combining the grandeur of its flowers with the greater frost tolerance of other Telopea species. Hybrids in between T. speciosissima and the Braidwood Waratah, T. mongaensis, have smaller sized flowers but are generally far more floriferous with a compact shape and attractive foliage. 1 of these hybrids is the registered cultivar, Telopea ‘Braidwood Brilliant’, a spectacular garden plant created at the Australian National Botanic Gardens.

The Waratah occurs naturally in at least ten national parks in the geological formation, know as the Sydney Basin. Brisbane Water, Dharug and Macquarie Pass National Parks are amongst the regions where this species is conserved. Waratahs are cultivated north of Sydney and in the Dandenong Ranges, Victoria. They are grown in Israel, New Zealand and Hawaii for the cut flower trade. It was introduced to England in 1789 but can not survive English winters out of doors except in the south-west coastal regions, and it rarely flowers in glasshouses. It is also cultivated in California.

waratah belt buckleWhen the Australian flora started to influence artists and craftsmen of European origin, the Waratah was adopted as a motif. The Museum of Applied Arts and Sciences in Sydney has a substantial collection of arts and crafts featuring designs based on the Waratah. The diversity of media utilized in the collection contain suede, stained glass, bone china and earthenware, glassware, copper, bronze, and wood. In 1915, R. T. Baker, a passionate advocate of the waratah (and other nearby flora) as a motif in art, craft and business, wrote:

‘The complete plant (waratah) lends itself to such a boldness of artistic suggestions in all branches of Applied Art that it has few compeers amongst the representatives of the whole floral globe…’

A tiny later artists like Margaret Preston used the bold shape of the Waratah in her hand-coloured woodcut prints.

Numerous government authorities and community groups in New South Wales use the Waratah in their insignia, usually adopting a stylised version of the flowerhead. It was depicted on the 3 shilling stamp, a single of a set issued in 1959 illustrating Australian flora. Margaret Stones, an Australian botanical artist then attached to the staff of Kew Gardens, London, created the stamp. The Waratah was utilized once more on the 30 cent stamp as part of a State floral emblem set issued on 10 July 1968.

Bag o’ Money

Image by axoplasm
Chinese money is funny for 6 factors.

1. Newer bills (right after about 1999) all image Chairman Mao, regardless of denomination.

two. There are bills for tiny denominations (less than 1 yuan). So there are 1, two, and five jiao bills. A jiao is 1/ten of a yuan. This is like printing halfpenny bills.

three. The Chinese use cash for everything. I have never ever observed a verify, either personal or cashiers (most expats get paid in cash we get a transfer like direct deposit). And quite really handful of locations take credit cards. In fact, I can consider of only two: the Marco Polo hotel, and the Esprit retailer.

4. The biggest denomination is one hundred yuan (about ). Combine this with #2 (above) and you get a situation exactly where, for instance, when you have to spend the travel agent ten,000 yuan, that indicates going to the bank, waiting in line for two hours (yes, that’s how extended it usually takes, in portion simply because everybody insists on counting these [I AM NOT Producing THIS UP] bricks of income in suitcases), filling out 4 forms and photocopying your passport, and obtaining a literal BAG OF Funds which all but has &quot$ &quot stamped on the side. I especially enjoy paying our rent this way.

five. The Chinese appreciate counting funds. No 1 trusts that they are getting the anticipated amount of money. Even when it is the FREAKING BANK that is giving it to them. Everyone expects you to count all 200 bills by hand. This is basically protocol. Chinese folks find out to count cash by folding it at the corner and peeling via it really quickly. They find foreigners tediously counting money making use of two hands truly hilarious.

6. The one hundred yuan bill is PHYSICALLY a lot larger than the other denominations, and a lot larger than non-Chinese wallets. I had to buy a new wallet, for instance, WHICH I HATE. I like tiny skinny wallets but Chinese wallets are these gigantic pelvis busters.

Details, quoting from Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum: Steven F. Udvar-Hazy | Boeing B-29 Superfortress &quotEnola Gay&quot:

Boeing’s B-29 Superfortress was the most sophisticated propeller-driven bomber of Planet War II and the 1st bomber to property its crew in pressurized compartments. Although developed to fight in the European theater, the B-29 found its niche on the other side of the globe. In the Pacific, B-29s delivered a variety of aerial weapons: traditional bombs, incendiary bombs, mines, and two nuclear weapons.

On August six, 1945, this Martin-constructed B-29-45-MO dropped the very first atomic weapon utilised in combat on Hiroshima, Japan. 3 days later, Bockscar (on show at the U.S. Air Force Museum close to Dayton, Ohio) dropped a second atomic bomb on Nagasaki, Japan. Enola Gay flew as the advance weather reconnaissance aircraft that day. A third B-29, The Wonderful Artiste, flew as an observation aircraft on each missions.

Specifics, quoting from Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum: Steven F. Udvar-Hazy | Grumman F6F-three Hellcat:

The Grumman F6F Hellcat was initially conceived as an sophisticated version of the U.S. Navy’s then present front-line fighter, the F4F Wildcat (see NASM collection). The Wildcat’s intended replacement, the Vought F4U Corsair (see NASM collection), first flown in 1940, was showing great guarantee, but improvement was slowed by issues, such as the crash of the prototype.

The National Air and Space Museum’s F6F-3 Hellcat, BuNo. 41834, was built at Grumman’s Bethpage, New York, factory in February 1944 below contract NOA-(S)846. It was delivered to the Navy on February 7, and arrived in San Diego, California, on the 18th. It was assigned to Fighter Squadron 15 (VF-15) on USS Hornet (CV12) bound for Hawaii. On arrival, it was assigned to VF-3 exactly where it sustained harm in a wheels-up landing at NAS Barbers Point, Hawaii. Right after repair, it was assigned to VF-83 exactly where it was employed in a education part until February 21, 1945. After numerous transfers 41834 was converted to an F6F-3K target drone with the installation of sophisticated radio-control equipment. It was painted red with a pink tail that carried the number 14. Its mission was to be employed in Operation Crossroads – the atomic bomb tests at Bikini Atoll. It flew on June 24, 1946, with a pilot, on a practice flight and was launched, unmanned, soon soon after the first bomb test. Instrumentation on board and photographic plates taped to the manage stick obtained information on radioactivity. 3 much more manned flights preceded the final unmanned flight on July 25, 1946, which evaluated the initial underwater explosion. Records indicate that exposure of this aircraft to the radioactive cloud was minimal and residual radiation is negligible.

F6F-3K 41834 was transferred to NAS Norfolk and logged its final flight on March 25, 1947, with a total of 430.two flying hours. It was assigned to the National Air Museum on November three, 1948, and remained at Norfolk till October 4, 1960, when it was moved by barge to Washington and placed in storage. In 1976 this Hellcat was loaned to the USS Yorktown Museum at Charleston, South Carolina. A superficial restoration was performed at the museum, but due to the fact of the harsh atmosphere and its poor situation the Hellcat was returned to NASM on March 16, 1982. In 1983, it was sent to Grumman Aerospace exactly where a group of volunteers totally restored the aircraft. In 1985, it was shipped back to the Paul E. Garber Preservation, Restoration and Storage Facility in Suitland, Maryland, and place in storage. NASM’s F6F-3 Hellcat is scheduled to be displayed in the new Steven F. Udvar-Hazy center at Dulles International Airport in Virginia in 2004.
