"The Star Spangled Banner" Words by Francis Scott Key Music by John Stafford Smith "The Star Spangled Banner" is the national more...anthem of the United States of America. The lyrics are from a poem entitled, "Defense of Fort McHenry", written in 1814 by Francis Scott Key, after he witnessed the September 13th attack by the British Royal Navy on Fort McHenry in Baltimore, Maryland. This War of 1812 bombardment is now known as the Battle of Baltimore (September 12-14, 1814). Throughout the night of the 13th, the bombing was heavy. At dawn on September 14th, Francis Scott Key saw that the huge American flag, which is now called "The Star Spangled Banner", was still waving at the fort. It inspired him to write the now famous poem. The flag currently hangs at the Smithsonian's National Museum of American History. On March 3rd, 1931, by congressional resolution, The "Star Spangled Banner" became the national anthem of the USA. "The Star Spangled Banner" lyrics: Oh, say can you see by the dawn's early light What so proudly we hailed at the twilight's last gleaming? Whose broad stripes and bright stars thru the perilous fight, O'er the ramparts we watched were so gallantly streaming? And the rocket's red glare, the bombs bursting in air, Gave proof through the night that our flag was still there. Oh, say does that star-spangled banner yet wave O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave?
On the shore, dimly seen through the mists of the deep, Where the foe's haughty host in dread silence reposes, What is that which the breeze, o'er the towering steep, As it fitfully blows, half conceals, half discloses? Now it catches the gleam of the morning's first beam, In full glory reflected now shines in the stream: 'Tis the star-spangled banner! Oh long may it wave O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave!
And where is that band who so vauntingly swore That the havoc of war and the battle's confusion, A home and a country should leave us no more! Their blood has washed out their foul footsteps' pollution. No refuge could save the hireling and slave From the terror of flight, or the gloom of the grave: And the star-spangled banner in triumph doth wave O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave!
Oh! thus be it ever, when freemen shall stand Between their loved home and the war's desolation! Blest with victory and peace, may the heav'n rescued land Praise the Power that hath made and preserved us a nation. Then conquer we must, when our cause it is just, And this be our motto: "In God is our trust." And the star-spangled banner in triumph shall wave O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave!

Dundurn Castle was built by Sir Allan Napier MacNab, and completed in 1835 at a cost of $175,000.00. Seventy-two rooms made up its more...18,000-square-footage (1,700 square metres) and 42 of them are now open to the public after being restored to what they would have been in 1855. Sir John A. MacDonald, first Prime Minister of Canada, and England’s King George VII were among those entertained there.
Some interesting facts from the tour: -- Dundurn Castle was the first home in the province to have gas lighting and running water. The water was pumped through the house by a young boy who earned $2.00 per month for his service. -- The “Scullery Maid” was a young girl of 9 or 10. She washed the dishes from the entire household’s seven meals each day. Her wage -- $1.30 per month. -- Refined sugar was delivered in a solid, paper-wrapped “cone”. It was shaved or chipped off when needed. The cost of a cone of sugar - $75.00. The cost of a new home - $100.00. -- Sir Allan MacNab was often accused of treating his servants too well. :)
The Victorian Kitchen Garden was a project undertaken by the City of Hamilton as part of the restoration. This formal garden is walled in Scottish fashion, and has a series of walkways and beds full of fruit, flowers, herbs and vegetables that would have been grown during Sir Allan NacNab’s lifetime at Dundurn. The garden is maintained the “old fashioned way” – by hand, and all natural. less Tags: dundurn castle hamilton ontario canada historic castle garden restoration flower tree house bird costume 4lanestudios mylady Category: Travel & Places Views: 109 Comments: 23 Added: Jul 24, 09 By: MyLady  | |  |  | | historic dockyard chatham 03:06a trip around the dockyard Tags: boats vehicles Category: Auto & Vehicles Views: 96 Comments: 8 Added: Jun 16, 07 By: wendywoo  | |  |  | | Alien abductions explained UFOs amp the Bible in history amp in prophecyPT15) 14:59(Click link below for Pt.2)This groundbreaking documentary brings together UFO researchers and Bible scholars.

These photographs more...were captured in recent weeks by local lensman Andreas Yiasimi on the beach to the east of Cromer pier. Sand stripping currents and a low tide sometimes reveal what remains of one half of the Fernebo, which was lost off Cromer in 1917. The other half of the Swedish ship sank separately after the boat was blown in two by a mine. The January day all those years ago was the scene of Cromer lifeboat coxswain Henry Blogg's first of three RNLI gold medals. A lengthy account of the rescue is available in at least two books, but in short Blogg and his men saved the lives of nearly 30 men that day. Around the middle of the day 16 were plucked to safety from the Greek ship Pyrin in an extremely challenging rescue. But the real story of the day was yet to be revealed. Despite their exhaustion from the earlier rescue, Blogg and his crew twice tried unsuccessfully to launch and get to the Fernebo. On the third attempt they made it through the crashing seas and rescued 11 more men. Six men had already got themselves near to shore on a small boat which capsized, but they made it to safety thanks to the efforts of some of the many hundreds of people gathered to watch what was one of the most dramatic days Cromer had even witnessed. Cyril Jolly, in his book Henry Blogg of Cromer, The Greatest of the Lifeboatmen, noted how one Cromer man recalled the Fernebo rescue 40 years on, having seen it all happen at the age of nine. He too had yelled himself hoarse acclaiming the lifeboat-men and there and then had placed Henry Blogg alongside Horatio Nelson and Robert Falcon Scott as his boyhood heroes. Hardly surprising - in all it had been an on and off 14 hour battle to help both ships. While most tourists walking the beach at Cromer today would never see the Fernebo wreck, a large proportion of locals will have little or no knowledge of it either. Some will have seen the odd jagged lump of metal in the past but unable to see the full form of a keel. One of those who knows the wreck better than most is Frank Muirhead, the archivist at the town's Henry Blogg Museum. I used to play in it as a little kid, said Mr Muirhead. There was a bit more of it left then of course. When there are scarring tides and you go down there at the right time, there is often quite a bit of it on show. There had been deliberate removal of parts of the ship many years ago, said Mr Muirhead, with explosive charges used to remove some sections. Mr Yiasimi said he took the photographs about a month ago during an unrelated photo shoot. It was quite something to see, he said, and I thought it would be a good idea to record it before it was covered up again.
