Ancient Roman Cheese Presses

(1st-3rd centuries)

Without refrigeration, it would have been impossible to keep milk fresh and it was normal practice for milk to be converted into butter or cheese to enable long-term storage.

Bacteria formed as milk warmed, causing it to curdle, curds and whey were separated, curds were treated by cutting and shredding to make hard cheese.

They were then placed into perforated cheese presses which allowed whey to be drained away and curds hardened into the shape of the press.

Stranger in a Strange Land is a 1961 science fiction novel by American author Robert A. Heinlein. It tells the story of Valentine Michael Smith, a human who comes to Earth in early adulthood after being born on the planet Mars and raised by Martians, and explores his interaction with and eventual transformation of Terran culture.

The title "Stranger in a Strange Land" is a direct quotation from the King James Bible (taken from Exodus 2:22).The working title for the book was "A Martian Named Smith", which was also the name of the screenplay started by a character at the end of the novel.

Heinlein's widow Virginia arranged to have the original unedited manuscript published in 1991, three years after Heinlein's death. Critics disagree about which version is superior.

Stranger in a Strange Land won the 1962 Hugo Award for Best Novel and became the first science fiction novel to enter The New York Times Book Review's best-seller list. In 2012, the Library of Congress named it one of 88 "Books that Shaped America".

Jim Morrison’s alter ego, the “Lizard King,” became an integral part of his stage persona and public image, emerging from his fascination with Native American culture and the natural world. He first referred to himself as the “Lizard King” in his poetry, particularly in his famous line, “I am the Lizard King, I can do anything.” This persona allowed Morrison to embody a primal, mystical character, captivating fans with his wild, untamed energy on stage.

https://youtu.be/1l8Jx3koXHM

The Lizard King persona was often evident in Morrison’s performances, where he would prowl the stage, channeling a raw, almost shamanistic energy. His fascination with reptiles and nature symbolism added a mystical quality to his lyrics and public image, enhancing his appeal as a countercultural figure. Morrison’s Lizard King persona has since become one of the most enduring aspects of his legacy.

For Jim Morrison, the Lizard King was a way to channel his creativity and challenge societal norms. The persona added an enigmatic layer to his identity, making him one of rock’s most iconic and mysterious frontmen. The Lizard King remains a powerful symbol of Morrison’s allure, symbolizing his connection to the natural world and his rebellion against societal conventions.

"The Martian Chronicles" is a seminal work of science fiction by Ray Bradbury, first published in 1950. The book is structured as a series of interconnected short stories that collectively explore the colonization of Mars by humans fleeing a troubled Earth. Bradbury's narrative blends elements of fantasy and science fiction, creating a rich tapestry that examines themes of humanity, colonization, and the consequences of technological advancement.

The stories in "The Martian Chronicles" depict the interactions between Earth settlers and the native Martians, who possess their own culture and history. As the Earthmen arrive, they bring with them their hopes and dreams, but also their conflicts and destructive tendencies. The Martians, initially portrayed as a sophisticated civilization, face existential threats from the newcomers, leading to a tragic and poignant exploration of loss and change.

The book critiques the imperialistic tendencies of humanity, showcasing how the colonization of Mars mirrors historical events on Earth. The settlers' disregard for Martian culture raises questions about the ethics of colonization. Many characters experience profound isolation, both physically and emotionally. The vastness of Mars serves as a backdrop for their struggles, highlighting the human condition and the search for connection. Bradbury reflects on the impermanence of human achievements and the potential for self-destruction. As Earth faces war and environmental collapse, the settlers on Mars grapple with their own survival and the legacy they wish to leave behind.

Bradbury's writing is characterized by its lyrical prose and vivid imagery, creating a dreamlike quality that invites readers to ponder the deeper meanings behind the stories. He often employs metaphor and symbolism, making "The Martian Chronicles" not just a tale of science fiction, but a profound commentary on humanity itself.

"The Martian Chronicles" has cemented Ray Bradbury's reputation as a master storyteller and a key figure in American literature. Its exploration of complex themes and its imaginative vision of Mars continue to resonate with readers, making it a timeless classic in the genre of science fiction. The book remains a powerful reflection on the human experience, urging readers to consider their place in the universe and the impact of their actions on both their own world and others.

-THE ISLAND LIFE-

Devils Tower, situated in the northeastern part of Wyoming, is a remarkable geological formation that soars about 1,267 feet above the surrounding terrain. This massive monolithic butte, comprised of igneous rock, is distinguished by its impressive vertical columns and tower-like appearance. Believed to have formed roughly 50 million years ago, Devils Tower is regarded as the eroded remnant of a volcanic intrusion, showcasing its distinctive columnar structures.

Beyond its geological importance, Devils Tower holds significant cultural relevance. Various Native American tribes have folklore that narrates the tower's origin as a result of an intense escape from gigantic bears. According to these stories, the ground rose to shield a group of young girls from the bears, leaving behind deep claw marks on the rock.

In contemporary times, the tower is honored as a sacred site, where local tribes perform rituals and offer prayers. While it is a popular destination for climbers, a voluntary climbing ban is observed in June to honor these cultural traditions. Devils Tower continues to captivate visitors, symbolizing a profound blend of natural splendor and cultural legacy, representing both geological marvels and spiritual significance.
