Tel Aviv Pub Owner Says Reopening After Deadly Terror Attack ‘Will be Our Long-Term Victory’ (INTERVIEW)
A co-owner of the Tel Aviv pub that was the target of last Friday afternoon’s shooting attack explained to The Algemeiner why he reopened the establishment Wednesday night, even as police continued their manhunt for the terrorist, who has since been located and neutralized.
Ori Mizrachi, one of five partners who opened the “Simta” (“alley”) in the White City exactly four months ago said that his fears about resuming “business as usual” were not related to physical danger. This is in spite of the fact that Nashat Milhem, the Israeli Arab who opened fire on patrons, killing two of them, wounding seven others and subsequently murdering a taxi driver, still remained at large on Wednesday. (He was discovered in Umm el-Fahm on Friday, and was killed by Israeli security forces during a gun battle.)
No, Mizrachi told The Algemeiner on Friday, a week to the date of the attack, “If there was any trepidation – and there was – it had to do with how opening our doors so soon after the tragedy would appear to the public.”
The families of 26-year-old Alon Bakal, a Simta shift manager, and 30-year-old Shimon Ruimi, who was there attending the birthday party of a friend, were still sitting shiva (the Jewish seven-day mourning period), he said. “And we weren’t sure whether our attempt at showing that we will not be defeated by terrorism would be perceived as inappropriate.”
Nevertheless, said Mizrachi, who arrived at the pub minutes after the shooting spree, “We felt it was really important to show not only that life goes on, but that it does so in an atmosphere of unity and togetherness in the face of hardship.”
This, he asserted, was one of the original concepts on which the Simta was created in the first place: “To make people feel uplifted, surrounded by others in the same enjoyment mode.”
On Wednesday evening, this spirit was apparent, Mizrachi said, “albeit with a respectful sense that everyone was there to remember Bakal and Ruimi.”
Indeed, the room of the hip, centrally located pub was lit with yahrzeit memorial candles, not tea lights in colored glass for romantic ambiance. And Israeli flags created the decor.
And there was music, said Mizrachi. But not the usual blasting kind normally heard in bars; rather a public sing-a-long, more typical of sitting around a camp fire on the dunes than on bar stools along Dizengoff Street.
Among the first to enter the premises was Tel Aviv Mayor Ron Huldai, who shared a beer with Mizrachi and his four co-owners, and made a statement for public consumption – praising residents of his city for their resilience.
Mizrachi told The Algemeiner about the pep talk he gave to his 26 employees prior to the re-opening. “I said to them, ‘Let’s compare this to a combat unit, whose mission is to make people feel good and safe, when suddenly two of our men are killed. If we keep the place closed, the enemy has won the war. If we open it, we will have lost a small battle within the greater operation, but it will be our long-term victory.’”

BOCA RATON, FL, September 30, 2021 – AE Industrial Partners, LP (“AEI”), a private equity firm specializing in Aerospace, Defense & Government Services, Space, Power Generation, and Specialty Industrial markets, announced today that it has acquired HealthWay (or the “Company”), a global leader in air purification solutions for both commercial and residential settings. HealthWay will serve as a new platform investment for AEI as the firm looks to invest in the indoor air quality solutions space. The acquisition of HealthWay represents AEI’s 14th platform investment in AE Industrial Partners Fund II, LP, which closed in 2018 with $1.36 billion in equity commitments.
HealthWay is an innovator in air purification technology solutions, developing new and improved ways to ensure the purity of indoor air while maximizing energy efficiency. The Company provides a comprehensive offering of modular, scalable, efficient, portable and in-line air cleaning solutions for any indoor environment, as well as replacement filters. HealthWay’s proprietary solutions feature its patented, state-of-the-art Disinfecting Filtration System (DFS) technology, which has been proven to capture and permanently remove airborne viruses and bacteria. The Company’s solutions are used in a wide variety of settings where air quality is critical including schools, hospitals and healthcare settings, medical and manufacturing clean rooms, hotels, cruise ships, office buildings, and military locations. HealthWay brings its air purification technology solutions to market under three brands – HealthWay, Intellipure, and Pure Wellness – with each brand going to market independently and targeting unique customers and verticals. Based in Pulaski, New York, HealthWay is led by its founders Vince Lobdell and Vinny Lobdell, both of whom will remain with the Company.

Mr. Cettina most recently was the Global COO of the Construction Management business of AECOM, and previously worked for 24 years in senior roles at Tishman Construction.
“As we learned first-hand over the last 18 months, guaranteeing the purity of indoor air is critically important to getting back to and maintaining ‘everyday’ life, and we are proud to invest in HealthWay, an innovator in the air purification industry,” said Kelly Romano, Operating Partner at AEI. “The air purification industry is at a long overdue inflection point, and we believe that building a platform featuring HealthWay’s differentiated technology with the global scale to reach all channels, sectors and customers will be a game-changer. With his 40 years of industry experience, Vince is a true leader in the space, and we’re excited to work with him and his team to capitalize on strong industry tailwinds.”
“We’re pleased to join the AE Industrial team and gain the needed resources to further invest in growth and innovation,” said Vince Lobdell. “Ensuring high levels of air quality is now considered a top priority for all organizations, whether it’s a school, office building, hospital or shopping mall. We have an incredible opportunity to leverage AE Industrial’s relationships and business acumen to increase market share and become a household name in air purification.”
“The time was right to find a partner who could help us reach the next level, and AE Industrial has the industry and operational expertise, and deep relationships needed to build a premier global air purification technology solutions platform,” said Vinny Lobdell.
“HealthWay has been ahead of the curve in developing the most cutting-edge technology, which has led to its unmatched reputation for quality solutions and proven results among the world’s best known companies,” said Charlie Santos-Buch, Partner at AEI. “We’re proud to partner with HealthWay and are eager to capitalize on actionable opportunities to grow the Company.”

Your Money Tree prefers deep but infrequent watering. Water the plant until it runs from the drainage holes. Once water drips from the bottom of the pot, stop watering and empty the saucer. To prevent root rot, make sure your plant is never standing in water.
Keep the Money Plant in lots of bright, indirect light. Make sure to keep it out of direct sun as that will cause burn marks on the leaves. Water: Keep soil very lightly moist and take care not to let it sit in water or become too soggy.
Your Money Tree is most comfortable in temperatures between 65-80 degrees. Feed once a month in the spring and summer when it is producing new leaves with a water-soluble, well-balanced plant food at half the recommended strength.

RALEIGH, N.C. (AP) — Sebastian Aho scored twice in the second period on the way to a hat trick, helping the Carolina Hurricanes rolled past the Chicago Blackhawks 5-2 on Monday night.
Dougie Hamilton and Martin Necas also scored for the Hurricanes, who entered this game leading the race for the Presidents’ Trophy awarded to the team with the league’s best regular-season record. They led nearly the entire way, going up 2-0 in the opening period and then getting Aho’s scores to blow the game open on the way to a fourth straight victory.
Aho got his first when he buried a pass from Andrei Svechnikov — who stayed on his feet to lead a terrific charge up the middle of the ice for the 2-on-1 chance at 4:42 of the second.
Aho followed that minutes later by finding himself alone in front of the crease on the power play. That gave him time to set up and perfectly redirect the puck high past Malcolm Subban off a low pass from Hamilton.
That lifted Carolina to a 4-0 lead by midway through the period, pushed Aho’s point streak to eight games and knocked Subban from the game in favor of Collin Delia.
Aho capped his night by beating Patrick Kane to a puck and scoring the empty-net putaway at 18:44 to earn the hat trick.
Ian Mitchell and Alex DeBrincat scored for Chicago, which also had a goal from Philipp Kurashev disallowed on replay review because Pius Suter impaired Alex Nedeljkovic’s ability to play his crease position.
Chicago, sitting at sixth in the eight-team Central Division, has lost five straight and seven of nine.

California has enacted strict drug crime laws. The number of years of incarceration and specific penalties you may face for a conviction of drug charges can be serious depending on the type of drug, the amount, the specific crime, and other aggravating factors.
If you are facing drug crime charges, it is imperative that you immediately hire an aggressive and skilled Fresno criminal defense attorney to protect your legal rights and help you avoid a conviction and its resulting harsh consequences.
Types of California Drug Crimes
Below are some of the most common types of drug crime charges you can face under California state law:
- Possession of a controlled substance
- Possession for sale of narcotics
- Sale / transportation of controlled substance
- Possession of drug paraphernalia
- Possession of methamphetamine
- Manufacturing of narcotics
- Under the influence of a controlled substance
Even though the Golden State has legalized marijuana, driving under the influence of marijuana (or any other type of drugs) is a serious charge.
4 Defenses to Use Against a Drug Possession Charge
You should not panic if you are facing drug possession charges. Just because you have been accused of possession of drugs does not mean there is no escape from a conviction. Drug possession is not a cut-and-dry accusation. It is often based on assumptions which a skilled Fresno criminal defense attorney can poke holes in to create doubt in the prosecutor’s case.
If you are facing drug possession charges, you may be able to use these effective defenses in court to avoid a conviction:
- Unwitting possession. If you did not know that you were in possession of the drugs, you can plead “unwitting possession”. Intent is a big part of the charges. So, if you can show the drugs were not yours, you should not be penalized for carrying them.
- Lack of possession. To convict you of drug possession charges, the prosecutor must prove you had the drugs in the first place. It’s easy for the police to assume you are the owner or possessor. You cannot be charged with the crime if you can successfully argue a lack of possession, which means that even if the drugs were in your direct vicinity, they did not belong to you.
- Operating under duress. Coercion, or operation under duress, is an effective defense against drug possession charges.
- Improper police tactics. The police often make mistakes during the process of an arrest. This, in addition to other improper tactics, can be used as a successful defense strategy. Other examples of improper tactics include:
- Forcing a confession
- Illegal surveillance
- Searching private items such as cellphones without permission or a warrant
Call an Experienced Fresno Criminal Defense Attorney
If you or someone you know has a warrant out for their arrest, it is in your best interest to immediately consult with an experienced criminal defense attorney to help you learn about your legal rights and options.

With more recent studies identifying HPV as the cause of oral cancer as well, it probably will not be long until Merck applies to the FDA to expand once again the usefulness of Gardasil to include oral cancers as well.
The CDC however recently reported a decline in the number of those eligible for the vaccine and who are choosing to take advantage of it. The rate of vaccination from 2009 to 2010 rose only 5.2 percent.
This brought the total overall vaccination rate, considered to be an individual receiving all three of the shots required to complete the series, to an abysmal 32 percent.
The CDC is concerned, and rightly so, that unless it can turn its vaccination campaign around, there will be another entire generation of women having to deal with the ravages of dysplasia and cervical cancer.
The CDC has a right to be concerned. However, until the government as well as the medical community and the vaccine manufacturers alike begin an all out effort to educate the public regarding the extensive cancer causing potential for HPV, it is unlikely that much will change.

Salado Overpass Incident Serves as Safety Reminder for all I-35 Motorists
An 18-wheeler that exceeded the height limits set by the TexasDepartment of Transportation (TxDOT) attempted to travel under the new overpass being constructed at FM 2484 in Salado, March 26. When the truck's load reached the overpass, it struck the first of several concrete beams that stretched across the highway above the truck. In a matter of seconds, the first bridge beam rammed into another beam and both crashed down to the highway below, killing an unsuspecting motorist who was traveling the opposite direction.
Several other people were injured by the massive concrete beams. In all, two pickup trucks and three 18-wheelers were involved in the rare but deadly incident.
And it all could have been avoided.
|On March 26, an 18-wheeler that exceeded the height limits set by the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) attempted to travel under the new overpass being constructed at FM 2484 in Salado. An unsuspecting motorist was killed by falling debris.|
Although the investigation continues, officials say the truck's load (it was hauling a cherry picker on its trailer) exceeded the maximum height limit by 7 inches.
"Any truck that exceeds 14 feet in height is required by Texas Department of Motor Vehicles to have a permit," says Public Information Officer Ken Roberts of TxDOT's Waco District. "When the permit is applied for, the truck driver is given a new route that detours it around any overpass that has a vertical clearance less than the permitted load. This truck was not permitted."
In addition to the permitting process, signs were erected well in advance of the low-clearance overpass.
"In this case, three different signs warning drivers of the approaching overpass were in place, the first one was two miles before the location. Truckers who were above the posted height limit had sufficient opportunities to exit," Roberts says.
The posted warning signs showed the approaching overpass height to be 13 feet, 6 inches. In reality, the actual height of the FM 2484 overpass was 14 feet, 1/2 inch. Roberts says it's another safeguard to have trucks that exceed the limit, or are near the limit, to detour.
|Construction crews clean up following the accident. Opening the roadway again to thru traffic while ensuring the safety of all motorists on I-35 are both top-priority.|
Safety is a top priority in TxDOT's planning, building and maintaining its transportation system. As part of the I-35 reconstruction project, the frontage roads will be widened and become one-way facilities and the new overpasses will have clearances that meet or exceed the federal standard of 16 feet.
"More than 100,000 vehicles travel I-35 each day, and one-third of those are trucks," says Roberts. "During this construction period and beyond, we urge all motorists — especially the trucks — to slow down, avoid distractions and observe warning signs. That way, we are far less likely to have problems."

About U.S. Right To Know
Our food system is not safe. America's epidemic of food-related diseases — obesity, type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular disease, some types of cancer, Alzheimer’s disease — is the logical result of a food system that prioritizes profits over health.
How our food is produced and regulated, what it contains, and how it impacts our health are among many questions the food industry needs to do a better job answering.
What We Are Doing About It
At U.S. Right to Know, we stand up for the right to know what's in our food, and what goes on behind the scenes in political decisions about our food.
U.S. Right to Know is a nonprofit organization that investigates the risks associated with the corporate food system, and the food industry's practices and influence on public policy. We promote the free market principle of transparency – in the marketplace and in politics – as crucial to building a better, healthier food system.

Three different types of animals exist: herbivores, omnivores, and carnivores. Herbivores are animals that eat only plants. Carnivores are animals that eat only meat. Omnivores are animals that eat both plants and meat.
What are three common types of disordered eating?
Overview. Eating disorders are serious conditions related to persistent eating behaviors that negatively impact your health, your emotions and your ability to function in important areas of life. The most common eating disorders are anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa and binge-eating disorder.
What are the 7 examples of disordered eating patterns?
- Binge eating disorder.
- Avoidant/restrictive food intake disorder (ARFID)
- Other specified feeding and eating disorder (OSFED)
What are the names of the eating disorders?
- Anorexia Nervosa.
- Bulimia Nervosa.
- Muscle Dysmorphia.
- Binge Eating Disorder (BED)
- Other Specified Feeding or Eating Disorder (OSFED)
- Compulsive Over Eating (COE)
- Prader Willi Syndrome.
What is BDD eating?
Bulimia sufferers compensate episodes of binge eating with purging or excessive exercise because of the same fear of gaining weight. Eating disorders are often characterized by an obsessive preoccupation with body image—a characteristic they share with another mental illness, namely body dysmorphic disorder.
What eating disorder is the most serious?
Anorexia has a high mortality rate due to the impact it can have on physical health. Moreover, while all eating disorders can be harmful to both mental and physical health, most professionals agree that anorexia is the worst.
What are the types of eating?
- FUEL EATING. This is the only reason we need to eat because food is fuel.
- JOY EATING. This is eating foods that don’t have nutritional value for our body (desserts, savoury snacks, and the like), but it provides pleasure.
- FOG EATING.
- STORM EATING.
What does Diabulimia mean?
Type 1 diabetes with disordered eating (T1DE) or diabulimia is an eating disorder that only affects people with type 1 diabetes. It’s when someone reduces or stops taking their insulin to lose weight.
Is rumination a disorder?
Rumination syndrome is a rare behavioral disorder in which food is brought back up from the stomach. It is either rechewed, reswallowed, or spit out. The food will be described as tasting normally and not acidic-tasting, like vomit. This means it is still undigested.
Can you unconsciously have an eating disorder?
The study of 66 consecutive outpatients evaluated at an eating disorders diagnostic clinic showed that 7.6% of the patients had unintentionally developed AN. The study was reported at the annual meeting of the Eating Disorders Research Society in Pittsburgh.
What is Ednos?
EDNOS is a diagnosis that is often received when an individual meets many, but not all, of the criteria for anorexia or bulimia. For females, all the criteria for anorexia are met except that of loss of regular periods.
How do the terms eating disorder and disordered eating compare?
Disordered eating and eating disorders share some commonalities, but it is important to recognize that they are not the same. Where an eating disorder is a clinical diagnosis, disordered eating refers to abnormal eating patterns that do not meet the criteria for an eating disorder diagnosis.
What does not eating do to your body?
If a person continues not to eat, they can have slurred speech, confusion, syncope (fainting), or seizures. Prolonged lack of nutrition can lead to severe weight loss, fatigue, depression, and stomach issues.
What is atypical anorexia nervosa?
It’s called atypical anorexia nervosa. The patient, usually a young woman, has all the symptoms of anorexia except that she’s not underweight. The atypical anorexia patient is usually someone who has historically been overweight. Obsessed with getting thinner, she has been dieting and exercising excessively.
Can you have anorexia without being underweight?
A person does not need to be underweight to have anorexia. Larger-bodied individuals can also have anorexia. However, they may be less likely to be diagnosed due to cultural stigma against fat and obesity. In addition, someone can be underweight without having anorexia.
What is proxy body dysmorphia?
BDD by proxy is a little known variant of BDD in which an aspect or aspects of another person’s appearance are the focus of preoccupation. Most commonly the other person is the sufferers partner or child. People with BDD by proxy have often had BDD or OCD themselves at some time.
What are the two types of body dysmorphia?
There are two subtypes of BDD: Muscle Dysmorphia and BDD by Proxy. Both of these subtypes appear to respond to the same basic treatment strategies as BDD (cognitive behavior therapy or CBT and medications). However, the CBT therapist in particular needs to adjust the treatment so that it has the right focus.
Do I have an eating disorder or body dysmorphia?
People with anorexia nervosa have an intense fear of gaining weight or appearing overweight even when they are normal weight or underweight. People with BDD are also preoccupied with their appearance, thinking that they look abnormal, ugly, or deformed, when in fact they look normal.
What eating disorder has the highest mortality rate?
Background. Anorexia nervosa (AN) is a common eating disorder with the highest mortality rate of all psychiatric diseases.
What are the symptoms of Diabulimia?
- Unexplained weight loss.
- An A1c of 9.0 or higher.
- Persistent thirst and frequent urination.
- Frequent episodes of nausea and/or vomiting.
- Multiple diabetes-related ketoacidosis (DKA) episodes or near-DKA episodes without any explainable causes.
- Fatigue or lethargy.
When treating a person with an eating disorder The first priority is?
The first priority in treating an eating disorder is to evaluate if the individual is healthy enough to receive outpatient therapy or if he/she needs to be hospitalized as an inpatient until weight can be stabilized. Once stable, an individual can seek outpatient therapy to assist in the treatment of the disorder.
Why do I eat when watching TV?
Studies show that we tend to eat more when we’re distracted — both in the moment of distraction and later on in the day. “I think eating while watching TV also prolongs the time period that we’re eating,” Dr. Albers adds. “If your show is an hour long, you might continue to eat throughout that time period.”
Why is eating so fun?
“We are hardwired to enjoy experiences like eating because it’s essential to our survival as a species,” she explains. We’re also programmed to seek calorie-dense foods when we’re hungry, according to Woolbright.
What causes Cibophobia?
With experiential-specific phobias, someone fears something because of a traumatic experience. Someone with cibophobia might have been forced to eat a certain food or they became ill after eating the food that they now fear. They may have also been conditioned to dislike a particular food.
What is orthorexia nervosa?
Orthorexia nervosa is perhaps best summarized as an obsession with healthy eating with associated restrictive behaviors. However, the attempt to attain optimum health through attention to diet may lead to malnourishment, loss of relationships, and poor quality of life.

Scottish politics from a female, LibDem perspective
First published in Scotsman on 12/09/2012
I DON’T agree with Nicola Sturgeon on independence, but her new role could inspire a generation of women, writes Christine Jardine
It’s almost my guilty secret. A few of my political allies may have been surprised to learn that I was pleased about Nicola Sturgeon’s move in the Scottish cabinet reshuffle.
Perhaps it’s because, as someone who stands on the opposite side of the independence debate, they thought I would see her only as a political foe.
But while I will naturally be curious to monitor her impression on the pro-independence campaign, there is another and, for me, equally important long term issue that her promotion can address.
Since the inception of the Scottish parliament, the profile of its women – with the possibly unique exception of Margo MacDonald – has failed to have the kind of agenda-changing impact many of us had hoped.
That’s not to blame the women themselves. Part of the problem has been that in recent years many of our most high-profile female MSPs – Annabel Goldie, Wendy Alexander and now Johann Lamont and Ruth Davidson – have been working in opposition.
Not just in opposition to the Scottish Government of the day, but to the prevailing attitude amongst many of the political chattering classes.
Which ambitious young woman who witnessed the near vilification in parts of the media of someone as intellectually gifted as Alexander, the casual jibes thrown at Lamont, and the offhand treatment of Davidson by some, would crave a career in Scottish politics?
All of those women are talented. All of them superb role models for our daughters.
But despite its early promise, Holyrood has, until the very recent success of Lamont and Davidson, failed to create a sound platform for attracting new talent.
Ironically Westminster, which is often criticised for its misogynist tendencies, is currently a healthy stage for Scots women. Both Jo Swinson for the Liberal Democrats and Margaret Curran for Labour have followed in the footsteps of those like former Scotland Office Minister Anne McGuire and carved out leading roles amongst the current crop of MPs.
While Curran leads her Scots party at Westminster, Jo Swinson is a minister in the Department of Business Innovation and Skills and has spent two years working closely with both the Deputy Prime Minister Nick Clegg and Vince Cable.
I have seen first hand how a new generation of Liberal-minded young women look up to Swinson.
Her reputation for campaigning on equality issues and offering both encouragement and support to women of all ages in the party has won her widespread respect.
So where does Nicola Sturgeon’s appointment fit in?
Understandably, the news agenda seemed largely concerned with what her impact might be on the independence debate. That is important. But Holyrood’s political correspondents – almost to a man (and I do mean to a man) – seemed less concerned with her impact on either Scotland’s economic future or as a woman leading the debate.
I think that’s short-sighted. For the first time, Alex Salmond has trusted one of his government’s most influential economic roles to a woman, and the SNP has someone influencing our infrastructure who should instinctively take a much more female, and family-friendly, approach to change.
More than that, Salmond has given Sturgeon the opportunity to influence the next generation of Scottish women.
It’s just possible the First Minister was prompted by the emergence not just of the women leading the two next biggest parties at Holyrood, but of Scotland’s women at Westminster. Whatever the reason, Sturgeon should seize this opportunity to strengthen her position as a role model.
It’s a position an SNP woman has not really taken responsibility for since Margo MacDonald left the party.
As a young reporter at Radio Clyde, I used to love Sunday morning shifts when Margo came in to host her political programme. I rarely – if ever – agreed with her.
But that didn’t matter. She would spend what seemed like hours just talking to me about issues. Growing up in Glasgow, obsessed with all things political, Margo’s presence and visibility helped to convince me that women could, and should, fight for a more significant voice in the democratic process.
At the risk of sounding clichéd, we’ve come a long way since then. But we haven’t come far enough.
I want to see more strong women at the top table. So while I don’t see eye-to-eye with the Deputy First Minister when it comes to independence, I do welcome a move that gives her more input to the discussion.
Nicola Sturgeon has already proven that she has political ability. Only the most churlish of opponents would deny that she handled the health brief well, coming into her own during the swine flu outbreak in 2009.
Her reward is undoubtedly a poisoned chalice. But it also gives her that much wider opportunity and responsibility I mentioned.
Over the next two years how Nicola Sturgeon conducts her own, and her party’s, approach to the debate on our future will leave an indelible impression not just on Scottish politics but all parts of Scottish life.
A generation of teenage girls, many voting for the first time, will look to her and the others I have mentioned for evidence of whether women are indeed breaking through politics’ glass ceiling.
So I’ll make no secret of it, and I certainly don’t feel guilty. I wish Nicola Sturgeon every success in encouraging all our daughters to aim high.

The history of antique lamps is a fascinating journey through time, reflecting the evolution of human ingenuity and craftsmanship. From the ancient oil lamps of clay and bronze to the ornate Victorian gas lamps, the materials used to make these lighting fixtures have transformed significantly.
In early civilizations, simple pottery and metal lamps were used as functional items, often adorned with symbols of cultural significance. As societies progressed, more elaborate materials such as brass, bronze, and glass emerged, reflecting the artistic movements of their respective eras.
For instance, the opulent Art Nouveau period saw the rise of Tiffany lamps, with their intricate stained glass designs. Simultaneously, the Industrial Revolution introduced wrought iron and other durable metals into mainstream lamp production.
By exploring these materials and their historical context, we gain valuable insights into the cultural fabric that shaped the creation of antique lamps.
Materials Used to Make Antique Lamps
Antique lamps were crafted using a range of materials, some of which are still in use today. Here are the most commonly used materials:
Metal is the most popular material used to make antique lamps. Metal lamps are valued for their durability, versatility, and intricate designs. The primary metals used for antique lamps include copper, bronze, and brass.
Copper lamps are highly valued for their patina, which is the greenish-blue color that develops over time. Copper can also be polished to achieve a shiny finish. Bronze and brass lamps are valued for their ornate designs, durability, and resistance to corrosion. They can be polished to achieve a high shine, but a natural patina can develop over time, which is often desirable for collectors.
Glass is another popular material for antique lampshades or bases. Artisans can manipulate glass into a variety of shapes, transparency levels, and colors. Stained and leaded glass lamps are highly desirable for collectors due to their intricate designs. Cut glass lamps are also popular due to the detailed patterns that can be etched into the surface.
However, glass can be fragile and prone to breaking. Antique lamps with glass components require extra care when cleaning and handling.
Porcelain is a type of ceramic, often used for lamp bases. Porcelain lamps have a delicate and refined look and are often decorated with colorful painted designs. Porcelain lamps are highly valued for their artistic quality and intricate designs.
However, porcelain is fragile and can be easily damaged when dropped or mishandled. Scratches or chips can greatly reduce the value of a porcelain lamp.
Crystal lamps are highly valued for their beauty and brilliance. Many crystal lamps are made by renowned crystal manufacturers and are highly sought after by collectors. Waterford Crystal and Baccarat are two of the most famous crystal manufacturers of antique lamps.
Crystal lamps can have intricate patterns and facets within the glass that catch and reflect light. However, crystal can be fragile and delicate, requiring special handling and care to avoid breaking or damage.
Bronze and Brass
Bronze and brass lamps are highly valued for their ornate designs and durability. They often include elaborate detailing, embossed designs, and raised features. Both metals can be polished to a high shine but may also develop a natural patina over time.
Bronze and brass lamps are less prone to corrosion and rust, adding to their durability and value. Examples of bronze and brass lamps include Art Nouveau lamps and Tiffany-style lamps.
Marble is a luxurious material used for antique lamp bases. It is prized for its durability, attractive natural patterns, and smooth surface. Marble lamps come in a variety of colors and patterns, making each lamp unique.
However, marble is heavy and fragile, and can crack or chip if dropped or mishandled. Additionally, because of its weight and cost, marble lamps can be rare and costly.
Wooden lamps have a classic, natural look and are often used for lamp bases. They come in a variety of finishes, such as oak and mahogany, and can be carved into intricate designs. Wooden lamps are valued for their natural beauty, warm colors, and elegant designs.
However, wood can chip, scratch, and be susceptible to insect damage. Wooden lamps require careful handling and care to avoid damaging the delicate finishes.
Antique Lamp Restoration
Antique lamp restoration requires careful consideration of the materials used in the lamp. Different materials require different restoration methods, and improper cleaning or restoration can greatly reduce the value of the lamp.
- For example, metal lamps can be polished using a metal cleaner and a soft cloth, while glass lamps should be cleaned with a glass cleaner and a soft cloth. Porcelain lamps should be handled with care, as they can be easily scratched or chipped if mishandled.
- For crystal lamps, it is recommended to use a mild soap solution, a soft cloth, and delicate handling.
- For bronze and brass lamps, it is important to use a non-abrasive, metal cleaner and a soft brush to remove any oxidation.
- Marble lamps should be cleaned with gentle soap and a soft cloth, avoiding any harsh chemicals that could damage the surface.
- Wooden lamps should be polished with a furniture polish and a soft cloth, taking care not to saturate the wood with too much moisture.
Restoration should always be performed by a professional, particularly for materials like glass and porcelain that require meticulous care and handling. Amateur or improper restoration can severely damage the lamp’s value and condition.
Antique lamps are valued for not only their beauty but also for the materials used to create them. Understanding the characteristics and values of different materials can help collectors and enthusiasts appreciate the craftsmanship and history of each lamp.
By taking care to properly handle and restore antique lamps, their value and beauty can be preserved for future generations to enjoy.

The martial arts weapons of Okinawa and Japan were forged in the heat of ancient battles. In this book, Sid Campbell bridges the gap between the original bloody role of these weapons and their contemporary use in sparring matches. He reveals how to harness the rhythm of a combative engagement, perform the three initial attacks, "move in the shadows" during a match, employ a number of clever deception tactics and much more. You will then learn the original tactical thinking that went into each weapon's development and how these strategies can be applied to the sporting arena today.

My house, in the middle of the street. Wood Green Road, to be precise. And it’s here in the market town of Wednesbury, part of the massive conurbation stretching northwest from Birmingham to Walsall and Wolverhampton, that Ristorante Casa Mia has made a home. It’s here, close to the intersection with the Anglo-Saxon-sounding Woden Road East that Ristorante Casa Mia dishes out its sunkissed Mediterranean and Italian cuisine in elegant, red and velvety surrounds.
Casa Mia is a very welcoming and friendly place and very clean with very warm decorative style. The meal is outstanding. Very tasty food served on big plates. I have been quite a few times now and have always been pleased with the service and food presentation. The menu has loads of choice.i always go for the fillet steak .its delicious. All the food is written in English .i thought it would be all foreign food but its quite the oppposite .Its now my favourite place to dine.
Food was great. Service was good and the barman/waiter very pleasant. Would have rated it a 6 but it was chilly. The radiators were not on. Lots of choice on the menu.
Excellent quality of food as always, however service was poor this time. Young waitress didn't seem to know which table was which. Had to eventually ask for a bread basket as they had forgotten to bring us one. Decided not to have desert, which was a good job as no one offered us a desert menu. Not up to previous standard.
For many of the residents of Wednesbury and nearby Walsall, Ristorante Casa Mia is quite literally a home away from home. Regulars like to make their way to this Mediterranean and Italian restaurant’s Wood Green Road premises to while away the hours over basketed bottles of Chianti, shared platters of antipasti, even the odd jug or two of homemade Sangria. Ristorante Casa Mia’s modus operandi is pan-Mediterranean, and that goes for pan-fried fish dishes like the cod with garlic in a cream sauce.
Other blindingly good options on Ristorante Casa Mia’s regularly changed menu (they use a whiteboard to, as it were, chalk up their specials – a platform that makes for easy erasure and revision) include the mussels soused in white wine and tomato sauce, stuffed vine leaves, homemade fish cakes with a sweet chilli sauce, and homemade pate. But that’s just for starters. The real stars of the show, those which bring diners into this Wednesbury restaurant from as far as Walsall, are the ribeye steaks dripping with melted blue cheese and port wine sauce, the venison topped with pate and Madeira wine sauce, and the fillet steak with scallops and king prawns, steeped in Metaxa brandy and a touch of Pernod. A drunken trio that makes for good gastronomy.

Long days and late evenings, when playing outside until sunset means getting home well after midnight and eating dinner at around 1:30AM. Welcome to my life during the month of June in Alaska.
With such a diversity of great subject matter, the exact stye and content of my photography varies during any given week or month. That said, it usually includes some landscapes, glaciers and a few aerial photos, given that June is the best month for flying.
To highlight what I’ve been doing on my summer vacation and show you the kinds of scenes that my own eye picks out, here are a few images I shot last week. All were made with the Fujifilm X-T3, with the exception of the two iPhone photos at the end of the post.
I hope you’ve enjoying your summer so far and having lots of fun shooting photos outside!
