FORTH BRIDGE CONSTRUCTION, 1962

                                                                   

                                          

View of cables being spun during the construction of the Forth Road Bridge in 1962.


Date 8/1962
Scope and Content Cables being spun during construction of Forth Road Bridge, South/North Queensferry, Edinburgh The Forth Road Bridge, a suspension bridge spanning the River Forth, was commissioned in 1947 and designed 1947-58 by architects Sir Giles Gilbert Scott & Partners, with Mott, Hay & Anderson and Freeman Fox & Partners as consulting engineers. Construction began in 1958 and the bridge was officially opened by Her Majesty the Queen on 4 September 1964. This shows bridge during the spinning of the cables from which the road surface was later suspended. A catwalk for workmen to was constructed between the two towers and the land on either side, and this can be seen directly below the cables. Large amounts of construction materials can be seen on the shore. In the background is the famous Forth Rail Bridge, completed in 1890. The total span of the bridge is nearly 1.8km with a main span of 1km. The elegant steel towers with their cross-beams are each 150m high. Its impressive position close by the famous Forth Rail Bridge makes it a popular tourist attraction and symbol of Scottish engineering innovation. Over 60,000 vehicles use the bridge each day. This structure has been selected as one of Scotland's key 20th-century Modern architectural monuments. Source: RCAHMS contribution to SCRAN.

EDINBURGH PLASTERWORKS---AN HONEST TRADE AND A FAIR DEAL

                                                                                             

                                                              EDINBURGH PLASTERWORKS


Edinburgh Plasterworks have just replaced my (less elaborate) bathroom ceiling and plastered and painted it for under £210. This was after a couple of other local outfits sent me estimates in the region of £1000. It is good to find a local company which is not out to con elderly and vulnerable people

                                                       WILDTRUTH---Healing from Childhood Trauma

My name is Daniel Mackler and I am a filmmaker, writer, and musician based in New York City.  I also worked for ten years as a psychotherapist in New York, though I ended my therapy practice in 2010.  My writings focus on the causes, consequences, and radical significance of childhood trauma.  I see childhood trauma as ranging from the extreme, which is common, to the mild, which is so much MORE common that few even notice it at all, much less call it by its proper name.  I view the norm in our culture as being highly traumatized and I view the average, and even above-average, childhood as being extremely traumatic – and the average parent as lacking both awareness of this and deep empathy for the child.

I see our world growing more pathological, confused, polluted, overpopulated, and disturbed by the day – and I feel that to stand by and say nothing while we destroy our planet is irresponsible and even criminal.  Yet I write with great hope – both for individual healing and for the collective healing of our world.  I seek to offer a new perspective – on relationships, on manifesting the best of ourselves, on the potential value of celibacy, on parenting, on the pathology of the family system, and on the future of our species.
