Archibald Alexander, Presbyterian minister, considers timely giving of charity (Eccl 2:4). While a wise farmer might wait for best moment, the harvest may die in field. Your recipient may die before you satisfy every single scruple.

Today, is society entirely worried aout satisfying evey possible scruple, to the point of shutting down entire agencies for even the possibility of fraud?

How can you engage in a wise regarding of the clouds?

ARCHIBALD ALEXANDER (1772 - 1851) A Day at a Time "Just as there is a regarding of the clouds before reaping which is simply wise. But, to wait till every scruple is satisfied, till every risk has been eliminated and there is not a cloud in the sky, is to wait for a state of matters that may be long enough in coming. Meantime the needy person may die; or the corn blacken in the fields."

10 min painting - I'm experimenting with brush pen and watercolor ink on old book pages.

The paper is completely different from what I used to. Wet-on-wet is impossible. Ink doesn't spread but too much water causes feathering and immediate bleeding 🫣 . Only one layer. No pentimento. Dry-on-dry for shading. Anyway it's fun and old broken books are easy to find!

📖 Book Page with a Poem Written on It, 19th Century [𝗖𝗹𝗶𝗰𝗸 𝗜𝗺𝗮𝗴𝗲 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗥𝗲𝗮𝗱 𝗙𝘂𝗹𝗹 𝗶𝗻 𝗔𝗹𝘁 𝗧𝗲𝘅𝘁] #history #poem #poetry #oldbook "I am Job, afflicted, seeking a remedy for my pain, I am a lover, sick, and I want a beloved for the soul.."

"I am Job, afflicted, seeking a remedy for my pain,
I am a lover, sick, and I want a beloved for the soul.

I am Jacob, I cry, lamenting for Joseph,
My Joseph is in prison, seeking the grace of the Merciful.

I have reached the Mountain of Moses to behold the Friend’s beauty,
My mind wandered suddenly, seeking the secret of the Glorious.

I have arrived at a place that is not my homeland,
In darkness with Khidr, seeking the water of life.

I have loaded my book of deeds, resolved to embark on the path.
I seek the command and order from God to reach my ultimate destination.

I am Yunus Emre, no one knows your state,
I seek a man of wisdom to explain my condition."

In my researching for coating tubes I have been collecting a bunch of literature around the matter. This Russian book, the "Biblioteka Svetotekhnika" printed in 1990, (originally 1977) had an interesting method around checking the thickness of the phosphor coating on the inside of the tube.

As seen in figure 9 here, it involves a light source in a box that your test tube goes into and a photocell sits at the top for a resistance reading of the light going through the phosphor coating of tube- a quick way to measure thickness.

They are using an incandescent bulb on isolation transformer and variac along with a Selenium photocell. I will be using a neon filled tube that I might dim and a CDS cell adhered to the top hole in my PETG box.

Thanks 3D printer.... I guess I could have made this in cardboard... but the printer makes it too easy.
