A Tribute to the Women of the Southern Confederacy, Confederate Park, Jacksonville.
A Tribute to the Women of the Southern Confederacy, Confederate Park, Jacksonville. Confederate Park, Jacksonville. This monument is dedicated to the women who remained behind and shouldered the burden of raising their families and working for the cause of independence by themselves. Keep in mind when contemplating that statement that “raising a family” and “working” and even bearing a “burden” meant carried a vastly different connotation from what those words mean today. There was no indoor running water, no electric appliances, no laundromats, no welfare benefits, no grocery stores with microwavable food, no McDonalds to stop at on their way home and no pizza delivery, there was nothing and no one to help them to survive consequently many of them did not. They worked from before dawn to after dark engaged during the whole day in the task of providing and surviving. Artist/Sculptor Allen G. Newman designed and created the monument, he named the statue in the rotunda The Woman of the Southland, and modelled the piece after Greek temples which housed their deities to imply a reverence for the Women of the Southern Confederacy. The monument was unveiled 1915 and of course given the tenor of the revisionist times we live in is under fire and will eventually be destroyed.

Confederate Reenactment, Ocklawaha, MARION, FL, BATTLE
This Reenactment commemorates the March 1865 Union raid on plantations east of Ocala, Florida on the Ocklawaha River. This skirmish was the only battle that occurred in Marion County during the War of Northern Aggression'. A raiding party of thirty (30) Union soldiers, run by Sgt. Major Henry James of the Jacksonville garrison, traveled by boat down the St. John’s River and disembarked and marched into Marion County and attacked and destroyed the Marshal’s Plantation. While the attack was going on a servant rode into Ocala, Florida and alerted the home guard. The home guard militia company came from Ocala and skirmished with the enemy. It was a running fight from the Plantation to what was then the 'Marshal's Bridge', which is where the present day Sharpes Ferry Bridge stands, on highway 314, east of Ocala. The skirmish ended at the bridge when the Federals burned it behind
them, which blocked the pursuit by the Southern home guard. The fighting then was virtually over.
Two (2) of the Southern home guard were killed in the fighting, with two (2) more of the Southern home guard dying later from wounds. The Federal raiding party had two (2) dead and four (4) wounded. The Federal raiding party then managed to attack another Plantation} on the opposite side of the river, but did not have time to destroy it. The Federal raiding party then headed to the Union garrison at St. Augustine, FL. The raiding party was pursued in route by 15 Confederate cavalry who caught up with them, nearly at the gated of the St. Augustine Union garrison. The Confederate cavalry was able to re-capture much of the property that the Union raiding property had taken off the Plantations. But there was no reported combat between the two forces at this time. and Federal raiding party made their escape into the St. Augustine Union garrison. Thus ended the raid.

Supplying the South: Blockade Runners in the Civil War
During America's great Civil War, President Lincoln ordered the blockade of all southern ports in an effort to starve the Confederacy into submission. Necessity being the mother of invention, the Confederacy countered by developing a diversified naval strategy. Drawing on the steam technology of the day, two new types of ships were built. One was the blockade-runner, a fast vessel designed to slip past and outrun the ships of the Union navy. The other was the raider, a well-armed warship whose purpose was to strike at the Union commerce on the open sea. These new naval tactics would mark a place in the evolution of naval warfare.
Scattered on the ocean's bottom, thousands of kilometers apart, lay the remains of three vessels linked by their service to a tragic cause. Each is a testament to the desperate naval war waged during the American Civil War, and the innovations of a doomed Confederate navy. In this video, the Sea Hunters dive the wrecks of Nola and Mary Celestia.

9 Ton Gate - Megalithic Miracle at Coral Castle, Florida
Follow Me on:

Website....................
We are at coral castle in Florida, and let’s take a look at the most mysterious structure in this castle – called the 9 ton gate. This 8 foot tall revolving gate has not only baffled common people but has also challenged modern day engineers. By the end of this video, I hope you will agree with me that this gate could not have been built by a single man unless he knew some kind of a secret ancient technology.
The nine ton gate no longer works, but here is a smaller 3 ton gate which still works. Edward Leedskalnin considered the 9 ton gate as a master piece and named this place after this gate, so the original name of Coral castle was Rock Gate Park. Ironically the door did not get much attention from experts before it stopped working in 1986. So the owner initially calls a local construction crew and they take a good look at this gate and tell him that they have no idea how to fix it. Now, the owner decides to call the quote on quote “educated engineers” and calls the University of Florida. They send in a team of 6 engineers and they arrive with plenty of modern equipment including a 20 ton crane. Now, keep in mind Ed did not use any modern equipment and built this door without anyone’s help.
When the engineers took the door down, they saw that Ed had not only modified simple car parts like axle shaft and ball bearings of a 1918 ford truck, but had also used a strange circular stone at the bottom. The engineers couldn't understand how this Frisbee sized rock could withstand 9 tons of weight. So, they sent it to the geology department in the University of Florida. Guess what happened? A month later, the expert geologists simply returned the rock to coral castle and told the owner “hey, We have compared this rock with almost all other types of rocks on this planet, and we have even compared it with meteorites, but we cannot determine the origin of this rock. “So, where did this rock come from? How did a man with a fourth grade education who rode nothing more than a bike, get a hold of this rock?
Anyways, the engineers put the gate back with new shaft and new bearings, but removed the rock because they were the experts and they could do better than the uneducated Ed Leedskalnin. You know what happened? It got stuck, and did not move. Believe it or not they had to shave the rock down, to make it work. This just proves that 6 experts with all their modern techniques could not duplicate what Ed had done single-handedly without modern equipment or techniques.
Now the original door which lasted from 1936 to 1986 could be moved by an 8 year old girl with one finger. After 1986, it was not that easy, but a grown man could move the door with one hand. But it only lasted until 2004 and then it ceased. At that time, 3 different teams of engineers looked at it and basically said “Leave it alone, it could crack open like an egg”. Because this rock is made of honeycomb coral, which is very brittle and it will break if you give a strong tap with a hammer. How could Ed quarry and cut this huge stone without breaking it? And how could Ed drill a hole exactly through the center of balance even though this rock is not a perfect rectangle?
Now, he claimed that he could build Coral Castle because he knew the secret behind the construction of the great pyramid. Strabo, a Greek geographer found a similar revolving door in the pyramid of Giza. He has documented that in 24 B.C while exploring the Pyramid, he stumbled on a large rectangular door made of rock. He mentions that this door leads to a long, narrow passage and when the door is shut, it is so perfect that it seems like any other rock in the Pyramid. Today, experts are still searching for this door. This raises the question if Ed really knew the secret behind the Pyramid of Giza? Is that why he was able to build a similar door in Coral castle?
Finally, there are many people who claim that Ed was simply a con man and a pseudoscientist. Here we have a pseudoscientist who could quarry, cut and put in place a 9 ton door without anyone’s help or modern technology. And we have the real scientists who come in as a team and with all their modern equipment and scientific calculations cannot duplicate what a pseudoscientist created. So you tell me, who the real scientist is and who should be labeled as pseudoscientists?

Driving on Interstate 10 through Pensacola, Florida
Pensacola (/ˌpɛnsəˈkoʊlə/) is the westernmost city in the Florida Panhandle and the county seat of Escambia County, Florida.
Pensacola is a sea port on Pensacola Bay, which is protected by the barrier island of Santa Rosa and connects to the Gulf of Mexico. A large United States Naval Air Station, the first in the United States, is located southwest of Pensacola near Warrington; it is the base of the Blue Angels flight demonstration team and the National Naval Aviation Museum. The main campus of the University of West Florida is situated north of the city center.
The area was originally inhabited by Muskogean peoples. The Pensacola people lived there at the time of European contact, and Creek people frequently visited and traded from present-day southern Alabama. Spanish explorer Tristán de Luna founded a short-lived settlement in 1559.[10] In 1698 the Spanish established a presidio in the area, from which the modern city gradually developed. The area changed hands several times as European powers competed in North America. During Florida's British rule (1763–1789), fortifications were strengthened.
It is nicknamed The City of Five Flags, due to the five governments that have ruled it during its history: the flags of Spain (Castile), France, Great Britain, the United States of America and the Confederate States of America. Other nicknames include World's Whitest Beaches (due to the white sand of Florida panhandle beaches), Cradle of Naval Aviation, Western Gate to the Sunshine State, America's First Settlement, Emerald Coast, Redneck Riviera, Red Snapper Capital of the World, and P-Cola.
