Within a day of discovering SISTER FRANCIS CLARE. I came up with the draft of a proposal I would put before the City of Springfield. Why did I not know it was a done deal – and then some!
I have decided to surrender! Turn myself in. I want to be the first patient at Timber Springs Behavioral Health Hospital , which to be looks like the Mausoleum of the Great Augurs. I want Bed No 1, Section A. that has traditionally been reserved by Mad Men who claim they were Caesars Augur.
“And, in our most honored bed, is Antony of Rome.”
“Hello!”
“I tried to warn him, But, her wouldn’t listen!”
Do I got the book and the series! How about a movie?

Tale of Two Murals
Posted on August 29, 2015 by Royal Rosamond Press
There once were two Kesey Murals in Springfield. My friend Nancy described the first one and got one of names of the artists, right, so I was able to restore the lost description of the mural that was painted on the outside wall of the The Creamery that Chuck told me the town leaders hated.
“It was the only mural for a hundred miles around, and, it had to go!” Said the husband of Sue Kesey, and brother-in-law of Ken.
“There was a caldron with marijuana plants!” Nancy, of yogurt fame, added.
“Wasn’t there a Unicorn?” asked I.
Behavioral Health Campus in Lane County
Lane County and PeaceHealth have formed a strategic partnership to acquire land located off International Way in Springfield with the goal of building a behavioral health care campus. The campus will be home to PeaceHealth’s new 96-bed Timber Springs Behavioral Health Hospital on their parcel, and immediately adjacent Lane County will construct the Lane Stabilization Center.
The campus will be a huge leap forward in being able to complete the behavioral health continuum of care and provide critical services for communities across Lane County. The close proximity of these two facilities will mean better outcomes for those who access services and for our partners who will be supporting individuals in accessing care.
Lane County is currently in an 180-day due diligence phase, during which they are seeking public input.

Kesey Mural Passes Augur’s Test
Work on the Ken Kesey mural in downtown Springfield came to a sudden halt while I registered the auspices of this grand undertaking. As Master Augur of the West Coast, I felt it was my civic duty to put Ken’s mural to the Augur’s Acid Test. I am happy to report this fine work of art passed with flying colors.
Jon ‘The Augur’
“Let the boundaries of my templa and the wild lands (tesca) be as I declare them with my words. That tree of whatever kind it is which I deem myself to have named, let it be the boundary of my templum and the wild land to the right. That tree, of whatever kind it is, insofar as I deem myself to have named it, let it be the boundary of my temple and the wild land on the left. Between these points I have established the templa and the wild lands by means of directing (conregione), viewing (conspicione), reflecting (cortumiones) as far as I have been most rightly aware of it within this limit.”
(Varro: On the Latin Language, VII.8)
The augur was a priest and official in the classical world, especially ancient Rome and Etruria. His main role was the practice of augury, interpreting the will of the gods by studying the flight of birds: whether they are flying in groups or alone, what noises they make as they fly, direction of flight and what kind of birds they are. This was known as “taking the auspices.” The ceremony and function of the augur was central to any major undertaking in Roman society—public or private—including matters of war, commerce, and religion.
The Roman historian Livy stresses the importance of the augurs: “Who does not know that this city was founded only after taking the auspices, that everything in war and in peace, at home and abroad, was done only after taking the auspices?”[1]
Augury sought the divine will regarding any proposed course of action which might affect Rome’s pax, fortuna and salus (peace, good fortune and wellbeing).[2] Political, military and civil actions were sanctioned by augury, historically performed by priests of the college of augurs and by haruspices on behalf of senior magistrates. The presiding magistrate at an augural rite thus held the “right of augury” (ius augurii).[3] Magistracies (which included senior military and civil ranks) were therefore religious offices in their own right, and magistrates were directly responsible for the pax, fortuna and salus of Rome and everything that was Roman.

Before taking the auspicia impetrativa (“requested” or “sought” auspices; see below) the templum, or sacred space within which the operation would take place had to be established and delimited (it should be square and have only one entrance)[21][22] and purified (effari, liberare).[23]
