1. Overview of the town and its legendary underground caves. Early Christians used the caves as a secret hideout - or so the story goes. Persistent rumors have it their souls are still haunting the grounds. How else would you explain the strange rumbling noises heard lately?

A group of 15th century mystics have come together in the Syrian desert town of Qryh an-Nbydh (literally 'Wine Village'). Concerned with the ongoing persecution of Christians under the terrible Timur Lenk, they join forces to restore people's belief. Their plan is to recreate one of the most popular miracles of the New Testament: Jesus turning water to wine. Will they succeed?
This photoset has 20 pictures and 2 movies. To begin with a guided tour around town, start here:

and proceed in numerical order. Highlights include romanticized Middle East architecture, two bathing men, a close encounter with the mystics, and the current meme of fitting cheese slopes between PoP arches. If you've come only to see the miracle, crank up the volume and watch this:

Our middle-school students at Tam High are building a City of the Future together, using arts and electronics to make a model of what our world may be like in 100 years.
In our sixth class, students worked in teams to make public spaces for their city: underwater mines, segregated neighborhoods, surface rubbles and gated skyscrapers for the rich. This week’s creations included a new city sign, more ladders, more mine workers, and tall, skinny towers scraping the crimson sky.
They also agreed on a final name for their city: 15A, named after its sector coordinates. In their post-apocalyptic city of the future, the rich are separated from the poor, who mine the sea floor and are oppressed by a government run by machines.
I am teaching this after-school class with Geo Monley and Cynthia Gilbert, and we are happy to see our students so engaged in this project. Through this course, they are developing a range of skills, from creative expression to science and engineering (STEAM). And they are learn to create interactive art with simple electronics, in a playful and collaborative way that makes learning more fun.

The London Buses Incident Response Unit liveried version of CMN's Mercedes Sprinter lends itself well to fire appliance roles. This one has had its original lettering stripped off with nail varnish remover and been rebranded as an Incident Support Unit, and the rescue boat on tow is a Cararama/Schuco model. YK09 DSR is seen when brand new prior to going on the run with my fictional North Riding brigade.
What I like about this Photo is the color of my eyes. What I don't like is the eyeshadow color. What I would change is trying different areas outside to get a better photo. Link below wonderfulmachine.com/photographer/mo-daoud?specialty=beau...

This photo cost me a cool £1...he would only smile if I doubled that amount. An opportunity missed? A good sport though.
