The Wihdat (Wehdat) refugee camp, which was established in Amman in 1948, is home to over 54,000 Palestinian refugees who were displaced from their homes in Palestine in 1948. Officially referred to as the "Amman Camp", Wihdat is currently under the authority of the United Nations Refugee Works Agency (UNRWA) which provides its people with basic education and healthcare. Notwithstanding the aid provided by UNRWA, Wihdat, like other Palestinian refugee camps throughout the Middle East, is impoverished with its citizens often forced to contend with the daily torments that accompany poverty. Although Palestinians living in the Wihdat camp are provided Jordanian citizenship, the stigma of being born in a refugee camp and, therefore labelled "ibn al mukhayam" (son of the refugee camp), leads to discrimination and, often, lack of equal opportunities for both men and women from the camp. Furthermore, the local municipality in Amman does not provide basic infrastructural or civic services to any of the refugee camps in Jordan. Thus, in the absence of sanitation services, many of the Palestinian refugee camps in Jordan have garbage-strewn allies, overground sewage, and little if any access to electricity. In light of these as well as other issues stemming from the lack of civic services, places Palestinian residents of these camps at risk of serious harm (in terms of health, economic prospects, and access to quality education and healthcare)

Umpqua Lighthouse State Park is located less than a mile from Salmon Harbor on Winchester Bay. The campground and developed day use areas are centered around Lake Marie. Access to this small freshwater lake is provided for angling and non-motorized boating. There is also a small sandy beach set aside for swimming or just relaxing.
The small overnight campground offers RV and tent campsites, along with two beautiful one-room log cabins. These warm and cozy cabins sleep four comfortably. They also have covered porches which overlook picturesque Lake Marie. Rustic and deluxe yurts are also available in the campground . Showers and restrooms are centrally located.
The park is centered in the stretch of towering sand dunes protected by the Oregon Dunes National Recreation Area. These dunes, many of which reach heights of 500 feet or more, are ideal for the off-road enthusiast, or for the person who enjoys the magnificent wonders of nature.
The Umpqua River Lighthouse towers above the entrance to Winchester Bay. The 65-foot tower contains a distinctive lens which emits a red and white flash. The lighthouse and adjacent museum are operated and maintained by the Douglas County Parks Department. For information about museum and lighthouse tours, call (541) 271-4631.

NEoN is bringing the Travelling Gallery to town, Day of Access exhibition will pop up in various locations across the city.
Travelling Gallery is delighted to be working with Alec Finlay to support Day of Access, a powerful campaign which encourages estates to open their land to allow access for people affected by disability. By using hill tracks and four-wheel drives, people who have never been able to immerse themselves in wild nature are driven into the heart Scotland’s beautiful wild landscape.
The Day of Access campaign passionately believes that everyone should have the opportunity to experience wild nature. Travelling Gallery will act as the campaign bus touring Day of Access across Scotland; presenting information and artworks and allowing a space for discussions. Documentation from the pilot Day of Access, including work by young photographer Sam McDiarmid, will be exhibited in an art installation created by Finlay.
The themes of disability, access and ecological remediation are explored in Finlay’s poems and artwork. Pages from books exploring illness, pain, walking and healing, including A View from the Front Line by Maggie Keswick Jencks, are used as paper for thoughtful drawings and commanding words “THERE CAN NEVER BE AN EXCESS OF ACCESS”.
Alongside his own work Alec has invited other artists and poets to exhibit including Hannah Devereaux, Alison Lloyd, Ken Cockburn and Mhairi Law; each bringing their own creativity and experience to the project. The work is collaboratively displayed like a scrap book or diary pinned on a garden trellis, alongside other domestic apparatus and soft furnishings, such as blankets, a clothes horse, and hankies.
About the Artist:
Alec Finlay (Scotland, 1966) is an internationally-recognised artist and poet whose work crosses over a range of media and forms. Much of Finlay’s work considers how we as a culture, or cultures, relate to landscape and ecology. Through permanent and temporary interventions, integrative web-based projects, and publications, Finlay weaves together generous experiential works, often collaborative, sometimes mapped directly onto the landscape, embedded socially or accessed online. Recently Finlay’s work has focussed on place-awareness and ecopoetics.

Throughout Africa, public libraries are promoting social and economic development in their communities through financial literacy workshops, ICT training for women, health classes, programs for children, and more.
Representatives from some of those libraries — from nine countries throughout Africa and Europe — came to the Beyond Access event in Cape Town, South Africa to build partnerships and exchange ideas on how libraries can drive development.

Beyond Access Member teams representing twelve countries in Asia and Europe gathered in Indonesia to share their successes, challenges, and visions about the role of modern libraries in their communities. Participants came from vastly different countries in terms of culture, level of development, and political environment. Yet they shared many of the same challenges, and more importantly, they shared a commitment to the role libraries play in their communities.
Kilchurn Castle is a ruined 15th and 17th century structure on a rocky peninsula at the northeastern end of Loch Awe, in Argyll and Bute, Scotland. Access to the Castle is sometimes restricted by higher-than-usual levels of water in the Loch, at which times the site effectively becomes a temporary island.
It was the ancestral home of the Campbells of Glen Orchy, who later became the Earls of Breadalbane also known as the Breadalbane family branch, of the Clan Campbell. The earliest construction on the castle was the towerhouse and Laich Hall

Not a glamorous photo, just one of the bride supports covered with 'artwork'. Took it partly to test the lens, but also to show how the industrious graffiti artists cut into an access panel then locked it off from less industrious 'artists' with a bike lock.
A combination of my bridge project with the studio 26 assignment of deep depth of field and testing out a borrowed 16-35 f4 lens. 16mm, f9, ISO 250, 1/80 sec exposure, focus on the graffiti. Everything not overexposed is in focus.
