Rodriguez - Cause

Trafalgar Square, London

Durga shagor is in Barisal, its famous cause of the winter birds coming from cyberia every year. There is an island in the middle, lake itself is quite huge. Legend says then King's wife Durga had a wish from her husband and she wanted a DIGHI(lake). She was told to carry a KOLSHI(Bangladeshi water bucket) and keep walking. Lake will be as long as the queen carries the KOLSHI. Devi durga started to walk, but she wasnt stopping, King got worried to see the distance she covered, so he tricked and dropped his hankerchief infront of the Queen assuming she would pick it up. As he assumed, Queen picked it up for the King leaving the KOLSHI on the ground and everyone marked that spot for the length of the lake.

However, this lake wasnt built according to the original length, because it was still too long, King kept the budge low.

Since the birth of the lake, its known as Durga Shagor. Durga is the Queen's name and cause of the size its called sagor(sea). Now every year, hindu people arrange puja, mela and remember Devi Durga.

'Cause nobody wants to go it on their own

And everyone wants to know they're not alone

Somebody else that feels the same somewhere

There's gotta be somebody for me out there.

The area that was to become West Palm Beach was settled in the late 1870s and 1880s by a few hundred settlers who called the vicinity "Lake Worth Country." These settlers were a diverse community from different parts of the United States and the world. They included founding families such at the Potters and the Lainharts, who would go on to become leading members of the business community in the fledgling city. The first white settlers in Palm Beach County lived around Lake Worth, then an enclosed freshwater lake, named for Colonel William Jenkins Worth, who had fought in the Second Seminole War in Florida in 1842. Most settlers engaged in the growing of tropical fruits and vegetables for shipment the north via Lake Worth and the Indian River. By 1890, the U.S. Census counted over 200 people settled along Lake Worth in the vicinity of what would become West Palm Beach. The area at this time also boasted a hotel, the "Cocoanut House", a church, and a post office. The city was platted by Henry Flagler as a community to house the servants working in the two grand hotels on the neighboring island of Palm Beach, across Lake Worth in 1893, coinciding with the arrival of the Florida East Coast railroad. Flagler paid two area settlers, Captain Porter and Louie Hillhouse, a combined sum of $45,000 for the original town site, stretching from Clear Lake to Lake Worth.

On November 5, 1894, 78 people met at the "Calaboose" (the first jail and police station located at Clematis St. and Poinsettia, now Dixie Hwy.) and passed the motion to incorporate the Town of West Palm Beach in what was then Dade County (now Miami-Dade County). This made West Palm Beach the first incorporated municipality in Dade County and in South Florida. The town council quickly addressed the building codes and the tents and shanties were replaced by brick, brick veneer, and stone buildings. The city grew steadily during the 1890s and the first two decades of the 20th century, most residents were engaged in the tourist industry and related services or winter vegetable market and tropical fruit trade. In 1909, Palm Beach County was formed by the Florida State Legislature and West Palm Beach became the county seat. In 1916, a new neo-classical courthouse was opened, which has been painstakingly restored back to its original condition, and is now used as the local history museum.

The city grew rapidly in the 1920s as part of the Florida land boom. The population of West Palm Beach quadrupled from 1920 to 1927, and all kinds of businesses and public services grew along with it. Many of the city's landmark structures and preserved neighborhoods were constructed during this period. Originally, Flagler intended for his Florida East Coast Railway to have its terminus in West Palm, but after the area experienced a deep freeze, he chose to extend the railroad to Miami instead.

The land boom was already faltering when city was devastated by the 1928 Okeechobee hurricane. The Depression years of the 1930s were a quiet time for the area, which saw slight population growth and property values lower than during the 1920s. The city only recovered with the onset of World War II, which saw the construction of Palm Beach Air Force Base, which brought thousands of military personnel to the city. The base was vital to the allied war effort, as it provided an excellent training facility and had unparalleled access to North Africa for a North American city. Also during World War II, German U-Boats sank dozens of merchant ships and oil tankers just off the coast of West Palm Beach. Nearby Palm Beach was under black out conditions to minimize night visibility to German U-boats.

The 1950s saw another boom in population, partly due to the return of many soldiers and airmen who had served in the vicinity during the war. Also, the advent of air conditioning encouraged growth, as year-round living in a tropical climate became more acceptable to northerners. West Palm Beach became the one of the nation's fastest growing metropolitan areas during the 1950s; the city's borders spread west of Military Trail and south to Lake Clarke Shores. However, many of the city's residents still lived within a narrow six-block wide strip from the south to north end. The neighborhoods were strictly segregated between White and African-American populations, a legacy that the city still struggles with today. The primary shopping district remained downtown, centered around Clematis Street.

In the 1960s, Palm Beach County's first enclosed shopping mall, the Palm Beach Mall, and an indoor arena were completed. These projects led to a brief revival for the city, but in the 1970s and 1980s crime continued to be a serious issue and suburban sprawl continued to drain resources and business away from the old downtown area. By the early 1990s there were very high vacancy rates downtown, and serious levels of urban blight.

Since the 1990s, developments such as CityPlace and the preservation and renovation of 1920s architecture in the nightlife hub of Clematis Street have seen a downtown resurgence in the entertainment and shopping district. The city has also placed emphasis on neighborhood development and revitalization, in historic districts such as Northwood, Flamingo Park, and El Cid. Some neighborhoods still struggle with blight and crime, as well as lowered property values caused by the Great Recession, which hit the region particularly hard. Since the recovery, multiple new developments have been completed. The Palm Beach Mall, located at the Interstate 95/Palm Beach Lakes Boulevard interchange became abandoned as downtown revitalized - the very mall that initiated the original abandonment of the downtown. The mall was then redeveloped into the Palm Beach Fashion Outlets in February 2014. A station for All Aboard Florida, a high-speed passenger rail service serving Miami, Fort Lauderdale, West Palm Beach, and Orlando, is under construction as of July 2015.

“Another head hangs lowly

And the violence, caused such silence

I was going to attach the audio of an Air Force or National Guard Jet, diving at our Motorhome. But, I like this picture to much to have a play icon, stuck in the middle of it. I’ll post the audio, to another post. It is one of the many, many acts, I’ve caught on audio. This is our government using its Military; to stalk, harass, intimidate and bait, a US Citizen, on US Soil. There are thousands of Targeted Individuals, in the United States. These American Whistleblowers, Targets, are being used as Test Subjects. For Physiological and Electronic Torture. 60 Minutes (CBS), did a Segment on this; Episode 23, aired 2-20-22, Americans Targeted. I commend them on their efforts to expose this.

In this Segment; American victims, described these Electronic Attacks. Some at our Capitol. They and their family members acquired, devastating medical conditions from these attacks. One government official; described the attacks on his children, while they were sleeping. He said they would toss, turn, there would be a loud noise admitting around their heads. Once removed from the area; they stopped. They suffered from numerous medical conditions. He said he wished our Government would stop Gaslighting, and do something.

Another woman, describing how her child went blind in the right eye. If you have the time, I encourage you to educate yourself on what is really happening in America. You will need a Paramount +, subscription, to stream 60 Minutes that far back. It’s your America, It's worth watching.

During the segment; our own CIA Director, said he doesn’t know who or how they are doing it. I call Bullshit! Mr. CIA Director, if you want to know about Electronic Torture, come see me; Rick Pineiro, now in Grand Junction, Colorado, area. These people have no boundaries. I have 14 years of Targeted experience. It’s pretty much the same Bullshit with our FBI Director, Homeland Security Director and Justice Department. It doesn’t matter what administration is in power. Our Government and many legislators are beyond corrupt. They are what have gotten us here today. Power and Control.

As America continues to astonish the world with its barbaric behavior. Our Government continues to release and duplicate its Zombies, in our communities. These aren’t real Zombies, but are the bottom feeders, the village idiots, sociopaths and self anointed narcissus. They live in every American Community. These are Americans; laying in wait for the next Target to come to their community. Yep, the Boogieman is here, they have no rights, this is America. Their goal is to rid their communities of anyone, they feel not worthy, of living within their communities. Kinda reminds you of the KKK. Guided by Contractors and Branches of our Government; these people have no boundaries, no accountability. And, this is why many local law enforcement agencies, turn a blind eye, or, participate. Kinda reminds me of the KKK, again. I read about them, but not in our schools.

These Americans will use local law enforcement, children, animals, pets, guns, vehicles, Physiological and Electronic Torture. They will destroy your life. They will bait you, discredit you, rally a community against you. Mob you, stalk you, harass you, illegally watch, video and record everything in your life. They and government contractors will use Physiological and Electronic Torture. They will use these tactics; Gaslighting, perform Street Theater, and Baiting you. At VA Clinics, Hospitals and other Medical Facilities. This is what you call Gang Stalking in America. I call it Domestic Terrorism. Our Homeland Security Secretary, wants to increase this type of community hate. He wants more Community Involved Monitoring. These people allowed roaming free across America, without consequence for their actions.

As I composed these 5 images, I took for this picture; someone very close started firing off riffle rounds. Bullets, whizzing not far overhead. When I set up to take pictures this morning (7-6-22), someone starts firing a high-powered rifle in the background. When I stepped out of our Motorhome today, to move our solar panels; someone started shooting a high-powered rifle over our Motorhome. Rounds whizzing over it, as I moved the panels. Koda, inside barking. Then they started firing rounds, into the hill I was taking pictures from this morning. It was just to the front of our camp.

Mr. Homeland Security, CIA and FBI Directors. This happens in Colorado (where I currently am), Wyoming, Arizona and Utah. When I was in the Military, I expected live rounds, aircraft diving overhead; I lived it. I didn’t expect it across, state by state; in the United States of America. This is what happens to brave Americans; trying to expose the truth about Corruption, Electronic Torture and Gang Stalking. It would be great if one of you Directors, would grab your balls, and find a grain of that type of courage!

Until we remove ourselves of our corrupt officials, it will only get worse. Many years ago; I predicted mobbing would eventually get to the point; where Law Enforcement could not control these mobs. Just look through my photostream. Here we are, folks. Aren't you proud! Now I’m going to have Billy-Bob, and his Sister’s Daughter Wife, chase me down in a big pickup truck. Brandishing oversized, American flags in the bed. Go American Education System; showing yourself so vividly.

This photo and all in my photostream are free to download, print, and share. All I ask is you keep my Trade Marks and share something with someone in need. Maybe a couple bottles of water, or a sandwich. You would be surprised how much people do have in common.

I’ve rambled on long enough for today. Violence is not the answer, please educate yourself.

Thanks for visiting our photostream.

You've got it all

You lost your mind in the sound

There's so much more

You can reclaim your crown

You're in control

Rid of the monsters inside your head

Put all your faults to bed

You can be king again.

So I shoot with Jordan a lot, but I barely ever shoot anything conceptual of him. Last week I decided it was time to change that and it ended up being very similar to the only other conceptual photo I've ever shot of him, years back when we were just friends.

p.s. I seriously hope the links I've put in this description work, since Flickr updated they never seem to link through properly

p.p.s you should all check out the song I used the lyrics from! Lauren is AMAZING

cause I think Half Dome has been described every possibly way

have a great weekend!

Confederates convinced themselves that if they showed up in force, Kentuckians would not be intimidated by the United States but would feel free to join the Confederate cause and would join in droves.

Kentuckians did not. Quite the opposite.

The border state had declared itself neutral at the outset of the secession of southern states in the hope of brokering a grand compromise between the North and South to prevent civil war. Kentuckians did not want war and did not want apocalyptic battles of carnage between their fellow countrymen in their own yard. Although a small minority, sizable and elite parts of the population in the state, supported the Confederacy, Kentuckians did not want citizens of their state to be at war with one another. That was not good state policy. So, neutrality.

Despite being part of a slave-owning state, when push came to shove, Kentuckians overwhelmingly felt more loyalty to the U.S. Constitution and the United States. "United we stand, divided we fall" had been its state motto since 1792.

Rural and urban Kentuckians–north, south, and east–joined overwhelmingly to fight on the side of the United States against the Confederacy. They voted for pro-Union state legislators so much that 4 out of 5* of Kentucky's legislators were pro-Union. Even before the Civil War pushed Kentucky to polarize even more in support of the Union, early in the war the state House of Representatives introduced and passed a law that made joining the Confederate army a traitorous act against Kentucky and illegal for Kentuckians in House Bill 36 of 1861. Regarding national congressmen at the outset of secession, Steven Bernstein in Kentucky in the Civil War 1861-1862 writes: "On June 20th, Kentuckians elected 10 Congressmen, 9 of whom were Unionist."

*Note: I'm going by memory on the 4:5 legislator data. I think this was from the book Kentucky's Civil War. I'm looking for the sources on this data now…

...cause EVERYBODY smoked back then, even while getting their haircut.

I think you better close it

And let me guide you to the Purple Rain

I dedicate this to the friends that have believed in me , and all the people that know what it is like to chase dreams. They understand what it means to our very souls. Nothing is sweeter than the success you find when all the naysayers are proven wrong, because SOMEONE believed in you and that was enough to make you begin to believe in yourself.

Thank you <3

in loving you with first sight, I know it's crazy but I'm hoping to..to take a hold of you. could this be out of line? to say you're the only one breaking me down like this, you're the only one I would take a shot on. keep me hanging on so contagiously. ♥

Wytheville Virginia

Waltzing Matilda whipped out her wallet

The sexy boy smiled in dismay

She took out four twenties cause she liked round figures

Everybody's a queen for a day

Oh, babe, I'm on fire and you know how I admire your body, why don't we slip away

Although I'm sure you're certain, its a rarity me flirtin'

Sha-la-la-la, this way

Oh, sha-la-la-la-la, sha-la-la-la-la

Hey, baby, come on, lets slip away

Luscious and gorgeous, oh what a humpin' muscle

Call out the national guard

She creamed in her jeans as he picked up her knees

From off of the formica topped bar

And cascading slowly, he lifted her wholly

And boldly out of this world

And despite peoples derision

Proved to be more than diversion

Sha-la-la-la, later on

And then sha-la-la-la-la, he entered her slowly

And showed her where he was coming from

And then sha-la-la-la-la, he made love to her gently

It was like she'd never ever come

And then sha-la-la-la-la, sha-la-la-la-la

When the sun rose and he made to leave

You know, sha-la-la-la-la, sha-la-la-la-la

Neither one regretted a thing

Hey, that cunt's not breathing

I think she's had too much

Of something or other, hey, man, you know what I mean

I don't mean to scare you

But you're the one who came here

And you're the one who's gotta take her when you leave

I'm not being smart

Or trying to be cold on my part

And I'm not gonna wear my heart on my sleeve

But you know people get all emotional

And sometimes, man, they just don't act rational

They think they're just on TV

Sha-la-la-la, man

Why don't you just slip her away

You know, I'm glad that we met man

It really was nice talking

And I really wish that there was a little more time to speak

But you know it could be a hassle

Trying to explain myself to a police officer

About how it was that your old lady got herself stiffed

And its not like we could help

But there was nothing no one could do

And if there was, man, you know I would have been the first

But when someone turns that blue

Well, its a universal truth

And then you just know that bitch will never fuck again

By the way, that's really some bad shit

That you came to our place with

But you ought to be more careful around the little girls

It's either the best or its the worst

And since I don't have to choose

I guess I won't and I know this ain't no way to treat a guest

But why don't you grab your old lady by the feet

And just lay her out on the darkened street

And by morning, shes just another hit and run

You know, some people got no choice

And they cant never find a voice

To talk with that they can even call their own

So the first thing that they see

That allows them the right to be

Why they follow it, you know, it's called bad luck

Believe me, that it's just a lie

That's what she tells her friends

cause the real song, the real song

Which she won't even admit to herself

Beat of a heart, the song lots of people know

It's a painful song

It'll only say the truth

It lasts for sad songs

Penny for a wish

A wish wont make you a soldier

A pretty kiss or a pretty face

Can't have it's way

The tramps like us, we were born to pay

Love is gone away

And there's no one here now

And there's nothing left to say

But, oh, how I miss him, baby

Oh, baby, come on and slip away

Come on, baby, why don't you slip away

Love is gone away

Took the rings off my fingers

And theres nothing left to say

But, oh how, oh how I need him, baby

Come on, baby, I need you baby

Oh, please don't slip away

I need your loving so bad, babe

Please don't slip away

The summer sun ray

shifts through a suspicious tree.

though I walk through the valley of the shadow

It sucks the air

and looks around for me.

The grass speaks.

I hear green chanting all day.

I will fear no evil, fear no evil

The blades extend

and reach my way.

The sky breaks.

It sags and breathes upon my face.

In the presence of mine enemies, mine enemies

The world is full of enemies.

There is no safe place.

~ Anne Sexton, "Noon Walk on the Asylum Lawn"

I wanna run through your wicked garden

Heard that's the place to find you

Cause I'm alive, so alive now

I know the darkness binds you

Can you see without eyes?

Can you speak without lies?
