Thomas Caleb Waldon was born on November 12 in New York City not long after his parents arrived from England. The actual year of his birth later became a matter of dispute between Waldon and the US Pension Bureau with Waldon claiming it was 1845 while the government, citing various documentary evidence, recognized 1846. Waldon's father died in 1854. By the time of the Civil War, Thomas, with his mother and siblings, was living at Lodi, Bergen County, New Jersey.
With the war well into its third year, Waldon enlisted at Hackensack, NJ, on September 3, 1863 for a period of three years in Company H, 2nd New Jersey Cavalry. His enlistment papers describe him as being 17 years old, 5'6" in height, with a dark complexion, blue eyes and light hair. His occupation was listed as a farmer. He was paid $25 up front from his $100 enlistment bounty, with the balance due in future instalments. His CDV photo, probably taken shortly after his enlistment, shows a boy with a very youthful face. No brass buttons show on the front of his mounted man's jacket. Instead, it appears that in order to compensate for a garment that was too large for him, he overlapped the front panels rather than buttoning them, and then folded his arms to keep the coat closed tight and close fitting across his chest.
In October the regiment left for Washington, DC., but a month later was transferred west where it would spend most of its time scouting in Mississippi and Tennessee. Winter camp life was hard on the young soldier. On January 6, 1864 he was sent to the hospital at Mound City, Illinois, for a short period. But after rejoining his regiment and taking part in the march to Collierville, Tennessee in early February, "he contracted a heavy cold" and was sent to Adams General Hospital in Memphis, where he remained a patient from February 9 until June 7, 1864 when he was returned to duty. Regimental muster rolls for this period indicate that he rejoined his company in the field at White Station, Tennessee on June 15, 1864.
He was with his regiment in early July when the mounted troops set out on an expedition from Memphis, Tennessee to Grand Gulf, Mississippi. Waldon referred to this as the Vicksburg Raid. But once again his system was not up to the challenges of life on the march. As he later explained, "...while on this raid I contracted the chronic diarrhea. We returned to White Station about the first of September /64. After I returned to camp the disease became worse so that about the first of October I had to go to the Regimental Hospital. Remained there about two weeks and was then transferred to Adams General Hospital at Memphis, Tenn. where I was attended by Doctor Wilson without success. I continued to grow worse so that it became necessary to send me North to save my life. Doctor Wilson procured for me a furlough for 30 days in the latter part of December /64. I reached home at Lodi, Bergen County, N.J. on the 2nd of January 1865."
Waldon's furlough was valid from December 28, 1864 to January 27, 1865 after which he had orders to report in person at Adams General Hospital Memphis, Tennessee or be considered a deserter. Transportation was provided as far as Cairo, Illinois. From there he presumably traveled by a combination of rail and river to his home in the east. A week after his furlough expired, and without hearing any word from him, Waldon "was reported by surgeon in charge General Hospital Memphis, Tenn. Feb. 5, 1865 as a Deserter while on Furlough."
Meanwhile, back in New Jersey, Waldon was not faring well. He received treatment from a private doctor who later stated that he had treated Waldon at his home from January through March, "the greatest part of which time he, the said Thomas C. Waldon, was confined to his bed with a severe attack of 'Chronic Diarrhea', rendering him unfit to travel."
It must have occurred to Waldon at some point that his continued absence would prove problematic. On April 4, 1865, he was brought by wagon to Ward U.S. Army General Hospital in Newark, NJ, and admitted as a patient there. After receiving several sworn statements by Waldon and his doctor, the army finally concluded on August 22, 1865 that "Pvt. Thomas C. Waldron Co. H. 2 N.J. Cav. is relieved from the charge of desertion; his absence having been satisfactorily accounted for."
Although still in his teens, Waldon's health had been permanently ruined. Anxious to be free of the army, he later explained, "About the middle of July 1865 I began to recover so that by the first of September felt able to take my discharge. So I demanded it under a General [Order] issued a short time previous." He received his discharge from the army while at Ward General Hospital on September 8, 1865, on a Surgeon's Certificate of disability for rheumatism, scrofula, and "Chronic Diarrhea Disease contracted while on a raid near Vicksburg, Miss. July 10, 1864 as he alleges." His discharge also succinctly stated, "Disability Total."
Waldon said, "I then went home but was not able work until the following April. I then went to work for about one month [when] my left leg began to swell...About the same time there commenced to form a lump on my breast...My breast afterwards broke out in a running abscess. I then went to Saint Luke's Hospital, New York City and had an operation performed. Went to the N.J. Home for disabled Soldiers at Newark, N.J. where I have been an inmate at several different times."
When not an inmate of the Soldier's Home, Waldon worked as a carpenter and lived in Newark (1865-1872) and Jersey City (1872 - 1882). In spite of his health issues, Waldon married Catherine [Kate] Ann Terhune in 1868. The couple had seven children (Thomas; Elizabeth; Mary; George; Caleb; Sarah; and John) before Catherine died of phthisis (pulmonary tuberculosis) on August 22, 1881 at the age of 31. Only two daughters (Mary and Sarah) survived into adulthood.
In 1879, as part of his ongoing correspondence with the U.S. Pension Bureau, Waldon claimed that he had been wounded during the war. Although there are no records that support his claim, Waldon was deposed as stating, "on or about the 10th day of June, 1864, he was engaged with his Company and regiment in the fight at Guntown [Miss]; that on the retreat said company was covering the rear and at nearly of the evening of said day [he] was wounded by a rebel musket-ball just about middle of the breast bone. That he was taken up by Corporal Hunter of said company and put in ambulance. That said wound and the fatigue of said engagement produced chronic diarrhea & general debility. That he was treated at Field Hospital at White Station about ten days. Thence he was taken to Adams General Hospital at Memphis."
The June 10, 1864 date of this fight and his supposed wounding falls during the week he was in transit between being released from the hospital in Memphis on June 7 and reporting to his regiment at Whites Station just outside the city on June 15. Guntown was almost 100 miles away. If the incident actually happened, perhaps Waldon misremembered the time and place. Perhaps he confused the time and location of a fight that really happened while on the Vicksburg Raid later that summer. Or, did Waldon invent the fiction of a war wound to go with the surgical scars on his breast from the abscess in 1866? Or, on the other hand, could the abscess itself have been the result of lingering infection from foreign matter lodged under the skin as a result of a wound? The Pension Bureau concluded there was no evidence for such a wound.
Following his first wife's death, Waldon moved to New York in 1882. He remarried in 1888. His new wife, Elizabeth Manifold, had been born in Ireland and she was much younger than him. Indeed, she had not even been born until 1867, two years after he was discharged from the army. Elizabeth bore five children: Elizabeth; Thomas; Margaret; James; and Thomas. Tragically childhood illness took their toll. Only James was still alive by 1915, and he was struck and killed by an automobile in April 1916.
Thomas C. Waldon, who had suffered so terribly with poor health during the war, died "suddenly" in New York City on June 10, 1917. His wife survived him.

Who would ever be able to imagine the mixture of cultures that are reflected in his features:
a mix of sange greek, French, Croatian and Romanian; features special, sweet and at the same time net
a crystal blue eyes and pale complexion
Female, woman and girl loves fashion, art and languages
It has a character all to interpret: sensitive, a little touchy and so sweetly naive
He likes to stay to himself, in his world, in his art. He has a thousand dreams and a place in his heart already occupied
not betray you ever and is capable of affezzionarsi to you as nobody here, you do not forget easily. is in Italy for years and speaks fluent
It is here to study Italian art and culture, which has always fascinated me as a child;
his family has remained in his home country and understand how it can be complicated
away agi family ties only to chase their dreams,
for this reason I consider it a strong girl, determined and courageous, because it takes a lot of courage
to go halfway around the world alone. For this reason it is to be estimated, and certainly has my estimation

Chi mai riuscirebbe ad immaginare il misto di culture che si rispecchiano nei suoi lineamenti:
un mix di sange greco,francese,croato e rumeno; lineamenti particolari, dolci e allo stesso tempo netti
occhioni di un azzurro cristallino e carnagione tenue
Femminile, donna e ragazza, ama la moda, l'arte e le lingue
ha un carattere tutto da interpretare: sensibile, un poco permalosa e così dolcemente ingenua
ama stare tra se e se, nel suo mondo, nella sua arte. Ha mille sogni nel cassetto e un posto nel suo cuore già occupato
non ti tradirebbe mai ed è capace di affezzionarsi a te come nussuno, non ti dimentica facilmente. é in Italia da anni ormai e parla perfettamente la lingua
è qui per studiare l'arte e la cultura italiana, che l'ha sempre affascinata fin da bambina;
la sua famiglia è rimasta nel suo paese d'origine e capisco come possa essere complicato
allontanarsi agi affetti familiari solo per inseguire il proprio sogno,
proprio per questo la ritengo una ragazza forte, determina e coraggiosa, perchè ci vuole un bel coraggio
ad andare dall'altra parte del mondo da sole. Per questo motivo è da stimare, e di sicuro ha tutta la mia di stima.

Garza real
Ardea cinerea
Familia: Ardeidos – Ardeidae
Aspecto: Garza grande, de complexión robusta, predominantemente de color gris, con un pico recto, fuerte, en forma de daga. Las garzas pueden diferenciarse de las grullas durante el vuelo, y a menudo también cuando están de pie, por la forma en que encorvan su cuello.
Tamaño: Largo 84-102 cm, envergadura alar 155-175 cm, peso 930-1.150 g.
Nido: Una gran pila desarreglada de ramas, generalmente construido muy alto en un abeto o pino. Las aves pueden usar el mismo nido durante muchos años.
Reproducción: Pone 6 huevos en mayo, incubados de forma alternada por los padres, en 4 a 6 períodos, durante 25 a 28 días. Las aves jóvenes aprenden a volar aproximadamente a los 50 días. Muchas garzas reales anidan en colonias.
Distribución: Ave migratoria de verano que se reproduce poco en Finlandia (solo hay alrededor de 100 parejas). En los últimos años, los avistamientos de invierno se han vuelto más comunes.
Migración: Pasa el invierno en el oeste y sur de Europa. La migración de otoño puede tener lugar entre mediados de agosto y principios de noviembre, y las aves regresan de marzo a mayo.
Alimentación: Acecha inmóvil a lo largo de costas, lista para emboscar, en espera de que peces y animales acuáticos pequeños estén a su alcance.
Sonidos: Un chillido fuerte, molesto, similar al llamado de la pagaza piquirroja.
La garza real tiene partes superiores de color gris claro, y partes inferiores de color blanco grisáceo. Su cabeza es mayormente blanca, excepto por una raya negra que se extiende desde encima de sus ojos hasta la parte posterior de su cuello, donde algunas de sus plumas se alargan para formar una cresta. Los adultos con plumaje de apareamiento pueden tener un color rosáceo a los lados del cuello, y algunas filas de rayas oscuras en el cuello y el pecho. La garza real tiene el pico de color amarillo o naranja amarillento, patas de color marrón opaco e iris amarillo.
Las aves inmaduras generalmente se parecen a las adultas, pero su capuchón y su cuello son más grises (y el cuello no tiene color rosáceo). Su pico es más pardusco y el iris es blanco.

From the trained artists with impeccable voices & porcelain complexion (see comment), to the average homemakers & men on the street, Chengdu folks simply love song, dance & drama.
Every day, 10-20 groups of amateurs gather at the Renmin Gongyuan (People's Park) to sing & dance their hearts away under the shades of the trees, encouraged by the very appreciative crowd. With such enthusiasm, none need a stage - any corner of the park will do.

Clasificación
Orden Accipitriformes; familia Accipitridae
Longitud 46-58 cm. Envergadura 110-132 cm.
Identificación
Es una rapaz de mediano tamaño, complexión robusta y coloración muy variable, que posee un aspecto bastante rechoncho cuando se la observa posada. En vuelo exhibe unas alas relativamente cortas y muy anchas y una cola no demasiado larga, que frecuentemente despliega en abanico, gracias a lo cual el ave puede practicar durante largo rato un vuelo sostenido que alterna con cernidos ocasionales. Su plumaje presenta numerosas variaciones individuales, por lo que se pueden observar desde individuos muy claros hasta ejemplares bastante oscuros. No obstante, la coloración más típica del adulto es de un tono marronáceo bastante homogéneo en las regiones dorsales y ligeramente más clara en las ventrales, donde aparece una franja pectoral blanquecina de desigual extensión (dibujo 1). En vuelo se hacen patentes unas amplias manchas relativamente claras —muy barradas— coincidentes con las rémiges primarias y secundarias en su cara ventral. Las alas muestran el borde posterior recorrido por una banda oscura, al igual que la cola, que puede aparecer variablemente barrada (dibujo 2). El joven presenta las partes inferiores de desiguales tonos marrones y las coberteras dorsales con bordes pálidos; además, su cola está finamente barrada, pero carece de la ancha banda terminal propia de los adultos. Visto ventralmente, no se aprecia con nitidez el reborde posterior oscuro de las alas, y tanto estas como el cuerpo dan la sensación de estar más estriados que barrados. Finalmente, a diferencia de los adultos, que poseen el iris de color oscuro, el del joven es bastante claro.
Canto
En vuelo emite con frecuencia un grito característico parecido a un maullido: piiiii aaaa.
With a slimy green complexion and a name like Chlorella Kessleri, it conjures up the image of a cruel Disney villainess. But the tiny algae plant, also known as Chlorella Vulgaris, is actually the real-life hero of a process being perfected by University of Kansas engineering students and faculty.

Saffron and Sweet almond oil have been used for centuries to improve skin and complexion. Almond oil makes a highly effective natural skin moisturizer while Indian and Ayurvedic medicine links saffron to lightening complexion. In fact, some pregnant women consume significant quantities of saffron to try to lighten their baby's skin color.

In To the Ones I Love, Thierry Smits places nine dancers of African descent on the stage. More precisely, for this choice is a vital one, he uses nine dancers whose complexions hark back to Africa. In short, they are dark – either black or of mixed race. These dancers have different nationalities but belong to the world, and the fact that they are scattered over several continents proves that the world belongs to them despite the discriminatory reflexes that are incarnated in today’s immigration policies and talk about national identity. The mixing of races and cultures mocks these retreats behind the walls of identity, defies all categorisation, and transmits a troubling, implacable message of change, for tomorrow humankind will be mixed or it will not be.
Thierry Smits’s message is not political, however. It deliberately sets out to be aesthetic and refuses all concessions to exoticism. The principle is to set bodies used to “Western” choreographic techniques but nevertheless shaped by other traditions and dances in motion. They dance in a white decor and are literally transported by Johan Sebastian Bach’s music, by its overflowing generosity and immense virtuosity. The challenge is obviously to manage the unexpected outcomes of the meeting of different cultural references.
In putting nine bodies sculpted and sublimated by dance and music on the stage, Thierry Smits issues a message of love by giving a metaphorical dimension to the difference of the loved one, for the other one whom one loves is, by definition, different from the one of oneself. To celebrate twenty years of choreographic creation, Thierry Smits is treating himself to a moment of immense pleasure whilst offering his audience, family, friends, and lovers this visual gift, proof of a constantly renewed energy and an endless hunger to love passionately.

On the eighth night of Navaratri, we focus on Goddess Maha Gauri. As Parvati, She did great penance to gain Shiva as Her husband, and in the process Her complexion turned dark. Pleased with her devotion, Lord Shiva bathed her in the holy water of the Ganges and Her skin turned pure white.
She is the Mother of compassion and peace and reflects the great radiant light within us all. When we renounce our animal qualities and let go of the limitations of our mind, the Mother will bestow Her Grace upon us to help us attain the Divine.

Carlos approaches me, he is Brazilian and has a smooth golden complexion and soft brown eyes. He has the confidence of man who is comfortable in his own skin.
He knows I am a photographer and he leans in conspiratorially and whispers... “Do you want to go inside?”
My eyes light up. He places a finger to his lips and winks at me.
“Not yet. We will wait a few minutes more until it is a little bit more full.”
he says and then he wanders nonchalantly away.
The balloon in front of us is almost entirely yellow. Like a great growing beast with its mouth yawning towards us.
I look across to Carlos to make sure he hasn’t forgotten me.
“A couple more minutes.” he mouths back to me, winking again.
Carlos leads us between the basket and the network of ropes that attatches it to the balloon. He holds the ropes apart as we step through and enter the vast yellow cavern. It’s like standing in an enormous circus tent.
Stan and I both take a shot simultaneously.
“I win.” says Stan, gloating.
He has the fish-eye on his camera and I am limited by 24mm. I just can’t compete with that. There is no point us both shooting, so I let my camera drop to my side and pose for a few frames instead.
