'The church is dedicated to a French saint, little known in Britain, who was Bishop of Arras in northern Gaul around the turn of the 6th century. Vedast, who was called in Latin, Vedastus; in Norman, Vaast; in Walloon, Waast; and in French, GastSaint Vedast Vaast Vastes Fosteron, helped to restore the Christian Church in the region after decades of destruction by invading tribes during the late Roman empire and to convert Clovis, the Frankish king. Remembered for his charity, meekness and patience, he is buried at Arras cathedral.
His name in England has been corrupted from St Vaast, by way of Vastes, Fastes, Faster, Fauster and Forster to Foster, the name of the lane at the front of the church, and the reason that the official designation of the church is St Vedast-alias-Foster. St Vedast was venerated in particular by the Augustinian priors in the 12th century, and they may be responsible for the foundation of the few churches dedicated to him. Only one other church in England is currently dedicated to St Vedast, in Tathwell, Lincolnshire, a third parish in Norwich now being remembered only in a street name.
Some of the works and legends of St Vedast are celebrated in the stained glass windows of the church.'

Dedicated to St. Mary of Dunglass and built of ashlar sandstone, this chapel dates back to the 15th century.
It is dedicated to Saint Louis, also known as King Louis IX of France. The first church on the site was built in 1718; the third, under the Spanish rule, built in 1789, was raised to cathedral rank in 1793. The second St. Louis Cathedral was burned during the great fire of 1788 and was expanded and largely rebuilt and completed in the 1850s, with little of the 1789 structure remaining.

The Holocaust exhibit, officially known as the “Memorial to the Murdered Jews of Europe” (”Denkmal für die ermordeten Juden Europas” in German), is a memorial in the center of Berlin dedicated to the Jewish victims of the Holocaust. It consists of a 4.7-acre site covered with 2,711 concrete slabs, arranged in a grid pattern on a sloping field. The slabs are 7 ft 10 in long, 3 ft 1 in wide, and they vary in height from 7.9 in to 15 ft 9.0 in. They are organized in rows, 54 of them going north–south, and 87 heading east–west—at right angles but set slightly askew. An attached underground "Place of Information" holds the names of all known Jewish Holocaust victims. Building of the exhibit began on April 1, 2003, and was finished on December 15, 2004. It was inaugurated on May 10, 2005, sixty years after the end of World War II and opened to the public two days later. It is located one block south of the Brandenburg Gate.
I had never heard of the exhibit before I arrived; and because I am neither Jewish nor German, I had no idea what to expect. But I can tell you that it is one of the most somber, powerful, and moving exhibits I have ever seen. It was difficult for me to photograph — not because of any technical complexities, but because I had a difficult time keeping my hands from shaking as I took the photos.
**********************************
For the final few days of our vacation, we traveled by air from Amsterdam to Berlin — and spent about four days in the “Mitte” section of the city, quite close to what was once the dividing line between East and West Berlin; indeed, our hotel was technically in East Berlin.
We spent the first afternoon wandering around the local area, partly to see the infamous “Checkpoint Charlie” (just a few blocks from our hotel), and partly to get a sense of the buildings, the people, and the overall “look and feel” of the city. Since I spend much of my time focusing on “street photography” in New York, I did the same thing here … and aside from the German language that you’ll see on a few of the signposts, the people look much the same as they do in any other big city.
I did get a few photos of the Brandenburg Gate and the Holocaust Exhibition, and some video clips from inside the TierGarten (which I’ll upload in the next few days). I also took quite a few photos of some “street art” that was created on one of the few remaining sections of the old Berlin Wall; these two will be uploaded in the next few days.
We took a driving tour around the city one morning, including a quick circle around the old 1936 Olympic Stadium; we also had lunch in a fancy restaurant atop the old Reichstag Building, which is now (as I understand it) the home of the German legislature. But I certainly don’t feel that I saw very much of the entire city; it would be like making a whirlwind tour around a few parts of Manhattan, and then trying to claim that you’ve seen all of New York City.
As a child of the Cold War (and having been born exactly one year befor the day that Hitler committed suicide), I have always been intrigued by Berlin — and would love to go back several more times to see more of the neighborhoods, the culture, and the people. I don’t think I would ever claim to “know” Berlin in any complete sense; indeed, I don’t even feel that way about New York, after living here for 45+ years. But I could certainly learn a lot more, and I found it sufficiently interesting that I would like to learn more…
**********************************
During the first two weeks of September 2015, we took a river cruise down the Rhine River, and wrapped up the trip with a few days in Berlin. This Flickr album contains various photos from that trip …
We spent the first couple days recovering from jet-lag in Interlaken, Switzerland. This is the site of the Jungfrau and various other spectacular peaks in the Alps range — but it was so foggy that we could hardly see anything. I’ve included a couple of videos of a tram ride down the mountain, as well as some paraglider who floated down into the town park.
We then traveled to Bern, where we got on-board a Viking Cruise ship that headed north for the next several days — eventually arriving in Amsterdam, after making stops nearly every day to see ancient castles and fortresses, as well as various villages and small towns that have survived various wars, tyrants, and regimes for well over a thousand years.
From our final cruise destination in Amsterdam, we flew to Berlin — where we spent a few days at a very nice hotel that turned out to be in what was once East Berlin. Indeed, the separation between East and West Berlin, once so obvious and important, is now almost impossible for a visitor to spot. Except for some rubble, and a few small mementoes (like Checkpoint Charlie, a few blocks from our hotel), there is no obvious difference between East and West from pre-1989 days.

Karni Mata Temple is a Hindu temple dedicated to Karni Mata at Deshnoke, 30 km from Bikaner, in Rajasthan, India. It is also known as the Temple of Rats.
The temple is famous for the approximately 25,000 black rats that live, and are revered, in the temple. These holy rats are called kabbas, and many people travel great distances to pay their respects. The temple draws visitors from across the country for blessings, as well as curious tourists from around the world.
Legend has it that Laxman, son of Karni Mata , drowned in a pond in Kapil Sarovar in Kolayat Tehsil while he was attempting to drink from it. Karni Mata implored Yama, the god of death, to revive him. First refusing, Yama eventually relented, permitting Laxman and all of Karni Mata's male children to be reincarnated as rats.

WORDS:
What happened to the old man and his wife?
Them? She passed awhile back. I hear he just died recently.
What about his boat?
Oh, he hasn't lived in this house for years and years. I think he moved to Georgia or someplace. As for the boat, he used to fish from it -- but that was a long time ago. He was pretty old, you know.
Yes, I know. I knew him.
Did you know him?
Yep, and his wife, too.
She was quite a woman, I've heard.
She was. You never know what a woman will do you know. But she made a good choice -- marrying him, I mean.
It sounds as though you knew her very well.
Yes, I did. -- What happens to this house now?
I don't know, stranger. A lot of folks tried to buy this place from him before he died but he always refused. I guess this place held a lot of memories for him. Now, who knows...
Do you have the name of a local realtor?
Sure. You planning to buy this place?
I might be. I have to think that over.
I understand.
No, I don't think you really do, but that's ok. Nice chatting with you.

I felt the earth beneath my feet"

Dedicated to Saint Peter and located on the path to Compostela (and therefore a UNESCO World Heritage site), the Benedictine abbey of Moissac was founded in the 700s. According to legend, it was founded even earlier, in 506, by the freshly converted Clovis, King of the Franks, but there is no historical evidence that this ever happened. Affiliated to Cluny from 1047, it became the most powerful monastery of southwestern France and numbered over 1,000 monks —most likely including lay brothers, though.
There is so much to say about the abbey of Moissac that I will, for the most part, refer my readers to the many lengthy internet pages that describe it, not to mention of course the Quercy roman book by Zodiaque. The most famous parts are the stunning tympanum, the iconic statue of Saint Jeremy and the Year 1100 cloister with its 7- capitals, most of them historied. All of those are masterpieces fo Romanesque art and known worldwide.
The abbey was on the very first list of Historic Landmarks in 1840. It is an absolute must-see for all people interested in the Middle Ages, and we will devote quite a few days to its visit.
This photograph of the nave tells you all about why I will not be showing any more of it: the western part that you see here, together with the magnificent top room above the narthex (which I will show in great detail!), are the only Romanesque parts that remain.
The rest has been redone during the Gothic period and later (check the groin vaulting), and the whole monument is covered in that ugly and cheap painted motif so typical of the 19th century that it makes one want to cry. I will inflict no more of that on you, I promise!
"Do you know... the giants? The silver one... and the black one.
"The air itself tore open in a cataclysm over the arid lands and the giants fell through. The foreign lands phased the silver one, but they say the black one was prepared, for they took battle right away. They were not satisfied and they would fight to the end.
"They fought through the night. They were large and powerful, destroying the grounds in the wake of their battle. Their might echoed across Maanos.
"...But every battle comes to an end. The black one won at sunrise, but in an act of mercy forgave his opponent. The titans reconciled... and vanished.
"Their fate unknown, they marked the rise of the ones in the shadows. Unheard of, forgotten, solitary. Entities rose far and wide, each seeking their own ends.
"The mad scavenger of the keep: The Leech.
"Cultists dedicated to the realms of the mind: The Dreamers.
"...And the reclusive warriors of the Sanctum: The Divided.
"But... life was in peril. The dead were restless, the living refused to die, the inanimate wouldn't remain unmoving... And when natural order is not contained, wardens will rise..."

So, Monarth is turning 7 years old today. He's been my selfmoc that long and honestly it feels special to upgrade him to new heights for the occasion.
He's gone through so many changes over the years. This marks as his V12, disregarding the spin-offs I've made. It is also his third version of his warden form.
I almost completely overhauled him for this version. Some minor elements have stayed, but his aesthetic is brand new. I'm very satisfied with the inventions I made for the build: 5-digit hands, posable mouth with teeth, etc. I'm happy that I managed to give him sturdy joints, which are very often a point where I fail.
Overall, I'm very happy with his build and look, and I truly wish you enjoy him =]
Base dedicated by the team sponsor, Atarbos, to the winners of the military Pyrrhic dance contest and of the circular dance contest. The two blocs of the base supported three bronze statues of different sizes.
The relief on the left bloc [Bloc A] represent seven men arranged in two groups of similar figures, moving towards a female figure; the rightmost group is adjacent to a woman portrayed with her head turned 3/4-view to right; her left leg supports the weight, while the right one is relaxed; she wears a long-sleeved chiton, a himation draped over her left shoulder and around her torso, falling back over her bent left arm; the right hand is near to her side.
On the right, Bloc B, there is a female character taller and slimmer than the previous one: she could be the personification of Panathenaia. The woman is portrayed standing 3/4-view to the right, the weight on her left leg, the right one is relaxed. Her clothing is similar to that of the woman portrayed in the Bloc A. In front of her there are eight nude youths arranged in two groups of four. Each one has the weight on his right foot and the bent left leg pulled behind it. The youths wear a small (Attic) helmet; their slightly bent right arm, with clenched fist, is close to side; they hold a sharply foreshortened round shield on their outstretched left arm. The shields of the dancers overlap by a different degree.
Two narrow bands (ca. 3 cm.) above the reliefs of the two blocs bear an inscription reading:
Block A: νική[σας κυκλίωι χο]ρῶι.
Block B: [πυρριχ]ισταῖς νικήσας Ἄταρβος Λυ[σιστράτου. -- Κ]ηφισό[δ]ωρο[ς ἦρχε]
[IG 2.2, 3157]
Block A: Having won with a cyclic chorus.
Block B: Having won with pyrrhic dancers, Atarbos son of Ly[sistratos] (dedicated). Kephisodoros [was archon].
Thus, as indicated by the inscription, the pose and the attire of the dancers, the scene carved on the Bloc B represents the pyrrhic dance, one of the earliest contests in the "Panathenaia" . The figures on the Bloc A are harder to identify. According to the inscription carved on the base, some scholars suggest that they are the participants in the "Dithyramb", a tribal contest first instituted in Athens as a tribal event at Great "Dionysia" in 509/508.
