Tulum (Spanish pronunciation: [tuˈlum], Yucatec Maya: Tulu'um) is the site of a pre-Columbian Mayan walled city which served as a major port for Coba, in the Mexican state of Quintana Roo] The ruins are situated on 12-meter (39 ft) tall cliffs along the east coast of the Yucatán Peninsula on the Caribbean Sea in the state of Quintana Roo, Mexico.Tulum was one of the last cities built and inhabited by the Maya; it was at its height between the 13th and 15th centuries and managed to survive about 70 years after the Spanish began occupying Mexico. Old World diseases brought by the Spanish settlers appear to have resulted in very high fatalities, disrupting the society, and eventually causing the city to be abandoned.[citation needed] One of the best-preserved coastal Maya sites, Tulum is today a popular site for tourists.
“I'm not going down on my knees begging you to adore me
Can't you see it's misery and torture for me?
When I'm misunderstood, try as hard as you can
I've tried as hard as I could
To make you see
How important it is for me
Here is a plea from my heart to you
Nobody knows me as well as you do
You know how hard it is for me to shake the disease
That takes hold of my tongue in situations like these
Understand me…”

The daylily is an amazingly low-maintenance perennial. It’s virtually disease-free, pest-free, and drought-resistant; it’s also not picky about soil quality. Plus, the flower has a long bloom period! Here’s how to plant and care for daylilies in your garden, as well as how to easily propagate them for more plants!
About Daylilies
The daylily’s botanical name, Hemerocallis, comes from the Greek hemera (“day”) and kallos (“beauty”). The name is appropriate since each flower lasts only one day! However, each scape has 12 to 15 buds on it, and a mature plant can have 4 to 6 scapes, which is why the flower seems to bloom continuously.
Originally from Asia, these plants have adapted so well that many of us think of them as natives. Imagine the excitement of a 16th-century explorer cruising the Orient and finding these gorgeous plants! European gardeners welcomed daylilies into their gardens, and when early colonists sailed for the New World, daylilies made the crossing with them.
Despite their name, daylilies are not “true lilies” and grow from fleshy roots. True lilies grow from onion-like bulbs and are of the genus Lilium, as are Asiatic and Oriental lilies. In the case of daylilies, leaves grow from a crown, and the flowers form on leafless stems—called “scapes”—which rise above the foliage.
There are thousands of beautiful daylilies to choose from. Combine early, midseason, late blooming varieties, and repeat bloomers to have daylilies in flower from late spring through the first frost of fall. If you see a height listed alongside a daylily variety, this refers to the length of the scape. Some can reach 6 feet tall!

These Daylilies were photographed at Pashley Manor Gardens. At Pashley you will discover 11 acres of beautiful borders and vistas – the culmination of a lifetime of passion for gardening, an appetite for beauty and an admiration of the tradition of the English Country garden. These graceful gardens, on the border of Sussex and Kent, are family owned and maintained – visitors often express delight at the attention to detail displayed throughout and the intimate, peaceful atmosphere.
All the ingredients of the English Country Garden are present – sweeping herbaceous borders, ha-ha, well maintained lawns, box hedges, espaliered rose walk, historic walled garden, inspiring kitchen garden, venerable trees and the Grade I listed house as a backdrop. The gardens are a haven for wildlife – bees, butterflies and small birds as well as moor hens, ducks and a black swan. Then, of course, the plants! Borders overflowing with perennials and annuals – the look changing through the seasons, but always abundantly filled, and each garden ‘room’ planted in a different colour theme.
Pashley is also renowned for fantastic displays of tulips, roses and dahlias. Our annual Tulip Festival features more than 48,000 tulips this year! During Special Rose Week over a hundred varieties of rose swathe the walls, climb obelisks and bloom in flower beds. Then in late summer our Dahlia Days event transforms the gardens once more with bountiful, brightly coloured dahlias in every border and pot.
Add to all this a Café and Terrace with excellent garden views, serving delicious homemade lunches, scones and cakes; Sculpture and Art Exhibitions; a Gift Shop with Plant Sales; and a friendly, knowledgeable team waiting to welcome you, and the recipe for a wonderful day out is complete.

This year has been particularly smokey in southeast Utah. Fires belching smoke from California, Arizona, Colorado, and within Utah have kept us indoors several days. Last night as we drove in to Moab for groceries and pears to can, we noticed a fire crawling up the side of South Mountain, 3 miles from our house. It wasn't raging and the wind was fairly calm coming from the southwest which was a good sign. It was also burning up an alluvial fan that burned 7 years ago so there wasn't much fuel. There are still some smoke coming from the steep canyons, but no active fire is visible. I am thankful for my husband who has worked tirelessly the last couple of years to chop and mow a defensible space around our house amidst the dry, dry grasses and sagebrush. Sending out a global hug to all those who have been impacted by the disasters of flood, fire, earthquakes, and disease.
If my last Flickr photo - the owl - was the sublime, then this can only be the grotesque.

Avian flu is taking a heavy toll on populations of seabirds around the British Isles. I was fortunate to make a trip to the Shetland Isles for GUVS and to have a small amount of time for photography before the return ferry trip. Reports of affected colonies of seabirds in the Firth of Forth are very concerning. It is difficult to see how these beautiful creatures will ride out this disease.

Yeah, now the work force is disgusted, downs tools, walks
Innocence is injured, experience just talks
Everyone seeks damages, everyone agrees that
These are classic symptoms of a monetary squeeze
On ITV and BBC they talk about the curse
Philosophy is useless, theology is worse
History boils over, there's an economics freeze
Sociologists invent words that mean "industrial disease"
Insieme al mio fotoclub stamattina siamo stati a visitare Cancelli frazione di Foligno, provincia di Perugia, in Umbria, centro Italia, e i dintorni della montagna praticamente spopolata. A Cancelli la famiglia Cancelli, nella sua linea ereditaria maschile, storicamente ha la capacità di guarire dalla sciatica, capacità guaritive trasmesse nientemeno che dagli apostoli Ss. Pietro e Paolo.
Together with my photoclub this morning we went to visit Cancelli fraction of Foligno, province of Perugia, in Umbria, central Italy, and the surroundings of the practically depopulated mountain. In Cancelli the Cancelli family, in its male hereditary line, historically has the ability to heal from sciatic nerve disease, healing abilities transmitted by none other than the apostles Sts. Peter and Paul.
... and there it was, the spreader injector of TBE, the Lyme disease marauder, the undoubtedly worst forest and meadow summer enemy we humans face during the summer half year...
The tick!!!
Patiently waiting in nature's vegetation with outstretched limbs for us prey to pass so they can attack and penetrate our skin where they unleash their armies of ill-tempered bacteria and viruses into our relatively fragile body.

Vaccinate yourselves!!!
World Parkinson’s Disease Day marks the birthday of Dr. J Parkinson.
Dr. Parkinson first described the disease in “An Essay on the Shaking Palsy”, he described a pattern of lessened muscular power, involuntary tremulous motion, even if these are supported.
There is at tendency to bend the body forwards, and to involuntarily switch from a walking to a running pace, while the sense and intellect deteriorate.
On this day there are efforts made to increase the public awareness of this terrible disease, as well as all the good works put forth by the worlds organizations dedicated to eradicating this disease. There are activities to promote this the entire world over, and the opportunity to participate is open to any and all who want to help in this effort.

La Giornata mondiale malattia di Parkinson è un evento che si tiene ogni anno l’11 aprile per sensibilizzare e far conoscere una malattia degenerativa che in Italia ha già colpito 230mila persone.
L’obiettivo di questa Giornata è coinvolgere sempre più persone nella lotta contro il Parkinson e dare un contributo alla ricerca di una cura per questa malattia.
L’11 aprile è la data di nascita del dottor James Parkinson, che nel 1817 aveva pubblicato il “Saggio sulla paralisi agitante”. Grazie al suo lavoro il Parkinson è stato riconosciuto come patologia medica a livello internazionale.
La prima Giornata mondiale del Parkinson si è tenuta l’11 aprile 1997 ed è stata organizzata dalla European Parkinson Disease e dalla Organizzazione mondiale della sanità.

Bruno Lauzi e la sua malattia
La sua lettera a Mister Parkinson
Egregio Signore, non è con piacere che le scrivo questa lettera, ma d'altra parte avrei dovuto parlarle a quattr'occhi, affrontarla di persona, sopportare quel suo subdolo modo di fare che è quanto c'è di peggio per far perdere la pazienza anche ad un santo, figuriamoci a me.
Le scrivo, come può notare, col computer, perché la mia calligrafia s'è fatta illeggibile e così minuscola che i miei collaboratori devono usare la lente d'ingrandimento per riuscire a decifrarla…
Perché le scrivo? È presto detto: io ho superato con una certa disinvoltura l'imbarazzo che lei (l'ho scritto senza maiuscola, non la merita) mi ha creato chiedendo pubblicamente la mia mano ed ovviamente ottenendola. Convivere con un ufficiale inglese a riposo, già condannato nel Punjab per ripetuti tentativi di violenza neurologica su qualunque essere di qualunque specie (le cose si vengono a sapere, come vede…) non è stato facile, la mia è una famiglia è all’antica e non ha apprezzato.
MA ORA LEI STA ESAGERANDO, signore, glielo devo dire. Quando è troppo è troppo, e il troppo stroppia! C'è un proverbio arabo che dice: «Se hai un amico di miele non lo leccare tutto», INVECE LEI S'APPROFITTA D'OGNI RILASSATEZZA, DELL'ABBASSAMENTO DELLA GUARDIA NELLA BATTAGLIA QUOTIDIANA, ci proibisce di pensare ad altro, contando sulla superficialità con cui io ho affrontato l’insorgere del male… si sa, gli artisti sono farfalloni incoscienti… no, vecchio caprone, non le sarà facile, né con me né con gli altri, la Resistenza è cominciata. Perché, vede, io e i miei fratelli e sorelle malati abbiamo tante cose da fare, una vita da portare avanti meglio di così!
D'ora in avanti prometto che starò più attento ai consigli dei miei dottori, e che mi impegnerò maggiormente nell’aiutarli nella raccolta dei fondi necessari per la ricerca. Anzi sul tema della solidarietà mi ci gioco una mano, la mano che, pitturata e serigrafata fa da piedistallo ad una poesia contro di lei, colonnello dei miei stivali, funzionando da incentivo a dare... già, poiché a chiunque faccia un'offerta per la ricerca verrà inviata «LA MANO» come ricordo e memento…
Siamo in tanti, tante mani si leveranno contro di lei e cercheranno di restituirle colpo su colpo fino a quando non riusciranno ad acchiapparla per la collottola e mandarla all’Inferno cui appartiene, bestiaccia immonda, sterco del demonio, nostra croce senza delizie… Parola mia, di questo omino per molti un po' buffo, per altri un po' patetico, ma che vive il sogno di poterla, un giorno non lontano, prendere a schiaffi. A mano ferma. Mi stia male e a non rivederla.

Ciao Bruno la "bestiaccia immonda" ti ha portato via ma tu resterai sempre nei nostri cuori e continueremo con passione a portare avanti la tua battaglia.
John Moore was a good friend from Nelson Camera Club.
He had Parkinson's Disease and when he eventually had to go into a care home, I used to take him out for a drive a couple of times a week to visit his favourite spots.
This tree was one he particularly liked.
He thought it would make a great 365 project.
I agree!
Alas, it is a little too far from home to visit every day.
It would be over 6,000 miles to complete the job, but I hope this one pleases him as he watches down on us all from his little cloud on the other side.
RIP John Moore
Thinking of you mate!

Alzheimer's Disease is often referred to as ' the long goodbye '.
It is Alzheimer's Awareness Day here tomorrow. This is my humble offering, dedicated to those who know and perhaps love someone suffering from this cruel disease.
The Long Goodbye
You see my face, you see a stranger there,
I put the rosary in your hands,
I brush your hair.
I fix your bed and plump the pillows
and you smile;
‘Are you the Doctor?’ no Dad, it’s me.
And we continue on,
to be,
the best that we can be.
Another day,
another chapter in the Long Goodbye.

SALVATION THROUGH FAITH IN CHRIST JESUS ALONE!
❤️❤️ IT'S ALL JESUS AND NONE OF OURSELVES! ❤️❤️
Matthew Chapter 10
1 He called his twelve disciples to him and gave them authority to drive out evil spirits and to heal every disease and sickness.
2 These are the names of the twelve apostles: first, Simon (who is called Peter) and his brother Andrew; James son of Zebedee, and his brother John;3 Philip and Bartholomew; Thomas and Matthew the tax collector; James son of Alphaeus, and Thaddaeus;4 Simon the Zealot and Judas Iscariot, who betrayed him.
5 These twelve Jesus sent out with the following instructions: "Do not go among the Gentiles or enter any town of the Samaritans.6 Go rather to the lost sheep of Israel.7 As you go, preach this message: 'The kingdom of heaven is near.'8 Heal the sick, raise the dead, cleanse those who have leprosy, drive out demons. Freely you have received, freely give.9 Do not take along any gold or silver or copper in your belts;10 take no bag for the journey, or extra tunic, or sandals or a staff; for the worker is worth his keep.
11 "Whatever town or village you enter, search for some worthy person there and stay at his house until you leave.12 As you enter the home, give it your greeting.13 If the home is deserving, let your peace rest on it; if it is not, let your peace return to you.14 If anyone will not welcome you or listen to your words, shake the dust off your feet when you leave that home or town.15 I tell you the truth, it will be more bearable for Sodom and Gomorrah on the day of judgment than for that town.16 I am sending you out like sheep among wolves. Therefore be as shrewd as snakes and as innocent as doves.
17 "Be on your guard against men; they will hand you over to the local councils and flog you in their synagogues.18 On my account you will be brought before governors and kings as witnesses to them and to the Gentiles.19 But when they arrest you, do not worry about what to say or how to say it. At that time you will be given what to say,20 for it will not be you speaking, but the Spirit of your Father speaking through you.
21 "Brother will betray brother to death, and a father his child; children will rebel against their parents and have them put to death.22 All men will hate you because of me, but he who stands firm to the end will be saved.23 When you are persecuted in one place, flee to another. I tell you the truth, you will not finish going through the cities of Israel before the Son of Man comes.
24 "A student is not above his teacher, nor a servant above his master.25 It is enough for the student to be like his teacher, and the servant like his master. If the head of the house has been called Beelzebub, how much more the members of his household!
26 "So do not be afraid of them. There is nothing concealed that will not be disclosed, or hidden that will not be made known.27 What I tell you in the dark, speak in the daylight; what is whispered in your ear, proclaim from the roofs.28 Do not be afraid of those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. Rather, be afraid of the One who can destroy both soul and body in hell.29 Are not two sparrows sold for a penny? Yet not one of them will fall to the ground apart from the will of your Father.30 And even the very hairs of your head are all numbered.31 So don't be afraid; you are worth more than many sparrows.
32 "Whoever acknowledges me before men, I will also acknowledge him before my Father in heaven.33 But whoever disowns me before men, I will disown him before my Father in heaven.
34 "Do not suppose that I have come to bring peace to the earth. I did not come to bring peace, but a sword.35 For I have come to turn
"'a man against his father,
a daughter against her mother,
a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law-- 36 a man's enemies will be the members of his own household.'
37 "Anyone who loves his father or mother more than me is not worthy of me; anyone who loves his son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me;38 and anyone who does not take his cross and follow me is not worthy of me.39 Whoever finds his life will lose it, and whoever loses his life for my sake will find it.
40 "He who receives you receives me, and he who receives me receives the one who sent me.41 Anyone who receives a prophet because he is a prophet will receive a prophet's reward, and anyone who receives a righteous man because he is a righteous man will receive a righteous man's reward.42 And if anyone gives even a cup of cold water to one of these little ones because he is my disciple, I tell you the truth, he will certainly not lose his reward." (Matthew 10)
So you'll KNOW, and not think you're to bad for God to love. The Christian LIFE isn't about how good WE are, because NONE of us are! It's about how GOOD JESUS IS! Because JESUS LOVES US, so much he died in our place and took the punishment for all of our sins on himself. The wages of sin is DEATH, and Jesus died that death for YOU and I. The good news is there no more punishment for sin left, we were and are all born forgive as a result of the crucifixion of God himself on the cross that took away the sins of the whole world. All we have to do is believe it, and put your Faith in the finished work of Jesus Christ. That my friends is REAL UNCONDITIONAL LOVE! YOU ARE LOVED. ❤️ ✝️ ❤️

If you say the word, "vaccine," in the United States today, many of us will turn off our thinking brain and revert to slogans we read on social media.
When you see a compound femur fracture, you recognize the harm. There's a bone fragment sticking out of this person's leg. It may be less visible but people who treat infectious diseases know the harm caused. They see patients every day who would have been better off if they had not contracted the disease. Medical treatment costs money. There's lost productivity. There are medical bankrupcies. Poor management of infectious disease is expensive. Indirectly, we all pay for these costs.
I claim, vaccine availability is part of a road that leads from developing country status to industrialized nation status. On the developing country side, where vacines cannot be had, you face higher mortality rates. Your grandchildren will die preventable deaths. We'll miss them a lot. They won't grow up to be friends and to be the great talents who solve our nation's problems. On the industrialized side, fewer grandchildren die. If you willfully go to the developing country side, it's an uphill battle to get back to 2024.

I’ve had this image sitting on the shelf for a while now. I had a theme in mind when I set up the shot but there is something about this image that has just not been working for me.
I like the colours in the sky. I like the smooth but slightly rippled finish on the water. I even like the turbines and I’ve deliberately kept in the power masts and the stacks from the refinery over the hill but I can’t get my head around that grungy mess of a pier. I’m so accustomed to trying to keep all the elements in an image balanced and appealing, like a good landscape should be, that this just doesn't seem right but you know if you change your perspective then interesting can work too. I started to think about the juxtaposition of the beautiful colour of the sky and water being put in comparison to the desolation of the broken pier. If you think about the image as an impression of industrial decay amidst the beauty of nature then I begin to see the appeal.
Please feel free to give me some feedback if you think the combination works or is just a bunch of pretentious crap. I’m thick skinned and I won’t be upset if you want to be honest. Well, hopefully not too upset…

What there is to say? I love medicine, i love the ability to heal, to aid people, the knowledge about human body and the responsability in taking desitions that can change a person's life.I just enjoy Med School, I want to be a better doctor, i WANT to, i dont feel obligated to be one... and that feels good.
