Normal people with extraordinary lifestyles

Along with smile and the gloomy, here life has its own rhyme, has its own colour.

Time passed by, humanity changed along with its history...

But these people remained here tolerating the hardest truth of existences

..........its their story of extraordinary existences.

 

Sakharibazar, Old Dhaka. A very interesting place for all of us to visit. Culture and customs of old Dhaka are the tribute to the ancient history of Bangladesh. Peoples still living in 100 years old building from generations after generations. With the reflection of their religious beauty Old Dhaka attracts peoples from here and abroad.

 

Shakhari Bazaar is one of the oldest mohallas (a traditional neighbourhood) in Puran Dhaka (Old Dhaka), located near the intersection of Islampur Road and Nawabpur Road;the two main arteries of the old city and only a block away from the Buriganga River. Shakhari Bazaar stretches along a narrow lane, lined with thin slices of richly decorated brick buildings, built during the late Mughal or Colonial period. Despite rampant modifications, accretion, extension over time, even redevelopment, many still bear the testimony of a rich tradition.

 

Shakhari Bazaar is the manifestation of the irrational policies, lack of adequate development control rules and distorted legal framework, all of which have left their indelible mark on this precious little mohalla that shares a long history of more than 400 years with Dhaka city itself.The history of Shakhari Bazaar goes back to the pre-Mughal days if not earlier. The first mention of Puran Dhaka can be found in the writings of Mirza Nathan, the general turned historian, who traveled with Subahdar Islam Khan. He mentioned Puran Dhaka, as the area between Dholai Khal and Buriganga river covering Shakhari Bazaar, Tanti Bazaar, Bangla Bazaar, Lakhsmi Bazaar, Bangla Bazaar, Kamar Nagar, Sutar Nagar, Goala Nagar, etc. Each mohalla belonged to separate communities depending on their craft and trade. The influences of the Mughal vocabulary in the planning of the spaces are literally evident in the use of Persian names to identify different spaces..

Second life - Wasted Night

 

'THE CRYSTAL WORLD' is a novel by J. G. BALLARD, published in 1966.

"The main character is Edward Sanders, an English medical doctor, who arrives to the river port of Port Matarre, in Gabon. From here he tries to reach a leprosy treatment facility where his friends, Max and Suzanne Clair, live. Soon, however, he starts to recognize that a mysterious phenomenon is crystallizing the jungle along with its living creatures. The same phenomenon is reported to be present also in the Florida everglades and in the Pripyat Marshes (Soviet Union) as well. Scientific explanations of the phenomenon are provided within the book: however, Ballard offers mostly an interior and psychological perspective about it, directly through Sanders' experiences. Several facts, furthermore, remains unexplained: for example, the ability of jewels to liquefy the crystals. The crystals also have the property to keep objects and beings in a suspended state of existence. Many passages deal with this characteristic, pointing out its capability to stop time and life."

My head is currently spinning and my heart is soaring (and my body is catching up on sleep when my brain allows it). Life has been full of adventures lately, with more to come. Travelling down and up the west coast, meeting so many kind and beautiful people whom I believe will be lifelong friends, witnessing the beauty that is in creation and the mountains, valleys, fields, forests, ocean, sun, fog, and starry night skies... Life is a blessing, friends. All I want to do is just hold tight to this positive mindset, chase the opportunities being presented, love absolutely everyone I meet, view life and its ups and downs as an adventure, attempt to ignore (or face) my fears, and trust in something bigger through it all.

The first news of which has its existence dates back to 978. Around the church of Sant Marti, as documented by the year 1088 began to wake up the first houses in this picturesque town that even today retains all its medieval charm.

Historically, work in the field was the main dedication of its people; particular importance was conreo of grapes, from the eighteenth century shifted more traditional forms of agriculture. This was a particularly arduous task given the characteristics of the mountainous terrain, settled in part by building jars at the foot of vineyards, which were used for the storage of must and grapes. Already into the nineteenth century, the phylloxera conditioned conreo and resulted in a significant decline in population. Another important task, until mid-twentieth century, was the development of charcoal, until such time as the electricity found their disappearance. Since then, its people were devoted to another kind of work in line with the changing times. It set up a textile factory in the early twentieth century, which was in operation until the year 1964. Logically, closing it was important socio-economic consequences on the lives of the people, determining the migration of population towards the industrial cities or to neighboring towns. Since then, the physiognomy of Mura se ha ido transforming into a large number of people with second homes, laying the groundwork for a tradition tourist potential. Precisely for the new work and revenue earned from tourism, was very relevant to the creation of the Natural Park Sant Llorenç del Munt i l'Obac, in 1972. Since then increased the number of tourists and visitors. Nobody is aware that, as in many other municipalities of Catalunya, tourism could ensure the future of the people so that asentare solidly its core population.

Christian Song | Praise the God Full of Authority | "Only by Fearing God Can Evil Be Shunned"

 

www.holyspiritspeaks.org/videos/fearing-god-can-evil-be-s...

 

Introduction

God’s disposition is majestic and wrathful.

He’s not a lamb to be slaughtered by anyone.

He is not a puppet, played by anyone as they like.

Nor is He air, ordered around by people.

If you really believe in God

you should have a heart that fears God.

You should know that God’s essence is something that cannot be offended.

Offense may be caused by a word or thought,

a doctrine or theory, or some vile activity.

It may be caused by some mild behavior which is acceptable by morality.

But once you offend God, you have lost your chance to be saved,

and your end days will come soon.

This is something fearful indeed.

If you don’t know God can’t be offended,

you may not fear Him, but will offend Him always.

You cannot fear God if you don’t know how,

nor follow His path to fear God and shun evil.

Once you become aware in your heart and recognize that God is inviolable,

then you will know exactly what it means to fear God and shun evil.

Once you become aware in your heart and recognize that God is inviolable,

then you will know exactly what it means to fear God and shun evil.

You should know that God’s essence

is something that cannot be offended, cannot be offended.

Offense may be caused by a word or thought,

a doctrine or theory, or some vile activity.

If you really believe in God’s existence,

you should have a heart that fears God.

Iguazú Falls or Iguaçu Falls are waterfalls of the Iguazu River on the border of the Argentine province of Misiones and the Brazilian state of Paraná. Together, they make up the largest waterfall in the world. The falls divide the river into the upper and lower Iguazu. The Iguazu River rises near the heart of the city of Curitiba. For most of its course, the river flows through Brazil; however, most of the falls are on the Argentine side. Below its confluence with the San Antonio River, the Iguazu River forms the border between Argentina and Brazil.

 

The name "Iguazú" comes from the Guarani or Tupi words "y" [ɨ], meaning "water", and "ûasú "[waˈsu], meaning "big". Legend has it that a deity planned to marry a beautiful woman named Naipí, who fled with her mortal lover Tarobá in a canoe. In a rage, the deity sliced the river, creating the waterfalls and condemning the lovers to an eternal fall.

The first European to record the existence of the falls was the Spanish Conquistador Álvar Núñez Cabeza de Vaca in 1541.

The term “depth theology” was coined especially by the Jewish philosopher of religion Abraham Heschel. He used it to denote a kind of pretheological common ground of religion to which one must return in interreligious dialogue. He compared theology and depth theology in a manner reminiscent of our distinction between the act of faith (fides qua) and the content or object of faith (fides quae):

-Notes on Chapter 2, The Afternoon of Christianity The Courage to Change, Tomáš Halík

 

“Theology is like sculpture, depth theology is like music. Theology is in the books, depth theology is in the hearts. The former is doctrine, the latter an event. Theologies divide us; depth theology unites us.”

-Abraham Heschel, Insecurity of Freedom: Essays on Human Existence (New York: Schocken Books, 1972), 119.

This building dates from 1746 although there had been a chapel on the site since 1662. 2 storeys red brick. Half-hipped tiled roof and eaves cornice. 3 cambered mullions and transoms. Wide doorcase with fluted pilasters containing 2 6-panel moulded doors with a pediment over. Gallery inside and contemporary pulpit.

 

Although the building looks plain, even severe, from the outside, the timber-framed interior is of considerable architectural interest. The painting on the wall by David Embry depicts the visit of Benjamin Franklin, one of the stalwarts of the American Declaration of Independence, who in 1774 is believed to have visited the Meeting House with his friend Joseph Priestley, the celebrated Unitarian minister and scientist who discovered the existence of oxygen as a constituent of the air. (Priestley was later obliged to flee to America because of his radical views.) If you get near enough to the painting you can read what is written on the hymn-book in the picture. The famous visit is commemorated by a plaque on the front of the church donated by the Tenterden Trust.

This is possibly the only former Peoples Drug in existence that is still a drug store and has its original lighting, windows and entrances. Unfortunately the disco-tastic interior did not survive. :-) This store opened with the mall in 1974, became a Revco in 1993, then converted to CVS in 1997. I don't know of any other CVS stores in enclosed malls in Southwest Virginia, either.

__________

 

University Mall is a shopping center in Blacksburg, Virginia adjacent to the Virginia Tech campus at the intersection of Prices Fork Road and University City Boulevard. Opened in 1974, the original enclosed mall contained about 250,000 square feet of retail space and was anchored by Woolco and Roanoke-based Heironimus, with Kroger on an outparcel across the street.

 

During the 1970s and much of the 1980s, this was the hottest retail address in the New River Valley. The center featured a strong mix of regional and local tenants including Mills Fabric, Ritz Camera, H&M Shoes, John Norman (menswear), Sidney’s, The Sickle Moon, Dana (all three were women’s apparel stores), Printer’s Ink bookstore and Peoples Drug. Even Woolco’s closure in 1983 didn’t cripple the place; Roses quickly moved in to replace it.

 

What did take this place down was the opening of the New River Valley Mall in neighboring Christansburg in 1988. Though the anchors stayed in place, the small shops inside the mall largely closed or moved.

 

In the early 1990s, both anchors folded and Virginia Tech took over their spaces for various university services and a branch of the University Bookstore. During this time, People Drug became Revco and then CVS and the mall interior slowly filled back in with various local businesses.

 

In 2004, the mall was sold to a group of local businessmen and plans were made to eventually donate the property to the Virginia Tech Foundation, the mall’s primary tenant. During this time, the interior of the mall received its only renovation. Its tile and concrete floors were carpeted. The globes of its pole lights were changed, and the mall was painted. Two large mobiles were placed over its pair of fountains, which have were thoroughly cleaned. On the exterior, the south end of the mall was expanded and heavily renovated with a parking garage and multistory office building added next to the intersection of Prices Fork Road and University City Boulevard, along with an outparcel for Panera Bread.

 

Though the center is almost fully tenanted now, the interior mall remains a well-preserved relic of 1970s retail design. Many storefronts are still original and substantially all of the interior décor from 1974 is still here. Even the CVS is still here, largely unchanged from its days as a Peoples Drug.

Gümbet Beach.

 

The beach is the reason for Gümbet's existence. A curving kilometre or so of sand that is lined the whole way with hotels, bars & restaurants, all of whom put out sunbeds & umbrellas that are free to use as long as you keep drinking.

 

Waiters run up and down the beach to serve you while a little further out, grown men in lobster pink are falling off banana boats & ringos.

 

The more adventurous can try windsurfing, jet skiing & paragliding. There is an official topless beach a short distance out of town (not normally permitted in Turkey).

The Cistercian monastery of St. Urban was founded in 1194 by monks of the Abbey of La Petite Alsace with support oberaargauischer free noble families. The monastery developed in the course of its existence to the religious and intellectual, stately and economic center of the border zone of the cantons of Bern, Solothurn, Aargau and Lucerne. Since the medieval monastery despite multiple conversions and extensions to claims of the monks no longer satisfied with the time, left the religious in the first half of the 18th century by the architect Franz Beer Voralberger plan from scratch and build a new monastery. She is now one of the most impressive examples of Baroque and Cistercian architecture and culture in Switzerland.
