On Tuesday 20th October, Pretty Stylish London hosted a fundraising event entitled The Big Pink Pamper Party, in aid of Cancer Research UK and to highlight Breast Cancer Awareness month. We managed to raise a very respectable £425 for charity and photos from the night will be posted shortly.
It was a fantastic night of cocktails, cupcakes, manicures and brilliant prizes, not to mention a rather indulgent goody bag of treats. Bloggers and Tweeters came out to support the cause and with the help of key sponsors, the night was a great success.
The event was sponsored jointly by Glam Media and Precious Magazine, whilst the pampering treatments were provided courtesy of The Simply Fab Company:

The Primary Section had a special assembly entitled -" Dubai Modern High joins World Malaria Day" where students were briefed about causes of Malaria and the need to support this cause.
All students and teachers sported the blue ribbon.
The students of grade 4 were given an assignment over the week end - cross linked with science [ Mini Beasts - Mosquitoes ]
A display board has also been put up in the Primary Section having the necessary information about the challenge.
World Malaria Day Report - Senior School
The students of Dubai Modern High School visited the village of Ambedkar Nagar, in the Indian state of Tamil Nadu, during the month of March, as part of their commitment and resolve to protect the environment against degradation. However, when the students ventured into the village, they realized that the lack of rainwater harvesting was only one of their problems; they were also struggling with the spread of vector-borne diseases such as Malaria, typhoid and cholera. Improperly dumped waste, clogged drains and inadequate sanitation had led to the breeding of mosquitoes which led to the local residents being afflicted with malaria and other extremely serious diseases.
As part of Modern's steadfastness and commitment to the project and the villagers concerned, the students also undertook measures to alleviate the local inhabitants of their struggle against the deadly disease. The students attended a water literacy program organized by the local NGO, Dhan Foundation with which we were collaborating, and worked with the villagers in helping them understand the causes, symptoms and measures to reduce the spread of malaria.
As the photographs are too big to be sent by email, so we've put them in Powerpoint files and uploaded them on a personal server so you can download it from there.

World of Art Dolls "Anthrogon" by Zlata's fantasy dolls
Available as a one-of-a-kind original artist's doll for your collection!
*** She is based on my dolls stories from World of Dolls "Anthrogon" on my serie of dolls entitled "Gothic Forest dolls" in which Black Snake (her name is Nadine). As a child, the snakes gave her a beautiful name Venomous snake - Nadine. But it so happened that no how to wear this glorious name, nor how to be snakes, they have not learned it, because sooner have died. Left without tribal support, Venomous snake itself, as it could, to explore the world. Snake realized that with her name she did not take root in society. So she changed her name to Nadine, and began to call a harmless snake. But the origin was more difficult: the name was replaced and all, and physiology are not interchangeable. Nadine had to dress in a shiny black dress. So even from a distance it looked like a Noble lady.
Description:
Snake Nadine is totally handmade made by me with love and lots of care.
She is height 10.24 inches (26 cm) from her base to the top of her head (with bonnet) and in length 11.02 (28 cm).
Doll with hand painted eyes, face.
Her form is of wire armature - movable except the head, hands, feet.
Her hair is from goat wool. It has been hand dyed with black.
Her body is sewn from fabric with sequins and golden fabric as a snakeskin.
Outfit:
She was designed in the Victorian Gothic style.
Bonnet sewn from black lace and golden fabric with antique beads from Czech glass.
Bonnet is removed!
She is self-balancing and can stand on its tail without aid of a doll stand.

Pana-vue Superdia slide GB2191 entitled Torquay, Torre Abbey Gardens. Slides like these were sold in sets of three during the 1960s. Originally in colour, this has totally faded over the years.
From The Guardian, 13 December 2023: "Palm trees that have welcomed visitors to the “English riviera” for a century have been cut down without warning in an act that residents have described as “pure vandalism”.
The felling of 40 trees in Torquay, Devon, has provoked a furious public outcry and accusations that the council has wrought a “soul-destroying”, “total destruction” of the seaside front.
The beloved palms that some local people say are synonymous with the seaside town – the hapless hotel manager Basil Fawlty even boasted about them in an episode of Fawlty Towers – have stood in the Italian Gardens, which look out over Torre Abbey Sands, since they were first planted in 1924.
But dozens of them have been chopped down to their stumps without consultation or notice by Torbay council as part of the restoration of the gardens ahead of its 100th anniversary next year.
The council has promised that the garden will be transformed over the winter and into the spring, with more planting scheduled. It said the palms had showed signs of significant degradation in the past 20 years and work was being carried out by its contractors to upgrade the site.
Public consultation in 2019 identified the Italian Gardens as a priority for restoration, but the scheme was delayed due to the pandemic"

Roxy Music are an English art rock group formed in 1971 by Bryan Ferry, who became the group's lead vocalist and chief songwriter. The other members are Phil Manzanera (guitar), Andy Mackay (saxophone and oboe) and Paul Thompson (drums and percussion). Former members include Brian Eno (synthesizer and "treatments"), and Eddie Jobson (synthesizer and violin). Although the band took a break from group activities in 1983, they reunited for a concert tour in 2001, and have toured together intermittently since that time.
Roxy Music attained popular and critical success in the UK, Europe and Australia during the 1970s and early 1980s, beginning with their debut album, Roxy Music (1972).[1] The band was highly influential, as leading proponents of the more experimental, musically sophisticated element of glam, as well as a significant influence on early English punk music. They also provided a model for many New Wave acts and the experimental electronic groups of the early 1980s. The group is distinguished by their visual and musical sophistication and their preoccupation with style and glamour.[2] Ferry and co-founding member Eno have also had influential solo careers, the latter becoming one of the most significant record producers and collaborators of the late 20th century.
Rolling Stone magazine ranked Roxy Music #98 on its "The Immortals – 100 The Greatest Artists of All Time" list.[3]
A new studio album, which would have been their ninth, began recording in 2005. It would have been Roxy's first record with Brian Eno since 1973, who wrote two songs for it as well as played keyboards.[4] However, Bryan Ferry eventually confirmed that material from these sessions would be released as a Ferry solo album, with Eno playing on "a couple of tracks,"[5] and that he doesn't think they'll record as Roxy Music again.[6] Subsequently, this was confirmed by the announcement of a solo Bryan Ferry album, entitled Olympia.

A cultural event entitled “Follow Georgia” featuring an exhibition of work by contemporary Georgian artist Ms. Tamara Kvesitadze and a music performance by ethno-jazz band “Shin” was held on the sidelines of the Assemblies of WIPO Member States, which met from October 2-11, 2017.
Ms. Tamara Kvesitadze’s works take roots in antiquity and mythology as well as in surrealism, which successfully combine art and construction. The music of the Shin smoothly combines Georgian folk melodies with jazz, which is the sound of Georgia’s musical encounter with the world.
WIPO co-organized the event with the Government of Georgia to mark the 25th Anniversary of the National Intellectual Property Center of Georgia – SAKPATENTI.

This installation entitled “Unlimited Talk and Text” challenges us to face the reality of the times we live in. A 10ft (3m) paper mâchéd tree sculpted with pages from found phone books is reincarnated again to its natural posture reminding us of the past we once lived in while at the same time reminding us of the future that is ahead of us. The phonebook is no longer a necessity as technology advances us into a paperless society putting this species of ‘staple household items’ on the endangered list while the process of making these books also leads to putting species of trees, forests, habitats etc. on the endangered list as well.
The performance series, entitled The Market of Toys, was created specifically for Times Square. It is composed of four distinctive minimalistic single-element actions representative of Akademia Ruchu’s 40 years of experience working in the public realm. These austere, participatory interventions will simultaneously contrast and emphasize the vibrant character of Times Square and its multitude of visitors. The performances will be complemented by videos chronicling some of the collective’s seminal performances. These 30 second videos will play every 5 minutes on 10 CEMUSA newspaper kiosks located between 34th-48th Streets. A printed exhibition in the form of a newspaper documenting Academia Ruchu’s deep history of socially and politically driven public performances will be handed out to visitors.
Akademia Ruchu (The Academy of Movement) has been a political sounding board in Poland since its establishment in 1973 in Warsaw. Operating at the juncture of theater, performances, political actions, and anonymous interventions in the public realm which and with the involvement of spectators.

My Slate is entitled "My Love Affair with Melbourne" ~ 60 hours later, and I am done!
Herewith then, my submission for our Session 4 Assignment, but with a slight twist. Whilst Sebastian Michaels suggested we gather a dozen or so images for the project, I guess I got a little carried away and managed to stop just short of 200, so please allow for some additional loading time when viewing my Slate.
If you are planning an photographic excursion to Melbourne Australia, or even just a normal sight seeing vacation, then this Slate will be of interest to you.
It basically highlights my experiences from a photographers / artists point of view, which includes not only a whole bunch of B&W images, but also interesting anecdotes, as well as some useful tips and tricks along the way.
Grab a cup of coffee, or two, sit back and enjoy...

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The peony or paeony (Paeonia) is the only genus in the flowering plant family Paeoniaceae. They are native to Asia, southern Europe and western North America.
Most are herbaceous perennial plants 0.5–1.5 metres tall, but some are woody shrubs up to 1.5–3 metres tall. They have compound, deeply lobed leaves, and large, often fragrant flowers, ranging from red to white or yellow, in late spring and early summer. In the past, the peonies were often classified in the family Ranunculaceae, alongside Hellebores and Anemones.
The peony is named after Paeon or Paean, a student of Asclepius, the Greek god of medicine and healing. Asclepius became jealous of his pupil; Zeus saved Paeon from the wrath of Asclepius by turning him into the peony flower
The peony is among the longest-used flowers in ornamental culture and is one of the smallest living creature national emblems in China. Along with the plum blossom, it is a traditional floral symbol of China, where it is called 牡丹 (mǔ dān). It is also known as 富贵花 (fuguihua) "flower of riches and honour", and is used symbolically in Chinese art.[2] In 1903, the Qing Dynasty declared the peony as the national flower. Currently, the Republic of China on Taiwan designates the plum blossom as the national flower, while the People's Republic of China has no legally designated national flower. In 1994, the peony was proposed as the national flower after a nationwide poll, but the National People's Congress failed to ratify the selection. In 2003, another selection process has begun, but to date, no choice has been made.
The famous ancient Chinese city Luoyang has a reputation as a cultivation centre for the peonies. Throughout Chinese history, peonies in Luoyang are often said to be the finest in the country. Dozens of peony exhibitions and shows are still held there annually.
In Japan, Paeonia lactiflora used to be called ebisugusuri ("foreign medicine"). In kampo (the Japanese adaptation of Chinese medicine), its root was used as a treatment for convulsions. It is also cultivated as a garden plant. In Japan Paeonia suffruticosa is called the "The King of flowers" and Paeonia lactiflora is called the "prime minister of flowers".
Pronunciation of 牡丹 (peony) in Japan is "botan". Before the Meiji period, meat taken from quadrupeds was seldom consumed in Japan due to Buddhism. Thus in cases where such meat was handled, it was paraphrased using the names of flowers. The term botan was used (and is still used) to paraphrase wild boar meat. This comes from the flowery resemblance of the sliced meat when spread over a dish. Another example is sakura (cherry blossoms) which stands for horsemeat.
In 1957, the Indiana General Assembly passed a law to make the peony the state flower of Indiana, a title which it holds to this day. It replaced the zinnia, which had been the state flower since 1931.
Mischievous nymphs were said to hide in the petals of the Peony thus causing this magnificent flower to be given the meaning of Shame or Bashfulness in the Language of Flowers. It was named after Pæon, a physician to the gods, who obtained the plant on Mount Olympus from the mother of Apollo. Once planted the Peony likes to be left alone and punishes those who try to move it by not flowering again for several years. Once established, however, it produces splendid blooms each year for decades (Taken from The Language of Flowers, edited by Sheila Pickles, 1990).
Peonies are also extensively grown as ornamental plants for their very large, often scented flowers.
Peonies tend to attract ants to the flower buds. This is due to the nectar that forms on the outside of the flower buds.
Peonies are a common subject in tattoos, often used along with koi-fish.

A cultural event entitled “Follow Georgia” featuring an exhibition of work by contemporary Georgian artist Ms. Tamara Kvesitadze and a music performance by ethno-jazz band “Shin” was held on the sidelines of the Assemblies of WIPO Member States, which met from October 2-11, 2017.
Ms. Tamara Kvesitadze’s works take roots in antiquity and mythology as well as in surrealism, which successfully combine art and construction. The music of the Shin smoothly combines Georgian folk melodies with jazz, which is the sound of Georgia’s musical encounter with the world.
WIPO co-organized the event with the Government of Georgia to mark the 25th Anniversary of the National Intellectual Property Center of Georgia – SAKPATENTI.

Page from a brochure entitled The Centenary Year of Timothy Taylor & Co. Ltd. (1858-1958). The 24-page brochure contains a history of the Keighley-based brewery and an account of brewing itself, accompanied by line drawings. It was used as a promotional item. This page includes a portrait of founder Timothy Taylor.
Timothy Taylor & Co. Ltd. (maltsters and brewers) was founded by Timothy Taylor in December 1858. It originally operated from a brewery in Cook Lane, Keighley, before moving to Knowle Spring in 1863 where larger premises could be constructed. Timothy Taylor was born in Bingley in 1826. He was originally in the tailoring trade, with a shop on Low Street, Keighley. He married Charlotte Aked and his two sons (Robert Henry and Percy) continued the brewing business after Timothy's death in January 1898. Within a year of starting, the company had two licensed houses - the Volunteer Arms in Lawkholme Lane and the New Inn at Bocking. A well was sunk at Knowle Spring in 1894 that continues to provide the water for the brewing to this day. Timothy Taylor's became a limited company in 1929. The firm's championship-winning ale Landlord was created in 1952. Further sons and nephews continued to run the business. Timothy's grandson John Taylor, later Conservative peer Lord Ingrow, was the last direct descendant to run the company. He was replaced in 1995 by Charles Dent, who married John Taylor’s daughter Annie. Tim Dewey took over as chief executive in October 2014.

The Primary Section had a special assembly entitled -" Dubai Modern High joins World Malaria Day" where students were briefed about causes of Malaria and the need to support this cause.
All students and teachers sported the blue ribbon.
The students of grade 4 were given an assignment over the week end - cross linked with science [ Mini Beasts - Mosquitoes ]
A display board has also been put up in the Primary Section having the necessary information about the challenge.
World Malaria Day Report - Senior School
The students of Dubai Modern High School visited the village of Ambedkar Nagar, in the Indian state of Tamil Nadu, during the month of March, as part of their commitment and resolve to protect the environment against degradation. However, when the students ventured into the village, they realized that the lack of rainwater harvesting was only one of their problems; they were also struggling with the spread of vector-borne diseases such as Malaria, typhoid and cholera. Improperly dumped waste, clogged drains and inadequate sanitation had led to the breeding of mosquitoes which led to the local residents being afflicted with malaria and other extremely serious diseases.
As part of Modern's steadfastness and commitment to the project and the villagers concerned, the students also undertook measures to alleviate the local inhabitants of their struggle against the deadly disease. The students attended a water literacy program organized by the local NGO, Dhan Foundation with which we were collaborating, and worked with the villagers in helping them understand the causes, symptoms and measures to reduce the spread of malaria.
