My wife and I went to the first exhibition in Germany about Adof Hitler since the end of the war,needless to say its a touchy subject. The exhibit was located in the German national history museum and when you went inside the museum you would never know there was an exhibit about Hitler. I asked if i could take pictures and i was told i could without a flash but i managed to go in and snap a few pictures before i was told i was not allowed to,
The exhibit makes a strong point to explain the rise of Hitler,his impact on Germany,its people and crimes the crimes committed by this regime. The stories i read about it in English language German newspapers say they did not want the exhibition to be something Neo Nazis would not flock to.
The whole exhibition covers Hitler's rise from obscurity,the Nazis grab of power,life in Nazi Germany,Racial laws,the start of the war to the end and Hitler's legacy.
As well as the public's perception of Hitler from his time to present. I found it a bit strange to hear laughter during the exhibit but this came from scenes from Charlie Chaplin's parody of Hitler to videos from youtube with the meme of "Hitler's reaction to.." from the movie the Untergang. The youtube video "Hitler's reaction to Micheal Jacksons death" was on display which garned alot of laughs.
The whole exhibit had many relics from Nazi Germany. There were all sorts of uniforms from the 3rd reich like posters,children's books,painting,nazi street signs,Field Marshall baton's, strips of uncut yellow fabric the with star of David and "jude" written on it. Some of the artifacts were in such pritine condition they were down right errie looking.
The whole exhibit was really interesting but the disappointing part is that the main sections of the exhibit were described in English as well as German but alot of the individual artifacts and displays were only in German which gave me the impression that the exhibit was mainly for Germans.

I was honored to be invited to photograph the home of the late Leta Mac Stripling before renovation begins. Inside this well-maintained c. 1920s farmhouse are Mrs. Stripling's furnishings and objets d'art, including a set of Currier prints, documents of local historic interest, and many, many books.

The church is tucked away in a quiet part of town surrounded by cottages of Mere stone. The 15th century tower looks down on a churchyard with 12 yew trees clipped in the shape of skittles and known as the 12 Apostles. Entry is through the 14th century north porch door, over which in a niche is a statue of St Michael defeating the serpent, dating from about 1160, with faint traces of colour.
There is a record of a church in Mere in 1091. It is possible that the rough masonry wall of the tower facing into the nave and pierced now by an arch of about 1450 dates from this 11th century building. South of the arch at a high level is a piece of charred timber protected by glass. This is thought to be a part of the original wall plate and so marks the width of the Saxon church.
In the middle of the 15th century, the nave was rebuilt and a clerestory added. On the north side, the clerestory windows are ‘blind’ but otherwise matching those on the south side. The nave ceiling panels were put in in 1998. The eastern ones, painted red and green, were part of an 1895 roof restoration. All the roof bosses are late 19th century, but the angels on the wall plates, bearing emblems of the passion and rising out of stylised clouds, date from the 15th century, though much restored.
The pews date from 1640, being the work of William Walter of Maiden Bradley. They house a colourful collection of hassocks made by parishioners between 1974 and 2000.
An intricately-carved 15th century wooden rood screen dominates the eastern end of the nave, and above it, an 1898 rood beam supporting a Christ figure in the centre and St John and Our Lady on each side.
The chancel was built in the 13th century and has choir stalls with 15th century panels on their fronts. The back stalls have seats with carved misericords: those on the south side are 15th century originals, those on the north are 20th century copies.
The south aisle was widened in the late 14th century to align with the South Chantry Chapel which had been founded in 1325. The line of the earlier roof can be seen in the eastern wall of this aisle. In 1712 the wall between the nave and south aisle had become unsafe and was rebuilt. The aisle roof dates from restoration work done to various parts of the church in 1856.
The 15th century font on a 19th century base was formerly under the tower but now stands in the south aisle. This is quite appropriate as well into the 19th century there was a pew here for the “Churching of Women” service. This supports the theory based on early churchwardens’ accounts that here also was an altar dedicated to “Our Lady in Childbirth”. The figure in the upper niche is of “Our Lady great with child” by the sculptress Grete Berlin.
The piscina in the south wall as well as the sad remnant of a fine 13th century niche was uncovered in the early years of the 20th century. Behind the font is an engraved window of 1983 by John Finnie depicting the induction of the Revd. Ben Elliot to the parish in 1981.
St Matthew’s Chapel (south aisle, to the right of the chancel)
The fine oak screen is contemporary with the 15th century chancel screen. Known variously as the Bettesthorne, Berkeley or Grove chapel, it was founded in 1325 by John of Mere that Mass might be said for the soul of Queen Margaret, the second wife of Edward I and for the souls of John of Mere and his wife. In the floor is a brass of Sir John Bettesthorne.
Its patronage passed from John of Mere to Roger Bettesthorne and, by marriage of his great granddaughter, to the Berkeleys with whom it remained until the Reformation when it passed to the Chafyn and Grove families.
During 2004, the Church of St Matthew to the South side of Mere was closed, and the congregation was invited to join worship at St Michael’s. Several items of furniture were brought to this church and placed in the South Chapel, which was rededicated to St Matthew.
All the pages for the " Entry Point" booklet. We've ordered them as individual 4x6 postcards with round corners and brought them to a local printing company (Concord Printing - thanks Ben!) to drill a hole (where the metal ring will be inserted). After this process we got lots of help from church volunteers to assemble 500 of them.

Security walks the other side of that pile of rocks. We ventured out this evening to our favorite haunts in Providence RI. We returned to the ongoing relocation of RT95/RT95 in the heart of the Providence curves, quite a spectacular undertaking.
Although not the coldest outing, the wind chill robbed our warmth and whittled our group of shooters as the night progressed. The wind eventually died down but I'll have to admit I was cold.
The group this time out was threshold, Skazama, Rizzolo, Rltm401 and Upsilon_48.
You can see a group pool here of all our shots on Flickr from the night or a slick slideshow here. It may take a week or so for all the shots to be posted.
I'm not sure where to title it, or write it, but I've themed this on antique and vintage. I chose this because the gorgeous wedding gown is cinched at the waist with the crystals and pearls which gives it an almost antique-y look. Add that with the model's earrings and I was totally seeing vintage pieces.
I wanted to tie in a vintage/princess/fairy tale type theme, with pink the colour throughout.

These nesting dolls were produced for Nike featuring their entire pro snowboard riders team. A professional artist created the caricatures of pro riders, as Aliens, and hand painted the original nesting doll. We digitized the original art, then printed and cut it on premium cast vinyl with SP-300V. The art was applied to the 12" wooden blank dolls with hand painted backgrounds. Few more hand painted details were added to enhance the blend of printed and hand painted areas of the product. Each doll in the set was finally covered with high gloss water-based lacquer. A batch of several hundred sets was produced. Due to hand carved nature of the blank nesting dolls, every set varied in size and shape.
