These are the photos I used for my Art Assessment - Teen Existence. I based it on how most people view teenagers. Some people think that teenagers are ALL bad people, but in actual fact - we really aren't

Here are some about California you might know:
1) California is the USA's most populous state with almost 40,000,000 residents, more than Canada as of 2008. One of eight United States residents live here.
2) California contains the lowest and the highest points in the continental U. S. You can travel from 282 feet below sea level in Death Valley to 14,494-foot Mt. Whitney in less than a day
3) The California Central Valley, which is located at the center of the state, is the state's agricultural capital, which produces one-third of the nation's food.
Vivian, South Dakota, looking southwest, September 1989.
The depot was built in 1906, the same year Vivian came into existence. That is the year that the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul Railway extended its line as far as Vivian. Reliance, Presho and Kennebec had come into existence in 1905, when the railroad had reached those points.
The last C. M. & St. P. train came through Vivian sometime in the late 1970s or early 1980s (the railroad crossing sign is visible at the far left). I wasn't living there at the time, so I can only guess. The line was refurbished (sort of) in the late 1980s, and the Dakota Central Railroad would send an occasional train crawling at a snail's pace past Vivian about once a week or once a month, or so it seemed to me. They crawled because the tracks were in such bad shape, even after the "refurbishing," that things like this happened occasionally.
I was in the depot many times in 1983, 1984 and again from 1989 to 1993, as it was used as a storage building by my employers, Midwest Custom Pools and Kevin Patrick Construction.
The historian in me continually pestered my friend Kevin Patrick to refurbish the depot before it was too late. He always refused. Then in 2006 he told me he wished he had refurbished the depot while there was still a chance.
The historian in me shouted something like this at him, "Aaaacccchhhhh!"
Here is what the same scene looks like today: View Google Image. The yellow truck is parked where the depot stood. Sad.
The parish came into existence following the decision of the Diocesan Council, in the fall of 1998, following the repeated insistence of the faithful from the Drumul Taberei neighborhood, who were disappointed by the lack of places of worship in this neighborhood.
Thus, at the initiative of the priest Nicolae Burlan, a disassembled wooden church was brought from the Vicovul de Jos commune in Suceava county and reassembled on a plot of land belonging to the Ministry of National Defense located in Brașov Street, no. 21C, sector 6.
Later, interventions were made at the City Hall of the Capital, which ceded a 3000 square meter plot of land for the purpose of building a church and which was given in exchange to the Ministry of National Defense for the equivalent area on which the wooden church is already located.
The wooden church was consecrated by His Holiness Teodosie Snagoveanul, Vicar Bishop of the Archdiocese of Bucharest at that time, on July 26, 1998.
The shrine of the church is Saint Pious Parascheva, (in Greek "paraschevi" means "Friday") whom Orthodox Christianity celebrates on October 14 and whose Holy Relics are in the Metropolitan Cathedral of Iași.
Since the wooden church proved inadequate for the more than 1,000 believers from various neighborhoods who regularly participate in the Holy services, the decision was made to build a brick church, of larger dimensions absolutely necessary for a neighborhood like Drumul Taberei.
The plan of the new church belonging to the architect Florin Bucur Crăciun is in the form of an inscribed Greek cross.
From an architectural point of view, it fits into the style prefigured by the churches "Sfânta Sofia" in Constantinople and "Sfântul Nicolae Domnesc" in Curtea de Argeș.
A large central hemispherical dome dominates the spatial composition of the edifice.
A wide porch with six free and two engaged columns precedes the entrance.
Access to the church is through a portal with an arched frame, made of finely carved stone.
The vault is made up of 25 semi-arches, resting at the ends on two metal caisson rings, with other intermediate rings unfolding between them.
The covering of the altar, similar to the apses of the proscomidiary and the diaconicon, is made by a cone connected to a semi-cylinder.
On the opposite side, on the first floor, there is the cage which is accessed by stairs placed inside, in the northwest and southwest corners of the building, which also lead to the two balconies.

Very necessary, important existence.
But, it wishes that it want to do so if possible and to keep
quiet indefinitely.

A previous existence as a military parachutist helped Patrick Baty on this project. The 185ft bridge had to be scaled at night, when the trains had stopped running, in order for paint samples to be taken.
See the BBC clip here.
He was able to establish that this famous bridge by Isambard Kingdom Brunel had originally been painted with a white “anti-corrosive” paint containing ground glass. The bridge had been painted twenty times and with a combination of physical and documentary analysis Patrick was able to work out how it looked since it was built in 1859.
Capernaum:
Also known as Tell Hum, Khirbet Karazeh, Bethsaida, Capharnaum, Chorazin, Kefar Nahum, Kafarnaum, Kefar Tanhum, Talhum, Tanhum
In existence from the 2nd c. B.C. to the 7th c. A.D., Capernaum was built along the edge of the Sea of Galilee and had up to 1500 residents.
Today the ruins are owned by two churches: the Franciscans control the western portion with the synagogue and the Greek Orthodox’s property is marked by the white church with red domes.
Jesus made Capernaum his home during the years of his ministry: “Leaving Nazareth he went and lived in Capernaum” (Matt 4:13).
Peter, Andrew, James and John were fishermen living in the village. Matthew the tax collector also dwelt here.
Capernaum is one of the three cities cursed by Jesus for its lack of faith.
The Synagogue
The dating of this synagogue is debated, but it is clearly later than the first century. Excavations have revealed a synagogue from the time of Jesus with walls made of worked stone and 4 feet thick.
These earlier walls were preserved up to 3 feet high and the entire western wall still exists and was used as the foundation for the later synagogue.
Jesus was confronted by a demoniac while teaching here (Mark 1:21-27).
In Capernaum, Jesus healed the servant of the centurion. This Roman official was credited with building the synagogue (Luke 7:3).
In this synagogue, Jesus gave sermon on the bread of life (John 6:35-59).
The House of Peter
Excavations revealed one residence that stood out from the others. This house was the object of early Christian attention with 2nd century graffiti and a 4th century house church built above it. In the 5th century a large octagonal Byzantine church was erected above this, complete with a baptistery. Pilgrims referred to this as the house of the ap

A man said to the universe:
"Sir I exist!"
"However," replied the universe,
"The fact has not created in me
A sense of obligation."
