ABOUT THE CONFERENCE
"The very existence of national groupsâtheir history, their memory and their futureârests on their members right to life, but scholars sometimes pay too little attention to assaults on the cultural identities of such groups which often precede physical attacks.
âPlundered Cultures, Stolen Heritageââ Concordia Universityâs contribution to Canadaâs year of Holocaust Remembrance leadershipâ begins the task of filling that gap and integrating our knowledge. Leading experts on the experiences of cultural destruction and mass atrocities suffered by the First Nations, Armenian and Jewish peoples are assembling to discuss the motives of the perpetrators of these assaults, their impact,
and the significance these attacks pose for restitution and reconciliation today.
âPlundered Cultures, Stolen Heritageâ opens a key chapter in multidisciplinary human rights studies integrating research on history, cultural studies and the memory of atrocity. Rather than a competition of suffering between groups, it signifies the determination of scholars to learn from the shared experiences of First Nations, Armenian and Jewish groups for the sake of
all groups confronting crimes against humanity and genocides intended to destroy their national existence."
Animals are a part and parcel of our society. Humans and animals have a great emotional connection with each other. Sometimes we ignore the existence of them but we should always remember that animals plays a very important role in our life and we can make a peaceful world for them.
12th Century church, in a parish that has been in existence for a further 600.
From their website - "The church is dedicated to Saint Katharine of Alexandria, whose feast of title falls on 25th November. Katharine (alternative spelling Catherine) lived in the fourth century and legend has it that she was the daughter of Costus, governor of Alexandria. It is claimed that she was a noted scholar; and that she visited a contemporary, the Roman Emperor Maxentius, son of former Emperor Maximian, in an attempt to convince him of the error of his ways in worshipping false gods and in persecuting Christians. Although she failed in this, she succeeded in converting his wife, the Empress. Maxentius was furious and sent fifty of his wisest men to argue with her about her faith, but she refuted them, remaining steadfast to her Christian faith."

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.
I just love those moments when it just finished raining, and the sun is laying perfectly over everything.
Some people may moan about the present cold spell, however there is always a silver lining and some of the sky scenes have been awesome recently and many a time have I wanted to pull over and take a shot during work; this is exactly what I did on this day. This is in a parking area on the A46 en route to Newark.

Skinner is more than just an artist who paints psychodellic images of metal band mayhem, he is an event, a personality, a one-stop-shop of the super rad. It is within this personality that we begin to understand Skinner's work, and the detail, time, and focus he puts into everything he produces. We sat down with the artist to talk about his new show at The Shooting Gallery entitled "The Fragile Art of Existence" which explores a new place in the Skinner's body of work.
