(Expectation Effect)
A major celebrity (Kim Karadashian) promotes a product (excerise DVDs) and look (her body). The DVD's say if any woman does these simple workout routines which she is willing to give the secret to, they can look as gorgeous as she is. While this could be highly debated, the fact it sells in the billions and six dvds have been produced so far. This also falls into the Placebo Effect.

Note: The quality of this pic is not good cos it was taken using my cellphone. What a pity coming across such beauty when I'm without my camera, but still, I think it's nice enough to be featured in here. xD

Each spring we live in expectation of the blooming of our clematis over the balcony railing. When it hits for two weeks it's an abundance of pink flowers and a sweet smell surrounds the house. Then, alas, it's over for another year...
I am off today feeling very low. Looking through window with expectation of new energy and positive vibe. Looking at this dusk reminds new dawn to arrive tomorrow with new energy. Omen!!

Wednesday 17th June. There was widespread expectation First Minister Nicola Sturgeon would announce a move to phase two of lockdown on Thursday 18th June and give indicative dates for further easing of lockdown.
In phase two the virus is controlled but remains; R is consistently below 1 and WHO conditions are met. Physical distancing would still be required.
Phase two includes: People meeting in larger groups; workers being allowed to return to construction sites; opening playgrounds; small shops selling non-essential goods reopening (but not shopping malls); outdoor beer gardens but not indoor areas of pubs.
"Ms Sturgeon has previously stressed that not all of the changes will happen overnight, and it might not be until "the coming weeks" that some are in place."

I just got home from pottery class, the boys know the routine - out back for what ever and then a treat, They are looking for the treats.
"This is the blissful striving of my heart's desire:
to carry the light of the spirit
into the cosmic winter night,
so that sparkling seeds of my soul
may take root in cosmic soil—
and that the Word of God may resound
through the darkness of my senses,
transfiguring my entire existence."
—Rudolf Steiner, translated by Tom Mellett,
one of the candles in an advent wreath made for me by Christine
out of the cave of the heart
a light shines
like a shining apple
star-light from the core
"Here lyes in hope and expectation of the joyfull and disyred day of resurrection when the Saviour of the world shall appeare in power and judgment, to awake all those who have slept in Him, to be partakers of the everlasting happiness of the eternall kingdome, Sir Henry Sydney, knight, discended from the stemme of Viscount Lisle, Baron of Penshurst in Kent. Lorde Chamberleyn to the Queenes majestie and governoure of Flushing
His youth was seasoned with the feare of God, duty towards his parents and love to learning, his following aged yielded fruites of hospitality towards all the men of charitie, towards the poore, of faithfulness towards his friendes, and of peaceablenes amongst his neighbours. He and his end was concluded with piety, with patience and with a comfortable farewell at the tearme of 59 yeares, the 2d of November Anno Domini 1612
Here (joynd as well in ye safe hope of a joyfull resurrection as in all piety and conjugall love to the sayd Sir Henry Sidney) rests the body of Dame Jane his wife, daughter of Francis Jermy of Brightwell in Suffolk, esq, who after her peregrination of 73 yeares injoying 28 thereof in the happy society of her sayd husband and continuing his name and memory for 28 more (in a most chast and retired widowhood) upon the 9th of August 1638 departed this life . No lady lived more christiany nor dyed more happily, many daughters have done virtuously but thou excellest them all (proverbs 31.29)"
Henry Sydney 1612 was the son of Thomas Sydney 1585 & Barbara 1585 daughter of William Walsingham 1534 & Joyce Denny 1496 widow of John Carey & sister of Sir Francis Walsingham
He was the grandson of Agnes & Thomas Sydney 1544 who was employed by the townsmen to buy the priory lands for the town, but on paying £90 to the Crown, kept it for himself.
As the inscription says Henry was Lorde Chamberlain to Queen Elizabeth & Governor of Flushing.
He succeeded his brother Thomas husband of Mary Southwell who died without issue.
He m 1581 Jane (aged 16) daughter of Francis Jermy of Brightwell & Margaret heiress of Thomas Tey of Brightwell & Stutton

Lowaldie.
Farmers took up land here in 1912 with the expectation of a rail siding on the Tailem Bend to Brown’s Well railway. Lowaldie siding opened in 1913 after protests to the railways as they had not planned for a siding at Lowaldie. Lowaldie station finally closed in 1974. A town of 72 allotments was surveyed in 1913 with parklands and suburban lands beyond. By 1916 only two allotments had been sold! The first building in town was a stone Post Office shed. One allotment was set aside for an institute and the locals began amassing money but very slowly. In 1919 they purchased the Post Office stone shed for an institute. It served this purpose from 1920 to 1925. In 1920 the institute was hired out for Methodist church services but this stopped with a year or so for want of a good sized congregation. The building was sold in 1927 to a new postmaster. It remained the Post Office until 1958. A school opened in the Institute in 1922 but closed at the end of that year. The Lowaldie School was then started up a few miles out of town in a rural location to the north of the town. It operated from 1930 to 1940 before final closure. Nothing remains on that site now except for a memorial cairn. In 1934 the residents began to plan for a second institute which was built of limestone and red bricks and it opened in 1935. Sporadic Methodist church services were held in the new Lowaldie Institute from 1936 through to 1970. From 1930 the town parklands and suburban lands were leased to broad acre farmers for cropping. Only two residential allotments were ever sold in Lowaldie.
It's hard to grow up with your expectation....

With great expectation of this lens, I was sadly disappointed at the results. there may be an issue with this copy however the lens itself looks pristine in all visual aspects. it may not be compatible with the original a7 series full frame mirrorless cameras. It had severe vignetting which was corrected in post however the vignetting was of an off color. hopefully results with an APSC sensor size camera will be better. if anyone has had similar results with this 21 mm Contax G mount Carl Zeiss lens please feel free to comment.
