The Palais Bénédictine (in English: "The Bénédictine Palace") in the seaside town of Fécamp, Normandy, France
Some background information:
The Palais Bénédictine is located in the seaside town of Fécamp, not far from the harbour. It was built in the 19th century to distil and bottle Bénédictine, a herbal liqueur flavoured with twenty-seven flowers, berries, herbs, roots, and spices. The liqueur was developed by the wine merchant Alexandre Le Grand in the 19th century. Today, the Palais Bénédictine houses the original factory where its eponymous liqueur is still produced, as well as a fascinating museum showcasing the history of the house and the monks who established the Bénédictine legacy. Furthermore, it’s cellars provide enough space for two million litres of liqueur, which is barrelled there.
In 1882, Le Grand commissioned the architect Camille Albert with the construction of a representative production facility for his liqueur. But the whole story had already begun in 1510, when the Benedictine monk Dom Bernardo Vincelli arrived in Fécamp from Italy. Vincelli was a gifted alchemist, and is said to have accidentally developed a herbal liqueur whilst trying to create an elixir for long life. His original recipe contained a mixture of twenty-seven different plants, herbs and spices, and it was dutifully followed by monks for some three hundred years, until the French Revolution, when the recipe got lost.
Happily, this loss was reversed with the arrival of Alexandre Le Grand, a wine merchant who visited Fécamp in the 1860s. Le Grand apparently found Vincelli’s original recipe among papers in the late alchemist’s library, and immediately began deciphering the long list of ingredients and extensive methodology. This took the merchant well over a year, but in 1863, he produced his first batch of the liqueur, later naming it "Bénédictine" in homage to its 16th-century inventor. To reinforce the myth, Le Grand even placed the abbreviation "D.O.M." on the label, which signify the words "Deo Optimo Maximo" (in English: "To God, the best, the greatest") that were originally used by the Benedictine Order to dedicate its work.
Following this discovery, Le Grand received permission from Rome to use the name Bénédictine liqueur, and began manufacturing the drink on a large scale, eventually making his fortune through sales of the fine aperitif. To reinforce the liqueur’s myth, he even placed the abbreviation "D.O.M." on the label, which signify the words "Deo Optimo Maximo" (in English: "To God, the best, the greatest") that were originally used by the Benedictine Order to dedicate its work. In 1888, his palatial production facility, which he had also planned to occupy, was inaugurated. But only four years later, it was completely destroyed by a fire caused by arson. However, Le Grand began to rebuild it almost immediately, but this time even larger and more representative.
This second, still existing building was finished in 1898, the year of Le Grand’s death, and officially inaugurated in 1900. The eclectic palace combines stylistic elements of Gothic and Renaissance architecture. It houses not only the distillery and the cellars, but also many representative rooms, like the library, the dining hall, the Abbots Hall, the Gothic Hall, the Renaissance Hall and the art collection.
The Bénédictine liqueur has been a success from the start. But it is not only popular in France and throughout Europe, but also in Asia and the US. Altogether, the liqueur is sold in over two hundred markets. In 1986, the Martini & Rossi group took control of Bénédictine. In 1992 they in turn were bought out by Bacardi for a reported $ 1.4 billion. By 2010 around 75% of the production was exported. This also marked a significant increase in its popularity in France. Today, the biggest consumers of Bénédictine are the United States, Malaysia and Singapore. But newest figures might even see China on top of the consumer markets.
Next to the original Bénédictine, the company also produces some another popular liqueur, the "B & B" ("Bénédictine and Brandy"), simply by blending Bénédictine with brandy. Bénédictine is bottled with an alcohol strength of 40%, which is very strong for a liqueur. Although the recipe of Bénédictine is still a commercial secret, 21 of the 27 herbs and spices are publicly known. These are: Angelica, hyssop, juniper, myrrh, saffron, mace, fir cones, aloe, arnica, lemon balm, tea, thyme, coriander, clove, lemon, vanilla, orange peel, honey, red berries, cinnamon, and nutmeg, leaving six unknown ingredients.
So many people have already tried to reproduce the liqueur that the company maintains on its grounds a "Hall of Counterfeits". Recipe, bottle and label have been imitated, as has the name Bénédictine. But the company prosecutes those it feels are infringing on its intellectual property.
Fécamp is a seaside and port town in the department of Seine-Maritime in the Haute-Normandy region in northern France. With its 18,500 residents, the community is situated in the valley of the Valmont river on the Côte d'Albâtre (in English: "Alabaster Coast") and located around 35 km (22 miles) northeast of the city of Le Havre, and around 60 km (37 miles) northwest of the city of Rouen.
According to its late medieval founding legend, the trunk of a fig tree carrying the Precious Blood of Christ collected by Joseph of Arimathea was washed ashore on the riverbank at Fécamp in the 1st century. Immediately, a fountain of holy blood gushed from the site. Subsequently, the relic attracted many medieval pilgrims, enhancing the reputation of the city.
However, human occupation of this spot dates back to Neolithic times. A prehistoric site spreads over 21 hectares, surrounded by walls and ditches for a length of nearly 2000 meters, including a praetorian door. The objects found there range in date from the Neolithic until Roman times. In the Roman period Fécamp was located on the ancient road linking Arques-la-Bataille and Lillebonne with the north of Gaul. Another Roman road linked Fécamp to Étretat.
Around 658, Waningus, a Merovingian count, founded a nunnery here, which was destroyed by the Vikings in 841. In 932, William I of Normandy (also known as "William Longsword") founded the castle that was to be the residence of the Dukes of Normandy up until 1204, after which, the Norman Duchy was integrated within the French royal domain.
In the 990s Richard I of Normandy, who was born in Fécamp, began the rebuilding of the abbey church. However, it was his successor Richard II who invited the zealous Saint William of Volpiano in 1001 to rekindle the life of the abbey under the Cluniac Benedictine rules. In 1202, King John of England granted a community system to Fécamp. In 1410, the English razed the town and it was not until 1449, when it was freed from English occupation.
For Fécamp, the Wars of Religion ended in 1593, when Captain de Bois-Rosé rallied the city to Henry IV of France after his conversion to Catholicism. In 1651, Charles II of England landed on the town’s coastline, soon after the Battle of Worcester, where he had been finally defeated by Oliver Cromwell.
Beyond that, the history of Fécamp has always revolved around the fishing industry and its harbour (first mentioned in the 11th century). The reputation of the salt-herrings of Fécamp was established as early as the 10th century and that of the smoked herrings as of the 13th century. In the 16th century, commercial fishing for cod started. Even throughout the 19th century and the early part of the 20th century, Fécamp had an important role as the chief fishing port of France for cod and cod-related fish. Today, pleasure boats have taken the place of many fishing boats in Fécamp’s harbour, but there is still a small fishing fleet that has survived.

這應該是第一張Music Inspiration與社會事件結合的作品。朋友們對於黑箱課綱的關注，讓我從完全不了解到站在認同退回課綱的立場上，也用文字、用影像發聲。
每個人心中都有一把尺，正義與否、操弄與否，其實大家都很清楚。但在此，我只想對死者致上最高的敬意，而非為自己的立場多加闡述，如此便失去此作的焦點。
躺臥在水裡即將沉沒、不帶掙扎，是象徵性的自殺；手上握著的白玫瑰，象徵至死也緊握心中那朵良善之花；雙眼被掩蓋了，還留有一口可以發聲。然而說到底，這也只是我的表達方式，這些象徵與體驗過程的難受，又豈能與祂們的實際的犧牲付出相比？
祂們當然不是神話，而我也反對用自殺的方式處理問題，此作更非鼓吹或歌頌自殺。但是怎麼樣龐大的勇氣，能讓一個人終結自己的生命，以換取心中的理想？憾事已成，我只能希望這樣的勇氣，在最後的最後，能帶來使大眾明辨是非的可能。
五年前，這只是傷心播放清單裡的一首歌；今時今日，這首歌卻聽來為台灣人而泣。
This is probably the first Music Inspiration work that associate with social events. My friends' attention on "Anti-Curriculum Change Movement" happened in Taiwan, changed my standpoint from not knowing to agreeing with returning controversy curriculum, and made me speak with words and images. (for those who not knowing the context, here's a report from CNN: ireport.cnn.com/docs/DOC-1260788, or you can google "Anti-Curriculum Change Movement in Taiwan" for more details.)
There's always a scale in everyone's heart to judge the truth. Whether it is justice, whether it is being manipulated, people know that with aware in fact. Here however, I'd like to show the highest respect to the dead rather than elaborate my standpoint, so the focus of the work won't be blurred.
Lying under the water and sinking in no time without any struggles represents symbolized suicide; the white rose held in hands represents clasping the flower of good and honest even until death; eyes are covered but the mouth was kept to speak. Yet after all, this is only my way of expression. How come could these symbols and uncomfortable feelings during the process be compared with their actual sacrifice?
They are definitely not living in the mythology, and I oppose to deal with the problem with suicide; furthermore, this work is way far from advocate or praise suicide. But how immense the courage is, to make a human being ending his life in exchange just for the ideal? The regrettable thing had occurred. I can only hope this courage brings out the chance for people to distinguish right from wrong in the end of the end.
Five years ago, it's just a song in my sad music playlist. Today, this song is played to cry for Taiwanese.

PS.
1. 自殺不能解決問題。只要心理覺得不適應時，請記得一定要找能夠提供幫助的人談談，更請別羞於向心理師求助。專業的心理師是不會用立場跟你對話的。
Suicide won't solve the problem. Once you feel mentally uncomfortable, don't hesitate to talk to someone who may help, and please don't be shy to seek assistance to psychologist. A professional psychologist won't communicate with you with a certain standpoint.
2. 不要汙名化精神疾病，更不應該公布他人的病史。
Don't stigmatize psychiatric disorders, and one should not make someone's medical history public.
3. 因為成果與章潔姐姐前輩的作品太相似了，怕引起誤會，所以有事先問過本人，他說沒問題哦！（超害羞的）
The result of work is too resemble to Ancajaier's work, and I was afraid of being misunderstood, so I ask her in advance about the similarity, and she said it's alright! *shyness*

A quaint fennel bush (Foeniculum vulgare) in front of the Teno mountains near Masca (Tenerife).
I wish you a wonderful weekend!
Copycat of this.
Smash a couple of cups of raspberries and put in a jug with the zest and juice of one lemon, a tisane made from pineapple sage (salvia elegans), mint, and a little simple syrup. Let it sit awhile, then strain. Press on the fruit to get all the juice out! Mix 1 part juice with 3 parts seltzer.
Hooray, I'm using more berries!
We also had blueberry/raspberry buttermilk pancakes for breakfast. SO GOOD.
this was taken at a Chinese herbal tea stall in Hong Kong.
Each type of tea is served in bowls and the stacked consumed bowls are displayed in-front of the counter -- I always have the feeling that it's either the vendor is too busy to put away the bowls or it's to advertise their "good business".
Further note, for those who does't feel comfortable drinking from the bowls, one could always request for a paper cup with additional HK$1.00 charges.

I went to the doctor and I had to wait for a long time for my turn, there was nothing interesting on tv nor a magazine around, so I decided to kill time...
UPDATE:
I added this to a really cool site called spoonflower, where you can print custom fabric for any sewing projects with this design. Isn't that amazing? They sent me a swatch for another pattern I designed and it looks so beautiful.

Native groups smoked Kinnikinnick (also called bearberry) and the berries are still used medicinally to treat bladder and kidney disorders. Truly, the leaves of Bearberry plant still fill many a pipe today.
Gardeners love Kinnikinnick for landscaping steep banks, rockeries and open spaces in urban settings where it anchors the soil by rooting at intervals along the prostrate stems.
The name "bearberry" for the plant derives from the edible fruit which is a favorite food of bears. The fruit, also called bearberries, are edible and are sometimes gathered for food. The leaves of the plant are used in herbal medicine.
Just one of the many northwest native plants listed by the Lewis and Clark Expedition, this one collected at Fort Mandan, McLean County in North Dakota. Captain Lewis noted on this specimen: "No. 33 An evergreen plant which grows in the open plains usually. The natives smoke it's leaves, mixed with tobacco. Called by the French Engages Sacacommis.-[specimen] obtained at Fort Mandan".
I took this photo to show how nature reclaims the detritus which falls to the forest floor.
A couple of snowy, recent photos and three images taken from my archives. If I wrote a description under a previously posted photo taken on the same day, I will add it under today's uploads.
"Photo above was taken on 4 September 2013 at the Reader Rock Garden in Calgary. I love seeing Echinacea flowers."
"Echinacea is a genus, or group of herbaceous flowering plants in the daisy family, Asteraceae. The nine species it contains are commonly called coneflowers. They are endemic to eastern and central North America, where they are found growing in moist to dry prairies and open wooded areas. They have large, showy heads of composite flowers, blooming from early to late summer. The generic name is derived from the Greek word ἐχῖνος (echino), meaning "sea urchin," due to the spiny central disk. Some species are used in herbal medicines and some are cultivated in gardens for their showy flowers. A few species are of conservation concern." From Wikipedia.
The name for this dolmen is steeped in Basque pagan mythology - myths and living stories that are certainly deeply medievalist while being distanced from the original early Neolithic signification of around 4,500 ybp. Whilst the rough translation of its name - 'Soriginetxe' - is 'witches hut', the Basque category for witch - Sorgin - is quite specific, and is best detached from more 'traditional' ideas of pagan witches. In Basque myths, Sorgina are mostly female assistants to the Godess Mari - mischievous and even nasty 'spirits' that helped people navigate complexity and in-conclusion and provided spice for evening story telling and a shiver for when walking past certain stones or gullies. Contrast this with the pagan witch - local women that people visited freely or paid fees for herbal advice, ritual prescription, general advice, protection and prediction. Witches (sorcières) were common in rural communities, certainly offering advice up to the first world war. They existed in a gray zone between belief, the open armed shrug and stern advice to keep away. These women worked outside of the church and might attract significant and polarized community reactions, with, at times, real cues forming as visitors arrived from far and wide (an example recounted from living memory).
The Catholic inquisitions against 'witches' (1538 ... 1610 ...) were generalist terror strategies and often served to upset Protestant or Moorish influences and reduce local Pagan decentralization and nuance. In the Basque region of this dolmen and beyond into the hills and valleys of the Sorgina, the witch hunts spilled up from Spain and down from France with thousands of local people turned towards distress and hundreds of women and even children murdered with public cruelty and private torture.
To the north, in a area currently in France, joyful and technical traditional dances occurred around the light and heat of a wood fire - protected from the rhythms of the Basque rain in a large cave mouth. These local gatherings were stigmatized as witch rituals with a resulting loss of life after lengthy periods of community stress. To the south of this dolmen, the town of Logroño hosted a series of trials, once again with a barbarous loss of life.
The dolmen itself retains a resolute synergy with the natural landscape - proof of existence weighted with lightness : standing taller than some of the miseries of history.
