Adopt A Rescue Dog In Los Angeles
As seen on my fotonomous blog: fotonomous.blogspot.com/2009/11/adopt-rescue-dog-in-los-a...
Every time I take Cali out with me I get questions about where I got her from so I thought I'd do a reference blog for anyone looking to adopt a labrador in Los Angeles. I am also including a few other general references to good general rescue groups in L.A.
The biggest misconception people seem to have about rescue groups (and even shelters) is that they can't get a puppy or a purebred there. Labs of all colors and ages are available at rescues and shelters.
After my beloved Lucy The Boxador died of lymphoma in late June, I searched many places looking for another dog: petfinder.com; craigslist; petorphans.org; petadoptionfund.org in Canoga Park; karmarescue.org; and more.
The three main places I found that specialized in labs were: Labs And Buddies; Southern California Labrador Retriever Rescue; and indilabrescue.org.
Here's a breakdown of each group.
1). Labs And Buddies is where I found my last dog, my beloved Lucy The Boxador. labsandbuddies.org is run by the blood, sweat, and tears of Laura Portillo and a small group of volunteers.
This is a blurb from their website:
"Laura Portillo is the founder of 'Labs and Buddies Rescue'...Although her first love is the Lab, she loves all breeds and will rescue any breed in need, space and finances permitting. She specializes in black dogs, because unfortunately they're always the last ones to be picked by adopters at shelters, and too often they're not picked at all..."
It breaks my heart to see some dogs available on their website that have been around since I adopted Lucy from them in December 2007. Labs and Buddies have a wonderful heart but unfortunately I don't think they have the time or resources to get every dog shown (some live in kennels). I know with Lucy, they rescued her from the Camarillo shelter in September of 2007, then she was put in a kennel for several months, and because she was not doing well in that environment, Laura personally took Lucy into her home a couple weeks before I adopted Lucy in December 2007. Lucy was lucky to get out of the kennel in a few months, it's horrible to think that some dogs are stuck there for years.
Most of the adoption events are held on weekends in Woodland Hills, so please check them out if you're looking for a dog. They have much more than labs too.
2). Southern California Labrador Retriever Rescue is where I found Cali. I was very impressed by the work that SCLRR does in fostering the dogs and interviewing applicants before adopting a dog out. The woman who fostered Cali is one of the founders of the group and has personally fostered around 500 dogs herself! Getting Cali from SCLRR saved me a lot of time, money, and training. At four months old she was already crate and potty trained, knew sit and lie down commands, was spayed and had all her shots. As an incentive to put your dog through obedience training, SCLRR refunds $50 of the training cost (you can go to any training place you choose) for basic obedience. Dogs at SCLRR aren't kenneled, they are fostered in homes with dog savvy owners and generally exposed to other dogs, children, and sometimes cats. This way the foster parents are able to report about how well a particular dog does and if they should be placed with another pet, be a solo dog in the home, if they're too boisterous for kids, or if they have a prey drive with cats. Personally I found it really nice to have more information on a dog's personality, temperament, and even energy level before making an adoption decision. Also a really nice touch, when I adopted Cali I was given a folder that included all her medical papers and other information about raising puppies and labradors in particular. There was even a training dvd! And Cali's sweet foster Mom even gave me a couple of her toys (Cali still plays with her stuffed lambie - how she hasn't destroyed it with her puppy chewing is beyond me), a nylabone, and a few days worth of her kibble. And Cali's foster Mom has always been available for follow-up emails or calls. One extra perk from my experience with SCLRR is that I've become friends with the lady who did the home check. She has a black lab too and Cali and her dog Kylie have had a couple doggie playdates so far.
3). Independent Labrador Retriever Rescue of Socal (indilabrescue.org). The only personal experience I have with indilabrescue is a representative coming to my house to do a home check. But I can see from their website that they seem to be run in a similar way to SCLRR. All the dogs are fostered in homes and there's always a very informative description of each dog available for adoption.
What I think is really good about both SCLRR and indilabrescue is that the dogs don't seem to be stuck in foster care for long. They both appear to have a very good turnaround.
Another good rescue group I encountered is Karma Rescue. They were very organized, had lots of info about each dog they fostered (they also mainly do home fosters, but have some dogs kenneled), and spent a lot of time with me answering questions and trying to match me up with dogs. They don't specialize in labs, but when I was going to their adoption events I saw a few pit/lab mixes, and some older black labs. They specialize more in Pit Bulls so the pit mixes are probably what you will encounter there.
Also check out Hope For Paws, a group run by one of my flickr friends Eldad Hagar. Eldad has an amazing flickr photostream documenting all the dogs and other critters he has saved and adopted out. He and his wife Audrey put together an amazing hard cover book Our Lives Have Gone To The Dogs that's only $9.95 and filled with heartwarming tales and before and after photos of wonderful dogs that went from neglect to loving homes.
All the money made from sales of the book go directly towards saving more homeless animals and towards veterinary costs. I highly recommend buying this wonderfully inspiring book for yourself and if can afford it, get a few copies for gifts!
Along with the nearly 100 pages of photos and stories, there are some great dog related quotes inside. I love this one on page 24, "The reason a dog has so many friends is that he wags his tail instead of his tongue."
If you want a dog please consider adopting from a local rescue or shelter. I think petfinder.com probably has the most comprehensive list of rescue groups by zip code. I've never bought a dog from a store or a breeder in my entire life. The bond you will have with a dog that comes from a shelter or rescue is unbelievable. They are so happy to be in a loving home and they will thank you with their love and companionship forever.

Lori Deiter and I planned to hike the Falls Trail on Feb 1st... It was decided to hike in from Rte 118 up to Onondaga Falls on Glen Leigh. Mark Van Scyoc and his friend, Doug Reese met us in the parking lot and we hiked up together to B. Reynolds and they left to hike up to the base of Ganoga Falls. My favorite / highlight of the day was the ice leading up to and around Ozone Falls - awesome.

Juan A. Gaitán appointed curator of the 8th Berlin Biennale for Contemporary Art
KW Institute for Contemporary Art in Berlin is delighted to announce the appointment of Juan A. Gaitán as curator of the 8th Berlin Biennale for Contemporary Art. The 8th Berlin Biennale will take place in spring 2014.
Juan A. Gaitán (Canada/Colombia) is an independent writer and curator, currently based in Mexico City and Berlin. He is trained as an artist and art historian at University of British Columbia and Emily Carr Institute of Art and Design in Vancouver (Canada). Between January 2009 and December 2011, he was curator at Witte de With Center for Contemporary Art in Rotterdam (The Netherlands), and between September 2011 and June 2012 adjunct professor in the Curatorial Practice Program at the California College of the Arts in San Francisco (USA). During the 2006 – 2008 period, he was on the Board of Directors of the Western Front Society, and worked as external curator at the Morris and Helen Belkin Art Gallery in Vancouver. His writings have been published in several journals, including Afterall, The Exhibitionist, Fillip, and Mousse. His most recent exhibition, Material Information, spans three venues in Bergen (Norway), and looks for a renewed critical approach to the contemporary global distribution of labor from the perspective of arts and crafts. He is presently member of the acquisitions committee at FRAC Nord-Pas de Calais in Dunquerke (France).
The Berlin Biennale for Contemporary Art is since its fourth edition one of the institutions supported by the German Federal Cultural Foundation as „outstanding cultural event“. The support of 2.5 Million Euros per edition ensures planning stability, enabling the organizers to address issues of content in an experimental way.
Since the first edition in 1998, the Berlin Biennale has become a major international event for contemporary art. Located in the midst of Berlin’s vibrant cultural scene in the fast-changing capital of Germany, the Berlin Biennale has received an enthusiastic response from the audience as an experimental, forward-looking and contextual show. The previous seven editions of the Berlin Biennale explored a variety of exhibition formats and involved diverse curatorial agendas.
Curators have been:
1st Berlin Biennale (1998): Klaus Biesenbach with Nancy Spector, and Hans Ulrich Obrist
2nd Berlin Biennale (2001): Saskia Bos
3rd Berlin Biennale (2004): Ute Meta Bauer
4th Berlin Biennale (2006): Maurizio Cattelan, Massimiliano Gioni, and Ali Subotnick
5th Berlin Biennale (2008): Adam Szymczyk and Elena Filipovic
6th Berlin Biennale (2010): Kathrin Rhomberg
7th Berlin Biennale (2012): Artur Żmijewski together with associate curators Voina and Joanna Warsza
The selection committee for the curatorship of the 8th Berlin Biennale consisted of Sergio Edelsztein (Director and Chief Curator, The Centre for Contemporary Art, Tel Aviv); Cao Fei (Artist, Bejing), Susanne Gaensheimer (Director, MMK Museum für Moderne Kunst, Frankfurt a. M.), Koyo Kouoh (Founding Director and Artistic Director, Raw Material Company - Center for Art, Knowledge and Society, Dakar), Matthias Mühling (Head of Department, Curator, Städtische Galerie im Lenbachhaus, Munich), Bisi Silva (Director and Founder, Centre for Contemporary Art, Lagos), and Patricia Sloane (Associate Curator, MUAC Museo Universitario Arte Contemporáneo and advisor to the Head of Visual Arts, UNAM Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México, Mexico City).
The Berlin Biennale is realized by KW Institute for Contemporary Art and funded by the German Federal Cultural Foundation.

Description: Bruce A. Peterson joined NASA in August 1960 as an engineer at the Flight Research Center (now NASA Dryden). He transferred to the Flight Operations branch in March 1962 and was initially assigned as one of the project pilots on the Rogallo paraglider research vehicle (Paresev) program. The Paresev was used to evaluate the use of an inflatable and non-inflatable, flexible wing for the recovery of manned space vehicles. A handful of NASA pilots made more than 100 Paresev research flights between 1962 and 1964. It resembled a tricycle beneath a hang glider, and was towed aloft behind a car or small airplane and released for a glide landing.
In preparation for his continuing flight research duties, he attended the Air Force Test Pilot School, graduating as a member of Class 62C. In fact, he was the first NASA pilot to graduate from the TPS. He remained active with the Marine Corps Air Reserve, flying the F9F, OV-10, A-4 and various helicopters.
As a NASA research pilot he flew a wide variety of airplanes including F5D-1, F-100, F-104, F-111A, B-52, NT-33A Variable Stability Trainer, T-33, T-37B, T-38A, C-47, CV-990, Learjet, JetStar, wingless lifting bodies, numerous general aviation aircraft, several types of helicopter and sailplanes.
As project pilot on the F-111A, he performed tests related to stability and control, performance and structural loads. The F-111 was a variable-geometry (or swing-wing) jet aircraft. Research with the aircraft included engine inlet and exhaust studies, internal flow investigations and aerodynamics research.
On Dec. 3, 1963, he flew the first of 42 flights in the M2-F1 lightweight lifting body. His first flight in the heavyweight M2-F2 on Sept. 16, 1966, was an unpowered glide flight from an altitude of 45,000 feet. After release from a B-52 mothership, he executed a 360-degree turning approach and landed on the dry lakebed. He made another glide flight in the same vehicle six days later.
Peterson piloted the maiden flight of the HL-10 lifting body on Dec. 22, 1966. During the three-minute descent to landing, he discovered he had minimal lateral control over the vehicle. Airflow separation across the control surfaces rendered the HL-10 virtually unflyable but he managed to land the vehicle safely, a tribute to his considerable piloting skills. As a result of the data collected during the near disastrous flight, the HL-10 was modified to fix the problem and went on to become one of the most successful lifting body concepts. It was a strong contender for the final space shuttle design.
Peterson was injured in the crash of the M2-F2 on May 10, 1967. He recovered from his injuries but lost his sight in one eye due to a secondary infection while in the hospital.
Peterson continued to fly NASA support missions, occasional research flights and his Marine Reserve flying duties. He continued to fly for NASA until 1971, doing research in the T-33, F-104B, F-111A, CV-990 and Aero Commander. He also flew NASA's SH-3A helicopter. The Marine Corps gave him a waiver that allowed him to fly with a co-pilot and he continued to fly the OV-10 airplane and the AH-1G and CH-46 helicopters. During his flying career Peterson logged more than 6,000 flight hours in nearly 70 types of aircraft.
Peterson gained a small measure of fame when his accident and subsequent recovery inspired a 1970s television series called The Six-Million Dollar Man. The storyline featured a test pilot who, having been injured in the crash of a lifting body vehicle, is rebuilt with advanced "bionic" technology. Film footage of the M2-F2 accident was used in the show's opening credits.
Peterson continued at NASA Dryden as the research project engineer on the F-8 Digital Fly-By-Wire program of the late 1960s and early 1970s, and later assumed responsibility for Safety and Quality Assurance for Dryden until his retirement in 1981.
He left NASA for a position with Northrop where he assumed responsibility for safety and quality assurance for testing of the B-2 Advanced Technology Bomber. From 1982 until 1994 Peterson worked in Northrop's B-2 division at Air Force Plant 42 in Palmdale and Edwards, becoming manager of system safety and human factors.
A native of Washburn, N.D., Peterson was born on May 23, 1933. He grew up in Banning, Calif., and attended the University of California at Los Angeles from 1950 to 1953. While at UCLA he held a job as an aircraft assembler for Douglas Aircraft Company.
He enlisted as a Naval Aviation Cadet at Santa Ana, Calif., in 1953, and was commissioned a Marine Corps second lieutenant in Nov. 1954. He was released from active duty three years later. In 1958 he enrolled in California State Polytechnic College at San Luis Obispo where he received a bachelor of science degree in aeronautical engineering.
Peterson is a fellow of the Society of Experimental Test Pilots and 2002 recipient of the Tony LeVier Flight Safety Award. He was honored by NASA with an exceptional leadership award for his work on space shuttle STS-1. In 2003 he was inducted into the Aerospace Walk of Honor.
Peterson passed away on May 1, 2006.

—--Biennale from wikipedia —--
The Venice International Film Festival is part of the Venice Biennale. The famous Golden Lion is awarded to the best film screening at the competition.
Biennale (Italian: [bi.enˈnaːle]), Italian for "biennial" or "every other year", is any event that happens every two years. It is most commonly used within the art world to describe large-scale international contemporary art exhibitions. As such the term was popularised by Venice Biennale, which was first held in 1895. Since the 1990s, the terms "biennale" and "biennial" have been interchangeably used in a more generic way - to signify a large-scale international survey show of contemporary art that recurs at regular intervals but not necessarily biannual (such as triennials, Documenta, Skulptur Projekte Münster).[1] The phrase has also been used for other artistic events, such as the "Biennale de Paris", "Kochi-Muziris Biennale", Berlinale (for the Berlin International Film Festival) and Viennale (for Vienna's international film festival).
Characteristics[edit]
According to author Federica Martini, what is at stake in contemporary biennales is the diplomatic/international relations potential as well as urban regeneration plans. Besides being mainly focused on the present (the “here and now” where the cultural event takes place and their effect of "spectacularisation of the everyday"), because of their site-specificity cultural events may refer back to,[who?] produce or frame the history of the site and communities' collective memory.[2]
The Great Exhibition in The Crystal Palace in Hyde Park, London, in 1851, the first attempt to condense the representation of the world within a unitary exhibition space.
A strong and influent symbol of biennales and of large-scale international exhibitions in general is the Crystal Palace, the gigantic and futuristic London architecture that hosted the Great Exhibition in 1851. According to philosopher Peter Sloterdijk,[3][page needed] the Crystal Palace is the first attempt to condense the representation of the world in a unitary exhibition space, where the main exhibit is society itself in an a-historical, spectacular condition. The Crystal Palace main motives were the affirmation of British economic and national leadership and the creation of moments of spectacle. In this respect, 19th century World fairs provided a visual crystallization of colonial culture and were, at the same time, forerunners of contemporary theme parks.
The Venice Biennale as an archetype[edit]
The structure of the Venice Biennale in 2005 with an international exhibition and the national pavilions.
The Venice Biennale, a periodical large-scale cultural event founded in 1895, served as an archetype of the biennales. Meant to become a World Fair focused on contemporary art, the Venice Biennale used as a pretext the wedding anniversary of the Italian king and followed up to several national exhibitions organised after Italy unification in 1861. The Biennale immediately put forth issues of city marketing, cultural tourism and urban regeneration, as it was meant to reposition Venice on the international cultural map after the crisis due to the end of the Grand Tour model and the weakening of the Venetian school of painting. Furthermore, the Gardens where the Biennale takes place were an abandoned city area that needed to be re-functionalised. In cultural terms, the Biennale was meant to provide on a biennial basis a platform for discussing contemporary art practices that were not represented in fine arts museums at the time. The early Biennale model already included some key points that are still constitutive of large-scale international art exhibitions today: a mix of city marketing, internationalism, gentrification issues and destination culture, and the spectacular, large scale of the event.
Biennials after the 1990s[edit]
The situation of biennials has changed in the contemporary context: while at its origin in 1895 Venice was a unique cultural event, but since the 1990s hundreds of biennials have been organized across the globe. Given the ephemeral and irregular nature of some biennials, there is little consensus on the exact number of biennials in existence at any given time.[citation needed] Furthermore, while Venice was a unique agent in the presentation of contemporary art, since the 1960s several museums devoted to contemporary art are exhibiting the contemporary scene on a regular basis. Another point of difference concerns 19th century internationalism in the arts, that was brought into question by post-colonial debates and criticism of the contemporary art “ethnic marketing”, and also challenged the Venetian and World Fair’s national representation system. As a consequence of this, Eurocentric tendency to implode the whole word in an exhibition space, which characterises both the Crystal Palace and the Venice Biennale, is affected by the expansion of the artistic geographical map to scenes traditionally considered as marginal. The birth of the Havana Biennial in 1984 is widely considered an important counterpoint to the Venetian model for its prioritization of artists working in the Global South and curatorial rejection of the national pavilion model.

—---Venice Biennale from wikipedia —
The Venice Biennale (/ˌbiːɛˈnɑːleɪ, -li/; Italian: La Biennale di Venezia) is an international cultural exhibition hosted annually in Venice, Italy by the Biennale Foundation.[2][3][4] The biennale has been organised every year since 1895, which makes it the oldest of its kind. The main exhibition held in Castello, in the halls of the Arsenale and Biennale Gardens, alternates between art and architecture (hence the name biennale; biennial).[5][6][7] The other events hosted by the Foundation—spanning theatre, music, and dance—are held annually in various parts of Venice, whereas the Venice Film Festival takes place at the Lido.[8]

History
1895–1947
On April 19, 1893, the Venetian City Council passed a resolution to set up an biennial exhibition of Italian Art ("Esposizione biennale artistica nazionale") to celebrate the silver anniversary of King Umberto I and Margherita of Savoy.[11]
A year later, the council decreed "to adopt a 'by invitation' system; to reserve a section of the Exhibition for foreign artists too; to admit works by uninvited Italian artists, as selected by a jury."[12]
The first Biennale, "I Esposizione Internazionale d'Arte della Città di Venezia (1st International Art Exhibition of the City of Venice)" (although originally scheduled for April 22, 1894) was opened on April 30, 1895, by the Italian King and Queen, Umberto I and Margherita di Savoia. The first exhibition was seen by 224,000 visitors.
The event became increasingly international in the first decades of the 20th century: from 1907 on, several countries installed national pavilions at the exhibition, with the first being from Belgium. In 1910 the first internationally well-known artists were displayed: a room dedicated to Gustav Klimt, a one-man show for Renoir, a retrospective of Courbet. A work by Picasso "Family of Saltimbanques" was removed from the Spanish salon in the central Palazzo because it was feared that its novelty might shock the public. By 1914 seven pavilions had been established: Belgium (1907), Hungary (1909), Germany (1909), Great Britain (1909), France (1912), and Russia (1914).
During World War I, the 1916 and 1918 events were cancelled.[13] In 1920 the post of mayor of Venice and president of the Biennale was split. The new secretary general, Vittorio Pica brought about the first presence of avant-garde art, notably Impressionists and Post-Impressionists.
1922 saw an exhibition of sculpture by African artists. Between the two World Wars, many important modern artists had their work exhibited there. In 1928 the Istituto Storico d'Arte Contemporanea (Historical Institute of Contemporary Art) opened, which was the first nucleus of archival collections of the Biennale. In 1930 its name was changed into Historical Archive of Contemporary Art.
In 1930, the Biennale was transformed into an Ente Autonomo (Autonomous Board) by Royal Decree with law no. 33 of 13-1-1930. Subsequently, the control of the Biennale passed from the Venice city council to the national Fascist government under Benito Mussolini. This brought on a restructuring, an associated financial boost, as well as a new president, Count Giuseppe Volpi di Misurata. Three entirely new events were established, including the Biennale Musica in 1930, also referred to as International Festival of Contemporary Music; the Venice Film Festival in 1932, which they claim as the first film festival in history,[14] also referred to as Venice International Film Festival; and the Biennale Theatro in 1934, also referred to as International Theatre Festival.
In 1933 the Biennale organized an exhibition of Italian art abroad. From 1938, Grand Prizes were awarded in the art exhibition section.
During World War II, the activities of the Biennale were interrupted: 1942 saw the last edition of the events. The Film Festival restarted in 1946, the Music and Theatre festivals were resumed in 1947, and the Art Exhibition in 1948.[15]
1948–1973[edit]
The Art Biennale was resumed in 1948 with a major exhibition of a recapitulatory nature. The Secretary General, art historian Rodolfo Pallucchini, started with the Impressionists and many protagonists of contemporary art including Chagall, Klee, Braque, Delvaux, Ensor, and Magritte, as well as a retrospective of Picasso's work. Peggy Guggenheim was invited to exhibit her collection, later to be permanently housed at Ca' Venier dei Leoni.
1949 saw the beginning of renewed attention to avant-garde movements in European—and later worldwide—movements in contemporary art. Abstract expressionism was introduced in the 1950s, and the Biennale is credited with importing Pop Art into the canon of art history by awarding the top prize to Robert Rauschenberg in 1964.[16] From 1948 to 1972, Italian architect Carlo Scarpa did a series of remarkable interventions in the Biennale's exhibition spaces.
In 1954 the island San Giorgio Maggiore provided the venue for the first Japanese Noh theatre shows in Europe. 1956 saw the selection of films following an artistic selection and no longer based upon the designation of the participating country. The 1957 Golden Lion went to Satyajit Ray's Aparajito which introduced Indian cinema to the West.
1962 included Arte Informale at the Art Exhibition with Jean Fautrier, Hans Hartung, Emilio Vedova, and Pietro Consagra. The 1964 Art Exhibition introduced continental Europe to Pop Art (The Independent Group had been founded in Britain in 1952). The American Robert Rauschenberg was the first American artist to win the Gran Premio, and the youngest to date.
The student protests of 1968 also marked a crisis for the Biennale. Student protests hindered the opening of the Biennale. A resulting period of institutional changes opened and ending with a new Statute in 1973. In 1969, following the protests, the Grand Prizes were abandoned. These resumed in 1980 for the Mostra del Cinema and in 1986 for the Art Exhibition.[17]
In 1972, for the first time, a theme was adopted by the Biennale, called "Opera o comportamento" ("Work or Behaviour").
Starting from 1973 the Music Festival was no longer held annually. During the year in which the Mostra del Cinema was not held, there was a series of "Giornate del cinema italiano" (Days of Italian Cinema) promoted by sectorial bodies in campo Santa Margherita, in Venice.[18]
1974–1998[edit]
1974 saw the start of the four-year presidency of Carlo Ripa di Meana. The International Art Exhibition was not held (until it was resumed in 1976). Theatre and cinema events were held in October 1974 and 1975 under the title Libertà per il Cile (Freedom for Chile)—a major cultural protest against the dictatorship of Augusto Pinochet.
On 15 November 1977, the so-called Dissident Biennale (in reference to the dissident movement in the USSR) opened. Because of the ensuing controversies within the Italian left wing parties, president Ripa di Meana resigned at the end of the year.[19]
In 1979 the new presidency of Giuseppe Galasso (1979-1982) began. The principle was laid down whereby each of the artistic sectors was to have a permanent director to organise its activity.
In 1980, the Architecture section of the Biennale was set up. The director, Paolo Portoghesi, opened the Corderie dell'Arsenale to the public for the first time. At the Mostra del Cinema, the awards were brought back into being (between 1969 and 1979, the editions were non-competitive). In 1980, Achille Bonito Oliva and Harald Szeemann introduced "Aperto", a section of the exhibition designed to explore emerging art. Italian art historian Giovanni Carandente directed the 1988 and 1990 editions. A three-year gap was left afterwards to make sure that the 1995 edition would coincide with the 100th anniversary of the Biennale.[13]
The 1993 edition was directed by Achille Bonito Oliva. In 1995, Jean Clair was appointed to be the Biennale's first non-Italian director of visual arts[20] while Germano Celant served as director in 1997.
For the Centenary in 1995, the Biennale promoted events in every sector of its activity: the 34th Festival del Teatro, the 46th art exhibition, the 46th Festival di Musica, the 52nd Mostra del Cinema.[21]
1999–present[edit]
In 1999 and 2001, Harald Szeemann directed two editions in a row (48th & 49th) bringing in a larger representation of artists from Asia and Eastern Europe and more young artists than usual and expanded the show into several newly restored spaces of the Arsenale.
In 1999 a new sector was created for live shows: DMT (Dance Music Theatre).
The 50th edition, 2003, directed by Francesco Bonami, had a record number of seven co-curators involved, including Hans Ulrich Obrist, Catherine David, Igor Zabel, Hou Hanru and Massimiliano Gioni.
The 51st edition of the Biennale opened in June 2005, curated, for the first time by two women, Maria de Corral and Rosa Martinez. De Corral organized "The Experience of Art" which included 41 artists, from past masters to younger figures. Rosa Martinez took over the Arsenale with "Always a Little Further." Drawing on "the myth of the romantic traveler" her exhibition involved 49 artists, ranging from the elegant to the profane.
In 2007, Robert Storr became the first director from the United States to curate the Biennale (the 52nd), with a show entitled Think with the Senses – Feel with the Mind. Art in the Present Tense.
Swedish curator Daniel Birnbaum was artistic director of the 2009 edition entitled "Fare Mondi // Making Worlds".
The 2011 edition was curated by Swiss curator Bice Curiger entitled "ILLUMInazioni – ILLUMInations".
The Biennale in 2013 was curated by the Italian Massimiliano Gioni. His title and theme, Il Palazzo Enciclopedico / The Encyclopedic Palace, was adopted from an architectural model by the self-taught Italian-American artist Marino Auriti. Auriti's work, The Encyclopedic Palace of the World was lent by the American Folk Art Museum and exhibited in the first room of the Arsenale for the duration of the biennale. For Gioni, Auriti's work, "meant to house all worldly knowledge, bringing together the greatest discoveries of the human race, from the wheel to the satellite," provided an analogous figure for the "biennale model itself...based on the impossible desire to concentrate the infinite worlds of contemporary art in a single place: a task that now seems as dizzyingly absurd as Auriti's dream."[22]
Curator Okwui Enwezor was responsible for the 2015 edition.[23] He was the first African-born curator of the biennial. As a catalyst for imagining different ways of imagining multiple desires and futures Enwezor commissioned special projects and programs throughout the Biennale in the Giardini. This included a Creative Time Summit, e-flux journal's SUPERCOMMUNITY, Gulf Labor Coalition, The Invisible Borders Trans-African Project and Abounaddara.[24][25]
The 2017 Biennale, titled Viva Arte Viva, was directed by French curator Christine Macel who called it an "exhibition inspired by humanism".[26] German artist Franz Erhard Walter won the Golden Lion for best artist, while Carolee Schneemann was awarded a posthumous Golden Lion for Lifetime Achievement.[27]
The 2019 Biennale, titled May You Live In Interesting Times, was directed by American-born curator Ralph Rugoff.[28]
The 2022 edition was curated by Italian curator Cecilia Alemani entitled "The Milk of Dreams" after a book by British-born Mexican surrealist painter Leonora Carrington.[29]
The Biennale has an attendance today of over 500,000 visitors.[30][31][32]
Role in the art market[edit]
When the Venice Biennale was founded in 1895, one of its main goals was to establish a new market for contemporary art. Between 1942 and 1968 a sales office assisted artists in finding clients and selling their work,[33] a service for which it charged 10% commission. Sales remained an intrinsic part of the biennale until 1968, when a sales ban was enacted. An important practical reason why the focus on non-commodities has failed to decouple Venice from the market is that the biennale itself lacks the funds to produce, ship and install these large-scale works. Therefore, the financial involvement of dealers is widely regarded as indispensable;[16] as they regularly front the funding for production of ambitious projects.[34] Furthermore, every other year the Venice Biennale coincides with nearby Art Basel, the world's prime commercial fair for modern and contemporary art. Numerous galleries with artists on show in Venice usually bring work by the same artists to Basel.[35]
Central Pavilion and Arsenale[edit]
The formal Biennale is based at a park, the Giardini. The Giardini includes a large exhibition hall that houses a themed exhibition curated by the Biennale's director.
Initiated in 1980, the Aperto began as a fringe event for younger artists and artists of a national origin not represented by the permanent national pavilions. This is usually staged in the Arsenale and has become part of the formal biennale programme. In 1995 there was no Aperto so a number of participating countries hired venues to show exhibitions of emerging artists. From 1999, both the international exhibition and the Aperto were held as one exhibition, held both at the Central Pavilion and the Arsenale. Also in 1999, a $1 million renovation transformed the Arsenale area into a cluster of renovated shipyards, sheds and warehouses, more than doubling the Arsenale's exhibition space of previous years.[36]
A special edition of the 54th Biennale was held at Padiglione Italia of Torino Esposizioni – Sala Nervi (December 2011 – February 2012) for the 150th Anniversary of Italian Unification. The event was directed by Vittorio Sgarbi
BRUNO PREMIANI
Doom Patrol 93
Bruno Premiani was the first and main artist on DC's 'Doom Patrol' series. This series, about a trio with special abilities (Elasti-Girl, Negative-Man and Robotman), led by a man in a wheelchair, has a striking resemblance to Marvel's 'X-Men' series. However, 'Doom Patrol' debuted June 1963 and 'X-Men' three months later. Before doing 'Doom Patrol', Bruno Premiani made a rare appearance inking 'The Rip Van Winkle of Smallville' in 1955. In 1964, Premiani was also the artist on 'Kid Flash, Aqualad and Robin', a spin off with Batman's sidekick Robin, Aquaman's sidekick Aqualad and a younger version of the Flash.
Bruno Premiani (1924-1984?) was an illustrator known for his work for several comic book publishers, particularly DC Comics.
Born in Trieste, Italy in 1924, Premiani achieved some fame for his comics illustration work, most notably the original incarnations of the Doom Patrol in 1963 and the Teen Titans in 1964, both series being cult favourites that have survived in one form or another since their original creation for the DC Comics universe. He is also cited as the original artist for the first adventures of Cave Carson, a spelunker/geologist and adventurer also part of DC's fictional pantheon since 1960, and is among the first published Tomahawk artists. His work in the field dates as far back as 1937 in the pages of Detective Comics.
He is believed to have died in Argentina in 1984.

Bruno Premiani
(4/1/1907 - 17/8/1984, Italy)
Bruno Premiani was an Italian Anti-fascist with a passion for history, who became a successful comic book artist in Argentina and the United States. Born in Trieste in the Austro-Hungarian empire as the son of a Slovenian Imperial Railway employee and an Italian mother, Giordano Bruno Premiani has lived in Argentina for most of his life. Most American sources list his birth year as 1924, but Italian police records mention 4 January 1907. From 1921 to 1925, Premiani studied at the high school of arts and crafts in Trieste, which was a part of Italy by now.
Not happy with the fascism that had taken over Italy, Premiano took the boat to Argentina in 1930. There, he began drawing for the Agencia Wisner advertising shop and the daily newspaper Crítica. For this newspaper, he did the educational comic section 'Seen and Heard' which ran from 1932 to 1940. In the meantime, the Italian government kept track of Premiani's anti-fascist activities for the Crítica daily, and stated that Premiani was to be arrested when he got back to Italy. Premiani only returned to Italy once, to bury his mother in the early 1950s.
During the 1940s, Premiani continued to work as an illustrator for Argentine magazines, such as Billiken and Léoplan. From 1947, Premiani illustrated a great number of comic adaptations of literary classics in the 'Patoruzito Classics' series, which appeared in Dante Quinterno's Patoruzito magazine.
Between 1948 and 1952, Premiani lived in the United States, where he began a longtime collaboration with National/DC Comics. He started out working with the historical 'Tomahawk' character and 'Pow-Wow Smith Indian Detective' for Detective Comics. He also worked at Joe Simon and Jack Kirby's Crestwood studios, and made comic biographies of US histocial figures for the State Department. In 1960, Premiani returned to live in the States once again. Around this time, he had already contributed to Gilberton's Classics Illustrated series, and also worked as an inker for Jack Kirby and Stan Drake and on Curt Swan's 'The Rip Van Winkle of Smallville'.
remiani's best known work for National/DC was the creation of 'Doom Patrol' with Arnold Drake in 1963. This series, about a trio with special abilities (Elasti-Girl, Negative-Man and Robotman), led by a man in a wheelchair, has a striking resemblance to Marvel's 'X-Men' series. However, 'Doom Patrol' debuted June 1963 and 'X-Men' three months later. Until 1968, Premiani drew most of the 'Doom Patrol' stories in My Greatest Adventures and later the eponymous comic book.
In addition, he did the cover and interior art for DC's 'Brave & Bold' series, starring Cave Carson. In 1964, Premiani was the artist on 'Kid Flash, Aqualad and Robin', a spin-off with Batman's sidekick Robin, Aquaman's sidekick Aqualad and a younger version of the Flash. He eventually returned to Argentina, where he died in 1984.

Gallery tells tragic love story
Just off the lobby of the new Cincinnati Wing, a small gallery holds a larger than life love story. Artists Frank Duveneck and Elizabeth Boott - star-crossed lovers - were kept apart by ambition, money and class. It's the story of a doting father's disapproval, a young artist's perseverance, and love realized, cut short by tragic illness.
It begins in 1879 when Elizabeth Otis Lyman Boott, known as Lizzie, is 33 and living with her widowed father, Francis Boott in Italy. That summer, Lizzie and her father decided to study with Duveneck in Munich. They admired his first show in Boston and knew of his reputation as an excellent teacher.
But neither Duveneck's talent nor his teaching was enough to recommend him to Boott as a match for his daughter. The Bootts were Boston Brahmins; Duveneck was a penniless German-American Catholic. Two years younger than Lizzie, he spoke with an accent and his people ran a beer garden in Covington. But Duveneck was charming, with a cadre of students who loved him as much for his jokes and good nature as his instruction. Lizzie was taken with him immediately.
"We found him and were pleased," she wrote to a former colleague. "He is a remarkable looking young man, and a gentleman, which I did not expect. He has a fine head and a keen eye and the perceptions strongly developed."
Lizzie encouraged Duveneck to move to Florence with the idea of having him teach a class of women artists. She also promised to drum up portrait business for him among her wealthy friends. Duveneck agreed, moving to Florence that fall along with more than a dozen of his painter friends. The Bootts' 15th century Villa Castellani became the meeting place for a lively group of young art students. The couple soon became romantically involved and by Christmas 1880 agreed to marry. A year later - in a pattern indicative of their courtship - the engagement was called off.
Lizzie's desire to be a professional painter conflicted with her feelings for Duveneck. By all accounts he was lazy; she was ambitious. She was the center of her father's universe and this loud, generous, crude character broke into the sophisticated solitude they enjoyed.
"Fraught with tensions of manners, money and class, Lizzie and Frank's relationship could not fail to interest Henry James, a frequent visitor to the Bootts' Italian home," writes Duveneck scholar Carol M. Osborne in an essay on the couple. "In literary guise Lizzie and her father, together with others in their ... circle of Anglo-American friends, often appear in James' fiction. In Portrait of a Lady (1881), a portion of which was written while the novelist lived nearby in the Villa Brichieri, James used the Villa Castellani imaginatively as the home of Gilbert Osmond and his daughter, Pansy."
For the next five years the couple spent more time apart than together, but when they found themselves in Paris in 1885, they decided their feelings remained. A few months shy of Lizzie's 40th birthday, they were married on March 25, 1886. Lizzie wore dark brown as was the custom of the time and wore the dress again when Duveneck painted her portrait two years later.
After a month long wedding trip, the newlyweds rejoined Francis Boott at the Villa Castellani and set to work in space converted into a studio. Speculation about the marriage continued - Francis Boott made Duveneck sign the equivalent of a pre-nuptial agreement that said he would relinquish any right to Lizzie's fortune.
As winter approached the couple, expecting their first child, moved from the villa to an apartment near the American Embassy in Florence where their son, Francis, was born on Dec. 18. Five months later, convinced Duveneck was not a fortune hunter, Boott restored Duveneck's right to Lizzie's money.
Early in 1888, the little family returned to Paris where Duveneck reconnected with his Munich friends. Lizzie, saddled with a child, husband and elderly father, had a new view of Parisian life. But despite it all, she took up watercolors again, and she and Duveneck submitted work to the jury for the 1888 Paris Salon.
On the day the jury voted, Lizzie went to bed with a chill. Four days later she died of pneumonia.
Duveneck returned to the States in 1889, placed his son in the care of the Boott family in Boston at the insistence of his father-in-law, and settled in Cincinnati where he worked on a funerary monument for his beloved wife's grave. A simple effigy covered with a palm leaf was cast in bronze and later copied in plaster - one awarded an honorable mention at the Salon of 1895 - and sent to the Boston Museum of Fine Arts (among others) where his son could see it.

Welcome to New York's Upper East side where the wealthy and connected mingle at benefits and try to deal with their always dramatic love lives, not to mention picking colleges. Blair Waldorf is the so-called toast of adolescence in her world; she and her friends, Kati Farkas and Isabel Coates, go to a prep school and fancy parties with their rich parents. Blair is envied by her adversaries because she is thought to have the perfect life, not just because of her gorgeous boyfriend, Nate Archibald, but because she's also planning on getting into her dream college,Yale. With everyone worried about college(or procrastinating on worrying, which everyone seems to be doing), and senior year dragging along, her seemingly perfect life is interrupted by her ex-best friend, the beautiful Serena van der Woodsen, coming back into town after getting kicked out of boarding school. Serena comes back into her life, and into the eyes of Blair's boy friend. When everything Blair knows starts to fall apart, everyone will realize that her life is far from perfect. Will life in the the Upper East Side redeem itself of what it's really supposed to be? Or will the false facade reveal that the rich have the same problems as the not so rich (Jenny and Dan Humphrey), if not more. And just maybe Jenny and Dan are all the more happy with their simple, not so expectant lives.
Our Lady & The English Martyrs, Cambridge
stepneyrobarts.blogspot.co.uk/2013/02/our-lady-english-ma...
Yesterday I revisited St Peter for internals and finished of Cambridge, visiting seven Victorian built churches only one of which, Our Lady & The English Martyrs, is worth writing up.
At first sight I wrote OLEM off as a Victorian Gothic monstrosity but as I wandered around the exterior I was struck by the quality of the building and the interior stunned me with lots of rather good glass and impressive architecture (oh and apart from three revisits, Babraham, Guilden Morden and Stow cum Quy, that finished the north west quadrant).
The Church of Our Lady and the English Martyrs, or OLEM, is situated in the heart of the city of Cambridge. An imposing example of the 19th Century Gothic Revival, it was built to the designs of Dunn & Hansom of Newcastle between 1885 and 1890, and founded solely by Mrs Yolande Marie Louise Lyne-Stephens, a former ballet dancer at the Paris Opera and Drury Lane, London, and widow of a wealthy banker. She promised to build the church on the feast of Our Lady of the Assumption, and Monsignor Christopher Scott - the first Rector - also wished to commemorate the Catholic Martyrs who died between 1535 and 1681, over thirty of whom had been in residence at the University.
Designed by architects Dunn and Hansom of Newcastle and built by the Cambridge firm of Rattee and Kett, OLEM is constructed in Casterton, Ancaster and Combe Down Stone. The church is a traditional cruciform structure in the early-decorated style with a large tower at the crossing, a polygonal apse and a west bell tower with a 65-metre spire, visible for miles around Cambridge. Quite often, it is quoted by visitors and local residents as a location point. The approximate internal dimensions of the church are: length 48 meters [156 ft] width across the aisles 16 meters [51 ft] width at the transepts 22 meters [71 ft], the height of the nave 15 meters [71ft].
Inside and over the west door stands the figure of Our Lady of the Assumption crowned with lilies and standing on the crescent moon with the vanquished serpent beneath. The west window shows the English Martyrs arranged in two principal groups, the clergy on the south side with St John Fisher in their midst and the laity on the north grouped round St Thomas More.
Beside the South aisle is an ancient statue of Our Lady with the Child Jesus. This statue is understood to be a gift in 1850 from Emmanuel College, which was built on the site of a Dominican Priory dating back to 1274. The Church of the Black Friars of Cambridge contained a statue of Our Blessed Lady to which much pilgrimage was had. Although unconfirmed this could be that statue.
The Chapel of the Holy Souls with the book of Remembrance is located at the west end of the south aisle. The sculpture above the altar depicts the solace and relief of the Holy Souls in Purgatory through the intercession of Our Lady and the angel who comforted Our Lord in Gethsemane. The Chapel is now appropriately used at the two great Christian celebrations: at Easter for the Empty Tomb indicating the Risen Lord, and at Christmas for the Crib.
The aisle windows were almost completely destroyed when the church was struck by a bomb on 1941, but were subsequently replaced in their original form. They epitomise the various sufferings of the English Martyrs, their being brought before the Council, racked, hung, drawn and quartered in the sight and sympathy of the faithful. The windows of the north aisle portray Carthusians, St Thomas Moore, B. Margaret Pole and others, while the south aisle is made a “Fisher Aisle”, devoted to scenes from the life of St John, Cardinal Bishop of Rochester, who in so many important ways is identified with Cambridge.
The best general impression of the interior is obtained from the gateway in the iron screen dividing the nave from the ante-chapel. The heads of the four great preachers of Our Lady’s Graces are carved in the four corners of the nave. The windows along the nave represent saints connected with the Church in Britain, arranged approximately in chronological order from east to west with a few additional figures in the eastern windows.
The Rood which is between the nave and the sanctuary is of the type known as “Majestas”; the figure of Our Lord, with glorified wounds, robed in alb, stole and pallium [as High Priest] and crowned [as King “reigning from the Tree”]. This was the earliest type of crucifix; the realistic figure, now almost universal, did not come into general use until the beginning of the thirteenth century. The cross, inspired by that at Nuremberg, is about 6 metres high, carved in oak; the figures of Christ and of Our Lady and of Saint John are of Kauri pine. They were carved locally by Mr. B. Maclean Leach and completed and blessed in 1914.
Beyond the present, modern altar is the High Altar with the relics of Saints Felix and Constantia, martyrs of the early Church. The tabernacle and ornaments of the altar are of exquisite French workmanship from Lyons. The baldacchino which covers the High Altar is similar to that over the tomb of Robert the Wise (1275-1343) at Santa Chiara, Naples. It is one of the earliest forms of adornment of a Christian altar. At the top is the figure of Our Lord in glory supported on each side by angels in act of adoration.
The design and the re-ordering of the sanctuary was done by Mr. Gerard Goalen of Harlow after the Second Vatican Council. On 7th April, 1973, Bishop Charles Grant consecrated the present central. The original High Altar has subsequently been used mainly for reservation of the Blessed Sacrament.

Earlier today while shooting Derek up in the Tenderloin District, I ran into Frida. Frida asked if she could sit for a portrait as well and I told her more about my $2 Portrait Project and she said ok.
Frida was born and raised in San Francisco. I asked Frida if she had any kids and she told me she did. She said she had 11 of them. The oldest one was 26 she said and the youngest was 6. She also said she had 10 grandkids.
Frida told me that one of her sons had just almost been killed last month but that God saved him. She said that he was shot in a case of mistaken identity by someone when he was coming out of his house. Thank God he saved him for us she said. I asked Frida if she saw her children a lot and she smiled back and said every day.
Frida told me that she had her 11 different children with 3 different men. Two were Puerto Rican, she added. Frida told me that all three of the men were dead now.
Frida and I talked a bit about her being out on the street. She told me that she had had an alcohol problem but that she was over it now and better. She told me that it was hard work being out on the street. She said that a lot of people will just rush right past her saying "get a job." She said what they didn't understand was that this *was* her job. That asking people for money is a lot of hard work. Especially for a woman she added. "All the time men are coming up to me and saying 'Hey Baby,'" she told me.
I told Frida that I had four kids and she smiled and asked if they were all with the same woman. I told her they were and she laughed and said, oh well, not me.
Frida was a friendly woman who smiled a lot. She seemed very happy with her life and very proud of her children.

Христианская проповедь: значение явления Господа Иисуса людям после Его воскресения
ru.godfootsteps.org/testimonies/Jesus-resurrection-why-He...
Описание: Господь Иисус был распят на кресте, тем самым выполняя работу по искуплению человечества. Почему же Он являлся людям в течение 40 дней после Своего воскресения? Каково было значение явления человеку после Его воскресения, и какая Его воля стояла за ним?
В Библии написано: «Когда они говорили о сем, Сам Иисус стал посреди них и сказал им: мир вам. Они, смутившись и испугавшись, подумали, что видят духа. Но Он сказал им: что смущаетесь, и для чего такие мысли входят в сердца ваши? Посмотрите на руки Мои и на ноги Мои; это Я Сам; осяжите Меня и рассмотрите; ибо дух плоти и костей не имеет, как видите у Меня. И, сказав это, показал им руки и ноги. 41 Когда же они от радости еще не верили и дивились, Он сказал им: есть ли у вас здесь какая пища? Они подали Ему часть печеной рыбы и сотового меда. И, взяв, ел пред ними» (От Луки 24:36-43). Всякий раз, читая эти стихи, я завидую Петру, Иоанну и другим. Когда Иисус выполнял Свою работу в Иудее, Он всегда был со Своими учениками, днем и ночью, а после Своего воскресения Он заботился о них как и прежде, являлся им, разъяснял им Писание и учил их. Петру и другим повезло, что Господь избрал их Своими учениками и они могли слышать учения Господа Иисуса своими собственными ушами, – они были так благословенны! Впоследствии я прочел слова Бога и понял, что на самом деле за Его явлением людям после Его воскресения стояла воля Господа Иисуса и что этот поступок еще больше олицетворял всемогущество и мудрость Бога. Я по-настоящему увидел, что явление Господа Иисуса людям после Его воскресения на самом деле было таким важным!
В Божьих словах говорится: «Первое, что сделал Господь Иисус после Своего воскресения, это позволил людям увидеть Его, убедиться в Его существовании и в факте Его воскресения. Кроме того, это послужило восстановлению Его прежних отношений с людьми, когда Он трудился во плоти и был Христом, Которого можно было увидеть и осязать. Таким образом, одним из результатов этого было то, что люди уже не сомневались в том, что Господь Иисус воскрес из мертвых после распятия на кресте, как не сомневались они в совершенном Господом Иисусом труде искупления человечества. Еще одним результатом было то, что явление Господа Иисуса людям после Его воскресения с позволением увидеть Его и прикоснуться к Нему основательно утвердило их в Периоде Благодати. Начиная с этого момента, люди больше не могли вернуться к прежним временам Периода Закона в связи с “исчезновением” или “уходом” Господа Иисуса. Они должны были двигаться вперед, следуя учению Господа Иисуса и свершенному Им труду. Таким образом, в труде Периода Благодати формально наступил новый этап, и, начиная с этого момента, люди, жившие по закону, “официально” вышли из данного периода и вошли в новую эру с новым началом. Таково многообразие значений явления Господа Иисуса людям после Своего воскресения» («Божий труд, Божий характер и Сам Бог. Часть III»).
Прочитав слова Бога, я наконец понял, что явление Господа Иисуса людям в течение 40 дней после Его воскресения имело два значения. Одно – Он пришел сказать людям, что Бог завершил Период Закона, начал Период Благодати и приведет человечество в новую эру. Другое значение заключалось в том, что Бог делал это, чтобы люди могли утверждать, что Господь Иисус – это Сам воплотившийся Бог, и тем самым укреплял их веру в Бога.
1. Господь Иисус воскрес и явился людям, чтобы ввести их в новую эру и прочно утвердить их в Периоде Благодати
Господь Иисус возвестил о начале Периода Благодати и завершил Период Закона. Он выразил способ «Покайтесь, ибо приблизилось Царство Небесное» (От Матфея 4:17). и совершил множество чудес, таких как исцеление больных, изгнание бесов, возвращение хромым возможности ходить, а слепым – видеть и прочее, чтобы люди могли наслаждаться обильной благодатью, исходившей от Бога. Но люди того времени не знали Божьей работы, и у них не было истинного понимания того, что Иисус – это воплощение Бога. Когда Господа Иисуса распяли, люди просто не осознавали, что это означало завершение Богом работы искупления, и поэтому впали в негативность и слабость. Люди начали сомневаться в личности Господа Иисуса, а некоторые даже вернулись в храм и стали соблюдать закон Ветхого Завета. Таким образом, людям по-прежнему грозила смерть по закону за их грехи, и работа, которую Господь Иисус совершил, чтобы искупить человечество, оказалась наполовину невыполненной. Господь Иисус тщательно исследовал самые сокровенные чувства людей и прекрасно понимал их нужды и недостатки. Поэтому после Своего воскресения Он явился и сначала говорил со Своими учениками, установил с ними реальный контакт и дал им возможность увидеть, что Он действительно вернулся из мертвых, выполнил Свою работу по искуплению человечества и начал новый период. После этого человечество оставило закон в прошлом и вошло в новый период – Период Благодати. Под руководством работы и слов Господа Иисуса люди начали практиковать в соответствии с Его учением, они несли крест, следовали за Господом и руководствовались Его учением: «Идите по всему миру и проповедуйте Евангелие всей твари» (От Марка 16:15). Таким образом, они начали проповедовать Евангелие Царства Небесного и свидетельствовали об имени Господа Иисуса, чтобы все люди могли принять это и достичь Его спасения. Сегодня Евангелие Господа Иисуса распространилось по всему миру, что полностью является результатом явления Иисуса людям после Его воскресения из мертвых. Из этого мы видим, насколько значимым было Его явление людям после воскресения!
2. Явление Господа Иисуса людям после Его воскресения позволило им утверждать, что Он был воплощением Самого Бога, укрепив тем самым их веру в Него
В Божьих словах говорится: «В то время как Господь Иисус совершал Свой труд во плоти, большинство Его последователей не могли полностью подтвердить Его личность и то, что Он говорил. Когда Он взошел на крест, отношение Его последователей переросло в выжидание. Все время, с момента Его распятия и до погребения, людьми владело разочарование. В это время они даже начали переходить от сомнений к отрицанию всего того, о чем говорил Господь Иисус, будучи во плоти. Когда же Он вышел из гробницы и начал являться людям, большинство людей, видевших Его собственными глазами или слышавших о Его воскресении, постепенно сменили свое отрицание на скептицизм. Они по-настоящему согласились с тем, что Господь Иисус является Христом во плоти, только лишь тогда, когда Он позволил Фоме “вложить руки в ребра” Его, когда Он после Своего воскресения преломил хлеб и ел его перед толпой, после чего ел перед ними печеную рыбу. Можно сказать, это было похоже на то, как если бы духовное тело из плоти и крови предстало перед людьми и пробудило их ото сна, ведь стоящий перед ними Сын Человеческий был Тем, Кто существовал с незапамятных времен. У Него было тело, Он имел плоть и кости, и Он уже долгое время жил среди людей и вкушал пищу с ними… В этот момент люди почувствовали, что Его существование реально и прекрасно. Они также были радостными и счастливыми, одновременно с этим их переполняли эмоции. Его повторное явление помогло людям по-настоящему увидеть Его смирение, ощутить Его близость, Его стремление и привязанность к человечеству. За время этого краткого воссоединения людям, видевшим Господа Иисуса, показалось, что перед ними прошла целая жизнь. Их растерянные, обескураженные, боязливые, встревоженные, тоскующие и оцепеневшие сердца обрели утешение. Они больше не были наполнены сомнениями и разочарованием, потому что теперь они обрели надежду и упование. Стоящий перед ними Сын Человеческий всегда будет рядом с ними. Он всегда будет для них крепостью и убежищем» («Божий труд, Божий характер и Сам Бог. Часть III»).
Божьи слова проясняют еще одно значение явления Господа Иисуса людям после Его воскресения. Господь Иисус воплотился среди людей и выполнял Свою работу в течение трех с половиной лет, и многие приняли Его спасение и последовали за Господом. Однако большинство людей не понимали по-настоящему, что Господь Иисус – это Христос и что Он – Сам Бог. Поэтому перед распятием Господа Иисуса они наблюдали за тем, как разворачивались события, начали сомневаться в душе и спрашивали себя: «Действительно ли Господь Иисус – Бог? Если Он – Христос и Сам Бог, то как же римские власти могли Его схватить, воины – избивать и осмеивать, а затем распять? Особенно когда Господа Иисуса распинали на кресте, они чувствовали полное разочарование в Нем, отрицали, что Он – воплощение Самого Бога, и отрицали сказанные Им слова, полагая, что Иисус умрет, как обычный человек, и не сможет выжить. Господь Иисус знал, что вера людей настолько мала, что они не знают Господа, и что еще больше людей станут слабыми и подавленными из-за того, что Он был распят. Поэтому после того как Господь Иисус воскрес из мертвых, Он пришел к Своим ученикам и говорил с ними, Он разъяснял Писания и общался с ними, Он ел с ними и позволил Фоме прикоснуться к Своим рукам и боку и так далее. На основании сказанных Господом Иисусом слов и совершенных Им действий после Его воскресения Его ученики утверждали, что Иисус действительно воскрес, и они знали, что Он – тот же Господь, Который до этого ел, пребывал и жил с ними, что Он – тот же Господь, Который проповедовал им, заботился о них и направлял их, Который любит их так же, как и прежде, что Он заботится о них и не оставил их и что Он – рядом с ними. Господь Иисус – воплощение Самого Бога, Непреходящего, вечной опоры человека, крепкой башни и убежища человека. Хотя Господь Иисус и был распят, Он – хранитель ключей от загробной жизни и имеет силу вернуться к жизни, ибо Он – Сам единый Бог… После этого люди больше не чувствовали себя потерянными или сбитыми с толку и больше не сомневались в Господе Иисусе, но, напротив, смогли верить в Иисуса и полагаться на Него всем сердцем. Это – полностью результат того, что Господь Иисус явился Своим ученикам и говорил с ними после Своего воскресения из мертвых.

Documenta From Wikipedia,
The Fridericianum during documenta (13)
documenta is an exhibition of contemporary art which takes place every five years in Kassel, Germany. It was founded by artist, teacher and curator Arnold Bode in 1955 as part of the Bundesgartenschau (Federal Horticultural Show) which took place in Kassel at that time.[1] It was an attempt to bring Germany up to speed with modern art, both banishing and repressing the cultural darkness of Nazism.[2] This first documenta featured many artists who are generally considered to have had a significant influence on modern art (such as Picasso and Kandinsky). The more recent documentas feature art from all continents; nonetheless most of it is site-specific.
Every documenta is limited to 100 days of exhibition, which is why it is often referred to as the "museum of 100 days".[3] Documenta is not a selling exhibition. It rarely coincides with the three other major art world events: the Venice Biennale, Art Basel and Skulptur Projekte Münster, but in 2017, all four were open simultaneously.
Etymology of documenta
The name of the exhibition is an invented word. The term is supposed to demonstrate the intention of every exhibition (in particular of the first documenta in 1955) to be a documentation of modern art which was not available for the German public during the Nazi era. Rumour spread from those close to Arnold Bode that it was relevant for the coinage of the term that the Latin word documentum could be separated into docere (Latin for teach) and mens (Latin for intellect) and therefore thought it to be a good word to describe the intention and the demand of the documenta.[4]
Each edition of documenta has commissioned its own visual identity, most of which have conformed to the typographic style of solely using lowercase letters, which originated at the Bauhaus.[5]
History
Stadtverwaldung by Joseph Beuys, oaktree in front of the museum Fridericianum, documenta 7
Art professor and designer Arnold Bode from Kassel was the initiator of the first documenta. Originally planned as a secondary event to accompany the Bundesgartenschau, this attracted more than 130,000 visitors in 1955. The exhibition centred less on "contemporary art“, that is art made after 1945: instead, Bode wanted to show the public works which had been known as "Entartete Kunst" in Germany during the Nazi era: Fauvism, Expressionism, Cubism, Blauer Reiter, Futurism and Pittura Metafisica. Therefore, abstract art, in particular the abstract paintings of the 1920s and 1930s, was the focus of interest in this exhibition.
Over time, the focus shifted to contemporary art. At first, the show was limited to works from Europe, but soon covered works by artists from the Americas, Africa and Asia. 4. documenta, the first ever to turn a profit, featured a selection of Pop Art, Minimal Art, and Kinetic Art.[6] Adopting the theme of Questioning Reality – Pictorial Worlds Today, the 1972 documenta radically redefined what could be considered art by featuring minimal and conceptual art, marking a turning point in the public acceptance of those styles.[7] Also, it devoted a large section to the work of Adolf Wolfli, the great Swiss outsider, then unknown. Joseph Beuys performed repeatedly under the auspices of his utopian Organization for Direct Democracy.[8] Additionally, the 1987 documenta show signaled another important shift with the elevation of design to the realm of art – showing an openness to postmodern design.[9] Certain key political dates for wide-reaching social and cultural upheavals, such as 1945, 1968 or 1976/77, became chronological markers of documenta X (1997), along which art's political, social, cultural and aesthetic exploratory functions were traced.[10] Documenta11 was organized around themes like migration, urbanization and the post-colonial experience,[11] with documentary photography, film and video as well as works from far-flung locales holding the spotlight.[7] In 2012, documenta (13) was described as "[a]rdently feminist, global and multimedia in approach and including works by dead artists and selected bits of ancient art".[12]
Criticism
documenta typically gives its artists at least two years to conceive and produce their projects, so the works are often elaborate and intellectually complex.[13] However, the participants are often not publicised before the very opening of the exhibition. At documenta (13), the official list of artists was not released until the day the show opened.[14] Even though curators have often claimed to have gone outside the art market in their selection, participants have always included established artists. In the documenta (13), for example, art critic Jerry Saltz identified more than a third of the artists represented by the renowned Marian Goodman Gallery in the show.[14]
Directors
The first four documentas, organized by Arnold Bode, established the exhibition's international credentials. Since the fifth documenta (1972), a new artistic director has been named for each documenta exhibition by a committee of experts. Documenta 8 was put together in two years instead of the usual five. The original directors, Edy de Wilde and Harald Szeemann, were unable to get along and stepped down. They were replaced by Manfred Schneckenburger, Edward F. Fry, Wulf Herzogenrath, Armin Zweite, and Vittorio Fagone.[15] Coosje van Bruggen helped select artists for documenta 7, the 1982 edition. documenta IX's team of curators consisted of Jan Hoet, Piero Luigi Tazzi, Denys Zacharopoulos, and Bart de Baere.[16] For documenta X Catherine David was chosen as the first woman and the first non-German speaker to hold the post. It is also the first and unique time that its website Documenta x was conceived by a curator (swiss curator Simon Lamunière) as a part of the exhibition. The first non-European director was Okwui Enwezor for Documenta11.[17]

2012's edition was organized around a central node, the trans-Atlantic melding of two distinct individuals who first encountered each other in the "money-soaked deserts of the United Arab Emirates". As an organizing principle it is simultaneously a commentary on the romantic potentials of globalization and also a critique of how digital platforms can complicate or interrogate the nature of such relationships. Curatorial agents refer to the concept as possessing a "fricative potential for productive awkwardness," wherein a twosome is formed for the purposes of future exploration.[23]
Venues
documenta is held in different venues in Kassel. Since 1955, the fixed venue has been the Fridericianum. The documenta-Halle was built in 1992 for documenta IX and now houses some of the exhibitions. Other venues used for documenta have included the Karlsaue park, Schloss Wilhelmshöhe, the Neue Galerie, the Ottoneum, and the Kulturzentrum Schlachthof. Though Okwui Enezor notably tried to subvert the euro-centric approach documenta had taken, he instigated a series of five platforms before the Documenta11 in Vienna, Berlin, New Delhi, St Lucia, and Lagos, in an attempt to take documenta into a new post-colonial, borderless space, from which experimental cultures could emerge. documenta 12 occupied five locations, including the Fridericianum, the Wilhelmshöhe castle park and the specially constructed "Aue-Pavillon", or meadow pavilion, designed by French firm Lacaton et Vassal.[24] At documenta (13) (2012), about a fifth of the works were unveiled in places like Kabul, Afghanistan, and Banff, Canada.[13]
There are also a number of works that are usually presented outside, most notably in Friedrichsplatz, in front of the Fridericianum, and the Karlsaue park. To handle the number of artworks at documenta IX, five connected temporary "trailers" in glass and corrugated metal were built in the Karlsaue.[25] For documenta (13), French architects Anne Lacaton and Jean-Philippe Vassal constructed the temporary "Aue-Pavillon" in the park.
Rahmenbau (1977) by Haus Rucker und Co.
A few of the works exhibited at various documentas remained as purchases in Kassel museums. They include 7000 Eichen by Joseph Beuys; Rahmenbau (1977) by Haus-Rucker-Co; Laserscape Kassel (1977) by Horst H. Baumann; Traumschiff Tante Olga (1977) by Anatol Herzfeld; Vertikaler Erdkilometer by Walter De Maria; Spitzhacke (1982) by Claes Oldenburg; Man walking to the sky (1992) by Jonathan Borofsky; and Fremde by Thomas Schütte (one part of the sculptures are installed on Rotes Palais at Friedrichsplatz, the other on the roof of the Concert Hall in Lübeck).
documenta archive
The extensive volume of material that is regularly generated on the occasion of this exhibition prompted Arnold Bode to create an archive in 1961. The heart of the archive’s collection comes from the files and materials of the documenta organization. A continually expanding video and image archive is also part of the collection as are the independently organized bequests of Arnold Bode and artist Harry Kramer.
Management
Visitors
In 1992, on the occasion of documenta IX, for the first time in the history of the documenta, more than half a million people traveled to Kassel.[26] The 2002 edition of documenta attracted 650,000 visitors, more than triple Kassel's population.[27] In 2007, documenta 12 drew 754,000 paying visitors, with more than one-third of the visitors coming from abroad and guests from neighboring Netherlands, France, Belgium and Austria among the most numerous.[28] In 2012, documenta (13) had 904,992 visitors.[21]

lumbung
Short concept by ruangrupa for documenta 15
"We want to create a globally oriented, cooperative, interdisciplinary art and culture platform that will remain effective beyond the 100 days of documenta fifteen. Our curatorial approach aims at a different kind of collaborative model of resource use—economically, but also in terms of ideas, knowledge, programs, and innovation."
ruangrupa’s central curatorial approach for documenta fifteen is based on the principles of collectivity, resource building, and equal sharing. They aim to appeal not just to an art audience but to a variety of communities, and to promote local commitment and participation. Their approach is based on an international network of local, community-based organizations from the art and other cultural contexts and can be outlined by the Indonesian term lumbung. lumbung, directly translatable as “rice barn,” is a collective pot or accumulation system used in rural areas of Indonesia, where crops produced by a community are stored as a future shared common resource and distributed according to jointly determind criteria. Using lumbung as a model, documenta fifteen is a collective resource pot, operating under the logics of the commons. It is an agglomeration of ideas, stories, (wo)manpower, time, and other shareable resources. At the center of lumbung is the imagination and the building of these collective, shared resources into new models of sustainable ideas and cultural practices. This will be fostered by residencies, assemblies, public activities, and the development of tools.
Interdisciplinarity is key in this process. It is where art meets activism, management, and networking to gather support, understand environments, and identify local resources. These elements then create actions and spaces, intertwine social relations and transactions; they slowly grow and organically find a public form. This is a strategy “to live in and with society.” It imagines the relations an art institution has with its community by being an active constituent of it. Strategies are then developed based on proximity and shared desires.
The main principles of the process are:
• Providing space to gather and explore ideas
• Collective decision making
• Non-centralization
• Playing between formalities and informalities
• Practicing assembly and meeting points
• Architectural awareness
• Being spatially active to promote conversation
• A melting pot for and from everyone’s thoughts, energies, and ideas

[for the full Inauguration story, visit my blog]
Emerging into the lower levels of Union Station's Metro stop, the only way to go was outside – all the direct accesses into the main part of the station were closed off. So I went outside and hooked left to head up to the main entrance. A large crowd was amassed here full of would-be train riders – some destined for Amtrak, some for MARC, some for VRE, and others trying to get to Metro. Police officers walked the banisters calling out information.
It was a bit aggravating as people tried to figure out where which groups were supposed to go. It ultimately ended up that Amtrak went one way and MARC / VRE went another way. Metro folks were out of luck: this station was exit-only and was closed to people trying to get on. It was a bit crazy at first just trying to figure out which mass of people I was supposed to be standing in... and we were all trying to figure that out together. Once we started getting into the right groups, one of the officers led the MARC group in a chant: "MARC! MARC! MARC!" to get other would-be riders to take heed.
There was one slip-up where a guy carrying large signs reading “MARC” with an upward-pointing arrow went walking away from the crowd… and like chasing after the Pied Piper, I and many other would-be MARC riders followed. It was when he kept walking away from the train station and stopped to chat with some police officers when I inquired whether we were supposed to be following the sign, or if he was just moving it about. It was the latter… I really didn’t quite expect that answer, but I was glad I asked.
This event was a blessing in disguise. Seconds later, they started letting some people into the station (the officers were metering entering traffic so it didn’t get too crowded). With me approaching at a different angle, a police car and porta-potty formed a pick and I had almost a clear shot into the now-moving crowd. In all I waited perhaps 10 minutes to get inside, and then another 10 minutes or so inside. It wasn’t bad – I generally felt like I was moving most of that time. With much of the day gone by, the crowd itself was still in good spirits, and almost every person thanked & praised the police staff & volunteers.
Rightly so. Considering the pressure of maintaining security, controlling crowds, and offering directions – all at the same time – I’d say that they really did do a stellar job (except for that hiccup when I first arrived that morning). The force could’ve used some more officers and volunteers to provide & reiterate information, as it was often difficult to hear instructions over the wail of the crowd. Additionally, I found that the volunteers tended to be a bit lacking in information… I suspect they were trained moreso in maintaining their specific locations and duties than offering directions, and I’m sure many came from areas far beyond DC.
It would have also been immensely useful had there been better maps available. WMATA, which runs the Metro services, has an excellent base map, but all they did with it was plot a couple concentric circles to show how far things were – 1 mile, 2 miles, 3 miles. All the other maps coming from the Inauguration Committee or the District were absolutely useless, often so cluttered with information in a jack-of-all-trades map that they became inundated with too much information. Some of the news stations prepared their own maps, but the informal Google Maps mashups just didn’t cut it for the level of detail that was needed. I hope that next time the District and committees make use of WMATA’s map as a base and then tailor-make several maps geared toward specific audiences.
The lines moved more quickly thanks to the fact that the officers & volunteers were just putting people on trains... any trains... You got separated out by Amtrak, VRE, MARC Penn Line, and then MARC Brunswick / Camden Lines. After that, you just boarded whatever train was waiting... didn't matter what train your ticket was for, so long as you were going in the right direction.

la construction des Autoroutes en France - Les liaisons moins dangereuses 1972 www.dailymotion.com/video/xxi0ae?playlist=x34ije - Ministère de l'Équipement et de l'Aménagement du Territoire - Dotation par la France d'autoroutes modernes "nécessité vitale" pour palier à l'inadaptation du réseau routier de l'époque voué à la paralysie : le reportage nous montre des images d'embouteillages. Le ministre de l'Équipement et de l'Aménagement du Territoire dans les deux gouvernements de Pierre Messmer, de 1972 à 1974, Olivier Guichard explique les ambitions du programme de construction qui doit atteindre 800 km par ans en 1978. L'ouverture de section nouvelles va bon train : Nancy / Metz par exemple. Le reportage nous montre l'intérieur des bureaux d'études qui conçoivent ces autoroute dont la conception est assistée par ordinateurs dont le projet d'ensemble en 3D est visualisé sur un écran. La voix off nous informe sur le financement de ces équipements. Puis on peut voir des images de la construction du pont sur la Seine à Saint Cloud reliant l'autoroute de Normandie au périphérique, de l'échangeur de Palaiseau sur 4 niveau : record d'Europe précise le commentaire. Le reportage nous informe que des sociétés d'économies mixtes ont étés crées pour les tronçons : Paris / Lille, Paris / Marseille, Paris / Normandie. Pour accélérer la construction l’État a eu recours à des concessions privées par exemple pour le tronçon Paris / Chartres. "Les autoroutes changent le visage de la France : artères économiques favorisant le développement industriel elles permettent de revitaliser des régions en perte de vitesse et de l'intégrer dans le mouvement général de l'expansion" Sur le plan européen elles vont combler le retard de la France et réaliser son insertion. Images de l'inauguration de l'autoroute entre Paris et Bruxelles par le président Georges Pompidou. Le reportage rappel que l'autre fonction capitale des autoroute est de favoriser la sécurité. La question de la limitation de vitesse est posée au ministre de l’Équipement, qui n'y est favorable que sur certains tronçons. Un des facteur de sécurité selon le commentaire est l'humanisation des autoroutes : aires de repos, restaurants, signalisation touristiques... "Rien n'est impossible aux techniques modernes" nous apprend la voix off qui prend comme exemple le déplacement sur rail de 65 mètres d'un château classé afin de faire passer l'autoroute Lille / Dunkerque.Durée : 4 minutes 30 secondes
Sur les routes de France les ponts renaissent 1945 reconstruction de la France après la Seconde Guerre mondiale www.dailymotion.com/video/xuxrii?playlist=x34ije , Quelques mois après la fin de la Seconde Guerre mondiale, un triste constat s'impose : 5 944 passages sont coupés, soit plus de 110 km de brèches ; de nombreuses villes se trouvent isolées.Les chantiers s'activent dans toute la France pour "gagner la bataille des communications routières". Mais outre la pénurie de main d’œuvre, il faut faire face au manque de matériaux (béton, métal) et donc déployer des trésors d'imagination pour reconstruire les ponts détruits. Si le savoir faire des tailleurs de pierre est exploité, le plus spectaculaire est le relevage des ponts, comme le pont de Galliéni à Lyon, où 7 à 800 tonnes d'acier sont sorti de l'eau avec des moyens de l'époque. En avril 1945, il reste 5 700 ponts à reconstruire soit 200 000 tonnes d'acier, 600 000 tonnes de ciment, 250 000 m3 de bois, 10 millions de journées d'ouvrier, prix de l'effort de reconstruction.1945

www.dailymotion.com/video/xw6lak?playlist=x34ije - Rue neuve 1956 la reconstruction de la France dix ans après la fin de la seconde guerre mondiale, villes, villages, grands ensembles réalisation : Jack Pinoteau , Panorama de la reconstruction de la France dix ans après la fin de la seconde guerre mondiale, ce film de commande évoque les villes et villages français détruits puis reconstruits dans un style respectant la tradition : Saint-Malo, Gien, Thionville, Ammerschwihr, etc. ainsi que la reconstruction en rupture avec l'architecture traditionnelle à Châtenay-Malabry, Arles, Saint Étienne, Évreux, Chambéry, Villeneuve-Saint-Georges, Abbeville, Le Havre, Marseille, Boulogne-sur-Mer, Dunkerque. Le documentaire explique par exemple la manière dont a été réalisée la reconstruction de Saint-Malo à l'intérieur des rempart de la vieille ville : "c'est la fidélité à l'histoire et la force du souvenir qui a guidé l'architecte". Dans le même esprit à Gien, au trois quart détruite en 1940, seul le château construit en 1494 pour Anne de Beaujeu, fille aînée de Louis XI, fut épargné par les bombardements. La ville fut reconstruite dans le style des rares immeubles restant. Gien est relevé de ses ruines et le nouvel ensemble harmonieux est appelé « Joyau de la Reconstruction française ». Dans un deuxième temps est abordé le chapitre de la construction des cités et des grands ensembles, de l’architecture du renouveau qualifiée de "grandiose incontestablement". S’il est précisé "on peut aimer ou de ne pas aimer ce style", l’emporte au final l’argument suivant : les grands ensembles, c'est la campagne à la ville, un urbanisme plus aéré, plus vert." les films caravelles 1956, Réalisateur : Jack Pinoteau (connu pour être le metteur en scène du film Le Triporteur 1957 qui fit découvrir Darry Cowl) www.dailymotion.com/video/xuz3o8?playlist=x34ije , Film d'archive actualités de 1952 Reconstruction de la France sept ans après la fin de la seconde guerre mondiale état des lieux de la crise du logement , Actualités de 1952.

Why build an automotive museum? Because one way or another, our lives are touched by the automobile. We remember our parents’ cars, the ones we traveled in with family, the ones we borrowed for our first car date, the first ones we bought. The fast cars, the junkers, the modified ones and the ones we rebuilt—all of them are tied to us in memory. We even dream of cars.
William E. Backer, former owner of Backer Potato Chip Company in Fulton, Missouri, looked back in time and found that a vintage automobile was a thing of fascination. His memories were of old country roads and two lane highways. Bill Backer was an engineer and a builder who loved to tinker. Having built a successful potato chip company, he looked back at the cars that were part of his childhood. Shortly after, he owned a Canadian 1924 Dodge Touring. Dark blue with black fenders and a cloth top. Bill drove his family around the back country roads of Callaway County, Missouri and felt himself touching fading memories.
Not long after he collected the Dodge, Bill had a 1909 Ford Model T. Soon after that, a 1930 Model A. Then a 1929 Cord, a 1931 Rolls Royce Phantom II, a 1957 Chevy Bel Air, and so on. By the mid 1990’s, the number of classic autos in the collection neared 100. Bill found a home for many of his classic cars in an old retail building in Fulton. The Auto World Museum Foundation was formed and a classic car museum was opened to the public. Ten years later, in 2006, the automobile museum was moved to its current home at 200 Peacock Drive in Fulton. It is a building dedicated to the history of vintage and modern automobiles as well as the history of Callaway County and Fulton, Missouri.
After his passing in 2008, his daughter, Vicki McDaniel, assumed leadership of the museum and the collection of cars. Since then, the collection of vintage autos has changed a little. However, her primary passion is for the presentation of antique cars and modern ones in a place that everyone can visit.
The presentation of cars and staging of the museum is the vision of Tom K. Jones, Artistic Director of TKJ Designs in Fulton, Missouri. His concept for the museum was a movement through time and a portrayal of the history of Callaway County, Missouri. Auto World Museum is a stage—a movement through history. Its deep black curtains, scenes from back when, panels of advertising and memorabilia will take you through a history of motion in time. At first, you will visit a period not that long ago, although some say 100 years is a long time. As you move in a clockwise direction through the museum, you will find enticing displays. The simplicity of family drives in the convertible. The decadence of Hollywood and its fancy cars. The sights and sounds of the drive-in as you watched from the comfort of your Studebaker or Corvair. You will ponder when gas prices were really, really low. Finally, you will find yourself nearing the future, with displays of alternative fuel vehicles.
Auto World Museum will spark your curiosity. We hope that you will find that our collection of vintage and modern automobiles fascinates you the way that it did Bill Backer. We hope you will continue the journey with us as we add to the collection over time. We would like to thank William Harrison for his dedication to the research on the autos in the museum.

Juan A. Gaitán appointed curator of the 8th Berlin Biennale for Contemporary Art
KW Institute for Contemporary Art in Berlin is delighted to announce the appointment of Juan A. Gaitán as curator of the 8th Berlin Biennale for Contemporary Art. The 8th Berlin Biennale will take place in spring 2014.
Juan A. Gaitán (Canada/Colombia) is an independent writer and curator, currently based in Mexico City and Berlin. He is trained as an artist and art historian at University of British Columbia and Emily Carr Institute of Art and Design in Vancouver (Canada). Between January 2009 and December 2011, he was curator at Witte de With Center for Contemporary Art in Rotterdam (The Netherlands), and between September 2011 and June 2012 adjunct professor in the Curatorial Practice Program at the California College of the Arts in San Francisco (USA). During the 2006 – 2008 period, he was on the Board of Directors of the Western Front Society, and worked as external curator at the Morris and Helen Belkin Art Gallery in Vancouver. His writings have been published in several journals, including Afterall, The Exhibitionist, Fillip, and Mousse. His most recent exhibition, Material Information, spans three venues in Bergen (Norway), and looks for a renewed critical approach to the contemporary global distribution of labor from the perspective of arts and crafts. He is presently member of the acquisitions committee at FRAC Nord-Pas de Calais in Dunquerke (France).
The Berlin Biennale for Contemporary Art is since its fourth edition one of the institutions supported by the German Federal Cultural Foundation as „outstanding cultural event“. The support of 2.5 Million Euros per edition ensures planning stability, enabling the organizers to address issues of content in an experimental way.
Since the first edition in 1998, the Berlin Biennale has become a major international event for contemporary art. Located in the midst of Berlin’s vibrant cultural scene in the fast-changing capital of Germany, the Berlin Biennale has received an enthusiastic response from the audience as an experimental, forward-looking and contextual show. The previous seven editions of the Berlin Biennale explored a variety of exhibition formats and involved diverse curatorial agendas.
Curators have been:
1st Berlin Biennale (1998): Klaus Biesenbach with Nancy Spector, and Hans Ulrich Obrist
2nd Berlin Biennale (2001): Saskia Bos
3rd Berlin Biennale (2004): Ute Meta Bauer
4th Berlin Biennale (2006): Maurizio Cattelan, Massimiliano Gioni, and Ali Subotnick
5th Berlin Biennale (2008): Adam Szymczyk and Elena Filipovic
6th Berlin Biennale (2010): Kathrin Rhomberg
7th Berlin Biennale (2012): Artur Żmijewski together with associate curators Voina and Joanna Warsza
The selection committee for the curatorship of the 8th Berlin Biennale consisted of Sergio Edelsztein (Director and Chief Curator, The Centre for Contemporary Art, Tel Aviv); Cao Fei (Artist, Bejing), Susanne Gaensheimer (Director, MMK Museum für Moderne Kunst, Frankfurt a. M.), Koyo Kouoh (Founding Director and Artistic Director, Raw Material Company - Center for Art, Knowledge and Society, Dakar), Matthias Mühling (Head of Department, Curator, Städtische Galerie im Lenbachhaus, Munich), Bisi Silva (Director and Founder, Centre for Contemporary Art, Lagos), and Patricia Sloane (Associate Curator, MUAC Museo Universitario Arte Contemporáneo and advisor to the Head of Visual Arts, UNAM Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México, Mexico City).
The Berlin Biennale is realized by KW Institute for Contemporary Art and funded by the German Federal Cultural Foundation.

No, the Unvaccinated Aren’t All Just Being Difficult
By Bryce Covert
Ms. Covert is an independent journalist who focuses on the economy, with an emphasis on policies that affect workers and families.
On a July day in downtown Lowell, Mass., the first sunny Saturday of the month, people began to line up for a block party. Food trucks offered everyone a free empanada or egg roll. A D.J. played music. There were kid-friendly activities, too, like a touch-a-truck station with a fire truck and an ambulance.
The party wasn’t just a way to have a good time. The real motivation was to get people in the community vaccinated against Covid-19. Nestled between the food trucks were ones offering Pfizer, Moderna and Johnson & Johnson vaccines.
In the minds of the public health and community organizers who staged it, it was a roaring success. Sixty-four people got vaccinated within six hours. Hannah Tello, a community health data manager at the nonprofit Greater Lowell Health Alliance, noted that it was eight to 10 times as many vaccinations as what their mobile clinics had been doing; their most successful day before this administered 12.
The people who got shots at the party “were not people who were resistant,” Dr. Tello told me. Outreach workers went to a nearby park and invited the homeless people there to get free food and, if they wanted, a vaccination, and many took them up on the offer in such a low-stakes, nonmedical setting.
An elderly woman who cares for two people with disabilities had tried and failed to schedule vaccinations for all three of them at the same time. This time, she succeeded. A woman who was able to vaccinate all the other eligible people in her family hadn’t been able to get it herself because she has four young children she wasn’t allowed to take to the vaccination center. That day her children played cornhole while she got the shot.
The party organizers also reached about 250 other attendees, many of whom had conversations about their concerns. Some were worried that the vaccines cost money, even though they’re free to all. They were concerned they would need some sort of documentation, which they don’t. One woman hadn’t gotten the shot yet because she has an intense fear of needles; she did it that day after 25 minutes of talking it through. “Her getting her shot is just as important as the people who lined up outside our clinics a few months ago,” Dr. Tello said. “No one is less deserving of having access.”
The country’s vaccination campaign has lagged since April, and that has allowed for a spike in cases, particularly in largely unvaccinated areas. Vaccinations have risen lately in response to the spread of the Delta variant, but rather than keeping its foot on the gas and throwing every idea, every resource at the problem, the White House has started to shift the blame onto those who still haven’t gotten a shot. President Biden grumbled that he has struck a “brick wall” in persuading more Americans to get the shot. Last week, taking aim at those he called “unvaccinated, unbothered and unconvinced,” he said, “If you’re out there unvaccinated, you don’t have to die. Read the news.”
There are plenty of Americans who have been inundated with misinformation about the vaccines. Many are staunchly opposed to getting it for a variety of reasons, from personal health concerns to conspiracy theories. But that doesn’t describe everyone who is unvaccinated — not by a long shot. And there are plenty of things we can do to reach them if we’re serious about spending the time and the money.
Instead, the current approach is to argue that access has increased and it’s everyone’s individual responsibility to get a shot — and if you don’t, it’s on you. Once again, we have taken the cruelly American, ruggedly individualistic tactic of making this about personal responsibility, not about a systemic response, just as we did in combating the virus itself.
“It’s not a public health strategy for any condition to just blame somebody into treatment and prevention,” said Rhea Boyd, a pediatrician and public health advocate. Telling the unvaccinated that they’re being selfish “really runs counter to all the work it’s going to take to convince those folks to be vaccinated, to trust us that we have their best interests in mind.”
It’s also shortsighted. If some people continue to struggle with getting vaccinated, the virus will continue to run rampant, threatening a rebound in economic activity and giving the coronavirus a chance to mutate yet again. The refrain we’ve heard throughout is still true: We’re not safe until we’re all safe.
Those who aren’t yet vaccinated are much more likely to be food insecure, have children at home and earn little. About three-quarters of unvaccinated adults live in a household that makes less than $75,000 a year. They are nearly three times as likely as the vaccinated to have had insufficient food recently. Many of them have pressing concerns they can’t just put aside because they need to get a vaccination.
Access is far more widespread than it was at the beginning of the year. Many cities now offer multiple venues for getting it without needing an appointment. But about 10 percent of the eligible population still lives more than a 15-minute drive from a vaccine distribution location. And even if there’s a site down the road, it usually requires taking time off work — not just to get the shot but also potentially to recover from the side effects — arranging transportation and figuring out child care.
“Missing out on a few hours of work seems very easy to us, but in fact it could be the matter of having food for the family versus not,” said Ann Lee, the chief executive of the nonprofit Community Organized Relief Effort. For these people, when they’re weighing whether to get a vaccination or potentially forgo some wages, “the wages are going to win out.”
Those who are unvaccinated are also likely to work in essential jobs like agriculture and manufacturing that don’t allow them to step away from work. They work long hours and may prioritize time with their families or communities when they finally get a break. People who have multiple jobs may find it impossible to schedule a shot in between all of their shifts.
And yet 43 percent of the unvaccinated say they definitely or probably would get it or are unsure, according to Julia Raifman, an assistant professor at the Boston University School of Public Health.
“We pretty quickly exhausted those who were easiest to reach and vaccinate,” Tara Smith, a public health professor at Kent State, told me. “This next phase is more difficult, but I don’t think it’s impossible to continue to get more people vaccinated. We just have to get creative.”
A block party doesn’t work in every community, particularly more rural ones. For those places, an event could be staged at a church or a county fair. Anything that allows people to discuss their concerns with experts and get vaccinated on the spot erases dangerous lag time. Dr. Tello’s organization found that many disappeared in the time between an educational conversation and a vaccination appointment weeks later.
Another way to take the vaccines to people for whom the logistics are complicated is to do it at workplaces. Ms. Lee’s organization held a vaccination drive at a construction site in Washington, D.C., and vaccinated 165 people. “They wanted to get vaccinated. There was just no way some of these day laborers were going to take off of work and maybe get sick,” Ms. Lee said. In January, Riverside, Calif., began a program to take vaccines into the fields to reach agricultural workers.
There are plenty of other smart places to distribute vaccines. Take them to food pantries, where low-income and food-insecure people show up by necessity on a regular basis. Do vaccinations at shopping centers where everyone goes to buy food. Vaccine drives could also be held on the first day of school for parents and older children alike; it’s late in the game, since it takes weeks for full immunity, but it’s better than missing them entirely.
Going door to door can also reach people, particularly those who are homebound. The Central Falls Housing Authority in Rhode Island offered shots to its public housing residents at the end of last year, and by January, 80 percent had been vaccinated. In Los Angeles, Ms. Lee’s team contacts the homebound first to talk through any concerns and again a week later to administer a vaccine. Vaccines could even be paired with Meals on Wheels deliveries.
To address transportation issues, the White House collaborated with Uber and Lyft to give free rides up to $25 to and from vaccination sites. But those companies don’t operate in every community, particularly outside cities. The government could also give grants to community organizations that can give people free rides to vaccination sites. “If you have a bus at a church, you can get a grant,” Dr. Boyd suggested.
We have to mandate paid leave so workers can take at least two days to get a shot and recover without jeopardizing their incomes. The Biden administration has offered tax credits to employers with fewer than 500 employees to cover the cost of offering paid leave for getting vaccinated, which he expanded this month. Some states, including New York, have mandated it. But everywhere else, it’s up to an employer to offer it, and if existing paid leave benefits are any guide, it’s the lowest-wage workers who are least likely to get it. The Occupational Safety and Health Administration released an emergency temporary standard in June that requires employers to provide paid time off to get vaccinated and recover, but it applies only to health care workers, despite the fact that a draft version included everyone.
Short of that, community organizations can send people home from getting vaccinated with enough food for their families if they have to miss work for a day or two. When Ms. Lee’s organization did testing in the Navajo Nation, it gave people two weeks of food in case they got a positive result and had to quarantine. It’s now sending people home with food as well as diapers, formula and hygiene kits with things like shampoo and tampons.
Parents also need child care — not just for getting their shots but also if they experience side effects. The government is working with four large child care providers to offer free care, but those centers may not be available to everyone, nor will all parents feel comfortable sending their children to an unfamiliar setting. Instead, we could give them money to pay their trusted source of child care and also offer care at vaccination centers.
State and local officials can kick-start some of this on their own. But the real money, and the power to set the agenda, comes from the White House and Congress. “If the federal government said, ‘We are really concerned, we see that low-income people have not had access to the vaccine, and we’re putting forth a huge effort to bring it to them in their workplaces and homes,’” Dr. Raifman said, “that would be a compelling message that would mobilize people across the country.” Federal funding needs to be filtered down to the local level as quickly as possible. There’s a lot of money for vaccinations, but it has to get to the organizations that are deeply embedded in their communities and ready to pull this off.
Dr. Tello’s organization plans to repeat the block party this summer, this time as a back-to-school event, handing out free backpacks and school supplies as well as flu shots alongside the Covid vaccines. And it will be timed so that those who got their first shot of the Moderna or Pfizer vaccine at July’s party can get their second dose on the spot. “Sometimes,” she said, “you have to make it too convenient so that people can’t say no.”
Fountain Paint Pot trail, Yellowstone National Park, Wyoming, USA

[ www.google.co.in/imgres?imgurl=https://4.bp.blogspot.com/... and Spasm Geysers, Fountain Paint Pot trail, Yellowstone National Park images&ved=0ahUKEwjkgubQv8XeAhUC3Y8KHaFRCQ8QMwhNKBowGg&iact=mrc&uact=8 ]
This part of Lower Geyser Basin seen from a half-mile trail has all four of the hydrothermal features found in the park:
Clepsydra Geyser is a geyser in the Lower Geyser Basin of Yellowstone National Park. Clepsydra plays nearly continuously to heights of 45 feet. The name Clepsydra is derived from the Greek word for water clock. Prior to the 1959 Hebgen Lake earthquake, it erupted regularly every three minutes.
Yellowstone National Park has several hydrothermal areas, so what makes the Fountain Paint Pot Area worth visiting? For starters, this part of Lower Geyser Basin has all four of the hydrothermal features found in the park (mudpots, geysers, hot springs, and fumaroles) and you can see them all from a compact half-mile long boardwalk loop. While none of the many Fountain Paint Pot Area geysers are as famous as Old Faithful, they erupt so frequently that you are almost guaranteed a great show on your short hike. Since the walkway passes all four of Yellowstone’s hydrothermal formations, the hike comes with a guaranteed lesson in hydrothermal volcanism.
Hiking the loop in a clockwise direction, you will first pass through a forest of lodgepole pine snags that were drowned and left lifeless by the surrounding hot springs. As you approach the northwest end of the loop, you will spot a lively collection of geysers. Clepsydra Geyser, Fountain Geyser, Jelly Geyser, Jet Geyser, Morning Geyser, Spasm Geyser, and Twig Geyser erupt with various levels of regularity.
As you progress around the walkway toward the northeast corner, you will pass Red Spouter, which behaves like a fumarole, a hot spring, and a mudpot throughout the year. It is like a hot spring in the winter, a muddy reddish pool in the spring and a steaming fumarole in the drier summer and fall. Wrapping down the east side of the boardwalk, you will pass Leather Pool and a slope of fumaroles. These gaps in the surface whistle and hiss as gasses and steam escape from the ground. Just below the fumaroles, where a little more water is present, the trail circles Fountain Paint Pot. These mudpots bubble and pop as globs of mud springs from the surface like miniature trapeze artists.
Continuing downhill, the hydrothermal features become even wetter as you arrive at Silex Spring. Look down into the small blue pool rimmed with white silica. Water spills over the sides of the spring creating an orange-colored surface covered in rippling runoff. These colors are created by thermophiles, heat-loving microorganisms that live in Yellowstone’s hot springs.

Geothermal features of Yellowstone NP- A brief note:
There are four geothermal features found in the park – Hot springs, Geysers, Fumaroles , and Mud volcanoes/pots.
What is a Hot spring?
Hot spring, also called thermal spring, spring with water at temperatures substantially higher than the air temperature of the surrounding region. Most hot springs discharge groundwater that is heated by shallow intrusions of magma (molten rock) in volcanic areas.
Some thermal springs, however, are not related to volcanic activity. In general, the temperature of rocks within the earth increases with depth. The rate of temperature increase with depth is known as the geothermal gradient. In such cases, the water is heated by convective circulation: groundwater percolating downward reaches depths of a kilometre or more where the temperature of rocks is high because of the normal temperature gradient of the Earth’s crust—about 30 °C / kilometer in the first 10 km. The water from hot springs in non-volcanic areas is heated in this manner.
But in active volcanic zones such as Yellowstone National Park, water may be heated by coming into contact with magma (molten rock). The high temperature gradient near magma may cause water to be heated enough that it boils or becomes superheated. If the water becomes so hot that it builds steam pressure and erupts in a jet above the surface of the Earth, it is called a geyser.
[ Warm springs are sometimes the result of hot and cold springs mixing. They may occur within a volcanic area or outside of one. One example of a non-volcanic warm spring is Warm Springs, Georgia (frequented for its therapeutic effects by paraplegic U.S. President Franklin D. Roosevelt, who built the Little White House there) ].
List of hot springs:
[ en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_hot_springs ]
The science of colors of a hot spring:
[ ttps://www.britannica.com/science/hot-spring]
Many of the colours in hot springs are caused by thermophilic (heat-loving) microorganisms, which include certain types of bacteria, such as cyanobacteria, and species of archaea and algae. Many thermophilic organisms grow in huge colonies called mats that form the colourful scums and slimes on the sides of hot springs. The microorganisms that grow in hot springs derive their energy from various chemicals and metals; potential energy sources include molecular hydrogen, dissolved sulfides, methane, iron, ammonia, and arsenic. In addition to geochemistry, the temperature and pH of hot springs play a central role in determining which organisms inhabit them.
Examples of thermophilic microorganisms found in hot springs include bacteria in the genera Sulfolobus, which can grow at temperatures of up to 90 °C (194 °F), Hydrogenobacter, which grow optimally at temperatures of 85 °C (185 °F), and Thermocrinis, which grow optimally at temperatures of 80 °C (176 °F). Thermophilic algae in hot springs are most abundant at temperatures of 55 °C (131 °F) or below.
What is a Geyser?
A geyser is formed when water collecting below the surface is heated by a magma source. When the water boils, it rises to the surface. If the water has an unobstructed path, it will pool on the surface in the form of a steaming hot springs. If the passage of the water is imposed upon, the pressure will increase. When the pressure becomes too great, the water converts into to steam. Steam takes up 1,500 times the volume of water, and at this point, the pressure becomes so intense that the steam and surrounding water droplets shoot out of the ground in geyser form, erupting until the pressure has abated and the process starts all over again.
What is a fumarole?
It’s a vent in the Earth’s surface from which steam and volcanic gases are emitted. The major source of the water vapour emitted by fumaroles is groundwater heated by bodies of magma lying relatively close to the surface. Carbon dioxide, sulfur dioxide, and hydrogen sulfide are usually emitted directly from the magma. Fumaroles are often present on active volcanoes during periods of relative quiet between eruptions.
Fumaroles are closely related to hot springs and geysers. In areas where the water table rises near the surface, fumaroles can become hot springs. A fumarole rich in sulfur gases is called a solfatara; a fumarole rich in carbon dioxide is called a mofette. If the hot water of a spring only reaches the surface in the form of steam, it is called a fumarole. [ www.britannica.com/science/fumarole ]
What is a mud volcano/ mud pot/ paint pot?
Usually mud volcanoes are created by hot-spring activity where large amounts of gas and small amounts of water react chemically with the surrounding rocks and form a boiling mud.
Geo-chemistry of mud volcano: Hydrogen sulfide gas rising from magma chamber, as in Yellowstone’s, causes the rotten-egg smell. Microorganisms, or thermophiles, use this gas as a source of energy, and then help turn the gas into sulfuric acid. The acid then breaks down the rocks and soil into mud. Many of the colors seen are vast communities of thermophiles, but some of the yellow is pure sulfur. When iron mixes with sulfur to form iron sulfide, gray and black swirls sometimes appear in the mud (From description of the display board in the park).
If the water of a hot spring is mixed with mud and clay, it is called a mud pot. Variations are the porridge pot (a basin of boiling mud that erodes chunks of the surrounding rock) and the paint pot (a basin of boiling mud that is tinted yellow, green, or blue by minerals from the surrounding rocks).
There are other mud volcanoes, entirely of a nonigneous origin, occur only in oil-field regions that are relatively young and have soft, unconsolidated formations.

A quick overview of YNP
Yellowstone National Park is an American national park located in Wyoming, Montana, and Idaho. Approximately 96 percent of the land area of Yellowstone National Park is located within the state of Wyoming. The Park spans an area of 8,983 km2 comprising lakes, canyons, rivers and mountain ranges. The park is known for its wildlife and its many geothermal features. It has many types of ecosystems, but the subalpine forest is the most abundant. It is part of the South Central Rockies forests eco-region.
It was established by the U.S. Congress and signed into law by President Ulysses S. Grant on March 1, 1872. Yellowstone was the first national park in the U.S. and is also widely held to be the first national park in the world. Native Americans have lived in the Yellowstone region for at least 11,000 years. Aside from visits by mountain -men during the early to mid-19th century, organized exploration did not begin until the late 1860s.
The park contains the headwaters of the Yellowstone River, from which it takes its historical name. Although it is commonly believed that the river was named for the yellow rocks seen in the ‘Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone’, the Native American name source is unclear.
Yellowstone Lake is one of the largest high-elevation lakes in North America and is centered over the Yellowstone Caldera, the largest supervolcano on the continent. The caldera is considered as an active volcano. It has erupted with tremendous force several times in the last two million year. The Yellowstone Caldera is the largest volcanic system in North America. It has been termed a "supervolcano" because the caldera was formed by exceptionally large explosive eruptions. The magma chamber that lies under Yellowstone is estimated to be a single connected chamber, about 60 km long, 29 km wide, and 5 to 12 km deep. Yellowstone Lake is up to 400 feet deep and has 180 km of shoreline.The lake is at an elevation of 7,733 feet above sea levels. Half of the world's geysers and hydrothermal features are there in Yellowstone, fueled by this ongoing volcanism. Lava and rocks from volcanic eruptions cover most of the land area of Yellowstone. The park is the centerpiece of the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem, the largest remaining nearly-intact ecosystem in the Earth's northern temperate zone. In 1978, Yellowstone was named a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
In May 2001, the U.S. Geological Survey, Yellowstone National Park, and the University of Utah created the Yellowstone Volcano Observatory (YVO), a partnership for long-term monitoring of the geological processes of the Yellowstone Plateau volcanic field, for disseminating information concerning the potential hazards of this geologically active region.
Hundreds of species of mammals, birds, fish, and reptiles have been documented, including several that are either endangered or threatened. The vast forests and grasslands also include unique species of plants. Yellowstone Park is the largest and most famous mega fauna location in the contiguous United States. Grizzly bears, wolves, and free-ranging herds of bison and elk live in this park. The Yellowstone Park bison herd is the oldest and largest public bison herd in the United States.
Forest fires occur in the park each year. In the largest forest fires of 1988, nearly one third of the park was burnt.
Yellowstone has numerous recreational opportunities, including hiking, camping, boating, fishing and sightseeing. Paved roads provide close access to the major geothermal areas as well as some of the lakes and waterfalls. During the winter, visitors often access the park by way of guided tours that use either snow coaches or snowmobiles.
Fire in Yellowstone NP:
Causes of wildfire in Yellowstone NP
Wildfire has had a role in the dynamics of Yellowstone’s ecosystems for thousands of years. Although many fires were caused by human activities, most ignitions were natural. The term "natural ignition" usually refers to a lightning strike. Afternoon thunderstorms occur frequently in the northern Rocky Mountains but release little precipitation, a condition known as ‘dry lightning’. In a typical season there are thousands of lightning strikes in Yellowstone. Lightning strikes are powerful enough to rip strips of bark off of a tree in a shower of sparks and blow the pieces up to 100 feet away. However, most lightning strikes do not result in a wildfire because fuels are not in a combustible state.
The great fire incidence of 1988
The Yellowstone fires of 1988 collectively formed the largest wildfire in the recorded history of Yellowstone National Park in the United States. Starting as many smaller individual fires, the flames quickly spread out of control due to drought conditions and increasing winds, combining into one large conflagration which burned for several months. The fires almost destroyed two major visitor destinations and, on September 8, 1988, the entire park closed to all non-emergency personnel for the first time in its history. Only the arrival of cool and moist weather in the late autumn brought the fires to an end. A total of 793,880 acres, or 36 percent of the park was affected by the wildfires.
Fire incidence, 2016
As of September 21, 2016, 22 fires (human and lightning-caused) have burned more than 62,000 acres in Yellowstone National Park, making it the highest number of acres burned since the historic 1988 fire.
Heritage and Research Center
The Heritage and Research Center is located at Gardiner, Montana, near the north entrance to the park. The center is home to the Yellowstone National Park's museum collection, archives, research library, historian, archeology lab, and herbarium. The Yellowstone National Park Archives maintain collections of historical records of Yellowstone and the National Park Service. The collection includes the administrative records of Yellowstone, as well as resource management records, records from major projects, and donated manuscripts and personal papers. The archives are affiliated with the National Archives and Records Administration.
Tourist attractions in Warangal city & surrounds and Warangal History
The design of the gateways is redolent like the ‘thoranas’ of the Great Stupa at Sanchi. The architecture and sculpture of these temples are magnificent as no one can fail to see the rich imagination, patient industry and skilful workmanship of the builders of the temples of the Kakatiya period.
History of Kakatiya Dynasty
The 12th and the 13th centuries saw the emergence of the Kakatiyas. They were at first the feudatories of the Western Chalukyas of Kalyana, ruling over a small territory near Warangal. A ruler of this dynasty, Prola II, who ruled from 1110 AD to 1158 AD, extended his sway to the south and declared his independence. His successor Rudra (1158 - 1195 AD) pushed the kingdom to the north up to the Godavari delta. He built a fort at Warangal to serve as a second capital and faced the invasions of the Yadavas of Devagiri. The next ruler Mahadeva extended the kingdom to the coastal area. In 1199 AD, Ganapati succeeded him. He was the greatest of the Kakatiyas and the first after the Satavahanas to bring the entire Telugu area under one rule. He put an end to the rule of the Velanati Cholas in 1210 AD. He forced the Telugu Cholas of Vikramasimhapura to accept his suzerainty. He established order in his vast dominion and encouraged trade.
As Ganapati Deva had no sons, his daughter Rudramba succeeded him in 1262 AD and carried on the administration. Some generals, who did not like to be ruled by her, rebelled. She could, however, suppress the internal rebellions and external invasions with the help of loyal subordinates. The Cholas and the Yadavas suffered such set backs at her hands that they did not think of troubling her for the rest of her rule.
Prataparudra succeeded his grandmother Rudramba in 1295 AD and ruled till 1323 AD. He pushed the western border of his kingdom up to Raichur. He introduced many administrative reforms. He divided the kingdom into 75 Nayakships, which was later adopted and developed by the Rayas of Vijayanagara. In his time the territory constituting Andhra Pradesh had the first experience of a Muslim invasion. In 1303 AD, the Delhi Sultan Ala-ud-din Khilji sent an army to plunder the kingdom, but Prataparudra defeated them at Upparapalli in Karimnagar district. In 1310 AD, when another army under Malik Kafur invaded Warangal, Prataparudra yielded and agreed to pay a large tribute. In 1318 AD when Ala-ud-din Khilji died, Prataparudra withheld the tribute. It provoked another invasion of the Muslims. In 1321 AD Ghiaz-ud-din Tughlaq sent a large army under Ulugh Khan to conquer the Telugu country then called Tilling. He laid siege to Warangal, but owing to internal dissensions he called off the siege and returned to Delhi. Within a short period, he came back with a much bigger army. In spite of unpreparedness, Prataparudra fought bravely. For want of supplies, he surrendered to the enemy who sent him to Delhi as a prisoner, and he died on the way. Thus ended the Kakatiya rule, opening the gates of the Telugu land to anarchy and confusion yielding place to an alien ruler.

Para la preparación de la prueba de Selectividad de Andalucía del curso 2015-2016 se ofrece aquí una selección de doce ejercicios prácticos (un mapa de localización, ocho mapas temáticos, un perfil topográfico, un fotoplano y una comparativa de pirámides de población) que, a nuestro juicio, cuentan con grandes posibilidades de ser escogidos para las propuestas del curso 2015-2016. Para facilitar la edición (y su consulta) la hemos fraccionado en dos partes: Geografía Física por una parte y Geografía Humana y Económica por otra.
Conviene indicar que las informaciones ofrecidas por este medio tienen exclusivamente carácter ilustrativo, y no originarán derechos ni expectativas de derechos. En palabras de Michael Crichton «No podemos evaluar el futuro, ni podemos predecirlo. Estos son eufemismos. Solo podemos hacer suposiciones. Una suposición bien fundada sigue siendo solo una suposición.»
Nuestras suposiciones se basan en lo siguiente:
-Prácticas que han aparecido en numerosas ocasiones.
-Prácticas que se han repetido en los dos últimos juegos de pruebas.
-Prácticas que llevan muchos cursos sin ser seleccionadas.
Evidentemente, el número de criterios podría prolongarse hasta el infinito y parecer (o ser) cada vez más absurdos. El mejor ejemplo es «ejercicios que nadie pensaría que iban a volverlos a escoger». Pero este es más bien un anticriterio. Volvemos a insistir en lo aleatorio y personal de nuestras previsiones, pero arriesgarse a predecir es mejor que insistir en prepararse todo el repertorio de mapas y demás ejercicios.
Un indicio que nos parece digno de confianza es el análisis de los ejercicios aparecidos en el juego de exámenes de 2014-2015. Así, no se registran novedades, recurriendo bien a propuestas de los años inmediatamente anteriores, bien a esos ejercicios «veteranos» que aparecen en las convocatorias de toda la vida. De hecho, cuando en estos casos existen varias versiones, se ha optado siempre por la que cuenta con más apariciones. La voluntad de ayudar al alumnado parece, pues, evidente.
Lamentablemente, en el juego de propuestas 2013 – 2014 el número de prácticas sin precedentes o remozadas de arriba a abajo asciende a nada menos que siete. Y es que la selectividad andaluza es, en líneas generales y a largo plazo, conservadora y predecible, pero entre un año y otro puede variar de criterio por completo. Dicho sea de paso, tampoco es que la Ponencia sea un modelo de coherencia.
Si se registraran novedades (Dios no lo quiera), una página que se ha transformado en la cantera de la selectividad andaluza es la sección didáctica del Instituto Geográfico Nacional denominada «España a través de los mapas».
Este es el enlace de la página en cuestión:
Evidentemente, lo último que habría que realizar a estas alturas es analizar la cartografía publicada en esta web. Por lo demás, allí aparecen los mapas, pero no las preguntas que se realizan sobre ello.
Lo razonable (y lo previsible) sería esperar que en este curso no aparecieran novedades, dado que el actual modelo de selectividad concluye este año, Que este estado de expectativa pase a ser una realidad es algo que está por ver.
Pasando ya a nuestras previsiones, señalar que al final nos hemos decidido por doce pruebas. No se trata de un ranquin (pues no llegamos a discernir cuál de ellas cuenta con más posibilidades de ser elegidas); tampoco se trata de una selección por temas (bien que más o menos la selección se ajusta a un panorama sobre la asignatura). Tampoco hemos tratado de ofrecer una selección representativa de los distintos tipos de las figuraciones cartográficas y estadísticas que caracterizan al repertorio de la selectividad andaluza (aunque ha acabado pareciéndose mucho a esto último). En fin, que nada más lejos de nuestra intención que reconstruir el juego de doce pruebas (y doce ejercicios prácticos) del presente curso. Se trata simplemente de doce prácticas que cuentan con bastantes posibilidades de ser elegidas. Su ordenación sigue el esquema tradicional de la sucesión de contenidos de la asignatura, y no refleja ni sus posibilidades ni su importancia.
Hemos incluido algunos ejercicios que fueron elegidos en los exámenes titulares de junio y septiembre del curso 2013-2014. En principio esta circunstancia debía vetarlos para el curso siguiente. Pero en junio de 2013 se escogió el mismo mapa de las pruebas de junio del año anterior. La veda de los cálculos más desaforados había caído para siempre.
Un último apunte. La elección de los exámenes de junio y de septiembre se realiza recurriendo al azar (o eso nos cuentan). Por tanto igual acertamos ocho de las doce pruebas, pero fallamos en las cuatro que acaban como exámenes titulares. Y esto es válido para toda estadística o visión del futuro: al basarse en cálculos realizados tanto en las propuestas que acabaron como exámenes, como las que quedaron desechadas, se corre el riego de acertar lo que precisamente va a quedarse en el tintero.
________________________________________________
Mapa de altitudes sobre el nivel del mar de España
Los mapas orográficos con números son una de las especialidades de la selectividad de Andalucía. También lo es el recurrir a las pruebas de reserva del curso anterior. Así, este ejercicio figuró en el juego de exámenes del curso 2013-2014. En el 2015 fue escogido como examen de septiembre, hecho que, en principio, limita (pero no excluye) sus posibilidades de ser escogido en el presente curso.
El mapa procede de la sección didáctica del Instituto Geográfico Nacional denominada «España a través de los mapas».
Las preguntas que se realizan sobre él son las siguientes:
-Localice en el mapa las unidades de relieve señaladas numéricamente del 1 al 5.
1.-Cordillera Cantábrica, 2.-Submeseta Norte / Cuenca del Duero, 3.- Sistema Ibérico, 4.- Depresión del Ebro, 5.- Isla de Tenerife.
-Identifique y describa las características de los relieves señalados con las letras A y B.
A-Sierra Morena caracterizado por el relieve herciniano y B-Cordillera Penibética formada, en lo fundamental, por materiales paleozoicos (de la orogenia herciniana igualmente) levantados de nuevo en la orogenia alpina.
-Desarrolle las principales características de las unidades exteriores a la Meseta.
Las unidades exteriores son depresiones (Ebro, Guadalquivir y Tajo [esta última en territorio portugués] y cordilleras (Pirineos, Montes Vascos, Costero-Catalanas y Béticas). Unas y otras formaban parte de fondos marinos y fueron elevadas en la orogenia alpina. Las primeras acabaron por rellenarse con materiales como arcillas y calizas procedentes de la erosión de las segundas.
-Explique el origen de la formación de las principales zonas altitudinales que se observan en el mapa.
Las principales zonas altitudinales son los Pirineos, las Béticas y el Teide.
Las dos primeras presentan un roquedo paleozoico elevado de nuevo en la orogenia alpina y retocados por el glaciarismo en el cuaternario. Aquí se localizan las montañas más altas de la Península: El Mulhacén (3478 metros) en Sierra Nevada y el Aneto (3.404 metros) en el macizo de la Maladeta.
El Teide presenta rasgos totalmente distintos. Se trata de un estratovolcán que se eleva hasta los 3718 metros (aunque llegó a elevarse a cotas mayores en el pasado). Desde finales de la era terciaria se produce una sucesión de distintos edificios volcánicos, siendo el actual el quinto, con una antigüedad que se remonta al millón de años.
________________________________________________
Perfil topográfico de la Península Ibérica
El perfil topográfico lleva rodando por las pruebas de la selectividad andaluza desde 2003, siendo la séptima vez que fue escogido en el 2014. Dos de estas propuestas acabaron convertidas en exámenes titulares.
El esquema DACEB 3241 o más bien D3A2C4E1V se repite invariablemente en todas las manifestaciones de esta prueba.
La representación gráfica ha tenido que ser completamente rehecha dada la nula calidad de la reproducción en los exámenes.
Las preguntas que se realizan sobre él son las siguientes:
-Enuncie, ordenados de norte a sur, la letra y el nombre correspondiente de los sistemas de relieve que aparecen en el gráfico.
D: Cordillera Cantábrica.
A: Sistema Central.
C: Montes de Toledo.
E: Sierra Morena.
B: Cordilleras Béticas [Penibética].
-Enumere, ordenados de Norte-Sur, el número y nombre correspondiente, de los ríos que fluyen en los valles del gráfico.
3: Río Duero.
2: Río Tajo.
1: Río Guadiana.
4: Río Guadalquivir.
-Diga el nombre, y los números correspondientes, de los ríos que aparecen en el gráfico, ordenados de Sur a Norte.
4: Guadalquivir.
1: Guadiana
2: Tajo.
3: Duero.
-Describa las características del río que fluye en el valle señalado con el número 4.
Se trata del Guadalquivir, el quinto río más largo de la península ibérica con 657 km. Su cuenca se extiende ocupa la mayor parte de la comunidad de Andalucía, bien que se extiende por Extremadura, Castilla-La Mancha y Murcia. Se trata de un río con régimen pluvial-nival en su primer tramos (Sierra de Cazorla) y subtropical en el resto. Presenta un caudal considerable (164 m3/s en Sevilla). El principal afluente es el Genil, río que puede paragonarse con el Guadalquivir tanto por el caudal como por la extensión de la Cuenca.
El Guadalquivir desemboca en el océano Atlántico en un amplio estuario. Anteriormente lo realizaba en una amplia bahía, conocida por los geográfos antiguos como «Lago Ligustino» y que fue transformada progresivamente en un área de marismas por el continuo aporte de los sedimentos.
-De los sistemas de relieve, diga, con letra y nombre, cuáles de ellos son:
Interiores a la Meseta.
(A) Sistema Central y (C) Montes de Toledo.
Periféricos a la Meseta.
(D) Cordillera Cantábrica y (E) Sierra Morena.
Exteriores a la Meseta.
Cordilleras Béticas.
-¿Qué ríos de los que ha identificado desembocan en el Océano Atlántico?
Todos los ríos que aparecen en el corte (Duero, Tajo, Guadiana y Guadalquivir) tributan en el Océano Atlántico, a causa de la presencia del Sistema Ibérico que divide España en dos mitades asimétricas, y a causa también de la suave inclinación que presenta la Meseta hacia el Océano. La forma triangular de la Depresión del Guadalquivir con la base en las costas atlánticas y la parte de mayor altura en el vértice, explica que el Guadalquivir sea paralelo a los ríos mesetarios.
-Analice la estructura del relieve peninsular guiándose por perfil topográfico que se presenta.
El relieve español se estructura en la Meseta, zona de tierras de elevada altitud (entre 600 y 800 metros) divididas en dos sectores por el Sistema Central (A): la submeseta norte y la submeseta sur, esta última ligeramente accidentada por los Montes de Toledo (C). Estas cadenas montañosas se denominan «sierras interiores».
La Meseta está circundada por los rebordes montañosos. En el corte aparecen la Cordillera Cantábrica (D) al norte y Sierra Morena (E) al sur. Como se comprueba en el perfil, la Cordillera Cantábrica presenta mayor altura y un relieve más abrupto que Sierra Morena.
Más allá de los rebordes montañosos se sitúan los relieves exteriores a la Meseta. Se trata de depresiones y cordilleras. En el corte figuran la Depresión del Guadalquivir (4) y las Cordilleras Béticas (B). Como se advierte en el perfil, la primera es la zona con menor altitud de España mientras que en la segunda se sitúa la mayor altura de la Península: El Mulhacén (3478 metros) en Sierra Nevada

Unidades litológicas de la Península Ibérica
Desde 2005, este mapa ha aparecido en cinco ocasiones, siendo la última una de las propuesta de 2015. Fue escogido como examen de septiembre en 2009. Ni las cuestiones ni los números han variado a lo largo (y a lo ancho de sus apariciones).
La representación gráfica ha tenido que ser completamente rehecha dada la escasa calidad de la reproducción en los exámenes.
Las preguntas que se realizan sobre él son las siguientes:
-Enumere, por separado, con sus números y nombre: las unidades interiores de la Meseta; las periféricas de la Meseta; y las exteriores a la Meseta.
Unidades Interiores de la Meseta:
-9 (Cuenca de la Submeseta Norte).
-10 (Sistema Central).
-11 (Cuenca de la Submeseta Sur).
- 12 (Montes de Toledo).
Unidades Periféricas a la Meseta:
- 1 (Macizo Galaico).

- ¿Qué Comunidades Autónomas tienen parte o todo su territorio asentado sobre la Iberia silícea en el Oeste peninsular?
Galicia, Asturias, Castilla-León, Extremadura y Andalucía.
-¿Qué relación básica guarda cada una de estas tres Iberias con distintos usos y aprovechamientos del territorio?
En la Iberia Silícea los suelos tienen poca profundidad y resultan muy pobres para la agricultura. Predomina la actividad ganadera, destacando el paisaje de la dehesa.
En la Iberia Caliza se encuentran paisajes escarpados en el que se sitúan las principales cadenas montañosas de la Península, como los Pirineos. Los únicos aprovechamientos agrarios son la explotación forestal y alguna ganadería.
En la Iberia Arcillosa predomina un relieve básicamente horizontal, apto para los cereales, viñedo y otros cultivos extensivos. De hecho la mayor parte de la actividad agrícola hispana se concentra en estos suelos.

Distribución de las Precipitaciones en España
Desde 2002, este dinosaurio de la selectividad andaluza ha aparecido en siete ocasiones, siendo la las dos últimas las propuesta de 2014 y de 2015. Fue escogido como examen de septiembre en 20092, junio de 2011 y junio de 2015. Esta última selección limita (pero no excluye) sus posibilidades de que vuelva a ser escogido para el presente curso.
Las precipitaciones medias se miden en milímetros, oscilando entre los 200 y los 2000, y a partir de su distribución se trazan isoyetas (líneas que unen puntos con igual temperatura). Con puntos rojos se indican las áreas de máxima torrencialidad, lugares en los que han caído más de 400 milímetros en un solo día en el período comprendido entre el período 1956 – 1985.
En todas sus apariciones las preguntas que se realizan son siempre las mismas, salvo en el caso del juego de 2014.
Estas son las cuestiones:
-Compare las precipitaciones que se reciben en el Noroeste peninsular y las que se recogen en el Sureste de la península. Diga las diferencias que existen y explique las posibles causas.
En el Noroeste peninsular, en concreto en Galicia, Asturias y norte de la provincia de León las precipitaciones son muy altas, alcanzando los 800 milímetros como mínimo, y superando los 2000 milímetros en algunas cotas. Son cifras propias de la España Húmeda y del Clima Oceánico
En el Sureste peninsular (extremo oriental de Andalucía, Murcia, provincias de Albacete y Alicante). Las precipitaciones son inferiores a los 200 litros, y como máximo se acercan a los 400 milímetros. Se trata de valores típicos de la España Árida, y propios de un clima estepario o mediterráneo subdesértico.
La diferencia resulta, pues notoria, superando los 1000 milímetros. Mientras que la región noroeste presenta un superávit de agua que permite la existencia de una red de ríos caudalosos y una abundante vegetación natural, el extremo oriental se caracteriza por una red de torrentes y cárcavas secos gran parte del año y una vegetación escasa y discontinua de tipo arbustivo.
El Noroeste peninsular se encuentra todo el año bajo la acción de las borrascas atlánticas, mientras que la región sureste se encuentra totalmente aislada de las influencias atlánticas, pues se sitúa tras las cordilleras béticas. El Mediterráneo, en cambio, es un mar cerrado y cálido, que aporta escasas precipitaciones y además de forma torrencial. Por si fuera poco, esta zonas se ve afectada por las advecciones (tormentas secas) procedentes de África.
-Comente la relación existente entre los valores de precipitaciones y el relieve de la Península.
El volumen de las precipitaciones aumentan con la altura, pues las nubes al ascender se enfrían y el vapor se condensa (lluvias orográficas). Estos meteoros pueden caer en forma de nieve. Las cordilleras que reciben más lluvias son los Pirineos y la Cordillera Cantábrica, pues aparte de la altura, se encuentran en el extremo norte de la Península, y las precipitaciones aumentan con la latitud. En el resto de España existen focos aislados, verdaderos islotes de la España Húmeda, enclavados en las cumbres más elevadas, por encima de los mil metros normalmente, como las sierras de Guadalupe (Montes de Toledo), Guadarrama (Sistema Central), Segura (Cordilleras Béticas…). Hay que señalar que las cadenas montañosas que se sitúan en el oeste reciben lluvias más abundantes, al recibir las influencias atlánticas (Gredos, Grazalema…)
En las islas también las cumbres concentran las precipitaciones (sierra de la Tramontana en Mallorca y el Teide en Tenerife).
Diga el nombre de las provincias que se ven afectadas por la máxima torrencialidad de las precipitaciones.
Como queda dicho la máxima torrencialidad consiste en precipitaciones catastróficas (en un solo día se recogen más de 400 milímetros o sea la mitad de las precipitaciones de un lugar con lluvias abundantes en todo un año). Se localizan en Gerona, Tarragona, Castellón, Valencia, Murcia, Granada, Cádiz, Cáceres, Lugo y Vizcaya. (La localización es aproximada pues algunos puntos se sitúan en zonas limítrofes entre provincias y regiones como la sierra de Guadalupe). Se trata en todos los casos de regiones montañosas, en las que las tormentas y los cambios bruscos de tiempo son más frecuentes. Más de dos tercios se sitúan en la zona mediterránea. El clima mediterráneo se caracteriza precisamente, por lluvias torrenciales, causadas en otoño por el rápido enfriamiento de este mar y que suele asociarse con fenómenos de gota fría (presencia de aire muy frío en altura).
-Diga en qué sistemas montañosos se registran precipitaciones mayores de 1800 mm.
El Macizo Galaico, la Cordillera Cantábrica, los Montes Vascos, los Pirineos y la Cordillera Penibética (sierra de Grazalema).
-Describa el comportamiento de las precipitaciones en la costa mediterránea.
Las precipitaciones en esta área son escasas (entre 800 y 300 mm al año) y se distribuyen irregularmente, concentrándose en primavera y en otoño. En esta última estación es cuando suele alcanzarse el máximo pluviométrico. Al concentrarse en pocos días las precipitaciones, las lluvias torrenciales son relativamente frecuentes, provocando inundaciones y riadas. El enfriamiento súbito del Mediterráneo a principios del otoño suele provocar el fenómeno conocido como Gota Fría.
-Realice una síntesis de los procesos que originan la desigual distribución de las precipitaciones en España.
La disminución desde el noroeste al sureste, ya que los frentes occidentales pierden actividad.
La disminución desde la costa hacia el interior (la cercanía al mar favorece la llegada de frentes).
La situación periférica de los relieves montañosos obstaculiza la entrada de los frentes (y hace que llueva más en la periferia que en el interior).
El aumento en las vertientes de barlovento (el flanco más cercano al mar) y con la altura (el frío aumenta las posibilidades de condensación del agua). ________________________________________________
Tipos de regímenes fluviales de España
Este ejercicio práctico del examen ha aparecido en tres ocasiones 2012, 2013 y 2015. En sus dos primeras manifestaciones fue escogido como examen de junio, evidenciando que los ejercicios que se muestran en los exámenes titulares de un año, pueden volver a aparecer en los del siguiente. En todos los casos se repiten las mismas preguntas.
Este ejercicio cuenta con evidentes posibilidades de aparecer en las propuestas de 2016. Que aparezca en los exámenes de junio o de septiembre, es ya harina de otro costal.
Las preguntas que se realizan sobre él son las siguientes:
-Identifique las unidades de relieve que presentan un régimen fluvial de montaña.
La Cordillera Cantábrica, los Pirineos, el Sistema Central, el Sistema Ibérico y la Cordillera Penibética.
-Exponga las razones de la inexistencia de redes fluviales importantes en los dos archipiélagos representados.
Las Baleares están situadas en el Mar Mediterráneo, alejadas de los frentes que se forman en el Atlántico. La reducida extensión de estas islas, además, no atrae las lluvias que se forman en el Mediterráneo. Por último el predominio de la roca caliza favorece la filtración de las precipitaciones y la formación de acuíferos, pero dificulta la creación de una red fluvial.
Las Canarias están situadas en las inmediaciones del Trópico de Cáncer, en un área de clima desértico donde predomina la influencia del anticiclón de las Azores. Igualmente la reducida extensión de las islas no favorece la llegada de las lluvias. Por último el predominio de la roca volcánica favorece la escorrentía, pero por su dureza y relieve abrupto dificulta la formación de cursos fluviales.
Por tanto, en ambos archipiélagos predominan los torrentes y los arroyos.
-Explique qué factores influyen en la distribución de los diferentes regímenes fluviales en la España peninsular.
El clima (pero especialmente las precipitaciones). Dependiendo de la distribución de las precipitaciones podemos distinguir entre régimen nival, régimen pluvial y régimen mixto.
El relieve y la topografía, que determinan la organización de las cuencas y vertientes hidrográficas.
El basculamiento de la Meseta hacia el oeste y la presencia del Sistema Ibérico y de la Cordillera Cantábrica determinan la existencia de tres vertientes hidrográficas, con una evidente disimetría entre la atlántica y las otras dos. De todas formas, algunos geógrafos consideran que los ríos atlánticos y los cantábricos forman parte de una misma vertiente.
La topografía, por último, favorece la creación de obras hidráulicas cuando es abrupta.
________________________________________________
Balance Hídrico de las Principales Cuencas Hidrográficas de la Península Ibérica, Baleares y Canarias
Este ejercicio práctico del examen registra seis apariciones en las propuesta de 2001, 2002, 2007, 2008, 2009 y 2015. Sorprendentemente, todas quedaron relegadas al nivel de examen de reserva. En la de 2001 el mapa varía (es monocromo) y las cuestiones que se plantean presentan variaciones entre una convocatoria y otra. En el ejercicio de 2015 se reiteran las mismas preguntas que las de 2002 y 2007. Los números de localización de las cuencas no registran variaciones.
Nos encontramos, por tanto, ante uno de los ejercicios más veteranos de la selectividad y por tanto, terriblemente anticuado. Cuenta con evidentes posibilidades de aparecer en las propuestas de 2016. Que aparezca en los exámenes de junio o de septiembre, es ya harina de otro costal.
Las preguntas que se realizan sobre él son las siguientes:
-Exprese del 1 al 11 los nombres de los principales ríos que alimentan cada una de esas cuencas.
1-Ríos Gallegos (Tambre, Ulla...).
2-El Miño y los ríos de la vertiente cantábrica (Nalón, Deva, Nervión…).
3-Duero.
4-Tajo.
5-Guadiana, Tinto y Odiel.
6-Guadalquivir y Guadalete.
7-Ríos de la vertiente mediterránea sur (Andarax, Almanzora…)
8-Segura.
9-Ríos de la vertiente mediterránea levantina (Júcar, Turia y Mijares)
10-Ebro.
11-Ríos de la vertiente mediterránea catalana (Ter, Llobregat…)
12-Islas Baleares
13-Islas Canarias.
-¿Qué Comunidades Autónomas tienen un balance hídrico negativo?
Cataluña, Comunidad Valenciana, Murcia, Baleares, Canarias y el Este de Andalucía y Castilla-La Mancha.
-Explique los contrastes y variación de los valores del balance hídrico en las cuencas de la vertiente atlántica peninsular.
En la vertiente atlántica existen grandes contrastes entre los ríos gallegos con los balances hídricos más elevados de la Península y el resto. La causa radica en las abundantes lluvias que se registran en esa comunidad autónoma, frente a la relativa escasez del resto del país.
El régimen de los ríos gallegos es, además, bastante regular. En el resto se advierten crecidas en otoño y primavera y un estiaje en el verano que coincide con el mínimo de la precipitación (mayor cuando más meridional es el río).
-Explique las diferencias, en cuanto a la extensión y a la configuración del relieve de las cuencas, de las vertientes cantábrica, atlántica y mediterránea.
La vertiente cantábrica presenta una extensión reducida con ríos cortos (nacen en montañas cercanas a las costas), que presentan un gran desnivel. Los ríos resultan caudalosos y con un régimen bastante regular, por la abundancia y regularidad de lluvias.
La vertiente atlántica ocupa la mayor parte del territorio peninsular. Sus ríos son largos, con escaso desnivel, bien que en muchos tramos van encajonados. La gran extensión de las cuencas los hace más o menos caudalosos. El régimen suele ser irregular, con pronunciados estiajes y crecidas en otoño y primavera.
La vertiente mediterránea ocupa un tercio del territorio peninsular. Con la excepción del Ebro, sus ríos son cortos (nace en montañas cercanas a las costas). El desnivel es notorio y además el curso de estas corrientes suele ir embarrancado. El caudal resulta muy escaso. El régimen es sumamente irregular, con pronunciados estiajes y crecidas en otoño, a menudo catastróficas.
-Explique las causas de la variación de los balances hídricos entre las distintas cuencas.
El balance hídrico relaciona los recursos hídricos existentes y el consumo que se hace de ellos.
La disponibilidad de agua Depende de la extensión de las cuencas, el las precipitaciones medias y la demanda para el uso agrícola, la industria y el consumo humano.
Así nos encontraremos con cuencas con claros sobrantes (ríos cantábricos, ríos gallegos, el Duero, el Tajo y el Ebro), cuencas con equilibrio entre recursos y demanda (Guadiana, Pirineo Oriental y Júcar) y cuencas con déficit evidente (las restantes).
Precisamente la demanda se concentra en áreas con mayor dinamismo económico y geográfico (el arco mediterráneo, los archipiélagos) cuyos recursos hídricos son escasos.
La red de presas y la construcción de plantas desalinizadoras resulta insuficiente para cubrir una demanda en alza.
________________________________________________
La pintura que hemos escogido como emblema es una obra de la pintora inglesa Dora Carrington titulado «Paisaje español con montañas» («Spanish Landscape with Mountains»). Se trata de un óleo sobre lienzo pintado en torno a 1924.
Sus medidas son 55,9 x 66,7 centímetros. Pertenece a la colección de la Tate Gallery (Londres, Inglaterrra, Reino Unido). Entró en la institución en el 2004 como legado de la escritora Frances Partridge. Frances (de soltera Marshall) se casó en 1933 con Ralph Partridge, desconsolado viudo de la propia Carrington. Este vínculo probablemente explique la forma en la que el cuadro acabó en mano de Frances. Fuerza es decir que Dora se suicidó en 1932.
Con bastantes libertades, el óleo debe reproducir el paisaje de Yegen, municipio de las Alpujarras granadina o de sus alrededores. La pintora acudió allí en 1924 (o el año interior) al ser invitada por Gerald Brenan. Este escritor (a quién le negamos olímpicamente el título de «hispanista») mantenía un amor obsesivo (y no correspondido) por Carrington. Y es que los ingleses cuando se autoexilian o hacen viajes de largo recorrido por el extranjero (léase «Continente») llevan bien cargadas las maletas de traumas, conflictos personales y amores difíciles.

Français :
Quincy est une Station du métro de Chicago situé dans le centre-ville de Chicago sur le côté ouest de l'Union Loop dans le secteur communautaire du Loop. Histoire : Conçu par Alfred M. Hedley en bois et en métal estampé, la station Quincy a été ouverte le 3 octobre 1897, elle a conservé une grande partie de son décor d'origine et a été restaurée complètement en 1988 à l’aide des matériaux utilisés à son ouverture. Jusqu’en septembre 1953, Quincy offrait également une correspondance au Wells Street Terminal vers les trains de la Chicago Aurora & Elgin Railroad. Elle est aujourd’hui considérée comme l’un des 150 plus beaux édifices de l’Illinois par l'American Institute of Architects.
english :
Quincy is one of the oldest surviving stations on the Chicago Transit Authority's 'L' system, located in downtown Chicago, Illinois on the Chicago Loop elevated at 220 South Wells Street (directional coordinates 220 south, 200 west). Designed by Alfred M. Hedley from wood and stamped metal, Quincy was opened on October 3, 1897, it retained much of its original decor over the years and was restored in 1988, so that it is considered one of "150 great places in Illinois" by the American Institute of Architects.[2] The station is situated in the South Loop Financial District and is the closest CTA rail station to the Willis Tower, approximately one block west. It is also close to Union Station, the terminal for several Metra and Amtrak routes and about three blocks west of Quincy, although the Clinton station on the Blue Line is much closer.
Quincy is an elevated station, situated above Quincy Street between Adams Street and Jackson Boulevard. It features two side platforms and station houses, one on the west to serve the Outer Loop track, and one on the east to serve the Inner Loop track. Turnstiles for fare payment are located within the station houses on the platform level. The station once had a transfer bridge, but this was removed in the 1980s. This means it is not possible to change from one platform to the other without paying another fare or asking for employee assistance. There are auxiliary rotogate exits to both Adams and Jackson on the Inner Loop platform, while the Outer Loop only has an auxiliary exit to Adams. Both platforms are designed to handle eight-car trains, the longest the CTA 'L' system can run.
Prior to September 1953, the station also featured a walkway to the Wells Street Terminal for convenient transfers to interurban trains of the Chicago Aurora and Elgin Railroad.
As of 2006, Quincy serves the Brown Line (which goes counterclockwise on the Outer Loop) and the Orange and Pink Lines (which go clockwise on the Inner Loop). During weekday rush periods, Purple Line Express trains share the Inner Loop platform with the Pink and Orange Lines.
In the 1980s, Quincy was restored to an appearance much as it would have looked when it opened. Some materials, such as signage, were reproduced although several of the station's features are original to its 1897 opening.
The station served as the backdrop for the music video of Lady Pank's hit "Zawsze Tam Gdzie Ty".

Two York Regional Police Flags were flying. I contacted the current President of the International Police Association (Region 2 Toronto) who is retired from YRP but still works for them on contract. He submitted a request. Today, Jul 13, 2015, I received 2 new YRP flags. I will make the exchange this week.

Torstar: A routine police surveillance operation on the trail of thieves stealing cars and airbags ended in tragedy yesterday when a veteran York Regional Police officer was dragged to his death while trying to arrest a suspect on a quiet residential street in Markham.
York Regional Police Chief Armand La Barge called Const. Rob Plunkett, 43, a "true hero" and said his death marks a dark day for the small GTA force that last lost an officer in the line of duty in 1984.
One man has been charged with manslaughter, the other with theft-related offences.
Both accused were on bail for other charges.

The drama unfolded just before dawn yesterday after investigators had followed a white Honda Civic, registered to a home in Ajax, and a gold Honda, which was stolen but not yet reported as such, from an address in Toronto to Ascot Cres., a winding, tree-lined street not far from Steeles Ave. and Kennedy Rd.
There has been a rash of airbag thefts across York Region, particularly in Markham.
Since January, there have been 43 incidents of airbag thefts and investigators had zeroed in on a couple of suspects.
The undercover officers watched the two cars pull over to the side of Ascot Cres., just around a bend, and saw the driver of the gold Honda attempt to remove an airbag. It was just after 5 a.m. when Plunkett approached the open driver's side, said La Barge.
"As Const. Plunkett attempted to arrest the suspect, the suspect put the vehicle into reverse, and accelerated over a curb, across a lawn and over several shrubs," he said.
Plunkett was then pinned by the open door as it struck a tree on the front lawn of 65 Ascot Cres. As the suspect tried to drive away, the officer was dragged onto a nearby lawn and thrown from the car.
The suspect continued to reverse across the lawn, "at which time assisting officers rammed the vehicle to stop its progress," said La Barge. The suspect fled the car but was quickly arrested.
The second suspect was also arrested trying to flee.
Police said they didn't know why the suspects chose Ascot, except at that time of day it is still dark and there are no surveillance cameras in the immediate area.
Kuo Wan Liu was awake inside his Ascot Cres. home. "There was a big bang noise once, and then a second one," Liu said. "It was not normal. Ascot Crescent is very quiet."
Soon after, a group of people outside were yelling, "`Bleeding! Bleeding! Bleeding!' Very loud," he said.
It's unclear how many officers were at the scene when Plunkett moved in. La Barge said other officers were in the area and responding when Plunkett moved in to make the arrest.
The 22-year veteran had identified himself as a police officer, but detectives will look at what he was wearing and what identification he had, said homicide Det. Kevin Torrie.
Plunkett, married and the father of a daughter, 18, and sons 16 and 14, was rushed to Scarborough Grace Hospital, where he died.
Nadeem Jiwah, 19, has been charged with manslaughter. He was on a recognizance order to live at Hawkeshead Cres.
Baseer Yousafzai, 23, is facing various charges of theft and mischief. He is a landed immigrant from Afghanistan. They're scheduled to make a court appearance in Newmarket today.
A charge of first-degree murder requires evidence of planning and specific intent, second-degree murder covers a "spur of the moment" decision to kill with no planning, and a manslaughter charge can be laid when someone commits an unlawful act that results in someone's death, criminal lawyer Andrew McKay explained.

TORONTO -- At last, the family of York Regional Police Det. Const. Rob Plunkett can begin to heal.
Nadeem Jiwa, the airbag thief convicted of manslaughter in Plunkett's death, has lost an appeal of his sentence and must do the dozen years behind bars he was given in 2011. No more excuses, no more stalling, no more whining. He must do his time.
For Amanda Plunkett, the good news came a day after a grim anniversary - Aug. 7 marked five years since her vibrant father was senselessly killed in the line of duty. From that day of horror, there have been so many difficult stages for the family to endure - Jiwa's preliminary hearing, the trial, a shocking verdict that came back not as murder but manslaughter, and then news that still not satisfied, he was appealing his sentence.
But now, finally, an end.
"It's been hanging over our heads," explained Plunkett's 22-year-old daughter, who is working this summer as an assistant youth probation officer. "We've been waiting for this decision and we can all rest easy now. We're relieved that this last little thing is over now. It's that last bit. There's nothing more he can do."
In a judgment released Wednesday, the Ontario Court of Appeal found Justice Michelle Fuerst's sentence was on the "very high end" for a youthful, first-time offender, but contrary to what his lawyers had argued, it was not demonstrably unfit.
"Police officers carry out an essential and responsible role in society," wrote Justice Eileen Gillese on behalf of a three-judge panel, quoting an earlier decision. "When a police officer is killed in the execution of duty, the community is understandably outraged. In imposing sentence, it is appropriate to reflect society's revulsion for this aspect of the offence."
In the early morning hours of that August day in 2007, 19-year-old Jiwa was on bail facing airbag theft charges and was out well past the 1 a.m. curfew when he was supposed to be tucked in at his mother's home. Instead, he was out with a friend in a Markham, Ont., neighbourhood, stealing a car and valuable airbags. Plunkett , 43, was part of an undercover surveillance unit watching Jiwa and his partner when they were given the order just before 5 a.m. to move in and make the arrests.
With the cops screaming, "Police, police," his partner in crime quickly surrendered, Not Jiwa. He jumped into his stolen gold Honda and threw it into reverse, crushing Plunkett against a tree. And even as the father of three lay collapsed on the ground, the thief kept on reversing. When his car was finally rammed to a stop, Jiwa tried to take off on foot.
He later insisted at his trial that hitting Plunkett had been an accident and he didn't know he was a police officer trying to arrest him.
Charged with first-degree murder, Jiwa was convicted by a jury of the lesser offence of manslaughter in 2011 and sentenced to 12 years in prison and a 10-year driving ban when he's released. In May, Jiwa's lawyers went to the appeal court to argue the sentence was too harsh for a first-offender with genuine remorse.
The learned judges disagreed.
"This was a very serious crime," wrote Justice Sarah Pepall. "Detective Plunkett was killed in the line of duty. His family and colleagues have been devastated by his death. I recognize that Mr. Jiwa was only 19 years of age at the time of the offence, had no previous record, showed some remorse and the killing was involuntary. Nonetheless, the offence was committed while he was on bail for pending air bag theft charges; he was driving a stolen vehicle having spent several hours stealing air bags; and he was in violation of his curfew."
The top court's decision was applauded by John Miskiw, Plunkett's friend and head of the York police association. "Sonja Plunkett and her children deserve some closure to the court process."
But, of course, 12 years doesn't mean 12 years at all and the family will soon have the parole system to confront: Given two-for-one credit for the almost four years he spent in custody, Jiwa has only three years left on his sentence. < As of Sept 2012.

वांग ज़ीहान, शांक्सी प्रान्त
पारस्परिक संबंध एक ऐसा विषय है जो कई लोगों के सिर में दर्द पैदा कर देता है। यह एक ऐसा विषय भी है जिसका अक्सर ईसाई के रूप में एक व्यक्ति पूरे जीवन भर सामना करता है। प्रभु यीशु की अपेक्षा है कि हम एक-दूसरे के साथ सामंजस्य में मिलकर रहें और दूसरों से अपने समान प्यार करें। कई आस्थावान ईसाई भी प्रभु की शिक्षाओं को अभ्यास में लाने के इच्छुक हैं। हालांकि, हकीकत में, जब हम दूसरों के साथ बातचीत करते हैं, तो हम अक्सर संघर्ष और गलतफहमी का सामना करते हैं, वो भी इतना कि हमारे रिश्ते कठोर होकर टूट जाते हैं। इससे हर किसी को दर्द होता है। क्या कारण है कि हम एक-दूसरे के साथ सामंजस्यपूर्ण रूप से रहने में असमर्थ हैं? प्रभु की मंशा के अनुसार हम ईसाई अपने जीवन में दूसरों के साथ कैसे बातचीत कर सकते हैं? अतीत में मुझे जो कठिनाई हुई है, उसमें यह समस्या भी रही है। प्रभु के मार्गदर्शन के लिए उनका धन्यवाद! बाद में, मुझे एक पुस्तक में इस सवाल का जवाब मिला, जिसने मेरी कठिनाइयों का समाधान कर दिया। यहां, मैं अपने अनुभव और समझ के बारे में कुछ बताने जा रही हूँ!
1. आपको दूसरों के साथ उचित और समान व्यवहार करना चाहिए। आपको अपनी भावनाओं और वरीयताओं के आधार पर काम नहीं करना चाहिए।
यीशु ने कहा: "क्योंकि यदि तुम अपने प्रेम रखनेवालों ही से प्रेम रखो, तो तुम्हारे लिये क्या फल होगा? क्या महसूल लेनेवाले भी ऐसा ही नहीं करते? "यदि तुम केवल अपने भाइयों ही को नमस्कार करो, तो कौन सा बड़ा काम करते हो? क्या अन्यजाति भी ऐसा नहीं करते? इसलिये चाहिये कि तुम सिद्ध बनो, जैसा तुम्हारा स्वर्गीय पिता सिद्ध है" (मत्ती 5:46–48)। प्रभु के वचनों से, मैं समझ गयी कि परमेश्वर की अपेक्षा है कि ईसाई जन अपने जीवन में दूसरों के साथ परमेश्वर के वचनों के अनुसार व्यवहार करें। उन्हें अपनी भावनाओं और वरीयताओं के अनुसार ऐसा नहीं करना चाहिए। जब मैं इस बारे में सोचती हूँ कि दूसरों के साथ हम कैसे बातचीत करते हैं, तो मुझे एहसास होता है कि जब हम दूसरों से लाभ या सहायता प्राप्त करते हैं, तो हम उस दूसरे पक्ष के प्रति आनंदित और आभारी हो जाते हैं। हालांकि, जब अन्य लोग कुछ ऐसा कहते या करते है जो हमें नुकसान पहुंचाता है, तो हम इस दूसरे व्यक्ति से घृणा करने लग जाते हैं और उस पर ज़्यादा ध्यान नहीं देते हैं। जब हम किसी ऐसे व्यक्ति का सामना करते हैं जिसे हम पसंद करते हैं, तो हम उसके करीब आते हैं और उसे अपने पास खींच लेते हैं; जब हम किसी ऐसे व्यक्ति का सामना करते हैं जिसे हम पसंद नहीं करते हैं, तो हम उसे अस्वीकार कर देते हैं और उससे दूर चले जाते हैं। जिनके पास ऊँची हैसियत या अधिक शक्ति है, हम उनकी खूब प्रशंसा करते हैं और उनकी चाटुकारिता करते हैं। जिनके पास हैसियत या शक्ति नहीं है, हम उन्हें अस्वीकार करते हैं और उन्हें अपमानित करते हैं। कोई ऐसा जिसके लिए हमारी वरीयता होती है यदि वो हमारी कमियों को बताता है, तो हम इसे स्वीकार करने में सक्षम होते हैं। लेकिन जिसके लिए हमारी वरीयता नहीं होती, यदि वो कुछ ऐसा करता है, तो हम इसे स्वीकार नहीं करते हैं, हम इसका औचित्य सिद्ध करते हैं और कभी-कभी हम उनसे घृणा भी करते हैं, उसके साथ लड़ने लगते हैं और यहां तक कि उस पर हमला भी करते हैं। ये सभी किसी व्यक्ति द्वारा अपनी खुद की भावनाओं और प्राथमिकताओं का पालन करने और दूसरों के साथ समान रूप से व्यवहार न करने के उदाहरण हैं। यह वह तरीका भी है जिसके अनुसार अविश्वासी दूसरों के साथ व्यवहार करते हैं। यदि कोई ईसाई दूसरों के साथ इस तरह से व्यवहार करता है, तो वो उसी रास्ते पर चल रहा है जिस पर एक अविश्वासी चलता है, वह प्रभु में विश्वासी कहलाने योग्य नहीं हैं और वो जो कर रहा है वह परमेश्वर के इरादे के अनुसार नहीं है। प्रभु में विश्वासियों के तौर पर, हमें उसकी शिक्षाओं को अभ्यास में लाना चाहिए। हमें दूसरों से अपने समान प्यार करना चाहिए। जब तक कि किसी की मानवता अच्छी है, वह वास्तव में परमेश्वर में विश्वास करता है और सत्य से प्यार करता है, तो वो हमारी प्राथमिकताओं, मिजाज़, चरित्र के साथ संगत हो या ना हो, चाहे हम उसे पसंद करते हों या न करते हों और भले ही वे साधारण भाई बहन हों या कलीसिया के अगुआ हों, हमें ईमानदारी से और निष्पक्षता से उनके साथ व्यवहार करना चाहिए। हमें उनके प्रति सहिष्णुता, धैर्य और प्यार दिखाना चाहिए। हमें धोखाधड़ी और भेदभाव नहीं करना चाहिए। केवल ऐसा करके ही हम परमेश्वर की मंशा के अनुसार होंगे।
2. दूसरों की कमियों और प्रकट की गयी भ्रष्टता को उचित ढंग से सम्बोधित करें। मनमाने ढंग से दूसरों को परिभाषित और उनकी आलोचना ना करें।
यीशु ने कहा: "दोष मत लगाओ कि तुम पर भी दोष न लगाया जाए। क्योंकि जिस प्रकार तुम दोष लगाते हो, उसी प्रकार तुम पर भी दोष लगाया जाएगा; और जिस नाप से तुम नापते हो, उसी नाप से तुम्हारे लिये भी नापा जाएगा" (मत्ती 7:1–2)। प्रभु की शिक्षाओं ने मुझे यह समझने में मदद की है कि हम सभी वो लोग हैं जो शैतान द्वारा भ्रष्ट किये गए हैं। हमारा भ्रष्ट स्वभाव एक जैसा है। अगर दूसरे एक घमंडी, दम्भी, स्वार्थी और घृणित शैतानी स्वभाव प्रकट करते हैं, तो हम भी वही स्वभाव प्रकट कर सकते हैं। हमारे अंदर दूसरों के समान ही कमियाँ हैं। हम दूसरों की तुलना में बेहतर नहीं हैं। अगर हम दूसरों की कमियों और भ्रष्टाचार के कारण उनकी आलोचना करते हैं और उन्हें परिभाषित करते हैं, तो हम वास्तव में घमंडी हैं और स्वयं के बारे में हमें बहुत कम ज्ञान है! इसलिए, दूसरे चाहे जो भ्रष्टाचार और अपराध प्रकट करें उसके बावजूद, हमें उन्हें सही तरीके से संबोधित करना होगा और हमें मनमाने ढंग से उनकी आलोचना और उन्हें परिभाषित नहीं करना चाहिए। पापियों को संबोधित करते समय यीशु का जो रवैया था, जैसा कि बाइबल में लिखा है, उसे याद रखें: फ़रीसी एक व्यभिचारी महिला को पकड़ कर यीशु के सामने लाये। उन्होंने यीशु से पूछा कि इस महिला के साथ कैसा व्यवहार किया जाना चाहिए। उस समय के कानूनों के मुताबिक, महिला की पत्थर मार-मार कर हत्या कर देनी चाहिए थी। हालाँकि, यीशु ने उसे उसके पापों के लिए दोषी नहीं ठहराया। उसने बस उस महिला को भविष्य में पाप ना करने के लिए कहा। (यूहन्ना 8: 3-11 देखें।) इस अवतरण से, हम देख सकते हैं कि यीशु उस दर्द और असहायता को समझता है जिसे वे लोग महसूस करते हैं जिन्हें शैतान द्वारा भ्रष्ट किया गया है और जो पाप में रहते हैं। उसने मनुष्य की कमज़ोरी के प्रति करुणा महसूस की। जब हमने भ्रष्टाचार प्रकट किया है या अपराध किए हैं, तो जब तक हम वास्तव में पश्चाताप करते हैं, परमेश्वर हमें पश्चाताप करने और बदलने के लिए पर्याप्त समय देगा। हमें यीशु के उदाहरण का भी पालन करना चाहिए और अन्य लोगों की कमियों और प्रकट की गयी भ्रष्टता को सही तरीके से संबोधित करना चाहिए। हमें विकास के परिप्रेक्ष्य के माध्यम से दूसरों को देखना चाहिए। यह अन्य लोगों से निपटने का एक सिद्धांत भी है जो ईसाइयों के जीवन में होना चाहिए। यदि अन्य लोगों के लिए हमारी मांगें कठोर हैं, हम बाल की खाल निकालते हैं और मनमाने ढंग से लोगों की आलोचना तक करते हैं, यदि हम लोगों को परिभाषित करते हैं और उनकी कमियों को खोजने के बाद यह निष्कर्ष निकालते हैं कि वे निकम्मे हैं, तो यह दूसरों के साथ निपटने के लिए एक अहंकारी और दम्भी भ्रष्ट स्वभाव का उपयोग करने का एक उदाहरण है। यदि आप ऐसा करते हैं, तो यह परमेश्वर के इरादे के अनुसार नहीं है और आप दूसरों के साथ सामान्य संबंध बिल्कुल नहीं रख पाएंगे।
अब मैं अपने कुछ अनुभव आप सभी को बताती हूँ। हमारी कलीसिया में, एक बहन है जो अपने अविश्वासी पति के कारण समय पर सभाओं में भाग लेने में असमर्थ है। मैंने कई बार इस बहन से बात की थी, लेकिन वह अभी भी नकारात्मकता और कमजोरी में जी रही थी। मैं इस लेकर बहुत नाराज थी और इसलिए मैंने उसे ऐसे व्यक्ति के रूप में परिभाषित किया जो वास्तव में परमेश्वर में विश्वास नहीं करती थी। मैं अब और उसकी मदद या सहायता नहीं करना चाहती थी। बाद में, मैंने बाइबल में लिखे ये वचन पढ़े: "खानेवाला न–खानेवाले को तुच्छ न जाने, और न–खानेवाला खानेवाले पर दोष न लगाए; क्योंकि परमेश्वर ने उसे ग्रहण किया है। तू कौन है जो दूसरे के सेवक पर दोष लगाता है? उसका स्थिर रहना या गिर जाना उसके स्वामी ही से सम्बन्ध रखता है; वरन् वह स्थिर ही कर दिया जाएगा, क्योंकि प्रभु उसे स्थिर रख सकता है" (रोमियों 14:3-4)। मुझे बहुत शर्मिंदगी महसूस हुयी। मैंने उन समयों के बारे में सोचा जब मैं पराजित, नकारात्मक और कमज़ोर महसूस करती थी। परमेश्वर ने मेरे भाई-बहनों को भावनात्मक रूप से छुआ ताकि वे आगे आएं और परमेश्वर के वचनों को कई बार पढ़कर मुझे सुनाएं। वे मेरी सहायता करने और मुझे सहारा देने के लिए मुझसे बातचीत करते और अपने अनुभव मुझे बताया करते। केवल परमेश्वर के वचनों के मार्गदर्शन से ही मैं दृढ़ता से खड़ी हो पायी। मेरे पास कुछ भी ऐसा नहीं था जिस पर मैं गर्व कर सकती थी। अब, यह बहन अपने पति की बाधाओं के कारण समय पर सभाओं में भाग लेने में असमर्थ थी। मुझे एक प्यार करने वाले दिल के साथ उसकी मदद करनी चाहिए थी, फिर भी मैं इस बहन के जीवन के बारे में चिंतित नहीं थी। मैंने उसे टालने की कोशिश भी की और उसे ऐसे व्यक्ति के रूप में परिभाषित किया जो वास्तव में परमेश्वर में विश्वास नहीं करती थी। जब मैंने खुद पर नज़र डाली, तो मुझे लगा कि मैं बहुत अहंकारी थी। मैंने इस बहन के साथ प्यार भरे दिल या धैर्य से व्यवहार नहीं किया। मेरे पास ऐसा कुछ भी नहीं था जो कि परमेश्वर के इरादों के अनुसार था। एक बार जब मैं यह समझ गयी, फिर मैंने परमेश्वर के सामने अपने पाप स्वीकार किए और पश्चाताप किया: मैं इस बहन की मदद करने और सहारा देने के लिए तैयार थी। इसके बाद, मैंने इस बहन को प्यार भरे दिल के साथ परमेश्वर के वचन सुनाये और मैंने अपने कुछ अनुभव और समझ को भी साझा किया। उसके साथ कुछ बार संवाद करने के बाद, वह अब अपने पति के नियंत्रण के अधीन नहीं थी और उसकी स्थितियों में धीरे-धीरे सुधार हुआ। इस अनुभव से मैंने जो सीखा वह यह है कि किसी भी भाई या बहन के अंदर चाहे जो भी कमियां और कमज़ोरियाँ हों, या वे जो भी भ्रष्टाचार प्रकट करें, जब तक कि वे वास्तव में परमेश्वर पर विश्वास करते हैं और जब वे गलती करते हैं तो परमेश्वर के सामने पश्चाताप कर सकते हैं, परमेश्वर उन्हें बदलने का एक अवसर देगा। यही कारण है कि हमें दूसरों की प्यार भरे दिल से मदद करनी चाहिए, उन्हें माफ करना चाहिए और प्रत्येक व्यक्ति के साथ परमेश्वर की अपेक्षाओं के अनुसार व्यवहार करना चाहिए। हमें बिल्कुल भी मनमाने ढंग से अन्य लोगों को परिभाषित नहीं करना चाहिए और उनकी आलोचना नहीं करनी चाहिए। इसी प्रकार से एक व्यक्ति लोगों के साथ समान रूप से और परमेश्वर की मंशा के अनुसार व्यवहार करता है।
3. आपको अन्य लोगों को कम या ज़्यादा करके नहीं आँकना चाहिए। दूसरों की खूबियों से सीखें और अपनी कमियों को दूर करें।
बाइबल कहती है: "विरोध या झूठी बड़ाई के लिये कुछ न करो, पर दीनता से एक दूसरे को अपने से अच्छा समझो" (फिलिप्पियों 2:3)। परमेश्वर ने हममें से प्रत्येक को अलग-अलग क्षमता, प्रतिभा और खूबियां दी है। इस कारण से, अपने भाइयों और बहनों के साथ बातचीत करते समय हमें विनम्र दिल रखना चाहिए और हमें दूसरों की खूबियों और कमियों को सही ढंग से देखना चाहिए। हमें दूसरों को कम या ज़्यादा करके नहीं आँकना चाहिए। हमें दूसरों की खूबियों को ग्रहण करना चाहिए ताकि हम अपनी कमियों को दूर कर सकें। यदि हम अपनी खूबियों, क्षमता और प्रतिभा के कारण दूसरों को नीची दृष्टि से देखते हैं और असीम ढंग से अपनी ताकत बढ़ाते हैं, जिसके माध्यम से हम दिखावा करते हैं और डींगे हाँकते हैं, साथ ही दूसरों की आलोचना करते हैं, नीचा दिखाते हैं और नुकसान पहुंचाते हैं, तो हम अपने अहंकारी और दम्भी भ्रष्ट स्वभाव द्वारा इस प्रकार से नियंत्रित किये जा रहे हैं। एक ईसाई को इस तरह का जीवन नहीं जीना चाहिए। उदाहरण के लिए, पहले, मैं हमेशा सोचती थी कि मेरी खुद की क्षमता अपने साथ काम कर रही एक बहन की तुलना में बेहतर थी, इसलिए मैं उसे नीची दृष्टि से देखती थी। एकसाथ हमारे काम के दौरान, मैं जाने-अनजाने में दिखावा करती थी और मेरा दिल अपने लिए घमंड से भरा हुआ था। मेरे भ्रष्ट स्वभाव के कारण परमेश्वर को मुझसे घृणा हो गयी और इसके कारण परमेश्वर ने मेरी ओर से अपना मुँह मोड़ लिया। मेरी आत्मा अँधेरी और निराशापूर्ण हो गई। मेरे काम में कई स्पष्ट समस्याएं थीं जिन्हें मैं खोज पाने में असमर्थ थी, जबकि इस बहन का काम धीरे-धीरे बेहतर होता चला गया। मैंने उस बारे में सोचा जो यीशु ने कहा था: "जो कोई अपने आप को बड़ा बनाएगा, वह छोटा किया जाएगा: और जो कोई अपने आपको छोटा बनाएगा, वह बड़ा किया जाएगा" (मत्ती 23:12)। इसी समय मैंने देखा कि मैं कितनी अहंकारी थी। मैं खुद से अवगत नहीं थी। असल में, यह पवित्र आत्मा के काम के कारण है कि मेरे काम ने कुछ परिणाम उत्पन्न किये थे या मैं कुछ समस्याओं को खोजने में सक्षम थी। हालाँकि, मैंने अभी भी परमेश्वर का सम्मान चुराया था और मैं बेहद आत्मतुष्ट थी और अपने खुद के अहंकार की प्रशंसा करती थी। मैं अपने साथी भाइयों और बहनों को नीची दृष्टि से देखती थी। हकीकत में, मैं बहुत ही अविवेकी थी! साथ ही, मुझे पता था कि मुझे खुद को कैसे जाने देना है यह सीखने की जरूरत है। मुझे अपनी कमियों को दूर करने के लिए उस बहन की खूबियों को खुले दिमाग से आत्मसात करना था। केवल अगर मैंने ऐसा किया तभी परमेश्वर प्रसन्न होगा और मेरा जीवन लगातार बढ़ेगा। नतीजतन, मैंने ऐसा करना शुरू कर दिया। जब ऐसी समस्याएं आतीं जिन्हें मैं समझ नहीं पाती थी, तो मैं उस बहन से उसकी सलाह माँगती। अगर मैं मुद्दों का सामना करती, तो मैं उनके साथ उन पर चर्चा करती। तब मैंने पाया कि वास्तव में उसमें ऐसी कई खूबियां थीं जिनका मुझमें अभाव था। मेरे दिल ने बहुत अपमानित महसूस किया। मैं यह भी समझ गयी कि परमेश्वर ने ऐसी व्यवस्था की थी कि मैं इस बहन के साथ काम करूँ क्योंकि वह चाहता था कि मैं अपनी कमियों को दूर करूँ। वह चाहता था कि जो काम उसने हमें सौंपा था उसको करने के लिए हम सामंजस्यपूर्ण रूप से सहयोग करें। धीरे-धीरे, इस बहन के साथ मेरा रिश्ता सामान्य हो गया और मुझे एक बार फिर पवित्र आत्मा का काम प्राप्त हुआ।
4. जब आप यह पाते हैं कि अन्य लोग ऐसी चीज़ें करते हैं जो आपके विचारों से मेल नहीं खाती हैं, तो दूसरे व्यक्ति पर अपनी नज़रें न गड़ायें। इसके बजाय, आपको पहले खुद को पहचानना चहिये और सत्य का अभ्यास करना चाहिये।
यीशु ने कहा: "तू क्यों अपने भाई की आँख के तिनके को देखता है, और अपनी आँख का लट्ठा तुझे नहीं सूझता? जब तेरी ही आँख में लट्ठा है, तो तू अपने भाई से कैसे कह सकता है, 'ला मैं तेरी आँख से तिनका निकाल दूँ?' हे कपटी, पहले अपनी आँख में से लट्ठा निकाल ले, तब तू अपने भाई की आँख का तिनका भली भाँति देखकर निकाल सकेगा" (मत्ती 7:3–5)। जब हम दूसरों के साथ बातचीत करते हैं, तो कुछ टकराव और पूर्वाग्रह होना निश्चित है। इन क्षणों पर, हमें इस बात पर ध्यान नहीं देना चाहिए कि दूसरा पक्ष क्या गलत कर रहा है और हमेशा यह नहीं मानना चाहिए कि दूसरे पक्ष की ही गलती है। इसके बजाय, हमें परमेश्वर के सामने आना और परमेश्वर के वचन के भीतर सत्य को तलाशना सीखना चाहिए ताकि हम यह पता लगा सकें कि हमारी अपनी समस्याएं कहाँ हैं। एक बार जब हम परमेश्वर के इरादे को समझ लेते हैं और अपने भ्रष्ट स्वभाव की समझ पा लेते हैं, तो हम खुद को अन्य लोगों की जगह रख कर देख पाएंगे और चीजों को उनके नज़रिए से समझ पाएंगे। हम दूसरों को समझ पायेंगे, उनके साथ सहानुभूति रखने और सहिष्णु होने में सक्षम होंगे। इस बिंदु पर, दूसरों के लिए हमारा पूर्वाग्रह स्वाभाविक रूप से कम हो जाएगा।
इस पहलू के संबंध में मुझे कुछ गहरे अनुभव हुए हैं। मुझे याद है कि एक बहन जिसके साथ मैंने काम किया था, उसने कई बार यह इशारा किया कि कलीसिया के काम के संबंध में मैंने अपना दायित्व नहीं निभाया था। हालाँकि, न केवल मैं इसे परमेश्वर से प्राप्त करने में असमर्थ थी, वास्तव में, मुझे यह भी संदेह था कि यह बहन जान-बूझकर मुझमें मीन-मेख निकाल रही थी और मेरी जिंदगी मुश्किल बना रही थी। मेरे दिल ने इस बहन की तरफ पूर्वाग्रह पैदा करना शुरू कर दिया और अब मैं इस बहन के साथ सेवा नहीं करना चाहती थी। जब मैंने परमेश्वर के वचन को पढ़ा और परमेश्वर की मंशा को ढूंढा, तो मुझे समझ में आया कि मेरा स्वयं का अहंकारी और दम्भी शैतानी स्वभाव मुझे नियंत्रित कर रहा था और मुझे इस बहन के सुझावों को स्वीकारने नहीं दे रहा था। इससे मुझे उसके बारे में संदेह भी हुआ। इसी कारण इस बहन के साथ सामान्य बातचीत करने में मैं असमर्थ हो गयी। साथ ही, मुझे पता था कि जिन लोगों, घटनाओं और चीजों का मैं हर रोज सामना करती थी, सभी परमेश्वर द्वारा निर्देशित और व्यवस्थित थे। यह परमेश्वर था जो सावधानी से इन चीजों को मुझे बदलने और बचाने के लिए व्यवस्थित कर रहा था, न कि वह बहन जानबूझकर मेरे लिए चीजों को मुश्किल बनाना चाहती थी। मुझे परमेश्वर को समर्पण करना चाहिए, खुद को जाने देना और उस बहन के सही सुझावों को स्वीकार करना सीखना चाहिए। इसके बाद, मैं परमेश्वर के सामने गयी और खुद पर विचार किया। बहन के सुझावों से, मैं देख सकती थी कि वास्तव में मैं कलीसिया के काम के संबंध में अपनी जिम्मेदारियों को नहीं उठा रही थी। जो भी अगुवा मेरे लिए करने की व्यवस्था करते थे, मैं वो करती थी, फिर भी मैंने कभी यह नहीं सोचा कि मैं कलीसिया के काम को और भी बेहतर कैसे कर सकती हूँ। एक बार जब मैं परमेश्वर के इरादे को समझ गयी, तो मैं चीजों को परमेश्वर की अपेक्षाओं के अनुरूप करने लगी। मैंने सक्रिय रूप से और खुले दिल से इस बहन के सामने अपना भ्रष्टाचार प्रकट किया और मैंने परमेश्वर से भी मुझे और अधिक ज़िम्मेदारियाँ देने को कहा। जब मैंने परिस्थितियों का सामना किया, तो मैंने इस बारे में और सोचा कि मैं कलीसिया को कैसे लाभ पहुंचा सकती हूँ। जब मैं चीजों को इस तरह से अभ्यास में लायी, तो एक समय जो गलतफहमी इस बहन के साथ हुआ करती थी वो खत्म हो गयी। हम आध्यात्मिक रूप से जुड़ गये और जो सद्भावना पहले हमारे बीच थी, वो एक बार फिर बहाल हो गयी।
अभ्यास के चार सिद्धांत वे चीजें थीं जिन्हें मैंने अपने अनुभवों से सीखा था। मैंने सचमुच अनुभव किया कि एक ईसाई के जीवन में परमेश्वर का वचन मार्ग दिखाने वाला प्रकाश है। यह हमारे पथ के लिए दिशासूचक है। परमेश्वर के वचन के मार्गदर्शन के बिना, हमारे पास चलने को कोई रास्ता नहीं होगा। हमें बस इतना करना है कि हम परमेश्वर की शिक्षाओं को अभ्यास में लायें और सभी के साथ समान रूप से व्यवहार करें। केवल तभी हम वास्तविक मनुष्य के समान जीवन जीने में सक्षम होंगे, दूसरों के साथ अच्छी तरह से मिल-जुलकर रह पाएंगे, हमारे आस-पास के लोगों को लाभ पाने देंगे, साथ ही, हम परमेश्वर को संतुष्ट करने और हमें सराहने का कारण देंगे।
परमेश्वर के मार्गदर्शन के लिए उसका धन्यवाद। परमेश्वर की महिमा बनी रहे!
संपादक की टिप्पणी: परमेश्वर के प्रबोधन और मार्गदर्शन के कारण, जब तक कि इस निबंध में वर्णित चार सिद्धांतों का कोई अभ्यास करता है, तो मानव संबंधों के विषय में जिन समस्याओं का सामना उसे करना पड़ता है, वे जादुई रूप से गायब हो जाएंगीं। कल्पना कीजिए कि हमारे जीवन कितने बेहतर होंगे यदि हम ईसाईयों के रूप में परमेश्वर के वचनों को अभ्यास में लाने और दूसरों के साथ सामंजस्यपूर्ण ढंग से जीने में सक्षम हों जाएँ! इस तरह का जीवन कोई कहाँ पा सकता है? संपादक की सलाह है कि आप इस ईसाई भजन को सुनें: "परमेश्वर का प्यार हमें एक दूसरे के करीब लाता है"। इस भजन को सुनने के बाद, आपको आपका जवाब मिल जाएगा।

SML Pro Blog: SoundCloud = Innovative Social Network for Musicians
SoundCloud is a social network startup for musicians based in Berlin. Originally from Stockholm, the founders created the site after they have grown "tired of getting emails with YouSentIt links or FTP log-ins just to be able to check out our friends latest soon-to-be released tracks."
Just a couple of years ago, when you mention music and social networks, the first site that came to mind is MySpace. Yes, MySpace is a social network and they do put much weight on music and musicians, but MySpace fails to innovate beyond implementing comments + music player, and that is barely social. In this blog post I will go through the many innovations SoundCloud brought to the music scene and explain why I like it so much.

Wednesday 19 February 2014: Neltner Refuge (3207 m / 10522 ft) - Toubkal (جبل توبقال) (4167 m / 13671 ft) - Neltner Refuge (3207 m / 10522 ft)
An early rise and shine at the Neltner Refuge - 5.53am alarm, breakfast back down in the dining room at 6.30am ish, donning waterproofs, boots, then outside for crampon lacing and ice axe wrangling (and photos) and we were ready and raring to go on our Mt Toubkal ascent by 7.15am. Beautiful clear blue skies, pristine snow and very cold. We'd had feather patterned ice on the inside of our dorm window this morning.
After a bit of stopping and starting we found our pace, with Hussein-the-guide leading the way and Mohammed bringing up the rear, and eventually splitting into two groups. Strong winds en route brought the temperature down further and whipped up the snow - beautiful but occasionally painful. You needed to keep moving. My ears got very cold (hence the scarf-as-headscarf look in the photos). Towards the top of the valley, the morning sun caught up with us, providing a touch of warmth but making the snowscape very bright. Time to don the Julbo sunglasses (another image element I'd rather be without!).
Just after 11am we reached the head of the valley - Tizi'n'Toubkal (3940 m / 12926 ft) - and were rewarded with a magical view east of misty blue ridges and, somewhere beyond that, the Sahara. Looking behind us we could see the valley we'd climbed through, to the north the path up to the peak - the metal pyramid on top making it easy to identify. A very photogenic stop, and Hussein found us a sheltered spot for a bit of a breather before the final push up and round to the very top of Toubkal.
We summited at 11.45am or there abouts, and once we'd caught our breaths it was time for celebratory snaps, sweets and mélange courtesy of Hussein. Tara, Liz, Denyse and Mohammed arrived about half an hour later accompanied by another group who were carrying skis on their packs, planning to a ski descent. Now that's what I call nuts (but then again, I don't ski....). More photos, plus bread and cheese triangles to celebrate. Beautiful panoramic views under blue skies - who could ask for more?
A speedy descent - due to a combination of taking a more direct path down and gravity, plus the lure of lunch back at the refuge. The wind had dropped and it got hot clad in accumulated thermals. I'd settled on Uniqlo polo neck base layer, M&S thermal top, Mountain Kingdoms fleece, plus my Goretex jacket on top; for bottoms, Icebreaker thermal leggings, Gelert trousers, Tibetan waterproof trews (admittedly a little on the short side) plus gaiters - a lower half look reminiscent of Little Lord Fauntleroy. As I'd absent-mindedly done yesterday's crampon training in my Salomon hiking boots (Women's Sector Mid GTX), I'd worn them again today - my new Scarpas didn't get a look in on this trip. My Mountain Equipment Women's Randonee Mitts were invaluable, as were (Hazel's - thank you...) trekking poles.
We were back at the refuge around 3.30pm, and by 4 o'clock were feasting on a late lunch of pasta, lentils, carrots, peas, cucumber/tomato/red onion/sweetcorn salad, bread and olives, accompanied by lots of tea and rounded off with the zingyest clementines I've ever tasted - it's citrus season, and these are fully ripened, fresh fruit.
As the wood stove warmed the dining room, afternoon tea followed at 5.30pm - paratha-y pancakes drizzled with honey - followed by dinner at 7pm. Bed followed not long after (and a good night's sleep, partly due to escaping last night's condensation drips).
A fantastic day.
PS It looks like we did the South Col / Cwm (Irhzer n'Ikhibi Janoub) route.

Our Lady & The English Martyrs, Cambridge
stepneyrobarts.blogspot.co.uk/2013/02/our-lady-english-ma...
Yesterday I revisited St Peter for internals and finished of Cambridge, visiting seven Victorian built churches only one of which, Our Lady & The English Martyrs, is worth writing up.
At first sight I wrote OLEM off as a Victorian Gothic monstrosity but as I wandered around the exterior I was struck by the quality of the building and the interior stunned me with lots of rather good glass and impressive architecture (oh and apart from three revisits, Babraham, Guilden Morden and Stow cum Quy, that finished the north west quadrant).
The Church of Our Lady and the English Martyrs, or OLEM, is situated in the heart of the city of Cambridge. An imposing example of the 19th Century Gothic Revival, it was built to the designs of Dunn & Hansom of Newcastle between 1885 and 1890, and founded solely by Mrs Yolande Marie Louise Lyne-Stephens, a former ballet dancer at the Paris Opera and Drury Lane, London, and widow of a wealthy banker. She promised to build the church on the feast of Our Lady of the Assumption, and Monsignor Christopher Scott - the first Rector - also wished to commemorate the Catholic Martyrs who died between 1535 and 1681, over thirty of whom had been in residence at the University.
Designed by architects Dunn and Hansom of Newcastle and built by the Cambridge firm of Rattee and Kett, OLEM is constructed in Casterton, Ancaster and Combe Down Stone. The church is a traditional cruciform structure in the early-decorated style with a large tower at the crossing, a polygonal apse and a west bell tower with a 65-metre spire, visible for miles around Cambridge. Quite often, it is quoted by visitors and local residents as a location point. The approximate internal dimensions of the church are: length 48 meters [156 ft] width across the aisles 16 meters [51 ft] width at the transepts 22 meters [71 ft], the height of the nave 15 meters [71ft].
Inside and over the west door stands the figure of Our Lady of the Assumption crowned with lilies and standing on the crescent moon with the vanquished serpent beneath. The west window shows the English Martyrs arranged in two principal groups, the clergy on the south side with St John Fisher in their midst and the laity on the north grouped round St Thomas More.
Beside the South aisle is an ancient statue of Our Lady with the Child Jesus. This statue is understood to be a gift in 1850 from Emmanuel College, which was built on the site of a Dominican Priory dating back to 1274. The Church of the Black Friars of Cambridge contained a statue of Our Blessed Lady to which much pilgrimage was had. Although unconfirmed this could be that statue.
The Chapel of the Holy Souls with the book of Remembrance is located at the west end of the south aisle. The sculpture above the altar depicts the solace and relief of the Holy Souls in Purgatory through the intercession of Our Lady and the angel who comforted Our Lord in Gethsemane. The Chapel is now appropriately used at the two great Christian celebrations: at Easter for the Empty Tomb indicating the Risen Lord, and at Christmas for the Crib.
The aisle windows were almost completely destroyed when the church was struck by a bomb on 1941, but were subsequently replaced in their original form. They epitomise the various sufferings of the English Martyrs, their being brought before the Council, racked, hung, drawn and quartered in the sight and sympathy of the faithful. The windows of the north aisle portray Carthusians, St Thomas Moore, B. Margaret Pole and others, while the south aisle is made a “Fisher Aisle”, devoted to scenes from the life of St John, Cardinal Bishop of Rochester, who in so many important ways is identified with Cambridge.
The best general impression of the interior is obtained from the gateway in the iron screen dividing the nave from the ante-chapel. The heads of the four great preachers of Our Lady’s Graces are carved in the four corners of the nave. The windows along the nave represent saints connected with the Church in Britain, arranged approximately in chronological order from east to west with a few additional figures in the eastern windows.
The Rood which is between the nave and the sanctuary is of the type known as “Majestas”; the figure of Our Lord, with glorified wounds, robed in alb, stole and pallium [as High Priest] and crowned [as King “reigning from the Tree”]. This was the earliest type of crucifix; the realistic figure, now almost universal, did not come into general use until the beginning of the thirteenth century. The cross, inspired by that at Nuremberg, is about 6 metres high, carved in oak; the figures of Christ and of Our Lady and of Saint John are of Kauri pine. They were carved locally by Mr. B. Maclean Leach and completed and blessed in 1914.
Beyond the present, modern altar is the High Altar with the relics of Saints Felix and Constantia, martyrs of the early Church. The tabernacle and ornaments of the altar are of exquisite French workmanship from Lyons. The baldacchino which covers the High Altar is similar to that over the tomb of Robert the Wise (1275-1343) at Santa Chiara, Naples. It is one of the earliest forms of adornment of a Christian altar. At the top is the figure of Our Lord in glory supported on each side by angels in act of adoration.
The design and the re-ordering of the sanctuary was done by Mr. Gerard Goalen of Harlow after the Second Vatican Council. On 7th April, 1973, Bishop Charles Grant consecrated the present central. The original High Altar has subsequently been used mainly for reservation of the Blessed Sacrament.

Fra Salmonsens konversationsleksikon:
Svendsen, Johan Severin, norsk Komponist og Dirigent, f. 30. Septbr 1840 i Oslo, d. 14. Juni 1911 i Kbhvn. Han lærte tidlig at spille Fløjte og Klarinet, men særlig Violin, som han havde betydelige Anlæg for. Senere spillede han snart i Teaterorkestre, snart til Dans og rejste 21 Aar gl ud som koncerterende Violonist. 1863 kom han til Konservatoriet i Leipzig, hvor han under Lærere som Hauptmann, David, Richter og Reinecke hurtig udviklede sine rige Evner. Samtidig komponerede han flere Værker, der vakte den største Opmærksomhed. 1867 forlod han Konservatoriet og Leipzig med et Navn, hvoraf der allerede stod Glans og Respekt, men allerede Vaaren 1868 drog han til Paris, og Opholdet her blev af den største Bet. for ham. Som Musiker virkede han i Odéon-Teatret, hvor han baade som Violinist og Orkesterarrangør snart tiltrak sig alm. Opmærksomhed. Han begyndte her paa den symfoniske Indledning til »Sigurd Slembe«, skrev Violinkoncerten Op. 6 og nogle Orkesterbearbejdelser af Liszt og Schubert. Kort før Udbruddet af den fransk-tyske Krig 1870 drog han til Leipzig, hvor han modtog det ærefulde Tilbud om at overtage Koncertmesterposten i »Euterpe«. Sæsonen 1870—71 dirigerede han sin D-Dur-Symfoni i »Gewandhaus« og opnaaede baade som Komponist og Dirigent en fuldstændig Succes. Han skrev i denne Tid Violoncelkoncerten Op. 7. Høsten 1871 overtog han for et Aar Dirigentposten ved »Euterpe«-Koncerterne, fuldendte den symfoniske Indledning til »Sigurd Slembe«, der saa blev opført i »Euterpe«, og i Løbet af Vinteren blev Violinkoncerten spillet i »Gewandhaus« af Robert Heckmann. Efteraaret 1872 vendte han hjem til Oslo. Her havde Edvard Grieg Aaret før stiftet Musikforeningen, der vel trængte til den Støtte, den kunde faa i S.’s overlegne Evner som Dirigent; dels sammen med Grieg, dels alene ledede han nu Foreningens Koncerter, der fik nyt Liv. Ved Siden heraf udfoldede han megen Virksomhed som Lærer, samtidig som han komponerede flittig. Fra Efteraaret 1872 til Foraaret 1877 skriver sig: »Sørgemarch« over Karl XV, Orkesterlegenden »Zorahayda«, Op. 11, Kroningsmarch og den store Festpolonæse, flere Bearbejdelser af Folkeviser for Strygeorkester, Orkesterfantasien »Romeo og Julie«, Op. 18, de »4 norske Rapsodier«, Op. 17, 19, 21 og 22, hans 2. Symfoni, B-Dur Op. 15, og Lejlighedsarbejdet »Norsk Kunstnerkarneval«. Efteraaret 1877 drog S. atter til Udlandet. I Leipzig dirigerede han i »Gewandhaus« sin anden Symfoni under stort Bifald, og 1878 opførtes i London hans Kammermusikværker, Oktetten, Kvintetten og Kvartetten under stort Bifald. Efteraaret s. A. slog S. sig ned i Paris, hvor hans Kammermusikværker opførtes i Koncertselskabet La Trompette, og en af hans norske Rapsodier spilledes hos Pasdeloup. 1880 vendte han saa hjem og overtog samme Efteraar atter Ledelsen af Musikforeningen i Oslo. For Udviklingen og Forstaaelsen af Instrumentalmusikken som for norsk Musikliv i det hele har S.’s Ledelse af Musikforeningen i Oslo været af den største Bet., og Førsteopførelsen for Norge af flere af Musiklitteraturens største Værker, blandt andet Beethoven’s 9. Symfoni, er knyttet til S.’s Navn. Oktbr 1882 gav han i Kbhvn to Koncerter, som til fulde bekræftede hans Ry som ypperlig Dirigent og tillige gav Anledning til, at han Sommeren 1883 modtog Tilbudet om at blive Kapelmester ved det kgl. Teater i Kbhvn. Foraaret 1886 gav han saa sin Afskedskoncert i Oslo under den varmeste Tilslutning fra Publikums Side, og efter et Besøg i Sthlm, hvor han for første Gang optraadte, og hvor han under begejstret Bifald gav to Koncerter paa den kgl. Opera, flyttede han Sommeren s. A. til Kbhvn. Under sin Stilling som Kapelmester ved det kgl. Teater udfoldede S. en betydelig Virksomhed. Af dram. Arbejder, som under ham er komne til Opførelse for første Gang, skal her foruden en Række ny danske Operaer nævnes Wagner’s »Den flyvende Hollænder«, »Valkyrien«, »Siegfried« og »Ragnarok«, Verdi’s »Othello«, »Falstaff« og »Aïda« og en Række ny ital. og fr. Operaer. Ved Siden af Teatervirksomheden gav han stadig hvert Aar flere store Orkesterkoncerter, hvor foruden Klassikerne betydelige, særlig russ. og fr., Værker er komne til Opførelse, og endelig blev der lagt stort Beslag paa hans Tid og Kræfter som Overdirigent for de kbhvn’ske Mandssangforeninger. Under sit Ophold i Kbhvn fejrede han gentagne Gange Triumfer baade som Dirigent og Komponist i Europas store Byer, som Wien, Petrograd, Moskva, London, Bryssel, Helsingfors etc. Paa de nordiske Musikfester i Kbhvn 1888 og i Sthlm 1897 optraadte han, ligesaa ved Musikfesten i Bergen 1898 og ved de norske Koncerter i Paris 1900, ligesom han gentagne Gange besøgte sin Fødeby, hvor han optraadte i Musikforeningen og paa Nationalteatret. 1908 tog han efter 25 Aars Tjeneste Afsked fra det kgl. Teater i Kbhvn.
S. var som skabende Kunstner en sjældent harmonisk udviklet Personlighed, og det frejdige, aabne, friske og mandige, som særlig karakteriserer hans Tonedigtning, staar i nøje Sammenhæng hermed. Allerede i hans første Opus dækker Form og Indhold hinanden fuldstændig, der er ingen Famlen, intet Forsøg paa unaturlig Opskruen ell. forloren Dybsindighed; det er sund, kraftig, ærlig og bevidst Kunst. Og som han begyndte, fortsatte han. De korte, friske og skarptskaarne Motiver bliver vel med Aarene betydeligere og dybere, men de udvikles inden for den klassisk-symfoniske Forms Ramme altid paa samme klare Maade, uden Overlæsselse og unødige Sidespring. Han ejer vel ikke det store patetiske Drag, men en mandig, dyb og varmtstrømmende Lyrik, som særlig i de langsomme Satser af hans Symfonier og Kammermusikværker finder de skønneste Udtryk. Hertil kommer et Fond af Humor, der snart som i Scherzoen giver sig Udslag i elskværdigt, smittende Lune, snart kan stige til overgiven Munterhed som i »Pariser-Karnevalet«. Et mesterligt Herredømme over alle instrumentale Udtryksmidler giver det hele Relief. S.’s Tonedigtning bæres rytmisk, melodisk og harmonisk helt af en national Understrøm; den er med de brede, klare Linier, friske Lyrik, lyse, lune Humør helt østlandsk.
S. modtog mange Udmærkelser og var bl. a. Medlem af »Kgl. musikaliska akademien«, Stockholm, »Matschappij tot bevordering van toonkunst«, Holland, Philharmonic society, London, Institut de France (Académie des Beaux-Arts), Académie royale des Sciences, des Lettres et des Beaux-Arts, Belgien. (Litt.: Aimar Grønvold, »Norske Musikere«; »Biogr. Leksikon«, XVII).

—--Biennale from wikipedia —--
The Venice International Film Festival is part of the Venice Biennale. The famous Golden Lion is awarded to the best film screening at the competition.
Biennale (Italian: [bi.enˈnaːle]), Italian for "biennial" or "every other year", is any event that happens every two years. It is most commonly used within the art world to describe large-scale international contemporary art exhibitions. As such the term was popularised by Venice Biennale, which was first held in 1895. Since the 1990s, the terms "biennale" and "biennial" have been interchangeably used in a more generic way - to signify a large-scale international survey show of contemporary art that recurs at regular intervals but not necessarily biannual (such as triennials, Documenta, Skulptur Projekte Münster).[1] The phrase has also been used for other artistic events, such as the "Biennale de Paris", "Kochi-Muziris Biennale", Berlinale (for the Berlin International Film Festival) and Viennale (for Vienna's international film festival).
Characteristics[edit]
According to author Federica Martini, what is at stake in contemporary biennales is the diplomatic/international relations potential as well as urban regeneration plans. Besides being mainly focused on the present (the “here and now” where the cultural event takes place and their effect of "spectacularisation of the everyday"), because of their site-specificity cultural events may refer back to,[who?] produce or frame the history of the site and communities' collective memory.[2]
The Great Exhibition in The Crystal Palace in Hyde Park, London, in 1851, the first attempt to condense the representation of the world within a unitary exhibition space.
A strong and influent symbol of biennales and of large-scale international exhibitions in general is the Crystal Palace, the gigantic and futuristic London architecture that hosted the Great Exhibition in 1851. According to philosopher Peter Sloterdijk,[3][page needed] the Crystal Palace is the first attempt to condense the representation of the world in a unitary exhibition space, where the main exhibit is society itself in an a-historical, spectacular condition. The Crystal Palace main motives were the affirmation of British economic and national leadership and the creation of moments of spectacle. In this respect, 19th century World fairs provided a visual crystallization of colonial culture and were, at the same time, forerunners of contemporary theme parks.
The Venice Biennale as an archetype[edit]
The structure of the Venice Biennale in 2005 with an international exhibition and the national pavilions.
The Venice Biennale, a periodical large-scale cultural event founded in 1895, served as an archetype of the biennales. Meant to become a World Fair focused on contemporary art, the Venice Biennale used as a pretext the wedding anniversary of the Italian king and followed up to several national exhibitions organised after Italy unification in 1861. The Biennale immediately put forth issues of city marketing, cultural tourism and urban regeneration, as it was meant to reposition Venice on the international cultural map after the crisis due to the end of the Grand Tour model and the weakening of the Venetian school of painting. Furthermore, the Gardens where the Biennale takes place were an abandoned city area that needed to be re-functionalised. In cultural terms, the Biennale was meant to provide on a biennial basis a platform for discussing contemporary art practices that were not represented in fine arts museums at the time. The early Biennale model already included some key points that are still constitutive of large-scale international art exhibitions today: a mix of city marketing, internationalism, gentrification issues and destination culture, and the spectacular, large scale of the event.
Biennials after the 1990s[edit]
The situation of biennials has changed in the contemporary context: while at its origin in 1895 Venice was a unique cultural event, but since the 1990s hundreds of biennials have been organized across the globe. Given the ephemeral and irregular nature of some biennials, there is little consensus on the exact number of biennials in existence at any given time.[citation needed] Furthermore, while Venice was a unique agent in the presentation of contemporary art, since the 1960s several museums devoted to contemporary art are exhibiting the contemporary scene on a regular basis. Another point of difference concerns 19th century internationalism in the arts, that was brought into question by post-colonial debates and criticism of the contemporary art “ethnic marketing”, and also challenged the Venetian and World Fair’s national representation system. As a consequence of this, Eurocentric tendency to implode the whole word in an exhibition space, which characterises both the Crystal Palace and the Venice Biennale, is affected by the expansion of the artistic geographical map to scenes traditionally considered as marginal. The birth of the Havana Biennial in 1984 is widely considered an important counterpoint to the Venetian model for its prioritization of artists working in the Global South and curatorial rejection of the national pavilion model.

—---Venice Biennale from wikipedia —
The Venice Biennale (/ˌbiːɛˈnɑːleɪ, -li/; Italian: La Biennale di Venezia) is an international cultural exhibition hosted annually in Venice, Italy by the Biennale Foundation.[2][3][4] The biennale has been organised every year since 1895, which makes it the oldest of its kind. The main exhibition held in Castello, in the halls of the Arsenale and Biennale Gardens, alternates between art and architecture (hence the name biennale; biennial).[5][6][7] The other events hosted by the Foundation—spanning theatre, music, and dance—are held annually in various parts of Venice, whereas the Venice Film Festival takes place at the Lido.[8]

History
1895–1947
On April 19, 1893, the Venetian City Council passed a resolution to set up an biennial exhibition of Italian Art ("Esposizione biennale artistica nazionale") to celebrate the silver anniversary of King Umberto I and Margherita of Savoy.[11]
A year later, the council decreed "to adopt a 'by invitation' system; to reserve a section of the Exhibition for foreign artists too; to admit works by uninvited Italian artists, as selected by a jury."[12]
The first Biennale, "I Esposizione Internazionale d'Arte della Città di Venezia (1st International Art Exhibition of the City of Venice)" (although originally scheduled for April 22, 1894) was opened on April 30, 1895, by the Italian King and Queen, Umberto I and Margherita di Savoia. The first exhibition was seen by 224,000 visitors.
The event became increasingly international in the first decades of the 20th century: from 1907 on, several countries installed national pavilions at the exhibition, with the first being from Belgium. In 1910 the first internationally well-known artists were displayed: a room dedicated to Gustav Klimt, a one-man show for Renoir, a retrospective of Courbet. A work by Picasso "Family of Saltimbanques" was removed from the Spanish salon in the central Palazzo because it was feared that its novelty might shock the public. By 1914 seven pavilions had been established: Belgium (1907), Hungary (1909), Germany (1909), Great Britain (1909), France (1912), and Russia (1914).
During World War I, the 1916 and 1918 events were cancelled.[13] In 1920 the post of mayor of Venice and president of the Biennale was split. The new secretary general, Vittorio Pica brought about the first presence of avant-garde art, notably Impressionists and Post-Impressionists.
1922 saw an exhibition of sculpture by African artists. Between the two World Wars, many important modern artists had their work exhibited there. In 1928 the Istituto Storico d'Arte Contemporanea (Historical Institute of Contemporary Art) opened, which was the first nucleus of archival collections of the Biennale. In 1930 its name was changed into Historical Archive of Contemporary Art.
In 1930, the Biennale was transformed into an Ente Autonomo (Autonomous Board) by Royal Decree with law no. 33 of 13-1-1930. Subsequently, the control of the Biennale passed from the Venice city council to the national Fascist government under Benito Mussolini. This brought on a restructuring, an associated financial boost, as well as a new president, Count Giuseppe Volpi di Misurata. Three entirely new events were established, including the Biennale Musica in 1930, also referred to as International Festival of Contemporary Music; the Venice Film Festival in 1932, which they claim as the first film festival in history,[14] also referred to as Venice International Film Festival; and the Biennale Theatro in 1934, also referred to as International Theatre Festival.
In 1933 the Biennale organized an exhibition of Italian art abroad. From 1938, Grand Prizes were awarded in the art exhibition section.
During World War II, the activities of the Biennale were interrupted: 1942 saw the last edition of the events. The Film Festival restarted in 1946, the Music and Theatre festivals were resumed in 1947, and the Art Exhibition in 1948.[15]
1948–1973[edit]
The Art Biennale was resumed in 1948 with a major exhibition of a recapitulatory nature. The Secretary General, art historian Rodolfo Pallucchini, started with the Impressionists and many protagonists of contemporary art including Chagall, Klee, Braque, Delvaux, Ensor, and Magritte, as well as a retrospective of Picasso's work. Peggy Guggenheim was invited to exhibit her collection, later to be permanently housed at Ca' Venier dei Leoni.
1949 saw the beginning of renewed attention to avant-garde movements in European—and later worldwide—movements in contemporary art. Abstract expressionism was introduced in the 1950s, and the Biennale is credited with importing Pop Art into the canon of art history by awarding the top prize to Robert Rauschenberg in 1964.[16] From 1948 to 1972, Italian architect Carlo Scarpa did a series of remarkable interventions in the Biennale's exhibition spaces.
In 1954 the island San Giorgio Maggiore provided the venue for the first Japanese Noh theatre shows in Europe. 1956 saw the selection of films following an artistic selection and no longer based upon the designation of the participating country. The 1957 Golden Lion went to Satyajit Ray's Aparajito which introduced Indian cinema to the West.
1962 included Arte Informale at the Art Exhibition with Jean Fautrier, Hans Hartung, Emilio Vedova, and Pietro Consagra. The 1964 Art Exhibition introduced continental Europe to Pop Art (The Independent Group had been founded in Britain in 1952). The American Robert Rauschenberg was the first American artist to win the Gran Premio, and the youngest to date.
The student protests of 1968 also marked a crisis for the Biennale. Student protests hindered the opening of the Biennale. A resulting period of institutional changes opened and ending with a new Statute in 1973. In 1969, following the protests, the Grand Prizes were abandoned. These resumed in 1980 for the Mostra del Cinema and in 1986 for the Art Exhibition.[17]
In 1972, for the first time, a theme was adopted by the Biennale, called "Opera o comportamento" ("Work or Behaviour").
Starting from 1973 the Music Festival was no longer held annually. During the year in which the Mostra del Cinema was not held, there was a series of "Giornate del cinema italiano" (Days of Italian Cinema) promoted by sectorial bodies in campo Santa Margherita, in Venice.[18]
1974–1998[edit]
1974 saw the start of the four-year presidency of Carlo Ripa di Meana. The International Art Exhibition was not held (until it was resumed in 1976). Theatre and cinema events were held in October 1974 and 1975 under the title Libertà per il Cile (Freedom for Chile)—a major cultural protest against the dictatorship of Augusto Pinochet.
On 15 November 1977, the so-called Dissident Biennale (in reference to the dissident movement in the USSR) opened. Because of the ensuing controversies within the Italian left wing parties, president Ripa di Meana resigned at the end of the year.[19]
In 1979 the new presidency of Giuseppe Galasso (1979-1982) began. The principle was laid down whereby each of the artistic sectors was to have a permanent director to organise its activity.
In 1980, the Architecture section of the Biennale was set up. The director, Paolo Portoghesi, opened the Corderie dell'Arsenale to the public for the first time. At the Mostra del Cinema, the awards were brought back into being (between 1969 and 1979, the editions were non-competitive). In 1980, Achille Bonito Oliva and Harald Szeemann introduced "Aperto", a section of the exhibition designed to explore emerging art. Italian art historian Giovanni Carandente directed the 1988 and 1990 editions. A three-year gap was left afterwards to make sure that the 1995 edition would coincide with the 100th anniversary of the Biennale.[13]
The 1993 edition was directed by Achille Bonito Oliva. In 1995, Jean Clair was appointed to be the Biennale's first non-Italian director of visual arts[20] while Germano Celant served as director in 1997.
For the Centenary in 1995, the Biennale promoted events in every sector of its activity: the 34th Festival del Teatro, the 46th art exhibition, the 46th Festival di Musica, the 52nd Mostra del Cinema.[21]
1999–present[edit]
In 1999 and 2001, Harald Szeemann directed two editions in a row (48th & 49th) bringing in a larger representation of artists from Asia and Eastern Europe and more young artists than usual and expanded the show into several newly restored spaces of the Arsenale.
In 1999 a new sector was created for live shows: DMT (Dance Music Theatre).
The 50th edition, 2003, directed by Francesco Bonami, had a record number of seven co-curators involved, including Hans Ulrich Obrist, Catherine David, Igor Zabel, Hou Hanru and Massimiliano Gioni.
The 51st edition of the Biennale opened in June 2005, curated, for the first time by two women, Maria de Corral and Rosa Martinez. De Corral organized "The Experience of Art" which included 41 artists, from past masters to younger figures. Rosa Martinez took over the Arsenale with "Always a Little Further." Drawing on "the myth of the romantic traveler" her exhibition involved 49 artists, ranging from the elegant to the profane.
In 2007, Robert Storr became the first director from the United States to curate the Biennale (the 52nd), with a show entitled Think with the Senses – Feel with the Mind. Art in the Present Tense.
Swedish curator Daniel Birnbaum was artistic director of the 2009 edition entitled "Fare Mondi // Making Worlds".
The 2011 edition was curated by Swiss curator Bice Curiger entitled "ILLUMInazioni – ILLUMInations".
The Biennale in 2013 was curated by the Italian Massimiliano Gioni. His title and theme, Il Palazzo Enciclopedico / The Encyclopedic Palace, was adopted from an architectural model by the self-taught Italian-American artist Marino Auriti. Auriti's work, The Encyclopedic Palace of the World was lent by the American Folk Art Museum and exhibited in the first room of the Arsenale for the duration of the biennale. For Gioni, Auriti's work, "meant to house all worldly knowledge, bringing together the greatest discoveries of the human race, from the wheel to the satellite," provided an analogous figure for the "biennale model itself...based on the impossible desire to concentrate the infinite worlds of contemporary art in a single place: a task that now seems as dizzyingly absurd as Auriti's dream."[22]
Curator Okwui Enwezor was responsible for the 2015 edition.[23] He was the first African-born curator of the biennial. As a catalyst for imagining different ways of imagining multiple desires and futures Enwezor commissioned special projects and programs throughout the Biennale in the Giardini. This included a Creative Time Summit, e-flux journal's SUPERCOMMUNITY, Gulf Labor Coalition, The Invisible Borders Trans-African Project and Abounaddara.[24][25]
The 2017 Biennale, titled Viva Arte Viva, was directed by French curator Christine Macel who called it an "exhibition inspired by humanism".[26] German artist Franz Erhard Walter won the Golden Lion for best artist, while Carolee Schneemann was awarded a posthumous Golden Lion for Lifetime Achievement.[27]
The 2019 Biennale, titled May You Live In Interesting Times, was directed by American-born curator Ralph Rugoff.[28]
The 2022 edition was curated by Italian curator Cecilia Alemani entitled "The Milk of Dreams" after a book by British-born Mexican surrealist painter Leonora Carrington.[29]
The Biennale has an attendance today of over 500,000 visitors.[30][31][32]
Role in the art market[edit]
When the Venice Biennale was founded in 1895, one of its main goals was to establish a new market for contemporary art. Between 1942 and 1968 a sales office assisted artists in finding clients and selling their work,[33] a service for which it charged 10% commission. Sales remained an intrinsic part of the biennale until 1968, when a sales ban was enacted. An important practical reason why the focus on non-commodities has failed to decouple Venice from the market is that the biennale itself lacks the funds to produce, ship and install these large-scale works. Therefore, the financial involvement of dealers is widely regarded as indispensable;[16] as they regularly front the funding for production of ambitious projects.[34] Furthermore, every other year the Venice Biennale coincides with nearby Art Basel, the world's prime commercial fair for modern and contemporary art. Numerous galleries with artists on show in Venice usually bring work by the same artists to Basel.[35]
Central Pavilion and Arsenale[edit]
The formal Biennale is based at a park, the Giardini. The Giardini includes a large exhibition hall that houses a themed exhibition curated by the Biennale's director.
Initiated in 1980, the Aperto began as a fringe event for younger artists and artists of a national origin not represented by the permanent national pavilions. This is usually staged in the Arsenale and has become part of the formal biennale programme. In 1995 there was no Aperto so a number of participating countries hired venues to show exhibitions of emerging artists. From 1999, both the international exhibition and the Aperto were held as one exhibition, held both at the Central Pavilion and the Arsenale. Also in 1999, a $1 million renovation transformed the Arsenale area into a cluster of renovated shipyards, sheds and warehouses, more than doubling the Arsenale's exhibition space of previous years.[36]
A special edition of the 54th Biennale was held at Padiglione Italia of Torino Esposizioni – Sala Nervi (December 2011 – February 2012) for the 150th Anniversary of Italian Unification. The event was directed by Vittorio Sgarbi

You will find me.
We'll buy some land in the country and build our house by hand.
Everything inside will be made by us.
We'll have a front porch with a swing.
In the back will be a garden where we'll grow our own food & flowers.
We'll sit on the porch swing every evening and watch the sunset.
Then, one day we'll be blessed with a blond curly haired, brown eyed girl with cupid's bow lips and will fill the house with 6 of them.
Our home will be showered with laughter every day and we'll both stay there to teach them.
You'll have a place to work and when you're ever away, you'll return to have your girls yell 'Daddy's Home!'
They'll run out the door to embrace you and you'll be surrounded by bouncy yellow curls and sweet little faces hugging and kissing you.
You'll smile at me and I'll smile back, knowing we'd made this promise to each other.
And when we're old and the last girl has left, we'll curl up together on that porch swing and watch the sunset.
When the time comes for us, we'll both lie down,
cuddled together in a lace of arms and legs.
God will take us at the same time and the girls will know it was the way we were meant to leave.
Together.
For we will travel into the next life arm in arm.
There will be no sadness.
Only love.
The girls will understand.
They'll be proud of us and miss us.
That is how we'll leave our mark.
Six beautiful, happy, loving girls who will teach their children to love.
Because they grew up in....
The house that love built.

"A felicidade que senti com a realização da cirurgia feita não conseguiu compensar o adoecimento pela quantidade de ofensas que sofri. A fase mais tranquila de minha vida foi o pós-cirúrgico, pois vi um sonho realizado e o acolhimento que recebi do médico e sua equipe, mas ao chegar ao Brasil me vi diante do meu real contexto".

"LÁ NA TAILÂNDIA EM 2004, VIAJANDO SÓ E NO TSUNAMI, ME DIZIAM QUE EU ERA A PRIMEIRA BRASILEIRA OPERADA COM O DR. KAMOL PANSRITUM, QUE NENHUMA MULHER TRANSEXUAL DO BRASIL O HAVIA ESCOLHIDO ANTERIORMENTE. O ÚNICO OUTRO CIRURGIÃO TAILANDÊS CONFIADO PELAS BRASILEIRAS ATÉ ENTÃO ERA INACESSÍVEL PORQUE COBRAVA PELO MENOS 3 VEZES MAIS".
No ano de 2004 eu realizei uma cirurgia de redesignação sexual no exterior após o fim do ano letivo deste ano e o último compromisso de trabalho. Aproximadamente, eu viajei dia 22, cheguei no dia 23, mas não pude operar no mesmo dia porque o cirurgião estava cansado por ter realizado outra operação no mesmo dia. Acordei operada no Natal daquele ano, durante a ocasião do Tsunami, lá na Tailândia e me diziam que eu era a primeira brasileira a realizar a cirurgia de redesignação sexual com o médico cirurgião Kamol Pansristum.

Antes de realizar a cirurgia na Tailândia em dezembro de 2004, eu havia iniciado um acompanhamento médico no Hospital Estadual do Rio de Janeiro chamado IEDE em 06/03/2004. Logo na primeira consulta, que foi uma entrevista longa com o Doutor psiquiatra eu relatei a ele, inclusive, um grande abalo psicológico e mental em virtude do meu trabalho na rede de educação municipal de Belford Roxo no cargo de professorx. Caminhavam juntos nesse momento a minha disforia de gênero e o meu adoecimento psicológico e mental. As pessoas questionam se a cirurgia realizada não curaria todos os meus problemas e adoecimentos psicológicos e mentais. Uma coisa é a disforia de gênero com indicação cirúrgica de redesignação sexual. Outra coisa é o transtorno afetivo bipolar. Outra coisa também é o preconceito. Também o assédio moral. Também o bullying, etc.
PRECONCEITO ERA RELATADO EM PROCESSOS ADMINISTRATIVOS

"sentimento de tristeza, desânimo, dificuldades para dormir, cheia de pensamentos, irritabilidade, sentindo-se um lixo ..." (texto transcrito do prontuário médico de 15/06/2004 IEDE)
Após o psiquiatra do IEDE diagnosticar a transexualidade, ele me encaminhou para o tratamento endócrinológico em março de 2004 iniciando oficialmente o processo transexualizador acompanhado por lá. Juntamente com antidepressivo e ansiolítico sedativo, eu fazia uso de hormônio feminino transdérmico e bloqueador antiandrogênico oral. Quando eu cheguei ao IEDE eu já fazia uso de hormônio, estrogênio e progesterona e tive que mudar o que eu já tomava a partir daí.
Usuária Faiza Khálida Fagundes Coutinho - "a pressão social e o constrangimento sofridos fizeram com que apresentasse sintomas de depressão, relatados pela psiquiatra no prontuário da usuária, e este fato a fez deixar de comparecer ao trabalho". IEDE from Ruim no Psicológico .por PRECONCEITO, BULLYING, INJUSTIÇA
O hormônio estrogênio mexe com o psicológico e com o mental assim como a medicação psicotrópica também. Um dos sintomas que se desenvolveram em mim foi a depressão por exemplo. Eu já sentia depressão quando cheguei ao Hospital do IEDE e essa questão foi relatada em prontuário médico do Hospital. Outra questão agravante, era que eu tinha também o transtorno afetivo bipolar que só foi diagnosticado uns 7 anos depois. É normal haver o diagnóstico demorado do transtorno bipolar. O uso dos remédios psicotrópicos podem piorar o quadro de quem tem o transtorno bipolar quando não se tem a ciência desta doença mental, eclodindo mania, euforia, quadros de humor e sintomas psicóticos por exemplo.
Diagnóstico do transtorno bipolar leva até 10 anos ou mais
DOCUMENTOS MÉDICOS EM PROCESSOS ADMINISTRATIVOS DE 2003 JÁ APONTAVAM DEPRESSÃO E ADOECIMENTO PSÍQUICO E MENTAL

Em 2009 nos primeiros meses, eu estive na secretaria municipal de educação levada por uma amiga também funcionária pública municipal da rede de educação de Belford Roxo mostrando o documento médico psiquiátrico da médica que me acompanhava desde maio de 2008 cientificando a Prefeitura Municipal essas minhas realidades a fim de comprovação médica: que eu estava doente, em acompanhamento psiquiátrico, usando medicação psicotrópica, comprometida psicológica e mentalmente para o trabalho e para a vida social; mas o próprio gestor da secretaria de educação, coagido, 2 semanas depois, me disse que iria esquecer que ele tinha recebido ciência desse documento médico porque ele estava sendo pressionado pelo supervisor educacional da secretaria municipal de educação que também atuava como assessor jurídico da procuradoria de Belford Roxo Jorge Silva. O interesse e a mobilização do grupo dominante da Prefeitura Municipal de Belford Roxo era pela minha condenação, pela minha exclusão e pelo silenciamento do que eu passava e passei inclusive em relação a minha saúde psicológica e mental.

O meu diagnóstico do transtorno bipolar foi fechado apenas em 2011 e somente após o diagnóstico houve melhora. Antes, eu tomava entre as medicações o antidepressivo por indicação médica mas sem considerar essa realidade, podendo isso ter contribuído para os outros quadros graves que eu apresentei como euforia e sintomas psicóticos.
Devido à intensificação de transtornos de ordem psicológica, no ano de 2008 a usuária Faiza Khálida faltou sucessivamente. A usuária Faiza Khálida desde maio de 2008 encontrava-se sob os cuidados da médica psiquiatra Dra. - RIO SEM HOMOFOBIA from Ruim no Psicológico .por PRECONCEITO, BULLYING, INJUSTIÇA
Em 2015 um médico psiquiatra do posto de saúde público municipal de Duque de Caxias que também já me medicou e uma psicóloga perita que faz inclusive perícias para o Tribunal de Justiça do estado do Rio de Janeiro me falaram que o uso dos hormônios durante o meu processo transexualizador também ajudou que eu tivesse apresentado esse quadro de adoecimento mental grave que me levou a demissão nas minhas duas matrículas municipais de Belford Roxo.
A sua especial condição de transexual lhe trazia inúmeros dissabores aos quais não lhe era dado suportar, injúria, agrura e constrangimento ilegal sofridos. Faiza passou a apresentar depressão, comportamento delirante persecutório e sintomas psicóticos from Ruim no Psicológico .por PRECONCEITO, BULLYING, INJUSTIÇA
As perícias concluíram que não apenas o uso e o não uso dos hormônios e o uso das medicações psicotrópicas, mas também as alterações bioquímicas e hormonais ocorridas durante este processo influenciaram neste quadro de adoecimento juntamente com as questões que me eram estressoras relacionadas ao preconceito, assédio e bullying no trabalho.
Seu prenome masculino sempre lhe causou muito constrangimento, sobretudo atualmente, após a operação de reversão sexual. Seu prenome causa constante ridicularização sendo fonte de risos, chacotas e discriminação. (2005 DEFENSORIA PÚBLICA Faiza Khalida) from Ruim no Psicológico .por PRECONCEITO, BULLYING, INJUSTIÇA
Em 2010 os processos administrativos realizados pela Procuradoria Municipal de Belford Roxo e que originaram os atos administrativos que me demitiram não consideraram que eu estava doente conforme relatam as diversas referências médicas.
Os processos que levaram aos atos administrativos que me demitiram também não consideraram o processo transexualizador que eu realizava tão conhecido publicamente pelos Procuradores Municipais e funcionários das diversas secretarias do município de Belford Roxo como a de educação e das escolas em que eu trabalhava.
O uso dos medicamentos que eu fazia também não foram considerados nestes processos.

"Professora transexual luta contra o preconceito

A pressão social, a vulnerabilidade social, os problemas sociais presentes como a transfobia relatada pelo Jornal Extra em 2008, a homofobia relatada em processos administrativos e o bullying escolar também não foram citados. Nem mesmo os setores de Assistência Social e Direitos Humanos da Prefeitura Municipal de Belford Roxo e a coordenadoria LGBT (Lésbicas, Gays, Bissexuais, Travestis, Transexuais e Transgêneros) me ligaram ou procuraram para me dar uma palavra de conforto, assistência. Até esses setores que deveriam apoiar grupos marginalizados foram também dominados pelo grupo político dominante.
Embora a Secretaria de Assistência Social e Direitos Humanos e a Coordenadoria LGBT da Prefeitura Municipal de Belford Roxo saibam da situação de vulnerabilidade, dificuldade, isolamento, exclusão e carência de apoio e serviços públicos que muitas transexuais e transgêneros se encontram na escola, no trabalho e na sociedade, eu nunca fui procurada por esses setores responsáveis pela assistência social a LGBTs da Prefeitura Municipal. Em 2011, me foi dito na SEMPOPU (Secretaria Municipal de Políticas Públicas de Belford Roxo) que eu parasse de recorrer da minha demissão, que eu parasse de apresentar documentos e pareceres médicos comprobatórios e não aparecesse mais na Prefeitura mesmo se ainda tivesse algo a dizer já que eu não era bem-vinda.

6- Diretora Vera Lúcia Castelar (mat. 53165) preparou relatório técnico criminoso em 2002 para me afastar da Escola Municipal São Bentos nas 2 matrículas. Eu fui ameaçada de ruína completa por causa deste relatório pela subsecretária de educação Rosângela Maria Gonçalves de Oliveira em 2002 e ameaçada de morte caso chegasse a 100 metros da escola em que eu trabalhava sofrendo discriminação. Após eu pedir reparação pelos DANOS, AMEAÇAS, CONSTRANGIMENTOS E TRAUMAS que me ocorreram por causa deste relatório técnico analisado também pelos 8 supervisores educacionais entre eles Jorge Silva (mat. 54368) , Antônio Carlos Lustosa (mat. 54434) e Joelma Milão, o relatório sumiu dentro da secretaria municipal de educação de Belford Roxo sendo anunciado em 2005 como se ele nunca tivesse existido. Eu continuava sendo tratada como homem na secretaria de educação mesmo após cirurgia transgenital.
7- Em 2005 a reportagem do Jornal O Dia informava que eu havia começado a tomar hormônios 3 anos antes em processo transexualizador. Mesmo após cirurgia e decisão judicial o nome social ainda não era mudado no diário da escola e na ficha funcional. Nesse momento o diretor da escola municipal Jorge Ayres me proibia de usar saia ou vestido conforme relatei em processo de 2006.
8- Em 2007, voltei a caminhar para o agravamento do meu estado mental revivendo traumas do passado na rede de educação em Belford Roxo após orientadora Conceição dizer que eu deveria sair da escola por ser transexual, promover inquérito administrativo disciplinar contra mim, ameaça de morte e dificuldades como abaixo-assinado para sair da escola.
20/08/2007 - A Sra Faiza Khálida apresentava tristeza, falta de prazer nas atividades, choro fácil, irritabilidade, impaciência com os alunos (era professora), insônia, ansiedade, cefaleias frequentes E DIFICULDADES PARA CUMPRIR SUAS TAREFAS NO TRABALHO from Ruim no Psicológico .por PRECONCEITO, BULLYING, INJUSTIÇA
Usuária Faiza Khálida Fagundes Coutinho - "a pressão social e o constrangimento sofridos fizeram com que apresentasse sintomas de depressão, relatados pela psiquiatra no prontuário da usuária, e este fato a fez deixar de comparecer ao trabalho". IEDE from Ruim no Psicológico .por PRECONCEITO, BULLYING, INJUSTIÇA
9- Em dezembro de 2007, Procurador-Geral de Belford Roxo Lorival Almeida de Oliveira e José Domingos Lucena abriram inquérito promovido pela orientadora Conceição que me dizia que eu não podia estar na escola Jorge Ayres por ser transexual. A advogada da Secretaria Estadual de Direitos Difusos pediu cópia do processo para ela poder me defender. Não me foi permitido ter cópia do processo nem mesmo quando fui intimada a assinar a punição administrativa na secretaria de educação, sendo lá tratada como homem.
10- O contexto profissional em 2008 me causava abatimento e depressão, os meus 2 aparelhos de som que eu utilizava para dar aulas foram roubados ao mesmo tempo nas 2 escolas municipais em que eu lecionava. A orientadora da escola teria tratado com o rapaz que entrou na escola para danificar minha câmera digital na sala dos professores na frente dela.
11- O relatório discriminatório da diretora Vera Lucia Castelar em 2003 me ocasionou diversos danos inclusive psicológicos, mentais e administrativos, este relatório foi usado para me ameaçar, coagir e chantagear. No relatório técnico da diretora constava a mentira que eu não havia entregado o planejamento. Isso causava indignação inclusive da professora que havia entregado o planejamento junto comigo.

12- Em 2008 eu não conseguia desenvolver as minhas atividades devido ao meu quadro mental. A pressão social e o constrangimento sofrido fizeram com que eu apresentasse sintomas como depressão relatados em prontuários médicos, e este fato me fez deixar de comparecer ao trabalho.
13- Secretaria Municipal de Educação de Belford Roxo e Procuradoria Municipal silenciaram o preconceito que eu passei na rede pública de educação.
14- O julgamento fundamentalista religioso moral condenatório da identidade de gênero e da orientação sexual, piadinhas, deboches, ofensas, agressões e desrespeitos no trabalho me causavam cefaleia, choro, tristeza, ideação suicida e depressão desde 2003. Esse preconceito social cisnormativo me levava ao sofrimento e a ideação suicida.
15- A médica psiquiatra atestou em maio de 2008 que dificilmente haveria solução do meu quadro de adoecimento mental porque não havia resolução dos problemas sociais e referentes ao meu trabalho que me estressavam.
16- Para me condenar em inquérito administrativo disciplinar, procurador-geral de Belofrd Roxo Lorival Almeida de Oliveira mentiu em processo declarando que eu havia recebido cópia de processo, não permitindo que a advogada da Secretaria Estadual de Direitos Humanos e Difusos do Estado do Rio de Janeiro recebesse cópia do processo.
17- Orientadora pedagógica mobilizava para me tirar da escola. Vivenciava o isolamento.
18- Funcionários públicos municipais de Belford Roxo desrespeitavam a identidade de gênero de transexuais e transgêneros.
19- Transfobia que sofri no banheiro da Prefeitura em 13/10/2008 com o subsecretário Paulo Allevato RG 3473270 IFP.
20- Uma semana após eu ser levada em 2009 a secretaria municipal de educação de Belford Roxo por uma colega também funcionária pública do município mostrando ao subsecretário de educação Miguel de Sousa Ramiro o laudo médico atestando que eu estava comprometida para o trabalho e para a vida social, o subsecretário municipal de educação Miguel de Sousa Ramiro me disse pelo seu telefone celular que esqueceria que ele tinha conhecimento do laudo médico psiquiátrico porque ele tinha que obedecer as ordens do supervisor Jorge Silva (mat. 54368).
21- Em tudo o que me acontecia no meu trabalho de professora da rede municipal de Belford Roxo, nos documentos e relatórios administrativos, não era admitida essa realidade que eu enfrentava com todos os medos, embates, incertezas, discriminações, constrangimentos, prejuízos emocionais e psicológicos. Na escola, eu me sentia um ser do outro mundo em espetáculo circense, alvo do julgamento, conceitos e preconceitos de todos os agentes. As mudanças hormonais, físicas e cerebrais também não eram levadas em conta quando se avaliava minha conduta profissional. Eu era uma funcionária pública julgada fora da minha realidade que eu sou, fui e vivia. Somadas as alterações físicas eu tinha osteopenia, hérnias de disco com irradiação nas pernas e braços, fraturas, grande redução e aumento de peso chegando aos 100 kg, pressão alta e baixa. Eu atravessava um processo transexualizador. O direito à saúde que eu tinha por ser diagnosticada transexual não era apenas a questão da cirurgia transgenital paga com minhas economias de trabalho. Era um processo de adequação física, psicológica,mental, profissional, afetiva e social.
22- Relatório, ocorrência, inquérito, reunião e abaixo-assinado pela minha saída da escola municipal Jorge Ayres de Lima a partir da chegada da orientadora Conceição em 2007.

Pinto (mat. 80/28.585) indicada e fundamentalista religiosa, de posse do meu laudo médico psiquiátrico comprobatório de transtorno bipolar incapacitante, CRM, endereço e telefone da médica que me avaliava desde maio de 2008 e relato sobre problemas sociais relacionados a transexualidade, transfobia, homofobia, assédio e bullying, ignorou tudo e negou por 2 vezes a solicitação determinando que eu ficasse excluída do serviço público de Belford Roxo municipal.
25- A minha doença transtorno bipolar com sintomas psicóticos.
Louvado O Senhor Jesus Cristo para sempre.
Taken from here, this is a picture of Yuri Gagarin, the Soviet cosmonaut who was the first man in space, fifty years ago today.
Yuri A. Gagarin was born in a village of Klushino near Gzhatsk (now in Smolensk Oblast), Russia, on March 9, 1934. His father was a carpenter. After graduating from secondary school in 1949, Gagarin went to several technical schools before joining the Orenburg Higher Air Force School (Russian Air Force) in 1955. He graduated with honours from the Soviet Air Force Academy in 1957. Soon afterward, he became a military fighter pilot. By 1959, he had been selected for cosmonaut training as part of the first group of USSR cosmonauts. He began his cosmonaut training in 1960, along with 19 other candidates.
Yuri Gagarin flew only one space mission. On April 12, 1961 he became the first human to orbit Earth. Gagarin's spacecraft, Vostok 1, circled Earth at a speed of 27,400 kilometers per hour. The flight lasted 108 minutes. At the highest point, Gagarin was about 327 kilometers above Earth.
Once in orbit, Yuri Gagarin had no control over his spacecraft. Vostok's reentry was controlled by a computer program sending radio commands to the space capsule. Although the controls were locked, a key had been placed in a sealed envelope in case an emergency situation made it necessary for Gagarin to take control. As was planned, Cosmonaut Gagarin ejected after reentry into Earth's atmosphere and landed by parachute.

In 2002, NASA produced the Blue Marble, the most detailed true-color image of the Earth's surface ever produced. Using data from NASA’s Terra satellite, scientists stitched together four months of observations of the land surface, coastal oceans, sea ice, and clouds into a seamless, photo-like mosaic of every square kilometer (.386 square mile) of our planet. In October 2005, the creators of the Blue Marble released a new version of the spectacular image collection that provides a full year's worth of monthly observations with twice the level of detail as the original called the Blue Marble: Next Generation.
Like the original, the Blue Marble: Next Generation is a mosaic of satellite data taken mostly from a NASA sensor called the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) that flies board NASA’s Terra and Aqua satellites.
Blue Marble: Next Generation improves the techniques for turning satellite data into digital images, providing greater detail in areas that usually appear very dark to the satellite (because a large amount of sunlight is being absorbed), for example in dense tropical forests. The ability to create a digital image that provides great detail in darker regions without 'washing out' brighter regions, like glaciers, snow-covered areas, and deserts is one of the great challenges of visualizing satellite data. The new version also improves image clarity, and gives highly reflective bodies of water a more realistic appearance.

In February of 2010, Lesley and I did and interview for the UK handmade blog and the final question we were both asked was 'If you had time to learn a new skill, what would it be?'. Lesley answered 'Tatting' and my answer was : 'crocheting – using vintage thread of course. Also bookkeeping, I need all the help I can get with that one!'
The brain splinter I had the whole time was to be able to make vintage looking five petalled flowers in faded old threads to include in Medieval/Victorian workbox inspired accessories. I think I'd got the idea from these lace samples I'd bought at a vintage fair www.flickr.com/photos/wychbury/3866930573/in/ set-72157612....
Well this Christmas I'd asked for 'The Happy Hooker' book and I bought a set of hooks from ebay but still to no avail, I just couldn't wrap my yarn around it! Once again the crochet got shelved and I resigned myself to askill unmastered. until my lovely friend Sharon stepped in. Almost immedietly on our arrival for tea at her house, she put a hook, some sparkly yarn and a glass of white in my hand and informed me quite bluntly that I was not leaving until I had made a granny square. She knew all along that she could teach me but I was a little resistant, I'd tried and tried after all and my loops were still tight and my yarn was still split. But with a quiet, smiling certainty Sharon insisted that if I followed her instructions I could do it - anyone can.
She firmly corrected me when I screwed it up, when I got it right she encouraged me in a 'Of course that's right - it's that simple' kind of a way and one glass later I had a 3" piece of very wobbly double crochet in sparkly teal wool. OK then, moving on - straight headlong into the granny square, guess what - it's easy! My friend's approach is that she is 'sharing' rather than teaching, she has a discovered something joyful and firmly insists to the most unsuspecting people that they share in the joy. The yarn and hook is presented as a binding contract between giver and receiver and you feel unable to fail. And she is right, we DO need crochet like we need those new boots or NY vanilla cheesecake, we will forgo sleep for it and work on a blanket in public unashamed.
As you can see I have now completed my first project with the balls of James C Brett Twinkle as bequeathed by my tutor, mentor and possibly my religious leader! My knee rug is 120cm square and used up more or less every scrap of Twinkle Yarn I had. I had since met some amazing crochetists and discovered some wonderful online recources. I'm never going to be in their league I don't think, I will always be a fabric and thread kind of a girl at heart, but what about my vntage flowers? Well using this wonderful tutorial from Applehead, they too are becoming a reality! applehead.typepad.com/applehead/crochet_flowe rs/ I am definitely needing some even smaller hooks that the 2mm one I have used so far and I may also need a magnifier if I'm honest but my first attempts are encouraging and I am looking forward to combining them with some old pearl beads and bronze findings to combine my new skill with some Wychbury style! www.flickr.com/photos/wychbury/6901502491/in/ photostream/
Happy Hooking!

Documenta From Wikipedia,
The Fridericianum during documenta (13)
documenta is an exhibition of contemporary art which takes place every five years in Kassel, Germany. It was founded by artist, teacher and curator Arnold Bode in 1955 as part of the Bundesgartenschau (Federal Horticultural Show) which took place in Kassel at that time.[1] It was an attempt to bring Germany up to speed with modern art, both banishing and repressing the cultural darkness of Nazism.[2] This first documenta featured many artists who are generally considered to have had a significant influence on modern art (such as Picasso and Kandinsky). The more recent documentas feature art from all continents; nonetheless most of it is site-specific.
Every documenta is limited to 100 days of exhibition, which is why it is often referred to as the "museum of 100 days".[3] Documenta is not a selling exhibition. It rarely coincides with the three other major art world events: the Venice Biennale, Art Basel and Skulptur Projekte Münster, but in 2017, all four were open simultaneously.
Etymology of documenta
The name of the exhibition is an invented word. The term is supposed to demonstrate the intention of every exhibition (in particular of the first documenta in 1955) to be a documentation of modern art which was not available for the German public during the Nazi era. Rumour spread from those close to Arnold Bode that it was relevant for the coinage of the term that the Latin word documentum could be separated into docere (Latin for teach) and mens (Latin for intellect) and therefore thought it to be a good word to describe the intention and the demand of the documenta.[4]
Each edition of documenta has commissioned its own visual identity, most of which have conformed to the typographic style of solely using lowercase letters, which originated at the Bauhaus.[5]
History
Stadtverwaldung by Joseph Beuys, oaktree in front of the museum Fridericianum, documenta 7
Art professor and designer Arnold Bode from Kassel was the initiator of the first documenta. Originally planned as a secondary event to accompany the Bundesgartenschau, this attracted more than 130,000 visitors in 1955. The exhibition centred less on "contemporary art“, that is art made after 1945: instead, Bode wanted to show the public works which had been known as "Entartete Kunst" in Germany during the Nazi era: Fauvism, Expressionism, Cubism, Blauer Reiter, Futurism and Pittura Metafisica. Therefore, abstract art, in particular the abstract paintings of the 1920s and 1930s, was the focus of interest in this exhibition.
Over time, the focus shifted to contemporary art. At first, the show was limited to works from Europe, but soon covered works by artists from the Americas, Africa and Asia. 4. documenta, the first ever to turn a profit, featured a selection of Pop Art, Minimal Art, and Kinetic Art.[6] Adopting the theme of Questioning Reality – Pictorial Worlds Today, the 1972 documenta radically redefined what could be considered art by featuring minimal and conceptual art, marking a turning point in the public acceptance of those styles.[7] Also, it devoted a large section to the work of Adolf Wolfli, the great Swiss outsider, then unknown. Joseph Beuys performed repeatedly under the auspices of his utopian Organization for Direct Democracy.[8] Additionally, the 1987 documenta show signaled another important shift with the elevation of design to the realm of art – showing an openness to postmodern design.[9] Certain key political dates for wide-reaching social and cultural upheavals, such as 1945, 1968 or 1976/77, became chronological markers of documenta X (1997), along which art's political, social, cultural and aesthetic exploratory functions were traced.[10] Documenta11 was organized around themes like migration, urbanization and the post-colonial experience,[11] with documentary photography, film and video as well as works from far-flung locales holding the spotlight.[7] In 2012, documenta (13) was described as "[a]rdently feminist, global and multimedia in approach and including works by dead artists and selected bits of ancient art".[12]
Criticism
documenta typically gives its artists at least two years to conceive and produce their projects, so the works are often elaborate and intellectually complex.[13] However, the participants are often not publicised before the very opening of the exhibition. At documenta (13), the official list of artists was not released until the day the show opened.[14] Even though curators have often claimed to have gone outside the art market in their selection, participants have always included established artists. In the documenta (13), for example, art critic Jerry Saltz identified more than a third of the artists represented by the renowned Marian Goodman Gallery in the show.[14]
Directors
The first four documentas, organized by Arnold Bode, established the exhibition's international credentials. Since the fifth documenta (1972), a new artistic director has been named for each documenta exhibition by a committee of experts. Documenta 8 was put together in two years instead of the usual five. The original directors, Edy de Wilde and Harald Szeemann, were unable to get along and stepped down. They were replaced by Manfred Schneckenburger, Edward F. Fry, Wulf Herzogenrath, Armin Zweite, and Vittorio Fagone.[15] Coosje van Bruggen helped select artists for documenta 7, the 1982 edition. documenta IX's team of curators consisted of Jan Hoet, Piero Luigi Tazzi, Denys Zacharopoulos, and Bart de Baere.[16] For documenta X Catherine David was chosen as the first woman and the first non-German speaker to hold the post. It is also the first and unique time that its website Documenta x was conceived by a curator (swiss curator Simon Lamunière) as a part of the exhibition. The first non-European director was Okwui Enwezor for Documenta11.[17]

2012's edition was organized around a central node, the trans-Atlantic melding of two distinct individuals who first encountered each other in the "money-soaked deserts of the United Arab Emirates". As an organizing principle it is simultaneously a commentary on the romantic potentials of globalization and also a critique of how digital platforms can complicate or interrogate the nature of such relationships. Curatorial agents refer to the concept as possessing a "fricative potential for productive awkwardness," wherein a twosome is formed for the purposes of future exploration.[23]
Venues
documenta is held in different venues in Kassel. Since 1955, the fixed venue has been the Fridericianum. The documenta-Halle was built in 1992 for documenta IX and now houses some of the exhibitions. Other venues used for documenta have included the Karlsaue park, Schloss Wilhelmshöhe, the Neue Galerie, the Ottoneum, and the Kulturzentrum Schlachthof. Though Okwui Enezor notably tried to subvert the euro-centric approach documenta had taken, he instigated a series of five platforms before the Documenta11 in Vienna, Berlin, New Delhi, St Lucia, and Lagos, in an attempt to take documenta into a new post-colonial, borderless space, from which experimental cultures could emerge. documenta 12 occupied five locations, including the Fridericianum, the Wilhelmshöhe castle park and the specially constructed "Aue-Pavillon", or meadow pavilion, designed by French firm Lacaton et Vassal.[24] At documenta (13) (2012), about a fifth of the works were unveiled in places like Kabul, Afghanistan, and Banff, Canada.[13]
There are also a number of works that are usually presented outside, most notably in Friedrichsplatz, in front of the Fridericianum, and the Karlsaue park. To handle the number of artworks at documenta IX, five connected temporary "trailers" in glass and corrugated metal were built in the Karlsaue.[25] For documenta (13), French architects Anne Lacaton and Jean-Philippe Vassal constructed the temporary "Aue-Pavillon" in the park.
Rahmenbau (1977) by Haus Rucker und Co.
A few of the works exhibited at various documentas remained as purchases in Kassel museums. They include 7000 Eichen by Joseph Beuys; Rahmenbau (1977) by Haus-Rucker-Co; Laserscape Kassel (1977) by Horst H. Baumann; Traumschiff Tante Olga (1977) by Anatol Herzfeld; Vertikaler Erdkilometer by Walter De Maria; Spitzhacke (1982) by Claes Oldenburg; Man walking to the sky (1992) by Jonathan Borofsky; and Fremde by Thomas Schütte (one part of the sculptures are installed on Rotes Palais at Friedrichsplatz, the other on the roof of the Concert Hall in Lübeck).
documenta archive
The extensive volume of material that is regularly generated on the occasion of this exhibition prompted Arnold Bode to create an archive in 1961. The heart of the archive’s collection comes from the files and materials of the documenta organization. A continually expanding video and image archive is also part of the collection as are the independently organized bequests of Arnold Bode and artist Harry Kramer.
Management
Visitors
In 1992, on the occasion of documenta IX, for the first time in the history of the documenta, more than half a million people traveled to Kassel.[26] The 2002 edition of documenta attracted 650,000 visitors, more than triple Kassel's population.[27] In 2007, documenta 12 drew 754,000 paying visitors, with more than one-third of the visitors coming from abroad and guests from neighboring Netherlands, France, Belgium and Austria among the most numerous.[28] In 2012, documenta (13) had 904,992 visitors.[21]

lumbung
Short concept by ruangrupa for documenta 15
"We want to create a globally oriented, cooperative, interdisciplinary art and culture platform that will remain effective beyond the 100 days of documenta fifteen. Our curatorial approach aims at a different kind of collaborative model of resource use—economically, but also in terms of ideas, knowledge, programs, and innovation."
ruangrupa’s central curatorial approach for documenta fifteen is based on the principles of collectivity, resource building, and equal sharing. They aim to appeal not just to an art audience but to a variety of communities, and to promote local commitment and participation. Their approach is based on an international network of local, community-based organizations from the art and other cultural contexts and can be outlined by the Indonesian term lumbung. lumbung, directly translatable as “rice barn,” is a collective pot or accumulation system used in rural areas of Indonesia, where crops produced by a community are stored as a future shared common resource and distributed according to jointly determind criteria. Using lumbung as a model, documenta fifteen is a collective resource pot, operating under the logics of the commons. It is an agglomeration of ideas, stories, (wo)manpower, time, and other shareable resources. At the center of lumbung is the imagination and the building of these collective, shared resources into new models of sustainable ideas and cultural practices. This will be fostered by residencies, assemblies, public activities, and the development of tools.
Interdisciplinarity is key in this process. It is where art meets activism, management, and networking to gather support, understand environments, and identify local resources. These elements then create actions and spaces, intertwine social relations and transactions; they slowly grow and organically find a public form. This is a strategy “to live in and with society.” It imagines the relations an art institution has with its community by being an active constituent of it. Strategies are then developed based on proximity and shared desires.
The main principles of the process are:
• Providing space to gather and explore ideas
• Collective decision making
• Non-centralization
• Playing between formalities and informalities
• Practicing assembly and meeting points
• Architectural awareness
• Being spatially active to promote conversation
• A melting pot for and from everyone’s thoughts, energies, and ideas

It's been two years since I divorced my car (see URL below for an explanation of how our marriage went sour) . Of course I'd been cycling for work and play for much longer than that, mainly reliant on my folding bicycles, but on an impulse, I got out the old bike I haven't ridden for a good while. Been sitting in the garage. Having been riding one or another of my four 16" wheel Brompton folders with 6 gears for over a decade, I got a yen to try cycling with 21 gears and 24" wheels. This Eco Real (I can't even find it on the web) was my first proper bicycle. I'd always had bicycles - usually second-hand, costing anything between £10 and £50. Staying in the Highlands, I dropped into Halfords in Inverness. For fun they let me try out this bike, on sale in 1995 for over £400. I went mad. I cycled out of the shop and up the long hill of the A9 south from Inverness without a break - nothing to an experienced road cyclist, but for me, at 53, being able to do that seven mile journey back to my mother's house in Strathnairn with such ease and pace was a revelation about the difference between the bikes I'd ridden until then and one in a different class. People have asked me about the cost of a Brompton. When I tell them they often go "phew!" (to avoid that exclamation and give a bit of encouragement I do mention that they start at around £350). Ignorance about the cost difference between a high and low quality bicycle is widespread. I switched to a folder because I needed to go to lots of places by train and bus - what the transport planners call multi-mode travel, and I call versatile. Taking full sized bikes by public transport is difficult; often impossible in Britain. So I've put up with the lower hill climbing capacity of the Brompton to be able to combine cycling with long distance travel for work and play. I cycled in and out of town this afternoon on the Eco Real and got no small pleasure out of the extra turn of speed I got, but - oops - it's a lot harder getting my leg over the saddle when dismounting. On the other hand cycling with toeclips is a renewed pleasure. But I need to do a bit of tuning yet and of course, because I can't take it into places with me like the folder, I'll have to go back to using a lock. I doubt it'll replace the Brompton, but it was fun.
