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

"I can't wait 'til I get you on the floor, good-looking
Going hot, so hot, just like an oven
And I'll burn myself, but just had to touch it
But it's so fine and it's all mine
Hey baby, we don't mind all the watching, ha
Cause if they study close, real close
They might learn something
She ain't nothing but a little doozie when she does it
She's so fine tonight
And as long as I got my suit and tie
I'ma leave it all on the floor tonight
And you got fixed up to the nines
Let me show you a few things
All pressed up in black and white
And you're dressed in that dress I like
Love is swinging in the air tonight
Let me show you a few things
Let me show you a few things
Show you a few things about love
Now we're in the swing of love
Let me show you a few things
Show you a few things about love
Hey
Stop, let me get a good look at it
Oh, so thick, now I know why they call it a fatty
And aww, shit's so sick, got a hit and picked up a habit
But that's alright, cause you're all mine
Awww, go on and show 'em who you call "Daddy"
I guess they're just mad cause girl, they wish they had it
Oh, my killer, my thriller, yeah, you're a classic
And you're all mine tonight.."

Description :The Bengali Language Movement: and in Bangali Trnslation to ভাষা আন্দোলন
The Bengali Language Movement: Can read In Bangoli here]ভাষা আন্দোলন, also known as the Language Movement (Bengali: ভাষা আন্দোলন; Bhasha Andolon), was a political effort in Bangladesh (then known as East Pakistan), advocating the recognition of the Bengali language as an official language ofPakistan. Such recognition would allow Bengali to be used in government affairs.When the state of Pakistan was formed in 1947, its two regions, East Pakistan (also called East Bengal) and West Pakistan, were split along cultural, geographical, and linguistic lines. In 1948, the Government of Pakistan ordained Urdu as the sole national language, sparking extensive protests among the Bengali-speaking majority of East Pakistan. Facing rising sectarian tensions and mass discontent with the new law, the government outlawed public meetings and rallies. The students of the University of Dhaka and other political activists defied the law and organised a protest on 21 February 1952. The movement reached its climax when police killed student demonstrators on that day. The deaths provoked widespread civil unrest led by the Awami Muslim League, later renamed the Awami League. After years of conflict, the central government relented and granted official status to the Bengali language in 1956. In 2000,UNESCO declared 21 February International Mother Language Day for the whole world to celebrate[1], in tribute to the Language Movement and the ethno-linguistic rights of people around the world.The Language Movement catalysed the assertion of Bengali national identity in Pakistan, and became a forerunner to Bengali nationalist movements, including the 6-point movement and subsequently the Bangladesh Liberation War in 1971. In Bangladesh, 21 February is observed as Language Movement Day, a national holiday. The Shaheed Minar monument was constructed near Dhaka Medical College in memory of the movement and its victims
Background
The present nations of Pakistan and Bangladesh were part of undivided India during the British colonial rule. From the mid-19th century, the Urdu language had been promoted as thelingua franca of Indian Muslims by political and religious leaders such as Sir Khwaja Salimullah, Sir Syed Ahmed Khan, Nawab Viqar-ul-Mulk and Maulvi Abdul Haq.[2][3] Urdu is an Indo-Aryan language of the Indo-Iranian branch, belonging to the Indo-European family of languages. It developed under Persian, Arabic and Turkic influence on apabhramshas (last linguistic stage of the medieval Indian Aryan language Pali-Prakrit)[4] in South Asia during the Delhi Sultanate and Mughal Empire.[5] With its Perso-Arabic script, the language was considered a vital element of the Islamic culture for Indian Muslims; Hindi and the Devanagari script were seen as fundamentals of Hindu culture.[2]While the use of Urdu grew common with Muslims in northern India, the Muslims of Bengal (a province in the eastern part of British Indian sub-continent) primarily used the Bengali language. Bengali is an Eastern Indo-Aryan language that arose from the eastern Middle Indic languages around 1000 CE[6] and developed considerably during the Bengal Renaissance. As early as the late 19th century, social activists such as the Muslim feminist Roquia Sakhawat Hussain were choosing to write in Bengali to reach out to the people and develop it as a modern literary language. Supporters of Bengali opposed Urdu even before the partition of India, when delegates from Bengal rejected the idea of making Urdu the lingua franca of Muslim India in the 1937 Lucknow session of the Muslim League. The Muslim League was a British Indian political party that became the driving force behind the creation of Pakistan as a Muslim state separate from British India.[7]

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

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

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]

Description :The Bengali Language Movement: and in Bangali Trnslation to ভাষা আন্দোলন
The Bengali Language Movement: Can read In Bangoli here]ভাষা আন্দোলন, also known as the Language Movement (Bengali: ভাষা আন্দোলন; Bhasha Andolon), was a political effort in Bangladesh (then known as East Pakistan), advocating the recognition of the Bengali language as an official language ofPakistan. Such recognition would allow Bengali to be used in government affairs.When the state of Pakistan was formed in 1947, its two regions, East Pakistan (also called East Bengal) and West Pakistan, were split along cultural, geographical, and linguistic lines. In 1948, the Government of Pakistan ordained Urdu as the sole national language, sparking extensive protests among the Bengali-speaking majority of East Pakistan. Facing rising sectarian tensions and mass discontent with the new law, the government outlawed public meetings and rallies. The students of the University of Dhaka and other political activists defied the law and organised a protest on 21 February 1952. The movement reached its climax when police killed student demonstrators on that day. The deaths provoked widespread civil unrest led by the Awami Muslim League, later renamed the Awami League. After years of conflict, the central government relented and granted official status to the Bengali language in 1956. In 2000,UNESCO declared 21 February International Mother Language Day for the whole world to celebrate[1], in tribute to the Language Movement and the ethno-linguistic rights of people around the world.The Language Movement catalysed the assertion of Bengali national identity in Pakistan, and became a forerunner to Bengali nationalist movements, including the 6-point movement and subsequently the Bangladesh Liberation War in 1971. In Bangladesh, 21 February is observed as Language Movement Day, a national holiday. The Shaheed Minar monument was constructed near Dhaka Medical College in memory of the movement and its victims
Background
The present nations of Pakistan and Bangladesh were part of undivided India during the British colonial rule. From the mid-19th century, the Urdu language had been promoted as thelingua franca of Indian Muslims by political and religious leaders such as Sir Khwaja Salimullah, Sir Syed Ahmed Khan, Nawab Viqar-ul-Mulk and Maulvi Abdul Haq.[2][3] Urdu is an Indo-Aryan language of the Indo-Iranian branch, belonging to the Indo-European family of languages. It developed under Persian, Arabic and Turkic influence on apabhramshas (last linguistic stage of the medieval Indian Aryan language Pali-Prakrit)[4] in South Asia during the Delhi Sultanate and Mughal Empire.[5] With its Perso-Arabic script, the language was considered a vital element of the Islamic culture for Indian Muslims; Hindi and the Devanagari script were seen as fundamentals of Hindu culture.[2]While the use of Urdu grew common with Muslims in northern India, the Muslims of Bengal (a province in the eastern part of British Indian sub-continent) primarily used the Bengali language. Bengali is an Eastern Indo-Aryan language that arose from the eastern Middle Indic languages around 1000 CE[6] and developed considerably during the Bengal Renaissance. As early as the late 19th century, social activists such as the Muslim feminist Roquia Sakhawat Hussain were choosing to write in Bengali to reach out to the people and develop it as a modern literary language. Supporters of Bengali opposed Urdu even before the partition of India, when delegates from Bengal rejected the idea of making Urdu the lingua franca of Muslim India in the 1937 Lucknow session of the Muslim League. The Muslim League was a British Indian political party that became the driving force behind the creation of Pakistan as a Muslim state separate from British India.[7]

दो बार जब धरती पर चलने और मानव को बचाने का कार्य पूरा करने के लिए परमेश्वर ने देह धरी है, उन्हें धार्मिक दुनिया के अग्रणियों के अत्यधिक विरोध, तिरस्कार और उन्मादी निंदा का सामना करना पड़ा है, यह एक ऐसा सत्य जिससे लोग उलझन और संक्षोभ में पड़े है: ऐसा क्यों है कि हर बार जब परमेश्वर एक नए कार्य के चरण की शुरुआत करते हैं, तो उन्हें इस तरह के बर्ताव का सामना करना पड़ता है? ऐसा क्यों है कि वे जो सर्वाधिक उन्माद और उग्रता के साथ परमेश्वर का विरोध करते हैं, वे धार्मिक अग्रणीगण हैं जो बार—बार बाइबल पढ़ते हैं और जिन्होंने कई सालों तक परमेश्वर की सेवा की है? ऐसा क्यों है कि वे धार्मिक अग्रणीगण जिन्हें लोग सर्वाधिक धर्मनिष्ठ, विश्वासी और परमेश्वर के आज्ञाकारी मानते हैं, वे असल में परमेश्वर के अनुकूल नहीं हैं, बल्कि वे हमेशा विकृतिपूर्वक उनके शत्रु बन जाते हैं? क्या ऐसा हो सकता है कि परमेश्वर ने अपने कार्य में गलती की है? क्या यह हो सकता है कि परमेश्वर के कार्य विवेकपूर्ण नहीं है? निश्चित रूप से यह बात नहीं है! इस बात के दो मूल कारण हैं कि विभिन्न जातियों व संप्रदायों में ऐसे लोग हैं जो परमेश्वर का विरोध करने, परमेश्वर का शत्रु बनने की भूमिका निभाने में सक्षम हैं, और ये हैं: सर्वप्रथम कि इन लोगों को सत्य का पता न होने और पवित्र आत्मा के कार्य की जानकारी न होने के साथ ही, इन्हें परमेश्वर का ज्ञान भी नहीं है, वे हमेशा परमेश्वर के कार्य, जो नित नूतन व कभी पुराने नहीं होते, का निरूपण करने के लिए बाइबल के अपने सीमित ज्ञान, आध्यामिक सिद्धांतों और लोगों की अवधारणाओं व कल्पनाओं पर हमेशा ही निर्भर रहते हैं; दूसरा, चूंकि मानवता शैतान द्वारा गहराई से भ्रष्ट हो गई है, इसलिए इसकी प्रवृत्ति अहंकारी व घमंडी हो गई है, यह सत्य का पालन करने में सक्षम नहीं है और ये प्रतिष्ठा को विशेषरूप से महत्व देती है। इन दो पहलुओं के संयोजन की वजह से पूरे इतिहास में बार—बार सत्य के मार्ग को त्यागने व इसका विरोध करने की मानवता की त्रासदी हुई है।
दो हजार साल पहले का देखिए, जब प्रभु यीशु यहूदी लोगों के मध्य थे, तो उन्होंने कई चमत्कार किए थे, बीमारों को चंगा करके और दुष्ट आत्माओं को बाहर निकाल कर लोगों की मदद की थी, उन्होंने स्वर्ग के राज्य के सुसमाचार का प्रचार किया, लोगों को पश्चाताप करना सिखाया, और उनके पापों से उन्हें मुक्ति दी। ये वे सब बातें हैं जिन्हें पुराने नियम में दर्ज नहीं किया गया था, और यह ऐसा भी काम था जिसका पालन पहले कभी भी किसी ने नहीं किया था। बिल्कुल, यह ऐसा कुछ था जिसका पालन कोई नहीं कर सकता था, क्योंकि परमेश्वर के अलावा किसी के पास भी ऐसा करने का अधिकार व ताकत नहीं हैं। प्रभु यीशु ने उस समय जो किया था वह सलीब पर लटककर मनुष्य के पापों को निजी तौर पर मान लिया था ताकि मानव को पापों से बचाया व छुटकारा दिया जा सके, मनुष्य पर प्रचुर मात्रा में और बहुलता से आशीष न्यौछावर कर नए युग के कार्य के माध्यम से व्यवस्था के नियमों से मनुष्य को बाहर लाया जा सके, जब मानव सिर्फ इसलिए दंडित न किया जाए क्योंकि वह व्यवस्था का पालन करने में असक्षम है। इस व्यवस्था के तहत ये लोग केवल तभी परमेश्वर का उद्धार पा सकते हैं और नष्ट न होंगे जब वे प्रभु यीशु के कार्य का अनुसरण करेंगे। लेकिन यहूदियों के प्रमुख पुजारी, धर्मशास्त्री और फरीसी पवित्र आत्मा के कार्य को नहीं पहचानते हैं, वे नहीं समझते हैं कि प्रभु यीशु किस प्रकार से कार्य करते हैं, अपने मन में वे विश्वास रखते हैं: व्यवस्था का पालन नहीं करना, यहोवा परमेश्वर के नाम से प्रार्थना नहीं करना, परमेश्वर को धोखा देने के समान है, जो बिल्कुल बेतुका है। इसके अलावा, वे बाइबल के उत्साही पाठक और कई सालों तक मंदिर में यहोवा परमेश्वर के सेवक के रूप में अकड़ दिखाते हैं, और वे मानते हैं कि वे जिसका अनुसरण कर रहे हैं वही सत्य और सर्वाधिक शुद्ध मार्ग है, और इसलिए जहां तक वे विचार करते हैं, प्रभु यीशु का कार्य बाइबल के विरुद्ध जाता है और व्यवस्था का उल्लंघन करता है, वह बाइबल से बहुत भिन्न है, और इस वजह से वे प्रभु यीशु द्वारा प्रसारित किए गए मार्ग को स्वीकार करने के स्थान पर मरना पसंद करेंगे। वे प्रभु यीशु के कार्य को भी ‘विधर्मी’, एक ‘दुष्ट कुपंथ’ और उन्हें ‘धोखेबाज मनुष्य’ मानते हैं। भले ही प्रभु यीशु के कार्य व वचन में अधिकार, शक्ति व प्रबुद्धता है, भले ही प्रभु यीशु ने जो चमत्कार दिखाए वे इतिहास में अभूतपूर्व हैं, भले ही ज्यादा से ज्यादा लोग प्रभु यीशु के कार्यों के गवाह बनने के लिए आते हैं और इस सत्य के गवाह बनते हैं कि प्रभु यीशु ही वे मसीहा हैं जो आएंगे, वे फिर भी जांच—पड़ताल करने व उच्चतर मार्ग खोजने की इच्छा नहीं रखते हैं, बल्कि वे अपने दृष्टिकोण से चिपके रहते हैं, और गरदन अकड़ा कर वे साफ तौर पर मना कर देते हैं कि प्रभु यीशु ही मसीहा हैं, कि प्रभु यीशु ही वह मुक्तिदाता हैं जो आएंगे। जैसा कि सर्वशक्तिमान परमेश्वर ने प्रकाशित किया है: “मनुष्य केवल एक ही प्रकार का कार्य या एक ही प्रकार का अभ्यास स्वीकार करने में समर्थ है। मनुष्य के लिए ऐसे कार्य या अभ्यास के तरीकों को स्वीकार करना कठिन होता है, जो उनके साथ विरोधाभास प्रकट करते हैं, या उनसे उच्चतर हैं—परन्तु पवित्र आत्मा हमेशा नया कार्य कर रही है और इसलिए धार्मिक विशेषज्ञों के समूह के बाद समूह दिखाई देते हैं जो परमेश्वर के नए कार्य का विरोध करते हैंहो। ये लोग ठीक तरीके से “विशेषज्ञ” बन गए हैं क्योंकि मनुष्य के पास ज्ञान नहीं है कि परमेश्वर किस प्रकार हमेशा नया रहता है और कभी भी पुराना नहीं होता है, और परमेश्वर के कार्य के सिद्धान्तों का कोई ज्ञान नहीं है और इसके अधिक क्या, कि उन विभिन्न मार्गों का ज्ञान नहीं है जिनमें परमेश्वर मनुष्य को बचाता है। वैसे तो, मनुष्य यह बताने में सर्वथा असमर्थ है कि क्या यह वह कार्य है जो पवित्र आत्मा की ओर से आता है, क्या यह परमेश्वर का कार्य है। कई लोग इस प्रकार के दृष्टिकोण से चिपके रहते हैं जिसमें, यदि यह पहले आए हुए वचनों के अनुरूप है, तब वे इसे स्वीकार करते हैं, और यदि पहले किए गए कार्य में कोई अंतर हैं, तब वे इसका विरोध करते हैं और अस्वीकार करदेते हैं।” (“वचन देह में प्रकट होता है” से “परमेश्वर के कार्य के तीन चरणों को जानना ही परमेश्वर को जानने का मार्ग है” से)। परमेश्वर में विश्वासी व्यक्ति के रूप में व्यवहार करने के लिए सबसे पहले हमारे पास एक ऐसा हृदय होना चाहिए जिसमें परमेश्वर के लिए सम्मान और धार्मिकता के लिए प्रबल आकांक्षा हो, केवल इसी तरीके से हम पवित्र आत्मा से प्रबुद्धता हासिल करने, परमेश्वर के नए कार्य को समझने और परमेश्वर के पदचिन्हों का ध्यानपूर्वक अनुकरण करने में सक्षम हो पाएंगे। हालांकि यहूदियों के प्रमुख पुजारी, धर्मशास्त्री और फरीसी प्रभु यीशु के संपर्क में कई बार आए हैं, लेकिन कभी भी सिर्फ सत्य की खोज के लिए नहीं। हर बार वे प्रभु यीशु की परीक्षा लेने के लिए कोई युक्ति बनाते रहते हैं, प्रभु यीशु और कोई ऐसी चीज या तरीका जानने की कोशिश करते रहते हैं जिसे वे प्रभु यीशु के विरूद्ध उपयोग कर सकें। वे सभी एक ही प्रकार के हैं जिनके पास परमेश्वर का कोई ज्ञान नहीं, और वे सभी परमेश्वर के नए कार्य के बारे में धारणायें बना चुके हैं, जबकि नतनएल और सामरी महिला व अनुयायी और सामान्य लोग जो प्रभु यीशु का अनुसरण करते हैं वे सत्य खोजने के लिए अपनी धारणाओं को खारिज करने के लिए तैयार हैं। इस प्रकार से वे प्रभु यीशु की पहचान जानने, परमेश्वर की आवाज पहचानने, सत्य का पालन व उसे स्वीकार करने, और परमेश्वर के मुख के सामने वापस आने में सक्षम हुए हैं। इस तुलना से, हम साफ तौर पर यह देख सकते हैं कि यहूदियों की धार्मिक दुनिया में उच्च स्तर के व्यक्ति न केवल अड़ियल ढंग से रूढ़िवादी हैं, बल्कि बदतमीज और घमंडी भी हैं, वे आधारभूत रूप से सत्य को स्वीकार नहीं करते हैं, और निश्चित रूप से सत्य का पालन नहीं करते हैं। यह उनके द्वारा परमेश्वर के विरोध के कारणों में से एक है।
इसके अलावा, जैसे जैसे ज्यादा से ज्यादा सामान्य यहूदी लोगों ने प्रभु यीशु का अनुसरण करना शुरू किया, प्रमुख पुजारी, धर्मशास्त्री व फरीसी लोग आम लोगों के दिलों में अपना स्थान खोने को लेकर चिंतित होने लगे। लोगों के अब उनकी पूजा न करने या उनका अनुसरण न करने की वजह से, वे उत्तरोत्तर चिंतित होने लगे, क्योंकि प्रभु यीशु के वचनों व कार्य का अधिकार व शक्ति उनकी पहुंच से बाहर की है, जिस वजह से वे तुलना में फीके हो गए, वे खुद से शर्मिंदा महसूस करने लगे, और इस प्रकार से उन्हें तेजी से संकट का बोध होने लगा: प्रभु यीशु अ्रगर एक और दिन भी जिंदा रह जाते तो और अधिक आम लोग उन्हें छोड़कर प्रभु यीशु का अनुसरण करने लगेंगे, फलत: मंदिर में कुछ ही लोग रह जाते और वे ऐसे जीवन का आनंद लेने में सक्षम नहीं होते, जो दूसरों के सहयोग से मुहैया की गर्इ है और जो अन्य लोगों से नायाब है। यह प्रभु यीशु को उनकी आंखों में सुई या उनकी देह में कांटे की तरह प्रतीत कराता है, और इसने उन्हें एक ऐसे शत्रु के रूप में परिवर्तित कर दिया जो उनके साथ एक ही दुनिया में नहीं रह सकते। अपने रूतबे को बचाने के लिए, उन्होंने वो सब सोचा जो वो कर सकते थे और प्रभु यीशु को गलत आरोपों में फंसाने के लिए हर प्रकार के घिनौने तरीकों का उपयोग किया।
उन्होंने प्रभु यीशु के कार्य की निंदा की और उसका विरोध किया, उन्होंने प्रभु यीशु को बदनाम किया और उन्हें कलंकित किया, यह कहा कि वे शैतानों को निकालने के लिए बालज़बूल पर भरोसा करते हैं, और उन्होंने प्रभु यीशु पर पवित्र स्थान और व्यवस्था के विरुद्ध बोलने के आरोप के झूठे गवाह भी पेश किए (प्रेरितों 6:10—14 देखें)। यहूदी लोगों के मध्य से प्रभु यीशु को मिटाने के लिए वे जो भी हो वो करने वाले थे, और अंत में उन्होंने निर्दयता के साथ उन्हें सलीब पर लटका दिया। जब प्रभु यीशु का पुनरूत्थान हुआ, तो वे अपने अनुयायियों के समक्ष प्रकट हुए, और सुसमाचार के अपने प्रसार के साथ वहां शक्ति व चमत्कार थे, तथ्य थे जो यह साबित करने के लिए पर्याप्त हैं कि इस प्रकार से पवित्र आत्मा का कार्य होता है, कि यह पवित्र आत्मा द्वारा कायम रखा जाता है, और यह सत्य का मार्ग है! इन परिस्थितियों के तहत, वे प्रमुख पुजारी, धर्मशास्त्री व पाखंडी फिर इस पर विचार नहीं किए: प्रभु यीशु का सुसमाचार इतना अनुकूल कैसे हो सकता है? असल में, वे लोग जो बाइबल में दक्ष हैं और जो खुद को ‘सम्मानीय’ समझते हैं, वे बस यह महसूस करते हैं कि गांव के मछुआरों व सामान्य अज्ञानी लोगों, जिनके पास ज्ञान या प्रतिष्ठा नहीं है, उनके साथ ऐसी चीजों को खोजना व इनका अध्ययन करना उनके लिए योग्यता से कमतर है, और वे ‘व्यवस्था बनाए रखने और सच्चे मार्ग की रक्षा करने’ के नाम पर पाखंडपूर्वक काम भी करते हैं, जबकि वे प्रचारकों व प्रभु यीशु के अनुयायियों व सामान्य यहूदी लोगों को उग्रतापूर्वक दबाने, उनका उत्पीड़न करने व उनकी हत्या करने के उनके काम को तेज करने के लिए शासकों के साथ सांठ—गांठ करके अपनी उंगलियों की ताकत का दुरूपयोग जारी रखते हैं। वे प्रभु यीशु का अनुसरण करने से लोगों को रोकने के लिए अपनी शक्ति अनुसार सब कुछ करते हैं, यहां तक कि वे कठोरता के साथ प्रभु यीशु के नाम का प्रचार करने से हर किसी को प्रतिबंधित भी कर देते हैं। अपनी स्थिति और अपनी आजीविका को बचाने के लिए, ऐसा कोई अपराध नहीं है जो वे नहीं करेंगे, जो प्रभु यीशु को लेकर उनके उग्र विरोध व तिरस्कार का एक अन्य कारण भी है। निश्चित रूप से, उनके बुरे कर्मों ने परमेश्वर के भीषण क्रोध को उत्तेजित किया है, उन्होंने परमेश्वर के दंड को सहा है। पूरी यहूदी जाति लगभग 2,000 साल से एक पराजित राष्ट्र रही है, परमेश्वर का विरोध करने व उनका तिरस्कार करने के लिए यह एक दुखदायी मूल्य उन्होंने चुकाया है।
चलिए वर्तमान में वापस आते हैं जहां हम अंत के दिनों में हैं। परमेश्वर ने उन लोगों के लिए बृहत्तर उद्धार तैयार किया है जिन्हें उन्होंने मुक्ति दी है। इस उद्धार में परमेश्वर मानव जाति का फैसला करने और उन्हें स्वच्छ करने के लिए वचनों का प्रयोग कर रहे हैं। यह एक नया, उच्चतर कार्य है। इस स्तर का कार्य मनुष्य को उसकी शैतानी भ्रष्ट प्रवृत्ति से पूरी तरह मुक्ति दिलाएगा। यह मानव को शैतान के अंधकारमय प्रभाव से स्वतंत्र करेगा और मानवता को उस जाति में बदलेगा जो परमेश्वर को जानती है, जो परमेश्वर के अनुकूल है और सच्चे मायने में परमेश्वर की है, जिसके बाद वह उद्धार हासिल करेगी और निपुण बनेगी। यह परमेश्वर की छ: हजार साल की प्रबंधन योजना में कार्य का अंतिम चरण है। परमेश्वर के अंत के दिनों के कार्य में, देहधारी मसीह ऐसे सभी प्रकार के सत्यों को व्यक्त करते हैं जो मनुष्य का शुद्धिकरण करते हैं व उसे बचाते हैं। वे मानव की भ्रष्ट सार और प्रकृति दिखाते हैं और उसका निर्णय करते हैं, और वे उस मार्ग को भी दिखाते हैं जिस पर मानव अपने भ्रष्टाचार को तोड़ने के लिए चल सकता है।
वह सब प्रकार के स्वर्गीय रहस्यों को भी प्रकट करते है। इसके अलावा, परमेश्वर दुनिया के सभी परिवारों तक अंत के दिनों के सुसमाचार का प्रचार करने के लिए अपनी प्रबुद्धता, ताकत व अधिकार का प्रयोग करते है, और वे लाखों लोग जो सत्य को खोजते हैं और उसके लिए लालायित हैं वे एक—एक करके विभिन्न धर्मों व पंथों से सर्वशक्तिमान परमेश्वर की उपस्थिति के समक्ष वापस आ गए हैं। इस पर्वत की ओर प्रवाहित हो रहे सभी देशों का एक अभूतपूर्व दृश्य उपस्थित हुआ है, और अंत के दिनों का सुसमाचार फिलहाल पूरी दुनिया के हर देश व हर स्थानों में विस्तार कर रहा है। हालांकि, इन सभी सत्यों, पवित्र आत्मा के कार्य के बड़े आश्चर्य व गवाही का सामना करते हुए, इस धार्मिक दुनिया के रहनुमाओं ने अपनी आंखें बंद कर ली है और उनसे थोड़े से भी प्रेरित नहीं हुए हैं, वे ध्यान से उनका अध्ययन नहीं कर रहे हैं, वे विनय के साथ उन्हें स्वीकार नहीं कर रहे हैं। ये लोग उन फरीसियों की तरह ही हैं, वे यह बात नहीं जानते हैं कि पवित्र आत्मा का कार्य लगातार आगे बढ़ता रहता है, वे यह नहीं जानते हैं कि पवित्र आत्मा के कार्य का सिद्धांत यह है कि यह हमेशा नया रहता है और कभी भी पुराना नहीं होता है, उन्हें अंत के दिनों में सर्वशक्तिमान परमेश्वर के कार्य के सिद्धांत के बारे में थोड़ा सा भी ज्ञान नहीं है, और यहां तक कि सख्त आत्मविश्वास के साथ वे यह मानते हैं कि: चूंकि वे पहले से ही एक ऐसे मार्ग का आनंद ले रहे हैं जो व्यवस्था के युग से ज्यादा ऊंचा है, चूंकि वे पूरी तरह से पुराने व नए विधान में दक्ष हैं और उन्होंने कई सालों तक धर्मोपदेश पर कार्य किया है और उसका प्रचार किया है, इसलिए वे सत्य व परमेश्वर का ज्ञान पा चुके हैं। इसके साथ ही, वे एक भ्रामक अवधारणा में अड़ियल ढंग से विश्वास करते हैं, जिसे वे सत्य मानते हैं: कि प्रभु के सभी वचन बाइबल में दर्ज हैं, यह कि अगर यह प्रभु यीशु के कार्य के कार्यक्षेत्र के बाहर जाता है, यह कि अगर वह बाइबल के परे जाता है, तो यह सही मार्ग नहीं है। अनुग्रह के युग में मानव का परमेश्वर की आवश्यकता से दूर हटना प्रभु यीशु की शिक्षा का उल्लंघन करना होगा, केवल वे बातें जो वे स्वीकार करते हैं, जिसकी उन्हें जानकारी है और जिस पर वे अवलंबित रहते हैं, इसके परे कुछ भी विधर्म या कुपंथ होगा। इन लोगों ने बाइबल के अंदर परमेश्वर को सुदृढ़ता के साथ चित्रित किया है, उन्होंने उन्हें धर्मों में और मानव की कल्पना के अंदर चित्रित किया है। सर्वशक्तिमान परमेश्वर चाहे कितना भी उच्च कार्य लेकर आए, पवित्र आत्मा का जितना भी कार्य उनके पास हो, वे अभ्यास के जितने भी तरीके लेकर आए, और उसे सत्यापित करने के लिए कितने भी तथ्य क्यों न हो, वे यह नहीं मानते हैं कि यह परमेश्वर की ओर से है, और इसलिए वे प्रभु यीशु की वापसी के लिए शत्रुतापूर्ण दृष्टिकोण व संदेहपूर्ण रवैया अपना रखते हैं, इस हद तक कि देहधारी परमेश्वर की निंदा करते हैं और अंत के दिनों में मसीहा के कार्य व वचन को नीचा दिखाते हैं। क्या ये उन पाखंडियों की तरह नहीं हैं, जो अपने समय में बेहद जिद्दी व रूढ़िवादी व अभिमानी और आत्म—अभिमानी थे, सत्य से मुख मोड़ लेते थे और पवित्र आत्मा की निंदा किया करते थे? यह वैसा ही है जैसा सर्वशक्तिमान परमेश्वर ने कहा था: “यदि तुम्हें परमेश्वर के बारे में उसके कार्य के केवल एक चरण के द्वारा पता चलता है, तो तुम्हारा ज्ञान भी बहुत कम है। तुम्हारा ज्ञान समुद्र में मात्र एक बूँद की तरह है। यदि नहीं, तो कई पुराने धार्मिक रक्षकों ने परमेश्वर को जीवित सलीब पर क्यों चढ़ाया होता? क्या यह इसलिए नहीं है क्योंकि मनुष्य परमेश्वर को निश्चित मापदण्डों के भीतर सीमित करता है? क्या कई लोग इसलिए परमेश्वर का विरोध नहीं करते हैं और पवित्र आत्मा के कार्य में बाधा नहीं डालते हैं क्योंकि वे परमेश्वर के विभिन्न और विविधतापूर्ण कार्यों को नहीं जानते हैं, और इसके अलावा, क्योंकि वे केवल चुटकीभर ज्ञान और सिद्धांत से संपन्न होते हैं जिके भीतर वे पवित्र आत्मा के कार्य को मापते हैं? यद्यपि इस प्रकार के लोगों का अनुभव केवल सतही होता है, किन्तु वे घमण्डी और आसक्त प्रकृति के होते हैं, और वे पवित्र आत्मा के कार्य को अवमानना से देखते हैं, पवित्र आत्मा के अनुशासनों की उपेक्षा करते हैं और इसके अलावा, पवित्र आत्मा के कार्यों की “पुष्टि” करने के लिए अपने पुराने तुच्छ तर्कों का उपयोग करते हैं। वे एक नाटक भी करते हैं, और अपनी स्वयं की शिक्षा और पाण्डित्य पर पूरी तरह से आश्वस्त होते हैं, और यह कि वे संसार भर में यात्रा करने में सक्षम होते हैं। क्या ये ऐसे लोग नहीं हैं जो पवित्र आत्मा के द्वारा तिरस्कृत और अस्वीकार किए गए हैं और क्या ये नए युग के द्वारा हटा नहीं दिए जाएँगे? क्या ये वही अदूरदर्शी छोटे लोग नहीं हैं जो परमेश्वर के सामने आते हैं और खुले आम उसका विरोध करते हैं, जो केवल यह दिखावा करने का प्रयास कर रहे हैं कि वे कितने चालाक हैं? बाइबिल के अल्प ज्ञान के साथ, वे संसार के “शैक्षणिक समुदाय” में पैर पसारने की कोशिश करते हैं, लोगों को सिखाने के लिए केवल सतही सिद्धांतों के साथ, वे पवित्र आत्मा के कार्य को पलटने का प्रयत्न करते हैं, और इसे अपने ही स्वयं के विचारों की प्रक्रिया के चारों ओर घूमाते रहने का प्रयास करते हैं, और अदूरदर्शी की तरह हैं, वे एक ही झलक में परमेश्वर के 6000 सालों के कार्यों को देखने की कोशिश करते हैं। क्या इन लोगों के पास बातचीत करने का कोई भी कारण है? वास्तव में, परमेश्वर के बारे में लोगों को जितना अधिक ज्ञान होता है, उतना ही धीमा वे उसके कार्य का आँकलन करने में होते हैं। इसके अलावा, आज वे परमेश्वर के कार्य के बारे में अपने ज्ञान की बहुत ही कम बातचीत करते हैं, बल्कि वे अपने निर्णय में जल्दबाज़ी नहीं करते हैं। लोग परमेश्वर के बारे में जितना कम जानते हैं, उतना ही अधिक वे घमण्डी और अतिआत्मविश्वासी होते हैं और उतना ही अधिक बेहूदगी से परमेश्वर के अस्तित्व की घोषणा करते हैंहो—फिर भी वे केवल सिद्धांत की बात ही करते हैं और कोई भी वास्तविक प्रमाण प्रस्तुत नहीं करते हैं। इस प्रकार के लोगों का कोई मूल्य नहीं होता है। जो पवित्र आत्मा के कार्य को एक खेल की तरह देखते हैं वे ओछे होते हैं! जो लोग पवित्र आत्मा के नए कार्य का सामना करते समय सचेत नहीं होते हैं, जो अपना मुँह चलाते रहते हैं, वे आलोचनात्मक होते हैं, जो पवित्र आत्मा के धर्मी कार्यों को इनकार करने की अपनी प्राकृतिक सहज प्रवृत्ति पर लगाम नहीं लगाते हैं और उसका अपमान और ईशनिंदा करते हैं—क्या इस प्रकार के असभ्य लोग पवित्र आत्मा के कार्य के बारे में अनभिज्ञ नहीं रहते हैं? इसके अलावा, क्या वे अभिमानी, अंतर्निहित रूप से घमण्डी और अशासनीय नहीं हैं?” (“वचन देह में प्रकट होता है” से “परमेश्वर के कार्य के तीन चरणों को जानना ही परमेश्वर को जानने का मार्ग है” से)।
जैसे जैसे वे लोग जो परमेश्वर में सच्चा विश्वास करते हैं वे परमेश्वर के घर बड़ी मात्रा में वापस आते हैं, अंत के दिनों में परमेश्वर के कार्य का क्रमिक विस्तार अपने उत्कर्ष पर पहुंच गया है, लेकिन पवित्र आत्मा के कार्य की इतनी सफलता के उपरांत भी, वे धार्मिक अग्रणीगण जो पहले उच्च व शक्तिशाली हुआ करते थे और वे धार्मिक विशेषज्ञ जो दूसरों को निर्देशित करते हैं, वे खुद को नहीं बदल रहे हैं, न ही वे खोजने व अध्ययन करने के लिए अपने घमंडी सिर को नीचे करते हैं। इसके विपरीत, इन लोगों को यह अहसास होता है कि इनकी स्थिति ज्यादा से ज्यादा संदिग्ध होती जा रही है, कि ये हर समय अस्थिर हैं, और वे इस बात से डरना शुरू कर देते हैं कि हर कोई सर्वशक्तिमान परमेश्वर की ओर मुड़ जाएगा और उन्हें बिल्कुल नजरअंदाज करके त्याग दिया जाएगा। परिणामस्वरूप, ‘वर्तमान स्थिति को फिर से बहाल’ करने के लिए, विभिन्न धर्मों व पंथों के पादरीगण, एल्डर्स, अग्रणीगण और सहयोगी कार्यकर्ता ‘परमेश्वर के लिए समुदाय की रक्षा करने और सही मार्ग पर कायम रहने’ के नाम पर काम करते हैं। उन्होंने सर्वशक्तिमान परमेश्वर की निंदा करने व उन पर हमला करने की इच्छा से अफवाहों व अन्य नीच तरीकों को प्रसारित करने के लिए इंटरनेट का इस्तेमाल करते हुए, प्रचार सामग्री के निर्माण और वितरण जैसे उपायों को अपनाना शुरू कर दिया है। वे अपमानित करने वाली अफवाहें फैलाते हैं, जिसमें दावा किया जाता है कि सर्वशक्तिमान परमेश्वर के वचन, परमेश्वर का वचन नहीं है, कि वे मनुष्य द्वारा लिखे गए हैं, और वे यह बकवास भी करते हैं कि “यह किताब एक ऐसे मायाजाल की तरह है जो आप पर जादू कर देती है, अगर आप इसे पढ़ते हैं तो यह आपके दिमाग को भ्रमित कर देगी,” और अन्य चीजें जो तथ्यों को विकृत और ग़लत ढंग से प्रस्तुत करती हैं और सर्वशक्तिमान परमेश्वर के कलीसिया को “चमकती पूर्वी बिजली के पंथ” के रूप में पेश करते हैं, जो कि एक आपराधिक संगठन है। इस तरह से विश्वासियों को धोखा देकर व धमकाकर, वे सुनिश्चित करते हैं कि बेवकूफ और अज्ञानी लोग परमेश्वर के सुसमाचार तक पहुंचने और उनके संपर्क में आने की हिम्मत न करें, विभिन्न धर्मों और संप्रदायों में इस हद तक नाकाबंदी कर दी जाती है कि एक सुंई भी भीतर न जा सके, न ही पानी रिस सके। ये धार्मिक नेता अपने विश्वासियों को चमकती पूर्वी बिजली की पुस्तकों को पढ़ने या चमकती पूर्वी बिजली के उपदेशों को सुनने से मना कर देते हैं, ये अपने विश्वासियों को अंत के दिनों में परमेश्वर के उद्धार का प्रचार करने वाले लोगों या फिर किसी अजनबी से भी मिलने की अनुमति नहीं देते हैं, और वे पूरी तरह से अनुग्रह के युग में परमेश्वर की शिक्षाओं के खिलाफ जाते हैं जहां वे अपरिचितों को स्वीकार करने के लिए मनुष्य से कहते हैं। वह बात जो लोगों के लिए सर्वाधिक चौंकाने वाली है, वह यह है कि, परमेश्वर के विश्वासी होने के बावजूद, ये लोग सीसीपी के शैतानी शासन के साथ सांठ—गांठ रखते है, जो अंत के दिनों के सुसमाचार का प्रसार करने वाले भाइयों व बहनों को खोजकर, उन पर नज़र रखकर व उनकी सूचना देकर अपने संदेहपूर्ण व दुष्ट कामों को आगे बढ़ाते हैं, और वे ईसाइयों को सीसीपी द्वारा गुप्त रूप से पकड़ने के लिए जानकारी एकत्रित करने के लिए कलीसिया के अंदर से अनदेखे धोखेबाज़ों के रूप में काम भी करते हैं। ऐसा लगता है कि वे परमेश्वर की गवाही देने वालों को अलग करके और परमेश्वर के नए कार्य को समाप्त करके ही अपने दिल में मौजूद घृणा से राहत महसूस कर सकते हैं। ये लोग अच्छी तरह से जानते हैं कि सर्वशक्तिमान परमेश्वर का अनुसरण करने वाले लोग अच्छे स्वभाव के लोग हैं जिनका परमेश्वर में सच्चा विश्वास है, और वे यह बात और भी अच्छी तरह से जानते हैं कि अंत के दिनों में परमेश्वर का उद्धार पाने को लेकर प्रचार करने में इन लोगों के मन में कोई भी बुरी मंशा नहीं है, फिर भी ये असभ्य व क्रूर तरीके से उनका अपमान करते हैं, उन्हें दूर भगाते हैं और सुसमाचार का प्रचार करने वाले भाइयों व बहनों पर शारीरिक रूप से हमला भी करते हैं। यह साफ है कि इन धार्मिक रहनुमाओंने बहुत पहले ही पवित्र आत्मा के कार्य को प्राप्त करना बंद कर दिया था, और यह भी साफ है कि ये सत्य को स्वीकार नहीं करते, कि वे सत्य का विरोध करते हैं, और कि ये सत्य से स्वभावपूर्वक और सारभूत रूप से घृणा करते हैं। बाहर से, ये लोग कार्य को आगे ले जाने के लिए मेहनत करते हुए नजर आते हैं, लेकिन अंदर से ये जंगली आकांक्षाओं और अवज्ञा से उलझन में हैं। असल में, ये पद के लिए षडयंत्र करने की कोशिश कर रहे हैं, अपने खुद के फायदे के लिए प्रयासरत हैं, और अपनी स्वार्थी इच्छाओं को संतुष्ट करने के लिए जो भी कर सकते हैं कर रहे हैं।
यह साफ तौर पर देखा जाता है कि भले ही वह अपने समय की यहूदियों की धार्मिक दुनिया हो या फिर आज के विभिन्न धर्मों व संप्रदायों के धार्मिक व्यक्ति विशेष, उनका परमेश्वर, सत्य व सच्चे मार्ग का बार—बार विरोध, ‘स्वीकारने की जगह मर जाएंगे’ और ‘धैर्य के साथ मौत का सामना करेंगे’ आदि का मूलभूत कारण यह है कि वे इस सिद्धांत को स्वीकार नहीं करते हैं कि परमेश्वर का कार्य हमेशा नया होता है और कभी पुराना नहीं होता, न ही उन्हें परमेश्वर के नए कार्य का ज्ञान है, और इससे भी बढ़कर वे सत्य का बिल्कुल अनुसरण नहीं करते हैं, वे जिद्दी व रूढ़िवादी हैं, वे घमंडी व आत्म—अभिमानी हैं। इस बात का उनके अपने पद को लेकर बेहद चिंतित रहने से संबंध है जो कि बहुत निम्न दर्जे का है। आजकल, नए युग द्वारा पुराने युग का स्थान लेने के इस महत्वपूर्ण समय में, आध्यात्मिक दुनिया में लड़ाई अपने चरम पर पहुंच गई है। यदि लोग फिर भी इन धार्मिक लोगों द्वारा फैलाई जाने वाली अफवाहों व गलत प्रचारों पर विश्वास करते हैं और उनके द्वारा भ्रमित होकर कष्ट उठाते हैं, अगर वे अंत के दिनों में परमेश्वर द्वारा किए गए कार्य और उनके द्वारा बोले गए वचनों पर ध्यान नहीं देते हैं या उनकी अवज्ञा और उनसे घृणा भी करते हैं, यदि वे अपनी खुद की जिंदगी की जिम्मेदारी नहीं लेते हैं और केवल भीड़ का अनुसरण करते हैं और उनके साथ ही अनियंत्रित अनादर के साथ पवित्र आत्मा के कार्य की बहुत ज्यादा आलोचना करते हैं, यदि वे अपने खुद के विवेक से मतलब नहीं रखते हैं और बस आंखें बंद करके पूजा करते हैं, सिर्फ पुरोहितों व एल्डर्स की अफवाहों व कपट को सुनते हैं और उनकी आज्ञा मानते हैं, यदि वे धार्मिकता की ओर मुड़ने और शैतान के बल के नियंत्रण से निकलने और सच्चे मार्ग को खोजने और परमेश्वर की आवाज को सुनने में सक्षम नहीं हैं, यदि वे ये सब काम नहीं कर सकते हैं, तो फिर वे कभी भी प्रभु की वापसी के लिए तैयार नहीं हो पाएंगे, वे कभी भी रचनाकार के अनुग्रह की गवाही नहीं कर पाएंगे, उन्हें कभी भी परमेश्वर को जानने का मौका नहीं मिलेगा, वे बस इतिहास में एक कठपुतली बन कर रह जाएंगे, शैतान के लिए के लिए बलि की एक वस्तु, और वे अंधकार में डूब जाएंगे जहां वे खत्म होने तक विलाप करेंगे और अपने दांत पीसेंगे, ठीक उस तरह जैसे धर्मग्रंथ में बताया गया है: “इस कारण यहोवा इस्राएल में से सिर और पूँछ को, खजूर की डालियों और सरकंडे को, एक ही दिन में काट डालेगा। पुरनिया और प्रतिष्ठित पुरुष तो सिर हैं, और झूठी बातें सिखानेवाला नबी पूँछ है; क्योंकि जो इन लोगों की अगुवाई करते हैं वे इनको भटका देते हैं, और जिनकी अगुवाई होती है वे नष्ट हो जाते हैं” (यशायाह 9:14-16)।
हमें यह पता होना चाहिए कि परमेश्वर किसी भी ऐसे को नहीं चुनेगा जिसमें सत्य की प्यास न हो, जो परमेश्वर में अपने विश्वास को लेकर स्पष्ट न हो, जिसके पास अपने विचारों पर कोई निर्धारित रवैया न हो, जो ताकत व प्रभाव को पूजता हो या परिस्थितियों का फायदा उठाता है। इसके विपरीत, परमेश्वर उन कुंवारो को खोजते, उन्हें निपुण और शुद्ध करते हैं और उन्हें सुविधा देते हैं जो परमेश्वर को महान मान कर सम्मान करते हैं, जिनका मन साफ है, जो शुद्ध आज्ञाकारिता रखते हैं, जो सच्चे मायनों में परमेश्वर के लिए इच्छा रखते हैं और उन्हें खोजते हैं। यह एक बहुविध तथ्य है! क्या यह हो सकता है कि इस्त्राएलियों द्वारा बहाया गया खून तुम्हें यह सबक देने के लिए काफी नहीं था?

An increasingly popular target among amateur astronomers, NGC 772 is a somewhat unique spiral galaxy which seems to be disturbed by one of its companions, NGC 770. It’s also the 78th entry in the Atlas of Peculiar Galaxies (Arp 78).
Hubble took this closeup in part of a study to measure the masses of black holes in galaxies.
When I was in primary school, I hit my astronomy obsession full-speed. Part of that consisted of a ridiculous desire to learn about every known space object - I really didn’t have a full grasp of scale yet. Though the goal was outlandish, it actually helped me learn quite a bit rather quickly. By the sixth grade I was pretty familiar with approximately the first 2000 objects of the New General Catalogue (a shift in interests has led to me forgetting quite a bit that was never useful) and NGC 772 was one of my favourite. At around that time I had even amassed a digital collection of almost every published Hubble image, but it would still be a while until I learned about the public archive.
I was never really sure what I was going to do with all of this information, but I knew that above all else, it fed my curiosity and greatly intrigued me. I’ve felt similarly about other things in my life, but astronomy has been a pretty consistent interest of mine. My high school is without an astronomy program, which is unfortunate.
I don’t think I did this data justice and I strongly encourage any other processors to check it out (this goes for pretty much everything I share). I feel a little bad about being the first to process it, but it’s still exciting to find stuff.

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

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

Il Regno dei Cieli è in realtà sulla terra
di Chen Bo, Cina
La più grande aspirazione di noi credenti è riuscire a entrare nel Regno dei Cieli e godere dell’eterna beatitudine che il Signore ha concesso all’uomo. Ogni volta che sentivo un pastore dire in un sermone che il posto che il Signore preparerà per noi in futuro è nell’alto dei cieli, che ci saranno campi dorati e mura di giada, e gemme che brilleranno ovunque, che noi potremo mangiare il frutto dell’albero della vita e bere l’acqua del fiume della vita, che non ci saranno più dolore, lacrime o afflizione e tutti saremo liberi e liberati, provavo un moto incredibile di emozione e di gioia. Era un luogo a cui anelavo tantissimo, e la mia vita di duro lavoro e di sofferenza sulla terra mi lasciava svigorita nel cuore. E così andai in giro a predicare il Vangelo e mi adoperai con entusiasmo per il Signore; diffondevo il Vangelo e fondavo Chiese, e non mi fermavo mai a riprendere fiato, per quanto doloroso o difficile fosse. Soprattutto da quando ho saputo che siamo negli ultimi giorni e che il Signore sarebbe tornato presto per portarci tutti nella nostra casa celeste, ho lavorato e mi sono adoperata ancor più proattivamente.
Un giorno, mi recai a casa di mia sorella per sapere come stava nostra madre. Prima di andarmene, mia sorella mi diede un libro, raccomandandosi che lo leggessi con attenzione. Pensai tra me e me: “Il libro che mi ha dato mia sorella è di sicuro un’opera spirituale. Il caso vuole che il mio spirito si senta molto inaridito in questo momento; non ho la sensazione che il Signore sia con me, né mi sento illuminata dalla lettura della Bibbia. Al mio ritorno, dovrò leggere questo libro con attenzione. Forse mi darà qualcosa”. Dopo essere tornata a casa, aprii il libro, cominciai a leggere e, prima che me ne rendessi conto, venni risucchiata dalle sue parole. Più leggevo, più lo apprezzavo; più leggevo, più sentivo che c’era luce in quelle parole, che esse erano illuminate dallo Spirito Santo e che non era possibile che potessero essere pronunciate da una persona normale. Da quando ho letto quel libro, sono giunta a comprendere alcune verità che prima, leggendo la Bibbia, non capivo e nella mia mente sento chiarezza e gioia. Sono disposta a pregare per avvicinarmi al Signore e la mia fede si è rafforzata. La mia condizione spirituale è migliorata sempre più. Pensai: “Solo l’opera dello Spirito Santo può dare all’uomo fede e forza, provvedere al suo spirito e nutrirlo. Le parole di questo libro provengono certamente dallo Spirito Santo”. Di conseguenza, la mattina, la prima cosa che faccio quando mi sveglio è leggere questo libro.
Un giorno, aprii il libro e lessi il seguente passo: “Dio che entra nel riposo significa che Egli non compirà più il Proprio lavoro di salvezza dell’umanità. L’umanità che accede al riposo significa che l’intera umanità vivrà nella luce di Dio e sotto la Sua benedizione; non ci sarà alcuna corruzione di Satana, né verrà perpetrata alcuna ingiustizia. Gli uomini vivranno una normale esistenza sulla terra e Dio Si prenderà cura di loro” (“Dio e l’uomo entreranno nel riposo insieme” in “La Parola appare nella carne”). Mi fermai in quel punto. Il mio cuore sussultò e pensai tra me e me: “In futuro l’uomo vivrà sulla terra? Il Signore Gesù non ha promesso che in futuro vivremo in cielo? Perché queste parole parlano dello stare sulla terra? Come potrebbe essere? Sto fraintendendo?” Quindi, rilessi attentamente il passo, e le parole affermavano davvero che in futuro l’uomo avrebbe vissuto sulla terra. Allora, cosa significa realmente ciò? Quello non bastava. Dovevo capire cosa, in effetti, significasse. Perciò, continuai a leggere: “Dio ha la destinazione propria di Dio e l’uomo quella propria dell’uomo. Durante il Suo riposo, Dio continuerà a guidare l’esistenza dell’intera umanità sulla terra. Nella luce di Dio, l’uomo renderà lode all’unico vero Dio in cielo. […] Quando l’umanità entra nel riposo, significa che l’uomo è divenuto autentica creazione; l’umanità venererà Dio dalla terra e condurrà una normale esistenza umana. Gli uomini non saranno più disobbedienti nei confronti di Dio né Gli resisteranno; essi faranno ritorno all’originaria vita di Adamo ed Eva” (“Dio e l’uomo entreranno nel riposo insieme” in “La Parola appare nella carne”). Più leggevo, più mi sentivo confusa: “L’uomo adorerà Dio dalla terra? Come potrà avvenire? Nella Bibbia non si dice forse che ciò avrà luogo in cielo? Come potrebbe essere sulla terra?” Mi precipitai a prendere la mia Bibbia, aprendola su Giovanni 14:2-3, e lessi il punto in cui il Signore Gesù afferma: “Nella casa del Padre Mio ci sono molte dimore; se no, vi avrei detto forse che Io vado a prepararvi un luogo? Quando sarò andato e vi avrò preparato un luogo, tornerò e vi accoglierò presso di Me, affinché dove sono Io, siate anche voi”. Il Signore Gesù dice chiaramente che la Sua resurrezione e ascesa in cielo avevano lo scopo di preparare un posto per noi, affinché la nostra destinazione fosse in cielo. Questa è la promessa del Signore. Pensai tra me e me: “Ciò che questo libro sta dicendo è diverso da ciò che dice il Signore; quindi, non posso continuare a leggerlo”. Dopo aver chiuso il libro, mi ritrovai in uno stato mentale di grande confusione; non sapevo cosa fosse giusto e, quindi, pregai insistentemente il Signore: “Oh Signore, ti prego di guidarmi e di condurmi. Cosa dovrei fare? Dovrei leggere questo libro o no? Oh Signore, ti prego di illuminarmi e di guidarmi…” Dopo aver pregato, pensai a come, dopo aver letto quel libro, mi ero sentita più vicina nel mio rapporto con il Signore, più entusiasta della mia fede in Lui e che il mio spirito stava ricevendo nutrimento: “Se mettessi giù questo libro e smettessi di leggerlo, tornerei alla mia precedente condizione, quella in cui il mio spirito si sentiva inaridito”. Poiché quel libro mi dava moltissimo, poiché potevo essere certa che provenisse dallo Spirito Santo, che non potesse essere frainteso, dato che proveniva dallo Spirito Santo, sebbene quelle parole non fossero conformi alle mie concezioni, non dovevo rinunciarvi né esimermi dal leggerle per nessun motivo. Mentre ci pensavo su, decisi che avrei fatto meglio a continuare a leggere, prima di decidere.
Quindi, presi di nuovo in mano il libro e continuai a leggere: “Il luogo di riposo dell’uomo è sulla terra, mentre il luogo del riposo di Dio è in cielo. Mentre l’uomo venera Dio nel riposo, egli vivrà sulla terra, e mentre Dio guida quel che resta dell’umanità nel riposo, Egli la guiderà dal cielo, non dalla terra” (“Dio e l’uomo entreranno nel riposo insieme” in “La Parola appare nella carne”). Continuai a rifletterci nella mia mente: “Questo passo ora dice che il luogo del riposo di Dio è in cielo e che, mentre l’uomo riposa, adorerà Dio sulla terra. Potrebbe darsi che il luogo di riposo dell’uomo sia sulla terra, come affermano queste parole? È impossibile! Il Signore Gesù ha già affermato che noi saremo ovunque si trovi il Signore e il Signore Gesù venne resuscitato e ascese in cielo, per cui anche noi ascenderemo sicuramente in cielo!” Pensai agli anni passati, a quante strade che avevo percorso per il Signore, a quante sofferenze avevo sopportato. Non era stato forse allo scopo di ascendere al cielo e non dover più sopportare le sofferenze sulla terra? Se è davvero come afferma quel libro, ovvero che in futuro l’uomo continuerà a vivere sulla terra, allora le mie speranze non verranno forse vanificate? Rimasi distesa sul letto, come paralizzata. Mi sentivo debole dalla testa ai piedi. Più pensavo alla cosa, più non riuscivo a calmarmi. Perciò, per trovare una soluzione, mi precipitai a casa di mia sorella.
Quando arrivai a casa di mia sorella, trovai una donna di mezza età e, quando mia sorella ci presentò, venni a sapere che si trattava di sorella Li. Dopo poco, parlai con loro dei miei pensieri successivi alla lettura di quel libro. Dopo aver ascoltato, sorella Li si rivolse a me, dicendo: “Sorella, tutti coloro che, tra noi, credono nel Signore pensano che il Signore Gesù abbia promesso di preparare un posto per l’uomo e che, ovunque Egli Si trovi, ci chiederà di andare lì. Il Signore è asceso al cielo; quindi, in futuro, quando il Signore tornerà, certamente ci accoglierà in cielo affinché viviamo insieme a Lui. Ma qualcuno di noi si è chiesto se questo tipo di fantasia e ragionamento sia attendibile? Se fosse come ce lo immaginiamo, cioè che il Signore verrà e ci porterà in cielo, le parole della preghiera al Signore ‘Venga il tuo regno; sia fatta la tua volontà, come in cielo, anche in terra’ (Matteo 6:10) e la profezia nell’Apocalisse ‘Ecco il tabernacolo di Dio con gli uomini! Egli abiterà con loro, essi saranno suoi popoli e Dio stesso sarà con loro e sarà il loro Dio’ (Apocalisse 21:3) non verrebbero forse vanificate? Come potrebbero queste cose svolgersi come predetto? Se la destinazione finale che Dio ci assegna fosse in cielo, quando Egli creò in origine l’uomo, che senso aveva farci vivere sulla terra?” Non ero affatto convinta e replicai: “Nonostante questi testi sacri affermino tali cose, il Signore Gesù Stesso disse: ‘Io vado a prepararvi un luogo; e quando sarò andato e v’avrò preparato un luogo, tornerò, e v’accoglierò presso di Me, affinché dove son Io, siate anche voi’ (Giovanni 14:2-3). Dopo essere risorto, il Signore Gesù ascese al cielo ed è qui che Egli dice che andrà a preparare un posto per noi. Egli afferma che, ovunque Si trovi, anche noi potremmo stare. Perciò, questo prova che Dio ci promise che saremmo ascesi al cielo per ottenere la vita eterna, e non che avremmo ottenuto la vita eterna sulla terra. Questa è una cosa che nessuno può negare!” Sorella Li continuò a parlare pazientemente: “Sorella, è vero che il Signore sta preparando un posto per coloro che credono in Lui, ma tale posto si trova di fatto sulla terra o in cielo? Il Signore non dice così nelle Sue parole; quindi, su cosa ci basiamo quando affermiamo che il posto che Egli sta preparando per noi è in cielo? Si tratta di fatto della promessa del Signore o della nostra personale concezione e fantasia? Per coloro tra noi che credono in Dio, tutte le cose dovrebbero basarsi sulla parola del Signore; le nostre personali concezioni e fantasie non andrebbero mescolate alla parola del Signore, per poi dire che si tratta del significato del Signore. Ciò non equivale forse a fare affidamento sulle nostre idee per spiegare la parola del Signore? Non significa forse distorcere la parola del Signore? Quindi, non possiamo fare affidamento sulle fantasie che abbiamo in testa, sui nostri pensieri e sulle nostre preferenze per spiegare la parola del Signore. Se così fosse, commetteremmo un errore. Nella Genesi 2:7-8 si afferma: ‘E Jahvè Dio formò l’uomo dalla polvere della terra, gli soffiò nelle narici un alito vitale, e l’uomo divenne un’anima vivente. E Jahvè Dio piantò un giardino in Eden, in oriente, e quivi pose l’uomo che aveva formato’. È evidente che al principio Dio creò l’uomo sulla terra e che, prima di crearlo, creò tutte le cose, per preparare un ambiente adatto alla vita dell’uomo. Quindi, possiamo constatare che è volontà di Dio farci vivere sulla terra. Inoltre, nel ‘Padre nostro’, Egli ci fa pregare Dio affinché il Suo Regno venga in terra. Nel Libro dell’Apocalisse è profetizzato: ‘Il regno del mondo è passato al nostro Signore e al Suo Cristo ed egli regnerà nei secoli dei secoli’ (Apocalisse 11:15). ‘Il tabernacolo di Dio con gli uomini! Egli abiterà con loro’ (Apocalisse 21:3). Da queste righe della Scrittura e della profezia possiamo constatare che il posto che Dio sta preparando per noi è sulla terra e non in cielo, e che la nostra futura destinazione finale è in terra, e non in cielo…”. La spiegazione di sorella Li andava completamente contro le mie concezioni. Semplicemente, non ascoltavo ciò che diceva. Mi alzai in piedi e le dissi con rabbia: “Smettila di parlare! Per anni, ho corso, mi sono spesa e ho sofferto per il Signore, per poter ascendere al cielo! Ho aspettato con impazienza per tutto il tempo che il Signore mi riportasse nella dimora dei cieli, così da non dover più patire in terra. Tu dici che la nostra destinazione finale è in terra. Non posso accettarlo”. Dopo aver detto questo, mi voltai per andarmene. La mia sorella minore si precipitò, cercando di parlarmi: “Sorellina, come puoi essere così testarda? Il punto di vista cui ti aggrappi è corretto? Il Signore dice: ‘Io vado a prepararvi un luogo’. Tu non conosci il vero significato di queste parole e stai mantenendo le tue personali opinioni. Non è da sciocchi? Questo non è il genere di atteggiamento che le persone che cercano la verità dovrebbero avere! Il Signore Gesù che stiamo aspettando è già ritornato: Dio Onnipotente è il ritorno del Signore Gesù! Quel libro che ti diedi da leggere contiene le espressioni personali e le parole di Dio! Il Signore che abbiamo aspettato ogni giorno, affinché ci venisse a prendere, ora è tornato. Dobbiamo ascoltare con attenzione. Non dobbiamo assolutamente lasciarci sfuggire questa rarissima opportunità!”
Ero stupefatta nel sentire mia sorella pronunciare quelle parole. Non riuscivo a credere a quello che avevo appena sentito: “Il Signore è tornato? È vero?” Quindi mia sorella disse: “Non eri tu, prima, che dicevi che le parole di quel libro provengono dallo Spirito Santo? Quando lo leggevi, sentivi di aver ricevuto moltissimo, di aver avuto l’opera dello Spirito Santo e che il tuo rapporto con Dio era diventato più stretto. Ora pensa a questa cosa: oltre alla parola del Signore, chi altri parla in modo tale da sortire un effetto del genere? Ora il Signore è tornato per operare e per pronunciare nuove parole e noi possiamo godere della dolcezza delle parole di Dio. Se non cerchiamo né esaminiamo, se ci limitiamo ad aggrapparci alle nostre concezioni e fantasie, nonché al significato letterale della Bibbia, senza lasciarci andare, allora alla fine ci rovineremo. Ai loro tempi, i farisei con una buona conoscenza della Bibbia si aggrappavano alle parole di quest’ultima: non cercavano affatto di domandarsi se la loro comprensione della Bibbia fosse corretta o se fosse conforme alla volontà di Dio, o meno. Al contrario, pensavano che un uomo che non si chiamava Messia non fosse il Salvatore che sarebbe venuto; semplicemente, non esaminavano se la via del Signore Gesù potesse offrire la vita all’uomo e mostrargli un sentiero per fare pratica. Si limitavano ad aggrapparsi ostinatamente alle loro concezioni e fantasie e rifiutavano ciecamente la salvezza del Signore Gesù, commettendo infine il crimine odioso di inchiodare il Signore alla croce. Non possiamo seguire le orme dei farisei e percorrere il loro sentiero di opposizione a Dio!” Dopo aver ascoltato le parole di mia sorella, pensai tra me e me: “Ciò che mia sorella sta dicendo è ragionevole. La parola del Signore è l’unica soluzione, quando lo spirito di un uomo è inaridito”. Ripensai a come la condizione del mio spirito sia andata via via migliorando da quando leggo le parole di quel libro, a come esso mi abbia donato la fede in Dio e a come mi faccia sentire che Dio è in mia presenza. “Sento persino di comprendere alcune verità. Potrebbe darsi che le parole di quel libro siano davvero il Signore che torna a parlare? Il ritorno del Signore è un’occasione importante. Farei meglio a non rifiutare e giudicare alla cieca; devo sforzarmi di esaminare e cercare, non posso essere come quei farisei che non cercavano la verità, che si aggrappavano alle loro concezioni in opposizione a Dio!” In quel momento mi sentii piacevolmente sorpresa e spaventata allo stesso tempo. Ero piacevolmente sorpresa perché credevo nel Signore e attendevo ansiosamente che Egli tornasse per accettarmi nel Regno dei Cieli, dove potevo vivere libera dalle preoccupazioni, senza più dover affrontare difficoltà in terra, e oggi apprendevo la notizia del ritorno del Signore. Questa è davvero una grandissima e gioiosa opportunità. Ero spaventata perché, se Dio Onnipotente è il Signore ritornato, allora il mio sogno di attendere che il Signore mi accetti nel Regno dei Cieli verrebbe infranto… In cuor mio sentivo emozioni contrastanti di ogni genere; non sapevo cosa provavo. Mi sentivo impotente. Tutto quello che potevo fare era rivolgermi al Signore in preghiera: “Oh Signore! Ho aspettato con ansia ogni giorno che Tu mi portassi nella Tua dimora celeste, ma dicono che il posto che hai preparato per la mia destinazione finale sia qui sulla terra. Sono davvero incapace di affrontare questa realtà. Non voglio davvero sperimentare questo genere di difficoltà sulla terra. Oh Signore! Sento un grande dolore in questo momento in cuor mio: ti prego di aiutarmi e di guidarmi nel sentiero innanzi a me”. Dopo aver pregato, pensai alle parole del Signore Gesù, quando Egli afferma: “Beati i poveri in spirito, perché di loro è il Regno dei Cieli” (Matteo 5:3). È vero! Il Signore apprezza e permette l’ingresso nel Regno dei Cieli soltanto a coloro che sono poveri di spirito e che cercano la verità. Io dovrei essere una persona povera di spirito. Solo ascoltando attentamente la loro spiegazione mi conformerò alla volontà del Signore.
In quel momento sorella Li disse: “Il Signore ha detto: ‘Beati i puri di cuore, perché vedranno Dio’ (Matteo 5:8). Mentre accogliamo il ritorno del Signore, dobbiamo ascoltare la Sua parola e agire come persone pure di cuore. Sebbene l’opera che Dio svolge oggi non si conformi alle nostre concezioni e fantasie, tutto ciò che Dio fa è bene, tutto è a vantaggio dell’uomo e in mezzo a tutto vi è la volontà di Dio, dove la verità può essere cercata. Se non lo capiamo perfettamente, dobbiamo per prima cosa farci da parte e sforzarci di cercare la verità, in modo da poter ricevere l’illuminazione di Dio e comprendere la Sua volontà. Sorella, apri il tuo cuore e parla delle cose che ancora non comprendi, e potremo cercare insieme incontrandoci e parlandone”. Sentivo che ciò che sorella Li aveva detto era sensato; dovevo calmarmi e cercare; quindi dissi: “Sorella, c’è una cosa che non comprendo: perché la nostra destinazione finale non è in cielo, ma è qui in terra?” Sorella Li trovò Giovanni 3:13: “Nessuno è salito in cielo, se non colui che è disceso dal cielo: il Figlio dell’uomo” e Isaia 66:1 “Il cielo è il Mio trono e la terra è lo sgabello dei Miei piedi” e mi diede questi due passi da leggere. Quindi ne spiegò il significato. Grazie alla spiegazione della sorella, nella mia mente sentivo che era tutto improvvisamente chiaro. Anch’io conoscevo quei passi delle Scritture; allora, perché non vi avevo mai riflettuto prima? Il Signore dice chiaramente che, a eccezione del Figlio dell’uomo che scese dal cielo, nessun uomo può ascendere al cielo, poiché il cielo è il trono di Dio e la terra il Suo poggiapiedi; quindi, come potrebbe l’uomo meritare di ascendere al cielo? Dio creò l’uomo sulla terra e fece in modo che vivesse lì. Dal giorno in cui Dio creò l’uomo, l’uomo ha abitato la terra generazione dopo generazione, aumentando gradualmente di numero. Tutta l’opera che Dio ha svolto per salvare l’uomo ha avuto luogo anch’essa in terra. Si trattava di qualcosa che Dio aveva prestabilito da molto tempo. È un qualcosa che nessuno può cambiare. La sorella tenne poi una condivisione sulla Bibbia, su come il Signore ha detto che avrebbe preparato un posto per noi. Ci spiegò che ciò si riferiva alla manifestazione e all’opera del Dio incarnato sulla terra negli ultimi giorni, e che Egli aveva predestinato che noi saremmo nati negli ultimi giorni, che avremmo sentito la voce di Dio, saremmo stati portati dinanzi al trono di Dio, avremmo accettato il giudizio e la purificazione di Dio degli ultimi giorni, e alla fine saremmo stati condotti nel Regno di Dio. Questo è il vero significato delle parole “dove sono Io, siate anche voi” (Giovanni 14:3). Sembra che il Regno di Dio sia in realtà in terra e che la destinazione finale dell’umanità sia sulla terra e non in cielo! Avevo vissuto tutto il tempo all’interno delle mie personali concezioni e fantasie; stabilii che Dio sarebbe ritornato per portarmi a vivere in cielo, ma ciò non è affatto conforme alla volontà del Signore; ciò non è conforme ai fatti! Tuttavia, non ero comunque ancora pronta a vivere questo genere di vita sulla terra, dove ero afflitta da Satana. Così, poco dopo, spiegai i pensieri che avevo in testa a sorella Li.
Dopo avermi ascoltata, sorella Li aprì il libro “La Parola appare nella carne”, e mi lesse un passo tratto dalla parola di Dio Onnipotente: “La vita nel riposo è una vita senza guerra, senza lordura, senza il persistere dell’ingiustizia. Ciò significa che manca del tormento di Satana (qui ‘Satana’ si riferisce alle forze ostili), della corruzione di Satana, così come dell’invasione di qualsiasi forza che si opponga a Dio. Ogni cosa procede secondo la propria natura e rende lode al Signore della creazione. Cielo e terra sono totalmente tranquilli. Questa è la vita dell’umanità nel riposo. […] Dopo che Dio e l’uomo saranno entrati nel riposo, Satana non esisterà più e, come Satana, così pure i malvagi non esisteranno più. Prima che Dio e l’uomo entrino nel riposo, i malvagi che un tempo perseguitarono Dio sulla terra e i nemici che Gli disobbedirono sulla terra saranno già stati distrutti; saranno stati distrutti dai grandi cataclismi degli ultimi giorni. Dopo che quei malvagi individui saranno stati completamente distrutti, la terra non conoscerà mai più il tormento di Satana. L’umanità otterrà completa salvezza e solo allora l’opera di Dio avrà termine definitivamente. Questi sono i prerequisiti perché Dio e l’uomo entrino nel riposo” (“Dio e l’uomo entreranno nel riposo insieme” in “La Parola appare nella carne”).
Attraverso la lettura delle parole di Dio Onnipotente giunsi a comprendere che, nonostante in futuro le nostre vite saranno ancora sulla terra, quando Dio completerà la Sua fase finale dell’opera di salvezza dell’umanità, Satana verrà distrutto e le nostre vite sulla terra non verranno più minacciate da Satana, né noi avremo preoccupazioni o faticheremo, verseremo lacrime o sospireremo. Sarà esattamente come quando Adamo ed Eva vivevano nel Giardino dell’Eden. Saremo liberi di adorare Dio, vivendo una vita lieta e benedetta in cui Dio è con l’uomo. Questa è la destinazione finale dell’umanità e questa è l’ultima cosa che Dio realizzerà nella Sua opera degli ultimi giorni. È davvero straordinario! Proprio in quell’istante tirai un sospiro di sollievo: “Chi potrebbe parlare della destinazione finale dell’umanità con una tale chiarezza? Chi potrebbe pianificare la fine dell’umanità? Solo Dio potrebbe farlo!” All’interno della parola di Dio Onnipotente riconobbi la voce di Dio e capii che l’opera di Dio Onnipotente è Dio che appare per operare! Mi ero finalmente sbarazzata delle concezioni nella mia mente e accettai con gioia l’opera di Dio Onnipotente degli ultimi giorni, ritornando innanzi al trono di Dio.

Vol 41 Issue 50
Over 120 years of combined service to local Masonic Lodge
by Chris Daponte
FERGUS:
Many people, influenced by historical half-truths and recent pop culture references like Dan Brown’s novel The Lost Symbol, still view Freemasonry as a mystical, secretive sect with odd customs.
But two long-time members of Fergus’ Mercer Lodge (#347) say most Masonic stories have been blown out of proportion and the organization is known more today for offering fellowship and community service.
“It’s really not a secret,” said David Beattie, a member of the Mercer Lodge for over 60 years.
He smiled and continued, “I was once told, ‘If it was a secret organization, you wouldn’t know who its members were’.”
John Carter, who was recently named the Mercer Lodge’s historian, agreed and said much has changed since he first joined the Fergus lodge over 50 years ago.
“There’s a lot less secrets now than when I joined,” Carter said.
At that time, he explained, Freemasons did not even want photographs taken of their members or the lodge, and women were strictly forbidden from entering Masonic Lodges.
Freemason events and ceremonies now often appear in local newspapers. And women are regularly welcomed in the buildings today, particularly as part of the affiliated group Order of the Eastern Star (although Freemasons have retained the men-only membership requirements).
The Mercer Lodge in Fergus today boasts around 80 members. In Ontario, there are approximately 64,000 Masons belonging to some 630 lodges in 46 districts, governed by a Grand Lodge in Hamilton.
According to the Grand Lodge’s website, Masonry is “the world’s oldest and largest fraternal organization.” Worldwide, there are more than four million Masons, about half of whom call North America home.
The website states the “singular purpose” of Freemasonry is “to make good men better” and to teach members “each person has an obligation to make a difference for good.”
One of the main strengths of Freemasonry is helping others. Masonic Lodges in Ontario donate in excess of $3-million annually.
The exact origin of Freemasonry is unclear, though the earliest Masonic text has been dated to the year 1390 and the first Grand Lodge was established in England in 1717.
The Mercer Lodge officially opened in April 1876, with the help of members at the Irvine Lodge in Elora, which was founded in 1868.
Named after William Mercer, a renowned past Grand Master, the Fergus lodge originally met in the Odd Fellows hall in town. In 1879, the Fergus group began renting the upstairs of the former town office, and in 1900 it moved to the third floor of the Argo Block at the corner of St. Andrews and St. David Streets. It remained there until 1961, when the current building on St. Andrew Street East was opened.
A lodge is the basic organizational unit of Freemasonry. Each lodge must hold monthly meetings and elect, initiate and promote members and officers.
“Every member is encouraged to attend the meetings,” said Carter.
Like any organization, Masonic Lodges have formal business, including annual general meetings and committees, charity funds and other reports, including those dealing with financial and membership details.
“I found out a few things I didn’t know about the activities,” Beattie said of his early days as a Freemason.
Many are unaware that the number and type of activities is individual to each lodge, and each can develop and observe its own traditions.
Carter said the Mercer Lodge in Fergus has been particularly active with local charities. It is a regular contributor to various fundraisers for the Groves Memorial Hospital, including the most recent CT scanner campaign, and the lodge has also sponsored blood donor clinics in town, he explained.
This year, the lodge is raising funds specifically for prostate cancer research, Carter said, adding it will also continue its annual support of The Hospital for Sick Children in Toronto, as well as the Child Identification Program (CHIP).
The latter is a charitable initiative by North American Masonic Lodges to aid in the identification and recovery of missing children. The program is supported monetarily at the Grand Lodge level, and staffed by volunteers from subordinate lodges, as well as law enforcement and dental professionals.
The CHIP program allows parents to create a free kit of identifying materials for their children, including a physical description, fingerprints, video, dental imprint and DNA sample.
The purpose of the program, which has been lauded by various groups and organizations, is to provide critical information to the public and to law enforcement officials in the event the child goes missing.
In recent years the CHIP program has become somewhat synonymous with Freemasons, but it is certainly not the only charitable endeavour of the organization.
In fact, Carter said, many men join nowadays specifically as another way to become more active in their own community. In that respect, not a lot has changed for the Freemasons, he added - they have always prided themselves on helping others.
Another aspect that has remained relatively unchanged is becoming a Freemason is a little more difficult than joining other organizations.
Contrary to common misconception, becoming a member is not by invitation only. A man must express his interest in joining and then must be sponsored by two current members.
Then, a small committee of Freemasons conducts an investigation of sorts to ensure the prospective member is of good character. He must also meet other criteria, which can change depending on the jurisdiction but generally includes:
- joining of his own free will;
- the belief in “a Supreme Being” (the form of which is left to interpretation by the candidate), though officials are quick to point out Freemasonry is neither a religion nor a substitute for one;
- being at least the minimum age (usually from 18 to 25 years old) although in some places the son of a Mason may join earlier than others;
- be of good morals and of good reputation;
- be of sound mind and body; and
- be able to provide character references.
Once selected for initiation, prospective members then face a secret ballot election, using white and black marbles. Depending on the jurisdiction, the number of adverse votes needed to “black ball” someone can range from one to three.
There are three general degrees Freemasons can obtain:
- Entered Apprentice, which members receive upon initiation;
- Fellow Craft, an intermediate degree, involved with learning; and
- Master Mason, also known as the “third degree” and a necessity for participation in most aspects of Masonry.
The degrees represent stages of personal development and are decided by a number of factors and requirements that can differ for each individual.
There are further degrees - for example, in either the Scottish or York Rites - names with higher numbers that are considered supplements to the Master Mason degree.
Carter himself obtained a standing of 32 degrees (out of 33) in the Scottish Rite.
“Outstanding” members can also be elected or appointed to the Grand Lodge of Ontario, he explained.
Beattie, who turns 97 on Christmas Eve, still vividly recalls when he joined the Mercer Lodge.
“It was April 7, 1944,” he said with a smile.
At the time, he farmed land in old Nichol Township just south of Ennotville and also served as clerk at various farm auction sales.
“It was kind of interesting work,” said Beattie, who was friends with several Freemasons.
“I knew quite a few people that belonged,” he said, noting he joined mostly for the fellowship.
He held several positions at the club, including almost two decades as treasurer, and he also served as district secretary for the Freemasons. He was also Master of the Mercer Lodge in 1955, when Carter became a member.
Carter, born in the Toronto area in 1922, was also a farmer for many years in former West Garafraxa Township. He served seven years on council there, including one as reeve, and later served two terms on Fergus council, prior to amalgamation in 1999.
Carter, who also worked as a property assessor for 23 years, was interested in Freemasonry at a young age, after his father expressed interest in joining.
“He encouraged me,” said Carter, who also had several friends at the lodge.
“I thought it was an interesting organization. I had heard a little about it.”
Looking back on over 120 years of combined membership as Freemasons, both men cite the opening of the new Mercer Lodge on St. Andrew Street in Fergus as a major accomplishment.
“You could hardly get in the lodge,” Carter said of the 1961 official opening.
Almost 270 attended that ceremony, which included the dedication of the hall by past Grand Master Harry Martin.
Carter, who was Master of the Mercer Lodge the year of the opening, said rising rent and three flights of stairs at the lodge’s previous home (above a hardware store at the corner of St. Andrew and St. David Streets) necessitated the purchase of a new home.
Much of the work on the new building was completed by local Freemasons, including one contractor who helped in excavation and laying the foundation. Thanks to the help of members, the total cost for the lodge was a modest $22,000, said Carter.
He and Beattie shared several laughs as they recalled the good times they’ve had through Freemasonry over the years.
The pair, who first met on a softball field as youths, have a remarkable amount in common. Both were one of two children (with one sister), both grew up close to Fergus, and both were farmers and never married.
And, not surprisingly, both highly recommend joining Freemasonry to any local men with an interest in doing so.
“I was never sorry [I joined],” said Beattie.
Carter agreed. “That was a common phrase - ‘you’ll never be sorry’.”

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]

documenta fifteen18 June 2022 – 25 September 2022 in Kasselruangrupa[22]
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

Our Lady of Lourdes & St Joseph, Leigh on Sea, Essex
I passed OLoL&SJ (apologies for the acronym) on my way to St Clement and had to stop. This RC church had fallen off my radar and would have been missed had it not been so arresting.
Built in the 1920's to the design of the parish priest, Fr FW Gilbert, it stands as his personal testament to God. Full of good period glass, a very Catholic reredos, lectern and rood; unusually a SE tower but, to my mind, the most exceptional feature is the Lady Chapel which is a scaled replica of Lourdes.
A rich priest's homage to Gothic architecture with a distinct Catholic twist - I wish this was my parish church!
Neither Pevsner nor Mee covered it (inherent anti Catholicism at work?) so Taking Stock instead:
An idiosyncratic Gothic church of the 1920s, very much a personal work by the parish priest Fr F. W. Gilbert, but closely following the design of Charles Nicholson’s church of St Alban at Westcliff-on-Sea. The church was sympathetically extended in the 1960s. The interior is rich in fittings, some designed by Fr Gilbert.
The original church (now the parish hall) began life as a timber-framed, corrugated iron drill hall, originally built for the Essex Volunteers in 1900 under the supervision of Major Burles and purchased in 1913. The site of the present church was purchased by the Rev. F.W. Gilbert in 1924, using donations and his private money. It appears that Fr Gilbert acted as his own architect, his design borrowing heavily from that of the Anglican church of St Alban the Martyr at Westcliff-on-Sea, built in 1898-1908 from designs by Nicholson & Corlette. The Gilbert family promised £2,000 once building work commenced. The contract price was £12,234. The builders were Messrs Marshall & Smith of Grays but Fr Gilbert acted as his own clerk of works, using local labour, including unemployed men from Grays. The foundation stone was laid on 7 October 1924 and the church opened in September 1925. The presbytery was built in 1925.
The church was sympathetically extended in 1965-66 by Burles, Newton & Partners, in the same style and materials; the west wall was moved twenty feet further out to create a choir gallery, west door and porch and a baptistery with organ chamber above. Proposals to replace the old hall with a new and larger building were prepared in 2007 but have not yet been implemented.
The church is a large and handsome structure in a free Gothic style. The walls are faced with random rubble with stone dressings. Apparently much of the stone was quarried near Glasgow and was originally used as ballast in lighters intended for the Gallipoli campaign, which were later bought by a local ship owner, who donated the stone for the building of the church. The roof is covered in plain tiles. On plan the church comprises a long nave and sanctuary under a continuous roof swept down over north and south aisles, southwest porch, northwest organ chamber, southeast double transept and southeast tower. The gabled west end is Burles & Newton’s work of the 1960s and has a broad straight-headed doorway flanked by small trefoiled windows with a large six-light traceried window above. On the north side is a tall transeptal organ chamber and then the low side wall of the north aisle with three pairs of small trefoiled windows. On the south side is a small projecting porch and then the low side wall of the south aisle, a double transept with three-light traceried windows in the gabled ends and then the bold square south east tower. The tower is of three stages with a traceried two-light window on the south side of the lowest stage and pairs of small openings in the two stages above. The tower has a single large diagonal buttress at the southeast corner, crenellated flint-faced parapets and a tiled spirelet. The east end wall of the sanctuary is articulated with three round-headed blind arches. This wall fronts the garden of the large presbytery which is attached to the northeast corner of the church, and the church and presbytery together form a strong architectural composition.
The interior walls are all plastered and painted with plain flooring of timber. There is a west gallery in the 1960s extension and nave arcades of four bays of simple pointed chamfered arches on square chamfered concrete piers. Above each pier the nave is spanned by the tie beams of the roof and above them is a five-sided timbered ceiling. The aisles have lean-to roofs and are also timbered. The east bay on the south side is a small transept. There is no chancel arch in the usual sense, but the division between nave and sanctuary is marked by pilaster strips on the walls with a rood beam at half- height and a timber rib spanning the roof between them. The sanctuary has a single large open arch on each side and is richly furnished. The east wall in particular is lined to full-height with carved decoration. The floor is black and white marble. On the south side of the sanctuary is a second transept divided from the first by a double arch resting on dwarf double columns with ornamental Gothic capitals. In the east wall of this transept a chamfered pointed arch leads to the base of the tower which contains a Lourdes grotto.
The church is rich in fittings. These include the carved timber reredos filling the whole east wall, the extraordinary pulpit with figures of evangelists supported by cherubs, apparently designed by Fr Gilbert, who also designed the figures of the rood beam, the elaborate oak stalls in the sanctuary and the font at the west end of the nave given in memory of Col. Knight (d.1891) with its stone bowl on clustered columns and a surrounding floor of Cosmati work.
There is some stained glass in the church including the west window by Whitefriars and other windows by Goddard & Gibbs. The scale model of the Lourdes grotto was built by Cyril Psaila (d. 1931).

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

A free press can, of course, be good or bad, but, most certainly without freedom, the press will never be anything but bad.
A guilty conscience needs to confess. A work of art is a confession.
A man without ethics is a wild beast loosed upon this world.
A man's work is nothing but this slow trek to rediscover, through the detours of art, those two or three great and simple images in whose presence his heart first opened.
A taste for truth at any cost is a passion which spares nothing.
Abstract Art: A product of the untalented, sold by the unprincipled to the utterly bewildered.
After all manner of professors have done their best for us, the place we are to get knowledge is in books. The true university of these days is a collection of books.
After all, every murderer when he kills runs the risk of the most dreadful of deaths, whereas those who kill him risk nothing except promotion.
Ah, mon cher, for anyone who is alone, without God and without a master, the weight of days is dreadful.
Alas, after a certain age every man is responsible for his face.
All great deeds and all great thoughts have a ridiculous beginning.
All great deeds and all great thoughts have a ridiculous beginning. Great works are often born on a street corner or in a restaurant's revolving door.
All modern revolutions have ended in a reinforcement of the power of the State.
An intellectual is someone whose mind watches itself.
As a remedy to life in society I would suggest the big city. Nowadays, it is the only desert within our means.
At 30 a man should know himself like the palm of his hand, know the exact number of his defects and qualities, know how far he can go, foretell his failures - be what he is. And, above all, accept these things.
At any street corner the feeling of absurdity can strike any man in the face.
narradordeimagenes.blogspot.com/2012/03/palabras.html
Nuestros Dioses, esos que rigen nuestra existencia, o tal vez nuestras propias incongruencias decidieron hace unas semanas privar a la humanidad de uno de sus rasgos más característicos: la capacidad de comunicarse mediante el habla.
Los primeros días fueron caóticos, el pánico y la frustración hicieron acto de presencia llenando nuestras vidas de desconcierto. El día a día se convirtió en un infierno en el que parecía que, aparte del habla, casi hubiésemos perdido la cordura. Ya no podíamos usar el teléfono, si nuestros bebés lloraban no podíamos escuchar su llanto, la televisión había perdido la mitad de su sentido… y lo mismo sucedía con millones de cosas que antes eran totalmente rutinarias.
La depresión y la incomprensión ante un hecho tan insólito se instalaron entre nosotros, y los días fueron pasando.
Y según transcurrían los soles y las lunas, el potencial que posee el ser humano para superar momentos apocalípticos se fue imponiendo, y poco a poco nos fuimos acomodando a la nueva situación.
Lo que en un principio veíamos claramente como un hándicap fue transformándose en algo altamente beneficioso. Empezamos a darnos cuenta de lo irreflexivamente que usábamos nuestra voz cuando aún disponíamos de ella, empleando las palabras con total ligereza, sin prestarles ninguna atención.
Nuevas formas de comunicación, mucho más íntimas y conectadas, han empezado a surgir desde entonces. Si escribimos para hacernos entender, lo hacemos poniendo plena conciencia en cada una de las palabras que empleamos en el papel. También hemos comenzado a utilizar nuestro cuerpo a un nivel al que nunca habíamos llegado, creando nuevas formas de interacción con nuestros semejantes. La empatía por quienes nos rodean se ha hecho presente con rapidez, ahora somos capaces de mirar fijamente a los ojos y conectar de verdad con la persona que tenemos en frente.
Ya no nos despedimos diciendo adiós, ahora nos abrazamos de verdad.
La desaparición de las palabras sonoras supuso el génesis de la verdadera comunicación.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Our Gods, those that govern our existence, or maybe our own inconsistencies decided few weeks ago to deprive humanity of one of its strongest features: the ability to communicate through speech.
The first few days were chaotic, panic and frustration made an appearance filling our lives with confusion. Daily life became hell when it seemed that apart from the speech, we had almost lost our minds. We could not use the phone, if our babies cried we could not hear their crying, television had lost half its meaning ... and so did millions of things that were once completely routine.
Depression and incomprehension at an unimaginable event settled between us and the days went by.
And as suns and moons were spent, the potential of the human being to overcome apocalyptic moments was imposed, and step by step we went arranging to the new situation.
What in the beginning we clearly saw as a handicap was transformed into something highly beneficial. We began to realize how thoughtlessly we used our voice when we still had it, using the words with complete lightness, without paying any attention.
New ways of communication, much more intimate and connected, began to emerge. If we write in order to make ourselves understood, we do it putting full awareness in each of the words we use in the paper. We also began to use our body into a level that had never come, creating new forms of interaction with our peers. Empathy for those around us showed up quickly, now we can look straight in the eye and really connect with the person that we have in front of us.
We no longer say goodbye saying goodbye, we hug each other for real now.
The disappearance of audible words meant the genesis of true communication.

A 'kitchen sink solution' on jobs
By: Chris Frates
June 15, 2011
The center-left Washington think tank Third Way is holding a forum Wednesday to discuss the merits of allowing companies to bring the $1 trillion in profits parked overseas back to the United States at a temporarily reduced tax rate.
The morning forum at Union Station will include Sen. Kay Hagan (D-N.C.); Democratic Reps. Loretta Sanchez of California and Jared Polis of Colorado; former Service Employees International Union President Andy Stern; Duke Energy chief executive Jim Rogers; and George Schink, managing director of Navigant Economics.
Third Way’s vice president of communications, Sean Gibbons, said the forum is designed to determine whether the idea — which is anathema to many liberals — is a viable option for jump-starting U.S. job growth.
“We have unemployment near 9 percent. We’ve basically pulled every single lever we can as a government. … We’ve done almost everything we can to get the economy going. It’s time to throw in the kitchen sink. This is a kitchen sink solution,” Gibbons said. One trillion dollars “is a lot of coin. It’s sitting overseas. If we could bring over a significant portion of that back into the economy, we believe that would stimulate demand, and demand stimulates jobs.”
It’s not a perfect solution, Gibbons said, but one the Republican-controlled House might be willing to entertain.
He acknowledged that analysts don’t yet know how many jobs such a policy might create. But, he said, bringing money back to the U.S. creates demand, which in turn drives hiring.
The forum is the first public event of the think tank’s new corporate tax reform project directed by former Rep. Dan Maffei (D-N.Y.), who’s now a Third Way senior fellow.
Right now there is over a trillion dollars in global profits earned by American businesses sitting overseas. What if we lowered the bar for companies to bring that money back home?
Third Way hosted an Idea Forum that examined the economic and policy implications of a repatriation tax holiday that would allow American multinational companies to bring overseas profits back to the U.S. for investment at a reduced tax rate.
Featuring a distinguished panel of leaders from business, labor, economics and government, the forum offered a fruitful discussion of a repatriation holiday’s impact on hiring and investment, business practices, and future tax policy. Participants include Senator Kay Hagan, (D-NC), Congresswoman Loretta Sanchez (CA-47), Congressman Jared Polis (CO-2), Andy Stern, former President of the Service Employees International Union, Jim Rogers, CEO of Duke Energy and Dr. George Schink, Managing Director and Principal of Navigant Economics.
This Idea Forum is the first public event of Third Way’s new corporate tax reform project, managed by former Congressman (and now Third Way Senior Fellow) Dan Maffei, which will advance ideas to make the code fairer, simpler, and more pro-growth.

Sailbots head for the high seas
17 May 2011 by Jacob Aron

PEOPLE have been sailing the world for centuries, but ask a robot to do the same and it quickly falls down.
Last year Mark Neal, a computer scientist at the University of Aberystwyth, UK, oversaw the launch of Pinta, a robotic sailing boat that set off from the west coast of Ireland in an attempt to be the first automaton to cross the Atlantic Ocean. His team lost communication with the boat just over two days later. The voyage was still an achievement: "Forty-nine hours is the longest period of unattended autonomous sailing that has happened," says Neal.
When uncrewed aircraft can master flight so readily, it might seem strange that it is so hard for a robot to sail a boat. In fact, the challenges are very different. "Some of the longest unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) flights are a day or two. If something stays up for 24 hours, that's a pretty outstanding achievement," says Neal. In contrast, a useful robo-boat needs to run for months using only sails and solar power (see "Why build a robot sailor?"). During that time the solar panels could get caked with salt, the craft could be damaged, and barnacles and weed could grow on the rudder.
What's more, while UAVs have to cope with weather changes, the conditions they operate in are fairly stable compared with those of the ocean, Neal says. "The boat needs to deal flexibly with an unpredictable environment," says Roland Stelzer of the Austrian Society for Innovative Computer Sciences in Vienna. Stelzer is in charge of Roboat, an automated 3.75-metre-long boat that has won the World Robotic Sailing Championship for the past three years by successfully completing tasks including a 24-hour endurance race and navigation between tightly spaced buoys.
Stelzer puts Roboat's success down to its computer "brain", which mimics two human sailing abilities. One system plots the best route by calculating the heading that takes best advantage of wind speed and direction in relation to the destination.
The other keeps the boat on the desired course. It does this by considering factors like how far the boat is heeling and whether waves have pushed it off course, and then adjusting the rudder position to make both small corrections and sudden turns.
However, each competition took place within 4 kilometres of the shore. "We had to monitor the boat all the time either from shore or on a chasing boat," Stelzer says.
The Pinta is smaller and less sophisticated, in case the boat is lost at sea. Stelzer's craft might be robust enough to cross the Atlantic, but he is reluctant to try - losing such an expensive rig would be a huge setback.
Instead, the first robotic sailors to spend long periods at sea may come from the Protei project, which aims to build autonomous craft for cleaning up oil spills. Conceived by designer Cesar Harada, who also leads the project, the boats have a unique articulated design that allows the hull to flex in order to best use the wind while turning.
The hardware is open source, meaning that anyone can work on or modify the design and help solve problems. "It's a collaboration with people worldwide contributing their best knowledge and enthusiasm," says Peim Wirtz, who manages the project from the V2 centre in Rotterdam, the Netherlands. The concepts behind Protei have undergone small-scale tests, and the team will now build a full-scale prototype after raising nearly $35,000 on the crowd-funding website Kickstarter last month. "We have over 300 backers that thought the initiative was worth sponsoring," says Wirtz.
So will we see robots sail the seas any time soon? Wirtz hopes to complete the Protei prototype by September and Pinta will be making another transatlantic attempt at the same time. "If we didn't think it was possible, we wouldn't be trying," Neal says. "Someone will do it, and I'd like that to be us."
Why build a robot sailor?
A boat that sails itself would be a nice bit of tech, but what are the practical benefits? A craft using only sails and solar power would be ideal for long-term missions, says Roland Stelzer of the Austrian Society for Innovative Computer Sciences.
"In the future, autonomous sailing boats will be used for tasks such as maritime monitoring, reconnaissance and surveillance, and carbon dioxide-neutral transportation of goods," he says. Robotic sailboats could also operate in swarms, allowing them to tackle large-scale problems like gathering meteorological data in remote stretches of ocean or measuring water pollution. They could even be used to rescue refugees.

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

The Coffee Drinking Ceremony
Spreading freshly cut grass on the floor sets the scene for the coffee ceremony. Traditionally, for any special occasion, scented grass will be strewn directly on the floors of houses. A recent development is to scatter flowers over the grass to make it attractive.
People take their seats around the carpet of grass and the necessary utensils for the ceremony. The lady making the coffee will sit in the centre on a stool and be dressed in a white Ethiopian dress with coloured, woven, decorative borders.
The main items needed for the ceremony include: - a black clay coffee pot, locally known as jebena which is round at the bottom with a straw lid, placed on a circular band of straw. Small, often decorated china cups, known as sini are lined up together with a sugar jug on a special wooden curved tray with four short legs, like a miniature table.
There is a narrow-waisted clay brazier for burning charcoal on which the coffee is roasted and brewed and a flat round iron pan and a spoon with a long handle for roasting the coffee beans. A small clay incense-burner and some roasted grain lie in a colourful straw basket. All together there are about forty-one items for the ceremony.
The lady who is conducting the ceremony gently washes a handful of coffee beans on the heated pan. Roasted popcorn, barley or bread is passed round, amid general conversation while the coffee beans are stirred and shaken and the husks are blown away. When the coffee beans have turned black and shining and the aromatic oil is coaxed out of them, the lady brings the pan around to every body shaking the beans so that the coffee smoke rises from the pan and gives off the strong coffee-flavoured aroma. Everybody stretches out their arms to pull the aroma closer to their noses.
The lady then brings one or two pieces of burning charcoal to the incense burner and cream-coloured incense crystals are thrown on to the burning charcoal. A few seconds later the air is filled with the smoke and aroma of the incense, mingled with the coffee smell. The Jebena, will be filled with water and placed on the brazier for boiling before the ground coffee is poured into it. At this time the lady will grind the coffee with a wooden pestle and a mortar.
Ground coffee is then added to the water in the pot little by little. With a graceful movement the lady then lifts the jebena and holding it high pours into the little cups and fills them up to the brim. Now the first round of coffee known as awol, a word of Arabic origin, meaning ‘first’ is ready to be drunk. The cups are then served, starting with the elderly first. Children are not served coffee but they will be given a handful of roasted popcorn, barley or a piece of bread, which is prepared for the ceremony. Traditionally in many parts of the country, coffee would have been served slightly salted and in some parts mixed with fresh butter, but currently it is served with sugar.
After the first round the jebena is refilled with water and there is more talking and consumption of popcorn or bread. The second round is now ready. It is weaker than the first as no further coffee has been added. This new round is called tona, from the Arabic thani, meaning ‘second’. When there are many guests and not enough cups to go round, or when it becomes difficult to remember to whom each cup belongs, a bowl of water will be brought in for rinsing the cups between rounds.
The third and final brew is made by again adding water to the original coffee, and brining it to the boil. The last brew is called baraka, which means ‘blessing’ in several languages including Arabic and Geez, the Ethiopian ecclesiastical language. At the end of the third round the elderly bless the house and everybody departs.
What is more appropriate this time of year, than thinking about the kids!

It is calling for rain the next few days, and my whole being is affected by these chilly, gray days.
So will try to do what I can, and look back at the sunny days spent in different gardens.

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

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

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".

"Play It By Trust" 1966/1999
by Yoko Ono
White pieces on white board
www.francisnaumann.com/EXHIBITIONS/DuchampChess/index.html
“Marcel Duchamp: The Art of Chess” is the first exhibition devoted to exploring the influence of Duchamp’s activities as a chess player on his artistic production. It debuted at the St. Louis University Museum of Art (May 6 – August 16, 2009), and the present gallery exhibition is an expanded version of that show. It will open at Francis M. Naumann Fine Art on September 10, 2009 (and run through October 31, 2009).
The exhibition features the magnificent early cubist drawing Study for Portrait of Chess Players (1911), which renders Duchamp’s two brothers—Raymond Duchamp-Villon and Jacques Villon—intently engaged in a game of chess; a large central “X” in the center of the composition represents the precise point where their minds meet, a cerebral focus common to much of Duchamp’s subsequent production. Among the highlights of the show will be an example of the readymade Trébuchet (1917/64), the coat rack that visitors to Duchamp’s studio were expected to trip over (the chess equivalent of a gambit offered in the opening of a game); the Nice chess poster (1925); regular and deluxe examples of his book on endgame strategy (1932); the Pocket Chess Set (1943); and Cupid (1943), a recently discovered original drawing for the announcement of a show at the Julien Levy Gallery (in which Duchamp seems to have embedded a hidden message). A number of photographs of Duchamp either playing chess or seated before a chessboard will also be displayed. A signed, limited edition photograph by Arnold Rosenberg of Marcel Duchamp moving chess pieces behind glass (1958) was issued to commemorate this exhibition.
Also included in the show will be works by a number of Duchamp’s contemporaries—Man Ray, Georges de Zayas, Max Ernst, Salvador Dalí, Leon Kelly, Beatrice Wood, Arman and Sarah Austin—that relate to Duchamp’s involvement with the game of chess, as well as a selection of works by contemporary artists—Charles Juhàsz Alvardo, Mike Bidlo, Donald Bradford, Russell Connor, Ingrid Evans, Mark Kostabi, Sophie Matisse, Daniel Meirom, James Meyer, Trong Gia Nguyen, Yoko Ono, Jennifer Shahade, Diana Thater, Douglas Vogel—some of whom have made works specially for inclusion in this show.
Accompanying the exhibition will be Marcel Duchamp: The Art of Chess, a book featuring essays by Francis M. Naumann and Bradley Bailey, both of which demonstrate that Duchamp’s identity as a chess player is so thoroughly interfused with his work as an artist that the two activities are aesthetically and conceptually inseparable. The book also includes the analyses of fifteen Duchamp games by Jennifer Shahade (two-time American Women’s Chess Champion). These games will be reenacted in the exhibition on a video monitor, on which visitors will be able to view the movement of the pieces, all laid out in the format of Duchamp’s Pocket Chess Set of 1943.

Shibu Onsen is a historic and attractive hot spring town in Yamanouchi, which has retained a traditional atmosphere. Nestled in a small valley, Shibu Onsen is spread out on a gentle slope beside the Yokoyugawa River, with Yudanaka Onsen located below and the Jigokudani Monkey Park above.
During its long history, the area has been visited for its hot spring water by a lot of people, including priests, samurai and poets. Some of the ryokan (Japanese style inns) that line Shibu's narrow streets, date back over 400 years, adding greatly to Shibu's atmosphere. Guests of the ryokan are encouraged to take a stroll around town in the traditional onsen clothing of yukata robes and geta sandals.
One incentive to walk around the town is to make use of the public bath houses, of which there are nine. The public baths are locked and, except for one, only accessible to locals and overnight guests, who are provided with a master key by their ryokan. The bath houses are small buildings, divided into a women's side and a men's side, and the baths themselves are quite simple. The bath houses are numbered, but also have special names and cure different ailments. Source: www.japan-guide.com

Yamanouchi is a municipality in northern Nagano Prefecture with a variety of tourist attractions. The area's Jigokudani Monkey Park draws many visitors because of its unique wild monkeys, who bathe in the park's natural hot springs. The monkeys are not the only ones enjoying the water, as the nearby towns of Shibu Onsen and Yudanaka Onsen are centered around the bathing experience.
The largest ski resort in Japan, Shiga Kogen, is also located within Yamanouchi. One single ticket gives skiers and snowboarders access to dozens of runs, some of which hosted events during the 1998 Nagano Winter Olympics. Shiga Kogen and other parts of Yamanouchi are part of the Joshinetsu Kogen National Park, which offers hiking and other outdoor activities when there is no snow on the hills.

Under Nicolae Ceausescu Blandiana's writings were banned after a "seditious" poem she wrote about the dictator: "Motanul Arpagic" (Tom Cat Onion)...
After 1990 she was active in the "Alianta Civica" which helped bring to the fore the first democratic government in Romania (1996-2000).
Below is one of Blandiana's ""engaged" poems about the status of women under communism:
“An entire people,
Not yet born,
But condemned to birth,
In columns before birth
Foetus beside foetus,
An entire people,
Which does not see, does not hear, does not understand,
But moves forward.
Through writhing bodies of women,
Through the blood of mothers
Unconsulted.”
(Ana Blandiana, The Children’s Crusade, 1984)

6700 Production/Switch Tamper
The 6700 Tamper is the latest model of Harsco Rail’s well-known production and switch tamper. Harsco Rail’s 6700 Tamper is a high tech, refined machine known for top quality production, switch tamping, and transit system work. Harsco’s Positive Displacement Workhead Technology is an available option for this machine. Harsco Rail tampers are designed to meet local standards of the customer.
Light Reference System
The Light Reference System consists of the light buggy, mask sensors, surfacing sensor, and a lining sensor located at the rear of the machine. An encoder wheel by the right rear wheel is also used with the auto curve liner system.
Surfacing System
The Surfacing System detects the low spots in the track and the cross level between the two rails. The upper lights on the light buggy shine through the slot in the upper masks on the mask follower. The sensors mounted on the hydraulic and fuel tanks then detect the light and determine the position of the track.
Lining System
The Lining System detects how far the track is out of alignment from being straight and also determines the proper track position in curves. One lower light on the light carriage shines through the slot in the lower mask on the mask follower. The sensor mounted on the rear rail follower then detects the light and determines the position of the track.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Railroad Tampers
Railroad tampers are another type of maintenance equipment that have greatly improved the efficiency and speed in maintaining the track and right-of-way. As there name implies railroad tampers use hydraulic jacks to "tamp" the ballast, which levels the stone around the ties as well as works it underneath the ties for proper support. As with virtually all maintenance equipment before these machines were constructed all such work was done by manual track gangs that required a strong back and powerful arms. The newest tampers come equipped with a bevy of electronics to also properly align the track after tamping and what are known as production tampers have the capability of lifting the rails to insure that the ballast is beneath the ties for maximum support. Today, tampers are manufactured by several companies including Harsco Rail (which bought out Fairmont, a long-time builder of this machine), Plasser American, and Dymax Rail.
Before the advent of mechanized railroad tampers the work of getting ballast beneath the ties as well as aligning the track was all done by hand and a good eye. The job involved a track gang of men who would push the ballast beneath the ties one at a time and track jacks were used to properly align the rails. As you can imagine it was slow, very labor intensive work all of which has been greatly improved with the mechanized railroad tamper. Railroad tampers almost always work as some kind of mechanized gang, usually as part of a tie or rail gang (which today normally consists of an army of machines, not men).
Today's tie and rail gangs include such machines as spike or rail anchor pullers (which pull the spikes/anchors clear of the tie), tie cranes (which remove the railroad ties once they are free of the rails), tie extractors/inserters (different from a tie crane these machines work vertically to remove or replace the railroad tie from underneath the rail), and spike inserters (as you might have guessed these machines use hydraulics to quickly drive spikes down in the tie plate and tie itself). If very heavy work is being done other large equipment will be used such as a mechanized tie relaying machine (which is essentially a type of railroad tie inserter) and/or even a rail train if new rail is to be laid.
As it is, tie and rail gangs may look like machines simply heading off to work in an elephant line. However, they are actually very coordinated work details with each machine and accompanying operator assigned a very specific task to get the work done as quickly as possible. The reason for speed and hastiness in finishing a maintenance job is simply, to keep the trains and goods moving. Delays are quite costly and avoided at all costs because if the freight isn't delivered the railroad's don't get paid! Standard railroad tampers work by using sets of heavy-grade steel jacks, which are hydraulically controlled, and feature a small paddle-like design on the very end of the tool.
These jacks are then lowered into the ballast at a certain depth, depending on the thickness of the ties and oscillate at thousands of revolutions per minute. This back and forth motion, along with "pushing" the ballast downward, allows the stone to become very free flowing and causes it to work beneath the ties, giving the track structure maximum support. Tamping also helps to level out the ballast a bit, although final sculpting and angling of the stone is left to ballast regulators. Perhaps, though, the most efficient type of railroad tamper is the production tamper. Looking as if it is a type of auto carrier a production tamper is capable of lifting the entire track structure where it is working (the reason for the extra support beams built into the machine).
The purpose of this is so the machine can not only more efficiently situate the ballast beneath and around the ties but also to properly align the track as well. Using what is known as the Delta System developed in the 1950s production tampers are able to remove the bumps and dips in the rail by aligning the track to a perfectly "flat" traveling surface (excluding superelevated curved track) using triangulation. One other type of railroad tamper is the switch tamper, which is able to swivel its equipment and jacks to work the intricate spaces between railroad switches and diamonds. To learn more about railroad tampers please visit Harsco Rail's website, which provides exact specifications and information concerning their latest models. There you can also check out other types of maintenance machines the company produces such as spike inserters/pullers, undercutters, and blowers.
Other Maintenance-Of-Way Equipment:
Shoulder Cleaners
Ditch Cleaners
Defect Detection Cars
Undercutters
Ballast Regulators
Spike Inserters/Pullers
Tie Cranes
Tie Extractors/Inserters
Rail Grinders
Lastly, for more reading about tampers you may want to consider the book Railway Maintenance Equipment: The Men and Machines That Keep the Railroads Running from noted author Brian Solomon. Throughout the book's 128 pages Solomon covers all types of maintenance equipment from tampers and undercutters to Jordan Spreaders and rotary snow plows. I own this book myself and have used it as reference material for this site many times. It's a great read on an often little understood area of railroading.

( It claimed eleven lives[6][7][8][9] and is considered the largest accidental marine oil spill in the history of the petroleum industry, an estimated 8% to 31% larger in volume than the previously largest, the Ixtoc I oil spill. Following the explosion and sinking of the Deepwater Horizon oil rig, a sea-floor oil gusher flowed for 87 days, until it was capped on 15 July 2010.[8][10] The US Government estimated the total discharge at 4.9 million barrels (210 million US gal; 780,000 m3).[3] After several failed efforts to contain the flow, the well was declared sealed on 19 September 2010.[11] Some reports indicate the well site continues to leak.[12][13](per wikipedia..
notice the 1831 salcedo guyaso.. take away the contained 1 and you have... 831.. there's much more if you just check it out :)

(The 2011 earthquake off the Pacific coast of Tōhoku (東北地方太平洋沖地震 Tōhoku-chihō Taiheiyō Oki Jishin?), often referred to in Japan as the Great East Japan Earthquake (東日本大震災 Higashi nihon daishinsai?)[8][9][10][fn 1] and also known as the 2011 Tohoku earthquake,[11] and the 3.11 Earthquake, was a magnitude 9.0 (Mw) undersea megathrust earthquake off the coast of Japan that occurred at 14:46 JST (05:46 UTC) on Friday 11 March 2011,[2][3][12] with the epicentre approximately 70 kilometres (43 mi) east of the Oshika Peninsula of Tōhoku and the hypocenter at an underwater depth of approximately 30 km (19 mi).[2][13] It was the most powerful known earthquake ever to have hit Japan, and the fifth most powerful earthquake in the world since modern record-keeping began in 1900.[12][14][15] The earthquake triggered powerful tsunami waves that reached heights of up to 40.5 metres (133 ft) in Miyako in Tōhoku's Iwate Prefecture,[16][17] and which, in the Sendai area, travelled up to 10 km (6 mi) inland.[18] The earthquake moved Honshu (the main island of Japan) 2.4 m (8 ft) east and shifted the Earth on its axis by estimates of between 10 cm (4 in) and 25 cm (10 in),[19][20][21] and generated sound waves detected by the low orbiting GOCE satellite.[22]
On 12 September 2012, a Japanese National Police Agency report confirmed 15,883 deaths,[23] 6,150 injured,[24] and 2,643 people missing[25] across twenty prefectures, as well as 129,225 buildings totally collapsed, with a further 254,204 buildings 'half collapsed', and another 691,766 buildings partially damaged.[26] The earthquake and tsunami also caused extensive and severe structural damage in north-eastern Japan, including heavy damage to roads and railways as well as fires in many areas, and a dam collapse.[18][27] Japanese Prime Minister Naoto Kan said, "In the 65 years after the end of World War II, this is the toughest and the most difficult crisis for Japan."[28] Around 4.4 million households in northeastern Japan were left without electricity and 1.5 million without water.[29]
The main earthquake was preceded by a number of large foreshocks, with hundreds of aftershocks reported. The first major foreshock was a 7.2 MW event on 9 March, approximately 40 km (25 mi) from the epicenter of the 11 March earthquake, with another three on the same day in excess of 6.0 MW.[2][40] Following the main earthquake on 11 March, a 7.0 MW aftershock was reported at 15:06 JST (6:06 UTC), succeeded by a 7.4 MW at 15:15 JST (6:16 UTC) and a 7.2 MW at 15:26 JST (6:26 UTC).[41] Over eight hundred aftershocks of magnitude 4.5 MW or greater have occurred since the initial quake,[42] including one on 26 October 2013 (local time) of magnitude 7.3.[43] Aftershocks follow Omori's Law, which states that the rate of aftershocks declines with the reciprocal of the time since the main quake. The aftershocks will thus taper off in time, but could continue for years.[44](per wikipedia :)

what else?
Still creating that "natural order" and ordinance of time of yours on a daily monthly weekly yearly basis and killing people in time, CIA and NSA Whore and MURDERER Jami Rose? :)
here's the rest :)
by entering in her information from date of birth here:
www.timeanddate.com/date/duration.html
you can monitor her information that is used by the world markets on a daily basis, not only that, but control for what is in numerical belief, thru out the us and the rest of the world.
She creates a natural order in time with her existance and by her date of birth, on a daily basis, weekly basis, yearly basis and in forward motion time placement. :)
Its also an Ordinance in time,
(but she's KILLING people in time. THOUSANDS of people,
and *thats* accepted. :) not anymore, huh, CIA and NSA Whore and MURDERER Jami Rose. :) not anymore :)

and all those people she killed. never punished
thomas warn varnas will make sure that happens, won't he?
you attempted two murders on his life at 143 Rue Esplanade and Villa Du Lac,
by channeling his dreams with tenants and parking cars outside of his residence, capturing him..
how does it feel now Jami, to know the same is happening
to you :)
:)
there you go :)
btw, did i channel her ill will and associations unknowingly, and did it kill alisa ferraro and paul gagnon in time, to?
to me, that warrants enough to blow her head off.
sorry. but thats the way i feel, at the moment
~peace

(*that's good* oh i know it is mrs alisa who is with mr paul in heaven, *i know it is* ty friend :)!
the only thing that i'm surprised about kids, is that i *truly* thought she had a conscious,
and that she would disclose who she really is.. who supported her to KILL :)
and not just that, to attempt to kill me to.
but you're too much of a coward, to face justice,
huh nsa cia whore and murderer jami rose?
what? afraid that you might end up in prison?
:) that would be a safer place for you now> :)
well, your move.
still chicken? seemingly so, and albeit without a conscious.
how long, will that last ?
