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

Welcome to New York's Upper East side where the wealthy and connected mingle at benefits and try to deal with their always dramatic love lives, not to mention picking colleges. Blair Waldorf is the so-called toast of adolescence in her world; she and her friends, Kati Farkas and Isabel Coates, go to a prep school and fancy parties with their rich parents. Blair is envied by her adversaries because she is thought to have the perfect life, not just because of her gorgeous boyfriend, Nate Archibald, but because she's also planning on getting into her dream college,Yale. With everyone worried about college(or procrastinating on worrying, which everyone seems to be doing), and senior year dragging along, her seemingly perfect life is interrupted by her ex-best friend, the beautiful Serena van der Woodsen, coming back into town after getting kicked out of boarding school. Serena comes back into her life, and into the eyes of Blair's boy friend. When everything Blair knows starts to fall apart, everyone will realize that her life is far from perfect. Will life in the the Upper East Side redeem itself of what it's really supposed to be? Or will the false facade reveal that the rich have the same problems as the not so rich (Jenny and Dan Humphrey), if not more. And just maybe Jenny and Dan are all the more happy with their simple, not so expectant lives.
I borrowed those photos from
akibahobby.net/2009/09/revoltech_qb_merona_sample.html
they made detail introductions on figures not yet on the market.
It's about time for me to think about how to marker merona's face as I please. on the tittle I was saying facial improvement, but actually, her face is great in her own ways therefore no improvement is needed.
unlike Echidna, Merona's face has achieved her creater's own perfection (the model sculpter), and now it's time for me to achieve mine on Merona, and it will be my own version of it.
Here we see 3 photos, on the left is original face, at the middle, we can see normally my own skinning bear version of Merona. On the right, is how I tried to expanding her characteristic by adding unusual eyelashes.
One special thing about her eyes is her cross-shaped pupil, it remind me of circus and freak show, but I want to give her some magical, super natural feels and gorgeous gipsy female magician with extoic make-up (at least to Asians....) and all that out look. Plus she can have creams shoot out from her body, this character design actually goes perfectly well of the style that I wish to turn her into.
So, I decide to go bit extreme for her lower eyelashes, it's like a circus make-up and to fit the curve of her body and skirt, I go with round, petal like shape eyelash. I have no idea how I can actually draw that with Gundam marker, but it's always interesting to think about the possibilities.....
By the way check this out for extreme make up that also looks good:

Kleines Landeswappen
Dabei repräsentiert Schwarz die Landesteile Württemberg und Hohenzollern,
Gold hingegen Baden.
Das Wappen zeigt drei schreitende Löwen auf goldenem Grund. Dies ist das Wappen der Staufer und Herzöge von Schwaben.
Das Signet (lat. signum „Zeichen“) ist ein dem Logo übergeordnetes visuelles Zeichen.
Identifikationszeichen
Logo Siegel Signum Brandmarke
Als sich der Handel im Mittelmeerraum ausbreitete (ab etwa 800 v. Chr.), entwickelte sich zunehmend die Verwendung von Identifikationszeichen wie Töpfer-, Steinmetz- und Goldschmiedemarken. Andere Vorläufer von Markenzeichen waren die Brandmarken auf Nutztieren, die die Identität ihrer Besitzer garantierte und dadurch auch die Unverwechselbarkeit der Tiere auf dem Markt gewährleisteten. Solche Identifikations- oder Besitzzeichen hatten die pragmatische Funktion, die Ware, den Besitzer oder den Hersteller zu identifizieren. Darüber hinaus konnten diese Zeichen auch den Qualitätswert der Produkte eines bestimmten Züchters oder Handwerkers darstellen. Die verwendeten Zeichen haben sich eher als Bildzeichen denn als Wortzeichen etabliert, um auch über Ländergrenzen hinaus verstanden zu werden. Markenzeichen werden heute auch Signete genannt.

de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portal:Baden-Württemberg
Baden-Württemberg ist das einzige deutsche Land, das aus einer Volksabstimmung hervorging. Die Mehrheit der Bürgerinnen und Bürger sprach sich am 9. Dezember 1951 für den Zusammenschluss der Länder Württemberg-Baden, Württemberg-Hohenzollern und Baden aus.
Persönlicher Kommentar:
Baden vertraute einer internen Prognose, nach der die Mehrheit gegen den Zusammenschluss waren, weshalb sie listig die Volksabstimmung beantragten.
Inzwischen waren aber 1,5 Millionen Kriegsflüchtlinge ins Land gekommen.
Deren Vetreter empfahlen für den Zusammenschluss zu stimmen. Kurz zuvor wurde allen Vertriebenen die Wahlberechtigung per Dekret geschenkt.
Endlich waren sie gleichwertige Bürger, also de facto einer Anerkennung der deutschen Staatsbürgerschaft gleichzusetzen.
Man kann von einer fast 100% igen Wahlbeteiligung unter den Vetriebenen ausgehen.
Alle hofften auf bessere Unterkünfte und Hilfen.
Ein starkes Baden-Württemberg schien dafür geeignet.. Dies traf dann auch tatsächlich ein.
Die Situation der Heimatvertriebenen aus dem 2. Weltkrieg verbesserte sich nach und nach.
Die Geburtsstunde Baden-Württembergs am 25. April 1952 war die Initialzündung für einen beispiellosen Aufstieg des neuen Südweststaats. Theodor Heuss sprach von einem "Modell deutscher Möglichkeiten".
Baden-Wuerttemberg is the only German country, which was made by a Popular Vote.
The majority of the citizens and citizens expressed itself on 9th December 1951 for the union of the countries a Württemberg-Baden, Württemberg Hohenzollern and Baden. The birth of Baden-Wuerttemberg was on 25th April 1952 . This was the start for an unparalleled ascent of the new southwest state.
Theodor Heuss called this " Model of German Possibilities".
The sobriquet Ländle (dialect form for "small land") is sometimes used as a synonym for the Swabian part of Baden-Württemberg.

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

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

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

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

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

Fountain Paint Pot trail, Yellowstone National Park, Wyoming, USA

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

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

A quick overview of YNP
Yellowstone National Park is an American national park located in Wyoming, Montana, and Idaho. Approximately 96 percent of the land area of Yellowstone National Park is located within the state of Wyoming. The Park spans an area of 8,983 km2 comprising lakes, canyons, rivers and mountain ranges. The park is known for its wildlife and its many geothermal features. It has many types of ecosystems, but the subalpine forest is the most abundant. It is part of the South Central Rockies forests eco-region.
It was established by the U.S. Congress and signed into law by President Ulysses S. Grant on March 1, 1872. Yellowstone was the first national park in the U.S. and is also widely held to be the first national park in the world. Native Americans have lived in the Yellowstone region for at least 11,000 years. Aside from visits by mountain -men during the early to mid-19th century, organized exploration did not begin until the late 1860s.
The park contains the headwaters of the Yellowstone River, from which it takes its historical name. Although it is commonly believed that the river was named for the yellow rocks seen in the ‘Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone’, the Native American name source is unclear.
Yellowstone Lake is one of the largest high-elevation lakes in North America and is centered over the Yellowstone Caldera, the largest supervolcano on the continent. The caldera is considered as an active volcano. It has erupted with tremendous force several times in the last two million year. The Yellowstone Caldera is the largest volcanic system in North America. It has been termed a "supervolcano" because the caldera was formed by exceptionally large explosive eruptions. The magma chamber that lies under Yellowstone is estimated to be a single connected chamber, about 60 km long, 29 km wide, and 5 to 12 km deep. Yellowstone Lake is up to 400 feet deep and has 180 km of shoreline.The lake is at an elevation of 7,733 feet above sea levels. Half of the world's geysers and hydrothermal features are there in Yellowstone, fueled by this ongoing volcanism. Lava and rocks from volcanic eruptions cover most of the land area of Yellowstone. The park is the centerpiece of the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem, the largest remaining nearly-intact ecosystem in the Earth's northern temperate zone. In 1978, Yellowstone was named a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
In May 2001, the U.S. Geological Survey, Yellowstone National Park, and the University of Utah created the Yellowstone Volcano Observatory (YVO), a partnership for long-term monitoring of the geological processes of the Yellowstone Plateau volcanic field, for disseminating information concerning the potential hazards of this geologically active region.
Hundreds of species of mammals, birds, fish, and reptiles have been documented, including several that are either endangered or threatened. The vast forests and grasslands also include unique species of plants. Yellowstone Park is the largest and most famous mega fauna location in the contiguous United States. Grizzly bears, wolves, and free-ranging herds of bison and elk live in this park. The Yellowstone Park bison herd is the oldest and largest public bison herd in the United States.
Forest fires occur in the park each year. In the largest forest fires of 1988, nearly one third of the park was burnt.
Yellowstone has numerous recreational opportunities, including hiking, camping, boating, fishing and sightseeing. Paved roads provide close access to the major geothermal areas as well as some of the lakes and waterfalls. During the winter, visitors often access the park by way of guided tours that use either snow coaches or snowmobiles.
Fire in Yellowstone NP:
Causes of wildfire in Yellowstone NP
Wildfire has had a role in the dynamics of Yellowstone’s ecosystems for thousands of years. Although many fires were caused by human activities, most ignitions were natural. The term "natural ignition" usually refers to a lightning strike. Afternoon thunderstorms occur frequently in the northern Rocky Mountains but release little precipitation, a condition known as ‘dry lightning’. In a typical season there are thousands of lightning strikes in Yellowstone. Lightning strikes are powerful enough to rip strips of bark off of a tree in a shower of sparks and blow the pieces up to 100 feet away. However, most lightning strikes do not result in a wildfire because fuels are not in a combustible state.
The great fire incidence of 1988
The Yellowstone fires of 1988 collectively formed the largest wildfire in the recorded history of Yellowstone National Park in the United States. Starting as many smaller individual fires, the flames quickly spread out of control due to drought conditions and increasing winds, combining into one large conflagration which burned for several months. The fires almost destroyed two major visitor destinations and, on September 8, 1988, the entire park closed to all non-emergency personnel for the first time in its history. Only the arrival of cool and moist weather in the late autumn brought the fires to an end. A total of 793,880 acres, or 36 percent of the park was affected by the wildfires.
Fire incidence, 2016
As of September 21, 2016, 22 fires (human and lightning-caused) have burned more than 62,000 acres in Yellowstone National Park, making it the highest number of acres burned since the historic 1988 fire.
Heritage and Research Center
The Heritage and Research Center is located at Gardiner, Montana, near the north entrance to the park. The center is home to the Yellowstone National Park's museum collection, archives, research library, historian, archeology lab, and herbarium. The Yellowstone National Park Archives maintain collections of historical records of Yellowstone and the National Park Service. The collection includes the administrative records of Yellowstone, as well as resource management records, records from major projects, and donated manuscripts and personal papers. The archives are affiliated with the National Archives and Records Administration.

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

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

History
1895–1947
On April 19, 1893, the Venetian City Council passed a resolution to set up an biennial exhibition of Italian Art ("Esposizione biennale artistica nazionale") to celebrate the silver anniversary of King Umberto I and Margherita of Savoy.[11]
A year later, the council decreed "to adopt a 'by invitation' system; to reserve a section of the Exhibition for foreign artists too; to admit works by uninvited Italian artists, as selected by a jury."[12]
The first Biennale, "I Esposizione Internazionale d'Arte della Città di Venezia (1st International Art Exhibition of the City of Venice)" (although originally scheduled for April 22, 1894) was opened on April 30, 1895, by the Italian King and Queen, Umberto I and Margherita di Savoia. The first exhibition was seen by 224,000 visitors.
The event became increasingly international in the first decades of the 20th century: from 1907 on, several countries installed national pavilions at the exhibition, with the first being from Belgium. In 1910 the first internationally well-known artists were displayed: a room dedicated to Gustav Klimt, a one-man show for Renoir, a retrospective of Courbet. A work by Picasso "Family of Saltimbanques" was removed from the Spanish salon in the central Palazzo because it was feared that its novelty might shock the public. By 1914 seven pavilions had been established: Belgium (1907), Hungary (1909), Germany (1909), Great Britain (1909), France (1912), and Russia (1914).
During World War I, the 1916 and 1918 events were cancelled.[13] In 1920 the post of mayor of Venice and president of the Biennale was split. The new secretary general, Vittorio Pica brought about the first presence of avant-garde art, notably Impressionists and Post-Impressionists.
1922 saw an exhibition of sculpture by African artists. Between the two World Wars, many important modern artists had their work exhibited there. In 1928 the Istituto Storico d'Arte Contemporanea (Historical Institute of Contemporary Art) opened, which was the first nucleus of archival collections of the Biennale. In 1930 its name was changed into Historical Archive of Contemporary Art.
In 1930, the Biennale was transformed into an Ente Autonomo (Autonomous Board) by Royal Decree with law no. 33 of 13-1-1930. Subsequently, the control of the Biennale passed from the Venice city council to the national Fascist government under Benito Mussolini. This brought on a restructuring, an associated financial boost, as well as a new president, Count Giuseppe Volpi di Misurata. Three entirely new events were established, including the Biennale Musica in 1930, also referred to as International Festival of Contemporary Music; the Venice Film Festival in 1932, which they claim as the first film festival in history,[14] also referred to as Venice International Film Festival; and the Biennale Theatro in 1934, also referred to as International Theatre Festival.
In 1933 the Biennale organized an exhibition of Italian art abroad. From 1938, Grand Prizes were awarded in the art exhibition section.
During World War II, the activities of the Biennale were interrupted: 1942 saw the last edition of the events. The Film Festival restarted in 1946, the Music and Theatre festivals were resumed in 1947, and the Art Exhibition in 1948.[15]
1948–1973[edit]
The Art Biennale was resumed in 1948 with a major exhibition of a recapitulatory nature. The Secretary General, art historian Rodolfo Pallucchini, started with the Impressionists and many protagonists of contemporary art including Chagall, Klee, Braque, Delvaux, Ensor, and Magritte, as well as a retrospective of Picasso's work. Peggy Guggenheim was invited to exhibit her collection, later to be permanently housed at Ca' Venier dei Leoni.
1949 saw the beginning of renewed attention to avant-garde movements in European—and later worldwide—movements in contemporary art. Abstract expressionism was introduced in the 1950s, and the Biennale is credited with importing Pop Art into the canon of art history by awarding the top prize to Robert Rauschenberg in 1964.[16] From 1948 to 1972, Italian architect Carlo Scarpa did a series of remarkable interventions in the Biennale's exhibition spaces.
In 1954 the island San Giorgio Maggiore provided the venue for the first Japanese Noh theatre shows in Europe. 1956 saw the selection of films following an artistic selection and no longer based upon the designation of the participating country. The 1957 Golden Lion went to Satyajit Ray's Aparajito which introduced Indian cinema to the West.
1962 included Arte Informale at the Art Exhibition with Jean Fautrier, Hans Hartung, Emilio Vedova, and Pietro Consagra. The 1964 Art Exhibition introduced continental Europe to Pop Art (The Independent Group had been founded in Britain in 1952). The American Robert Rauschenberg was the first American artist to win the Gran Premio, and the youngest to date.
The student protests of 1968 also marked a crisis for the Biennale. Student protests hindered the opening of the Biennale. A resulting period of institutional changes opened and ending with a new Statute in 1973. In 1969, following the protests, the Grand Prizes were abandoned. These resumed in 1980 for the Mostra del Cinema and in 1986 for the Art Exhibition.[17]
In 1972, for the first time, a theme was adopted by the Biennale, called "Opera o comportamento" ("Work or Behaviour").
Starting from 1973 the Music Festival was no longer held annually. During the year in which the Mostra del Cinema was not held, there was a series of "Giornate del cinema italiano" (Days of Italian Cinema) promoted by sectorial bodies in campo Santa Margherita, in Venice.[18]
1974–1998[edit]
1974 saw the start of the four-year presidency of Carlo Ripa di Meana. The International Art Exhibition was not held (until it was resumed in 1976). Theatre and cinema events were held in October 1974 and 1975 under the title Libertà per il Cile (Freedom for Chile)—a major cultural protest against the dictatorship of Augusto Pinochet.
On 15 November 1977, the so-called Dissident Biennale (in reference to the dissident movement in the USSR) opened. Because of the ensuing controversies within the Italian left wing parties, president Ripa di Meana resigned at the end of the year.[19]
In 1979 the new presidency of Giuseppe Galasso (1979-1982) began. The principle was laid down whereby each of the artistic sectors was to have a permanent director to organise its activity.
In 1980, the Architecture section of the Biennale was set up. The director, Paolo Portoghesi, opened the Corderie dell'Arsenale to the public for the first time. At the Mostra del Cinema, the awards were brought back into being (between 1969 and 1979, the editions were non-competitive). In 1980, Achille Bonito Oliva and Harald Szeemann introduced "Aperto", a section of the exhibition designed to explore emerging art. Italian art historian Giovanni Carandente directed the 1988 and 1990 editions. A three-year gap was left afterwards to make sure that the 1995 edition would coincide with the 100th anniversary of the Biennale.[13]
The 1993 edition was directed by Achille Bonito Oliva. In 1995, Jean Clair was appointed to be the Biennale's first non-Italian director of visual arts[20] while Germano Celant served as director in 1997.
For the Centenary in 1995, the Biennale promoted events in every sector of its activity: the 34th Festival del Teatro, the 46th art exhibition, the 46th Festival di Musica, the 52nd Mostra del Cinema.[21]
1999–present[edit]
In 1999 and 2001, Harald Szeemann directed two editions in a row (48th & 49th) bringing in a larger representation of artists from Asia and Eastern Europe and more young artists than usual and expanded the show into several newly restored spaces of the Arsenale.
In 1999 a new sector was created for live shows: DMT (Dance Music Theatre).
The 50th edition, 2003, directed by Francesco Bonami, had a record number of seven co-curators involved, including Hans Ulrich Obrist, Catherine David, Igor Zabel, Hou Hanru and Massimiliano Gioni.
The 51st edition of the Biennale opened in June 2005, curated, for the first time by two women, Maria de Corral and Rosa Martinez. De Corral organized "The Experience of Art" which included 41 artists, from past masters to younger figures. Rosa Martinez took over the Arsenale with "Always a Little Further." Drawing on "the myth of the romantic traveler" her exhibition involved 49 artists, ranging from the elegant to the profane.
In 2007, Robert Storr became the first director from the United States to curate the Biennale (the 52nd), with a show entitled Think with the Senses – Feel with the Mind. Art in the Present Tense.
Swedish curator Daniel Birnbaum was artistic director of the 2009 edition entitled "Fare Mondi // Making Worlds".
The 2011 edition was curated by Swiss curator Bice Curiger entitled "ILLUMInazioni – ILLUMInations".
The Biennale in 2013 was curated by the Italian Massimiliano Gioni. His title and theme, Il Palazzo Enciclopedico / The Encyclopedic Palace, was adopted from an architectural model by the self-taught Italian-American artist Marino Auriti. Auriti's work, The Encyclopedic Palace of the World was lent by the American Folk Art Museum and exhibited in the first room of the Arsenale for the duration of the biennale. For Gioni, Auriti's work, "meant to house all worldly knowledge, bringing together the greatest discoveries of the human race, from the wheel to the satellite," provided an analogous figure for the "biennale model itself...based on the impossible desire to concentrate the infinite worlds of contemporary art in a single place: a task that now seems as dizzyingly absurd as Auriti's dream."[22]
Curator Okwui Enwezor was responsible for the 2015 edition.[23] He was the first African-born curator of the biennial. As a catalyst for imagining different ways of imagining multiple desires and futures Enwezor commissioned special projects and programs throughout the Biennale in the Giardini. This included a Creative Time Summit, e-flux journal's SUPERCOMMUNITY, Gulf Labor Coalition, The Invisible Borders Trans-African Project and Abounaddara.[24][25]
The 2017 Biennale, titled Viva Arte Viva, was directed by French curator Christine Macel who called it an "exhibition inspired by humanism".[26] German artist Franz Erhard Walter won the Golden Lion for best artist, while Carolee Schneemann was awarded a posthumous Golden Lion for Lifetime Achievement.[27]
The 2019 Biennale, titled May You Live In Interesting Times, was directed by American-born curator Ralph Rugoff.[28]
The 2022 edition was curated by Italian curator Cecilia Alemani entitled "The Milk of Dreams" after a book by British-born Mexican surrealist painter Leonora Carrington.[29]
The Biennale has an attendance today of over 500,000 visitors.[30][31][32]
Role in the art market[edit]
When the Venice Biennale was founded in 1895, one of its main goals was to establish a new market for contemporary art. Between 1942 and 1968 a sales office assisted artists in finding clients and selling their work,[33] a service for which it charged 10% commission. Sales remained an intrinsic part of the biennale until 1968, when a sales ban was enacted. An important practical reason why the focus on non-commodities has failed to decouple Venice from the market is that the biennale itself lacks the funds to produce, ship and install these large-scale works. Therefore, the financial involvement of dealers is widely regarded as indispensable;[16] as they regularly front the funding for production of ambitious projects.[34] Furthermore, every other year the Venice Biennale coincides with nearby Art Basel, the world's prime commercial fair for modern and contemporary art. Numerous galleries with artists on show in Venice usually bring work by the same artists to Basel.[35]
Central Pavilion and Arsenale[edit]
The formal Biennale is based at a park, the Giardini. The Giardini includes a large exhibition hall that houses a themed exhibition curated by the Biennale's director.
Initiated in 1980, the Aperto began as a fringe event for younger artists and artists of a national origin not represented by the permanent national pavilions. This is usually staged in the Arsenale and has become part of the formal biennale programme. In 1995 there was no Aperto so a number of participating countries hired venues to show exhibitions of emerging artists. From 1999, both the international exhibition and the Aperto were held as one exhibition, held both at the Central Pavilion and the Arsenale. Also in 1999, a $1 million renovation transformed the Arsenale area into a cluster of renovated shipyards, sheds and warehouses, more than doubling the Arsenale's exhibition space of previous years.[36]
A special edition of the 54th Biennale was held at Padiglione Italia of Torino Esposizioni – Sala Nervi (December 2011 – February 2012) for the 150th Anniversary of Italian Unification. The event was directed by Vittorio Sgarbi
Tourist attractions in Warangal city & surrounds and Warangal History
The design of the gateways is redolent like the ‘thoranas’ of the Great Stupa at Sanchi. The architecture and sculpture of these temples are magnificent as no one can fail to see the rich imagination, patient industry and skilful workmanship of the builders of the temples of the Kakatiya period.
History of Kakatiya Dynasty
The 12th and the 13th centuries saw the emergence of the Kakatiyas. They were at first the feudatories of the Western Chalukyas of Kalyana, ruling over a small territory near Warangal. A ruler of this dynasty, Prola II, who ruled from 1110 AD to 1158 AD, extended his sway to the south and declared his independence. His successor Rudra (1158 - 1195 AD) pushed the kingdom to the north up to the Godavari delta. He built a fort at Warangal to serve as a second capital and faced the invasions of the Yadavas of Devagiri. The next ruler Mahadeva extended the kingdom to the coastal area. In 1199 AD, Ganapati succeeded him. He was the greatest of the Kakatiyas and the first after the Satavahanas to bring the entire Telugu area under one rule. He put an end to the rule of the Velanati Cholas in 1210 AD. He forced the Telugu Cholas of Vikramasimhapura to accept his suzerainty. He established order in his vast dominion and encouraged trade.
As Ganapati Deva had no sons, his daughter Rudramba succeeded him in 1262 AD and carried on the administration. Some generals, who did not like to be ruled by her, rebelled. She could, however, suppress the internal rebellions and external invasions with the help of loyal subordinates. The Cholas and the Yadavas suffered such set backs at her hands that they did not think of troubling her for the rest of her rule.
Prataparudra succeeded his grandmother Rudramba in 1295 AD and ruled till 1323 AD. He pushed the western border of his kingdom up to Raichur. He introduced many administrative reforms. He divided the kingdom into 75 Nayakships, which was later adopted and developed by the Rayas of Vijayanagara. In his time the territory constituting Andhra Pradesh had the first experience of a Muslim invasion. In 1303 AD, the Delhi Sultan Ala-ud-din Khilji sent an army to plunder the kingdom, but Prataparudra defeated them at Upparapalli in Karimnagar district. In 1310 AD, when another army under Malik Kafur invaded Warangal, Prataparudra yielded and agreed to pay a large tribute. In 1318 AD when Ala-ud-din Khilji died, Prataparudra withheld the tribute. It provoked another invasion of the Muslims. In 1321 AD Ghiaz-ud-din Tughlaq sent a large army under Ulugh Khan to conquer the Telugu country then called Tilling. He laid siege to Warangal, but owing to internal dissensions he called off the siege and returned to Delhi. Within a short period, he came back with a much bigger army. In spite of unpreparedness, Prataparudra fought bravely. For want of supplies, he surrendered to the enemy who sent him to Delhi as a prisoner, and he died on the way. Thus ended the Kakatiya rule, opening the gates of the Telugu land to anarchy and confusion yielding place to an alien ruler.

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

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

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

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

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

A three-year gap was left afterwards to make sure that the 1995 edition would coincide with the 100th anniversary of the Biennale.[13]
The 1993 edition was directed by Achille Bonito Oliva. In 1995, Jean Clair was appointed to be the Biennale's first non-Italian director of visual arts[20] while Germano Celant served as director in 1997.
For the Centenary in 1995, the Biennale promoted events in every sector of its activity: the 34th Festival del Teatro, the 46th art exhibition, the 46th Festival di Musica, the 52nd Mostra del Cinema.[21]
1999–present[edit]
In 1999 and 2001, Harald Szeemann directed two editions in a row (48th & 49th) bringing in a larger representation of artists from Asia and Eastern Europe and more young artists than usual and expanded the show into several newly restored spaces of the Arsenale.
In 1999 a new sector was created for live shows: DMT (Dance Music Theatre).
The 50th edition, 2003, directed by Francesco Bonami, had a record number of seven co-curators involved, including Hans Ulrich Obrist, Catherine David, Igor Zabel, Hou Hanru and Massimiliano Gioni.
The 51st edition of the Biennale opened in June 2005, curated, for the first time by two women, Maria de Corral and Rosa Martinez. De Corral organized "The Experience of Art" which included 41 artists, from past masters to younger figures. Rosa Martinez took over the Arsenale with "Always a Little Further." Drawing on "the myth of the romantic traveler" her exhibition involved 49 artists, ranging from the elegant to the profane.
In 2007, Robert Storr became the first director from the United States to curate the Biennale (the 52nd), with a show entitled Think with the Senses – Feel with the Mind. Art in the Present Tense.
Swedish curator Daniel Birnbaum was artistic director of the 2009 edition entitled "Fare Mondi // Making Worlds".
The 2011 edition was curated by Swiss curator Bice Curiger entitled "ILLUMInazioni – ILLUMInations".
The Biennale in 2013 was curated by the Italian Massimiliano Gioni. His title and theme, Il Palazzo Enciclopedico / The Encyclopedic Palace, was adopted from an architectural model by the self-taught Italian-American artist Marino Auriti. Auriti's work, The Encyclopedic Palace of the World was lent by the American Folk Art Museum and exhibited in the first room of the Arsenale for the duration of the biennale. For Gioni, Auriti's work, "meant to house all worldly knowledge, bringing together the greatest discoveries of the human race, from the wheel to the satellite," provided an analogous figure for the "biennale model itself...based on the impossible desire to concentrate the infinite worlds of contemporary art in a single place: a task that now seems as dizzyingly absurd as Auriti's dream."[22]
Curator Okwui Enwezor was responsible for the 2015 edition.[23] He was the first African-born curator of the biennial. As a catalyst for imagining different ways of imagining multiple desires and futures Enwezor commissioned special projects and programs throughout the Biennale in the Giardini. This included a Creative Time Summit, e-flux journal's SUPERCOMMUNITY, Gulf Labor Coalition, The Invisible Borders Trans-African Project and Abounaddara.[24][25]
The 2017 Biennale, titled Viva Arte Viva, was directed by French curator Christine Macel who called it an "exhibition inspired by humanism".[26] German artist Franz Erhard Walter won the Golden Lion for best artist, while Carolee Schneemann was awarded a posthumous Golden Lion for Lifetime Achievement.[27]
The 2019 Biennale, titled May You Live In Interesting Times, was directed by American-born curator Ralph Rugoff.[28]
The 2022 edition was curated by Italian curator Cecilia Alemani entitled "The Milk of Dreams" after a book by British-born Mexican surrealist painter Leonora Carrington.[29]
The Biennale has an attendance today of over 500,000 visitors.[30][31][32]
Role in the art market[edit]
When the Venice Biennale was founded in 1895, one of its main goals was to establish a new market for contemporary art. Between 1942 and 1968 a sales office assisted artists in finding clients and selling their work,[33] a service for which it charged 10% commission. Sales remained an intrinsic part of the biennale until 1968, when a sales ban was enacted. An important practical reason why the focus on non-commodities has failed to decouple Venice from the market is that the biennale itself lacks the funds to produce, ship and install these large-scale works. Therefore, the financial involvement of dealers is widely regarded as indispensable;[16] as they regularly front the funding for production of ambitious projects.[34] Furthermore, every other year the Venice Biennale coincides with nearby Art Basel, the world's prime commercial fair for modern and contemporary art. Numerous galleries with artists on show in Venice usually bring work by the same artists to Basel.[35]
Central Pavilion and Arsenale[edit]
The formal Biennale is based at a park, the Giardini. The Giardini includes a large exhibition hall that houses a themed exhibition curated by the Biennale's director.
Initiated in 1980, the Aperto began as a fringe event for younger artists and artists of a national origin not represented by the permanent national pavilions. This is usually staged in the Arsenale and has become part of the formal biennale programme. In 1995 there was no Aperto so a number of participating countries hired venues to show exhibitions of emerging artists. From 1999, both the international exhibition and the Aperto were held as one exhibition, held both at the Central Pavilion and the Arsenale. Also in 1999, a $1 million renovation transformed the Arsenale area into a cluster of renovated shipyards, sheds and warehouses, more than doubling the Arsenale's exhibition space of previous years.[36]
A special edition of the 54th Biennale was held at Padiglione Italia of Torino Esposizioni – Sala Nervi (December 2011 – February 2012) for the 150th Anniversary of Italian Unification. The event was directed by Vittorio Sgarbi

Para la preparación de la prueba de Selectividad de Andalucía del curso 2015-2016 se ofrece aquí una selección de doce ejercicios prácticos (un mapa de localización, ocho mapas temáticos, un perfil topográfico, un fotoplano y una comparativa de pirámides de población) que, a nuestro juicio, cuentan con grandes posibilidades de ser escogidos para las propuestas del curso 2015-2016. Para facilitar la edición (y su consulta) la hemos fraccionado en dos partes: Geografía Física por una parte y Geografía Humana y Económica por otra.
Conviene indicar que las informaciones ofrecidas por este medio tienen exclusivamente carácter ilustrativo, y no originarán derechos ni expectativas de derechos. En palabras de Michael Crichton «No podemos evaluar el futuro, ni podemos predecirlo. Estos son eufemismos. Solo podemos hacer suposiciones. Una suposición bien fundada sigue siendo solo una suposición.»
Nuestras suposiciones se basan en lo siguiente:
-Prácticas que han aparecido en numerosas ocasiones.
-Prácticas que se han repetido en los dos últimos juegos de pruebas.
-Prácticas que llevan muchos cursos sin ser seleccionadas.
Evidentemente, el número de criterios podría prolongarse hasta el infinito y parecer (o ser) cada vez más absurdos. El mejor ejemplo es «ejercicios que nadie pensaría que iban a volverlos a escoger». Pero este es más bien un anticriterio. Volvemos a insistir en lo aleatorio y personal de nuestras previsiones, pero arriesgarse a predecir es mejor que insistir en prepararse todo el repertorio de mapas y demás ejercicios.
Un indicio que nos parece digno de confianza es el análisis de los ejercicios aparecidos en el juego de exámenes de 2014-2015. Así, no se registran novedades, recurriendo bien a propuestas de los años inmediatamente anteriores, bien a esos ejercicios «veteranos» que aparecen en las convocatorias de toda la vida. De hecho, cuando en estos casos existen varias versiones, se ha optado siempre por la que cuenta con más apariciones. La voluntad de ayudar al alumnado parece, pues, evidente.
Lamentablemente, en el juego de propuestas 2013 – 2014 el número de prácticas sin precedentes o remozadas de arriba a abajo asciende a nada menos que siete. Y es que la selectividad andaluza es, en líneas generales y a largo plazo, conservadora y predecible, pero entre un año y otro puede variar de criterio por completo. Dicho sea de paso, tampoco es que la Ponencia sea un modelo de coherencia.
Si se registraran novedades (Dios no lo quiera), una página que se ha transformado en la cantera de la selectividad andaluza es la sección didáctica del Instituto Geográfico Nacional denominada «España a través de los mapas».
Este es el enlace de la página en cuestión:
Evidentemente, lo último que habría que realizar a estas alturas es analizar la cartografía publicada en esta web. Por lo demás, allí aparecen los mapas, pero no las preguntas que se realizan sobre ello.
Lo razonable (y lo previsible) sería esperar que en este curso no aparecieran novedades, dado que el actual modelo de selectividad concluye este año, Que este estado de expectativa pase a ser una realidad es algo que está por ver.
Pasando ya a nuestras previsiones, señalar que al final nos hemos decidido por doce pruebas. No se trata de un ranquin (pues no llegamos a discernir cuál de ellas cuenta con más posibilidades de ser elegidas); tampoco se trata de una selección por temas (bien que más o menos la selección se ajusta a un panorama sobre la asignatura). Tampoco hemos tratado de ofrecer una selección representativa de los distintos tipos de las figuraciones cartográficas y estadísticas que caracterizan al repertorio de la selectividad andaluza (aunque ha acabado pareciéndose mucho a esto último). En fin, que nada más lejos de nuestra intención que reconstruir el juego de doce pruebas (y doce ejercicios prácticos) del presente curso. Se trata simplemente de doce prácticas que cuentan con bastantes posibilidades de ser elegidas. Su ordenación sigue el esquema tradicional de la sucesión de contenidos de la asignatura, y no refleja ni sus posibilidades ni su importancia.
Hemos incluido algunos ejercicios que fueron elegidos en los exámenes titulares de junio y septiembre del curso 2013-2014. En principio esta circunstancia debía vetarlos para el curso siguiente. Pero en junio de 2013 se escogió el mismo mapa de las pruebas de junio del año anterior. La veda de los cálculos más desaforados había caído para siempre.
Un último apunte. La elección de los exámenes de junio y de septiembre se realiza recurriendo al azar (o eso nos cuentan). Por tanto igual acertamos ocho de las doce pruebas, pero fallamos en las cuatro que acaban como exámenes titulares. Y esto es válido para toda estadística o visión del futuro: al basarse en cálculos realizados tanto en las propuestas que acabaron como exámenes, como las que quedaron desechadas, se corre el riego de acertar lo que precisamente va a quedarse en el tintero.
________________________________________________
Mapa de altitudes sobre el nivel del mar de España
Los mapas orográficos con números son una de las especialidades de la selectividad de Andalucía. También lo es el recurrir a las pruebas de reserva del curso anterior. Así, este ejercicio figuró en el juego de exámenes del curso 2013-2014. En el 2015 fue escogido como examen de septiembre, hecho que, en principio, limita (pero no excluye) sus posibilidades de ser escogido en el presente curso.
El mapa procede de la sección didáctica del Instituto Geográfico Nacional denominada «España a través de los mapas».
Las preguntas que se realizan sobre él son las siguientes:
-Localice en el mapa las unidades de relieve señaladas numéricamente del 1 al 5.
1.-Cordillera Cantábrica, 2.-Submeseta Norte / Cuenca del Duero, 3.- Sistema Ibérico, 4.- Depresión del Ebro, 5.- Isla de Tenerife.
-Identifique y describa las características de los relieves señalados con las letras A y B.
A-Sierra Morena caracterizado por el relieve herciniano y B-Cordillera Penibética formada, en lo fundamental, por materiales paleozoicos (de la orogenia herciniana igualmente) levantados de nuevo en la orogenia alpina.
-Desarrolle las principales características de las unidades exteriores a la Meseta.
Las unidades exteriores son depresiones (Ebro, Guadalquivir y Tajo [esta última en territorio portugués] y cordilleras (Pirineos, Montes Vascos, Costero-Catalanas y Béticas). Unas y otras formaban parte de fondos marinos y fueron elevadas en la orogenia alpina. Las primeras acabaron por rellenarse con materiales como arcillas y calizas procedentes de la erosión de las segundas.
-Explique el origen de la formación de las principales zonas altitudinales que se observan en el mapa.
Las principales zonas altitudinales son los Pirineos, las Béticas y el Teide.
Las dos primeras presentan un roquedo paleozoico elevado de nuevo en la orogenia alpina y retocados por el glaciarismo en el cuaternario. Aquí se localizan las montañas más altas de la Península: El Mulhacén (3478 metros) en Sierra Nevada y el Aneto (3.404 metros) en el macizo de la Maladeta.
El Teide presenta rasgos totalmente distintos. Se trata de un estratovolcán que se eleva hasta los 3718 metros (aunque llegó a elevarse a cotas mayores en el pasado). Desde finales de la era terciaria se produce una sucesión de distintos edificios volcánicos, siendo el actual el quinto, con una antigüedad que se remonta al millón de años.
________________________________________________
Perfil topográfico de la Península Ibérica
El perfil topográfico lleva rodando por las pruebas de la selectividad andaluza desde 2003, siendo la séptima vez que fue escogido en el 2014. Dos de estas propuestas acabaron convertidas en exámenes titulares.
El esquema DACEB 3241 o más bien D3A2C4E1V se repite invariablemente en todas las manifestaciones de esta prueba.
La representación gráfica ha tenido que ser completamente rehecha dada la nula calidad de la reproducción en los exámenes.
Las preguntas que se realizan sobre él son las siguientes:
-Enuncie, ordenados de norte a sur, la letra y el nombre correspondiente de los sistemas de relieve que aparecen en el gráfico.
D: Cordillera Cantábrica.
A: Sistema Central.
C: Montes de Toledo.
E: Sierra Morena.
B: Cordilleras Béticas [Penibética].
-Enumere, ordenados de Norte-Sur, el número y nombre correspondiente, de los ríos que fluyen en los valles del gráfico.
3: Río Duero.
2: Río Tajo.
1: Río Guadiana.
4: Río Guadalquivir.
-Diga el nombre, y los números correspondientes, de los ríos que aparecen en el gráfico, ordenados de Sur a Norte.
4: Guadalquivir.
1: Guadiana
2: Tajo.
3: Duero.
-Describa las características del río que fluye en el valle señalado con el número 4.
Se trata del Guadalquivir, el quinto río más largo de la península ibérica con 657 km. Su cuenca se extiende ocupa la mayor parte de la comunidad de Andalucía, bien que se extiende por Extremadura, Castilla-La Mancha y Murcia. Se trata de un río con régimen pluvial-nival en su primer tramos (Sierra de Cazorla) y subtropical en el resto. Presenta un caudal considerable (164 m3/s en Sevilla). El principal afluente es el Genil, río que puede paragonarse con el Guadalquivir tanto por el caudal como por la extensión de la Cuenca.
El Guadalquivir desemboca en el océano Atlántico en un amplio estuario. Anteriormente lo realizaba en una amplia bahía, conocida por los geográfos antiguos como «Lago Ligustino» y que fue transformada progresivamente en un área de marismas por el continuo aporte de los sedimentos.
-De los sistemas de relieve, diga, con letra y nombre, cuáles de ellos son:
Interiores a la Meseta.
(A) Sistema Central y (C) Montes de Toledo.
Periféricos a la Meseta.
(D) Cordillera Cantábrica y (E) Sierra Morena.
Exteriores a la Meseta.
Cordilleras Béticas.
-¿Qué ríos de los que ha identificado desembocan en el Océano Atlántico?
Todos los ríos que aparecen en el corte (Duero, Tajo, Guadiana y Guadalquivir) tributan en el Océano Atlántico, a causa de la presencia del Sistema Ibérico que divide España en dos mitades asimétricas, y a causa también de la suave inclinación que presenta la Meseta hacia el Océano. La forma triangular de la Depresión del Guadalquivir con la base en las costas atlánticas y la parte de mayor altura en el vértice, explica que el Guadalquivir sea paralelo a los ríos mesetarios.
-Analice la estructura del relieve peninsular guiándose por perfil topográfico que se presenta.
El relieve español se estructura en la Meseta, zona de tierras de elevada altitud (entre 600 y 800 metros) divididas en dos sectores por el Sistema Central (A): la submeseta norte y la submeseta sur, esta última ligeramente accidentada por los Montes de Toledo (C). Estas cadenas montañosas se denominan «sierras interiores».
La Meseta está circundada por los rebordes montañosos. En el corte aparecen la Cordillera Cantábrica (D) al norte y Sierra Morena (E) al sur. Como se comprueba en el perfil, la Cordillera Cantábrica presenta mayor altura y un relieve más abrupto que Sierra Morena.
Más allá de los rebordes montañosos se sitúan los relieves exteriores a la Meseta. Se trata de depresiones y cordilleras. En el corte figuran la Depresión del Guadalquivir (4) y las Cordilleras Béticas (B). Como se advierte en el perfil, la primera es la zona con menor altitud de España mientras que en la segunda se sitúa la mayor altura de la Península: El Mulhacén (3478 metros) en Sierra Nevada
________________________________________________
Unidades litológicas de la Península Ibérica
Desde 2005, este mapa ha aparecido en cinco ocasiones, siendo la última una de las propuesta de 2015. Fue escogido como examen de septiembre en 2009. Ni las cuestiones ni los números han variado a lo largo (y a lo ancho de sus apariciones).
La representación gráfica ha tenido que ser completamente rehecha dada la escasa calidad de la reproducción en los exámenes.
Las preguntas que se realizan sobre él son las siguientes:
-Enumere, por separado, con sus números y nombre: las unidades interiores de la Meseta; las periféricas de la Meseta; y las exteriores a la Meseta.
Unidades Interiores de la Meseta:
-9 (Cuenca de la Submeseta Norte).
-10 (Sistema Central).
-11 (Cuenca de la Submeseta Sur).
- 12 (Montes de Toledo).
Unidades Periféricas a la Meseta:
- 1 (Macizo Galaico).
- 2 (Sector Occidental de la Cordillera Cantábrica).
- 3 (Sector Oriental de la Cordillera Cantábrica).
- 8 (Sistema Ibérico).
- 13 (Sierra Morena).
Unidades Exteriores a la Meseta:
- 4 (Pirineo Axial)
- 5 (Prepirineo).
- 6 (Cordillera Costero-Catalana).
- 7 (Depresión del Ebro)
- 14 (Depresión del Guadalquivir).
- 15 (Cordillera Subbética)
- 16 (Cordillera Penibética)
- ¿Qué Comunidades Autónomas tienen parte o todo su territorio asentado sobre la Iberia silícea en el Oeste peninsular?
Galicia, Asturias, Castilla-León, Extremadura y Andalucía.
-¿Qué relación básica guarda cada una de estas tres Iberias con distintos usos y aprovechamientos del territorio?
En la Iberia Silícea los suelos tienen poca profundidad y resultan muy pobres para la agricultura. Predomina la actividad ganadera, destacando el paisaje de la dehesa.
En la Iberia Caliza se encuentran paisajes escarpados en el que se sitúan las principales cadenas montañosas de la Península, como los Pirineos. Los únicos aprovechamientos agrarios son la explotación forestal y alguna ganadería.
En la Iberia Arcillosa predomina un relieve básicamente horizontal, apto para los cereales, viñedo y otros cultivos extensivos. De hecho la mayor parte de la actividad agrícola hispana se concentra en estos suelos.

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

La pintura que hemos escogido como emblema es una obra de la pintora inglesa Dora Carrington titulado «Paisaje español con montañas» («Spanish Landscape with Mountains»). Se trata de un óleo sobre lienzo pintado en torno a 1924.
Sus medidas son 55,9 x 66,7 centímetros. Pertenece a la colección de la Tate Gallery (Londres, Inglaterrra, Reino Unido). Entró en la institución en el 2004 como legado de la escritora Frances Partridge. Frances (de soltera Marshall) se casó en 1933 con Ralph Partridge, desconsolado viudo de la propia Carrington. Este vínculo probablemente explique la forma en la que el cuadro acabó en mano de Frances. Fuerza es decir que Dora se suicidó en 1932.
Con bastantes libertades, el óleo debe reproducir el paisaje de Yegen, municipio de las Alpujarras granadina o de sus alrededores. La pintora acudió allí en 1924 (o el año interior) al ser invitada por Gerald Brenan. Este escritor (a quién le negamos olímpicamente el título de «hispanista») mantenía un amor obsesivo (y no correspondido) por Carrington. Y es que los ingleses cuando se autoexilian o hacen viajes de largo recorrido por el extranjero (léase «Continente») llevan bien cargadas las maletas de traumas, conflictos personales y amores difíciles.

KVG is the largest local bus company in NVP, based in Ribnitz-Damgarten. Seen passing the 15th century Rostocker Tor gate at the western approach to the town, a replacement for a much earlier entry point. A new bus depot is located at the western approaches to the town. The bus is Setra, Kennzeichen NVP RL 175, on a Dienstfahrt, or empty working from the garage. KVG is rather an uninspiring company abbreviation....it stands for Motor Transport Company with no hint of place. I wonder why they chose this one? Perhaps to keep the name neutral when Ribnitz-Damgarten and Grimmen companies were combined.
In the background, flats of the Boddenstrasse estate ,commenced 1956, but taller buildings date from the 1970s,which housed many of the 2000 workers at the huge former VEB Faserplattenwerke making fibreboard on the land of the former Bachmann aeroplane works further west beside the KVG depot. More about the corruption following privatisation of the firm and ownership by Knyder of Bison-Werke in Hamburg, eventual bankruptcy and worker occupation here and especially here
After being sold for DM1, millions of Marks of publicly invested money went up in smoke..well actually ended up in Swiss banks...in a classical Rover style sting.

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

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

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.

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

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

Policies must change to achieve equality between women and men, says Parliament in a non-legislative resolution passed by 441 votes to 205 with 52 abstentions on Tuesday. Despite progress on some gender inequality issues, much remains to be done to reduce pay gaps, remove “glass ceilings” on women’s careers, remedy their lack of economic independence, improve their work/life balance, including parental leave, and protect their rights and access to contraception and abortion.
"The verdict is less than glorious: change is too slow and women's rights are suffering the effects of this. But the majority in favour of the resolution shows that the European Parliament backs the fight for wage equality, efforts to combat violence against women, agree on maternity leave proposals and safeguard access to abortion", said rapporteur Marc Tarabella (S&D, BE) after the vote.

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

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

O ÚNICO OUTRO CIRURGIÃO TAILANDÊS CONFIADO PELAS BRASILEIRAS ATÉ ENTÃO ERA INACESSÍVEL PORQUE COBRAVA PELO MENOS 3 VEZES MAIS".
No ano de 2004 eu realizei uma cirurgia de redesignação sexual no exterior após o fim do ano letivo deste ano e o último compromisso de trabalho. Aproximadamente, eu viajei dia 22, cheguei no dia 23, mas não pude operar no mesmo dia porque o cirurgião estava cansado por ter realizado outra operação no mesmo dia. Acordei operada no Natal daquele ano, durante a ocasião do Tsunami, lá na Tailândia e me diziam que eu era a primeira brasileira a realizar a cirurgia de redesignação sexual com o médico cirurgião Kamol Pansristum.

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

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

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

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

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

6- Diretora Vera Lúcia Castelar (mat. 53165) preparou relatório técnico criminoso em 2002 para me afastar da Escola Municipal São Bentos nas 2 matrículas. Eu fui ameaçada de ruína completa por causa deste relatório pela subsecretária de educação Rosângela Maria Gonçalves de Oliveira em 2002 e ameaçada de morte caso chegasse a 100 metros da escola em que eu trabalhava sofrendo discriminação. Após eu pedir reparação pelos DANOS, AMEAÇAS, CONSTRANGIMENTOS E TRAUMAS que me ocorreram por causa deste relatório técnico analisado também pelos 8 supervisores educacionais entre eles Jorge Silva (mat. 54368) , Antônio Carlos Lustosa (mat. 54434) e Joelma Milão, o relatório sumiu dentro da secretaria municipal de educação de Belford Roxo sendo anunciado em 2005 como se ele nunca tivesse existido. Eu continuava sendo tratada como homem na secretaria de educação mesmo após cirurgia transgenital.
7- Em 2005 a reportagem do Jornal O Dia informava que eu havia começado a tomar hormônios 3 anos antes em processo transexualizador. Mesmo após cirurgia e decisão judicial o nome social ainda não era mudado no diário da escola e na ficha funcional. Nesse momento o diretor da escola municipal Jorge Ayres me proibia de usar saia ou vestido conforme relatei em processo de 2006.
8- Em 2007, voltei a caminhar para o agravamento do meu estado mental revivendo traumas do passado na rede de educação em Belford Roxo após orientadora Conceição dizer que eu deveria sair da escola por ser transexual, promover inquérito administrativo disciplinar contra mim, ameaça de morte e dificuldades como abaixo-assinado para sair da escola.
20/08/2007 - A Sra Faiza Khálida apresentava tristeza, falta de prazer nas atividades, choro fácil, irritabilidade, impaciência com os alunos (era professora), insônia, ansiedade, cefaleias frequentes E DIFICULDADES PARA CUMPRIR SUAS TAREFAS NO TRABALHO from Ruim no Psicológico .por PRECONCEITO, BULLYING, INJUSTIÇA
Usuária Faiza Khálida Fagundes Coutinho - "a pressão social e o constrangimento sofridos fizeram com que apresentasse sintomas de depressão, relatados pela psiquiatra no prontuário da usuária, e este fato a fez deixar de comparecer ao trabalho". IEDE from Ruim no Psicológico .por PRECONCEITO, BULLYING, INJUSTIÇA
9- Em dezembro de 2007, Procurador-Geral de Belford Roxo Lorival Almeida de Oliveira e José Domingos Lucena abriram inquérito promovido pela orientadora Conceição que me dizia que eu não podia estar na escola Jorge Ayres por ser transexual. A advogada da Secretaria Estadual de Direitos Difusos pediu cópia do processo para ela poder me defender. Não me foi permitido ter cópia do processo nem mesmo quando fui intimada a assinar a punição administrativa na secretaria de educação, sendo lá tratada como homem.
10- O contexto profissional em 2008 me causava abatimento e depressão, os meus 2 aparelhos de som que eu utilizava para dar aulas foram roubados ao mesmo tempo nas 2 escolas municipais em que eu lecionava. A orientadora da escola teria tratado com o rapaz que entrou na escola para danificar minha câmera digital na sala dos professores na frente dela.
11- O relatório discriminatório da diretora Vera Lucia Castelar em 2003 me ocasionou diversos danos inclusive psicológicos, mentais e administrativos, este relatório foi usado para me ameaçar, coagir e chantagear. No relatório técnico da diretora constava a mentira que eu não havia entregado o planejamento. Isso causava indignação inclusive da professora que havia entregado o planejamento junto comigo.
CLICAR AQUI TAMBÉM PARA LER SOBRE OS DANOS ME OCASIONADOS PELO RELATÓRIO TÉCNICO DISCRIMINATÓRIO DE 2002 DA DIRETORA VERA CASTELAR SOBRE MIM.
12- Em 2008 eu não conseguia desenvolver as minhas atividades devido ao meu quadro mental. A pressão social e o constrangimento sofrido fizeram com que eu apresentasse sintomas como depressão relatados em prontuários médicos, e este fato me fez deixar de comparecer ao trabalho.
13- Secretaria Municipal de Educação de Belford Roxo e Procuradoria Municipal silenciaram o preconceito que eu passei na rede pública de educação.
14- O julgamento fundamentalista religioso moral condenatório da identidade de gênero e da orientação sexual, piadinhas, deboches, ofensas, agressões e desrespeitos no trabalho me causavam cefaleia, choro, tristeza, ideação suicida e depressão desde 2003. Esse preconceito social cisnormativo me levava ao sofrimento e a ideação suicida.
15- A médica psiquiatra atestou em maio de 2008 que dificilmente haveria solução do meu quadro de adoecimento mental porque não havia resolução dos problemas sociais e referentes ao meu trabalho que me estressavam.
16- Para me condenar em inquérito administrativo disciplinar, procurador-geral de Belofrd Roxo Lorival Almeida de Oliveira mentiu em processo declarando que eu havia recebido cópia de processo, não permitindo que a advogada da Secretaria Estadual de Direitos Humanos e Difusos do Estado do Rio de Janeiro recebesse cópia do processo.
17- Orientadora pedagógica mobilizava para me tirar da escola. Vivenciava o isolamento.
18- Funcionários públicos municipais de Belford Roxo desrespeitavam a identidade de gênero de transexuais e transgêneros.
19- Transfobia que sofri no banheiro da Prefeitura em 13/10/2008 com o subsecretário Paulo Allevato RG 3473270 IFP.
20- Uma semana após eu ser levada em 2009 a secretaria municipal de educação de Belford Roxo por uma colega também funcionária pública do município mostrando ao subsecretário de educação Miguel de Sousa Ramiro o laudo médico atestando que eu estava comprometida para o trabalho e para a vida social, o subsecretário municipal de educação Miguel de Sousa Ramiro me disse pelo seu telefone celular que esqueceria que ele tinha conhecimento do laudo médico psiquiátrico porque ele tinha que obedecer as ordens do supervisor Jorge Silva (mat. 54368).
21- Em tudo o que me acontecia no meu trabalho de professora da rede municipal de Belford Roxo, nos documentos e relatórios administrativos, não era admitida essa realidade que eu enfrentava com todos os medos, embates, incertezas, discriminações, constrangimentos, prejuízos emocionais e psicológicos. Na escola, eu me sentia um ser do outro mundo em espetáculo circense, alvo do julgamento, conceitos e preconceitos de todos os agentes. As mudanças hormonais, físicas e cerebrais também não eram levadas em conta quando se avaliava minha conduta profissional. Eu era uma funcionária pública julgada fora da minha realidade que eu sou, fui e vivia. Somadas as alterações físicas eu tinha osteopenia, hérnias de disco com irradiação nas pernas e braços, fraturas, grande redução e aumento de peso chegando aos 100 kg, pressão alta e baixa. Eu atravessava um processo transexualizador. O direito à saúde que eu tinha por ser diagnosticada transexual não era apenas a questão da cirurgia transgenital paga com minhas economias de trabalho. Era um processo de adequação física, psicológica,mental, profissional, afetiva e social.
22- Relatório, ocorrência, inquérito, reunião e abaixo-assinado pela minha saída da escola municipal Jorge Ayres de Lima a partir da chegada da orientadora Conceição em 2007.
23- História - professora Faiza Khálida da rede municipal de educação de Belford Roxo.
24- Procuradora Municipal Débora Fernandes C. Pinto (mat. 80/28.585) indicada e fundamentalista religiosa, de posse do meu laudo médico psiquiátrico comprobatório de transtorno bipolar incapacitante, CRM, endereço e telefone da médica que me avaliava desde maio de 2008 e relato sobre problemas sociais relacionados a transexualidade, transfobia, homofobia, assédio e bullying, ignorou tudo e negou por 2 vezes a solicitação determinando que eu ficasse excluída do serviço público de Belford Roxo municipal.
25- A minha doença transtorno bipolar com sintomas psicóticos.
Louvado O Senhor Jesus Cristo para sempre.

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

We arrived at Innisfree as soon as it opened at 10AM one mid-August morning when the entire Northeastern US was in the middle of a record heatwave. Despite the heat and humidity, we were able to make a quick 1.5 mile circle on the path around the deep glacial lake at the heart of this 150 acre garden before we wilted and had to return to our air conditioned car. The harsh mid-day light made photography challenging, as you can see. We learned that Innisfree, said by some to be one of the world's Ten Great Gardens, opens at sunrise on three occasions each year, and we are already planning another trip to the Hudson River Valley in the future when we hope we can see and photograph this amazing place under better conditions.
"Like the pyramids of Egypt or the Great Wall of China, Innisfree helps us to define what we mean by ‘civilization’. It’s one of the few places in this world that lived up to — nay, exceeded — my expectations."
David Wheeler, Editor, Hortus (2013)
"In the late 1920s, Walter Beck and his wife, avid gardener and heiress Marion Burt Beck, began work on Innisfree, their country residence in Millbrook, New York. Walter Beck’s fascination with Asian art influenced his painting, the collecting he and his wife pursued, and their ideas on garden design. In the 1930s, Beck discovered the work of 8th-century Chinese poet, painter and garden maker Wang Wei. Studying scroll paintings of his famed garden, the Wangchuan Villa, Beck observed that Wang created carefully defined, inwardly focused gardens and garden vignettes within a larger, naturalistic landscape. Wang’s place-making technique — christened “cup gardens,” by Beck — influenced centuries of Chinese and Japanese garden design. It is also the principal design motif in the Innisfree landscape. Like his Chinese predecessor, Beck created three-dimensional pictures in the garden, incorporating both rocks from the site and horticultural advice from his wife. Unlike Wang Wei, or perhaps more familiar figures like Lawrence Johnston, who used his cup-like rooms at Hidcote in England to draw one through a sequence of events and create an overall sense of place, Beck focused more on individual compositions. Relating these to each other and to the landscape as a whole was the genius of Lester Collins."
The genius of this place lies not so much in the ideas which the designers formulated for the cup gardens, many of which are disarmingly simple, but in the way they have been maintained over the years. Essentially, everything is allowed to settle into the prevailing spirit of the place; if it does not, it is removed. It is this sensitivity, care and attention to the qualities of landscape, natural and made, that make Innisfree such a memorable success.
Tim Richardson, Great Gardens of America (2000)
Western gardens are usually designed to embrace a view of the whole. Little is hidden. The garden, like a stage set, is there in its entirety, its overall design revealed in a glance. The traditional Chinese garden is usually designed so that a view of the whole is impossible. [It] requires a stroll over serpentine, seemingly aimless arteries. The observer walks into a series of episodes, like Alice through the looking glass."
Lester Collins, Innisfree: An American Garden (1994)

Geoffroy normally works with art formats like the EMERGENCY ROOM
to stimulate urgent expression by artist about today 's emergencies :
www.emergencyrooms.org/formats.html
www.colonel.dk contact : emergencyrooms@gmail.comThierry Geoffroy/ Colonel will be exhibiting in the museum Kunsthalle Mannheim from october 2018 part of the exhibition Konstruktion der Welt .Kunst und Ökonomie
Constructing the World: Art and Economy 1919-1939 and 2008-2018
10/12/18 to 02/03/19
Ten years after the peak of the global financial crisis in 2008, which profoundly shook the economic systems of America and Europe and had a lasting effect on present-day life, this topical exhibition is the first to illustrate the economy’s dramatic influence on art and to make global comparisons, demonstrating these in an analysis of two separate eras. Economic phenomena in the classical modernism of the 1920s and 30s are not only explored by focusing on art from the German Weimar Republic, the Soviet Union, and the United States, but also juxtaposed with artists of the present day.
Curatorial team: Dr. Eckhart Gillen (Berlin), Dr. Ulrike Lorenz, Dr. Sebastian Baden
Project Lead: Dr. Inge Herold, Assistence: Lisa Valentina Riedel, M. A. mult., Elisabeth Bohnet, M.A.
How does contemporary art reflect the world of work today? The catalogue for the second part of the exhibition Constructing the World at the Kunsthalle Mannheim takes a look at this question. The focus of it is primarily on artistic positions of the past decade that deal with the social, political, and economic effects of the most recent economic crisis after 2008. The works address and interrogate new production conditions and developments on the labor market as well as political conflicts. The accompanying publication provides fascinating insights into the diverse artistic positions.

The Montblanc Patron of Art Homage to Moctezuma I.
The Limited Edition collection honours the remarkable artistic and architectural achievements of Aztec culture, and the influence of one of its great leaders, Moctezuma I.
Every spring since 1992, Montblanc introduces the Patron of Art pen collection which pays tribute to those who exemplify the importance of art patronage throughout the world. The stellar names include Peggy Guggenheim, Pope Julius II and the latest being Roman emperor Publius Aelius Hadrianus. The Homage to Hadrian pen collection features gold-coated cones and cap tops, a reflection of the Roman buildings commissioned by Hadrian. This year’s Patron of Art Homage to Moctezuma I continues to be a fantastic example of Montblanc’s expertise in pen making.
Moctezuma I (1398-1469) also known as Moctezuma Ilhuicamina was the second Aztec emperor and fifth king of Tenochtitlan, ruling from 1440 to 1469. Under his reign, Tenochtitlan, which is now the center of Mexico City, blossomed thanks to social, economical and political reforms. The limited edition designs are released as part of the Patron of Art Homage that honours the remarkable artistic and architectural achievements of Moctezuma I. To coincide with the release of the Patron of Art Homage to Moctezuma I Limited Editions, Montblanc is introducing a fine stationery notebook in red calfskin Saffiano leather embossed with traditional Aztec motifs.
The latest Montblanc Patron of the Art Limited Edition 2020 collection is their Ode to Moctezuma 1 the ruler, who has shaped the image of Aztec culture and remains a great inspiration to write our own legacy. I really hope that the glyphs that are on the side of the fountain pen were chosen for their content and not just for an artistic flair. Contacting a Mayan scholar such as Floyd G Lounsbury would have upgraded their end product. I will try to locate and contact his colleagues to spread the word as they should have sufficiently deep pockets to drop the penny. Limited to 87 pieces.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Floyd_Lounsbury
Beginning in 1938 with his contributions to the Green Bay, Wisconsin-based Oneida Language and Folklore Project, while he was still an undergraduate, Floyd Lounsbury sustained a lifelong interest in indigenous languages—especially those, such as Oneida and Cherokee, in the Iroquoian family. His doctoral dissertation, published in 1953 as Oneida Verb Morphology, remains to this day the scholar’s bible for the basic structure and terminology of Iroquoian languages.
Iroquoian linguistics was not, however, Lounsbury’s only academic focus. He worked in acoustic phonetics and speech recognition; he refined new ways to teach linguistics, particularly with respect to field methods; he critiqued lexicostatistics and glottochronology; he wrote on the psychology of language; and he published on the history of anthropology. He was one of the most sought-after and influential anthropological linguists of his time.
Born and raised in Wisconsin farming communities, Lounsbury enrolled at the University of Wisconsin–Madison in 1932. He took nearly a decade to complete his undergraduate program because of the Great Depression’s economic necessities, but the extended period also allowed him to come in contact with a wide array of linguists and anthropologists and to adopt a thoughtful and measured approach to undergraduate education. Lounsbury majored in mathematics but also studied languages—primarily German but also Latin, Greek, Scandinavian languages, and Old Irish—along with phonetics, phonology, philology, and emerging theories of structuralist linguistics. After receiving his Ph.D. in anthropology from Yale University in 1949, Lounsbury accepted an appointment to its Department of Anthropology and remained at Yale until his retirement in 1979. Whether in classes, conferences, workshops, or personal conversation, Lounsbury’s students and colleagues considered him ever humble, generous, and insightful, with a prodigious memory for detail, a wide-ranging curiosity, and a formidable intellect.

Fountain Pen Patron of Art Homage to Moctezuma I Limited Edition 4810. USD$13,000.00
Limited to 87 pieces.
www.montblanc.com/en-ca/collection/writing-instruments/pa...
Moctezuma I was crowned ruler of the great Aztec Empire in 1440, thereby ushering in the golden age of the Aztecs. During his reign, he shaped the image of the Aztec state that we are familiar with today – one rich in culture and mythology. The capital city of Tenochtitlán, today’s Mexico City, blossomed under his rule. The Montblanc Patron of Art Homage to Moctezuma I Limited Edition 4810 with champagne-tone gold-coated fittings is dedicated to this supreme ruler of one of the most special cultures in world history. The overall design is inspired by an "atlatl", an Aztec spear-throwing device. The shape of the cone, refined with a hammer finish, is based on an Aztec sacrificial knife with an obsidian blade. The lacquer colors – petrol and carmine red – are inspired by the colors of the royal cloak. Two hieroglyphs decorating the cap symbolize the years of Moctezuma I's reign. The handcrafted Au 750 solid gold nib is adorned with a fine engraving inspired by the Aztec glyph for the city of Tenochtitlán: a three-armed cactus with a royal diadem and two scrolls.
Features
Clip: Champagne-tone gold-coated clip
Barrel: Red lacquered barrel
Cap: Pattern on cap underneath translucent petrol lacquer
NIB: Handcrafted Au 750 / 18 K solid gold, champagne-tone gold-coated nib with special design.
Montblanc Patron of Art Limited Edition 8
This edition, which comprises just eight pieces, is all about the pageantry of Moctezuma I and the Templo Mayor. The pen features an 18-karat champagne-tone gold cap whose elongated shape is set with diamonds, garnets, green tsavorites and multi-coloured sapphires. It is also decorated with a hand engraving of the winged Huitzilopochtli, patron god of the Aztecs.
Three-dimensional engravings of an eagle and cactus represent the foundation myth of the Aztec capital, while the two double-headed snakes symbolize renewal, fertility and luck. The spear-shaped clip is embellished with a triangular-cut green jade, and the cap crown sparkles with a Montblanc diamond. The barrel of the writing instrument is made of dark red jasper, with 18-karat champagne-tone gold inlays.
Montblanc Patron of Art Limited Edition 87 - 2020
This version is limited to just 87 pieces in homage to 1987, the year when the Templo Mayor was added to the UNESCO World Heritage list. The Montblanc Patron of Art Limited Edition 87 employs turquoise, which is a familiar stone used in Aztec decoration, and Central American cocobolo wood, a reference to the material used to make the traditional atlatl.
The mosaic is handcrafted, making every one of the pieces in the edition unique. The mother-of-pearl Montblanc emblem is embedded in an engraving of a traditional Aztec sun disc on the cap crown.
The handcrafted 18-karat gold gold nib is engraved with a glyph denoting the heart, a symbol of sacrifice. A further glyph engraved represents the second name of Moctezuma I: Ilhuicamina (meaning, “He who shoots an arrow into the sky.”).
Montblanc Patron of Art Limited Edition 888
The colors of this edition–turquoise and carmine–were used in fashioning royal garments. The sterling silver pen cap is artfully engraved with a traditional Aztec décor, and the lacquered barrel is engraved with a pattern again reminiscent of Moctezuma I’s cloak. It features four lines in 18-karat champagne-tone gold, evoking the directions that radiated from the Templo Mayor, the main temple and the literal center of the Aztec world.
The spear-shaped clip features an engraving of a quetzal’s feather, and it is set with a triangular-cut green jade. The forepart of the writing instrument and the cone are crafted from sterling silver, contrasting with the 18-karat champagne-tone gold fittings and the handcrafted solid gold nib. The Montblanc emblem, made of mother-of-pearl, is embedded in the engraving of an Aztec sun disk.
On. The right: Montblanc 888 Edition estimate C$3-4,000.00 plus tax.

This is an Egard Watch Company - Quantus V3 Mayan Limited Edition wristwatch which arrived with a Rose Gold wrist band. It arrived with a black/blue rubber strap as well as a brown leather strap with a rose gold clasp.
I suggest that you visit their website to see their currently available products; and to search YouTube for Egard Watch Co. and the newscast discussing corporate reactions to their well done pro police video. They expected to ship our watch order in September 2020, but with COVID-19 being so active in California, we will not be surprised by a delay in shipping. It’s difficult to wait patiently as our expectations are so high. FedEx delivered it on Oct. 1, 2020. As anticipated we had to pay 13% GST taxes through FedEx to CBSA by phone before the delivery could be made. I’m thrilled with this purchase. I hope that it lasts my lifetime; and because of my age it likely will. It turned out to be too heavy for MAC to wear comfortably.
This watch curves around the wearer’s wrist. It normally ships with both a black rubber strap and a black leather strap, but because of our rose gold watch order, MAC ordered it with a brown leather strap. The black rubber strap is the default strap.
Limited Edition to 3,000 (made in limited batches). Mine is 2197/3000. As of Oct. 4, 2020 this watch in this colour is not shown for sale on their website.

The Daniel Boone Homestead (DBH) is a historical site in Birdsboro, Pennsylvania that tells the story of Daniel Boone’s youth in Pennsylvania’s Oley Valley and illuminates the daily lives of the region’s 18th-century settlers through the eyes of the Boone, Maugridge and DeTurk families who occupied the site.

March is apparently question month. To ask me a question, post a comment here: toddpage.livejournal.com/370916.html or send me a flickr mail. [Or leave it here if anomynity is not of any importance - the lj post comments are screened so that only I can see them]
All questions: Here
Question 5:What was it like, first realizing that you might be gay? When did you first wonder, when did you accept it, when did you act on it? How did you feel about it all?
The first time I realized I was gay I was 12 years old, taking a shower. I was not thinking about anything in particular, and out of nowhere, as I leaned to turn the water off, I realized: "Shit. I'm gay." I had never really lined things up. I knew I tended to try to help certain people at the store more than others. I'd never considered the fact that the ones I made efforts to help were men, had chest and facial hair, and were usually of a slightly larger build. [Yeah, even then I pursued the "bear" type.] All of a sudden things clicked into place. I was terrified. I hated it. I decided right then and there, that I would not be. I would not be gay. I would control it. Stop it. I could make this not be true, and like girls. I would find a woman, make her my wife, have kids and a dog, and live the straight life. There was nothing to say I couldn't fix this. And like that, I turned a switch in my mind off, and began some pretty hardcore denial. I still tended to help certain customers, and, suffice to say, I was not immune to knowledge of the internet. But somehow I managed to convince myself that despite the fact that I still gazed at men, I was straight. I wasn't aware of it even. I did denial extremely well, and forgot my discovery [until I was ready to deal with it.] It wasn't terribly difficult, honestly. Few people in my school interested me... in that way... and it would've been extremely complicated to be out at my all-boys catholic high school as it is. Either way, I ignored it. I went on one, awkward, date with my best female friend from high school. [Our theatre program did shows with the sister school's girls.]
My freshman year of college, I sunk further in, which led to my second realization. I dated a girl from my school who is a wonderful person, and very pretty, for about 2 weeks. Maybe 3. We'd hold hands, and cuddle when the group of us watched movies, and we went to dinner and a movie once. Every night, I'd walk her home to her dorm, and give her a hug, then walk to my dorm. Something missing from this situation? Ah, yes, at this point, we perhaps should have kissed. Something about it, the idea in itself, held me back. And the last evening... 2.5 weeks in, when it could be put off no longer, as she was my girlfriend at this point... I realized that I needed to kiss her good night. And as I leaned in to do so, it hit me again, in this order. "Oh, man... I really don't want to do this. FUCK. I'm gay." As I'm leaning in, I maneuver into what is clearly the worlds most awkward hug, and uncomfortably tell her "Good night"
Some history of me at this point. I am a pius, naive, freshman at a very conservative catholic college - my college was in fact #2 in the nation for most homophobic on the Princeton Review I have never touched alcohol, and at this point still believe I will not do so until I am 21. I go to church every sunday, and I go to "Prayer and Praise" every wednesday evening. As a general rule, I stop by the Harkins Hall chapel once every day or so because it is small, quiet, and I can pray there. I do all my homework in the chapel basement. I have hidden myself in this. I believe what I am told, but there is no strong faith behind it. It is a place I can fit in, where I know the rules and what is expected of me. At the same time I fight anyone who says that being gay is evil. [I HATE the word homosexual and homosexuality. It's so clerical.]
It is 2 am on a friday night, in late november, and I am now re-realizing I am gay. I am realizing that this may not be something for me to control. I am still very much hateful of the fact. This turns inward. I hate myself, and loath every part of me that makes me feel this way. I am already an outcast from most social situations, and awkward, the last thing I needed was this extra load. People would hate me. All of them. I'm sure of it. All my friends will leave me and hate me. I'll have to start enjoying shopping, and I'll probably have to listen to Madonna instead of punk rock. But no. Maybe this is still fixable. I had convinced myself that with great prayer, God could take this away. I started being more vigilant, praying daily, fixating myself on anything I could that would help me push away from this. I told the girl that something was up, and I needed to figure it out. She respected that, and I think knew EXACTLY what was up. I would cry in church, praying so hard that I shook, hoping and calling to God to let me find women attractive. Or at least to stop finding men attractive. Anything. Anything to avoid dealing with or accepting it, me. Somehow, this didn't work. Surprising, I know.
So, I had to deal with it. I had to start accepting me. That this was an uncontrollable aspect of who and what I was. It was a piece of me. It was something that had been created in me, like the color of my eyes, or the color of my hair. I turned to the internet. Looking at forums, and still looking for loopholes. I joined a forum for the young and gay and talked it through with people there. I talked with some people who had experience, [Bruin, creator of Bear With Me gave me an excellent X-Men analogy, that I remember specifically.] All of this occurred over the length of the second semester.
No one else knew at this point. I had come to a sort of shaky acceptance with it... but it was very weak. I wasn't confident in it, and I still hated it. I still didn't want it to be true, but I was at least aware that it was something outside of my control. Which, to be fair, is a big step in it's own. I was carrying it by myself though. Till a cast party. It was the second cast party for Brigadoon. There was a particularly homophobic person in the cast, who had written a letter in The Cowl the week before comparing homosexuality to cancer. As a joke, we had discussed one of the guys drunkenly kissing him. [We we're freshman, give us a break] This was the second time I had ever had alcohol, and I still hadn't learned how to drink, or how to control when I drink. My friend, Joe, suggests I do it, and I blurt out "No. Not until I come out."
And then I realize what I'd done, and leave. Joe follows me, and confronts me... I tell him it was a joke, and he rolls his eyes. It's the next day and we're having dinner when he asks me about it. And I slowly tell him that I thought it was true. I didn't know where on the kinsey scale I was [I'd recently discovered the scale, and I thought it was fancy] but I had a hunch it was true. At some point in the next month, the girl I'd dated asked me what had happened and I'd told her too. That was two people. And I had told them I was still not sure. Come graduation week. I was really the only person in my group of friends on campus for the week, and I read books the entire time. I read Augusten Burrough's 'Running with Scissors', then Dry, then David Sedaris' "Me Talk Pretty One Day" Believe it or not, these were the first books I'd read about or by gay people - at least to my knowledge. I was still looking for loopholes but I was recognizing that other people were like this, and they managed to survive life. I started gaining a little bit of confidence. I went home for the summer and, very shyly, got the 2 books on gay subjects out of my library, and read through them, looking for understanding. Looking for some kind of knowledge about who and what I was. I tend to read about things before I go into them. Alot.
Somehow, I decided I was ready to come out to my parents. I don't know if I decided I was ready, or if I decided it was the right thing to do. This was a horrible decision at this time, because my confidence levels were still extremely low. I nervously and carefully sat them down at the dinner table, feeling my heart in my chest. Terrified. The second or third most awful feeling I've ever felt. And I told them "I think I'm gay." I had prepared for various responses, based on my books, but life, surprisingly [sarcasm], doesn't run like books. They did not express hate, or anger, and told me that they would never love me any less... but that they did not think I was gay. That perhaps it was a phase. That everyone questioned it at some point or another, and that I needed more time to know for sure. Essentially, that the conclusion I had clawed my way too, was wrong. I didn't know how to respond, and instead of standing my ground, conceded that it was possible. We made dinner and watched Shrek. [My parents, by the way, are amazingly supportive people, who I have put through a lot, and who love and accept me for who I am, through everything I've done. They take the details of my life quite well. I don't want anyone thinking less of the two wonderful people who brought my life. This is something that for them, as for me, would take some adjusting to. And they have adjusted to it, now, and support me fully]
Nothing further was said. The response I'd received had shaken the confidence. I still knew I was attracted to guys, but what happened from there? I told another friend, a close female friend from PC, and her response was amazing. She told me she was proud of me for coming to terms with it, and that she was so happy for me. She was so... supportive. The people I'd told so far had expressed acceptance... but this was the first time support in it had come. It was surprising, and my confidence in myself and my ability to cope with it grew. I went back to school and started talking a little less furtively. And on October 10th, I got an IM from Joe: "So... tomorrows national coming out day... you gonna tell everyone?" I had never even thought about telling the rest of my friends. "I guess so. Might as well now, gonna have to do it eventually, right?" "Yup." I then sent the girlfriend an IM telling her my plan.
So, yeah. I came out on National Coming Out Day. Not because of the holiday, but because the holiday had kind've reminded me that it was something I should do. All my friends were in the cafe, eating lunch, and before some left for class, I said "I have to say something." *silence* "I'm queer."
Oh, how I regret saying "I'm queer". I had chosen it carefully, it was an umbrella term, and it allowed me retreat, should things turn a direction that I didn't favor. 3 or 4 raised their eyebrows in shock, 2 laughed. [Kaitlin told me later her exact reaction was "Well, yeah."] Only 1 person in my group of friends reacted poorly... and she kind've cast herself away. I still don't talk to her. It was kind've amazing. I could start talking about all the shit I had bottled up openly, and I didn't have to fit any mold. I was, amusingly, now requested by friends to do things like go to the mall, or go dancing. I think this was hilarious. I had not been hiding any desires or actions... so upon coming out I still hated shopping, and still, for the most part, was not interested in an evening of dancing. Still my confidence grew, and I got to be really okay with it. I started having recognizable crushes, and though I was still uncomfortable with some aspects, I made progress.
That covers all of the acceptance bit. It's still a process for me in some ways. I notice I have this instinct within me to push against anything stereotypical. I refused to listen to Madonna, or Cher... would not even give them a try, and I still respond to some "gay" things with a negative attitude. I'm working on this. I recently listened to Madonna, to give it a chance. I still don't really like it, but at least now I've given it a chance. I mean, the girl has some definite pipes... and Like a Prayer is hella fun, but it's just not something I'd listen to for the hell of it. I'm teaching myself to recognize that doing things that are stereotypical aren't bad, as long as you aren't doing them to fit the stereotype. And not doing them to avoid the stereotype is just another way of letting the stereotype control you.
When I first acted on it is a tricky business. There had been some minor flirting, back and forth, with a freshman named ... gah, we'll say Alex. Alex was bearish, and cute, but personality-wise, not at all a match for me. As has been discussed, this is important. I was not really interested, and had tried to express that in nice ways... or avoid it anyway. We did crew together for a show called My Sister In This House, and at the second cast party, I had a lot of beer. Like, A-LOT. This was probably my 7th time ever drinking [ a year later ] and I was pretty hammered. Okay, very hammered. I was blurrily aware of the goings-ons, it was very late, and few people we're left at the gathering. I was warm, and I came to realize it was because Alex was standing behind me, with his arms around me. It felt nice, and I was hammered, so I let it occur. Then he started to pull me into the room where no one else was. A little something triggered in my brain, and I resisted. But another tug and I followed. We were standing in the room when this exchange happened:
Alex: "You're beautiful."
Me: *pause* "You smell like soap."
Alex: "Is that a good thing?"
Me: *long pause* "Yes."
At this point, he licked the back of my neck, which felt nice, but weird, but didn't have much [drunk] time to recognize it, as he leaned in and put his tongue straight in my mouth.
This woke me up pretty quickly. I'm pretty glad, too, had it been a subtle kiss first, I might have a story I'd regret. Who knows though. I told him "No." and he asked me if that meant just now, or ever. I said I didn't know.
He didn't talk to me for a year. I'm not entirely sure I blame him. I'm not sure if that counts as acting on it, as I was barely aware, and didn't really act except for to realize I was not comfortable with it. But it was my first kiss, regardless. My first real acting on it was a year later. February of my junior year of college, and began with a meeting for coffee, then a kiss in a Chili's parking lot. It moved forward from there into my first relationship.
To sum up: Ages 12 and 18, never really wondered, it just HIT me, 19 and 20, and I hated it. Alot. I don't anymore though. I'm really actually comfortable with it now. I like that it's a part of me, and I no longer feel any desire to change it. I don't believe in gay pride, because I think it's something embedded within me, just like I wouldn't be proud of having blue eyes, I wouldn't be proud of being gay... but I do embrace it as a part of me, and support it. I am comfortable with who I am, finally, at 22, and it feels glorious. I've gotten beyond accepting it, and I support it in myself. Whenever you read about people's coming outs, they always refer to coming out to themself first. I think we can add a step and that is supporting themself in that. I am finally there. Not without my share of work left to accomplish further, but I have made great progress, and I feel certain I will make more in times to come.

Referencia a las patéticas manipulaciones informativas del periódico El Día y la Televisión Autonómica. Entre los retratos que rodean a Mr. Bruns se pueden ver los de empresarios actualmente investigados por el caso Las Teresitas y sin embargo participantes en la construcción del puerto y en el negocio del gas licuado y varios políticos del Partido Popular y Coalición Canaria igualmente imputados por varios delitos por las fiscalías anticorrupción (Caso Las Teresitas, Caso Salmón), pero que siguen en sus cargos públicos.
A modo de ejemplos
1: La "Canaria" vio 2.000 asistentes
"LA OPINIÓN Vergüenza e indignación. Esa fue la respuesta de los manifestantes cuando ayer, superadas las tres de la tarde, se corrió la voz de que la primera edición del informativo del ente público Televisión Canaria había relegado la marcha a un segundo plano y dado una cifra "increíble" de 2.000 asistentes. A nadie le extrañó, de todas maneras, la actitud de la Canaria, aún cuando se suponga que debe ofrecer un servicio público, si bien la estimación despertó durísimas críticas ante la tergiversación sistemática de todo lo que ha tenido que ver con el proyecto del muelle desde diferentes medios. El telediario del mediodía abrió con la calima (que lleva ya cuatro días sobre Canarias), dejó como segunda noticia un incendio en Geneto ocurrido la tarde del viernes y relegó a la tercera posición la marcha, con una estimación de afluencia de 2.000 personas cuando a esa hora ya se sabía que la cantidad era muy superior. Por contra, TVE, Antena 3, la agencia Efe y la cadena SER a nivel nacional hablaron de más de 20.000"
2: Editorial de El Día comentando esta manfestación:
Canaria y la dominación colonial son nuestros peores males
"LA PASADA semana concluyó plena de acontecimientos. El último, la manifestación de tinerfeños -¿realmente eran todos tinerfeños?; tenemos constancia de que miles de personas se trasladaron ex profeso desde Canaria para armar jaleo aquí- contra Tenerife y sus intereses más vitales. Estamos convencidos de que la mano negra -o amarilla; lo mismo da- canariona anda detrás de todas las maniobras contra el puerto de Granadilla. Ahí tenemos, sin ir más lejos, la hijuela que ha introducido en nuestra Isla un diario de Las Palmas. Esa hijuela, que siempre actúa como un caballo de Troya, se regocija con todo lo que le afecta negativamente a Tenerife. No hay más que ver con qué alborozo ha titulado sus primeras páginas en los últimos días, tras conocerse la paralización cautelar por el Tribunal Superior de Justicia de Canarias de las obras de dicho puerto. Ese deleznable pasquín hasta se regodea cuando pierde el Club Deportivo Tenerife. Por eso aconsejamos a todos los habitantes de esta Isla que no compren tan abominable diario. Diario, lo hemos dicho en múltiples ocasiones pero conviene recordarlo, dirigido en estos momentos por un godo insufrible que tuvimos en esta Casa hasta que nos engañó, pues forma parte de su naturaleza morder la mano que le da de comer; igual que los perros de la ira. Antes dirigía ese planfleto pro canarión otro godo famoso por su pestilencia física, si bien la hediondez de su pluma supera con creces a la mugre corporal que siempre lo acompaña, producto de su aversión al jabón. Algún día escribiremos un comentario, e incluso un editorial, monográfico dedicado a estos dos godos y otros dos más; es decir, al cuarteto más aborrecible de la prensa canaria, que para nuestra desgracia no deciden mandarse a mudar de una vez y dejarnos a todos tranquilos.
La semana acabó, como señalamos, con una manifestación que nos causa náuseas. Lo decíamos en nuestro comentario de ayer y lo repetimos en el editorial de hoy. Sólo con ver las imágenes de esas personas que no quieren a su Isla -pese a que están en su perfecto derecho para manifestarse donde y cuando quieran-, nos dan arcadas. ¿Cómo es posible esta ruindad contra Tenerife? Recordamos a nuestros lectores que el proyecto del puerto industrial de Granadilla, con su correspondiente polígono, comenzó hace 30 años. Desde entonces se han realizado multitud de estudios, que han llevado a correcciones y modificaciones de la idea inicial. Lo que se pretende construir en la actualidad tiene una incidencia mínima, si es que la tiene, sobre los sebadales. La superficie de esta pradera submarina que se vería afectada, en caso de que, como subrayamos, hubiese daño alguno, apenas superaría el uno por ciento de las que hay en Canarias. Además, existe la posibilidad de que sean trasplantadas, a pesar de que lo nieguen los falsos ecologistas.
Somos conscientes de que una mala información -una desinformación desinteresada- sobre este aspecto del proyecto ha podido ser la causa de la suspensión cautelar decretada por el TSJC. Un organismo con sede en Las Palmas y jueces vinculados a Las Palmas, cuando menos por motivos de residencia. Esperemos que exista alguno de Tenerife entre esos magistrados, pues la orden de paralización procedía de Canaria.
Tenemos la esperanza de que esta obra esté detenida poco tiempo, considerando lo importante que es para nuestra Isla. Sean quienes sean los que protesten, a poco que los jueces se pronuncien con cautela este puerto seguirá adelante. Estamos convencidos de que el puerto de Granadilla será una realidad porque lo quiere el pueblo de una isla que en estos momentos está pasando hambre. El puerto generará muchos puestos de trabajo durante su construcción, y muchos más cuando ya esté en funcionamiento. No obstante, constatamos la presencia de dos focos contrarios a esta imprescindible infraestructura, formados por individuos contrarios, lo repetimos, al progreso de Tenerife. Uno de esos focos está encerrado en el Sanedrín de Vegueta; un antro donde moran individuos ruines y perversos hasta la médula, que tanto daño le están haciendo al Archipiélago. Esos siniestros personajes se han inventado el "gran" que anteponen al nombre de Canaria, con el único fin de hacer más daño todavía con la confusión y el engaño perpetuo. El otro foco nefasto para la principal isla del Archipiélago se oculta -quién lo iba a decir- en la ULL. Se trata de algunos profesores manipulados por falsos ecologistas, que a su vez están comandados desde Las Palmas, así como por personajes enemigos de Tenerife por sí mismos; es decir, individuos que odian a nuestra Isla sin necesidad de ser inducidos a ello, pues lo llevan en la sangre como llevan los canes de la ira el virus de la rabia. Entre esos hay catedráticos analfabetos, alguno de ellos muy conocido entre nosotros pues lo sufrimos en esta Casa. Ahí están sus nombres publicados para que la gente los conozca. Nos causa gracia leer en esa lista la filiación de un señor que con sus disparates estuvo a punto de desbaratar este periódico. Preso de una demencia calenturienta, nos llevó al borde del desprestigio y tuvo que ser llamado a capítulo por sus dislates. Aquí lo conocíamos como el loquinario. Es tan ignorante, que no sabe ni donde está Granadilla. Es un inculto integral.
Como decimos, Tenerife pasa por momentos dramáticos, hasta el punto de que sus habitantes menos favorecidos -aquellos a los que la crisis está golpeando con más dureza- pasan hambre en estos momentos. La culpa la tiene el Gobierno socialista español, que nos ha arrastrado a la miseria. Antes, hasta los taxistas de Santa Cruz poseían buenos coches y eran casi millonarios. Canaria y la dominación colonial son dos males que urge erradicar. Una tarea difícil de abordar con los políticos que hoy por hoy nos rigen. Los políticos de los partidos estatales detestan a Tenerife -la isla más grande y favorecida por la naturaleza-, y sólo benefician a Las Palmas. Mientras tanto, los de CC consienten con cobardía. A todos ellos los aborrecemos por habernos salido traidores y babiecas.
Como somos conscientes de que esto no tiene solución, insistimos en la urgencia de que llegue la verdadera democracia, la verdadera libertad y la verdadera decencia; elementos todos ellos que resultan imposibles de conseguir sin soberanía.
Decíamos ayer, y no es una broma, que el Parlamento de Canarias debería cerrar al menos durante un año porque no sirve para nada. Sus diputados sólo valen para subirse los sueldos mientras el pueblo agoniza de inanición, y para reprobar a un periódico que les canta las cuarenta y les dice en la cara que su comportamiento es ignominioso. También están siempre listas sus "señorías" -¡cuánto nos repugna oír esa palabra!- para despojar de sus viviendas a familias honradas. El Parlamento, insistimos, debe cerrar sus puertas y no volverlas a abrir hasta que se convierta en el Parlamento constituyente de la nueva e imprescindible nación canaria. Insistir en la absurda y criminal españolidad de estas Islas resulta pernicioso para todos nosotros. Los peninsulares se llevan nuestras riquezas y a cambio nos dan hambre. Siguen rebajándonos al concepto en que ya nos colocaron los primeros soberanos de esta tierra. Nos referimos a Isabel de Castilla y Fernando de Aragón; unos monarcas de muy dudosa moral. Reyes que inclusive expulsaron a los judíos y protegieron a la Santa Inquisición y que, en el caso de Canarias, sustituyeron a los menceyes guanches por esa podredumbre llegada de España para avasallarnos y esquilmarnos con avaricia. Tinerfeños, canarios: el asunto es muy serio. Hay que acabar con nuestra situación colonial y con los que se encierran en el templo sagrado del Parlamento, para robarle al pueblo y condenarlo al hambre y al desprestigio de proclamar que la isla tercera es grande, mientras Tenerife ha de estar condenada al último lugar. Estos son los individuos que residen en el Parlamento de la calle Teobaldo Power. Don Paulino, no se quede quieto; haga algo."
