July 20, 1969. It was 40 years ago today that humankind set foot on another world!
This is a picture taken of the "Special Edition Life Magazine: To The Moon and Back" that I have been keeping safe. I came across the magazine after my Mom's folks passed away.
This is both kind of cheesy and makes me smile in a proud way. Buzz Aldrin, Neil Armstrong, and Michael Collins all pose for a NASA publicity shot. Man, those guys had nerves and guts and daring that I just don't. To be the furthest away from all of humanity that anyone has ever been. It boggles the mind!
I would also like to point out that Buzz Aldrin is an Eagle Scout, and so is Jim Lovell (Apollo 13). I am an Eagle Scout. It isn't much in common, but it makes me happy to think about anyway.

Planet Earth – 16 November 2138
After the discovery of life after death, humankind has stopped to see death as their enemy. Most of them already experienced it and reached the other side. Only a small number of people and all other living creatures stayed. Even though they do not feel any emotions for death, they somehow feel uncomfortable about killing animals for food. The Solution was simple; “We shall escape the absurdity of growing a whole chicken in order to eat the breast or wing, by growing the parts separately under a suitable medium.” So, they invented a machine to grow meat at homes and called it ‘Living System Device’, shortly LSD. Some romantic poets called it ‘Lovely Side of Darkness’, shortly LSD.
They do not need to be concerned about zoonotic diseases like viruses or no need to produce large amounts of antibiotics and feeding stuff anymore. With this reforming technology, humans even developed new species to help nature to recover itself.
Of course humankind wants to have fun after they satisfy their hunger. A group of science lovers created new species with musical abilities to have fun and learn more from them. ‘Snake Jazz’ is one of the most famous of all. Their concert tickets are already sold out for the next 5 years. Hopefully, our friend Adam experienced their last concert of the year and recorded this for us. Enjoy.

This statue is found in Atteridgeville (West of Pretoria, Gauteng Province, South Africa) on the corner of Hlahla and Ramakgopa Streets. It was created by one of South Africa's new generation sculptors, Angus Taylor, born in Johannesburg, 1970. The sculpture was commissioned by the City of Tshwane Metropolitan Municipality (CTMM) as part of the 2010 FIFA festivities and is named 'Mother of Humankind' a theme in Taylor's philosophy of mankind.
His desire for permanence is antithetic to museum's 'do not touch' he
therefore uses materials such as stone, timber and steel. This sculpture,
made out of Marico slate stone, invites you to touch her, to be part of
mother.
English Bulldogs are one of humankind’s great frivolities.
Modern English Bulldogs, thankfully, have been bred away from their original purpose, which would likely be considered cruel today. And, so, they have gravitated to sofas and love seats around the world. English Bulldogs are slobberingly good-natured and very, very funny. I think the AKC should introduce a new Group especially for this comical breed: The Naturally-Occurring Antidepressant Group! In the N.O.A. Group, Judges could toss away their books on breed standards and employ laugh-meters instead!
"i bleed each month to help make humankind a possibility. my womb is home to the divine. a source of life for our species. whether i choose to create or not. but very few times it is seen that way. in older civilizations this blood was considered holy. in some it still is. but a majority of people. societies. and communities shun this natural process. some are more comfortable with the pornification of women. the sexualization of women. the violence and degradation of women than this. they cannot be bothered to express their disgust about all that. but will be angered and bothered by this. we menstruate and they see it as dirty. attention seeking. sick. a burden. as if this process is less natural than breathing. as if it is not a bridge between this universe and the last. as if this process is not love. labour. life. selfless and strikingly beautiful." - Rupi Kaur.
2011 National Architecture Conference - natural artifice
14 - 16 April 2011, Melbourne. Australia.
While humankind is as reliant as ever on nature, our experience of what is “natural” is mediated by technology. From birth, this artifice is intrinsic in all encounters with nature. There are amazing results now evident in a world where designers are apprehending the powerful relationship between that which is natural and that which is artificial in a contemporary and meaningful way for our time.
The 2011 conference brings together speakers from five continents and three generations, each of whom has a potent vision for how we might locate nature in an artificial world. For more information on the confirmed speakers and registration please visit www.architecture.com.au/naturalartifice.
Speakers:

Adamah (Biblical Hebrew : אדמה) is a word, translatable as ground or earth, which occurs in the Biblical account of Creation of the Book of Genesis. The etymological link between the word adamah and the word adam is used to reinforce the teleological link between humankind and the ground, emphasising both the way in which man was created to cultivate the world, and how he originated from the "dust of the ground". Because man is both made from the adamah and inhabits it, his duty to realise his own potential is linked to a corresponding duty to the earth. In Eden, the adamah has primarily positive connotations, although Adam's close relationship with the adamah has been interpreted as likening him to the serpent, which crawls upon the ground, thus emphasising his animal nature.
After the fall of man, the adamah is duly corrupted with Adam's punishment of lifelong agricultural toil. This explains why God favours Abel's sacrifice of sheep to Cain's offering of the "land's produce" - Abel has progressed from the sin of his father, while Cain has not. The adamah is also complicit in Cain's later murder of Abel, swallowing Abel's innocent blood as if to try to conceal the crime.[1] God punishes Cain by making the ground barren to him, estranging him from the adamah.
In Hebrew, adamah is a feminine form, and the word has strong connections with woman in theology. One analogy is that the adamah is to man as a woman is to her husband: man has a duty to cultivate the earth in the same way that a husband has a duty to be fruitful with his wife. Irenaeus likened the Virgin Mary, who bore the Christ, to the adamah from which Adam came.
Adam (אדם) literally means "red", and there is an etymological connection between adam and adamah, adamah designating "red clay" or "red ground" in a non-theological context. In traditional Jewish theology, a strong etymological connection between the two words is often assumed. Maimonides believed the word adam to be derived from the word adamah, analogous to the way in which mankind was created from the ground. In contemporary biblical scholarship there is a general consensus that the words have an etymological relationship, but the exact nature of it is disputed. The word adam has no feminine form in Hebrew, but if it did, it would be adamah. However, it is considered unlikely that the word adamah is a feminization of "adam", and the prevailing hypothesis is that both words originate from the verbal stem "adam" (to be red) and were chosen by the author of Genesis to convey the relationship between man and the adamah.
There is additional relationship between the words adam and adamah and the word dam (דם), meaning blood. This justifies the presence in the Kashrut of the prohibition of the consumption of blood: the blood of a slaughtered animal must be returned to the ground, and covered with earth. The concept could also date back to primitive woman's "birth magic," or the making of clay manikins and anointing them with menstrual blood—the sacred "blood of life"—in order to conceive real children. Women were still making clay manikins to represent people by sympathetic magic through such manikins, in the Middle Ages when such pursuits were redefined as witchcraft. Clay was always a "feminine" material, sacred to women because it was their substance earth. Pottery was a woman's art because of this time-honored association of ideas.
In the Jahwist's account of creation, God's first act is to create mankind from the adamah. Before the creation of man, the earth is barren of life, because "there was not a man to till the ground". These verses signify the interdependence of man and adamah - the earth is a desolate wilderness without the attention of man, while mankind needs the produce of the soil to survive (Wikipedia).
