"The pursuit of happiness is the engine that moves humankind, that motivates us to study, to work, to marry and have children, to make friends, to pursue all sorts of worldly pleasures, to dream of the future, and sometimes to fight for social and financial status. Of all the goals we may pursue in life, happiness is the only one to have worth in itself; all the others—health, power, money, beauty, success—make sense only as means of achieving it. To many people, life would be unbearable without the belief that they can be happy."

Since the creation of humankind, war has been an inevitable part of our history. Through times, weapons and equipments become more and more sophisticated, but something has never changed: the raging bloodlust of men, seeking for the sweet taste of victory and revenge. Nothing can represent such idea as well as a mecha named Arthur. It has appeared in almost every battles that had occured since 1893 - the rising year of mecha technologies. While Arthur mostly just killed everyone insight, it peculiarly withholds its fury during wars with Britain's involvement. Subsequently, it usually takes side with the UK, eagerly and willingly battle for the nation. As such, many considered it, or rather who piloted it, to be an English. The robot earned its name due to its weapon: the long broadsword, and its bias for Britain coincide with the legendary hero King Arthur.
Note:
Finally getting back to mechas! My 6-month absence can be justified with the enrollment announcement from my top dream school: CNN. I spent 6 months to study hard for probably the most important exam in our country and finally got in my favorite school. So personally, this mech is built as a celebration to this event!

Armourquest: Genesis Volume 1
By Mark Allen
In an age of knights and dragons, when humankind is commonly terrorized by reptilian nightmares on leathery wings, a boy receives a sword; a sword which will lead him on his path to becoming a man and a knight, himself. In short, for those who enjoy great fantasy, Armorquest is for you.
Writer Ben Avery infuses his characters with rich three-dimensional qualities. None more so than Timothy, the main character of the book, a young man bitter over his father's death and eager to avenge it on the dragons. Equally interesting, though very limited in appearance, is the "shepherd" who gives Timothy his first glimpse into the amazing nature of the sword. Oops! There I go, giving more away. Let it suffice to say that if you want to bring readers back again and again, give them interesting characters with believable motivations and a little mystery. Avery does so quite well.
Then, of course, there's the art of Sherwin Schwartzrock. Drama. Emotion. Evocative imagery. All of that and more awaits those who have yet to feast their eyes on his work. His wonderful grasp of character expression lends a great deal of realism to the tale. Again, it's always good to help readers feel what the character feels. That, coupled with his ample (and appropriate, considering the subject matter) use of blacks, adding depth and a slight sense of the macabre to the artwork, helps make this one of the finest graphic novels I've seen this year. In fact, the cover itself is a gripping testament to Schwartzrock's talent, and is the main reason I stopped and picked it up, rather than moving on to one of the many more mundane choices on the racks.
Yep, Armorquest is where it's at, folks. And, in case you haven't already guessed, it's highly recommended. And, get this: it's recommended for all ages! Find it at comics shops and at online auctions.

but know this my dear child, they
chose this role long before they

This beautifully bright butterfly has captivated humankind’s attention since it was first depicted in an Egyptian tomb 3,500 years ago, making it the first ever butterfly to be recorded in history. Its striking tawny-orange colouration serves as a warning to predators that this species is distasteful, which ultimately deters predators from attacking (3). Framing the startlingly orange hues is a bold black border interlaced with white specks. At first sight the sexes appear very similar, although upon closer inspection one can see the males are slightly smaller than the females. The males can also be distinguished by the presence of a black scent-producing pouch located in the lower-centre of the hind wing; on the underside of the wing it appears as a white-centred black patch. In addition, the males have a pair of brush-like organs hidden within the abdomen, which are used in reproduction (2).
Similar to the adult butterfly, the plain tiger caterpillar has extremely vivid colouration which also acts as a warning signal protecting it from bird attacks. As the caterpillar grows it attains ten horizontal black bands interspersed with paired yellow spots, as well as acquiring three pairs of long, black, tentacle-like appendages, which sometimes become a deep crimson at the base (4). The fully grown caterpillar then forms a pupa which can range from a green-brown colour in a normal environment to a pink colour if the surroundings are dry or unnatural. A horizontal band of miniscule black and golden specks decorate the abdominal segment of the pupa (5).

Plain tiger biology
The plain tiger is able to breed throughout the year, but with greater frequency during or just after the monsoon season (4) (5). The female plain tiger is incredibly careful when laying eggs, and will feel out the leaf with her abdomen to test its suitability (2) (4). The female can lay up to 12 eggs on the same plant, although the eggs are laid singly to avoid overcrowding, usually on the undersides of leaves of the preferred milkweed species, Calotropis gigantea (2) (4) (5). After about five days the caterpillars hatch and devour the egg shell before proceeding to eat the leaves they were hatched on. The caterpillars are able to feed openly throughout the day due to their bright colouration which protects them from any nearby bird or reptile predators (4).
Due to feeding on an array of milkweed species, the plain tiger caterpillar accumulates unpalatable alkaloids which induce vomiting in its predators. These toxins are passed on to the adult through the pupal stage, where metamorphosis lasts six to seven days (4). Even when attacked, the plain tiger is blessed with having an extremely tough leathery skin which makes it harder to kill, and, if caught, it will play dead and release a nauseating smell. Whilst an inexperienced predator is still likely to attack, it will learn to avoid the plain tiger once experiencing how foul tasting it is. Another interesting habit of the plain tiger is its slow meandering flight, which gives a potential predator time to recognise the species before it makes the mistake of attacking (2) (5). Remarkably, other butterflies have learnt to mimic the plain tiger’s protection mechanisms in order to escape predation; one particularly good mimic is the female danaid eggfly (Hypolimnas misippus) (2) (6).

Plain tiger range
This butterfly has an extensive range and can be found throughout the Old World tropics, from Africa to Southeast Asia and even Australasia (1). Recently it has been discovered that there are three subspecies; Danaus chrysippus chrysippus is found in Asia and tropical Africa, Danaus chrysippus alcippus ranges from the Cape Verde Islands, across Africa to Oman, and Danaus chrysippus orientis is predominantly found in tropical Africa and the surrounding islands including Madagascar and the Seychelles (3).
Plain tiger habitat
The plain tiger inhabits open, fairly arid areas rather than the moisture drenched habitats typical of the jungles found in the Old World. Unlike other members of the Danaus genus, the plain tiger often flies in open sunlight, even at the hottest point of the day (2). Throughout its life as a caterpillar, it can be found wherever species of the milkweed family (Asclepiadoideae) grow, particularly on its favoured species, the crown flower (Calotropis gigantea) (4).

The night sky is an astounding phenomenon that fascinates almost every individual. Stars have been around for thousands of years and yet, humankind is still mesmerized by their beauty. Despite the distance, we have such a strong connection and love for these great unknown entities. Capturing the magnificence of the night sky is highly rewarding and can be an exciting process as well.
Hess' 12x16-foot mural depicting humankind's use of power through the ages—"The Story of Power"—was created for Iowa Power and Light Company's downtown Des Moines office. The artwork was gingerly packed and moved in 1971 to the Des Moines Center of Science and Industry—now home to Bergman Academy.
"The fact that a cloud from a minor volcanic eruption in Iceland—a small disturbance in the complex mechanism of life on the Earth—can bring to a standstill the aerial traffic over an entire continent is a reminder of how, with all its power to transform nature, humankind remains just another species on the planet Earth."

Presently, the degenerative diseases of aging are one of humankind’s greatest challenges: cancer, heart attack, stroke, diabetes and Alzheimer’s disease prematurely kill and disable millions of people worldwide. Yet nearly all aging-related diseases occur needlessly, because more than 75% of them can be prevented. Consistent unhealthy choices throughout life could be causing your body to function and age biologically at the level of someone who is 15-20 years older! The gradual wasting away of the body over the course of decades is not a necessary or normal component of aging. How can you function and age biologically at a level equivalent to someone who is many years younger than you are? The Answer is Healthy Aging Medical Centers. We have two convenient locations. Our main building is located in West Orange, NJ and provides a soothing, comfortable environment for patients.
Recent aging research, and continuous advancements and understanding in how our bodies work on a cellular level, has brought doctors and scientists new insights on how we can slow, stop, and even reverse many of the symptoms of aging. Some of these symptoms, such as the loss of physical vitality and a healthy appearance, can have a significant affect on the quality of our lives. Healthy Aging Medical Centers are dedicated and committed to providing our patients with the latest treatment, support, education and encouragement on life-changing options that are available to them by recommending preventative age management.
Your consultation begins the very moment you start your registration process as well as complete all the forms under “GETTING STARTED” on our website: healthyagingmedicalcenters.com. A detailed review of your history is performed and a lab requisition is generated by the doctor. We do prefer in you arrange for the blood to be drawn in one of our offices as we perform an extensive panel not offered by other labs (i.e labcorp or quest). The blood test includes genetic markers, inflammatory markers as well as oxidative markers. Other testing includes cholesterol testing with a breakdown of particle sizes and cholesterol absorption markers. In addition, healthy aging formulated a specific hormone panel specifically designed for our patients. The lab will bill your insurance company for the testing. If you choose not to come to our office for the blood test the lab requisition will be emailed to you with detailed instructions for you to take to your participating lab. Payment information for Healthy Aging Medical Centers Initial Consult is in the form of a credit card and is due at the time of registration as the doctor begins reviewing your health history and generates your customized and individualized lab requisition. Your credit card is debited 2 weeks from the date you register as this generally is the time it takes for your labs to return from the lab (lab-corp or quest)., and your face to face visit with the doctor. The cost of your initial visit is $450. Scheduling for your Initial Visit is via our e-patient portal system and is completed by the patient under “make a appointment”. If you do not have insurance to pay for your blood work, we offer a significant reduced price for blood work that is performed in our office.

Painting
These paintings engage with the history of the relationship between humankind and nature, and in doing so they strive to contextualise how that relationship exists today. Through animals, they explore the messy borderlands where the concepts of nature and culture overlap, recognising the animals as products of their place in human histories as much as of their biology. To do so they borrow the conventions of natural history illustration and museum dioramas, which both engage with concerns relevant to painting as well; conflicts inherent in 2D representations of 3D spaces, as well as between reality and the artifice of its artistic representation.
The relationship between the painted animals and human viewer is made immediate by the scale of each work, as the creatures are depicted at life size. This encourages the viewer to imagine each animal in reference to their own body, instead of the relationship being purely a cerebral one.

INOCULATION ETERNITY is a story about a place called Eternity. It is my imagination about what life might have been like before humankind ever existed. We all have this hope that when we die we go to a perfect place called Heaven. In this book I paint a picture of a similar place where there is no time, sickness or war. Its essence beholds perfection and pure happiness. The entire story evolves around the life of Archangel Lucifer, who is the Master of Ceremony for the Gathering.
The Gathering could be likened to a church service, but far greater. Its purpose is to recharge everyone's spirit in what I reference in the book as life's resurgence. Everything was perfect until something happens at the latest Gathering service. This something has to do with Lucifer. It begins a wind of change that rocks the core of Eternity and everyone's existence. You will witness how Lucifer's unleashed emotions assimilate negative potential. As the story progresses, readers will witness how many of Eternity's inhabitants who are witnessing the changes, become determined to understand what is happening. Amongst them evolves a certain sect of creatures who begin to enjoy their newfound knowledge. Different sensations are experienced as new emotions surface, which were hidden from them since the beginning of their existence.
Gabriel, who is another principal character is one determined to understand what is happening. Prior to these dysphonic eruptions everything was all good. Now another realm appears on the horizon. His concern for Lucifer and scientific interests beckon him to go in search of a remedy.
Ancient of Days' is my version of God. He is the center of all moral consciousness and the animator for life. He doesn't even attempt to explain what is happening or what has caused the eruption in the first place. Some begin to wonder why. His expression of love for His creation is to stand back and allow them the freedom to choose their own destiny. It is His desire that they trust Him. He encourages them to govern themselves. He lends them support and intervenes only when it is absolutely necessary. With an infinite space ahead of them, He is in no hurry to stop what appears to be a disaster.
Bible talks about God's creation of humankind in Genesis 1:26. In parallel, Enuma Elish says that the “gods bound Kingu, severed his blood vessels and from his blood they created mankind.” The Vayu Purana says the Brahma created four sets of 1000 couples each from his mouth, chest, thighs and feet.
