This diminutive but quite spectacular orchid endemic to South Africa. The plants in these images were nestled in a large population of the sundew Drosera trinervia.
Interestingly, the pollination strategy of the flower of this species is to mimic flowers of the genus Polygala. The orchid offers no nectar, but based on appearance lures carpenter bees which serve as the pollinator. The bees are deceived with no nectar reward and the pollen is deposited to be carried to the next flower.

The Botanical Garden of the University of Vienna (Hortus Botanicus Vindobonensis, HBV) is a botanical garden that was established in 1754 in the 3rd Viennese district Landstraße.
The Botanical Garden is a facility of the Faculty of Life Sciences at the University of Vienna. It is approximately 8 acres and is home to about 9,500 species. The tasks of the Botanical Garden include university research and teaching, the conservation of endangered plant species and seed and plant exchange with other institutions. A large part of the garden, adjacent to the Belvedere gardens is open to the public and serves as a recreational area.
History
The Botanical Garden was founded in 1754 as a "Hortus Medicus" (Medizinalpflanzengarten) on 1 ha. To this end, Maria Theresa - at the suggestion of her personal physician, Gerard van Swieten - had bought at Rennweg a 2-hectare estate. The order for the planning and design got Robert Laugier (1722-1793), who was since 1749 in Vienna. After having taken place the acquisition of the property, Laugier became first garden director (a position he held from 1754 until his retirement in 1768) as well as first chair holder of botany and chemistry, chairs that had been created afresh.
It subsequently evolved into a scientifically oriented botanical garden, the plants were arranged according to the Linnaean system (Linnaean taxonomy). Laugier's successor as director was Nicholas Joseph von Jacquin (Director 1768-1796). At that time the garden was home for about 8,000 species, the area was increased to approximately 7.8 acres. Jacquin's son Joseph Franz von Jacquin became his successor as director (1796-1839).
From 1841 on, the open land following the English garden style according to the system of Stephan Ladislaus Endlicher, who was director from 1839 to 1849, was redesigned. It had been layed out an officinal department with 196 beds. 1844 the Botanical Museum was built. Head gardener Joseph Diefenbach continued the redevelopment of the gardens in the sense of Endlicher. Director from 1849 to 1879 was Edward Schimmer. At this time the to European Botanic Gardens new concept of the phytogeographical groups was developed .
From 1883 to 1890, the Jacquingasse was created whereby the garden area was reduced to about 6 ha. 1890-1893 was built by director Anton Kerner von Marilaun (1878-1898) the greenhouse plant with tropical house. 1904/ 05 followed the new construction of the Botanical Institute and laying out of the biological groups.
1930, the Botanical Garden was to the so-called Host'schen garden at the southern end extended (formerly private garden of the Hapsburgs), as a result the garden reached its present size of approximately 8 ha. The adjacent Alpine Garden remained with the Belvedere gardens. Director from 1899-1931 was from Richard Wettstein. At the beginning of the 40s under director Fritz Knoll (1931-1945) the Alpine Garden was recreated in its current area.
Due to bomb damages during the Second World War (more than 40 hits), the demolition of the Botanical Museum and the felling of about 200 trees was necessary. Up to the 1970s under director Lothar Geitler (1945-1969) took place the removal of war damages and the reconstruction of the collections.
1970 the Host'sche garden was opened to visitors. 1975 began the general refurbishment of the institute building (until 1992) and the greenhouses, Director 1970-1995 was Frederick Ehrendorfer. In the 80s, the experimental house were built and created new experimental areas. In 1991, the Association of the Friends of the Botanical Garden was founded.
From 1995 on, the rehabilitation of the greenhouses was continued and the tropical house opend to the public. The Canaries group was built and expanded the group of the Austrian flora. Michael Hesse (1995-1997) was followed by Tod Stuessy (1995-2005) as director, since January 2006, Michael Kiehn is director of the botanical garden.

Es war wie ein fast stummer Schrei
„Für Vielfalt, gegen den Rechtsruck“ – Demonstration in Winsen
... von Heiko Wruck
BERICHT
Winsen/gc. Winsen (Luhe)/gc. Das Datum hat eine historische Dimension. Am 22. Februar 2025 versammelten sich in Winsen (Luhe), einen Tag vor der Bundestagswahl, Menschen, um gegen den Rechtsruck in Deutschland zu demonstrieren. Historisch ist, dass die anstehende Wahl die erste ist, die nach 1933 wieder eine rechtsradikale Regierung offeriert. Gleichzeitig ist der 22. Februar 1943 der Tag, an dem die Faschisten in Deutschland die studentische Widerstandskämpferin Sophie Scholl mit dem Fallbeil umgebrachten. Am 19. Februar 2020 hatte ein Faschist in Hanau neun Migranten erschossen. Ein Gedenken auf der Demo in Winsen an Sophie Scholl oder an die neun Opfer in Hanau: Fehlanzeige. An der Luhe ging es allein um das Jetzt und Hier sowie um die Wahl.
In der niedersächsischen Kleinstadt leben unter 37.000 Einwohner. Sie ist die drittgrößte Gemeinde und zugleich die zweitgrößte Stadt des Landkreises Harburg. Als vor etwa einem Jahr (Januar 2024) in ganz Deutschland Millionen Menschen auf die Straßen gingen, um gegen die Remigration zu protestieren, waren auch in Winsen an der Luhe noch gut 2.000 bis 3.000 Menschen dabei. Dem Aufruf zur Demonstration des Veranstalters W.L.A.N. – Winsen Luhe Against Nazis – am vergangenen Samstag zur Demonstration unter dem Motto „Für Vielfalt, gegen den Rechtsruck“ waren lediglich circa 600 Menschen gefolgt. Startpunkt war der Bahnhof Winsen. Der Demonstrationszug bewegte sich unter Polizeischutz durch die Innenstadt zum Endpunkt auf dem Schlossplatz. Ihre Forderungen:
●Keine Koalition mit der AfD!
●Für eine Gesellschaft ohne
Rassismus, ohne Diskriminie-
rung, ohne Hetze!
●Für ein besseres Leben für alle
– unabhängig von Herkunft,
Geschlecht oder Religion!
●Lasst uns laut und entschlossen
für die Werte eintreten, die uns
als Gesellschaft zusammenhal-
ten: Respekt, Menschlichkeit
und Toleranz.
Die Losungen hatten klare Botschaften: „Das ist meine Wahlheimat. Ich bleibe hier!“; „Nicht mal auf meinem Plakat ist Platz für Nazis“; „Ich mag Nazis generell nicht“; „Nazis hatten wir schon! War KACKE!“; „Bunt statt Braun“ und vieles mehr stand dort zu lesen.
Auffällig war, dass die Demonstranten trotz ihrer guten Hör- und Sichtbarkeit weitgehend unter sich blieben. Während die Cafés gut besucht waren und auch viele Menschen durch die Stadt flanierten zog der Demonstrationszug ohne Rückkopplung an ihnen vorbei. Kein Zulauf, keine vernehmbare Zustimmung. Häufig belustigte Neugier. Unter den Passanten und Zaungästen in der Innenstadt von Winsen waren zahlreiche Migranten. Sie könnten ein ursächliches Interesse an der anstehenden Bundestagswahl haben, so die Vermutung. Aber auch diese Zaungäste wurden ganz offensichtlich nicht von den Demonstranten erreicht. Ihre Reaktionen reichten von Gelächter, Belustigung und Kopfschütteln bis hin zur Platzflucht.
Einigen der Winsener Passanten, ihrem Äußeren nach keine Migranten, passte offenbar die Demonstration gar nicht. Ihr Protest blieb jedoch relativ leise und verhalten. Kommentare wie „linke Spinner“, „versiffte Grüne“, „Idioten“, „die ham gerade noch gefehlt“, waren zu vernehmen, verhallten aber weitgehend ungehört. Ein Demo-Zaungast, der nicht fotografiert werden und seinen Namen nicht in den Medien genannt wissen wollte, fragte, warum es denn dazu keine Gegen-Demo gebe? Wenn die Antifa marschiert, die Schwulen und die Grünen dabei sind und die Linken, dann müsse es doch auch dagegen eine Demonstration geben. Seine Vermutung: Die dürfen wohl nichts machen. Kopfschüttelnd wandte er sich sich ab und hinterließ im Weggehen den Kommentar: „Ich habe noch niemals die AfD ge-wählt, aber ich weiß jetzt auf jeden Fall schon, wen ich wähle.“ Wen er für seine Wahl favorisierte, erklärte er jedoch nicht.
Protest gegen die Anti-Rechts-Demo gab es am Rande aber doch. Eine Gruppe von etwa sieben sehr jungen Menschen zeigte, dass sie gegen die Demonstranten und ihr Anliegen sind. Wenig später benutzte ein etwa Zehnjähriger einen Plastikkanister als Pauke und skandierte „AfA, AfD, AfD!“ Niemand nahm das Kind und seine Paukenschläge ernst. Unter leichtem Gelächter zog der Tross weiter durch die Innenstadt.
Schließlich erreichte der Demonstrationszug den Endpunkt Schlossplatz – eingerahmt von einer kleinen Bühne, vom Winsener Schloss und vom Marstall. Hier wurden dann nochmals die bereits unterwegs skandierten Slogans wiederholt. Ein paar Redner feuerten die Demonstranten an, in ihrem Widerstand gegen den Rechtsruck in Deutschland auch nach der anstehenden Bundestagswahl nicht nachzulassen. In den Reden wurde nicht nur die AfD als Feindbild der Demokratie genannt. Starker Protest wurde auch gegen die CDU/CSU und besonders gegen deren Kanzlerkandidaten Friedrich Merz gerichtet. Er wurde als Steigbügelhalter für den aufkommenden Faschismus in Deutschland gebrandmarkt. Hier wurde besonders kritisiert, dass Friedrich Merz im Wahlkampf am Mittwoch, 29. Januar 2025, die Stimmen der AfD billigend in Kauf genommen hatte, um einen „Fünf-Punkte-Plan“, der die Zurückweisung von Flüchtlingen an den deutschen Grenzen fordert, mit den Stimmen der AfD mehrheitsfähig zu machen. Dieser Antrag bekam die von Merz erhoffte parlamentarische Mehrheit. Zwei Tage später scheiterte ein weiterer CDU/CSU-Antrag für das sogenannte „Zustrom-begrenzungsgesetz“ im Bundestag. Als Kanzlerkandidat der Union hatte Friedrich Merz einen radikalen Kurswechsel in der Asyl- und Migrationspolitik angekündigt. Diesen Kurswechsel mit der ausdrücklichen Zustimmung der AfD kritisierten sowohl die Politiker der Grünen, der SPD und der Partei Die Linke als auch die Demonstranten auf dem Schlossplatz von Winsen (Luhe).
Das Ende der Demonstration „Für Vielfalt, gegen den Rechtsruck“ wurde schließlich durch ein scheinbar nicht enden wollendes Protest-Lied, begleitet auf der Klampfe, eingeleitet. Nach gefühlten 14 Strophen, die auch noch in einem sehr jammernden Ton vorgetragen wurden, hatten manche Demonstrationsteilnehmer den offensichtlichen Wunsch, dass die Veranstaltung dann auch endlich beendet werden könnte. Protest-Lied geht anders.
Fazit:
Selbst wenn die Winsener Demo deutliche Schwächen hatte, so war sie doch ein wichtiges und ehrliches Signal, die Demokratie in Deutschland bei der anstehenden Bundestagswahl zu schützen. Und das ist auf jeden Fall auch gut so.
Montag, 24. Februar 2025, die Bundestagswahl ist gelaufen, die AfD ist nach der CDU/CSU die zweitstärkste politische Kraft in Deutschland. Als Regierungspartei wird die CDU/CSU zeigen müssen, wie worttreu sie sich gegen einen Schulterschluss mit der AfD behaupten wird – und zwar nicht nur über die volle Distanz der nächsten Legislatur. Diese deutsche Regierung wird auch daran gemessen, wie sie es mit konkret den Menschenrechten, mit dem Völkerrecht, mit dem bislang vereinbarten EU-Recht und mit dem in Deutschland geltenden Asylrecht hält. Weitere Gradmesser werden die Klima-, Umwelt-, Sozial- und die Wirtschaftspolitik sein. Nicht zuletzt werden auch die Flüchtlingspolitik und ihre Politik zum Ukrainekrieg maßgebend dafür sein, wie die Weichenstellung für die Bundestagswahl 2029 ausfallen wird. Die Zeichen dafür stehen heute bereits auf Sturm! Denn die AfD konnte als einzige Partei im Bundestag ihr Ergebnis bei der Bundestagswahl 2025 verdoppeln.

Once upon a time, in Seattle, we all laughed and joked that, considering the popularity of Starbucks in Japan, that there would never be anything like Seattle's Best Coffee there. Well, how times have changed. I guess maybe Starbucks buying SBC may have something to do with it!

Makkah Masjid (Arabic: and Urdu: مکہ مسجد, Telugu: మక్కా మసీదు) is one of the oldest mosques in Hyderabad, Andhra Pradesh, India, And it is one of the largest Mosques in India. Makkah Masjid is a listed heritage building in the old city of Hyderabad, close to the historic landmarks of Chowmahalla Palace, Laad Bazaar, and Charminar.
Muhammad Quli Qutb Shah, the fifth ruler of the Qutb Shahi dynasty, commissioned bricks to be made from the soil brought from Mecca, the holiest site of Islam, and used them in the construction of the central arch of the mosque, thus giving the mosque its name. It formed the centerpiece around which the city was planned by Muhammad Quli Qutub Shah
Makkah Masjid was built during the reign of Muhammad Quli Qutb Shah, the 6th Qutb Shahi Sultan of Golconda (now Hyderabad). The three arched facades have been carved from a single piece of granite, which took five years to quarry. More than 8,000 workers were employed to build the mosque. Muhammad Quli Qutb Shah personally laid the foundation stone. The construction was later completed by Mughal Emperor Aurangzeb after conquering Hyderabad.
Jean-Baptiste Tavernier, the French explorer, in his travelogue observed;
"It is about 50 years since they began to build a splendid pagoda in the town which will be the grandest in all India when it is completed. The size of the stone is the subject of special accomplishment, and that of a niche, which is its place for prayer, is an entire rock of such enormous size that they spent five years in quarrying it, and 500 to 600 men were employed continually on its work. It required still more time to roll it up on to conveyance by which they brought it to the pagoda; and they took 1400 oxen to draw it.
Architecture and design
The main hall of the mosque is 75 feet high, 220 feet wide and 180 feet long, enough to accommodate 10,000 worshipers at a time. Fifteen arches support the roof of the main hall, five on each of the three sides. A wall rises on the fourth side to provide Mihrab.
At the peak of the minarets flanking the mosque is an arched gallery, and above that a smallish dome and a spire. Inscriptions from the Qur'an adorn many of the arches and doors. The main structure of the mosque is sandwiched between two massive octagonal columns made out of a single piece of granite. The cornices running around the entire mosque structure and the floral motifs and friezes over the arches remind the tourist of the great attention paid to detail in Qutub Shahi architecture. They have a close resemblance to the arches at Charminar and Golkonda Fort.
On the four sides of the roof on the main mosque, the ramparts are made of granite planks in the shape of inverted conches perched on pedestals. From the cornice of the mosque, its minarets are not as high as the minarets on the mazaar (Nizams tombs) haven from their cornice. The octagonal columns have arched balconies on level with the roof of the mosque with an awning for a canopy, above which the column continues upwards till it is crowned by a dome and spire.
[edit]Tombs
The entrance courtyard of the mosque, a rectangular, arched and canopied building houses the marble graves of Asaf Jahi rulers. This structure came up during the rule of the Asaf Jah rulers. It contains the tombs of the Nizams and their family.
At both ends of this resting place for the Asaf Jahs and very much a part of it, are two rectangular blocks with four minarets each. These minarets have elegant and circular balconies with low ornamental walls and arches. Above them is an octagonal inverted platter from which the rest of the minaret soars till it is arrested by a dome and a spire.

This is a page from the Adventure in Manhood booklet you receive when you go on an Adventure in Manhood-sponsored camping trip.
I DID NOT GO ON THIS TRIP BUT I KNOW SOMEONE WHO HAS.
What this page says: If you didn't feel ashamed already because of your Same-Sex Attraction, you should feel ashamed now.
One of the funniest excerpts from this booklet (of which I didn't take a picture) is the rules page: Participants are not allowed to masturbate on the trip.
Please enjoy photos of the Sportage in Techno Orange. It's one of bold and unique colors of the Sportage.
