Facing south. On Ketu in the 12th house in the rashi chart, Anand emails:
| From what I have read, Ketu in 12th in the rashi chart shows spirituality, especially if placed in benefic signs. If placed in say Scorpio (as 12th house), Ketu may give interest in mysticism. So, while moksha cannot be predicted, Ketu gives a different view of life, a more mature vision, and a rejection of that which is mundane and material. One may say, how Ketu, who is headless, can give such elevated thinking? The cause for rebirth is desire. The seed of desire is placed when we see something with our eyes (physical eyes or mind's eye), and desire leads to rebirth and the attendant problems of maya, ego, etc. Since Ketu is headless, he has no eyes ! So kahan se rebirth !!? Hence Ketu is the significator for moksha.
| To see moksha one has to look into some special vargas, and for that the birth time has to be rectified. But broadly, Ketu in 12th at least makes you want to pull away from maya. The same can be said for Jupiter in 12th or Moon in the 12th. With the caveat that all these planets must be in dignity and the connected dharma houses are strong.

I moved to the Dorset area about 42 years ago, and in all that time I have never visited Lulworth. On the 5th March 2013 I finally arrived at Lulworth on my first visit. There are many places to see here, the large car park currently was £3.00 for two hours parking , rising accordingly. The pathway up the side of the hillside is daunting, and when arriving at the top tiring. The climb is a nightmare for anyone that is not fit and healthy. Then you have another long walk down to Durdle Door. The return Journey takes about one hour walking.
Lulworth Cove is a cove near the village of West Lulworth, on the Jurassic Coast World Heritage Site in Dorset, southern England. The cove is one of the world's finest examples of such a landform, and is a tourist location with about 500,000 visitors a year. It is close to the rock arch of Durdle Door and other Jurassic Coast sites. The steps at the eastern end of the beach lead to Fossil Forest and Mupe Bay, with a stunning walk along the cliff top. The cove has formed because there are bands of rock of alternating resistance running parallel to the shore ( a concordant coastline ). On the seaward side the clays and sands have been eroded away. A narrow ( less than 30 metre ) band of Portland limestone rocks form the shoreline. Behind this is a narrow ( less than 50 metre ) band of slightly less resistant Purbeck limestone. Behind this are 300–350 metres of much less resistant clays and green sands ( Wealden clays, Gault and Upper Green sand ).
Forming the back of the cove is a 250 metre wide band of chalk, which is considerably more resistant than the clays and sands, but less resistant than the limestones. The entrance to the cove is a narrow gap in the limestone bands. This was formed by a combination of erosional processes by wave action, glacial melt waters and the processes of weathering. The wide part of the cove is where the weak clays and green sands have been eroded. The back of the cove is the chalk, which the sea has been unable to erode as fast as it does not dissolve in the sea acids.
Lulworth acts as a gateway to this part of the Jurassic Coast. As well as the cove, across Hambury Tout ( the large chalk hill to the west ) is Durdle Door, a natural arch. To the east there is a fossilised forest. Lulworth is also close to Kimmeridge, famous for its rocky shore and fossils. The sea floor in and around the cove yields fossils, and oil sands beneath the sea bed form the largest British oil field outside the North Sea area, and contain the highest quality oil in Europe. Geologists and geographers have been interested in the area since the beginning of the 19th century, and in the 1830’s the first serious study of the area took place. Since then the area has drawn Geology students from all over the world.
Stair Hole, less than half a mile away, is an infant cove which suggests what Lulworth Cove would have looked like a few hundred thousand years ago. The sea has made a gap in the Portland and Purbeck limestone here, as well as small arch. The sea has made its way through to the Wealdon clays and begun eroding them. The clay shows obvious signs of slumping, and is eroding very rapidly. Stair Hole shows one best example of limestone folding ( the Lulworth crumple ) in the world, caused by movements in the Earth's crust millions of years ago. Folding can also be seen at nearby Durdle Door and at Lulworth cove itself.

Pride in London Parade had 35,000 people marching. It started just after midday at Hyde Park Corner and carried on until Whitehall Place. The crowds came out on a warm partly cloudy day and packed the streets all along the route. There were stages at many locations including Trafalgar Square, Soho and Leicester Square. It was estimated that more than a million people came to watch. The parade was briefly stopped by Stop the Oil protests in front of the Coke float, this lasted 20 minutes before police came and arrested seven. This happened right in front of me.

There are plenty of baths in old Tbilisi, as there seem to be sulphur springs with healing properties.
My wife can swim; I have never thought of myself as a swimmer. But for nearly forty years I've loved snorkelling and, with a mask and snorkel on, I could swim for an hour. Here we were 150 metres off shore at the Cuban beach we spent a few days at this week. Shot on Fuji Pro 160S film in my Minolta Weathermatic Dual35 underwater camera.

There’s just as much to be said about couples who have destination weddings in the Outer Banks, Croatan Ridge, as there is about the Outer Banks herself. And while the Outer Banks is one of the top ten wedding destinations in the continental United States, you’d never guess that when you’re here. It’s too quiet, and the peacefulness, tranquility and beauty of the Outer Banks is still intact.

August 23rd 2014
West Bagborough lies about six miles North of Taunton in Somerset. The village is tucked into the slope of the Quantock Hills and toward the lower end of the village the parish church dedicated to Saint Pancras can be found. One has to leave ones car by the lychgate and then follow a path for about 200yds up to the church.
The church could be described as a shrine to the work of Sir John Ninian Comper. In the period between the First and Second World Wars he designed much of the stained glass that can be found in the church, the Rood across the chancel arch and the decorated font cover. It is a pity that some of this work is beginning to show signs that conservation is needed to preserve the items for future generations. I can understand that a rural congregation may have limited resources for this but I personally feel that the items by Comper are of national importance.
This church has taken me several visits to get the pictures I wanted. Therefore the viewer may find that pictures have different dates for when they were taken. I hope that the pictures I have taken adequately record this church and its treasures.
This picture shows a detail from the Rood group spanning the chancel arch in the church. It was erected after the First World War in memory of five men from the village who died in that war. The group was designed by Sir Ninian Comper and it is possible that the carving was carried out by local craftsmen under the supervision of Comper. This picture shows one of the four symbols of the evangelists incorporated into the central Cross of the group. Here the symbol is the winged lion of Saint Mark.
a detail from neoclassic archeology museum building in istanbul which was constructed during ottoman period. the detail also shows the confusion of cultures.
The explosion of color in the Back Bay usually doesn't occur until April but, with the crazy weather we've been having, nothing should surprise us anymore.
