The property at 1141 Jann Avenue, Opa-locka, FL 33054 is an officially recognized historic home known as the S.K. Haislip House.
Built in 1930, this property is heavily tied to the initial real estate boom and architectural fantasy of Opa-locka.
Architectural & Founding Significance
The home was constructed just four years after Opa-locka was incorporated by aviation pioneer Glenn Curtiss. Curtiss envisioned a city completely themed around the Arabian Nights folk tales.
The Style: The S.K. Haislip House reflects the Moorish Revival architecture that gives Opa-locka its unique, fantasy-inspired identity. This design language includes traditional arches and specialized masonry.
National Recognition: Due to its cultural and historical significance, the property was added to the National Register of Historic Places on August 17, 1987, as part of the Opa-locka Thematic Resource Area.
Structure & Modern Upgrades
Property Specs: It is a single-family home featuring 2 bedrooms and 1 bathroom, spanning 1,097 square feet of livable space on a 9,234-square-foot lot.
Preservation Status: Because it is a registered historic landmark, any changes to its exterior must be approved by local preservation authorities. For instance, in late 2024, the property underwent formal review and was issued a Certificate of Appropriateness by the Opa-locka Historic Environmental Preservation Board to allow a full, historically compliant roof replacement.
Transaction History
Public property records indicate that the home has maintained a highly stable ownership timeline, changing hands only once over the last several decades:
Last Sold: March 1983
Sale Price: $37,500

Laos is blessed with some of Asia’s nicest rivers, and many of them are mellow. Children spent the day at school, and by the afternoon they were doing the chores required of them…building a fire for the kitchen, sweeping the leaves into a pile, or caring for the young siblings strapped to their back …young boys and girls from the age of seven or eight attentive to the baby’s every need. Amongst this was the laughter of children playing in the river. But sometimes they skip their days at school, going fishing and collecting snails from the river, or using long bamboo poles to knock crickets from the trees. They eat the crickets live or drop them into bottles and take them home for lunch or dinner.
Photo taken nearby the Tad Lo waterfall near the little town Kieng Than Lei - Laos. These ragged little urchins spend most of their days not at school, but fishing and collecting snails from the river. School is important for ethnic minority kids, they should attend and complete primary education in order to overcome rural/urban, ethnic in the area of literacy and education. But it isn't that easy. The reason to skip school are the family economic considerations, involvement in family maintenance and subsistence tasks, the lack of perceived benefits from education. While poverty and lack of access are issues. In addition to these, ethnic minority kids have to face further barriers to education, including the distance from school facilities, their extreme poverty, and additional cultural barriers and the lack of fluency in the national language, Lao. The ethnic kids speak their own language. About 32% of all Laotians are related to Ethnic groups. Totally 160 ethnic groups and speak 82 distinct living languages.
...an old lady washing her clothes in the river gave us a beautiful smile; the Laos people are so friendly. Kids have a great time running on the rampart, swimming in the Sexet river at the Tad Lo waterfall, taking boat rides along the river and playing. A bit futher south men washing their elephants in the river. Lao seems a bit like heaven, the laughter is often & sincere, the rivers are cool and clean and not a speck of modern civilization in sight. In my perspective it is some of the best Laos can offer.
but danielle has been on of my closest friends since we were in the third grade. this makes me want to take intimate portraits of all of my close friends and family. i want to keep a piece of them with me forever. i want to shoot them the way that i see them.
Good morning Sunshine. Good morning Soul. Good Morning Earth. Good Morning Mist.
A peaceful morning, woken up by the sounds of the birds chirping and the cold breeze passing above the sleeping bag; the warm body within shudders awakened with a cold kiss of morning due. Taking in the first mountain breath; breathing in fresh air witnessing the rest of the world awakened from a distance.

Bangladesh remembers the martyrs of language movement.
International Mother Language Day (IMLD) is a worldwide annual observance held on 21 February to promote awareness of linguistic and cultural diversity and to promote multilingualism. First announced by UNESCO on 17 November 1999,[1] it was formally recognized by the United Nations General Assembly with the adoption of UN resolution 56/262 Multilingualism in 2002. Mother Language Day is part of a broader initiative "to promote the preservation and protection of all languages used by peoples of the world" as adopted by the UN General Assembly on May 16, 2007 in UN resolution 61/266, which also established 2008 as the International Year of Languages.[2][3][4][5][self-published source] The idea to celebrate International Mother Language Day was the initiative of Bangladesh. In Bangladesh 21 February is the anniversary of the day when Bangladeshis fought for recognition for the Bangla language.[6]

An old lady sat right in front of me, by a window side of a train compartment. She wore aristocracy like no other; around 75-80 years old, travelling alone from Kolkata. Her son would receive her from the station. She was communicating with her son over the cell phone. She was on the edge of her mood, at times relaxed and sometimes fidgety, as the train was running late. She was an expressive woman, as her gestures reflected her mood. She was ignorant about everything happening in the compartment, as she was eager to reach the station on time. I took a few shots of her gestures with my cell phone camera, secretly. They turned out to be pretty productive, as natural documentation of one’s body languages.

Language is one of the most important skills we will ever learn. Everything we do at home or work requires us to communicate with our families, friends and colleagues. Without language it is incredibly difficult to share our thoughts and feelings with others, to make lasting friendships, to give and receive information and to learn about the world in which we live.

Peony symbolizes many thing In the language of flowers,
a happy marriage and virility in Japan,
prosperity in China,
to the French hardiness or heaviness
for the British bashful shame
and in an American language of the flowers: anger or a frown
also his meaning has found like an aphrodisiac
Paeonia officinalis or European peony,is accepted in my country as a symbol of happy marriage and prosperity, and it's called a Božur.
~•~•~ ~•~•~ ~•~•~ ~•~•~
10th century.The Chinese name for the peony is "sho yu'"; meaning, most beautiful.
and represents prosperity. A legend says it was created by the moon goddess to reflect the moon’s beams during the night.
A similar belief about the peony lighting up the night comes from a Greek writer Aelianus (3rd century) who writes of one kind of peony that grows by the sea, opens at Summer solstice and shines like fire, while another kind, hidden away among the herbs during the day, at night shines like a star.
During the Middle Ages, "lunatics" were covered with peony leaves and petals, to cure them.
It was also believed that keeping peony seeds under your pillow, could prevent nightmares.
