Chinese police state spies are everywhere. This guy was looking for Falungong but he couldnt find any for organ harvesting to sell to rich French men that day.
Life Imitates Art
My cat, Stinky, lies down next to a cat statue in the rock garden and my desert tortoise, Detour, walks past a tortoise statue. (Sept. 24, 2013)

Life is full of colours. We can be living in a busy world, and completely neglect the truth meanings of people around us. Is a life without love and meaning colourful?
Do Not Go Gentle into that Good Night
Old age should burn and rave at close of day;
Though wise men at their end know dark is right,
Because their words had forked no lightning they
Do not go gentle into that good night.
Good men, the last wave by, crying how bright
Their frail deeds might have danced in a green bay,
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
Wild men who caught and sang the sun in flight,
And learn, too late, they grieved it on its way,
Do not go gentle into that good night.
Grave men, near death, who see with blinding sight
Blind eyes could blaze like meteors and be gay,
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
And you, my father, there on the sad height,
Curse, bless, me now with your fierce tears, I pray
Do not go gentle into that good night.
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

Non andartene docile in quella buona notte,
la vecchiaia dovrebbe ardere e infierire
quando cade il giorno;
infuria, infuria contro il morire della luce.
Benché i saggi infine conoscano che il buio
è giusto,
poiché dalle parole loro non diramò alcun
conforto,
non se ne vanno docili in quella buona notte.
I buoni, che in preda all'ultima onda
splendide proclamano le loro fioche imprese,
avrebbero potuto danzare in una verde baia,
e infuriano, infuriano contro il morire
della luce.
I selvaggi, che il sole a volo presero
e cantarono,
tardi apprendono come lo afflissero
nella sua via,
non se ne vanno docili in quella buona notte.
Gli austeri, vicini a morte, con cieca vista
scorgono
che i ciechi occhi quali meteore potrebbero brillare
ed esser gai
e infuriano, Infuriano contro il morire
della luce.
E tu, padre mio, là sulla triste altura,
condanna, feriscimi ora con le tue fiere
lacrime.
Io prego:
Non andartene docile in quella buona notte.
Infuria, infuria contro il morire
della luce.
Dylan Thomas

Here is the exhibit area from The Life of Paper.
Though you might be tempted to say, "Oh, no, not another penguin," there is a deeper message to this piece than just origami innovation.
These penguins stack. Stackable penguins? You bet. With a hexagonal base and a hexagonal "shelf" at shoulder level, they can stack quite high. For reference, the blue paper representing the water is 9 feet square.
The “Spirit of Life,” also known as the Spencer Trask Memorial, was created by Daniel Chester French (1850-1931) and dedicated June 26, 1915. The monument is part of the wonderful landscape of Congress Park, in downtown Saratoga Springs, New York. Smithsonian Institute Research Information Service (SIRIS) inventory #76004303
We loved so many, yet hated so much!

Today is my birthday. That is why I decided to upload a SOOC.
About 500 cyclists raised more than $1 million (a new record) in this year's Friends For Life Bike Rally -- a six-day, 600km journey from Toronto to Montreal. Friends For Life is the largest fundraiser for the Toronto People With AIDS Foundation. www.bikerally.org/
I want to live my life to the absolute fullest
To open my eyes to be all I can be
To travel roads not taken, to meet faces unknown
To feel the wind, to touch the stars
I promise to discover myself
To stand tall with greatness
To chase down and catch every dream
LIFE IS AN ADVENTURE :)
LIFE IS BEAUTIFUL :)
Relay For Life (often shortened to Relay) is the main volunteer-driven cancer fundraising event of the American Cancer Society. Originating in the United States, the Relay For Life event has spread to 21 countries.[1] Relay events are held in local communities, campus universities, military bases, and in cyberspace. Although the main objective of Relay is to raise money for cancer research and cancer patients, the event is held to spread cancer awareness, celebrate the lives of survivors, remember those who lost their lives to cancer, and unite a community in the fight against cancer. It is estimated that Relay For Life events have raised over $3 billion to date. (wikipedia.org)
Each time you completed a round around the track, you get a bead. I only got 11 beads because I had to leave early. Great event for a good cause.
