Sen. Dante Bartolomeo talks with Test Logic President Rod Gwillam on Monday, July 15, 2013 during a tour of the manufacturer's facilities in Middletown. Test Logic builds test bed systems for the aerospace industry to test various engine and transmission components; in the last two years, 66 percent of Test Logic's sales have been to overseas countries like England, Germany, France, Japan, Australia, Turkey and Ethiopia. A new state law passed by the legislature this year puts more focus on the value of Connecticut's manufacturing exports.
Las cuevas de Ajantā son célebres mundialmente por sus 29 grutas artificiales pintadas y esculpidas para el culto budista entre el siglo II a. C. y el siglo VI d.C. Fueron descubiertas para "Occidente" en 1819 por un cazador inglés que perseguía un tigre, y han sido declaradas Patrimonio de la Humanidad.
La entrada a las grutas está situada en una hondonada boscosa en el centro de los montes Indhyagiri , la cual recorre el pequeño río Vaghorā, un torrente de montaña que forma una serie de cascadas en su camino. Las cuevas han sido excavadas sobre la pared más abrupta de la hondonada y se escalonan durante una decena y una cuarentena de metros a lo largo y sobre el lecho del torrente, tales grutas se entrecruzan partiendo desde el fondo de la roca siguiendo así un modelo de arquitectura bastante utilizado en el arte de India.
Las pinturas que hay en ellas le han valido el título de "la Capilla Sixtina de Oriente", destacando las que representan episodios de la vida de Buda, llamadas "jātaka"; las más célebres corresponden a las del llamado Ciclo de Ajantā realizadas durante el periodo de apogeo del arte Gupta y la época postgupta.
Las grutas están clasificadas en dos categorías; aquellas que servían de refugio a los monjes durante la estación de las lluvias durante el monzón (vihara) y aquellas que servían principalmente como salas de asamblea y oración (caitya). La primera de estas categorías están habitualmente constituidas por un pasadizo (porche), recubierto por una techumbre sostenida por pilares, en algunas desaparecido, tras el pasadizo había un salón de 10 u 11 m por 7 m. aprox., donde a izquierda y derecha y hacia el fondo se ubican las celdas excavadas en la roca, frecuentemente al fondo y en el centro, existe en un nicho una imagen tallada de Buda. Por su parte las salas de oración penetran más profundamente en la roca, llegando a tener cada sala hasta una longitud de 14 m. con una stupa al fondo de la misma.
En lo concerniente a su antigüedad, estas grutas se clasifican en tres grupos: las construcciones más antiguas (n° 8, 12, 13, 15a, 9 y 10) datan del periodo que va desde el siglo II al siglo I a. C. es decir en tiempos de la dinastía Shātavāhana, la cual reinó en la India Central, y pertenecen al budismo hinayana. El segundo grupo data desde el siglo III hasta finales del siglo V, durante la dinastía de los Vākātaka, y el tercero de entre finales del siglo VI y finales del siglo VIII (dinastía de los Chālukya de Vātāpi), y las cuevas de estos dos últimos grupos pertenecen al budismo mahāyāna. La mayor parte de los muros interiores de las grutas están cubiertos por pinturas al fresco de calidades diversas. Algunas de estas pinturas no poseen fecha, sin embargo un estudio de los motivos representados permite tener una idea bastante aproximada de su periodo de concepción y así clasificarlas cronológicamente.
Ajantā ha sido un monasterio y una universidad. El monje y viajero budista chino Xuanzang relata que Dignāga, el célebre filósofo, autor de célebres libros de lógica residió allí. En su apogeo, este lugar dio alojamiento a muchos centenares de personas, docentes y alumnos inclusive.

Once in a while, our government ministers show that they are still capable of thinking. It gives me hope that not everything happening in our country is a result of bumbling leaders. At times, it amazes me that we have some how managed to survive almost 50 yrs of 'merdeka' still mostly in one piece.
In light of the recent, media hyped, cases where people lost money to scams, the Deputy Internal Security Minister has come out to tell people to stop responding to the scams and they will die a natural death. He is right to say that "no amount of enforcement by his ministry could stop criminals from finding new ways to cheat the public."
That is true. No crime is committed until it's too late to take any action. All these silly 419-er schemes prey on the natural greed of man. They will usually offer a decent sum of money in return for personal information or some form of 'deposit' from the victim. Up until that point, no crime has been committed as it's just an email/letter that has been sent. There's nothing illegal about sending emails/letters.
Once the crime is committed, and the victims cheated of their money, the money is already gone. There is little that the police can do to hunt down these criminals as they are often working beyond our borders. So, like he says "these unscrupulous people are never short of tricks to dupe the gullible ones and these scams will keep on recurring but in different forms."
This reminds me of a 419-er that I had received before. It was a pretty interesting letter that I brought to the lab to show my lab mates and supervisor. They had sent me a letter with a Spanish postmark. It claims that I had won a Spanish lottery for the sum of over EUR 600,000. The curious part is that the letter was sent to my house address in college. I was curious as to how they got my house address because I'd never given it out before. They must've gotten it from the college electoral roll.
As the Minister said, "It boiled down to the people themselves who are greedy and wanted fast and easy money - a fact that con men exploited." That is oh so true. I wonder why these people do not remember the story of the dog and it's bone. There is no such thing as a free lunch in this world. What surprised me recently was the case of a college student in Malaysia losing almost RM 150,000 to such a scam. I pity the parents as it's fairly obvious that it's the parent's money that went down the drain.
Done in ArtRage3. It just kind of happened, but I find the colors and the balance of shapes pleasing.
It’s a short time time-lapse work. It could be said that a trial work.
Short time time-lapse scenes from the Bosphorus.
I inspired from the “deep breath” work of Animal Logic company shooted for Greenpeace. I added camera motion on it with the aid of (Ditogear Omnislider ) slider.
Besides I prepared small CGI works for the time-lapse work.

gray and rainy here for the last few days. Fine by me, as I've been working/playing pulling together photos and words to complete a project.
A brief post on iron, here.

Um dos motivos alegados para a escolha do território onde foi criada a cidade de Belo Horizonte era a ótima qualidade das águas das bacias dos ribeirões Arrudas e Onça.
Hoje, boa parte dos córregos da cidade está encoberta e canalizada e são poucas as águas sem esgoto ou lixo. Mas ainda há, a poucos quilômetros do centro da capital, cachoeiras, quedas d'água, corredeiras, praias, nascentes e parques.
Acreditamos que o primeiro passo para uma retomada das águas na cidade é o conhecimento do território: visitar córregos escondidos ou à mostra, conhecer suas nascentes, nadar onde a água é limpa e lamentar onde ela é suja, viver a natureza urbana.
Para isso, retomamos as cicloexpedições, que em suas primeiras edições promoveram visitas ciclísticas ao ribeirão Arrudas e ao Onça. A escolha pelas bicicletas para as visitas é uma inversão proposital: sabemos que o enterramento dos córregos nas cidades sempre serviu à lógica rodoviarista, de construir mais e mais espaços para automóveis.
Em 2018, serão quatro cicloexpedições: no córrego do Leitão (junho), no Ribeirão Izidora (julho), no Navio-Baleia (agosto) e nos Parques da bacia do Onça (setembro).
Em cada uma delas, buscaremos criar encontros com pessoas ativas na vida dos cursos d'água, com elementos naturais no meio da cidade e terminar em piquenique e alegria.
Programação:
9h30: Concentração na Estação BHBus Vilarinho
10h30: Vilarinho: o rio invisível
11h15: A Matinha de Venda Nova está ameaçada
12h: Vila e Cachoeira do Jardim dos Comerciários
13h: Piquenique no Parque Baleares
16h: Caravana pedal+metrô em direção à Praça da Estação, onde estará rolando A Ocupação #11, que reúne diversas manifestações políticas e culturais

A set of gates to All Saints Primary School, Waddington. The gates were designed and made by Richard Bett. The design was inspired by one of the most important people to have lived in Waddington - George Boole. Boole invented Boolean Logic, the digital language of computers, and these shapes are how logic gates are shown on an electronic schematic.
