A trip to London with Becca to watch U2 in concert at Wembley Stadium and to re-visit Madame Tussauds Waxworks. There are people in these photos, I don't know but in some way they look good.
This fight took place on March 29, 1966.

Muhammad Ali fought another boxing match with George Chuvalo on May 1, 1972. Ali won both fights through unanimous decisions on points.
Like all mosques you have to remove your shoes before entering which is why the carpet has lasted so long (it's original).

The mosque of Muhammad Ali is relatively 'new' in Egyptian standards, built in the 1830's. It is situated in an older structure which is known as the 'Citadel of Cairo' which was ordered and built between 1100-1200 AD by Saladin to protect Cairo from the Christian Crusaders

When heavingweight champion Joe Frazier (26-0, 23 KOs) took on Muahmmad Ali (31-0, 26 KOs) on March 8, 1971 at Madison Square Garden, it was dubbed the "Fight of the Century."
Ali had been stripped of his ttitle by boxing's governing bodies after refusing induction into the military and publicly voicing his conscientious objection to the Vietnam War in 1967. Frazier won the title from Jimmy Ellis in 1970. Each fighter was guaranteed a then record $2.5M million purse for the fight.
The matchup attracted intense media coverage and became symbolic of the politcally divided country with Ali representing the anti-establishment counter culture, and Frazier inadvertantly representing the conservative, pro-war faction. Inside the ring, their diverse styles promised to provide a fight that would be just as interesting, pitting Ali's speed and ability against Frazier's power.
The fight managed to exceed its hype. Ali dominated the first three rounds peppering Frazier with jabs. Frazier caught up in the fourth with a series of left hooks and body blows. Heading into the 11th round, the two pugilists were locked in a near draw when Frazier caught Ali, backed into a corner, witha crushing left hook. Ali survived the round, but looked tired after his long layoff from the sport. In the 15th, Frazier sent Ali to the mat with a left hook for only the third time in his career and he barely survived the round. Frazier retained the title with a unanimous decision, handing Ali his first professional loss.
The rivals would go on to battle twice more, with Ali winning both the rematch at the Garden in 1974, and the rubber match dubbed "The Thrilla in Manilla" in 1975.
In 2007, Ali-Frazier I was selected as ranked #3 in the 50 Greatest Moments at Madison Square Garden.
I've been meaning to take this photograph for five years. Finally.

Greatness is achieving a goal & going through the journey of reaching that destination. It is about discovering your best potential and realizing that learning takes place daily. Greatness demands that we go that proverbial mile and traverse unchartered waters with courage & a determined spirit. Approximately 8:59am, July 31, 2007

“Fighter’s Heaven”, Muhammad Ali’s Training Camp in Deer Lake, Pennsylvania, was the training facility built by Muhammad Ali, where he trained for some of his biggest fights. It is now open to the public, free of charge, to tour.
On our way from New Zealand to England in 1972. We stopped at Los Angeles , California. My Dad spotted the then British Boxer Joe Bugner and asked if we could have our photo taken with him. Joe was returning to Britain after signing the contract to Fight Muhammad Ali for the Heavyweight Boxing championship of the world. My Dad asked a man who was with Joe if he could take a photo for him ? and asked if he knew how to use the camera ? Joe laughed and said "yep he (the other man) knows a bit about cameras. And so he took this photo. turns out the man who took the photo was Monte Fresco and yes he knew a bit about cameras..... and me in the middle... I didnt know who any of them were :-) but it was a piece of history I suppose...

Fear Not is a community-based art project that creates an anti-fear environment both on the street and in art spaces. The ongoing exhibition will include over 150 images of Fear Not Indirect Mail that has been delivered on the streets of San Francisco, Oakland, Brisbane, Austin, Chicago, Nashville, Kapa’a, and Wailua in the United States, Karlsruhe in Germany, and Florence and Milan in Italy, and London in England will be on view. Fear Not Indirect Mail involves participants writing anti-fear messages on postcards that are turned into magnets and placed somewhere out in the community (on bus stops, street signs, etc.) for someone else to find.
Jennifer Maria Harris: "I have shown my work in traditional art venues for many years, but I have also always created artworks that exist outside of those spaces and that invite and involve people from all walks of life, even some who might not feel comfortable in, or interested in, a gallery or museum.
In the fall of 2007 I read an interview in The Sun magazine with Irish poet and philosopher John O'Donohue. The interview focused on questions of spirituality and creativity, and along the way it mentioned that the phrase "Do not be afraid" appears 366 times in the Bible. I imagined the person who had gone through over a thousand pages looking for that one message, and it made me think about how we are constantly making choices with regard to filtering the information around us, whether that's information from the Bible or another religious text, from friends and family, or from our own thoughts. That made me interested in creating a project that would make those choices more transparent.
As human animals, it is natural for us to choose to focus on and communicate about what to be afraid of. In our current culture, where we are surrounded by an overwhelming amount of information from around the globe, this results in an equally overwhelming amount of fear-oriented messages, both in our mass media and in the information we share with each other.
The Fear Not project seeks to address this culture of fear, which cuts across communities and contributes to the divisions in our society, by inviting people to consciously deliver anti-fear messages to each other and create a culture of Fear Not. The messages tell people not to be afraid, but I don't think the power behind the message is in the words. It's in the reminder that we can choose to see those words in the world around us. It's in the reminder that we can then choose to pass those words on. It's in the fact that someone else chose to share them with us, without regard for our race, religion, or political beliefs.
In all of these ways, I hope to emphasize how the power to shape our emotional environment, and the kind of world in which we choose to live, lies with us, not with the media or anyone else.
