Meczet Muhamada Alego (Meczet Alabastrowy). Dach pokryty płytkami alabastrowymi - takimi płytami były kiedyś pokryte w całości Piramidy.
Truly a warm kind thoughtful and beloved man by all....I photographed him many times and he laughed sometimes at all the silly photogs (like me) making such a big deal about him.

El 8 de mayo de 1967 Muhammad Ali, pierde su título de Campeón del Mundo de Boxeo por negarse a ir a la guerra de Vietnam ya que la consideraba contraria a sus ideas religiosas y además, no estaba de acuerdo con la misma.
La frase que aparece en la foto, es más amplia y es la siguiente: ¿Por qué me piden ponerme un uniforme e ir a 10000 millas de casa y arrojar bombas y tirar balas a gente de piel oscura mientras los negros de Louisville son tratados como perros y se les niegan los derechos humanos más simples? No voy a ir a 10000 millas de aquí y dar la cara para ayudar a asesinar y quemar a otra pobre nación simplemente para continuar la dominación de los esclavistas blancos.
Leyendo cosas sobre él, me ha sorprendido descubrir que en el año 1964 grabó la canción "Stand by me", cuando aún era Cassius Clay, y aquí os la dejo: www.youtube.com/watch?v=BtIF0OqRnOE
This training bell was used at Angelo Dundee's World Famous 5th St. Gym, owned by where Muhammad Ali, known then as Cassius Clay, trained in 1960s.
The Sports: Leveling the Playing Field exhibit, part of the Community Galleries on the third floor of the National Museum of African American History and Culture, explores the contributions of athletes, both on and off the field. Because sports were among the first and most high-profile organizations to accept African Americans on terms of relative equality, sports have a unique role in American culture.
The National Museum of African American History and Culture (NMAAHC), administered by the Smithsonian Institute, was established in December 2003 and opened its permanent home in September 2016. The 350,000-square-foot, 10-story (five above and five below ground) was built to the postmodern design of Phil Freelon's Freelon Group, Sir David Adjaye's Adjaye Associates and Davis Brody Bond. The above ground floors feature an inverted step pyramid surrounded by a bronze architectural scrim, which reflects a crown used in Yoruba culture. With more than 40,000 objects in its collection, although only about 3,500 items are on display, the NMAAHC is the world's largest museum dedicated to African-American history and culture.
The Smithsonian Institution, an educational and research institute and associated museum complex, administered and funded by the government of the United States and by funds from its endowment, contributions, and profits from its shops and its magazines, was established in 1846. Although concentrated in Washington DC, its collection of over 136 million items is spread through 19 museums, a zoo, and nine research centers from New York to Panama.
In recent years, folk bands, Sufi mystics and other artists have been performing their music, rituals and dances in the Citadel during the holy and festive month of Ramadan.
Here a Sufi group perform the tannoura dance. Videos of the event are available on my YouTube channel
The swap consisted of altering playing cards using the kinds of each suit as the theme, my partner also collected wooden vases but all I could find was a small wood pot with a lid and also sent some bits and pieces for her ATC making, because this partner said the Coyote was her guide I found some pictures of them from Google to put on her letter and envelope.

“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.
March participants on Saturday, Dec 6 - Day 9 - began their march from Russo's Pizza on Route 61 in Orwigsburg, PA by walking up to Muhammad Ali's Deer Lake Training Camp. The camp's manager Mick Stefanek welcomed us with a magnificent tour of the facilities, allowing us to experience the restored historic facilities as they existed during the renowned boxer's time there.
Afterwards, we walked down to a home a couple miles away that was an Underground Railroad site.
These autographed boxing gloves were worn by Muhammad Ali in about 1974. The are on display at the Museum of American History in Washington, D. C.
Spotted in the window of a local pharmacy in town.
This is in my opinion unfair as Muhammad Ali is a legend and the pharmacy's have been ripping off the nation along with the builders, bankers, politicians and plonkers.
I can also see the pharmacy's view a small bit I suppose. Mary is a complete spanner and should be knocked out of her office.
I uploaded this because I'm still not too sure about it and I thought it was worth sharing.
