Regarding the award-winning physicist Dr. Elliot McGucken at Princeton University, the late John Archibald Wheeler stated, "More intellectual curiosity, versatility and yen for physics than Elliot McGucken's I have never seen in any senior or graduate student. . . Originality, powerful motivation, and a can-do spirit make me think that McGucken is a top bet."
Dr. E would go on to heal the blind with his NSF-funded, award-winning Ph.D. dissertation which also laid down the foundations of Light Time Dimension Theory. Over the years, LTD Theory added foundational *physical* postulates, principles, and equations en route to becoming numerous books, with this one forming the simple, illustrated introduction.

The great thing about the beach is that it presents an entirely different universe from season to season, from day to day, from hour to hour, from second to second, with the ever changing wind, tides, clouds, and sun. A split second with tumbling surf and a sinking sun can make a vast different, resulting in entirely different photographs.

Principles of Mechanics by T.M. Goodeve, 1889.
Goodeve was a Professor of Mechanics and a Barrister-at-Law.
For students of engineering.
This copy signed, A.G. Ambrose [Alexander George Ambrose was a gasworks engineer and manager in New South Wales.]
Published by Longman Green, London. Brown cloth boards 357 pages 19cm x 13cm.
On Thursday 7th June, at Birmingham Children’s Hospital, a new paediatric chaplaincy book ‘Paediatric Chaplaincy: principles, practices and skills’ was formally launched as part of the annual conference of the Paediatric Chaplains’ Network. This exciting new book edited by Paul Nash, Mark Bartel and Sally Nash draws the expertise of healthcare chaplains from around the world and different faith traditions to highlight best practice and skills for chaplains working with neonates, infants, children, young people and their families.
Cork healthcare chaplain and clinical pastoral education supervisor the Rev Canon Dr Daniel Nuzum contributed a chapter to this new volume on ministry amongst neonatal patients and those who cannot speak. Daniel, drawing on his experience as a healthcare chaplain at Cork University Maternity Hospital, sets out innovative ways to provide meaningful pastoral care for babies and their families in the neonatal period.
The Rev George Handzo (Research & Quality, Healthcare Chaplaincy Network, USA) describes this new book as the ‘now go–to teaching text and reference work in the field’.
Presenting a paper at the Paediatric Chaplains’ Network Conference based on this work, Daniel highlighted the important role that chaplains have to play in a neonatal context when parents can experience much anxiety and uncertainty if their baby is ill.
Speaking at the launch Daniel said: ‘I am immensely proud to have shared in this international volume on paediatric chaplaincy and to have brought the experience of ministry in the neonatal unit at Cork University Maternity Hospital to the international stage. Working alongside highly skilled colleagues I have experienced first hand the difference that meaningful spiritual care can have with our youngest patients. I hope that this work will be of interest to colleagues both in chaplaincy and other disciplines as together we care for babies and their families.’

The UN Global Compact, UN Women, and the Inter-American Development Bank Group are collaborating to develop a diagnostic tool to support implementation of the Women's Empowerment Principles (WEPs) and help companies advance gender equality policies, strategies and programmes.
In this photo I used the principles of movement and emphasis. Movement is used in this image through the line of coins that draws the viewer's eye back. Emphasis is used through the placement of the coins in focus on the two points of the rule of thirds. For this image, I setup the coins in a well lit area and dropped water on them via an eye dropper. Then, I set my macro photography tubes and adjusted the manual camera settings for the image and tested what worked. Finally, i took several images focusing on the different coins each time.
I think I did well setting up and shooting an interesting subject. I would probably change the coins to make a pattern and try to get more in focus.
Title of photo: Wildlife Photography, Photo (#2)
Photo Number: 2
Objective 3: Elements and Principles of Design
The Principles of Design Demonstrated:
Emphasis: The emphasis of this photo is the central part of the tree, as it is the only part of the photo in focus. I would have liked to have the front of the tree in focus as well, but didn’t know how to properly set up the aperture in order to increase the depth of field for this photo.
Contrast: The contrast in this photo is important because most of the photo is a tree, mostly blue covered in moss and liken (which also either take a light blue or a solid blue colour) so the difference in blues is very important. I personally really enjoy blue in a nature shot, and this photo is easily one of my favourites, even though it is not my most interesting shot, and I could have done better.
Unity: There is nothing in this photo that does not belong; the main subject in this photo is the tree, and the moss and liken on the tree is definitely welcome in such a shot, nothing man-made is part of this shot (well, visible, I am sure something would be in the background if it was not blurred.) and everything fits in with the “Nature” theme.
The Elements of Design Demonstrated:
Line: The only real line in this photo is an implied one, in which you know that the subject is a tree, and a tree generally is thought of as a straight up line, it may affect the viewer of the photo differently than me (since I took the photo, and I know where it was, and how it happened) but I feel like the line of the tree leads the eye up a bit.
Colour: I really enjoy the colour in this photo, many blues, and many browns. Fortunately, as the blue seeps into the background it turns much lighter so it does not blend in with the tree as much.
Shape: I do not see much distinct shape in this photo, but I feel like the moss and liken has a bit of this, unfortunately, most of the moss is seen from a bad angle to create an example of this, and the bits that are good are blurred.
Form: I think that the look of the flakes and strings of moss create a clear 3D effect for this photo, I really enjoy the texture that the flakes give, not so much the strings. I don’t know if it is a general thing, but I personally feel really excited when I look at the flakes, I want to scrape them off of the tree.
Space: The positive space in this photo is the side of the tree, more specifically it is supposed to be the middle and foreground and leave the back parts of tree and moss blurred, but I did not manage to capture the foreground in as much detail as I would like, so it also seems like negative space.
Texture: I believe that there is quite a bit of texture in this photo, shown by the flakes of liken and bark on the tree, I can just imagine the rough feel of the bark and the crumble of the liken.
Objective 4: Lighting
Type of lighting: I think that this photo is a example of back lighting, as the light is coming mostly from the other side of the tree (I believe that there was cloud cover when I took the photo)
Objective 5: Post Production
Corrections/adjustments made AND/OR techniques applied: I believe that I messed with the curves because it was a bit too dark for my liking, but I do not think I had sharpened this photo as it was uploaded to Flickr before I knew how to sharpen photo’s.
Objective 6: Critique:
I really enjoy the colours in this photo, it is my only blue nature shot and easily one of my favourites, I particularly enjoy the colours of the moss on the tree. I really wish I had set the aperture a little larger so I could capture the foreground of the tree and the middle, but leaving out that bit of moss at the end, I think it would have made for a more interesting photo.
Objective 7: Photographic Styles Type/style of photography: Wildlife
The camera mode (P, Tv, Av, M): P, I did not know how to use the other camera modes correctly at the time of taking this photo, I still think that it turned out well, and very detailed.
f stop used: 6.3, This was the aperture that P mode set, if I was taking this photo now I would have set a greater one so that I could have more of the foreground in detail.
Shutter speed used: 1/100, The Shutter speed of this photo was also set by P mode, and I do not think I could do much better as I don’t know much about shutter speed. (Maybe it should have been a bit lower, since the focal length was 47mm)
ISO used: 100, I do not think I set this correctly, and it was probably not a good Idea to shoot at 100 ISO under the cloud cover I had at the time, 200 or 400 would have likely been better.
Exposure compensation: Unused.
Focal length: 47mm, I was probably zoomed in a bit, which altered the focal length to this state.
Principles Of Success, Looking up in the dictionary, we find the literal meaning of success as; “the fact of getting or achieving wealth, respect, or fame.”

How do you represent positive abstract principles or forces? There are fairly established symbols for justice, freedom and human rights, equality and so on. However it can be difficult to be innovative though so far as freedom is concerned various representations involving light, candles, barbed wire, barbed wire transforming into birds etc are utilised.
‘As free as a bird’ is sometimes used as a metaphor for freedom. Birds in the wild may not feel particularly ‘free’ but their natural flight enables them to do many things that humans cannot, and before the era of air travel they were the only ones able to go in the direction they wanted through the air in a way humans could not. Bird flight thus became a symbol of human freedom.
This piece is based on that symbolism. And while cliffs are not especially dangerous for birds, and indeed for some species represent a nesting and hatching site, they are potentially calamitous for humans. Extending the metaphor, for humans there are always risks to freedom, often from the state either being active (in curtailing rights) or passive (not protecting the citizen from detrimental forces).
Protecting freedom takes individual work but it is also a collective effort which is why two birds are shown in this piece rather than one. Who first said “The price of freedom is eternal vigilance” is open to debate though in 1790 Irish orator and politician John Philpott Curran said “The condition upon which God hath given liberty to man is eternal vigilance.”
Co Tyrone bog pine. Oiled and finished with water based varnish and two small metallic birds. Inscribed with “freedom” in acrylic paint on the back. Maximum dimensions: height 37 cm, width 22 cm. While the colour of wood carvings may not reflect 'actual' colours, anyone who has been to Slieve League in Donegal will know the colour of the cliffs here.

I love voyaging forth into nature to contemplate poetry, physics, the golden ratio, and the Tao te Ching! What's your favorite epic poetry reflecting epic landscapes? I recently finished a book titled Epic Poetry for Epic Landscape Photographers:
www.facebook.com/Epic-Poetry-for-Epic-Landscape-Photograp...
Did you know that John Muir, Thoreau, and Emerson all loved epic poetry and poets including Shakespeare, Milton, Homer, and Robert Burns?
I recently finished my fourth book on Light Time Dimension Theory, much of which was inspired by an autumn trip to Zion!
www.facebook.com/lightimedimensiontheory/
Via its simple principle of a fourth expanding dimension, LTD Theory provides a unifying, foundational *physical* model underlying relativity, quantum mechanics, time and all its arrows and asymmetries, and the second law of thermodynamics. The detailed diagrams demonstrate that the great mysteries of quantum mechanical nonlocality, entanglement, and probability naturally arise from the very same principle that fosters relativity alongside light's constant velocity, the equivalence of mass and energy, and time dilation.
