This document is a program and invitation for a memorial event for Hannah Senesh, held on Thursday, May 27, 1965, at the Roman Theater in Caesarea, Israel. The event featured the participation of Golda Meir, who was the Foreign Minister at the time.
The program details the event as a production involving friends who knew Hannah, narrators, a choir, and light pictures. The handwritten names in the upper right, "Golda" and "Katherine Senesh", refer to Golda Meir and Catherine Senesh, Hannah's mother.
Hannah Senesh (or Szenes) was a Hungarian-born poet, playwright, and a World War II resistance operative who became a national heroine in Israel.
Her Life and Legacy -Early Life and Zionism: Born into an assimilated Jewish family in Budapest in 1921, she experienced growing antisemitism that led her to embrace Zionism and emigrate to Mandatory Palestine in 1939. She settled in Kibbutz Sdot Yam near Caesarea and became known for her writing, including her famous poem "A Walk to Caesarea" (Eli, Eli).
Wartime Mission: In 1943, driven by a desire to fight the Nazis and help her fellow Jews, she volunteered for a dangerous, clandestine mission with the British Special Operations Executive (SOE). In March 1944, she and other Jewish volunteers from Palestine were parachuted into Yugoslavia.
Capture and Execution: She crossed into Hungary in June 1944 but was captured almost immediately by Hungarian authorities. She was imprisoned and subjected to brutal torture, but she refused to reveal any details of her mission or her comrades, even after her mother was arrested and threatened. She was tried for treason and, refusing a last-minute offer of clemency, was executed by firing squad on November 7, 1944, at the age of 23.
National Heroine: After the war, her remains were brought to Israel in 1950 and buried on Mount Herzl, the national cemetery in Jerusalem. Her diaries and poetry were published by her mother and became a cornerstone of her legacy, inspiring generations of Israelis.

Golda Meir was a pivotal figure in Israeli history, serving as Israel's fourth Prime Minister from 1969 to 1974, the only woman to hold the position. Often nicknamed the "Iron Lady" of Israeli politics, she was known for her strong will and determination.
Early Life and Path to Leadership:
Origins: Born Golda Mabovitch in Kyiv, Ukraine, in 1898, her family immigrated to Milwaukee, Wisconsin, in 1906 to escape anti-Semitic violence. Memories of this early fear influenced her lifelong commitment to a secure Jewish state.
Zionist Activism: In the U.S., she became a passionate advocate for Labor Zionism and immigrated to Mandatory Palestine with her husband in 1921, where they joined a kibbutz.
Political Ascent: Rising through the ranks of the Histadrut (General Federation of Labour), she became a key negotiator for the Jewish Agency during the British Mandate. She was one of only two women to sign Israel's Declaration of Independence on May 14, 1948.
Key Government Roles:
Minister of Labour (1949–1956): Considered one of her most successful roles, she oversaw major housing and road construction projects and the integration of mass immigration to the new state.
Foreign Minister (1956–1966): She Hebraized her name to Meir and focused on building diplomatic support by establishing aid programs with new African nations.
Prime Minister (1969–1974): She assumed the premiership after the sudden death of Levi Eshkol. Her tenure was marked by the 1972 Munich Massacre, where she ordered retaliation against those responsible, and the 1973 Yom Kippur War.
Legacy and Controversy:
While she was widely admired for her contributions to Israel's founding, her premiership faced severe criticism following the Yom Kippur War, where Israel was caught off guard by a surprise attack from Egypt and Syria. Though an inquiry cleared her of direct responsibility, public anger led to her resignation in 1974. She died of lymphoma in 1978 and remains a complex figure in Israeli history.

Prompted on World Parrot Day, and with the extraordinary co-operative effort of the photographer, here we have a rare find.
This kākāpō chick was in the able care of hands from the Kākāpō Recovery Program . The photographer was the enthralled witness to this scene.
Please don't ask for more details as refusal may offend…or I might have to cook my own dinner.

A team prepares NASA’s Psyche spacecraft for launch inside the Astrotech Space Operations Facility near the agency’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida on Dec. 8, 2022. Psyche will launch atop a SpaceX Falcon Heavy rocket from Launch Complex 39A at Kennedy. Launch is targeted for no earlier than Oct. 10, 2023. The spacecraft will use solar-electric propulsion to travel approximately 1.5 billion miles to rendezvous with its namesake asteroid in 2026. The Psyche mission is led by Arizona State University. NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory, which is managed for the agency by Caltech in Pasadena, California, is responsible for the mission’s overall management, system engineering, integration and testing, and mission operations. Maxar Technologies in Palo Alto, California, provided the high-power solar electric propulsion spacecraft chassis. NASA’s Launch Services Program (LSP), based at Kennedy, is managing the launch.

Tigger helping me with programming my color library manger program. ("Pair programming" is a methodology where two programmers use one computer to write programs. It's as odious as it sounds and is just one of the silly, trendy things that managers love to do to show how much they "get" programmers.)
Plainfield HS in Connecticut is the latest recipient of a fleet of cameras courtesy of The FPP (and all the folks who have donated to our ongoing program)!
Plainfield teacher Lydia Mackela writes:
"I would really like to take the time to thank you and all of your volunteers SO MUCH for the amazing shipment of cameras. Although we may not be able to start using them this year because of really harsh budget cuts, they will be in full affect next year as we are bringing a darkroom to the school! I graduated from Plainfield High School in 2010 and now I am an educator here and I know how much this means to the kids – especially those who barely have anything special at home. I have the goal of bringing back the positivity and life to this department and with your help its possible! I hope to work with you guys more in the future! Sincerely though, THANK-YOU THANK-YOU THANK-YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
Kids with cameras! A GREAT reason to donate to The FPP!

I didn't like it.
This camera acts like a P&S; manipulating the shutter and aperture requires thinking and some extra pushing of stuff.
If you shoot a lot of over and under exposures, it's difficult to tell where you are as all the meter does is blink.
If you got one you know what I mean.
I suppose I could get used to it, but why not just get an A1?
Aerothermodynamic Structural Vehicle 1 (ASV-1), part of the Aerothermodynamic/Elastic Structural Systems Environmental Tests (ASSET) Program, is seen being prepared for its September 18, 1963 launch from Launch Complex 17B, Cape Canaveral Air Force Station.
I really like the following article, at the White Eagle Aerospace website, written by J. Terry White. Maybe that's why they disabled/blocked the ability to copy/paste from it:
"…the first ASSET flight test vehicle (ASV-1) successfully flew 1,600 nm down the Eastern Test Range (ETR) following launch from Cape Canaveral, Florida. Boosted atop a Thor launch vehicle, the hypersonic glider reached a maximum velocity of 10,900 mph (Mach 12).
The Aerothermodynamic/Elastic Structural Systems Environmental Tests (ASSET) Program was a United States Air Force flight research effort aimed at exploring hypersonic lifting entry. Programmatic objectives included evaluation of hypersonic lifting vehicle (1) reentry aerodynamic and aerothermodynamic phenomena (2) structural design concepts, and (3) panel flutter characteristics and body flap oscillatory pressures.
The basic ASSET vehicle configuration was a 70-deg delta planform wing with highly-radiused leading edges. The windward surface of this wing was flat and had a 10-deg break in slope roughly two-thirds of the way back from the nose. A blunted cone-cylinder combination was raked into the leeward surface of the wing to form the fuselage of the vehicle. The aft portion of the vehicle was terminated with a flat base region.
There were two (2) types of ASSET flight vehicles. The Aerothermoelastic Vehicle (AEV) variant was flown to investigate windward panel flutter characteristics and body flap oscillatory pressures. A pair of these vehicles were flown. Each weighed AEV weighed 1,225 Ibs and was launched into a suborbital flight path by a Douglas Thor booster.
The Aerothermodynamic Structural Vehicle (ASV) variant was flown to determine external airframe surface temperature, heat flux and pressure distributions in hypersonic flight. These data were used to evaluate materials and structural concepts under reentry conditions. A quartet of these vehicles were flight tested. Each ASV weighed 1,130 Ibs and was boosted by a Thor-Delta launch vehicle.
ASSET vehicles were boosted to altitudes between 168 KFT and 225 KFT depending on mission type. AEV entry insertion velocity was roughly 13,000 ft/sec while that for ASV shots varied between 16,000 and 19,500 ft/sec. ASSET performed hypersonic flight maneuvers via a combination of aerodynamic and propulsive controls. The windward-mounted body flap was the lone aerodynamic control surface while a set of 3-axis attitude control thrusters were located in the vehicle's base region.
The first flight of the ASSET Program (ASV-1) took place on Wednesday, 18 September 1963. ASV-1 lift-off occurred at 09:39 UTC from Cape Canaveral's LC-17B. Due to booster availability issues, a Thor DSV-2F launch vehicle was used for this mission rather than the higher energy Thor-Delta DSV-2G. Insertion altitude and velocity were 203,200 ft and 16,125 ft/sec, respectively. The ASV-1 mission was highly successful with the exception that the vehicle was lost when it sunk in the South Atlantic during recovery operations.
ASV-1 represented the first time in aerospace history that a lifting vehicle configuration had successfully flown a double-digit Mach number reentry trajectory. Five (5) more ASSET vehicles would fly before completion of the flight research program. The sixth and last mission occurred on Tuesday, 23 February 1965.
The ASSET Program garnered a wealth of first-ever hypersonic vehicle aerodynamic, aerothermodynamic, aerothermoelastic and flight controls data. This priceless information and the valuable experience gained during ASSET contributed significantly to the design and flight testing of the PRIME SV-5D and Space Shuttle Orbiter.
Strangely, only one of the ASSET flight test articles was ever recovered successfully. In particular, ASV-3 was recovered following its 1,800 nm suborbital flight down the Eastern Test Range on Wednesday, 22 July 1964. The recovered airframe is currently on display at the National Museum of the United States Air Force in Dayton, Ohio."

I'm going to leave the following for a while longer, because I'm pretty damned torqued:
I HAD MY USUAL INFORMATIVE, VALUE-ADDED DESCRIPTION HERE - ABOVE, WHICH I HAD TO YET AGAIN, PAINSTAKINGLY FINAGLE - WITH A LINK TO ANOTHER PERTINENT & INFORMATIVE WEBSITE (BELOW).
HOWEVER, SINCE THE PART-TIME “DEVELOPERS”/IT SUPPORT BUFFOONS AT FLUCKR CONTINUE TO BE COMPOSED OF STONED (LIKE “MANAGEMENT”), INCOMPETENT & LACKADAISICAL MORONS, AND IT WENT "POOF".
AND NOW THERE'S THE UTTERLY PATHETIC MOBILE UPDATE. OBVIOUSLY NOT MEANT FOR IPHONES...A TOTAL, COMPLETE, UNMITIGATED FLUCKING DUMPSTER FIRE. WHAT THE FLUCK ARE YOU FLUCKING STUPID FLUCKR FLUCKSTICKS DOING?!?!?!?!
GET YOUR FLUCKING SNOT/RUNNY-NOSED HEADS OUT OF YOUR COLLECTIVE (DUMB) ASSES!!!!!!!!!!
FLUCKR HAS BEEN CONSISTENTLY MEDIOCRE - THE MOBILE APP ESPECIALLY - FOR AWHILE, BUT AGAIN, CONSISTENTLY AT LEAST. HOWEVER, NOW YOU FLUCKING FLUCKR ASS-CLOWNS HAVE MANAGED TO MAKE IT ABSOLUTELY ABYSMAL!!!!!
AND I'M PAYING FOR THIS?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!
UN-FLUCKING-BELIEVABLE!!!!!!!!!!
