An exciting new film series designed to engage young people in the exploration of their faith has been launched by Scripture Union. NUA Film Series encourages questions, acknowledges doubt and offers a new perspective on Christian faith. It provides young people, and viewers of all ages, with the opportunity to discuss their worldview and wrestle with the things that don’t seem to make sense.
NUA was commissioned by Scripture Union Ireland and was launched in Gonzaga College, Ranelagh. Produced and presented by Jonny Somerville, directed by Greg Fromholz and filmed by Tiny Ark, the result is an outstanding resource with stunning visuals and really engaging content.
Over the series of eight short films, NUA addresses many of the big questions including ‘Jesus: Fact or Fiction?’, ‘How Can You Say That God is Good?’ and ‘Has the Church Caused More Harm Than Good?’ The first episode, ‘How Did We Get Here?’ was shown at the launch and while NUA doesn’t presume to give the answers, it provides a broad base for discussion and gives voice to the many questions people have when considering events like Creation and the Big Bang.
Each film lasts about 15 minutes and is intended to be watched over time in an educational setting, youth group, college campus or with friends. NUA was written, reviewed and edited by more than 30 trusted critics including a small inter–church theological group, chaplains and RE teachers, clergy, youth workers, parents and actual young people.
Introducing NUA, Jonny Somerville said it was not one man’s theology. He, Greg Fromholz (who apart from directing films is also Dublin & Glendalough’s Young Adults Officer) and Scott Evans (Church of Ireland Chaplain at UCD) wrote the original scripts. These were then sent to the ecumenical panel where they were “ripped to shreds and put back together again”. “I believe NUA is acceptable to all denominations,” he said.
A panel of reviewers gave their opinions on the applications of NUA on the night. Auxiliary Bishop of Dublin, Bishop Eamonn Walsh, suggested that in a parish context it could be used for confirmation groups and youth groups as well as Advent and Lent discussion groups. “NUA says it’s ok to be a Christian and be full of thoughts. This gets across that God’s spirit is in everyone,” he commented.
Anna Maloney, Post Primary Advisor with the Dublin Archdiocese, said she was delighted that they could now offer a resource to schools. As a teacher herself, she said: “It was clear how you would go about teaching it in a classroom setting. We’re looking for something that isn’t naff and will engage young people… This is so new and fresh. Students will buy into it,” she said.
Ken Rue of Dublin & Glendalough’s Council for Mission and Associate Vicar of Wicklow and Killiskey Parishes, said that from a Church of Ireland context NUA would be great for youth clubs but said adults would be equally engaged. He praised the quality and said he particularly liked the built in pauses for discussion.
Peter Rigney of Alpha Ireland said there were lots of similarities between Alpha Youth and NUA and the film series would be a great way to follow up on an Alpha course. He said Jonny had worked with Alpha Youth in schools and began to understand the needs of young people in an Irish context.
Greg Fromholz paid tribute to the almost 200 people who collaborated in making the series. “NUA is not just one person talking. It is constantly changing and engaging. It takes us on a journey. We went to different locations to shoot NUA – Israel and Palestine to walk in the steps of Jesus, New York because it is a special place and we showed off our own country. But it is a journey,” he commented.
General Director of Scripture Union, Jim Donnan, thanked everyone who had contributed financially to the making of NUA and all who were involved in making the series a reality. “NUA allows young people to be open, to express their questions about faith. We want to direct them towards the one who gives the answers to all their questions. It is an excellent resource which is tailor made for RE teachers, chaplains, leaders and for anyone who wants to engage young people in faith. Take this resource and use it with young people. Give young people the chance to encounter Jesus,” he said.
The NUA resources comprise a USB – with eight episodes, nine training videos, the series trailer, eight Irish street interviews and a media pack; the NUA Guide which includes lesson plans, summaries and suggestions for engagement activities; and the NUA Journal for viewers to write notes and record their faith journey. They can all be ordered on the NUA website: www.nuafilmseries.ie

The High Lakes Trail is one of the nicest trails I know of for a trail run, The surface is ideal; it is mostly flat but also has some nice hills, and the scenery is incredible. 5000 feet elevation. Today we saw a coyote. One time I ran right into a huge bear on the trail - who looked at me puzzled, and then ran away like a baby bunny rabbit.

Lost in the chaos of the Second World War were some of the finest works of Philippine art borne of the turn of the century. Featuring the homey, prewar idylls of a simple era, these lavish works were most often burned or stolen during the pillage that ensued as the once peaceful towns and cities of the Philippines were invaded.
Among the most famous and recognized works of the time were the brilliant, picturesque creations of Isidro Ancheta. The classical realist, with his palette knife and brush, has immortalized the lush, and stunning grandeur of the prewar Philippines in numerous works. Having had these works adorn numerous households and establishments, there was no question of the iconic artist’s popularity — however, after the horrors of the Second World War, very few of these said pieces had survived.
This stunning set of oil works by the renowned classical maestro are among his few surviving works. Remnants of a lost era, these majestic renditions of the beauty of the bucolic serve as relics to remind us of what once was.

This photograph was taken by Nicholson Museum curator William J Woodhouse in Greece between 1890 and 1935.
Can you help us catalogue the Woodhouse photographic archive? Contribute by adding tags and answering the following questions in the comments below:
•What do you see? Write a brief description for this image.
•Where was this photograph taken?
•Can you find the geo co-ordinates (latitude and longitude) of this exact place? Let us know by linking to the google maps or add the co-ordinates in your comment.
•Do you know what year this photograph was taken?
About the archive:
The Nicholson Museum holds over 1800 glass-plate negatives taken by Woodhouse while in Greece in 1890s and early 1900s. A small portion of the archive also includes photographs of his family in the Blue Mountains, NSW, Australia. The collection documents important archaeological sites, significant landscapes of the Greek mainland, contemporary buildings and the people he met along the way. His archive is a rich resource capturing many sites pre-archaeological excavation and before modern industrial development. Some of the photographs were published by Woodhouse in his book 'Aetolia: its geography, topography, and antiquities' published in 1897. His desire to capture Greece on 'film', was simply put in his introduction: "History only attains its full value by borrowing actuality from geography and topography". The archive shows his love not only for the sites but also for the people and spirit of Greece.
About the project:
We are asking you to contribute to our documentation of this collection and assist us with the identification of the hundreds of different monuments and places in Greece. The title of each photograph will include the museum registration number (NM2007.##.##) and may already include a place name where museum staff or Woodhouse himself have titled the image.
All of our flikr contributors will be acknowledged when the collection is published through our online collections at the completion of the project.
There are rules/guidance for the layout of signage, barriers, cones (etc) for roadworks.
This layout is a questionable with such a large gap between the diagonal closure and the yellow barriers, with just a single cone to prevent dozy drivers returning to the nearside lane too early.
The yellow barriers protects a 1 metre wide, by approx 500mm deep trench.
The exhibition features the artworks from an interdisciplinary and culturally diverse group of architects/artists/designers investigating current and historical dilemmas facing new immigrants and political/religious refugees as well as their influences on local and global culture in everyday life and their complex relationship to artistic and cultural production. Each body of work represents a unique perception according to one’s individual expertise, experience, vision and culture identity.
Last night, my wife and I went to see "the U.S. vs. John Lennon" at the Michigan Theater in Ann Arbor. Unexpectedly, we arrived to find that John Sinclair had agreed to speak after the film and answer questions. Being unprepared, I took a photo, but it is not very good. The un-photoshopped version is here:
www.flickr.com/photos/whiteoakart/329173016/
If you are unfamiliar with Sinclair, here is a blurb from Wikipedia:
"John Sinclair (born October 2, 1941 in Flint, Michigan), was a Detroit poet, one-time manager of the band MC5, and leader of the White Panther Party from November 1968 to July 1969. He was jailed in 1969 after selling two joints of marijuana to undercover narcotics officers. His case received international attention when John Lennon performed at a benefit concert on his behalf in 1971" (in Ann Arbor, MI).
He unintentionally became a pivotal figure in the anti-war movement and cemented John Lennon's status as a subversive and threat to american security.

because Lennon's FBI files have finally been released.
In January 2014, three Australians won the opportunity to travel to a cattle and sheep farm in Tasmania to have their questions answered as part of the Target 100 sustainable farming initiative.
It became the subject of a three-part documentary, The Journey of a Bettertarian. The documentary was funded by Target 100 as an initiative by Australian cattle and sheep farmers to deliver more sustainable farming by 2020.
This 3-minute video takes the viewer on a trip to Bangor organised by chef TV personality Darren Robertson and sustainable food advocate Rebecca Sullivan. They are joined by three inquisitive everyday Australians - Joanna Baker, Brett MacLachlan and Rebecca Stokes - who won a competition to learn first-hand about how their beef and lamb is produced, and have their questions answered.
In this episode, we see the participants in the program enjoying a meal prepared at Bangor by Darren Robertson. All reflect on their time together and discuss sustainable farming practices. There is a general consensus to become betternarians - to become better informed about where our food comes from and that we should eat with understanding.

Life in Bihari Camp
Dhaka, Bangladesh
A young girl writes a poem where she asks a simple question -- one which no one can answer. She asks, “Who am I?” Her forefathers were born in India, they immigrated to Pakistan, she was born in Bangladesh. India has given up on them a long time back, Bangladesh will not accept them as the children of the land and Pakistan will not take them back. She says that she has many names 'Bihari', 'Maura', 'Muhajir', 'Non-Bangalee', 'Marwari', 'Urdu-speaker', 'Refugee', and 'Stranded Pakistani'. But she only wants one: human. This is the state of being of the 1.6 lakh camp-based Urdu-speaking community in Bangladesh. In Geneva camp now about 4 lac urdu speaking Indian & Pakistani peoples are living .
After the partition of India in 1947, faced with large-scale communal riots on both sides of the border, a few hundred thousand Muslims from Bihar, Kolkata, Uttar Pradesh, Maddhya Pradesh and as far away as Hyderabad came to the then East Pakistan. All India Muslim League Chief Muhammad Ali Jinnah promised them that Pakistan would be 'a safe haven for all Muslims'. As is typical of people migrating from a common locality, 'Biharis' lived in separate clusters from the Bangalis. Their communities were concentrated in areas in Mohammadpur, Mirpur, Khulna, Chittagong and Santahar.
the new generation who were born after the war and comprise the biggest chunk of camp-dwellers don't have any affiliations with either India or Pakistan. They were born in this country and identify themselves as Bangladeshis. Unfortunately the state is reluctant to accept them as such. It's a very complex issue because a lot of ambivalence from the majority population that is skeptical about these people's loyalty to the country they want to be citizens of. But the inhuman conditions they are living in and the subsequent effect it is bound to have on the society as a whole makes it imperative to resolve this painful issue.

The Ajuda National Palace, a neoclassical building from the first half of the 19th century, was built upon plans drawn by the architects Francisco José Fabri (1761-1817) and José da Costa e Silva (1741-1819). It became a royal residence on king Luís I (1861-1889) accession to the throne and it remained as such until the end of the Monarchy, in 1910.
From 1862, when the king married Maria Pia Princess of Savoy, onto the end of his reign, the ever-unfinished palace was brought into life. Its decorative interiors suffered great changes from the beginning. Joaquim Possidónio da Silva (1806-1896), the royal architect, was in charge of the works. He renewed the room’s distribution and decoration according to the 19th century modern standards, where comfort and hygiene were vital. New rooms were created: the winter garden, the Saxe and the Chinese rooms, a dining room for the family daily meals and bathrooms with all the recent amenities, such as cold and hot running water. For fifty years the palace was the stage to a whole lot of events: princes were born and christened – Carlos (1863-1908) and Afonso (1865-1920) –, the State Counsel gathered here, balls, banquets and court ceremonies took place.
In 1910, when the Republic was instated, the consequent exile of the royal family brought a closure period upon the palace. It opened to the public as a Museum since 1968. It still holds its decorative artworks in place in a lively and truthful to its origins display. On the ground floor, from the Music Room onwards, the private apartments can be found, while State Rooms occupy the upper floor. As a museum, it gathers important collections of decorative arts from the 18th and 19th centuries: gold and silver works, textiles, furniture and ceramics as well as paintings, sculptures and photographs. The most important State ceremonies held by the President of the Republic still take place here.

Sorry, but that quote makes me laugh every time I read it.
Happy National Shrimp Day!
What d'ya say we celebrate with a road trip to Bolivar for some truly fresh Gulf shrimp and some fresh air? It should be really fresh and clean right now, scrubbed by over 12" of rain in the last day or so. We're supposed to get another dose in the wee hours of the morning too, so bring a good warm jacket.
Question: What the heck is PONG supposed to be?
When you're playing it, it feels like the video game representation of some real-life sport. You're bouncing a ball back and forth with another player, which at first glance sounds a lot like like table tennis, AKA ping pong-- and that would seem to explain the name. And yet, PONG is two-dimensional and free of gravity. The ball goes in a straight line, at a fairly constant rate of travel. And you don't play ping pong by rotating a wheel. Come to think of it, it's not a darned thing like ping pong. So what the heck is it?
To answer this, we built this real-life Tabletop Pong game. You can read more about this project here.
