"Raised To Life"
Precious compassion that pours
From the wounds that have won our salvation
Sin was strong but the Savior is stronger
Come let us worship Him
Great was the debt that we owed
And how high was the price of our healing
Paid in full by the One who is worthy
Come let us worship Him
Raised to life with Christ the Savior
In His name a new creation
Now our song will rise
Adoring Christ the Lord
Death overcome by the Word
That was spoken before it was finished
Jesus Saves is our song everlasting
Come let us worship Him
Raised to life with Christ the Savior
In His name a new creation
Now our song will rise
Adoring Christ the Lord
Sin was strong
But Jesus is stronger
Our shame was great
But Jesus You're greater
[x6]
Jesus You're greater
Raised to life with Christ the Savior
In His name a new creation
Now our song will rise
Adoring Christ the Lord
[x2]
Sin was strong
But Jesus is stronger
Our shame was great
But Jesus You're greater

In the Garden of Unearthly Delights, part of the Adelaide Fringe Festival, the Fun Park sector had some fairly hair raising rides involving high speed and high G-force. I do like roller coasters but I kept both feet on the ground tonight and was rewarded with this image - actually taken from beyond the boundary fence. Exposure 0.8 sec at ƒ5.6 hand held (leaning against a tree).

STILL waiting for a few pieces for the Aufklarer...2 tan clips, 2 tan grilles, 2 red brown tiles, and done!
I have the chassis for the Hetzer done. Waiting for the curved pieces for the hull to finish that one off as well. :) As with most of my tanks, PA helped me to learn how to build them modular. I can remove the upper hulls easily in one piece and swap them with other tanks if wanted. Makes it soooo much easier to update or change out pieces. Thanks again PA.

On 25 November 2020, Mexican singer and actress Flor Silvestre (1930-2020) passed away. She was one of the most prominent and successful performers of Mexican and Latin American music and was a star of classic Mexican films. Famous for her melodious voice and unique singing style, she was nicknamed "La Sentimental" (The Sentimental One) and "La Voz Que Acaricia" (The Voice That Caresses). Her more than 70-year career included stage productions, radio programs, records, films, television programs, comics, and rodeo shows.
Flor Silvestre was born Guillermina Jiménez Chabolla in 1930 in Salamanca, Guanajuato, Mexico. She was the third child and second daughter of Jesús Jiménez Cervantes, a butcher, and María de Jesús Chabolla Peña. Her sisters Enriqueta and María de la Luz also became singers. Guillermina was raised in Salamanca and began singing at an early age. Her parents, who were also fond of singing, encouraged her to sing. She loved the mariachi music of famous Mexican singers Jorge Negrete and Lucha Reyes, and also sang songs that belonged to the pasodoble, tango, and bolero genres, which were popular in Mexico in the late 1930s. Her family moved to Mexico City and there she began her singing career. In 1943, when she was 13 years old, she debuted at the Teatro del Pueblo. Her next performance at the Teatro del Pueblo was in the play 'La soldadera' (The female soldier), directed by López Santillán. She played a girl who comes out of a railway wagon and sings 'La soldadera', a song written for her by José de Jesús Morales. The play was also broadcast by Mexico's national radio station, XEFO, and 'La soldadera' became the first song she performed on radio. XEFO announcer Arturo Blancas chose the title of Dolores del Río's film Flor Silvestre (Emilio Fernández, 1943), as the young singer's new stage name, so Guillermina Jiménez became Flor Silvestre, which means 'wild flower'. In 1945, she was announced as the "Alma de la Canción Ranchera" (Soul of the Ranchera Song), and in 1950, the year in which she emerged as a radio star, she was proclaimed the "Reina de la Canción Mexicana" (Queen of Mexican Song). In February 1950, she was a part of the "numerous, hybrid, but useful cast" of '¡A los toros!', a revue about bullfighting staged at the Teatro Tívoli. It was written and presented by announcer Paco Malgesto, who would become her second husband. In the revue, she sang Mexican musical numbers associated with bullfights. Also in 1950, she signed a contract with Columbia Records and recorded her first hits, which include 'Imposible olvidarte', 'Que Dios te perdone', and 'Pobre corazón'. In 1957, she began recording for Musart Records and became one of the label's exclusive artists with numerous best-selling singles, such as 'Cielo rojo', 'Renunciación', and 'Gracias'. Many of her hits charted on Cashbox Mexico's Best Sellers and Record World Latin American Single Hit Parade. She also participated in her husband Antonio Aguilar's musical rodeo shows.
Flor Silvestre made her film debut in 1949 singing in Te besaré en la boca/I will kiss you on the mouth (Fernando Cortés, 1950). In 1950, Flor signed a five-film contract with Gregorio Walerstein, a leading film producer known as "the Tsar of Mexican films" She made her acting debut in his production Primero soy mexicano/First I am Mexican (1950), co-starring Joaquín Pardavé (who also wrote and directed the film) and Luis Aguilar and featuring Francisco "Charro" Avitia. She was reunited with Luis Aguilar and Francisco Avitia in the film El tigre enmascarado/The masked tiger (Zacarías Gómez Urquiza, 1951). She then appeared as the leading lady of actor Dagoberto Rodríguez in a film trilogy, El lobo solitario/The lonely wolf (Vicente Oroná, 1952), La justicia del lobo/Wolf justice (Vicente Oroná, 1952), and Vuelve el lobo/The wolf returns (Vicente Oroná, 1952). Between 1950 and 1990, she appeared in more than seventy films. Beautiful and statuesque, she became one of the leading stars of the 'golden age' of the Mexican film industry. In 1955, she appeared in her first color film, La doncella de piedra/The stone maiden (Miguel M. Delgado, 1956), one of the first Mexican CinemaScope productions. An adaptation of Rómulo Gallegos' novel 'Sobre la misma tierra', the film features Flor Silvestre in the role of Cantaralia Barroso, the mother of the novel's protagonist, Remota Montiel (played by Elsa Aguirre). Silvestre played opposite famous comedians, such as Cantinflas in the Eastmancolor comedy El bolero de Raquel/Raquel's Shoeshiner (Miguel M. Delgado, 1957). She received for the first time top billing in Pueblo en Armas/People in arms (Miguel Contreras Torres, 1959) and its sequel ¡Viva la soldadera!/Long live the female soldiers!(Miguel Contreras Torres, 1960). Director Ismael Rodríguez gave her important roles in the Mexican Revolution epic La cucaracha/The Soldiers of Pancho Villa (Ismael Rodríguez, 1959) opposite María Félix and Dolores del Río, and Ánimas Trujano/The Important Man (Ismael Rodríguez, 1962) with Toshiro Mifune, which was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film and won a Golden Globe. In 1960, she starred opposite the popular comedy duo Viruta and Capulina in Dos locos en escena/Two Crazy Ones on the Scene (Agustín P. Delgado, 1960).
In 1973, Flor Silvestre played one of Pancho Villa's lovers in La muerte de Pancho Villa (Mario Hernández, 1973), and played Felipe Carrillo Puerto's wife, Isabel Palma, in Peregrina (Mario Hernández, 1974). She sang 'La palma' in Simón Blanco (Mario Hernández, 1975) and played the female leads in Don Herculano enamorado/Don Herculano in love (Mario Hernández, 1975), El moro de cumpas/The Moor of Cumpas (Mario Hernández, 1977), and Mi caballo el cantador/My horse the singer (Mario Hernández, 1979). She made her final film, Triste recuerdo/Sad memory (Mario Hernández, 1990). She was also the star of the comic book 'La Llanera Vengadora'. In 2013, the Association of Mexican Cinema Journalists honored her with the Special Silver Goddess Award. In 2015, her documentary 'Flor Silvestre: su destino fue querer' premiered at the Guadalajara International Film Festival. The 24-minute documentary features interviews with Flor Silvestre, who recounts her life and career; her five children, Dalia, Francisco, Marcela, Antonio, and Pepe; and singers Angélica María and Guadalupe Pineda. Flor Silvestre married her first husband, Andrés Nieto, in the 1940s. She gave birth to her first child, singer and dancer Dalia Inés Nieto, when she was 16 years old. Around 1953, Flor Silvestre married radio announcer and bullfighting chronicler Francisco Rubiales Calvo "Paco Malgesto", who would later become a famous presenter and pioneer of Mexican television. They had two children, translator Francisco Rubiales and singer and actress Marcela Rubiales. They lived in a house in Mexico City's Lindavista neighborhood. The couple separated and began divorce proceedings in 1958. Flor Silvestre's third and last husband was singer and actor Antonio Aguilar, who died in 2007. He was the love of her life. Their relationship began when they made the film El rayo de Sinaloa in 1957. They married in 1959 (or 1960, according to some sources) and had two sons who also became singers and actors, Antonio "Toño" Aguilar and José "Pepe" Aguilar. Aguilar built her a spacious home and ranch, El Soyate, northeast of Tayahua, Zacatecas. Flor Silvestre died on 25 November 2020 at her home in Villanueva, Zacatecas. She was 90.

I was looking forward to going down to the Campo Viejo Streets of Spain and visiting this place, purely because I thought it would be full of energy and colour and it was. It was also full of a lot of people…lol
Great place to hang out if you got nothing to do and highly recommend it, although if you are looking to take pictures, I would recommend you go on a week day when it is not busy.
I bought the saturation down a little and just increased the shadows a bit so I could see the Bokeh lights a bit more. And just used the dodge tool to go over the sign a bit more in lightrooms.

Look, I know we're only a few episodes in at this point, but I think G-Tekketsu has already eased the pain of G-Reco pretty meaningfully... but then again I thought AGE was going well until the second story arc, so I'm keeping my enthusiasm well-curbed.
Anyway, I just saw Episode 6 tonight and completely fell in love with the Isaribi, so this. For MFZ:IO purposes she'll have to be a Capitol Ship on account of her big honkin' tail-end hanging well over the size limit for frigates.
WEEK 40 – Hdo WM, Post-Remodel, Set IV
From that same vantage point, here’s a view turned more to the right, allowing us a good overview of the open front area of the grocery department. Notice anything different between the previous pic and this one? If any of you noticed the lighting… good eye, you’re exactly right! When the remodel was underway, new lights were installed above produce, replacing the previous spotlight fixtures… and they were placed quite low. As in, blocking-all-the-department-signage low. That seemed odd, but I assume the idea was simply the lower the light placement, the better illumination of the produce. However, someone must have either given up on that idea or realized that the sign blockage was not a good look, because the lights were raised up sometime not long prior to the date that this photo was taken on in late January 2018 (if I remember correctly, that is).

This beautiful photograph, taken by Joe Rosenthal, was one of the most significant (and most replicated) pieces of imagery of the 20th Century.
It was my desire to bring more life out of this photo by adding some color.
I hope it does no injustice.

"Alzate le vele!". Sono novant'anni che questo ordine viene ripetuto: l'Amerigo Vespucci, regina italiana dei mari e spesso ritenuta la nave più bella del mondo, è stata varata il 22 febbraio 1931. Ha preso forma in un'epoca di acciaio, con il gasolio che stava sostituendo il carbone, sfoggiando un'eleganza di legno e tela antica già allora. Doveva essere "la tradizione": la scuola dove trasformare le persone in marinai, educandoli a vivere seguendo il moto delle onde e il soffio del vento, a mettere da parte l'io per animare la collettiva sincronia dell'equipaggio. Da allora la Vespucci non si è mai fermata, attraversando i continenti per raccontare una poesia fuori dal tempo, materializzando i sogni di galeoni pirati e arrembaggi spericolati, che da Emilio Salgari a Johnny Deep spingono a cercare l'isola che non c'è.
"Raise your sails!". For ninety years this order has been repeated: the Amerigo Vespucci, Italian queen of the seas and often considered the most beautiful ship in the world, was launched on February 22, 1931. It took shape in an era of steel, with diesel replacing coal, sporting an elegance of wood and antique canvas even then. It was supposed to be "tradition": the school where people could be transformed into sailors, educating them to live following the motion of the waves and the breath of the wind, to set aside the self to animate the collective synchronicity of the crew. Since then Vespucci has never stopped, crossing the continents to tell a poem out of time, materializing the dreams of pirate galleons and reckless surrenders, which from Emilio Salgari to Johnny Deep push to look for the island that is not there.
London Transport ex-GWR 5700 Class pannier L.90 (BR 7760) waiting for overhaul at Eastleigh (BR/SR) works, in summer 1965.
L90 was the second LT Pannier with this number, as the first (BR 7711) had been scrapped in 1961.
L90 hauled the very last revenue-earning LT steam service, on June 4, 1971, but failed during the trip, and was rescued by a battery loco..
The loco was sold to 7029 Clun Castle Ltd. in 1971, and preserved, and for a time was certified for mainline operation. Currently (2015) the loco is out of service, and believed to be 'for sale', to raise funds for the restoration of 7029..
Eastleigh works is still in operation today, for maintenance of EMUs, and scrapping of obsolete stock..

The Oriental dwarf kingfisher (Ceyx erithaca), also known as the black-backed kingfisher or three-toed kingfisher, is a species of bird in the family Alcedinidae.
This is a small, red and yellow kingfisher, averaging 13 cm (5.1 in) in length, yellow underparts with glowing bluish-black upperparts. A widespread resident of lowland forest, it is endemic across much of the Indian subcontinent and Southeast Asia. It is found in Bangladesh, Bhutan, Brunei, Cambodia, India, Indonesia, Laos, Malaysia, Myanmar, Singapore, Sri Lanka, and Thailand.
The preferred habitat is small streams in densely shaded forests. In the Konkan region of southwest India, it begins to breed with the onset of the southwest monsoon in June. The nest is a horizontal tunnel up to a metre in length. The clutch of four or five eggs hatches in 17 days with both the male and female incubating. The birds fledge after 20 days and a second brood may be raised if the first fails. The young are fed with geckos, skinks, crabs, snails, frogs, crickets, and dragonflies. The rufous-backed kingfisher is sometimes considered a subspecies.
These ramirezi were born and raised in my aquarium.
From their very first days of free swimming to now, I've watched them grow, explore, and even recognize me.
It's a simple everyday scence, but for me it represents all the care, patience, and quiet joy behind keeping and breeding these little ones.
First Minister Nicola Sturgeon has today seen some of the innovative work being carried out to raise attainment in Scotland’s schools.
The First Minister visited Levenvale Primary School in West Dunbartonshire to see how the school has used its share of the Pupil Equity Fund (PEF). £120 million has been committed to the fund for schools across Scotland in this year’s draft budget.
So raise your glass if you are wrong
In all the right ways, all my underdogs
We will never be, never be anything but loud
And nitty-gritty, dirty, little freaks
Won't you come on and, come on and raise your glass?
Just come on and, come on and raise your glass...

Adults constantly raise the bar on smart children, precisely because they're able to handle it. The children get overwhelmed by the tasks in front of them and gradually lose the sort of openness and sense of accomplishment they innately have. When they're treated like that, children start to crawl inside a shell and keep everything inside. It takes a lot of time and effort to get them to open up again. Kids' hearts are malleable, but once they gel it's hard to get them back the way they were.

Anne Crawford (1920-1956) was a beautiful, sadly short-lived British leading lady with a gentle, good-humoured personality. From 1938 through 1954 she starred in 24 films.
Anne Crawford was born in 1920 in Haifa, Palestine (now Israel) as Imelda Anne Crawford. She was the child of an English mother and a Scottish father, who worked as a paymaster for the Palestine Railway. The family returned to Britain when she was 7 years old. Raised in Edinburgh, she went to school at St. Margrets convent in Marchmont. Afterward, she studied drama in Edinburgh and at the Royal Academy of Dramatic Arts (RADA) in London. Her professional career started at a repertory theatre in Manchester where she soon was playing juvenile leads. She changed her name from Imelda to Anne. She had a tiny role in Prison Without Bars (Brian Desmond Hurst, 1938) with Corinne Luchaire and Edna Best, and a better role in They Flew Alone (Herbert Wilcox, 1942) starring Anna Neagle. It was the smash hit Millions Like Us (Frank Launder, Sydney Gilliat, 1943) that crystalised her star persona: posh, selfish but basically a good sort. During her career, there were a few attempts to get away from this template, notably her poor mill worker in Master of Banksdam. During the war, she also appeared in such women's pictures as Two Thousand Women (Frank Launder, 1944) with Phyllis Calvert and Flora Robson, and They Were Sisters (Arthur Crabtree, 1945) with James Mason.
After the war, Anne Crawford became known for the wild Gainsborough melodrama Caravan (Arthur Crabtree, 1946) starring Stewart Granger and Jean Kent, and the classic horror film Daughter of Darkness (Lance Comfort, 1948). In his Guide to British Cinema, Geoff Mayer writes, "Daughter of Darkness, with a budget of two hundred thousand pounds and three weeks of location shooting in Cornwall, was not a financial success and represented a setback to Comfort's career, which saw him relegated to low-budget films in the 1950s and 1960s. Yet the film's mixture of gothic and horror establishes it as one of the most startling British films of the 1940s." In 1953 she starred as Morgan Le Fay in Knights of the Round Table (Richard Thorpe, 1953), with Robert Taylor and Ava Gardner. She made her West End debut in 1949 in 'Western Wind' at the Piccadilly Theatre, followed by a not very successful stint on Broadway in 1951 in 'The Green Bay Tree'. Her television career ran in parallel to her film career, and in 1955 she topped a viewers poll for her performance in the BBC teleplay The Leader of the House. She died in 1956 in London of leukemia. She was 35. At the time of her death, she was appearing in the Agatha Christie play 'The Spider's Web', at the Savoy Theatre, London. Co-stars Margaret Lockwood, Patrick Barr, and Ronald Howard attended her funeral. Her resting place is the Kensal Green Cemetery. Anne Crawford was married to James Hartley (1939-?) and stage and television producer/director Wallace Douglas (1953-1956). David Absalom at British Pictures: "For modern audiences, Crawford's perceived poshness can seem a bit distancing, and it's hard to judge how her career would have panned out had she not died so early. I suspect she would have done okay. She showed enough wit and timing in her few comedy outings and there was always something of the grande dame about her to suggest that she would have only improved with age."

The Shropshire Yeomanry was a yeomanry regiment of the British Army, first raised in 1795, which served as a cavalry and dismounted infantry regiment in the First World War and as a cavalry and an artillery regiment in the Second World War. It was then amalgamated with the Shropshire Royal Horse Artillery.
In 1969, the regiment was replaced by No. 4 Squadron, 35 (South Midlands) Signal Regiment and the Shropshire Yeomanry Cadre. These later formed the Shropshire Yeomanry Squadron of the Queen's Own Mercian Yeomanry before their amalgamation into the Royal Mercian and Lancastrian Yeomanry and subsequent re-subordination to the Royal Yeomanry.
The castle stands at the top of a hill and was built as a defensive fortification for Shrewsbury, which was otherwise protected by the River Severn. Founded by Roger de Montgomery, the oldest parts of Shrewsbury Castle were built between 1066 and 1074, during the reign of William the Conqueror. The castle has since undergone many transformations, the last one being by Thomas Telford who remodelled the interior as a private house in the late 18th century.
In 1835 a group of enquiring minds came together to create a museum in Shrewsbury. Over the years objects arrived from hundreds of people wanting to share their piece of Shropshire’s past. In 2014 the Museum returned to its earlier home with the same aim – to celebrate the stories that make this county unique through these collections.
With over 300,000 items from fossilised rain drops to Queen Victoria’s stockings there is much to amaze, enlighten and amuse.
Shrewsbury Castle also houses the Soldiers of Shropshire Museum. It is a Regimental Museum which houses the collections of the major county Regiments – the King’s Shropshire Light Infantry and its ancestors; the Shropshire Yeomanry; the Shropshire Royal Horse Artillery and the related county Militia, Volunteers and Territorials of Shropshire. The museum displays were completely refurbished after a terrorist attack in 1992, re-opening in 1997, and the collection now proudly lives up to the regimental motto: Aucto Splendore Resurgo (I rise again in Greater Splendour)
For more information please visit: www.soldiersofshropshire.co.uk/Regimental%20Museum/
The Castle was acquired by the Corporation of Shrewsbury in 1924 through the generosity of Shropshire Horticultural Society.
