Alzheimer international Day
Today, 5.3 million people around the world wont remember the news they read this morning.
scary statistics!
La marca ya se logró hace unos días. Entonces, ya escribí unas reflexiones (eduardoariasrabanos.blogspot.com.es/2014/11/3000-fotos-ba...) sobre lo que este hecho me suscitaba. Sospecho que el texto quedó muy poco melancólico, sí muy pesimista y aquejado de un realismo incompleto, si no inexacto.
Si bien se mira, da igual que sean 3.000, 5.000 o un millón. Es lo mismo. Son muchas. Y son muchas porque uno ha invertido mucho tiempo y mucho trabajo en que dichas imágenes estén ahí. También mucho dinero, porque los viajes no salen gratis, pero ésa es otra historia. Hablamos de mucho. Hablamos de cantidad. Lo que festeja esta entrada es una cantidad. Pero, ¿y la calidad? Para la calidad no hay parámetros tan exactos. Sí, en cambio, algunos indicadores. Pero un artista, incluso los más pagados de sí mismos, albergan dudas e inseguridades sobre la naturaleza, la calidad de cuanto sale de ellos. A mayores, en un medio como éste el gusto o la satisfacción (como en otras redes sociales) se mide a golpe de comentario, o de inclusión en una carpeta de favoritas, o tan sólo por la estadística que cada visita genera, a nivel global o a nivel individual de cada fotografía. Pero el gusto o la satisfacción o la recurrencia hacia el sitio, tampoco certifican la calidad. La soledad del creador en ese punto es abrumadora. Aunque a mí sólo me abruma muy de cuando en vez.
Si, siendo extremadamente generosos, me introdujera a mí mismo una buena dosis de autoindulgencia, y decidiera que el 1 % de mis fotos son realmente extraordinarias, saldrían 30. ¿Tiene Henri Cartier-Bresson 30 obras maestras? ¿Las tiene Capa? ¿Ansel Adams llegó a esa cifra? ¿Tiene Annie Leibovitz tal cantidad de retratos excelentes? Vamos a suponer que sí, lo cual en algún caso sería mucho imaginar. (Lo cierto es que yo, por haber concebido y logrado 30 imágenes imperecederas, ¿quién sabe lo que daría?). Pero estamos hablando de dioses de la fotografía. Y yo ni soy una dios, ni llego siquiera a mensajero o copero de las divinidades del Olimpo. ¿Entonces?
Tal vez el problema sea definir qué es una foto buena, cuál una obra maestra, por qué una imagen resulta prescindible, pese a su agradable visionado, o cuáles son los rasgos por los que algunas fotografías, una vez vistas, no se olvidan jamás. Vamos, el problema de cualquier disciplina artística. Y eso sí que es un problema.
De modo que el análisis se cierra por insoluble. Yo me quedo con lo que pienso de mis fotos. Quienes me visitáis tenéis vuestras opiniones. Y lo único objetivo del asunto es que tengo algo más de 3.000 fotografías de difusión pública, algunos cientos de miles en las bodegas de mis discos duros, y muchas ganas de seguir colgando dos fotos diarias, cuatro cuando se puede, y si no se cuelga ninguna, tampoco pasa nada. La vida sigue. Y hay más vida además de la fotografía.
Un saludo agradecido a todos quienes me visitáis, comentáis, criticáis, valoráis.

Molllom is a great anti spam web service which is being used on musescore.org.
However, spam is not always posted by a robot and so extra functionality is necessary to empower the MuseScore community to report spam. Today, this has been rolled out. Let's see how it works out.

I know, what's with the spheres lately?!
This really is just a bunch of dots on a sphere, a visualisation of my new data-set to be. But "normally distribute" those dots along the equator was surprisingly tricky?! Did not expect that. Probably overlooked something.
.In summary, talking about the perpetrators based on the data from our sample: more than 80 percent of them are not of the main nationality in Russia, their level of intelligence is on average lower than that of the T.I.s, they have health problems from birth, they don’t like sports and don’t have other hobbies, they are not married, they don’t have children in the most productive periods of their lives, they on average quite risk averse in comparison to T.I.s, they avoid working for a certain sub-industry of the military-industrial complex, and patriotism is, probably, no their favorite word. If Russia, as some ‘scientists’ put it,is a “natural laboratory or a natural experiment”, then these results can be and will be generalizable to other countries too.
The results presented here are not the revelations of the last days, but it would be interesting to see the ‘hit-rate’, the number of correctly guessed cases when the perpetrators and those who are behind all of this, open their archives.

Again a new download record: more than 40.000 downloads in one month. Yeah!
As you can see, a maximum of 2500 downloads was reached on the 9th of June. That is due to the release of 0.9.6. Quickly, it went back to it's previous level of ~1400 downloads per day.
For the next release, we expect another step in the growth of MuseScore with the implementation of the number one feature request: guitar tabs & fretboards!

Hampi (Kannada: ಹಂಪೆ Hampe) is a village in northern Karnataka, India. It is located within the ruins of the city of Vijayanagara, the former capital of the Vijayanagara Empire. Predating the city of Vijayanagara, it continues to be an important religious centre, housing the Virupaksha Temple, as well as several other monuments belonging to the old city. The ruins are a UNESCO World Heritage Site, listed as the Group of Monuments at Hampi. According to statistics of 2014, Hampi is the most searched historical place in Karnataka on Google.
ETYMOLOGY
'Hampi traditionally known as Pampa-kshetra, Kishkinda-kshetra or Bhaskara-kshetra is derived from Pampa, which is the old name of the Tungabhadra River on whose southern banks the city is built. The name "Hampi" is an anglicized version of the Kannada Hampe (derived from Pampa). Over the years, it has also been referred to as Vijayanagara and Virupakshapura (from Virupaksha, the patron deity of the Vijayanagara rulers).
HISTORY
The emperor Ashoka's minor rock edicts in Nittur & Udegolan (both in Bellary district) leads one to believe that this region was within the Ashokan kingdom during the 3rd century BCE. A Brahmi inscription & a terracotta seal dating to the 2nd century CE were also discovered from the excavation site.
The first historical settlements in Hampi date back to 1 CE.
Immediately before the rise of the Vijaynagara kings, the region was probably in the hands of chiefs of Kampili, now a small town, 19 km east of Hampi.
Hampi formed one of the core areas of the capital of the Vijayanagara Empire from 1343 to 1565, when it was finally laid siege to by the Deccan Muslim confederacy. Hampi was chosen because of its strategic location, bounded by the torrential Tungabhadra river on one side and surrounded by defensible hills on the other three sides.
The site is significant historically and architecturally. The topography abounds with large stones which have been used to make statues of Hindu deities. The Archaeological Survey of India continues to conduct excavations in the area, to discover additional artifacts and temples.
GEOGRAPHY
Hampi is situated on the banks of the Tungabhadra river. It is 353 km from Bangalore and 74 km away from Bellary. Hosapete (Hospet), 13 km away, is the nearest railway head. Mantralayam, which is also on the banks of Tunghabhadra, in AP is some 150 km away.The principal industries of the village are agriculture, the support of the Virupaksha temple and some other local holy places in the vicinity, as well as tourism. The annual Vijayanagara Festival is organized by the Government of Karnataka in November.
Due to the presence of several mineral deposits in this region (iron-ore, manganese), mining has been done for a number of years. A recent boom for the supply of iron-ore in the international market has led to increased levels of mining in this district. Some feel that the World Heritage Site at Hampi as well as the Tungabhadra Dam is under threat as a result.
ARCHITECTURE
The city of Vijayanagara was originally encompassed by seven lines of fortifications. These fortifications had a large number of bastions & gateways. The seventh & the innermost fortification enclosed the main city & is the best preserved. The extant monuments of Vijayanagara or Hampi can be divided into Religious, Civil & Military buildings. While most of the monuments at Hampi are from the Vijayanagara period, a small proportion may be assigned to pre-Vijayanagara times. The Jain temples on Hemakuta hill, the two Devi shrines & some other structures in the Virupaksha temple complex predate the Vijanagara empire. The earliest amongst them, the Shaiva shrines with their stepped pyramidal vimanas or superstructures, date to the early Chalukyan period around ninth-tenth century AD.
RELIGIOUS BUILDINGS
Hampi has various notable Hindu temples with some vedanta mythology inside the temples, some of which are still active places of worship. Among the most notable are:
- Achyutaraya Temple
- Badavi Linga
- Chandramauleshwara Temple
- Malyavanta Raghunathaswamy temple was constructed in the ancient style of architecture, the temple of Malyavanta Raghunathaswamy stands 3 km down the road. Its inner walls flaunt peculiar and interesting motifs of fish and marine creatures.
- Hazara Rama Temple Complex: This ruined temple complex is well known for elaborate frescoes from the Hindu religion and a sprawling courtyard well-laid with gardens. It is well known for more than many thousand carvings & inscriptions on & in the temple depicting the mighty story of Ramayana. It has about 1000 carvings & inscriptions depicting the story of Ramayana.
- Hemakuta group of temples
- Krishna Temple Complex: This temple complex has been recently excavated through the last decade, and restoration work is still in progress. The temple has the Sacred Tank or the Pushkarani located on its eastern side.
- Vittala Temple Complex:
This is perhaps the most famous and well-known among the ruins of Hampi. The iconic stone chariot in the vicinity of this temple complex is a symbol of Karnataka Tourism. Off late, floodlights have been installed in the temple complex that provide illumination at dusk, thereby adding to the grandeur of the architecture.
The temple houses the famous musical pillars. The British wanted to check the reason behind this wonder and so they had cut two pillars to check anything was there inside the pillars that was producing the sound. They had found nothing but hollow pillars. Even today we can see those pillars cut by the British.
The road leading to the temple was once a market where the horses were traded. Even today we can see the ruins of the market on both the sides of the road. The temple contains the images of foreigners like Persians selling horses.
- Muslim Sunni masjid
- Preksha temple and groups
- Saasivekaalu Ganesha
