The Zelve Monastery is a Byzantine-era monastery that was carved into the rock in pre-iconoclastic times. It is part of the Zelve Open Air Museum, located between Ürgüp and Avanos.[1]
Remains
The remains of the Zelve monastery complex are located on the northern slopes of Aktepe, 1 km from Paşa Bağlari and 10 km out from Göreme on the Avanos road. Zelve does not have the rich frescoes of Göreme and other Cappadocian locations. Zelve is spread out over three valleys, of which two are connected by a tunnel. The complex contains innumerable rooms and passages which also house many pointed fairy chimneys with large stems, at about 40 feet above the valley floor.
The valley was a monastic retreat between the 9th and 13th centuries.[1] Christians moved to Zelve during the Persian and Arab invasions.[citation needed] The site was inhabited until 1952 when villagers were relocated to nearby Aktepe due to safety concerns.[1]
Cappadocia's first seminaries to train priests are located here at the monastery. Dating back to the early years of monastery life in Zelve is the Direkli Church (with the famed columns). Direkli is located at the bottom of the slope. The main decorations are iconoclastic-doctrine high relief crosses. The valley also contains the Balikli Kilise (Fish), Üzümlü Kilise (Grapes) churches and the now totally collapsed Geyikli Kilise (Deer church). These churches date to the pre-iconoclastic period.
The area was inhabited until 1952, when the last inhabitants moved to the new town Yeni Zelve ("New Zelve"), 2 km away. In 1967, Zelve was turned into an open-air museum.
The area also contains houses, a tunnel joining two of the valleys, a mill (without sails), and a small mosque. Several dovecotes are found in the valley.

CAPPADOCIA WORLD HERITAGE LIST :

In a spectacular landscape, entirely sculpted by erosion, the Göreme valley and its surroundings contain rock-hewn sanctuaries that provide unique evidence of Byzantine art in the post-Iconoclastic period. Dwellings, troglodyte villages and underground towns – the remains of a traditional human habitat dating back to the 4th century – can also be seen there.
Brief synthesis
Located on the central Anatolia plateau within a volcanic landscape sculpted by erosion to form a succession of mountain ridges, valleys and pinnacles known as “fairy chimneys” or hoodoos, Göreme National Park and the Rock Sites of Cappadocia cover the region between the cities of Nevşehir, Ürgüp and Avanos, the sites of Karain, Karlık, Yeşilöz, Soğanlı and the subterranean cities of Kaymaklı and Derinkuyu. The area is bounded on the south and east by ranges of extinct volcanoes with Erciyes Dağ (3916 m) at one end and Hasan Dağ (3253 m) at the other. The density of its rock-hewn cells, churches, troglodyte villages and subterranean cities within the rock formations make it one of the world's most striking and largest cave-dwelling complexes. Though interesting from a geological and ethnological point of view, the incomparable beauty of the decor of the Christian sanctuaries makes Cappadocia one of the leading examples of the post-iconoclastic Byzantine art period.
It is believed that the first signs of monastic activity in Cappadocia date back to the 4th century at which time small anchorite communities, acting on the teachings of Basileios the Great, Bishop of Kayseri, began inhabiting cells hewn in the rock. In later periods, in order to resist Arab invasions, they began banding together into troglodyte villages or subterranean towns such as Kaymakli or Derinkuyu which served as places of refuge.
Cappadocian monasticism was already well established in the iconoclastic period (725-842) as illustrated by the decoration of many sanctuaries which kept a strict minimum of symbols (most often sculpted or tempera painted crosses). However, after 842 many rupestral churches were dug in Cappadocia and richly decorated with brightly coloured figurative painting. Those in the Göreme Valley include Tokalı Kilise and El Nazar Kilise (10th century), St. Barbara Kilise and Saklı Kilise (11th century) and Elmalı Kilise and Karanlık Kilise (end of the 12th – beginning of the 13th century).
Criterion (i): Owing to their quality and density, the rupestral sanctuaries of Cappadocia constitute a unique artistic achievement offering irreplaceable testimony to the post-iconoclastic Byzantine art period.
Criterion (iii): The rupestral dwellings, villages, convents and churches retain the fossilized image of a province of the Byzantine Empire between the 4th century and the arrival of the Seljuk Turks (1071). Thus, they are the essential vestiges of a civilization which has disappeared.
Criterion (v): Cappadocia is an outstanding example of a traditional human settlement which has become vulnerable under the combined effects of natural erosion and, more recently, tourism.
Criterion (vii): In a spectacular landscape dramatically demonstrating erosional forces, the Göreme Valley and its surroundings provide a globally renowned and accessible display of hoodoo landforms and other erosional features, which are of great beauty, and which interact with the cultural elements of the landscape.
Integrity
Göreme National Park and the Rock Sites of Cappadocia, having been extensively used and modified by man for centuries, is a landscape of harmony combining human interaction and settlement with dramatic natural landforms. There has been some earthquake damage to some of the cones and the pillars, but this is seen as a naturally occurring phenomenon. Overuse by tourists and some vandalism have been reported and some incompatible structures have been introduced.
The erosional processes that formed the distinctive conical rock structures will continue to create new fairy chimneys and rock pillars, however due to the rate of this process, the natural values of the property may still be threatened by unsustainable use. The cultural features, including rock-hewn churches and related cultural structures, mainly at risk of being undermined by erosion and other negative natural processes coupled with mass tourism and development pressures, can never be replaced. threats Some of the churches mentioned by early scholars such as C. Texier, H.G. Rott and Guillaume de Jerphanion are no longer extant.
Authenticity
The property meets the conditions of authenticity as its values and their attributes, including its historical setting, form, design, material and workmanship adequately reflect the cultural and natural values recognized in the inscription criteria.
Given the technical difficulties of building in this region, where it is a matter of hewing out structures within the natural rock, creating architecture by the removal of material rather than by putting it together to form the elements of a building, the underlying morphological structure and the difficulties inherent in the handling of the material inhibited the creative impulses of the builders. This conditioning of human effort by natural conditions persisted almost unchanged through successive periods and civilizations, influencing the cultural attitudes and technical skills of each succeeding generation.
Protection and management requirements
The World Heritage property Göreme National Park and the Rock Sites of Cappadocia is subject to legal protection in accordance with both the Protection of Cultural and Natural Resources Act No. 2863 and the National Parks Act No. 2873. The entire territory between the cities of Nevşehir, Ürgüp and Avanos is designated as a National Park under the Act No. 2873. In addition, natural, archaeological, urban, and mixed archaeological and natural conservation areas, two underground towns, five troglodyte villages, and more than 200 individual rock-hewn churches, some of which contain numerous frescoes, have been entered into the register of immovable monuments and sites according to the Act No. 2863.
Legal protection, management and monitoring of the Göreme National Park and the Rock Sites of Cappadocia fall within the scope of national and regional governmental administrations. The Nevşehir and Kayseri Regional Conservation Councils are responsible for keeping the register of monuments and sites, including carrying out all tasks related to the legal protection of monuments and listed buildings and the approval to carry out any restoration-related works. They also evaluate regional and conservation area plans prepared by the responsible national and/or local (i.e. municipal) authorities.
Studies for revision and updating of the existing land use and conservation plan (Göreme National Park Long-term Development Plan) of 1981 were completed in 2003. The major planning decisions proposed were that natural conservation areas are to be protected as they were declared in 1976. Minor adjustments in the peripheral areas of settlements and spatial developments of towns located in the natural conservation sites including Göreme, Ortahisar, Çavuşin, Ürgüp and Mustafapaşa will be strictly controlled. In other words, the Plan proposes to confine the physical growth of these towns to recently established zones. Hotel developments will take into account the set limits for room capacities. Furthermore, the plan also suggested that local authorities should be advised to review land use decisions for areas that have been reserved for tourism developments in the town plans.
Preparation of conservation area plans for the urban and/or mixed urban-archaeological conservation sites within the historic sections of Göreme are in place and provide zoning criteria and the rules and guidelines to be used in the maintenance and restoration of listed buildings and other buildings which are not registered, but which are located within the historic zones. Similar planning studies for the towns of Ortahisar and Uçhisar are in place. Once finalised, a conservation area plan for the urban conservation area in Ürgüp will be in place. All relevant plans are kept up to date on a continuing basis.
Appropriate facilities aimed at improving the understanding of the World Heritage property have been completed for the subterranean towns of Kaymaklı and Derinkuyu, and are required for Göreme and Paşabağı.
Monuments in danger due to erosion, including the El Nazar, Elmalı, and Meryemana (Virgin Mary) churches, have been listed as monuments requiring priority action. Specific measures for their protection, restoration and maintenance are required at the site level.
While conservation plans and protection measures are in place for individual sites, it is recognised by the principal parties responsible for site management that an integrated Regional Plan for the Cappadocia Cultural and Tourism Conservation and Development Area is required to protect the World Heritage values of the property. Adequate financial, political and technical support is also required to secure the management of the property.

My understanding is that when Trim Castle Hotel was constructed it was necessary to replace a wall partly owned by the church so as compensation the builders undertook to provide the ’stations of the cross’ shown in my photographs.
Because of uneven ground and the location of some trees it can be difficult to properly photograph all of the stations without introducing some distortion. This is, in fact, my third attempt.
If you are not Christian and even then the ’Stations Of The Cross’ may be a bit of a mystery to you.
I should mention that when I was young there were fourteen stations … 7 on each side of the church. When I first photographed the stations in Trim I was more than confused to discover that there were fifteen with the additional one being the Resurrection of Jesus. Further investigation resulted in the following explanation - “Some modern liturgists say the traditional Stations of the Cross are incomplete without a final scene depicting the empty tomb and/or the resurrection of Jesus, because Jesus' rising from the dead was an integral part of his salvific work on Earth. Advocates of the traditional form of the Stations ending with the body of Jesus being placed in the tomb say the Stations are intended as a meditation on the atoning death of Jesus, and not as a complete picture of his life, death, and resurrection”.
Stations of the Cross or the Way of the Cross, also known as Way of Sorrows or Via Crucis, refers to a series of images depicting Jesus Christ on the day of his crucifixion and accompanying prayers. The stations grew out of imitations of Via Dolorosa in Jerusalem which is believed to be the actual path Jesus walked to Mount Calvary. The object of the stations is to help the Christian faithful to make a spiritual pilgrimage through contemplation of the Passion of Christ. It has become one of the most popular devotions and the stations can be found in the churches of many Western Christian denominations, including Anglican, Catholic, Lutheran, Methodist and Western Orthodox parishes.
Commonly, a series of 14 images will be arranged in numbered order along a path and the faithful travel from image to image, in order, stopping at each "station to say the selected prayers and reflections. This will be done individually or in a procession most commonly during Lent, especially on Good Friday, in a spirit of reparation for the sufferings and insults that Jesus endured during his passion.
The style, form, and placement of the stations vary widely. The typical stations are small plaques with reliefs or paintings placed around a church nave. Modern minimalist stations can be simple crosses with a numeral in the centre. Occasionally the faithful might say the stations of the cross without there being any image, such as when the pope leads the stations of the cross around the Colosseum in Rome on Good Friday. The older stations can be an outdoor series of chapels in a landscape, known as a Calvary, and are sites of pilgrimage in their own right. Examples include Sacro Monte Calvario in Italy, Kalwaria Zebrzydowska in Poland, Žemaičių Kalvarija in Lithuania.
Still working on best settings for different types of photography with my Z8. These are a few from this weekend, not understanding how these little goldfinches stay warm in this frigid weather.
"All beings with two, three, four, or five senses.... in fact all creation, know individually pleasure and displeasure, pain, terror, and sorrow.
All are full of fears which come from all directions. And yet there exist people who would cause greater pain to them...
Some kill animals for sacrifice, some for their skin, flesh, blood, ... feathers, teeth, or tusks; ... some kill them intentionally and some unintentionally; some kill because they have been previously injured by them, ... and some because they expect to be injured.
He who harms animals has not understood or renounced deeds of sin...
He who understands the nature of sin against animals is called a true sage who understands karma... "
(Acaranga Sutra, Jainism - Prayer n°3943)
A few hours ago I went back to take a few pictures of those huge Jain thirthankaras (saints) rockcut statues on the way to Gwalior Fort.
This is a close-up of the hand of one of the 24 statues which are standing there since the seventh century a.d..
It belongs to the tallest (about 20 meters) and it is overlooking the city of Gwalior which is located the central Indian state of Madhya Pradesh.
Goethe's approach to understanding nature: quotes from his writings
“After what I have seen of plants and fish in Naples and Sicily, I would be tempted — were I ten years younger — to undertake a journey to India, not to discover something new, but to view in my way what has been discovered.”Goethe (CH; Letter to Knebel, summer 1787)
“If we want to behold nature in a living way, we must follow her example and becomes as mobile and malleable as nature herself.”Goethe (CH; in Miller, p. 64)“There is a delicate empiricism that makes itself utterly identical with the object, thereby becoming true theory. But this enhancement of our mental powers belongs to a highly evolved age.”Goethe (in Miller, p. 307)“... Dr. Heinroth speaks favorably of my work; in fact, he calls my approach unique, for he says that my thinking works objectively. Here he means that my thinking is not separate from objects; that the elements of the object, the perceptions of the object, flow into my thinking and are fully permeated by it; that my perception itself is a thinking, and my thinking a perception.”Goethe (in Miller, p. 39)“If I look at the created object, inquire into its creation, and follow this process back as far as I can, I will find a series of steps. Since these are not actually seen together before me, I must visualize them in my memory so that they form a certain ideal whole.”At first I will tend to think in terms of steps, but nature leaves no gaps, and thus, in the end, I will have to see this progression of uninterrupted activity as a whole. I can do so by dissolving the particular without destroying the impression ...“If we imagine the outcome of these attempts, we will see that empirical observation finally ceases, inner beholding of what develops begins, and the idea can be brought to expression.”Goethe (in Miller p. 75)“[Morphology's] intention is to portray rather than explain.”Goethe (in Miller p. 57)“We conceive of the individual animal as a small world, existing for its own sake, by its own means. Every creature is its own reason to be. All its parts have a direct effect on one another, a relationship to one another, thereby constantly renewing the circle of life; thus we are justified in considering every animal physiologically perfect. Viewed from within, no part of the animal — as so often thought — is a useless or arbitrary product of the formative impulse.”Goethe (in Miller, p. 121) Goethe on Experimentation and Making Judgments (From “The Experiment as Mediator Between Object and Subject,” written in 1772; in Miller pp. 11-17.) “We can never be too careful in our efforts to avoid drawing hasty conclusions from experiments or using them directly as proof to bear out some theory. For here at this pass, this transition from empirical evidence to judgment, cognition to application, all the inner enemies of man lie in wait: imagination, which sweeps him away on his wings before he knows his feet have left the ground; impatience; haste; self-satisfaction; rigidity; formalistic thought; prejudice; ease; frivolity; fickleness — this whole throng and its retinue. Here they lie in ambush and surprise not only the active observer but also the contemplative one who appears safe from all passion.”
“I would venture to say we cannot prove anything by one experiment or even several experiments together, that nothing is more dangerous than the desire to prove some thesis directly through experiments. ... Every piece of empirical evidence we find, every experiment in which this evidence is repeated, really represents just one part of what we know. ... Every piece of empirical evidence, every experiment, must be viewed as isolated, yet the human faculty of thought forcibly strives to unite all external objects known to it. ...”
“We often find that the more limited the data, the more artful a gifted thinker will become. As though to assert his sovereignty he chooses a few agreeable favorites from the limited number of facts and skillfully marshals the rest so they never contradict him directly. Finally he is able to confuse, entangle, or push aside the opposing facts and reduce the whole to something more like the court of a despot than a freely constituted republic.”
One of my newest works. Over the past year, I have spent a great many hours focusing on character creation. In this exploration, the settings have been demoted to gloomy indistinct places.
After reviewing my own work, I wondered if the created setting could be itself the character.
My own thoughts about the image.
The image is constructed of layers. It is the understanding from where these image derive give clarity to the image. The brick wall is a wall from a cemetery. The step is from an alley way. The grass is from a forest. The gates are of a mausoleum. The cave is from a sculpture park (represents the cave where the body of Christ's body was placed). The last image is of a forest.
Each layer represents a doorway of some kind. An alley is a 'space between'. Cemeteries are a place where the living set aside for the dead. They are, essentially, a place where the living can commune with the dead. Mausoleums are a place to place the dead; a house for the dead to reside in. Caves, in many cultures, are seen as gates to the 'otherworld'. Forests or nature in general, was once the natural habitat of humanity and humanity found special places to commune with the divine.
All of these create doorways or thresholds through which to pass; progression from the artificial environment Man has created back into his natural environment. The alley is man made being reclaimed by Man's natural state. The cemetery is where Man can enter into the world of the dead. The mausoleum the house of the dead which Man can enter as an invited guest, the cave goes deeper into the dead's world and spills out into Humanity's natural environment; nature.
The other details:
Keyholes represents something that is locked, blocked off, and can only be opened if one wants to or if one has the proper tools to do so. The stone hands are from an angel statue. They represent a more religiously neutral idea of a key of salvation. I typically employ religious elements in my work. However, those elements should be viewed as symbolic rather than religiously inspired. Skulls have been used to represent mortality. Water is a prime element. It has purification elements but also has destructive elements as well.
My own opinion about this piece is that humanity has increasingly become an abstract animal. It creates and builds its own habitat or environment to dwell in and imprisons itself in abstractions. Thus, becoming detach from its natural state of existence as well as the natural processes of natural.
An great example of this is death; one of my primary aesthetics. In the middle ages, people lived with the idea and the reality of death on a daily basis; even bringing the dead closer to themselves throughout the middle ages up to the 18th century (moving cemeteries into cities, fetish cults, cults of relics and saints, etc.). They had intimate knowledge of death, its process and the reality of corporeal corruption death brings. The veil between life and death was, at best, a murky grey line rather than a hard demarcation.
During the 20th century, humanity, at least western man (America especially), has increasingly attempted to deny death as a life process. They mask it during funerals trying to make the deceased appear as alive as possible; embalming the body to stave of corruption, make up to give an appear of the color of life.
The great question, then, is how can Humanity find truth around itself if we live in a world of complete abstraction and blatantly deny fundamental truths about ourselves. We refuse to find truth, to walk through doors because it is frightening in some way? We choose comfort and lies over truth. It doesn't make sense.

### Will Apple Listen to Mark Zuckerberg’s Criticism?
I Don’t Think So—At Least Not for Someone Enchanted by the Apple Vision Pro.
Mark Zuckerberg, CEO of Meta, recently appeared on a well-known podcast, where he criticized Apple for failing to release an innovative product since the iPhone and for experiencing a decline in sales.
Appearing on a podcast originating from Apple and then proceeding to criticize the company might seem like a lighthearted joke, but I believe he was serious.
Why? Because he now wields a weapon—the AR glasses.
With the support of various institutions and a team of highly skilled professionals, he has likely achieved some notable milestones. Yet, as someone who has been a devoted Apple user since the PowerBook 540c, I still do not sense any real craftsmanship or identity in what he creates.
This sentiment extends to other IT giants that currently dominate the world—Meta, Amazon, Tesla, Microsoft, and Google.
Just by listing their names, readers of this text are likely already picturing their respective CEOs.
In the past, I wrote that Steve Jobs was not an artist.
What he excelled at was weaving together scattered ideas from across the world, expanding upon them, and linking them to the future.
The true creator was Jonathan Ive.
A minority of people may share this perspective with me.
However, when I see these IT moguls quickly shifting their corporate stances the moment the possibility of Trump returning to power emerges, I feel compelled to speak my mind.
The AR glasses, the cars—everything they create lacks a fundamental concept.
Call it ideology or, in lighter terms, identity.
It is true that Tim Cook and Apple’s current team have become more prone to letting slip details about upcoming products before their official release.
I have always loved music.
Artists shut themselves in a studio, cutting off the outside world, pouring their anger, hatred, joy, and sorrow into each note with intense focus.
It’s as if they are entrusting something to their music.
And when they finally release their album, they explain the emotions and thoughts behind its creation.
(Prince, whom I admire, rarely spoke about his work, so understanding his art required engaging with the final product itself.)
Until an album is complete and released, artists say nothing.
It was those artists who moved me to my core.
The faint glow of Apple’s innovation still remains within me.
Not even last year’s widely criticized "failure"—the Apple Vision Pro—could extinguish it.
In fact, it shines even brighter than the iPhone.
Because beyond its cutting-edge electronic components, I can sense a concept, an ideology.
Unfortunately, I will never feel the same from Meta’s AR glasses or Tesla’s cars.
I have written at length, but here is the key article:
**Tim Cook Donates Over $1.5 Million to Trump’s Inauguration Ceremony**
🔗 [Gigazine Article](gigazine.net/news/20250104-apple-ceo-tim-cook-donates-1-m...)
At first glance, this might make it seem like Tim Cook, like other tech CEOs, has sold his soul. But that is not the case.
While Cook personally donated to Trump, Apple itself did not follow the same path as other companies.
Apple refused to bow to Trump.
If asked what Apple’s ideology truly is, I would answer this:
**Apple is a group of individuals who believe in themselves.**
Steve Jobs, watching from heaven, is probably chuckling at this overly serious text I wrote.
A company that does not pander to Trump—
That is Apple. :)

8mm film of our honeymoon resurrected after decades.
youtu.be/zH-dG7bMeL4?si=yLF5_f1m-LhAVdPp
We found the 8mm film of our honeymoon for the first time in decades, and burned it onto a DVD.
On June 6, 1993, we got married, and headed straight to Nassau, Bahamas, via New York.
Our destination was the pink sand beach where the late Princess Diana went on her honeymoon.
If you're heading to the Bahamas, this might be a good reference.
The hotel we stayed at was the Ramada Hotel, which no longer exists.
My wife is showing us the hotel room.
But now you can see the beautiful scenery in real time.
When I played the DVD that arrived, it showed footage of our arrival in the Bahamas.
Please take a look if you'd like.
This time, we asked Fujifilm to make the DVD.
I'll post the link below.

From now on I will host "Lot No.402_".
The work of Leonardo da Vinci who was sleeping.
That is the number when it was put up for auction.
No sign was written on the work.
So this work couldn't conclude that it was his work.
However # as a result of various appraisals # it was exposed to the sun.
A work that no one notices. A work that speaks quietly without a title.
I will continue to strive to provide it to many people in various ways.

Main story
There are two reasons why a person faces the sea.
One to enjoy a slice of shine in the sea like children bubbling over in the beach.
The other to brush the dust of memory like an old man who misses old days staring at the shine
quietly.
Those lead to only one meaning though they do not seem to overlap. It’s a rebirth.
I face myself to change tomorrow a vague day into something certain.
That is the meaning of a rebirth.
I had a very sweet girlfriend when I was 18.
After she left I knew the meaning of gentleness for the first time and also a true pain of loss. After
she left # how many times did I depend too much on her # doubt her # envy her and keep on telling lies
until I realized it is love?
I wonder whether a nobody like me could have given something to her who was struggling in the
daily life in those days. Giving something is arrogant conceit. It is nothing but self-satisfaction.
I had been thinking about such a thing.
However I guess what she saw in me was because I had nothing. That‘s why she tried to see
something in me. Perhaps she found a slight possibility in me # a guy filled with ambiguous unstable
tomorrow. But I wasted days depending too much on her gentleness.
Now I finally can convey how I felt in those days when we met.

My Novel : Unforgettable'
(This book is Dedicated to the future artist.)
Kei Kitami, a student preparing for university entrance exams, meets Kaori Kamimura, an event companion six years his senior, through social media.
Kaori has come to Tokyo with a dream—to befriend famous artists.
To achieve this, she needs the influence of Ryo Osawa, a well-known radio producer.
During a live radio broadcast, Osawa speaks directly to Kaori:
*"I have a wife and child. But still, I want to see you."*
Meanwhile, Rika Sanjo, Kei’s classmate who secretly harbors feelings for him, is closely watching Kaori’s every move...

Main story
There are two reasons why a person faces the sea.
One to enjoy a slice of shine in the sea like children bubbling over in the beach.
The other to brush the dust of memory like an old man who misses old days staring at the shine
quietly.
Those lead to only one meaning though they do not seem to overlap. It’s a rebirth.
I face myself to change tomorrow a vague day into something certain.
That is the meaning of a rebirth.
I had a very sweet girlfriend when I was 18.
After she left I knew the meaning of gentleness for the first time and also a true pain of loss. After
she left # how many times did I depend too much on her # doubt her # envy her and keep on telling lies
until I realized it is love?
I wonder whether a nobody like me could have given something to her who was struggling in the
daily life in those days. Giving something is arrogant conceit. It is nothing but self-satisfaction.
I had been thinking about such a thing.
However I guess what she saw in me was because I had nothing. That‘s why she tried to see
something in me. Perhaps she found a slight possibility in me # a guy filled with ambiguous unstable
tomorrow. But I wasted days depending too much on her gentleness.

8 What is copycat? Nowadays # it is suspected to be beaten. There is something called Mimesis?

My shutter feeling.
Today's photo.
It is a photo taken from Eurostar.
This video is an explanation.
I went to Milan in 2005.
At that time # I went from Milan to Venice.
We took Eurostar into the transportation.
This photo was not taken from a very fast Eurostar.
When I changed the track # I took a picture at the moment I slowed down.
Is there a Japanese beside you?
Please have my video translated.

タイトル
“” A.I. アップルのアイデンティティについて””
www.flickr.com/photos/stealaway/54271473379/in/dateposted...
マークザッカーバーグ氏の批判に、アップルは耳を傾けるだろうか。
僕にはそう思えない。アップルヴィジョンプロに夢を見せられた僕には。
メタのマークザッカーバーグ氏は、有名なポッドキャストに出演し、アップルはアイフォン以来革新的な製品を発売せず、売り上げも落ちていると批判したようだ。
アップル発祥のポッドキャストに現れ、アップルを批判すると言うのは軽いジョークに思えるが、真剣に訴えたんだろうと僕は思う。
なぜなら、今の彼はARグラスという武器を手にしているからだ。
おそらく、さまざまな関係機関や優秀なスタッフが彼を支え、それなりの目標を達成したんだろうが、パワーブック５４０cから使い続けてきた僕のような古いアップルファンからしてみれば、まだ物作りのアイデンティを彼からはまったく感じない。
これは他の、現在世界を制覇しているIT企業らも含む。
メタ、アマゾン、テスラ。マイクロソフト。グーグル。
社名が並ぶだけで、このテキストを読まれている方は名前と顔をすでに浮かべているはずだ。
僕は以前、スティーブ・ジョブズはアーティストではないと書いた。
彼は、現世界に散らばったイメージを紡ぎ合わせ、それを膨らます。そして未来へリンクさせる。それが得意だっただけだ。
実際に創作していたのはジョナサンアイブだ。少数ながらも僕のような意見を持っている方もいるだろう。
しかし、先述したIT関連の面々が、トランプ氏に再び権力が戻るとなった途端に会社の方針を覆す様子を見ていると、僕は一言、どうしても意見したいのだ。
彼らが作ったARグラスや車などには、肝心な観念が欠けている。思想という重い言葉や、軽めのアイデンティティと言い換えてもいい。
確かに、ティムクック氏やアップルの現在のスタッフらは、発売前の商品に関して口を滑らせることが多くなった。
僕は、以前から書いているように音楽が大好きだ。
外界を断ち、アーティストらがスタジオにこもって、怒りや憎しみ、喜びや悲しみを一心不乱になって一音に吹き込む。何かを託すと言ってもいい。
そして、完成したアルバムを発表し、どんな思いを込めて制作したのかを語る。（僕が好きなプリンスはほとんど語らなかったので、完成された作品を理解する必要があった）
アルバムが完成し、発表するまで、彼らはひとことも語らない。
僕の胸を震わせたのは、そんなアーティストらだった。
僕の中に淡く灯っているアップルの革新性は、いまでも消えていない。
それは昨年、大失敗だと批判されたアップルヴィジョンプロでさえも消すことはできない。むしろ、アイフォン以上の強烈な光を放っている。
ただの斬新な電化製品ではなく、細かな電気部品の向こうに観念や思想を感じるからだ。
残念ながら、メタのARグラスやテスラの車に、僕がその観念や思想を感じることは今後もないだろう。
長々と書いてきたが、結論は以下の記事だ。
1.5億円超をAppleのティム・クックCEOがトランプの大統領就任式に寄付
gigazine.net/news/20250104-apple-ceo-tim-cook-donates-1-m...
一読すると、ティムクック氏も他のIT会社同様、魂を売ったのかと思われるがそうではない。
ティムクック氏は個人的にトランプ氏へ献金をするが、アップル社だけは他社と同じようには献金していない。
アップルは、トランプ氏になびかなかったのだ。
アップル社の観念や思想とは、具体的に何かと訊かれたら、僕はこう答える。
アップルとは、自分自身を信じる人間が集まっているグループだ。
たぶん、天国のスティーブ・ジョブズは、僕がクソ真面目に書いたテキストを、鼻で笑っていることだろう。
トランプ氏に媚びない会社。
それがAppleさ。:)
１月１５日
嬉しい記事を読んだ後で。

新婚旅行の8mmフィルムを数十年ぶりに復活😃
youtu.be/zH-dG7bMeL4?si=yLF5_f1m-LhAVdPp
新婚旅行の8mmフィルムが数十年ぶりに出てきて、DVDに焼きました。
１９９３年６月６日、僕らは結婚し、そのままニューヨークを経由して、バハマのナッソーへ向かいました。
目的地は、亡くなられたダイアナ妃が新婚旅行へ向かったピンクサンドビーチです。
もしもこれからバハマへ向かうならば、参考に見てもよいかもしれません。
泊まったホテルは、今はもうないラマダホテル。
妻がホテルの部屋を紹介しています。
でも、今はリアルタイムで美しい景色が見られますね。
届いたDVDを再生したら、バハマに到着したところからの映像でした。
もしもよかったら見てください。
今回、DVD化を依頼した場所は、富士フィルムさんです。
下にリンクを貼っておきます。

” Lot No.402_ ” に関するお知らせ。
今後、僕は、” Lot No.402_ ”を主催します。
このロットナンバーは、眠っていたレオナルドダヴィンチの作品がオークションにかけらた際に付されたものです。
作品にはサインなどがいっさい記されていなかったため、彼の作品だと断定できませんでした。
しかし、様々な鑑定の結果、陽の光を浴びました。
誰にも気づかれない作品。肩書がなくとも静かに語りかける作品。
僕はこれから様々な形で、多くの皆様に提供できるよう努めてゆきます。

あらすじ
大学を目指している北見ケイは、SNS上で、6歳年上のイベントコンパニオン、上村香織に出会う。
上京してきた香織の夢は、有名なアーティストの友達になるためだ。
そのためにはラジオ局のプロデューサー、大沢亮の存在が必要だった。
大沢は、ラジオの生放送中、香織へ語りかける。
「僕には妻子がある。しかし、僕は君に会いたいと思っている」
ケイの同級生で、彼を想っている三條里香は、香織の動向を探っていた。。。。。
本編
人が海へ向かう理由には、二つある。
ひとつは、波打ち際ではしゃぐ子供のように、今の瞬間の海の輝きを楽しむこと。
もうひとつは、その輝きを静かに見据えて、過ぎ去った日々を懐かしむ老人のように記憶の埃を払うこと。
二つは重なり合わないようではあるけれども、たったひとつの意味しか生まない。
再生だ。
明日っていう、曖昧な日を確実なものへと変えてゆくために、自分の存在に向き合う。
それが再生の意味だ。
十八歳だった僕には大切な人がいた。

Where is that fine line,

For me it's about trying to find meaning in the visual world, about detecting what Rupert Sheldrake called 'morphic resonance' the evolving sha ping of time space.
THE TYNDALE MONUMENT IS A TOWER BUILT ON A HILL AT NORTH NIBLEY, GLOUCESTERSHIRE, ENGLAND. IT WAS BUILT IN HONOUR OF WILLIAM TYNDALE, A TRANSLATOR OF THE NEW TESTAMENT, WHO IS BELIEVED TO HAVE BEEN BORN AT NORTH NIBLEY. THE TOWER WAS CONSTRUCTED IN 1866, 26FT 6IN SQUARE AT THE BASE AND IS 111 FT (34 M) TALL. IT IS POSSIBLE TO ENTER AND CLIMB TO THE TOP OF THE TOWER, UP A SPIRAL STAIRCASE OF ABOUT 120 STEPS. THE HILL IT IS ON ALLOWS A WIDE RANGE OF VIEWS, ESPECIALLY LOOKING DOWN TO THE RIVER SEVERN. THE HILL ON WHICH THE MONUMENT STANDS IS QUITE STEEP. THERE ARE TWO MAIN PATHS, ONE WHICH GOES UP STEEP STEPS, OR ONE THAT FOLLOWS A ROUGH SLOPE. THE TOWER ITSELF IS SURROUNDED BY FENCING AND HAS FLOODLIGHTS THAT LIGHT UP THE TOWER ON SPECIAL OCCASIONS.THE DOOR TO THE TOWER IS NORMALLY UNLOCKED.
FORBIDDEN TO WORK IN ENGLAND, TYNDALE TRANSLATED AND PRINTED IN ENGLISH THE NEW TESTAMENT AND HALF THE OLD TESTAMENT BETWEEN 1525 AND 1535 IN GERMANY AND THE LOW COUNTRIES. HE WORKED FROM THE GREEK AND HEBREW ORIGINAL TEXTS WHEN KNOWLEDGE OF THOSE LANGUAGES IN ENGLAND WAS RARE. HIS POCKET-SIZED BIBLE TRANSLATIONS WERE SMUGGLED INTO ENGLAND, AND THEN RUTHLESSLY SOUGHT OUT BY THE CHURCH, CONFISCATED AND DESTROYED. CONDEMNED AS A HERETIC, TYNDALE WAS STRANGLED AND BURNED OUTSIDE BRUSSELS IN 1536.
TYNDALE'S ENGLISH TRANSLATION OF THE NEW TESTAMENT WAS TAKEN ALMOST WORD FOR WORD INTO THE MUCH PRAISED AUTHORISED VERSION (KING JAMES BIBLE) OF 1611, WHICH ALSO REPRODUCES A GREAT DEAL OF HIS OLD TESTAMENT. FROM THERE HIS WORDS PASSED INTO OUR COMMON UNDERSTANDING. PEOPLE ACROSS THE WORLD HONOUR HIM AS A GREAT ENGLISHMAN, UNJUSTLY CONDEMNED AND STILL UNFAIRLY NEGLECTED. HIS SOLITARY COURAGE AND HIS SKILL WITH LANGUAGES - INCLUDING, SUPREMELY, HIS OWN - ENRICHED ENGLISH HISTORY IN WAYS STILL NOT PROPERLY EXAMINED, AND THEN REACHED OUT TO AFFECT ALL ENGLISH-SPEAKING NATIONS.

My understanding is that is now known as Broadstone Plaza or the Broadstone Gate and the original plan is described below:
"The Broadstone Gate will provide a key access to the Grangegorman site once complete and is being developed as part of the Luas Cross City works. It will be finished as a public plaza and the access will provide a major linkage between Grangegorman and Dublin city."
"The plaza is situated off Constitution Hill on the site of the old royal canal at the former Great Weatern Railway Station commonly known as Broadstone, and will mark a prominent entrance to the Grangegorman urban quarter."
"Under the Grangegorman Masterplan, the primary urban path through Grangegorman – St Brendan’s Way will link with the Broadstone Gate which when completed will reach as far as Prussia Street. The link with Broadstone can also be seen as an extension to the 18th century historic spine of Dublin City which covered Dublin Castle across Grattan Bridge, along Capel Street/Bolton Street, Henrietta Street and King’s Inn."
The new pedestrian/cyclist link between Grangegorman and Constitution Hill was officially opened in November. This link in its current format is temporary until site development in that area is completed. The initial opening hours for the link are Monday – Friday, from 7am – 4pm and on Saturdays, from 7.30am – 2pm. I have been advised by the Grangegorman Development Agency that it intends to expand these opening hours soon.
As you can see from my photographs the Plaza Area is currently a building site but I am hoping that it will be complete within a few months.

nalysis of BHP's Profitability in Newman and the Absence of a Dialysis Hostel for Local Indigenous Peoples
1. Executive Summary:
BHP, a major global mining company, generates substantial profits from its iron ore operations near Newman in the Pilbara region of Western Australia. These operations have consistently delivered high returns, contributing significantly to both the company's overall financial performance and the revenue of the Western Australian government. Simultaneously, the Indigenous population in the Newman area and the broader Pilbara region experiences a disproportionately high prevalence of chronic kidney disease, often leading to a critical need for dialysis treatment. While BHP has engaged in various community development initiatives in the region, including some contributions to healthcare infrastructure, a dedicated dialysis hostel to accommodate Indigenous patients from remote communities requiring regular treatment in Newman has not been established despite a clear and persistent need. This report examines the interplay between BHP's profitability, the healthcare needs of the local Indigenous population, the company's existing community contributions, the complexities of establishing a dialysis hostel in a remote area, the roles and responsibilities of mining companies and government in healthcare provision, differing perspectives on corporate social responsibility, existing partnerships, and the history of proposals related to a dialysis hostel in Newman. The analysis aims to provide a comprehensive understanding of the factors contributing to this apparent disparity and to offer informed recommendations for addressing the identified gap in healthcare infrastructure.
2. BHP's Iron Ore Operations and Profitability in the Pilbara:
BHP's presence in the Pilbara region of Western Australia, particularly its Newman Operations, forms a cornerstone of its global iron ore business. Operating since 1968, Newman Operations, encompassing Newman East and Newman West, contribute a significant volume of approximately 78 million tonnes to BHP's total annual iron ore production. The Pilbara itself is a critical global source of iron ore, with Western Australia being the largest supplier worldwide, accounting for over a third of the global supply. BHP's contribution to this sector is substantial, representing a significant portion of the state's exports and employing a considerable number of people in the region.
The financial performance of BHP's iron ore operations in the Pilbara is consistently strong. In the fiscal year 2024, the company achieved record production volumes at Western Australia Iron Ore (WAIO), solidifying its position as the lowest-cost major iron ore producer globally. This efficiency translates directly into high profitability, with WAIO consistently achieving Underlying EBITDA margins exceeding 50% for the past eight years, reaching 54% in FY24. The company's overall revenue in FY24 saw a 3% increase to US$55.7 billion, primarily driven by higher realized prices for key commodities, including iron ore, and increased sales volumes. The underlying attributable profit for the same period was US$13.7 billion, a 2% increase year-on-year. These figures underscore the immense profitability of BHP's operations in the Pilbara region. Furthermore, BHP is a major contributor to government revenues in Australia. In FY24, total payments to governments amounted to US$11.2 billion. While the specific contribution from WA is not isolated in this figure, data from FY23 indicates that Australia accounted for the largest share of BHP's global economic contribution (US$40.4 billion) and government payments (US$12.1 billion). BHP also invests significantly in community development in Western Australia, allocating US$518 million in FY23 towards such initiatives.
The consistent status of BHP's WAIO as a low-cost producer with remarkably high profit margins year after year indicates a robust and financially powerful operation in the Pilbara. This sustained financial strength over an extended period suggests that the company possesses a significant capacity to allocate resources towards initiatives that benefit the communities in which it operates, beyond its core mining activities. The substantial contribution of BHP's operations to the revenue of the Western Australian government also highlights the significant economic influence of the company in the region. This interdependence raises important considerations about how these government revenues are utilized and the shared responsibility between the government and BHP in addressing the needs of the communities impacted by mining.

FY24266 55.7 13.7 54% 11.2 Data not yet released
Note: Revenue and Underlying Attributable Profit are for the entire BHP Group, but iron ore from WAIO is a major contributor. Community Development Investment data for FY24 will be released later.
3. The Prevalence of Kidney Disease and the Need for Dialysis Among Indigenous People in Newman:
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) poses a significant health challenge for Indigenous Australians, with prevalence rates considerably higher than those of their non-Indigenous counterparts. Data from 2012-13 revealed that nearly one in five Indigenous Australian adults exhibited biomedical signs of CKD, a rate twice as high as that for non-Indigenous adults. The likelihood of developing CKD increases with age and is particularly elevated among individuals residing in remote areas. Alarmingly, Aboriginal people living in remote regions experience incidence rates of end-stage kidney disease that can be up to 20 times the national average.
This higher prevalence of CKD directly translates to a disproportionate need for kidney replacement therapy, including dialysis. Hospitalization rates for dialysis care are eleven times higher for Indigenous Australians compared to non-Indigenous Australians. Similarly, the incidence of kidney failure requiring replacement therapy is six times as high for Indigenous Australians. As of December 2021, 85% of Indigenous Australians receiving kidney replacement therapy were undergoing dialysis.
While specific data on the prevalence of kidney disease among Indigenous people in Newman is limited within the provided research material, the established pattern of higher rates in remote areas strongly suggests that the Indigenous community in Newman and the broader Pilbara region faces a similar, if not more severe, burden of CKD. The very existence of a specialist partnership with the Puntukurnu Aboriginal Medical Service (PAMS) in Newman, focused on improving the detection and treatment of kidney disease, underscores the significance of this health issue within the local Indigenous population. Data from the Shire of East Pilbara in 2021 indicates that 1.5% of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander persons reported having kidney disease. However, this figure likely represents only those who are aware of their condition, as a substantial number of individuals with early-stage CKD remain undiagnosed.
The consistently reported and significantly elevated rates of CKD and the subsequent need for dialysis among Indigenous Australians, particularly in remote regions such as the Pilbara, highlight a critical and long-standing health inequity. This disparity is not a marginal difference but a substantial order of magnitude, indicating systemic factors and an urgent need for accessible and culturally appropriate treatment options. Furthermore, the considerable number of Indigenous individuals with CKD who are unaware of their condition until later stages emphasizes the critical importance of not only providing treatment facilities like dialysis but also implementing robust early detection and preventative health programs within these communities. A dialysis hostel, while essential for those with end-stage kidney disease, represents just one component of a comprehensive strategy needed to address this health crisis.

4. BHP's Current Community Development and Health Initiatives in Newman:
BHP actively engages in community development initiatives in Western Australia, demonstrating a commitment to the regions where it operates. In FY23, the company invested a significant sum of $518 million in community development projects across the state. This investment encompasses a range of programs, including direct contributions to social initiatives and support for numerous local organizations through their community grants program. The BHP WA Community Grants program specifically provides ongoing support to not-for-profit entities in areas like Newman, focusing on initiatives that promote positive community, environmental, and economic development, aligning with their objective of fostering thriving and empowered communities.
Within Newman, BHP has made notable contributions to healthcare infrastructure and services. A significant example is their $15 million contribution towards the development of the new $61.4 million Newman Health Service. This modern facility offers a range of essential services, including an emergency department, inpatient beds, and a dental clinic, representing a substantial enhancement to the local healthcare system. Recognizing the specific and pressing need for dialysis services within the community, BHP committed $1.9 million in 2021 to the Puntukurnu Aboriginal Medical Service (PAMS) for the establishment of a dedicated dialysis clinic located within the PAMS healthcare center in Newman. This purpose-built clinic is the first of its kind in the town and has the capacity to treat up to ten patients daily, providing crucial access to specialized dialysis treatment. Further supporting PAMS, BHP has also funded additional General Practitioners to address the high demand for primary healthcare services in Newman. During the COVID-19 pandemic, BHP also provided essential medical supplies, such as rapid antigen tests and surgical masks, to PAMS for distribution within Newman and surrounding communities. BHP's partnership with Telethon has also channeled funds to the Upstream Health Project, managed by PAMS, which delivers culturally appropriate maternal and child health services in the East Pilbara region.
Beyond direct healthcare investments, BHP supports other initiatives in Newman that have indirect positive impacts on health and well-being. They partner with the Newman Neighbourhood Centre, providing financial support for various community programs and subsidizing childcare fees, thereby contributing to the overall well-being of families and children. This center serves as a vital hub for community connection and provides access to a range of essential services, including a community nurse. BHP is also a key partner in the Pilbara Education Partnership, investing in educational services within public schools in Newman and the surrounding areas. Improved educational outcomes are recognized as having long-term positive effects on health literacy and overall quality of life. Furthermore, through a collaborative effort with Fortescue and the WA Government, BHP is investing in the Pilbara Safe Spaces program in Newman. This initiative aims to provide safe environments for vulnerable youth and connect them with crucial support services, including an Indigenous Healing Service, addressing social determinants of health that can significantly impact mental and physical well-being. BHP also partners with Wanslea to enhance the availability of affordable childcare services in regional Western Australia, including the Pilbara, which can positively impact the health and well-being of families.
While BHP has made considerable financial contributions to the healthcare infrastructure in Newman, particularly through the funding of the dialysis clinic at PAMS, the persistent need for a dedicated hostel for dialysis patients suggests a potential gap in fully addressing the needs of individuals traveling from remote communities for treatment. The existing clinic, while essential, may not adequately support patients requiring frequent and potentially extended treatment periods who lack suitable accommodation in Newman. BHP's broader community investments, while valuable and contributing to the overall well-being of the community, may not directly address the immediate and specific need for accommodation for dialysis patients from remote areas.

5. The Costs and Logistical Considerations of Establishing a Dialysis Hostel in Remote WA:
Providing dialysis treatment, especially in remote regions like Newman, entails significant financial investment and logistical planning. In 2009, the estimated annual cost for one person receiving in-center dialysis was approximately $80,000, with expenses potentially higher in rural and remote areas. More recent data from 2015-2016 indicated that the annual per-patient cost for hemodialysis in remote satellite units ranged considerably, with a median cost of around $99,888 per year. Notably, remote services often face higher operational costs, primarily driven by increased staffing expenses.
Establishing the necessary infrastructure for both dialysis treatment and accommodation also requires substantial capital expenditure. In 2016-2017, the construction of a 20-bed renal hostel in Derby cost $6.3 million, while a four-chair renal dialysis unit in Fitzroy Crossing was built for $3.6 million. A more recent example is the $7.4 million investment in a new renal hostel in Kalgoorlie, with capital funding provided by the Commonwealth Government and ongoing operational costs covered by the WA Government.
Operating a dialysis hostel in a remote setting like Newman presents a unique set of logistical challenges. These include ensuring consistent staffing with qualified medical professionals trained in dialysis treatment, maintaining reliable utilities (water, electricity), providing regular cleaning and maintenance of the facility, and securing adequate insurance coverage. Transportation of patients from their often-remote communities to the hostel and then to their dialysis appointments is another significant logistical and financial factor that needs to be carefully considered. Furthermore, it is crucial to provide culturally appropriate and comfortable accommodation for patients who may be away from their families, communities, and familiar support networks for extended periods while undergoing treatment. The accommodation itself needs to be conducive to the health and well-being of patients with compromised immune systems.
The considerable capital costs associated with building renal hostels and the substantial annual per-patient cost of dialysis treatment highlight the significant long-term financial commitment required to establish and operate a dialysis hostel in Newman. This suggests that a sustainable solution would likely necessitate a collaborative funding approach involving contributions from various stakeholders, including potential capital funding from mining companies like BHP and a commitment from the government to cover ongoing operational expenses. The higher operational costs typically encountered in remote areas underscore the challenges of attracting and retaining qualified medical staff and managing the complex logistics involved in delivering healthcare services in such settings. Any plan for a dialysis hostel in Newman must carefully consider these staffing and logistical complexities to ensure its long-term viability and effectiveness. The successful establishment of renal hostels in other remote communities within Western Australia, such as Derby, Fitzroy Crossing, and Kalgoorlie , offers valuable insights and potential models for developing a similar facility in Newman, particularly regarding funding frameworks and operational considerations.

6. The Roles and Responsibilities of Mining Companies and Government in Healthcare Provision:
In Australia, the provision of healthcare services is primarily the responsibility of the government, at both the federal and state levels. This includes ensuring access to essential medical services for all citizens, irrespective of their location, including those residing in remote mining regions. The Western Australian government's commitment to funding the ongoing operational costs of renal hostels in regional centers like Kalgoorlie exemplifies this fundamental responsibility.
However, mining companies also have certain responsibilities related to the health and well-being of the communities in which they operate. Legally, mining companies are obligated to ensure the safety and health of their employees and contractors within the workplace. This includes implementing comprehensive occupational health and safety standards, conducting regular health assessments for workers exposed to specific occupational hazards, and actively monitoring for the development of work-related diseases. These legal obligations are typically mandated through state-based legislation, such as the Mines Safety and Inspection Act 1994 in Western Australia.
Beyond these legal requirements, the concept of a "social license to operate" has gained increasing prominence in the mining industry. This concept recognizes the need for mining companies to earn and maintain the acceptance and support of local communities and stakeholders, particularly Indigenous communities, who are often directly impacted by mining activities. Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) extends beyond legal compliance and encompasses a broader range of voluntary actions and commitments undertaken by companies to address the social and environmental consequences of their operations and to contribute positively to the well-being of their stakeholders. This can include investments in community health initiatives, educational programs, and infrastructure development. The Minerals Council of Australia (MCA) acknowledges the importance of mining companies fostering opportunities that lead to improved health and economic outcomes for Indigenous communities.
The World Bank emphasizes that ensuring the health of local communities in mining regions is a shared responsibility between mining companies and government health authorities, advocating for joint prioritization and aligned interventions. In Australia, a growing trend involves collaborative partnerships where mining companies work in conjunction with government agencies, Indigenous organizations, and healthcare providers to address specific community needs.
While the government bears the primary responsibility for ensuring healthcare access for all citizens, the significant economic influence and substantial presence of mining companies in regions like the Pilbara create an environment where these companies are often expected to contribute to the well-being of the communities in which they operate, extending beyond their direct workforce. This expectation is particularly pronounced when addressing the health needs of Indigenous communities who may be disproportionately affected by health issues, such as the high prevalence of kidney disease. The legal health responsibilities of mining companies are primarily focused on their employees and the management of occupational health hazards. The health needs of the broader community, while increasingly falling under the purview of social responsibility, occupy a less clearly defined area of obligation. This ambiguity can lead to ongoing discussions regarding the appropriate level of involvement for mining companies in addressing community health issues like the significant dialysis needs of Indigenous people in Newman.
7. Perspectives on the Social Responsibility of Mining Corporations Towards Indigenous Health:
There are varying perspectives on the extent to which mining corporations like BHP bear social responsibility for the health and well-being of Indigenous communities in the regions where they operate. One perspective argues strongly that due to the significant impact of mining operations on the environment and social fabric of Indigenous lands, companies have a profound ethical obligation to contribute to the health and well-being of these communities. This viewpoint emphasizes that addressing the substantial health disparities faced by Indigenous Australians, including the alarmingly high rates of kidney disease, aligns with broader national goals of reconciliation and closing the gap in health outcomes. Furthermore, proponents of this view argue that highly profitable companies like BHP possess a greater capacity, and therefore a greater responsibility, to invest in the communities that contribute to their success. Such investments can also foster stronger relationships and secure a more sustainable social license to operate.
Conversely, another perspective posits that the primary responsibility for providing healthcare rests with the government, which is funded by taxes and royalties paid by corporations like BHP. From this viewpoint, mining companies fulfill their primary social responsibility by generating economic activity, providing employment opportunities, and contributing to government revenue through taxes and royalties, which can then be allocated to public services, including healthcare. Defining the precise boundaries of a corporation's social responsibility can be challenging, and some argue that overreach could potentially blur the lines between corporate and governmental roles in service provision.
Critical perspectives on CSR in the mining sector raise concerns about the genuine impact of these initiatives. Some research suggests that CSR efforts can sometimes be strategically employed to enhance a company's public image or to manage regulatory requirements, rather than stemming from a deep-seated commitment to community well-being. There are also instances where legally mandated obligations or standard operational expenses are presented as acts of corporate philanthropy. The actual effectiveness of CSR programs in addressing the specific needs and concerns of Indigenous stakeholders, particularly those most directly affected by mining operations, has also been questioned.
The debate surrounding the social responsibility of mining corporations in relation to Indigenous health is intricate, encompassing ethical considerations, legal frameworks, and economic realities. There is no universally agreed-upon definition of the appropriate level of responsibility for a mining company in this context. The potential for CSR initiatives to be used for public relations purposes or to manage legal obligations underscores the importance of transparency, accountability, and genuine partnerships with Indigenous communities to ensure that social responsibility efforts yield meaningful and sustainable benefits.
8. Existing Partnerships and the History of Dialysis Hostel Proposals in Newman:
BHP has established several partnerships in Newman that aim to support healthcare and community well-being. Their collaboration with the Puntukurnu Aboriginal Medical Service (PAMS) is a significant example, involving a substantial $1.9 million contribution towards the establishment of the first dialysis clinic in Newman. This partnership also extends to ongoing support, including funding for additional General Practitioners to serve the community. Furthermore, BHP has partnered with the Western Australian government on various community initiatives, including their $15 million contribution to the new Newman Health Service. They are also collaborating with Fortescue and the Cook Government, along with Aboriginal Community Controlled Organisations (ACCOs), on the Pilbara Safe Spaces program in Newman. BHP also supports the Newman Neighbourhood Centre through funding for their diverse programs and has a long-term partnership with Wanslea to improve childcare services in regional Western Australia, including the Pilbara.
Despite these partnerships and contributions to healthcare in Newman, there has been a recognized and long-standing need for a dedicated dialysis hostel to accommodate patients traveling from remote Indigenous communities for treatment. A news report highlighted the dire circumstances faced by these patients, who often endure overcrowded living conditions or even sleep outdoors while undergoing life-saving dialysis. The report noted that other regional centers in Western Australia with dialysis facilities, such as Kalgoorlie and Port Hedland, have established hostels, and similar facilities were planned for Broome and Karratha, but not for Newman.
The news report also revealed that BHP had donated five abandoned houses in Newman with the intention of them being converted into a short-term hostel for dialysis patients. However, advocates involved in the proposal indicated that a significant funding shortfall of $9 million was still required to renovate these derelict buildings to a suitable standard for accommodating vulnerable patients. The report suggests that progress on this hostel development had been slow, leaving a critical need unmet.
BHP's donation of houses for a dialysis hostel indicates an initial acknowledgment of the accommodation needs of dialysis patients from remote communities. However, the considerable funding gap that remains for the necessary renovations and the apparent lack of further progress suggest a potential disconnect between this initial gesture and a comprehensive solution to the problem. The fact that other regional centers with similar mining operations and Indigenous populations requiring dialysis have successfully established hostels underscores that the lack of such a facility in Newman is not a unique situation in remote WA. It raises questions about the specific challenges or lack of coordinated effort in Newman that have impeded the development of this crucial infrastructure, despite BHP's significant presence and profitability in the region.
9. Conclusion and Recommendations:
The analysis reveals a stark contrast between BHP's substantial and consistent profitability from its iron ore operations near Newman and the persistent lack of a dedicated dialysis hostel for the local Indigenous population, who experience a disproportionately high burden of chronic kidney disease requiring dialysis. While BHP has made significant contributions to the Newman community's healthcare infrastructure, including funding a dialysis clinic and supporting other health-related initiatives, the absence of suitable accommodation for patients traveling from remote communities for treatment remains a critical unmet need. The costs and logistical complexities of establishing a dialysis hostel in a remote area are significant, requiring a collaborative approach involving both corporate and government support. The responsibility for healthcare provision primarily lies with the government, but the concept of a social license to operate and corporate social responsibility suggests that highly profitable companies like BHP have an ethical obligation to contribute to the well-being of the communities impacted by their operations. The history of a proposal involving BHP's donation of houses for a hostel, which has stalled due to a lack of funding for renovations, highlights a missed opportunity to address this pressing issue.
To bridge this gap and ensure that Indigenous people in the Newman region have equitable access to life-saving dialysis treatment, the following recommendations are put forth:
BHP should make a substantial financial commitment to fully fund the capital costs required to convert the donated houses or build a new, fit-for-purpose dialysis hostel in Newman. Given their consistent high profitability in the region , BHP has the financial capacity to address this critical need. This would build upon their initial donation and demonstrate a genuine commitment to the health and well-being of the local Indigenous community.
The Western Australian Government should commit to funding the ongoing operational costs of a dialysis hostel in Newman. This would align with their responsibility for providing essential healthcare services and mirror their support for similar facilities in other regional centers.
A collaborative partnership should be formalized between BHP, the WA Government, the Puntukurnu Aboriginal Medical Service (PAMS), and representatives from the local Indigenous community to co-design and oversee the development and management of the dialysis hostel. This partnership would ensure that the facility is culturally appropriate, meets the specific healthcare needs of the intended users, and benefits from the expertise and resources of all stakeholders.
Beyond the immediate need for a hostel, all stakeholders should invest in and support long-term strategies focused on the early detection, prevention, and management of chronic kidney disease within Indigenous communities in the Pilbara. This includes culturally appropriate health education, regular screening programs, and improved access to primary healthcare services to address the root causes of the high prevalence of kidney disease.
By embracing these recommendations, BHP, in collaboration with the government and the local community, has the opportunity to make a tangible and lasting positive impact on the lives and well-being of Indigenous people in the Newman region, addressing a critical healthcare need and demonstrating a meaningful commitment to social responsibility.

Understanding the Context
I'm starting to look into why a profitable mining company like BHP might not have developed a dialysis hostel for Indigenous people near their Newman operations. My initial focus is on understanding two key aspects: BHP's financial success in the region and the extent of kidney disease among the local Indigenous population. This will help me establish the context for the user's question.
Next Steps in Research
To gain a comprehensive understanding, I plan to investigate BHP's existing community contributions in the Newman area, the typical costs involved in setting up and running a dialysis hostel in a remote location, and the general responsibilities of mining companies versus government bodies in providing healthcare services. I will also explore different perspectives on corporate social responsibility in this context.

BHP's Financial Performance
I've found that BHP's iron ore operations near Newman are indeed very profitable. Their recent financial reports show billions of dollars in profit, and the Newman operations are highlighted as being particularly efficient and cost-effective.
High Rates of Kidney Disease
My research confirms that Indigenous Australians in the Pilbara region, including near Newman, experience significantly higher rates of chronic kidney disease compared to the non-Indigenous population. This unfortunately leads to a greater need for dialysis treatment in these communities.
Existing Community Support
It appears BHP does contribute to the local community through various programs in education and health. These initiatives include partnerships for education, support for youth programs, and funding for health services, some of which are specifically targeted towards Indigenous communities.
Further Investigation Needed
To get a clearer picture, I now need to look into the typical costs of establishing and running a dialysis hostel in a remote area, understand the roles and responsibilities of mining companies versus government in providing healthcare infrastructure, and explore different viewpoints on corporate social responsibility concerning Indigenous health. I also want to see if there have been any past discussions about a dialysis hostel in Newman and BHP's involvement.

Financial Success Confirmed
I've confirmed that BHP's iron ore operations in the Newman area are highly profitable, contributing significantly to their overall financial results. These operations are recognized for their efficiency in the global market.
Disproportionate Health Issue
The information I found reinforces that Indigenous Australians in the Pilbara region, where Newman is located, face a much higher incidence of chronic kidney disease, leading to a greater need for dialysis services compared to other populations.
Ongoing Community Contributions
My investigation shows that BHP actively engages in community development in the Newman area through various initiatives. These include significant investments in education partnerships and support for programs aimed at improving the well-being of young people and families, including some health-focused projects.
Considering Broader Context
Having gathered substantial information on BHP's profitability, the prevalence of kidney disease, and their community contributions, I'm now considering the broader context. It seems the absence of a dedicated dialysis..
From my question to Google Gemini Deap Research about why cant BHP fund a dyalysis unit from the Billions they make on Iron Ore...
Just read an amazing collection of essays by F. Gonzalez-Cruisi entitled, "Notes of an Anatomist." His experiences within the medical field (autopsy,embalming, etc) as a basis for further thought on subjects ranging from child abuse to the human understanding of monsters. Really brilliant, find yourself a copy.

### Will Apple Listen to Mark Zuckerberg’s Criticism?
I Don’t Think So—At Least Not for Someone Enchanted by the Apple Vision Pro.
Mark Zuckerberg, CEO of Meta, recently appeared on a well-known podcast, where he criticized Apple for failing to release an innovative product since the iPhone and for experiencing a decline in sales.
Appearing on a podcast originating from Apple and then proceeding to criticize the company might seem like a lighthearted joke, but I believe he was serious.
Why? Because he now wields a weapon—the AR glasses.
With the support of various institutions and a team of highly skilled professionals, he has likely achieved some notable milestones. Yet, as someone who has been a devoted Apple user since the PowerBook 540c, I still do not sense any real craftsmanship or identity in what he creates.
This sentiment extends to other IT giants that currently dominate the world—Meta, Amazon, Tesla, Microsoft, and Google.
Just by listing their names, readers of this text are likely already picturing their respective CEOs.
In the past, I wrote that Steve Jobs was not an artist.
What he excelled at was weaving together scattered ideas from across the world, expanding upon them, and linking them to the future.
The true creator was Jonathan Ive.
A minority of people may share this perspective with me.
However, when I see these IT moguls quickly shifting their corporate stances the moment the possibility of Trump returning to power emerges, I feel compelled to speak my mind.
The AR glasses, the cars—everything they create lacks a fundamental concept.
Call it ideology or, in lighter terms, identity.
It is true that Tim Cook and Apple’s current team have become more prone to letting slip details about upcoming products before their official release.
I have always loved music.
Artists shut themselves in a studio, cutting off the outside world, pouring their anger, hatred, joy, and sorrow into each note with intense focus.
It’s as if they are entrusting something to their music.
And when they finally release their album, they explain the emotions and thoughts behind its creation.
(Prince, whom I admire, rarely spoke about his work, so understanding his art required engaging with the final product itself.)
Until an album is complete and released, artists say nothing.
It was those artists who moved me to my core.
The faint glow of Apple’s innovation still remains within me.
Not even last year’s widely criticized "failure"—the Apple Vision Pro—could extinguish it.
In fact, it shines even brighter than the iPhone.
Because beyond its cutting-edge electronic components, I can sense a concept, an ideology.
Unfortunately, I will never feel the same from Meta’s AR glasses or Tesla’s cars.
I have written at length, but here is the key article:
**Tim Cook Donates Over $1.5 Million to Trump’s Inauguration Ceremony**
🔗 [Gigazine Article](gigazine.net/news/20250104-apple-ceo-tim-cook-donates-1-m...)
At first glance, this might make it seem like Tim Cook, like other tech CEOs, has sold his soul. But that is not the case.
While Cook personally donated to Trump, Apple itself did not follow the same path as other companies.
Apple refused to bow to Trump.
If asked what Apple’s ideology truly is, I would answer this:
**Apple is a group of individuals who believe in themselves.**
Steve Jobs, watching from heaven, is probably chuckling at this overly serious text I wrote.
A company that does not pander to Trump—
That is Apple. :)

8mm film of our honeymoon resurrected after decades.
youtu.be/zH-dG7bMeL4?si=yLF5_f1m-LhAVdPp
We found the 8mm film of our honeymoon for the first time in decades, and burned it onto a DVD.
On June 6, 1993, we got married, and headed straight to Nassau, Bahamas, via New York.
Our destination was the pink sand beach where the late Princess Diana went on her honeymoon.
If you're heading to the Bahamas, this might be a good reference.
The hotel we stayed at was the Ramada Hotel, which no longer exists.
My wife is showing us the hotel room.
But now you can see the beautiful scenery in real time.
When I played the DVD that arrived, it showed footage of our arrival in the Bahamas.
Please take a look if you'd like.
This time, we asked Fujifilm to make the DVD.
I'll post the link below.

### **Synopsis**
Kei Kitami, a student preparing for university entrance exams, meets Kaori Kamimura, an event companion six years his senior, through social media.
Kaori has come to Tokyo with a dream—to befriend famous artists.
To achieve this, she needs the influence of Ryo Osawa, a well-known radio producer.
During a live radio broadcast, Osawa speaks directly to Kaori:
*"I have a wife and child. But still, I want to see you."*
Meanwhile, Rika Sanjo, Kei’s classmate who secretly harbors feelings for him, is closely watching Kaori’s every move...

Main story
There are two reasons why a person faces the sea.
One to enjoy a slice of shine in the sea like children bubbling over in the beach.
The other to brush the dust of memory like an old man who misses old days staring at the shine
quietly.
Those lead to only one meaning though they do not seem to overlap. It’s a rebirth.
I face myself to change tomorrow a vague day into something certain.
That is the meaning of a rebirth.
I had a very sweet girlfriend when I was 18.
After she left I knew the meaning of gentleness for the first time and also a true pain of loss. After
she left # how many times did I depend too much on her # doubt her # envy her and keep on telling lies
until I realized it is love?
I wonder whether a nobody like me could have given something to her who was struggling in the
daily life in those days. Giving something is arrogant conceit. It is nothing but self-satisfaction.
I had been thinking about such a thing.
However I guess what she saw in me was because I had nothing. That‘s why she tried to see
something in me. Perhaps she found a slight possibility in me # a guy filled with ambiguous unstable
tomorrow. But I wasted days depending too much on her gentleness.
Now I finally can convey how I felt in those days when we met.

タイトル
“” A.I. アップルのアイデンティティについて””
www.flickr.com/photos/stealaway/54271473379/in/dateposted...
マークザッカーバーグ氏の批判に、アップルは耳を傾けるだろうか。
僕にはそう思えない。アップルヴィジョンプロに夢を見せられた僕には。
メタのマークザッカーバーグ氏は、有名なポッドキャストに出演し、アップルはアイフォン以来革新的な製品を発売せず、売り上げも落ちていると批判したようだ。
アップル発祥のポッドキャストに現れ、アップルを批判すると言うのは軽いジョークに思えるが、真剣に訴えたんだろうと僕は思う。
なぜなら、今の彼はARグラスという武器を手にしているからだ。
おそらく、さまざまな関係機関や優秀なスタッフが彼を支え、それなりの目標を達成したんだろうが、パワーブック５４０cから使い続けてきた僕のような古いアップルファンからしてみれば、まだ物作りのアイデンティを彼からはまったく感じない。
これは他の、現在世界を制覇しているIT企業らも含む。
メタ、アマゾン、テスラ。マイクロソフト。グーグル。
社名が並ぶだけで、このテキストを読まれている方は名前と顔をすでに浮かべているはずだ。
僕は以前、スティーブ・ジョブズはアーティストではないと書いた。
彼は、現世界に散らばったイメージを紡ぎ合わせ、それを膨らます。そして未来へリンクさせる。それが得意だっただけだ。
実際に創作していたのはジョナサンアイブだ。少数ながらも僕のような意見を持っている方もいるだろう。
しかし、先述したIT関連の面々が、トランプ氏に再び権力が戻るとなった途端に会社の方針を覆す様子を見ていると、僕は一言、どうしても意見したいのだ。
彼らが作ったARグラスや車などには、肝心な観念が欠けている。思想という重い言葉や、軽めのアイデンティティと言い換えてもいい。
確かに、ティムクック氏やアップルの現在のスタッフらは、発売前の商品に関して口を滑らせることが多くなった。
僕は、以前から書いているように音楽が大好きだ。
外界を断ち、アーティストらがスタジオにこもって、怒りや憎しみ、喜びや悲しみを一心不乱になって一音に吹き込む。何かを託すと言ってもいい。
そして、完成したアルバムを発表し、どんな思いを込めて制作したのかを語る。（僕が好きなプリンスはほとんど語らなかったので、完成された作品を理解する必要があった）
アルバムが完成し、発表するまで、彼らはひとことも語らない。
僕の胸を震わせたのは、そんなアーティストらだった。
僕の中に淡く灯っているアップルの革新性は、いまでも消えていない。
それは昨年、大失敗だと批判されたアップルヴィジョンプロでさえも消すことはできない。むしろ、アイフォン以上の強烈な光を放っている。
ただの斬新な電化製品ではなく、細かな電気部品の向こうに観念や思想を感じるからだ。
残念ながら、メタのARグラスやテスラの車に、僕がその観念や思想を感じることは今後もないだろう。
長々と書いてきたが、結論は以下の記事だ。
1.5億円超をAppleのティム・クックCEOがトランプの大統領就任式に寄付
gigazine.net/news/20250104-apple-ceo-tim-cook-donates-1-m...
一読すると、ティムクック氏も他のIT会社同様、魂を売ったのかと思われるがそうではない。
ティムクック氏は個人的にトランプ氏へ献金をするが、アップル社だけは他社と同じようには献金していない。
アップルは、トランプ氏になびかなかったのだ。
アップル社の観念や思想とは、具体的に何かと訊かれたら、僕はこう答える。
アップルとは、自分自身を信じる人間が集まっているグループだ。
たぶん、天国のスティーブ・ジョブズは、僕がクソ真面目に書いたテキストを、鼻で笑っていることだろう。
トランプ氏に媚びない会社。
それがAppleさ。:)

嬉しい記事を読んだ後で。

新婚旅行の8mmフィルムを数十年ぶりに復活😃
youtu.be/zH-dG7bMeL4?si=yLF5_f1m-LhAVdPp
新婚旅行の8mmフィルムが数十年ぶりに出てきて、DVDに焼きました。
１９９３年６月６日、僕らは結婚し、そのままニューヨークを経由して、バハマのナッソーへ向かいました。
目的地は、亡くなられたダイアナ妃が新婚旅行へ向かったピンクサンドビーチです。
もしもこれからバハマへ向かうならば、参考に見てもよいかもしれません。
泊まったホテルは、今はもうないラマダホテル。
妻がホテルの部屋を紹介しています。
でも、今はリアルタイムで美しい景色が見られますね。
届いたDVDを再生したら、バハマに到着したところからの映像でした。
もしもよかったら見てください。
今回、DVD化を依頼した場所は、富士フィルムさんです。
下にリンクを貼っておきます。

このロットナンバーは、眠っていたレオナルドダヴィンチの作品がオークションにかけらた際に付されたものです。
作品にはサインなどがいっさい記されていなかったため、彼の作品だと断定できませんでした。
しかし、様々な鑑定の結果、陽の光を浴びました。
誰にも気づかれない作品。肩書がなくとも静かに語りかける作品。

あらすじ
大学を目指している北見ケイは、SNS上で、6歳年上のイベントコンパニオン、上村香織に出会う。
上京してきた香織の夢は、有名なアーティストの友達になるためだ。
そのためにはラジオ局のプロデューサー、大沢亮の存在が必要だった。
大沢は、ラジオの生放送中、香織へ語りかける。
「僕には妻子がある。しかし、僕は君に会いたいと思っている」
ケイの同級生で、彼を想っている三條里香は、香織の動向を探っていた。。。。。
本編
人が海へ向かう理由には、二つある。
ひとつは、波打ち際ではしゃぐ子供のように、今の瞬間の海の輝きを楽しむこと。
もうひとつは、その輝きを静かに見据えて、過ぎ去った日々を懐かしむ老人のように記憶の埃を払うこと。
二つは重なり合わないようではあるけれども、たったひとつの意味しか生まない。
再生だ。
明日っていう、曖昧な日を確実なものへと変えてゆくために、自分の存在に向き合う。
それが再生の意味だ。
十八歳だった僕には大切な人がいた。

"It is well to give when asked, but it is better to give unasked,
through understanding;
And to the open-handed the search for one
who shall receive is joy greater than giving."
-Kahlil Gibran
Another evening when I forgot a sketchbook and drawing implement and resorted to borrowing a pen to draw on a napkin. The Pizza Express restaurant is in the Golden Cross shopping area, housed in a 17th century or earlier timber frame building with wall paintings and oriel windows, now a pizza restaurant.

Thank you for any group invites which I'd be glad to accept. However, if I can't check the content of such groups ("This group is not available to you") I'd rather not add any of my photos. Thanks for your understanding.
Understanding Guilt
Scriptures: John 8:1-11
Guilt over doing something that violates the conscience is a normal emotion. However, living under a cloud of remorse for no discernible reason is not. The Lord designed feelings of culpability and regret to serve as a reminder that a person has done wrong and needs to repent. But Satan twists those emotions to imprison men and women: those living in shame are uncertain of God's love and often lack self-confidence. Good guilt--the Lord's effective tool for prompting repentance--is a gift that helps us find the right path. However, the Devil encourages false guilt, which involves taking responsibility for things outside our control and then suffering self-condemnation for not changing the outcome. This unhealthy type of guilt is also a widespread problem for those in legalistic churches or lifestyles--certain behaviors or thoughts are labeled as wrong, and then people feel ashamed for doing or thinking those things. Self-condemnation stunts a relationship with Jesus. Instead of enjoying the peace of God, people who are trapped by shame fear His rejection and feel driven to prove their worth. Trust is nearly impossible because they are waiting for God's judgment to rain down. Their guilt even colors how they see themselves: rather than saying, "My action is wrong," they say, "I am bad." Jesus did not come to accuse or condemn us. Christ restored our souls and made us righteous before God so that our guilt is removed. If our Savior forgave the woman caught in an adulterous relationship, just imagine how ready He is to take your shame away too (John 8:11).
