National Holocaust Remembrance Day 2022, Jan 30.
'Nooit Meer Auschwitz', organized by the 'Nederlands Auschwitz Comité'.
'Auschwitz Never Again'
The United Nations General Assembly designated January 27 the anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz-Birkenau as International Holocaust Remembrance Day.
On this annual day of commemoration, the UN urges every member state to honor the six million Jewish victims of the Holocaust and millions of other victims of Nazism and to develop educational programs to help prvent future genocides.
It is not that often one gets to see a Long Eared Owl, let alone five roosting together on a deciduous tree. Well, the other day a few of us had the opportunity to witness this spectacle. I wondered why a group of five birds of prey staying so close to each other. Then I read that during fall migration and winter months the Long Eared Owls prefer to roost together in large numbers, often close to 100. Of course when nesting time comes it will be a different story. Four of the owls huddled together, the fifth one was slightly below them. I had hard time capturing them all in one photo through the branches and in fading light. Look at the other two photos for a better view of these owls. These photos are more for the uniqueness of the situation than the quality. Downsview Park, Toronto
One of the five famous Assembly Halls Hoi An, Fukien Assembly Hall was erected around 1690 to function as a place for the Chinese ethnic group from Fukien, China to socialize and worship.
Fujian (Phuc Kien) Assembly Hall was built around 1690 and functions as a traditional assembly hall for the Chinese ethnic group from Fujian, China to socialise, but later was transformed into a temple dedicated to their deity named Thien Hau – the goddess of sea who protects sailors from danger. As told by the preceding generations, the Chinese in Hoi An decided to build that temple to worship the statue of the goddess which was found on Hoi An Beach in 1697. Probably the most prominent amongst 5 Assembly Halls in the town, today Fujian Assembly Hall is located in 46 Tran Phu St.

A metal sculpture of a seamstress by local artist Edgardo Carmona Vergara is on Plaza de San Pedro Claver in Cartagena, Colombia. Carmona uses a technique called "Steel Assembly" consisting of the elaboration of multiple parts.
The roof of the Welsh National Assembly building in Cardiff. The building itself is a fantastic mixture of glass, steel, slate and wood.

A large thermal hotel which was mostly in great condition. We had to chase out several kids who were in the middle of smashing one of the dining halls up.

1966 by Jess (American, 1923-2004)
Born Burgess Collins, Jess had worked as an engineer on the Manhattan Project. This multimedia work is part of "Plugged In: Art and Electric Light" currently at the Norton Simon Museum in Pasadena, California. My wife and I went there this past Friday for a mental health break while we are not able to return to our home in Altadena due to the Eaton Fire.

Dah Wife thought it looked like the little guy was on the surface of the moon. Moths do indeed like the moon, but I seriously doubt any have ever been there.
FYI - This little guy (a little over a half inch wing tip-to-tip) was so small that the tiny micro bubbles on the painted surface look like tiny craters on the moon. I also like how tiny lepidopterains make their scales look sooo big that they almost look like shingles!

One knob is missing. This door was under the Dexter mausoleum in Spring Grove Cemetery, Cincinnati, OH
Whew it arrived just in time. I didn't think it was going to get here before the end of the year. I thought it would have been bigger. It is suppose to last the whole 365 days but this looks like it'll only last 52 weeks. But looking at the state this year is ending in there's not really much other option.
Now let's see. Instructions...instructions...where are the...oh here they are. "Clean your 2017 thoroughly so as no cross contamination". Well...bugger that. 2017 is so shite covered I'm just going to put down some newspaper and bin bags and we'll pave over it with the new year and pretend it didn't happen.
Next.
"Prepare the area with Hogmanay". Well that appears to be in full swing. The people on the telly are having some BBC sanctioned fun. They look like they're enjoying themselves but it doesn't seem to have reached their faces yet and the other channels are showing....oooh....American Werewolf in London...aww it's already started. Ah maybe next year,
Next year. That'll be in 23 minutes. Maybe less now. Yes, now it's 22 minutes. That was quick. A little too quick. Makes me wonder if the year really has been a standard however many minutes a year has. Is it 14? More? 14 and a half? Fine, we'll say everything ran as normal.
But I'm keeping my eye on you 2018
The Assembly Rooms opened on 11 January 1787 for the Caledonian Hunt Ball. The building was funded by public subscription, costing over £6,000. The prominent site at the centre of George Street, in the centre of the recently established New Town, was donated by the town council. The Assembly Rooms was designed by John Henderson, a local architect, who died young shortly after the building was completed.
The building was extended several times during the 19th century. In 1818 a portico was added by William Burn. Burn and his partner David Bryce designed the Music Hall in 1843. Finally, in 1907, new side wings were completed to designs by Robert Rowand Anderson and Balfour Paul.
The building is now also used as an arts venue and for public events

Although the Jamestown Roundhouse is the location where most locomotive servicing activities are performed, there are activities which just require more dedicated space. The final assembly phase of a locomotive restoration is one such activity and for that, Railtown has a dedicated restoration shop that the public usually does not get to see. This spacious building is called the Tri-Dam Shop. Although it lacks an overhead crane, it houses the park's machine shop and is adjacent to the parts warehouse, making it an ideal location to efficiently perform work on a locomotive project, without disturbing normal railroad operations. In the shop on this day in July of 2017, we see Sierra Consolidation #28, finally going back together after 4 years of tear-down, inspection, and repair. Although there were still issues left to discover, that would delay her first run for a couple of more years, she was beginning to look like a locomotive again when I visited. As noted, this space is normally off limits to the public, but on this particular day I was fortunate to be given the "cook's tour" by none other than George Sapp, who was the Chief Mechanical Officer at Railtown at the time, and person most responsible for the restorations of both Sierra #3 and her stablemate seen here.
