Airmen from the 52nd Civil Engineer Squadron, in coordination with specialists from Ramstein Air Base, Germany, replaced aircraft arresting systems on the flightline at Spangdahlem Air Base, Germany, Oct. 28-30, 2016. The newly installed system allows for better resistance of slowing down aircraft on the flightline during emergencies. An F-16 Fighting Falcon from the 480th Fighter Squadron tested the new tape by taxiing at a speed of 90 knots before being slowed down. (U.S. Air Force photo by Staff Sgt. Joe W. McFadden)

More than 100 education professionals representing 45 school districts — some as far away as Alaska — were on hand recruiting the soon-to-be graduates. bloomu.edu/coe #HuskyUnleashed
It was my good friend & nicest man in Bristol's Dan's wedding, to the lovely Claire, so I took some snaps throughout the day. These are a few of my favourites.
Cape Reinga the northwestern most tip of the Aupouri Peninsula, at the northern end of the North Island of New Zealand. Day six of our trip up north, March 2012, NZ.
Cape Reinga is generally considered the separation marker between the Tasman Sea to the west and the Pacific Ocean to the east. From the lighthouse it is possible to watch the tidal race, as the two seas clash to create unsettled waters just off the coast. The Māori refer to this as the meeting of Te Moana-a-Rehua, 'the sea of Rehua' with Te Tai-o-Whitirea, 'the sea of Whitirea', Rehua and Whitirea being a male and a female respectively.
The cape is often mistakenly thought of as being the northernmost point of the North Island, and thus, of mainland New Zealand. However, North Cape's Surville Cliffs, 30 km east of Cape Reinga, are slightly further north. Another headland just to the west of Cape Reinga is Cape Maria van Diemen, which was discovered and named by the Dutch explorer Abel Tasman during his journey in 1642 and thought of by him to be the northernmost point of the newly-discovered country he named 'Staten Landt'.
According to mythology, the spirits of the dead travel to Cape Reinga on their journey to the afterlife to leap off the headland and climb the roots of the 800 year old tree and descend to the underworld to return to their traditional homeland of Hawaiki, using the Te Ara Wairua, the 'Spirits' pathway'. At Cape Reinga they depart the mainland. They turn briefly at the Three Kings Islands for one last look back towards the land, then continue on their journey.
A spring in the hillside, Te Waiora-a-Tāne (the 'Living waters of Tāne'), also played an important role in Māori ceremonial burials, representing a spiritual cleansing of the spirits, with water of the same name used in burial rites all over New Zealand. This significance lasted until the local population mostly converted to Christianity, and the spring was capped with a reservoir, with little protest from the mostly converted population of the area. However, the spring soon disappeared and only reappeared at the bottom of the cliff, making the reservoir useless.
