Gatha Odissi - from the temple to the stage
History is not scripted; it gets created over the ages. It transforms itself according to the tides of life and times. Therefore, from the point of view of the present, how does one view the entire panorama of Odissi Dance, which has traveled through an arduous journey of nearly two thousand years?
After the sunrise, comes the dark hour of the sunset. But the rhythmic foot falls of Odissi dance, however, continue to reverberate from within the dark corridors of history.
Around the middle of Ninteenth century a new resolve paves the way for the resurrection of the flagging traditions of Odissi Dance. The danseuse damsels break out of their stony incarnation from temple-walls and metamorphose into life. In this hour of revival, the great Gurus of our times create a whole new grammar of Odissi. The genesis of Mangalacharan, Pallavi, Sthayi, Abhinaya and Moksha, which form the superstructures of Odissi, spring up from the sub-structures of the allied art forms and folk forms of Odisha such as Mahari, Gotipua, Sakhi Nata, Raasa and Leela.
Through brief narrations and symbolic images Odisha Dance Academy spins the story of transformation and resurgence of Odissi Dance spanning from the Jagannath Temple of Puri right up to the contemporary stage.

Over the past two decades, our women's life expectancy has improved to about 80 years. They're increasingly active in business ventures through various credit financing schemes. …We are also making efforts to protect women's rights through legislation and plans of action, which we will continue to review when necessary. Regionally, we're part of the commission on promoting and protecting the rights of women and children. … Our continued effort to fulfill our international responsibilities are shown by our commitment to the [Millennium Development Goals] and [Sustainable Development Goals] as well as Convention on Eliminating all Forms of Discrimination against Women. … I'm pleased to reaffirm our commitment towards implementing the objectives of the Beijing Declaration and Platform for Action."

On August 12th, 2002, the Delaware Army National Guard held a sendoff ceremony at Fort Du Pont in Delaware City for the 153rd Military Police Company. The 153rd began a 270-day activation and deployment in support of Operation Desert Spring in Saudi Arabia.
Family, friends, and fellow soldiers and airmen of the Delaware National Guard came out as early as 7 a.m. to see the MPs off to their mobilization station at Fort Dix, NJ. The 153rd will be at Fort Dix for two weeks and arrive in Saudi Arabia by the end of August.
Also present to honor those deploying were Gov. Ruth Ann Minner, U. S. Sen. Joseph Biden, U. S. Sen. Thomas Carper, and U. S. Congressman Michael Castle.
144 members of the 153rd Military Police Company are being deployed to Eskan Village, near the Saudi capitol of Riyadh, to provide security for the installation and the forward-deployed troops we have stationed there.
One soldier said of the deployment, “It will be a good training opportunity for us, it shows support for the country, and it gives soldiers the experience and chance to see more facets of the military. It builds morale… We all have each other’s back.”
The 153rd MP Company, which is only six years old, was mobilized under a Presidential Select Reserve Callup, authorized by President Bush. The company was notified in early May and officially went on active duty August 9th.
Lt. Col. Perry McGinnis, Commander of the 2nd Battalion, 72nd Troop Command, hosted the ceremony and wished his soldiers well.
The Adjutant General, Maj. Gen. Frank Vavala, addressed the 153rd Military Police Company reverently for the last time before sending his troops overseas. “We are all proud of your commitment and sense of duty… To freedom, to the country, and to the state,” he assured them. He spoke to the soldiers of the validity of their mission and reaffirmed his great appreciation. He wished them well. “God’s speed 153rd. I salute you.”
Gov. Minner thanked the soldiers for their efforts to ‘support our world’. In reference to their active-duty counterparts, she declared, “They need you. We need you. As a country, we must be prepared to deploy to anywhere on the globe. Part of that… is you.”
Gov. Minner spoke of the soldiers confidently. “Think of the young people looking up to you as the heroes of their future. You’re one of us and we are proud of you.”
“God bless you. God keep you and your families. Thank You. Return safely,” she said as she bid them farewell.
During the ceremony, she also signed two new bills into law that will affect former, current and future members of the Delaware National Guard. The bills were sponsored by Sen. Nancy Cook and Rep. Nancy Wagner. Sen. Cook was on hand to witness the signing.
The first, Senate Bill #272, ensures the state will make up the difference between military and civilian pay, if negative, for state employees who are mobilized and deployed in support of military contingency operations. The 153rd deployed 19 soldiers who are state employees.
The second, Senate Bill #439, allows state retirees to return to work temporarily to fill in for deployed soldiers; without their (retiree) pension or benefits being affected.
Sen. Biden also addressed the 153rd and openly acknowledged to the soldiers, “We couldn’t engage in the war on terror without you.” He thanked the families for their ‘service’ also. “You’re being asked to do much more than the rest of your fellow Delawareans.”
Sen. Carper lent recognition to the changing missions of the Army’s reserve components by confirming that, “We rely more than ever on the Guard and Reserves.” He went on to quote Winston Churchill: To be a reservist is to be twice a citizen. He thanked the soldiers for their commitment ‘to freedom, to this country, and to this state.’
Congressman Castle referred to the soldiers as ‘ready and capable’. The soldiers were commended for being ‘highly trained and prepared to represent Delaware’. He encouraged the soldiers to enjoy their experiences.
“America will be extraordinarily well-served.”
As the sendoff neared an end, Col Henry McCann, Commander, 72nd Troop Command, affirmed, “I am proud of each and every one of you. You will do your duty.”
Soldiers were given an extra 10 minutes after the ceremony ended to say their final ‘goodbyes’ before loading the buses that would take them to their mobilization station.
Even with all of the support and camaraderie, the final minutes spent with loved ones were challenging.
Soldiers tried to pacify their families with long embraces and words of strength, promise, and encouragement.
“You’ll be okay. It’s two times OBC (Officer Basic Course),” 2nd Lt. Tom Quek said to his wife to help calm her. Before heading off, he made a simple request of his son, Thomas. “Learn your ABC’s while I’m gone, okay?”
“She’s our hero,” Maj. William Rhoades of Headquarters, State Area Command said of his daughter, Spec. Melissa Rhoades. “I’m crying for her.”
Excited about the opportunity to serve, Spec. Allison Rogers posed candidly with his father and grandfather. His grandfather, Paul K. Satrape, is a WWII veteran who is proud to see Rogers serve.
With the degree of support displayed at this sendoff, deployed soldiers are able to serve proudly and unselfishly as they protect the freedom of those that they leave behind.

Namibia: Deputy Prime Minister Netumbo Nandi-Ndaitwah
"The Beijing Platform for Action remains a powerful guide and source of inspiration to all of us. Since independence, Namibia has paid special attention to women’s empowerment and gender equality…it is an integral part of our Constitution…Significant targets…have been met…. We've increased the number of girls in primary and secondary schools…and the [share] of women in the National Assembly from 24 per cent in 2009 to 46 per cent in 2015…. We still face challenges [that] need to be addressed... Namibia commits herself to women’s empowerment and ensuring that women's rights are protected, and that women have access to services such as education, health and employment, among others. We also commit ourselves to fight gender-based violence…[and] to make sure women as agents of peace play their role both in the community and national level. We will continue to have our women in uniform to serve in UN peacekeeping. We commit ourselves to continue to...fully embrace the critical role women play in society. Finally, gender equality and women’s empowerment [are] prerequisites for sustainable development. Therefore Namibia commits herself to ensure equality between men and women."

The Avison Ensemble is delighted to have welcomed Benjamin Zander to present a series of music workshops in Newcastle for musicians and listeners as part of our ongoing commitment to music learning in the North East. These workshops were held from 13th to 16th August 2012 in Newcastle University’s King’s Hall; they were open to amateur and professional musicians of all ages and to listeners, including those with no previous experience of classical music.
These workshops were transformative and inspirational for the musicians participating as they discovered new possibilities in interpretation, expression and performance. Ben explored the ‘hidden language’ of music and the impact of its use on both performers and listeners. However, these were not technical master classes – they were full of surprises and often emotional experiences which transformed the audience and players’ outlook on the relationship of music to life.
The Avison Ensemble is the outstanding period instrument orchestra based in Newcastle upon Tyne, which plays and popularises the music of Charles Avison (1709-1770) and other English classical composers of the Baroque period, such as Garth, Arne and Herschel. The Ensemble also performs Purcell, Handel, Vivaldi, Corelli, Geminiani, Pergolesi, Teleman, Rameau, Bach, Mozart, Haydn and Beethoven. The Ensemble is strongly committed to music learning in North East England and has an active education programme and its own annual Young Musicians’ Awards competition.
Ben Zander is the acclaimed conductor of the Boston Philharmonic Orchestra and a passionate musician and speaker of world renown. He has collaborated in performances with many of the world’s greatest musicians, amongst whom have been Rostropovich, Oscar Shumsky, Vladimir Ashkenazy, Martha Argerich, Yo-Yo Ma, and Jaqueline Du Pré.
Ben’s work with young people and youth orchestras is world renowned and he has recently been awarded the Youth Orchestra of the Americas 10th anniversary award for his invaluable contribution to the youth symphony movement across the Americas. He has recently formed the Boston Philharmonic Youth Orchestra to “… shape the musical leadership of tomorrow”.
Ben is one of the most sought-after speakers in the world. Bringing his insights as the conductor of major symphony orchestras to business leaders involved in transformation and change, Ben has become a much sought-after speaker to major organizations all over the world including Shell, IBM, Arthur Andersen, KPMG, Sprint, NASA and the US Army.

I am terrible at committing myself to keep in communication with friends - I am so used to moving on and losing touch, since I am very independent. And my best friend lives in Europe, which makes it harder. Keeping in regular communication with those I care about is a huge commitment for me, but a necessary part of not losing connection with people in general. I am reminded of this every morning that I am woken up early by our old Russian neighbor who tries to keep in contact with us - he is much better at picking up that phone and dialing than I am......

Elmwoodstock - in the grounds of Elmwood College in Cupar, Fife had all the ingredients. Facilities, known bands but um... they played to around 250 people. The atmosphere was less exciting than Craggy Island Fair and where this was taken from, it wasn't exactly loud.
Bands included The Hazey Janes, The Commitments, Wolfstone, Sergeant, Idlewild.

On Thursday afternoon, May 30, 2019, demolition took place of the last of six buildings being removed to make way for the construction of the new Maswik South lodging.
Demolition was the first stage in Xanterra South Rim, L.L.C.'s commitment to rebuild the Maswik South lodging complex and construct new roads in the vicinity. The original buildings were constructed in 1971 and had exceeded their expected useful life. The project to replace them will cost approximately $30 million. Four new ADA compliant buildings will be built in the existing site footprint along with road, pedestrian, and other site improvements. The 90 basic rooms will be replaced with 120 mid-scale rooms, 30 of which will have kitchenettes (a room type not currently available in the park).
The purpose of the project is to reduce conflicts between pedestrians and vehicles in the Maswik South area and provide sustainable lodging within the existing site footprint that meets visitor needs and expectations. Other existing infrastructure at Maswik South, such as sidewalks and roads, are also aging, in poor condition, or not compliant with current laws, codes and regulations, including the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) of 1990.
In October 2018, the National Park Service (NPS) completed an Environmental Assessment (EA) for the Maswik South rebuild and new road construction project. This EA, in accordance with the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA), evaluated alternatives and analyzed the impacts that would likely result from implementing the alternatives. Public comments received during a 30-day public comment period were used in preparation of the Finding Of No Significant Impact (FONSI). The FONSI was signed by Kate Hammond, Acting Regional Director for the Intermountain Region of the NPS on February 14, 2019.

Without question, they demonstrate that one person can make a difference in the lives of others.”
More than 200 people, including Renee Beaman, director of DHSS' Division of State Service Centers, which oversees the awards, and Georgeanna Windley, Chair of the Governor’s Commission on Community and Volunteer Service, joined the Governor in honoring the young volunteers for their outstanding service, community impact and inspiration to others.

A.I. du Pont Middle School – Walk in the Kings Footsteps
Education
Nominator: Michele Fidance
When posed with the question “What will I do to walk in the footsteps of Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.?” the student body of A.I. du Pont Middle School in Wilmington decided to answer the question literally. A small group of students, led by Jobs for Delaware Graduates (JDG) instructors, were given the project of researching the speeches of Dr. King in order to choose quotes that meant something to them. The students then inscribed their selected quote on a cut-out of a footprint, which was then affixed to the wall in the cafeteria as a means to inspire their fellow students. Once students beyond the JDG classes saw the footprints, they wanted to participate as well. The project helped to raise awareness among students of Dr. King’s life, teaching and legacy, and how it translates into community action and service.

President Kim admired Jim and Susan Wright's commitment to diversity during their time at Dartmouth.
"Today, we’re honoring the almost unthinkably massive body of work around the issues of diversity and justice of Jim and Susan Wright. It’s quite safe to say that the house that we occupy today, the diverse, multi-racial, beautiful, wonderful house - if anyone has contributed to the building of this house, if anyone has actually built this house, we have to really say that it was Jim Wright over his 40 years, in so many different roles. He was professor of history, dean of the faculty of arts and science, provost, and president. And in those 40 years, Jim made diversity an absolutely top issue.” - Jim Yong Kim

Finally getting around to posting something... I've been struggling to find time to get many shots recently, due to commitments and short daylight hours. Therefore I've had a few odd shots pile up which I plan on putting up over the christmas period.

Commitment on the boat lift at Macduff Shipyards in Buckie. Unusual to get a Lowestoft boat this far north. More likely that it has been bought locally and it's in the yard for some work. May or may not be renamed but sure to get a new registration.

Thai police cadets embarked on the first-ever training on ending violence against women and girls to increase their knowledge on the nature, extent, and seriousness on crimes perpetrated against women and show commitment as change agent towards ending the global pandemic.
Following the advocacy to end violence against women supported by Her Royal Highness Princess Bajrakitiyabha, UN Women Goodwill Ambassador, the Office of the Attorney General and the United Nations Entity for Gender Equality and the Empowerment of Women (UN Women) have joined hands with the Police Cadet Academy in organizing the Training Workshop: New Generation to End Violence against Women for the 285 third-year Police Cadet students from today and will call for 80 volunteering students to continue with the training for another two days. The training curriculum includes role of police in justice system, police as change agent, and attitude and behavioral change. The workshop is part of Thailand’s commitment to contribute to the UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon UNiTE Campaign to End Violence against Women.
Experiences worldwide have shown that recruitment of women police officers and resourcing of gender desks must be part of a broader strategy to train and incentivize all police to adequately respond to women’s needs. Women being present in justice services can help to enhance accountability and create a system that is responsible to women.
In Thailand, a National Survey in 2009 found that 365,230 ever-married women faced physical violence from intimate partners, especially young women aged 15-19 years. But the number of ever-partnered women facing violence against women remains unknown. Under-reporting of crimes against women is a serious problem in all regions.
