This piece was created at Woodhall Dean, where the gentle breeze played across the water’s surface, transforming the reflection of trees into soft, shifting bands of light and shadow. I’m always fascinated by how a simple gust can turn the familiar into something mysterious

TRAVIS CHILDERS (UN)NATURAL
Staplerscape, stapler, model material, foam, glue, 3" x 7" x 2", 2010
(UN) NATURAL, Travis
Childers' exhibition of sculpture and installation examines the
meaning of "nature" and how humans manipulate the natural world to
create fabricated environments. In Staplerscape, the artist
covers a stapler with a miniature landscape and examines the idea of
nature taking something back from man. He questions what would happen
if people disappeared from the earth, how soon would nature take
over? As in all of Childers' work, Staplerscape illuminates
an important, current issue through a clever re-purposing of
materials: Pressing on the stapler would destroy a fragile landscape
while posing a larger question: How do everyday actions impact the
global environment?

ELLEN CORNETT MENAGERIE
The Happy Marriage, pastel on paper, 34" x 26" , 2010
MENAGERIE, Ellen Cornett's series of pastel paintings, explores
contemporary social dilemmas through the world of fairy tales and
animals. Using her impressive drawing facility, the artist
juxtaposes vivid pastel paintings with unsettling content. One of
ten works on exhibit, The Happy Marriage, features two
chickens in a reversal of the usual barnyard pecking order. With
her claws extended, a hen stands on a rooster's back while he
appears bewildered. Cornett is deliberately vague about the meaning
of this work: Is the rooster a hen-pecked husband or is the hen-wife
hanging on for dear life? Either way, it's a wry commentary on
the modern marriage as a complicated balancing act.

MATT RAVENSTAHL GUILT
Slave Block (stills), digital video, 5 minutes, 2010
Matt Raventstahl's GUILT uses video and sculpture to expose
the internal experience of racism and blaming others. Slave
Block documents the artist wielding a sledgehammer as he attempts
to smash a marble replica of a slave auction block. The video
addresses both the punishing burden of slave labor and the artist's
attempt to free himself from white guilt. In a related installation,
Untitled, the remnants of the marble block have been gathered
into a pile.
Ravenstahl used the same stones in his second video, Throwing
Stones, which explores how guilt often leads to victimization.
The video documents the artist casting stones directly at the viewer.
As the video progresses, a Plexiglas wall separating the artist from
the viewer gradually scars, taking the focus of the camera from
the perpetrator to the wounds.

I'm taking suggestions for this one. I was going with Rainbow Bright, but I think there is a better name out there!
Mingle Media TV and our Red Carpet Report host Rachel Greninger were invited to come out and experience first hand the Halloween Dark Harbors experience at the “haunted” Queen Mary in Long Beach. Our team got to experience first-hand all of the different mazes, entertainment and ghoulish exhibits set up to scare the visitors brave enough to come out and test their spook meter.
How we rated this attraction: We’ve experienced the Universal Studios Halloween Horror Nights and Knott's Berry “Scary Farm” events and give Dark Harbors at the Queen Mary two thumbs up and recommend that you get your tickets online before they’re sold out for a frightening good time.

1. Product Description
The Current Conditions Page is the first page that displays during the Local Forecast. It shows in every Local Forecast. It is driven by the primary and alternate sites of the STAR 4000. It displays the current weather conditions for that location. It is not forecast data, nor is it related to where the forecast comes from.
2. Data Information and Expiration Rules
Data for these pages is sent at least hourly (we call it HO for Hourly Observation data), usually within 10 minutes either before or after the top of the hour. The primary site will display until for whatever reason, the data expires. Then, the alternate site will display until its data expires. If both the primary and alternate data has expired, the page will display the “No Report Available” label. The expiration time for HO data is 2 ½ hours. HO data is considered tabular data. Most weather sites report 24 hours, however there are some out there that report fewer than 24 hours. We have a rule when assigning primary and alternate sites that the alternate site has to report 24 hours so a STAR 4000 will not go without data. There are two types of observation sites, manned and automated. Manned observation reports are compiled and sent by a person. Automated observation reports are compiled and sent by a computer and they almost always report 24 hours. There are two types of automated observations, ASOS (Automated Surface Observation System) and AWOS (Automated Weather Observation System). ASOS observations are complete observations, meaning they report every weather parameter shown on the Current Conditions page seen above. AWOS observations do not report weather (rain, snow, sunny, etc), therefore no weather icon and text modifier (the icon with a sun with clouds and the “Partly Cloudy” text modifier seen above) will display.
3. Problem Information
If the “No Report Available” label is showing it is time to get suspicious about the HO data. It is possible to have data expired for the two stations and not have a widespread HO data problem. Check the Local Observations table in the next section.

I had nothing to do , so I played with my A710 IS set on a tripod with a several light bulb source to kill my boredom i guess.
Current keeper since 2001.
I nearly missed this one, were I not out drinking with a Corsa fan I'd have perhaps not tried - However, worth it now, seeing it's had the same keeper for almost 24 years. Around 54k covered.
There's still a few Corsa Bs around here, a 'W' one I should capture but I've not had the opportunity to yet.
Currently the weather in Kuwait is CRAZY!
You could have 17 seasons in 6 minutes!
Dusty, Rainy, Humid, Dry, Windy, Hot, Cold, Dusty again, then clear!
Locally we call that "Sarrayat" season...It usually begin in March and ends in April :+

Final model of a new Pullen Art Center, to be located on the site of the current buidling in Pullen Park, Raleigh, NC.
Designed for my junior year architectural studio at the College of Design.
The Olympic Bell was commissioned and cast for the 2012 London Olympic Games, and is the largest harmonically-tuned bell in the world. Cast in bronze bell metal, it is 2 metres (6 ft 7 in) high with a diameter of 3.34 metres (10 ft 11 in), and weighs 22 long tons 18 cwt 3 qr 13 lb (51,393 lb or 23.311 t). The bell is now displayed in the Olympic Park.
In September 2011 the Whitechapel Bell Foundry, a few miles from the Olympic Stadium, was commissioned to make the bell. The Foundry completed its design, profile, lettering and tuning. However, it was no longer able to cast such a large bell (its furnace capacity is 8 long tons (8.1 tonnes), as the large Victorian era bells had gone out of fashion), and so subcontracted casting to Royal Eijsbouts of the Netherlands. There was some controversy over using a non-British firm, as Taylor’s Bell Foundry in Loughborough had also tendered to cast the bell. The hammer mechanism and hanging framework were made by other firms and twenty companies in three countries were eventually involved with its production. The bell was installed and tested in the stadium at midnight on 1 June 2012. It was designed to be as large as possible but needed to fit through the athletes’ tunnel; when it arrived there were only a few inches to spare.
The bell is the second heaviest in Europe, after St Petersglocke in Cologne Cathedral and the largest harmonically tuned bell in the world. Its main note (in campanology, its 'hum tone') is a B note, and so it has the lowest tone in the world.
The bell is inscribed with "London 2012" and a line from Caliban's speech in The Tempest: "Be not afeard, the isle is full of noises", which featured in the Olympics opening ceremony spoken by Kenneth Branagh. The other side bears the legend "Whitechapel" and the Foundry's coat of arms.
The bell is not currently rung due to concerns that doing so would disturb nearby residents, possibly making it the largest ornamental bell in the world.
There is enough local noise, from all the building work going on in the park, to easily drown out anything the bell could do! This bell is shamefully neglected - it should at least be rung at noon every day, if nothing else.
We currently have an odd number (11) of safe numbers revealed, not counting the one in the rightmost column. Remember that there must be an even number of safe numbers in column 1 to fulfill 3’s clue, so boxes 7 and 13 cannot change the evenness/oddness of the number of safe numbers.
Suppose the rightmost column contained an odd number of safe numbers. Then we would have an even number of safe numbers, with only 20 and 34 as locations left to place safe numbers. 22’s clue tells us that the murderer is in the rightmost column if the rightmost column contains and odd number of safe numbers. Therefore, 20 could not be the murderer, so it would have to be safe (8’s clue tells us it cannot be a victim, and we have already determined that it is not an accomplice). Then we would have an odd number of safe numbers, with only 34 left as a potential safe number. Since 14 tells us that the number of safe numbers is even, 34 would have to be safe.
Now instead suppose that there are an even number of safe numbers in the rightmost column. Then 22’s clue tells us that the rightmost column does not contain the murderer, so the murderer would have to be 20 (from 35’s clue, it is the only possible number left). Then we would have an odd number of safe numbers, with only 34 to be filled in. Therefore, 34 would have to be safe.
Either way, 34 is guaranteed to be safe.
in his first solo exhibition in spain, artist petrit halilaj has transformed madrid’s palacio de cristal into a giant nest of massive flowers. the artist has connected the temporary installation with the city’s retiro park by opening windows, setting up structures, and placing feeding areas to attract the birds and other creatures inhabiting or passing through the park. ‘to a raven and the hurricanes which bring back smells of humans in love from unknown places’ is the first show inaugurated by the museo reina sofía since its closure due to the COVID-19 pandemic, which interrupted the montage of the exhibition.
Palacio de Cristal del Retiro
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Palacio de Cristal
The Palacio de Cristal ("Glass Palace") is a conservatory located in Madrid's Buen Retiro Park. It was built in 1887 on the occasion of the Exposition of the Philippines, held in the same year, then a Spanish colonial possession. The architect was Ricardo Velázquez Bosco.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parque_del_Buen_Retiro,_Madrid
The Palacio de Cristal, in the shape of a Greek cross, is made almost entirely of glass set in an iron framework on a brick base, which is decorated with ceramics. Its cupola makes the structure over 22 metres high. When it was erected, glass and iron construction on a large scale was already to be seen in Madrid at Delicias station (1880), the work of a French architect. However the curved architecture of the Palacio de Cristal is more comparable to the techniques pioneered by the British architects Joseph Paxton (who was responsible for London's Crystal Palace) and Decimus Burton (who was responsible for the Palm House at Kew Gardens).
The cast-iron frame was manufactured in Bilbao.[1] The structure was designed in a way that would allow it to be re-erected on another site (as happened to the equivalent building in London). However, the building has remained on the original site, next to a lake, and has been restored to its original appearance. It is no longer used as a greenhouse, and is currently used for art exhibits.[2]

The Crystal Palace belongs to the Reina Sofía Museum, and is one of its exposition centres together with Velázquez Palace
