“Don’t just exist; do something meaningful with your life. Discover a problem and fix it.”
― Israelmore Ayivor, Become a Better You
“In the wild struggle for existence, we want to have something that endures, and so we fill our minds with rubbish and facts, in the silly hope of keeping our place.”
― Oscar Wilde, The Picture of Dorian Gray

Bids for building the project on lands to be used for the 1998 exposition were solicited internationally. The concept was originally designed by Spanish architect Santiago Calatrava in 1995, and built by Necso [Wikipedia]

When I went to see the Gulf of Mexico in February, I was amazed at the turbulence of the water. It had been so calm during the summer months. I also learned how Venus could float on the sea foam to land, since the foam is quite thick.

Amicia and Hugo:
"Hugo! Where are you?"
"I'm here. I'm close."
"I can't see you! I'll do whatever it takes! I want... to see you."
"Are you sure?"
"You just keep on fighting! We tried that way, and it was a lie. It's not the right way; you know that."
"I don't know, Hugo!"
"It brought death, Amicia. And I brought death too! It's the mistake I made... and what I've become."
"I've seen you fight so many times. You still won't back down, will you, Amicia?"
"It's us or them! I have no choice!"
"You have a choice... but it scares you."
"We need to fix this Amicia!"
"We'll find a solution! I promise, Hugo!"
"You keep saying that. But there's only one solution now."
"You’re the only one who can stop me... from becoming a monster," Hugo said.
"You’re not a monster!"
"I will be…" replied the boy, "if I kill all I love."
Amicia learns what it is to sacrifice all she loves... and she kills her little brother who she loved so much, when he asks her to, because it was the only way to stop the Plague, or the Macula in the boy's blood would never cease killing... killing other people! And what was the life of one boy, to the lives of hundreds? What does the life of one child mean? And what does love mean? Did Amicia ever answer these questions?
And so Amicia slings the stone.
This is a collaboration between Joe (jnj_bricks) and I, built for the Labour of Love category of Brickscalibur. I haven't slept in a while so I should go to sleep now, but later you can see more of the terrain, more of the Rats' Nest, and maybe some behind the scenes. I'm really excited for this build! It looks awfully small, but I had to carry it down the stairs... and I know it weighed a lot! It's huge.
I have to mention that I was very inspired by Josh DeMoss's piece of music from the Symphony of Construction, I listened to it while I was building and it gave me the chills. And of course the music from A Plague Tale: Requiem. It was so beautiful, and touching, and deadly...
I have no words to describe A Plague Tale.
To God Be The Glory, and may you seek Him when you find yourself sad and troubled, like Amicia and Hugo, instead of getting lost...
I hope you like it!

This disused Skating Rink in Norwich does look how I
image a 1950's Nuclear Bunker look in those films of the period. I am especially pleased with the editing because it looks like an image of that period like Ilford colour film.
This is the second picture of this closed skating rink I have uploaded but hopefully it looks a bit more sinister because of the editing with Elements..
Filosofia do Sucesso
Se você pensa que é um derrotado,
Você será um derrotado.
Se não pensar "quero a qualquer custo",
Não consiguirá nada.
Mesmo que você queira vencer, mas se pensa que não vai conseguir,
A vitória não sorrirá para você
Se você fizer as coisas pela metade,
Você será um fracaçado.
Nós descobrimos neste mundo,
Que o sucesso começa pela nossa intenção,
E tudo se determina pelo nosso espírito.
Se você pensa que é um malogrado,
Você o será.
Se você almeja atingir uma posição mais elevada
Deve, antes de obter a vitória,
Dotar-se da convicção de que conseguirá
Infalivelmente.
A luta pela vida, nem sempre é vantajosa;
Nem aos fortes, nem ao espertos.
Mais cedo ou mais tarde,
Quem cativa a vitória é aquele que crê plenamente:
Eu conseguirei!
Napoleon Hill

O sabiá-do-campo (Mimus saturninus) é uma espécie de mimão (mockingbird em inglês). É uma ave famosa por seu vasto repertório de cantos, que incluem imitações de outras espécies. Também pode ser chamada de tejo-do-campo, sabiapoca ou Calhandra.
Apresenta a caracteristica de ave Sinantrópica, ou seja, pode se adaptar as grandes cidades, desde que estejam disponíveis água e áreas verdes onde eles possam pousar, caçar e fazer ninhos. Sua cor marron com torso acinzentado colaboram para sua preservação, já que mimetizam ambientes urbanos e campestres. São pássaros pequenos, os adultos medindo de 12 a 15 cm. Uma curiosidade é que seu canto vibrante e sonoro parece não corresponder ao animal tão pequeno.
Elas encantam crianças e adultos com sua beleza, e é difícil resistir ao desejo de possuí-las. Não há nada de mal levar alguns exemplares para se lembrar dos dias na praia, fazer alguns enfeites... No entanto, não se deve nunca retirar conchas do fundo do mar ou perturbar as que ainda estão vivas

Shisen-dō (詩仙堂) is a Buddhist temple of the Sōtō Zen sect in Sakyō-ku, Kyoto, Japan. It is registered as a historic site of Japan. It stands on the grounds of its founder, the Edo period intellectual Ishikawa Jōzan (1583–1672), who established the temple in 1641.
A room in the main temple displays portraits of thirty-six Chinese poets. The selection of the poets was based on the opinion of Hayashi Razan. The portraits were executed by Kanō Tan'yū. This and some other parts of the building date to the time of Ishikawa Jōzan.
The temple's gardens are considered masterworks of Japanese gardens.[1] One of them includes a device called a sōzu, a type of shishi-odoshi designed to scare away wild animals such as deer by making a loud noise. Water trickles into a bamboo tube, and when it reaches a certain level, it upsets the balance of the tube. The tube tips over on a pivot, discharging the water, and turns upright, striking a rock and emitting a loud clapping noise.

FAFE (Portugal): Casa do Penedo.
Casa construída nos anos 70 (terminada em 1974) a partir do aproveitamento de quatro rochas. As paredes externas foram revestidas com pedregulhos, semelhantes às rochas originais.
A casa tem dois pisos. No primeiro há uma sala e uma pequena cozinha. No andar de cima, uma casa de banho e três quartos. Tudo bem pequeno, inclusive as camas, para caber no espaço deixado pelas pedras.
Just a few more shots with my Infra Red converted compact camera. Yesterday I showed you some shots taken in a park. Today the focus is a little more on urban street shots. In this composition I am using the idea of the vanishing point. The lines direct our attention to the trees at the end of the lane that show the most obvious IR effect. The counterpoint to this is the arrow pointing out.
