This ring is from my Embedded series. It is a one-of-a-kind production. The ring was cast in fine silver using the lost wax technique. A volcanic beach pebble is embedded in the silver of the ring.
Probably every person who has worked with stones and metal has longed for the possibility to inset the stone directly into the metal without the obtrusive interference of prongs and bezels. Embedded is my personal fulfillment of this longing. The resulting jewelry gives me great satisfaction
Since the beginning of time, among all the creatures of this world, the fable of the legendary continent of Safe Haven has endured. The legend tells of the merchants trading in the barren, desolate lands, who offer all kinds of fantastic and magical things in their stores. It describes the special lessons of role-playing in the caravanserai, off the conventional route through the desert city – and last but not least of the well-hidden mystical “Mana’Olana” – the Oasis of Hope. An arduous and risky path through ruins supposedly leads to the oasis.
The legend describes that oasis as a sanctuary for all living beings, a place free and detached from prejudices or the insistence on stereotypical prejudices and expectations – regardless of the gender, genus, color, language, appearance of its visitors.
The Oasis is a place of peace, community, colorful gathering, where pure-hearted beings are given the chance to find a safe refuge from persecution and the fulfillment of their deepest desires. The secret lies embedded in the oasis – in the form of a magical color fountain and the unique tree of healing, as well as the temple of meditation and dance art.
According to legend, no visitor has ever voluntarily returned to their old life – but is it really possible?

Thousands go underground as Limerick Tunnel open day proves a big success
NRA has no official opening date for €660 million road project
Published Date: 19 June 2010
By Mike Dwane
GLORIOUS sunshine attracted thousands of curious visitors to the Limerick Tunnel on Saturday as the Direct Route consortium hosted a public open day.
No official opening date has been set for the motorists eager to use the €660 million road project but Saturday was the first and last chance for pedestrians, cyclists, prams and even dogs to travel the 700 metres under the Shannon.
"It's been a huge turnout and everybody is delighted with it. The weather has helped obviously. It's great for people to come and see the project on what will be their one and only chance to walk through the tunnel and get a feel for what it is like," said Tom Meagher, the NRA's resident engineer on the project.
"The next time they go through the tunnel, they will be whizzing through it in 30 seconds," he added.
When that might be is not certain, however.
"The contractual date is September 23 and obviously the contractor is hoping to finish prior to that. Everyone is working as hard as they can to try and finish as early as possible.
"Officially, we don't have a date. We have a lot of snagging and small items to finish on the scheme. As soon as they are done and the project is safe to open, it will be opened," Mr Meagher said.
Park and ride bus services were in operation at Limerick Racecourse, the City East business park and the Kilmurray Lodge to ferry visitors to and from the tunnel. Marquees erected on the north bank of the river allowed members of the public ask questions of the project engineers and view a scale model of the Southern Ring Phase Two scheme.
Queues formed at the stall run by The Intolligent Ltd, the company which issues electronic tags which can be mounted on the windscreen and provide a more convenient way of paying the €1.80 tunnel toll over multiple journeys.
"There has been absolutely huge interest so far," said Siobhan Hatworth, The Intolligent, "the majority from private individuals rather than business users so far. A lot of people are excited by how it works and this is going to make their commutes so much easier."
Vendors were also dishing out food and refreshments for the thousands who came along. And in association with Limerick Rotary, Direct Route was selling commemorative tunnel booklets in aid of local chairities like Milford Care Centre, Cystic Fibrosis Association Limerick and Thomond House.
Laura Kelly, Kilfinane, said "it is very impressive from an engineering point of view but from a financial point of view, with the state the country is in, you have to question how viable it might be. I can see people avoiding the toll and using the old road."
But Tony and Carmel Mason from Cratloe were not in agreement.
"I imagine we will use it a lot. We have to cross from one side to the other on a fairly regular basis so it will definitiely be a great asset to us. What you might pay on the toll, you will save on fuel and you don't have the frustration of the traffic," said Mr Mason.
Mr Mason has a boat and has "floated over the tunnel a few times, including when they were building it and laying it on the riverbed but it's good to be finally in it".
Cratloe has been particularly badly disrupted during construction but those days are almost at an end.
"It was an inconvenience during the peak construction time but now that we're almost there, it's great and we'll be relived of all that soon. You have to put up with it. You can't stop progress," he said.
Meanwhile, Donal Cooper from Newcastle West had one or two ideas of his own as he stood directly under the Shannon at the tunnel's lowest point.
"I wonder how much water is above me right now and what weight it is? The thing is will it draw Clare and Limerick closer together or should we have a passport centre at the Clare side like we had years ago? I'm proposing passport control to stop Clare people coming across. We shouldn't let them in and we should start taking over more land on the Clare side," he said.
He also noted that the toll revenue was collected on the north and not on the south side of the river.
"In Limerick, we leave people through free of charge and have done so for years whereas in Clare , what else would you expect," he joked.

Sydney’s tallest building, Sydney Tower, gets reflected in 20 level office tower. Walking along the Pitt Street at one time I was stunned by clear and almost full size reflection of Sydney Tower in one of the glass buildings nearby. I observed it for a while moving around and noticing how reflection is changing and disappearing at some spots. After that I started to think about capturing the view noticing when would be the best light and the best time. Sometime later with Tower glowing in yellow light of setting sun and sky deeply blue I took around 27 shots handheld from different places to select just a few for further processing.
For this image I chose 9 shots (3 vertical AEB sets with three -2,0,+2EV photos in each). 3 HDR files came out of those 9 images and finally they were stitched into one big HDR panorama. I then tonemapped it lightly and processed to enhance the contrast, color and few minor things like noise and shadows.

NEW MEXICANS PARTICIAPTE IN LARGEST GATHERING AGAINST OFFSHORE DRILLING IN
HISTORY
Citizens Joined Hands across the Old Alameda Walking Bridge over the Rio
Grande, our Direct Link to the Gulf of Mexico
ALBUQUERQUE, NM - Today, over 100 residents of New Mexico joined the largest
nationwide gathering against offshore drilling ever held. Citizens met at
the Old Alameda Walking Bridge over the Rio Grande and joined hands as part
of an international Hands Across the Sand day of action.
This event began in Auckland, New Zealand and will work its way across
global time zones finishing on the North Shore of Kauai, Hawaii. Today
there will be over 900 events in all 50 states, Washington, DC, Puerto Rico,
and 37 countries around the world. For more information and background,
please visit www.handsacrossthesand.org.
"The tragedy continuing to unfold in the Gulf is a wake-up call that we
can't afford to waste any more time finding riskier and more expensive ways
to drill for oil," said Shrayas Jatkar with the Sierra Club in New Mexico.
"Now is the time to get serious about putting our innovation to work to
create a 21st century transportation system that will break our deadly
addiction to oil and protect America's coasts."
The Hands Across the Sand events are aimed at steering America's energy
policy away from its dependence on fossil fuels and towards clean energy.
The goal is to convince leaders like President Obama and Congress to abandon
offshore oil drilling and adopt policies that encourage clean energy
instead.
"We are here at the Old Alameda Walking Bridge over the Rio Grande, our
direct link to the Gulf, because we don't ever want to see the BP oil spill
disaster repeated," said Jake Horowitz, Mountain West Field Associate,
Environment New Mexico. "America's coast and beaches are treasured places
where millions of people visit every year to enjoy the outdoors, swim, fish
and relax. In the next few months, Congress and the administration will have
the fate of our shores in their hands. At this Hands Across the Sand event,
we are saying to them loud and clear: No to more offshore drilling and
spilling and Yes to clean energy and reducing our dependence on oil."
"As we watch from afar, it is hard to fathom the scope of the Gulf Coast oil
spill that is unfolding day by day," said Staci Stevens with Audubon New
Mexico. "Volunteer response to this growing disaster has been amazing. And
as we have witnessed here today, even in a landlocked state like New Mexico,
people just want to do something to help and to make sure that nothing like
this happens again."
"President Obama and Interior Secretary Ken Salazar recently announced their
decision to suspend Shell Oil's plans for drilling in the Arctic Ocean this
summer. Just like our shores here in the lower 48 states, the Arctic Ocean
deserves special protection," said Liz VanDenzen, New Mexico Field Staff
Representative for Alaska Wilderness League. "The Arctic Ocean is one of the
most unique marine ecosystems in the world and has been essential to the
survival of some of our nation's most beloved wildlife and Alaska's Inupiat
people for thousands of years. We must continue to work hard to ensure that
any future development in these pristine waters is only allowed to proceed
when it can be done safely."
Hands Across The Sand was founded by Floridian Dave Rauschkolb, a surfer and
restaurateur, in October of 2009 in response to the Florida legislature's
attempt to open Florida's coasts to drilling. On February 13, 2010,
thousands of Floridians joined hands at over 90 beaches from Jacksonville to
Miami Beach and Key West to Pensacola Beach. After this success, Dave
decided to try for a national event and the interest in the event spiraled
and it has gone international.
"This simple, yet powerful human expression of unity will send a clear
message to our leaders that more offshore drilling is not the answer and now
is the time to create our clean energy future, " said Hands Across the Sand
founder Dave Rauschkolb.
Hands Across the Sand in New Mexico has been organized by Alaska Wilderness
League, Audubon New Mexico, Environment New Mexico, New Mexico Interfaith
Power and Light, New Mexico Wilderness Alliance, and the Sierra Club. Hands
Across The Sand is endorsed by national environmental organizations
including: 350.org, 1Sky, Audubon, Alaska Wilderness League, Center for
Biological Diversity, Clean Water Action, Defenders of Wildlife, Earth Day
Network, Endangered Species Coalition, Energy Action Coalition, Environment
America, Friends of the Earth, Greenpeace, MoveOn.org, Oceana, The Ocean
Conservancy, Rainforest Action Network, Sierra Club, Southern Alliance for
Clean Energy, and Surfrider Foundation.
