Rainbow March For Marriage Equality Melbourne, 1st October 2017

 

The 'yes' campaign has already made history. Now we need to win the vote, and win by a lot.

 

Thousands joined Equal Love's 'YES' rally Sunday October 1st, 2017 to demonstrate that the mass of people support equality and to remind those who have yet to vote 'yes' that it is imperative that they do.

When death approaches, the close family and friends try to support and comfort the dying person through supplication as well as remembrance of Allah and His will. The attendance is to help the dying person to iterate his commitment to unity of God.

 

The end of life..

When the earth is shaken to her (utmost) convulsion, And the earth throws up her burdens (from within), And man cries (distressed): 'What is the matter with her ?'- On that Day will she declare her tidings: For that thy Lord will have given her inspiration. On that Day will men proceed in companies sorted out, to be shown the deeds that they (had done). Then shall anyone who has done an atom's weight of good, see it ! And anyone who has done an atom's weight of evil, shall see it.

Equal: Agreeing in quantity, size, quality, degree, value, etc.; having the same magnitude, the same value, the same degree, etc. - from Webster's Unabridged Dictionary, Project Gutenberg, public domain

 

The equals sign, which we now take for granted, was first used in 1557, by a Welsh mathematician named Robert Recorde. (See the Wikipedia article on the equals sign: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equals_sign)

 

Equations used: two equations from “simple” arithmetic; Ohm’s law; Einstein’s energy/mass equivalence equation; Euler’s equation; the law of Sines; An equation for compound interest; Slope-intercept formula for a straight line; Newton’s law of universal gravitation.

 

The largest equation in the graphic, from "simple arithmetic" illustrates one of the main ideas of arithmetic, namely that a thing is equal to itself. Another one uses a zero. Zero, as we now use it, was invented in India in the 9th century AD. (See en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zero) Euler's equation, also known as Euler’s identity, relates perhaps the most important constants of mathematics, pi, e, and the square root of minus one. (See en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euler%27s_identity) There are other ways of representing compound interest, depending on the situation, but the equation used will cover many of them. The Law of Sines has been used in astronomy, to measure distances of bodies within the solar system from the earth. It can also be used in surveying.

 

Two of the most important statements in English that use the word equal are:

 

Philippians 2:6 Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God: 7 But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men: (King James version)

 

and

 

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. - U. S. Declaration of Independence (I know. At the time, all men weren’t considered equal, and women weren’t included. But it was, and is, a great idea.)

Space Policeman Jack Nelson discovers the new equal opportunity employment policy. A little tribute to the Watch from Terry Pratchett's Discworld novels.

 

“We’re here!” is paying a visit to The Kurt Vonnegut Appreciation Society today – and there I was with no recollection of ever having read one of his novels. This seemed so odd to me that I double-checked the list of his writings, but no, nothing was ringing a bell. I noticed there was a short story mentioned, and I had time to read a short story. So my image today is an interpretation of Harrison Bergeron, wherein society enforces equality by requiring each person to hide their special talents and abilities through cruel and extreme means.

  

Mr, Vonnegut once wrote a letter to the earth’s inhabitants 100 years hence, offering this advice:

 

“The sort of leaders we need now are not those who promise ultimate victory over Nature through perseverance in living as we do right now, but those with the courage and intelligence to present to the world what appears to be Nature’s stern but reasonable surrender terms:

 

Reduce and stabilize your population.

Stop poisoning the air, the water, and the topsoil.

Stop preparing for war and start dealing with your real problems.

Teach your kids, and yourselves, too, while you’re at it, how to inhabit a small planet without helping to kill it.

Stop thinking science can fix anything if you give it a trillion dollars.

Stop thinking your grandchildren will be OK no matter how wasteful or destructive you may be, since they can go to a nice new planet on a spaceship. That is really mean, and stupid.

And so on. Or else.”

Notes: The photographer could be Emmanuel, Duc de Noailles (1830-1909), a French diplomat who also made some photographs on paper negatives in Tunisia ca 1858.

 

Patented in 1889 by W. W. J. Nicol, the Kallitype print is an iron-silver process. A chemical process similar to the Van dyke brown based on the use of a combination of ferric and silver salts. While Van dyke brown and argyrotype use ferric ammonium citrate, the light-sensitive element used for the Kallitype is ferric oxalate. Like the Platinotype and Cyanotype, the kallitype is a contact printing process and the printer must have a negative of equal size to print from. Sometimes known as "the poor man's platinum print", when the image is toned in platinum or palladium the result is nearly chemically identical to a true Platinotype. It is believed that many Kallitypes were passed off as true Platinotypes and remain in collections as so.

A rally and press conference was held on Tuesday afternoon April 10th at the Daley Center in downtown Chicago to call attention to the fact that the state of Illinois is one of fourteen states yet to pass the Equal Rights Amendment.

 

The Equal Rights Amendment states that: "Equality of rights under the law shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or any state on account of sex". The E.R.A, would provide legal protection for women in various ways including gender-based violence, equal pay, and pregnancy discrimination.

 

70% of America's poor are women. This also affects the children who depend on them.

 

Women make up roughly half the workforce and constitute two-thirds of minimum wage workers.

 

Women earn 79 and 44% of what men make adjusted for their race. The latter figure applies more to blacks and Hispanics.

 

Women are twice as likely to retire in poverty as men.

 

Passing the E.R.A. would ensure that employers could not give women less pay for doing the same work as a man.

Often thought of as weeds because of the tendency of some species to spread uncontrollably with long, messy foliage, the spiderwort family (Commelinaceae) contains a number of very attractive plants. Spiderworts (Tradescantia sp.) and dayflowers (Commelina sp.) are closely related but the latter tends to have fewer blossoms at a time and longer stems. Their flowers also look like little faces and only two petals are prominent. In contrast, spiderworts sometimes have large clusters of flowers, which are more symmetrically shaped with three equal petals. The colors of the blossoms range from very light blue to pink to purple.

 

Spiderworts can be compared to daylilies where as each blossom lasts only one day. The common name refers to the many glistening hairs on the sepals and the buds as they resemble a spider's nest of webs, especially when covered with dew. "Wort" is an old English word for plant.
