OK, follow ths theory. After the ark landed, Noah's 4 sons go out and form the races of man, heading to Europe, the middle east, Asia and Africa. Suddenly their families' skin changed colors and they started speaking brand new languages with different alphabets, despite all being Hebrews to start with. And then they all became cavemen and Neandertals. There was a whole series of dioramas on this topic, but they were too silly to even photograph.
The UNHCR Representative explains the caption below an image taken by award-winning photographer Lara Jo Regan. In Texas, USA, in 2000, the mother of a Mexican immigrant family makes piñatas to support herself and her children in Texas. Pinatas, a Mexican tradition, are widely used at birthday parties of children in many countries of the world, including Cyprus
The picture sends also a message on the benefits of multiculturalism.
If societies welcome refugees or migrants and give them the opportunity to work and become part of the society then like anyone else, they will become self reliant and they will contribute to the wealth and diversity of the countries they settle in. Interculturalism complements our own identity without suppressing it, enriches our lives, enhances harmony, and focuses on inherent human value.

Mom stopped showing me for a bit. So why do I still need to get my nails dremeled, toe hairs trimmed and my ears trimmed? Why can't she just leave me be?

p.s. She even gave me a bath over the weekend!!!
This is a marvellous museum explaining the foundation of Lron by the Roman's and their consequent history here.
The ancient Roman walls of Leon had four entrances, one for each of the four cardinal compass points and they provided access to the four principal streets of the town.
The Arch of the Prison or Castle Gate is one of these entrances and the only one which survived after the Bishop's gate, which was located between the Cathedral and the Bishop's Palace, was demolished in 1910. The present arch was reconstructed in the 18th century but conserves part of the original medieval structure as can be seen from various inscriptions. Nowadays it serves to connect the Plaza de Espolon and the Plaza de Puerta del Castillo.
The name Prison Arch was adopted from the castle alongside, which in its day served as the city prison. It is said that this building was built on the Roman wall in the middle ages taking advantage of the fortifications tha t ajready existed.
in 1649 the Duke of Hijar was imprisoned accused of consonpiracy against Felipe IV and he died there after 15 years of imprisonment. Over the years it was used intermittently as a place of reclusion until 1976 when it assumed the function of storing the Historic Archives of the City of Leon. A function it continues to carry out to this day.
The loadstone of Ellen O’Hara’s presentation on Cockpit Arts as a unique craft-based incubator concerned value. This began with Ellen explaining her decision to leave the financial sector to work in the arts, owing to this career trajectory being more aligned with her personal values. Personal-professional alignment proved a leitmotif in Ellen’s talk, with her emphasizing the importance of individual makers understanding what motivates their practice. There may of course be many drivers for creative entrepreneurs. Money is only one of them and developing expertise en route to recognition typically takes priority.
Regardless of this hierarchy, evolving a plan for practice that syncs with a particular working style is key. Establishing this relationship is a point of departure for Cockpit’s business coaching, which for Ellen often involves understanding in detail how a practitioner thinks. As she explained, there are big differences between a lateral thinker and linear one. Does a practitioner begin with an idea and then proceed to execute it? Or do they start with a more general impulse and experiment en route to realising an outcome? The difference between these approaches will influence the kind of business plan that is best suited for their working style.
A related and fascinating aspect of Ellen’s presentation concerned value, specifically where the value of creative practice resides. The tendency to focus on the value of an outcome overshadows auxiliary value that accretes along the way. For example, one of the reasons why people are so attracted to handmade objects is that they're created by individuals who have the skills and vision to bring something unique into the world. Makers often take for granted their relationship with their technical expertise, their creative process and the products that they create. Consumers appreciate hearing about these things so as to better grasp the process involved in both the object’s and their maker’s becoming.
Tortie Hoare, whose presentation for the cycling tour features earlier in this album, commented on the value of sharing her process of producing leather-based designs in Ellen's session. As Tortie explained sends clients photographs that document the production of particular objects. Practical strategies like these can go a long way to resource in reifying the diverse values of a creative practice for both the practitioner and those encountering their work.

catherine listens and manuel pours. We enjoyed bubbly and then chardonnay by Denoise, a very decent Calon Segur claret and then a bottle of generic Fitou with the cheese. I belive everyone slept very soundly.
I feel like I do need to explain actually. Funny story, went into a bathroom and found the "FREE" sign on the paper towels...well did you expect me to buy them from you?
...don't answer that.

In the sides of buildings in Helsinki there are these inexplicable little keyholes.
So it turns out that each city department has its own special master key, which opens these locks. When you unlock the lock, you actually pull out a little tube, which contains the key to get into that particular building. This explains how people like the postmen can deliver mail into people's mail slots (bypassing the locked building front doors) without having to pester the building superintendent.
One can get the "key to the city" - or even a whole set of 'em!
Cockatoo Island
Look closely at these walls and gates and you will not notice anything unusual. They seem to fit in beautifully, too, with the building they are situated in on Cockatoo Island.
I have visited the island 3 times before and walked past these walls a number of times.
Last night Brendan, one of the staff on Cockatoo Island, explained that these 'brick' walls were actually cardboard and the "iron" gate is really made of wood. We touched them and yes, they certainly are! Even at very short range it is impossible to spot the deception.
This magic trickery was created as a film set for "X-Men Origins: Wolverine" due to be released this year. Read more here
