To all my followers - I'm sorry I've been away.
I've finally found the will to begin uploading again.
No Flickr bashing from me (though I'm not really that keen on the new app). I still think this is the best and easiest image sharing platform around.
I needed to get my head and my life sorted out. It's funny, but it all seemed to coincide with spring. New beginnings and all that. So I'm finally in a house that I can make a home, and more importantly call my own. There's so much else not quite right, but it's slowly coming together.
I've been shooting, and have so many images that I'm sat on to upload. So time to get uploading!!
Following 1,800 people, 2,222 followers, 7,007 updates. Just thought it was a nice combination of numerals.
Regular followers of my ramblings here may remember Olympe from her wonderful art exhibition some time ago, and her work at the Louvre. Since then, we've all become closer friends, and I'm proud to say that Olympe is now my SL auntie. Alex and I went to meet up outside the Galerie des Machines, to chat and stroke the little birds.

Although you really cannot tell from the pic, the LED in the follower is actually a tri-color (blue/green/red.) When the LED is on, you can still make out the circuits on the surface and it looks like the contours of the real thing. Here's a link:

Ok, so just an update as I come across things. Sugery will be second week of April providing my insurance has kicked in by then, otherwise it will be pushed back until insurance is finally set up. Also, a new video card has been ordered not sure when It will be here, I'm thinking about a week or so. Soon as it's here and installed blogging and everything should be back to normal, I will be out of commission in RL for a bit after surgery. So I will be trying my best to blog as much as possible. Thank you to those of you who have messaged me wishing me well, your understanding means a lot to me. My only way of being on SL in through the Lumiya app on my phone so if you see me online that's why. Thank you to my followers and sponsors for sticking by me and having patience while I deal with everything. **I do NOT own the photo, its something I got off my phone from google lol**

When you are a follower you are in the company of many, but when you are a leader you do the job alone.
I thought this screen capture from the Snow White and the Huntsman movie trailer capture the feeling exactly.
Kushinagar, Kusinagar or Kusinara is a town and a Nagar Panchayat in Kushinagar district of Indian state of Uttar Pradesh located around NH-28, being 52 km east to Gorakhpur city. It is an important Buddhist pilgrimage site, where Buddhists believe Gautama Buddha attained Parinirvana after his death. Outside India, it is an International Buddhist Pilgrimage Centre. The followers of the Buddhism, especially from Asian Countries, wish to visit this place at least once in their lifetime.
ETHYMOLOGY
According to one theory, Kushwati was capital of Kosala Kingdom and according to Ramayana it was built by King Kush, son of Rama, protagonist of the epic Ramayana. While according to Buddhist tradition Kushawati was named prior to the king Kush. The naming of Kushwati is believed to be due to abundance of Kush grass found in this region.
DEMOGRAPHICS
As of 2011 India census, Kushinagar had a population of 22,214, with 3462 households. Males constitute 52% (11,502 Men) of the population and females 48% (10,712 Women). Kushinagar has an average literacy rate of 78.43%, higher than the national average of 74%, male literacy is 85%, and female literacy is 72%. In Kushinagar, 11% of the population is under 10 years of age. Schedule Caste (SC) constitutes 5.03% while Schedule Tribe (ST) were 2.39% of total population in Kushinagar Nagar Panchayat.
HISTORY
The present Kushinagar is identified with Kushawati( in pre-Buddha period ) and Kushinara (in Buddha period). Kushinara was the capital of Mallas which was one of the sixteen mahajanpads of the 6th Century B.C. Since then, it remained an integral part of the erstwhile empires of Maurya, Shunga, Kushana, Gupta and Harsha dynasties.
In medieval period, Kushinagar had passed under the suzerainty of Kultury Kings. Kushinara continued to be a living city till the 12th Century A.D. and was thereafter lost into oblivion. Padrauna is believed to be ruled over by a Rajput adventurer, Madan Singh in the 15th century A.D.
However, modern Kushinagar came into prominence in the 19th Century with archeological excavations carried out by Alexander Cunningham, the first Archeological Surveyor of India and later followed by C.L. Carlleyle who exposed the main stupa and also discovered a 6.10 meters long statue of reclining Buddha, in 1876 A.D. Chandra Swami, a Burmeses Monk, came to India in 1903 and made "Mahaparinirvana Temple" into a living shrine.
After independence, Kushinagar remained the part of district Deoria. On 13 May 1994, it came into being as a new district of Uttar Pradesh.
GEOGRAPHY
Kushinagar is situated at 53 km east from Gorakhpur on the National Highway -28, lies between latitude 26° 45´ N and 83° 24´ E. Gorakhpur is the main railway terminus for Kushinagar while air strip of U.P. Civil Aviation is available in Kasia, 5 km. from Kushinagar.

During excavations, a copper-plate was found, which contained the text of the "Nidana-Sutra" which concluded the statement that plate had been deposited in the "Nirvana-Chaitya" by one Haribala, who also installed the great Nirvana Statue of Buddha in the temple front.

First off, let me say thank you to all who’ve followed me since my return as I’m at 100 followers which is really cool! So really, thank you guys! Also, I’ve been home from my vacation for the past few days but haven’t been uploading because on the last day out I came down with the flu and it’s really hit me hard. That being said, it’s also my two year anniversary with my girlfriend (sockmonkey3) and we’ll be celebrating today so I’ll probably upload the next Red Hood tomorrow with an Iron Man and a possible real app (the last app I scrapped…and that rhymed ladies and gentlemen) for Spidey as I finally have some concrete ideas of where I’d like to take that story. I hope those ideas sound exciting, sorry for not uploading much in the past week, thanks for 100 followers and as always thanks for reading!
