When I Form My Body in the Shape of a Koala Bear
Too many people think Steve Albini is Shellac, but I'm here to let everyone
know Bob Weston is a big part of the band, too. To do this I've enclosed photo-
graphic evidence for you. People enjoy Albini's music, but they love Bob
Weston. Please help me spread the word. If you need more photos of many
others proclaiming their love, I've got 'em.

Mesopotamia—the land between rivers—lay cradled by the Tigris and Euphrates, in what is today Iraq, and parts of Syria, Iran and Turkey. It is here, over 5000 years ago, that humanity began to write, to measure, to shape the world with thought made material.
Often called the cradle of civilisation, Mesopotamia gave rise to the first known cities, legal codes, poetry, and trade networks. But perhaps most quietly revolutionary: it was here that time was made. The division of hours into 60 minutes, of days into structured ritual and celestial rhythm, stems from the Sumerians’ sexagesimal system. They watched the stars and counted the breath between shadow and light.
It was not a single civilisation, but many: Sumerians, Akkadians, Babylonians, Assyrians—each layering knowledge upon the next. And though temples and empires rose and fell, it was the everyday—the shaping of clay, the weaving of linen, the counting of grain—that endured. Culture, here, was not a luxury. It was a way of surviving beautifully.
In Mesopotamia, humans became makers of meaning.
Not through conquest. But through pattern. Through form. Through time.
“Kiln Songs”
They did not know
they were building the spine
of centuries.
A kiln in a courtyard—
a cracked bowl resting
like a sleeping moon.
Laughter braided through fingers
as slip met skin.
Clothes not tailored, but grown—
colours whispered
from plants, ash, and river bones.
They spun stories not in language,
but in glaze,
in fringe,
in the swing of a hip
on market mornings.
Their world had no history yet—
just movement.
Just clay that remembered the hand
that touched it.
River bends her mouth—
hands shape bowls from silt and song.
Dust listens, still warm.
Fringes catch the breeze—
girls in linen, laughing light.
Time forgets their names.
Before stone knew form,
before breath turned into text,
she danced, shaping flame.

La Savonette
Cour d'honneur
La Savonnette est une sculpture en bronze réalisée en 1994 par l’artiste français Robert Couturier (1905 – 2008). Elève d’Aristide Maillol, Robert Couturier réalise des œuvres aux formes pleines, rondes et généreuses. Après la seconde guerre mondiale l’artiste recherche désormais la suggestion plus que la représentation. Il privilégie la ligne au modelé autour du thème éternel du nu.

Handheld long exposure at night. The cars are moving very fast so all is left behind is the beautiful forms left behind of their headlights.
Here you also see more elongated signage on the road intended for drivers. In Hong Kong, signage on the road is typical, and one can reason that it is a lot safer this way to keep the drivers’ eyes on the road instead of up above.

I rescued this little frog from my dog today and took his photograph before releasing him.

We were losing light pretty quickly so we stopped over in the industrial area of Regina. We originally went there to get a different feel for the photo but it ended up being pretty clear without much industrial going on.
I saw more blur this time around due to stability issues. We didn't want to suction-cup the fresh dip so we clamped right onto the hitch rack and got real wide but resulted in a little wobble.
Der Floratempel wurde 1797/98 von Erdmannsdorff nach dem Vorbild von Chambers Casinobau in Wilson errichtet, der wiederum auf den Clitumnustempel bei Spoleto zurückgeht. Er diente zur Zeit des Fürsten Franz als Musikpavillon.
Der Göttin der Blumen und der Jugend zu Ehren, wurde dieser Bereich von jeher mit Blumen geschmückt, was im frühen Landschaftsgarten nicht üblich war. Vor dem Tempel ist ein Beet in Phallusform,dem Priapos geweiht.
The Jewish Square, Vienna 1, formed in the Middle Ages under the name of "schoolyard" the center of the former Jewish Town, extending next to the Ducal court. It was closed from the rest of the city by four gates. Here there were school, bathhouse, synagogue and the house of the rabbi. The school was one of the most important of German-speaking countries. The community existed from about 1190 to the Vienna Geserah in 1421.
The stemming from the 15th century Jordan House, Nr. 2, bears a late Gothic relief with the representation of Jesus' baptism in the Jordan. This is not only a reference to the name of the house owner, Jörg Jordan, but also to the Vienna Geserah which the accompanying text endorses. On the initiative of Cardinal Christoph Schönborn, the Archdiocese of Vienna donated a plaque which Cardinal Franz König on 29 October 1998 unveiled. Its text reads: "Kiddush HaShem" means "sanctification of God". With this awareness, chose Viennese Jews in the synagogue here on Jewish Square - the center of an important Jewish community - at the time of persecution 1420/21 the suicide to escape a feared by them forced baptism. Others, about 200, were burnt alive in Erdberg (today 3rd district of Vienna) at the stake. Christian preachers of that time spread superstitious anti-Jewish ideas and thus incited against the Jews and their faith. So influenced, Christians in Vienna acquiesced without resistance, approved it and became perpetrators. Thus, the liquidation of the Vienna Jewish Town in 1421 was already a looming omen for what happened in our century throughout europe during the Nazi dictatorship. Medieval popes pronounced unsuccessfully against the anti-Jewish superstition, and individual believers struggled unsuccessfully against the racial hatred of the Nazis. But those were too few. Today Christendom regrets its involvement in the persecution of Jews and recognizes its failures. "Sanctification of God" today for Christians can only mean: asking for forgiveness and hope in God's salvation. October 29, 1998
Already in 1910, consisted the plan here the poet of the Enlightenment, Gotthold Ephraim Lessing (1729-1781), who in his play "Nathan the Wise" the interdenominational tolerance has put up a literary monument, to honor with a statue. In 1935, a sculpture by Siegfried Charoux was unveiled, but only four years later, in 1940, taken off and melted down for armaments. In 1968, the same artist created again a Lessing monument, which came first on the Morzin square and 1981 on the original site.
Since 2000, the place is a unique ensemble of remembering with the memorial by Rachel Whiteread for the 65,000 Austrian victims of the Shoah. 1995 the foundations of the in 1420 destroyed synagogue were excavated which now with finds constitute a part of the branch of the Jewish Museum Vienna. A computer-animated walk leads into one of the largest Jewish communities in Europe which existed here in the early 15th century. Another room is dedicated to the Shoah documentation.
Der Judenplatz, Wien 1, bildete im Mittelalter unter dem Namen „Schulhof“ den Mittelpunkt der einstigen Judenstadt, die sich neben dem Herzogshof erstreckte. Sie war durch vier Tore von der übrigen Stadt abgeschlossen. Hier befanden sich Schule, Badestube, Synagoge und das Haus des Rabbiners. Die Schule war eine der bedeutendsten des deutschen Sprachraums. Die Gemeinde bestand ab etwa 1190 bis zur Wiener Geserah im Jahre 1421.
Das aus dem 15. Jahrhundert stammende Jordanhaus, Nr. 2, trägt ein spätgotisches Relief mit der Darstellung der Taufe Jesu im Jordan. Dieses ist nicht nur eine Anspielung auf den Namen des Hausbesitzers, Jörg Jordan, sondern auch auf die Wiener Geserah, die der beigefügte Text gut heißt. Auf Initiative von Kardinal Christoph Schönborn stiftete die Erzdiözese Wien eine Gedenktafel, die Kardinal Franz König am 29. Oktober 1998 enthüllte. Ihr Text lautet: „Kiddusch HaSchem“ heißt „Heiligung Gottes“ Mit diesem Bewußtsein wählten Juden Wiens in der Synagoge hier am Judenplatz — dem Zentrum einer bedeutenden jüdischen Gemeinde — zur Zeit der Verfolgung 1420/21 den Freitod, um einer von ihnen befürchteten Zwangstaufe zu entgehen. Andere, etwa 200, wurden in Erdberg auf dem Scheiterhaufen lebendig verbrannt. Christliche Prediger dieser Zeit verbreiteten abergläubische judenfeindliche Vorstellungen und hetzten somit gegen die Juden und ihren Glauben. So beeinflusst nahmen Christen in Wien dies widerstandslos hin, billigten es und wurden zu Tätern. Somit war die Auflösung der Wiener Judenstadt 1421 schon ein drohendes Vorzeichen für das, was europaweit in unserem Jahrhundert während der nationalsozialistischen Zwangsherrschaft geschah. Mittelalterliche Päpste wandten sich erfolglos gegen den judenfeindlichen Aberglauben, und einzelne Gläubige kämpften erfolglos gegen den Rassenhaß der Nationalsozialisten. Aber es waren derer zu wenige. Heute bereut die Christenheit ihre Mitschuld an den Judenverfolgungen und erkennt ihr Versagen. „Heiligung Gottes“ kann heute für die Christen nur heißen: Bitte um Vergebung und Hoffnung auf Gottes Heil. 29. Oktober 1998
Schon 1910 bestand der Plan, dem Dichter der Aufklärung Gotthold Ephraim Lessing (1729-1781), der in seinem Stück „Nathan der Weise“hat Lessing der interkonfessionellen Toleranz ein literarisches Denkmal gesetzt hat, hier mit einem Standbild zu ehren. 1935 wurde eine Plastik von Siegfried Charoux enthüllt, doch schon vier Jahre später entfernt und 1940 für Rüstungszwecke eingeschmolzen. 1968 schuf der selbe Künstler wieder ein Lessing-Denkmal, das zunächst auf den Morzinplatz und 1981 an den ursprünglichen Aufstellungsort kam.
Seit 2000 ist der Platz ein einzigartiges Ensemble des Erinnerns mit dem Mahnmal von Rachel Whiteread für die 65.000 österreichischen Opfer der Schoa. 1995 wurden die Fundamente der 1420 zerstörten Synagoge ergraben, die nun mit Funden einen Teil der Außenstelle des Jüdischen Museums Wien ausmachen. Ein computeranimierter Spaziergang führt in eine der größten jüdischen Gemeinden Europas, die Anfang des 15. Jahrhundert hier bestand. Ein weiterer Raum ist der Schoa-Dokumentation gewidmet.

This bulb has grown very well for me in Honolulu. It is truly evergreen and has only gone dormant when I have forced it to by letting it dry out completely. Undulation of its leaf margins (frilliness) is dependent on light intensity. At the second place I lived in Mānoa Valley (where this picture was taken) it was a sunny location with very few trees and rather dependable sunlight, and thus it began to produce extremely undulate leaves. The third place I lived at in the valley had many tall trees, frequent rainfall and cloud cover. Because of this the leaves returned to emerging relatively flat. This picture shows how the undulation has ebbed after 5 months in a shadier location.
I imported this bulb from Penroc in South Africa as:
'Boophone disticha East Cape 'evergreen frilly form'.
B. disticha is a wide-spread species native to vast areas of Africa (get ready): Burundi, Rwanda, DRC, Sudan, Kenya, Tanania, Uganda, Angola, Malawi, Mozambique, Zambia, Zimbabwe, Botswana, and South Africa.
Ethnobotanical uses include extraction of poison for arrows, treating pain and wounds, application to boils and abscesses. Fresh leaves have been used to stop the bleeding of wounds and the Khoisan successfully mummified the dead using Boophone leaves. (Scroll down to "Mummy Post-Script")

I handmade this ring using fold forming techniques but with random folds so they would not come out too symmetrical. I also fused silver in the middle of the blossoms to add some color contrast and texture. The blossoms were soldered to the ends of a sterling silver wire and then wrapped to form this unique ring.
