Deadly Ignorance

Zheng Muen is a co-worker at a Chinese Christian church in the United States. He has believed in the Lord for many years, and has worked for the Lord with unwavering enthusiasm. One day, his aunt witnessed to him that the Lord Jesus has returned and expressed the truth, and that He is performing the judgment and cleansing work of the last days. Hearing this news, Zheng Muen was very excited. Through reading Almighty God's words and watching the movies and videos of The Church of Almighty God, Zheng Muen confirmed from his heart that the words of Almighty God are the truth, and that Almighty God is quite possibly the second coming of Lord Jesus. Therefore, he and several brothers and sisters began investigating God's work of the last days. Unexpectedly, when Pastor Ma of his church learned this, he tried to disrupt and hinder Zheng Muen over and over. In order to make Zheng Muen give up examining the true way, Pastor Ma let him watch videos that the Chinese Communist government used to discredit and condemn Eastern Lightning. Zheng Muen was puzzled and couldn't understand why religious pastors and elders condemn Almighty God when it's clear that Almighty God's words are the truth and the voice of God, and why they not only do not seek and investigate the true way themselves but block other believers from accepting it. Why is this? … Afraid of being deceived and taking the wrong path, and at the same time afraid of missing the opportunity to be raptured at the Lord's return, Zheng Muen felt conflicted and confused. Just at that time, Pastor Ma sent him some negative propaganda of the Chinese Communist Party and the religious world. After reading it, Zheng Muen became doubtful. He believed the pastor's words and gave up investigating the true way. Later on, the witnesses of The Church of Almighty God fellowshiped about the truth with him, which allowed Zheng Muen to understand that the fundamental principle of investigating the true way is to see whether it has the truth and whether what is expressed is the voice of God. Only the appearance and work of Christ can express many truths, because no corrupt humans can express the truth. This is a manifold fact. If one does not pay attention to hearing the voice of God and only rely on their imagination to wait for the Lord Jesus to descend on a cloud, they will never be able to welcome God's appearance. Zheng Muen finally understood the mystery of the wise virgins hearing the voice of God that the Lord Jesus spoke of. He no longer believed the lies and fallacies of the Chinese Communist government and the religious world, and broke away from the control and bondage of the religious pastor. Zheng Muen deeply felt that it's not simple to investigate the true way, and that if one cannot discern things and does not seek the truth, they will never hear the voice of God or be brought before God's throne, and they will only die ensnared in Satan's net, which will fulfill these words in the Bible: "My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge" (Hos 4:6), and "Fools die for want of wisdom" (Pro 10:21).

The Common Gull (Larus canus) is a medium-sized gull which breeds in northern Asia, northern Europe and northwestern North America. Adult common gulls are noticeably smaller than the herring gull and slightly smaller than the ring-billed gull. It is further distinguished from the ring-billed gull by its shorter, more tapered bill, which is a more greenish shade of yellow and is unmarked during the breeding season. The body is grey above and white below. The legs are greenish-yellow. In winter, the head is streaked grey and the bill often has a poorly defined blackish band near the tip, which is sometimes sufficiently obvious to cause confusion with ring-billed gull. They have black wingtips with large white "mirrors". Young birds have scaly black-brown upperparts and a neat wing pattern, and grey legs. They take two to three years to reach maturity. The call is a high-pitched "laughing" cry. (wikipedia)

 

This is an adult Common Gull in winter plumage. They breed on the coast and inland in the west of Ireland, from Dingle to Malin Head, with most colonies in Co. Galway, Co. Mayo and Co. Donegal. Inland it can breed on islands in lakes where it has declined. These declines, like those of inland breeding Black-headed Gulls, have been attributed to predation by American Mink, reaching previously safe nesting areas (per Birdwatch Ireland). This photograph was taken at Cuskinny Marsh Nature Reserve in Cobh, Co. Cork. A great place to see gulls up close in winter.

COMENTARIO DE UNA OBRA DE ARTE: PIRÁMIDE ESCALONADA DE ZÓSER

 

1) IDENTIFICACIÓN

 

- Título de la obra: Pirámide de Zoser

- Autor: Imhotep.

- Cronología: 2665 - 2645 a. C.

- Período histórico: Primeras civilizaciones o civilizaciones hidráulicas.

- Estilo: Arte Egipcio.

- Escuela: Imperio Antiguo (2.700 – 2.200 a. C.), III dinastía (2700 - 2630 a. C.).

- Localización: Necrópolis de Saqqara.

 

2) ANÁLISIS

 

Nos encontramos ante la vista exterior de una pirámide de enormes proporciones, bien que con una distribución armoniosa de sus volúmenes. La obra emplea como material bloques de caliza silícea, extraídos de canteras próximas, unidos con argamasa; el exterior se revistió con piedra caliza, de grano fino, de un espesor medio de dos metros.

 

La estructura del edificio presenta una gran simplicidad: se trata de seis troncos de pirámides superpuestos de tamaño decreciente, sin rampas, vanos, contrafuertes ni ningún elemento constructivo destacable. El interior es completamente macizo, porque de otra forma peligraría la estabilidad del edificio.

 

La Pirámide de Saqqara es de planta ligeramente rectangular; los lados de su base miden 121 por 109. Se eleva hasta alcanzar los 60 metros de altura.

 

La tumba del faraón se encuentra bajo la pirámide, en estancias subterráneas. En concreto, la cámara del sarcófago de Zoser se encuentra al fondo de un pozo vertical, de 28 m. de profundidad. De ella parte un laberinto de corredores y habitaciones, en parte inacabado, sin parangón en ninguna otra pirámide del Imperio Antiguo.

 

Al igual que otras pirámides, esa edificación estaba asociada a otras construcciones de carácter funerario. En el caso que comentamos, nos encontramos ante un monumental complejo. El conjunto arquitectónico estaba rodeado por una muralla de piedra realzada con contrafuertes y bastiones y decorada con falsas puertas. En su interior destaca un amplio patio, una serie de edificios con cuidadas fachadas, pero con el interior completamente macizo y un intrincado sistema de galerías subterráneas y almacenes. Se trataba de una imitación de la residencia real de Menfis, bien que la original estaba realizada en adobe, madera y materiales perecederos, mientras que el simulacro empleó la piedra como elemento de construcción.

 

Saqqara forma parte de la inmensa necrópolis de Menfis, que se extendía a lo largo de más de 30 kilómetros al oeste de la capital del imperio y que agrupa los conjuntos funerarios (ordenados de norte a sur) de Abu Rawash, Guiza, Zauiyet el Aryan, Abu Gorab, Abusir, Saqqara y Dashur. A veces se incluye en este conjunto, el yacimiento de Meidum, aunque propiamente no pertenece a la necrópolis menfita.

 

El diseño de la pirámide experimentó transformaciones sustanciales a lo largo de sus obras. Primeramente se edificó una mastaba que se amplió en dos ocasiones y, posteriormente, se alzó una pirámide escalonada sobre ella que quedó integrada en la actual, más alta y ancha. Por tanto se distinguen cinco fases constructivas, o más bien seis, pues se incorporaron las tumbas de la familia real y se inició el complejo funerario.

 

Recordemos que los antiguos egipcios creían en la vida de ultratumba, existencia que quedaba garantizada si el cadáver se conservaba seguro. Se enterraba a los muertos con ajuares funerarios para que nada les faltara en la otra vida y además se les destinaban ofrendas. Estas creencias explican la importancia que concedieron a sus tumbas.

 

En cuanto a su interpretación religiosa, la pirámide por una parte recuerda al túmulo, evocando la piedra o colina que emergió de las aguas primordiales, y al mismo tiempo, presenta un simbolismo ascensional, como de escalera hacia el cielo. Se vincula a las creencias de los sacerdotes de Heliópolis según las cuales el faraón, a su muerte, se reunía o quizás de identificaba con la divinidad solar Ra.

 

Se comprende que el culto al Astro Rey y la veneración hacia l Faraón estaban unidos de forma indisoluble. Cuando sobrevino la crisis religiosa que los disoció, se extinguió la cuarta dinastía, los templos solares se construyeron en un lugar distinto a las pirámides y éstas presentaron dimensiones cada vez más exiguas y materiales más deleznables.

 

Constructivamente, las pirámides se originan a partir de las mastabas, tumbas prismáticas en forma de banco. De hecho la pirámide que comentamos no es otra cosa que seis mastabas superpuestas. Posteriormente se edificaron pirámides acodadas en las que las caras están conformadas con dos pendientes, de inclinación decreciente, y, más tarde, se erigieron las pirámides llamadas clásicas de caras lisas y de inclinación uniforme.

 

Antiguamente se creía que las pirámides fueron levantadas por esclavos, pero hoy sabemos que se edificaban por hombres libres, normalmente campesinos que se encontraban desocupados en la estación de la crecida del Nilo. Esto explica que su construcción se prolongase durante todo el reinado del faraón. Obviamente, el monarca encargaba el monumento y destinaba grandes recursos para que la obra llegara a buen término.

 

Se ha conservado el nombre de algunos de los arquitectos de las pirámides, pero parece que se trataba más bien del visir o primer ministro del faraón, puesto que la organización de las obras requería tanta atención como la propia construcción. Recordemos que los artistas en Egipto, como en el resto de civilizaciones antiguas, se le consideraba un artesano más y carecía de toda consideración social. El constructor de esta pirámide, Imhotep, fue visir del faraón, sumo sacerdote de Heliópolis y escritor. Posteriormente recibió culto como deidad de la medicina y la sabiduría.

 

3) CONTEXTUALIZACIÓN

 

El arte egipcio está dominado por la preocupación de la vida de ultratumba y por la necesidad del culto a los dioses cuyo último descendiente es el faraón reinante. Por ello buscan la eternidad y el colosalismo en sus realizaciones arquitectónicas y la majestuosidad en sus imágenes mediante una serie de fórmulas fijas (frontalidad, inmovilidad, hieratismo…). La preponderancia de lo sobrenatural y de lo sagrado, sumado al poder absoluto del faraón, explican que el arte egipcio rehúya la innovaciones y que evolucione muy lentamente.

 

El marco geográfico del arte egipcio es el valle del Nilo. Su cronología se desarrolla entre el 3000 y el 500 a. C., En su evolución temporal destacan las siguientes fases:

 

- El Imperio Antiguo (2.700 – 2.200 a. C.).

- El Imperio Medio (2.000 – 1750 a. C.).

- El Imperio Nuevo (1.550 – 1.070 a. C.).

 

La civilización egipcia tenía su base en la agricultura, por lo que su supervivencia dependía de la crecida del Nilo. Se trataba de una sociedad fuertemente jerarquizada, muy inmovilista y en la que el monarca, el faraón, detentaba un poder absoluto. El arte egipcio se convirtió en un eficaz vehículo de la autoridad del faraón y de las peculiares creencias religiosas de este pueblo.

 

El Imperio Antiguo (2700-2200 a.C.) se desarrolla entre la III y la VI Dinastías. La capital se situaba en el norte, en Menfis, y los monarcas mantuvieron un poder absoluto sobre un gobierno sólidamente unificado. Éste había evolucionado hacia un sistema teocrático, en donde el faraón era considerado un dios en la tierra, por lo que gozaba de un poder absoluto. Muestra del poder real es la construcción de las grandes pirámides de Saqqara y Gizá, obra de los faraones de la III y IV dinastía.

COMENTARIO DE UNA OBRA DE ARTE: PIRÁMIDES DE GUIZA

 

1) IDENTIFICACIÓN

 

- Título de la obra: Pirámides de Guiza.

- Autores: Desconocido.

- Cronología: 2.589 – 2.500 a. C.

- Período histórico: Primeras civilizaciones o civilizaciones hidráulicas.

- Estilo: Arte Egipcio.

- Escuela: Imperio Antiguo (2.700 – 2.200 a. C.), IV dinastía (2630 – 2500 a. C.).

- Localización: en la meseta de Guiza, a unos 20 km. de El Cairo, Egipto.

 

2) ANÁLISIS

 

La imagen nos muestra una vista aérea de la necrópolis de Guiza en la que destacan las tres grandes pirámides (La de Micerinos en primer plano, la de Kefrén en el centro y la de Keops al fondo). También se observan tres pirámides secundarias y otros enterramientos. El nombre de los arquitectos se desconoce, bien que se ha identificado al visir o responsable de las obras de la Gran Pirámide: Hemon o Hemiunu.

 

Las pirámides principales presentan unas dimensiones colosales. La de Micerinos (en egipcio Menkaura) se elevaba hasta los 66 metros (reducidos hoy a 61), la de Kefrén (Jafra) se alzaba hasta los 143 metros (actualmente 136) y la de Keops (Khufu) superaba la cota de los 146 metros (136 metros en la actualidad).

 

Como se observa en la fotografía, la de Kefrén parece ser la mayor. Este efecto es debido a que se encuentra situada en un nivel más alto de la meseta, y a que presenta un ángulo más inclinado en sus caras. También se puede comprobar que esta pirámide conserva su cúspide, mientras que la de Keops se ha desmoronado. Por ello, actualmente la más alta es la pirámide de Kefrén.

 

Aunque mucho menores (unos 9 metros de altura), las pirámides satélites o subsidiarias muestran un tamaño, cuando menos, respetable. Señalar que aunque se comprueban notables deterioros, el conjunto se mantiene en buen estado de conservación.

 

Según se observa en la fotografía, las pirámides mayores y una de las subsidiarias pertenecen al tipo denominado «clásico», con las caras lisas y una inclinación uniforme. Las dos pirámides secundarias restantes se clasifican como «escalonadas», presentando cuatro pisos, bien que la del extremo izquierdo ha perdido el nivel superior. Al fondo se observan una serie de restos de enterramientos. Se trata de mastabas, esto es sepulturas de planta rectangular y estructura trapezoidal que albergaban una cámara subterránea.

 

En las pirámides se empleó como material de construcción bloques de piedra esmeradamente cortados y pulidos. Se hallan colocados a hueso, esto es sin emplear argamasa. Para el relleno se recurrió a piedra caliza extraída de la propia meseta de Guiza. Para el recubrimiento exterior y las paredes de los pasillos y cámaras se escogió caliza de las canteras de Tura (emplazada a unos 13 kilómetros de distancia) y con granito rosado y rojo procedente de Asuán (situado a unos 850 kilómetros de distancia).

 

En su estructura interna la pirámide de Keops alberga tres cámaras: una subterránea a la que conduce un pasaje descendente y que quedó inconclusa; la cámara de la reina, situada entre la base y el centro de la pirámide, y que fue usada para guardar la figura del faraón, la sede del ka. Finalmente se llega a la cámara del Rey en la que se depositó el sarcófago y que se halla emplazada en el corazón del monumento. Las dos últimas cámaras están comunicadas por un corredor ascendente llamado la Gran Galería.

 

La pirámide de Kefrén presenta una distribución más sencilla, con un corredor que desciende hacia una cámara subterránea y luego vuelve a subir para llegar a la cámara funeraria situada en la base del monumento.

Por su parte, la pirámide de Micerinos consta de una antecámara y de una cámara funeraria situadas en la base de la construcción, y el correspondiente pasaje descendente. Existe un corredor que parte de la antecámara y que se eleva hasta el corazón de la pirámide, pero esta obra fue abandonada.

 

En cuanto a su interpretación religiosa, la pirámide por una parte recuerda al túmulo, evocando la piedra o colina que emergió de las aguas primordiales, y al mismo tiempo, presenta un simbolismo ascensional, como de escalera hacia el cielo. Se vincula a las creencias de los sacerdotes de Heliópolis según las cuales el faraón, a su muerte, se reunía o quizás de identificaba con la divinidad solar Ra. Se comprende que el culto al Astro Rey y la veneración hacia l Faraón estaban unidos de forma indisoluble. Cuando sobrevino la crisis religiosa que los disoció, se extinguió la cuarta dinastía, los templos solares se construyeron en un lugar distinto a las pirámides y éstas presentaron dimensiones cada vez más exiguas y materiales más deleznables.

 

Como se observa en la imagen, las pirámides estaban acompañadas por otras construcciones:

 

- Templo del Valle: Construido junto al Nilo, era el lugar donde se recibía a la momia del faraón.

- Calzada: Camino que comunicaba el templo del valle con la pirámide.

- Templo funerario: Servía para realizar rendir culto permanente al faraón.

- Pirámides de las reinas o pirámides subsidiarias para los familiares del faraón.

- Mastabas de cortesanos y altos funcionarios.

 

Hay que sumar la Esfinge de Guiza, montículo esculpido y cuyo rostro parece ser el de Kefrén, las murallas que acotaban el recinto de cada pirámide y, por último, espacios diferenciados para artesanos, constructores, sacerdotes y el cuerpo de guardia, con sus almacenes correspondientes. La necrópolis de Guiza, por tanto, es un conjunto arquitectónico para vivos y muertos, con las dimensiones y el planteamiento urbanístico de una ciudad de medianas dimensiones.

 

Guiza forma parte de la inmensa necrópolis de Menfis, que se extendía a lo largo de más de 30 kilómetros al oeste de la capital del imperio y que agrupa los conjuntos funerarios (ordenados de norte a sur) de Abu Rawash, Guiza, Zauiyet el Aryan, Abu Gorab, Abusir, Saqqara y Dashur. A veces se incluye en este conjunto, el yacimiento de Meidum, aunque propiamente no pertenece a la necrópolis menfita.

COMENTARIO DE UNA OBRA DE ARTE: EL GRAN SPEO DE ABU SIMBEL

 

1) IDENTIFICACIÓN

 

- Título de la obra: Gran Speo de Abu Simbel

- Autor: Desconocido.

- Cronología: 1244 a. C.

- Período histórico: Imperio Nuevo (1.550 – 1.070 a. C.), XI dinastía (1295 – 1186 a. C.).

- Estilo: Arquitectura Egipcia.

- Escuela: Imperio Nuevo ((1.550 - 1070 a. C.)

- Localización: Abu Simbel, Nubia (Sur de Egipto).

 

2) ANÁLISIS

 

Nos encontramos ante la fachada de un templo egipcio. Se trata de una obra de enorme dimensiones, bien que con una cuidada disposición de sus volúmenes. Aunque se observa importantes deterioros, el estado de conservación se puede considerar como muy bueno.

 

La fachada se encuentra rehundida en el frente de un acantilado, lo que revela que no se edificó, sino que se esculpió directamente en la roca, de tal forma que su material constructivo más que piedra, es realmente hueco. Este tipo de arquitectura se conoce como «arquitectura rupestre» o «arquitectura troglodítica» y se considera una combinación de arquitectura y de escultura, tanto en su planteamiento como en su técnica. Así no se añaden elementos, sino que se excavan o retiran, de forma semejante a como trabaja un escultor. Igualmente, y a diferencia de las técnicas constructivas usuales, la obra se empieza desde la cúspide y se progresa hasta el suelo.

 

Conviene recordar que estos monumentos, como todas las obras de la antigüedad, se cubrían con un enlucido y se policromaban con vivos colores.

 

La obra forma parte del conjunto de siete templos erigidos en Nubia, al sur de Egipto, entre la primera y la segunda catarata de Nilo. Este territorio se encontraba en la frontera meridional de los dominios del faraón y se cree que, aparte de motivaciones religiosas, el propósito del templo era impresionar a las tribus rebeldes y reforzar la influencia egipcia en la región. Se sabe que fue mandada construir por el faraón Ramsés II, de la XIX dinastía, tal vez como conmemoración de su triunfo en la batalla de Kadesh. En su construcción se siguió el esquema de los speos o templos enteramente subterráneos. Consta que las obras se prolongaron durante veinte años (1264 – 1244 a. C.). El devastador terremoto de 1210 a. C. es el responsable del derribo de unos de sus colosos.

 

La fachada reproduce, en parte, el frontispicio de los templos egipcios. Sus dimensiones son 33 metros de altura por 38 metros de ancho. Los cuatro colosos (unos 20 metros de altura) representan a Ramsés II, sentado en un trono con la doble corona del Alto y Bajo Egipto. A los pies de estas efigies hay otras estatuas, de mucha menor altura, que representan a su esposa favorita Nefertari, la reina madre Tuya y a parte de la numerosa descendencia del faraón.

 

Entre los colosos se abre una monumental entrada adintelada. Por encima de ella se abrió una gran hornacina con la estatua erguida de Ra-Horajti, deidad solar con cabeza de halcón. Esta imagen se halla flanqueada por dos efigies, en bajorrelieve, que muestran a Ramsés II en actitud orante. Por último, a manera de cornisa, la fachada está coronada por dos frisos de jeroglíficos y una hilera de 22 babuinos.

 

La parte interior del templo presenta, igualmente, una disposición similar a la de los templos, con habitaciones de tamaño decreciente a medida que se acercan al santuario. Estas estancias son la sala hipóstila, el vestíbulo, la sala de las ofrendas y el santuario.

 

En la sala hipóstila destacan los ocho grandes pilares osiriacos y los bajorrelieves dedicados a las campañas militares desarrolladas durante el reinado de Ramsés II. Las más conocidas son las escenas referidas a la batalla de Qadesh, librada junto al río Orontes en Siria. En este histórico combate el faraón derrotó a los hititas. Otros relieves muestran triunfos sobre los libios y los nubios.

 

A continuación se dispuso una segunda sala, el vestíbulo, con cuatro pilares decorados con imágenes en relieve de distintos dioses. Esta sala se comunica a través de tres puertas con una angosta estancia que servía de sala de ofrendas. Mediante otras tres puertas, alineadas con las anteriores, se accede a dos reducidas capillas y al santuario o sancta sanctorum, emplazado en el eje longitudinal del monumento, Allí se encuentran las esculturas talladas en la roca de cuatro figuras sentadas: Ra-Horajti, el deificado Ramsés, y los dioses Amón y Ptah. Se comprende que estas deidades, y el propio Ramsés, eran los titulares del templo.

 

El templo fue construido con tal orientación que durante los días 21 de octubre y 21 de febrero, al amanecer, los rayos del sol naciente cruzaban la puerta, la sala hipóstila, el vestíbulo y llegaba al santuario, iluminando durante unos minutos a las estatuas sedentes, excepto la efigie del dios Ptah, dios vinculado a las tinieblas.

 

Por último, existen una serie de alargadas estancias laterales, a las que se accede desde la sala hipóstila. A la derecha se encuentran cuatro habitaciones y a la izquierda solamente dos, pues la obra quedó inconclusa. Se supone que estas salas sirvieron como habitaciones auxiliares del templo, como depósitos de los objetos del culto. Con todo, algunos especialistas creen que pudieron servir de capillas.

 

La obra que comentamos estaba asociado a otro speo con el que formaba un complejo. Esta segunda obra es conocida como «el templo menor» porque sus proporciones son más reducidas y su distribución interior resulta más sencilla. Está dedicado a la diosa Hathor y a Nefertari, la esposa favorita de Ramsés.

 

Se desconoce cuando estos monumentos fueron abandonados. Su excelente estado de conservación se debe a que la arena acabó por cubrirlos en su mayor parte. Abu Simbel quedó completamente olvidado hasta que en 1813 el suizo Johann Ludwig Burckhardt lo descubrió. Cuatro años más tarde el explorador italiano Giovanni Belzoni despejó la entrada y pudo acceder al interior. Con todo, las célebres acuarelas del pintor escocés David Roberts muestran que en 1838 el templo continuaba prácticamente sepultado bajo la arena.

 

Como es conocido, estos templos fueron desmontados y reconstruidos entre 1964 y 1968 en un nuevo emplazamiento para que no quedara sumergido bajo las aguas de la presa de Asuán. La nueva ubicación se situaba a unos 210 metros más allá del río y 65 metros más arriba respecto al solar original.

 

3) CONTEXTUALIZACIÓN

 

El arte egipcio está dominado por la preocupación de la vida de ultratumba y por la necesidad del culto a los dioses cuyo último descendiente es el faraón reinante. Por ello buscan la eternidad y el colosalismo en sus realizaciones arquitectónicas y la majestuosidad en sus imágenes mediante una serie de fórmulas fijas (frontalidad, inmovilidad, hieratismo…).

El arte egipcio se convirtió en un eficaz vehículo de la autoridad del faraón y de las peculiares creencias religiosas de este pueblo.

 

En el Imperio Nuevo (1.550 – 1.070 a. C.) Egipto rompe su aislamiento tradicional y mantiene una activa política exterior que le hace llevar sus fronteras hasta Nubia y Siria. Es el periodo de construcción de los grandes templos de Luxor y Karnak en Tebas. En el devenir de este período destaca la figura del faraón Amenofis IV – Akenatón, que intentará cambiar la religión politeísta por un culto monoteísta al dios Atón. Esta revolución religiosa careció de continuidad y sus sucesores reinstauraron los dioses y rituales tradicionales.

La pintura que preside esta serie de comentarios es Vista del Templo de Isis en Filé del alemán Carl Friedrich Heinrich Werner. Se trata de una acuarela sobre cartón pintada en 1865. A no dudar se trata de una vista tomada del natural. Las medidas de esta pintura son 37.2 × 64.3 cm.

 

La acuarela se encuentra firmada y fechada en el extremo inferior derecho: C.Werner. Philae 21 Jan. 1865.

 

La obra pertenece a la colección del Muzeum Narodowe w Warszawie [Museo Nacional de Varsovia] (Varsovia, Voivodato de Mazovia Polonia). Consta que entre 1880 y 1945 figuró entre los fondos del desaparecido Schlesisches Museum der bildenden Künste (Museo de Bellas Artes de Silesia) de Breslau / Breslavia, cuando esta ciudad pertenecía a la Silesia Alemana (rebautizada como Alta Silesia entre 1919 y 1938). Tras la Segunda Guerra Mundial, la región pasó a Polonia y la ciudad fue rebautizada como Wroclaw. Por su parte, el museo había sido completamente arruinado en el asedio de la ciudad en 1945 por las tropas soviéticas. Al año siguiente el cuadro pasó a la colección del Museo Nacional de Varsovia, donde actualmente se conserva.

Chimera 2795 Speed Ring modified with 3 additional Stroboframe Shoes, which are attached with Allen Set Screws to keep them firmly in place.

 

This set up allows me to use (4) Nikon speedlights in a medium (3x4') or large (4x6') Chimera softbox. If I use a small (2x3') Chimera, I can only fit 2 speedlights in it.

  

I've been asked before, "...how do you attach your softbox to the stand and the flashes?"

Well... here's the big secret - I attach it with a:

Chimera 2795 Speed Ring for Canon and Nikon Speedlites

Stroboframe Shoe - General Purpose with 1/4" Thread and Screw

Bogen / Manfrotto 2905 - Swivel Umbrella Adapter

- I replaced the Reversible male stud 3107 that comes with the Swivel Umbrella Adapter, and instead use a Bogen Manfrotto 2971 Camera_Stud as it does not have the hole in it like the 3107 Reversible male stud does, so when you tighten down the part, it stays where you put it and does not move at all, and I like that.

 

I leave the Camera Stud attached to the speedring at all times, because if I'm going to use it, it will be put onto the Swivel Umbrella Adapter anyway, or I'll have an assistant hold it, so then it does not matter if the stud is attached.

 

On the Chimera 2795 Speedring:

One day I was using mine on a very windy day, and the aluminum post that holds the ring in place sheared off with the force of the wind, so I had Tempe Camera put in an Allen Set Screw and now it is extremely sturdy.

 

Some people would argue, "...why do this? It's easier to just buy an Alien Bee and have one light" and I agree in some cases it would be, but this is a light weight enough set up I can throw in a back pack and hike with if I need, and I already owned the speedlights, so no additional costs were involved, and it's nice to have extra speedlights on architectural jobs, etc, to place under or behind chairs...

 

--

 

I did a test with the Minolta Flash Meter IV:

(4) Nikon speed lights (2 SB-26, 1 SB-800, 1 SB-80DX) all set to 1/2 power.

Inside a medium (3x4) Chimera softbox (with the baffle inside).

 

ISO 200, 250th/sec, the meter reads:

f/16.3 at 3'

f/11.8 at 4'

f/11.3 at 5'

f/8.02 at 8'

f/5.6.6 at 10'

 

In bright sunshine, the sunny 16 rule would be ISO 200 = 250th/sec @ f/16.

 

...so this system is lacking slightly if you are trying to underexpose the background a stop in bright sunshine, but certainly capable of balancing daylight exposure if you can keep the strobe between 3-4 feet away from the subject.

Música cristiana | Dios es el único Soberano del destino del hombre

 

www.kingdomsalvation.org/es/videos/sole-sovereign-of-mans...

I

No importa cuán lejos has caminado en tu vida

 

ni cuán anciano seas,

 

no importa cuán largo sea el resto de tu viaje,

 

debes aceptar la autoridad de Dios,

 

tómate en serio saber que Él es tu único Señor.

 

No importa cuán grandes sean tus capacidades,

 

el destino de otros no se puede influenciar,

 

mucho menos orquestarlo, cambiarlo o controlarlo.

 

Sólo el único Dios todo lo dicta,

 

pues sólo Él tiene la autoridad para regir el destino del hombre,

 

y por eso sólo el Creador es el Señor del hombre.

 

II

 

Todos deben saber con claridad

 

que Dios controla el destino humano.

 

Es la clave para conocer la vida humana y la verdad,

 

conocer a Dios cada día.

 

No puedes tomar atajos para alcanzar este objetivo.

 

No importa cuán grandes sean tus capacidades,

 

el destino de otros no se puede influenciar,

 

mucho menos orquestarlo, cambiarlo o controlarlo.

 

Sólo el único Dios todo lo dicta,

 

pues sólo Él tiene la autoridad para regir el destino del hombre,

 

y por eso sólo el Creador es el Señor del hombre.

 

III

 

De la soberanía de Dios, no puedes escapar.

 

Del hombre, Dios el único Señor del destino del hombre.

 

Por eso el hombre no puede dictar su destino;

 

es imposible para él sobrepasarlo.

 

No importa cuán grandes sean tus capacidades,

 

el destino de otros no se puede influenciar,

 

mucho menos orquestarlo, cambiarlo o controlarlo.

 

Sólo el único Dios todo lo dicta,

 

pues sólo Él tiene la autoridad para regir el destino del hombre,

 

y por eso sólo el Creador es el Señor del hombre.

Música cristiana alegre | "Cuando abres tu corazón a Dios" Viendo el amor de Dios

I

Cuando no entiendes a Dios, ni conoces Su carácter,

no podrá abrirse tu corazón de verdad a Dios.

Cuando entiendas a tu Dios,

entenderás qué hay en Su corazón,

y probarás lo que hay en Él con toda atención y fe.

Cuando pruebes el corazón de Dios, poco a poco, día a día,

cuando pruebes lo que hay en Su corazón,

abrirás tu corazón a Él.

II

Si tu corazón le abres de verdad,

si tu corazón le abres de verdad,

verás el desprecio

verás la vergüenza de tu extravagante y egoísta petición.

Si tu corazón le abres de verdad,

si tu corazón le abres de verdad,

verás un mundo infinito en Su corazón,

y en un reino asombroso estarás.

En este reino no hay engaño,

ni trampa, ni oscuridad, ni maldad.

Sólo hay sinceridad y fe; sólo justicia y luz.

III

Él es amor, Él es cuidado, compasión infinita.

En tu vida gozo habrá, cuando a Dios abras tu corazón.

El reino infinito está lleno de Su poder y sabiduría,

también Su autoridad y amor.

Podrás ver lo que Dios tiene y es,

lo que le da gozo y aflicción,

qué le entristece y enoja, todos lo podrán ver,

cuando a Dios abras tu corazón y le invites a entrar.

De “La Palabra manifestada en carne”

Canadian National Railway RDC # CN 1501 at Blue Island, Illinois, USA.

 

On Blue Island:

www.dhke.com/CRJ/blueisland.html

One of the most fascinating rail hotspots anywhere, it's hard to know where to begin a description of it. Let's start by noting that Broadway crosses the entire maze approximately in the middle. Entering from the southeast is the double track CSX (B&OCT) main line coming from Barr Yard. Entering from the south and running alongside CSX for a short distance is the double track Indiana Harbor Belt line from Blue Island Yard. The CSX line then heads directly north into Chicago, while the IHB runs northwest for several miles before heading due north through the western suburbs of Chicago. There is an important crossover between the two lines just south of Broadway. Many CSX trains departing Barr Yard transfer to the IHB at this point, and the northwest line is best thought of as a joint CSX/IHB route. CSX actually owns and maintains the track from here to a point a few miles south of LaGrange, Illinois, but IHB dispatches it and is otherwise responsible for its operation. From there north to the line's terminus at Franklin Park, Illinois, IHB owns the line outright.

 

Entering from the south and heading in a northerly direction into Chicago is the double track Canadian National (ex-GTW) mainline, which crosses the joint line just north of Broadway. Entering the junction from the southwest, and about 30 yards west of CN, is a single track line used by Iowa Interstate and once in a great while by CSX and Chicago Rail Link. This line extends north from the junction and feeds into the joint line. Trains using it sometimes back down the joint line to access Barr and Blue Island Yards. Between the CN and IAIS lines is a connector track, providing access to a small CN yard just south of the junction. This connector has seen increased traffic recently--CN trains often use it to access the joint line, on which they now have trackage rights.

  

If the above were all there was, Blue Island would be a great place for trains. But there's more: at the south end of the plant, the Metra (ex-Rock Island) line crosses over the whole mess (Metra is the Chicago commuter train authority and they own the Rock Island tracks between Chicago and Joliet, Illinois). At the southwest corner of the junction, the IAIS track at the west end climbs up to connect with the Metra line.

 

Roughly 90 to 100 trains plow through the junction on a typical day, not counting the commuter trains and occasional freights on the overhead line. The joint line sees the most action, but CSX and CN are busy lines as well. A small tower on Broadway in the middle of the junction houses the crossing gates operator. The interlocking tower is at the far north end of the junction across the Calumet Sag Channel and is clearly visible from Broadway. All of the tracks at the junction cross the channel on rugged, formidable truss bridges that look like they were built a thousand years ago (and are good for another thousand as well). The bridges on the north and the overhead Rock Island tracks on the south make Blue Island unique among busy junctions here or anywhere else.

Renault 5

 

"El Renault 5, conocido popularmente como R-5 en su primera generación, y como Supercinco en la segunda, es un automóvil de turismo del segmento B producido por el fabricante francés Renault entre 1972 y 1996.

Fue fabricado principalmente en su país de origen, Francia; en Valladolid (1972-1984) y después Palencia (Supercinco), España; y en la planta de la empresa gubernamental Dina-Renault-Jeep en Ciudad Sahagún, México de 1975 a 1984. Casi 5,5 millones de unidades del Renault 5 fueron fabricadas."

(...)

 

El Renault 5 en España

 

"El primer modelo fabricado en España, en la factoría de Valladolid, fue el 950, basado en el TL francés, con motor de 956 cc.

A partir de 1974, la gama se desdobló en 950 y TL, únicamente en base al equipamiento.

Tras desaparecer el 950 poco después, en 1975 se unió a la gama el GTL, con motor de 1037 cc, sustituido más adelante por otro de 1108 cc.

También en 1975 se lanzó la versión semideportiva TS (Tourisme Sport), con motor de 1289 cc, 64cv y carburador Weber-Bressel de doble cuerpo, siendo entonces en cierto modo considerado como un compacto deportivo de lujo. Con esta versión, conocidos pilotos españoles como Carlos Sáinz o Jesús Puras se iniciaron en el mundo de los rallys.

La última versión lanzada al mercado fue el TX (sustituyendo al TS) y llevaba un motor de 1.397 cc, 63 cv y un carburador vertical Weber 32-DIR 100, de dos cuerpos."

Renault 5, el “Supercar”

 

"El Renault 5 aparece por primera vez en 1972, bajo la denominación de “Supercar”, en un anuncio hecho con la técnica del dibujo animado. El diseño moderno y original del coche, con sus formas redondeadas, suponen una verdadera revolución."

 

Versiones del Renault 5

 

- "El Renault 5 estuvo disponible inicialmente en dos versiones. R5-L con motor de 782 cm3 y 36 CV, el mismo que equipara el Renault 4. R5-TL, con motor de 956 cm3 y 47 CV, el mismo que el del Renault 8. El R5-TL se comercializaba con un equipamiento superior (limpiaparabrisas de dos velocidades, bandeja trasera y reposabrazos, entre otros refinamientos)."

 

- "En 1974 se comercializó una versión deportiva denominada R5-LS, con un motor de 1.289 cm3 y 64 CV DIN, con un equipamiento considerado de gama alta. Este modelo dispuso al año siguiente de asientos integrales."

 

- "En 1976 se comercializaron dos versiones.

Por una parte, la versión GTL, con la misma cilindrada del LS y con una potencia de 42 CV DIN. Este modelo estrenó las bandas de protección lateral realizadas en el mismo material que los paragolpes.

El otro modelo fue la gran revelación del año: el Renault 5 Alpine, que con su motor de 1.397 cm3 disponía de la nada desdeñable cifra de 90 CV de potencia. El R5 Alpine montaba un paragolpes delantero con faros antiniebla integrados y unas llantas especiales."

 

- "En 1977 se sustituyó el motor de la versión L por otro de 845 cm3 y 36 CV DIN. también por estas fechas, el Renault 5 Alpine fue equipado con las llantas de tres aperturas de otro modelo mítico, el Alpine A 310."

 

- "El Renault 5 automático apareció en 1978, con un motor de 1.300 cm3 de 55 CV y el peculiar techo de vinilo."

 

- "La versión de 5 puertas llega en 1979, junto con una remodelación de la parte más baja de la gama (L, TL y Société), a los que se muscula con un motor de 1.108 cm3 y 45 CV de potencia, además de incorporar un cuadro de instrumentos termo-moldeado y asientos nuevos."

 

- "Aunque tal vez 1979 pase a la historia de este modelo por la aparición de una auténtica bomba: el Renault 5 Turbo..."

 

- "Llegamos a la década de los 80, y en 1982 se comercializa el Renault 5 TX, una versión de lujo previa a las denominadas Baccara.

En este mismo año, el Renault 5 Alpine se equipa con un turbo Garret que traslada la potencia de los 93 a los 110 CV."

 

- "En 1984 todas las versiones base (TL, GTL, GTS y TSE) cambian su nombre por el de Lauréate, es el último año de producción en Francia y aparece el Supercinco, la segunda generación del Renault 5, modelo de nombre y aspecto similar, pero con una concepción distinta..."

Este coche fue el más vendido en Francia durante 10 años (1974-1983).

La versión TL fue la más comercializada, con 239.513 ejemplares en 1980 (el 79,75% de toda la gama).

 

La producción total en el mercado español entre los años 1972 y 1985 fue de 1.080,956 unidades, siendo 1981 el año en el que más unidades se vendieron, con un total de 150.288 unidades."

Renault 5

 

"La Renault 5 est une automobile française, produite en deux générations distinctes.

Cet article concerne la première génération, qui a été produite en France à l'usine de Flins proche de Mantes dans le département des Yvelines, et à Valladolid (Espagne).

 

En janvier 1972, la marque investit le marché de la mini, ce qu'elle n'avait jamais fait auparavant. La Renault R5 fut désignée ainsi parce qu'elle était équipée d'un moteur de 5 chevaux fiscaux.

 

La Renault 5 va connaître un grand succès. En 1980, grâce à l'apport de sa version 5-portes lancée en juillet 1979, sa part du marché français des voitures neuves sera de 16 %. Elle est la voiture la plus vendue en France durant dix ans, de 1974 à 1983.

La Peugeot 205, qui lui ravira ensuite la première place du marché français, ne fera après pas mieux que 12,8 % en 1985. En 1972, la concurrente de la Renault 5 est la Peugeot 104."

(...)

 

"Le style dû à Michel Boué est le point fort de la Renault 5, les deux grandes portes sont sans poignées apparentes, allégeant la ligne.

 

La Renault 5 est la première voiture à être équipée de boucliers en polyester armé à la place des habituels pare-chocs chromés. Elle innove aussi en proposant un hayon arrière qui s'ouvre jusqu'au pare-chocs, pour la première fois sur une petite voiture, ce que tous les autres constructeurs copieront. Le coffre a une contenance de 270 dm3 et s'agrandit jusqu'à 900 dm3 quand la banquette arrière est rabattue.

 

La 5 hérite de la plate-forme, des suspensions à barres de torsion et des moteurs à arbre à cames latéral (782 à 1 397 cm3) de la Renault 4, ce qui permet un prix contenu. Le levier au tableau de bord est à commande directe car il passe au-dessus du moteur jusqu'à la boîte de vitesses montée longitudinalement à l'extrême avant.

En 1973, un levier de vitesses au plancher sera proposé sur la R5 TL."

(...)

 

La gamme

 

- "La gamme commence [1972] avec une version L qui reprend le moteur 4 CV de 782 cm3 (« moteur Billancourt ») de la Renault 4. Pour 1977, la Renault 5 L s'appellera simplement Renault 5 en recevant le « moteur Billancourt » 845 cm3 de la Renault 6."

 

- "La 5 TL propose le moteur 5 CV de 956 cm3 à cinq paliers issu de la Renault 8 (« moteur Cléon-Fonte »)... Clignotants avant blancs pour 1973 jusqu'en 1978... Pour 1979, les enjoliveurs de roue sont supprimés."

 

- "En avril 1974, apparaît la 5 LS (155 km/h), équipée d'un 1 289 cm3 développant 64 ch, de roues de style, d'un essuie-glace arrière et d'un échappement arrière (il est latéral sur les versions L et TL)... La 5 LS deviendra 5 TS dans la gamme 1975... Pour 1977, elle possèdera des vitres arrière entrouvrables."

 

- "En février 1976, la 5 GTL adopte le moteur 1 289 cm3 retravaillé pour consommer très peu d'essence (4,7 L/100 selon le constructeur). La 5 GTL se singularise par les bandeaux latéraux de protection en polyester prolongeant les pare-chocs, les roues de style et les feux de recul. Pour 1978, elle possèdera des vitres arrière entrouvrables.

La 5 GTL va devenir la plus vendue des Renault 5."

 

- "En mars 1976, est lancée la 5 Alpine qui atteint 175 km/h. Elle dispose d'un moteur 1 397 cm3 qui développe 93 ch et de la boîte de vitesses à cinq rapports de la Renault 16 TX.

La 5 Alpine est reconnaissable à sa décoration spécifique « A5 » sur les flancs, le hayon et le nez du capot, à ses pare-chocs noirs avec spoiler avant et projecteurs antibrouillard incorporés, à son rétroviseur extérieur en forme d'obus et à ses jantes en tôle de type Gordini..."

 

- En janvier 1978, la 5 Automatic 1300 s'équipe d'une boîte de vitesses automatique, d'un toit en vinyle noir (..,) de jantes de style, ainsi que de boucliers et de bandeaux latéraux de protection noirs. En février 1981, la cylindrée passe de 1 289 cm3 à 1 397 cm3."

 

- "Sur la base de la 5 TL, une 5 Société à deux places a existé, elle comportait des panneaux latéraux tôlés à l'arrière, rapidement remplacés en série par des vitres."

 

- "En juillet 1979, la Renault 5 est déclinée en variante cinq portes. Celles-ci sont identiques à celles de la Fasa-Renault Siete espagnole, une 5 à quatre portes avec une malle arrière et des pare-chocs chromés. Sur la cinq portes, la planche de bord, le volant et les sièges sont aussi nouveaux. Le moteur des 5 TL et 5 GTL passe à 1 108 cm3."

 

- "La Renault 5 à cinq portes va être une auto-école très populaire. Succédant à la Simca 1000, la 5 Auto-école se démarque de la 5 TL par ses bandeaux latéraux de protection et ses feux de recul supplémentaires."

 

- "À partir de septembre 1981, le carburateur de la 5 Alpine est aspiré par un turbocompresseur : la 5 Alpine Turbo (110 ch) dépasse 185 km/h. Elle reçoit des jantes spécifiques à ailettes. À partir de la fin 1983, le modèle pour la Suisse adopte une vanne EGR pour respecter les normes antipollution.

À partir de mars 1984, la 5 Alpine Turbo devient la 5 Lauréate Turbo."

 

- "En octobre 1981, une version luxueuse de la 5 TS à trois portes est proposée, elle s'appelle 5 TX. Elle est dotée d'une direction assistée, de lève-vitres électriques, d'un volant et d'un pommeau de levier de vitesse gainé de cuir, d'une banquette rabattable par moitié, d'un coffre entièrement moquetté et d'un pré-équipement radio.

Il existe aussi une 5 TX à boite automatique..."

 

- "Pour 1983, les boucliers anthracite sont généralisés."

 

- "La Renault 5, après neuf années consécutives en tête du marché français, de 1974 à 1983, terminera sa carrière fin 1984 sous le nom de 5 Lauréate comme version d'accès au côté de la nouvelle Supercinq.

Cette remplaçante n'osera pas s'écarter du style si réussi de la première version."

according to www.histclo.com/gender/color.html ...

Gender and Color

 

Some authors use the modern associations between colors and genders as a way of determining gender in old paintings. There is much reason to believe, however that the blue-for-boys, pink-for-girls idea is a fairly modern one, even a 20th-century convention. Other colors such as the idea that wedding dresses must be white are fairly recent, many dating to the Victorian era.

Chronology

 

I'm not positive just when the color conventions for children developed. Despite the very strong modern color associations, available evidence suggests that it was not until well into the 20th Century that our modern pattern became fixed. Many such conventions were set during the Victorian era, but the modern gender associations with color does not appear to be one of them. While I have little information at this time, it is a subject I plan to pursue.

Specific Colors

 

The most widely held modern color convention is of course pink for girls and blue for boys. This association has not always been accepted and it appears to be a relatively modern one.

 

Blue

 

Blue was used for boys' charity school uniforms in the 17th Century. This was not because blue had any special significance, but in part because blue dyes, relatively easy to produce, were inexpensive. The Blue Coat schools are renowed to this day. Blue at times has been widely worn by girls. Some considered it more suitable for girls as it is a softer, more subdued color. Blue is also the color most associated with the Virgin Mary. In the Middles Ages, blue was often associated with true lovers and faithful servants. At the turn of the 19th Cenntury, blue was the preferred color for girls' waistbands on white Empire dresses.

 

Pink

 

HBC has noted pink used for children's clothes as early as the 18th century. We do not, however, yet fully understand the gender connotations. We have noted pink use in paintings and variety of observations. At one point pink was considered more of a boy's color, as a watered-down red, which is a fierce color) and blue was morefor girls. The associate of pink with bold, dramatic red clearly affected its use for boys. An American newspaper in 1914 advised mothers, "If you like the color note on the little one's garments, use pink for the boy and blue for the girl, if you are a follower of convention." [The Sunday Sentinal, March 29, 1914.] A woman's magazine in 1918 informed mothers, "There has been a great diversity of opinion on the subject, but the generally accepted rule is pink for the boy and blue for the girl. The reason is that pink being a more decided and stronger color is more suitable for the boy, while blue, which is more delicate and dainty, is pertier for the girl." [Ladies Home Journal, June, 1918] This undoubteldy strikes modern readers as very surprising indeed. Some sources suggest it was not until the 1940s that the modern gender associations with color became universally accepted.

Red

 

Laura Ingalls Wilder's in her Little House books talks in great detail about her upbringing in the 1870s-80s. Her blonde younger sister always had blue hair-ribbons and brunette Laura always had red, because apparently it was an accepted convention that blondes wore blue and brunettes red. I have tried to assess the colors in the hairbows worn by boys. Most appear to be white, but there are colored ones and some do appear to be red. A HBC reader tells us, "My Grandmother told me of time when Red dresses were a boys color and girls wore blue dresses girls. My whole life the boys' color was and still is blue.

NOTE:

Most of the above 160 Romanian women, in the best tradition of versatility, are true polymaths and therefore nearly each one of them falls in more than just one category, often three or more. This explains why adding the numbers of the 57 individual categories bears no relation to the actual total of the above 160 women included in Blouse Roumaine.

Ομιλία του Θεού | Η υπόσταση του Χριστού είναι η υποταγή στο θέλημα του Επουράνιου Πατέρα (Απόσπασμα Α')

Ο Παντοδύναμος Θεός λέει: «Ο ενσαρκωμένος Θεός ονομάζεται Χριστός και ο Χριστός είναι η σάρκα ντυμένη με το Πνεύμα του Θεού. Η σάρκα αυτή διαφέρει από κάθε άνθρωπο που είναι από σάρκα. Η διαφορά αυτή οφείλεται στο ότι ο Χριστός δεν είναι από σάρκα και αίμα, αντιθέτως είναι η ενσάρκωση του Πνεύματος. Διαθέτει και κανονική ανθρώπινη φύση, αλλά και ολοκληρωμένη θεϊκή φύση. Κανένας άνθρωπος δεν έχει τη θεϊκή Του φύση. Η κανονική ανθρώπινη φύση Του υποστηρίζει όλες τις κανονικές δραστηριότητές Του στη σάρκα, ενώ η θεϊκή Του φύση εκτελεί το έργο του Θεού του ίδιου. Και η ανθρώπινη αλλά και η θεϊκή Του φύση υποτάσσονται στο θέλημα του επουράνιου Πατέρα. Η υπόσταση του Χριστού είναι το Πνεύμα, δηλαδή η θεϊκή φύση. Επομένως, η υπόστασή Του είναι αυτή του Θεού του ίδιου. Η υπόσταση αυτή δε διακόπτει το ίδιο Του το έργο, ενώ ο ίδιος δε θα μπορούσε ποτέ να κάνει κάτι που θα κατέστρεφε το ίδιο Του το έργο, ούτε και θα ξεστόμιζε ποτέ λόγια που αντιτίθενται στο ίδιο Του το θέλημα. Επομένως, ο ενσαρκωμένος Θεός ουδέποτε θα εκτελούσε έργο που θα διέκοπτε την ίδια Του τη διαχείριση. Αυτό πρέπει να καταλάβουν όλοι οι άνθρωποι. Η ουσία του έργου του Αγίου Πνεύματος είναι η σωτηρία του ανθρώπου και γίνεται για χάρη της ίδιας της διαχείρισης του Θεού. Παρομοίως, το έργο του Χριστού είναι η σωτηρία του ανθρώπου και γίνεται για χάρη του θελήματος του Θεού. Δεδομένου ότι ο Θεός ενσαρκώνεται, υλοποιεί την υπόστασή Του εντός της σάρκας Του, έτσι ώστε η σάρκα Του να επαρκεί για να αναλάβει το έργο Του. Επομένως, ολόκληρο το έργο του Πνεύματος του Θεού αντικαθίσταται από το έργο του Χριστού κατά την περίοδο της ενσάρκωσης, ενώ στον πυρήνα όλου του έργου καθ’ όλη την περίοδο της ενσάρκωσης βρίσκεται το έργο του Χριστού. Δεν μπορεί να συνδυαστεί με το έργο οποιασδήποτε άλλης εποχής. Και εφόσον ο Θεός ενσαρκώνεται, εργάζεται υπό την ταυτότητα της σάρκας Του· εφόσον έρχεται στη σάρκα, τελειώνει στη σάρκα το έργο που οφείλει να εκτελέσει. Και το Πνεύμα του Θεού και ο Χριστός είναι ο Θεός ο ίδιος και Αυτός εκτελεί το έργο που οφείλει να εκτελεί και ασκεί τη διακονία που οφείλει να ασκεί».

I need to shoot something new. I haven't shot anything beyond snapshots in what feels like forever (but in reality is a little over a week I think).

 

My photoshop has been playing up the last few days. Basically I can do anything with it as long as what I need isn't on the toolbar. I can only use whats in the drop down menus. Makes masking a big no no as well as a lot of other things which I use to edit (clone and heal come to mind)!! So all of the editing on this was done from the drop down menus. There was another pic I was editing and wanted to crop but couldn't. Boohoo :(

 

X Factor visit talk (feel free to skip):

I went to watch the X Factor auditions earlier in the week. They're having them with a live audience this year and I just so happened to have been on the reserve list for tickets. After waiting for 3 hours in the queue to get in, we finally made it in. Seats were pretty decent - the fact we could actually sit (after 3 hrs of standing) was godly. In 4 hours of show recording, we got to see about 20 people! Rubbish! Although on the shows it seems like the judges are super harsh and unforgiving, in reality they let almost everyone perform more than 1 song and they actually had discussions with the auditionees. Some things were said clearly for how they would be in the editing process for telly but that's to be expected. Surprisingly, most people who auditioned got through. There were a few people who were extremely talented and 1 bimbo type girl who turned out to have one of the best voices of the night!! Anyway that was it and you read it :-P haha

 

p.s. (added Jan 2010) the bimbo girl turned out to be Stacey

Nailing it

 

Sometimes you get what you deserve

Sometime you don’t

But come what may

Destiny does not lie waiting

For you

It is forged

Is a matter of your own doing

Your obstinate

Persistent

Effort

Your faith

And your sense of justice

 

You do what must be done

And Lady Luck be damned

She is fickle

Unreliable

And not worth waiting for

And the doing is what matters

Not the reward

The payoff

Or the jackpot

 

You do what must be done

As you see it

You seize the tiller

The hammer

And each day

Pointing into the wind

Nailing what needs nailing

Getting on with life

Making good things happen

Why build an automotive museum? Because one way or another, our lives are touched by the automobile. We remember our parents’ cars, the ones we traveled in with family, the ones we borrowed for our first car date, the first ones we bought. The fast cars, the junkers, the modified ones and the ones we rebuilt—all of them are tied to us in memory. We even dream of cars.

 

William E. Backer, former owner of Backer Potato Chip Company in Fulton, Missouri, looked back in time and found that a vintage automobile was a thing of fascination. His memories were of old country roads and two lane highways. Bill Backer was an engineer and a builder who loved to tinker. Having built a successful potato chip company, he looked back at the cars that were part of his childhood. Shortly after, he owned a Canadian 1924 Dodge Touring. Dark blue with black fenders and a cloth top. Bill drove his family around the back country roads of Callaway County, Missouri and felt himself touching fading memories.

 

Not long after he collected the Dodge, Bill had a 1909 Ford Model T. Soon after that, a 1930 Model A. Then a 1929 Cord, a 1931 Rolls Royce Phantom II, a 1957 Chevy Bel Air, and so on. By the mid 1990’s, the number of classic autos in the collection neared 100. Bill found a home for many of his classic cars in an old retail building in Fulton. The Auto World Museum Foundation was formed and a classic car museum was opened to the public. Ten years later, in 2006, the automobile museum was moved to its current home at 200 Peacock Drive in Fulton. It is a building dedicated to the history of vintage and modern automobiles as well as the history of Callaway County and Fulton, Missouri.

 

After his passing in 2008, his daughter, Vicki McDaniel, assumed leadership of the museum and the collection of cars. Since then, the collection of vintage autos has changed a little. However, her primary passion is for the presentation of antique cars and modern ones in a place that everyone can visit.

 

The presentation of cars and staging of the museum is the vision of Tom K. Jones, Artistic Director of TKJ Designs in Fulton, Missouri. His concept for the museum was a movement through time and a portrayal of the history of Callaway County, Missouri. Auto World Museum is a stage—a movement through history. Its deep black curtains, scenes from back when, panels of advertising and memorabilia will take you through a history of motion in time. At first, you will visit a period not that long ago, although some say 100 years is a long time. As you move in a clockwise direction through the museum, you will find enticing displays. The simplicity of family drives in the convertible. The decadence of Hollywood and its fancy cars. The sights and sounds of the drive-in as you watched from the comfort of your Studebaker or Corvair. You will ponder when gas prices were really, really low. Finally, you will find yourself nearing the future, with displays of alternative fuel vehicles.

 

Auto World Museum will spark your curiosity. We hope that you will find that our collection of vintage and modern automobiles fascinates you the way that it did Bill Backer. We hope you will continue the journey with us as we add to the collection over time. We would like to thank William Harrison for his dedication to the research on the autos in the museum.

Star Trek: The Motion Picture (Paramount, 1979).

putlocker.bz/watch-star-trek-the-motion-picture-online-fr... Full Feature

 

Starring William Shatner, Leonard Nimoy, DeForest Kelley, James Doohan, George Takei, Majel Barrett, Walter Koenig, Nichelle Nichols, Persis Khambatta, Stephen Collins, Grace Lee Whitney, Mark Lenard. Directed by Robert Wise.

  

In Klingon space, three Klingon battle cruisers encounter a huge cloud-like anomaly. On the bridge of one of the ships, the captain (Mark Lenard) orders his crew to fire torpedoes at it, but they have no effect. The ships take evasive action.

 

Meanwhile, in Federation space, a monitoring station, Epsilon 9, picks up a distress signal from one of the Klingon ships. As the three ships are attempting to escape the cloud, energy beams shoot out and engulf each ship one by one, and they vanish. On Epsilon 9, the crew tracks the course of the cloud and discovers that it is headed for Earth.

 

On Vulcan, Spock (Leonard Nimoy) has been undergoing the kohlinahr ritual, in which he has been learning how to purge all of his emotions, and is nearly finished with his training. A female Vulcan Master (Edna Glover), surrounded by two men, is about to give him an ornate necklace as a symbol of pure logic, when Spock holds out his hand to stop her. Confused, she mind-melds with him and senses a consciousness calling to him from space that is affecting his human side. She drops the necklace. "You have not yet achieved kohlinahr. You must look elsewhere for your answer," she says as they leave Spock. "You will not find it here."

 

In San Francisco, Admiral James T. Kirk (William Shatner) arrives at Starfleet Headquarters in a shuttlecraft. He sees Commander Sonak (Jon Rashad Kamal), a Vulcan science officer who is joining the Enterprise crew and recommended for the position by Kirk himself. Kirk is bothered as to why Sonak is not on board yet. Sonak explains that Captain Willard Decker (Stephen Collins), the new captain of the Enterprise, wanted him to complete his science briefing at Headquarters before they left on their mission. The Enterprise has been undergoing a complete "refitting" for the past 18 months and is now under final preparations to leave, which would take at least 20 hours, but Kirk informs him that they only have 12. He tells Sonak to report to him on the Enterprise in one hour; he has a short meeting with Admiral Nogura and is intent on being on the ship.

 

Kirk transports to an office complex orbiting Earth and meets Montgomery Scott (James Doohan), the Enterprise's chief engineer. Scotty expresses his concern about the tight departure time. The cloud is less than three days away from Earth, and the Enterprise has been ordered to intercept it because they are the only ship in range. Scotty says that the refit can't be finished in 12 hours, and tries to convince him that the ship needs more work done as well as a shakedown cruise. Kirk insists that they are leaving, ready or not. They board a travel pod and begin the journey over to the drydock in orbit that houses the Enterprise.

 

Scotty tells Kirk that the crew hasn't had enough transition time with all the new equipment and that the engines haven't even been tested at warp power, not to mention that they have an untried captain. Kirk tells Scotty that two and a half years as Chief of Starfleet Operations may have made him a little stale, but that he wouldn't exactly consider himself untried. Kirk then tells a surprised Scotty that Starfleet gave him back his command of the Enterprise. Scotty doubts it, saying that he doesn't think it was that easy with Admiral Nogura, who gave Kirk his orders. They arrive at the Enterprise, and Scotty indulges Kirk with a brief tour of the new exterior of the ship.

 

Upon docking with the ship, Scotty is summoned to Engineering. Kirk goes up to the bridge, and is informed by Lt. Uhura (Nichelle Nichols) that Starfleet has just transferred command from Captain Decker over to him. Kirk finds Decker in engineering, whom is visibly upset when Kirk breaks the news that he is assuming command, but recognizes it is because Kirk has more experience. Decker will remain on the ship as 2nd officer. As Decker storms off, an alarm sounds. Someone is trying to beam over to the ship, but the transporter is malfunctioning. Kirk and Scotty race to the transporter room. Transporter operator Janice Rand (Grace Lee Whitney) is frantically trying to tell Starfleet to abort the transport, but it is too late. Commander Sonak and an unknown female officer are beaming in, but their bodies aren't re-forming properly in the beam. The female officer screams, and then their bodies disappear. Starfleet signals to them that they have died. Kirk tells Starfleet to express his sympathies to their families.

 

In the corridor, Kirk sees Decker and tells him they will have to replace Commander Sonak and wants another Vulcan. Decker tells him that no one is available that is familiar with the ship's new design. Kirk tells Decker he will have to double his duties as science officer as well.

 

In the recreation room, as Kirk briefs the assembled crew on the mission, they receive a transmission from Epsilon 9. Commander Branch (David Gautreaux) tells them they have analyzed the mysterious cloud. It generates an immense amount of energy and measures 2 A.U.s (300 million km) in diameter. There is also a vessel of some kind in the center. They've tried to communicate with it and have performed scans, but the cloud reflects them back. It seems to think of the scans as hostile and attacks them. Like the Klingon ships earlier, Epsilon 9 disappears.

 

Later on the bridge, Uhura informs Kirk that the transporter is working now. Lt. Ilia, (Persis Khambatta), a bald being from the planet Delta IV, arrives. Decker is happy to see her, as they developed a romantic relationship when he was assigned to her planet several years earlier. Ilia is curious about Decker's reduction in rank and Kirk interrupts and tells her about Decker being the executive and science officer. Decker tells her, with slight sarcasm, that Kirk has the utmost confidence in him. Ilia tells Kirk that her oath of celibacy is on record and asks permission to assume her duties. Uhura tells Kirk that one of the last few crew members to arrive is refusing to beam up. Kirk goes to the transporter room to ensure that "he" beams up.

 

Kirk tells Starfleet to beam the officer aboard. Dr. Leonard "Bones" McCoy (DeForest Kelley) materializes on the platform. McCoy is angry that his Starfleet commission was reactivated and that it was Kirk's idea for him to be brought along on the mission. His attitude changes, however, when Kirk says he desperately needs him. McCoy leaves to check out the new sickbay.

 

The crew finishes its repairs and the Enterprise leaves drydock and into the solar system. Dr. McCoy comes up to the bridge and complains that the new sickbay is nothing but a computer center. Kirk is anxious to intercept the cloud intruder, and orders Hikaru Sulu (George Takei) to go to warp speed. Suddenly, the ship enters a wormhole, which was created by an engine imbalance, and is about to collide with an asteroid that has been pulled inside. Kirk orders the phasers to be fired on it, but Decker tells Pavel Chekov (Walter Koenig) to fire photon torpedoes instead. The asteroid and the wormhole are destroyed. Annoyed, Kirk wants to meet with Decker in his quarters. Dr. McCoy decides to go along.

 

Kirk demands an explanation from Decker. Decker pointed out that the redesigned Enterprise channeled the phasers through the main engines and because they were imbalanced, the phasers were cut off. Kirk acknowledged that he had saved the ship; however, he accuses Decker of competing with him. Decker tells Kirk that, because of his unfamiliarity with the ship's new design, the mission is in jeopardy. Decker tells Kirk that he will gladly help Kirk understand the new design. Kirk then dismisses him from the room. In the corridor, Decker runs into Ilia. Ilia asked if the confrontation was difficult, and he tells her that it was about as difficult as seeing her again, and apologizes. She asked if he was sorry for leaving Delta IV, or for not saying goodbye. He said that if he had seen her again, would she be able to say goodbye? She says "no," and walked around him and entered her quarters nearby.

 

Back in Kirk's quarters, McCoy accuses Kirk of being the one who was competing, and the fact that it was Kirk who used the emergency to pressure Starfleet into letting him get command of the Enterprise. McCoy thinks that Kirk is obsessed with keeping his command. On Kirk's console viewscreen, Uhura informs Kirk that a shuttlecraft is approaching and that the occupant wishes to dock. Chekov also pipes in and replies that it appears to be a courier vessel. Kirk tells Chekov to handle the situation.

 

The shuttle approaches the Enterprise from behind, and the top portion of it detaches and docks at an airlock behind the bridge. Chekov is waiting by the airlock doors and is surprised to see Spock come aboard. Moments later, Spock arrives on the bridge, and everyone is shocked and pleased to see him, yet Spock ignores them. He moves over to the science station and tells Kirk that he is aware of the crisis and knows about the ship's engine design difficulties. He offers to step in as the science officer. McCoy and Dr. Christine Chapel (Majel Barret Roddenberry) come to the bridge to greet Spock, but Spock just stares alarmingly at their emotional outburst. Spock leaves to discuss fuel equations with Scotty in engineering.

 

With Spock's assistance, the engines are now rebalanced for full warp capacity. The ship successfully goes to warp to intercept the cloud. In the officers lounge, Spock meets with Kirk and McCoy. They discuss Spock's kohlinahr training on Vulcan, and how Spock broke off from his training to join them. Spock describes how he sensed the consciousness of the intruder, from a source more powerful that he has ever encountered, with perfect, logical thought patterns. He believes that it holds the answers he seeks. Uhura tells Kirk over the intercom that they have visual contact with the intruder.

 

The cloud scans the ship, but Kirk orders no return scans. Spock determines that the scans are coming from the center of the cloud. Uhura tries sending "linguacode" messages, but there is no response. Decker suggests raising the shields for protection, but Kirk determines that that might be considered hostile to the cloud. Spock analyzes the clouds composition, and discovers it has a 12-power energy field, the equivalent of power generated by thousands of starships.

 

Sitting at the science station, Spock awakens from a brief trance. He reveals to Kirk that the alien was communicating with him. The alien is puzzled; it contacted the Enterprise--why has the Enterprise not replied? A red alert sounds, and an energy beam from within the cloud touches the ship, and begins to overload the ship's systems. Bolts of lightning surround the warp core and nearly injure some engineering officers, and Chekov is also hurt--his hand is burned while sitting at the weapons station on the bridge. The energy beam then disappears. A medical team is summoned to the bridge, and Ilia is able to use her telepathic powers to soothe Chekov's pain.

 

Spock confirms to Kirk that the alien has been attempting to communicate. It communicates at a frequency of more than one million megahertz, and at such a high rate of speed, the message only lasts a millisecond. Spock programs to computer to send linguacode messages at that frequency. Another energy beam is sent out, but Spock transmits a message just in time, and the beam disappears. The ship continues on course through the cloud. They pass through many expansive and colorful cloud layers and upon clearing these, a giant vessel is revealed. It is roughly cylindrical in shape, with large spikes jutting out from the surface at equidistant angles between each other, forming a hexagon-like shape.

 

Kirk tells Uhura to transmit an image of the alien to Starfleet, but she explains that any transmission sent out of the cloud is being reflected back to them. Kirk orders Sulu to fly above and along the top of the vessel. The Enterprise is so small compared to the size of the alien vessel that it appears only as a little white dot next to it. The ship travels past many oddly-shaped structures, including a sunken area where the energy beams originate.

 

An alarm sounds, and yet another energy bolt approaches the ship. It appears on the bridge as a column of bright light that emits a very loud noise. The crew struggles to shield their eyes from its brilliant glow. Chekov asks Spock if it is one of the alien's crew, and Spock replies that it is a probe sent from the vessel. The probe slowly moves around the room and stops in front of the science station. Bolts of lightning shoot out from it and surround the console--it is trying to access the ship's computer. Spock manages to smash the controls to prevent further access, and the probe gives him an electric shock that sends him rolling onto the floor. The probe approaches the helm/navigation console and it scans Lt. Ilia. Suddenly, she vanishes, along with the probe.

 

Ahead of the ship looms another giant section of the vessel. A tractor beam is drawing the Enterprise toward an opening aperture. Decker calls for Chief DiFalco (Marcy Lafferty) to come up to the bridge as Ilia's replacement. The ship travels deep into the next chamber. Decker wonders why they were brought inside--they could have been easily destroyed outside. Spock deduces that the alien is curious about them. Uhura's monitor shows that the aperture is closing; they are trapped. The ship is released from the tractor beam and suddenly, an intruder alert goes off. Someone has come aboard the ship and is in the crew quarters section.

 

Kirk and Spock arrive inside a crewman's quarters to discover that the intruder is inside the sonic shower. It is revealed to be Ilia, although it isn't really her--there is a small red device attached to her neck. In a mechanized voice, she replies "You are the Kirk unit--you will listen to me." She explains that she has been programmed by an entity called "V'Ger" to observe and record the normal functions of the carbon-based units (humans) "infesting" the Enterprise. Kirk opens the shower door and "Ilia" steps out, wearing a small white garment that just materialized around her. Dr. McCoy and a security officer enter the room, and Kirk tells McCoy to scan her with a tricorder.

 

Kirk asks her who V'Ger is. She replies "V'Ger is that which programmed me." McCoy tells Kirk that Ilia is a mechanism and Spock confirms she is a probe that assumed Ilia's physical form. Kirk asks where the real Ilia is, and the probe states that "that unit" no longer functions. Kirk also asks why V'Ger is traveling to Earth, and the probe answers that it wishes to find the Creator, join with him, and become one with it. Spock suggests that McCoy perform a complete examination of the probe.

 

In sickbay, the Ilia probe lays on a diagnostic table, its sensors slowly taking readings. All normal body functions, down to the microscopic level, are exactly duplicated by the probe. Decker arrives and is stunned to see her there. She looks up at him and addresses him as "Decker", rather than "Decker unit," which intrigues Spock. Spock talks with Kirk and Decker in an adjoining room, and Spock locks the door. Spock theorizes that the real Ilia's memories and feelings have been duplicated by the probe as well as her body. Decker is angry that the probe killed Ilia, but Kirk convinces him that their only contact with the vessel is through the probe, and they need to use that advantage to find out more about the alien. Suddenly, the probe bursts through the door, and demands that Kirk assist her with her observations. He tells her that Decker will do it with more efficiency.

 

Decker and Ilia are seen walking around in the recreation room. He shows her pictures of previous ships that were named Enterprise. Decker has been trying to see if Ilia's memories or emotions can resurface, but to no avail. Kirk and McCoy are observing them covertly on a monitor from his quarters. Decker shows her a game that the crew enjoys playing. She is not interested and states that recreation and enjoyment has no meaning to her programming. At another game, which Ilia enjoyed and nearly always won, they both press one of their hands down onto a table to play it. The table lights up, indicating she won the game, and she gazes into Deckers eyes. This moment of emotion ends suddenly, and she returns to normal. "This device serves no purpose."

 

"Why does the Enterprise require the presence of carbon units?" she asks. Decker tells her the ship couldn't function without them. She tells him that more information is needed before the crew can be patterned for data storage. Horrified, he asks her what this means. "When my examination is complete, all carbon units will be reduced to data patterns." He tells her that within her are the memory patterns of a certain carbon unit. He convinces her to let him help her revive those patterns so that she can understand their functions better. She allows him to proceed.

 

Spock slowly enters an airlock room. He sees an officer standing at a console, his back to Spock. Spock quietly approaches him, and gives him the Vulcan nerve pinch to render him unconscious.

 

Decker, the probe, Dr. McCoy, and Dr. Chapel are in Ilia's quarters. Dr. Chapel gives the probe a decorative headband that Ilia used to wear. Chapel puts it over "Ilia's" head and turns her toward a mirror. Decker asks her if she remembers wearing it on Delta IV. The probe shows another moment of emotion, saying Dr. Chapel's name, and putting her hand on Decker's face, calling him Will. Behind them, McCoy reminds Decker that she is a mechanism. Decker asks "Ilia" to help them make contact with V'Ger. She says that she can't, and Decker asks her who the Creator is. She says V'Ger does not know. The probe becomes emotionless again and removes the headband.

 

Spock is now outside the ship in a space suit with an attached thruster pack. He begins recording a log entry for Kirk detailing his attempt to contact the alien. He activates a panel on the suit and calculates thruster ignition and acceleration to coincide with the opening of an aperture ahead of him. He hopes to get a better view of the spacecraft interior.

 

Kirk comes up to the bridge and Uhura tells him that Starfleet signals are growing stronger, indicating they are very close to Earth. Starfleet is monitoring the intruder and notifies Uhura that it is slowing down in its approach. Sulu confirms this and says that lunar beacons show the intruder is entering into orbit. Chekov tells Kirk that Airlock 4 has been opened and a thruster suit is missing. Kirk figures out that Spock has done it, and orders Chekov to get Spock back on the ship. He changes his mind, and instead tells him to determine his position.

 

Spock touches a button on his thruster panel and his thruster engine ignites. He is propelled forward rapidly, and enters the next chamber of the vessel just before the aperture closes behind him. The thruster engine shuts down, and the momentum carries Spock ahead further. He disconnects the thruster pack from his suit and it falls away from him.

 

Continuing his log entry, Spock sees an image of what he believes to be V'Gers home planet. He passes through a tunnel filled with crackling plasma energy, possibly a power source for a gigantic imaging system. Next, he sees several more images of planets, moons, stars, and galaxies stored and recorded. Spock theorizes that this may be a visual representation of V'Gers entire journey. "But who or what are we dealing with?" he ponders.

 

He sees the Epsilon 9 station, and notes to Kirk that he is convinced that all of what he is seeing is V'Ger; and that they are inside a living machine. Then he sees a giant image of Lt. Ilia with the sensor on her neck. Spock decides it must have some special meaning, so he attempts to mind-meld with it. He is quickly overwhelmed by the multitude of images flooding his mind, and is thrown backward.

 

Kirk is now in a space suit and has exited the ship. The aperture in front of the Enterprise opens, and Spock's unconscious body floats toward him. Later, Dr. Chapel and Dr. McCoy are examining Spock in sickbay. Dr. McCoy performs scans and determines that Spock endured massive neurological trauma from the mind-meld. Spock tells Kirk he should have known and Kirk asks if he was right about V'Ger. Spock calls it a conscious, living entity. Kirk explains that V'Ger considers the Enterprise a living machine and it's why "Ilia" refers to the ship as an entity and the crew as an infestation.

 

Spock describes V'Ger's homeworld as a planet populated by living machines with unbelievable technology. But with all that logic and knowledge, V'Ger is barren, with no mystery or meaning. He momentarily lapses into sleep but Kirk rouses him awake to ask what Spock should have known. Spock grasps Kirk's hand and tells him "This simple feeling is beyond V'Ger's comprehension. No meaning, no hope. And Jim, no answers. It's asking questions. 'Is this all that I am? Is there nothing more?'"

 

Uhura chimes in and tells Kirk that they are getting a faint signal from Starfleet. The intruder has been on their monitors for a while and the cloud is rapidly dissipating as it approaches. Sulu also comments that the intruder has slowed to sub-warp speed and is three minutes from Earth orbit. Kirk acknowledges and he, McCoy and Spock go up to the bridge.

 

Starfleet sends the Enterprise a tactical report on the intruders position. Uhura tells Kirk that V'Ger is transmitting a signal. Decker and "Ilia" come up to the bridge, and she says that V'Ger is signaling the Creator. Spock determines that the transmission is a radio signal. Decker tells Kirk that V'Ger expects an answer, but Kirk doesn't know the question. Then "Ilia" says that the Creator has not responded. An energy bolt is released from V'Ger and positions itself above Earth. Chekov reports that all planetary defense systems have just gone inoperative. Several more bolts are released, and they all split apart to form smaller ones and they assume equidistant positions around the planet.

 

McCoy notices that the bolts are the same ones that hit the ship earlier, and Spock says that these are hundreds of times more powerful, and from those positions, they can destroy all life on Earth. "Why?" Kirk asks "Ilia." She says that the carbon unit infestation will be removed from the Creator's planet as they are interfering with the Creator's ability to respond and accuses the crew of infesting the Enterprise and interfering in the same manner. Kirk tells "Ilia" that carbon units are a natural function of the Creator's planet and they are living things, not infestations. However "Ilia" says they are not true life forms like the Creator. McCoy realizes V'Ger must think its creator is a machine.

 

Spock compares V'Ger to a child, and suggests they treat it like one. McCoy retorts that this child is about to wipe out every living thing on Earth. To get "Ilia's" attention, Kirk says that the carbon units know why the Creator hasn't responded. The Ilia probe demands that the Creator "disclose the information." Kirk won't do it until V'Ger withdraws all the orbiting devices. In response to this, V'Ger cuts off the ship's communications with Starfleet. She tells him again to disclose the information. He refuses, and a plasma energy attack shakes the ship. McCoy tells Spock that the child is having a "tantrum."

 

Kirk tells the probe that if V'Ger destroys the Enterprise, then the information it needs will also be destroyed. Ilia says that it is illogical to withhold the required information, and asks him why he won't disclose it. Kirk explains it is because V'Ger is going to destroy all life on Earth. "Ilia" says that they have oppressed the Creator, and Kirk makes it clear he will not disclose anything. V'Ger needs the information, says "Ilia." Kirk says that V'Ger will have to withdraw all the orbiting devices. "Ilia" says that V'Ger will comply, if the carbon units give the information.

 

Spock tells Kirk that V'Ger must have a central brain complex. Kirk theorizes that the orbiting devices are controlled from there. Kirk tells "Ilia" that the information cant be disclosed to V'Ger's probe, but only to V'Ger itself. "Ilia" stares at the viewscreen, and, in response, the aperture opens and drags the ship forward with a tractor beam into the next chamber. Chekov tells Kirk that the energy bolts will reach their final positions and activate in 27 minutes. Kirk calls to Scotty on the intercom and tells him to stand by to execute Starfleet Order 2005; the self-destruct command. A female crewmember asks Scotty why Kirk ordered self-destruct, and Scotty tells her that Kirk hopes that when they explode, so will the intruder.

 

The countdown is now down to 18 minutes. DiFalco reports that they have traveled 17 kilometers inside the vessel. Kirk goes over to Spock's station, and sees that Spock has been crying. "Not for us," Kirk realizes. Spock tells him he is crying for V'Ger, and that he weeps for V'Ger as he would for a brother. As he was when he came aboard the Enterprise, so is V'Ger now--empty, incomplete, and searching. Logic and knowledge are not enough. McCoy realizes Spock has found what he needed, but that V'Ger hasn't. Decker wonders what V'Ger would need to fulfill itself.

 

Spock comments that each one of us, at some point in our lives asks, "Why am I here?" "What was I meant to be?" V'Ger hopes to touch its Creator and find those answers. DiFalco directs Kirk's attention to the viewscreen. Ahead of them is a structure with a bright light. Sulu reports that forward motion has stopped. Chekov replies that an oxygen/gravity envelope has formed outside of the ship. "Ilia" points to the structure on the screen and identifies it as V'Ger. Uhura has located the source of the radio signal and it is straight ahead. A passageway forms outside the ship as Kirk Spock, McCoy, Decker, and "Ilia" enter a turbolift.

 

The landing party exits an airlock on the top of the saucer section and walks up the passageway. At the end of the path is a concave structure, and in the center of it is an old NASA probe from three centuries earlier. Kirk tries to rub away the smudges on the nameplate and makes out the letters V G E R. He continues to rub, and discovers that the craft is actually Voyager 6. Kirk recalls the history of the Voyager program--it was designed to collect data and transmit it back to Earth. Decker tells Kirk that Voyager 6 disappeared through a black hole.

 

Kirk says that it must have emerged on the far side of the galaxy and got caught in the machine planet's gravity. Spock theorizes that the planet's inhabitants found the probe to be one of their own kind--primitive, yet kindred. They discovered the probe's 20th century programming, which was to collect data and return that information to its creator. The machines interpreted that instruction literally, and constructed the entire vessel so that Voyager could fulfill its programming. Kirk continues by saying that on its journey back, it amassed so much knowledge that it gained its own consciousness.

 

"Ilia" tells Kirk that V'Ger awaits the information. Kirk calls Uhura on his communicator and tells her to find information on the probe in the ship's computer, specifically the NASA code signal, which will allow the probe to transmit its data. Decker realizes that that is what the probe was signaling--it's ready to transmit everything. Kirk then says that there is no one on Earth who recognizes the old-style signal--the Creator does not answer.

 

Kirk calls out to V'Ger and says that they are the Creator. "Ilia" says that is not logical--carbon units are not true life forms. Kirk says they will prove it by allowing V'Ger to complete its programming. Uhura calls Kirk on his communicator and tells him she has retrieved the code. Kirk tells her to set the Enterprise transmitter to the code frequency and to transmit the signal. Decker reads off the numerical code on his tricorder, and is about to read the final sequence, but Voyager's circuitry burns out, an effort by V'Ger itself to prevent the last part of the code from being transmitted.

 

"Ilia" says that the Creator must join with V'Ger, and turns toward Decker. McCoy warns Kirk that they only have 10 minutes left. Decker figures out that V'Ger wanted to bring the Creator here and transmit the code in person. Spock tells Kirk that V'Ger's knowledge has reached the limits of the universe and it must evolve. Kirk says that V'Ger needs a human quality in order to evolve. Decker thinks that V'Ger joining with the Creator will accomplish that. He then goes over to the damaged circuitry and fixes the wires so he can manually enter the rest of the code through the ground test computer. Kirk tries to stop him, but "Ilia" tosses him aside. Decker tells Kirk that he wants this as much as Kirk wanted the Enterprise.

 

Suddenly, a bright light forms around Decker's body. "Ilia" moves over to him, and the light encompasses them both as they merge together. Their bodies disappear, and the light expands and begins to consume the area. Kirk, Spock, and McCoy retreat back to the Enterprise. V'Ger explodes, leaving the Enterprise above Earth, unharmed. On the bridge, Kirk wonders if they just saw the beginning of a new life form, and Spock says yes and that it is possibly the next step in their evolution. McCoy says that its been a while since he "delivered" a baby, and hopes that they got this one off to a good start.

 

Uhura tells Kirk that Starfleet is requesting the ship's damage and injury reports and vessel status. Kirk reports that there were only two casualties: Lt. Ilia and Captain Decker. He quickly corrects his statement and changes their status to "missing." Vessel status: fully operational. Scotty comes on the bridge and agrees with Kirk that it's time to give the Enterprise a proper shakedown. When Scotty offers to have Spock back on Vulcan in four days, Spock says that's unnecessary, as his task on Vulcan is completed.

 

Kirk tells Sulu to proceed ahead at warp factor one. When DiFalco asks for a heading, Kirk simply says "Out there, thataway." With that, the Enterprise flies overhead and engages warp drive.

Ralph Rugoff has declared: «May You Live in Interesting Times will no doubt include artworks that reflect upon precarious aspects of existence today, including different threats to key traditions, institutions and relationships of the “post-war order.” But let us acknowledge at the outset that art does not exercise its forces in the domain of politics. Art cannot stem the rise of nationalist movements and authoritarian governments in different parts of the world, for instance, nor can it alleviate the tragic fate of displaced peoples across the globe (whose numbers now represent almost one percent of the world’s entire population).»

Why build an automotive museum? Because one way or another, our lives are touched by the automobile. We remember our parents’ cars, the ones we traveled in with family, the ones we borrowed for our first car date, the first ones we bought. The fast cars, the junkers, the modified ones and the ones we rebuilt—all of them are tied to us in memory. We even dream of cars.

 

William E. Backer, former owner of Backer Potato Chip Company in Fulton, Missouri, looked back in time and found that a vintage automobile was a thing of fascination. His memories were of old country roads and two lane highways. Bill Backer was an engineer and a builder who loved to tinker. Having built a successful potato chip company, he looked back at the cars that were part of his childhood. Shortly after, he owned a Canadian 1924 Dodge Touring. Dark blue with black fenders and a cloth top. Bill drove his family around the back country roads of Callaway County, Missouri and felt himself touching fading memories.

 

Not long after he collected the Dodge, Bill had a 1909 Ford Model T. Soon after that, a 1930 Model A. Then a 1929 Cord, a 1931 Rolls Royce Phantom II, a 1957 Chevy Bel Air, and so on. By the mid 1990’s, the number of classic autos in the collection neared 100. Bill found a home for many of his classic cars in an old retail building in Fulton. The Auto World Museum Foundation was formed and a classic car museum was opened to the public. Ten years later, in 2006, the automobile museum was moved to its current home at 200 Peacock Drive in Fulton. It is a building dedicated to the history of vintage and modern automobiles as well as the history of Callaway County and Fulton, Missouri.

 

After his passing in 2008, his daughter, Vicki McDaniel, assumed leadership of the museum and the collection of cars. Since then, the collection of vintage autos has changed a little. However, her primary passion is for the presentation of antique cars and modern ones in a place that everyone can visit.

 

The presentation of cars and staging of the museum is the vision of Tom K. Jones, Artistic Director of TKJ Designs in Fulton, Missouri. His concept for the museum was a movement through time and a portrayal of the history of Callaway County, Missouri. Auto World Museum is a stage—a movement through history. Its deep black curtains, scenes from back when, panels of advertising and memorabilia will take you through a history of motion in time. At first, you will visit a period not that long ago, although some say 100 years is a long time. As you move in a clockwise direction through the museum, you will find enticing displays. The simplicity of family drives in the convertible. The decadence of Hollywood and its fancy cars. The sights and sounds of the drive-in as you watched from the comfort of your Studebaker or Corvair. You will ponder when gas prices were really, really low. Finally, you will find yourself nearing the future, with displays of alternative fuel vehicles.

 

Auto World Museum will spark your curiosity. We hope that you will find that our collection of vintage and modern automobiles fascinates you the way that it did Bill Backer. We hope you will continue the journey with us as we add to the collection over time. We would like to thank William Harrison for his dedication to the research on the autos in the museum.

Lieut-Cmndr George H. Pownall (Cheltenham College)

25.04.15 Portsmouth Naval Memorial

HMS Egmont

 

The only clue I have as to how he was killed comes in The Naval Review (Vol XLIV no 4 Oct 1956). In an article "The Submarine Passage of the Dardanelles 1915 p424, the writer describes the disastrous landing at 'V' Beach, and describes how he later discovered that Pownall had been killed while in the leading boat during the landing.

 

"Lieut-Commander George Harley Pownall, R.N., who fell during the landing operations in the Dardanells on April 25, was the only son of Frank Pownall, barrister-at-law, and late Registrar of the Royal College of Music, and of Mrs Frank Pownall. He was educated at 'Evelyns' and at Cheltenham Collage, and subsequently went to the Britania, passing in third on the list and passing out first. He served as midshipman in China under Sir Percy Scott in H.M.S. Terrible, and on coming home took his 'five firsts'. He chose the submarine branch of the service and after serving in B1 and having the charge of the A boats at Fort Block House and serving in C9 he was eventually appointed to the Onyx at Plymouth and finally 1st lieutenant to the Egmont, with command of the Malta Submarine Flotilla. He was born on August 30, 1883. In December 1910, he married Vera, daughter of Mr Henry Chichester or Verben, Cullompton, Devon."

He was posted as 'Missing'.

 

"7th Battalion

28th June

Attack. Battn. in Bde Reserve.

Battalion provided fatigue parties nearly all night of 27th-28th (See Appendix I & II) bringing up ammunition to forward S.A.A. “Dumps”. Parties were also detailed to bring up scaling ladders & planks of timber from GULLY RAVINE to the forward trenches. One of these parties under CAPT. R. JOHNSTONE was caught in the Ravine by enemy shrapnel shell-fire & suffered 3 casualties (wounded).

At 11am however, the Battalion was in its allotted position. Soon after 11am the Batt. was sent forward to reinforce the assaulting party & their local reserves who had failed to capture the whole of their objective. 3 Platoons of “A” Coy & 2 Platoons of “D” Coy charged, gaining their objective in the Turks front line, part of H12a, “A” Coy with scarcely a casualty though “D” Coy suffered heavily from rifle, machine gun & shrapnel fire. Later, “B” Coy charged to take H12, but were caught by a battery of Turkish machine guns situated in their support lines behind H12 & only 50 men survived.

LIEUT. COLONEL J.B. WILSON was killed while leading “B” Coy in the charge. Posted as missing, but his body was recovered some months later & buried behind our lines. During the day many attempts were made by the remainder of 7th Sco. Rif. the Royal Scots & the Reserves of 29th Division (5th Royal Scots), to advance up a sap to H12a, but every attempt failed owing to shallowness of trench & enfilade machine gun fire.

BRIGADIER GENERAL SCOTT-MONCRIEFF was killed in one of these attempts to push up the sap.

PTE. R. SNEDDON “A” Coy rendered valuable service by carrying important messages to & from the captured trench. He had to cross over 100 yds. open ground under heavy rifle fire. He was awarded the Distinguished Conduct Medal. 2ND LIEUT E. WATSON was awarded the Military Cross for his work on this date. About 2am. 29th June those of the Batt. in the captured trenches were relieved by Hampshires & Essex & withdrawn to the Reserve Lines. Batt. reorganised."

Capt Frederick G Gudgeon (Cheltenham College)

28.06.15 Helles Memorial

16th Battalion, attached to 2nd Battalion, Royal Fusiliers, 86th Brigade

 

"When the battalion went back to the line once more, on June 23rd, they mustered 13 officers and 667 other ranks. Lieutenant Eustace commanded Y company, Captain Ayrton X and Captain Gudgeon Z. About three days later Captain FitzClarence arrived from England and took over the duties of the second in command.

On the 28th (June) the battalion again attacked, leading the brigade with three companies; and their advance, though successful, was dearly bought. They advanced about 1,000 yards, "a magnificent sight, the men never losing their formation under a heavy artillery and rifle fire." The ground had been carefully ranged and the bulk of the casualties were due to well-placed shrapnel. There were few from rifle fire; but in attempting to round off their achievement in the night the battalion became involved in hand-to-hand fighting. Few details of these encounters have been preserved ; but when the Fusiliers were relieved they were in the last stage of exhaustion. A twenty-four hours' struggle in oppressive heat with hardly any water has its unforgettable terrors.

The actual losses included nine officers: FitzClarence, Ayrton, Andrews killed ; Bulbeck, Freer and Harford wounded ; Gudgeon, Eustace and Willett missing. Of other ranks, 27 were killed, 175 wounded, and 57 missing. Not one of these officers had been with the battalion when it landed in Gallipoli, and the continuity was preserved by an ever-thinning thread. "

Extract from De Ruvigny's Roll of Honour 1914-1918:

"ONSLOW, BRIAN WALTON, Lieut., 11th (King's Edward's Own) Lancers (Probyn's Horse), Indian Army, and A.D.C. to Gen. Sir William Birdwood, yst. s. of the late Col. Gerald Charles Penrice Onslow, Royal Engineers, by his wife, Flora Frances Mary (Camperdown, Crowborough, co. Sussex), dau. of the late William Donald, of Lisle House, Cheltenham; b. Gillingham, co. Kent, 24 Aug. 1892; educ. Cheltenham College and the Royal Military College, Sandhurst; gazetted 2nd Lieut., Unattached List, 6 Sept. 1911; served his first year with the Royal West Kent Regt., passed into the Indian Army, 3 Dec. 1912, and was promoted Lieut. 6 Pee, 1913; took part in the landing at the Dardanelles, 25 April, 1915, and was killed in action there, 28 July, 1915; unm. Buried at Anzac Cove. He was mentioned in Gen. Sir Ian Hamilton's despatch of 22 Sept. [London Gazette. 5 Nov. 1915].

Gen. Sir William Birdwood wrote: “A finer fellow or better example of the true English gentleman never lived. A son of whom any mother must always have been most justly proud. Never out of temper, always doing what he could to help others, able far above the average. I had hoped a brilliant career was in store for him. Every individual here regrets and feels his death. I have lost the best and bravest of officers, the truest and trustiest of friends":

and a brother officer: "Few people could be so ill-spared. I never met or hope to meet a more lovable character; best at everything he ever did, both in work and play, and always so cheerful. I never heard anyone say anything but good of him, and he was quite the most popular officer both with the men and in the mess."

Admiral wrote from the Dardanelles: “He was a splendid young fellow. We on board only knew him for a few months, but in that short time he made himself very popular with us all. Everybody liked him and admired him, and we looked on him as the true ideal of a British soldier. I fully realise what a great loss his services must be to Gen. Birdwood and to the service generally."

And the Principal of Cheltenham College: “He has left an influence and power behind him that many an older man would be proud to leave." While at Cheltenham he won a mathematical scholarship, and was one of the most prominent members of the hockey eleven and football fifteen. He was a keen athlete, a good polo player, pigsticker, golfer, etc. Two of his brothers and two brothers-in-law are (1916) serving either in the Army or Navy. His eldest brother, Lieut.-Commander A. G. Onslow, D.S.C., was killed in action in the Battle of Jutland, 1 June, 1916."

His service record B2455 (AWM) states that he enlisted as Pte 557 Wallace Maude in the 9th LH. They left Melbourne on 11 Feb 1915, as part of the 3rd Light Horse Brigade, sailing on the transport A10, Karroo They arrived in Egypt on 14th March. The Brigade landed at Gallipoli at the end of May, and was attached to the New Zealand and Australian Division. Maude's confirmation in the rank of Sergeant was dated 27 May 1915, after he had reached Gallipoli.

He was promoted to temporary 2nd Lieutenant on 7th August. The 9th LH was the reserve regiment for the Brigade's disastrous attack on the Nek on 7 August, and over the 4 days of fighting lost just 1 officer and 7 other ranks, while a further 2 officers and 26 other ranks were wounded

AWM. Since the officer killed as not Maude, then perhaps he was one of the two wounded officers, and died later.

"Medical Evacuation of Casualties

 

Unique problems were faced at Gallipoli with the treatment and evacuation of wounded and sick troops. The initial amphibious landing was a new development in the history of warfare and this meant that the medical services suffered from a lack of training, knowledge as to what to expect and the type of casualties that would be experienced. This together with lack of planning and problems with communication meant that the medical evacuation of April 25th and following days was a very inadequate service, causing much suffering and criticism on the home front."

Two thousand years ago, the Lord Jesus prophesied, "And at midnight there was a cry made, Behold, the bridegroom comes; go you out to meet him" (Matthew 25:6). "Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me" (Revelation 3:20). For these two thousand years, believers in the Lord have been watching and waiting for the Lord to knock at their door. But how will the Lord knock at our door when He comes again? … In the last days, some people testify that the Lord Jesus has already returned, and He is the incarnated Almighty God, who is doing the judgment work in the last days. This message sends shock waves through the religious world.

 

… The heroine of this film, Yang Aiguang has believed in the Lord for decades, and she has been working and preaching for the Lord enthusiastically and waiting to welcome the return of Him. One day, some people knocked at her door and told Yang Aiguang and her husband a news that the Lord Jesus has returned, and read the words of Almighty God to them. The couple were deeply moved by the words of Almighty God. However, because of being deceived and bound by the fallacies of the pastor and elder, Yang Aiguang drove the preachers of The Church of Almighty God out and slammed the door shut on them. Later on, the preachers came many times to knock at her door, read to her the words of Almighty God and bear witness to the work of Almighty God in the last days. During that period, the pastor disrupted and blocked her time after time, and she had been hesitating. But through listening to the words of Almighty God, Yang Aiguang understood the truth and had the ability to discern the rumors and fallacies of the pastor and elder. She finally saw the way the Lord knocks at people's door when He returns and how to welcome His second coming. … After the dense fog cleared off, Yang Aiguang heard the voice of God and recognized the fact that Almighty God is indeed the returned Lord Jesus.

The American Roots of Nazi Eugenics -> hnn.us/articles/1796.html edwinblack.com/

  

<- By Edwin Black. An excerpt of the article below:

 

Mr. Black is the author of IBM and the Holocaust and the just released War Against the Weak: Eugenics and America's Campaign to Create a Master Race, from which the following article is drawn.

 

Hitler and his henchmen victimized an entire continent and exterminated millions in his quest for a co-called "Master Race."

 

But the concept of a white, blond-haired, blue-eyed master Nordic race didn't originate with Hitler. The idea was created in the United States, and cultivated in California, decades before Hitler came to power. California eugenicists played an important, although little known, role in the American eugenics movement's campaign for ethnic cleansing.

 

Eugenics was the racist pseudoscience determined to wipe away all human beings deemed "unfit," preserving only those who conformed to a Nordic stereotype. Elements of the philosophy were enshrined as national policy by forced sterilization and segregation laws, as well as marriage restrictions, enacted in twenty-seven states. In 1909, California became the third state to adopt such laws. Ultimately, eugenics practitioners coercively sterilized some 60,000 Americans, barred the marriage of thousands, forcibly segregated thousands in "colonies," and persecuted untold numbers in ways we are just learning. Before World War II, nearly half of coercive sterilizations were done in California, and even after the war, the state accounted for a third of all such surgeries.

 

California was considered an epicenter of the American eugenics movement. During the Twentieth Century's first decades, California's eugenicists included potent but little known race scientists, such as Army venereal disease specialist Dr. Paul Popenoe, citrus magnate and Polytechnic benefactor Paul Gosney, Sacramento banker Charles M. Goethe, as well as members of the California State Board of Charities and Corrections and the University of California Board of Regents.

 

Eugenics would have been so much bizarre parlor talk had it not been for extensive financing by corporate philanthropies, specifically the Carnegie Institution, the Rockefeller Foundation and the Harriman railroad fortune. They were all in league with some of America's most respected scientists hailing from such prestigious universities as Stamford, Yale, Harvard, and Princeton. These academicians espoused race theory and race science, and then faked and twisted data to serve eugenics' racist aims.

 

Stanford president David Starr Jordan originated the notion of "race and blood" in his 1902 racial epistle "Blood of a Nation," in which the university scholar declared that human qualities and conditions such as talent and poverty were passed through the blood.

 

In 1904, the Carnegie Institution established a laboratory complex at Cold Spring Harbor on Long Island that stockpiled millions of index cards on ordinary Americans, as researchers carefully plotted the removal of families, bloodlines and whole peoples. From Cold Spring Harbor, eugenics advocates agitated in the legislatures of America, as well as the nation's social service agencies and associations.

 

The Harriman railroad fortune paid local charities, such as the New York Bureau of Industries and Immigration, to seek out Jewish, Italian and other immigrants in New York and other crowded cities and subject them to deportation, trumped up confinement or forced sterilization.

 

The Rockefeller Foundation helped found the German eugenics program and even funded the program that Josef Mengele worked in before he went to Auschwitz.

 

Much of the spiritual guidance and political agitation for the American eugenics movement came from California's quasi-autonomous eugenic societies, such as the Pasadena-based Human Betterment Foundation and the California branch of the American Eugenics Society, which coordinated much of their activity with the Eugenics Research Society in Long Island. These organizations--which functioned as part of a closely-knit network--published racist eugenic newsletters and pseudoscientific journals, such as Eugenical News and Eugenics, and propagandized for the Nazis.

 

Eugenics was born as a scientific curiosity in the Victorian age. In 1863, Sir Francis Galton, a cousin of Charles Darwin, theorized that if talented people only married other talented people, the result would be measurably better offspring. At the turn of the last century, Galton's ideas were imported into the United States just as Gregor Mendel's principles of heredity were rediscovered. American eugenic advocates believed with religious fervor that the same Mendelian concepts determining the color and size of peas, corn and cattle also governed the social and intellectual character of man.

 

In an America demographically reeling from immigration upheaval and torn by post-Reconstruction chaos, race conflict was everywhere in the early twentieth century. Elitists, utopians and so-called "progressives" fused their smoldering race fears and class bias with their desire to make a better world. They reinvented Galton's eugenics into a repressive and racist ideology. The intent: populate the earth with vastly more of their own socio-economic and biological kind--and less or none of everyone else.

 

The superior species the eugenics movement sought was populated not merely by tall, strong, talented people. Eugenicists craved blond, blue-eyed Nordic types. This group alone, they believed, was fit to inherit the earth. In the process, the movement intended to subtract emancipated Negroes, immigrant Asian laborers, Indians, Hispanics, East Europeans, Jews, dark-haired hill folk, poor people, the infirm and really anyone classified outside the gentrified genetic lines drawn up by American raceologists.

 

How? By identifying so-called "defective" family trees and subjecting them to lifelong segregation and sterilization programs to kill their bloodlines. The grand plan was to literally wipe away the reproductive capability of those deemed weak and inferior--the so-called "unfit." The eugenicists hoped to neutralize the viability of 10 percent of the population at a sweep, until none were left except themselves.

 

Eighteen solutions were explored in a Carnegie-supported 1911 "Preliminary Report of the Committee of the Eugenic Section of the American Breeder's Association to Study and to Report on the Best Practical Means for Cutting Off the Defective Germ-Plasm in the Human Population." Point eight was euthanasia.

 

The most commonly suggested method of eugenicide in America was a "lethal chamber" or public locally operated gas chambers. In 1918, Popenoe, the Army venereal disease specialist during World War I, co-wrote the widely used textbook, Applied Eugenics, which argued, "From an historical point of view, the first method which presents itself is execution… Its value in keeping up the standard of the race should not be underestimated." Applied Eugenics also devoted a chapter to "Lethal Selection," which operated "through the destruction of the individual by some adverse feature of the environment, such as excessive cold, or bacteria, or by bodily deficiency."

 

Eugenic breeders believed American society was not ready to implement an organized lethal solution. But many mental institutions and doctors practiced improvised medical lethality and passive euthanasia on their own. One institution in Lincoln, Illinois fed its incoming patients milk from tubercular cows believing a eugenically strong individual would be immune. Thirty to forty percent annual death rates resulted at Lincoln. Some doctors practiced passive eugenicide one newborn infant at a time. Others doctors at mental institutions engaged in lethal neglect.

 

Nonetheless, with eugenicide marginalized, the main solution for eugenicists was the rapid expansion of forced segregation and sterilization, as well as more marriage restrictions. California led the nation, performing nearly all sterilization procedures with little or no due process. In its first twenty-five years of eugenic legislation, California sterilized 9,782 individuals, mostly women. Many were classified as "bad girls," diagnosed as "passionate," "oversexed" or "sexually wayward." At Sonoma, some women were sterilized because of what was deemed an abnormally large clitoris or labia.

 

In 1933 alone, at least 1,278 coercive sterilizations were performed, 700 of which were on women. The state's two leading sterilization mills in 1933 were Sonoma State Home with 388 operations and Patton State Hospital with 363 operations. Other sterilization centers included Agnews, Mendocino, Napa, Norwalk, Stockton and Pacific Colony state hospitals.

 

Even the United States Supreme Court endorsed aspects of eugenics. In its infamous 1927 decision, Supreme Court Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes wrote, "It is better for all the world, if instead of waiting to execute degenerate offspring for crime, or to let them starve for their imbecility, society can prevent those who are manifestly unfit from continuing their kind…. Three generations of imbeciles are enough." This decision opened the floodgates for thousands to be coercively sterilized or otherwise persecuted as subhuman. Years later, the Nazis at the Nuremberg trials quoted Holmes's words in their own defense.

 

Only after eugenics became entrenched in the United States was the campaign transplanted into Germany, in no small measure through the efforts of California eugenicists, who published booklets idealizing sterilization and circulated them to German official and scientists.

 

Hitler studied American eugenics laws. He tried to legitimize his anti-Semitism by medicalizing it, and wrapping it in the more palatable pseudoscientific facade of eugenics. Hitler was able to recruit more followers among reasonable Germans by claiming that science was on his side. While Hitler's race hatred sprung from his own mind, the intellectual outlines of the eugenics Hitler adopted in 1924 were made in America.

 

During the '20s, Carnegie Institution eugenic scientists cultivated deep personal and professional relationships with Germany's fascist eugenicists. In Mein Kampf, published in 1924, Hitler quoted American eugenic ideology and openly displayed a thorough knowledge of American eugenics. "There is today one state," wrote Hitler, "in which at least weak beginnings toward a better conception [of immigration] are noticeable. Of course, it is not our model German Republic, but the United States."

 

Hitler proudly told his comrades just how closely he followed the progress of the American eugenics movement. "I have studied with great interest," he told a fellow Nazi, "the laws of several American states concerning prevention of reproduction by people whose progeny would, in all probability, be of no value or be injurious to the racial stock."

 

Hitler even wrote a fan letter to American eugenic leader Madison Grant calling his race-based eugenics book, The Passing of the Great Race his "bible."

 

Hitler's struggle for a superior race would be a mad crusade for a Master Race. Now, the American term "Nordic" was freely exchanged with "Germanic" or "Aryan." Race science, racial purity and racial dominance became the driving force behind Hitler's Nazism. Nazi eugenics would ultimately dictate who would be persecuted in a Reich-dominated Europe, how people would live, and how they would die. Nazi doctors would become the unseen generals in Hitler's war against the Jews and other Europeans deemed inferior. Doctors would create the science, devise the eugenic formulas, and even hand-select the victims for sterilization, euthanasia and mass extermination."
