Cómo enamorar a una mujer: 10 consejos para lograrlo
10 Consejos de cómo enamorar a una mujer
A muchos hombres se les hace difícil enamorar a una mujer, hablarles, invitarlas a salir y lograr que sean sus novias. Generalmente pasa por el desconocimiento de qué les gusta a las mujeres de un hombre. A continuación les enseñaremos cómo enamorar a una mujer.
#1 Hombre seguro
Despójate de los nervios y trata de estar seguro de ti mismo, demuestra tu carácter, sé un hombre que respeta y que se hace respetar. Tenlo por seguro que ellas preferirán mil veces un hombre con quien sentirse en confianza que tener al frente suyo unos músculos bien definidos.
#2 No mentir nunca
Para una mujer la sinceridad es la cualidad más valiosa que admiran de un hombre. Tampoco debes fingir algo que no eres realmente, muéstrate tal cual. Las mujeres tiene un agudizimo olfato para identificar cuándo un hombre les miente.
#3 Invítala a salir
Toda mujer quedará maravillada si la sorprendes invitándola a salir a un sitio que tú haz escogido, sobre todo si tu tomas el mando de la situación. Llévala a lugares especiales y diferentes así le demostraras con tu esfuerzo lo interesado que estas en ella.
#4 Limpio y bien vestido
Toda mujer se fija hasta en el más mínimo detalle, es importante vestir adecuadamente con una camisa y unos buenos zapatos, además del peinado y la limpieza corporal. Ellas se derriten cuando ven a un chico en camisa.
#5 Hombre de proyectos
Comparte con ella a qué te dedicas y sobre todo qué proyectos tienes para el futuro. Qué aspiraciones tienes tienes en la vida, ello la hará saber que no eres una persona sin metas mi ideales.
#6 No piropos
No caigas en las siempre repetidas frases de amor que se usan comúnmente. No caigas en lo vulgar, si vas a decirle palabras bonitas que salgan corazón, estas deben ser románticas y sutiles. ¡Las tendrás en tus manos!.
#7 Hazla reír
Evita los temas aburridos, hablen de cualquier cosa e identifica qué es lo que le hace reír. Si vez que ella no para de reír, vas por muy buen camino y aunque no lo crees estarás haciendo que ella se enamore de ti.
Cómo enamorar a una mujer: Hazla reír siempre.
#8 Detalles sorpresa
Debes saber que a las mujeres no esperan el regalo más costoso, esperan un detalle hecho por ti mismo en el que hayas invertido tu tiempo y tu cariño en hacerlo. Si es el caso que el presente no es hecho por ti, procura dé en el clavo con lo que a ella le guste, que recuerdes las cosas que le gustan y que dedique tiempo en buscar el adecuado bastará para conquistarla.
#9 Dile lo que sientes
A los hombres por lo general les cuesta decir lo que sienten un “te quiero”, “te amo” o “te extraño”. Dile lo que sientes por ella poco a poco, con tus propias palabras, si te apresuras mucho parecerás desesperado y no queremos eso.
#10 No sexo
Si hay algo que espanta a las mujeres es que en las primeras citas demuestres que quieres tener intimidad con ellas. Pensaran que sólo buscas sexo, las mujeres son muy sensibles respecto a ese tema y opinan que se da en una etapa más avanzada de la relación. ¡Ten mucho cuidado!
Con estos 10 consejos de cómo enamorar a una mujer estas más que preparado para conquistar a cualquier mujer ¡Suerte!

Salkantay Trek to Machu Picchu
5 Days / 4 Nights
Is a trek that takes you through diverse landscapes and altitudes as we trek around the skirts of Mount Salkantay(6271m/20,568ft) and camp within clear sight of the snow capped peak. Ascending to reach the famous Apacheta Pass at 4,600m/15,088ft) and then descent into a more tropical area passing Andenes and Chaullay on the far side of the mountain. Train ride from Hydro Electric Dam and then spend the rest of the 4th evening relaxing in the town and hotsprings of Aguas Calientes. Early 5th morning you take the bus (or walk if desired) up to Machu Picchu your well deserved prize. Late afternoon train and bus back to Cusco in the evening.
This path is well-known as the Salkantay Trek. After the Inca Trail, the Salkantay Trek is the most beautiful and popular one. Indeed, the magazine National Geographic Adventure rated the Salkantay Trek as one of the best 25 treks all over the world.
Salkantay Trek Itinerary
Day 1: Cusco - Mollepata - Soraypampa
We will leave from Cusco approximately between 4:30a.m. and 5:00a.m. A local bus will take us to the town of Mollepata (2900 meters above sea level) where we will arrive approximately at 8:15 in the morning to have breakfast. During the trip we will have panoramic views of the majestic Salkantay, other mountains covered with snow, and the Valley of Apurimac River. We will meet with our support staff, and they will load the equipment on horses and mules. Around 9:00 a.m., we will begin our walk toward Sayllapata (3200 meters above sea level). About 1:00p.m., we will have a Peruvian lunch. After lunch, we will continue hiking toward the Soraypampa villages (3850 meters above sea level). Around 5:30 in the afternoon we will arrive to our camp where the tents will be ready for you as well as your dinner.

Se per curiosità volete fare una prova e chiedere a più di una donna in che modo spenderebbe i propri soldi per una gratificazione personale, potreste rimanere sorpresi. La risposta nella maggior parte dei casi sarà: scarpe. Che siano a stiletto, open toe, ballerine, stivali, sandali, questo accessorio è la passione innata del genere femminile. Dapprima relegate a semplice mezzo per poter camminare, le tendenze nel mondo della calzatura hanno seguito i progressi del mondo femminile all'interno della storia mondiale.
Ora le scarpe parlano della donna che le indossa, diventando sempre di più parte fondamentale nel look che ognuna di noi sceglie per identificarsi. Anzi forse ad oggi le scarpe sono proprio quell'accessorio che fa di ognuna di noi una Donna. Sarà per la scarpetta di Cenerentola, ma ogni volta che una donna indossa un bel paio di scarpe, è come se diventasse un po' "principessa".
Le mode nel settore calzaturiero si sono rincorse e ripetute con accenni sempre attuali al momento storico in cui le scarpe venivano riversate nel mercato. Ma solo negli ultimi decenni le scarpe anche nella moda hanno affermato e conquistato il loro posto in prima fila. Un outfit non sarà mai completo senza un paio di scarpe che ne sottolinei la personalità della donna che lo indossa. Ma veniamo a noi.
Oggi i designers di scarpe subiscono un flusso di contaminazioni da molti settori, dall'arredamento, dal cinema, dalla musica e in commercio si possono trovare stili differenti e forme stravaganti. Nomi di designers di scarpe dapprima sconosciuti, sono diventati famosi a livello mondiale anche grazie a serie televisive come Sex and the City. Chi non ha mai sentito o voluto assolutamente avere un paio di Jimmy Choo? O chi non ha visto ultimamente i programmi di real time dedicati alle mille possibilità di vestirsi, nei quali uno dei diktat più ripetuti è quello di avere assolutamente le scarpe adatte ad ogni momento della giornata, senza mai dimenticare il tacco che alleggerisce e slancia la figura?!
Le tendenze attuali aiutano ogni tipo di donna a trovare la scarpa che meglio la rappresenta. Se siete un tipo romantico e vi piace indossare abiti che richiamino sempre prati fioriti primaverili anche in stagioni non proprio caldissime? Allora non accontentatevi di indossare delle scarpe anonime. Puntate alla perfezione e scegliete tra le proposte dell'ultimo momento come lo stivaletto di seta con zeppa e stampe di fiori di Jil Sander, oppure la scarpa suède e seta di L'Autre Chose.
[caption id="" align="aligncenter" width="400" caption="Jil Sander 2012 - Stivaletti in seta con zeppa e tema floreale"] [/caption]
Siete amanti del lusso e non riuscite a rinunciare a tutto ciò che luccica? Provate il sandalo gioiello di Loriblu, realizzato completamente in pelle di pitone, cinturino staccabile arricchito di diamanti, rubini e diamanti che diventa bracciale. Siete invece delle lavoratrici instancabili ma non per questo volete rinunciare al vostro tocco femminile, pur ostentando uno stile androgino nel vostro outfit? Scegliete tra una francesina di pelle, senza tacco, stringata di Alberto Guardiani oppure la décollettée con fiocco rosso di velluto di Ballin.
[caption id="" align="aligncenter" width="357" caption="Sandali gioiello Loriblu in pelle di pitone"] [/caption]
Qualunque sia il vostro genere o l'occasione d'uso troverete senza alcun sforzo la scarpa che fa per voi, anche semplicemente facendo dapprima una ricerca tramite internet per ridurre al massimo lo spreco di tempo nel cercare il negozio in cui fare shopping.

The Willows at Willow Grove Day Camp is a camp for 3 and 4 year old children. This unique camp experience offers your child an early opportunity to learn and socialize with children their own age.
During the first week of camp, lots of fun was had as the children and counselors got to know each other. “Sun and Surf” was our first week theme. The children really enjoyed decorating their bucket and shovel memo pads during Arts and Crafts. Along with this activity, the Polar Bears and Penguins enthusiastically participated in Nature, Gymnastics, Dance, Tennis and Soccer. We are looking forward to the next seven weeks of fun-filled activities.
Willow Grove Day Camp provides summer fun for kids who live in Willow Grove, Abington, Blue Bell, Hatboro, Horsham, Huntingdon Valley, Lafayette Hill, Philadelphia, Plymouth Meeting, Southampton and the surrounding areas.

MAAM = Museo dell’Altro e dell’Altrove di Metropoliz_città meticcia.
Da streetartattack.blogspot.it/2013/10/district-913-roma.html:
Nato nel 2012, al termine del cantiere cinematografico e d’arte “Space Metropoliz”, il MAAM è un progetto di Giorgio de Finis. Contro-dipositivo situazionista e relazionale, si pone accanto e in concorrenza con le grandi istituzioni museali italiane e della capitale (il MAXXI e il MACRO), facendo della sua perifericità, della sua totale assenza di fondi, della sua non asetticità (il MAAM è un museo abitato) il suo punto di forza. Avviando un nuovo virtuoso rapporto tra arte e città e tra arte e vita, il Metropoliz si sta dotando, grazie al MAAM, di una pelle preziosa e di una collezione che l’aiuteranno a proteggersi dalla minaccia sempre incombente dello sgombero coatto. Il MAAM si prefigge di trasformare l’intera fabbrica occupata in un oggetto e in un soggetto d’arte collettiva. Gli artisti sono invitati a dare il loro contributo gratuitamente, interagendo con lo spazio e con gli abitanti. E non si può dire che non lo stiano facendo.
Oltre i “relitti” di Space Metropoliz (il telescopio di Gian Maria Tosatti, i muri dipinti di Sten & Lex, Lucamaleonte, Mr. Klevra, Hogre, la bandiera di Paolo Assenza, l’orto lunare di Fabio Pennacchia, il grande razzo costruito dagli abitanti della fabbrica occupata con l’aiuto di Stalker), la Pinacoteca Domestica Diffusa, oltre venti opere di arte contemporanea collocate nelle case degli abitanti di Metropoliz e fotografata da Carlo Gianferro, la “Stanza dei Giochi” (intervento site specific per la ludoteca di Metropoliz ad opera di Veronica Montanino e Alice Pasquini), la “Cattedralehouse_room#2” (opere di Cristiano Petrucci, Gianni Asdrubali, Veronica Montanino), il 5 ottobre il MAAM presenterà le nuove acquisizioni e i lavori realizzati nel corso dell’estate.
Le due nuove stanze d’artista, “Windows M” di Maddalena Mauri e ”Where are the flowers gone” di Micaela Lattanzio. L’intervento murario, tutto in polvere di grafite, che Maddalena Mauri realizza per il nuovo spazio galleria di Metropoliz, moltiplica le finestre della grande stanza dove un tempo stagionavano i salami della Fiorucci, invitando il mondo ad entrare. Un auspicio, per la fabbrica occupata, che coincide con il programma di eventi settimanali del nuovo spazio espositivo, uno dei dispositivi che il MAAM ha deciso di attivare per aprire con regolarità il cancello del 913 al quartiere e alla città, riducendo l’effetto enclave che pregiudizio e necessità di difendersi dallo sgombero rischiano di innescare. La porta “a saloon” della galleria che propone un enorme cuore diviso in due è un’opera di Paolo Angelosanto. La stanza di Micaela Lattanzio è invece uno spazio intimo, un invito alla “meditazione”, un’oasi di pace per chi, come il Chaplin di “Tempi moderni”, si trova incastrato ogni giorno nei meccanismi della metropoli (i suoi fiori di carta, oltre seimila, si liberano dagli ingranaggi e volano via…). Un luogo, questa preziosa stanza “fiorita”, che sembra condividere lo spirito delle stanze de Les Nymphéas di Monet all’Orangerie.
“District 913” tira via il telo anche sulla nuova “piazza” realizzata da Massimo Di Giovanni con L.U.N.A. una enorme sfera di ferro e legno che l’artista incastra tra le travi di un tetto crollato, che lo stesso Di Giovanni ha restaurato e messo in sicurezza). L’opera ha voluto rendere un omaggio all’idea della migrazione esoplanetaria alla conquista della luna narrata dalla favola contemporanea “Space Metropoliz” e all’idea che, lavorando tutti insieme, l’Altrove lo si possa alla fine portare sulla Terra. Altre grandi sfere saranno disseminate nella fabbrica da EPVS, a rendere il percorso difficile e claustrofobico (EPVS_ Bubbling 4 you #913# by EPVS).
Molto rilevanti anche i nuovi interventi di street art realizzati a Metropoliz. Dal grande muro d’ingresso sulla via Prenstina, firmato Borondo, e realizzato in collaborazione con la 999 Contemporary, alla meridiana di Rub Kendy (.R.E.V.O.L.U.T.I.O.N.), allo stencil di Lucamaleonte che riproduce, sulla facciata dell’ex-salumificio che guarda ai recenti scavi archeologici del lotto di fronte, il bassorilievo dei Musei Capitolini raffigurante la caccia al cinghiale. E ancora Alice Pasquini, Solo (con “Plan D, last level”), Diamond (con la porta “Welcome to Metropoliz”), Opiemme (“Questo muro ha un nuovo messaggio”). E ancora Giulio Vesprini, Gio Pistone, Cancelletto, omino71.
Tra le nuove opere acquisite dal MAAM segnaliamo quelle di Pablo Echaurren (“Suburbano disumano”), a cura di ARIA [rivista d’artista], Massimo Attardi (“Lang”, un omaggio all’autore di “Metropolis” che strizza l’occhio anche al gioco “facce di luna” di “Space Metropoliz”), Guendalina Salini (che ripropone in collezione permanente l’installazione “Dove comincia il lontano”), gli interventi murari di Marco Tamburro, Seboo Migone, Paolo Assenza, l’opera di Germano Serafini ”Composizione M”, quella di Michela de Mattei “Metropolitz. Pianoterra / piano, Terra” (a cura di Silvia Litardi), il lightbox di Salvatore Mauro “Pianeta dei Naufraghi”, i nuovi interventi di Santino Drago (”Sangue versato in mostra” e “Asilo politico”).
Deep Space - Hubble Photo

FROM NASA:
Called the eXtreme Deep Field, or XDF, the photo was assembled by combining 10 years of NASA Hubble Space Telescope photographs taken of a patch of sky at the center of the original Hubble Ultra Deep Field. The XDF is a small fraction of the angular diameter of the full moon.
The Hubble Ultra Deep Field is an image of a small area of space in the constellation Fornax, created using Hubble Space Telescope data from 2003 and 2004. By collecting faint light over many hours of observation, it revealed thousands of galaxies, both nearby and very distant, making it the deepest image of the universe ever taken at that time.
The new full-color XDF image is even more sensitive, and contains about 5,500 galaxies even within its smaller field of view. The faintest galaxies are one ten-billionth the brightness of what the human eye can see.
This video zooms into the small areas of sky that the Hubble Space Telescope was aimed at to construct the eXtreme Deep Field, or XDF. The region is located in the southern sky, far away from the glare of the Milky Way, the bright plane of our galaxy. In terms of angular size, the field is a fraction the angular diameter of the full moon, yet it contains thousands of galaxies stretching back across time. (Credit: NASA; ESA; and G. Bacon and Z. Levay, STScI)

Magnificent spiral galaxies similar in shape to our Milky Way and the neighboring Andromeda galaxy appear in this image, as do the large, fuzzy red galaxies where the formation of new stars has ceased. These red galaxies are the remnants of dramatic collisions between galaxies and are in their declining years. Peppered across the field are tiny, faint, more distant galaxies that were like the seedlings from which today's magnificent galaxies grew. The history of galaxies -- from soon after the first galaxies were born to the great galaxies of today, like our Milky Way -- is laid out in this one remarkable image.
Hubble pointed at a tiny patch of southern sky in repeat visits (made over the past decade) for a total of 50 days, with a total exposure time of 2 million seconds. More than 2,000 images of the same field were taken with Hubble's two premier cameras: the Advanced Camera for Surveys and the Wide Field Camera 3, which extends Hubble's vision into near-infrared light.

This illustration compares the angular size of the XDF field to the angular size of the full moon. A finger held at arm's length would appear to be about twice the width of the moon in this image. Note that this illustration does not show the actual observation of the XDF relative to the location of the moon. (Illustration Credit: NASA; ESA; and Z. Levay, STScI; Moon Image Credit: T.

"The XDF is the deepest image of the sky ever obtained and reveals the faintest and most distant galaxies ever seen. XDF allows us to explore further back in time than ever before", said Garth Illingworth of the University of California at Santa Cruz, principal investigator of the Hubble Ultra Deep Field 2009 (HUDF09) program.

Illingworth, UCO/Lick Observatory and the University of California, Santa Cruz; R. Bouwens, UCO/Lick Observatory and Leiden University; and the HUDF09 Team)

› More info from HubbleSite.org
The universe is 13.7 billion years old, and the XDF reveals galaxies that span back 13.2 billion years in time. Most of the galaxies in the XDF are seen when they were young, small, and growing, often violently as they collided and merged together. The early universe was a time of dramatic birth for galaxies containing brilliant blue stars extraordinarily brighter than our sun. The light from those past events is just arriving at Earth now, and so the XDF is a "time tunnel into the distant past." The youngest galaxy found in the XDF existed just 450 million years after the universe's birth in the big bang.
Before Hubble was launched in 1990, astronomers could barely see normal galaxies to 7 billion light-years away, about halfway across the universe. Observations with telescopes on the ground were not able to establish how galaxies formed and evolved in the early universe.
Hubble gave astronomers their first view of the actual forms and shapes of galaxies when they were young. This provided compelling, direct visual evidence that the universe is truly changing as it ages. Like watching individual frames of a motion picture, the Hubble deep surveys reveal the emergence of structure in the infant universe and the subsequent dynamic stages of galaxy evolution.
The infrared vision of NASA's planned James Webb Space Telescope will be aimed at the XDF. The Webb telescope will find even fainter galaxies that existed when the universe was just a few hundred million years old. Because of the expansion of the universe, light from the distant past is stretched into longer, infrared wavelengths. The Webb telescope's infrared vision is ideally suited to push the XDF even deeper, into a time when the first stars and galaxies formed and filled the early "dark ages" of the universe with light.
The Hubble Space Telescope is a project of international cooperation between NASA and the European Space Agency. NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Md., manages the telescope. The Space Telescope Science Institute (STScI) in Baltimore, Md., conducts Hubble science operations. STScI is operated by the Association of Universities for Research in Astronomy, Inc., in Washington.

как обшить сайдингом дом sotdel.ru/obshivka-doma-sajdingom.html Советы по строительству дома, #сайдинг #sotdel Обшивка дома сайдингом – ответственный и интересный процесс. С каждой новой панелью облик вашего дома будет быстро меняться. Обшивка дома сайдингом – ответственный и интересный процесс. С каждой новой панелью облик вашего дома будет быстро меняться. Впервые отправляясь в магазин, чтобы выбрать сайдинг для обшивки дома, многие покупатели теряются в выборе. Помимо богатой палитры цветов, их вниманию предлагаются и различные варианты фактур – здесь и «корабельный брус», и «ёлочка», и «блок хаус», и «вертикальный сайдинг». Как выбрать сайдинг? Сайдинг производится из компаунда, основу которого составляет виниловая масса с добавленными в нее пластификаторами, красителями, стабилизаторами цвета и прочими присадками. Рецептура компаунда для внешнего и внутреннего слоя сайдинговой панели различается, поскольку они решают разные задачи. Внешняя сторона панели противостоит выгоранию цвета, шелушению и короблению поверхности, внутренняя отвечает за жесткость материала, устойчивость к перепадам температуры и механическим воздействиям. Две массы компаунда, приготовленные по разным рецептурам, сплавляются методом коэкструзии, таким образом, формируется целостная панель с улучшенными качественными характеристиками внешнего и внутреннего слоя. Если же внутренняя сторона сайдинга светлее наружной – это значит, что производитель в состав компаунда для сайдинга добавил меньше пигмента. Такой сайдинг относится к категории более бюджетных, но при этом может обладать вполне приемлемыми эксплуатационными характеристиками. А вот если панель сайдинга окрашена неравномерно – есть разводы, пятна, отличия в оттенке панелей в рамках одной партии – это однозначно свидетельствует о не самом качественном материале. Чтобы выполнить монтаж блок хауса или других видов сайдинга своими руками, мы рекомендуем внимательно ознакомиться с инструкцией по монтажу, которую вы получите при покупке, а также с видео инструкцией. Следуйте показанным на видео принципам монтажа сайдинга любого вида, включая блок хаус. Если обшиваем сайдингом стены дома или только цоколь или фронтон, то в любом случае придерживаемся основных правил по монтажу этого строительного материала. Существуют различные виды сайдинга, и их монтаж также имеет свои отличия. как обшить сайдингом дом www.sotdel.ru/obshivka-doma-sajdingom.html www.facebook.com/110372909302943/photos/a.228565947483638...

In the United States, wealth is highly concentrated in a relatively few hands. As of 2007, the top 1% of households (the upper class) owned 34.6% of all privately held wealth, and the next 19% (the managerial, professional, and small business stratum) had 50.5%, which means that just 20% of the people owned a remarkable 85%, leaving only 15% of the wealth for the bottom 80% (wage and salary workers).
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wealth_in_the_United_States
www.999ideas.com/redistribution-of-wealth.html
There's nothing wrong with being wealthy, but how you get there matters. In a fair and free society getting rich does not cause anyone's impoverishment. Historically, we have all benefited from an economy that rewards those who create the most value. . . . The danger of great wealth is that it buys great power, which can be used to take advantage of the poor and middle class. This is what has been happening more and more in recent years. Laws and regulations have been lobbied for and passed which allow the redistribution of wealth from the poor and middle class to the wealthy.

Une démarche de développement durable
Le centre de production horticole, c'est 13 300 m2 de serres qui figurent sans doute parmi les plus modernes et performantes du pays. "Nous n'avons pas voulu nous contenter de remplacer les vieilles serres de Créteil et Limeil-Brévannes, explique Thierry
Deman, responsable de la production florale et arboricole de Plaine centrale. Notre objectif, c'était de créer un site de production qui garantisse un haut rendement, respecte l'environnement et offre au personnel de bonnes conditions de travail. C'est
pourquoi nous nous sommes inscrits dans une démarche HQE (haute qualité environnementale) de développement durable."
C'est ainsi que les constructions ont été intégrées dans leur environnement, que les serres ont été travaillées et disposées pour limiter au maximum l'impact visuel, que les arbres et les haies existants ont été préservés et que les matériaux choisis (bois,
verre, aluminium, acier inoxydable, linoléum, peintures sans solvant) l'ont été pour leurs faibles nuisances environnementales.
À l'intérieur, la plupart des réseaux ont été enterrés et l'éclairage a été réalisé avec des luminaires basse luminancepour améliorer le confort visuel.
Les équipements bruyants ont été mis dans des lieux isolés pour limiter les nuisances sonores, des siphons ont été placés régulièrement sur les dallages pour faciliter le nettoyage du sol, des ouvrants de pignons et de toiture ont été installés pour permettre
le brassage et le renouvellement de l'air.
Des économies d'eau et d'énergie
Mais le respect de la démarche HQE est surtout sensible dans la gestion économique et écologique de l'énergie et de l'eau.
De nombreuses dispositions ont ainsi été prises pour réaliser des économies de chauffage et améliorer le confort de travail du personnel (énergie humaine) : orientation des serres dans l'axe nord-sud pour un ensoleillement maximum, utilisation d'un verre spécial pour une filtration positive des rayons solaires (rétention
des UVA), régulation informatisée du climat et installation d'une chaudière à grand volume d'eau, mise en place de chaînes de production pour diminuer les déplacements, les efforts et contraintes physiques, concentration des aires de culture
autour de la galerie de travail.
Par ailleurs, tout a été conçu pour limiter les prélèvements d'eau et supprimer les rejets. C'est ainsi qu'un bassin de récupération des eaux de toiture a été réalisé et qu'un système d'arrosage, fondé sur le drainage et le recyclage des eaux de sol
a été mis en œuvre (voir encadré).
Ce sont bien, ainsi, des serres du XXIe siècle qui ont ouvert à Mandres-les-Roses. Un univers de fleurs et de plantes vertes certes, mais aussi de tapis de convoyage, de ponts roulants et de chariots mécaniques, car l'automatisation est omniprésente et a
permis à chaque étape de la production (rempotage, fertilisation ...) et de la manutention (transport du terreau, des plaques de culture ...) d'éliminer la plupart des tâches pénibles. Quant aux ordinateurs dont la présence peut également surprendre, ils
gèrent, ni plus ni moins que le chauffage, l'arrosage et le climat.
Un système d'arrosage innovant
En matière de développement durable et de protection de l'environnement, les serres communautaires se situent à la pointe de la technologie. Alors que les dégâts causés aux nappes phréatiques par les engrais et traitements divers sont depuis longtemps avérés et que l'eau devient un bien de plus en plus précieux, les serres communautaires ne polluent pas et permettent de réaliser des économies. Elles le doivent à l'installation d'un système d'arrosage qui met en œuvre le recyclage des eaux d'arrosage et la récupération des eaux de pluie (ou eaux de toiture). Comme le montre le schéma ci-dessous, le recyclage des eaux d'arrosage s'effectue par filtration à travers une toile perméable et une couche de roche volcanique au pouvoir tampon, disposées sous les plantes. Les eaux de pluie, elles, sont récupérées dans un bassin de 500 m3. Après mélange et fertilisation dans une station de pompage, eaux de pluie et d'arrosage sont dirigées sur les rampes d'arrosage.
Here is the amazing Bayrams Treehouses i stayed in Olympos. I would highly recommend Bayrams Treehouses for all backpackers, like me :). You can even book your hostel online from Turkey Hostels. Cheers !

Our Lady & The English Martyrs, Cambridge
stepneyrobarts.blogspot.co.uk/2013/02/our-lady-english-ma...
Yesterday I revisited St Peter for internals and finished of Cambridge, visiting seven Victorian built churches only one of which, Our Lady & The English Martyrs, is worth writing up.
At first sight I wrote OLEM off as a Victorian Gothic monstrosity but as I wandered around the exterior I was struck by the quality of the building and the interior stunned me with lots of rather good glass and impressive architecture (oh and apart from three revisits, Babraham, Guilden Morden and Stow cum Quy, that finished the north west quadrant).
The Church of Our Lady and the English Martyrs, or OLEM, is situated in the heart of the city of Cambridge. An imposing example of the 19th Century Gothic Revival, it was built to the designs of Dunn & Hansom of Newcastle between 1885 and 1890, and founded solely by Mrs Yolande Marie Louise Lyne-Stephens, a former ballet dancer at the Paris Opera and Drury Lane, London, and widow of a wealthy banker. She promised to build the church on the feast of Our Lady of the Assumption, and Monsignor Christopher Scott - the first Rector - also wished to commemorate the Catholic Martyrs who died between 1535 and 1681, over thirty of whom had been in residence at the University.
Designed by architects Dunn and Hansom of Newcastle and built by the Cambridge firm of Rattee and Kett, OLEM is constructed in Casterton, Ancaster and Combe Down Stone. The church is a traditional cruciform structure in the early-decorated style with a large tower at the crossing, a polygonal apse and a west bell tower with a 65-metre spire, visible for miles around Cambridge. Quite often, it is quoted by visitors and local residents as a location point. The approximate internal dimensions of the church are: length 48 meters [156 ft] width across the aisles 16 meters [51 ft] width at the transepts 22 meters [71 ft], the height of the nave 15 meters [71ft].
Inside and over the west door stands the figure of Our Lady of the Assumption crowned with lilies and standing on the crescent moon with the vanquished serpent beneath. The west window shows the English Martyrs arranged in two principal groups, the clergy on the south side with St John Fisher in their midst and the laity on the north grouped round St Thomas More.
Beside the South aisle is an ancient statue of Our Lady with the Child Jesus. This statue is understood to be a gift in 1850 from Emmanuel College, which was built on the site of a Dominican Priory dating back to 1274. The Church of the Black Friars of Cambridge contained a statue of Our Blessed Lady to which much pilgrimage was had. Although unconfirmed this could be that statue.
The Chapel of the Holy Souls with the book of Remembrance is located at the west end of the south aisle. The sculpture above the altar depicts the solace and relief of the Holy Souls in Purgatory through the intercession of Our Lady and the angel who comforted Our Lord in Gethsemane. The Chapel is now appropriately used at the two great Christian celebrations: at Easter for the Empty Tomb indicating the Risen Lord, and at Christmas for the Crib.
The aisle windows were almost completely destroyed when the church was struck by a bomb on 1941, but were subsequently replaced in their original form. They epitomise the various sufferings of the English Martyrs, their being brought before the Council, racked, hung, drawn and quartered in the sight and sympathy of the faithful. The windows of the north aisle portray Carthusians, St Thomas Moore, B. Margaret Pole and others, while the south aisle is made a “Fisher Aisle”, devoted to scenes from the life of St John, Cardinal Bishop of Rochester, who in so many important ways is identified with Cambridge.
The best general impression of the interior is obtained from the gateway in the iron screen dividing the nave from the ante-chapel. The heads of the four great preachers of Our Lady’s Graces are carved in the four corners of the nave. The windows along the nave represent saints connected with the Church in Britain, arranged approximately in chronological order from east to west with a few additional figures in the eastern windows.
The Rood which is between the nave and the sanctuary is of the type known as “Majestas”; the figure of Our Lord, with glorified wounds, robed in alb, stole and pallium [as High Priest] and crowned [as King “reigning from the Tree”]. This was the earliest type of crucifix; the realistic figure, now almost universal, did not come into general use until the beginning of the thirteenth century. The cross, inspired by that at Nuremberg, is about 6 metres high, carved in oak; the figures of Christ and of Our Lady and of Saint John are of Kauri pine. They were carved locally by Mr. B. Maclean Leach and completed and blessed in 1914.
Beyond the present, modern altar is the High Altar with the relics of Saints Felix and Constantia, martyrs of the early Church. The tabernacle and ornaments of the altar are of exquisite French workmanship from Lyons. The baldacchino which covers the High Altar is similar to that over the tomb of Robert the Wise (1275-1343) at Santa Chiara, Naples. It is one of the earliest forms of adornment of a Christian altar. At the top is the figure of Our Lord in glory supported on each side by angels in act of adoration.
The design and the re-ordering of the sanctuary was done by Mr. Gerard Goalen of Harlow after the Second Vatican Council. On 7th April, 1973, Bishop Charles Grant consecrated the present central. The original High Altar has subsequently been used mainly for reservation of the Blessed Sacrament.

Persecución Religiosa: Interrogatorio en clase
Era un día soleado, y en el aula resonó la voz alta de la docente china. Boqian y sus compañeros de clase escuchaban a la maestra con atención. De repente, se abrió la puerta y entró el subdirector de la sección educativa. Le susurró algo al maestro chino, luego el profesor chino dejó de dar una conferencia y se hizo a un lado. El subdirector tomó el puntero, golpeó dos veces en la pizarra y luego preguntó con voz severa: "¡Todos! ¿Hay algún creyente de Dios en tu familia"? Los estudiantes negaron con la cabeza y respondieron: "No". Boqian, que se estaba sentado en el medio de la tercera fila, comentó ligeramente, que sus padres eran creyentes en Dios. Recordó que su madre una vez le había dicho, "China es un estado autoritario sin libertad religiosa. El PCCh no permite que las personas adoren al Dios verdadero, sino que se resisten fanáticamente a Él y a Su obra. Los creyentes en China corren el peligro de ser arrestados en cualquier momento o lugar y sufrir la cruel persecución del PCCh". Boqian sabía que nunca les diría a los maestros que él y sus padres creían en Dios, de lo contrario las consecuencias serían inimaginables.
El subdirector parecía insatisfecho con las respuestas de los estudiantes, y luego sacó del bolsillo un reproductor MP5 negro, lo levantó y les dijo a los estudiantes: "¿Quién ha visto alguna vez a un jugador así? ¿De quién es la familia que tiene ese jugador"? Muchos estudiantes se miraron el uno al otro y no sabían qué tenía que ver el reproductor del MP5 con la investigación de si había algún creyente en sus familias. Pero Boqian sabía claramente en su corazón que los hermanos y hermanas de la iglesia, incluyendo a sus padres, solían usar este tipo de reproductor para leer la palabra de Dios, escuchar himnos y ver películas del evangelio, pero no se atrevió a decir una palabra. Temió que le daría algo a la maestra. Luego, el subdirector miró a cada estudiante y dijo con dureza: "Quien sea que hable es un buen estudiante y será citado. Si descubro que alguien sabía algo y no lo dice, será disciplinado y nunca podrá graduarse sin problemas". Después de escuchar eso, Boqian se sintió nervioso nuevamente. Una vez más, pensó en las palabras de su madre: "El gobierno del PCCh está lleno de astutos trucos. Instalan cámaras en las calles para monitorear a los creyentes; además, van de puerta en puerta realizando inspecciones para buscar a los creyentes a fin de verificar las tarjetas de residencia, y también utilizan unidades de trabajo y escuelas para investigar si hay algún creyente en la familia de alguien. Una vez que encuentran a un creyente de Dios, lo arrestarán y perseguirán, y sus incrédulos miembros de la familia se verán implicados y perderán sus trabajos, y sus hijos perderán las oportunidades de seguir estudiando. El gobierno del PCCh realiza investigaciones tan fanáticamente solo por el deseo delirante de capturar a todos los cristianos y establecer un país sin Dios en China". Boqian sabía que la razón por la que el líder de la escuela actuó de esa manera ese día fue porque ellos eran dirigidos por el PCCh. Para encontrar a los creyentes de Dios, obligaron a los estudiantes a hablar sobre si había creyentes en sus familias a través de engaños y amenazas. El PCCh fue de hecho demasiado insidioso y malvado. Pensando en eso, Boqian se dio cuenta de que el truco de Satanás se escondía detrás de este acontecimiento. Si él era tímido y temeroso, los maestros verían los agujeros, lo que pondría en peligro a su familia y a los hermanos y hermanas. Decidió que, en cualquier caso, no vendería a sus hermanos y hermanas, y mucho menos traicionaría a Dios, y que oraría a Dios y confiaría en Él para vencer la tentación repentina de Satanás.

Expo in the City est le premier magazine gratuit dédié aux expositions parisiennes ; l’occasion nous a été donnée de poser quelques questions à Fleur Baudon, directrice de la publication et Arnaud Chedal-Anglay, fondateur et rédacteur en chef du magazine.
Bonjour à tous les deux, racontez-nous l’idée de départ, sa concrétisation et parlez-nous de l’équipe !
L’idée de départ : rendre un peu « sexy » les expos, dépoussiérer tout ça. Créer un magazine urbain, sympathique, résolument moderne, qui donne envie de sortir pour aller voir une expo avec ses amis, son amour, ses parents ou ses enfants.
Un magazine convivial, qui se partage, tout comme ses bons plans.
Un magazine pratique qui tient dans la poche.
Un magazine gratuit, pour une vraie promotion de l’Art à Paris, sans clivage.
Pour la première fois, un classement des expos en ligne avec les envies et les attentes des parisiens. Pas d’expo ‘’beaux arts’’ ou ‘’ sciences et techniques’’, mais les expos à faire le soir après le boulot, les expos gratuites, celles à faire en amoureux ou en famille. Les expos pour frimer le lundi matin au bureau, ou pour occuper les beaux parents qui débarquent !
Expo in the City souhaite faire de chaque sortie expo un vrai bon moment, sympa et inoubliable. Pour cela, nous avons créé les premiers « duos expos », de bonnes petites adresses parisiennes avec les meilleures expositions. Cela permet de prolonger le plaisir de la sortie avec un petit brunch, un resto, un apéro, ou un jardin caché, une boutique insolite…
La concrétisation de cette idée a mis 2 ans, 2 ans pendant lesquels nous avons fait et refait des maquettes de magazines, en interrogeant des parisiens pour vraiment comprendre leurs attentes et leurs envies, et leur offrir le meilleur des expos, dans une version colorée et joyeuse.
L’équipe : Fleur et Arnaud, aidés par nos proches, amis, et familles. Nous avons créé une association qui a pour but de promouvoir l’Art à Paris, de manière accessible et sympa. Nous sommes des indépendants, loin des grands groupes de presse. Des idéalistes ? Des ‘’fous’’ peut-être ? Des passionnés évidemment !
En octobre de cette année, vous avez rassemblé des fonds sur le site de financement participatif KissKissBankBank, comment cela s’est-il passé ?
La démarche nous a permis de récolter 5 000 euros ! Cela nous a permis de nous lancer, en finançant l’impression du premier numéro, et une partie du site web. C’était fou de voir comme ce projet a pu mobiliser des soutiens, nous appuyant dans cette démarche audacieuse.
Présentez-nous la ligne éditoriale de Expo in the City, le positionnement du mag.
Expo in the City est un magazine bimestriel, format poche extrêmement qualitatif, 100 pages en couleur, distribué gratuitement à 20 000 exemplaires dans le cœur de Paris, aux métros, entrées des cinémas, théâtres et musées.
Le ‘’petit livre’’ des expos toujours sur soi !
Nous souhaitons toucher tous les gens passionnés par l’art, mais pas seulement ! L’idée est vraiment d’ouvrir l’art à tous, en faisant re-découvrir les expos de Paris et la richesse culturelle de la capitale, par un classement inédit des expos, pour que chacun puisse trouver l’expo qui lui ressemble, ou l’expo qui convient à chaque occasion.
Nous avons voulu créer le 1er magazine qui ne se jette pas, avec sa sélection d’expos, ses bons plans, ses actus, son format poche ultra-pratique. Nous avons créé un magazine pour chacun et pour tous.
Où peut-on trouver le magazine aujourd’hui ? Peut-on s’abonner ?
Tous les 2 mois, Expo in the City est distribué pendant 2 semaines dans le centre de Paris et en région Parisienne. Aux stations de Métro, dans les files de musées, de cinés, de théâtre, en 20 000 exemplaires. Expo in the City est aussi accessible sur le web www.expointhecity.com/, avec des actus inédites et complémentaires, et des avis d’internautes. Pour ceux qui souhaitent recevoir leur magazine chez eux, nous proposons une formule d’abonnement à 24 euros par an (magazine gratuit + frais de gestion et d’envois), offrant en plus un pass pour Pompidou.
Vous êtes également présent sur le web, pourquoi éditer un magazine papier et un site web ?
Pour nous les deux supports sont complémentaires. L’un se consulte en se feuilletant, dans le métro, dans son salon, dans un café, il se lit. Nous étions très attachés au support papier car nous aimons personnellement lire, et garder nos livres et guides pour les reconsulter à l’envi.
Le site internet est un support complémentaire qui nous permet de suivre l’actualité à la semaine, voire chaque jour. Nous donnons la parole à nos internautes pour nous donner leur avis sur les expos et aider les autres internautes à faire leur choix d’expos. Internet est très vivant, évolue chaque jour. Le magazine est une valeur sûre qui se garde sur soi.
Des projets de développement ? L’envie de décliner le magazine dans une autre ville ?
Nous avons plein d’idées de développement !
Notre premier souhait est de faire grandir Expo in the City, en restant libres et indépendants, ce qui est assez difficile car nos moyens ne sont pas ceux des grands groupes. Nous souhaitons étendre les services que nous proposons à nos lecteurs, toujours dans un esprit de convivialité, par exemple en créant une carte Club permettant d’inviter gratuitement une personne avec soi dans les musées, en organisant des soirées vernissages, des discussions sur des sujets d’expos... Tout en restant sur Paris, peut-être étendrons nous le magazine à la rentrée, a une version sur l’Art en général (musique, théâtre, cinéma, écriture…).
Merci et longue vie à Expo in the City !
My handy HTML cheat sheet. Sad, I know, that I have to write it down so I remember.
It sure isn't easy being a n00b.
Marni Turkel is one of the world's most skilled growers of orchid species and a renowned ceramist. Now after decades of collecting rare and fascinating species orchids, she has moved from her ceramics production to propagation of her vast collection of very rare orchid species. Her lab is brimming over with flasks of vigorous seedlings of rare and choice species not available anywhere else. Many of the species she is propagating for sale have never been offered in the US before. Unlike most growers who set seed pods via self-pollination, Marni goes to great lengths to procure pollen from other clones; these outcrosses ensure greater genetic diversity and stronger progeny.
Never satisfied with mediocrity, Marni is an innovative and resourceful person who is continually researching and experimenting so that her flasks come out beautifully. A great number of the species she has in her lab have never been propagated artificially before and she has had to pioneer new techniques to cater to the varied needs of different orchid species' seeds in flask.
I'm an enthusiastic customer, having bought a number of her excellent flasks. I have had very good results with the seedlings I have de-flasked, they are quite strong growers with very few losses.
Elvis' First Limo! This car has a TON of history behind it. The first car purchased by Elvis once he exploded on the scene in the early 1950's, This Cadillac speaks for itself.
Taken from a website I found on the topic:
This Cadillac was on display at the Elvis Presley Museum during the 1990s. Kruse International had it listed as lot No. 3329 for sale at Auburn Fall '99 auction, September 1-7. This vehicle however was not actually at the auction. It was then permanently exhibited at an Elvis Museum in Las Vegas called Elvis-A-Rama.
RM Auctions sold this vehicle at Monterey on August 18 2007. Expecting to fetch $100,000 - $150,000 it realised $275,000! RM Auctions stated:
"Elvis Presley himself purchased chassis no. 557547481. The Cadillac was originally painted in a light blue, but Elvis quickly had it repainted a more appropriate black. Elvis used it to tour throughout the south with his original band members, Scotty Moore, Bill Black and D.J. Fontana. Reportedly, Elvis and his band would strap their instruments to the roof of the car and drive through the night to make it to the next town where they were going to perform.
There is absolutely no question as to the documentation of the sale of the Cadillac Fleetwood to the illustrious Elvis Presley. There are several photos of Elvis with the vehicle, one outside his home in the summer of 1956, as well as another outside the CBS Studios in Los Angeles moments before his first appearance on the Ed Sullivan Show. Also included are the original conditional sales contract and the original 1955 Cadillac Owner’s Manual stating, “Elvis Presley 1034 Audobon Ave. Memphis, Tenn.;” which, it should be noted, is handwritten on the inside back cover".
www.decorobra.com/techos-verdes-decorativos-y-ecologicos....
Los techos verdes son techos con vegetación, plantas que viven en ellos. Podemos encontrar dos tipos de techos verdes, los intensivos y los extensivos. Para los primeros se necesita una capa de tierra de aproximadamente 30 centímetros y es necesario que la construcción tenga elementos estructurales muy fuertes para soportar el peso de estos techos ecológicos. Los techos verdes intensivos pueden tener una gran variedad de plantas y son muy atractivos pero generalmente requieren de mucho mantenimiento. Debido a esto, son menos comunes que los techos verdes extensivos.
Para los techos verdes extensivos sólo se necesita 7un capa de entre 5 y 10 centímetros de espesor pero es más limitada la variedad de plantas que pueden alojar. En los últimos 50 años han sido muy usados y desarrollados en Europa, y en los últimos tiempos han empezado a implementarse en Latinoamérica.
Los techos verdes tienen muchas ventajas. Principalmente protegen los techos de los rayos solares, los cuales suelen causar grietas en los materiales. Además mantienen el techo más fresco lo cual reduce el efecto de calentamiento, contribuyendo a que las ciudades no estén cada año más calientes. Como consecuencia reduce el consumo energético, ya que no será tan necesaria la utilización de electrodomésticos tales como aires acondicionados, etc.
Los techos verdes extensivos tienen una capa de semillas generalmente de pasto. Poseen plantas de poca raíz y no muy tolerantes al exceso de agua. Al presenta una capa de tierra muy fina, permite la propagación de plantas silvestres, ya que no pueden vivir en ese medio, en cierta forma, árido. Debajo de la capa de tierra se encuentran varias capas más. La primera es una capa de drenaje, la cual permite que el agua se mueva libremente fuera del techo, y por último, una capa de barrera que impide el paso del agua hacia el techo.
Desde el punto de vista de la estética, los techos verdes poseen un aspecto por demás agradable y natural, que brinda a las construcciones un aire natural y fresco. Si usted está pensando en poner un techo en su casa, le recomendamos hacer las averiguaciones previas, para saber si la estructura de su vivienda lo resistirá.

www.zoo.com.sg/exhibits-zones/pygmy-hippo.html#ad-image-0
Pygmy hippos spend a large part of their lives submerged in water, either in a swamp or a river. Hence, their exhibit is designed more like a giant aquarium with two viewing galleries. From the seated comfort of the spacious lower level gallery, you can see these hippos tiptoeing on the riverbed like ballerinas en pointe! Although the hippos spend a lot of time in the water, they can’t swim and their bodies are too dense to stay afloat. Look closely and you’ll notice they close their ears and nostrils when submerged in the water. Unlike the common hippo, whose eyes are at the top of their heads, the eyes of the pygmy hippo are on the sides of their heads. Their toes are also not webbed like their larger cousins.
On hot days, you might want to lean in for a closer look at the skin of the animal. With no sweat glands, these miniature hippos survive the heat by staying cool in the water in the day and their skin secretes mucus that acts as a natural sun block.
Pygmy hippos are herbivores with exceptionally large jaws. They eat grass, roots, fruits and shoots in the wild. See how wide hungry hippos can stretch their mouths during their token feeding session at 2.30pm daily.

From Edmunds (http://www.edmunds.com/ford/taurus/2008/review.html) -
What Edmunds.com says
The reborn 2008 Ford Taurus hits the dance floor with some fresh moves courtesy of a 263-horsepower V6. The engine upgrade, along with the Five Hundred's pre-existing comfortable cabin, cavernous trunk and top-notch safety scores, make the new Taurus a worthy candidate for a full-size sedan.
Pros
Extra-large backseat and trunk, outstanding crash test scores, comfortable ride, good visibility, available all-wheel drive.
Cons
High front seats create an odd driving position that might be uncomfortable for taller drivers, transmission occasionally slow to downshift.
What's New for 2008
Ford resurrects the Taurus nameplate for 2008 by affixing it to a much-improved Five Hundred. A more powerful engine, a nicer and quieter cabin, a retuned suspension and a corporate three-bar grille are the major highlights.
Introduction
Name recognition and awareness are no doubt important for automotive manufacturers. For example, look no further than the 2008 Ford Taurus. Ford has pulled the Taurus nameplate out of its one-year dirt nap in hopes of getting back into the thick of the large family sedan game. But is the public's awareness of the Taurus name a good thing or bad? Though a hero car back in the 1980s and early '90s, more recent iterations of the Taurus were dated and anonymous, a favorite of image-dulling rental car agencies and a not-so-favorite of middle management types who received them as company cars.
The Taurus revival is combined with the death of the Ford Five Hundred, a large sedan introduced a few years ago that never sold like the company had hoped. Although it offered a large cabin and an impressive ride and handling balance, the Five Hundred was let down by weak engine performance and a lack of refinement.
Thankfully, the 2008 Ford Taurus gains a number of improvements as part of its return. Under that familiar Five Hundred sheet metal are much improved running gear and additional features. In fact, Ford says there are more than 500 changes. A 263-hp V6 replaces the lame 203-hp V6, and a more responsive six-speed automatic replaces the sluggish continuously variable transmission (CVT) across all trim levels.
Other improvements for this large family sedan include the adoption of stability control, a "Ford Sync" system (that allows hands-free use of mobile phones and digital music players), improved cabin materials and more sound insulation for a quieter ride.
With its major performance infusion, addition of key safety and luxury features, and available all-wheel drive, the Ford Taurus is the best it's been in a long time. Given the Taurus' size (along with the fact that the Ford Fusion now battles stalwarts like the Honda Accord and Toyota Camry), you'll probably want to cross-shop it against full-size sedans like the Chrysler 300, Hyundai Azera or Toyota Avalon. Though still slightly deficient in terms of style (compared to the 300) or all-around polish, the Taurus is certainly worth consideration.
Η αληθινή ιστορία πίσω από το έργο στην Εποχή της Λύτρωσης
Ολόκληρο το σχέδιο της διαχείρισής Μου, ένα σχέδιο που εκτείνεται σε διάστημα έξι χιλιάδων ετών, αποτελείται από τρία στάδια ή τρεις εποχές: στην αρχή η Εποχή του Νόμου, η Εποχή της Χάριτος (που είναι επίσης και η Εποχή της Λύτρωσης) και τις έσχατες ημέρες η Εποχή της Βασιλείας. Το έργο Μου στις τρεις αυτές εποχές διαφέρει σε περιεχόμενο σύμφωνα με την φύση της κάθε εποχής, αλλά σε κάθε στάδιο είναι σε συμφωνία με τις ανάγκες του ανθρώπου – ή, για να είμαστε πιο ακριβείς, γίνεται σύμφωνα με τα κόλπα που ο Σατανάς εφαρμόζει στον πόλεμο που διεξάγω εναντίον του. Ο σκοπός του έργου Μου είναι να νικήσω τον Σατανά, να εκδηλώσω την σοφία Μου και την παντοδυναμία Μου, να αποκαλύψω όλα τα κόλπα του Σατανά και μ’ αυτόν τον τρόπο να σώσω ολόκληρο το ανθρώπινο γένος το οποίο ζει υπό τη σφαίρα επιρροής του. Είναι για να δείξω τη σοφία Μου και την παντοδυναμία Μου ενώ ταυτόχρονα ν’ αποκαλύψω την αβάσταχτη αποκρουστικότητα του Σατανά. Ακόμη περισσότερο είναι για να διδάξω στα πλάσματά Μου να διακρίνουν μεταξύ του καλού και του κακού, να γνωρίζουν ότι εγώ είμαι ο Κυβερνήτης όλων των πραγμάτων, να δουν ξεκάθαρα ότι ο Σατανάς είναι εχθρός της ανθρωπότητας, ο πιο χαμηλός των χαμηλών, ο σατανικός, και να διακρίνουν με απόλυτη βεβαιότητα τη διαφορά μεταξύ καλού και κακού, αλήθειας και ψεύδους, αγιότητας και βρομιάς και τι είναι σημαντικό και τι ποταπό. Μ’ αυτόν τον τρόπο, η αδαής ανθρωπότητα θα μπορεί να γίνει μάρτυρας για Μένα, ότι δεν είμαι εγώ που διαφθείρω την ανθρωπότητα και μόνο εγώ – ο Κύριος της δημιουργίας – μπορώ να σώσω την ανθρωπότητα, μπορώ να δώσω στον άνθρωπο πράγματα για την απόλαυσή του. Και θα γνωρίσει ότι Εγώ είμαι ο Κυβερνήτης όλων των πραγμάτων και ο Σατανάς είναι απλώς ένα από τα όντα που δημιούργησα και αργότερα στράφηκε εναντίον Μου. Το σχέδιο διαχείρισης Μου των έξι χιλιάδων ετών χωρίζεται σε τρία στάδια για να επιτευχθεί το παρακάτω αποτέλεσμα: να μπορέσουν οι δημιουργίες Μου να γίνουν μάρτυρές Μου, να κατανοήσουν το θέλημά Μου και να γνωρίζουν ότι εγώ είμαι η αλήθεια. Έτσι, κατά τη διάρκεια της αρχικής φάσης του έργου στο σχέδιο διαχείρισής Μου των έξι χιλιάδων ετών, έκανα το έργο του νόμου που ήταν το έργο στο οποίο ο Ιεχωβά οδήγησε τους ανθρώπους Του. Το δεύτερο στάδιο ξεκίνησε το έργο της Εποχής της Χάριτος στα χωριά της Ιουδαίας. Ο Ιησούς αντιπροσωπεύει όλο το έργο της Εποχής της Χάριτος. Ενσαρκώθηκε και σταυρώθηκε στον σταυρό κι επίσης εγκαινίασε την Εποχή της Χάριτος. Σταυρώθηκε για να ολοκληρώσει το έργο της λύτρωσης, να τελειώσει την Εποχή του Νόμου και να ξεκινήσει την Εποχή της Χάριτος κι έτσι ονομάστηκε ο «Υπέρτατος Αρχηγός», η «Προσφορά για την αμαρτία», ο «Λυτρωτής». Έτσι, το έργο του Ιησού διέφερε σε περιεχόμενο από το έργο του Ιεχωβά, παρόλο που ήταν τα ίδια στις αρχές τους. Ο Ιεχωβά ξεκίνησε την Εποχή του Νόμου, εδραίωσε τη βάση του οίκου, δηλαδή το σημείο της αρχής του έργου Του στην γη και εξέδωσε τις εντολές. Αυτά ήταν δύο από τα κατορθώματά Του, τα οποία αντιπροσωπεύουν την Εποχή του Νόμου. Το έργο που έκανε ο Ιησούς την Εποχή της Χάριτος δεν ήταν για να εκδώσει εντολές αλλά για να εκπληρώσει τις εντολές και μ’ αυτόν τον τρόπο να οδηγήσει στην Εποχή της Χάριτος και να καταλήξει με την Εποχή του Νόμου που είχε διαρκέσει δύο χιλιάδες χρόνια. Ήταν ο πρωτοπόρος που ήρθε για να ξεκινήσει την Εποχή της Χάριτος, ωστόσο το κύριο μέρος του έργου Του ήταν για τη λύτρωση. Οπότε τα κατορθώματά Του ήταν επίσης διπλά: ξεκίνησε μια νέα εποχή και ολοκλήρωσε το έργο της λύτρωσης μέσω της σταύρωσής Του. Στη συνέχεια αναχώρησε. Στο σημείο αυτό, η Εποχή του Νόμου έφτασε στο τέλος της και η ανθρωπότητα εισήλθε στην Εποχή της Χάριτος.

Our Lady & The English Martyrs, Cambridge
stepneyrobarts.blogspot.co.uk/2013/02/our-lady-english-ma...
Yesterday I revisited St Peter for internals and finished of Cambridge, visiting seven Victorian built churches only one of which, Our Lady & The English Martyrs, is worth writing up.
At first sight I wrote OLEM off as a Victorian Gothic monstrosity but as I wandered around the exterior I was struck by the quality of the building and the interior stunned me with lots of rather good glass and impressive architecture (oh and apart from three revisits, Babraham, Guilden Morden and Stow cum Quy, that finished the north west quadrant).
The Church of Our Lady and the English Martyrs, or OLEM, is situated in the heart of the city of Cambridge. An imposing example of the 19th Century Gothic Revival, it was built to the designs of Dunn & Hansom of Newcastle between 1885 and 1890, and founded solely by Mrs Yolande Marie Louise Lyne-Stephens, a former ballet dancer at the Paris Opera and Drury Lane, London, and widow of a wealthy banker. She promised to build the church on the feast of Our Lady of the Assumption, and Monsignor Christopher Scott - the first Rector - also wished to commemorate the Catholic Martyrs who died between 1535 and 1681, over thirty of whom had been in residence at the University.
Designed by architects Dunn and Hansom of Newcastle and built by the Cambridge firm of Rattee and Kett, OLEM is constructed in Casterton, Ancaster and Combe Down Stone. The church is a traditional cruciform structure in the early-decorated style with a large tower at the crossing, a polygonal apse and a west bell tower with a 65-metre spire, visible for miles around Cambridge. Quite often, it is quoted by visitors and local residents as a location point. The approximate internal dimensions of the church are: length 48 meters [156 ft] width across the aisles 16 meters [51 ft] width at the transepts 22 meters [71 ft], the height of the nave 15 meters [71ft].
Inside and over the west door stands the figure of Our Lady of the Assumption crowned with lilies and standing on the crescent moon with the vanquished serpent beneath. The west window shows the English Martyrs arranged in two principal groups, the clergy on the south side with St John Fisher in their midst and the laity on the north grouped round St Thomas More.
Beside the South aisle is an ancient statue of Our Lady with the Child Jesus. This statue is understood to be a gift in 1850 from Emmanuel College, which was built on the site of a Dominican Priory dating back to 1274. The Church of the Black Friars of Cambridge contained a statue of Our Blessed Lady to which much pilgrimage was had. Although unconfirmed this could be that statue.
The Chapel of the Holy Souls with the book of Remembrance is located at the west end of the south aisle. The sculpture above the altar depicts the solace and relief of the Holy Souls in Purgatory through the intercession of Our Lady and the angel who comforted Our Lord in Gethsemane. The Chapel is now appropriately used at the two great Christian celebrations: at Easter for the Empty Tomb indicating the Risen Lord, and at Christmas for the Crib.
The aisle windows were almost completely destroyed when the church was struck by a bomb on 1941, but were subsequently replaced in their original form. They epitomise the various sufferings of the English Martyrs, their being brought before the Council, racked, hung, drawn and quartered in the sight and sympathy of the faithful. The windows of the north aisle portray Carthusians, St Thomas Moore, B. Margaret Pole and others, while the south aisle is made a “Fisher Aisle”, devoted to scenes from the life of St John, Cardinal Bishop of Rochester, who in so many important ways is identified with Cambridge.
The best general impression of the interior is obtained from the gateway in the iron screen dividing the nave from the ante-chapel. The heads of the four great preachers of Our Lady’s Graces are carved in the four corners of the nave. The windows along the nave represent saints connected with the Church in Britain, arranged approximately in chronological order from east to west with a few additional figures in the eastern windows.
The Rood which is between the nave and the sanctuary is of the type known as “Majestas”; the figure of Our Lord, with glorified wounds, robed in alb, stole and pallium [as High Priest] and crowned [as King “reigning from the Tree”]. This was the earliest type of crucifix; the realistic figure, now almost universal, did not come into general use until the beginning of the thirteenth century. The cross, inspired by that at Nuremberg, is about 6 metres high, carved in oak; the figures of Christ and of Our Lady and of Saint John are of Kauri pine. They were carved locally by Mr. B. Maclean Leach and completed and blessed in 1914.
Beyond the present, modern altar is the High Altar with the relics of Saints Felix and Constantia, martyrs of the early Church. The tabernacle and ornaments of the altar are of exquisite French workmanship from Lyons. The baldacchino which covers the High Altar is similar to that over the tomb of Robert the Wise (1275-1343) at Santa Chiara, Naples. It is one of the earliest forms of adornment of a Christian altar. At the top is the figure of Our Lord in glory supported on each side by angels in act of adoration.
The design and the re-ordering of the sanctuary was done by Mr. Gerard Goalen of Harlow after the Second Vatican Council. On 7th April, 1973, Bishop Charles Grant consecrated the present central. The original High Altar has subsequently been used mainly for reservation of the Blessed Sacrament.

Algunas veces se resta importancia a decorar un lugar regularmente pequeño y en el que sólo vamos de paso: “El cuarto de baño”. Sin embargo nos sorprenderá la maravillosa y sofisticada variedad de accesorios que existen para decorar este espacio. El baño ha pasado de ser una habitación meramente utilitaria, a ser un lugar de relax. Diseñar un cuarto de baño debe ser simple y funcional.
No debe detenerse exclusivamente en la estética de la sala sino también en la practicidad, para poder así crear un espacio de distensión y comodidad.
El diseño de un nuevo cuarto de baño en su casa es un reto, y será enormemente gratificante si lo hace bien. Los errores más básicos de diseño se producen por no calcular el espacio con el que se cuenta para instalar los elementos deseados. Por ejemplo, si su sala de baño es demasiado pequeña para instalar una bañadera, puede optar por una cabina de ducha, que es una opción igualmente estética y confortable. Luego tiene que descubrir la combinación de colores más adecuada a sus gustos y tener en cuenta el estilo del resto de los espacios de su vivienda. No será agradable que el diseño de su cuarto de baño sea incongruente con el concepto de diseño de interiores que haya empleado en el resto de las habitaciones.
Otro aspecto de gran importancia será la correcta iluminación de su sala de baño y encontrará una gran variedad formas de hacerlo. Una de ellas es con un ventilador, que además de refrescar el lugar y alejar los malos olores del mismo, dependiendo del modelo de ventilador, también sirven para la iluminación del cuarto de baño. Otra manera es utilizar las lámparas que se colocan encima del lavamanos, una manera de tener una instalación de luz permanente. Hay una gran diversidad de lámparas de formas, tamaños y colores diferentes. También puede recurrir al uso de lámparas de mesa, siempre y cuando no olvide tener en cuenta contar con un lugar apropiado para su ubicación. Además se pueden colocar lámparas de piso, las cuales pueden colocarse en uno de los rincones del cuarto de baño, así no estarán cerca de ninguno de los suministros de agua. Estas lámparas le dan un estilo más sofisticado al baño, además de dar la impresión de maximizar el espacio.[gallery link="file"]

Une démarche de développement durable
Le centre de production horticole, c'est 13 300 m2 de serres qui figurent sans doute parmi les plus modernes et performantes du pays. "Nous n'avons pas voulu nous contenter de remplacer les vieilles serres de Créteil et Limeil-Brévannes, explique Thierry
Deman, responsable de la production florale et arboricole de Plaine centrale. Notre objectif, c'était de créer un site de production qui garantisse un haut rendement, respecte l'environnement et offre au personnel de bonnes conditions de travail. C'est
pourquoi nous nous sommes inscrits dans une démarche HQE (haute qualité environnementale) de développement durable."
C'est ainsi que les constructions ont été intégrées dans leur environnement, que les serres ont été travaillées et disposées pour limiter au maximum l'impact visuel, que les arbres et les haies existants ont été préservés et que les matériaux choisis (bois,
verre, aluminium, acier inoxydable, linoléum, peintures sans solvant) l'ont été pour leurs faibles nuisances environnementales.
À l'intérieur, la plupart des réseaux ont été enterrés et l'éclairage a été réalisé avec des luminaires basse luminancepour améliorer le confort visuel.
Les équipements bruyants ont été mis dans des lieux isolés pour limiter les nuisances sonores, des siphons ont été placés régulièrement sur les dallages pour faciliter le nettoyage du sol, des ouvrants de pignons et de toiture ont été installés pour permettre
le brassage et le renouvellement de l'air.
Des économies d'eau et d'énergie
Mais le respect de la démarche HQE est surtout sensible dans la gestion économique et écologique de l'énergie et de l'eau.
De nombreuses dispositions ont ainsi été prises pour réaliser des économies de chauffage et améliorer le confort de travail du personnel (énergie humaine) : orientation des serres dans l'axe nord-sud pour un ensoleillement maximum, utilisation d'un verre spécial pour une filtration positive des rayons solaires (rétention
des UVA), régulation informatisée du climat et installation d'une chaudière à grand volume d'eau, mise en place de chaînes de production pour diminuer les déplacements, les efforts et contraintes physiques, concentration des aires de culture
autour de la galerie de travail.
Par ailleurs, tout a été conçu pour limiter les prélèvements d'eau et supprimer les rejets. C'est ainsi qu'un bassin de récupération des eaux de toiture a été réalisé et qu'un système d'arrosage, fondé sur le drainage et le recyclage des eaux de sol
a été mis en œuvre (voir encadré).
Ce sont bien, ainsi, des serres du XXIe siècle qui ont ouvert à Mandres-les-Roses. Un univers de fleurs et de plantes vertes certes, mais aussi de tapis de convoyage, de ponts roulants et de chariots mécaniques, car l'automatisation est omniprésente et a
permis à chaque étape de la production (rempotage, fertilisation ...) et de la manutention (transport du terreau, des plaques de culture ...) d'éliminer la plupart des tâches pénibles. Quant aux ordinateurs dont la présence peut également surprendre, ils
gèrent, ni plus ni moins que le chauffage, l'arrosage et le climat.
Un système d'arrosage innovant
En matière de développement durable et de protection de l'environnement, les serres communautaires se situent à la pointe de la technologie. Alors que les dégâts causés aux nappes phréatiques par les engrais et traitements divers sont depuis longtemps avérés et que l'eau devient un bien de plus en plus précieux, les serres communautaires ne polluent pas et permettent de réaliser des économies. Elles le doivent à l'installation d'un système d'arrosage qui met en œuvre le recyclage des eaux d'arrosage et la récupération des eaux de pluie (ou eaux de toiture). Comme le montre le schéma ci-dessous, le recyclage des eaux d'arrosage s'effectue par filtration à travers une toile perméable et une couche de roche volcanique au pouvoir tampon, disposées sous les plantes. Les eaux de pluie, elles, sont récupérées dans un bassin de 500 m3. Après mélange et fertilisation dans une station de pompage, eaux de pluie et d'arrosage sont dirigées sur les rampes d'arrosage.
El Templo de Viracocha ( Cultura incaica - Imperio incaico )
.
www.inkaexpress.com.pe/eng/raqchi.php
.
Raqchi es un sitio arqueológico de los Incas en la región Cusco en Perú también conocido como el Templo de Wiracocha. Un pueblo cercano tiene el mismo nombre. Ambos se encuentran alo lado del Río Vilcanota ( Rio Urubamba ). El sitio ha experimentado un reciente aumento en el turismo en los últimos años, con 83.334 visitantes al sitio en 2006, frente a 8.183 en 2000 y 452 en 1996.
A 117 km ( 2 horas ) desde la ciudad Cusco se encuentra una de las construcciones mas grandes de los Incas. El templo fue destruido en la conquista, pero lo que hoy queda es suficiente para encender la imaginacion y ver cuan grandioso fue 92 metros ( 302 ft ) de largo y 25.5 metros ( 84 ft ) de ancho. El templo es de paredes de adobe y la base de piedras volcanicas ( el Andesita ) en el estilo tipico de los Incas. Esto Templo se compone de un muro de adobe central de la altura entre 18 y 20 metros. Está flanqueada a cada lado por una hilera de once columnas. Antes de su destrucción por los españoles, el templo tenía el mayor techo en el tiempo de Imperio Inca, que tiene su pico en la pared central ( 18 y 20 metros ), a continuación, se extiende sobre las columnas en anchura de 25 metros ( 82 ft ) más allá de cada lado. El templo solo para ser el edificio más grande en el Imperio Inca.
El complejo tambien incluye areas residenciales y graneros, donde se guardaban alimentos. Junto al templo al norte son doce viviendas, que habría albergado a los sacerdotes y los administradores locales. El salón está dividido en lotes separados cuadrado mayor de los cuales es aproximadamente 4x6m. Todos tienen nichos en las paredes que podrían haber sido utilizados para el almacenamiento. Para el lado oriental del templo son unos 100 qolqas (.almacenes rondas.) en líneas paralelas, cada uno mide unos 10 metros ( 33 ft ) de diámetro. Estos almacenes se utiliza para mantener los granos, como el maíz y quinoa. Los depósitos también son únicos ya que a diferencia de otras estructuras en todo el imperio que no son cuadrados acorralado. La razón de esto es desconocido. Un empleo ritual de los productos alimenticios y una economía de campo perfecta se consideran como probable. las hambrunas eran desconocidas antes de la llegada de los españoles en el imperio de los Incas.
Al oeste del templo es un gran campo, ahora se utilizan por los lugareños para la agricultura,
que podría haber sido un parque de atracciones o mantener desbordamiento de fieles desde el mismo templo. En el extremo occidental de este campo es un conjunto de baños como en los sitios importantes a lo largo del imperio.

The Barnacle Goose (Branta leucopsis) belongs to the genus Branta of black geese, which contains species with largely black plumage, distinguishing them from the grey Anser species. Despite its superficial similarity to the Brant/Brent Goose, genetic analysis has shown it is an eastern derivative of the Cackling Goose lineage.
The Barnacle Goose and the similar Brant Goose were previously considered one species, formerly believed to be essentially the same creature as the barnacle. This gave rise to the English name of the barnacle goose and the scientific name of the brant. It is sometimes claimed that the word comes from a Celtic word for "limpet", but the sense-history seems to go in the opposite direction. The barnacle myth can be dated back to at least the 12th century. Gerald of Wales claimed to have seen these birds hanging down from pieces of timber, William Turner accepted the theory, and John Gerard claimed to have seen the birds emerging from their shells. The legend persisted until the end of the 18th century. In County Kerry, until relatively recently, Catholics could eat this bird on a Friday because it counted as fish!
Barnacle geese breed mainly on the Arctic islands of the North Atlantic. There are three main populations, with separate breeding and wintering ranges; from west to east: breeding in eastern Greenland, wintering on the Hebrides of western Scotland and in western Ireland (population about 40,000; breeding on Svalbard, wintering on the Solway Firth on the England/Scotland border (population about 24,000); breeding on Novaya Zemlya, wintering in the Netherlands (population about 130,000).
A new fourth population, derived from the Novaya Zemlya population, has become established since 1975 breeding on the islands and coasts of the Baltic Sea (Estonia, Finland, Denmark, and Sweden), and wintering in the Netherlands. Population about 8,000. (wikipedia)
This pair of Barnacle Goose were photographed on their breeding grounds in the Svalbard archipelago.

The Willows at Willow Grove Day Camp is a camp for 3 and 4 year old children. This unique camp experience offers your child an early opportunity to learn and socialize with children their own age.
During the first week of camp, lots of fun was had as the children and counselors got to know each other. “Sun and Surf” was our first week theme. The children really enjoyed decorating their bucket and shovel memo pads during Arts and Crafts. Along with this activity, the Polar Bears and Penguins enthusiastically participated in Nature, Gymnastics, Dance, Tennis and Soccer. We are looking forward to the next seven weeks of fun-filled activities.
Willow Grove Day Camp provides summer fun for kids who live in Willow Grove, Abington, Blue Bell, Hatboro, Horsham, Huntingdon Valley, Lafayette Hill, Philadelphia, Plymouth Meeting, Southampton and the surrounding areas.

PHOTOGRAPHY CALLING!
09. October 2011 – 15. January 2012
Sprengel Museum HannoverSprengel Museum Hannover
IN ASSOCIATION WITH THE
LOWER SAXONY SAVINGS BANK FOUNDATION
PHOTOGRAPHY CALLING! is an exhibition of the works of 31 photographers on a floor area of over 2,000 square metres. Since HOW YOU LOOK AT IT in 2000, this exhibition is the first and only one to provide an all-embracing overview of artistic photography from the 1960s to the present day. The exhibition has been organized by the Sprengel Museum Hannover in collaboration with the Lower Saxony Savings Bank Foundation. Starting out from the Foundation’s collection of large groups of works by both American and European photographers, the only collection of its kind in Europe, the exhibition explores the history and perspectives of the ‘documentary style’ of photography.
PHOTOGRAPHY CALLING! constitutes yet a further step towards establishing Hanover as an important centre for artistic photography in the north of Germany.
The starting points of the exhibition are the works of Robert Adams, Diane Arbus, Lewis Baltz, Bernd and Hilla Becher, William Eggleston, Lee Friedlander, John Gossage, Nicholas Nixon, Martin Parr and Michael Schmidt. The artist photographers Rineke Dijkstra, Paul Graham, Thomas Struth and the photographers of the generations that followed, such as Jitka Hanzlová, Stephen Gill, Jochen Lempert, Elisabeth Neudörfl, Heidi Specker and Tobias Zielony, visualize the world with a style of photography that adheres strictly to the medium and yet is highly subjective. Max Baumann, Boris Mikhailov, Rita Ostrowskaja and Helga Paris extend the perspective with experiences of their own confrontations with different political systems, while Laura Bielau, Thomas Demand, Hans-Peter Feldmann, Andreas Gursky, Thomas Ruff, Wolfgang Tillmans and Jeff Wall use the documentary style of photography as a means of exemplifying the phenomena of visual perception. Many of the works are being exhibited for the very first time.
Integrated into the exhibition are three successive Project Rooms organized by three guest curators and each taking place for the duration of one month. They thematize three different methods of collecting and three different ways of using photography.
From 9.10. until 30.10.2011 the artist Thierry Geoffroy will investigate the idea behind the title of the exhibition – PHOTOGRAPHY CALLING! – and ask: Who calls whom and what, and for what purpose, and out of what interests? On 1.11.2011 Markus Schaden will be setting up a study room devoted to the photography book as a ‘storage medium’ and collector’s item. From 6.12.2011 until 15.1.2012 Wilhelm Schürmann will be exposing the obsessions that can be the driving force behind a private collection of photographs, graphics, paintings and sculptures.
In the run-up to the exhibition HOW YOU LOOK AT IT at the Sprengel Museum Hannover, which was curated by Thomas Weski and Heinz Liesbrock on the occasion of EXPO 2000, the Lower Saxony Savings Bank Foundation began to purchase comprehensive groups of works by selected American and European photographers. Since then, the collecting activity of the Foundation has been focused on those works of photography that may be understood to be in the tradition of the ‘documentary style’ (Walker Evans, 1903-1975) and have been exercising a strong influence on photography since the end of the 1960s. Thus it has been possible – thanks not least to the recommendations of a high-calibre advisory board – to build up a photographic collection distinguished by its concentration on groups of works. In this regard the collection is unique in Europe.
The Lower Saxony Savings Bank Foundation’s collection and its perspective are now to be the subject of the present exhibition, which is being mounted jointly with the Sprengel Museum Hannover and also in the context of the Museum’s own well-cultivated photography tradition, which began in 1979 and can boast exhibitions of such great exponents of photography as Karl Blossfeldt, El Lissitzky, Judith Joy Ross and Michael Schmidt, to name only a few of many, or the “SPECTRUM” International Prize for Photography of the Foundation of Lower Saxony. ‘Collecting’ manifests itself here as an open system that operates self-reflexively in the aforementioned Project Rooms and is future-oriented and discussion-friendly in the exhibition’s supplementary events.
PHOTOGRAPHY CALLING! is accompanied by a copious publication (Steidl, Göttingen). Visitors will also be offered a comprehensive information programme.
The exhibition has been curated by Inka Schube, Curator for Photography and Media Art, Sprengel Museum Hannover, and Thomas Weski, Professor of “Curatorial Cultures”, Academy of Visual Arts, Leipzig.
