It is important to return to previous images found on stones from this ancient site in order to better understand this unknown culture and their distant technologies yet to be understood.
This stone could easily be disregarded as a simple stone fragment, an or accident of nature; however any stone found on this site could not have been an accident of nature; these stones were intentionally placed on this site to be maintained in entirety for an immense period of deep time, all and collectively holding specific technologies and messages yet to be translated and completely understood.
The beauty in these stones is often what you cannot see with the naked eye; it is the images, pigments, and shadows that appear only with the extended exposure of a modern digital camera. The arduous process of a traditional camera is far to antiquated to capture these hidden pigments and shadow images because the extended time period between exposure, processing, and review is simply too long. The traditional arduous antiquated process of relying on a "film-based" exposure system makes it impossible to study this unknown light technology existing on the quartz-based pigment stones from this site.
This blue pigment light figure that suddenly appears, and just as quickly disappears; is the true unknown on this ancient North American site, and the culture responsible for these stones.
All the figural images on the surface of this stone appear to be facing this illusive blue Shadow/light figure appearing on the left edge of this stone; it appears to take on the silent aura as a figure of "Grand and Supreme" Wisdom serving as a guide to the afterlife of this ancient culture and beyond.
This particular blue aura is most likely influenced by the earth's position to the Winter Solstice, the air temperature, and the time of day as the sun passes east to west across the horizon throughout the shortened early winter day.

Thank you Mawi for posting this on my thread <3
Original size so you can read it farm5.static.flickr.com/4114/4906592807_0c4c42fe46_o_d.jpg
so ummm... I made a new gmail account and twitter account. trying to keep my work going as normal ^___^
Thank you all for the lovely responses and giving me all ideas about what to do etc <3 <3 <3
I have in plan to make a website of my own, but right now the time is really crazy with my final semester eating my life >__<
I will also answer everyone's comments asap! <3
oh btw... I am not sure if this is a good or crazy idea... but it has been on my mind for some time now. For people who commission faceups, would you perhaps like to have videos showing the faceup instead of the photos? Maybe the look of it would come across better?(from many more perspectives also) I could give it a try and use both photos and videos a couple of times and then see how it goes.
Pueblo Bonito is an important Ancestral Puebloan site and one of the largest Great House sites in the Chaco Canyon region. It was constructed over a period of 300 years, between AD 850 and 1150-1200 and it was abandoned at the end of the 13th century.
Architecture at Pueblo Bonito
The site has a semicircular shape with clusters of rectangular rooms that served for dwelling and storage. Pueblo Bonito has more than 600 rooms arranged on multistory levels. These rooms enclose a central plaza in which the Puebloans built kivas, semi-subterranean chambers used for collective ceremonies. This construction pattern is typical of Great House sites in the Chacoan region during the heyday of ancestral Puebloan culture. Between AD 1000 and 1150, a period called by archaeologists Bonito phase, Pueblo Bonito was the main center of the Puebloan groups living at Chaco Canyon.
The majority of the rooms at Pueblo Bonito have been interpreted as the houses of extended families or clans, but surprisingly few of these rooms present evidence of domestic activities. This fact along with the presence of 32 kivas and 3 great kivas, as well as the evidence for communal ritual activities, like feasting, make some archaeologists suggest that Pueblo Bonito had an important religious, political and economic function in the Chaco system.
Luxury Goods at Pueblo Bonito
A further aspect that supports the centrality of Pueblo Bonito in the Chaco Canyon region is the presence of luxury goods imported through long-distance trade. Turquoise and shell inlays, copper bells, incense burners, and marine shell trumpets, as well as cylindrical vessels and macaw skeletons have been found in tombs and rooms within the site. These items arrived at Chaco and Pueblo Bonito through a sophisticated system of roads that connect some of the main great houses across the landscape and whose function and significance have always puzzled archaeologists.
These long-distance items speak for a highly specialized elite living at Pueblo Bonito, probably involved in rituals and collective ceremonies. Archaeologists believe that the power of the people living at Pueblo Bonito came from its centrality in the sacred landscape of ancestral Puebloans and their unifying role in the ritual life of the Chacoan peoples.
Recent chemical analyses on some of the cylindrical vessels found at Pueblo Bonito have shown traces of cacao. This plant not only comes from southern Mesoamerica, thousands of miles south of Chaco Canyon, but its consumption is historically linked to elite ceremonies.

During the Inca Empire, the Inti Raymi was the most important of four ceremonies celebrated in Cusco, as related by Inca Garcilaso de la Vega. The celebration took place in the Haukaypata or the main plaza in the city.
The Inti Raymi ("Festival of the Sun") was a religious ceremony of the Inca Empire in honor of the god Inti, one of the most venerated gods in Inca religion. It really was the celebration of the Winter Solstice - the shortest day of the year in terms of the time between sunrise and sunset. In South America, which falls below the equator, the months of June & July are Winter months.
According to chronicler Garcilaso de la Vega, Sapa Inca Pachacuti created the Inti Raymi to celebrate the new year in the Andes of the Southern Hemisphere. Since 1944, a theatrical representation of the Inti Raymi has been taking place at Sacsayhuamán (two km. from Cusco) on June 24 of each year, attracting thousands of tourists and local visitors. The ceremony was also said to indicate the mythical origin of the Incas. It lasted for nine days and was filled with colorful dances and processions, as well as animal sacrifices to ensure a good cropping season. The last Inti Raymi with the Inca Emperor's presence was carried out in 1535, after which the Spanish conquest and the Catholic Church share it.
In 1944, a historical reconstruction of the Inti Raymi was directed by Faustino Espinoza Navarro and indigenous actors. The first reconstruction was largely based on the chronicles of Garcilaso de la Vega and only referred to the religious ceremony.
Inti Raymi is still celebrated in indigenous cultures throughout the Andes. Celebrations involve music, colorful costumes (most notable the woven aya huma mask) and the sharing of food. In many parts of the Andes, this celebration has been connected to the festivals of Saint John the Baptist, which falls on the day after the summer solstice (June 21).
An experimental video I made by video recording the original video as it played on my computer, hitting pause and rewind at times. "Music" is by Of Montreal.

The Mortuary Temple of Ramesses III at Medinet Habu is an important New Kingdom period structure in the West Bank of Luxor in Egypt. In ancient times Madinat Habu was known as Djanet and according to ancient belief was the place were Amun first appeared. Both Hatshepsut and Tuthmosis III built a temple dedicated to Amun here and Later Rameses III constructed his larger memorial temple on the site.
First Pylon – the temple of Rameses III
During his time Djanet became the administrative centre of Western Thebes. The whole temple complex was surrounded by a massive fortified enclosure wall, with an unusual gateway at the eastern entrance, known as the pavilion gate. This structure, a copy of a Syrian migdol fortresses is something you would no expect to see in Egypt. Rameses III, a military man probably saw the virtue in such a structure. It is likely Rameses resided here from time to time because a royal palace was attached at the south of the open forecourt of this temple, while priests’ dwellings and administrative buildings lay on either side of the temple. Originally a canal with a harbour outside the entrance, connected the temple to the Nile. But this was obliterated by the desert long ago.
In later times, because of its strong fortifications, it was the place of refuge during the civil war between the High Priest of Amun at Karnak and the viceroy of Kush. In the period of the Twenty Fifth and Twenty Sixth Dynasties (700 BC) the wives of Amon were worshipped in the Chapels called the Divine Adoratrices of Amun. During the Greek and Roman periods the site was expanded and between the 1st and 9th centuries AD a Coptic city was built and the temple was used as a Christen church.
The exterior walls are carved with religious scenes and portrayals of Rameses III’s wars against the Libyans and the Sea Peoples. The first pylon depicts the king smiting his enemies and also has a list of conquered lands. The interior walls also have a wealth of well preserved bas-reliefs some of which still retain their original paint work.
Important to the devotion of Mazzarinesi, the Church of Santa Maria del Mazzaro, 1782, originally dedicated to Santa Maria delle Grazie. According to historical sources, the current religious building was built on the previous three other factories dating from the XIIth century. The third, in particular, was destroyed by the earthquake of 1693. The church holds two important artifacts of the XIIth century: a painted panel depicting Saint Maria Delle Grazie and a wooden crucifix.
Eretta intorno al 1100 da Manfredi, distrutta dal terremoto del 1693 e ricostruita dal 1760. Il tempio a tre navate con pareti decorate in stile barocco siciliano su progetto di Bonaiuto da Siracusa.

Two important signatories of the National Covenant were James Graham, Marquess of Montrose, and Archibald Campbell, Marquess of Argyll. Both men professed loyalty to King Charles, but when the covenanters began to force people to sign the National Covenant, Montrose broke with what he perceived to be the excesses of Argyll's reforming party, and led a royalist army in Scotland against Argyll.
Montrose was executed outside St Giles' at the Mercat Cross in 1650, and his head placed on a spike outside the church. After the Restoration of King Charles II in 1660, Montrose's head and body were exhumed and reinterred in St Giles' with full honours. His memorial stands in the Chepman Aisle
The Origins of St Giles'
There is record of a parish church in Edinburgh by the year 854, served by a vicar from a monastic house, probably in England. It is possible that the first church, a modest affair, was in use for several centuries before it was formally dedicated by the bishop of St Andrews on 6 October 1243. The parish church of Edinburgh was subsequently reconsecrated and named in honour of the patron saint of the town, St Giles, whose feast day is celebrated on 1 September.
The Covenanters
In 1638, those opposed to King Charles’ plans to reintroduce episcopacy in Scotland signed the National Covenant. In 1643, following a split amongst those who disagreed with the king, the Solemn League and Covenant was drawn up and then ratified by the General Assembly of the Church of Scotland, then meeting in the Preston Aisle of St Giles’. The National Covenant may still be seen today in the Preston Aisle.
That St Giles, a 7th century hermit (and, later, abbot) who lived in France, became the patron of both town and church was probably due to the ancient ties between Scotland and France.
According to legend, Giles was accidentally wounded by a huntsman in pursuit of a hind and, after his death in the early 8th century, there were dedicated to him hospitals and safe houses for cripples, beggars and lepers were established throughout England and Scotland within easy reach of the impoverished and the infirm. St Giles is usually depicted protecting a hind from an arrow, which had pierced his own body, a fine relief of which rests in the tympanum over the west (main) doors of the Cathedral.
St Giles' in the Middle Ages
St Giles' was founded in the 1120s when the Scottish royal family, the sons of Queen (Saint) Margaret and King Malcolm Canmore, especially David I (1124-1153) made strenuous efforts to spread Catholic Christian worship throughout the Scottish lowlands.
This church was probably quite small, Norman (i.e. Romanesque, with rounded arches and elaborate carving) in style, like others built at the same time. Few traces of it survive in the present building.
In 1385, a much larger church (early Gothic, pointed arches and simple octagonal pillars) was partially burned. No record has been found of the building of this second church. It was quickly repaired.
Over the next 150 years many chapels were added. These included chapels set up by the craftsmen's guilds of Edinburgh, chapels endowed by prominent merchants and nobles, and a chapel for a relic of St Giles. By the middle of the 16th century, there were around fifty altars in the church.
The Church becomes a Cathedral
For more than a century after the Reformation, worship in St Giles’ was disrupted by the disagreements about church government. In 1633, King Charles I appointed Scottish Episcopal bishops in Scotland and in 1635 William Forbes became the first bishop of the new diocese of Edinburgh, with St Giles’ as its cathedral, which it remained until 1638 and again from 1661-1689. That St Giles’ is commonly called a cathedral dates from this period.
St Giles' in the 20th and 21st Centuries
In 1911 the Thistle Chapel (architect: Sir Robert Lorimer) was completed, to be used by the Knights of the Thistle, Scotland's order of chivalry. Though small, it is in 15th century high Gothic style and full of elaborate carvings in wood and stone and of colourful heraldry.
Over the last hundred years or more, St Giles' has hosted important events including state occasions and services of national thanksgiving.
A new restoration programme began in 1977. In addition to essential repairs to roof, stone and glass, the interior has been lightened, the focus of worship moved from the east end to a new sanctuary in the middle of the church ("the crossing") and a magnificent new organ installed. Space has been converted from old cellars and crypts for meeting and eating. Much remains to be done

The positive symptoms of this age (not a medical term like other eyes) affect the male prostate gland. Statistics show that one in six men will develop prostate cancer in their lifetime and one in 35 will lose it. In addition, the PSA physical examination is part of the annual medical examination to determine the condition of the prostate.

hello everyone (to anyone one thats still there lol i only have 5 followers now) I know i have been inactive and posted hardly anything in more than a year (also because i realised my account was totally cringe)
But anyways, to be honest there was only one reason i started this account up again and that was because of one of my best friends (who will remain anonymous) He comes from Iraq in mosul which is currently controlled by ISIL. if his father doesn't get a degree or a higher education he will be moved back to Iraq and face the risk of being punished purely because he is not part of ISIL and our government says he is not fit to stay in the EU.
I know it doesn't mean much but i hope this account will get some recognition and some light will be shined on this issue.

Appearing up to 14 percent bigger and 30 percent brighter than an average full moon, as noted by sciencealert.com, November's supermoon could very well be a once-in-a-lifetime event for many.
The moon is at the closest to Earth it has been since 1948. At its closest point the moon will be only 221,524 miles from Earth, according to NASA.
That makes it the most "super" of moons — at least so far this century. The next Super Moon this close to the Earth will not be until 2034.
*********************************************************************
This photo was taken one hour before the peak full moon; which occurred here just after dawn and when the moon was below the horizon.
*********************************************************************
Colors are what was seen with the naked eye.
The red tinge to the moon was very brief: as was the dawn Blue Hour. These colors happened for only a minute or so as the moon set in the West & the sun quickly rose in the East. There is some color fringing around the moon. That was "as shot", but I have no known explanation for the effect.
"The most important thing that I have realized is that leprosy is a curable disease and if medication is taken properly and self-care activities are continued, there is no reason for it to prevent me from doing anything. I don’t want to lose any part of my body to leprosy. I love myself and am precious to my family as a loving wife and mother."

My dolls are particularly important to me when I am troubled. I know that most people consider the things they bring to my world as artificial, or an illusion, but to me, they are a real replacement for the beauty, uniqueness and tenderness that I often miss in the "real world". Their presence and the positive things they add to my life are just as real, and I guess that after all I can say I am proud I play with dolls :)
Sorry for the random rant, I am having a difficult time and Cossette is playing with me to get my mind to better spirits.
Cossette is a Soulkid Miribyeol with ooak face up, wearing an outfit by Souldoll, accessorized with handmade hair bow, necklace and socks from various sources, and dollheart shoes.

Lake Elementaita is a shallow a soda lake located on the floor of Kenya's Great Rift Valley at an altitude of 1,776 meters, 20 km southeast of the city of Nakuru. Its surface area is 18 square kilometers, although the water level fluctuates. Its deepest point is 1.9 meters; much of the lake is less than one meter deep. 450 bird species can be found here; it is an important stop for migratory birds. The lake is designated as Ramsar Site and as Important Bird Area (IBA). Lake Elementaita Wildlife Sanctuary encompasses the whole of Lake Elementaita and its riparian land; it became a UNESCO World Heritage Site as part of the Kenya Lake System in 2011.
The Soysambu Conservancy includes much of Lake Elementaita and borders Lake Nakuru National Park to the west. It covers 190 square km (48,000 acres). It was created on the grounds of Soysambu Ranch in 2007 to conserve the flora, fauna, and scenery of the Soysambu Ranch; it offers a home to over 450 bird species and 50 mammal species, including the critically endangered Rothschild (or Nubian) giraffe. The land of the ranch was appropriated by Hugh Cholmondeley, 3rd Baron Delamere, in 1906. The ranch still is owned and operated by the Delamere family.
