This species is usually found in deep waters away from shore. This one was found "resting" on the bottom during a morning snorkel. My opinion was that it was dead but I was assured by the knowledgable crew that it was alive. However, I wasn't allowed to poke it to test that out.
I just joined the library today, after ten years in Korea it is good to have access to English books again. Perks of being home I guess. Borrowed some Photoshop technique books and this photo is the result. A composite of three images, the main photo...a statue (which I shot in Busan a while back), plus some texture and Bokeah that I got from: www.flickr.com/photos/lesbrumes/ Thanks to Lesbrumes for sharing your textures.
Just realized my pro account has expired and my last upload to Flickr was late in 09. Gosh, have I been away from Flickr for that long?.

I am a cradle-born Catholic whose grandparents immigrated to the USA from Italy, Poland, and Ukraine. My paternal grandfather died before I was born, and I never gained any knowledge about his faith, although my father was very active in the Catholic Church and attended mass faithfully along with my mother. My paternal grandmother took her Catholic faith to an extreme, often ignoring the people around her. My maternal grandparents did not attend Mass as I was growing up, although their eight children received the seven sacraments. I don't know why they didn't actively worship.
Since I viewed my faith through the eyes of a child, I didn't know how to defend it when I was seriously challenged during my college years by agnostics, atheists, and non-Catholic Christians. I turned 21 at the end of the 1960's and listened to the worldly view that told me to drop out of anything organized and established; it told me to make love, not war; it was a time of questioning and protesting. From age 21 to age 30, I turned my back on God. I no longer worshiped or prayed. I thought I was a "good" person, but I totally ignored God. I am so grateful to God that I survived that time.
I married in my late twenties and I had our first child by age 30. It was the miracle of bringing other souls into the world, and moving to a rural area that brought me back to God, and to the fullness of the Catholic faith. My husband was Christian, but not Catholic. Since we had made the decision to baptize our two children, we started attending Mass on a semi-regular basis. When we moved to rural Georgia and attended a small Catholic church, we no longer were just "Sunday Catholics" -- but were invited to take part in many activities as part of the "parish community."
My husband began to believe in the real presence of Christ in the consecrated bread and wine. He longed to receive Christ in the Eucharist, and after 3 years participating in the RCIA program, he made the decision to embrace the Catholic faith fully. It made a very significant difference in our marriage, and drew us closer in a way we had never been before.
I eventually took on the position of Director of Religious Education at our church. I knew so little of the faith even though I had received all the sacraments and attended catechism classes through the 6th grade. But as I mentioned before, I had the faith of a child even though I was an adult. I think that's what happens with so many fallen-away Catholics. They leave their faith without knowing the fullness of their faith. As they turn their backs on God, it becomes so natural to listen to what the world is teaching at the moment, and the world's message is not God's message. We search for what we think will give us fulfillment and happiness, but we are following our will, not God's will. We put the natural before or in place of the supernatural.
Love is what we need, and the purest and truest of all love is the supernatural love of God. Since God is perfect love, He knows how to love us by giving us free will, knowing that the gift of free will may turn us away from Him. We are not His slaves, but we are his adopted children through the most perfect sacrifice of His Son. I can not judge another if they don't choose God and rather believe in the natural. I can not judge others who believe in a God that differs from the God the Catholic Church teaches about.
So often I hear the bitter voices of people who have left the Catholic faith, who put down the Church, who ridicule the Pope. These voices are often featured on public radio. I also hear the voices of non-Catholics who believe the Catholic faith is a diabolic cult. There is a lot of judging by others against the Catholic faith, but their voices cry out often due to misunderstandings, or the result of what a person representing the faith did or said to them that damaged them. I know that God reveals Himself to us; we humans don't define who God is. God is not relative depending on one's thoughts or feelings at a given time. God is not limited by or locked into our past, present, or future time. He is eternal. We cannot fully grasp eternity even as our minds and machines develop to higher levels. We are here on Earth to be tested for our own good, and to prove our love for God since we have been given the promise of eternal life.
If we don't pray for the virtues, but continually choose the vices and continue down that path in our life through the moment of our death, we have chosen to lock God out. I totally believe that the Catholic Church through the Pope and the teaching magisterium opens our souls, hearts, and minds to the true and full offerings of the one true God of all creation throughout all time.
"I am very thankful to the Mahatmas for uplifting me during that hard time. I felt that its Pujya Dadashri who has lifted me out of that bad situation. With the help of this knowledge, I was able to keep separation even in that situation of grief and when sometimes it becomes worse I start talking to file 1. The biggest wish is "May this satsang never end".

2011, an Innovation Knowledge Centre (IKC) for Smart Infrastructure and Construction was set up, based in the Department of Engineering, but involving colleagues from across the University – in the Department of Architecture, the Computer Laboratory and Judge Business School. The IKC works with construction, infrastructure and technology firms. Its aim is ambitious: its founders believe that it could kick-start a new industry dedicated to smart infrastructure and construction in the UK.
The Toronto Zoo has a neat little path through the North American area that has signs explaining how First Nations Peoples have used various plants, animals, etc over time. It was Liam who insisted to take the trail, and I found it very interesting. My grandmother was of Aboriginal heritage. It's too far back for me to have any official status, but my mother has recently embraced the culture and endeavored to learn more about it.

1909 TEMPLE OF KNOWLEDGE CHIROPRACTIC INSTITUTE. Class and faculty of 1909. D.J. Hayden was president and dean. Perhaps this school was the one D.D. Palmer and Alva Gregory started in 1907.
Kasi, Zach, and I took a walk around old downtown Denton, TX today.. We went to the recycled book store and some antique stores and I found these interesting sights around...
This is my favorite of the four I put up today.... It's amazing to think that for almost any conceivable topic, there is someone out there who has studied it and put their thoughts on paper.... It makes me realize how little I really know...

This blog post has a little more conceptual thought that will probably require time to read David Amerland's book, Google Semantic Search (see the reference below to get an idea of what I was reading to understand the thoughts in this blog post)
The knowledge graph is a semantic search concept that is all about interpreting what is seen in the internet. The same concepts can be applied to the enterprise, and to be honest is probably a lot easier to do. If I understand how the knowledge graph works, the knowledge graph is built by manually and automatically. The automatic part is completed by the level of trust sites are given and the level of trust of information the search engines find. The knowledge graph is grown over time as it determine what is most trustworthy.
One of the many thoughts I had on the concept of the knowledge graph in the enterprise is that it can be grown systematically based on employee profiles. The links to project sites, links to primary contacts, links to topics that are related are often found in employee profiles. So Building out an enterprise profile is key to creating a social network of connections. The profile is a key piece of information that can help the knowledge graph grow - growing through the connections of topics to employees and employees to employees and then back from employees to topics.This note was inspired by +David Amerland 's book, Google Semantic Search - Amazon location 1727
