You learn something new everyday. Always assumed the masses of webbing that appear on gorse bushes were spider related, but thanks to Dom Greves expert knowledge and good eye I had a closer look at one example earlier today.
This seethig mass of tiny spider mites are the real culprit and one of the very few things that eat gorse. They have even been exported to countries around the world where gorse is a real pest plant as biological control.
This is a close crop, mainly because I like the detail of the web in the centre here!
The instagrams from the RSA's 2013 Benjamin Franklin Medal ceremony - presented to Walter Isaacson in New York City.
The award dinner was made possible in part by the generosity of members of the Benjamin Franklin Medal Committee.
Proceeds from the event will benefit the RSA-US Challenge Fund and RSA-US Student Design Awards Program, two foundation blocks of the core initiatives of the RSA in the United States. Both of these programs are going into their second year, and both have an impressive track record of inspiring and empowering young social innovators – perhaps among them a future Benjamin Franklin Medalist.
The Benjamin Franklin Medal has a rich history dating back to its inaugural year of 1956, the 250th anniversary of Franklin’s birth and the 200th anniversary of his membership to the RSA. It is awarded to individuals, groups and organizations who have made profound efforts to forward social progress in areas closely linked to the RSA’s agenda. Winners over the years have included General Colin Powell, Senator George Mitchell, Dame Judi Dench, Peter Ustinov, Margot Fonteyn, and David Attenborough. Long time Fellows will remember the Medal presentation to William Hewlett under the stars at Menlo College; or the moving speech given by UK Ambassador to the UN Sir Jeremy Greenstock at the event honoring Phil Lader just a few weeks after 9/11.
Each celebration is unique, and every medalist inspires us in a different way.

Erected by a Roman consul Gaius Julius Aquila in honour of his father. It was built in AD 114-117 and used an ingenious method of humidity control. Air channels ran behind the niches where precious rolled manuscripts were stored. The library was damaged first by the Goths and then by an earthquake in 1000. The statues occupying the niches in the front are Sophia (wisdom),Arete (virtue), Ennoia (intellect) and Episteme (knowledge)

this was taken at Bang Melea, a temple 1.5 hours away from Angkor Wat in Cambodia. It was one of the most magical places I have ever been to and a photographer's paradise. The temple housed all the ancient libraries. The state of the temples isn't great...most of the interiors are filled with rubble just like the one above. The good thing about that though is that you can climb through the rubble and discover chambers...makes you feel very Laura Croftish :)
With over 1,000 temples, each unique and individual in its own way, there is no shortage of subjects to shoot in Siem Reap....worth going!!!
After Self-Realization, we should use the knowledge of the Self in dealing with people.In case of dealing with a murderer, we should consider the murderer as the relative part and there is pure Soul inside him. The murder committed is result of his past karmas and is not actually responsible for this deed as on today. He might be suffering inwardly for this bad deed.

A cadet studies their "warrior knowledge" of items that they are required to know, such as the Encampment staff, Cadet Oath, and the Core Values of the Civil Air Patrol.
Whatever you know about the soul is through the intellectual knowledge. It is information and not realization. Real experience of pure soul only possible by fully enlightened person.
