The Ueno Zoo (恩賜上野動物園 Onshi Ueno Dōbutsuen?) is a zoo, managed by the Tokyo Metropolitan Government, and located in Taito, Tokyo, Japan. It is Japan's oldest and most famous zoo, opened on March 20, 1882. It is a five-minute walk from the Park Exit of Ueno Station, with convenient access from Tokyo's public-transportation network. The Ueno Zoo Monorail, the first monorail in the country, connects the eastern and western parts of the grounds.
The zoo is located within Ueno Park, a large urban park that is home to several museums, a small amusement park, and other attractions.
As of March, 2003, the zoo has 422 species. The Sumatran tiger, and western lowland gorilla head the list of the zoo's population. Ueno has most variety of species on exhibition than any other zoo in Japan.
At some point, redistribution of the animals among Tokyo's other zoos (including Tama Zoo and Inokashira Nature Park) left Ueno without a lion. However, in response to public demand, Ueno borrowed a female from the Yokohama Municipal Zoo
As of 2008, recent animals at the Ueno Zoo included:
Giant panda (Ling Ling, Ueno's only giant panda, died of chronic heart failure on April 30, 2008, leaving Ueno Zoo without a panda for the first time since 1972.)[1] China has agreed to lend a male and female to Ueno[2].
A Lesser panda (also known as the Red Panda)
Other animals have included the Sumatran tiger the Asiatic lion, the Western lowland gorilla, the Polar bear, the Asian elephant, the Reticulated Giraffe. and the White rhinoceros

The zoo is also often home to zebras, Japanese macaques, red-crowned cranes, White-tailed eagles and King Penguins, along with goats, sheep, pigs, ostriches, and rabbits.

Sundararaman manages his farm mainly on his own with a little help from his son. As of May 2013, Sundararaman has 2 cows and a calf in his farm. This is a drastic reduction in number compared to what it was a few years back mainly due to the difficulties maintaining the huge plot and all that comes with it all alone.

“Be someone’s SUNSHINE when their skies are grey” shows the heart of a person who believed in being blessed to be blessing to the underprivileged and the needy.
Nehru Group of Institutions under the dynamic of leadership of Adv. P. Krishnadas, Managing Trustee and Dr. P. Krishnakumar, CEO & Secretary of NGI have successfully carried out this humble, deep and generous desire of their father Dr. P. K. Das for the ninth consecutive year with a special event on the 15th of December, 2017 marked to celebrate the birthday of the founder mentor.
Founder’s Day saw the Nehru Group of Institutions organizing this one-of-a-kind event of “Best Faculty Award” to recognize, honour and appreciate the hard work, dedication, focus and efforts of faculty from the neighbouring colleges in the state of Tamilnadu, Pondicherry and Kerala to take education to the next level. Going further, the institution after casting a critical eye over 1500 applicants who sent in their resumes and credentials for the prestigious award, under the mentorship of Dr. B. Ilango, Chief Jury, Former Vice Chancellor, Bharathiar University, selected 19 candidates for the category of “Best Faculty Award” and one candidate for the category “Lifetime Achievement Award”. The unbiased selection was not only based on the academic achievements of the pedagogues but also their desire to reach the unreached and underprivileged students and individuals in rural areas, helping them realize their dreams and aspirations.
The event started off with the “Tamil Thai Vaalthu” sung by the students of Nehru College, followed by the welcome address by Dr. B. Anirudhan, Principal of the Nehru Arts & Science College, who applauded the professors for their contribution not only to the field of education but also to the well-being of the community.
Adv. P. Krishnadas, Managing Trustee of Nehru Group of Institutions presided over the function. In his address to the all the dignitaries, participants and audience present at the event, he spoke about India emerging gradually and steadfastly as a country churning out job creators and entrepreneurs rather being jobseekers thus redefining the entire global education system. He put forth his vision and mission to make leaders of the aspiring students by empowering and imparting them with the best of subject, practical knowledge and developing their talents that would help them realize their dreams thus making them a force to reckon with in the new millennium. He concluded by saying,
” Life is short and the passion is big” and expressed his desire to regenerate and reengineer the structure of the education system soon rather than later. He thanked and congratulated the pedagogues for being the role models and mentors of the young minds of the country and also the people of Tamilnadu for their contribution, dedication and belief in bringing changes in the Indian education system.
Dr. Amrutha, Director of Nehru School of Architecture, introduced the distinguished Chief Guest, Dr. Paula Banerjee, Vice Chancellor, the Sanskrit College and University, University of Calcutta, honouring and applauding her endeavours and achievements in the field of Education.
In her speech to the attendees of the event, she began with expressing her regret in being fortunate to meet the founder mentor Dr. P. K. Das. On her being applauded for her honesty in the field of Education, she made known the fact that honesty is a virtue that should be a part of every individual that should be seen in their work throughout their life. She appreciated and applauded Adv. P. Krishnadas, Managing Trustee and Dr. P. Krishnakumar, CEO & Secretary of Nehru Group of Institutions for shouldering the responsibility and keeping the oil in the lamp burning of the dream that the founder mentor Dr. P. K. Das has envisioned for the young minds of the country. She expressed her gratitude to the faculty in striving hard to raise the level of education by their sincere, dedicated and determined approach to bring about a sea of change in the education system as a whole. She emphasised on the importance of research and for India to be self-sufficient rather than being dependent on global help. She gave the example of two famous universities of India, Nalanda and Dakshsheela, for the exemplary guidance and mentorship programs to the needs of learners of south Asia comparing NGI to such famous Universities. She also reiterated the fact that faculty in India should hone their skills and talents and raise their competency level, thus competing with the global standards and needs.
The release of the first draft of the Nehru Group of Institution Newsletter was followed by a brief address by Dr. B. Illango, Chief Jury, Former Vice Chancellor, Bharathiar University, who emphasised the necessity of the young minds receiving indepth training in honing their communication skills along with a practical approach in learning the subject matter of their respective fields of education. He applauded Dr. K. Porsezian, Pondicherry University for his efforts in coming up with equations that would help overcome the effects and challenges left behind by the striking of the deadly catastrophe of Tsunami.
Last but not the least, the dynamic Dr. Krishnakumar, CEO & Secretary of Nehru Group of Institutions, opened the eyes of all those present to the beautiful fact of being a blessing to others thus raising up the standard of GIVING than living by lending a hand of help and hope to those whose hard work and abilities go unrecognized and unseen. He said the “Best Faculty Award” not only bestowed honor to the deserving faculty but also made them responsible in taking the level of education a step further. Furthermore, it encouraged and motivated his college pedagogues to strive harder and make a mark in the lives and hearts of the young minds and society as a whole. The desire to reach out to every deserving faculty throughout the country was next on the agenda of the innumerable events planned for the year 2018. He expressed his heartfelt gratitude to the dignitaries, faculty awardees and their families, organizers, and each one present who made this event a memorable one.
The ceremony closed with the National Anthem with many of the faculty awardees expressing their joy, surprise and gratitude to Nehru Group of Institutions in recognizing and honouring their work.
Carlisle Castle is situated in Carlisle, in the English county of Cumbria, near the ruins of Hadrian's Wall. The castle is over 900 years old and has been the scene of many historical episodes in British history. Given the proximity of Carlisle to the border between England and Scotland, it has been the centre of many wars and invasions. Today the castle is managed by English Heritage and is open to the public. The castle until recently was the administrative headquarters of the former King's Own Royal Border Regiment now county headquarters to the Duke of Lancaster's Regiment and a museum to the regiment is within the castle walls.
History
Carlisle Castle was first built during the reign of William II of England, the son of William the Conqueror who invaded England in 1066. At that time, Cumberland (the original name for north and west Cumbria) was still considered a part of Scotland. William II ordered the construction of a Norman style motte and bailey castle in Carlisle on the site of an old Roman fort, with construction beginning in 1093. The need for a castle in Carlisle was to keep the northern border of England secured against the threat of invasion from Scotland. In 1122, Henry I of England ordered a stone castle to be constructed on the site. Thus a keep and city walls were constructed. The existing Keep dates from somewhere between 1122 and 1135.
Entrance to Carlisle Castle. (De Ireby's tower)
The act of driving out the Scots from Cumberland led to many attempts to retake the lands. The result of this was that Carlisle and its castle would change hands many times for the next 700 years. The first attempt began during the troubled reign of Stephen of England.
On 26 March 1296, John 'The Red' Comyn, since the fourth quarter of 1295 Lord of Annandale, led a Scottish host across the Solway to attack Carlisle. The then governor of the castle, one Robert de Brus, deposed Lord of Annandale, successfully withstood the attack, before forcing the raiders to retreat back through Annandale to Sweetheart Abbey.
From the mid-13th century until the unification of England and Scotland in 1603, Carlisle castle was the vital headquarters of the Western March, a buffer zone to protect the western portion of the Anglo-Scottish border.
Henry VIII converted the castle for artillery, employing the engineer Stefan von Haschenperg. For a few months in 1567, Mary, Queen of Scots was imprisoned within the castle, in the Warden’s Tower, which was demolished in 1835.[2] Later, the castle was besieged by the Parliamentary forces for eight months in 1644, during the English Civil War.
The most important battles for the city of Carlisle and its castle were during the second Jacobite rising against George II of Great Britain in 1745. The forces of Prince Charles Edward Stuart travelled south from Scotland into England reaching as far south as Derby. Carlisle and the castle were seized and fortified by the Jacobites. However they were driven north by the forces of William Augustus, Duke of Cumberland, the son of George II. Carlisle was recaptured, and the Jacobites were jailed and executed. That battle marked the end of the castle's fighting life, as defending the border between England and Scotland was not necessary with both countries again one in Great Britain.
After 1746, the castle became somewhat neglected, although some minor repairs were undertaken such as that of the drawbridge in 1783.
Some parts of the castle were then demolished for use as raw materials in the 19th century to create more or less what is visible to the visitor today. The Army moved in to take hold of the castle and in 1873 a system of recruiting areas based on counties was instituted under the Cardwell Reforms and the castle became the depot for the 34th (Cumberland) Regiment of Foot and the 55th (Westmorland) Regiment of Foot. Under the Childers Reforms, the 34th and 55th regiments amalgamated to form the Border Regiment with its depot in the castle in 1881. The castle remained the depot of the Border Regiment until 1959, when the regiment amalgamated with the King's Own Royal Regiment (Lancaster) to form the King's Own Royal Border Regiment. The Army Reserve still use parts of the castle: 8 Platoon C Company 4th Battalion the Duke of Lancaster's Regiment are based within the Burma Block alongside a Multi Cap-Badge detachment of the Army Reserve, including Medics, Engineers, Logisticicians, Intelligence and Infanteers from other Cap Badges. The Castle also houses The King’s Own Border Regiment Museum.

Managed to take this photo before being chased out by the staff of some random restaurant at the top floor of Marina Bay Sands. It's the only place [albeit cramped, but allows just enough space for a tripod] where there isn't a moat and a glass barrier blocking the scenery. Could have done much more with the photo if i wasn't trying to rush to take this photo before being caught in the somewhat-restricted area.

I finally managed to snag her. Had her about a week, but I'd been too busy to take these pics of her. Sorry! I have to admit, I love her. Her face-up is unique to her and I love those shoes. Now I need the darn fashion pack just for those XD
I have have managed to recover or reprocess a number of photographs from my 2011 visit to Belfast. I used a Sony NEX-5 which I did like even though it was very limited compared to by Canon cameras. I have since switched fully away from Cannon to Sony.
The Assembly Buildings was opened at Fisherwick Place in Belfast in 1905.
Designed in the architectural style of a Scottish baronial castle, the gothic structure boasts a 40m high clock tower, a bell tower housing Belfast’s only operational peal of 12 bells, and several exquisite stained glass windows.
For almost 80 years the Assembly Buildings, or Church House, as it was then known, operated entirely as the headquarters and General Assembly of the Presbyterian Church. In 1992, however, after its first significant refurbishment, the building took on a commercial persona, providing both a retail facility, Spires Mall, on the ground floor and offering the grand Main Hall as an outside conference venue.
A miserable morning when suddenly the sky for only 2-3 minutes transformed into such dramatic colours. Only just managed to get stopped and grab my phone.
I managed to take a nice walk/hike today. I suppose it must technically be a hike but I had trainers on!
7 miles all in which wasn't bad considering my size and the terrain involved. I was surprised at how much closer the aeroplanes seem up the top, I didn't realise it was so high. I would have gone on for longer but the fading daylight was against me. I even got caught in a snow shower at one point which was nice and I used the Nokia sports tracker to track my path via GPS so I could load it into google earth which was interesting but I'll have to find a way to keep the phone out of my pocket because the intermittent connection makes for an incredibly drunken looking route!
I used the mobile version of google maps too which was great for plotting my course and verifying my whereabouts because there are hundreds of old paths up there, forestry tracks, old public footpaths, farm related tracks, mining related tracks and paths and lots of different paths related to logging which sometimes terminate unexpectedly!
There's a lot of history between the mining and farming and hopefully in time I will discover if there are any remains to be found.
This photo does include the remains of what would have either been an overhead convener or a tramway on the opposite side of the valley. It probably served a quarry or tin or coal level, apart from the large mines everyone remembers with the pit heads there were hundreds of smaller level mines dotted along the place of varying ages. Only by getting out there and looking or to a lesser extent by consulting old OS maps can you discover just how much industry has been and gone with criminally few remnants left over as a reminder.
