I was surprised to find out this is a swallowtail as it lacks the tail on its wings.

A long lost friend found me on Facebook. She had some photos of me that I haven't seen in over 20 years.
I remember I used to wear mock necks all the time to try to hide my huge Adam's Apple, which I still hate.
I think the reason I don't shave anymore is that I didn't have to shave until I was about 25!

The 4th grade class at the Baker-Ripley Promise Community School campus learn about the importance of voting from guest lecturer Rafael Palafox of the NALEO educational fund. Following the lesson and a demo of e-slate machines, students heard campaign speeches from classmates and voted for their class president and treasurer using the e-slates, pre-loaded with the names of the young candidates.
The candidates also presented their campaign speeches to the ESL classes who participated in the mock election.

freute sich über eine gelungen Veranstaltung Verena Schmid, Marktleitung bei EDEKA Märkte Möck​.
Christ Mocked is a small 13th-century panel painting by the Italian artist Cimabue, in tempera on a poplar panel. It depicts the Mocking of Jesus and is one of three panels known from a polyptych depicting the passion of Jesus. It was discovered in the kitchen of an elderly woman in Northern France. In October 2019 it sold at auction for €24 million, a record for a pre-1500 artwork. It is believed to be the first work by Cimabue to have been auctioned.
Christ Mocked measures 25.8 cm × 20.3 cm × 1.2 cm (10.16 in × 7.99 in × 0.47 in) and depicts the mocking of Jesus prior to his crucifixion. The work is painted with egg tempera on a gold leaf background, on a thinned and slightly bowed poplar panel prepared with layers of gesso ground in which a canvas is embedded. It is thought to date from 1280.
It is thought to be part of a diptych, with four painted scenes on each wing, depicting the passion of Christ, sometimes known as the Diptych of Devotion. Two other scenes by Cimabue, painted on wood panels of similar size, have been identified as parts of the same polyptych: Virgin and Child with Two Angels in the collection of the National Gallery in London (discovered in Suffolk in 2000) and The Flagellation of Christ, in the Frick Collection in New York since 1950.
Christ Mocked is one of only a dozen works that have been attributed to Cimabue, none of which were signed by the artist. It shares similarities with Cimabue's other works in the way that the facial expressions and buildings are depicted and in the use of light and perspective. The National Gallery describes the polyptych as representing "a crucial moment in the history of art" as it comes from a time when Italian painters began to move away from the Byzantine tradition towards a more naturalistic representation of events.
It is the only known small-scale work of Cimabue to use the same techniques to display a crowd of figures that can be seen in other, larger-scale works, such as his frescoes at Assisi. The scene follows the biblical account in Matthew 27:27–30. Jesus, in red robe and blue cloak, is standing at the centre of the composition, with his eyes uncovered in the Byzantine style: in contemporary depictions from Northern European, he would be seated and blindfolded. He is impassive, with arms limp and a sorrowful expression, among a crowd of slightly shorter men who are angrily striking Christ with rods, a sheathed sword, or their bare hands; one appears to be reaching up to remove Christ's halo. To either side stands a person with a sheathed sword; buildings in the background in Byzantine reverse perspective frame the scene under a luminous gold sky.
An infrared reflectogram has revealed Cimabue's underdrawing. Damage to the paint shows the panel was removed from the bottom left corner of a frame, and the edges have been evened-up with a dark border. It is suspected that an original red border is underneath, like the two other surviving paintings from the diptych, which also show similar woodworm holes. With the other two panels, they appear to be three of a set of four panels, with the upper right panel missing. A reconstruction of an unusual c. 1320 eight-panel Florentine diptych by the Master of San Martino alla Palma suggests the fourth panel would be a crowd scene of The Betrayal of Christ, while the four panels of a hypothesised second leaf would depict the Way to Calvary, the Crucifixion, the Entombment, and the Last Judgment. A similar Venetian diptych c.1300 held by the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts also has six Passion scenes, with the Virgin and Child and the Last Judgment. All seem to be associated with communities of Clarissan nuns in northern Italy.
Discovery and sale
The painting was discovered hanging above the hotplate in the kitchen of an elderly woman living in Compiègne, northern France. The woman was in her 90s and was selling the house, which had been built in the 1960s, and moving from the area. Ahead of the move in June 2019 the owner called in a local auctioneer to determine if any of her possessions were worth selling, the remainder were to be thrown away. The owner and her family recognised Christ Mocked only as an old religious icon and thought it had little value. The owner could not remember how the work came to be in her possession, but thought it to be of Russian origin.
The auctioneer had only one week to evaluate the contents of the house, but noticed Christ Mocked almost immediately. They thought it to be of an Italian primitivist nature and possibly worth €300,000 to €400,000. The owner was advised to send it away for testing and it went to Eric Turquin and his colleagues at the Turquin Gallery in Paris. Testing under infrared light revealed similarities with other works by Cimabue and it was attributed to him. Some other items from the house sold at auction for €6,000 and the remainder were sent to landfill.
The work was put up for auction at the Actéon Hôtel des Ventes, in Senlis, Oise, on 27 October 2019 with an estimate of €4–6 million. Some 800 people attended the auction and there was interest from several foreign museums. The work reached a hammer price of €19.5 million, which reached €24 million once selling fees were included. The winning bid was placed by London-based dealer Fabrizio Moretti, on behalf of two anonymous collectors. This set a new world record for a pre-1500 artwork sold at auction. The price was believed to be so high as it was the first time a work by Cimabue had sold at auction. Both seller and purchaser decided to remain anonymous, though the buyers have been reported to be two Chilean nationals living in the United States. On 23 December 2019 the French government put in place a 30-month ban on export of the work. It was hoped that funds could be raised to purchase it so it can go on display at the Louvre alongside the artist's Maestà .

Bryant University's team celebrates winning third place, Outstanding Trial Team, at the Mock Trial Trinvitational.
While jeeping thru the jungles of Sathyamangalam Forest Division in the stretch from Gulithuraipatti towards Mangalapatti, there was this elephant herd crossed the road before us and they were heading deeper into the jungle. Just when we were about to start stalking the herd we realised that we had actually intercepted the herd’s crossing and there were still 3 elephants that had not crossed and were waiting to cross.
