Dec. 19, 2009, Times Square patrons have a snowball fight during a blizzard. This little kid hit me! And that'll be my excuse for him not being in focus, not my otherwise haphazard focusing abilities.

I’m reading an excellent book at the moment by the Nobel Memorial Prize winner in Economics, Daniel Kahnman - Thinking Fast and Slow.

 

The central thesis of the book is an investigation into the disunion between two modes of thought; fast, instinctive and emotional and slower, more deliberative, and more logical.

 

By researching various heuristics and biases, choices and rationality it is easy to learn why people place too much confidence in human judgement.

 

Interestingly, photography (to me) appears to sit within the comfortable intersection of learnt intuition and good judgement. Ultimately it can be defined as a skill and something that can be practiced and improved.

 

So with that said, here is a shot that I have been waiting for some time to find. That classic curving path through some colourful autumn trees. The only problem – my path is rather straight☺

 

There were countless paths like this one littered throughout the small towns I spent my days driving through in Canada and I am fairly sure I found a few others so maybe that perfect one is still in the bag. We’ll see..

We need to make our voices known to insist upon fair treatment for all children and people throughout the world, families should not be separated and jailed for no reason. There are many difficult problems to solve, but this one should not be neglected, we need to face it head-on and find positive solutions and surely we could do that by acting with our friends, not against them. The world is linked by technology, it is not the time to separate countries and nationalities, we all need one another, it is time to unite. This is not the time to be greedy and selfish, instead, we have to work together!

On the fourth day of the full lifting of the lockdown in Shanghai, cases of the outbreak broke out in a number of areas. Blocks with cases were sealed off with barbed wire while residents in their neighbourhoods were called out of their homes overnight to undergo nucleic acid screening.

LONDON — The army renewed clashes with insurgents early Monday after thousands of antigovernment protesters defied a state of emergency, massing in the streets, firing on armored military vehicles and attacking government offices.

 

Soldiers charged protesters and fired automatic weapons into the crowds to clear a major road leading out of the centre as England began another round of military operations aimed at quelling unrest. Hospitals said at least 60 people were wounded.

 

High Chancellor Adam Sutler declared the state of emergency last Sunday after violence broke out following attempts by residents of the nearly formed Swine flu quarantine zones to get medical treatment .

 

On Sunday, armed protesters attacked Norsfire officials in Liverpool as they was leaving the Interior Ministry North building, injuring several people in the process. The building was set on fire and attempts by fire fighter to deal with the blaze thwarted by demonstrators throwing rocks and bottles.

 

The emergency decree bans gatherings of more than five people had been issued, but bands of protesters roamed the city, defying deployments of soldiers and armored vehicles. The largest crowd gathered outside Norsefire offices, where demonstrations have continued for days, calling for the dissolution of the government.

 

Protesters erected barricades, including parked vehicles, in case the military moved against them, and some were seen filling bottles with gas as makeshift bombs.

 

The most militant demonstrators, known as “PROS,” have yet to issue demands or a political agenda other than call for the fall of the present Norsefire regime.

 

“Now that they have tanks on the streets, it is time for the people to come out in revolution,” said a protest organiser known only as V in the telephone interview with the IHT on Sunday evening. “And when it is necessary, we will take back our country.”

 

Speaking to an audience of party officials at Downing Street, the High chancellors office, leader, Adam Sutler, said a state of emergency was “the only way to save this nations fro the forces of anarchy and chaos.”

 

He added: “They will crush these cowards and we will remain here. We will start a war against all those who would destroy everything we have worked so hard to create.”

 

In a televised speech to the nation, Mr. Andrews, deputy head of the Office of Political Orthodoxy said execution orders were being prepared for leaders of the demonstrations.

 

“In the current situation, what we have to do is bring order to the country, bring back stability and have a firm hand on the wheel of government,” Mr. Andrews said. “The chancellor will ensure in every way that these terrorist cause no further damage to our proud nation.”

 

Mr. Andrews’s emergency decree reversed a police only approach critics said had contributed to the escalation of hostilities over the previous week in cities across England. At the meeting, in the beach resort of Blackpool, hundreds of protesters broke through a thin line of security officers to enter the hotel complex where the local Norsefire leaders were gathered. Several leaders were evacuated by helicopter.

 

The meeting was to have included the heads of the 10 members of the Norsefire regional command, top Territorial Militia commanders and representatives of local councils in the area. The officials had planned to discuss the handing of the Swine flu crisis.

 

Units of the 2nd Wessex brigade in conjunction with elements of the army air corp managed to restore order in matter of hours according to official reports. Unofficial reports speaks of a dozen dead and possibly hundreds of injured following the bombing of an old people’s home which the army spokesmen said was being used as an insurgent’s weapon depot.

 

“Yesterday we saw the true face of terrorism. There can be no doubt that those who seek to challenge the government are little more than thugs and criminals,” The Daily Mail said in a front-page editorial on Sunday. “We need to show those who would destroy our way of life that their vile efforts will not bear fruit.”

 

As a results of the troubles traffic in parts of London is virtually non - existent, with daily business curtailed or at a standstill. Many of England’s regional airports, which were shut by huge protests on Thursday, remain closed with only London Heathrow and Gatwick functioning normally. Hotels were open, and but foreigners said they did feel threatened.

 

“We are very worried about the situation,” said Thibault Quetel, 20, from France, who is studying economics at Cambridge university. “This is a problem between English. There hasn’t been any animosity toward foreigners.”

 

Insurgents and protesters, who mostly come from ethnic minorities and the urban working class, represent one side of a deep social and political divide that pits them against the supporters of Norsefire,” who demonstrated last Wednesday in support of government measures to stop the spread of Swine flu.

 

Norsefire supporters generally represent the country’s established power centers, including the royalists, the elite and middle class, and the military, who feel threatened by attempts to change the country’s balance of power.

 

As demonstrations by the Norsefire’s foes continued, court rulings cleared the way for the setting up of internment camps on the Isle of White and the forced deportation of protesters with roots outside the UK.

 

“We need to show insurgents that the government is capable of fending off any challenge to its authority,” said Tom Thorson, director of the Institute of Security and International Studies at Oxford University. “The use of the army to put down these acts of subversion is just the beginning.”

 

The deployment of army units to impose quarantine zones and deal with armed uprisings has resulted in an international outcry of the Norsefire government. The United Nations security council, which England quit two years ago issued an official condemnation of the use of air strikes and heavy artillery in urban areas.

from NY Times online: This bronze statue, part of a small sundial, which sits at the back of the bench, was designed by Albert Stewart and includes a bronze female figure attributed to Paul Manship, sculptor of the ''Prometheus'' at Rockefeller Center, Mr. Kuhn said. Another Latin inscription is on the sundial: ''Ne Diruatur Fuga Temporum,'' or ''Let it not be destroyed by the passage of time.''

 

From NYC Parks website: Though there are many benches in Central Park, few are as special as this elaborate exedra (curved outdoor bench) overlooking Conservatory Water, which honors public servant Waldo Hutchins (1822–1891).

 

Born in the same year as Central Park’s designer Frederick Law Olmsted (1822-1903), Hutchins was an original member of the Board of Commissioners of Central Park, the state-authorized legislative body which oversaw the park’s design, construction, and management in its infancy. Hutchins served as a park commissioner from 1857 to 1869, and again from 1887 to 1891. He also was a United States Congressman from 1879 to 1885.

 

This monument to Hutchins was erected in 1932, a gift of August S. Hutchins. It measures nearly four feet high by twenty-seven feet long, and its architect was Eric Gugler. The carved white marble stonework is attributed to Corrado Novani and the Piccirilli Brothers studio, the same firm responsible for the Maine Monument at Columbus Circle and the Lincoln Memorial in Washington, D.C. The sundial component was designed by Albert Stewart, and famed sculptor Paul Manship is credited with the small bronze figure at its center.

 

Three semicircular lines inscribed in the paving match the bench’s shadow lines at 10:00 a.m., noon, and 2:00 p.m. at the vernal and autumnal equinoxes. Etched into the back of the bench are the Latin phrases, Alteri Vivas Oportet Sit Vis Tibi Vivere and Ne Diruat Fuga Temporium. Loosely translated, these mean, “You should live for another if you would live for yourself,” and “Let it not be destroyed by the passage of time.” The bench and its inscriptions honor a man who helped create Central Park, promote personal fulfillment through public service, and acknowledge the preservation of those things we treasure. (see the bench here)

I was pictured and quoted in an article about absinthe (a long time interest and hobby of mine) in the Style section of the NY Times on Sunday, Jan. 4th.

In a week's time, everyone would see what they could never have imagined: in the name of epidemic prevention, the whole of Shanghai would be artificially turned into a dead city, with countless horrific farces, absurdities and tragedies unfolding every day: youtu.be/opvjfsRNtA8. Some delivery men would be confined at home, some would lose their jobs, and others would be taken to concentration camps as scapegoats for spreading Covid-19 - while some lucky ones would take the opportunity to raise the price of transportation and make a fortune.

The Long Run is a year long installation at MoMA dedicated to several artist with staying power. This is one detail of "Reanimation" by Joan Jonas.

The Museum of Modern Art is putting on a year long showing dedicated to "chronicling the continued experimentation of artists long after their breakthrough moments" and called The Long Run. The New York Times review is favorable and I'm enjoying it too.

 

This photo is one view of Joan Jonas’s “Reanimation" that seemed to have gotten the most press and is a recent acquisition of MoMA. When it was first presented Ms. Jonas was almost eighty.
