Here we see the difference between the PHP MV-9 (flush barrel) and MV-17 (extended barrel). The barrel lengths of the MV-9 and MV-17 are 105mm (4.13 inch) and 140mm (5.51 inch) respectively. Both pistols were made more or less concurrently, though sporadically, over a three-year period during Croatia's War for Independence in the early 1990's.
The MV pistols borrowed freely from the designs of the Walther P-38 and the Beretta 92 series (called the M9 by the U.S. Military.)
Were one to field strip the MV, the Walther and the Beretta side by side, the similarities become apparent. The MV borrows the P-38's exposed barrel and slide stop and the Beretta's single recoil spring, takedown lever and high-capacity magazine. (The P-38 has twin recoil springs set into the slide rails.) Unlike either of its "parents," the MV has the safety lever mounted on the frame recessed into a cutout in the left grip panel. The safety lever does not decock the hammer.

Helianthus tuberosus, conocido como tupinambo, topinambur, pataca, papa (o "papa alcachofa") de Jerusalén, patata de Judea, marenquera, o aguaturma, es una especie nativa de América cultivada por su tubérculo comestible. También llamada pataca macuca en zonas de Aragón.
Esta especie alcanza una altura de hasta 4 m. Las hojas son simples, ovales, dentadas y de tacto áspero. Las flores son de color amarillo oro y se agrupan en racimos. Los frutos son aquenios muy parecidos a las semillas de girasol. Sus tubérculos son alargados e irregulares , por lo general 7.5-10 centímetros ( 3,0 a 3,9 pulgadas) de largo y 3-5 centímetros ( 1,2 a 2.0 pulgadas) de espesor, varían en color de marrón pálido a blanco, rojo o púrpura; se asemejan vagamente a la raíz del jengibre y poseen un sabor muy similar a la alcachofa. Su cultivo es sencillo y las plantas pueden crecer solas, pero se recomienda replantar los tubérculos en suelo fértil.
A diferencia de la mayoría de los tubérculos, pero en común con otros miembros de la familia Asteraceae (incluida la alcachofa), los tubérculos almacenan, en vez de almidón, la inulina, carbohidrato que por medio de la cocción se transforma en fructosa. Por está razón sus tuberculos son una fuente importante de fructosa para la industria.
Esta especie fue cultivada por los amerindios mucho antes de la llegada de los europeos. El explorador francés Samuel de Champlain encontró sembrados en Cape Cod en 1605.
Referente a la etimología del nombre tupinambo, este proviene de los Tupinambá o sea los indígenas del Brasil antiguos hablantes de lenguas tupí-guaraní, algunos de los cuales fueron llevados a París en 1613 en la misma época en que se difundió el cultivo de esta planta en Francia y luego en el resto de Europa.
Aan de boorden van de Geeuw, de eeuwenoude vaarverbinding tussen IJlst en Sneek staat de unieke houtzaagmolen "de Rat" die nog volop in produktie is. Stammen die liggen te wateren, het geluid van de draaiende wieken, het gestamp van de op en neergaande zaagramen, de geur van versgezaagd hout, hier ervaart u nog het oude houtzagersambacht zoals dat al ruim 3 eeuwen in "De Rat" dagelijks wordt uitgevoerd.
The edges of the yawn, the ancient connection between sailing and Sneek IJlst is unique woodcutting "the Rat" who is still in production. Strains are to water, the sound of the rotating blades, the tramping of the rocking cutting windows, the smell of freshly sawn wood, here you still experience the old sawyer craft as more than 3 centuries in "The Rat" every day.

My dad and I went up to Fort Mountain State Park in Georgia, while visiting family for our annual get together. We were going up to the park to do some hiking and photo shooting, but the photos weren't that great from the park. It was definitely a neat place and worth seeing, though.
We passed this farm on the way back to my Great Uncle's house, and I had to stop. It was just too good to pass up.
Unfortunately, there were powerlines in the way, and the in-camera image just didn't represent the colors and beauty I saw before me. Hours of editing lie in wait for me.
Had I not needed to edit this so heavily, I never would have seen the two deer that are in this image. They're so tiny, even at full resolution, I didn't even see them when I actually shot this photo.
See below, in the comments, for the unedited version to compare to what you see here.

El principal responsable del proyecto de los telescopios "Magic", Florian Goebel, de 35 años y nacionalidad alemana, falleció el pasado miércoles, sobre las 23:30 horas, tras caer desde unos diez metros de altura, según informaron fuentes de la Guardia Civil y del Instituto de Astrofísica de Canarias (IAC).
Al parecer, la víctima se precipitó al suelo cuando supervisaba las tareas de puesta en marcha del instrumento de observación estelar "Magic-II", situado en el Observatorio del Roque de los Muchachos, en la isla de La Palma.
Hacia el citado observatorio se desplazó el subdirector del IAC, Carlos Martínez, así como los responsables, por parte de dicha institución científica, del proyecto "Magic".
Según explicó el IAC en un comunicado, Florian Goebel era doctor en Astrofísica e investigador del Max Planck Institut für Physik de Munich, y, en el momento del accidente, se encontraba ultimando los últimos detalles del telescopio.
"Magic-II"
La colaboración "Magic", una de las instituciones usuarias del Instituto de Astrofísica de Canarias, dispone de dos telescopios Cherenkov en el Observatorio del Roque de los Muchachos.
El telescopio "Magic-II" tiene previsto triplicar los resultados científicos obtenidos por su predecesor, el "Magic-I", en la investigación de los rayos cósmicos. Asimismo, dicho instrumento está situado a unos 2.200 metros de altitud sobre el nivel del mar.
A tenor de la información divulgada en la jornada de ayer por el IAC, la inauguración de dicho telescopio, prevista para el próximo 19 de septiembre, fue suspendida como consecuencia del trágico suceso.

“Ve lo dico un’altra volta: non c’è felicità nella vita. Questa è sempre stata la mia prospettiva: lo penso sin da quando ero un ragazzo.
Per me la vita è un viaggio da incubo, un’esperienza molto dolorosa e non sono il primo a dirlo. Penso anche a Nietzsche, Freud o Eugene O’Neill che sostenevano la stessa cosa. Il trucco è sapere affrontare la vita mentendo spudoratamente a se stessi. Perché se si finisce col guardarla con occhi obiettivi vi rendereste conto che è intollerabile.
La cosa bella di questa città è che il clima è grigio e le estati sono fredde, il che può essere davvero utile per creare una fotografia unica per il film. Ma me ne starei comodamente nella mia amata New York se potessi trovare i finanziamenti per le mie storie. Girare in Europa costa molto meno, solo per questo continuo a farlo.
Non ci sono attori con cui aspiro tanto a lavorare, be’ mi piacerebbe dirigere Cate Blanchett o Reese Witherspoon ma non ho ancora trovato un ruolo per loro. Dipende sempre dallo script e una volta che ho creato il personaggio penso a chi posso offrirlo. Con quest’ultima pellicola sono stato molto fortunato a trovarli tutti gli attori che volevo. E tutti erano disponibili.
Non recito perché non trovo un ruolo adatto a me. Sono troppo vecchio e molti dei ruoli nei film che ho fatto sono sempre quelli di un romantico che riesce a conquistare la sua donna. Adesso non immaginate la frustrazione che provo quando recito insieme a Scarlett Johansson ed è un uomo più giovane ad averla!
Se potessi invecchiare come Manoel De Oliveira ci metterei subito la firma. Ma la mia posizione sulla morte resta sempre quella: sono profondamente contrario. E in quanto alla vecchiaia non ve la consiglio affatto! Non è che si diventa più saggi, ma è tutto un precipitare di dolore in cui ti ritrovi a vedere e sentire sempre meno e scordarti le cose in fretta.
Datemi retta, meglio essere giovani e riuscire a conquistare la vostra donna."

Chances are, you’re probably familiar with the Cadillac Ranch in Amarillo, Texas, or if not, you have probably heard about it. But, unless you live near the Tampa, Fla.- area, you probably haven’t heard about the Airstream Ranch. Located off the I-4. Frank Bates’ (owner of Bates RV) pays homage to Airstreams.
Bates, a former Texan native, came up with this idea as a way to honor Airstream’s 75th birthday celebrated a couple of years earlier. He recalled reading an interview with Stanley Marsh, the creator of the Cadillac Ranch, who said his creation was a way pay respect to Cadillacs, which he referred to them as the premier automobile people drove as they explored America. Well, the Airstream to Bates is the premier RV that people used (and still do) to camp in across America. Using a backhoe and crane, he buried seven big ones and one little on to represent 75 years. copied

Douz es la puerta del desierto tunecino, está situada en el extremo contrario a Tozeur del lago salado de Chott El Jerid. Pese a la creciente presencia de todoterrenos y otras máquinas, aquí el rey sigue siendo el dromedario. Hay alrededor de catorce mil en la zona, aunque tan solo doscientos Meharis, reconocibles por su color blanco, su descomunal altura, su carácter soberbio y altivo pero tremendamente fiel a su dueño. Son sin duda los dromedarios más hermosos que existen y los protagonistas de las grandes carreras que se organizan en el desierto del norte de África, incluido el mítico maratón de Douz que se celebra en invierno durante el festival del Sahara o festival del Camello.
El festival, llamado el festival del camello , se inició en 1910, cuando Túnez estaba bajo dominio francés. En 1967 adquirió su identidad moderna de acuerdo a la voluntad de H. Bourguiba , primer presidente de la nueva República de Túnez, para convertirse en el festival más antiguo y más conocido del país. M'hammed Marzougui, dedicó su vida a hacer que la gente tome conciencia y apreciar el modo de vida nómada y las tradiciones, fue el principal responsable de la fundación del festival. Desde entonces, cada año, a finales de diciembre, durante cuatro días, miles de personas, la mayoría de todo Túnez y otros países Maghrebies, acuden a Douz. Después de la ceremonia de apertura, comienzan los principales eventos en el estadio H´naiech situado frente al desierto y rodeado de tiendas beduinas. Los maratones de camellos, las galopadas de caballos árabes montados por atrevidos jinetes, las peleas de dromedarios, la celebración de matrimonios beduinos o el sloughi (caza del conejo con perros del desierto) son las principales atracciones del festival. Por la noche, los grupos de países visitantes interpretan canciones y bailes y concursos de poesía.

I tried another attempt at the Brenizer Method, but this time thinking a little more about the relevant depth of field calculations, and you can get a better result with a slower long lens (this is 300mm @ ƒ/5.6) than with a short fast lens (e.g. 50mm @ ƒ/2).
That said, I think the ultimate lens would be one of those 300mm ƒ/2.8 beasts, with about 10 shots across to take you back to a 50mm field of view. Anyone got a spare 300mm ƒ/2.8 they no longer need?
This version took 89 images, all stitched together in Photoshop.
All still just an experiment for now...

El milano real (Milvus milvus) es una especie de ave accipitriforme de la familia Accipitridae. Es similar en aspecto al milano negro, del que se distingue por su cabeza de color gris plateado y su silueta. Los ejemplares que anidan en el norte de Europa se desplazan al sur para invernar; algunos de ellos atraviesan el estrecho de Gibraltar hasta llegar al norte de África. Su distribución llega hasta Canarias y las islas de Cabo Verde. La población de las Islas Baleares se encuentra desde hace poco clasificada como en peligro de extinción debido al uso de venenos. Características El milano real tiene una longitud de 60 a 65 centímetros, una envergadura de alas de casi dos metros (190 centímetros) y un peso que oscila, desde los 900 gramos a los 1.200 gramos de peso. Su cola tiene una forma muy ahorquillada. Se diferencia fácilmente del milano negro, que es totalmente oscuro y tiene la cola menos ahorquillada. Alimentación Caza aves y pequeños mamíferos, como liebres o ratas, también se alimenta de pájaros e invertebrados; incluso puede devorar carroña. Anidación Suele anidar en los árboles, donde confecciona un nido a base de ramas y hojas. La puesta consiste en un número que oscila, desde un solo huevo, hasta tres; tardarán en eclosionar unos treinta y cinco días aproximadamente. El macho suele reemplazar a la hembra en la incubación por pequeños periodos de tiempo, mientras ésta se alimenta.

Clouds moved in on Wednesday afternoon, making views of Crater Lake sparing, at best. I was a bit disappointed, as I really wanted to get another chance at a sunset shot from the north side of the lake. As I was driving back to camp, though, I came across this. With everyone else up on the rim looking at the lake, I got to enjoy this scene for 30 minutes or longer with not one other person around.

Here's another version of the PHP (for Prvi Hrvatski Pistolj - First Croatian Pistol), the MV-9, made in the early 1990's in Croatia. The MV's are often described as a love child of a Walther P38 and a Beretta 92, as it has features of both. The barrel locking system is the tilting wedge with a "push button" used by both the Beretta and the Walther. It has the Walther's exposed barrel and the Beretta's high capacity magazine. The MV-9 seen here is somewhat shorter than the MV-17, as the muzzle is almost flush with the front of the slide.
In spite of the fact that it's a first attempt and that there was a particularly nasty war going on at the time, the pistol is fairly well made. It has the checkerboard Croatian crest stamped on the top of the slide, just behind the exposed portion of the barrel.
This one shows some use as evidenced by dings, scratches and honest wear, compared to the MV17, which came to me in nearly pristine, unissued condition.
The MV pistols were made by the arsenal which later became HS Arms, manufacturer of the HS2000, sold in the U. S. as the Springfield Armory XD series.

Μνημείο του Αρχιμανδίτη Ιερώνυμου Μυριανθέα στο χωριό Καμινάρια, στο παλιό σχολείο της κοινότητας που τώρα χρησιμεύει ως ξενώνας.
Από
www.kaminaria.org/index.php?article=10
O Αρχιμανδρίτης Ιερώνυμος Mυριανθέας γεννήθηκε το 1838 στο χωριό Kαμινάρια, όπου και έζησε τα πρώτα χρόνια της ζωής του. Το 1851, σε ηλικία δεκατριών χρόνων, ορφανός και από τους δύο γονείς, μετέβη στα Ιεροσόλυμα, όπου τέθηκε κάτω από την προστασία του Μητροπολίτη Πέτρας Μελετίου Mαττέου, ο οποίος καταγόταν από τη Λεμίθου. Στα Ιεροσόλυμα, ο Ιερώνυμος εισήχθη αρχικά στην Aλληλοδιδακτική Σχολή του Πατριαρχείου και στη συνέχεια, το 1855, στη νεοϊδρυθείσα Θεολογική Σχολή του Σταυρού, από όπου αποφοίτησε το 1859. Το ίδιο έτος χειροτονήθηκε διάκονος και προσελήφθη στο προσωπικό της Σχολής, όπου δίδαξε διάφορα μαθήματα στις μικρότερες τάξεις. Στη συνέχεια συνέχισε τις σπουδές του στη Θεολογική Σχολή του Πανεπιστημίου Αθηνών (1862-1864) και στα πανεπιστήμια του Στρασβούργου, της Xαϊδελβέργης και της Bόννης (1864-1867), αποκτώντας μοναδική για την εποχή μόρφωση. Στα Ιεροσόλυμα επέστρεψε το 1867 και εργάστηκε ως καθηγητής και ακολούθως ως διευθυντής της Θεολογικής Σχολής του Σταυρού (1872-1874). Στο μεταξύ, το 1870, χειροτονήθηκε ιερομόναχος και αμέσως μετά αρχιμανδρίτης.
Κατά τη διάρκεια των σπουδών του και κατά την περίοδο της παραμονής του στα Ιεροσόλυμα, ο Ιερώνυμος εξέδωσε σε αυτοτελείς τόμους αρκετά συγγράμματα. H ευρύτητα των γνώσεων και η γλωσσομάθειά του - εκτός από ελληνικά μιλούσε αραβικά, γερμανικά, γαλλικά, αγγλικά, εβραϊκά ίσως και τουρκικά - συνέτειναν ώστε να μπορεί να παρακολουθεί τη διεθνή βιβλιογραφία και, με τα άρθρα και τα συγγράμματά του, να διαφωτίζει για πολλά θέματα τους συμπατριώτες του.
Είναι αξιοσημείωτο ότι μεγάλο μέρος του συγγραφικού του έργου επανεκδόθηκε κατά τη διάρκεια του 20ού αιώνα, ενώ το σύνολό του περιελήφθη σε ογκώδη τόμο, που εξέδωσε ο Μητροπολίτης Κένυας Μακάριος Tηλλυρίδης με τίτλο: «Έργα και Hμέραι Iερωνύμου Mυριανθέως», το 1998, από τις εκδόσεις του Κέντρου Μελετών Ιεράς Μονής Kύκκου.
H ευγένεια του χαρακτήρα του, σε συνδυασμό με την εκπαιδευτική και συγγραφική του δράση, συνέτειναν ώστε ο Ιερώνυμος να γίνει ευρύτατα γνωστός και να προταθεί ή και να εκλεγεί κατά καιρούς σε διάφορους αρχιερατικούς θρόνους, που, όμως, πάντοτε αποποιείτο για διάφορους λόγους. Αναφέρεται χαρακτηριστικά ότι το 1868, το 1871, το 1881, το 1883 και το 1891 προτάθηκε για τους μητροπολιτικούς θρόνους Κιτίου, Kυρηνείας, Κερκύρας, Πατρών και τον Πατριαρχικό θρόνο Αντιοχείας αντιστοίχως, υποψηφιότητες που όμως απέρριψε, όπως το ίδιο έπραξε και τα έτη 1880 και 1887, που εξελέγη στον μητροπολιτικό θρόνο Κυρήνειας και Κιτίου αντιστοίχως.
Τελικά, το 1874, ο Ιερώνυμος αποδέχθηκε πρόσκληση της ελληνικής κοινότητας του Λονδίνου και, αφού εγκαταστάθηκε στην αγγλική πρωτεύουσα, ανέλαβε καθήκοντα ιερατικού προϊσταμένου στον ναό του Σωτήρος. Ένα από τα πιο σημαντικά έργα του την περίοδο αυτή είναι η συμβολή του στην ανέγερση της εκκλησίας της Αγίας Σοφίας, που άρχισε το 1877 και ολοκληρώθηκε το 1879, και η οποία αποτελεί από τότε κέντρο πνευματικής αναφοράς των αποδήμων. Παράλληλα, ενίσχυσε τη λειτουργία του ελληνικού σχολείου της κοινότητας, στο οποίο δίδαξε και ο ίδιος, στηρίζοντας και ενδυναμώνοντας την ελληνορθόδοξη συνείδηση των παιδιών των ξενιτεμένων.
Κατά τη διάρκεια της παραμονής του στο Λονδίνο, ανέπτυξε αξιόλογο εθνικό έργο και βοήθησε τον Αρχιεπίσκοπο Κύπρου Σωφρόνιο, με τις προσωπικές του γνωριμίες και τις παραστάσεις του προς τον Άγγλο πρωθυπουργό Γλάδστωνα, για την εισαγωγή μεταρρυθμίσεων και την εξασφάλιση διαβεβαιώσεων ότι η Κύπρος δεν θα επανερχόταν μελλοντικά στην κυριαρχία της Οθωμανικής αυτοκρατορίας.
H αγάπη του προς την Κύπρο εκδηλώθηκε και με πολλούς άλλους τρόπους, όπως με τη χρηματοδότηση της ίδρυσης και λειτουργίας του πρώτου σχολείου της γενέτειράς του Kαμινάρια, το 1882. Σε αυτό φοιτούσαν επίσης, κατά ρητή εντολή του, και παιδιά από τα γειτονικά χωριά Τρεις Ελιές και Άγιος Δημήτριος. Παράλληλα, ο Iερώνυμος έλαβε πρόνοια για τη συντήρηση και τη συνέχιση της λειτουργίας της Σχολής και κατέθεσε στην Εθνική Τράπεζα της Ελλάδος το ποσό των 750 λιρών, ώστε να πληρώνεται από τους τόκους ο εκάστοτε διδάσκαλος. Αλλά και αργότερα, με τη διαθήκη του, κληροδότησε στη Σχολή άλλες 400 λίρες, ποσό το οποίο αξιοποιήθηκε στα μεταγενέστερα χρόνια, όπως το 1952 που έγινε η επέκταση της Σχολής, το 1963 που δημιουργήθηκε η «Iερωνύμειος Βιβλιοθήκη» και το 1995 που, ελλείψει μαθητών, μετετράπη σε Πολιτιστικό Κέντρο. Αξιοσημείωτο είναι ότι ο Iερώνυμος άφησε με διαθήκη του και το ποσό των 250 λιρών για τις ανάγκες του Παγκυπρίου Γυμνασίου, γεγονός που συνέτεινε ώστε να περιληφθεί ανάμεσα στους μεγάλους ευεργέτες των εκπαιδευτηρίων της Λευκωσίας.
Στο Λονδίνο ο Ιερώνυμος παρέμεινε μέχρι το 1886, οπότε, λόγω σοβαρών προβλημάτων υγείας και εξαιτίας κάποιου ατυχήματος, που του προκάλεσε εκτεταμένα εγκαύματα, υποχρεώθηκε να το εγκαταλείψει και να καταφύγει στη Γενεύη, πόλη με υγιεινότερο κλίμα. Την περίοδο αυτή πραγματοποίησε διάφορα ταξίδια σε ευρωπαϊκές χώρες, όπως στην Ισπανία, καρπός του οποίου είναι ένα εξαίρετο ταξιδιωτικό με τίτλο «Bραχεία και αυτοσχέδιος περιήγησις εν Ισπανία», που δημοσίευσε στο ελληνικό περιοδικό της Λειψίας «Έσπερος». Παρά τα πολλά προβλήματα υγείας που αντιμετώπιζε, ο Ιερώνυμος συνέχισε τις πνευματικές δραστηριότητές του μέχρι το 1898 που απεβίωσε, και αναδείχθηκε ένας από τους σημαντικότερους Κυπρίους λόγιους του 19ου αιώνα. Μετά τον θάνατό του, ομάδα συγγενών του μετέβη στη Γενεύη και μετέφερε τη σορό του στα Kαμινάρια, όπου ετάφη στο προαύλιο της «Iερωνυμείου Σχολής». Για την αξιόλογη δράση του, ο Ιερώνυμος τιμήθηκε από την ελληνική κυβέρνηση πρώτα με τον αργυρό (1878) και στη συνέχεια με τον χρυσό σταυρό του Σωτήρος (1885), όπως επίσης και από τη ρωσική κυβέρνηση με το παράσημο της Αγίας Άννας. Εξάλλου, το Πανεπιστήμιο του Kέιμπριτζ, εκτιμώντας το συγγραφικό και επιστημονικό του έργο, τον ανακήρυξε διδάκτορα της θεολογίας (1886), ενώ παρόμοια τιμητική διάκριση του απενεμήθη και από το Πανεπιστήμιο της Oξφόρδης.
Monument of the reverand Archimandrite Ieronymos Myriantheas at the village Kaminaria, in Cyprus.
He was born in 1838 in the village of Kaminaria and was one of the greatest Cypriots of the 19th century. He studied courses on Theology at the universities of Athens, Strasbourg, Haidelberg and Bonn gaining academic education unique for those times. He has written a lot of articles and studies. In 1874 he whent and stayed in London accepting to support the Greek community of London.

The Londonderry & Lough Swilly’s Railway 49 mile Burtonport extension from Letterkenny was built to serve the excellent harbour in Burtonport and as a government attempt to alleviate the poverty in north Donegal. Opening for traffic in 1909, the line ran through the remote and difficult terrain of north Donegal often skirting towns it was meant to serve by miles in a effort to save on the cost of construction. The line was the subject of two enquiries over its safety and operation. The Derry Chamber of Commerce noting “defective construction and inadequate and unsuitable equipment” as a cause of the lines many ills. Despite this the line managed to survive until 1947, the Burtonport - Gweedore section earlier closing in June 1940. The station was demolished early in 2003.

I don't know if I can yell any louder,
How many times have I kicked you out of here?
Or said something insulting?
I can be so mean when I wanna be,
I am capable of really anything,
I can cut you into pieces,
When my heart is broken.
Please don't leave me
I always say how I don't need you
But it's always gonna come right back to this
Please don't leave me
How did I become so obnoxious,
What is it with you that makes me act like this,
I've never been this nasty,
Can't you tell that this is all just a contest?
The one that wins will be the one that hits the hardest,
But baby I don't mean it,
I mean it, I promise
Please don't leave me
I always say how I don't need you
But it's always gonna come right back to this
Please don't leave me
I forgot to say out loud,
How beautiful you really are to me,
I can't be without,
You're my perfect little punching bag,
And I need you
I'm sorry.

Chichen Itza (pronounced /tʃiːˈtʃɛn iːˈtsɑː/; from Yucatec Maya: Chi'ch'èen Ìitsha', "At the mouth of the well of the Itza") is a large pre-Columbian archaeological site built by the Maya civilization located in the northern center of the Yucatán Peninsula, in the Yucatán state, present-day Mexico.
Chichen Itza was a major regional focal point in the northern Maya lowlands from the Late Classic through the Terminal Classic and into the early portion of the Early Postclassic period. The site exhibits a multitude of architectural styles, from what is called “Mexicanized” and reminiscent of styles seen in central Mexico to the Puuc style found among the Puuc Maya of the northern lowlands. The presence of central Mexican styles was once thought to have been representative of direct migration or even conquest from central Mexico, but most contemporary interpretations view the presence of these non-Maya styles more as the result of cultural diffusion.
The ruins of Chichen Itza are federal property, and the site’s stewardship is maintained by Mexico’s Instituto Nacional de Antropología e Historia (National Institute of Anthropology and History, INAH). The land under the monuments, however, is privately-owned by the Barbachano family.
The Maya name "Chich'en Itza" means "At the mouth of the well of the Itza." This derives from chi', meaning "mouth" or "edge", and ch'e'en, meaning "well." Itzá is the name of an ethnic-lineage group that gained political and economic dominance of the northern peninsula. The name is believed to derive from the Maya itz, meaning "magic," and (h)á, meaning "water." Itzá in Spanish is often translated as "Brujas del Agua (Witches of Water)" but a more precise translation would be Magicians of Water.
The name is often represented as Chichén Itzá in Spanish and when translated into other languages from Spanish to show that both parts of the name are stressed on their final syllables. Other references prefer to employ a more rigorous orthography in which the word is written according to Maya language, using Chich'en Itzá (pronounced [tʃitʃʼen itsáʔ]. This form preserves the phonemic distinction between ch' and ch, since the base word ch'e'en (which, however, does have a neutral tone vowel "e" in Maya and is not accented or stressed in Maya) begins with a glottalized affricate. The word "Itzá'" has a high rise final "a" that is followed by a glottal stop (indicated by the apostrophe).
There is evidence in the Chilam Balam books that there was another, earlier name for this city prior to the arrival of the Itza hegemony in northern Yucatán. This name is difficult to define because of the absence of a single standard of orthography, but it is represented variously as Uuc Yabnal, Uuc Hab Nal, or Uc Abnal. While most sources agree the first word means seven, there is considerable debate as to the correct translation of the rest. Among the translations suggested are “Seven Bushes,” “Seven Great Houses,” or “Seven Lines of Abnal.”
In NYC's Flushing Chinese community . . . there are large groups of Falun Gong members who've joined with others to protest their harassment and persecution from those loyal to Mainland China . . .There have been many heated arguments . . . even death threats to those who protest . . . and the police have an ongoing effort to maintain the peace on Flushing streets . . . The protests are a daily event to gain worldwide and community support and awareness of their plight . . . and on some weekends there are sometimes thousands of Chinese on the streets to voice their distress.

Langs de richting Sevanpas (2114m) komt men aan het standbeeld van een jonge Armeense vrouw. Hier wordt het Armeense kloostereiland Aghtamar in het Van-meer in Turkije in herinnering gebracht door het uitbeelden van de daaraan verbonden legende:
Her verhaal van onze gids:
Een jongeman werd verliefd op de mooie Tamar die woonde op het Van-meer. Om haar geliefde de weg naar het meer te wijzen, ontstak de jonge vrouw iedere avond een vuurke op de oever van het meer. Op zekere avond werd het vuur gedoofd door jaloerse jongelingen. De verliefde jongeling verloor zijn oriëntatie en verdronk terwijl hij uitriep "Ach Tamar", vandaar de naam van het eiland: Ahgtamar
Zie ook:
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Akdamar_Island
Een gelijkaardig verhaal:
Tamar, de vrouwe van het meer, loodste reizigers veilig over het meer met haar fakkel. Ze was echter niet in staat, haar geliefde, die haar elke dag bezocht, van de verdrinkingsdood te redden toen zijn boot tijdens een storm kapseisde.. Een jaloerse man had rondom het meer vuren aangelegd, waardoor hij ook de weg kwijt was.. Terwijl hij verdronk riep hij de woorden Ach Tamar. Tamar door het verdriet overmand, stierf kort hierna. Sinds die tijd heet het eiland Aghtamar.

and a nice poem:
en een heel mooi gedicht van de 2 verliefde kinderen:
Shot for the June 12 Strobist Sundays theme " Reflection Fill Light ".
Strobist info:
Just only 1 YN 460II 1/4 power from behind aim at the subject YN 560 and the escaped light reflected by a curve bended white foam fallen on the subject again. And all subjects are standing on a base of 5 colors papers.
Those photoshop skillful may say it's easily to get the effect in photoshop. But before the photoshop was invented. All advertising film photographers are shooting in this way too !
Althought this Speedlite YN 560 is a copy cat from Canon EX580, but I am glad of owning it for just USD60 from Amazon, and I love it's fractional power output like 1/128 that my old stuffs don't have !
I was taking pictures in the city of ghent (Belgium) and inspite of my many prayers, it was downpouring.I had no umbrella with me, was getting exhausted from wandering the streets in the rain and needed a rest and get myself dry.I stopped by this cafe (brasserie) near the "Korenmarkt", went in and was pleasantly surprised by the interior and the decoration and lighting used in the café.So I had a cup of coffee, regained my spirits and asked the friendly barmaid if she'd allow me to shoot some photos of the interior.You can see for yourself that the atmosphere and the lighting just scream to be photographed.I also asked the lady behind the bar where I could buy a cheap umbrella to at least keep my camera dry.
Langania village, Tantanua dance (mask dance) and the Sing-sing of the malagan people.
Sing-sing is a gathering of a few tribes or villages in Papua New Guinea. People arrive to show their distinct culture, dance and music. The aim of these gatherings is to peacefully share traditions. Villagers paint and decorate themselves for sing-sings.

Malagan ceremonies are the most large-scale and famous of the many events that take place within the malagan culture. They take place irregularly, and are typically large and complex events, taking several days, and requiring months or years of preparation.
While a malagan ceremony is always held in the name of one or more people who have died in recent years, it is not at all merely a mortuary rite. Many other interactions take place within the overall event, including announcements, repayment of debts, recognition of obligations, resolution of disputes, and many other customary activities.
Malagan carvings
Malagan carvings, now world-famous, are the wooden carvings which are created for use in malagan ceremonies. Traditionally these were burnt at the conclusion of the event; in modern times most are now retained, as the carving tradition is now only known by a few.

I went grocery shopping yesterday and found this tree decorated with black birds. I took the picture with iPhone but it was a rather poor quality... so this is an Alien Skin painting in heavy pastel.
Sorry my friends for my long absence but between taking care of my mom's broken foot and also starting my new photography company--setting up a new website with flash... will give link once it exists--I have limited time resources... only 24 hours in a day. =)
I will visit your pictures as often as I can.
Kisses and hugs to everyone!!
Paris Las Vegas is a hotel and casino located on the Las Vegas Strip in Nevada, that is owned and operated by Caesars Entertainment Corp.. As its name suggests, its theme is the city of Paris in France; it includes a half scale, 541-foot-tall replica of the Eiffel Tower, a sign in the shape of the Montgolfier balloon, a two-thirds size Arc de Triomphe, a replica of La Fontaine des Mers, and a 1,200-seat theatre called Le Théâtre des Arts. The front of the hotel suggests the Paris Opera House and the Louvre.

************************
Joseph-Michel Montgolfier (26 August 1740 – 26 June 1810) and Jacques-Étienne Montgolfier (6 January 1745 – 2 August 1799) were the inventors of the montgolfière-style hot air balloon, globe aérostatique. The brothers succeeded in launching the first manned ascent, carrying Étienne into the sky. Later, in December 1783, in recognition of their achievement, their father Pierre was elevated to the nobility and the hereditary appellation of de Montgolfier by King Louis XVI of France.
