Mercer County September 9/11 Memorial
"The Event
On September 11, 2001, America suffered an assault on its home soil that resulted in almost 3,000 dead and countless others physically and emotionally wounded. The victims were nationals of more than 70 countries, making this tragedy global in impact. Dedicated on this, the 11 Day of September, 2011 on the 10th Anniversary of September 11, this memorial is a lasting tribute to the heroes who perished.
Lest we forget.
Mercer County Executive Brian M. Hughes and the Mercer County Board of Chosen Freeholders"
"The Sculpture
The Twin Towers of the World Trade Center in New York City are an icon of the events of September 11, 2001, and a constant reminder of the human loss there, at the Pentagon in Washington D.C. and in Shanksville, Pennsylvania. This monument displays a segment of a steel girder salvaged from the World Trade Center site in the aftermath of the attack. The steel cable was part of a World Trade Center elevator and was acquired only a few months before tragedy struck. They are displayed here in a simple setting to keep fresh in our memories the stark reality of September 11th and to encourage reflection on the events of that day and their enduring consequences."

In the last year I have been trying to improve my life physically after a pair of back surgeries…honestly, I have always been trying, but within this last year I have actually been doing it by hiking, biking and kayaking. On the first of this year I was planning a trip to the UP from Oregon, OH, just east of Toledo, which would take me around Lake Michigan. I am a geocacher so I plan every trip with the goal of collecting a few geocaches in different states and at random geological or historic sites. I was zooming in on the websites map north of the Mackinac area and I found a string of caches titled “NCT - (all kinds of things)” making a big weird S through Hiawatha National Forest. In the geocache description there is an elaborate but brief explanation of the NCT. Needless to say at this point I was floored that I had never heard of the North Country Trail. Around here the AT, PCT and CDT are public knowledge but how did I not know about the NCT which runs only 30 some odd miles away from my house and passes through all the places I love to visit. Hours of internet reading and book ordering later I had registered for the hike 100 challenge and adjusted my spring and summer trips to include a number of out and back hikes along the trail. In the first few months of the year I made the long round trip drive to do some short hikes along the historic Erie Canal, Wabash/Cannonball trail, through Maumee State Forrest and of course the beautiful Oak Openings Metro Park and then came our first planned trip. My kids and I (they are 10, 6 & 4) have a goal to visit all 74 Ohio state parks in the next two years. My youngest has Cerebral Palsy and does not walk yet so he gets to ride along for all of the hikes in a pack that helps him build his core muscle strength and keep his legs stretched, but most of all it lets him see and experience the world. So while in North East Ohio visiting parks we went a little further to Allegheny National Forest to collect some Pennsylvania and New York geocaches as well as to hike a few NCT miles. On one hike we went up from PA to the NY border. That was an 847’ elevation gain in just over a mile, a great challenge for the kids and beautiful hike. Later in the same trip we found ourselves at the Ohio / Pennsylvania border heading up into the state game lands. Another beautiful hike out (up) and back. [See if you can tell what the focus becomes for my hike 100 challenge - side goal]. I used “The North Country Trail” book by Ron Strickland to find some cool destinations and we decided to head over to Zoar, OH for a history lesson and lunch. That was a terrific stop and my hats off to Ron for the excellent guide, it led us to some fine sections of the trail already. Another interesting landmark was achieved on that short hike; it is the Eastern confluence of the NCT and the Buckeye Trail System. In the last month or so I made the trek out to my closest points of the trail and did a few miles here and there. Oak Openings is about as beautiful and “challenging” as it gets in the Great Black Swamp region where construction levels are more crooked than our skyline. I did however complete a little section hike where the Buckeye Trail splits off of the NCT (or joins depending on which way you go) at the Western end in Liberty Center, OH, so that landmark was completed. It is now July and my original vacation trip plans were getting finalized. Looking back I had already logged miles in three of the seven states, with both border crossings; why not add 12 or so hours to my trip to collect all the states and all the crossings? Fast forward to July 26th, that is today for me, and I will share the tale of a 2,300 mile road trip week that led me not only around the lake but to the conclusion of my hike 100 challenge. On a Monday morning at 0330 I left work in a rain storm with a final destination of the Historic Fort Abercrombie in North Dakota. The rain relented early enough that I was able to stop quickly and walk across the OH/MI border without too much trouble. As any fellow geocacher will understand, I could have delayed my trip exponentially by caching everywhere so I limited myself to caches close to the borders, highlight earth caches and those all-important state souvenirs. With only one side trip at the end across the South Dakota border I made it to ND as the sun was setting and found the trail. I set off for an out n’ back from the fort to Kent, MN across the beautiful Red River. It is interesting to note that just to the north in MN there is a pair of high water marks from 1897 and 1997 that are only made more ominous when arriving in Kent to find a nice memorial from the 1997 event. I had a nice local beverage at the pub before walking back and setting up camp in the state park to enjoy my sleep. As the sun rose over the fort the next morning I set out for Lake Itasca and the headwaters of the Mississippi. While driving along Rt. 34 I stopped at the Hubble Pond trail crossing, I had to, it is a very well maintained trailhead with beautiful signage and information. I was really impressed, thank you. I did not spend as much time on the NCT at Itasca as I did at the actual headwaters (only about half a mile) but I will say that the pure energy of the people and atmosphere in that park was so refreshing, like we were all in on some simple but profound secret that was improving our lives, it was awesome to be there. I was trying to make it into Ottawa National Forrest in the UP to visit my Uncle and Cousin that I have not seen in 15 years by the evening so my MN/WI border crossing hike was quick and uneventful. The WI/MI border proved to be more difficult as just a few weeks ago the area received a rainfall…er, deluge really, of 12-14” in less than two hours. There were still a large number of washed out roads and detours but I eventually made it down to the Montreal River, parked and hiked across my sixth and final NCT border. Now all I had to do was put on some serious miles to wrap this up, Pictured Rocks, here I come! Before I set out in the Pictured Rocks NF I stopped in Au Train for a loaded test hike. I parked at the river and headed west but it felt more up than out. There is something weird and beautiful about the Hiwatha National Forest and Au Train Region, somehow when I turned around I was still going up to get back to my truck. I know that is not physically possible but I could not convince my legs otherwise. I know you long hikers are giggling at me but hey, that was a tough 1.8 miles. The only thing I had set up in advance was my Altran ride from Munising Falls to Grand Sable for 1230 that afternoon; this was almost a major mistake. As a sidebar from my story I strongly recommend anyone planning a trip through or to Pictured Rocks to call more than 30 days (it used to be 14) ahead to reserve your campsites and obtain your permit. I was able to get my back country camping permit on the first come basis but it meant in the next three days I was hiking 7, 14 & 21+ miles respectively based on available camping sites. I would rather have finished sooner on the third day but that was it. So, permit in hand I offload the pack and gear ready for transportation. About halfway to Grand Sable I realized my hiking poles were in the bed of my truck tucked under my kayak. Ugh. Second bit of advice is that a written list would have been better. I was able to use a pole that that had been left on the Altran by someone two weeks prior and offered by the driver. I am not a fan of single sticking it but that was 50% better than nothing, thank you trail angles, I hope I deserved it. At the trail head visitor center I came upon a very adventurous soul who on his first ever experience backpacking had made it there along the NCT from Tahquamenon Falls, and found himself in the same dilemma I was in an hour earlier without reservations for the next 42.4 miles. He ended up with the same itinerary as I had so we buddied up to keep an eye on each other through the next three days. I will save the details of my Pictured Rocks experience as my own but share the highlights. “Awe”, as in awe inspiring, or awe-some is really the only English language word to describe it as a whole. It makes me wonder if founders in Michigan gave names like Au Sable, Au Train or Point Aux Barques with that in mind while doling out city names. In Pictured Rocks the views are amazing, the hikes are challenging, the people are few (in the eastern two thirds) but quality, the geography is top notch, the thunderstorms are violent, the history is ever present, the flies are legendary and the water is scarce. Okay, the last one needs explaining. Along with leaving my sticks I left my iodine tabs, and filters break. Tap water is scarce; lake, river and stream water is plentiful, plan accordingly. This year PRNP is also having a 50 and 100 mile hike challenge so I kept track of the camp and water hikes and ended up getting 50.2 total miles during the three days in the park, another challenge met. But most important is that just as my feet and muscles were really starting to scream at me south of Sand Point I achieved the NCT 100 mile benchmark! In the next few days as my muscles recovered I visited NCT sites at Tahquamenon Falls, St. Ignace, where the trail crosses M 123 (near the geocache that started it all) and the last stop on my way home yesterday was at Lowell, MI to poke my head in at the headquarters, visit a great cast and crew, and pass along my thanks for everything while collecting my patch and picking up souvenirs for the kids. All told in 28 different hikes at 25 different locations I recorded 100.8 unique miles along 108.1 total miles in all 7 states to include all 6 border crossings with 5 different people and the kids were along for 19.8 miles. The only thing left now is the East and West Terminus…oh…and those other 4,500 miles.
In the last year I have been trying to improve my life physically after a pair of back surgeries…honestly, I have always been trying, but within this last year I have actually been doing it by hiking, biking and kayaking. On the first of this year I was planning a trip to the UP from Oregon, OH, just east of Toledo, which would take me around Lake Michigan.

As any fellow geocacher will understand, I could have delayed my trip exponentially by caching everywhere so I limited myself to caches close to the borders, highlight earth caches and those all-important state souvenirs. With only one side trip at the end across the South Dakota border I made it to ND as the sun was setting and found the trail. I set off for an out n’ back from the fort to Kent, MN across the beautiful Red River. It is interesting to note that just to the north in MN there is a pair of high water marks from 1897 and 1997 that are only made more ominous when arriving in Kent to find a nice memorial from the 1997 event. I had a nice local beverage at the pub before walking back and setting up camp in the state park to enjoy my sleep. As the sun rose over the fort the next morning I set out for Lake Itasca and the headwaters of the Mississippi. While driving along Rt. 34 I stopped at the Hubble Pond trail crossing, I had to, it is a very well maintained trailhead with beautiful signage and information. I was really impressed, thank you. I did not spend as much time on the NCT at Itasca as I did at the actual headwaters (only about half a mile) but I will say that the pure energy of the people and atmosphere in that park was so refreshing, like we were all in on some simple but profound secret that was improving our lives, it was awesome to be there. I was trying to make it into Ottawa National Forrest in the UP to visit my Uncle and Cousin that I have not seen in 15 years by the evening so my MN/WI border crossing hike was quick and uneventful. The WI/MI border proved to be more difficult as just a few weeks ago the area received a rainfall…er, deluge really, of 12-14” in less than two hours. There were still a large number of washed out roads and detours but I eventually made it down to the Montreal River, parked and hiked across my sixth and final NCT border. Now all I had to do was put on some serious miles to wrap this up, Pictured Rocks, here I come! Before I set out in the Pictured Rocks NF I stopped in Au Train for a loaded test hike. I parked at the river and headed west but it felt more up than out. There is something weird and beautiful about the Hiwatha National Forest and Au Train Region, somehow when I turned around I was still going up to get back to my truck. I know that is not physically possible but I could not convince my legs otherwise. I know you long hikers are giggling at me but hey, that was a tough 1.8 miles. The only thing I had set up in advance was my Altran ride from Munising Falls to Grand Sable for 1230 that afternoon; this was almost a major mistake. As a sidebar from my story I strongly recommend anyone planning a trip through or to Pictured Rocks to call more than 30 days (it used to be 14) ahead to reserve your campsites and obtain your permit. I was able to get my back country camping permit on the first come basis but it meant in the next three days I was hiking 7, 14 & 21+ miles respectively based on available camping sites. I would rather have finished sooner on the third day but that was it. So, permit in hand I offload the pack and gear ready for transportation. About halfway to Grand Sable I realized my hiking poles were in the bed of my truck tucked under my kayak. Ugh. Second bit of advice is that a written list would have been better. I was able to use a pole that that had been left on the Altran by someone two weeks prior and offered by the driver. I am not a fan of single sticking it but that was 50% better than nothing, thank you trail angles, I hope I deserved it. At the trail head visitor center I came upon a very adventurous soul who on his first ever experience backpacking had made it there along the NCT from Tahquamenon Falls, and found himself in the same dilemma I was in an hour earlier without reservations for the next 42.4 miles. He ended up with the same itinerary as I had so we buddied up to keep an eye on each other through the next three days. I will save the details of my Pictured Rocks experience as my own but share the highlights. “Awe”, as in awe inspiring, or awe-some is really the only English language word to describe it as a whole. It makes me wonder if founders in Michigan gave names like Au Sable, Au Train or Point Aux Barques with that in mind while doling out city names. In Pictured Rocks the views are amazing, the hikes are challenging, the people are few (in the eastern two thirds) but quality, the geography is top notch, the thunderstorms are violent, the history is ever present, the flies are legendary and the water is scarce. Okay, the last one needs explaining. Along with leaving my sticks I left my iodine tabs, and filters break. Tap water is scarce; lake, river and stream water is plentiful, plan accordingly. This year PRNP is also having a 50 and 100 mile hike challenge so I kept track of the camp and water hikes and ended up getting 50.2 total miles during the three days in the park, another challenge met. But most important is that just as my feet and muscles were really starting to scream at me south of Sand Point I achieved the NCT 100 mile benchmark! In the next few days as my muscles recovered I visited NCT sites at Tahquamenon Falls, St. Ignace, where the trail crosses M 123 (near the geocache that started it all) and the last stop on my way home yesterday was at Lowell, MI to poke my head in at the headquarters, visit a great cast and crew, and pass along my thanks for everything while collecting my patch and picking up souvenirs for the kids. All told in 28 different hikes at 25 different locations I recorded 100.8 unique miles along 108.1 total miles in all 7 states to include all 6 border crossings with 5 different people and the kids were along for 19.8 miles. The only thing left now is the East and West Terminus…oh…and those other 4,500 miles.
A Cry For Death
Written & re-told by Daniel Jones
Video link here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=rNBqIi4wLak
A very long time ago, when the ancient forests were young and vibrant, there lived two men in a quiet village. The first of them, he will be called Davin, was one with a gentile heart and was quite the reader. He had been known to read any book he could get his hands on. Honestly, it was one of the few things he could physically do. See, Davin, since birth, was constantly ill; which debilitated him to a state of near death. He had been bedridden all of his life and was often accused of being a hypochondriac. To see him out of his bed without coughing, wheezing or sneezing would indeed be a rare occasion. During these few times, he would feel spirited and quite jovial and often thought perhaps he had finally overcome his disease. Of course, his positivity would only last until the next day, when his fits would start up all over again and he'd solemnly return to his bed. He spent most of his days shut up within his late parents’ estate and almost never went outside. Being shut in from the world meant he did not have many friends and lived a rather reclusive life; having only an old caretaker, who'd visit every morning, to bathe him and bring food, medicine and, of course, books. For nearly thirty years, he lay in that bed, hacking and whooping.
The other man, he will be called Neil, was a most handsome and fit man; one of the strongest in town. The ladies adored him and the men admired him, even if they were rather jealous of his fortunate appearance. Never had he known a sick day in his life, thus, his mother always prided herself claiming to have the healthiest child a mother could have. Neil himself was lost in his own glory and would often boast about how lucky he was to be so gifted in mind, body and soul. He could often be found drinking and frolicking in the town pub until he would stagger out the doors to his home on the other side of the village. However he was also prone to mischief, such as stealing chickens and blaming it on foxes or throwing mud on freshly cleaned cloth. He was quite clever; at least enough to keep himself out of trouble and only spoke of his tricks to a very select few who he had sworn to secrecy. Oh, he was a sly one. He had a sharp tongue and a good wit which helped him deny any fault. He would often pass the ailing Davin's window on his way home from a few rounds of ol' Benny's Whiskey. He always declared that he would surely outlive poor Davin, who could very easily pass away at a moment’s notice.
One late evening, as an imbibed Neil found himself stumbling by Davin's window, he heard him doing his nightly routine of panting, heaving and gagging. Neil had always found it somewhat of a nuisance and got it into his head to have some fun with the lame man. There was a familiar glimmer in his eye and it was clear he was up to no good. He called through the window, "Hark, brother Davin! You have been feverish these thirty some years. Why don't you just call out for death so that he can end it all? Perhaps it would simply be better if you were dead!"
Weakly, and almost a whisper, Davin cried out, "I have tried calling out to death many times before, but he cannot hear me. I am too weak."
"Oh, but my dear brother," Neil sneered, a devilish smile creeping across his face. "Tonight is All Hallows Eve! And death is lurking the wood and the field in search of a soul to send to bliss or woe. I'm sure if you cry out loud enough he most certainly will hear you."
Persuaded, Davin whimpered, "Death... O death, give me mercy and take this weary soul." Neil indeed found it greatly amusing to hear Davin's feeble and vain attempt to end his life.
"Try, do try again, dear fellow. I do not think even the mice in your walls could not hear you," he taunted.
Once more, the fragile man groaned, slightly less audible and more pitiful than the previous attempt. "Death...O death, I beg of you. Release me from my earthly bonds from which I suffer so." For a moment, the two stayed in utter silence but neither angel nor devil did come. Neil was now heavily enjoying his playful torment.
Neil mocked his second attempt by raising his palm to his ear and exclaimed, "Hail! A whisper I hear! Perhaps he hath heard you this time, though he suspects perhaps it is merely the wind, I fear. I implore try, try thrice more! As loud as you can! Surely then Hades will hear your plea!"
With great agony, Davin did tried a third time. He raised his voice as loud as he could muster. His throat ached and burned. His eyes watered and his lips were dry. He croaked, "Death! O sweet death! Come I implore! I implore! O agent of fame or foul I pray, no more! No more!" Alas despite his efforts, only a pathetic utterance could be heard from the window. Davin finished his summons by throwing a ghastly fit of coughs into his kerchief. Then the two again stayed still but no sweet phantom did follow. Neil was having trouble suppressing his glee and even a hearty snicker slipped through his lips.
"Alas, my friend but Death has ventured on. Truly you are too weak to call for death and even the banshees will pass your door and never wail for you." Then he thought of an idea to fuel his fancy. This was no doubt his greatest scheme and, oh, a tale it would be. "However, perhaps if I called him, he would come to you hence and finally take you from this cruel purgatory you have endured." His smile was as wide as the moon above, "Yea, for you pure and brotherly soul, I will call forth your salvation."
Davin, grateful for no longer having to strain, quietly thanked Neil for his offer, suspecting him little of his fiendish game and said, "You are a dear friend and comrade Neil. It is no wonder you have been blessed in this life with more praise than St. Paul himself. I shall put in a merry word with the angels above upon my release."
"Indeed anything for a one so needy. As for myself, no glory shall I partake. It is duty that is my calling. For if a man hath no love in his heart for his brothers, he is not worthy of being a man at all." Neil, now rich with hilarity gave a mighty cackle. He planted himself into a stance so strong he looked as if he could hold a crumbling tower. He brought up both hands and sang with a thundering clamor out into the forest beyond. His voice bellowed far across the land and it seemed even ol' Nick would be able to hear his voice from the lowest of pits.
"Death! O Death! Come and take this soul that cries to you in the night from afar! Take it thus far away from here so that it will be seen no more!" At that moment without pause, Neil heard a jostle coming from the thicket ahead. Before him stood a pale, cloaked figure with white, cloudy eyes. It came forth and beckoned him with a long, skinny hand. The air felt foul and brought with it an even fouler odor which tickled his nose. It spoke with a voice as cold as winter and moaned like a storm wind.
"Come have I to take the one that beckons me," he said with icy breath. Neil was stunned to say the least. He had not expected the spirit to appear. Maintaining his composure, he pointed to the window.
"He- he lies yonder in his bedchamber within. He hath been calling you many times this late evening."
"I have not heard him," quoth the fiend.
"Indeed, hence I called you forth in his stead," Neil said assuredly. His brow began to moisten with cold dew. No more, could he hear the wind rustling in neither the trees nor the creatures of the wood.
"Indeed, however STILL come have I for the one that beckons me," quoth the wraith as he raised a single, brown and rotted finger and pointed in Neil's direction. In a moment of sobered clarity, Neil's eyes widened. A dense fog crawled across the earth and the stars went out one by one. Neil pressed himself against the boards of Davin's homestead and took in one last breath as the shadowy creature approached him.
Davin, still breathless, struggled to keep his head lifted to see through the window. He could now only see Neil, whom despite his apparent strength, was being dragged away wailing and screaming into the abysmal forest like an irritable child. Despite being chilled to his core, for a moment, Davin smiled and gave a weak chuckle as he saw the irony of the affair that transpired and saluted Death on his sense of humor. And yet, pray did he, for the poor soul of Neil.
After that evening, Davin made a miraculous recovery and was restored to his full vitality. Folk in the village always said he looked unusually able and firm among the other men, but he always remained kind and polite to everyone he encountered. Now that his strength had returned, he looked to make good use of it. He would tutor the children in their morning readings, work in the fields at dusk and entertain in the tavern upon nightfall. On late nights he would entertain them by telling the people of the town songs and poems and the fantastic ventures he read in his books. But the town favorite story of them all was always the haunting story of Neil's fall from grace. But when All Hallows Eve would come around, Davin's demeanor would change. He would continue to tell his stories, but would always keep that particular story to himself with solemn look on his face.
"Never shall I tell the tale on this particular night," He would say. "Already I have called for death three times in my life on All Hallows Eve. I dare not try it a fourth for fear I shall suffer an ill fate." For ten, long and happy years, Davin stayed in the village; loving and being loved by all. But upon the tenth year to the day he recovered from his dreadful ailment, ten whole years after Neil was taken from this world; Davin disappeared without a trace. All but a few of his belongings remained within his estate. Some say he called for death one more time. Some folk claimed he was dragged away shrieking into the night after he foolishly recounted his tale on All Hallows Eve. Others declare he embraced the hooded specter willingly and you can still see the two of them walking through the wood at night. And yet even some believe he simply left the town to do work elsewhere. But all these rumors end the same. Neither Neil nor Davin were ever seen in the town again.

This is part historical, part geographic reality, and a huge dose of alternative theory, please bear with me, I'm an amateur researcher, non academic.
First of all, I am sure most people understand there was an ancient Northeast LAND Passage, from Europe to Canada and the Western Hemisphere.
As a consequence, I propose that humans could physically walk across the North Atlantic, 50,000, 10,000 years ago, possibly 1500 years ago, except for very narrow water channels needing a boat. Worst case, boats could navigate close to land for the same 3500 miles from France, England, Norway, Scotland, Ireland, Faroe Islands, Iceland, Greenland, and onto Labrador.
However, I believe even to the time of the Classic Age of Greece, there was a land passage 99% of the way from France to Labrador in Canada, that today is no more than 2000 feet, 593 meters deep in any location. Most locations shown are less than 300 feet deep.
This is what I am highlighting, with the depth chart in meters, and I think it might shed some light on how the Templars, and possibly the Sinclairs were alleged to have travelled to the Western Hemisphere many times. This would include travels to Nova Scotia, and to the Valley of Mexico. In fact, the Aztec legends have their Quetzalcoatl white men, "with hair the color of the sun"-blonde, and some say white robes with red crosses on them, showing up in 1325 and organizing this minor tribe into the controlling power of the whole Valley.
I am telling the Pictish websites of the exact synergies between the Picts, the Egyptian Pekhats, and the North American Pequots, Massapequas, Chesapeakes, Chippewas, etc. It is like the Pictish Scottish never left the full expanse of the North Atlantic, paving the way for modern Templar and European diffusion. Even the mystery X-Haplotype DNA found in Northern Europe is also confirmed to be found among the Chippewa of Northern Quebec. Chippewa, Chi-pequa, the Picts!
I have mentioned before, how "Greenland" was probably named after the ancient Irish Sun God, "Gryan", or how Irish Field Hockey is an exact duplicate of the Canadian "Hockey", named after the ancient Egyptian Goddess of Fishermen and Fowlers, "Heqa". And I have mentioned the amazing Inuit photos taken in the 1800s, of obviously caucasian Inuit indigenous tribes of the Greenland, Labrador area, displayed on Flickr...
www.flickr.com/photos/nationalmaritimemuseum/2843692066/i...
And a remarkable second picture of Inuit caucasian looking children... they look like the younger version of the Rolling Stones, The Who, and Led Zep! Am I right or wrong?

Of course, the other side of the world, the area of Alaska/Siberia has today a very close 60 mile strait separating Eastern and Western Hemispheres, with extremely shallow 140 feet deep ocean depths in between. That is the area of the celebrated "Land Bridge" we have all learned about in school.
This information of a North Atlantic Ocean land bridge is not new, and has been published many times over the last 500 years. I have shown in the previous Athena and Disc Thrower images, that the North Atlantic areas and ocean floor topographies show massive human habitats, and were explicitly mapped and known to the Egyptians, Greeks, Nordic tribes, Pictish tribes (Pequots, Pekhats), and even African tribes.
Yes, I believe the Greek and Egyptian mythology figures were secret navigation maps...

I am showing remarkable human habitat constructions virtually the entire distance from East to West.
If you look real close, not only will you see the "Athena" of previous image, but also the "Aten" King figure to the West, Southeast of Greenland.
In my amateur opinion, I believe this area was dedicated to Aten and Athena, Sun and Moon, and probably identified with Osiris, aka "Azores".
I often wonder, what is the mythology relationships between the God figures of Aten, Odin, Atum, and Adam, and of course, the Garden of Eden.
Correct me if I am misquoting, but is it any coincidence that the Arabic name for Temple, i.e., Ber or Berra, and Berra Aten, Britain, is just to the East of this Aten area?
I am researching some further theories, In followup images, where I attempt to show remarkable ancient maps showing the "Queen-dom of Eve", Ave-regnus, Avernus, of which Avebury, Eve-Berra, Temple of Eve, may be a part.
And in previous maps, this area is the northernmost limit of the Atlantean overlay, shown in my Flickr image...
www.flickr.com/photos/10749411@N03/5091647295/in/set-7215...
Much more to come on this North Atlantic area, (North Atlantis), which was mostly dry 10,000 years ago, and seems to be tied directly to the untold stories of the Pictish, Egyptian, Greek, Judaic, and Templar diffusion to the West, much earlier than Columbus.
January 14, 2014 update: I am very fascinated at my most recent study of the Pictish Beast-Dolphin, and the Egyptian Shu-Nut sea-level maps ...and how similar they are to this North Atlantic Land Bridge image...

Easily the most physically exhausting part of the entire bike. To make a long story short, I spent the next day cleaning blood and sweat off of the once polished hub.
Take a tip from me and pay to have a shop's machine do it in seconds. I used so much strength trying to get this thing on I managed to snap a tire iron in two pieces.
The Mediterranean Sea physically separates--but in other ways unites--southern Europe, the Middle East, and northern Africa.

Tens of thousands of Irish children were regularly sexually and physically abused by nuns, priests and others over a period of decades in hundreds of residential institutions that housed the poor, the vulnerable and the unwanted, according to a report released in Dublin on Wednesday.
“A climate of fear, created by pervasive, excessive and arbitrary punishment, permeated most of the institutions and all those run for boys,” the report said, adding that sexual abuse was “endemic” in boys’ institutions.
The commission was also hobbled by foot-dragging in the Department of Education, which had oversight responsibility for the institutions, and other state organizations that in 2003 prompted the resignation of the commission’s first director.
It is no longer so shocking to hear that such institutions were rife with violence and abuse, or that the Catholic and government establishments colluded; this has been openly discussed for years. But the report, by the Commission to Inquire Into Child Abuse, exposes for the first time the breathtaking magnitude of the problem, and shows how an entire establishment in an overwhelmingly Catholic country seemed to collude in perpetuating a cruel and sadistic system.
The report is 2,600 pages long, took nine years to prepare and reflected the anonymous testimony of 1,060 former students from a range of 216 institutions, including reform schools, orphanages and hospitals, from a period spanning, for the most part, 1930 to 1990. Most of the former students are now aged between 50 and 80.
The boys’ schools were mostly run by the Christian Brothers order of priests and form the largest part of the report. Many of the girls’ schools were run by orders of nuns, like the Sisters of Mercy. Students sent to these institutions, run often more like prisons or workhouses than schools, came from vulnerable segments of society.
Some poor families placed their children there because they were overwhelmed. Other children were sent to the homes after they were caught stealing or missing school, or if they became pregnant — even as a result of incest or abuse.
The last of the institutions closed in the 1990’s.
Some leaders of the religious orders have dismissed the report as a collection of lies and exaggerations. But victims’ advocates say it finally places the blame squarely where it belongs.
“While horrific, widespread reports of abuse and coverup are sadly quite common, the significance here is that a government panel is conclusively saying that the finger-pointing and blame-shifting and excuse-making of the church hierarchy is bogus,” said David Clohessy, director of the Survivors Network of those Abused by Priests, a group based in St. Louis, MO.
“The notion that highly educated church officials didn’t understand abuse or know it was criminal is a sham,” he said in an interview.
The report also says that in the rare circumstances when the abuse was officially reported — either by the children or their worried parents — the authorities looked the other way.
Speaking of sexual abuse, the report said that sometimes the abusers were moved to other facilities where they could prey on other children. “At worst, the child was blamed and seen as corrupted by the sexual activity, and was punished severely.”
The Most Rev. Vincent Nichols, who is the leader of the Catholic Church in England and
Wales, called the revelations “very distressing and very disturbing.” In an interview with ITV news, he said that he felt sympathy for “those in religious orders and some of the clergy in Dublin who have to face these facts from their past, which instinctively and quite naturally they’d rather not look at.”
He added: “That takes courage, and we shouldn’t forget that this account today will also overshadow all of the good that they did.”
He said that people who perpetrated the abuse should be held to account, and that the system currently in place would bring to light any new cases of abuse.
Maeve Lewis, executive director of One in Four, a victims’ organization in Dublin, told reporters there that the report was “shocking,” even when taking into account different standards of child-rearing in the past.
“These children lived under a regime of physical, sexual, emotional abuse and neglect,” she said.
The commission was formed in 2000, after campaigns by victims touched off by the broadcast of a television documentary about abuse in the children’s homes. In 1999, Bertie Ahern, then the prime minister, responded to the revelations with a public apology to the victims of the abuse.
Ireland, he said, had exhibited a “collective failure to intervene, to detect their pain, to come to their rescue.”
Since then, the issue has been a preoccupation for the Irish people, as the scale of past abuse has become apparent. In 2002, the Catholic Church in Ireland agreed to pay $175 million to compensate victims of sexual abuse by members of the clergy. A separate group has paid out nearly $1.5 billion to more than 10,000 people who have claimed they were abused in state and church-run institutions.
Wednesday’s report is striking in that it refrains from identifying anyone — either the perpetrators or the victims — by name. Many victims’ groups said that was unacceptable.
“If you don’t name names, accountability is short-circuited in this situation — you’re not able to get to the bottom of what happened,” said Terence McKiernan, president of BishopAccountability.org, an American group that maintains an Internet archive of material related to Catholic abuse.
“If you report on a system in which the Catholic Church and the Irish government worked together to create a situation in which children were abused, it’s incumbent on the government to conduct the inquiry in a system where punches were not pulled,” he said.
I can be mentally and physically prepared for anything, but still be taken out by an unexpected turn, an unforeseen circumstance, a failure of body or equipment. The only thing that will never fail is the will to take on the unknown with a spirit of adventure and willingness to adapt and overcome. Even from this high, with the ability to see so far into the distance, sometimes there is no need for a destination. The goal isn't about reaching a place, but rather reaching a state of mind in which every new turn and every high or low point of the ride presents an opportunity to take in the surroundings and appreciate a life that doesn't slow down or accelerate as expected. Sort of like a thrill-seeker's creed of sorts. :) it applies to the passion for life just as much as my passion for fun and exploration.
The Kalingas are the indigenous peoples of Kalinga, Philippines. They are generally known to be tall, dark-complexioned, and lissome with high bridsed noses. Physically they are very sturdy and well-built so that their war-like characteristics make them more like soldiers. They are believed to be descendants of the second group of Malays who came to the islands, as presented in Philippine history books.
The name Kalinga is believed to have come from Ibanas Kalinga and Gaddang Kalinga which both mean "headhunters." The Kalingas must have acquired their name because of their tradition of headhuntins during tribal wars.
The Kalingas settle on levelled or terraced areas on the slopes of steep mountains near rivers and streams with free, clear running water through the Chico, Pasil, Tanudan rivers with wide plateaus and floodplains and a large portion of open grass lands.
Many villages or in Kalinga are located in strategic areas where the villagers can be forewarned of intruders, or where the surrounding terrain is rugged and form a natural defense because of "tribal wars". Tribal wars occur when a bodong peace pact system was broken or violated.
The bodong is the most admirable and efficient Kalinga institution. It is a peace pact or treaty between two tribes, wherein the Pagta or laws on inter-tribal relations are made. The bodong is also the Magna Carta of the Kalingas.
The main source of livelihood among the Kalingas is the payew(ricefields) and the uma (swidden farm). Aside from food production, cattle are pastured there, and poultry is raised in the backyard. Small fish (gadiw), shell, and marine life are taken from the rivers. Men hunt for wild pigs, deer, and wild fowl in the forest using spears, indigenous traps or rifles. Fruit trees, coconut, coffee, and bananas are grown while sugarcane is planted and made into basi(wine). Other economic activities among Kalingas are cloth and basket-weaving, blacksmith, and pottery.
The Kalinga household consists of a nuclear family and sometimes, an aged grandparent. In general, the Kalingas show great respect for elders and they are clannish.
The Kalinga society may be stratified into lawa or kapus(poor) and the baknang(wealthy). Among the signs of prestige and wealth are possessions of several ricefields, working animals, heirlooms like china plates and jars, agate head/necklaces, and brass gongs.
The identification of self with the kinship circle could be such that whatever an individual does is the responsibility of the group, and whatever threatens the security of the group must be opposed by the individual.
Performance and media artwork
In their performance artist group Kiesmatic spends the entire festival inside a tent. During the three days of the festival they are in contact with the outer world only through their blog.
With this work Kiesmatic researches togetherness and the idea of a collective body. Being confined to a closed space is challenging both physically and mentally. Is it possible anymore to live without a personal and private space in our western subject-centred culture? How does isolation affect encountering each other and the social norms and roles within a community?
The blog makes public the changes happening within the micro-reality inside the tent. The work also comments on the change that social media has brought along: that it is possible to simultaneously be isolated but still communicate in a very public manner. What is the relationship between the public and the private in an identity created for the world wide web and in the writing of history?
Soon to celebrate its one-year birthday, Kiesmatic-group has just learned to walk and is now dropping down the lowest articles from the shelves of the art market. In a listening comprehension test it is constantly rambling along and pronouncing wrong. Kiesmatic fails in the class photo. It is a triangular circle whose 180 degrees are constituted by Hilda Kahra, Vilma Koskela and Kristiina Mäenpää. During Olohuone 306,4 km2 –festival Kiesmatic moves from home to the centre of the city and empties its rucksacks into the world of the internet.

In the last year I have been trying to improve my life physically after a pair of back surgeries…honestly, I have always been trying, but within this last year I have actually been doing it by hiking, biking and kayaking. On the first of this year I was planning a trip to the UP from Oregon, OH, just east of Toledo, which would take me around Lake Michigan. I am a geocacher so I plan every trip with the goal of collecting a few geocaches in different states and at random geological or historic sites. I was zooming in on the websites map north of the Mackinac area and I found a string of caches titled “NCT - (all kinds of things)” making a big weird S through Hiawatha National Forest. In the geocache description there is an elaborate but brief explanation of the NCT. Needless to say at this point I was floored that I had never heard of the North Country Trail. Around here the AT, PCT and CDT are public knowledge but how did I not know about the NCT which runs only 30 some odd miles away from my house and passes through all the places I love to visit. Hours of internet reading and book ordering later I had registered for the hike 100 challenge and adjusted my spring and summer trips to include a number of out and back hikes along the trail. In the first few months of the year I made the long round trip drive to do some short hikes along the historic Erie Canal, Wabash/Cannonball trail, through Maumee State Forrest and of course the beautiful Oak Openings Metro Park and then came our first planned trip. My kids and I (they are 10, 6 & 4) have a goal to visit all 74 Ohio state parks in the next two years. My youngest has Cerebral Palsy and does not walk yet so he gets to ride along for all of the hikes in a pack that helps him build his core muscle strength and keep his legs stretched, but most of all it lets him see and experience the world. So while in North East Ohio visiting parks we went a little further to Allegheny National Forest to collect some Pennsylvania and New York geocaches as well as to hike a few NCT miles. On one hike we went up from PA to the NY border. That was an 847’ elevation gain in just over a mile, a great challenge for the kids and beautiful hike. Later in the same trip we found ourselves at the Ohio / Pennsylvania border heading up into the state game lands. Another beautiful hike out (up) and back. [See if you can tell what the focus becomes for my hike 100 challenge - side goal]. I used “The North Country Trail” book by Ron Strickland to find some cool destinations and we decided to head over to Zoar, OH for a history lesson and lunch. That was a terrific stop and my hats off to Ron for the excellent guide, it led us to some fine sections of the trail already. Another interesting landmark was achieved on that short hike; it is the Eastern confluence of the NCT and the Buckeye Trail System. In the last month or so I made the trek out to my closest points of the trail and did a few miles here and there. Oak Openings is about as beautiful and “challenging” as it gets in the Great Black Swamp region where construction levels are more crooked than our skyline. I did however complete a little section hike where the Buckeye Trail splits off of the NCT (or joins depending on which way you go) at the Western end in Liberty Center, OH, so that landmark was completed. It is now July and my original vacation trip plans were getting finalized. Looking back I had already logged miles in three of the seven states, with both border crossings; why not add 12 or so hours to my trip to collect all the states and all the crossings? Fast forward to July 26th, that is today for me, and I will share the tale of a 2,300 mile road trip week that led me not only around the lake but to the conclusion of my hike 100 challenge. On a Monday morning at 0330 I left work in a rain storm with a final destination of the Historic Fort Abercrombie in North Dakota. The rain relented early enough that I was able to stop quickly and walk across the OH/MI border without too much trouble. As any fellow geocacher will understand, I could have delayed my trip exponentially by caching everywhere so I limited myself to caches close to the borders, highlight earth caches and those all-important state souvenirs. With only one side trip at the end across the South Dakota border I made it to ND as the sun was setting and found the trail. I set off for an out n’ back from the fort to Kent, MN across the beautiful Red River. It is interesting to note that just to the north in MN there is a pair of high water marks from 1897 and 1997 that are only made more ominous when arriving in Kent to find a nice memorial from the 1997 event. I had a nice local beverage at the pub before walking back and setting up camp in the state park to enjoy my sleep. As the sun rose over the fort the next morning I set out for Lake Itasca and the headwaters of the Mississippi. While driving along Rt. 34 I stopped at the Hubble Pond trail crossing, I had to, it is a very well maintained trailhead with beautiful signage and information. I was really impressed, thank you. I did not spend as much time on the NCT at Itasca as I did at the actual headwaters (only about half a mile) but I will say that the pure energy of the people and atmosphere in that park was so refreshing, like we were all in on some simple but profound secret that was improving our lives, it was awesome to be there. I was trying to make it into Ottawa National Forrest in the UP to visit my Uncle and Cousin that I have not seen in 15 years by the evening so my MN/WI border crossing hike was quick and uneventful. The WI/MI border proved to be more difficult as just a few weeks ago the area received a rainfall…er, deluge really, of 12-14” in less than two hours. There were still a large number of washed out roads and detours but I eventually made it down to the Montreal River, parked and hiked across my sixth and final NCT border. Now all I had to do was put on some serious miles to wrap this up, Pictured Rocks, here I come! Before I set out in the Pictured Rocks NF I stopped in Au Train for a loaded test hike. I parked at the river and headed west but it felt more up than out. There is something weird and beautiful about the Hiwatha National Forest and Au Train Region, somehow when I turned around I was still going up to get back to my truck. I know that is not physically possible but I could not convince my legs otherwise. I know you long hikers are giggling at me but hey, that was a tough 1.8 miles. The only thing I had set up in advance was my Altran ride from Munising Falls to Grand Sable for 1230 that afternoon; this was almost a major mistake. As a sidebar from my story I strongly recommend anyone planning a trip through or to Pictured Rocks to call more than 30 days (it used to be 14) ahead to reserve your campsites and obtain your permit. I was able to get my back country camping permit on the first come basis but it meant in the next three days I was hiking 7, 14 & 21+ miles respectively based on available camping sites. I would rather have finished sooner on the third day but that was it. So, permit in hand I offload the pack and gear ready for transportation. About halfway to Grand Sable I realized my hiking poles were in the bed of my truck tucked under my kayak. Ugh. Second bit of advice is that a written list would have been better. I was able to use a pole that that had been left on the Altran by someone two weeks prior and offered by the driver. I am not a fan of single sticking it but that was 50% better than nothing, thank you trail angles, I hope I deserved it. At the trail head visitor center I came upon a very adventurous soul who on his first ever experience backpacking had made it there along the NCT from Tahquamenon Falls, and found himself in the same dilemma I was in an hour earlier without reservations for the next 42.4 miles. He ended up with the same itinerary as I had so we buddied up to keep an eye on each other through the next three days. I will save the details of my Pictured Rocks experience as my own but share the highlights. “Awe”, as in awe inspiring, or awe-some is really the only English language word to describe it as a whole. It makes me wonder if founders in Michigan gave names like Au Sable, Au Train or Point Aux Barques with that in mind while doling out city names. In Pictured Rocks the views are amazing, the hikes are challenging, the people are few (in the eastern two thirds) but quality, the geography is top notch, the thunderstorms are violent, the history is ever present, the flies are legendary and the water is scarce. Okay, the last one needs explaining. Along with leaving my sticks I left my iodine tabs, and filters break. Tap water is scarce; lake, river and stream water is plentiful, plan accordingly. This year PRNP is also having a 50 and 100 mile hike challenge so I kept track of the camp and water hikes and ended up getting 50.2 total miles during the three days in the park, another challenge met. But most important is that just as my feet and muscles were really starting to scream at me south of Sand Point I achieved the NCT 100 mile benchmark! In the next few days as my muscles recovered I visited NCT sites at Tahquamenon Falls, St. Ignace, where the trail crosses M 123 (near the geocache that started it all) and the last stop on my way home yesterday was at Lowell, MI to poke my head in at the headquarters, visit a great cast and crew, and pass along my thanks for everything while collecting my patch and picking up souvenirs for the kids. All told in 28 different hikes at 25 different locations I recorded 100.8 unique miles along 108.1 total miles in all 7 states to include all 6 border crossings with 5 different people and the kids were along for 19.8 miles. The only thing left now is the East and West Terminus…oh…and those other 4,500 miles.

The Forty-First Session of WIPO’s Standing Committee on Copyright and Related Rights (SCCR) took place from June 28 to July 1, 2021 in hybrid form – with delegates and observers attending physically in Geneva, Switzerland, and via remote participation from around the world.

Gruene Hall, built in 1878, is Texas’ oldest continually operating and most famous dance hall. By design, not much has physically changed since the Hall was first built. The 6,000 square foot dance hall with a high pitched tin roof still has the original layout with side flaps for open air dancing, a bar in the front, a small lighted stage in the back and a huge outdoor garden. Advertisement signs from the 1930s and 40s still hang in the old hall and around the stage.
In the 1800s, Gruene Hall held weekly dances and played host to everything from traveling salesmen to high school graduations to badger fights. Today, the Hall has continued to be a center for the Gruene and Central Texas social and entertainment scene, and the activities are just as varied. In any given week, locals hold court in the front bar after work talking over their day’s activities, a friend’s passing, the weather or the state of the economy. Possibly at the same time, the filming of a movie or commercial or preparation for a festival, fundraiser or a major corporation’s private party may be taking place in the main hall or beer garden.
Under the current ownership, Gruene Hall has become internationally recognized as a destination tourist attraction and major music venue for up-and-coming as well as established artists. Since 1975, the Hall has played host to hundreds of celebrities whose pictures adorn the walls. The owner’s focus on booking singer-songwriters and artists who play original material has provided a fertile proving ground for many former “new talents” such as George Strait, Hal Ketchum, and Lyle Lovett.
Gruene Hall has also become a place where working songwriters, such as John Hiatt or Rodney Crowell, Kevin Welch or Jim Lauderdale, can try out new material or just take a breather between tour dates; where music icons such as Little Richard, Jerry Lee Lewis, Bo Diddley, Merle Haggard or Kris Kristofferson can play in a more intimate venue; where former “up and comers” such as Garth Brooks, Chris Isaak or the Dixie Chicks can extend their tour; and where big names such as Willie Nelson and Aaron Neville have chosen to perform.
Through the years, the big winners have always been Gruene Hall’s patrons. A person watching a show never knows if the artist they see at the Hall today will be a star tomorrow, but they can know that the music they hear will always be top notch.

"If your students want an education..." - Right to education violable under occupation? On Thursday morning Israeli forces detained Palestinian teachers and students from Qurtuba school for over two hours at Shuhada checkpoint in occupied al-Khalil (Hebron) without reason and despite the fact that students and teachers always have to pass the checkpoint to reach school. Israeli forces have again denied students their right to education by preventing students as well as teachers from reaching their classes. Qurtuba school is located in the H2 neighborhood of occupied al-Khalil, under full Israeli military control. All students and teachers coming from the H1-area, supposedly under full Palestinian control, are forced to pass both the Shuhada checkpoint and another checkpoint just a few meters down the street, in order to reach their school. Whereas a major part of the teachers and students were allowed to pass Shuhada checkpoint as they do every morning, a group of 5 teachers, including the director, and 3 students were detained at the checkpoint and not allowed to pass. The group was kept waiting inside the checkpoint box, as Israeli forces tried to force them to pass through the metal detector, even though there's an official decision that teachers and students on their way to school do not have to pass through the metal detector. After the group pointed out this agreement--insisting that the soldiers respect it--Israeli forces closed the checkpoint to all other civilian Palestinians, telling everyone that no one would be allowed to pass as long as the teachers were 'making trouble'. After some time the teachers were allowed to pass and hurried to school. Because of this harassment, they arrived at class more than half an hour late. The director stayed outside the checkpoint, waiting for her students and was told by a soldier, 'if you're students want an education, then they have to pass the metal detector'. The soldiers insisted that they can't depend on a 'precedent', even though there's an official agreement that students and teachers don't have to pass the checkpoint. They kept pretending that they 'knew the law', which they clearly didn't. A group of 3 Palestinian officials from 'Save the Children' were denied to pass the checkpoint by the Israeli forces. In the end, after more than two hours of co-ordination with officials, Israeli forces finally allowed the 3 students, standing outside in the freezing cold, to pass and reach their school - in accordance with the official agreement in which they do not have to pass the metal detector. Earlier that day, when internationals attempted to pass the same checkpoint in the morning, Israeli forces were already adjusting the law according to their whim. First, they let the internationals pass. Just a few minutes later, they ran after the internationals up a hill, demanding their passports. Israeli soldiers are not allowed to physically take and photograph international passports. The soldiers, though, insisted. When reminded of the law he just replied ‘It’s my checkpoint, I do whatever I want”. In the end, they let the internationals go, but not without promising them that the next time they will not allow them to pass. A few meters up the hill, another group of soldiers stopped the internationals, as they were ordered by the other soldiers to not allow them to pass the checkpoint. Israeli forces when denying them passage, argued that they’re responsible for the ‘security’ of the internationals and it would be ‘dangerous’ for them to pass the checkpoint. The irony of the situation though, is that the internationals, who have been harassed, stopped and yelled at by the soldiers (all heavily-armed with machine-guns) are assured by the same soldiers that it was actually their duty to protect them. They are the ones Palestinian civilians and internationals need to be protected from. See all with more pictures: bit.ly/2kuNAm1 - bit.ly/2jIiJy9
There is numerous method of practicing meditation. This will depend on your physically health, profession, nature and time available. First of all for all type of Dhyan.. Meditation room is to be separately decorated with inspiring picture of great saints, prophets, great teacher with beautiful photo of your god. Then wash your hand legs and face before seating in meditation... For Dhyan morning time between 5 to 7 and in the evening between 6 to 8 is good.
A)OM MANTRA DHYAN
Sit in comfortable meditative pose with eyes gently closed. Keep your back straight and stretched up with the shoulders relaxed. Recite silently Om Mantra with full attention the mind should be fully focused on the rhythmic flow of mantra. Practice minimum for 10 minutes daily and slowly increase the time.
B)JYOTI DHYAN
Sit in a comfortable meditative pose with eyes open. Keep a burning candle or Jyoti 4 feet from you with the level of your eyes. To start just look for a while then start gazing at Jyoti as long as you can without blinking the eyes. After some time close the eyes and mentally watch the flame. Visualize the pattern ad color of Jyoti. Concentrate on flame for as long as your can hold your concentration. Do it daily minimum for 10 to 15 minutes. Jyoti Dhyan is also one of the parts of “TRATAK SHATKARMA”.
C)WALKING DHYAN
When you feel agitated or restless, walk minimum for 10 to 15 minutes down the corridor or at work place or home or in the park. Try to harmonize your steps with your breathing. The repetitive motion of your legs and Arms helps you to enter a meditative state which takes away the anxiety and anger.
D)IMAGE DHYAN
Place a picture of your God in front of you. Sit in a meditative posture concentrate gently on the picture till your eyes shed tears. Rotate the mind on those pictures feet, legs on chest and the crown of the head. Then close the eyes and visualize that picture. Repeat the same process again and again.
E)MEMORY DHYAN
Read two to three pages of a book. Then closed the book now attend to what you have read focus your attention carefully. Allow the mind to associate, classify group combine and compare. If you attend to the subject on hand very carefully you will receive clear strong impression. If the impression is strong you will have very good memory.
F)DHYAN ON THOUGHTS
Sit in comfortably in any meditative posture. Keep your back upright neck and shoulder relax. Close your eyes gently. Concentrate on whatever thought comes to your mind. Let them come and go after some time thought will disappear. Mind become completely quite and calm. To get the better result to start 15 to 20 minutes a day is good.
G). NAD DHYAN
Sit in your favorite Asana. Close your eyes and close the ears with your thumbs. Try to hear the Anahat sound (mystic sound) after practicing for two to three days you will hear various kind of sounds such as flute, thunder storm and humming of a bee etc. Try to hear gross sound firstly you will hear sounds in your right ear. Occasionally you may hear in your left ear also. But try to stick to the sound of one ear. This is easy way to capture the mind. Do it till the time you are unable to hear sound.
H) CHAKRA DHYAN
This is an advance meditative practice in which the concentration is focused on the various energy center or charkas. There are 7 chakras in human body and they are described corresponding to different endocrine gland. Charkas are (1) Mooladhara (2) Swadhisthan (3) Manipura (4) Anahata (5) Vishudhi (6) Ajna (7) Shasatrasar. Hold your attention on each Chakra for as long as you pleased. Imagine you are breathing in and out from the charkas on which you are holding attention. Try this method of Dhyan for 10 to 15 minutes every day. Perception of these psychic centers will bring to development of the endocrine glands. Which in terms will establish not only firm control of reasoning mind over all action? But also correct the unbalanced psychosomatic and metabolic activities To know more visit www.yogagurusuneelsingh.com or call 09810210802 Pic by Vijay gautam.
These are the two final people to physically handle the models in Seoul before they are out into those big cardboard cartons and trucked to the airport for shipment to the importer in whatever country that importer was located in. This factory built brass models for many different importers located all over the globe.

Alonso Sanches Coello (1531/32-1588)
Active in Madrid
Infante Don Carlos, 1564
This portrait of the eldest son of King Philip II of Spain was intended as a gift to the Vienna court in view of his planned marriage to his cousin Anna, the daughter of Emperor Maximilian II. In contrast to his heroised image in literature (Friedrich von Schiller) and opera (Giuseppe Verdi), Carlos was mentally ill and physically handicapped. This Spanish court portrait combines intense observation of reality with a distanced approach intended to create an impression of royal dignity and majesty.
Alonso Sanches Coello (1531/32-1588)
Tätig in Madrid
Infant Don Carlos, 1564
Das Bildnis des ältesten Sohnes König Philipps II. von Spanien war als Geschenk für den Wiener Hof bestimmt, weil eine Heirat zwischen Carlos und seiner Cousine Anna, der Tochter Kaiser Maximilians II., geplant war. Entgegen seinem heroisierenden Bild in Literatur (Friedrich Schiller) und Oper (Guiseppe Verdi) war Carlos psychisch krank und körperlich behindert. Das spanische höfische Porträt vereint intensive Beobachtung der Wirklichkeit mit distanzierter Haltung, die den Eindruck von fürstlicher Würde und Majestät vermitteln soll.

Main building of the Kunsthistorisches Museum at Maria-Theresa-Square
The Kunsthistorisches Museum (KHM abbreviated) is an art museum in Vienna. It is one of the largest and most important museums in the world. It was opened in 1891 and 2012 visited of 1.351.940 million people.
The museum
The Kunsthistorisches Museum is with its opposite sister building, the Natural History Museum (Naturhistorisches Museum), the most important historicist large buildings of the Ringstrasse time. Together they stand around the Maria Theresa square, on which also the Maria Theresa monument stands. This course spans the former glacis between today's ring road and 2-line, and is forming a historical landmark that also belongs to World Heritage Site Historic Centre of Vienna.
History
Archduke Leopold Wilhelm in his Gallery
The Museum came from the collections of the Habsburgs, especially from the portrait and armor collections of Ferdinand of Tyrol, the collection of Emperor Rudolf II (most of which, however scattered) and the art collection of Archduke Leopold Wilhelm into existence. Already In 1833 asked Joseph Arneth, curator (and later director) of the Imperial Coins and Antiquities Cabinet, bringing together all the imperial collections in a single building .
Architectural History
The contract to build the museum in the city had been given in 1858 by Emperor Franz Joseph. Subsequently, many designs were submitted for the ring road zone. Plans by August Sicard von Sicardsburg and Eduard van der Null planned to build two museum buildings in the immediate aftermath of the Imperial Palace on the left and right of the Heroes' Square (Heldenplatz). The architect Ludwig Förster planned museum buildings between the Schwarzenberg Square and the City Park, Martin Ritter von Kink favored buildings at the corner Währingerstraße/ Scots ring (Schottenring), Peter Joseph, the area Bellariastraße, Moritz von Loehr the south side of the opera ring, and Ludwig Zettl the southeast side of the grain market (Getreidemarkt).
From 1867, a competition was announced for the museums, and thereby set their current position - at the request of the Emperor, the museum should not be too close to the Imperial Palace, but arise beyond the ring road. The architect Carl von Hasenauer participated in this competition and was able the at that time in Zürich operating Gottfried Semper to encourage to work together. The two museum buildings should be built here in the sense of the style of the Italian Renaissance. The plans got the benevolence of the imperial family. In April 1869, there was an audience with of Joseph Semper at the Emperor Franz Joseph and an oral contract was concluded, in July 1870 was issued the written order to Semper and Hasenauer.
Crucial for the success of Semper and Hasenauer against the projects of other architects were among others Semper's vision of a large building complex called "Imperial Forum", in which the museums would have been a part of. Not least by the death of Semper in 1879 came the Imperial Forum not as planned for execution, the two museums were built, however.
Construction of the two museums began without ceremony on 27 November 1871 instead. Semper moved to Vienna in the sequence. From the beginning, there were considerable personal differences between him and Hasenauer, who finally in 1877 took over sole construction management. 1874, the scaffolds were placed up to the attic and the first floor completed, built in 1878, the first windows installed in 1879, the Attica and the balustrade from 1880 to 1881 and built the dome and the Tabernacle. The dome is topped with a bronze statue of Pallas Athena by Johannes Benk.
The lighting and air conditioning concept with double glazing of the ceilings made the renunciation of artificial light (especially at that time, as gas light) possible, but this resulted due to seasonal variations depending on daylight to different opening times .

Empire
The Kunsthistorisches Museum was on 17 October 1891 officially opened by Emperor Franz Joseph I. Since 22 October 1891 , the museum is accessible to the public. Two years earlier, on 3 November 1889, the collection of arms, Arms and Armour today, had their doors open. On 1 January 1890 the library service resumed its operations. The merger and listing of other collections of the Highest Imperial Family from the Upper and Lower Belvedere, the Hofburg Palace and Ambras in Tyrol will need another two years.
189, the farm museum was organized in seven collections with three directorates:
Directorate of coins, medals and antiquities collection
The Egyptian Collection
The Antique Collection
The coins and medals collection
Management of the collection of weapons, art and industrial objects
Weapons collection
Collection of industrial art objects
Directorate of Art Gallery and Restaurieranstalt (Restoration Office)
Collection of watercolors, drawings, sketches, etc.
Restoration Office
Library
Very soon the room the Court Museum (Hofmuseum) for the imperial collections was offering became too narrow. To provide temporary help, an exhibition of ancient artifacts from Ephesus in the Theseus Temple was designed. However, additional space had to be rented in the Lower Belvedere.
1914, after the assassination of Franz Ferdinand, heir to the throne, his " Estonian Forensic Collection " passed to the administration of the Court Museum. This collection, which emerged from the art collection of the house of d' Este and world travel collection of Franz Ferdinand, was placed in the New Imperial Palace since 1908. For these stocks, the present collection of old musical instruments and the Museum of Ethnology emerged.
The First World War went by, apart from the oppressive economic situation without loss. The farm museum remained during the five years of war regularly open to the public.
Until 1919 the K.K. Art Historical Court Museum was under the authority of the Oberstkämmereramt (head chamberlain office) and belonged to the House of Habsburg-Lorraine. The officials and employees were part of the royal household.
First Republic
The transition from monarchy to republic, in the museum took place in complete tranquility. On 19 November 1918 the two imperial museums on Maria Theresa Square were placed under the state protection of the young Republic of German Austria. Threatening to the stocks of the museum were the claims raised in the following weeks and months of the "successor states" of the monarchy as well as Italy and Belgium on Austrian art collection. In fact, it came on 12th February 1919 to the violent removal of 62 paintings by armed Italian units. This "art theft" left a long time trauma among curators and art historians.
It was not until the Treaty of Saint-Germain of 10 September 1919, providing in Article 195 and 196 the settlement of rights in the cultural field by negotiations. The claims of Belgium, Czechoslovakia, and Italy again could mostly being averted in this way. Only Hungary, which presented the greatest demands by far, was met by more than ten years of negotiation in 147 cases.
On 3 April 1919 was the expropriation of the House of Habsburg-Lorraine by law and the acquisition of its property, including the "Collections of the Imperial House" , by the Republic. Of 18 June 1920 the then provisional administration of the former imperial museums and collections of Este and the secular and clergy treasury passed to the State Office of Internal Affairs and Education, since 10 November 1920, the Federal Ministry of the Interior and Education. A few days later it was renamed the Art History Court Museum in the "Kunsthistorisches Museum, Vienna State", 1921 "Kunsthistorisches Museum" . Of 1st January 1921 the employees of the museum staff passed to the state of the Republic.
Through the acquisition of the former imperial collections owned by the state, the museum found itself in a complete new situation. In order to meet the changed circumstances in the museum area, designed Hans Tietze in 1919 the "Vienna Museum program". It provided a close cooperation between the individual museums to focus at different houses on main collections. So dominated exchange, sales and equalizing the acquisition policy in the interwar period. Thus resulting until today still valid collection trends. Also pointing the way was the relocation of the weapons collection from 1934 in its present premises in the New Castle, where since 1916 the collection of ancient musical instruments was placed.
With the change of the imperial collections in the ownership of the Republic the reorganization of the internal organization went hand in hand, too. Thus the museum was divided in 1919 into the Egyptian and Near Eastern Collection (with the Oriental coins)
Collection of Classical Antiquities
Collection of ancient coins
Collection of modern coins and medals
Weapons collection
Collection of sculptures and crafts with the Collection of Ancient Musical Instruments

The Museum 1938-1945
Count Philipp Ludwig Wenzel Sinzendorf according to Rigaud. Clarisse 1948 by Baroness de Rothschildt "dedicated" to the memory of Baron Alphonse de Rothschildt; restituted to the Rothschilds in 1999, and in 1999 donated by Bettina Looram Rothschild, the last Austrian heiress.
With the "Anschluss" of Austria to the German Reich all Jewish art collections such as the Rothschilds were forcibly "Aryanised". Collections were either "paid" or simply distributed by the Gestapo at the museums. This resulted in a significant increase in stocks. But the KHM was not the only museum that benefited from the linearization. Systematically looted Jewish property was sold to museums, collections or in pawnshops throughout the empire.
After the war, the museum struggled to reimburse the "Aryanised" art to the owners or their heirs. They forced the Rothschild family to leave the most important part of their own collection to the museum and called this "dedications", or "donations". As a reason, was the export law stated, which does not allow owners to perform certain works of art out of the country. Similar methods were used with other former owners. Only on the basis of international diplomatic and media pressure, to a large extent from the United States, the Austrian government decided to make a change in the law (Art Restitution Act of 1998, the so-called Lex Rothschild). The art objects were the Rothschild family refunded only in the 1990s.
The Kunsthistorisches Museum operates on the basis of the federal law on the restitution of art objects from the 4th December 1998 (Federal Law Gazette I, 181 /1998) extensive provenance research. Even before this decree was carried out in-house provenance research at the initiative of the then archive director Herbert Haupt. This was submitted in 1998 by him in collaboration with Lydia Grobl a comprehensive presentation of the facts about the changes in the inventory levels of the Kunsthistorisches Museum during the Nazi era and in the years leading up to the State Treaty of 1955, an important basis for further research provenance.
The two historians Susanne Hehenberger and Monika Löscher are since 1st April 2009 as provenance researchers at the Kunsthistorisches Museum on behalf of the Commission for Provenance Research operating and they deal with the investigation period from 1933 to the recent past.
The museum today
Today the museum is as a federal museum, with 1st January 1999 released to the full legal capacity - it was thus the first of the state museums of Austria, implementing the far-reaching self-financing. It is by far the most visited museum in Austria with 1.3 million visitors (2007).
The Kunsthistorisches Museum is under the name Kunsthistorisches Museum and Museum of Ethnology and the Austrian Theatre Museum with company number 182081t since 11 June 1999 as a research institution under public law of the Federal virtue of the Federal Museums Act, Federal Law Gazette I/115/1998 and the Museum of Procedure of the Kunsthistorisches Museum and Museum of Ethnology and the Austrian Theatre Museum, 3 January 2001, BGBl II 2/ 2001, in force since 1 January 2001, registered.
In fiscal 2008, the turnover was 37.185 million EUR and total assets amounted to EUR 22.204 million. In 2008 an average of 410 workers were employed.

In California, 73% of fifth, seventh, and ninth graders did not achieve minimum physical fitness standards in 2004. In LAUSD, 87% of students were not physically fit. Yet in 2006, 51% of school districts studied in California, including LAUSD, did not enforce statutory physical education requirements. At LAUSD's South Gate High School, 1,600 children took the state Fitnessgram test and not one passed. Forty schools did not have a single physically fit student. Less than 10% of students were physically fit in nearly one-third of the 605 schools in LAUSD. Only eight schools had student populations that are more than 50% physically fit.
The shared use of parks and schools can alleviate the lack of places to play and recreate, while making optimal use of scarce land and public resources. Unfortunately, only 103 out of 605 LAUSD schools have five acres of more of playing fields, as shown in Map 903. Those schools tend to be located in areas that are disproportionately white and wealthy and have greater access to parks. LAUSD provides 71% more play acres for non-Hispanic white students than for Latino students in elementary schools. There were only 30 joint use agreements between LAUSD and the City of Los Angeles Recreation and Parks Department as of April 2006. The Olmsted Report and the 2006 audit by City Controller Laura Chick of recreation and parks both call for the shared use of parks and schools.
There are unfair park, school, and health disparities by school district.
Thus, for example, District 1 (LaMotte) in the South Los Angeles has 1.05 net acres of urban parks per thousand residents, compared to 9.94 net acres in District 3 (Galatzan) in the San Fernando Valley.
The disparities are even more dramatic if total acres of parks are included. There are 1.59 acres of total parks per thousand residents in District 1 (LaMotte), and 69.71 in District 6 (Korenstein) in the Valley.
District 1 is disproportionately populated by people of color and low income people, while District 3 is disproportionately white and wealthy.
These facts are illustrated in Chart 901C and Graph 901N.

After being drained physically and mentally at the conclusion of a 2 month old work project today I completed the above misting system another 50 feet that goes along my newly constructed lath house and then adds more mist that has already been within my patio.
So today after filling my humming bird feeders up this butterfly decided to come into my lath house for time out from the hot sun and suck up a bit of waterdrops... for me... a great way to decompress.
The background of the butterfly is a hand made glass star that sits on a ledge of the lath house which by chance the butterfly decide to perch in front of..

Sir Peter Fahy lends a hand.
Greater Manchester Police has today (14 July) joined up with Manchester City Council to support charity Syria Relief with the launch of a humanitarian aid volunteering facility in Openshaw, Manchester.
The facility, provided by Manchester City Council at New Smithfield Market will give the general public an opportunity to physically and positively support the planning and hard work that goes into collecting and preparing aid for Syria. Communities are encouraged to take donations of clothes, blankets and food to the facility and get involved with packing them onto containers ready to be sent to those in need Syria.
There are many people in Greater Manchester who wish to help the Syrian refugees who have suffered terribly during the Syrian civil war, and would like to do more than simply donate money to charity. The volunteering facility offers an alternative to people who feel compelled to travel out to Syria and risk their lives to help the humanitarian aid effort.
Greater Manchester residents are being urged to stay in the UK to help at centres such as this one, or donate to well-known charities that have the expertise and access to deliver the humanitarian aid to the right areas in Syria.
GMP Chief Constable Sir Peter Fahy, who is the national Prevent lead for ACPO TAM said:
“We know there are many people in Greater Manchester and nationally who want to support the millions of people who are caught up in the Syrian conflict. Anyone who does travel there is putting themselves in considerable danger and that is why this volunteering facility is so valuable right here in Greater Manchester, giving people the opportunity to donate and assist with the humanitarian effort without putting themselves and others in danger.
“It’s very positive to see communities and organisations working together and this partnership highlights the support that can be given locally to a national cause. “
Sir Peter was joined at the launch by Deputy Leader of Manchester City Council, Councillor Bernard Priest and the Deputy Police and Crime Commissioner Jim Battle.
Deputy PCC Jim Battle said:
“The humanitarian crisis in Syria is something people in Greater Manchester care deeply about. This volunteering facility gives the opportunity to assist some of the most vulnerable people without the need to travel to the conflict zone.
“Community spirit has yet again come to the fore, and it’s a real credit to Greater Manchester people that they are so willing to give their own time and donations to help people far worse off than themselves. Greater Manchester Police, Manchester City Council and people from all across Greater Manchester have shown the whole world that they care.”
Cllr Priest said:
"I know that many Mancunians and people from across the North West have been strongly moved by the plight of those suffering because of the Syrian conflict, and want to do more than just donate money to charity.
"This facility is an excellent opportunity for our communities to provide experienced organisations with items that will make a difference to those in need - such as clothes, blankets and food. I urge Manchester residents to visit this centre rather than risk tragedy by attempting to travel to Syria themselves."
Chairman of Syria Relief, Dr Basil Hatahet added: "While the news currently focuses on the brutality of the war and the emergence of fundamentalist groups in Syria, the ever-worsening humanitarian situation and human suffering continue.
“This joint initiative between Syria Relief, Manchester City Council and Great Manchester Police invites the citizens of Manchester to help alleviate the suffering by giving their time and efforts, as well as their financial and in-kind donation in a safe and practical way."

The Kalingas are the indigenous peoples of Kalinga, Philippines. They are generally known to be tall, dark-complexioned, and lissome with high bridsed noses. Physically they are very sturdy and well-built so that their war-like characteristics make them more like soldiers. They are believed to be descendants of the second group of Malays who came to the islands, as presented in Philippine history books.
The name Kalinga is believed to have come from Ibanas Kalinga and Gaddang Kalinga which both mean "headhunters." The Kalingas must have acquired their name because of their tradition of headhuntins during tribal wars.
The Kalingas settle on levelled or terraced areas on the slopes of steep mountains near rivers and streams with free, clear running water through the Chico, Pasil, Tanudan rivers with wide plateaus and floodplains and a large portion of open grass lands.
Many villages or in Kalinga are located in strategic areas where the villagers can be forewarned of intruders, or where the surrounding terrain is rugged and form a natural defense because of "tribal wars". Tribal wars occur when a bodong peace pact system was broken or violated.
The bodong is the most admirable and efficient Kalinga institution. It is a peace pact or treaty between two tribes, wherein the Pagta or laws on inter-tribal relations are made. The bodong is also the Magna Carta of the Kalingas.
The main source of livelihood among the Kalingas is the payew(ricefields) and the uma (swidden farm). Aside from food production, cattle are pastured there, and poultry is raised in the backyard. Small fish (gadiw), shell, and marine life are taken from the rivers. Men hunt for wild pigs, deer, and wild fowl in the forest using spears, indigenous traps or rifles. Fruit trees, coconut, coffee, and bananas are grown while sugarcane is planted and made into basi(wine). Other economic activities among Kalingas are cloth and basket-weaving, blacksmith, and pottery.
The Kalinga household consists of a nuclear family and sometimes, an aged grandparent. In general, the Kalingas show great respect for elders and they are clannish.
The Kalinga society may be stratified into lawa or kapus(poor) and the baknang(wealthy). Among the signs of prestige and wealth are possessions of several ricefields, working animals, heirlooms like china plates and jars, agate head/necklaces, and brass gongs.
The identification of self with the kinship circle could be such that whatever an individual does is the responsibility of the group, and whatever threatens the security of the group must be opposed by the individual.
“I wouldn’t call it a religious experience exactly. I mean, I’m not sure he even touched me.”
“You mean ‘spiritually?’”
“No. Physically. He touched me. Like groped. But I can’t be sure. It was all so fast and … light.”
“Light?”
“Yeah. But it was also maybe just my imagination.”
“So it could have been spiritual. You were in a monastery and hoping for some kind of thing to happen to your soul.”
“And it happened to my body instead?”
“Yeah, sort of veering around the soul and going directly for the clit.”
…
“But then I have this weird dream. I never dream—“
“But you’re at the monastery so anything can happen.”
“Right. So I’m flying around on Brother Antonious’s back and he’s showing me the vineyards and we’re swooping in for a closer look and all the monks tilling the vineyards are naked. And then I notice we’re naked too.”
“I didn’t think they had vineyards there.”
“They don’t. This is a dream, remember.”
“So you don’t really know if this monk groped you or not. Maybe you wanted him to grope you. Was he cute?”
“Oh, yeah. They’re all cute. Because they’re monks. But really they’re just regular guys; you just feel a little strange around them. They’re not quite men so you’re not quite a woman. You’re children of God. That’s the theory.”
“Didn’t work with Brother Antonious.”
“No. He was really white, you know. Kind of extra scrubbed. Like he’d gotten trapped in the rinse cycle for a coupla years. His name was Bob. Before he became a monk he had his own upholstery business.”
“I didn’t even know you went to church.”
“I don’t. I just needed a break and went to this monastery. I could’ve gone to a spa, I guess, but I thought I’d check it out. I was raised a Baptist and we didn’t have monks. We had preachers with veins popping out of their neck telling us we were going to hell. So monks are a novelty. And we couldn’t even dance, much less drink wine.”
“I never went to church either. My parents were socialists. They thought religion was a kind of insurance scam. Once we were out driving around and passed this big tent where some kind of revival was going on. We could hear people singing, so we stopped. A woman came running out of the tent and dropped to the ground and started rolling around while people watched. My father said it was an example of human derangement brought on by the exploitation of capital.”
…
“Why is it waiters in Mexican restaurants never flirt?”
“They haven’t been in this country long enough to understand our expectations.”
“French waiters flirt instinctively. They have to be trained not to flirt. American waiters loiter in the men’s room checking messages on their cell phones. It’s really kind of disgusting when you think about it.”
19 Seaman Ave (between Dyckman & Cumming), NYC

Inwood is the northernmost neighborhood in the New York City. It is physically bounded by the Harlem River to the north and east, and the Hudson River to the west. It extends southward to Fort Tryon Park and alternatively Dyckman Street or Fairview Avenue further south, depending on the source. Notably, while Inwood is the northernmost neighborhood on the island of Manhattan, it is not the northernmost neighborhood of the entire borough of Manhattan. That distinction is held by Marble Hill, a Manhattan neighborhood situated just north of Inwood, on what is properly the North American mainland bordering the Bronx.
On May 24, 1626, Peter Minuit, the director general of the Dutch colony of New Netherland, bought the island from the Lenape Indians for 60 Dutch guilders and, the story goes, some trinkets. On the southern tip of the island Minuit founded New Amsterdam . A plaque marking what is believed to be the spot of the sale is in Inwood Hill Park, the only natural forest left in Manhattan.
Inwood was a very rural section of Manhattan well into the early 20th century. Once the IRT subway reached Inwood in 1906, speculative developers constructed numerous apartment buildings on the east side of Broadway. Construction continued into the 1930s, when the IND subway reached Dyckman and 207th Street along Broadway and the large estates west of Broadway (Seaman, Dyckman, Isham, etc.) were sold off and developed. Many of Inwood's impressive Art Deco apartment buildings were constructed during this period.
The residents of Inwood were substantially of Irish and Jewish descent for much of the 20th century. The neighborhood exhibited a strong Irish identity with many Irish shops, pubs, and even a Gaelic football field in Inwood Hill Park, while Jewish life was centered east of Broadway. However, in the 1960s-1980s, many Irish and Jewish residents moved out of Inwood to the outer boroughs and suburbs in a pattern consistent with overall trends in the city at that time. During the same period that the Irish and Jewish were leaving Inwood, there was a dramatic rise in the number of immigrants from the Dominican Republic to the area.
Today, Inwood has a very predominantly Dominican population in the majority of the neighborhood, particularly in the areas east of Broadway. A few elderly Irish remain in the blocks near the Church of the Good Shepherd at Isham Street, though even its Mass services are now offered in Spanish nearly as often as in English. The Jewish population is greatly diminished and the synagogues and hospital that once served it have been repurposed or torn down. Other than the aforementioned historically dominant groups, the remaining population of Inwood is diverse, similar in makeup to the rest of New York City.
Notable current and former residents of Inwood include: Kareem Abdul-Jabbar (former NBA basketball star), Jim Carroll (author of The Basketball Diaries), Wynn Handman (Artistic Director of The American Place Theatre), Bess Houdini (wife of magician and stunt performer Harry Houdini), Lionel Mapleson (violinist and librarian of the Metropolitan Opera House for nearly 50 years. Creator of the Mapleson Cylinders, one of the earliest recordings of live classical music), Lin-Manuel Miranda (actor and writer of the Broadway musical In the Heights), Henry Stern (longtime former Commissioner of the New York City Department of Parks and Recreation), Isidor Straus (owner of Macy's department store), and Will McIntosh (Winner of the 2010 Hugo Award for Best Short Story).
Alonso Sanches Coello (1531/32-1588)
Active in Madrid
Infante Don Carlos, 1564
This portrait of the eldest son of King Philip II of Spain was intended as a gift to the Vienna court in view of his planned marriage to his cousin Anna, the daughter of Emperor Maximilian II. In contrast to his heroised image in literature (Friedrich von Schiller) and opera (Giuseppe Verdi), Carlos was mentally ill and physically handicapped. This Spanish court portrait combines intense observation of reality with a distanced approach intended to create an impression of royal dignity and majesty.

Main building of the Kunsthistorisches Museum at Maria-Theresa-Square
The Kunsthistorisches Museum (KHM abbreviated) is an art museum in Vienna. It is one of the largest and most important museums in the world. It was opened in 1891 and 2012 visited of 1.351.940 million people.
The museum
The Kunsthistorisches Museum is with its opposite sister building, the Natural History Museum (Naturhistorisches Museum), the most important historicist large buildings of the Ringstrasse time. Together they stand around the Maria Theresa square, on which also the Maria Theresa monument stands. This course spans the former glacis between today's ring road and 2-line, and is forming a historical landmark that also belongs to World Heritage Site Historic Centre of Vienna.
History
Archduke Leopold Wilhelm in his Gallery
The Museum came from the collections of the Habsburgs, especially from the portrait and armor collections of Ferdinand of Tyrol, the collection of Emperor Rudolf II (most of which, however scattered) and the art collection of Archduke Leopold Wilhelm into existence. Already In 1833 asked Joseph Arneth, curator (and later director) of the Imperial Coins and Antiquities Cabinet, bringing together all the imperial collections in a single building .
Architectural History
The contract to build the museum in the city had been given in 1858 by Emperor Franz Joseph. Subsequently, many designs were submitted for the ring road zone. Plans by August Sicard von Sicardsburg and Eduard van der Null planned to build two museum buildings in the immediate aftermath of the Imperial Palace on the left and right of the Heroes' Square (Heldenplatz). The architect Ludwig Förster planned museum buildings between the Schwarzenberg Square and the City Park, Martin Ritter von Kink favored buildings at the corner Währingerstraße/ Scots ring (Schottenring), Peter Joseph, the area Bellariastraße, Moritz von Loehr the south side of the opera ring, and Ludwig Zettl the southeast side of the grain market (Getreidemarkt).
From 1867, a competition was announced for the museums, and thereby set their current position - at the request of the Emperor, the museum should not be too close to the Imperial Palace, but arise beyond the ring road. The architect Carl von Hasenauer participated in this competition and was able the at that time in Zürich operating Gottfried Semper to encourage to work together. The two museum buildings should be built here in the sense of the style of the Italian Renaissance. The plans got the benevolence of the imperial family. In April 1869, there was an audience with of Joseph Semper at the Emperor Franz Joseph and an oral contract was concluded, in July 1870 was issued the written order to Semper and Hasenauer.
Crucial for the success of Semper and Hasenauer against the projects of other architects were among others Semper's vision of a large building complex called "Imperial Forum", in which the museums would have been a part of. Not least by the death of Semper in 1879 came the Imperial Forum not as planned for execution, the two museums were built, however.
Construction of the two museums began without ceremony on 27 November 1871 instead. Semper moved to Vienna in the sequence. From the beginning, there were considerable personal differences between him and Hasenauer, who finally in 1877 took over sole construction management. 1874, the scaffolds were placed up to the attic and the first floor completed, built in 1878, the first windows installed in 1879, the Attica and the balustrade from 1880 to 1881 and built the dome and the Tabernacle. The dome is topped with a bronze statue of Pallas Athena by Johannes Benk.
The lighting and air conditioning concept with double glazing of the ceilings made the renunciation of artificial light (especially at that time, as gas light) possible, but this resulted due to seasonal variations depending on daylight to different opening times .

The Kunsthistorisches Museum was on 17 October 1891 officially opened by Emperor Franz Joseph I. Since 22 October 1891 , the museum is accessible to the public. Two years earlier, on 3 November 1889, the collection of arms, Arms and Armour today, had their doors open. On 1 January 1890 the library service resumed its operations. The merger and listing of other collections of the Highest Imperial Family from the Upper and Lower Belvedere, the Hofburg Palace and Ambras in Tyrol will need another two years.
189, the farm museum was organized in seven collections with three directorates:
Directorate of coins, medals and antiquities collection
The Egyptian Collection
The Antique Collection
The coins and medals collection
Management of the collection of weapons, art and industrial objects
Weapons collection
Collection of industrial art objects
Directorate of Art Gallery and Restaurieranstalt (Restoration Office)
Collection of watercolors, drawings, sketches, etc.
Restoration Office
Library
Very soon the room the Court Museum (Hofmuseum) for the imperial collections was offering became too narrow. To provide temporary help, an exhibition of ancient artifacts from Ephesus in the Theseus Temple was designed. However, additional space had to be rented in the Lower Belvedere.
1914, after the assassination of Franz Ferdinand, heir to the throne, his " Estonian Forensic Collection " passed to the administration of the Court Museum. This collection, which emerged from the art collection of the house of d' Este and world travel collection of Franz Ferdinand, was placed in the New Imperial Palace since 1908. For these stocks, the present collection of old musical instruments and the Museum of Ethnology emerged.
The First World War went by, apart from the oppressive economic situation without loss. The farm museum remained during the five years of war regularly open to the public.
Until 1919 the K.K. Art Historical Court Museum was under the authority of the Oberstkämmereramt (head chamberlain office) and belonged to the House of Habsburg-Lorraine. The officials and employees were part of the royal household.
First Republic
The transition from monarchy to republic, in the museum took place in complete tranquility. On 19 November 1918 the two imperial museums on Maria Theresa Square were placed under the state protection of the young Republic of German Austria. Threatening to the stocks of the museum were the claims raised in the following weeks and months of the "successor states" of the monarchy as well as Italy and Belgium on Austrian art collection. In fact, it came on 12th February 1919 to the violent removal of 62 paintings by armed Italian units. This "art theft" left a long time trauma among curators and art historians.
It was not until the Treaty of Saint-Germain of 10 September 1919, providing in Article 195 and 196 the settlement of rights in the cultural field by negotiations. The claims of Belgium, Czechoslovakia, and Italy again could mostly being averted in this way. Only Hungary, which presented the greatest demands by far, was met by more than ten years of negotiation in 147 cases.
On 3 April 1919 was the expropriation of the House of Habsburg-Lorraine by law and the acquisition of its property, including the "Collections of the Imperial House" , by the Republic. Of 18 June 1920 the then provisional administration of the former imperial museums and collections of Este and the secular and clergy treasury passed to the State Office of Internal Affairs and Education, since 10 November 1920, the Federal Ministry of the Interior and Education. A few days later it was renamed the Art History Court Museum in the "Kunsthistorisches Museum, Vienna State", 1921 "Kunsthistorisches Museum" . Of 1st January 1921 the employees of the museum staff passed to the state of the Republic.
Through the acquisition of the former imperial collections owned by the state, the museum found itself in a complete new situation. In order to meet the changed circumstances in the museum area, designed Hans Tietze in 1919 the "Vienna Museum program". It provided a close cooperation between the individual museums to focus at different houses on main collections. So dominated exchange, sales and equalizing the acquisition policy in the interwar period. Thus resulting until today still valid collection trends. Also pointing the way was the relocation of the weapons collection from 1934 in its present premises in the New Castle, where since 1916 the collection of ancient musical instruments was placed.
With the change of the imperial collections in the ownership of the Republic the reorganization of the internal organization went hand in hand, too. Thus the museum was divided in 1919 into the Egyptian and Near Eastern Collection (with the Oriental coins)
Collection of Classical Antiquities
Collection of ancient coins
Collection of modern coins and medals
Weapons collection
Collection of sculptures and crafts with the Collection of Ancient Musical Instruments

The Museum 1938-1945
Count Philipp Ludwig Wenzel Sinzendorf according to Rigaud. Clarisse 1948 by Baroness de Rothschildt "dedicated" to the memory of Baron Alphonse de Rothschildt; restituted to the Rothschilds in 1999, and in 1999 donated by Bettina Looram Rothschild, the last Austrian heiress.
With the "Anschluss" of Austria to the German Reich all Jewish art collections such as the Rothschilds were forcibly "Aryanised". Collections were either "paid" or simply distributed by the Gestapo at the museums. This resulted in a significant increase in stocks. But the KHM was not the only museum that benefited from the linearization. Systematically looted Jewish property was sold to museums, collections or in pawnshops throughout the empire.
After the war, the museum struggled to reimburse the "Aryanised" art to the owners or their heirs. They forced the Rothschild family to leave the most important part of their own collection to the museum and called this "dedications", or "donations". As a reason, was the export law stated, which does not allow owners to perform certain works of art out of the country. Similar methods were used with other former owners. Only on the basis of international diplomatic and media pressure, to a large extent from the United States, the Austrian government decided to make a change in the law (Art Restitution Act of 1998, the so-called Lex Rothschild). The art objects were the Rothschild family refunded only in the 1990s.
The Kunsthistorisches Museum operates on the basis of the federal law on the restitution of art objects from the 4th December 1998 (Federal Law Gazette I, 181 /1998) extensive provenance research. Even before this decree was carried out in-house provenance research at the initiative of the then archive director Herbert Haupt. This was submitted in 1998 by him in collaboration with Lydia Grobl a comprehensive presentation of the facts about the changes in the inventory levels of the Kunsthistorisches Museum during the Nazi era and in the years leading up to the State Treaty of 1955, an important basis for further research provenance.
The two historians Susanne Hehenberger and Monika Löscher are since 1st April 2009 as provenance researchers at the Kunsthistorisches Museum on behalf of the Commission for Provenance Research operating and they deal with the investigation period from 1933 to the recent past.
The museum today
Today the museum is as a federal museum, with 1st January 1999 released to the full legal capacity - it was thus the first of the state museums of Austria, implementing the far-reaching self-financing. It is by far the most visited museum in Austria with 1.3 million visitors (2007).
The Kunsthistorisches Museum is under the name Kunsthistorisches Museum and Museum of Ethnology and the Austrian Theatre Museum with company number 182081t since 11 June 1999 as a research institution under public law of the Federal virtue of the Federal Museums Act, Federal Law Gazette I/115/1998 and the Museum of Procedure of the Kunsthistorisches Museum and Museum of Ethnology and the Austrian Theatre Museum, 3 January 2001, BGBl II 2/ 2001, in force since 1 January 2001, registered.
In fiscal 2008, the turnover was 37.185 million EUR and total assets amounted to EUR 22.204 million. In 2008 an average of 410 workers were employed.

Sama Ritual (Sufi Whirling)
Bursa, Republic of Turkey.
Sufi whirling (or Sufi spinning) is a form of Sama or physically active meditation which originated among Sufis, and which is still practiced by the Sufi Dervishes of the Mevlevi order. It is a customary dance performed within the Sema, or worship ceremony, through which dervishes (also called semazens) aim to reach the source of all perfection, or kemal. This is sought through abandoning one's nafs, egos or personal desires, by listening to the music, focusing on God, and spinning one's body in repetitive circles, which has been seen as a symbolic imitation of planets in the Solar System orbiting the sun.
As explained by Sufis:
In the symbolism of the Sema ritual, the semazen's camel's hair hat (sikke) represents the tombstone of the ego; his wide, white skirt represents the ego's shroud. By removing his black cloak, he is spiritually reborn to the truth. At the beginning of the Sema, by holding his arms crosswise, the semazen appears to represent the number one, thus testifying to God's unity. While whirling, his arms are open: his right arm is directed to the sky, ready to receive God's beneficence; his left hand, upon which his eyes are fastened, is turned toward the earth. The semazen conveys God's spiritual gift to those who are witnessing the Sema. Revolving from right to left around the heart, the semazen embraces all humanity with love. The human being has been created with love in order to love. Mevlâna Jalâluddîn Rumi says, "All loves are a bridge to Divine love. Yet, those who have not had a taste of it do not know!"

Dr.Mihir Kumar Panda, an Educational, Societal and Scientific Innovator has established an NGO 'SROSTI' at Bahanaga, Balasore,Odisha,India
Dr. panda has innovated/invented more than 10,000 (ten thousand) teaching aids and different innovations and he has more than 30,000 (Thirty thousand) ideas to make scientific and mathematical models.
His creations are very essential guide for school and college science exhibitions, innovative learning and play way method for the teachers and students, science activists, innovators, craftsmen, farmers, masons, physically challenged persons, common men, entrepreneurs and industrialists.
He is popularizing science through song, innovative demonstrations and motivational speech since 1990 in different parts of Odisha state without taking any fees.
Dr. Panda is an extreme motivational speaker in science and possess magical scientific demonstration and a crowd puller.

Dr. Panda is an Educationist, an environmentalist, a poet for science popularization, a good orator, a best resource person to train others in specific field of science and engineering.
The uniqueness of Simple Innovation and scientific activities and achievements ofDr. Panda can not be assessed without visiting his laboratory which is a living wonder in the realm of science.
From a small cake cutter to mechanical scissor, from a play pump to rickshaw operated food grain spreader and from a village refrigerator to a multi-purpose machine, thousands of such inventions and innovations are proof of Dr. Panda's brilliance.
From a tube well operated washing machine to weight sensitive food grain separator, from a password protected wardrobe to automatic screen, from a Dual face fan to electricity producing fan are example of few thousands of innovations and inventions of Mihir Kumar Panda.
Dr.Mihir Kumar Panda though bestowed to a popular name as Einstein of Odisha is obliviously treated as Thomas Alva Edison of India.
Dr. Panda's residential house also resembles a museum with scientific innovations of different shapes and sizes stacked in every nook and cranny which proves his scientific involvement in personal life.
Innovator Panda believes that , the best thing a child can do with a toy to break it. he also believes that by Educating child in his/her choice subject/ passion a progressive nation can be built.
The shelf made scientist Dr. Panda believes that Education is a life long process whose scope is far greater than school curriculum. The moulding of models/ innovations done by hand always better than the things heard and the facts incorporated in the books.
With no agricultural background, Dr. Panda has developed unique natural bonsai in his Vijnana Bana Ashram which also shows path for earning just by uprooting and nurturing the plants which are found to be small and thumb in nature.
Dr. Panda's Scientific Endeavour and research is no doubt praise worthy. One cannot but believe his dedicated effort in simple innovation laboratory.
Social service, innovation/ inventions, writing, free technology to students for preparation of science exhibition projects, free technology to common men for their sustainability, preparation of big natural bonsai, technology for entrepreneurs and industrialists for innovative item are few works of Mihir Kumar Panda after his Government service.
. To overcome the difficulties of science and math, explanation in classes, innovator Panda has created few thousands of educational, societal and scientific innovations which helps teachers and students of the country and abroad.
Dr. Panda believes that though inventions/innovation has reached under thousands and thousands deep in the sea and high up in the space. It has reached on moon and mars, but unfortunately the sustainable inventions/innovation has not properly gone to the tiny tots and common people.
Dr. Panda is amazing and wizard of innovations and works with a principle the real scientist is he, who sees the things simply and works high.

It's almost physically painful for me to look at this phone booth, remember the days when they were still in use, and know they're gone forever, along with so much else.

The chaff blows away in the breeze; the grains fall back in the basket. It's skilled work, and physically demanding.
The family spends hours a day pounding millet to make sazda, their staple porridge. I didn’t understand why they would literally be using stone-age technology to prepare their millet -- surely a mechanical mill would be far easier, & couldn’t possibly be that expensive. After all, people have had millstones for millenia. I asked the guide, but didn’t really get a very satisfying explanation. A little digging turned up a paper that answered exactly that question: www.researchgate.net/publication/310626891. The research was done at a village elsewhere in Zimbabwe; there were a few cultural differences (notably, there only women and children pound millet, whereas here the men can take a turn), but the overall setup seems very similar. TL;DR:
1.There is a miller, & some people do use his services — especially those who are too old or infirm to pound the millet themselves. People are also more likely to take advantage in years when there is a bumper crop and they’re not worried about waste. A mill can dehull in 5 or 10 minutes what takes 2 to 5 hours by hand-pounding and winnowing. But these are spread-out rural villages; a woman may have to walk a couple of kilometers to the miller, or travel by bus up to 10 km, carrying a bucket of grain big enough to feed her family for a couple of weeks. Then, since she has all she can carry with the one bucket of meal, she can’t carry back the separate bucket of bran that they normally feed to the chickens, so that goes to waste from the family’s point of view.
2.There is, ideally, a processing step in between dehulling the grain and grinding it, in which the grain is either soaked or baked, and so the woman would actually have to travel to the miller twice for each batch. Either that or skip the processing step, which results in the meal being bitter.
3.The mechanical mill removes more material, resulting in wastage: skilled hand pounding and winnowing removes about 1/5 of the volume as bran, whereas the mill removes about 2/5. Milling sacrifices not only calories from lost endosperm, but also nutrition from lost germ and fiber.
4.It costs on the order of $0.50 for 2 weeks’ worth of dehulling plus grinding. Millers routinely have to impound meal from families who can’t pay, or release it on credit and risk having to write it off.

Our Journey of Discovery Russia 1989
It was the 17th March 1989 St Patrick’s Day and I was looking forward to my second trip to Russia, I had previously gone with my construction’s studies class in Bolton Street Collage in 1986 while serving my time as an apprentice carpenter and joiner.
My dad or da Patrick Jackson was a large figure both physically and to be in the presence off. He was 60 years of age and as a family of ten we asked him what he would like for his birthday and he responded I would like to go to Russia. So, we all chipped in and bought him his ticket but he could not go on his won so I went along with him.
We left Dublin on what I can only say looked like the oldest Aircraft in the world. It was an illusion Aeroflot Aircraft staffed by a crew who certainly never went to Charm School, my dad asked if we could have the seat next to the emergency exit (MORE LEG ROOM HE SAID) so we got those seats.
The flight was full with Trinity College Dublin students and obviously lots of Irish people. When in flight we nearly died of fright the air conditioning was all feeding a gas like substance into the cabin of the aircraft. We were told don’t worry. We had a double problem the door seal well wasn’t fully sealed resulting in a thick layer of ice forming inside the plane. Well, what my dad didn’t say could never be
printed. The food was horrific in the plane something that was to resonate in our trip after our arrival.
The plane after two and three quarters hours came to land in St Petersburg as the plan descended the thick ice that had formed in flight with the doggy door seal started to thaw much to the consternation of my dad the staff got us blankets to stop the water droplets leaving us soaking wet. We got to St. Petersburg and got on the wrong bus leaving us 20 Km from the hotel we were staying in you see we followed the TCD students who were staying in the very opposite side of the city. After haggling and buying army medals and hats we did not want the bus brought us to our hotel in the dark of night.
We had three great days travelling around St. Petersburg, seeing the sights, we were told we must change our Dollars or Sterling in the official Bureau DE Change but my dad soon found out you could get 5 or 6 times a better rate on the black market everyone and I mean everyone was trying to barter for something we had or the thought we had. The tour guides were great but were very cautious as the old communist system was coming to an end, but the state watched everyone. The food was very basic well it was so basic we only had a hard black bread and white shelled eggs for breakfast and a type of
carbonated pear juice to drink, meat was almost not existent and if you knew my dad, he loved his meat and veg.
The first few days passed quickly and we were travelling again on the overnight train from St Petersburg to Moscow 8 hours that included a sleeping compartment there was 34 people in the Irish groups and the tour guide said the train compartment took groups of 4 well in a flash my dad said we will take the compartment with the odd 2 ie 8X 4=32+2 I said to my dad I hope you know this train looks full and strangers will be sharing with us. NO no not at all my dad said. Well, I regret I was right we were shown our compartment and there were 4 of the smallest beds I have ever seen after a few minutes two Russian’s entered our compartment a very large lady and her new husband who worked in the Salam factory and were going to Moscow for their honeymoon. My dad took the bottom bunk and the lady took the other leaving her husband and myself with the 2 small top bunks.
We tried to converse and after a few minutes the lady started to undress in front of us in this tiny compartment my father let a roar get out of here. So here we are speeding through the night towards Moscow freezing cold outside. After approximately 30 minutes my dad was just too tired so he went to the compartment and got some sleep. We had a little stash of chocolate that we brought with us and we shared some with this Russian couple.
Moscow was a grim place then all the majority of that Soviet type building functionality was the order of the day. We stayed in a huge hotel 3000 rooms built for the 1980 Olympic games. Which as you may remember was boycotted by the West because of the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan everything was basic food, transport, tours but it was great fun and you met the most unusual people on those trips.
The shops were devoid of any real goods we wanted however you could buy unusual things like LP’s of Classical music for approx. 10p each, Maps of the World in Russian 2p and Russian dolls were all the rage. The Russian’s were looking for anything from the West, Jeans T Shirts, Jumpers etc. We went shopping one day To the sum Dept Store in Red Square this huge store with thousands of staff many unnecessary but this was Soviet Russia. My dad tried to skip a queue to buy a clock for my late mother well the shouts of those in the queue let it be known he had skipped the queue and he was then out of the queue. He bought 3 suits they were XXL and made in Russia they were well made and cost £8.00 each a fantastic price something my dad marvelled at however when he tried to put them on in the hotel they were sized very differently and as my dad said they were only boy’s sizes.
We travelled to the state Circus on one of the evenings it was great but we were told it was impossible to get home due to numbers when leaving the venue. The taxi driver wanted say 20 roubles which was £2.00 but my dad said if you bring us home afterwards, we will give you 200 roubles this ensured we would get back to our hotel I can still remember this Taxi Driver shouting to get our attention after the Circus Show bring us back to our Hotel in his Lada Taxi.
The trip ended all too soon but upon returning to Ireland my dad who worked in Newry at the time exchanged the three suits in Louis Boyd Store Menswear for £100 and three Peter England Shirts. My dad often marvelled if you had a van, you could make a fortune bringing a whole load of suits over to Ireland. My dad loved travel and following my mothers passing in 1999 I took him to many places Italy, Spain, USA etc. There was never a dull moment with my dad ask anyone who know him or his family.
My dad retired from work in 2005 at the age of 77 years as a clerk of works and general foreman in construction. He was so proud of his children but particularly proud of my wife Veronica and I when I was elected Lord Mayor of Dublin in 2006.
He was so delighted to have the sapper for the bollards in front of the Mansion House. When he arrived, he kept his hand on the door bell
until it was answered. The highlight for him was the trip in the Lord Mayor’s carriage to the Horse Show.
We took him on holidays in 2009 to Spain, while we were there, he complained that he was finding it hard to swallow upon our return to Ireland he went to his Dr. O Sullivan on Le Fanu Road and he was referred to St. James Hospital.
I got a phone call to call down to St James Hospital as my Dad had me down as his next of Kin upon arrival I knew something was wrong the consultant told me he was sure it was stomach cancer after tests it was confirmed and despite treatment, he left us on the 9th May 2011. His only fear of death was if he would be in pain. He left his beloved home of 38 Drumfinn Ave on the 8th May and passed away on the 9th in Our Lady Hospice Harold Cross. He loved the horse racing and on the Saturday morning before he passed away, he said to me God son I hope to god there is horse racing in haven if there’s not I am going to be bored. I assured him there would be lots to do and see particularly my late mam.
In closing four weeks before my dad died, he needed his driving licence renewed. He went as I told him to Specsavers, He came back giving out the glasses were 390 Euro god what did you buy I just got
new glasses. Unknown to my dad he had bought Hugo boss designed glasses.
As he left us on the 9th May 2011 on that awesome journey, we will all make one day. I left the new Hugo Boss glasses and passport with him for his last journey.
Fr Seamus Ryan PP of St Mathews Church once said to me those we love only die when we stop talking of them so folks talk fondly of your loved ones you can animate so many conversations with the stories of yesterday.

Vincent……..
Today I decided to experiment with my Voigtländer 15mm lens and as a result I discovered a spot on my sensor and I have been unable to remove it … I can’t even physically see it. I have examined some of my earlier photographs and have discovered that the spot has been there for months.
To be honest I am finding it difficult to use this lens, especially wide-open, because it is a manual focus lens. Some photographs have a lot of distortion especially when the camera is angled.
The Voigtländer 15mm 4.5 Super Wide Heliar E aspherical III is the first native E-Mount lens by Voigtlander. There are a few more on the way.

Life has been very busy for us lately. Busy physically, emotionally, professionally, mentally, spiritually.
I got up early this morning to get out and deliberately take some photos. I stopped at a natural wildflower transition area. Then I took a walk on "The Badlands" trail in Miami Whitewater woods.
When I started the trail, I was passed by a very serious runner who was running the trail. That was very inspiring and charged me emotionally to see someone push themselves to the level he was.
While on the trail, I was alone with the exception of the energy of nature. I could hear birds, I saw deer, I even ran into a pair of wild turkeys - unfortunately, the deer was too fast for me and the turkeys were out of camera range. :-(
It was pleasant to know the only technology within my immediate vicinity was my camera.
I got home, feeling very much recharged from my walk.
I need more greenspace in my life.
