Cerita dongeng = Lagendary story....

 

Although it has not been launching, but it will become obsolete soon. The reason is it is still not precise enough. But the beauty of such sketch is it can let the audience understand better and faster if we compare this methodology with old traditional way of communication approach. It is still suitable enough if we channel it for our kindergarten kids, junior school & young learners at least via the games industries, comic and so on industries. Millions of people do not know even how our world and universal scene looks like, this includes me. If we do not understand roughly how it looks like even, the consequence of this simple concept is people may hardly understand how these molecules or viruses may appear around us.

 

As such without knowing the rough actual universal situation, I can not imagine how people may understand further this global climate can influent or become a major impact for each of us, our life, our happiness and every generation some more. Can they believe further all the lessons taught by the teachers in the schools?

 

If we do not try to reduce such problems, what consequences we may face then? I guess, human beings keep working and paying the bills, gaining a thoroughly tiring body everyday such as feel dizzy after visiting the hypermarkets, sleepy in the train, suffocated in high humidity area before we can have little life and happiness left.

 

Are these things all of us wanted in our life journey?

 

For those who do not alert enough about the hygienic requirements, they may tend to be trapped with certain disease easily based on " Nothing Comes From Nothing " principle.

 

What barriers are there now??

1. Information in put and output clarity problem??

2. Communication or language problem???

3. Legacy matters? Intelligibility problem?

4. The Universe problems are too complicated; it is totally beyond human beings control? We have to live as it is?

 

We are really thankful for all our world leaders who keep taking care of our countries and the world either partially or as a whole for such revolutionary transition. They keep challenging to educate and alert us, as the citizens on how and why global climate change.

 

How it changes, why it changes, how the global environment affects us. Isn't it good enough if we share further on how our universe and molecules look like further and how they affect us & our body instantly? We keep breathing thousands of molecules gas into our body every second? May be thousand of viruses as well... I can prove you further the content of the gas; trust me, in my coming soon slide. Is our air clean and safe enough?

 

Similarly we also eat everyday ....... no problem at all?

 

Deal or No Deal

 

What are our kids’ demands? How deep knowledge they can absorb?

What our whole world people expect to see?

 

Can we live well with obsolete kind of art, knowledge and technologies??? Is it risky enough if we persist so? What if we combine both of the old and new kind of information input? Won't it become better?

 

Can the truthful knowledge win people's heart steadily? I guess it will be accepted sooner or later. Our people become more and more educated; as such our people become more and more smart, they prefer to see realistic and truthful kind of information. They know well how to distinguish between the good one and the fake one. Normally good and genuine people will be very daring to prove their products with full facts. Otherwise, our audience will not spend time seeing our show or art at all. The main reason is they have limited budget in the pocket and limited time as well.

 

If they never support our presentation, can you expect them to buy our product in the near future then?

 

They can support sometimes just because they want to relax their mind, entertain their soul or hopefully they will spend their time helping them someday if possible. But in actual facts, they may either tease it or reject to accept so if they are able to see and access too many other options around the world.

 

What is our fate??? Does our God know? Can anyone help???

 

Can we live well in this competitive world?

很看不顺眼吗???。。。。有点生气???。。。可是谁来保护我们的地球, 谁来主持公道呢???也许是事实。。不然,您,我,我们的下一代也难保可长命百岁。。。愿您也来参与吧。。。

只要各民族可以打开心胸的深入沟通、互相研究、开发与支持;不但可以加入更加多的元素,提升文化制作水准;深信更加稳定掌控媒体的市场。

所谓终生学习,世上也许没有最圆满的境界。因为,美术是没有止境,也没有局限。。可是只要跟得上时代的潮流,带出最真诚有利的信息;生产出人们爱追求的产品,肯定能百战百胜。当然,要达到这个境界,必需牵涉到很多人脉。

Prora, Island of Rügen, Germany

 

Prora followed a very precise layout of initially 80 individual stairway blocks, all connected to the main entrance. This would give Prora a total length of roughly 6km along the Prorer Wiek beachfront. Every single room measure exactly 2.5m x 5m, some of them had connection doors for families. Prora could thus accommodate 20’000 visitors at once. Today unfortunately the majority of the blocks are no longer accessible to visitors, although some investors now do restore some sections to offer high-end flats to wealthy customers.

 

It was on a mid-week late afternoon when I walked pass the South Section of Prora.

The exposure was made off the wall on the first building. It was hazy due to high clouds and I used a yellow filter to give a bit more contrast to the scenery. The light post and the wall section to the left were kept purposely to give the viewer a better feeling of the length of the building, the last stairway block to the far right is approx. 500m away.

 

Prora remains today the longest housing building ever build on planet earth, this despite the fact that only half of it was eventually achieved. If you ever have the opportunity to visit Prora, don’t hesitate to do so, you will be in for a real treat.

  

Technical Data

The Horsehead nebula in Hydrogen-alpha

 

Astrophotography is a complex process combing optics, precise mechanical pointing & tracking, real-time guiding corrections, field derotation, environmental, and sequencing through multiple pieces of equipment that all need to “talk” to each other to automate the 66 exposure frames that were obtained here. Small corrections in focus need to be made as temperatures change, small errors in tracking are corrected using a second telescope and camera that counters the mechanical equipment limitations to keep it at level of seeing that the atmosphere allows.; periodic small adjustments in tracking, called dithering, are made to average out sensor issues that could later be mistaken for signal, then finally calibration frames are taken using a special light panel of perfectly uniform illumination…this is all done remotely and robotically controlled by a computer mounted with the scope communicating with my computer at home. My telescope could be in my backyard or halfway across the world.

 

After collecting the data frames called “light frames” those 66 44MB images are added together in a process called stacking. This registers, normalizes, calibrates, aligns and adds the data signal while keeping the noise as low as possible, it also normalizes gradients and artifacts due to the optics as well as light pollution. …the final preprocessed image is essentially a uniform blank gray single image about 250GB in size with no stars or nebula visible!

The post processing next takes this image and pulls or stretches the signal from the background noise (dark sky sensor dark current) makes two images: one with the stars removed and one with the stars. Those two are processed separately using different techniques to enhance the extremely dim nebula signal from the noise. Then eliminate more noise and enhance sharpness of the fine details. Finally the two Star field and nebula images are recombined in the single image you see.

Just three decades ago équipement and processing of this level were only available in professional research grade equipment costing millions of dollars. Of late, advances in signal processing software, consumer available astronomy camera grade sensors and computing power have allowed amateur astronomers to rival the best science images of only a decade before. And the cost and relative ease of entry to excellent astrophotography just over the last couple of years has decreased immensely allowing even novice astronomers with zero knowledge to press a couple power buttons and the scope, mount and software can automagically produce images that are really pretty good…all controlled on your telephone!!!

 

My setup is fully robotic and fully remote controlled of high end equipment designed for wide-field targets that are large and extremely dim deep space objects like nebula, star clusters and nearby galaxy clusters. As you may be able to tell it is a complex system of different equipment and software that all must to talk to each other perfectly throughout an evening(s) of imaging. So while the equipment does it thing outside in the cold or buggy heat, I can be cozy, warm and bug free away at home or sleeping. I even get warning alarms if something goes wrong (weather, clouds, dawn light or numerous other equipment issues) so if not automatically corrected that I can correct it remotely or physically need to check on the equipment. However failures are rare. While this project only involved less than a terabyte of data, some projects can collect 4+TB of data which must be off loaded remotely from the scope side SSD drives to a remote raid server.

Image Frames

Integration time: 1hr 6min (66x60sec) Hα

Calibrations: flats and bias only

Pallet: H-alpha only

 

This was a fairly simple project as it involved only one Hα filter over a single evening of imaging with relatively short 60 second exposures. I can image more data with different filters and add that to the original data at a later time…

 

Color images however can take multiple evenings, weeks or years to collect hundreds of 3-5 minute HOS narrowband filter (Hydrogen-alpha, oxygen-III, and Sulfur-II) exposures as well as wideband short exposures of LRGB (luminence, red, blue, and green wide band pass filters) using 6 different filters for the camera. Total integration times (total exposure time) can easily be 40+hours involving thousands of light and calibration frames and multiple terabytes of data. The processing of the final image can take hours to days. So why not just use a color camera (called an “OSC” one shot color) instead of a monochrome sensor? Easy: monochrome sensors are superior and much more sensitive than OSC color cameras that must use a Bayer filter and collect only ¼ of the photons per pixel that a monochrome sensor can over the same amount of exposure time. Color cameras introduce more noise in the signal and further complicate the tracking/guiding errors due to the need for longer exposures. Plus color cameras just plain suck with color calibration and getting star colors those jeweled and bright objects that they are from the blue giants to the deep red carbon stars to all the colors in between. Also false color images are very easy to compose with a monochrome sensor!

 

Hope you enjoy the beauty of the invisible evening sky as much as I enjoy revealing it!!

 

Warangal Fort, in the present-day Indian state of Telangana, appears to have existed since at least the 13th century CE. Although precise dating of its construction and subsequent enhancements are uncertain, historians and archaeologists generally accept that an earlier brick-walled structure was replaced with stone by Ganapatideva, who died in 1262, and that his successors – Rudramadevi and Prataparudra II – added to its height and added gateways, square bastions and additional circular earthern walls prior to the latter's death in 1323. This places the construction towards the end of the Kakatiya period. There were later modifications between the 15th and 17th centuries, comprising principally the addition of barbicans to the four gates in the stone wall and the creation of gates in the outer earthern wall.

 

Remnants of the structure can be seen today near to the town of Warangal, which was the Kakatiya capital. The Archaeological Survey of India has listed the remains as a Monument of National Importance.

_____________________________

 

The 12th and the 13th centuries saw the emergence of the Kakatiyas. They were at first the feudatories of the Western Chalukyas of Kalyana, ruling over a small territory near Warangal. A ruler of this dynasty, Prola II, who ruled from A.D.1110 to 1158, extended his sway to the south and declared his independence. His successor Rudra (A.D.1158--1195) pushed the kingdom to the north up to the Godavari delta. He built a fort at Warangal to serve as a second capital and faced the invasions of the Yadavas of Devagiri. The next ruler Mahadeva extended the kingdom to the coastal area. In A.D.1199, Ganapati succeeded him. He was the greatest of the Kakatiyas and the first after the Satavahanas to bring the entire Telugu area under one rule. He put an end to the rule of the Velanati Cholas in A.D.1210. He forced the Telugu Cholas of Vikramasimhapura to accept his suzerainty. He established order in his vast dominion and encouraged trade.

 

As Ganapati Deva had no sons, his daughter Rudramba succeeded him in A.D.1262 and carried on the administration. Some generals, who did not like to be ruled by her, rebelled. She could, however, suppress the internal rebellions and external invasions with the help of loyal subordinates. The Cholas and the Yadavas suffered such set backs at her hands that they did not think of troubling her for the rest of her rule.

 

Prataparudra succeeded his grandmother Rudramba in A.D.1295 and ruled till A.D.1323. He pushed the western border of his kingdom up to Raichur. He introduced many administrative reforms. He divided the kingdom into 75 Nayakships, which was later adopted and developed by the Rayas of Vijayanagara. In his time the territory constituting Andhra Pradesh had the first experience of a Muslim invasion. In A.D.1303, the Delhi Sultan Ala-ud-din Khilji sent an army to plunder the kingdom. But Prataparudra defeated them at Upparapalli in Karimnagar district. In A.D. 1310, when another army under Malik Kafur invaded Warangal, Prataparudra yielded and agreed to pay a large tribute. In A.D.1318, when Ala-ud-din Khilji died, Prataparudra withheld the tribute. It provoked another invasion of the Muslims. In A.D.1321, Ghiaz-ud-din Tughlaq sent a large army under Ulugh Khan to conquer the Telugu country then called Tilling. He laid siege to Warangal, but owing to internal dissensions he called off the siege and returned to Delhi. Within a short period, he came back with a much bigger army. In spite of unpreparedness, Prataparudra fought bravely. For want of supplies, he surrendered to the enemy who sent him to Delhi as a prisoner, and he died on the way. Thus ended the Kakatiya rule, opening the gates of the Telugu land to anarchy and confusion yielding place to an alien ruler.

 

The Kakatiya period was rightly called the brightest period of the Telugu history. The entire Telugu speaking area was under the kings who spoke Telugu and encouraged Telugu. They established order throughout the strife torn land and the forts built by them played a dominant role in the defence of the realm. Anumakonda and Gandikota among the `giridurgas', Kandur and Narayanavanam among the `vanadurgas', Divi and Kolanu among the `jaladurgas', and Warangal and Dharanikota among the `sthaladurgas' were reckoned as the most famous strongholds in the Kakatiya period. The administration of the kingdom was organized with accent on the military.

 

Though Saivism continued to be the religion of the masses, intellectuals favoured revival of Vedic rituals. They sought to reconcile the Vaishnavites and the Saivites through the worship of Harihara. Arts and literature found patrons in the Kakatiyas and their feudatories.

Laser Eye Surgery Cost

  

Laser Eye Surgery Involves The Precise Reshaping Of The Cornea, The Transparent Window That Covers The Coloured Part Of The Eye. For Treatment To Be Permanent, It Must Take Place Beneath The Thin, Protective Outer Layer. This Layer Is Gently Moved Aside In Order To Let The Laser Do Its Work.

 

If You're Looking For An Alternative Option To Glasses Or Contact Lenses, Laser Eye Surgery Could Be The Ideal Solution. Laser Eye Surgery Is An Eye Treatment That Has Given Millions Of People Freedom From The Need To Wear Glasses And Contact Lenses.

 

There Are Three Fundamental Types Of Laser Eye Treatment: PRK, LASIK And LASEK. They Differ Only In The Way The Eye Is Prepared For Treatment. The Actual Re-Shaping Process Is Exactly The Same All Cases.

 

Laser Eye Surgery Guide

 

This Is The Complete Guide To Laser Eye Surgery. If You Are Thinking About Having Vision Correction Surgery Or Want To Know More About Any Of The Techniques Used Then This Is The Site For You. Laser Eye Surgery Is A Safe And Effective Method Of Correcting Visual Problems, Often Removing The Constant Need For Glasses. Our Guide To Laser Eye Surgery Aims To Cover All Your Questions, From What The Procedure For Laser Eye Surgery Involves, The Risks, The Benefis And The Different Types Of Laser Eye Surgery.

 

There Are 2 Main Methods Of Laser Eye Surgery Used Today : -

 

1. LASIK Laser Eye Surgery

2. PRK Laser Eye Surgery

 

The Major Difference Between The Two Surgeries Is The Way That The Stroma, The Middle Layer Of The Cornea, Is Exposed Before It Is Vaporized With The Laser. In PRK, The Top Layer Of The Cornea, Called The Epithelium, Is Scraped Away To Expose The Stromal Layer Underneath. In LASIK, A Flap Is Cut In The Stromal Layer And The Flap Is Folded Back.

 

This Guide Provides An Overview Of Laser Eye Surgery, Including Possible Complications Of Treatment.

 

Laser Eye Surgery Risks And Complications

 

The Risks Outlined Below Apply To Both PRK And LASIK Procedures. The Chances Of Having A Serious Vision-Threatening Complication Are Minimal.Infection And Delayed Healing: There Is About A 0.1 Percent Chance Of The Cornea Becoming Infected After PRK, And A Somewhat Smaller Chance After LASIK. Generally, This Means Added Discomfort And A Delay In Healing, With No Long-Term Effects Within A Period Of Four Years.

 

Undercorrection/Overcorrection: It Is Not Possible To Predict Perfectly How Your Eye Will Respond To Laser Surgery. As A Result, You May Still Need Corrective Lenses After The Procedure To Obtain Good Vision. In Some Cases, A Second Procedure Can Be Done To Improve The Result.

 

Decrease In Best-Corrected Vision: After Refractive Surgery, Some Patients Find That Their Best Obtainable Vision With Corrective Lenses Is Worse Than It Was Before The Surgery. This Can Occur As A Result Of Irregular Tissue Removal Or The Development Of Corneal Haze.

 

Excessive Corneal Haze: Corneal Haze Occurs As Part Of The Normal Healing Process After PRK. In Most Cases, It Has Little Or No Effect On The Final Vision And Can Only Be Seen By An Eye Doctor With A Microscope. However, There Are Some Cases Of Excessive Haze That Interferes With Vision. As With Undercorrections, This Can Often Be Dealt With By Means Of An Additional Laser Treatment. The Risk Of Significant Haze Is Much Less With LASIK Than With PRK.

 

Regression: In Some Patients The Effect Of Refractive Surgery Is Gradually Lost Over Several Months. This Is Like An Undercorrection, And A Re-Treatment Is Often Feasible.

 

Halo Effect: The Halo Effect Is An Optical Effect That Is Noticed In Dim Light. As The Pupil Enlarges, A Second Faded Image Is Produced By The Untreated Peripheral Cornea. For Some Patients Who Have Undergone PRK Or LASIK, This Effect Can Interfere With Night Driving.

 

Incomplete Procedure: Equipment Malfunction May Require The Procedure To Be Stopped Before Completion. This Is A More Significant Factor In LASIK, With Its Higher Degree Of Complexity, Than In PRK.

 

Problems With A Perfect Procedure: Even When Everything Goes Perfectly, There Are Effects That Might Cause Some Dissatisfaction. Older Patients Should Be Aware That They Can't Have Both Good Distance Vision And Good Near Vision In The Same Eye Without Corrective Lenses.

 

Common Symptoms After Laser Eye Surgery

 

Pain Or Discomfort

 

Immediately After The Procedure, Your Eye May Burn, Itch, Or Feel Like There Is Something In It. You May Experience Some Discomfort, Or In Some Cases, Mild Pain And Your Doctor May Suggest You Take A Mild Pain Reliever.

 

Blurred Or Hazy Vision

 

Your Vision Will Probably Be Hazy Or Blurry. You Will Instinctively Want To Rub Your Eye, But Don't! Rubbing Your Eye Could Dislodge The Flap, Requiring Further Treatment.

 

Glare And Light Sensitivity

 

In Addition, You May Experience Sensitivity To Light, Glare, Starbursts Or Haloes Around Lights, Or The Whites Of Your Eye May Look Red Or Bloodshot.These Symptoms Should Improve Considerably Within The First Few Days After Surgery. You Should Plan On Taking A Few Days Off From Work Until These Symptoms Subside.You Should Contact Your Doctor Immediately And Not Wait For Your Scheduled Visit, If You Experience Severe Pain, Or If Your Vision Or Other Symptoms Get Worse Instead Of Better.

 

Distortion Of Vision

 

Following Treatment Of The First Eye, There Will Be A Focusing Difference Between The Two Eyes. This May Also Cause Tension Headaches. These Symptoms Settle With Treatment Of The Second Eye.

 

Before Laser Eye Surgery

  

If You Decide To Go Ahead With LASIK Surgery, You Will Need An Initial Or Baseline Evaluation By Your Eye Doctor To Determine If You Are A Good Candidate. This Is What You Need To Know To Prepare For The Exam And What You Should Expect:

 

If You Wear Contact Lenses, It Is A Good Idea To Stop Wearing Them Before Your Baseline Evaluation And Switch To Wearing Your Glasses Full-Time. Contact Lenses Change The Shape Of Your Cornea For Up To Several Weeks After You Have Stopped Using Them Depending On The Type Of Contact Lenses You Wear. Not Leaving Your Contact Lenses Out Long Enough For Your Cornea To Assume Its Natural Shape Before Surgery Can Have Negative Consequences. These Consequences Include Inaccurate Measurements And A Poor Surgical Plan, Resulting In Poor Vision After Surgery. These Measurements, Which Determine How Much Corneal Tissue To Remove, May Need To Be Repeated At Least A Week After Your Initial Evaluation And Before Surgery To Make Sure They Have Not Changed, Especially If You Wear RGP Or Hard Lenses. If You Wear:

 

* Soft Contact Lenses, You Should Stop Wearing Them For 2 Weeks Before Your Initial Evaluation.

* Toric Soft Lenses Or Rigid Gas Permeable (RGP) Lenses, You Should Stop Wearing Them For At Least 3 Weeks Before Your Initial Evaluation.

* Hard Lenses, You Should Stop Wearing Them For At Least 4 Weeks Before Your Initial Evaluation.

 

You Should Tell Your Doctor : -

 

* About Your Past And Present Medical And Eye Conditions

* About All The Medications You Are Taking, Including Over-The-Counter Medications And Any Medications You May Be Allergic To

 

Your Doctor Should Perform A Thorough Eye Exam And Discuss : -

 

* Whether You Are A Good Candidate

* What The Risks, Benefits, And Alternatives Of The Surgery Are

* What You Should Expect Before, During, And After Surgery

* What Your Responsibilities Will Be Before, During, And After Surgery

 

You Should Have The Opportunity To Ask Your Doctor Questions During This Discussion. Give Yourself Plenty Of Time To Think About The Risk/Benefit Discussion, To Review Any Informational Literature Provided By Your Doctor, And To Have Any Additional Questions Answered By Your Doctor Before Deciding To Go Through With Surgery And Before Signing The Informed Consent Form.

 

You Should Not Feel Pressured By Your Doctor, Family, Friends, Or Anyone Else To Make A Decision About Having Surgery. Carefully Consider The Pros And Cons.

 

The Day Before Surgery, You Should Stop Using:

 

1. Creams

2. Lotions

3. Makeup

4. Perfumes

Two blocks from the machine applique lessons and two from the precise piecing lessons. I really like these pretty berry colored fabrics :o)

Or to be more precise, the Owl nebula (M97) and close galaxy companion M108. Although Lord Rosse's original drawing shows the Owl's eyes as having a star in each one, the camera shows that the two most prominent stars in the nebula are actually either side of one of the darker patches and nowhere near the other.

 

This was a short sequence of 9x4minutes taken in luminance with my 130mm triplet APO while I was changing my 12inch SCT from imaging Jupiter to wait for Mars to rise high enough to attempt.

I figured my only good shot of this train here was at the precise moment light passing through the empty center-beam cars on the siding lit the front of the locomotive. It worked out well as I captured this westbound at Bryan, Ohio, on the NS Chicago Line.

This equipment for generating the BBC time signal, or 'pips', employed an internal atomic clock, and the means to compare it electronically with other, remotely-sited, atomic clocks. Installed at the Royal Greenwich Observatory at Herstmonceaux in 1970, it had a working life of 20 years, feeding its precise signals by wire to Broadcasting House in London.

 

The BBC's first broadcast of the 'pips', 5 February 1924, was encouraged by Frank Dyson, the Astronomer Royal, and Frank Hope-Jones, inventor of the 'Synchronome' electrically driven pendulum clock. Hope-Jones was an advocate of William Hamilton Shortt's 'free pendulum' clocks which were installed at Greenwich in 1924 and provided the signal for the 'pips'. These were replaced in 1949 by two quartz oscillators, and then by the atomic clock shown here. The BBC now has its own compact system of atomic clocks, linked by radio to international atomic time standards.

 

These developments were part of a long-term drive to supply the British public with a precise time reference. From the mid-nineteenth century onwards, standardised 'railway time' was first disseminated by telegraph, replacing a system of 'local times' whereby, for example, Bristol time was ten minutes behind London. From 1880, Greenwich time was made the standard for Britain and increasingly accurate clocks were employed to this end.

Finally complete! It was a long & rewarding journey, highly recommended. Added feet and a handle and squeezed the amp into the casing. Almost had a heart attack. It was very precise and a tight squeeze. Had to hammer in places. So of course the tubes all came loose and I couldn't get to them. Had to cut a "tube window" in the back with my drill and now we are golden!

I BLACK WIZARD da Vancouver sono anzitutto una live band: scendono dal loro furgone degli anni Settanta solo per suonare e pisciare. Inutile cercare definizioni precise per il gruppo (stoner, doom, psych, heavy metal…) senza tener conto della componente retrò e garage della sua musica. I Black Wizard, infatti, abitano un passato ideale dove generi e sottogeneri dell’hard rock non sono ancora nati o - se proprio uno insiste - vanno ancora alle elementari (ma già fumano), per questo possiedono l’heaviness, ma anche l’immediatezza del vecchio rock’n’roll, e proprio per effetto di questo mix loro quattro sul palco sono imperdibili.

I PASTOR, se potessero, come genere sceglierebbero direttamente “1971”, magari perché è l’anno del primo disco dei Pentagram. I patiti di certi suoni, infatti, nel sangue di questi austriaci troveranno quantitativi maggiori di doom (o proto-doom) rispetto a quelli che scorrono nelle vene dei Black Wizard, ma saranno d’accordo con tutti gli altri sul fatto che siamo di fronte a un’accoppiata ideale per un tour. Ne converrete pure voi. Vi aspettiamo.

BLACK WIZARD are a live band in every sense of the word, they leave their 70’s tour van only to perform or pee. No point in trying to label their music (stoner, doom, psych, heavy metal…) without taking into account its retrò and garage components. The band still lives in those blessed years when genres and subgenres of hard rock were yet to be born, combining both the heaviness and the directness of the old school rock’n’roll. In short, you don’t wanna miss these four on stage.

 

Bandcamp > goo.gl/mEJ5oG

 

PASTOR, if they could, would define their genre “1971”, perhaps because it’s the year when the first full length of Pentagram was released. Their sound, in fact, is characterized by more doom (or proto-doom) notes compared to that of Black Wizard, with two bands nevertheless marrying perfectly to result in an outstanding tour material. Come see yourself.

Today saw a very early start (0645 to be precise) and even more so as it was a Sunday... But it was for a good reason.

 

Today (Sunday 28th October) saw the first day in service for the five new East Lothian Wright B7RLE (195-199), well only 196/7/8 were in operation today on service 113 between Western General H - City Centre - Meadowbank - Musselburgh - Tranent - Ormiston - Pencaitland.

 

This morning I was also joined by a few other enthusiasts but with the gloomy autumn weather putting off some others from adventuring out. All together it was a great day and I managed to capture some really nice photos.

 

Here is East Lothian 197 at Frederick Street on the first service 113 departure to Pencaitland via Meadowbank - Musselburgh - Tranent - Ormiston. 28th October 2012.

When was the world's first railway laid? No one is quite confident on a precise date but simple rails have been used to guide vehicles for centuries, definitely as far back as the middle ages and possibly even in ancient Greece.

 

What is certain is that in the early 1600s a Nottinghamshire businessman called Huntingdon Beaumont came to Northumberland and laid rails from collieries near Blyth to a shipping point on the coast.

 

His waggonway used horses hauling wooden waggons on wooden wheels on wooden rails, however this was not a financial success. It did though provide the spark of progression from primitive wooden rails over short distances, to a railway network which would change Britain and the world forever.

 

Tyneside Roads

 

From the mid 1600 onwards waggonways and the Tyneside coal industry became linked so closely that they were known throughout the rest of Britain as 'Tyneside Roads'. A network of lines linked collieries on both sides of the Tyne to the river.

 

It is no coincidence that the North East was the area where waggonways took greatest hold, because canal building was impossible due to deep valleys and steep hills. What set the rail systems of Tyneside apart from all others was its use of the flanged wheel - a key element of the modern railway as we know it.

 

A revelation

 

When the Tanfield Railway - or waggonway as it was known at the time - was built in 1725, it was a revelation. Its massive engineering was unlike anything else in its era, or even since the Roman Empire. It was a triumph of engineering over nature, a clear signal that a new industrial age was upon the world, and that railways would play a massive part.

 

First laid down more than a quarter of a century before the first railway officially sanctioned by government, over 75 years before the first steam locomotive and a whole 100 years earlier than the Stockton and Darlington Railway, the Tanfield Railway is the world's oldest railway. We will be the first railway to celebrate our tricentenary in 2025.

Standing with her weight on one leg and clothed in a voluminous gown, this statue of a goddess looks off to her left. Her precise identity is uncertain because the figure displays elements connected with more than one deity: Hygieia, the goddess of health, and Aphrodite, the goddess of love. The presence of the small, sleeping Eros, the winged young god of love, who leans against her leg, and the goddess's hairstyle argue in favor of her identity as Aphrodite. Yet the dress the goddess wears and the snake she holds are more typical of Hygieia. Furthermore, the egg she holds, an emblem of Hygieia's father Asklepios, associates her with that goddess.

 

As a relative latecomer to the classical pantheon, Hygieia lacked a distinct mythology and hence definitive attributes. Frequently Hygieia was blended or merged with another goddess, both in cult practice and in depictions, and this combination may be represented here.
