An evening's relaxation chez Bentos, 1988. Precise date unknown, but the first of the sprogs came along in April (memo to self: remember birthday) and relaxation was to be severely curtailed. I didn't think anything of smoking cigars indoors in those days. The missus didn't mind, she said, but I sometimes noticed a little flicker of disapproval cross her features when I sparked up. Eventually I too came to dislike the pong of stale cigar smoke in the house and removed myself to the shed for my twice-daily bit of peace and quiet.

The fabric on the cushion matched the curtains and had come from Habitat. I got hold of a Dulux colour chart, matched the three colours and bought co-ordinated paint for my newly replastered walls. Lesson 1; colours that look good in small areas don't necessarily look good when applied to whole rooms: Lesson 2; there is no such thing as a "square" room. I had decided on this arty décor with the lower third of the wall painted a darker colour. I was going for the "institutional" look ...something reminiscent of the corridors of a Victorian school or lunatic asylum. The lower part was blue, the upper part pink with the ceiling a sort of ice cream colour. I first tried to do all the bands and lines with masking tape, but the paint tended to seep underneath it and eventually I had to do the job by hand with a fitch brush. The ceiling paint was carried a few inches down the wall and the boundary between the two colours defined by a one-inch blue band. I'd taken all my measurements from the floor up but, when I came to rule out the upper band I discovered that the ceiling was not parallel with the floor ...not by a long chalk. The colour-scheme I had chosen might have been chosen to emphasize this effect. Visiting friends found it most amusing.

The Shwedagon Pagoda is the most famous Buddhist shrine in Myanmar, a national monument and the most revered religious complex in the country. It is also Yangon's most famous landmark and sits in a commanding hilltop position in the heart of the city. It is entered by gates on all four sides, each guarded by a pair of huge chinthe, from which a lengthy covered walkway ascends to the hilltop main stupa with it's surrounding complex of shrines.

 

The temple complex is truly stunning, with gilded finials and tabernacles in every direction, forming an extensive circuit around the base of the great golden stupa at it's heart. We had arrived rather late in the day, but still spent a few hours here after sunset; by night the tourists have mostly gone and been replaced by local devotees. We were the only Europeans there, and were made very welcome.

 

The central stupa is one of the largest ever built and was constructed originally to house relics of the Buddha, eight hairs to be precise which he had given to two Burmese merchant brothers who brought them back here. Thus according to this legend the site must have been occupied by a Buddhist shrine for over 2000 years, making it the oldest in all of Burma / Myanmar. The present stupa is however largely the result of rebuilding in the 14th century, and has been repaired many times since.

 

The name 'Shwe-dagon' literally means 'Great Dagon' Pagoda, referencing Yangon's earliest name of Dagon.

This is a component for a nanofactory.

 

A device to lock out arbitrary shaped micro-components from a practically perfect vacuum (green)** to a gas or liquid filled environment (red) without letting a single molecule of the medium back in. The device needs to be atomically precise with atomically flat piston surfaces. As of 2015 this device is not yet producible.

 

** Practically perfect vacuum is a requirement for mechanosynthesis of diamond. Although it is not yet possible to attain such a vacuum in today’s ultra high vacuum (UHV) vessels (which are in the meter scale and have imperfect steel walls which adsorb gas molecules) estimative calculations show that practically perfect vacuum certainly will be possible in microscopic atomically precise vessels made from gemstone like materials.

Another sewing project I finally got to. Had an old worn out pair of jeans I cut the legs off and turned into this Japanese saw wrap.

 

I started using Japanese crosscut (Dozuki) and rip (Ryoba) saws about 10 years ago. I'll never use an english pull saw ever again. They're extremely precise, easy to use and cut like butter on the pull stroke.

Church of St Lawrence Bidford on Avon, Warwickshire - The precise date of the founding of the church is unknown, No priest is mentioned here in the 1086 Domesday Survey and if there was a church here then, it was probably a chapelry of Salford.. It appears as such in Henry I's time when Bernard, the first Prior of Kenilworth (1122–30), successfully claimed it for his house and the Canons of Kenilworth presented until the Dissolution . - The first named incumbent is of 1206 followed by a second 75 years later.

After the mid 16c Dissolution of Kenilworth Abbey, certain lands were granted in 1544 to Thomas Broke, merchant, of London. in 1602 Rice Griffin of Brome Court flic.kr/p/2ff6ysh sold the advowson and rectory to Sir John Sedley …...

 

Standing at the crossing of an ancient trade route, the area has long been inhabited, The remains of a Roman bridge have been found and also an Anglo-Saxon graveyard.

The present church dates largely from 1835 when the old nave was pulled down and a new, wider one built by architect Joseph Lattimore of Stratford. The nave pews were taken out in the 1960s

The c1250 tower and chancel both survive . The tower battlements probably dating from the 1835 rebuilding.

 

On the south chancel wall is a portrait in stone of Dorothy Skipwith who died 3rd February, 1655, she was the 1st wife of Fulwar Skipworth d1678 of Newbold Hall, who bought the manor in 1654 from Sir John Clarke , and in whose family it descended until 1840- Dorothy was the daughter of Thomas Parker of Bottesham by Elizabeth daughter of Thomas Hobson.

Also on the same wall is a memorial to Woodchurch Clarke d1647 - Sadly there is not picture of these to be had, and the church is usually locked.

 

There are 8 bells in the tower which are still rung regularly, six dating from 1791 with two added in 1954. The clock dates from 1683 and was rebuilt in 1887. An automatic winding mechanism being installed in 2005.

EXHIBITION

100 Best Posters 14

GERMANY, AUSTRIA, SWITZERLAND

MI, MO 11/11/2015, 03/28/2016

MAK Art Print Hall

Already for the tenth time, the MAK in the exhibition 100 Best Posters 14. Germany Austria Switzerland shows the hundred most compelling design concepts in the probably hottest medium of visual everyday culture: the poster. The current winning projects of the popular graphic design competition are characterized by an enigmatic pictural humor, explosive colors as well as precise designs and demonstrate impressively that a poster can be more than just an banal advertising space. Many of the award-winning works furthermore also rely on a subtle play with typography. Innovative ideas can also be found in the manufacturing process: This year's competition shows that you can readily knit posters in high-tech process or use a thermo-insulating space blanket as carrier material for screen printing.

Hardly any medium is such clocked on the consumption and nevertheless sets trends at the cutting edge. "[...] The poster designer challenges himself repeatedly and enjoys himself at gained symbols." Says Götz Gramlich, President of the association 100 Best Posters eV, and he postulats. "A good poster unfolds in the mind of the beholder."

From over 1 800 submitted individual posters, composed of contract work, self-initiated posters/self-promotion as well as student project orders from Germany, Austria and Switzerland, awarded the international jury, consisting of Richard van der Laken (Amsterdam, Chairman), Christof Nardin (Wien), Jiri Oplatek (Basel), Nicolaus Ott (Berlin) and Ariane Spanier (Berlin), the 100 winning posters of the year 2014.

In the competition participated 575 submitters (men and women), of which 48 are from Austria, 128 from Switzerland and 399 from Germany. The leader among the winning 100 best is Switzerland with 51 winning projects, followed by 44 German and 5 Austrian contributions.

The by sensomatic design (Christine Zmölnig and Florian Koch, Vienna) designed catalog offers in addition to the illustrations of all the winning posters and the contacts with the designers also this year a captivating essay by Thomas Friedrich: On the dialectics of image and text in the poster today. In a concise way, he looks at the contextuality of posters and explains the theme facetiously and pictorially based on a poster for a bullfight. Read more in the catalog!

For the corporate design of this year's competition and the new Web Visuals also sensomatic design, Vienna, is responsible. Since June 2014, the new online archive on the homepage of the 100 Best Posters Registered Association offers a comprehensive overview of all award-winning works from the years 2001-2014.

The exhibition takes place in cooperation with 100 Best Posters e. V.

AUSSTELLUNG

100 Beste Plakate 14

DEUTSCHLAND ÖSTERREICH SCHWEIZ

MI, 11.11.2015–MO, 28.03.2016

MAK-KUNSTBLÄTTERSAAL

Bereits zum zehnten Mal zeigt das MAK in der Ausstellung 100 BESTE PLAKATE 14. Deutschland Österreich Schweiz die einhundert überzeugendsten Gestaltungskonzepte im wohl heißesten Medium der visuellen Alltagskultur: dem Plakat. Die aktuellen Siegerprojekte des beliebten Grafikdesignwettbewerbs bestechen mit hintergründigem Bildwitz, explosiver Farbgebung sowie exakten Ausführungen und demonstrieren eindrücklich, dass ein Plakat mehr als nur banale Werbefläche sein kann. Viele der prämierten Arbeiten setzen außerdem auf ein subtiles Spiel mit Typografie. Innovative Ideen finden sich auch im Herstellungsprozess: Der diesjährige Wettbewerb zeigt, dass man Plakate ohne Weiteres im Hightech-Verfahren stricken oder eine thermo-isolierende Rettungsdecke als Trägermaterial für einen Siebdruck verwenden kann.

Kaum ein Medium ist derart auf den Verbrauch hin getaktet und setzt dennoch Trends am Puls der Zeit. „[…] der Plakatgestalter fordert sich immer wieder selbst heraus und erfreut sich an gewonnenen Sinnbildern.“ so Götz Gramlich, Präsident des Vereins 100 Beste Plakate e. V., und er postuliert: „Ein gutes Plakat entfaltet sich im Kopf des Betrachters.“

Aus über 1 800 eingereichten Einzelplakaten, zusammengesetzt aus Auftragsarbeiten, selbst initiierten Plakaten/Eigenwerbungen sowie studentischen Projektaufträgen aus Deutschland, Österreich und der Schweiz, prämierte die international besetzte Fachjury, bestehend aus Richard van der Laken (Amsterdam, Vorsitz), Christof Nardin (Wien), Jiri Oplatek (Basel), Nicolaus Ott (Berlin) und Ariane Spanier (Berlin), die 100 Siegerplakate des Jahres 2014.

Am Wettbewerb hatten sich 575 EinreicherInnen beteiligt, davon 48 aus Österreich, 128 aus der Schweiz und 399 aus Deutschland. Spitzenreiter unter den prämierten 100 Besten ist die Schweiz mit 51 Siegerprojekten, gefolgt von 44 deutschen und 5 österreichischen Beiträgen.

Der von sensomatic design (Christine Zmölnig und Florian Koch, Wien) gestaltete Katalog bietet neben den Abbildungen aller Siegerplakate und den Kontakten zu den GestalterInnen auch dieses Jahr einen bestechenden Aufsatz von Thomas Friedrich: Zur Dialektik von Bild und Text im Plakat heute. In pointierter Form geht er auf die Kontextualität von Plakaten ein und erklärt das Thema witzig und bildhaft anhand eines Plakats für einen Stierkampf. Mehr dazu im Katalog!

Für das Corporate Design des diesjährigen Wettbewerbs und die neuen Web-Visuals zeichnet ebenfalls sensomatic design, Wien, verantwortlich. Seit Juni 2014 bietet das neue Online-Archiv auf der Homepage der 100 Beste Plakate e. V. einen umfassenden Überblick aller prämierten Arbeiten aus den Jahren 2001 bis 2014.

Die Ausstellung findet in Kooperation mit 100 Beste Plakate e. V. statt.

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.

Foundation stone 12 Oct 1870 by John Hart, architect Daniel Garlick, opened 12 Jul 1871 on land purchased from W Lewis, lecture hall added 1874. The two-storey Soldiers Memorial Hall opened 18 Oct 1929, renovated 1936. The Institute had been founded 1858.

 

“meeting of the Kapunda Institute was held at the North Kapunda School. . . [The Chairman] briefly stated the progress of the Committee in forming the Institute, and read the financial statement. . . a small balance was yet required to enable the Committee to start the institute clear of debt in the new building, which is now almost ready for use. . . remind the members that they had so far got up the Institute themselves, with very small aid from any person out of Kapunda. It was essentially the Institute of the mechanics, miners, and labourers of Kapunda.” [Advertiser 7 Aug 1858]

 

“Kapunda Literary Institute. . . in the North Kapunda Schoolroom. . . their first half-yearly report, the Committee fed that they have reason to congratulate members upon the position which the Institute has reached. . . The new reading-room is completed, and is open for the use of members every evening. . . The shelves of the library now contain 3304volumes of books. . . A variety of local and English periodicals and newspapers are regularly received. . . a lecture every month. . . resolved that chess be allowed, but that the players find their own men and board. . . the Institute be open from 1 p.m. to day subscribers.” [Register 17 Dec 1858]

 

“Kapunda Institute. . . For years gone by the Institute Committee have had sundry disadvantages to contend with — not the least of which was the carrying on operations in premises altogether too crabbed and confined to allow of their efforts being successful. In the old days the Institute in Crase street was unapproachable in wet weather, save by daylight, and the very hours when its reading room should have been most fully occupied was the precise time when it was next to impossible to reach it. In those days Kapunda was not blessed with a Corporation, or the way of approach would doubtless have soon been made passable. As it was, however, it was a matter of congratulation when the Committee transferred their scene of operations to Main-street, in which premises there was far greater accommodation so far as regarded the reading-room; but the building was not suitable for carrying out the other agencies which equally with the mere circulation of books are necessary to the attainment of the objects at which the Institute aims.” [Kapunda Herald 14 Jul 1871]

 

“The history of the local Institute in Kapunda has been such a chequered one, the interest manifested in it by those for whom its advantages were principally intended has been so small, and no many things have tended to impede its successful progress, that the Committee found it rather difficult to realise that on Wednesday the foundation-stone for a new, commodious, and elegant structure was really laid. . . The land was purchased from Mr. W. Lewis for £159, about five years ago, and the present erection will only be the front part, the larger building — the Hall — being a work left to the future.” [Advertiser 13 Oct 1870]

 

“Although it had become common to speak of the great event of the day-as laying the foundation stone of the building, we need hardly say to our readers that this is hardly a correct term, that stone having been most unostentatiously laid some weeks back by Mr. J. P. Moyle, and the superstructure being already erected thereon to above the ground level. The stone with which Wednesday’s ceremonial was connected was a splendid large freestone block forming one of the corner stones at the principal entrance, a freestone of a beauty of grain and colour not to be surpassed in the colony.” [Kapunda Herald 14 Oct 1870]

 

“The formal opening was arranged to take place on Wednesday. . . The programme opened with a torchlight procession. . . The torches and bearers, of which there were 150, starting from three points in Mildred-street, Mr. Schramm's, South terrace, and Clare-road, met at the junction, where the 15 lanterns were in waiting at 8 o'clock; then marched along the Main-street, and turning back to Hill-street drew up in front of the Institute.” [Register 14 Jul 1871]

 

“The building consists of a basement and ground floor. In the former is included a large room. . . with two class-rooms. . . and a store room. On the upper floor is the reading-room. . . and the library. . . the remainder of the space is occupied by a Committee-room. . . Only the front of the building has been erected, but the design was drawn to include a spacious and handsome lecture-hall at the rear.” [Kapunda Herald 14 Jul 1871]

 

“Kapunda Institute. . . the bare walls of the reading-room are now becoming gradually covered with mounted maps and plans of the counties of South Australia, of Victoria, and of some of the chief places in Victoria.” [Kapunda Herald 11 Jun 1872]

 

“The Entertainment Committee of the Kapunda Institute has now purchased a very nice piano for the use of the Institute which arrived yesterday.” [Kapunda Herald 5 Jul 1872]

 

“some dozen members of the Kapunda Institute have resolved to purchase a piano, to be placed in the smoking room for their own especial use. If this company obtains a piano, there will then be two instruments in the Institute, which speaks well of musical proclivities of its subscribers.” [Kapunda Herald 3 Sep 1872]

 

“the first of their series of entertainments in aid of the fund for the erection of the Kapunda Institute Lecture Hall.” [Kapunda Herald 4 Oct 72]

 

“A Philharmonic Society has been organised and affiliated to the Kapunda Institute during the past six months, with a roll at present numbering 43 members and an average attendance of 28. . . The Literary Club has just completed a very active session. . . Its roll now numbers 50 members, and the average attendance has been 17. . . arrangements have been made for classes for the study of the following subjects:— Chemistry, Latin, Greek, German, English, Logic, Mathematics, and Vocal Music.” [Kapunda Herald 4 Feb 1873]

 

“not many years since, when the Institute occupied Mr. Batten's premises in Main-street, it was felt by many that the then Committee did a very foolish and risky thing in venturing to undertake the erection of the new Institute in Hill-street. . . Encouraged by their past success, the Committee at once determined as soon as possible to carry out their original intention of erecting a large Lecture-Hall. . . The Hall is built of stone from Mr. McLaren’s quarry. . . The dressings round the outside of doors and windows are of freestone from Mr. Baker's quarry on the Clare-road.” [Kapunda Herald 8 May 1874]

 

“The work of renovation of the Kapunda Institute premises has been commenced by Mr. S. March and Mr. W. Buxton. The hall is to be re-colored throughout, and doors and windows are to be painted. All the doors on the premises are to be made to open outwards, to facilitate egress in the event of fire.” [Kapunda Herald 20 Nov 1908]

 

“Kapunda Institute. . . it was decided that all returned soldiers should be admitted as honorary members of the Institute for one year.” [Kapunda Herald 13 Jul 1917]

 

“The proposal is to extend the main hall, add to the buildings, and alter the name to the Kapunda Institute and Soldiers Memorial Hall. The additions will make the hall a fitting repository of any photos, pictures, flags, and other relics of the late war, and will also include a room for the use of returned soldiers, who will be made life- members of the Institute.” [Kapunda Herald 26 Mar 1920]

 

“The question of making alterations and additions to the Kapunda institute as a soldiers' memorial has been so long in abeyance that some people had the opinion that the scheme was defunct.” [Kapunda Herald 6 Jul 1923]

 

“After many years, the carrying out of the scheme to enlarge the Kapunda Institute is to be an accomplished fact. . . The main hall will be enlarged by carrying it back to the wall at the rear of the present stage, a new stage will be added. . . A storey will be added to the front portion of the building, and a room there will be supplied for the exclusive use of returned soldiers. Extra accommodation will also be built for picture purposes.” [Kapunda Herald 19 Apr 1929]

 

“It is about ten years ago since the idea was formed to enlarge the Kapunda Institute, and at the same time to make it into a Soldiers' Memorial Hall. Although at the outset the scheme received a fair amount of support, for various reasons enough money was not forthcoming to complete the proposed scheme.” [Kapunda Herald 25 Oct 1929]

 

“Kapunda. A concert was held in connection with the re-opening of the Institute and Soldiers' Memorial Hall. . . A street carnival was also held.” [Advertiser 26 Oct 1929]

 

“Kapunda Institute and Soldiers' Memorial Hall . . . improvements recently effected by transferring the library to a larger room, and the purchase of a large number of new books for circulation. . . To celebrate Centenary year, a drive is being made to repaint and decorate the main hall. . . The installation of 75 upholstered chairs, and the laying of matting in the aisles.” [Kapunda Herald 7 Aug 1936]

 

“At the annual meeting of the subscribers to the Kapunda Institute and S.M. Hall on Friday evening of last week, it was announced that the institution was now free of debt.” [Kapunda Herald 14 Feb 1946]

 

“A grand ball will be held in the Soldiers' Memorial Hall at Kapunda on October 30 in aid of the War Graves Appeal.” [Advertiser 18 Sep 1953]

 

“R.S.L. . . Kapunda Sub-branch . . . will hold a Diggers' ball in the Kapunda Soldiers' Memorial Hall. Dancing 8.30 to 1.30. Supper, novelties, 5-pleee dance band, three vocalists, floor show. Admission, men 7/6; women 6/.” [Advertiser 14 Apr 1954]

"The precise story that Albert Watson is telling in this picture is not entirely clear, but then Miuccia Prada has always enjoyed an enigma. The product, bearing the Prada logo and the expensive wallet spilling money are surely both the story, but not in an obvious way. The eye is drawn to the nude body, the tumbled hair & the satin sheets (or is it a dress?) in this intriguing and mysterious image before the details of the front of the picture are fully noticed. This almost subliminal approach of Miuccia Prada continues to return in advertising."

Lowered BMW X6M with COR Precise 22x10 and 22x12

For some reason this was a particularly challenging model for me (I made this fairly early on after returning to modular origami). Perhaps I was rusty or I wasn't precise enough in making my units. Folded from copy paper.

Pink Floyd produced about 14 original albums since their beginnings in 1965 until... well, until today! (or 1994 to be more precise when they produced their most recent work) They still tour today. But in all those years, the only albumn I ever owned was The Dark Side of the Moon from 1973. There were other tunes I liked but that was THE album and this tune was my favorite cut.

 

Time - by Pink Floyd

from The Dark Side of the Moon

 

Ticking away the moments that make up a dull day

You fritter and waste the hours in an offhand way.

Kicking around on a piece of ground in your home town

Waiting for someone or something to show you the way.

 

Tired of lying in the sunshine staying home to watch the rain.

You are young and life is long and there is time to kill today.

And then one day you find ten years have got behind you.

No one told you when to run, you missed the starting gun.

 

So you run and you run to catch up with the sun but it's sinking

Racing around to come up behind you again.

The sun is the same in a relative way but you're older,

Shorter of breath and one day closer to death.

 

Every year is getting shorter never seem to find the time.

Plans that either come to naught or half a page of scribbled lines

Hanging on in quiet desperation is the English way

The time is gone, the song is over,

Thought I'd something more to say.

 

Home, home again

I like to be here when I can

And when I come home cold and tired

Its good to warm my bones beside the fire

Far away across the field

The tolling of the iron bell

Calls the faithful to their knees

To hear the softly spoken magic spells.

 

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。

 

to be continued...

八一八路过看不顺眼。。打抱不平

因此。。。只是一点点的建议而已

如认为大人说话。。。。小孩多嘴的话。。。敬请原谅咯

 

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.

The HMA/DMA Shearwelders are the world's most precise thin gauge machine. Capabilities include material down to approximately .005" thick and as narrow as approximately .187" wide.

The world's most precise thin-gauge Shearwelder, the semi-automatic HMA/DMA Shearwelder is ideal for thin-gauge strip processing lines where coil ends can be positioned manually from the shear to the weld station. It is capable of handling most materials up to 20" (500 mm) wide and thicknesses from .005" (0.12 mm) to .160" (4.0 mm).

 

HMA/DMA SHEARWELDER EXCLUSIVE FEATURES:

 

The HMA and DMA series Shearwelders are machines that join two (2) coil ends together by using either TIG, MIG, PLASMA, or LASER welding. The coil ends can be either overlapped or butt welded depending on the application. These machines are designed for use on either start/stop or continuous lines such as:

  

• Coil Buildup • Stamping

• Tube/Pipe Mill • Others

 

Adjustable features make the HMA and DMA Shearwelders easy to operate. The trailing coil end is sheared, then positioned in the weld station. The leading end of the second coil is sheared and then positioned in the weld station. Welding is automatic and features a variable-speed, solid-state DC motor drive and control.

Other features include reversible shear knives and weld backup bar. The HMA features hand operated shear and weld clamps while these items on the DMA are hydraulically operated. Edge alignment guides have hardened, replaceable faces and are adjustable. The automatic weld carriage is supported on four ball bushings for precise alignment.

The tab welding option modifies the welder for precision welds on narrow, thin gauge materials. It is used primarily on single traverse wind or press feed lines, where a perfect edge-to-edge weld is required, on narrow strip, from about .187" (4.75 mm) to 7" (180 mm) wide.

The Guild exclusive ab pusher feature allows the operator to make consistent high quality edge-to-edge welds on the narrowest and thinnest materials. Extra-long, completely contained side guides are also provided to assure proper strip alignment in the machine.
