The girl in the foreground has made a lot of progress on her starts over the year our family has been part of The Claremont Cub swim team. A year ago she could barely lean forward into the pool from a sitting position on the deck.. Now she is able to make a dive off the block. She has an extreme phobia and has been able to work past it to do a dive off the blocks.

I think the next step is definitely to hang the room divider curtain sheers. Not sure when I'm going to have time to get that done, but hopefully I can do it during the week.

Christian fighting Apollyon (Bunyan, Pilgrim's Progress). Apollyon is the lord of the City of Destruction and one of the devil's companion archdevils, who tries to force Christian to return to his domain and service. His battle with Christian takes place in the Valley of Humiliation, just below the House Beautiful. He appears as a dragon-like creature with scales and bats' wings. He takes darts from his body to throw at his opponents. (Wiki).Lower panel: the arming of Christian, by Discretion, Prudence, Piety and Charity.

CINA - CHINA:
Theme: "Land of Hope, Food for Life"
The Concept
China’s theme captures an attitude of thankfulness, respect and cooperation that characterizes its people: the land has fed man from its beginnings and hope suggests the prospect of a future where food can offer life to everyone.
Agriculture, food, environment, sustainable development are the focal points of China's participation in Expo Milano 2015. Its aim is to recall the tenet of Chinese philosophy that "man is part of nature," and to illustrate its cultural traditions and progress in the areas of agriculture, showcasing the great strides made in the use of resources for providing a sufficient supply of good and healthy food.
The underlying theme is the pursuit of balance between mankind and the environment, between humanity and nature. Just as the farmer looks after and protects the earth, so must people care for the planet.
The exhibition area of 4,590 square meters unfolds around three themes. "The Gift of Nature" illustrates crop processes according to the Chinese lunisolar calendar and the five colors of the soil. "Food for Life" shows the production path of foods including tofu and other dishes, China’s famous eight schools of cuisine, and its tea culture. "Technology and the Future" charts the progress of science, including the hybrid rice of Professor Yuan Longping, recycling in agriculture and techniques for tracking the Internet of things.
This is the first time that China participates in a Universal Exposition with a self-built pavilion, symbolizing its commitment as a vast nation and the second largest economy in the world. For the first time, China is committed to illustrate and explain details of its agricultural policy, ranging from its history to the innovations of the future. Individual cities and provinces will also be present with rich and colorful events. And, for the first time ever, there will also be Chinese companies in their own self-built pavilions.

Tema della partecipazione "Terra di speranza, cibo per la vita"
Concept
Il tema scelto dalla Cina incarna l’atteggiamento di gratitudine, di rispetto e di cooperazione del popolo: la terra nutre l’uomo dalle origini, la speranza è la prospettiva di un futuro in cui il cibo consenta la vita di tutti.
Agricoltura, alimentazione, ambiente, sviluppo sostenibile sono i punti focali della partecipazione della Cina a Expo Milano 2015. Lo scopo è ricordare la convinzione della filosofia cinese che “l’uomo è parte integrante della natura”, illustrare le tradizioni culturali e i progressi nei campi dell’agricoltura, presentare i grandi passi compiuti nell’uso razionale delle risorse per assicurare cibo a sufficienza, buono e salutare. Il filo conduttore è la ricerca di equilibrio tra gli esseri umani e l’ambiente, tra l’umanità e la natura.
Come il contadino cura e protegge la sua terra, così il popolo deve custodire il Pianeta. Sono tre i temi intorno a cui si dipana l’esposizione, su un’area di 4.590 metri quadri. “Il dono della natura” illustra il processo del raccolto secondo il calendario cinese lunisolare e i cinque colori del suolo. “Cibo per la vita” mostra il percorso produttivo del cibo, del tofu e di altri piatti, le Otto famose scuole di cucina cinese, la cultura del tè. “Tecnologia e futuro” documenta i progressi scientifici, tra cui il riso ibrido del professor Yuan Longping, il riciclo in agricoltura, le tecniche per la tracciabilità, l’Internet delle cose. È la prima volta che la Cina partecipa a un’Esposizione Universale con un Padiglione self-built, simbolo dell’impegno di un grande Paese, la seconda economia mondiale. Per la prima volta il Paese si impegna a mostrare e spiegare nei dettagli la sua politica agricola, dalla storia alle innovazioni del futuro. Anche province e singole città saranno presenti con ricche e colorate attività. E, sempre per la prima volta, vi sono anche imprese cinesi in propri Padiglioni self-built.

Several projects are underway on the University of Central Arkansas campus. The weight training facility at the Pepsi Center is nearing completion, while the new Bear Hall is taking shape. The dormitory will also house several offices for the athletics department and feature privately-sponsored skyboxes overlooking Estes Stadium. The city of Conway is also in the midst of widening Farris Road on the western border of the campus.
My municipality is erecting an 18 story water tower just across the street from my home. Is ruining my backyard sunsets simply the price I pay for progress?
A reception was held after the event at the U.S. Institute of Peace.
The Embassy of Kazakhstan, the Embassy of Canada, Green Cross International, the Atom Project, and the Arms Control Association hosted a mini-conference examining the human and security dimensions of nuclear testing, as well as the progress achieved to bring an end to nuclear weapons test explosions.
