NOTE:

Most of the above 160 Romanian women, in the best tradition of versatility, are true polymaths and therefore nearly each one of them falls in more than just one category, often three or more. This explains why adding the numbers of the 57 individual categories bears no relation to the actual total of the above 160 women included in Blouse Roumaine.

Quotation response: Intelligent people are full of doubts because there's always a possibility to explore, expand, research and find out more, as for stupid people - just follow blindly what the previous person said!

 

One of the best definitions of ‘friendship.’

I hope that one day we'll have the best, enough for us then divide the rest.

finally finished this up for my shop. I love working with letters/text so this was way fun. Working on another one currently.

“The gulls who scorn perfection for the sake of travel go nowhere, slowly.”

~ Richard Bach ~

 

. . . and with this quotation in mind, we've got to start making travel plans for our 20th anniversary! Somehow, I'm wondering if we may go nowhere, slowly!

Your smile is always a sweet memory

Your voice is still whispering in my ears.

Your affectionate approach is touched with joy

A hint of love and attention often appears.

Ernest Rutherford was born on 30 August 1871 in Nelson, New Zealand, the son of a farmer. In 1894 he won a scholarship to Cambridge University and worked as a research student under Sir Joseph Thomson. In 1898 he became Professor of Physics at McGill University in Montreal, Canada. There, working with chemist Frederick Soddy, he investigated the newly-discovered phenomenon of radioactivity. Rutherford and Soddy proposed that radioactivity results from the disintegration of atoms.

 

In 1907 Rutherford returned to England to become Professor of Physics at Manchester University. In 1908, he was awarded the Nobel Prize in Chemistry. In 1914 he was knighted, but the war interrupted his work. He helped to develop methods of dealing with the new menace of submarine warfare, as well as studying underwater acoustics.

 

In 1917 he returned to physics and a long series of experiments in which he discovered that the nuclei of certain light elements, such as nitrogen, could be 'disintegrated' by the impact of energetic alpha particles coming from some radioactive source, and that during this process fast protons were emitted. This was the first artificially induced nuclear reaction. Rutherford had virtually created a new discipline, that of nuclear physics.

 

In 1919 Rutherford became professor of experimental physics and director of the Cavendish Laboratory at Cambridge, succeeding Thomson. Many of his students at the Cavendish Laboratory went on to become pioneering scientists. From 1925 to 1930 he was president of the Royal Society (to which he had been elected in 1903). In 1931 he was awarded a life peerage and died on 19 October 1937. He was buried in Westminster Abbey.

Work Hard Quotes :

Hard work keeps the wrinkes out of the mind and spirit.

Quotation about hard work by Helena Rubinstein.

If you are lazy, you mind will become devil’s workshop and your body will become property of the hospital. Karma yoga is one yoga form of achieving eternity through hard work towards your life goal.

 

Work hard quotes compiled from brain quotes. Each morning sees some task begun. Each evening see it close. Something attempted each day and though hard work something is done. One who does this earns a night's repose. Work hard quotes written by Long fellow in his book, The Village Blacksmith.

A quotation by Maxwell Maltz (1899-1975), an American physician and author.

Quote:

The difference between school and life? In school, you’re taught a lesson and then given a test. In life, you’re given a test that teaches you a lesson.

- Tom Bodett

In Graduate school, my wife wrote an academic term paper for a psychology class titled, “The three effs to a happy marriage, everything else is either a dependency or a contingency.”

 

These are those “three effs.” Aside from a catchy and a titillating title, the text is quite dry and is just technical psychobabble mambo-jumbo.

“An artist cannot fail; it is a success to be one.” --Charles Horton Cooley

There’s a Heart! It's so incredible to see that you can give it back.

Sometimes in the long run, triumphal accomplishments are simply awful experiences. It seduces intelligent people into thinking they can never lose.

  

Things to ponder, quotes that moves you

Words tell our stories, but art makes it possible for us to bear witness to them. -Cathy Malchiodi

“It is the function of art to renew our perception. What we are familiar with we cease to see. The writer shakes up the familiar scene, and, as if by magic, we see a new meaning in it.” ~ Anaïs Nin

...Visualize and Perceive...

Only positive things.

 

"In the midst of movement and chaos,

keep stillness inside of you."

-Deepak Chopra

 

For JWS on this day...Love you!

This is the finished product for the first project in my typography class. The assignment was the take the phrase "Just because you can does not mean that you should" and illustrate it using the text and minimal illustration. Admittedly, I went a little overboard with illustration, but I'm happy with the outcome.

My own favorite shot, hehehehe!
