Upon request: A closeup of the boots I wore on this picture. The velvet-like texture works best for the red ones.
The picture was taken at a very nice little Shinto shrine in Romeno, the Sim adjacent to Bresimo with its Falcon Island.

Not technically, since I knew I had to post this based on all the praise it received in my previous picture of my new office.
Uhm, I've I bit of a problem keeping my balance on my ladies shoes on this rocky terrain. Therefore I'm kind of stuck holding this pole. Can you please rescue me and offer a hand to help me out? Maybe it's even better when you wrap your arm around me for optimal balance...
3FM Serious Request draait dit jaar om meisjes en vrouwen die slachtoffer zijn van seksueel geweld in conflictgebieden. 3FM Serious Request 2014 vraagt aandacht voor een stille ramp die miljoenen vrouwen treft en beschadigt. 3FM-DJ’s Coen Swijnenberg, Gerard Ekdom en Domien Verschuuren in het Glazen Huis in Haarlem willen deze vrouwen een stem geven en zoveel mogelijk geld inzamelen voor het Rode Kruis, zodat zij opgevangen worden en een leven kunnen opbouwen.

Photographs in this collection have been produced by Alison Lowrie, Heather Do, Liz Dolinar, and Adriana Haro at request of Michael Ashley for the UC Berkeley Anthropology 136e class, Spring 2011. The purpose was to digitally document the cultural heritage of Green Gulch Zen Center with the objective of gaining better insight into the Zen Center's cultural history through the use of photographic technology.
Green Gulch Farm Zen Center (Latitude 37.86657, Longitude -122.56528), also referred to as the Green Dragon Temple, is located in Marin County, CA in a beautiful coastal valley overlooking the Pacific Ocean. Green Gulch, approximately a 10 mile drive north of San Francisco Golden Gate Bridge, is located on 115 acres surrounded by hundreds of acres of the Golden Gate National Recreation Area. Green Gulch is a cultural heritage site constituting of one of the three centers that form the San Francisco Zen Center founded by Shunryu Suzuki Roshi [1]. In 1972, Green Gulch was purchased from George Wheelwright, co-founder of Polaroid, as a part of Shunryu Suzuki Roshi's vision to obtain a farm near the San Francisco Bay area where a community of Zen Buddhist practitioners could communally live and practice in accompany of one another [2] [3]. Part of the Wheelwright's stipulation of the sale to the San Francisco Zen Center was that the farm must forever remain open to the public, as well as partake in agricultural awareness [4]. Green Gulch now serves as a Buddhist practice center in the Japanese Soto Zen tradition, were their endeavor is to awaken the people residing, working, and visiting the center in the bodhisattva spirit-the spirit of kindness and realistic helpfulness [1]. Green Gulch is compromised of a temple (the Zendo), organic farm and garden, guesthouse, and conference center. The center offers training and practice in Zen mediation through workshops and retreats, as well as apprenticeships emphasizing meditation practice, Buddhist teachings, and organic gardening and farming methods [5].
Photographs in this collection were captured on Sunday April 24, 2011, between 11:30 AM and 2:15 PM Pacific Time, under sunny conditions. Nixon D80 and two-Canon XSI cameras were used. A tripod was used for HDR shots. The photos were post-processed in Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 3.

The doll is Horsman's Mary Poppins that I've had forever and will eventually be finding a new home, the clothes are new. I got them because I thought they'd fit Ken, but the shirt is very undersized, but the pants are too big for Barbie.They have all the markings of a clone outfit, does anyone know who made them and for who?

as per request, this is a Rossi m971 caliber .357 magnum revolver with 2 1/2" barrel in polished stainless steel. it is directly paterned from the S&W (Rossi licensed the Smith & Wesson print) 6 shot k frame revolver model 686 (I'm pretty sure that's the model). this pistol is made in brazil. the grip is made by pachmeir for rossi and yes it's every bit as comfortable as it looks (that is until you fire this little thunder maker, not the grips fault just a lot of kick from .357). this is my camp/pack/under the seat gun, and as such has seen alot of the countryside with me. I love this gun. I have had it for years and it has always been a good friend. I have never had a problem with this gun fireing, jaming, or not functioning regardless of the amount of crap ammo I've put through it, (bad primers or poorly seated bullets withheld)the same cannot be said for my autos, some of which are very fickle as to what ammo you feed them. Due to it's Stainless construction, I don't cringe around moisture (and it's never gotten rusty, just try and keep a light coat of oil on the thing). it's been shot and not cleaned for a week and shot again...no problem. It's been dropped, beat and rattled around in the truck and just keeps ticken. when I bought this firearm at J&G in prescott, I was looking for a revolver, I wanted a used Colt Python, Ruger Redhawk, or S&W K frame. I saw this in the cabinet and did a double take cause I thought it was a S&W tagged for $198.00 (over 1/2 off the normal price for a firearm of this nature, even used). I asked the man behind the counter about it and he said it was pretty good, but a knock off (what an understatement!). coming from a family of gun owners and as an avid collector myself, I've had quite a bit of experience with a variety firearms, this is one of the best, most reliable, most compact, most bang-for-your-buck, most durable pieces i've ever had. I LOVE THIS GUN! And recomed it for anyone who needs a reliable all around pistol. Thank God I have never had to fire this in fear or anger, but I rest assure that I could stop a bear (or semi!) if need be (some Javalina came close once camping above Prescott).

Hi,
I was working on building a Matrix trilogy inspired adventure map, but my real life work is stalling the project, so instead of letting it sit, I wanted to share the texture pack and what I have started of the map.
porkshanks.deviantart.com/art/Aftermath-Texture-Pack-WIP-...
The texture pack is 32 x 32 so you will have to use a modloader to run it.
I'm drawing over a copy of "Last Days" which was made by a few different artists, but the terrain.png is about 95% finished, and when its done, this pack will be *completely* different from Last Days, so please pardon the work-in-progress aspect of it, for now.
dl.dropbox.com/u/20781371/4FTERM4TH/level.dat
It was not really designed to be used as a "survival mode" texture pack, although I do include some textures near the bottom for eventually making a hydrid texture map that can be. If you do check it out, please take a look at what the finished map looks like.
As requested by Dan...
The Château de Sarzay is a 14th century castle in the village of Sarzay in the Indre département of France. I live in the Creuse département just over the border. The castle and land surrounding it was bought in 1982 by Richard Hurbain, who worked for the national electric company at the time, for 790,000 francs. Hurbain pledged to restore the moats, build halls in the medieval style, and restore outbuildings as holiday accommodation. The castle is open to the public. M. Hurbain has restored the house and hall and it looks very authentic...you can stay there as they do B&B very , very reasonably and have breakfast and meals outside on the lawn with the exceptional views for company!
The interior of the castle has been restored to a degree, and contains many authentic antiquities and antiques from the mediaeval and later periods.

De DJ's in het Glazen Huis in Heerlen zetten zich in december 2015 samen met Nederland in voor de generatie van de toekomst in oorlogs- en conflictgebieden: kinderen en jongeren die leven onder de meest extreme omstandigheden en daardoor weinig kans hebben op scholing en ontwikkeling. Zij zijn de stille slachtoffers van de oorlog. NPO 3FM geeft ze met Serious Request een stem. Paul Rabbering reisde naar Syrië, een land waar de oorlog een enorme impact heeft op het dagelijks leven.

per *eyelove*'s request, here's the offending tattoo. Because I had this done less than 12 months ago (which is apparently how long hepatitis can lay dormant), my blood donation is assumed to be tainted and discarded. You live and learn, I guess.
As for its meaning: It's Tibetan script of a Buddhist mantra, "Om Mani Padme Hum," which has several different meanings in English (follow that hyperlink), but for me it marks a decision to work toward being more compassionate, less selfish and strive for enlightenment.
I just need to make more informed decisions about donating blood.

By request of @amanicdroid. EarthExplorer is down and this is one of my last for the night – my eyes are a bit tired and my room is dark and I’m worried I’m not getting the color exactly right. Will have another look tomorrow. (Landsat LC80180352013164LGN01.)
