The Flickr Lounge, I is for Intriguing - street performers seen at the Farmer's Market last Saturday. I suspect they have something to do with the Green Party, an assumption based on the fact that all the main political parties were present in some shape-or-form in central Paderborn that day and this lot were using dustbins as props.

Despite my privacy and permission being set, from day one of being active on Flickr, so that only I can download and print my images and not allowing 3rd party sharing, etc, it still can (and will) happen from what I can tell.
The insult added to this injury is the fact that this person actually contacted me enquiring about buying a print of this image. I'm participating in a public forum for myriad reasons, but having my pictures misappropriated is not one of them. Not impressed!

Larry Cwik – Artist Statement – Asia 2011 – Gallery 5, Portland
Much of the work here comments on the dueling trends I observed in Asia in 2011 between commerce and spirituality. Commerce is represented by the video of Asian television commercials on the floor. Spirituality is represented by the Buddha garden, Buddha eyes lamp, Hand of Fatima glass ornament, and Gamesh magnet. Islam, represented by the Hand of Fatima, is the largest religion in Asia. Hinduism, represented by Ganesha, is the second largest. Buddhism is the third largest.
A symbolized Ganesha is in one of the photographs.
Commerce is represented in several of the photographs, from the cottage industries of fishing nets and rickshaw transportation in Bangladesh to a sleek ultra-modern office tower in Qatar.
The growing importance of Asia’s population to the globe is represented by two photographs of children. Billions of Asia’s peoples are under 30 years old. The wonderful contributions of Asia to world science, history, and culture are represented by a photograph from a still-preserved 17th-century astronomy observatory in India. The tension between historic political systems and the yearning for freedom and opportunity is represented by a photograph of posters of famous Chinese artist and dissident Ai Weiwei, currently under house arrest in China.

1306 Government Street, Victoria, BC
Statement of Significance
Description of Historic Place
The Palace Cigar Store is a two-storey, brick commercial building located on the west side of Government Street within Victoria’s Old Town. The building features a prominent arcade of three round-headed windows, each springing from a pair of columns, across the upper storey. The ground floor has a retail storefront with a central recessed entrance.
Heritage Value
The Palace Cigar Store is symbolic of the development of Victoria’s Old Town during the city’s early twentieth century economic renewal. At the time, there was increasing demand for retail space downtown, which resulted in construction activity along Government Street as the main shopping district. This building was an investment property for Heinrich Siebenbaum (1859-1942) who was born in Schleswig-Holstein, Germany, and arrived in Canada in 1893. By 1899, he was the operator of the Palace Saloon in the adjacent Adelphi Building at the corner of Government and Yates Streets. 1306 Government Street was opened as the Palace Cigar Store, with offices above. Siebenbaum’s business was destroyed in 1915 in local attacks on German commercial properties after the sinking of the Lusitania in World War One.
The Palace Cigar Store is additionally significant as an example of the transition from the Late Victorian era to the Edwardian era at a time when architectural styles, as well as building technologies, were changing. It typifies the late persistence of the Romanesque Revival style, as shown in the round-arched window openings on the upper floor. The ground floor was originally a single arched opening, further emphasizing a Romanesque character, but was later modernized to a rectangular storefront in line with changing commercial tastes.

Character-Defining Elements
Key elements that define the heritage character of the Palace Cigar Store include its:
- location on Government Street, part of a grouping of late-nineteenth and early-twentieth century historic masonry buildings in Victoria's Old Town
- continuous commercial use
- siting on the front and side property lines, with no setback
- commercial form, scale and massing, as expressed by its two-storey height, symmetrical rectangular plan and flat roof
- masonry construction, including pressed brick façade, common brick side and rear walls, and stone cornice
- Romanesque Revival style details, such as round-arched window heads, coupled columns with foliate cushion capitals, simply articulated archivolts, and corbelled brickwork
- fenestration, such as one-over-one double-hung wooden-sash windows with fixed semicircular transoms
- early storefront with central entry and plate glass display windows
- Canada's Historic Places

MSfit Opens For People Living with multiple sclerosis
Opening statement on landing page:
A young man’s vision and the collaboration between WSSU’s Department of Physical Therapy and the Gateway YWCA have come together to form MSfit, a free fitness and wellness program offered to people living with MS.

It was the brainchild of WSSU alumni and former WSSU employee Brian Murrill, whose mother Patsy Murrill is living with multiple sclerosis. She was diagnosed in 1995. She is a teacher at North Hills Elementary School.
"It's been a challenging yet rewarding experience seeing this program come together. I originally came up with this concept in January of 2013 to honor my mother. My original goal was to create a program that would directly address the physical and emotional needs of people living with MS,” said Brian. He said since then his organization has developed key partnerships with the Gateway YWCA, National MS Society, and the WSSU Department of Physical Therapy.
Here is his view of the future for the program. “Today we have three main objectives: the first one is to provide the MS community with a free fitness and wellness program that is designed to improve the quality of life of our participants and their families. The second one is to take the results from our program and share them with physicians to better understand the role fitness and wellness plays in managing MS. The last one is to create an opportunity for graduate level PT students to get hands on experience working with our participants. MS is the most common disabling neurological disease of young adults in the U.S. It is our hope to grow this program and improve the overall quality of life of as many participants as we can. When you support MSfit, you are empowering people to move beyond their MS by giving them the knowledge, skills, tools and confidence to adopt healthy lifestyle behaviors, actively co-manage their disease and live their best lives through health and wellness," Brian said.
The MSFit clinic is a free clinic where screenings occur for multiple sclerosis patients, along with development of an exercise program, and education on the exercise protocol for the clients at the YWCA.
MSfit officially opened its doors to participants January 26th at the Gateway YWCA, in Winston-Salem, NC, from 1-5 p.m. Since MSfit announced the launch of the program in October, it has received an overwhelming response from potential participants.
Prior to beginning the program, participants are required to complete an initial fitness screening that will gauge their level of ability. The screenings were conducted by the Winston-Salem State University Department of Physical Therapy (PT).
Dr. Sara Migliarese, a physical therapy professor at WSSU, said, “The WSSU Department of Physical Therapy is excited about the partnership with MSfit. Our third-year students performed the fitness screenings and developed exercise programs for the clients with MS based on their abilities.”
“Under the supervision of DPT faculty, the students will educate each client on safe and effective exercise using the YWCA facilities, classes, and equipment. This service-learning opportunity will benefit the students, as well as the clients, and the WSSU PT Club is already involved in early fundraising activities to help support the MSfit Foundation and cover the cost of the YWCA memberships for the MS clients. WSSU is committed to the success and sustainability of this community service,” Migliarese continued.
As a part of their coursework, the WSSU Department of PT will return to the Gateway YWCA once a month to reevaluate participants and document their successes.

Öl är hälsa, hälsa ofta. The Swedish word Hälsa means both Health and Greetings. Two teenagers driving an EPA-tractor and holding up the little traffic that it was with the top speed of 30 km/h. The kid driving the Volvo was having a conversation with a guy on a motorcycle. Either discussing the statement or the speed.
Shame this place no longer exists. We tried to go back this year and were caught by site security before we even crossed the road to go near the asylum. Here's a shot from last year. We stayed in the single room shooting for around 30 minutes and started getting cocky. We carried on searching the hospital, avoiding security. We then went through a door and were literally left facing a security guard, we went to run but decided to hand ourselves in for the easy exit, after all fake names don't mean much.
Statement from Capital Pride Alliance: "We are saddened and angered by the continued reports of increased hate and violence against members of our LGBTQ+ community. The recent attack on Jussie Smollet from the TV Show Empire has brought this conversation to the attention of national and international audiences. There is no reason for such attacks, on anyone, ever. We must speak out and join together, work to end hate and advance human dignity, equal rights, and a world free from discrimination and prejudice. The Capital Pride Alliance is committed to working diligently with our partners and the community to create safe spaces for all.

WASHINGTON, DC - MAY 01: Revelers gather at the fence on the north side of the White House, pose for photographs, chant 'U.S.A.! U.S.A.!' and sing the Star Spangled Banner while U.S. President Barack Obama announces the death of Osama Bin Laden during a late evening statement to the press in the East Room of the White House May 1, 2011 in Washington, DC. Bin Laden has been killed near Islamabad, Pakistan almost a decade after the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11, 2001 and his body is in possession of the United States.
