Vakhtang Kebuladze - philosopher
"We want everything which has a value to be eternal. Now everything which has a value is the product of a meeting, lasts throughout this meeting and ceases when those things which met are separated. That is the central idea of Buddhism (the thought of Heraclitus). It leads straight to God.
Meditation on chance which led to the meeting of my father and mother is even more salutary than meditation on death.
Is there a single thing in me of which the origin is not to be found in that meeting? Only God. And yet again, my thought of God had its origin in that meeting.
Stars and blossoming fruit-trees: utter permanence and extreme fragility give an equal sense of eternity.
The theories about progress and the 'genius which always pierces through', arise from the fact that it is intolerable to suppose that what is most precious in the world should be given over to chance. It is because it is intolerable that it ought to be contemplated.
Creation is this very thing.
The only good which is not subject to chance is that which is outside the world.
The vulnerability of precious things is beautiful because vulnerability is a mark of existence.
The destruction of Troy. The fall of the petals from fruit trees in blossom. To know that what is most precious is not rooted in existence----that is beautiful. Why? It projects the soul beyond time."
~ Simone Weil

1: The element this image is expressing is "Value." It is reflected to composition because it serves to create a mood and it leads the eye through the photograph.
2: The main subject matter of the photograph is positioned near value.
3: The steps that make this image successfully visually striking is because of the saturated blues making the image eye catching.
4: I can improve on this photo if I reshot it by maybe trying to get less of the sky and more of the falls.

Tour promotes the value of higher education to Missouri students, business and community leaders
COLUMBIA, Mo. – University of Missouri System President Tim Wolfe, joined by University of Missouri-Columbia (MU) Chancellor R. Bowen Loftin, began the third full school year of his Show Me Value Tour today with stops in Ashland and Columbia, continuing the conversation Wolfe began with Missourians more than two years ago to counter growing sentiment that a college education is not as valuable as it once was.
Wolfe visited Lange Middle School in Columbia, his latest stop on the tour that began in March 2013. Since then, the president has visited 21 communities across the state including today’s stops in Ashland and Columbia, speaking to more than 6,000 middle and junior high school students about the importance of a college education. Today’s stop was the second full year since the tour was expanded to include each chancellor of the UM System’s four campuses; today, MU Chancellor Loftin joined the president for a morning meeting with community leaders in Ashland, and also made his own presentation this morning on the value of a college degree to eighth graders at Southern Boone Middle School.
Pop Up Parade SF% Chun Li and Juri. Not really much explanation needed on these ones - relatively low cost statues offering decent production values and licenses that appeal to a larger audience. At around 5,500 Yen a piece, these are very much a value proposition offering.To that end, we're going to be realistic in terms of expectations of paint and that other good stuff.
So, from my understanding, while these are the first SF6 offerings at retail, these are not the first in the line - that honour belongs to the statues of Luke and Kimberly, which came with the Collectors Edition. The funny thing is that I feel that a good proportion of collectors who bought the Collectors Edition basically never wanted the statues to begin with, because they're not exactly hard to find.
While one year is a long time for four characters to be released from a game with a base roster of at least 12, it's still better than the other Street Fighter statue line, which is still only at TWO releases.
These are officially non scale, but based on measurements they're probably around 1/10 in scale. Overall, they look pretty good but you don't really need to work that hard to find errors on the paint work.
I feel of the two, Juri worked out better. Both feature pretty good body sculpts, with Chun Li displaying some good musculature while the focus of Juri is on her baggy clothing. It IS interesting to note that per this statue, Juri has better guns than Chun Li does.
Anyway, back to the story. The difference between the two statues mainly lies in the face. I'm not talking aesthetics, because clearly they're different characters. But to me, Chun Li didn't make the transition as well, with some very muddled facial details which admittedly weren't particularly strong to begin with. It also seems like they reduced the intensity of the eye decals on Chun Li compared to the prototype.
Surprisingly, both statues, but more so Chun Li, experienced some warping, right out of the box, resulting in legs being splayed further apart than the base would suggest (these all have pegs on their feet and plug in). Fortunately (or unfortunately) the material were soft enough that I could squeeze the feet in, though I think it looks a bit warped and may require the hot water treatment so it looks a bit more naturally posed. It's not a huge detail (I mean it's not leaning) but it is a reminder of the price point and the history of industry and why prices spiked so better product could be made..

High quality exhibition lighting, subtle and atmospheric.
I think that my clor choices fit together really well, and it helps fill the spaces that were empty or lacking emphesis. So by adding color it makes the whole design feel together and nothing is really being left out.
a 367-foot (112 m), 33-story hotel in Los Angeles, California, constructed between 1974 and 1976.[6] It was designed by architect John C. Portman Jr.. The top floor has a revolving restaurant and bar. It was originally owned by investors that included a subsidiary of Japanese conglomerate Mitsubishi Corporation and John Portman & Associates. The building is managed by Aimbridge Hospitality (IHR), and is valued at $200 million.
The hotel and its architect John Portman have been the subject of several documentaries and academic analyses.[7][8]
Fredric Jameson discusses the hotel in his 1984 essay, "Postmodernism, or, the Cultural Logic of Late Capitalism," and in his 1991 book by the same name.[9][10] He writes that
the Bonaventura aspires to being a total space, a complete world, a kind of miniature city (and I would want to add that to this new total space corresponds a new collective practice, a new mode in which individuals move and congregate, something like the practice of a new and historically original kind of hyper-crowd).[11]
In his book Postmodern Geographies: The Reassertion of Space in Critical Social Theory (1989), Edward Soja describes the hotel as
a concentrated representation of the restructured spatiality of the late capitalist city: fragmented and fragmenting, homogeneous and homogenizing, divertingly packaged yet curiously incomprehensible, seemingly open in presenting itself to view but constantly pressing to enclose, to compartmentalize, to circumscribe, to incarcerate. Everything imaginable appears to be available in this micro-urb but real places are difficult to find, its spaces confuse an effective cognitive mapping, its pastiche of superficial reflections bewilder co-ordination and encourage submission instead. Entry by land is forbidding to those who carelessly walk but entrance is nevertheless encouraged at many different levels. Once inside, however, it becomes daunting to get out again without bureaucratic assistance. In so many ways, its architecture recapitulates and reflects the sprawling manufactured spaces of Los Angeles.[12]
The hotel is a 33-story building, with no floors numbered "7" or "13"; the top floor is therefore numbered "35". The four elevator banks (each containing three cars for a total of 12) are named by colors and symbols: Red Circle (the only one that goes to "35"; the other three only go to "32"), Yellow Diamond, Green Square, and Blue Triangle. The color-coded system of directions was a later addition, as visitors found the space confusing and hard to navigate.[13]
Several bronze plaques commemorate elevator scenes from three major films:
In the Line of Fire,[14][15] September 1993, "Green Square" elevator
True Lies,[15] September 1993, "Red Circle" and "Yellow Diamond" elevators
Forget Paris,[15] November 1994, "Yellow Diamond" elevator
It has been featured in many movies and television series over the years, including Interstellar,[16] Strange Days, Buck Rogers in the 25th Century (as part of the city of New Chicago), Wonder Woman,[17] Blue Thunder, It's a Living,[18] Starsky & Hutch, L.A. Law, The A-Team, Breathless, Matlock, This Is Spinal Tap, Nick of Time,[19] Rain Man,[19][20] Ruthless People,[19] Logan's Run,[19] My Fellow Americans,[19] Midnight Madness, Moonlighting (TV series), Showtime, Hard to Kill, The Lincoln Lawyer, Chuck, Heaven Can Wait, Xanadu, The New Dragnet, Time After Time, Moby Dick,[21] Zoolander,[22] Lethal Weapon 2,[19] The Fantastic Journey[23][24] and was destroyed (via special effects) in Escape from LA, Epicenter and San Andreas. The front of the hotel was also featured in the British children’s television series Tots Tv ‘American Adventure’ special where Tilly, Tom and Tiny went to explore a different country and were observing tall buildings and went onto the roof of the hotel to observe the view of Los Angeles.[25] You can see it under construction in the 1975 film The Wilderness Family (released a year before the hotel opened). In cartoon form, the building can be seen in the first shot of Jem in the episode "The Beginning", and in the anime Steins;Gate. In November 1979, the ABC soap opera General Hospital videotaped some on location scenes there dealing with Luke Spencer, played by Anthony Geary who was hired to assassinate Senator Mitch Williams. In 1999, Power Rangers Lost Galaxy used the building as the administration building of the space colony Terra Venture, with Red Ranger Leo falling from the building after a battle with main villain Trakeena.
In 2002, the hotel was the location for a Fear Factor stunt which involved crossing a bridge of plexiglass discs on cables suspended on the lobby's fifth floor.[26] The television series It's a Living was set in a restaurant atop the Bonaventure. The hotel is also showcased in episodes of CSI and its exterior can be seen in Americathon, Mission: Impossible III, Almighty Thor, Hancock, and at the beginning of the Lionel Richie "Dancing on the Ceiling" music video. The building made appearances in the 1991 Kylie Minogue music video Step Back in Time, the 1985 Survivor music video "The Search Is Over", the 2004 video game Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, the 2012 video game Call of Duty: Black Ops II (in the "Aftermath" multiplayer map) and in the 2013 video game Grand Theft Auto V with the name "Arcadius Business Center" (having three towers instead of four towers and featuring glass elevator animations).
The hotel was also used as a setting for R&B singer Usher's music video for the 2002 hit single, "U Don't Have to Call". A pivotal scene in the season four (2005) episode "Another Mister Sloane" of the espionage drama Alias took place in the Bonaventure Hotel as well, while it was also featured in season one (2017), episode five of another espionage drama, Counterpart. In 2021, Rihanna's "Savage x Fenty Show Vol. 3" was filmed entirely on location at the hotel.[27][28] The hotel also hosted the first task for the final leg of The Amazing Race 33, which aired in 2022.[26]
