After verifying that none of the 16 000 angry truck drivers were

blockading the road to Tiwanaku, we set out for a very fun day at the

ruins!

 

We grabbed a city bus/van to the cemetery district and then got into

another minivan heading to Tiwanaku. After waiting around for a while,

we set off, driving out of the city through the neighbouring

municipality of El Alto and then through the stunning Altiplano with

views of snowy mountains above the city. We chatted with a couple of

English people, also spending the day at the ruins. It never takes long

for people to think that the gulf islands are one of the weirdest places

they've ever heard of.

 

We hopped out of the van outside the ruins and bought some cookies for a

snack before entering the main site. It was almost deserted and

absolutely spectacular. We started by exploring Akapana, a large pyramid

made mainly from earth that was thought to have been the centre of the

city. Then we visited the semi-subterranean temple with carving of faces

jutting out from the walls. They are thought to represent the gods of

the cultures conquered by the Tiwanaku. Then, we spent a long time

oohing and awing over the incredible architecture of Kalasasaya, the

sacred centre of the city. The stone work was incredible, and it's

especially amazing in a culture without iron tools. There were ornate

doorways and statues, and a very sophisticated aqueduct system. We also

saw a huge mud alter that's still used for Aymara ceremonies at the

site. Our last stop in the main complex was Putini, which is thought to

be a burial ground. By this time, buses full of tourists were arriving,

but we managed to avoid them as they started to explore the site.

 

Next, we visited the Museo Litico which houses many of the statues

uncovered during the excavations of Tiwanaku. They were all incredible;

the Pachamama (or Mother Earth) statue was 7.3 meters tall and covered

from head to toe in details carvings. The style of lots of the statues

resembles totem poles, so that was a cool link between distant cultures.

 

It was past noon by now, so we decided to venture into the town of

Tiwanaku to find a cheap place to eat. After a delicious meal of soup

and rice, we found a store selling treats to the hoards of

turquoise-sweater-wearing school kids. We bought ice cream and then

headed towards the second complex of ruins: Puma Punku. We were the only

ones there for most of the time and it was magical. There was some

impressive stonework and it was super cool to walk around the earth

pyramid and see it from all angles.

 

Finally, we visited the ceramics museum, which was very busy with tour

groups. It was still cool though, to see the pottery and a few textiles

that had been used in the site.

 

Tired after such a fun day, we got on another mini-bus and headed back

to La Paz.

Finally made up my mind to create my own diary for 2012 a week ago, here I go sharing with you all! But first please give me a little support, my Dad recovered from prostate cancer but at the same time developed Parkinson's disease a few years ago. In the past week he has deteriorated a lot, bed bound finally, no more speech, I'm the last person he can recognize. It is so tough for Mom as a care taker. All I ask for is your sincere prayers, as you download this creation, for my Dad and Mom, so that he can go peacefully proud of his sons, and she can start to explore this new world with us. What a courageous woman she is.

Thanks to my Dad's dedication to Chinese painting and art, I had my implicit training early in life and became a visual person yet unafraid to look deep into the subject matters. For years, I bought diaries but none of them satisfied my visual and creative needs.

Since the beginning of the diary making business, every single diary is made by representing time in fixed grids. To challenge this right representation, after exploring in deep thoughts the essence of my own perfect diary, I present to you my Chronodex idea.

 

Come to think of it, the paper which makes up a diary originated from trees, when the sheets of paper are bound together in the middle, it is almost like foliages stemming from a tree's trunk. Each page is like a branch, each opened page is a week, each day is like a beautiful flower grew from that page, consist of petals of your day's time slices.

 

You may argue that this format is still slicing time into blocks and far from the fractal nature, but soon as you start using it, you will find that time is no longer right, instead you will find fluidity through free notations.

 

The more important time slices can be drawn larger, activities can be dots or pies (petals if you will) depending on duration or importance, space on a page is no longer limited to grids. Basically you can roam freely and be amazed how beautiful your week can be.

 

What's more is that your mind gradually deviate from the rigid format a typical diary imposes on you, reactivity soon flourishes. Imagine the effect happening in weeks! And I'm not kidding.

To grow your own diary, after downloading the PDF version of your choice, print it out double sided (duplex) in landscape mode on A4 papers. Be sure to print it out 100% without scale, left/right binding (try the first few pages on your printer and settings and you'll see what I mean). Check the sequence after the print out.

Next, cut away the left and right portion of the A4 paper according to the cut line.

Now here's the interesting part of the binding. Use a chisel to punch holes on both ends of the spine and stitch the pages up. You can staple them together just the same. This method will get you a bound notebook but ready for a cool bookmark which I will mention in a moment.

To create a bookmark, simple take a piece of hard paper, cut it the way I showed above. Slide it between the papers of the current week, the slide 90 degree up following the spine to have the tab exposed on top of the diary (I hope I'm describing it right). There you go! a bookmark with a tab extruding from the top of your diary.

 

This cool bookmark invention based on the way you bind your diary is so useful and flexible, you will find it amazing when you reach the 12th week of the year! Tell me about that in a few months.

The last part of my Chronodex journey was to make a cool diary cover. Thanks for my family's tolerance, I had a little free time in broad daylight having fun doing it, 2 cups of coffee, listening to audiobook through my iPhone/Jambox combo.

Small features are infused into the diary, I hope you will enjoy the little tibits, do explore the "Boarding pass to success" idea. If you are interested, I will be sharing the July - December version, which is still in stage zero. Fellow Scription reader Boris from Russia already had a taste of the Chronodex, so go ahead and try yours. Your feedback and comment is what keeps me going, please do pray.

In person and via photography, verified and corroborated with the most trustworthy, heavily credentialed, senior, and sane collectors I know--about a half dozen of them!!--that this "last cartouche" (the DAS is NOT a cartouche--no writing or letters! Check a dictionary for the old "Egyptian" correct definition and its basis if you doubt that... ) butt stock is authentic, albeit it's been sanded. Not too many dings. No cracks, no paint, weird Danish or other stampings...

 

The metal will be removed before I dump it for something I actually need.

 

Weirdly, this was about the very LAST item I was looking for or wanted when I stumbled across this, and upon cleanup, contacted the network of "usual suspects" because I no longer trust my eyesight on wood. Looking back, I doubt if I've seen two dozen of these. They're fairly close to being the least common of the letter cartouched butt stocks.

 

Funny story: ran into a stock, long ago, with no box or crossed cannons or anything, just "JLG", in about the right position. I bought it out of an estate. Thought it might be an "ultra-rare" marking. It was, in a way. The other confusing number was 9 digits in front of the rear swivel. It was Mister Grafton's Social Security number!! The "JLG" was his initials.

 

Last one I had was on an old D.C.M. rifle, from an estate, and had been surmarked with a DAS (Defense Acceptance Stamp). It, too, was absolutely authentic, and appeared on an all original rifle right in that low 4 million area where one would figure such things might've happened.

 

Anyway, it's a certainty. Not some loudmouth's assertion or slimy internet "proof"!! Strange find. There are handguards with it which "color match", but I remain unconvinced they're "correct" to it, and I have other uses for them, anyway.

The history of roses in the People's Garden

The People's Garden, located between the Imperial Palace and the ring road is famous for its beautiful roses:

1000 standard roses

4000 Floribunda,

300 rambling roses,

(Also called Rose Park) 200 shrub roses.

Noteworthy is the diversity: there are about 400 varieties, including very old plants:

1859 - Rubens

1913 - Pearl of the Vienna Woods

1919 - Jean C.N. Forestier

The above amounts are from the Federal Gardens. My own count has brought other results:

730 tree roses

2300 Floribunda

132 rambling roses

100 shrub roses

That's about 3300 roses in total. Approx. 270 species I was able to verify. Approx. 50 rose bushes were not labeled. Some varieties come very often, others only once or twice.

Molineux 1994

Rubens 1859

Medialis 1993

Swan lake 1968

Once flourished here Lilac and Rhododendron bushes

1823 People's Garden was opened with the Temple of Theseus. Then made ​​multiple extensions.

The part of today's "Rosarium" along the Ring Road was built in 1862. (Picture fence 1874)

What is so obvious to today's Vienna, was not always so: most of the beds in the People's Garden originally were planted with lilac and rhododendron.

Only after the second World War II it was converted to the present generous rose jewelry.

Since then grow along the ring side creepers, high stem and floribunda roses. On the side of Heroes Square, with the outputs, shrub roses were placed, among which there are also some wild roses.

1889 emerged the Grillparzer Monument.

(All the pictures you can see by clicking the link at the end of the side!)

Classifications of roses

(Wild roses have 7 sheets - prize roses 5 sheets)

English Rose

Florybunda

Hybrid Tea Rose

Rambling Rose

At the Roses in the People´s Garden are hanging labels (if they do not fall victim to vandals or for souvenirs) with the year indication of breeding, the name of breeding and botanical description:

Hybrid Tea Rose (TB): 1 master, 1 flower;

Florybunda (Flb): 1 strain, many flowers;

English Rose (Engl): mixture of old and modern varieties Tb and Flb.

Called Schlingrose, also climbing rose

Florybunda: 1 strain, many flowers (Donauprinzessin)

Shrub Roses - Floribunda - Tree roses - Climbing Roses

Even as a child, we hear the tale of Sleeping Beauty, but roses have no thorns, but spines. Thorns are fused directly to the root and can not be easily removed as spines (upper wooden containers called).

All roses belong to the bush family (in contrast to perennials that "disappear" in the winter). Nevertheless, there is the term Shrub Rose: It's a chronological classification of roses that were on the market before 1867. They are very often planted as a soloist in a garden, which them has brought the name "Rose Park".

Hybrid Tea Rose: 1 master, 1 flower (rose Gaujard )

Other classifications are:

(High) standard roses: roses are not grafted near the ground, but at a certain strain level. With that, the rose gardener sets the height of the crown.

Floribunda roses : the compact and low bushy roses are ideal for group planting on beds

Crambling roses: They have neither roots nor can they stick up squirm. Their only auxiliary tool are their spines with which they are entangled in their ascent into each other

English Rose: mixture of old varieties, hybrid tea and Florybunda (Tradescanth)

4000 Floribunda

Floribunda roses are hardy, grow compact, knee-high and bushy, are durable and sturdy

There are few smelling varieties

Polyantha classification: a tribe, many small flowers; Florybunda: a tribe, many big blossoms

New concept of color: from red to light yellow

The thousands Floribunda opposite of Grillparzer Monument shimmer (still) in many colors. From historical records, however, is indicated that there was originally a different color scheme for the Floribunda than today: At the entrance of the Burgtheater side the roses were dark and were up to Grillparzer monument ever brighter - there they were then already white.

This color range they want again, somewhat modified, resume with new plantings: No white roses in front of the monument, but bright yellow, so that Grillparzer monument can better stand out. It has already begun, there was heavy frost damage during the winter 2011/12.

Colorful roses

2011: white and pink roses

2012: after winter damage new plantings in shades of yellow .

Because the domestic rose production is not large enough, the new, yellow roses were ordered in Germany (Castor).

Goldelse, candlelight, Hanseatic city of Rostock.

Watering

Waterinr of the Floribunda in the morning at 11 clock

What roses do not like at all, and what attracts pests really magically, the foliage is wet. Therefore, the Floribunda roses are in the People's Garde poured in the morning at 11 clock, so that the leaves can dry thoroughly.

Ground sprinklers pouring only the root crown, can not be used because the associated hoses should be buried in the earth, and that in turn collide with the Erdanhäufung (amassing of earth) that is made for winter protection. Choosing the right time to do it, it requires a lot of sense. Is it too early, so still too warm, the bed roses begin to drive again, but this young shoots freeze later, inevitably, because they are too thin.

1000 Tree roses

Most standard roses are found in the rose garden.

During the renovation of the Temple of Theseus the asphalt was renewed in 2011, which was partially only a few centimeters thick, and so was the danger that trucks with heavy transports break into. Due to this construction site the entire flower bed in front had to be replaced.

Now the high-stem Rose Maria Theresia is a nice contrast to the white temple, at her feet sits the self-cleaning floribunda aspirin. Self-cleaning means that withered flowers fall off and rarely maintenance care is needed.

Pink 'Maria Theresa' and white 'aspirin' before the temple of Theseus

Standard tree rose Maria Theresa

Floribunda aspirin

The concept of the (high) standard roses refers to a special type of rose decoration. Suitable varieties of roses are not grafted near the ground, but at a certain height of the trunk. With that the rose gardener sets the height of the crown fixed (60 cm, 90 cm, 140 cm)

Plantings - Pests - Winter Care

Normally about 50 roses in the People's Garden annually have to be replaced because of winter damages and senility. Till a high standard rose goes on sale, it is at least 4 years old. With replantings the soil to 50 cm depth is completely replaced (2/3 basic soil, 1/3 compost and some peat ).

Roses have enemies, such as aphids. Against them the Pirimor is used, against the Buchsbaumzünsler (Box Tree Moth, Cydalima perspectalis) Calypso (yet - a resistance is expected).

In popular garden roses are sprayed with poison, not only when needed, but also as a precaution, since mildew and fire rose (both are types of fungi) also overwinter.

Therefore it is also removed as far as possible with the standard roses before packing in winter the foliage.

Pest Control with Poison

The "Winter Package " first is made with paper bags, jute bags, then it will be pulled (eg cocoa or coffee sacks - the commercially available yard goods has not proven).

They are stored in the vault of the gardener deposit in the Burggarten (below the Palm House). There namely also run the heating pipes. Put above them, the bags after the winter can be properly dried.

Are during the winter the mice nesting into the packaged roses, has this consequences for the crows want to approach the small rodents and are getting the packaging tatty. It alreay has happened that 500 standard roses had to be re-wrapped.

"Winter Package" with paper and jute bags

300 ambling roses

The Schlingrosen (Climbing Roses) sit "as a framing" behind the standard roses.

Schlingrose pearl from the Vienna Woods

Schlingrose Danube

Schlingrose tenor

Although climbing roses are the fastest growing roses, they get along with very little garden space.

They have no rootlets as the evergreen ivy, nor can they wind up like a honeysuckle. Their only auxiliary tool are their spines with which they are entangled in their ascent mesh.

Climbing roses can reach stature heights of 2 to 3 meters.

4 x/year fertilizing

4 times a year, the soil is fertilized. From August, but no more, because everything then still new drives would freeze to death in winter. Well-rotted horse manure as fertilizer was used (straw mixed with horse manure, 4 years old). It smelled terrible, but only for 2 days.

Since the City of Vienna may only invest more plant compost heap (the EU Directive prohibits animal compost heap on public property), this type of fertilization is no longer possible to the chagrin of gardeners, and roses.

In the people garden in addition is foliar fertilizer used (it is sprayed directly on the leaves and absorbed about this from the plant).

Finishes in the Augarten

Old rose varieties are no longer commercially available. Maybe because they are more sensitive, vulnerable. Thus, the bud of Dr. F. Debat already not open anymore, if it has rained twice.

 

Roses need to be replaced in the People's Garden, this is sometimes done through an exchange with the Augarten Palace or the nursery, where the finishes are made. Previously there were roses in Hirschstetten and the Danube Park, but the City of Vienna has abandoned its local rose population (not to say destroyed), no exchange with these institutions is possible anymore.

Was formerly in breeding the trend to large flowers, one tends to smell roses again today. Most varieties show their resplendent, lush flowers only once, early in the rose-year, but modern varieties are more often blooming.

200 shrub roses

Some shrub roses bloom in the rose garden next to the Grillparzer Monument

Most of the shrub or park roses can be found along the fence to Heroes' Square. These types are so old, and there are now so many variations that even a species of rose connoisseurs assignment is no longer possible in many cases.

The showy, white, instensiv fragrant wild rose with its large umbels near des Triton Fountain is called Snow White.

Shrub roses are actually "Old Garden Roses" or "old roses", what a time

classification of roses is that were on the market before 1867.

Shrub roses are also called park roses because they are often planted as a soloist in a park/garden.

They grow shrubby, reaching heights up to 2 meters and usually bloom only 1 x per year.

The Renner- Rose

The most famous bush rose sits at the exit to Ballhausplatz before the presidential office.

It is named after the former Austrian President Dr. Karl Renner

When you enter, coming from the Ballhausplatz, the Viennese folk garden of particular note is a large rose bush, which is in full bloom in June.

Before that, there is a panel that indicates that the rose is named after Karl Renner, founder of the First and Second Republic. The history of the rose is a bit of an adventure. President Dr. Karl Renner was born on 14 in December 1870 in the Czech village of Untertannowitz as the last of 18 children of a poor family.

Renner output rose at Ballhausplatz

He grew up there in a small house, in the garden, a rose bush was planted.

In summer 1999, the then Director of the Austrian Federal Gardens, Peter Fischer Colbrie was noted that Karl Renner's birthplace in Untertannowitz - Dolni Dunajovice today - and probably would be demolished and the old rosebush as well fall victim to the demolition.

High haste was needed, as has already been started with the removal of the house.

Misleading inscription " reconstruction"?

The Federal Gardens director immediately went to a Rose Experts on the way to Dolni Dunajovice and discovered "as only bright spot in this dismal property the at the back entrance of the house situated, large and healthy, then already more than 80 year old rose bush".

After consultation with the local authorities Peter Fischer Colbrie received approval, to let the magnificent rose bush dig-out and transport to Vienna.

Renner Rose is almost 100 years old

A place had been found in the Viennese People´s Garden, diagonal vis-à-vis the office where the president Renner one resided. On the same day, the 17th August 1999 the rosebush was there planted and in the following spring it sprouted already with flowers.

In June 2000, by the then Minister of Agriculture Molterer and by the then Mayor Zilk was a plaque unveiled that describes the origin of the rose in a few words. Meanwhile, the "Renner-Rose" is far more than a hundred years old and is enjoying good health.

After verifying that none of the 16 000 angry truck drivers were

blockading the road to Tiwanaku, we set out for a very fun day at the

ruins!

 

We grabbed a city bus/van to the cemetery district and then got into

another minivan heading to Tiwanaku. After waiting around for a while,

we set off, driving out of the city through the neighbouring

municipality of El Alto and then through the stunning Altiplano with

views of snowy mountains above the city. We chatted with a couple of

English people, also spending the day at the ruins. It never takes long

for people to think that the gulf islands are one of the weirdest places

they've ever heard of.

 

We hopped out of the van outside the ruins and bought some cookies for a

snack before entering the main site. It was almost deserted and

absolutely spectacular. We started by exploring Akapana, a large pyramid

made mainly from earth that was thought to have been the centre of the

city. Then we visited the semi-subterranean temple with carving of faces

jutting out from the walls. They are thought to represent the gods of

the cultures conquered by the Tiwanaku. Then, we spent a long time

oohing and awing over the incredible architecture of Kalasasaya, the

sacred centre of the city. The stone work was incredible, and it's

especially amazing in a culture without iron tools. There were ornate

doorways and statues, and a very sophisticated aqueduct system. We also

saw a huge mud alter that's still used for Aymara ceremonies at the

site. Our last stop in the main complex was Putini, which is thought to

be a burial ground. By this time, buses full of tourists were arriving,

but we managed to avoid them as they started to explore the site.

 

Next, we visited the Museo Litico which houses many of the statues

uncovered during the excavations of Tiwanaku. They were all incredible;

the Pachamama (or Mother Earth) statue was 7.3 meters tall and covered

from head to toe in details carvings. The style of lots of the statues

resembles totem poles, so that was a cool link between distant cultures.

 

It was past noon by now, so we decided to venture into the town of

Tiwanaku to find a cheap place to eat. After a delicious meal of soup

and rice, we found a store selling treats to the hoards of

turquoise-sweater-wearing school kids. We bought ice cream and then

headed towards the second complex of ruins: Puma Punku. We were the only

ones there for most of the time and it was magical. There was some

impressive stonework and it was super cool to walk around the earth

pyramid and see it from all angles.

 

Finally, we visited the ceramics museum, which was very busy with tour

groups. It was still cool though, to see the pottery and a few textiles

that had been used in the site.

 

Tired after such a fun day, we got on another mini-bus and headed back

to La Paz.

Dr. Robert Weems, emeritus paleontologist for the USGS verifies the recently discovered dinosaur track found on the NASA Goddard Space Flight Center campus.

 

This imprint shows the right rear foot of a nodosaur - a low-slung, spiny leaf-eater - apparently moving in haste as the heel did not fully settle in the cretaceous mud, according to dinosaur tracker Ray Stanford. It was found recently on NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center campus and is being preserved for study.

As I am a Sony Alpha user, I would like to express my feeling for A7 Series camera that I like:

- Size and weight very light and easier to grab for my hand and more handy

- Silent shutter, BSI sensor 5 axis in-body stabilization and the possibility to use also with E-mount, A-mount and all brands.

- Visualize directly in viewfinder how the image will end up. I don’t have to verify it all the time, I am more confident in your settings, I save a lot of time, As I can see what your picture will exactly.

- Focus Peaking highlights the edges of the subject which is in focus, it's really useful for me.

- Whether I shoot macro, wildlife, concerts or whatever, it’s a very convenient means to get original angles and more creative pictures on the ground or above a crowd.

- Image Quality and Sensor Performances.

- The NFC and WiFi feature is to be able to use one’s smartphone as a smart remote and copy image. In fact, I don’t have to stand behind my camera to take the picture.

- The short distance between the sensor and the lens is one of mirrorless’ best advantages. It allows the use of whichever lens I want via an adapter. There are adapters for all existing brands.

After verifying that none of the 16 000 angry truck drivers were

blockading the road to Tiwanaku, we set out for a very fun day at the

ruins!

 

We grabbed a city bus/van to the cemetery district and then got into

another minivan heading to Tiwanaku. After waiting around for a while,

we set off, driving out of the city through the neighbouring

municipality of El Alto and then through the stunning Altiplano with

views of snowy mountains above the city. We chatted with a couple of

English people, also spending the day at the ruins. It never takes long

for people to think that the gulf islands are one of the weirdest places

they've ever heard of.

 

We hopped out of the van outside the ruins and bought some cookies for a

snack before entering the main site. It was almost deserted and

absolutely spectacular. We started by exploring Akapana, a large pyramid

made mainly from earth that was thought to have been the centre of the

city. Then we visited the semi-subterranean temple with carving of faces

jutting out from the walls. They are thought to represent the gods of

the cultures conquered by the Tiwanaku. Then, we spent a long time

oohing and awing over the incredible architecture of Kalasasaya, the

sacred centre of the city. The stone work was incredible, and it's

especially amazing in a culture without iron tools. There were ornate

doorways and statues, and a very sophisticated aqueduct system. We also

saw a huge mud alter that's still used for Aymara ceremonies at the

site. Our last stop in the main complex was Putini, which is thought to

be a burial ground. By this time, buses full of tourists were arriving,

but we managed to avoid them as they started to explore the site.

 

Next, we visited the Museo Litico which houses many of the statues

uncovered during the excavations of Tiwanaku. They were all incredible;

the Pachamama (or Mother Earth) statue was 7.3 meters tall and covered

from head to toe in details carvings. The style of lots of the statues

resembles totem poles, so that was a cool link between distant cultures.

 

It was past noon by now, so we decided to venture into the town of

Tiwanaku to find a cheap place to eat. After a delicious meal of soup

and rice, we found a store selling treats to the hoards of

turquoise-sweater-wearing school kids. We bought ice cream and then

headed towards the second complex of ruins: Puma Punku. We were the only

ones there for most of the time and it was magical. There was some

impressive stonework and it was super cool to walk around the earth

pyramid and see it from all angles.

 

Finally, we visited the ceramics museum, which was very busy with tour

groups. It was still cool though, to see the pottery and a few textiles

that had been used in the site.

 

Tired after such a fun day, we got on another mini-bus and headed back

to La Paz.
