THE SECRET CAVES OF GIZEH. Beneath the pyramids of Egypt lies a lost underworld of catacombs, hewn chambers and cave tunnels that have remained unexplored for hundreds of years. They are alluded to in ancient texts and Arab legends, but have been left unexplored until today. They have now been rediscovered and investigated for the first time. What exactly does this subterranean realm tell us about the pyramids, their relationship to the stars and the mythical origins of Egyptian civilization? Discover for yourself as we explore the "Lost Caves of Giza."

Een inspirerende en interactieve toekomstvisie

(een poging)

Via bovengenoemde link komt U op mijn blog Wikipedia Frisia Harlengis.

Dit wil ik als voorbeeld gebruiken voor een toekomstige website/blog over het Harlinger erfgoed.

Historie zit niet alleen in gebouwen, maar ook in de mensen. Een website/blog maakt het mogelijk om ook deze geschiedenis te horen en vast te leggen.

Doel is het verzamelen van de orale en materiële geschiedenis van Harlingen en de dorpen.

Deze zouden in de vorm van artikelen, video's en foto-reportages door inwoners van onze gemeente (en andere deskundigen) kunnen worden ingebracht.

De presentatie en toetsing zou plaats kunnen vinden door een deskundige redactie.

Zoals U op mijn blog ziet, zijn er ook al andere Harlingers, die op mijn blog publiceren. Dit zou kunnen worden gestimuleerd en zal daarna vanzelf groeien.

Dit vademecum van onze geschiedenis kan via internet worden geraadpleegd. Mijn simpele site heeft al duizenden lezers getrokken, tot in de Verenigde Staten en Canada aan toe. Het zou ook voor educatieve/cursorische doeleinden kunnen worden gebruikt.

Himmler's fascination with the occult led him to send envoys to Dalai's court in the 30s. The Nazi swastika was adopted from Tibetan Buddhism. Heinrich Harrer, the tutor of the current Dalai Lama of 7 years in Tibet fame, was a SS-Nazi. The SS was modeled on the Tibetan horsemen and the ruling Nazi elites were based on the cruel Tibetan aristocrats, who fled with the Dalai Lama to India after the 1959 rebellion. Many of these exiles and their descendants live in Dharamsala and the West and they form the back bone of the Free Tibet movement.

Charles Colson, key figure in Watergate scandal, dead at 80

WASHINGTON — Charles Colson, the tough-as-nails special counsel to President Richard Nixon who went to prison for his role in a Watergate-related case and became a Christian evangelical helping inmates, has died. He was 80.

Colson's death was confirmed by Jim Liske, the chief executive of the Lansdowne, Va.-based Prison Fellowship Ministries that Colson founded. Liske said the preliminary cause of death is complications from brain surgery Colson had at the end of March.

Colson, with his trademark horn-rimmed glasses, was known as the "evil genius" of the Nixon administration who once said he'd walk over his grandmother to get the president elected to a second term.

"I shudder to think of what I'd been if I had not gone to prison," Colson said in 1993. "Lying on the rotten floor of a cell, you know it's not prosperity or pleasure that's important, but the maturing of the soul."

President Obama pays tribute to Rosa Parks at Michigan fundraiser, sits on historic bus

President Obama gave tribute to Rosa Parks during a campaign stop in Michigan on Wednesday, taking time to sit on the historic bus where the civil rights heroine refused to give up her seat.
On Thursday, Macon Phillips, the White House's director of new media, tweeted out a powerful photo of Obama sitting alone on the bus, looking out of a window.
The vehicle is currently at the Henry Ford Museum in Dearborn, where Obama was holding a fundraiser.
"I just sat in there for a moment and pondered the courage and tenacity that is part of our very recent history, but is also part of that long line of folks who sometimes are nameless, oftentimes didn't make the history books, but who constantly insisted on their dignity, their share of the American dream," the country's first black President said.
Parks, who passed away in 2005 at the age of 92, refused to give up her bus seat to a white passenger in Montgomery, Ala., in 1955 — an act that helped spark the civil rights movement.
The trip to Michigan was Obama's second trip to the swing state this year.
After attending the museum event where about 600 people attended for $250 a pop, he headed to a smaller, 47-person fundraiser at Bingham Hills.

The world's first slide was made from only wood, and didn't feature side rails for safety.

Historic photographs have surfaced of the world’s very first playground slide, which was little more than a few planks of wood and a set of stairs.
Built in 1922 in Northamptonshire, England, the original slide was made entirely from wood and lacked side rails.
“These days, the health and safety brigade would have a fit if a slide like this was put in a playground,” said historian Linden Groves, who discovered the photographs.

Wicksteed's original design featured separate slides for boys and girls.

“But in those days, people took responsibility for themselves. If you fell off a slide and tore your trousers, you would get a clip round the ear from your dad, not a six-figure payout.”
The slide was created by Charles Wicksteed, who went on to manufacture a more modern version from steel and wood.

Wicksteed eventually created a model of the slide from steel and wood.

Wicksteed is quoted in one of his company catalogs in 1924:
“It was at first thought that children would hesitate about climbing so high a ladder; this has proved to be quite a mistake. They go up without fear or trembling and we have never had an accident of any sort, although tens of thousands of sliders use them.”
Wicksteed also introduced the curve at the end of the slide, so that children don’t speed straight into the ground.

A Master Opens the Door to an Empire

‘Dürer and Beyond’ at the Metropolitan Museum of Art

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

Hans Hoffman’s meticulous gouache of a hedgehog are examples of the bewildering styles and subjects in “Dürer and Beyond.”

By KAREN ROSENBERG

Published: April 19, 2012   

The title of a new exhibition, “Dürer and Beyond: Central European Drawings in The Metropolitan Museum of Art, 1400-1700,” presents a bit of a conundrum. How do we get beyond Albrecht Dürer (1471-1528), the ne plus ultra draftsman and all-around Northern Renaissance master, an artist so secure in his greatness that he painted himself as Jesus?

We don’t, at least not often in this show, which surveys the Met’s holdings of drawings made before 1700 by artists working in the Holy Roman Empire (an area that today encompasses Germany, Switzerland, Austria, the Czech Republic and parts of other countries). But the offerings should nevertheless entice viewers to look more closely at the art of Central Europe, which absorbed diverse religious and stylistic influences from Italian, Dutch and Flemish art.

The Met’s curators are certainly giving the region more attention. Most of the drawings on view were acquired fairly recently, over the last two decades. Just outside the exhibition, in the Robert Wood Johnson Jr. Gallery, is a spillover show of related drawings, prints and manuscripts that entered the collection too late to make it into the catalog.

“Dürer and Beyond” was organized by Stijn Alsteens and Freyda Spira, curators in the Met’s drawings and prints department. It includes about 100 drawings, supplemented by prints, illustrated books and decorative objects.

The show sets the stage for Dürer with a drawing by an artist he admired, Martin Schongauer, of a man whose upturned gaze is accentuated by the wide brim of his hat. It’s thought to be a character study, but the features are distinct and specific enough to give it the presence of a portrait.

Strong as this image is, it can’t compete with what is probably the Met’s most outstanding drawing by Dürer: his “Self-Portrait and Studies of the Artist’s Hand and a Pillow” (1493). On this sheet of sketches the young artist furrows his brow and purses his lips in a look of withering intensity; he wears the same expression in a famous early self-portrait painting in the Louvre, for which this drawing is probably a study.

His head is nonetheless overshadowed by a detailed and disproportionately large rendering of his left hand, and by an incongruous study of a squished pillow that occupies the bottom third of the page. Placed where his chest would be, it reads initially as an oversize heart. On the reverse side of the page (which is displayed in a double-sided frame) Dürer drew more pillows: six in all, scrunched and fluffed in various ways, their folds delineated by fishtail-like areas of cross-hatching.

ROME IN THE FIRST CENTURY: YEARS OF ERUPTION

UTRECHT - De reconstructie van de Romeinse boot 'de punter' wordt vandaag te water gelaten. De leerlingen van Stichting Bouwloods Utrecht hebben maandenlang aan de unieke boot gewerkt.

De punter werd vroeger gebruikt om handelswaar te vervoeren. De resten van zo'n boot werden vier jaar geleden gevonden in Leidsche Rijn. Volgens de Rijksdienst voor Archeologie, Cultuurlandschap en Monumenten (RACM) is het één van de belangrijkste scheepsarcheologische vondsten in ons land.

De 1800 oude scheepsresten werden in 2008 gevonden in dichtgeslibde rivierbedding dichtbij het Romeinse fort dat op de Hoge Woerd ten noorden van De Meern was gelegen. De resten liggen opgeslagen bij de RACM in Lelystad.

De reconstructie van het schip wordt gedoopt door Laetitia Griffith, oud-Kamerlid voor de VVD en lid van de Staatsraad Raad van State. De tewaterlating in het Maximapark is vandaag, omdat sponsor Vereniging van Notarissen in Utrecht het 200-jarige bestaan viert.
