Sightseeing: Qinghai Lake, Cruise on Qinghai Lake
Today you will visit to the Qinghai Lake and have a cruise on Qinghai Lake. It is a saline lake situated in the province of Qinghai, and is the largest lake in China. It is located about 100 km west of the provincial capital of Xining at 3,205 m (10,515 feet) above sea level in a depression of the Tibetan Plateau in the traditional Tibetan province of Amdo. Twenty-three rivers and streams empty into Qinghai Lake. Scenery in Qinghai Lake varies according to seasons. Summer and autumn are the most comfortable weather conditions and the lake's scenery is most beautiful during these seasons.
Day 3 Xining to Overnight train (B, L)
Transfer via: Overnight train on our arrangement
Sightseeing: Ta'er Monastery
After breakfast, have a visit to Ta'er Monastery. It is one of the six great monasteries of the Yellow Hat sect of Tibetan Buddhism, built in 1557 on sacred land, still quite active with 600 monks. It is the birthplace of Tsong Khapa, founder of the Yellow Hat (Gelupa sect), and is known for its sculptures of human figures, animals and landscapes carved out of Yak Butter.
Then you will be transferred back to Qinghai railway station to take overnight train K9801 (14:56pm-15:40pm+1) for Lhasa.
Day 4 Overnight train to Lhasa
After your arrival in Lhasa you will be met by your local guide and then be transferred to the hotel. Take the rest of the day for free, to adapt yourself to the high altitude.
Day 5 Lhasa (B, L)
Sightseeing: Potala Palace, Jokhang Temple, Barkhore Street
We will go on a full day visit of Potala Palace. It is the greatest monumental structure all over Tibet. This ancient architectural complex is considered as a model of Tibetan architecture. Located on the Red Hill in Lhasa, it is 3,700 meters above sea level and covers an area of over 360,000 square meters. The palace has 13 stories, and is 117 meters high. In 641, Songtsan Gambo, ruler of the Tubo Kingdom, built the Potala Palace for Princess Wencheng of the Tang Dynasty, whom he was soon to marry.
Then we'll visit the Jokhang Temple, the spiritual center of Tibet. Every day, pilgrims from every corner of Tibet trek a long distance to the temple. The sacred image of Jowo Sakyamuni is the most venerated and beautiful image all over Tibet
After lunch in a local restaurant, we will visit Barkhor Street, which is the oldest street in Lhasa as well as the center of old Lhasa which remains very traditional. Located in the old area of Lhasa City, Tibet, Barkhor Street is a very ancient round street surrounding the Jokhang Temple. Tibetan people are very proud of it. As a symbol of Lhasa, this street is also a must-see place.
Day 6 Lhasa (B, L)
Sightseeing: Sera Monastery, Norbulingka, Drepung Monastery
In the morning we will visit the Sera Monastery, around 5 km north of central Lhasa, which was, along with Drepung, one of Lhasa's two great Gelugpa monasteries. Its once huge monastic population of about 5000 monks has now been reduced to several hundred.
Then we will visit Norbulingka Park; Norbulingka meaning "Jeweled Garden", the Summer Palace of the Dalai Lamas. The gardens are poorly tended and the palaces themselves are something of an anticlimax, especially as most rooms are currently closed to the public.
Our next stop will be Drepung Monastery. It is known as the most important monastery of Gelugpa in Tibetan Buddhism. It is considered as one of the 'Three Great Monasteries' (the other two are the Ganden Monastery and the Sera Monastery.
At last we will arrive at a local Tibetan Family. Common Tibetan people will welcome you to their homes; greet you in their traditional way and you will taste their typical food. You can feel Tibetan culture and religion vividly.
Day 7 Lhasa / Chengdu (B)
Transfer via: Overnight train on your own arrangement
Enjoy some leisure time until our local guide will transfer you to railway station to take overnight train T24 (13:10pm-07:57am+1) for Chengdu.
Day 8 Chengdu (B, L)
Sightseeing: Wuhou Memorial Temple, Jinli Street
Arrive in Chengdu in the morning, upon your arrival in Chengdu you will be met by your local guide and then be transferred to your hotel for check in and have breakfast.
And then you will visit the Wuhou Memorial Temple. The Temple is dedicated to Zhuge Liang, the Martial Marquis of Shu in the Three Kingdoms. His outstanding intelligence place Zhuge Liang above all emperors, generals, and ministers in history.
Afterwards you will take a walk along Jinli Street which is particularly representative for this city. It is recorded that as already during Qin Dynasty (221 BC - 206 BC), Jinli Street was the most famous place for baldachin - a rich, ornate cloth. During Shu Kingdom (221-263) it was one of the busiest commercial streets. Hence, it is known as 'First Street of the Shu Kingdom'. In order to reclaim the street's prosperity of former days, it was restored with contributions from the Wuhou Memorial Temple and was opened to public in October of 2004.
Day 9 Chengdu / Departure (B, L)
Transfer via: Flight on your own arrangement
Sightseeing: Chengdu Panda Breeding Research Base, Thatched Cottage of Dufu, Wangjianglou Park
This morning we will visit the Chengdu Panda Breeding Research Base, which was built to imitate the wild ecological environment of pandas. It covers a space of 92 acres, with a green coverage of 96 percent. The base created a perfect ecological environment for the living and breeding of pandas and other precious and rare wild animals. It breeds over 20 pandas and lesser pandas, black-necked cranes, white cranes and others.
Then we will visit the Thatched Cottage of Dufu, located by the side of the Huanhua Stream in Chengdu's western suburb, will be our first stop today. It was the residence of Dufu, the great poet of the Tang Dynasty when he took refuge in Chengdu. Du Fu (712-70 AD),one of China's most famous poets, left home at the tender age of 20, becoming a court official at the former capital in Chang'an (near Xi'an). Du Fu's civil service duties did not last long however, and he was captured by rebels and forced to flee the city for Chengdu after only a few years. It was in Chengdu, at this small and simple house, that Du Fu was inspired to write more than 200 poems which are regarded today as masterpieces of realist poetry.
Finally we will take a walk around Wangjianglou Park, and enjoy the beautiful nature there. Afterwards you will be transferred to the airport to take your flight to the next destination.

We are back home and I just wanted to send you a note and let you know again how pleased we were with the tour package that you put together for us. It was last minute and I realize this made things more difficult for you. Everything worked out so very well!
All of our guides were wonderful. We wanted to send a special letter to let you know that we were most impressed with our last guide, Mr. Yak (Tserang). He was with us for the Tiger Leaping Gorge hike and then in Shangri La. He was the high light of our trip! Mr. Yak was so very helpful, knowledgable about the culture and the area and he was tremendously thoughtful and professional. Joe and I have traveled the world quite extensively and can say that Mr. Yak was one of the best guides we have ever experienced.
We certainly will reach out to you again when we are ready for our next trip to China.
Thank you,
Juliana Jamail

Client's information: Charlie Kath, USA
I wish to THANK YOU for making our visit to China the very positive visit that it was. The itinerary was rich with what China is all about. You kept us busy and I thank you for that.
All of the local guides were outstanding. They were always very timely, right where they needed to be each and every time. Besides being punctual I found each of them to be wonderful people who represent China in such a positive way. Thank you! Thank you!!
I'm so happy that we finally got to meet each other. We worked on this adventure for about 2 1/2 years and the itinerary needed to be revised several times. I appreciate your patience and I thank you for that.
We're now friends and that will of course continue. I hope to visit both Mongolia via a tour and also, the Silk Road. Hopefully you can put together a 2 week tour itinerary for both of those places. When I visit Morocco I would like Beijing included in such a visit.
You are a delightful young woman and I'm so happy that we are friends.
My best to you Sandy.

Great post and AMEN to that! I always feel guilty because I can't get the kids everything they want and my time has been so short this year I haven't done everything I usually would, YET. But you're totally right! No more guilt!

Hi, Richella, oh your tree is beautiful, whether or not it is fully decorated yet. I think blogging just puts even MORE pressure on all of us than before we got sucked into this world. I love your thoughts & message, so true. We do need to let go of the expectations (and guilt) and enjoy the season for what it really is. Hope, redemption, peace. xoxo

Beautifully said Richella. This year, I'm feeling more guilty for not making more gifts as opposed to just going out & buying them & I know I need to let go of that. Thank you for that reminder. And your tree is just stunning all lit up :-)

- Amanda @ Serenity Now said...
How perfect because I was thinking of this same thing earlier, feeling GUILTY as I sat in the Chick-fil-a drive thru with the girls...feeling guilty for dragging them out running errands with me, and feeling guilty for taking an easy out and buying lunch instead of coming home to make it. :s Thank you, thank you.
Your tree is beautiful, by the way. :)

Amen, Dear Richella! This is a wonderful reminder of how Jesus has taken our guilt from us and we're free in Him!

Perfect Richella! Thanks so much for bringing it all into perspective in such a beautiful and grace filled way. My biggest issue as a believer has been dealing with perpetual guilt over just about everything, big or small. I am finally at a place where I don't just know that incredible forgiveness and mercy in my head but I feel it in my heart and soul too!
Bless you for sharing this today!

Richella your tree is looking lovely! My dear, I have my tree up but not one ornament on it yet not even the lights. We spent hours working on a puzzle yesterday when we could have (some might say should have) been decorating the tree. I think blogging and all these parties puts pressure on people to have stuff ready and then they end up not enjoying the process.
I hope you have a happy and blessed Christmas!

You are so beautiful. I always come to your blog and you have always written something so meaningful and thought provoking. I don't know if you know how much of a testimony and an encourager you are. I am always uplifted and educated when I read your post.

Trail details
Grade of Trail:
- Demanding
Trail Waymarking:
Length of trail:8 miles
Trail is currently open
Trail description
The summit of Deadwater Fell lies at just under 1900 feet (571 metres) and straddles the border between Scotland and England.
The spectacular panoramic views from the top are now available not only for cyclists to enjoy but also walkers. Starting from Kielder Castle, this trail follows both forest road and surfaced trail to access the cresting open moorland above the forest.
The uphill climb is well worth the effort as the views on a clear day stretch all the way from the Lake District to the Pentland Hills near Edinburgh and even over to the North Sea coast.
Using an OS map, the more adventurous can plot a route to Kielder Stone and onto Kielderhead Moor for a full day's walking. Please note this walk has fairly strenuous sections in places. Walkers should be fully prepared for the conditions and should anticipate the potential for dramatic changes in the weather.
A shelter at the summit ('Specere') will at least give you somewhere dry to enjoy your flask and sandwich if the Northumberland weather does it's worst!

Clear all the way to within 100 feet of summit,
fog then whiteout for 10 minutes,cleared to reveal fantastic views. Well worth the effort to get up there. Much more sedate than the mountain bike a few years ago. Will be back when it warms up. Bonus of no midges at this time of year.
5 StarsVanessa, 28/Sep/2015
Well worth the effort to get to the top as the views are amazing. I definitely think that the length of the walk is more likely to be around
7.5 miles.
4 StarsHelen , 19/Aug/2015
Good walk but we measured it on a walking app on our phone. It was 8.6 miles long. Way markers are fine now.

Daureb Craft Centre / Uis Information Centre
Museums Namibia
The small stone information centre is next to the small crafts factor, in Uis, where most of the products for sale in the shop are made, so visitors can meet and talk to the crafters. A `Township Tour' of Uis can also be arranged upon request. The project was established by NACOBTA.
This small lodge is located between Outjo and Khorixas - it was one of the first guest farms opened in Namibia

Queer Film and the Film Festival Circuit
by Skadi Loist — Universität Hamburg
September 14, 2010 – 00:01
Curator's Note
Since May 2010, the most prestigious film festival, le Festival de Cannes, has a queer film award, the Queer Palm. Cannes is not the only A-list festival to highlight queer film. The "mother" of queer film awards, the Teddy, has been given out at the Berlinale since 1987 to push gay and lesbian films beyond underground and increase awareness both within film industry and general public. Two decades passed until another A-festival created such a prize: in 2007 the Queer Lion at the Mostra in Venice followed suit.
The time span of those 20 years – between 1987 and 2007 – encompasses the complex relationship between queer cinema and the film festival circuit. In the 1980s, in a climate of an active LGBT movement, the production of (independent) gay and lesbian cinema increased and queer film festivals were founded (in North America and Western Europe). In the festival season 1991/92, innovative, edgy films with a queer note travelled the circuit and won prestigious awards at Sundance, Berlin, Toronto. This led film critic B Ruby Rich to coin the term "New Queer Cinema," for a wave that quickly became a niche market, helping the proliferation of queer film festivals worldwide and the growth of an unprecedented queer film (festival) ecosystem, with specialized distributors and programmers with their own networks and meetings at larger festivals (Queer Lounge at Sundance; the traditional Queer programmers meeting at Berlinale).
Why do we need queer film awards now? Festival awards add value to a film, function as seal of quality, which is used to promote the film, create buzz and audience. Queer film awards, even as "non-official" festival awards, ideally do the same and add a focus on sexuality/gender within the heteronormative film world. If they are not discounted as "ghetto awards," they might be a way for arthouse distributors to access an extra market: the parallel queer film festival exhibition circuit. But: Have queer film festivals started out as arenas of community formation and counter-representation to become another revenue arm for the film industry?

festival as purgatory?
by Karen Petruska — University of California, Santa Barbara
September 14, 2010 – 10:34
Thanks, Skadi, for opening up these important questions. Drawing from Virginia's post yesterday in addition to yours, I am intrigued the notion that the structure of the festival works to construct barriers. Be it auteurism or the ghettoization of minority groups, festivals in their structure may determine what is seen, by whom, and within what context.
But I think your post wants to find a more positive spin on the function of awards. Which necessarily begs the question—what is the end goal of showing at a festival if not broader distribution? What has been the success of festival awards in leading to regional or national exhibition opportunities? Does the parallel queer film festival circuit work towards or against that end?
Does community building inevitably suffer from submitting to the economic realities of the industry?
Community and commodification
by Robert Moses Peaslee — Texas Tech University
September 14, 2010 – 18:34
So rich, this.
In the fieldwork I've been doing, I've found the tension you both describe to be one of the overwhelming dimensions of the festival project. Perhaps, as Matt suggested, there are some festivals (Cannes, Toronto) where the industry element, and the auteurist bent that often comes with it, baldly predominates. In such contexts, perhaps the imperative to establish a community that understands itself as counter-representative with regard to Hollywood (or mainstream film, if you like) is more or less absent.
But festivals are inherently, I would argue, about community — the spatial and cultural communities that host them and thereby become something other than what they were prior, the communities of social capital that bring the festival into being via a panoply of individual and collective practices, the communities of "fans" that come to see the festival as "theirs" and increasingly (always) subject to interlopers and poseurs (usually stinking of corporate influence), the communities of wage laborers and volunteers that converge in space and time to produce the ephemeral, etc. Whither a fest positions itself with regard to the mainstream changes little about this general characteristic.
But there is, of course, the delicate matter of authenticity and the value it generates. If a festival (or a comic-con, or an expo) begins as an expression of counter-representation along lines of sexuality, gender, nationality, ethnicity, religion, genre, or taste, how can growth occur in such a way as to avoid the (real or imagined) deterioration of that authenticity? At what point does a festival (as is so often lamented with reference to Sundance) sell out?
On the problem of festivals & counterpublics
by Brendan Kredell — Northwestern University
September 16, 2010 – 15:37
Skadi, fascinating questions. It raises for me a larger point, which we've all been dancing around here - in terms of critical utility, we presume to gain quite a bit by talking about film festivals along common terms - though we recognize differences amongst types of festivals.
But are we also losing something in that process? You point to a really interesting point of overlap between smaller, community-oriented festivals that have organized to mobilize (or even form) cinematic counterpublics, and the larger capital-F Festivals that serve gatekeeper functions for film culture. But by looking towards these points of intersection, might we also be overlooking the ways that film festivals diverge? If we are thinking about festivals in terms of their ability to organize counterpublics, shouldn't we be thinking more horizontally about patterns of cultural consumption - so that, for instance, it might be more productive to think of Inside Out (Toronto's LGBT fest) alongside the Queer Arts & Culture Festival, rather than the Toronto International Film Festival? Or, by stressing counterpublics, do we only end up affirming the ghettoization of alternative cinemas that you refer to above?
And, of course, there's the ever thorny nature of your closing question - even if we grant that queer cinema has become "another revenue arm for the film industry," is that categorically a bad thing? There was a lot more money sloshing about in the American independent cinema during the 1990s and 2000s than there was previously, in no small part because of its "migration to the mainstream," as Chris Holmlund put it. But that also meant that a lot of films were produced that might not have otherwise…

Northwestern Ontario's largest music festival, Harbourfest, is moving from three nights to two nights and Harbourfest President Sandra Ivanowich is excited by the possibilities. "We want to bring in bigger names to Kenora for Harbourfest, hopefully by making this change we can do that," she says.
When asked about the 2018 line-up, Ivanowich noted that the Board has nothing set in stone yet. "We are working on it everyday. We should have something to announce in a few weeks," she adds,
In past years, Harbourfest has played host to; Bret Michaels, Daughtry, Three Days Grace, Doc Walker, Dallas Smith, Streetheart and more. Harbourfest 2018 is scheduled for Saturday August 4 and Sunday August 5 under the Whitecap Pavilion on Kenora's Harbourfront.

EuroPharma (Terry Naturally) Dyflaminol
Healthy Inflammation Response - 60 capsules
Formerly Curamin 8X
EuroPharma Terry Naturally Dyflaminol encourages healthy inflammation response. Dyflaminol combines BCM-95 high absorption curcumin with two potent, standardized herbal extracts - BosPure boswellia and ginger - to provide optimal suport for a healthy inflammation response throughout the body. DLPA enhances brain endorphin activity, which plays an important role in pain relief.
EuroPharm Dyflaminol - How it Works:
Dyflaminol combines three herbal extract – ginger, curcumin and boswellia – known for their ability to support a healthy inflammation repsonse with DLPA, an amino acid which acts in a unique way to promote mood.
- DLPA - DL-phenylalanine is an amino acid consisting of equal parts D-phenylalanine and L-phenylalanine. D-phenylalanine inhibits the breakdown of compounds called enkephalins. Enkephalins are associated with positive mood and have been shown to relieve occasional muscle pain due to exercise or overuse. L-phenylalanine is converted into tyrosine, which in turn is used to produce the brain chemicals norepinephrine and dopamine.
- Boswellia (Boswellia serrata) - Clinically tested boswellia (BosPure) helps modulate the activity of the enzyme 5-LOX (lipoxygenase). A compound (beta boswellic acid) found in boswellia which interferes with its beneficial activity has been removed, greatly increasing the effectiveness of this extract.
- Curcumin (Curcuma longa) - Curcumin, a compound found in the spice turmeric, supports multiple pathways in the body and is a potent antioxidant. Some of these benefits include; immune system modulation, protection from oxidative stress, and support for a healthy inflammation response. The specialized extract in this formula has up to 10 times the absorption of standard curcumin extracts.
- Ginger (Zingiber officinale) - Ginger contains beneficial compounds called gingerols. Research has shown that one mechanism of action is to modulate the both the LOX (lipoxygenase) and the COX (cyclooxygenase) pathways.
EuroPharma Dyflaminol Frequently Asked Questions
Why is the BosPure in Dyflaminol screened to reduce beta-boswellic acid?
Because while most boswellic acids are associated with positive benefits, beta-boswellic acid is pro-inflammatory. Keeping it to less than 20% doubles the effectiveness of BosPure® boswellia.
What is the difference between Dyflaminol and Arthocin?
Dyflaminol is an excellent all-purpose supplement to support more immediate benefits. The combination and level of ingredients in Arthocin – especially given its high levels of Devil's Claw and Indian Gooseberry – is intended to support joint structure and lubrication.
How does the BCM-95 curcumin in Dyflaminol compare to other curcumin and turmeric products?
The proper product comparison is curcumin to curcumin. However, since many companies are comparing their curcumin absorption to turmeric, we provide this information as a service to our customers.
- Plain curcumin 95% compared to turmeric delivers 20 to 50 times the curcumin as the same amount of turmeric.
- BCM-95 Curcumin has been proven to deliver 8 to 10 times more curcumin into the bloodstream as the same amount of plain curcumin.
- Therefore, when compared gram per gram, BCM-95 Curcumin delivers 8 to 10 times more curcumin than plain curcumin 95% and 160 to 500 times more curcumin than that found in an equal amount of turmeric.
Can Dyflaminol and Curamin be taken together? What would be the benefits?
Dyflaminol and Curamin can be used together, though many consumers choose to use one or the other due to the great similarity of ingredients.
Ginger has been used in Indian and Chinese traditional medicine for thousands of years. The botanical name for Ginger - Zingiber officinale - comes from the Sanskrit word singabera, which means 'shaped like a horn' (referring to the antler-like rhizome, or underground stem). In the 1800s bartenders in England kept shakers of powdered ginger spice available for their customers to sprinkle into their drinks. Tradition has it that this practice was the origin of ginger ale.

When the House of Photography opened in the southern Deichtorhalle in 2005, Hamburg found itself proud home not only to a new exhibition hall, but also to a major photographic collection of an exceptional international standard. Ever since, the House of Photography has presented temporary exhibitions on photography, from historical positions of the 19th and 20th centuries through to young contemporary photography and aspects of the digital revolution.
Prof. F. C. Gundlach was founding director and artistic director of the Haus der Photographie from 2003 to 2005, curated the 2005 opening show on "Martin Munkácsi: Think While You Shoot!" and played a strong role in the designing the underlying concept for the exhibition hall. Since January 1, 2006 Prof. F. C. Gundlach has no longer been active as the programming director of House of Photography but remains a member of the Board of Trustees and holds the honorary title of Founding Director of Deichtorhallen Haus der Photographie. In 2004-5, the southern Deichtorhalle was converted specially to accommodate the House of Photography, with Hamburg-based architect Jan Störmer, in charge of the designs.
Since October 1, 2009 Dr. Dirk Luckow has been the new Artistic Director of Deichtorhallen Hamburg, and is thus also in charge of the exhibition program. He is ably assisted at House of Photography by Curator Ingo Taubhorn and by Collection Curator Dr. Sabine Schnakenberg.
House of Photography is not only the venue of major exhibitions, as visitors can rely on a variety of other services. The building is home to an auditorium and a library; there is a specialist book store dedicated to photography and art, as well as the "Fillet of Soul" bistro – the latter two are both accessible outside opening hours, too.
Pride and place in House of Photography goes to the F. C. Gundlach Collection – this world-class collection covers fashion photography and art photography – and the cooperation with SPIEGEL Verlag and it's archive. Both collections arose in Hamburg and thanks to our investments in exhibition technology and architecture as well as the conservational facilities at House of Photography (the City of Hamburg gave us a grant of EUR 4 million to this end) the two are on permanent loan to us. They decisively enrich the cultural world of Hamburg and emphatically strengthen Hamburg as a modern media hub.
In his function as Founding Director of Haus der Photography, in 2003 F. C. Gundlach bequeathed his private collection to Deichtorhallen Hamburg on permanent loan for a period of 20 years. The objective of Haus der Photographie is to familiarize the broader general public with the collection and the various themes it addresses. Alongside photographic works, from the mid-1980s onwards Gundlach was also interested in countless works by artists who addressed the medium of photography in their visual works. Since 2003, drawing on this part of his collection, we have assembled countless high-profile exhibitions, such as "A Clear Vision" (2003), "The Heartbeat of Fashion" (2006), "American Beauties" (2007) and "Nobuyoshi Araki. Silent Wishes" (2010).
F.C. Gundlach (Franz Christian Gundlach) born 16. Juli 1926 in Heinebach, Hessen is photographer, gallery owner, collector, curator and founder. Since September 2003 he is the Founding Director of the House of Photography in the Deichtorhallen in Hamburg.
From 1946 to 1949 he visited the Private Lehranstalt für Moderne Lichtbildkunst of Rolf W. Nehrdich in Kassel. Since 1949 he mainly published theatre and film reportages as a freelance photographer for magazines such as Deutsche Illustrierte, Stern, Quick and Revue.
In 1953 he began his specialisation in fashion photography journalism-style with his work for the Hamburg magazine Film und Frau. He mainly photographed the fashion of Berlin fashion designers, Parisian Haute Couture and always fur campaigns. A further focus of his work was on fashion reportages with film stars in fashion and artist portraits among whom were Romy Schneider, Hildegard Knef, Dieter Borsche and Jean-Luc Godard.
F.C. Gundlach's fashion photographs of the 1950s, 60s and 70s that dealt again and again with social phenomena and current trends in visual arts, achieved iconic status, left their original context behind them and found their way into museums and collections.
Retrospectively created solo exhibitions such as 'ModeWelten' (Fashion Worlds, 1985), 'Die Pose als Körpersprache' (Posture as Body Language,1999), 'Bilder machen Mode' (Images Create Fashion, 2004) or 'F.C. Gundlach. Das fotografische Werk' (F.C. Gundlach. The Photographic Work, 2008) were shown in many museums and galleries at home and abroad.
The purpose of the F.C. Gundlach Foundation, which F.C. Gundlach established in 2000, is to promote photography as an artistically and socially imporant cultural asset. The F.C. Gundlach Foundation is in charge of the F.C. Gundlach Collection, as well as his photographic work. Furthermore the foundation administers a number of photographic remains, omnibus volumes and external donations.

My DIY At-Home Manicure Technique That Totally Looks Like I Went to the Salon
Salon quality nails without the salon quality small talk!
Nail art is not my strong suit, so anytime I find a fun mani I can do, I jump on it. I've seen blood-splatter manicures all across the internet for the last few years and thought they looked easy enough that even I could manage. And if I can, you can.
Here's what you need:
After I applied my base coat and let it dry, I painted my nails white. It took me about two coats to get to full opacity, and I applied each layer very thinly and let it completely dry before applying the next coat.
Next, I dumped out some dark red polish onto an old newspaper, dipped the end of my straw into it, and blew into the other side of the straw so that the red polish would splatter all over the white.
One thing I like about this mani is that it's meant to be imperfect, and the variations in splatter have a really cool effect. Some nails ended up with bigger blobs of polish while others had a more spread-out look. I also tried blowing the polish onto the nail from different angles to create more variation.
Once I was satisfied with my splatter, I applied a top coat and then wiped the excess red polish off my fingers and around the cuticles with Q-tips and nail polish remover. (In retrospect, I probably would have done this glue hack Mari wrote about a while back to make clean up a little easier.)
Overall, I was pleased with how this turned out and was thankful that it wasn't too difficult for me to do.
Are you planning on sporting a Halloween mani this month?

He plays a snarky ex-lawyer on "Community" and satirizes pop culture weekly on "The Soup," but don't be fooled: Joel McHale likes teaching words to children.
Among an impressive lineup of celebrity guests on "Sesame Street's" 42nd season, McHale appeared on the children's show this week to define "prickly."
"The word prickly means covered in sharp points, and I'm going to show you some prickly things," McHale says, before being joined by a cactus, pineapple, and porcupine for visual demonstration.
He might make a great "Sesame Street" guest, but McHale is the first to admit that his "Community" character Jeff Winger is a work in progress; and can be a bit, well, prickly.
"[Winger] came into the series being wildly arrogant and selfish... [he's] like glacier in the winter," McHale told The Huffington Post. "He's like a glacier that's very hard to melt. Just like any human being, [Winger] doesn't make about faces that quickly"
If his "Sesame Street" performance is any indication, it looks like McHale himself has already begun the melting process.

Its position is usually next to the sink, but the liquid dishwashing detergent can be useful for things you would never have imagined!
In this super helpful video, Build.com shows you a quick and easy way to unclog your toilet without a plunger. The main ingredient you'll need? Regular ol' dish detergent!
You can simply squirt a decent amount of detergent into the bowl, and then pour a bucket of hot water into the bowl, filling to the rim. Then wait between 3-10 minutes, repeat the process and that's it! The toilet should be unclogged.
You can also add fabric softener to the mix, as it also softens, loosens and de-foams. While Build.com notes all clogs are different, this simple idea worked on an extreme clog!
The detergent seeps into the clog, lubricating the trap way and freeing the clog. You even get a cleaner toilet bowl out of this process!

This week we've been busy researching a story for our upcoming June/July '13 issue. We're writing a 16 page expose on extreme sewists. Here's an excerpt from this thrilling article:
"You wouldn't believe how many needles I break," Shauna explained, "sometimes a wave catches you wrong and you just know that needle is a goner." Extreme sewist, Shauna Flowersly, competes in national jet ski competitions. Her edge over the other jet ski enthusiasts is her passion for sewing. She has been known to sew while out on the water. Her contribution to the talent portion of the competition involves serging a sheath dress while jumping waves and circling buoys.
The article includes other extreme sewists known for stitching while mountain biking, bungee jumping and paragliding. Watch for it to hit newsstands in mid-May.
How about you? What's the most extreme setting you've ever sewed in?
We can't wait to hear your responses!

Antair BlackBerry Call Screener by Antair
by Michael E. Callahan aka Dr. File Finder
Note: Since by definition "smartphones" are phones that are also PDA's, the software reviewed here should work with personal digital assistants that are not "smartphones". Check the operating system because we'll be reviewing software for Pocket PC, Windows Mobile, Palm, and BlackBerry devices. -- Editor
I believe in working hard, but at the same time when I'm done working I'm done! That's why I was really glad to find a slick program for BlackBerry called Antair BlackBerry Call Screener. What I like about it is that it quick and easy-to-use, perfect for users with all levels of experience. Setting it up was quick and easy and it does an amazing job. As the name implies the program screens calls coming into your BlackBerry device. In testing it out I tried a number of screening options. For example, you can tell the program to block every incoming call. Another option is to block only those who aren't in your contacts or only calls from unknown numbers. The cool thing is that you can create profiles so you can quickly switch between them. For example, I turned on a profile to block all calls while I was getting a haircut, then toggled over to a profile that would block all unknown numbers. I found that you can also block specific phone numbers, or area codes. In testing it out I blocked my office phone and then called my BlackBerry from that phone. Antair BlackBerry Call Screener worked perfectly and blocked my call. Slick. I also found out that when the program blocks a call it sends it directly to your voice mail. In this way you aren't bothered by any call that you don't want to receive or respond to. The program keeps a log of all calls that were blocked. If you wish you can call back or you can remove the entries, which are also stored in the internal BlackBerry call log. Antair BlackBerry Call Screener does an amazing job and I think it's a "must have" for anyone who works hard and doesn't want to be disturbed by phone calls. I like it so much that I'm making it a Dr. File Finder Favorite and those are few and far between. So, if you'd like to maintain your "quiet time" check it out for yourself. I recommend it!

"the title 'villains' isn't a political statement. it has nothing to do with trump or any of that shit. it's simply 1) a word that looks fantastic and 2) a comment on the three versions of every scenario: yours, mine and what actually happened… everyone needs someone or something to rail against—their villain—same as it ever was. you can't control that. the only thing you can really control is when you let go."—joshua homme
produced by mark ronson and co-produced by mark rankin and mixed by alan moulder, 'villains' is the first full album offering from queens of the stone age since 2013's 'like clockwork'.
as homme himself puts it, "the most important aspect of making this record was redefining our sound, asking and answering the question 'what do we sound like now?' If you can't make a great first record, you should just stop—but if you can make a great record but you keep making records and your sound doesn't evolve, you become a parody of that original sound."

Everyone has a photographic memory, some don't have film.
Cowm gets my vote - had a ball last month...

..muddy water that my rad didnt like...
however a quick Morrisons Jet wash sorted that.
I'd be up for greenlaning however am still somewhat an off-road rookie - feel a bit safer at Cowm till confidence is up.
Have you seen my FOG ad? ICE and lights supplied and fitted at low low prices!
Well green laning is leading at the mo. I guess I will need to twist Drift's arm if he is coming to plan some routes. Although we may have to do 2 groups judging by the response. If it goes up much more then I guess we will have to do a P+P at Cowm. It's a really great site
Although it is £25 for a day. You can only do the green route if you have road tyres, although even that route is quite challenging. But' after you've had the initial lead round you are pretty much left to do what you are comfortable with doing.
Patience is a Virtue engineered by a Frontera...
i seriously want to do cowm but i also want a bit of green laning but cowm seems to be calling me more,
oh and steve were you on about me when you thought i had another frontera and where have you heard that as i'm sure i've not posted owt about that, i've got a paj but do want another frontera

Immediately after the first battle of Bull Run on July 24, 1861, Governor John G. Downey received from the Secretary of War, Simon Cameron, a communication which said: "The War Department accepts, for three years, one regiment of infantry and five com panies of cavalry to guard the Overland Mail Route from Carson Valley to Salt Lake City and Fort Laramie." This was the first official action towards organizing troops in California, and it required but a short time to raise the required number of men, and as fast as the companies were mustered in at the Presidio, near San Francisco they were transported across the bay to Camp Downey (in present day Oakland).
The First California Volunteer Infantry and five companies of the First Cavalry were being well drilled and disciplined at Camp Downey when the news was received at Department Headquarters that Secessionists in the southern part of the state were becoming turbulent and more outspoken, and on September 17th General Sumner ordered Colonel Carleton's command to Southern California.
The First Infantry, under Colonel James H. Carleton since July 26, 1861, and the First Cavalry, under Lieutenant Colonel Benjamin F. Davis, arrived at San Pedro and marched some eighteen miles north to lay out a camp for fifteen companies near a small creek (Ballona Creek in present Culver City). They named it "Camp Latham" in honor of one of the California senators. When the order came for regular Army troops to transfer to the East Coast, Major Edwin A. Riggs of the First California Infantry was sent with several companies to replace those leaving Fort Yuma. Other regulars from Los Angeles, San Bernardino and San Diego were soon assembled at San Pedro for shipment to New York.
On the 20th of October, 1861, General Sumner was replaced as commander of the Department of California by Colonel George Wright of the Twelfth U.S. Infantry. Colonel Sumner, shortly thereafter, was drowned on his way to take command of the Department of Oregon when the steamer "Brother Jonathan" sank off the mouth of the Columbia River. (Note: Lieutenant Pettis appears to have mistaken which commander went down on the "Brother Jonathan". In fact is was Brigadier General Wright who drowned) On November 20th, Colonel Carleton was called to San Francisco to take command of California troops heading east by the overland route through Salt Lake City. But these orders were superseded when news was received of the successful invasion of New Mexico and Arizona by a force of Texans under Confederate General H.H. Sibley. Within a few days, Wright and Carleton developed a plan to proceed with a command through Arizona and attack Sibley on his flank and rear. General Wright submitted this plan to the War Department on December 9, 1861, and received immediate approval from General McClellan.
It was decided that Fort Yuma, on the California side of the Colorado River, should be the jumping off point for the expedition, and advance units were sent with all promptitude to prepare for the increased activity which would take place in a few months, and to strengthen its defenses in case Confederates arrived there before the main force of California Volunteers. A small camp at Warner's Ranch (near present Warner's Springs), named Camp Wright, was enlarged to serve as an intermediate supply and staging point halfway between Wilmington and Fort Yuma. Supplies started moving forward, both by Phineas Banning's teams across the desert and by steamship to the head of the Gulf of California and then up the Colorado by river steamboats of the Colorado River Navigation Company.
The "California Column" originally consisted of ten companies of the First California Infantry, five companies of the First California Cavalry, one company of the Second California Cavalry and Light Battery A of the Third U.S. Artillery. This command contained 1500 men, well drilled, well disciplined, and eager to show what stuff they were made of. Later on, Lieutenant Colonel George W. Bowie's Fifth California was added, bringing the total strength to 2350 rank and file. It should be pointed out here that never did the entire column move as one unit. Advance parties, some quite large, were sent ahead to scout, to strengthen fortifications at camping points, and to collect what food and forage was available for the large groups to follow. Another reason for breaking the column into smaller units was to conserve the water supply at springs and water holes, many of which only had enough water for a few hundred men with their mounts and mule teams at one time.
Before these advance movements and training
of the California troops were being made, Union forces in New
Mexico under the command of General Canby had not fared well.
Confederate Colonel John R. Baylor had arrived in New Mexico,
proclaimed him self Provisional Governor of New Mexico and Arizona,
and started up the Rio Grande on July 1, 1861. On July 25th, Major
Isaac Lynde, 7th U.S. Infantry, in command of Fort Fillmore, about
three miles east of Mesilla, proceeded to attack Baylor's
"Second Texas Rifles", a partial regiment of less than 300 poorly armed men. After a weak assault with his more than 500 well equipped and armed troops headed by capable officers, Lynde ordered a retreat to the adobe walls of Fort Fillmore with three men killed and four wounded. On the 27th, Lynde attempted to start a march to Fort Stanton, some one hundred miles to the northeast to escape the "superior" Rebel army. He was overtaken by the Texans before he had gone fifteen miles and surrendered without firing a shot.
Further Union setbacks followed Lynde's surrender. A major battle at Valverde on February 21, 1862, between General Canby's 2500 New Mexico volunteers and a force of 3000 Confederates under General H.H. Sibley, who had replaced Colonel Baylor, resulted in a victory for the Texans. After the Union troops retreated behind the thick adobe walls of Fort Craig, Sibley continued his march north. Albuquerque and Santa Fe surrendered with little resistance, marking the high water mark of Confederate operations.
A Union force made up of Colorado volunteers under Colonel J.P. Slough, with some regular U.S. troops from Fort Lyon and Fort Union won a major victory at Apache Canyon and Glorieta, a few miles east of Santa Fe. In three days of fighting, the Union forces had 25 killed, 64 wounded and 30 missing; Confederate losses were 82 killed, 155 hounded and 96 taken prisoner. (this fight, from March 25th to 28th, was the last major combat in New Mexico).
Sibley started his long retreat back to Texas, aware that any delay would find him trapped between the Colorado troops to the north, General Canby with a still effective force at Fort Craig and the Californians approaching from the west. Sibley reached Fort Bliss at Franklin (now El Paso) late in April.
About this time, General Sibley ordered a Confederate company under Captain Sherod Hunter to proceed west through Tucson and then along the Gila River as far as Yuma if possible, the same route which would be used by the California Column on their way to the Rio Grande. At White's Mills, near the Pima Villages,about twenty miles south of present Phoenix, Captain Hunter met and captured a scouting party under Captain William McCleave and nine men of his A Company. When this news got back to Fort Yuma, a larger party under Captain William Calloway was dispatched along the same route with orders to find and free Captain McCleave and his men. Calloway reached the Pima Villages, the main supply point between Fort Yuma and Tucson, with no sign of the rebels other than a number of burned haystacks, and after a short rest , set out for Tucson. As they approached Picacho Pass, Indian scouts brought in information that Confederate pickets were just ahead. Lieutenant James Barrett and a small group of his Company A, First Infantry were ordered to make a wide detour to strike them on the flank, while Calloway would make a front al attack with the main party. After traveling several miles, Calloway heard firing on his front and soon came upon a bloody scene. Barrett had found and attacked the rebel pickets, and in the short encounter, had been killed along with Privates George Johnson and William Leonard. Two other Union soldiers were wounded. One Confederate was killed, four were wounded, three were taken prisoner and one of the nine pickets escaped. This "battle" between fewer than a dozen troops on each side was the only time that members of the "California Column" engaged Confederate troops in combat. The graves of Lieutenant Barrett and his men may be seen within twenty feet of the tracks of the Southern Pacific Railroad as it goes through Picacho Pass. (Just off U.S. 10 below Picacho, a monument erected by the Arizona Pioneers marks the graves.)
Captain Calloway returned to Pima Villages and started work on a permanent camp, throwing up earth works around the flour mill of Ammi White, who had been taken away by the rebels a few weeks before. This earth work was named "Fort Barrett" in honor of their comrade. It required several weeks for the main elements of the "Column" to get to Pima Villages, as only detachments of less than four companies could move over the desert routes within twenty four hours of each other because of the scarcity of water. On the 15th of May, Colonel West and his advance detachment moved out of the Pima Villages for Tucson, going through the "Casa Grandes" and Rattlesnake Springs to old Fort Breckenridge (later named Fort Grant), where the American flag was run up again on the flagstaff of the fort amid the hurrahs of the men and the field music playing "The Star Spangled Banner".
The command camped that night in the "Canon de Oro". The next day, May 19th, a short march of fifteen miles was made, and the party encamped within ten miles of Tucson. An early reveille on the morning of the 20th, and the command moved forward with a light step. When it had arrived within two miles of the town, Captain Emil Fritz, Company B, 1st Cavalry, was ordered take his first platoon to make a detour and come in on the east side of the town; the second platoon, under Juan Francisco Guirado, was to charge in on the north side, while the four companies
of infantry were to come in on the road from the west. The three parties arrived at the plaza at the same moment, the cavalry at the charge and the infantry at the double quick, but found no enemy. The rebels, before they left, had publicly announced that the "Abs" (abolitionists ?) would soon take the fair city, which would then be given over to the ravages of a brutal soldiery, and the population, mostly Mexican, had started southward for the Sonora line.
Good quarters were found for the troops, who would be in Tucson for the next two months, until July 20th, while the "Column" was being assembled here, with food and forage enough to start on the final leg to the Rio Grande, still almost 250 miles away. Everything, except for a small quantity of wheat which was purchased from the Pima Indians,was brought by Banning's teams from Southern California. Military equipment and supplies came from the Wilmington Depot after arriving there by ship. No forage or food could be had in or about Tucson, and the hearty appetites of the thousands of young Californians consumed the rations nearly as fast as the wagon trains arrived.
No news had been received from the Rio Grande since the column had commenced its march from California. Several express parties had been sent forward to open communications with General Canby, but none had ever returned. On June 15, 1862, Sergeant William Wheeling of Company F of the 1st Infantry, expressman John Jones, and a Mexican guide named Chaves left Tucson with dispatches for General Canby. It was afterwards learned that this party was attacked by Apache Indians at Apache Pass, about seventy five miles east of Tucson, on June 18th. Chaves was killed by the first exchange of shots and Sergeant Wheeling was seriously wounded, falling off his horse and being dispatched. Both bodies were found badly mutilated later. Jones escaped by a miracle, and after a ride of over 200 miles, he reached the Rio Grande at a point five miles above Mesilla. He was taken prisoner by the rebels, who still held Mesilla. He was taken before Colonel Steele, the Confederate commander, who questioned him, took his dispatches, and threw him in jail. But he managed to get word to General Canby that he was there, and that the "California Column" was really coming. How he did it is still not clear.
On the 21st of June, a strong reconnoitering party of cavalry under Lieutenant Colonel Eyre left Tucson. After a hard march, they arrived at Fort Thorn on the Rio Grande about seventy miles above present El Paso, on July 4th. It had been abandoned by the rebels. Eyre was reinforced by a squadron of the 3rd U.S. Cavalry, and would have attacked the rebels at Mesilla, but was forced to forego that pleasure by peremptory orders from Colonel Chivington of the 1st Colorado Volunteers at Fort Craig, who under General Canby's orders was in command of the southern military district of New Mexico. Meanwhile, Colonel Steele greatly feared he would be overtaken by the California troops, and in his hurried retreat burned a number of his wagons and destroyed a large amount of ammunition. The rebel forces were so disheartened by their defeats upriver and weakened by loss of supplies that had they been attacked by even a small force, they would have surrendered at once.
On July 9th Captain Thomas L. Roberts with
his Company E of the 1st Infantry and Captain Cremoney's Company
B of the 2nd Cavalry and with two mountain howitzers under the
command of Lieutenant William A. Thompson,left Tucson for the
Rio de Sauze (probably today's San Simeon River), where they were
to establish a camp, having rations
and forage for Colonel Eyre's command in case they were forced back by the Texans. When this command reached Apache Pass (now Fort Bowie), they were attacked by a large force of Apache warriors under the leadership of "Cochise". After a stubborn contest, the Indians were forced to retire with a loss of nine killed, while the troops suffered a loss of two killed and two wounded.
On July 20th, Colonel West left Tucson for
the Rio Grande with five companies of infantry. On the 21st, Captain
Edward P. Willis left with two companies of infantry and Battery
A of the 3rd U.S. Artillery. On the 23rd, Lieutenant Colonel Edwin
A. Rigg, with a third command consisting of five companies of
the 1st Infantry followed. Each of these detachments had subsistence
for thirty days, with a full supply of entrenching tools. Up to
the time of arrival of the troops at Tucson, the infantry had
carried their full fifty pound packs the entire march, a notable
achievement considering the nature of the country through which
they had marched in woolen uniforms, and the fearful heat and
thirst they had encountered.
General Orders, No. 10, "Headquarters of the Column from California, dated Tucson, July 17th, 1862", contained the following paragraph: "l0.That every soldier may move forward with a light, free step, now that we approach the enemy; he will no longer be required to carry his knapsack" (There must have been a sigh of relief from 2000 throats, and a simultaneous murmur "General, it's about time!") (Though a respected commander, Carleton did not have the best of relations with at least one of his officers, Lieutenant George H. Pettis, the author of this story, who inserted the following statement in the middle of what was otherwise an objective and factual report:)
"I have always believed that General Carleton wanted me killed, for he put this detachment under my command to escort them ( a group of Tucson desperados) to the Pima Villages, a distance of nearly two hundred miles, and gave me a cavalry detachment of ten men, the worst disciplined ones I have ever met. The first night out, when I was encamped at the "Point of Rocks", an express arrived from Colonel West, then in command at Tucson, in which I was informed that my prisoners had stated before we left that point, that they would never be taken through alive, and cautioning me to be ever on the alert, or I would not get through. Carleton did not send me for the honor. He was much surprised when I returned safe, but not as much as I was. (signed) G.H.P.
General Carleton, with headquarters of the "California Column" arrived at Fort Thorn on August 7th, 1862, and immediately communicated with General Canby. The balance of the column arrived on the Rio Grande in detachments as they had left Tucson, one day apart, and by the 15th, Mesilla was made the headquarters of the district of Arizona. The Southern Overland Mail Route had been opened and the and the United States military posts in Arizona, New Mexico and Northwestern Texas had been reoccupied by troops composing the "California Column".
On the 18th of September, 1862, General Carleton assumed command of the Department of New Mexico, General Canby having been ordered east by the War Department. The "Column" was soon distributed throughout the Department, and active operations commenced against the hostile Indians, the Apaches and the Navajos. Three days after his appointment, Carleton issued the following order:
Headquarters of the Department of New Mexico,
Santa Fe, N.M., Sept. 21st, 1862
