I stood in the presence of several very ancient oaks in Bandon's Castlebernard Woods a few months ago, and was in total awe. Such trees are now *incredibly* rare in Ireland. Please support Bandon Environmental Action Group in getting the 34.5-acre ecosystem protected. www.corkbeo.ie/news/local-n...

"I think it’s really cool that we have the choice to say, ‘Hey, we’re not gonna put this on streaming services' … [we] have that choice as young artists and really promote our views through every aspect of the music—not just the playing or the creation of it, but in the distribution of it as well."

There is a fraudulent email circulating inviting people on to Burning Books. They don't ask for money immediately, but will invoice you at a later stage in the process, so a more elaborate scam than we've become used to—so please be aware, avoid, and if in doubt, contact us directly.

It's unusual that we get this sort of display in Oregon. Taken with a smartphone and enhanced a little, but it was still amazing to see aurora #Lights by eye. 📷 #photography #EastCoastKin #BlueSkyArtShow #oregon #sky #aurora
An aurora display fills the night sky with bands of vivid green near the horizon shading upward into deep magenta and violet, with faint vertical rays streaking through. A ragged line of conifers stands in full black silhouette across the bottom, and a scattering of stars is visible through the glow.

The only only sportsman and the only real man among them, standing head and shoulders above the cowards in the squad, the coaching staff and the FAI. This is how simple it is to do the right thing.
A statement from Ireland goalkeeper Gavin Bazunu that says: 

Representing my country means everything to me. I have the utmost respect for every single one of my team mates, the Manager, his staff and the Irish people.

However I have reached a decision that I have not taken lightly. I am a man of strong faith and try my best to be a person of character and principle therefore I feel it would be wrong to participate in the upcoming fixtures against Israel.

My decision is based purely upon my personal belief that the killing of innocent people is wrong.

It is important to note that my stance is not in opposition of the Israeli people or the Jewish community but against the atrocities in the region.

There are few times where you get a chance in life to stand up for something bigger and I strongly believe that this is one of them.

Hoshi-wajo standing wooden statue. 11th century, Japan. The wooden flesh of his forehead and nose splits open like a parting curtain, unveiling the calm, serene face of a Bodhisattva emerging from within the mortal shell. In his right hand, raised in a gentle gesture of instruction
Carved from a single block of timber, a monk standing in solemn monastic robes reveals a miraculous inner metamorphosis through a deep vertical cleft down the center of his head and face. The wooden flesh of his forehead and nose splits open like a parting curtain, unveiling the calm, serene face of a Bodhisattva emerging from within the mortal shell. In his right hand, raised in a gentle gesture of instruction, and his left hand, holding a slender ritual water vase (suibin), the figure exudes a quiet, poised presence. The aged surface of the sculpture is etched with deep vertical wood grain, tool marks, and age-worn fissures that catch dramatic, directional light, capturing the physical tension between the outer human countenance and the divine radiance hidden within.
Dating to 11th-century Heian-period Japan, this extraordinary wooden sculpture depicts Hōshō Wajō (the Chinese monk Baozhi, 418–514 CE), a renowned Buddhist master of the Southern Liang Dynasty celebrated for his eccentric wisdom and miraculous deeds. According to Japanese Buddhist folklore recorded in collections such as the Konjaku Monogatarishū, when Emperor Wu of Liang sent court painters to capture the monk's portrait, Baozhi used his fingers to rend open the skin of his face, revealing the Eleven-Headed Guanyin (Jūichimen Kannon) beneath to demonstrate that true Buddhahood cannot be captured by superficial physical likeness. Sculpted in the ichiboku-zukuri (single-block wood carving) technique, this work represents a pinnacle of Japanese religious monozukuri (artisanal mastery), translating a literary legend of spiritual transfiguration into a startling, physical masterpiece of sacred art.
