How To Re-Create A New And Healthy World. - posted by Stephen at My World Of Work: "Sharing and caring about the things that we feel are important to us, from the point of view of the overall Big Picture. No one said it was going to be easy yet if we do not at least begin the dialogue, and make the effort, we will only have ourselves to blame for the ever eroding state of the World, as it is today.



The other forum intrinsic within the name of this website is the things associated with the type of work that we are all engaged in to produce the income that we need to live and thrive, and to accomplish our life's goals."

Instagram: "Next, choose the selective adjust tool and add points to areas of the image that you want to enhance. I generally work with the light already in the picture. It’s a simple process of brightening the highlights and darkening the shadows, always working to isolate the subject at the center of the frame. This technique is called dodging and burning, and the legendary Ansel Adams was a master of it (although he used chemicals to get the effect as opposed to a swipe of the finger!)."

Wow! What an attack on Ansel Adams, he was that master of proper exposure at the film negative level. His concept was to expose for the shadows, because probably one of the few artists and technical masters of the photographic trade understood that if there was simply 'not enough light' to make the changes in the silver based photographic film, there would never be a way to 'recapture it' while excessive exposure from the highlights (bright areas) could be controlled by under-developing the film (with chemicals) in the dakroom.

The author of the blogged section went overboard when he invoked the name of Ansel Adams, and comparing what he does with a iPhone to the involvement that Ansel Adams had with every single aspect of the photograph vis manipulation of processing film and in producing the finished print.

Burning and dodging is a totally different technique where one selectively blocks light from reaching the photo sensitive paper, during  the enlarging process. Burning in would mean selectively focusing more light in an area also with during enlarging.

Ansel Adams owned all the processed from negative to print, there were no presets and screen tapping to automatically get "the presets to work at the midpoint" of image luminosity. When you think of all the techniques and manipulations used by Ansel Adams and compare it to using an iPhone to snap a pic, you have certainly invoked an improper comparison.

Ansel Adams, the photographer know to wait hours for the right light to expose one piece of film, who was also known to return another day, if the light was just not right. How can this level of mastery and craftsmanship be compared to someone snapping a pretty scene with an iPhone, no this is definitely an oxymoronic comparison.

So what does this tell you about the author.

Why A Christian ALTERNATIVE to Yoga? | PraiseMoves

Why A Christian ALTERNATIVE to Yoga? | PraiseMoves: "Yoga’s breathing techniques (pranayama) may seem stress-relieving, yet they can be an open door to the psychic realm – inhaling and exhaling certain “energies” for the purpose of relaxation and cleansing.

What is Pranayama?

According to one yoga website: “Pranayama forms a vital step in the path to ascendancy (i.e. liberation, freedom or salvation) through Yoga. Pranayama is derived from 2 Sanskrit words – Prana (life force) and Ayama (control). Therefore, in its broadest description, Pranayama would mean the control of the flow of life force.”"

Letters of the Hebrew Alphabet

Letters of the Hebrew Alphabet: "The Letter Aleph has 3 distinct parts and 10 laws concerning its form. There is an upper Yud, a lower Yud, and a body that is similar to a Vov. There should be a clear connection from the body of the Aleph to the Yuds but none of the faces of the Yuds are allowed to touch its body. The face of the upper Yud should be slightly angled upward. The very bottom end of the Vov part should be slightly turned upwards. The size of the Aleph should be 3X3 kulmusim.
Note: The word Kulmus(im) means the width of the tip of the quill. "

Lamed Vav

Lamed Vav: " Numerically, they represent 36. Legends tell that in this world, there always live thirty-six men who are also called Tzadikim Nistarim, or the Hidden Just Men. They are usually poor, unknown, obscure, and no one guesses that they are the ones who bear all the sorrows and sins of the world. It is for their sake that God does not destroy the world even when sin overwhelms mankind.
When one of the Lamed Vav dies, another is immediately chosen to take his place."
