*** *** *** I'm stampolina and I love to take photos of stamps. Thanks for visiting this pages on flickr. I'm neither a typical collector of stamps, nor a stamp dealer. I'm only a stamp photograph. I'm fascinated of the fine close-up structures which are hidden in this small stamp-pictures. Please don't ask of the worth of these stamps - the most ones have a worth of a few cents or still less. By the way, I wanna say thank you to all flickr users who have sent me stamps! Great! Thank you! Someone sent me 3 or 5 stamps, another one sent me more than 20 stamps in a letter. It's everytime a great surprise for me and I'm everytime happy to get letters with stamps inside from you! thx, stampolina For the case you wanna send also stamps - it is possible. (...I'm pretty sure you'll see these stamps on this photostream on flickr :) thx! stampolina68 P.O.Box / Postfach 6 3250 Wieselburg Austria - Europe * * * * * * * * * great stamp Austria 90c (portrait Charlie Chaplin,*April 16th 1889) postage timbre Autriche selo sello francobollo Austria почтовые марки Австрия postzegel Oostenrijk طوابع النمسا frimærker østrig markica Austrija टिकटों ऑस्ट्रिया francobollo Austria 切手 スタンプ オーストリア bélyegek Ausztria แสตมป์ ออสเตรีย frimerker østerrike perangko Austria razítka Rakousko 우표 오스트리아 pulları Avusturya בולים אוסטריה markas Austrija 邮票 奥地利 Briefmarken Österreich
The University of Pennsylvania Museum of Archaeology and Anthropology on the Penn campus in Philadelphia dates its official founding to December 6, 1887. On that date, the Trustees of the University of Pennsylvania resolved to send 'an exploring expedition to Babylonia' — with the stipulation that the University would build 'suitable accommodations' to house any artifacts that the first expedition team, and others, would bring back. Since that time, the collections of the Penn Museum, built through a vigorous programme of archaeological excavations, anthropological expeditions, planned purchases, and fortuitous donations, have grown to about one million objects. The diverse, internationally acclaimed Collection hails from six continents and spans the millennia, shedding light on the vast scope of human activity and achievement. The permanent building to house the field notes and artifacts came more than a decade later, with the first section of the Museum, at what is now 3260 South Street, opening in 1899. Now, the Penn Museum begins its 125th anniversary year by placing its Collection front and center, launching the Penn Museum online Collections Database from the Museum’s homepage. It’s a place where scholars can go to get preliminary information on a particular artifact or set of artifacts, teachers and school children can explore a region’s cultural materials, and anybody with access to a computer can 'curate' their own set of favourite 'finds' and share them with friends. The new public database allows users to search in multiple ways, including by keyword, curatorial section, type of material, and display status. Highlights from the Collection are featured, as are several cross-cultural thematic collections, including Egyptian Afterlife, Hair & Makeup, Feathers, and Animals. “The Museum was conceived as a public institution with a solid research and collection focus, and it seems only fitting that we should time our public launch of the Museum’s artifact database on this major anniversary year,” noted Dr Richard Hodges, Williams Director of the Penn Museum. Though launched and open to the public, the online collections database, like the study of archaeology and anthropology, is a work in progress. It currently contains more than 326,000 object records representing 660,000 objects, and 51,500 images illustrating 24,500 object records. Due to the nature of the collections and the varied means of collecting over 125 years, some records are far more detailed than others, and some information presented may have inaccuracies that may date from information input at the time of collecting. “In developing the online database, we decided to let the scholars and the public see the records as we have them today—rather than wait, what could be many years, to research and confirm all information collected over the decades,” explained Dr. James Mathieu, Chief of Staff and Head of Collections. “What we have online today is a virtual look, really, not only at our collections, but our collections history. 2012 is a great year to invite our constituents—international scholars, students, and the general public—to delve into the Penn Museum’s collections, for inspiration, personal discovery, and to join us in the ongoing research about our shared human heritage.” The engine behind the public Collections Database is acustomized version of KE Software’s EMu (electronic museum) collections management system which the Penn Museum began using in November 2010. The EMu database system and the online Collections site have been made possible by grants from the Philadelphia Cultural Management Initiative and the William Penn Foundation, and supportfrom the Kowalski Family Fund for Digital Initiatives and A. Bruce and Margaret Mainwaring. Penn Museum continues the celebration of its 125th anniversary year with a rich set of programs geared for diverse ages and interests, from scholarly symposia to '40 Winks with the Sphinx' sleepovers, special exhibitions (including MAYA 2012: Lords of Time, featuring never-before-seen material from the Museum’s recent excavations at Copan in Honduras), lecture series, and world culture afternoons. A special 125th anniversary edition of the Museum’s Expedition magazine, focusing on 125 famous research expeditions, is due out in December, and a December 6, 2012 special event—details yet to be announced—will mark the official anniversary.
Cerveza Superior, the popular Mexican beer, is celebrating its 125th anniversary by debuting in the U.S. Full details are below. STAMFORD, CT – Promising a “Superior” summer, Cerveza Superior is celebrating its 125th anniversary making its U.S. debut just in time for the hot days ahead. The popular Mexican beer’s staying power is rooted in its unparalleled brewing tradition. United States Beverage (USB) is rolling out Cerveza Superior in selected markets. The crisp, full-bodied Mexican lager from Orizaba, Veracruz, promises to stand out due to its popularity in Mexico and its legendary origins from one of the most important breweries in the 20th century. “Cerveza Superior represents a 125-year history of world-class excellence in beer making. Our U.S. debut will delight longtime Superior fans and beer aficionados will now be able to enjoy the authentic taste of tradition. Superior’s heritage will inspire new generations to appreciate the lager from legendary Orizaba,” says, Miguel Angel Sánchez, Area Export Manager, Heineken Americas Export. Superior was born before the Mexican Revolution as a beer for the most demanding palates. Cerveceria Moctezuma opened its doors in 1896 and the authentic Superior flavor began to emerge from the majestic peaks of Orizaba. The Orizaba region is known for abundant water from the melts of Pico de Orizaba or Citlatépetl, the third highest peak in North America standing at 18,491feet. The quality of the water, characterized by being soft and with a low mineral content, favors the production of this lager-style beer. Available in select markets in U.S. for the first time, Cerveza Superior can be found in 6 pack bottles, 12 pack cans, and 24 oz can, at retail channels across the country, including grocery chains, independent stores, and restaurants.

This image (one of a series of nine, also available at SOTA) was selected for the Mrs Toolip Gallery International Art Contest, Barcelona 2023.This series was created for real, using sunlight on very high end cameras and extremely high resolution output files are available for reproduction purposes. The green image in the series 'Refraction No.4' was selected for the ING Discerning Eye exhibition at The Mall Galleries and for the Society of Scottish Artist's 125th Annual Exhibition at The Maclaurin Art Gallery, Ayr, Scotland, both in late 2023.An oblique transparent prism is centered against a red background with a beam of light entering from one side. The light disperses into a spectrum of rainbow colors that project onto the red surface, vividly illustrating the dispersion effect. This interaction between the light and the prism is clearly visible and striking, creating an interesting visual pattern. The overall image captures a scientific phenomenon while also conveying an artistic and thought-provoking ambiance.The effect of refraction itself is to create a spectrum of color. ‘Refraction’ is defined as a change of direction as a result of a change of speed. A change of speed helps us re-evaluate what’s important and how we engage with our work, our community and our loved ones.
