Rising between the picturesque waters of Lake Monona and Lake Mendota, the majestic granite structure of Wisconsin’s Capitol building glows like a beacon, accenting the Madison skyline. This is an HDR image, actually a re-work since the original was the first HDR image I ever created. I have learned a few things since then, hope you like it. Here is an image of the interior which is simply stunning: /

Ge 1:6: ¶ And God said, Let there be a firmament in the midst of the waters, and let it divide the waters from the waters. / Ge 1:7: And God made the firmament, and divided the waters which were under the firmament from the waters which were above the firmament: and it was so. / Ge 1:8: And God called the firmament Heaven.

The Brooklyn Bridge, one of the oldest suspension bridges in the United States, stretches 5,989 feet (1825 m) over the East River connecting the New York City boroughs of Manhattan and Brooklyn. On completion, it was the largest suspension bridge in the world and the first steel-wire suspension bridge. Originally referred to as the New York and Brooklyn Bridge, it was dubbed the Brooklyn Bridge in an 1867 letter to the editor of the Brooklyn Daily Eagle, and formally so named by the city government in 1915. Since its opening, it has become an iconic part of the New York skyline. It was designated a National Historic Landmark in 1964. At various times, the bridge has carried horse-drawn and trolley traffic; at present, it has six lanes for motor vehicles, with a separate walkway along the centerline for pdestrians and bicycles. Due to the roadway’s height (11 feet posted) and weight (6,000 lb posted) restrictions, commercial vehicles and buses are prohibited from using this bridge. The two inside traffic lanes once carried elevated trains of the BMT from Brooklyn points to a terminal at Park Row. Streetcars ran on what are now the two center lanes (shared with other traffic) until the elevated lines stopped using the bridge in 1944, when they moved to the protected center tracks. In 1950 the streetcars also stopped running, and the bridge was rebuilt to carry six lanes of automobile traffic. 1994 Brooklyn Bridge shooting: / On March 1, 1994, Lebanese-born Rashid Baz opened fire on a van carrying members of the Chabad-Lubavitch Orthodox Jewish Movement, striking 16 year old student Ari Halberstam and three others traveling on the bridge. Halberstam died five days later from his wounds. Baz was apparently acting out of revenge for the Hebron massacre of 29 Muslims by Baruch Goldstein that had taken place days earlier on February 25, 1994. Baz was convicted of murder and sentenced to a 141 year prison term. After initially classifying the murder as one committed out of road rage, the Justice Department reclassified the case in 2000 as a terrorist attack. The entrance ramp to the bridge on the Manhattan side was named the Ari Halberstam Memorial Ramp in memory of the victim. The 2003 Plot: / In 2003, truck driver Iyman Faris was sentenced to about 20 years in prison for providing material support to al-Qaeda, after an earlier plot to destroy the bridge by cutting through its support wires with blowtorches was cancelled. 2006 bunker discovery / In 2006, a Cold War era bunker was found by city workers near the East River shoreline of Manhattan’s Lower East Side. The bunker, hidden within the masonry anchorage, still contains the emergency supplies that were being stored for a potential nuclear attack by the Soviet Union. 125th Anniversary celebrations: / On May 24, 2008, festivities were held over the entire Memorial Day week-end to celebrate the 125th anniversary of the opening of the Brooklyn Bridge.

Why are children hungry in America? The goal of American farm policy should be to promote sustainable agriculture, reduce hunger, and eliminate food insecurity. It makes no sense that any person in America should ever go to sleep hungry.

It is the United States Government’s position that more Blacks are in prison than are Whites, because more Blacks are involved in criminal activity. If that isn’t a racist statement, I have never heard one. The United States has responded to the over representation of African Americans in US prisons by suggesting that such racial disparities “are related primarily to differential involvement in crime by the various groups, rather than to differential handling of persons in the criminal justice system.” Source Letter to UN Secretary to CERD (CERD is the United Nations Committee on the Elimination of Racial Discrimination) LIMITED EDITION PRINTS CLICK HERE “Thirteen percent of all adult black men - 1.4 million - are disenfranchised, representing one-third of the total disenfranchised population and reflecting a rate of disenfranchisement that is seven times the national average. Election voting statistics offer an approximation of the political importance of black disenfranchisement: 1.4 million black men are disenfranchised compared to 4.6 million black men who voted in 1996.” Drug War Facts Felony Disenfranchisement Laws In The United States / MCN:C03EA-64D70-54211 / Impact of Felony Disenfranchisement An estimated 5.3 million Americans, or one in forty-one adults, have currently or permanently lost their voting rights as a result of a felony conviction. 1.4 million African American men, or 13% of black men, are disenfranchised, a rate seven times the national average. An estimated 676,730 women are currently ineligible to vote as a result of a felony conviction. More than 2 million white Americans (Hispanic and non-Hispanic) are disenfranchised. In five states that deny the vote to ex-offenders, one in four black men is permanently disenfranchised.

Nestled outside of Copper Mountain in Colorado, this caught my attention fast as I was coming back home to Denver. It literally came out of no where, and thus I slammed on the breaks and made a B-line for the shoulder of the road. This was an utterly incredible scene, looking like it has never even been touched by man…..standing here looking at this, was nothing but absolute paradise….. / --John —-—-—-—-— See more on my website jdebordphoto.com

This dried-up tree seemed to be stretching, yearning towards the water-laden heavens, desperate for a quenching rain shower. This photo was taken in North Carolina’s Outer Banks, at Jockeys Ridge Sand Dunes. It’s only a few minutes from where the first flight took off at Wright Memorial Park. Jockeys Ridge is a state park and also the practice location of a hang-gliding school. We saw several gliders on the ground that day, but nobody gliding. The sand was burning-hot and biting on our feet as we explored.

This corn field has not been planted this year. The yellow flowers of the wild mustard plant fill the rows where grain should be growing. The latest piece of legislation designed to phase out subsidies for some farmers is causing quite a commotion on Capitol Hill. According to the Wall Street Journal The legislation would limit the ability of farmers to manipulate current law to collect multiple payments, and cap payments to wealthy individuals not directly involved in farming. It would also phase out a special category of payments that provide income support, capping those payments for farmers with adjusted gross incomes of $950,000.
