Hampir Putus Asa

Selalu ku berusaha
Untuk berikan yang terbaik
Dirimu yang selalu
Tak dapat mengerti aku

Janji cinta yang kau berikan
Ternyata tak sama
Pengorbananku slama ini
Hanyalah sia-sia
Aku hampir putus asa
Melihat dirimu bersama dirinya
Hilang sudah harapanku, pada dirimu
Tuk s'lalu menyayangimu

Mount Rushmore National Memorial






There is more than gold in the Black Hills of South Dakota. Above dense forests and pristine streams, the Mount Rushmore National Memorial represents a national treasure.
Symbolizing the ideals of freedom and democracy, it is a tribute to four presidents: George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Theodore Roosevelt and Abraham Lincoln and their invaluable contributions to the United States. Mount Rushmore National Memorial represents not only the past, but also a promise for the future. It is a place surrounded by American history, where the names of Gutzon Borglum and Crazy Horse are still heard; where the buffalo once again run free in Custer State Park and the vision of the Keystone miners still cast a dim shadow on long deserted claims.
Whether a lifelong destination or a stop on your vacation itinerary, your visit to Mount Rushmore will be one you will tuck in your memory book forever.











Dazu Rocks Carving

Dazu Rock Carvings

Dazu Rock Carvings
The Rock Carvings in Dazu, southwest China, are highly authentic, have high aesthetic qualities and show the coming together of Buddhism, Taoism, and Confucianism. They date from the 9th
to 13th centuries.

These Dazu carvings are considered to be the best representatives of the latest phase of rock art in China. They clearly demonstrate the ingenuity and craftsmanship of their artists with respect to carving techniques and subject matter. In that way, they differ from the other, earlier, Chinese rock art world heritage sites Yungang, Longmen and Mogao.

The designated area consists of five separate sites of cliffside carvings: Beishan, Baodingshan, Nanshan, Shizhuanshan and Shimenshan. Baodingshan is the most prominent site of these. It was here that between 1174 and 1252 the Buddhist monk Zhao Zhifeng ordered the start of work on the elaborate carvings along a 500-meter U-shaped section of Mount Baoding. They show the implementation of Buddhist ideas in daily life as represented by Tantric Buddhism.

earthquake lights

Earthquake Lights

Earthquake lights are a scientific phenomenon that modern scientists cannot seem to find any viable explanation for. Earthquake lights are flashes and glows that are seen accompanying seismic activity. Despite numerous eyewitness reports and photographs, scientists simply do not have enough data to explain these strange occurences.
Earthquake lights are most common and at their brightest during the earthquake itself but they have been spotted before and after an earthquake has occured. There is no set color to the lights, they are said to usually be white or blue but have also been seen in other color variations.
Earthquake lights are believed to have been first reported around 400 B.C. in Greek records. Because of their rarity, earthquake lights were considered a myth until photographs were recorded of the earthquake lights during an earthquake in Japan in 1966. There have been even more reports in recent years as these lights are now more known about. There were many eyewitness and video reports of lights prior to and throughout the 2007 earthquake in Peru. Other reported videos and sightings occurred right before the May, 2008 earthquake in China.
There are many theories about the cause of these lights though none of them have been accepted by the scientific community. The most common scientific explanation given to explain these lights is that the earth releases gases during an earthquake, after these gases have been released, they are somehow electrified by the atmosphere and begin to glow. Others belive that the lights are caused by radiation; radon gas released from mineral that ionize the air. Many also believe that earthquake lights would explain people's accounts of UFO sightings.

Strange Rainbow

STRANGE "RAINBOW CLOUDS"

 


Rainbow Clouds

In a breathtaking blaze of glory, Nature puts on one of its most spectacular sky shows.
Reds, oranges, blues and greens create a flaming rainbow that stretches above the clouds.
But this circumhorizon arc, as it is known, owes more to ice than fire. It occurs when sunlight passes through ice crystals in high cirrus clouds. It is one of 15 types of ice halos formed only when the most specific of factors dovetail precisely together.
This blanket of fire, covering hundreds of square miles, is the rarest phenomenon of them all. It was spotted in the US on the Washington-Idaho border around midday last Saturday.
Dr Jonathan Fox, of the US National Weather Service in Spokane, Washington, said: 'It was even more spectacular than the Northern Lights. I feel lucky to have seen it because it only forms in very rare situations. This is the first one I've ever seen. It was a breathtaking sight and it hung around for about an hour.'
To create a rainbow of fire, clouds must be at least 20,000ft high and the ice crystals within them align horizontally instead of their usual vertical position. The sun also needs to be at least 58 degrees above the horizon. Then, the magic can begin.

The Taos Hum


The Hum is a variety of phenomena involving low-frequency buzzing sound and not everyone can hear it. Hum reported in various places. An example is the famous statement in Taos, New Mexico, so that the Hum is sometimes also called the Taos Hum. Hum reportedly heard throughout the world, especially in Europe. Hum difficult to be detected by a microphone, and the source remains mysterious.

In the 1990s, Hum phenomenon was first reported in North America, when research by the University of New Mexico and complaints many residents who lived near Taos, New Mexico, attracted media attention. However, in the 1970s and the 1980s, a similar phenomenon was also reported by residents, especially in the United Kingdom and other countries like New Zealand. [1]

Some explanation may be the origin of the Hum is:

     * Man-made Sound
     * Vibration microwave
     * Electromagnetic waves from meteor
     * The communication system is very small frequency
     * Heating systems ionosphere
     * Tinnitus
     * otoakustik Spontaneous Emission

Approximate Location Of Fly Geyser
Fly Geyser, also known as Fly Ranch Geyser is a small geothermal geyser that is located approximately 20 miles (32 km) north of Gerlach, in Washoe County, Nevada. The Geyser is located in Hualapai Flat less than a mile from State Route 34. The Geyser is about 1/3 miles from the road and is large enough to be seen from the road.[1]
Fly Geyser is located on the private Fly Ranch and is accessible only by a small private dirt road. The ranch is currently owned by Todd Jaksick.[2] There is a high fence and a locked gate with several metal spokes on the top to keep trespassers out, but despite the booby traps, many people still prefer to jump the fence to get a better look. Several organizations have tried to purchase the land for conservation, and make it open to the public, but have been denied.
Fly Geyser is a very little known tourist attraction, even to Nevada residents. It is located right near the edge of Fly Reservoir and is only about 5 feet (1.5 m) high, (12 feet (3.7 m) if you count the mound on which it sits). The Geyser is not an entirely natural phenomenon, and was accidentally created in 1916 during the drilling of a well. The well functioned normally for several decades, but then in the 1960s geothermally heated water found a weak spot in the wall and began escaping to the surface. Dissolved minerals started rising and piling up, creating the mount on which the geyser sits, which is still growing to date. Today, water is constantly squirting out reaching 5 feet (1.5 m) in the air.[1] The geyser contains several terraces discharging water into 30 to 40 pools over an area of 30 hectares (74 acres).[3] The geyser is made up of a series of different minerals, including sulfur dioxide, which gives it its magnificent coloration.
There are two additional geysers in the area that were created in a similar way as Fly Geyser. The first geyser is approximately 3 feet high and is shaped like a miniature volcano. The second geyser is cone shaped and is of the same approximate size as Fly Geyser. Like Fly Geyser, these geysers are continually growing.

HISTORY





Michelangelo Buonarroti
"Michelangelo" and "Michaelangelo" diverted here. For other painters who called earlier the same, see also Michelangelo Merisi da CaravaggioSelf-portrait of Michelangelo
Michelangelo Buonarroti 'or full name in Italian Lodovico Buonarroti Simoni Michelangelo (in Spanish called Miguel Ángel; in French is called Michel-Ange, which roughly means the Angel Michael) (March 6, 1475 - February 18, 1564) was a painter, sculptor, poet, and architect of the Renaissance.

His father wants to concentrate Michelangelo considered more established professions, but Michelangelo's love of art. He then coached by Domenico Ghirlandaio (but with a cause Michelangelo deny this) and in Giovanni Bertoldo. Ghirlandaio and then recommend it to Lorenzo de Medici. He then made some pretty awesome work (for his age that are still a dozen years), but has not been able to make his name became more famous, among them:

    
* Madonna de la Salsa (1490-1492)
    
* Battle of the Centaurs (1491-1492)
Trait perfectionism Michelangelo began to grow since the criticisms launched by Lorenzo de Medici.Savonarola Revolution
After Lorenzo de Medici's death, his successor, Piero de Medici was not the one favored by Michelangelo. He then came out of the Medici family and built his own resume. Leadership Piero de Medici the weak makes the city of Florence besieged Republican party, and the Medici were expelled from the city of Florence.
At this time, Michelangelo made some of the works, among others:

    
* Wooden crucifix (1493) for the church of Santa Maria del Santo Spirito
    
* Statue of Hercules study of marble
The collapse of Medici power family gives room for teaching pastor who opposed the return of Savonarola klasikisme art element into the Church. Classical Art demoralisme deemed to contain many, among the many elements of eroticism and gayisme (coincidence models of many works of art are in the church is male.)
This makes trying to get out of the influence of Michelangelo's Florence, and try menersukan profession in Venice, and Bologna. But in these two cities, no one who knows the greatness of the name of Michelangelo.
He was later involved fraud statue "The Lost Cupid" which later was bought by the Church. Although later found out, this effort was appreciated from Cardinal Raffaele Riario. Michelangelo then gained the confidence to make a statue of Bacchus. But then this statue Michelangelo recognized as orders Jacopo Galli.Back to FlorencePieta StatuesStatue of David
In November 1497, the French ambassador asked Michelangelo make the Pieta, the statue of the Virgin Mary that wept for the death of Jesus. This work pioneered the direct inclusion of name in the work of sculptor created.
In this period, the works of Michelangelo began to get a good appreciation. And in 1504, he began working on his most famous work, David is then displayed in the Piazza della Signoria. This work was intended as a symbol of the strength of the Republic of the threat from the warring factions in the Roman area. This work also became early feud with Leonardo da Vinci, who suggested that the work in a place not too flashy.Under the influence of Papacy
In recognition of his expertise, Michelangelo was summoned to Rome in 1503 to complete the previous Pope's retreat. But the project was abandoned by ditugaskannya manufacture's Fresco in the Sistine Chapel wall.
This is a major challenge for Michelangelo, because even if they've learned during the making of Fresco Domenico Ghirlandaio, but the expertise he was not a painter.
These frescoes done in the period 1508-1512 with a final section at the end of the chapel which has not been completed until the time of Pope Paul III begins.Power Papacy in Florence
In 1513, the influence of Papacy in Florence increased with the increase in one of the family Medici, Pope Leo X. He was assigned to work on Basilicia Facade of San Lorenzo with a very attractive benefits. But the collapse of the Medici family finances and then make this work seem half-finished. One famous part of this work is the statue of Moses.
Influence Papacy finally collapsed in 1527 and the Medici family went bankrupt, then followed by the return of authority of the Republic. Michelangelo became involved in the design of the siege of Florence protection by making the design of the castle.
But this effort to make himself regarded as a traitor so that the Medici family in 1530, he left Florence after the Medici rule back.End of life history
Michelangelo again gained the confidence to finish the last part of the Fresco Sistine's Chapel, the Last Judgement. This work then led to controversy because of exposure nudity.
This work was repaired by Daniele da Volterra assistants by adding a fabric cover on the paintings that are considered important.
Michelangelo died on February 18, 1564 at the age of 88. He could make a parody of Pieta, by replacing the Virgin Mary with the figure who allegedly was himself.Personality
The tendency of Michelangelo's work to show the objects of the male body nudity makes it suspected of having abnormalities homosexuality. In addition, during the Medici homosexuality has become a common culture, although still considered immoral. He was never involved in romance with one of his noble men.
But still there is a note of the proximity to Vittoria Colonna, one of the model studies. But this relationship is considered only a close friend because of Vittoria Colonna is one of the few women in the Renaissance who have high knowledge in science.
Perfectionist nature seen in many works of Michelangelo, one of which criticized Faun sculpture by Lorenzo de Medici. Michelangelo's willing to destroy the teeth of Faun to meet the wishes of Lorenzo de Medici to make the sculpture look old.
One small mistake ever made after that is the statue of Bacchus. The statue was designed with no attention to the possibility of defects in raw materials. As a result, face blackened statue is visible cracks.
This error when making paid Michelangelo David. All of the smallest part of the marble that was provided in making this statue be taken into account seteliti possible. This makes his work was respected for his thoroughness as difficult rivaled by another sculptor.
But Michelangelo was not sacred as private a lot of his work on display at the altar of the church. Besides the issue of homosexuality, his actions make unload the bodies he had to face a lot of checks. His works are also a lot of abandoned just because of money problems. And today, many allegedly manipulated his autobiography to raise his own name. He is also involved in an unhealthy rivalry with Leonardo da Vinci.Donations to the RenaissanceThe Last Judgement by Michelangelo
The work of artist Michelangelo opened his eyes at this age about the importance of good study of anatomy. During this period started a direct study of organ and instrument of motion of the body.
His works inspired many works of art in the Renaissance. Also arsiterturnya work can be seen in many buildings in Florence.

MICHAELANGELO BUONARROTI

Michaelangelo Buonarroti


Potret diri Michaelangelo
Michaelangelo Buonarroti' atau nama lengkapnya dalam bahasa Italia Michelangelo di Lodovico Buonarroti Simoni (dalam bahasa Spanyol disebut Miguel Ángel; dalam bahasa Perancis disebut Michel-Ange, yang kurang lebih berarti Malaikat Mikail) (6 Maret, 1475 - 18 Februari, 1564) adalah seorang pelukis, pemahat, pujangga, dan arsitek zaman Renaissance.
Ia terkenal untuk sumbangan studi anatomi di dalam Seni Rupa. Karyanya yang dianggap terbaik adalah Patung David, Pietà, dan Fresko di langit-langit Kapel Sistina.

Riwayat hidup

Lahir dekat Arezzo, di Caprese, Toscana, Italia tahun 1475. Ayahnya Lodovico di Leonardo di Buonarotti di Simoni adalah seorang pegawai hukum di Caprese. Ibunya Francesca di Neri del Miniato di Siena. Keluarganya memiliki status kebangsawanan rendah.

Awal pembelajaran, pengaruh keluarga Medici

Ayahnya menginginkan agar Michaelangelo berkonsentrasi ke profesi yang dianggap lebih mapan, namun Michaelangelo menyukai seni rupa. Ia lalu dibina oleh Domenico Ghirlandaio (namun dengan suatu sebab Michaelangelo menolak hal ini) dan Bertoldo di Giovanni. Ghirlandaio kemudian merekomendasikannya kepada Lorenzo de Medici. Ia lalu membuat beberapa karya yang cukup mengagumkan (untuk usianya yang masih belasan tahun), namun belum mampu membuat namanya menjadi lebih terkenal, di antaranya:
  • Madonna de la Salsa (1490-1492)
  • Battle of the Centaurs (1491-1492)
Ciri perfeksionisme Michaelangelo mulai berkembang sejak kritik-kritik yang dilancarkan Lorenzo de Medici.

Revolusi Savonarola

Setelah Lorenzo de Medici wafat, penggantinya, Piero de Medici bukanlah orang yang disenangi oleh Michaelangelo. Ia kemudian keluar dari binaan keluarga Medici dan melanjutkan karya-karyanya sendiri. Kepemimpinan Piero de Medici yang lemah membuat kota Firenze dikepung pihak Republikan, dan keluarga Medici terusir dari kota Firenze.
Pada masa ini, Michaelangelo membuat beberapa karya, antara lain:
  • Wooden crucifix (1493) untuk gereja Santa Maria del Santo Spirito
  • Patung studi Hercules dari marmer
Runtuhnya kekuasaan keluarga Medici memberi celah bagi ajaran pendeta Savonarola yang menentang kembalinya unsur seni klasikisme ke dalam Gereja. Seni Klasik dianggap mengandung banyak demoralisme, di antaranya banyaknya unsur erotisme dan gayisme (kebetulan model-model karya seni yang banyak berada di gereja adalah lelaki).
Hal ini membuat Michaelangelo berusaha keluar dari pengaruh Firenze, dan berusaha menersukan profesinya di Venice, kemudian Bologna. Namun di dua kota ini, tidak ada satu pun yang mengenal kebesaran nama Michaelangelo.
Ia kemudian terlibat penipuan patung "The Lost Cupid" yang kemudian dibeli oleh pihak Gereja. Meskipun kemudian ketahuan, usahanya ini mendapat apresiasi dari Kardinal Raffaele Riario. Michaelangelo kemudian mendapat kepercayaan untuk membuat patung Bacchus. Namun kemudian patung ini diakui Michaelangelo sebagai pesanan Jacopo Galli.

Kembali ke Firenze

Patung Pietà
Patung David
Pada November 1497, duta besar Perancis meminta Michaelangelo membuat Pietà, patung Bunda Maria yang menangisi kematian Yesus. Karya ini menjadi pelopor dicantumkannya nama pematung langsung di karya yang dibuat.
Di masa ini, karya-karya Michaelangelo mulai mendapatkan apresiasi yang baik. Dan pada tahun 1504, ia mulai mengerjakan karyanya yang paling terkenal, David yang kemudian dipajang di Piazza della Signoria. Karya ini dimaksudkan sebagai simbol kekuatan Republik atas ancaman dari faksi-faksi yang bertikai di daerah Romawi. Karya ini juga menjadi awal perseteruannya dengan Leonardo da Vinci yang menyarankan agar karya tersebut di tempat yang tidak terlalu mencolok.

Di bawah pengaruh Papacy

Sebagai pengakuan terhadap keahliannya, Michaelangelo dipanggil ke Roma pada tahun 1503 untuk menyelesaikan peristirahatan Paus sebelumnya. Tetapi proyek ini terlantar dengan ditugaskannya pembuatan Fresko di dinding Sistine's Chapel.
Hal ini menjadi tantangan besar untuk Michaelangelo, sebab meskipun pernah mempelajari pembuatan Fresko pada masa Domenico Ghirlandaio, namun secara keahlian ia sama sekali bukan pelukis.
Fresko ini dikerjakan dalam periode 1508-1512 dengan satu bagian terakhir di ujung kapel yang belum diselesaikan hingga masa Pope Paul III dimulai.

Kekuasaan Papacy di Firenze

Pada tahun 1513, pengaruh Papacy di Firenze meningkat dengan naiknya salah satu anggota keluarga Medici, Pope Leo X. Ia ditugaskan untuk mengerjakan Facade Basilicia of San Lorenzo dengan imbalan yang sangat menarik. Namun keuangan keluarga Medici yang ambruk kemudian membuat karya ini terkesan setengah jadi. Salah satu bagian yang terkenal dari karya ini adalah patung Moses.
Pengaruh Papacy akhirnya runtuh pada tahun 1527 dan keluarga Medici bangkrut, kemudian diikuti kembalinya kekuasaan Republik. Michaelangelo kemudian terlibat dalam perancangan perlindungan kota Florence dari kepungan dengan membuat desain benteng.
Namun usaha ini membuat dirinya dianggap sebagai pengkhianat keluarga Medici sehingga pada tahun 1530, ia meninggalkan Florence setelah kekuasaan Medici kembali.

Akhir riwayat hidup

Michaelangelo kembali mendapat kepercayaan untuk menyelesaikan bagian terakhir dari Fresko Sistine's Chapel, yaitu Last Judgement. Karya ini kemudian menimbulkan kontroversi karena pengeksposan ketelanjangan.
Karya ini diperbaiki oleh asistennya Daniele da Volterra dengan menambahkan lukisan kain penutup di bagian yang dianggap penting.
Michaelangelo meninggal pada 18 Februari 1564 di usia 88 tahun. Ia sempat membuat parodi Pietà, dengan mengganti Bunda Maria dengan sosok yang diduga adalah dirinya sendiri.

Kepribadian

Kecenderungan karya Michaelangelo untuk menampilkan objek nudity tubuh laki-laki membuat ia diduga mengalami kelainan homoseksualitas. Selain itu, pada masa Medici homoseksualitas memang menjadi budaya yang lazim terjadi walaupun tetap dianggap amoral. Ia pun pernah terlibat percintaan dengan salah seorang bangsawan laki-laki.
Namun tetap ada catatan mengenai kedekatannya dengan Vittoria Colonna, salah satu model studinya. Tetapi hubungan ini dinilai hanya sebatas teman dekat karena Vittoria Colonna adalah seorang dari sedikit perempuan di masa Renaissance yang memiliki wawasan tinggi di bidang sains.
Sifat perfeksionis terlihat di banyak karya Michaelangelo, salah satunya patung Faun yang dikritik oleh Lorenzo de Medici. Michaelangelo rela menghancurkan gigi-gigi Faun tersebut untuk memenuhi keinginan Lorenzo de Medici untuk membuat patung itu terlihat tua.
Salah satu kesalahan kecil yang pernah dibuatnya setelah itu adalah Patung Bacchus. Patung ini dirancang dengan tidak memperhatikan adanya kemungkinan cacat pada bahan baku. Akibatnya, muka patung ini terlihat retak menghitam.
Kesalahan ini dibayar Michaelangelo saat pembuatan David. Semua bagian terkecil dari marmer yang disiapkan dalam pembuatan patung ini diperhitungkan seteliti mungkin. Hal ini membuat karyanya dihormati karena ketelitian seperti itu sulit disaingi oleh pematung lain.
Namun pribadi Michaelangelo tidaklah sesuci karyanya yang banyak dipajang di altar gereja. Selain isu homoseksualitas, perbuatannya membongkar tubuh mayat membuat ia harus menghadapi banyak pemeriksaan. Karya-karyanya juga banyak yang terlantar hanya karena masalah uang. Dan saat ini, autobiografinya diduga banyak dimanipulasi untuk mengangkat namanya sendiri. Ia juga terlibat rivalitas tidak sehat dengan Leonardo da Vinci.

Sumbangan terhadap Renaisans

The Last Judgment karya Michelangelo
Karya Michaelangelo membuka mata seniman pada zaman ini tentang pentingnya studi yang baik tentang anatomi. Pada masa inilah dimulai penelitian langsung organ tubuh dan alat gerak dari mayat.
Karya-karyanya banyak menjadi inspirasi karya seni di masa Renaisans. Selain itu karya arsiterturnya bisa dilihat di banyak bangunan di Firenze.
Karya-Karyanya adalah:
  • Madonna and Child with the Infant St. John (Taddei Tondo)
  • Il Putto Dormiente
  • Madonna de La Scalsa
  • Battle of Centaurs
  • Wooden crucifix
  • Bacchus
  • Pietà
  • Patung Studi Hercules
  • Fresko di Langit-Langit Sistine Chapel
  • Patung studi dari beberapa budak
  • Fresko Last Judgement di dinding altar Sistine Chapel.
  • Moses
  • Arsitektur Basilicia of San Lorenzo
  • Patung-patung di pemakaman Basilicia of San Lorenzo
  • Arsitektur Palazzo Farnese
