Matariki - Māori New Year - Happy New Year to All

,



Kiaora folks :wink: Thanks for being here..


'Te Paki-O-Matariki

The Decorative front door of Te Puea's carved meeting house, "Mahina-a-Rangi." The seven stars represent the constellation of the Pleiades, Matariki. Sacred in Waikato religion and legend.
The name of the door means:

The Halcyon Influences of the Pleiades


A time of renewal to share the love of whanau, family. To set goals for the year and aknowledge the goals achieved thru the year. To recharge to enjoy good food good company, revitalised for a new beginning. Fresh to start the New Year in an inspired state of mind.
I wish you all the very best may this coming year bring love kindness and prosperity :wink:




The Seven Sisters

The Seven Sisters are:

Waitī... :o: :angel:

Waitā... :o: :angel:

Tupu-a-nuku... :o: :angel:

Tupu-a-rangi... :o: :angel:

Waipuna-a-rangi... :o: :angel:

Ururangi... :o: :angel:

Matariki... :o: :angel:


Matariki is the Mäori name for the constellation Pleiades or Seven Sisters. Literally it means "little eyes" mata riki or
"eyes of god" mata ariki.

The setting of Matariki in Apr / May / June marks the harvesting of root crops. In late May Matariki rises again on the North Eastern horizon just before dawn. The new moon following this (or full moon, depending on the iwi) marks the beginning of the "new year" and the planting season. It is a time of feasting, fun and festivity.

Matariki is also associated with the winter solstice. It appears when the sun, drifting north on the shortest day in winter, reaches the north-eastern end of the horizon. The sun then turns around and begins its journey south.

For more info on my Matariki posts in the past just hit the Mythology tag :wink:


Happy New Year My Friends, all the very best :knight:

Opera Will Reinvent the Web - June 16th 9:00 a.m

,



Opera is to announce something really cool on June 16th. :hat:

T
he company is framing this new ‘thing’ as ‘Reinventing the Web.’

I’m excited about it; it definitely has the potential to be a game changer (for some).


Opera’s hint: We start our little story with the invention of the modern day computer. Over the years, the computers grew in numbers, and the next natural step in the evolution was …

Two Things We Love To Look At The Most



Hi :wink:

According to Mr & Mrs 'They Say' p:...


Things we love to look at or stare into, until somoene snaps their fingers infront of your eyes are;
A fire burning and a flowing stream!

I love looking at both especially a flowing stream and even more so, the ocean. I gain inspiration and feel recharged staring at the ocean.

My two things i like to look at, at the moment are:
★.. Artwork especially my own and Pamela's :heart:

Nasa Image of the Day - Van Biesbroeck's star - Vb 10

VB 10: A Large Planet Orbiting a Small Star
Illustration Credit: JPL-Caltech, NASA

Explanation:
Can a planet be as large as the star that it orbits? Recent observations have discovered that nearby Van Biesbroeck's star might have just such a large planet. Although VB 10 lies only about 20 light years away, it is a small red dwarf star so dim, at 17th magnitude, that a telescope is needed to see it. Van Biesbroeck's star was previously known for its rapid proper motion across the sky -- it moves so fast it could cross a full moon in only about 1,000 years. By noting a wiggle in VB 10's sky trajectory, astronomers were able to infer the existence of a planet several times the mass of Jupiter. Although the star VB 10 is perhaps 10 times more massive than the discovered planet VB 10b, the star is likely more highly compressed and so the two might be closely matched in size. Such a system is envisioned above with an artist's illustration. Since faint M-type stars like VB 10 are so common, planetary systems surrounding them, including planets larger than their parent star, might be more common than planetary systems like our own Solar System.

Hi All :wink: ~ To my friends who enjoy O.W.C.... Thankyou!

Well, i've been badgering away on this one for days it seems, i don't like to skite, i am a kiwi after all :D But i will blow my own trumpet, p: because O.W.C. has been my mission for months! I love it, i think Opera/MyOpera has so many facets and levels to which one can continue to learn it really is quite phenomenal. Go Opera! :hat:

This in mind, my point! ... i feel that motivated friendly groups here at MyOpera is a very very fine 'ting indeed. Due to the complexities of such advanced learning, imo Opera/MyOpera groups are worth their weight in gold to Opera, as it allows people to meet and grow. Moreover, especially to see others discussing Opera in it's entirety with good gusto and vigour as to to have members inspired! :wink:

All i have truly wanted is to inspire others to use 'The Best Web Experience On The Planet' and to see as many as possible join The MyOpera Community :wink:

I have worked to see the Opera Browses installed and used on desktops thurought Aotearoa, hell, i've installed Opera on one floor of the local hospital :up:

Opera Education is the key for me. To use Opera and work smarter as you study, is true testement to how unique and innovative Opera Browser ~ Software ~ MyOpera ~ OperaMini ~ OperaDevices etc etc etc..... is! I continue towards my goal to ensure Te Wananga o Aotearoa and Auckland Uni's respectfully will use Opera in all labs across Campus Sites. :yes: And i will be updating my efforts Opera Campus Crew wise, regularly from now to Christmas :up: It's an interesting time. Te Wananga O Aotearoa has just recently upgraded their systems to CISCO :up: Will keep ya posted :wink:


Thanks For Reading :wink:

OPERA LOGO iN Movie - The Truth About Charlie

,



Kiaora :wink: Hi all :wink:

I was watching a dvd 'The Truth About Charlie' {2002} when :faint: "Was That an Opera 'O'
did i happen to see per chance!?" :sherlock: on further investigation..:yes: Niceone, grabbed a snippet to show you.

The Movie:
I enjoyed it :wink: Starring are: Tim Robbins, Thandie Newton, Mark Wahlberg. From the director of 'Silence of the Lambs'.

Genre:Comedy | Mystery | Romance | Thriller.
Set In France:
As part of a hostage retrieval unit The O.D.C send a crew on a 'Mission verify'
Location: Yugoslavia.
Uncut diamonds are in tow to pay off the kidnappers. The group is attacked and cut to ribbons! One character steels the diamonds leaving most of the group for dead.
Some of the group do survive and are determined to find the missing booty. Stamps are the end result.
It's nothing too heavy and much of the script is transformed as to be similar to an old Cary Grant movie 'Charade' {1963}. Cary Grant, Audrey Hepburn, Walter Matthau, James Coburn

As things progress two of the crew decipher that the diamonds have been sold to buy 3 very exspensive stamps and the real race begins :up: During this chase the door of the stamp traders shop is shown and there was the Opera 'O' In all it's glory :wink: :love: Opera

Women - The Album - Hairdressing - Music - Artwork - Life



Hello :wink: Kiaora :wink:

Hope all is well in your neck of the woods! :wink:

This album has been fun to build. I have used the Opera Widget ~ ImageGrep as i have also used this widget for tracking down many new Opera logo's and graphics that i hadn't seen before, i totally recommend ImageGrep for your imsge searching :wink:

Having been a hairdresser for many years {Can't make money playing music soley in Aotearoa ; and yes! that is my artwork on the Machinations 7' Ep :D ...( man's gotta make a living :knight:}.
Owning my own shops over these years i hope you will notice that if these women do not have well balanced hair or the shot is not well balanced, it is not in this album! These women work hard for their $. And i can appreciate the work involved with each shot.

THIS ALBUM IS A CELEBRATION OF OUR WOMEN! :headbang::knight:

You know, to be honest i was surprised to see what albums featuring 'Women' rate/most visited, so highly.
I'd like to think that this album holds as my idea or benchmark for what is acceptable here at MyOpera ~ You are able to flag anything you may define as unacceptable if you wish. But really there is nothing in this album that i can see that is demoralizing or derogatory to women.
There is one factor in all of this, i only show women who eat regularly ~ so to speak! In this arena there will always be a struggle to stay a certain weight. As men i believe we should try to change Model Agencies tragic norms...in this i mean... Women with curves is what makes them so attractive to us. Women looking strong, focused and in control of their own destiny and eating REGULARLY!

This should be the norm with our cat-walk models especially. And i know! Yes, all garments will look good on a basically 'thin' model. An elegant strong women does not need to be pencil thin to make designers cloth look grand! And the swimwear arena ~ imho a women in a bikini that is too thin is simply SHOCKING!
At the end of the day it is simply another album to add to my Gallery ~ take from it what you will :up:

Congratulations are in order for Gisele {inset image} she is expecting her first child :hat:
