Pumuckl, today we will take the train to Alexandria!

School Board Offers No Explanation for Search DelayAlmost a year after the Alexandria School Board voted to seek a new chief, and just when it appeared on the verge of finding one, the process slowed suddenly this week.In one brief paragraph, the board said it extended its search for a superintendent, terminated its $20,000 contract with a national recruiting firm and continues to employ William Symons as interim superintendent. Symons will not seek the permanent position.... This from the Washington Post.

Among the attractions of condo living in Northern Virginia are affordability compared to single family homes and townhouses, less maintenance than a large home, and convenience of location.  Location plays a big factor especially in Arlington and Alexandria where many condominium owners commute to work in D.C.  As the two suburbs closest to the District, Arlington and Alexandria are always in high demand among homebuyers and these two areas have not been hit as hard by the housing decline as many of the further out suburbs in Fairfax County, and especially in Prince William and Loudoun Counties.  One factor that plays a large role in the commuting equation and thus in choice of location is presence of the subway, or the Metro, as we fondly call it here in the Metropolitan Wa

...I'm usually not one for gossip or things like this, but for some reason it's just very interesting to me? So interesting in fact, I find it necessary to post on my "Mets" blog :-) (Plus having this content on my site does wonders for my adsense account, lol) Here is a story from Newsday regarding her background and some things her friends have said. It actually premises on her Myspace page, in which "Kristen" depicted herself as someone who grew up in poverty and sometimes even homelesness (Which couldn't be farther from the truth). Ashley Alexandra Dupré, an alleged call girl known as "Kristen," who helped bring down New York's governor, writes of a past checkered with poverty and even homelessness.It's a tough image to reconcile with the wealthy surroundings of a childhood spent wi

Researches have found traces of a forgotten city that existed 700 years before Alexander the Great founded Alexandria as part of his efforts to conquer the known world.While studying Greek and Roman ruins in the waters around the Egyptian city, Jean-Daniel Stanley of the Smithsonian Institution's National Museum of Natural History and his colleagues discovered evidence of building construction that was much older than they had expected.Historians have generally agreed that some settlement—a modest fishing village, a more substantial walled center or possibly a fortified settlement—referred to in ancient histories as Rhakotis existed here centuries before Alexander arrived. But until this discovery, they lacked physical evidence.In 2001, Stanley, working with a team of geologists, anthropologists and geochemists, collected seven underwater sediment core samples measuring three inches wide, 6 to 18 feet long and up to 20 feet underwater from sites scattered across Alexandria's near

Ok I received a respond from the Viscount Anthony of Alexandria in less than 24 hours about the Duchess of Alexandria inquiry email I sent to her and it seems that some people are so bothered by my logic questions , already I do not know who is the Viscount Anthony of Alexandria , it seems those people are distributing titles as they like , well nothing wrong in that but they should not associate it with my country or its town , one is Alexandria another one is Aswan, not to mention that even in time of Monarchy we did not have these titles Anyhow here is the respond of the Viscount Dear MrsTo begin I do not of a Mrs Liala but I do know of a Princess Liala.  The Royal Council and I do know who SHE is but we do not know who you are and if you are at all legitimate.  You might want to correct your email address as it suggests that you live in the UK not EGYPT.The Council and I wish not to waste any of our precious time regarding Princess Liala or about any correspondence

I do not know if that was scoop or what , it began with a comment , it always starts with a comment in the last place in the last post I can imagine I mean when I got home I found that in my Vox blog ,in two photos I posted there and forgot them there were two interesting comments here and there and as soon as I read "Seeing my father" and the comment's name "H.I.R.H princess Liala Fuad" ,I had to read the comments again amazed as H.I.R.H Princess Liala Fuad said in my *blog* that she was the daughter of king Farouk and that her mom from the Savoy royal house married King Farouk in year 1956 and she was born in year 1957 !! Strange yes and bizarre yes ,shocking well I am used to hear all sorts of rumors about king Farouk including his intention to form as assassin clan like Hassan El-Sabah to the rumors about his sexuality ,yes I read online that he was a gay !! well It is known lately that he created this womanizer fame , but for sure he was not a gay and he did not want to be the

A drawing of the lighthouse by German archaeologist Prof. H. Thiersch (1909), later used as an illustration in The House of Ptolemy by E. R. Bevan published by Methuen Publishing, London, 1927. Some of which is quoted below. High Resolution Image"On the island of Pharos, the famous lighthouse, reckoned one of the wonders of the world, was built by the architect Sostratus of Cnidos, begun, no doubt, under Ptolemy I and finished early in the reign of Ptolemy II. "The material used in its construction was chiefly nummulitic limestone. The sculptural decoration as well as other accessory ornamentation was partly in marble and partly in bronze. The innumerable columns were for the most part of Aswan granite.The lantern was formed of eight columns, surmounted by a cupola above which was raised a bronze statue (probably of Poseidon) about seven metres high. The flame was obtained by burning resinous wood. It is believed that convex mirrors made of metal were used to give a longer p96range to

.uma visita a Alexandria recomenda-se, mas evitem o Pompei Pillar. Basicamente é um pilar gredo (é o que resta de um palácio que terá havido aqui) muito remendado com cimento, uns buracos no chão que putativamente foram túmulos e umas 4 estátuas egipcias também remendadas com cimento..A estória por trás do nome do pilar é curiosa: visitantes europeus ao verem o pilar, lembraram-se das ruínas de Pompeia então muito na berra. Daí a chamar-lhe "Pompey Pillar", foi um passo. Em Alexandria posso recomendar as catacumbas de Kom el-Shoqafa, a mesquita Abu al-Abbas al-Mursi, o forte de Quait-Bay, o Palacio Muntazah em Sidi Bisher e as praias circundantes.photos shot in Alexandria.

Exactamente no mesmo local onde durante séculos reluziu o Farol de Alexandria existe desde o século XV o forte de Quait-Bay. Tem uma posição que domina toda a baía onde está plantada Alexandria e grandes vistas sobre o Mediterrâneo e a cidade.ao fundo consegue-se vislumbrar a biblioteca de Alexandria.junto ao forte existe o museu sub-aquático. Pelo que entendi é o único do género no mundo e permite vislumbrar estátuas do período egípcio, grego e romano nos locais onde os tremores de terra os deixaram : no fundo da baía. O museu encontra-se presentemente fechado para obras.photos shot in Alexandria

At this point of the day, am reading a book on Cleopatra! It’s not a prose but poetry! Written in one of India’s regional language Tamil and written not by yours truly Honey Bee but by Pa.Vijay. I thoroughly enjoy his political insights and his usage of words… Read below the English form of the same translated by this humble bee! Though I haven’t got the writer’s approval, here I am reproducing the same: It’s not the encounter between Caesar and Patra…it’s between Mark Antony and Patra! Their Love! They have a sword fight and as it grows this is what happens:One on one They hit each other Got up Got down Ran up Ran down Rolled Measured the floor Let the sword drop With open Spread hands Tears gleaming body getting hot Slowing down Breathing heavily Their dress got crushed So were their bodies Somewhere Something grew There was no Sound of war Sound of kiss Grew more Desires woke up Leaving no air Between them As they held hands Their t

Nalanda and Alexandria - separated in time and space but with three things in common (at least):Seats of learningDamaged by firesDestroyed by religious zealots.Maybe that is the distinguishing mark that separates the genuine spiritual seeker from the religious zealot: the former welcomes knowledge and understanding, whereas the later fears it.Of course book-burners don't have to be motivated by religion - it's just that they often are.
