(Our Lady of Apparition).We go back to 1717, when the rivers were still clean enough to contain large amounts of fish. Fishermen Domingos Garcia, Felipe Pedroso and João Alves caught a remarkable object in their nets in the Paraíba River (state of São Paulo). It was a dark, headless statue. Their second catch was the missing head. The two pieces were parts of the statue of Nossa Senhora Aparecida. Their third and forth catches were suddenly rich in fish. For about fifteen years, Pedroso kept the statue in his house. Already some pilgrims visited him. A chapel was built, and a little more than a century later, in 1834, the so-called Basílica Velha was constructed. In 1929, Nossa Senhora Aparecida was declared Queen and patron saint of Brazil, by Pope Pius XI. In 1955, due to the increasing number of pilgrims, a start was made with the construction of Basílica Nova (by architect Benedito Calixto de Jesus Neto), which is only a bit smaller (a cross shape of 173 x 168 meters) than Saint Peter in Rome. At present, more than seven million pilgrims visit the Basílica.
Some miracles are considered to be related to the statue:
A burning candle that did not extinguish. The spontaneous opening chains that liberated a slave. An infidel horseman who did not manage to force his horse to enter the chapel. A blind girl who instantly was able to see the Basílica. A young boy who could not swim, but was kept above the water surface in the rapids. A prayer of a hunter that made a jaguar run.
At noon, fireworks will be ignited throughout Brazil. It is believed that the statue was brought to the surface at this time.

Dia da Criança
(Child). Dia da Criança is – next to Christmas, Easter and Independence Day – one of the principal Brazilian feast days. The idea for ‘Dia da Criança’ was introduced by federal congressman Galdino do Valle Filho, in the early twenties of the past century. On 5 November 1924, president Arthur Bernardes issued the decree (No. 4867) that ‘Dia da Criança’ should be held on 12 October. In the same year, the first worldwide Declaration of Child’s Rights (World Child Welfare Charter) was formulated and ratified by more than fifty nations of the League of Nations:
The child must be given the means requisite for its normal development, both materially and spiritually;
The child that is hungry must be fed; the child that is sick must be nursed; the child that is backward must be helped; the delinquent child must be reclaimed; and the orphan and the waif must be sheltered and succored;
The child must be the first to receive relief in times of distress;
The child must be put in a position to earn a livelihood, and must be protected against every form of exploitation;
The child must be brought up in the consciousness that its talents must be devoted to the service of fellow men. The Dia da Criança as Brazilians know now, only exists since 1960. In that year, commercial manager Eber Alfred Goldberg of toy factory Estrela, in cooperation with Johnson & Johnson, introduced the ‘week of the healthy baby’ (“Semana do Bebê Robusto”), with the intention to generate a significant boost upon sales numbers of toys. At present, shopping days prior to Dia da Criança provide such a turnover, which is only exceeded by the period prior to Christmas.

The South Atlantic Ocean and Indian Ocean for the Portuguese, The North Atlantic Ocean and Pacific Ocean for the Spanish. In the 17th century, a Dutch lawyer Hugo Grotius (Hugo de Groot: 1583-1645) published his book ‘Mare Liberum‘ (1608), in which he stated that territorial water should not extend more than a few miles from the shoreline. The rest of the oceans should be considered as international territory.

The Genoese discoverer Cristóvão Colombo had the plan to find a shorter route to the Indies, by sailing westward. In Genua, he was considered to be mad. In Portugal, his plans were rejected, but he had success in Spain. On 3 August 1492, Colombo departed with three caravels: Niña, Pinta, and Santa Maria. The American continent was reached on 12 October, the island was named San Salvador (Holy Savior). The cartographic work and detailed reports by Amérigo Vespucci were honored by naming the newly discovered continent after the famous navigator.

Only recently, one of the mysteries was solved: the exact location of his remains is in Sevilla.

Dia do Basquete
(Basketball). In the long winter of 1891, Canadian professor James Naismith wrote the basic rules of basketball. This was requested by school manager Luther Halsey Gullick, in the American state of Massachusetts. The first college match was held on 11 March 1892. Brazilwas one of the first countries outside the United States, where basketball was introduced. Augusto Shaw studied at Yale University in 1892, when he got acquainted with basketball for the first time. In 1895, he received an invitation of Colégio Kennedy (São Paulo) , to give lectures. He brought his study books and a basketball to Brazil. Obviously, the basketball game was almost immediately accepted by women, while men had some doubts about it. They were more interested in soccer. In 1992, the Brazilian national team played their first match, at the day of the centenary of Brazilian independence.

BRAZILIAN HISTORY:
1931 Inauguration of the Cristo Redentor statue in Rio de Janeiro.
On seven-seven-seven, Cristo Redentor was proclaimed as one of the seven modern world wonders. The statue is located on top of the Corcovado Mountain. Already in 1859, there was an idea to create a religious monument on top of the Corcovado. In 1885, the railway to the top of the Corcovado was completed. The railway was suitable for the transport of construction materials and – at a later time – tourists. In 1921, there was a serious proposal to construct Cristo Redentor. It was intended to have its inauguration on the day of the centenary of Brazilian independence, on 7 September 1922. On 4 April 1922, the cornerstone was placed. In 1923, engineer Heitor da Silva Costa won the design contest. During the Week of the Monument, money was collected. In 1926, the construction of Cristo Redentor was started. The final touches were performed by Carlos Oswald and the French artist Paul Landowski. Italian scientist Guglielmo Marconi was invited to inaugurate the illumination. From his yacht in Naples, he sent an electric signal that was transferred through England to Rio. Unfortunately, bad weather conditions made this attempt unsuccessful. In 1980, the monument underwent rigorous restoration, while more touristic facilities were implemented in 2000.

1798 Birth of Dom Pedro I (1798-1834).
Pedro de Alcântara Francisco Antônio João Carlos Xavier de Paula Miguel Rafael Joaquim José Gonzaga Pascoal Cipriano Serafim de Bragança e Bourbon was born in Queluz Palace in Lisbon. Thirty-six years later, he died there. In 1801, Pedro was declared crown prince of Portugal. At the age of nine, he – together with his family and the Court – departed for Brazil, where he spent his childhood. Pedro tuned out to be a rebellious boy who did not behave like a crown prince at all. His bohemian lifestyle resulted in five children and thirteen bastard children. In 1822, Pedro proclaimed the independence of Brazil; at the age of 24, he was crowned as emperor of Brazil. After the death of his father, Dom João VI, Pedro was king of Portugal for a few months. His daughter Maria succeeded him. In 1831, Pedro abdicated, and was succeeded by his son Pedro. Pedro I returned to Portugal for treatment of TB.

Padre Diogo already had had a number of political and public positions, before he was appointed as Minister of Justice, after the abdication of emperor Dom Pedro I, in 1831. He quickly stepped down, due to a political disagreement. In 1833, Padre Diogo was appointed as senator of the state of Rio de Janeiro. In 1835, he became Regente Único do Reino, until 1837. Padre Diogo then had a number of positions, among which the coronation of emperor Dom Pedro II. His participation in the 1842 Liberal Revolution resulted in imprisonment for some months.
Dia das Bandeirantes (Girl Scouts). On 30 May 1919, Adéle Lynch organized an informative meeting in her house in Rio de Janeiro.

Dia Internacional do Desafio (International Challenge Day). In 1983, an idea was born to save energy in a small Canadian town. In winter, at 3 pm at a temperature of minus 20 degrees centigrade, the inhabitants were requested to switch off the lights at home, and to lower the central heating, while they would walk around for fifteen minutes. The town was able to calculate the collective energy consumption and how many inhabitants were indeed participating. This initiative was then moved to May, and introduced in a growing number of countries. At present TAFISA (Trim and Fitness International Sport for All Association) is organizing this day. In Brazil, the activities are organized by SESC. In 2006, no less than 50 million Southern Americans were active in almost 3000 locations.

In 1822, Pedro proclaimed the independence of Brazil; at the age of 24, he was crowned as emperor of Brazil. After the death of his father, Dom João VI, Pedro was king of Portugal for a few months. His daughter Maria succeeded him. In 1831, Pedro abdicated, and was succeeded by his son Pedro. Pedro I returned to Portugal for treatment of TB.

1835 Diogo Antônio Feijó (1784-1843) appointed as regent of the Brazilian Empire.
Padre Diogo already had had a number of political and public positions, before he was appointed as Minister of Justice, after the abdication of emperor Dom Pedro I, in 1831. He quickly stepped down, due to a political disagreement. In 1833, Padre Diogo was appointed as senator of the state of Rio de Janeiro. In 1835, he became Regente Único do Reino, until 1837. Padre Diogo then had a number of positions, among which the coronation of emperor Dom Pedro II. His participation in the 1842 Liberal Revolution resulted in imprisonment for some months.
Dia das Bandeirantes (Girl Scouts). On 30 May 1919, Adéle Lynch organized an informative meeting in her house in Rio de Janeiro. She wanted to create a unit of Girl Scouts in Brazil, as was requested by Lord Baden Powell in a letter to her. The “Associação das Girl Guides do Brasil”, was eventually renamed into “Federação de Bandeirantes do Brasil” . On 13 August, the first 11 girl scouts were sworn in.

Dia Internacional do Desafio (International Challenge Day). In 1983, an idea was born to save energy in a small Canadian town. In winter, at 3 pm at a temperature of minus 20 degrees centigrade, the inhabitants were requested to switch off the lights at home, and to lower the central heating, while they would walk around for fifteen minutes. The town was able to calculate the collective energy consumption and how many inhabitants were indeed participating. This initiative was then moved to May, and introduced in a growing number of countries. At present TAFISA (Trim and Fitness International Sport for All Association) is organizing this day. In Brazil, the activities are organized by SESC. In 2006, no less than 50 million Southern Americans were active in almost 3000 locations.

(Our Lady of Apparition).We go back to 1717, when the rivers were still clean enough to contain large amounts of fish. Fishermen Domingos Garcia, Felipe Pedroso and João Alves caught a remarkable object in their nets in the Paraíba River (state of São Paulo). It was a dark, headless statue. Their second catch was the missing head. The two pieces were parts of the statue of Nossa Senhora Aparecida. Their third and forth catches were suddenly rich in fish. For about fifteen years, Pedroso kept the statue in his house. Already some pilgrims visited him. A chapel was built, and a little more than a century later, in 1834, the so-called Basílica Velha was constructed. In 1929, Nossa Senhora Aparecida was declared Queen and patron saint of Brazil, by Pope Pius XI. In 1955, due to the increasing number of pilgrims, a start was made with the construction of Basílica Nova (by architect Benedito Calixto de Jesus Neto), which is only a bit smaller (a cross shape of 173 x 168 meters) than Saint Peter in Rome. At present, more than seven million pilgrims visit the Basílica.
Some miracles are considered to be related to the statue:
A burning candle that did not extinguish. The spontaneous opening chains that liberated a slave. An infidel horseman who did not manage to force his horse to enter the chapel. A blind girl who instantly was able to see the Basílica. A young boy who could not swim, but was kept above the water surface in the rapids. A prayer of a hunter that made a jaguar run.
At noon, fireworks will be ignited throughout Brazil. It is believed that the statue was brought to the surface at this time.

Dia da Criança
(Child). Dia da Criança is – next to Christmas, Easter and Independence Day – one of the principal Brazilian feast days. The idea for ‘Dia da Criança’ was introduced by federal congressman Galdino do Valle Filho, in the early twenties of the past century. On 5 November 1924, president Arthur Bernardes issued the decree (No. 4867) that ‘Dia da Criança’ should be held on 12 October. In the same year, the first worldwide Declaration of Child’s Rights (World Child Welfare Charter) was formulated and ratified by more than fifty nations of the League of Nations:
The child must be given the means requisite for its normal development, both materially and spiritually;
The child that is hungry must be fed; the child that is sick must be nursed; the child that is backward must be helped; the delinquent child must be reclaimed; and the orphan and the waif must be sheltered and succored;
The child must be the first to receive relief in times of distress;
The child must be put in a position to earn a livelihood, and must be protected against every form of exploitation;
The child must be brought up in the consciousness that its talents must be devoted to the service of fellow men. The Dia da Criança as Brazilians know now, only exists since 1960. In that year, commercial manager Eber Alfred Goldberg of toy factory Estrela, in cooperation with Johnson & Johnson, introduced the ‘week of the healthy baby’ (“Semana do Bebê Robusto”), with the intention to generate a significant boost upon sales numbers of toys. At present, shopping days prior to Dia da Criança provide such a turnover, which is only exceeded by the period prior to Christmas.

The American continent was reached on 12 October, the island was named San Salvador (Holy Savior). The cartographic work and detailed reports by Amérigo Vespucci were honored by naming the newly discovered continent after the famous navigator.

This was requested by school manager Luther Halsey Gullick, in the American state of Massachusetts. The first college match was held on 11 March 1892. Brazilwas one of the first countries outside the United States, where basketball was introduced. Augusto Shaw studied at Yale University in 1892, when he got acquainted with basketball for the first time. In 1895, he received an invitation of Colégio Kennedy (São Paulo) , to give lectures. He brought his study books and a basketball to Brazil. Obviously, the basketball game was almost immediately accepted by women, while men had some doubts about it. They were more interested in soccer. In 1992, the Brazilian national team played their first match, at the day of the centenary of Brazilian independence.

BRAZILIAN HISTORY:
1931 Inauguration of the Cristo Redentor statue in Rio de Janeiro.
On seven-seven-seven, Cristo Redentor was proclaimed as one of the seven modern world wonders. The statue is located on top of the Corcovado Mountain. Already in 1859, there was an idea to create a religious monument on top of the Corcovado. In 1885, the railway to the top of the Corcovado was completed. The railway was suitable for the transport of construction materials and – at a later time – tourists. In 1921, there was a serious proposal to construct Cristo Redentor. It was intended to have its inauguration on the day of the centenary of Brazilian independence, on 7 September 1922. On 4 April 1922, the cornerstone was placed. In 1923, engineer Heitor da Silva Costa won the design contest. During the Week of the Monument, money was collected. In 1926, the construction of Cristo Redentor was started. The final touches were performed by Carlos Oswald and the French artist Paul Landowski. Italian scientist Guglielmo Marconi was invited to inaugurate the illumination. From his yacht in Naples, he sent an electric signal that was transferred through England to Rio. Unfortunately, bad weather conditions made this attempt unsuccessful. In 1980, the monument underwent rigorous restoration, while more touristic facilities were implemented in 2000.

In 1926, the first bank office was opened in Rio de Janeiro, followed by the first office in São Paulo in 1927. Both locations are now cultural centers of the bank. At present, Banco de Brasil has more van 25 million bank accounts, and is one of the largest banks in Brazil.

1798 Birth of Dom Pedro I (1798-1834).
Pedro de Alcântara Francisco Antônio João Carlos Xavier de Paula Miguel Rafael Joaquim José Gonzaga Pascoal Cipriano Serafim de Bragança e Bourbon was born in Queluz Palace in Lisbon. Thirty-six years later, he died there. In 1801, Pedro was declared crown prince of Portugal. At the age of nine, he – together with his family and the Court – departed for Brazil, where he spent his childhood. Pedro tuned out to be a rebellious boy who did not behave like a crown prince at all. His bohemian lifestyle resulted in five children and thirteen bastard children. In 1822, Pedro proclaimed the independence of Brazil; at the age of 24, he was crowned as emperor of Brazil. After the death of his father, Dom João VI, Pedro was king of Portugal for a few months. His daughter Maria succeeded him. In 1831, Pedro abdicated, and was succeeded by his son Pedro. Pedro I returned to Portugal for treatment of TB.

1835 Diogo Antônio Feijó (1784-1843) appointed as regent of the Brazilian Empire.
Padre Diogo already had had a number of political and public positions, before he was appointed as Minister of Justice, after the abdication of emperor Dom Pedro I, in 1831. He quickly stepped down, due to a political disagreement. In 1833, Padre Diogo was appointed as senator of the state of Rio de Janeiro. In 1835, he became Regente Único do Reino, until 1837. Padre Diogo then had a number of positions, among which the coronation of emperor Dom Pedro II. His participation in the 1842 Liberal Revolution resulted in imprisonment for some months.

169. Big leaf
MARCH 2008: Big leaf
One of my favorite locations in Rio is the Botanical Garden. This city garden, located between Lagoa Rodrigo de Freitas and Tijuca Forest , houses a vast collection of tropical flowers, plants, herbs, shrubs, and trees. Typical for this botanical garden are the imperial palms in a long, double row that were originally planted along the way from the garden to the Guanabara Bay. Today, only the palm trees in the garden, and along an avenue in Botafogo still remain. From the botanical garden, the Corcovado Peak – with the statue of Christ the Redeemer on top – is clearly visible. From the neighboring Lages Park, a trail can be followed, to the Corcovado Peak. The botanical garden is a perfect site for taking amazing pictures. Not only of entire trees and plants, but also close ups. Like I took this photo of a leaf from a Philodendron species. The recently raked reddish brown earth under this leaf reminds me of a big nut.

113. Mão do Cristo
OUTUBRO 2007: Mão do Cristo
A estátua do Cristo Redentor no Rio de Janeiro é considerada uma das sete Maravilhas do Mundo. E é bem fácil de conseguir uma boa foto dessa enorme estátua. Muitos turistas já tiveram essa experiência ao tentar tirar fotos no Cristo. O sol acima do Cristo pode ser algo que possa causar certo desconforto. Há momentos em que se tem uma má sorte do Cristo estar coberto de densas nuvens cobrindo-o. Uma vez, na minha visita ao Cristo em janeiro de 2007, eu tive essa experiência, mas nesse dia de outubro o mesmo estava ensolarado, com poucas nuvens. Muitos turistas tirando muitas fotos. Varios turistas estrangeiros, e em algumas vezes meus ouvidos captaram algumas palavras em holandês. Mas haviam muitos turistas para que eu conseguiu indentificar quem era o falante de holandês. Quase todo mundo tirava o mesmo tipo de foto, a famosa foto com os braços abertos, como a própria estátua, ou faziam alguma pose engraçada. Infelizmente, alguns indivíduos desrepeitosos faziam gestos obscenos na frente das câmeras. Eu aproveitei o belo tempo e tirei várias fotos de toda a estátua, assim como algumas fotos detalhando suas mãos, por exemplo. Quando eu estava fotografando a mão direita, um pombo de repente apareceu…
