Leonardo da Vinci drawings displayed in Ala.

By DESIREE HUNTER,Associated Press Writer AP - Saturday, September 27

BIRMINGHAM, Ala. - A 500-year-old group of chalk, metalpoint and ink drawings from Leonardo da Vinci's notebooks were on display Friday at the Birmingham Museum of Art, some 5,000 miles from their home museum in Italy.
ADVERTISEMENT

The exhibit was the first time the drawings have been collectively shown outside the Biblioteca Reale in Turin, and the display couldn't have been done without months of planning and some high-tech help in the form of climate-controlled frames.

The exhibit opens to the public Sunday and runs through November in Birmingham before traveling to the San Francisco Museum of Art, where it will be shown Nov. 15 to January.
It includes 11 drawings and Leonardo's Codex on the Flight of Birds, an 18-page notebook which had never been shown in the United States. Thick magnifying glasses are available for visitors to truly get a sense of the detail Leonardo packed into the drawings, some of which are nearly complete and others that seem like quick doodles.

"It's the first time that virtually every single Leonardo in this collection has traveled, so that added to the trepidation," Biblioteca Reale director Clara Vitulo said through an interpreter. "The collection of Leonardos is the most important collection for the Reale."

The group of drawings is the latest coup for the Birmingham museum, which hosted a 15-week blockbuster Pompeii exhibit last year.

Director Gail Andrews said the Leonardo show, which cost more than $420,000, will be free. She hopes that will draw more people to see what could be a once-in-lifetime event.

Knowing that Birmingham has been entrusted with some of Italy's treasures is humbling, she said.

"We're not so much nervous that something would happen, but just very aware of the magnitude of this project. Any museum in the world would be proud to have this exhibition," Andrews said.

After their San Francisco run, the drawings will return to Italy and be stored for at least a year as part of the preservation process, Vitulo said.

Two drawings that aren't included from the Reale are Leonardo's self portrait, which was deemed too fragile to travel after its 2003 showing at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, and the Battle of Anghiari, which was already committed to another show.

The exhibit would not have been possible without specially designed frames to hold each page in constant temperature and humidity. Rome's minister of culture was not comfortable with the works traveling otherwise, Vitulo said.

"Given the anxiety about lending the group as a whole, the minister of culture feels their priority is number one, preservation of the drawings and number two, to allow them to be shared," she said. "The works are their own ambassador for Italian arts and culture."

Hello again!
Below is an article that you may want to spend your time to read about.

The Paralympics: Perfection isn't everything

People were upset when officials decided that Yang Peiyi, a child singer, was not cute for the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games in Beijing, China. Peiyi’s beautiful voice was used, but she wasn’t allowed to appear.

Many believe that it is wrong to expect anyone to be “perfect”. That’s why the Paralympic Games are so meaningful. Just like the Olympics, the Paralympics are a major sporting event, except that they are specially for athletes with disabilities.

The Paralympic Games, which started in 1960, have always been held in the same year as the Olympic Games. Since the Seoul 1988 Paralympic Games, they have also taken place at the same venues as the Olympics. This year’s event is taking place now in Beijing, where the Olympics concluded recently.

Singapore has sent six athletes to the Paralympics.

Hi 1A2,
Guess what week is this week,
this week is the Tourist Attraction Week.
well,today i am going to share with you about Sentosa Island.
let's begin our adventure!
Famous attractions in Sentosa:

1)Imbiah Lookout
Situated near Mount Imbiah on Sentosa, Imbiah Lookout is the latest cluster of new and exciting attractions that will appeal to all. Adventure-seeker, nature lover, history-buff…whatever your calling, there is always something fun and exhilarating for everyone to experience.

2)Dolphin Lagoon
Included in your Underwater World ticket price is a visit to the Dolphin Lagoon. You'll get to observe the highly intelligent Indo-Pacific Humpback Dolphins through a series of interactive, feeding and training sessions specially designed to demonstrate their natural ability of tail-walking synchronization. Lucky visitors might even score a peck on the cheek, or a chance to wade next to them, fully supervised by the trainers, of course.

3)Tiger Sky Tower
Singapore's tallest observatory tower offers panoramic views at 131 metres above sea level across Singapore, Sentosa, Southern Islands, right up to neighboring Malaysia and the Indonesian islands. The Tiger Sky Tower has a capacity of 72 in its enclosed, air-conditioned cabin. Day or night, views from the tower promise to be both scenic and breathtaking. Located adjacent to the Sentosa cable car station, the Tiger Sky Tower is a key point of interest and forms a distinctive landmark as it soars above the surrounding natural greenery.

Information:
Tower height: 110m
View height: 131m from sea level
Tower column diameter: 2.5m
Foundation diameter: 15m
Cabin capacity: 72 persons

That's all for this week!
