Orchids, Yeomiji Indoor Gardens
One of my favourite gardens in the world is the Yeomiji Botanical Garden on Jeju Island at the south tip of South Korea. There are 3 major parts to this botanical garden. The centre hall and observatory, the outdoor gardens and the indoor gardens.
The five immense glass houses could keep you totally consumed for days... especially if you bring your camera. Lots to sample - here's the menu:
1. the Flower Garden
2. the Aquatic Garden
3. the Cactus Garden
4. the Jungle Garden
5. the Tropical Garden
6. the Fruit Garden
When you come into the Centre Hall, the Flower Garden is the first greenhouse on your left. This is where you'll find the orchids, and who doesn't love orchids?

Carlow Arts Festival 2016
Carlow was home to the first big cultural event of Summer 2016 – the 37th Carlow Arts Festival. This year we were more than a festival – we were three festivals in one, celebrating all the very best of cultural Carlow. We got inspired at the Borris Festival of Writing and Ideas. This year brought world famous authors, artists and thinkers to Borris for an inspiring weekend (June 10-12) of thought provoking conversation and ideas. Then we sailed up-river with Barges on the Barrow (June 14-16) our floating mini-festival delivered a cargo of music and fun events at Carlow’s riverside towns from June 14-16. Finally, we were delighted to announce a brand new arrival – The Big Weekender!

Listening is a more natural way of learning, when compared to reading. Written language only began at around 3200 BC, but spoken language has existed long ago.
Learning by listening is a great way to:
- increases imagination and understanding
- improves your listening skills
- improves your own spoken accent
- learn while on the move
- reduce eye strain
Now learn the vast amount of general knowledge available on Wikipedia through audio (audio article). You could even learn subconsciously by playing the audio while you are sleeping! If you are planning to listen a lot, you could try using a bone conduction headphone, or a standard speaker instead of an earphone.

SUMMARY
=======
Pittsburgh ( PITS-burg) is a city in the state of Pennsylvania in the United States, and is the county seat of Allegheny County. A population of about 301,048 residents live within the city limits, making it the 66th-largest city in the U.S. The metropolitan population of 2,324,743 is the largest in both the Ohio Valley and Appalachia, the second-largest in Pennsylvania (behind Philadelphia), and the 27th-largest in the U.S.
Pittsburgh is located in the southwest of the state, at the confluence of the Allegheny, Monongahela, and Ohio rivers. Pittsburgh is known both as the Steel City for its more than 300 steel-related businesses and as the City of Bridges for its 446 bridges. The city features 30 skyscrapers, two inclined railways, a pre-revolutionary fortification and the Point State Park at the confluence of the rivers. The city developed as a vital link of the Atlantic coast and Midwest, as the mineral-rich Allegheny Mountains made the area coveted by the French and British empires, Virginians, Whiskey Rebels, and Civil War raiders.Aside from steel, Pittsburgh has led in manufacturing of aluminum, glass, shipbuilding, petroleum, foods, sports, transportation, computing, autos, and electronics. For part of the 20th century, Pittsburgh was behind only New York City and Chicago in corporate headquarters employment; it had the most U.S. stockholders per capita. America's 1980s deindustrialization laid off area blue-collar workers and thousands of downtown white-collar workers when the longtime Pittsburgh-based world headquarters moved out. This heritage left the area with renowned museums, medical centers, parks, research centers, and a diverse cultural district.Today, Google, Apple Inc., Bosch, Facebook, Uber, Nokia, Autodesk, Microsoft and IBM are among 1,600 technology firms generating $20.7 billion in annual Pittsburgh payrolls. The area has served as the long-time federal agency headquarters for cyber defense, software engineering, robotics, energy research and the nuclear navy. The area is home to 68 colleges and universities, including research and development leaders Carnegie Mellon University and the University of Pittsburgh. The nation's eighth-largest bank, eight Fortune 500 co ...
