Benazir's page

Benazir's Pages deal with whatever has popped into Benazir's head lately. Could be anything from Feng Shui
to Psycho Geometrics to buying a nuclear submarine.

What happens to a bored belly dancer? She goes back to college of course! Naturally, only interesting subjects
will be taken. Astronomy updates on the way...

Staerkel Planetarium

I am thinking we should consider a show in the 2nd largest planetarium in the state. I'm not sure how it will work,
but I am letting the idea percolate.

Benazir's entry for the Postcards from Venus contest.
Can you believe it didn't win!! It didn't even place!!! I know it's gauche to interpret your own artistic endeavors- but I am just so darn pleased with myself! I believe this to be a scientifically sound rendition
of the surface of Venus. I don't happen to believe there is lightning, so the light source is the sun at what I think would be its brightest. I also subscribe to the windier
version of Venus. If you look closely in the dust cloud, you will find my nod to the inhabitants of Venus. This theory would explain a lot about belly dancers and their proclivities.
