Hudson Strait links the Atlantic Ocean and Labrador Sea to Hudson Bay in Canada. This strait lies between Baffin Island and Nunavik, with its eastern entrance marked by Cape Chidley in Newfoundland and Labrador and Resolution Island off Baffin Island; the strait is about 750 km long with an average width of 125 km, varying from 70 km at the eastern entrance to 240 km at Deception Bay. English navigator Sir Martin Frobisher was the first European to report entering the strait, in 1578, he named a tidal rip at the entrance the Furious Overfall and called the strait Mistaken Strait, since he felt it held less promise as an entrance to the Northwest Passage than the body of water, named Frobisher Bay. John Davis sailed by the entrance to the strait during his voyage of 1587; the first European to explore the strait was George Weymouth who sailed 300 nautical miles beyond the Furious Overfall in 1602. The strait was named after Henry Hudson who explored it in 1610 in the ship Discovery, the same ship used by George Weymouth in 1602.

Hudson was followed by Thomas Button in 1612, a more detailed mapping expedition led by Robert Bylot and William Baffin in 1616. Hudson Strait links the northern seaports of Ontario with the Atlantic Ocean; the Strait could serve as an eastern entrance to the Northwest Passage if it were not for ice in the Fury and Hecla Strait south of western Baffin Island. The International Hydrographic Organization defines the limits of the Hudson Strait as follows: On the West. A line from Nuvuk Point to Leyson Point, thence by the Eastern shore of Southampton Island to Seahorse Point, its Eastern extreme, thence a line to Lloyd Point Baffin Island. On the North; the South coast of Baffin Island between Lloyd Point and East Bluff. On the East. A line from East Bluff, the Southeast extreme of Baffin Island, to Point Meridian, the Western extreme of Lower Savage Islands, along the coast to its Southwestern extreme and thence a line across to the Western extreme of Resolution Island, through its Southwestern shore to Hatton Headland, its Southern point, thence a line to Cape Chidley, Labrador.

On the South. The mainland between Cape Chidley and Nuvuk Point

Robert "Bob" Coronato is an American painter and printmaker. Coronato is best known for his paintings of present-day Western Americana and American Indian life and culture. Bob Coronato was born in New Jersey, his mother was an executive assistant, his father was a C. P. A; as a boy he loved to paint. He would stare at the paintings of the "Old West" in history books and was fascinated by the culture and way of life, he and everyone around him knew. While in high school Coronato began painting murals and commission paintings for money and trade; when Coronato was 18 he moved to New York City and took a summer course in illustration at Parsons School of Art and Design and New School for Social Research. He realized he needed to be closer to the subject matter he alwayswanted to paint and applied to Otis Parsons' sister school in California. In 1991, while attending Otis Parsons in L. A. Coronato took a vacation to South Dakota, he visited the High Plains Heritage Museum in Spearfish, South Dakota which had advertised that they had original Charles Russell and Frederic Remington oil paintings.

After not seeing any paintings, he talked to Leo Giacometto. Giacometto told him; the museum was to have a grand re-opening the following spring. Coronato asked. Giacometto said. Coronato preceded to turn every assignment into Western subject matter in oil on canvas, to prepare for the show. Coronato tortured his instructors by doing this: If the assignment was to paint an advertisement for an automobile, Coronato would paint a covered wagon. After graduating from Otis Parsons with a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree, Coronato returned to Spearfish and was granted his first museum show at the age of 23. Coronato decided to get closer to his subject matter, he moved to a town with a population of less than 400 in the heart of "Cowboy Country" — Hulett, Wyoming — based on a recommendation he got at the museum show in South Dakota by a saddle maker named Carson Thomas. Carson offered the "starving artist" space above his saddle shop to work and live in while Coronato got settled. Thomas became invaluable to the direction.

Thomas introduced Coronato to many of the ranches in the area. Soon Coronato was free labor in exchange for the chance to capture the life of modern cowboys, his days were spent at brandings, helping to gather cattle, or just fixing fence on ranches as big as 300,000 acres. His nights were spent painting the events. George White, foremen of the I. P. Y ranch, his wife Vicki took Coronato under their wing, they made as George would say. He was always welcome and much of his early work comes from events and scenes from that ranch. After diving into the "cowboy" way of life Coronato was introduced to Tom Waugh. Waugh is an artist specializing in Native American subject matter and a dealer in Native American artifacts, he introduced Coronato to the world of painting this subject matter. Coronato began studying American Indian culture and present, he began collecting American Indian artifacts and soon he was drawn to the many nearby reservations. Hulett is in a hub close to the Crow and Sioux Indian reservations.

Coronato started visiting the reservations. He witnessed the beauty and tradition, in practice. Coronato respects the American Indians and their strength as a society, he wanted to share his experiences through his work and began painting the modern life on the reservations through depicting their practice of traditions. Coronato's work evolved from painting historical scenes to only painting. Coronato was soon invited to attend Crow Fair on the Crow Agency in Montana and other ceremonies held on reservations throughout Montana and South Dakota. After Coronato had spent many years painting in oils, he decide to draw, he had always been admired his intaglio copper plate etchings. Coronato began printing them in his studio in Wyoming in the late 1990s. Coronato is successful intaglio printmaker who has produced numerous images, he was dubbed the "Leonardo da Vinci of Cowboy Art" by the New York Post and has mastered the skill of original printmaking. While trying to produce more work, Coronato had been experimenting on combining the three mediums for nearly eight years.

Coronato found a new way of combining his intaglio printmaking with his love of oil painting. The pittura di strati medium of silkscreen and acrylic is the only way to achieve the effect he wanted. Coronato wanted to explore the age-old tradition of silk screen with cutting-edge techniques with the drawing and imagery from his etchings. Coronato begins by texturing a board with thick gesso. Multiple layers of acrylic paint are applied, on top of the acrylic goes the silk screened line work. Layers of translucent oil paint are built up. Oil can create fine glazes and slow to dry; as each layer builds up, they create effects of light and texture not possible with other painting techniques. This glazing technique is similar to that of the artists of the Italian Renaissance, giving the paint a luminous quality. By combining the painting mediums and the dozens of translucent layers of oil paint, the pittura di strati technique refines the work to a unique style of painting; because of all the variables in the layering and varnishing, paintings in the series are unique and can vary in color, etc.

Similar to the bronze method of producing art, the end result is the original intention

Thaipusam or Thaipoosam, is a festival celebrated by the Tamil community on the full moon in the Tamil month of Thai coinciding with Pushya star, known as Poosam in Tamil. It is observed in countries where there is a significant presence of Tamil community such as India, Sri Lanka, Mauritius Singapore, South Africa and other places where ethnic Tamils reside as a part of the local Indian diaspora population such as Réunion, Thailand, Myanmar and Tobago, Suriname and the other parts of the Caribbean, it is a national holiday in many countries like Sri Lanka, Mauritius. In certain states of Malaysia and in the nations of Sri Lanka and Mauritius it is a government and a bank holiday. In Singapore, it was a national holiday but was removed from the official list of national holidays to improve business competitiveness; the word Thaipusam is a combination of the name of the month and the name of a star, Pusam. This particular star is at its highest point during the festival; the festival commemorates the occasion when Parvati gave Murugan a Vel "spear" so he could vanquish the evil demon Soorapadman.

It is believed that Thaipusam marks Murugan's birthday. This festival was said to have been created during one of the battles between the Asuras and the Devas. At one point, the latter were defeated several times by the former; the Devas were unable to resist the onslaught of the Asura forces. In despair, they approached Shiva and entreated to give them an able leader under whose heroic leadership they might obtain victory over the Asuras, they surrendered themselves and prayed to Shiva. Shiva granted their request by creating the mighty warrior, out of his own power or Achintya Shakti, he at once assumed leadership of the celestial forces, inspired them and defeated the Asura forces and to recognise that day the people created the festival, Thaipusam. According to Skanda Puranam, the legend of Murugan, Thirupugal which are divine verses on Murugan, adhere to Shaivam principles. Murugan is the embodiment of Shiva's light and wisdom and devotees pray to him to overcome the obstacles they face, as He is the divine vanquisher of evil.

The motive of Thaipusam festival is to pray to God to receive his grace so that bad traits are destroyed. The Kavadi Attam is a ceremonial act of devotional sacrifice through dance, food offerings, bodily self-mortification, it is performed by devotees during the festival of Thaipusam in honor of Murugan. The kavadi is a semicircular, decorated canopy supported by a wooden rod that the pilgrim carries on their shoulders to the temple; the devotee makes the pilgrimage with bare feet. Depending on the location of the temple, this walk to the temple can take more than a week; the temple of Murugan in Palani is a popular destination. The Palani Murugan temple has a reputation as a place of healing. Bogar made the statue of Murugan with the mixture of several sidhha medicines. Devotees prepare for the celebration by keeping their body always clean, doing regular prayers, following a vegetarian diet and fasting before the Thaipusam. Kavadi-bearers have to perform elaborate ceremonies at the time of assuming the kavadi and at the time of offering it to Murugan.

The kavadi-bearer observes celibacy and consumes only certain types of foods known as satvik food, once a day, while continuously thinking of God. On the day of the festival, devotees shave their heads and undertake a pilgrimage along a set route, while engaging in various acts of devotion, notably carrying the various types of kavadi; the devotees believe that worshiping lord Murugan every year in this way makes them physically and mentally healthy, helps clear them of karmic debts they may have incurred. At its simplest, the pilgrimage may entail walking the route carrying a pot of milk, but mortification of the flesh by piercing the skin, tongue or cheeks with vel skewers is common. In addition, some pierce their cheeks, all the way through, with a small spear. A similar practice is performed by the Nagarathar community in India; this is known as the Nagarathar Kavadi. In Palani Sri Dhandayuthapani temple, 10 day Festival is held during Thaipusam. Thirukalyanam will be held on the day before Thaipusam.

On Thaipusam, Therottam will be held. Lord Muthukumaraswamy will bless devotees in Thanga Guthirai Vahanam, Periya Thanga Mayil Vahanam, Theppotsavam during the 10 day festival. In Chidamabaram Panchamurthi Veedhi Ula, Thaandava Darsanam Aarthi will be held on Thaipusam. In Madurai Sri Meenakshi Amman Temple, Sri Meenakshi Sundareshwarar Theppotsavam will be held at Mariammam Theppa Kulam. In Mylapore Kapaleeswarar Temple, 3 Day Theppotsavam will be held during Thaipusam Pournami. Outside India, Thaipusam celebrations take place in USA, Malaysia, South Africa and Singapore, it is a public holiday in several states in Malaysia. In Malaysia, the temple at Batu Caves, near Kuala Lumpur & Arulmigu Balathandayuthapani Temple, Penang near George Town, Penang & Nattukkottai Chettiar Temple and Ipoh Kallumalai,Perak attracts over one million devotees and tens of thousands of tourists.
