Last year I posted one with the same title! It seems there will be endless numbers! hehe

 

I haven't done a dictionary entry for a while!

Cattle stop signs are a familiar sign on many of the NZ back roads, and are known as Cattle grids or guards in places other than New Zealand.

Note the bullet holes in the top part of the sign :-)

As depicted in the 1989 film, Ariel is the youngest of King Triton's seven daughters (being 16-years-old). She is shown as being adventurous and curious about the world of humans, a fascination which angers her father as merfolk are forbidden from making contact with the human world. Her best friend in the film is a fish named Flounder, and she develops a close relationship with a crab named Sebastian.

Ariel salvages human items and keeps them in a secret grotto as part of her collection.

 

Over the course of the film Ariel saves the life of and falls in love with a human prince named Eric. She visits the sea witch, Ursula, to trade her voice for legs for three days in order to get a chance to win Eric's heart, not realising that this agreement is part of Ursula's bigger plan to trap Ariel's father, King Triton.

 

Ariel almost manages to win the agreement by getting the "kiss of true love", but is stopped by Ursula's underhanded tactics. When the three day limit has passed, Ariel returns to mermaid form and is claimed by Ursula. King Triton trades himself for Ariel, enabling Ursula to claim the trident. In the battle that follows, Eric destroys Ursula. When the film ends, Ariel is transformed into a human permanently by King Triton's trident, and marries Prince Eric

در دل من چیزی است،

 

مثل یک بیشه ی نور،

 

مثل خواب دم صبح

 

و چنان بی تابم، که دلم می خواهد

 

بدوم تا ته دشت،بروم تا سر کوه.

 

دورها آوایی است، که مرا می خواند.

Calentamiento global

 

22 de Abril dia Mundial de la Tierra

  

El bióxido de carbono y otros contaminantes del aire se acumulan en la atmósfera formando una capa cada vez más gruesa, atrapando el calor del sol y causando el calentamiento del planeta. La principal fuente de contaminación por la emisión de bióxido de carbono son las plantas de generación de energía a base de carbón, pues emiten 2,500 millones de toneladas al año. La segunda causa principal, son los automóviles, emiten casi 1,500 millones de toneladas de CO2 al año.

Sí. Aunque las temperaturas locales fluctúan de manera natural, en los últimos 50 años los registros demuestran que la temperatura mundial promedio ha aumentado al ritmo más rápido de la historia. Además, los expertos piensan que esta tendencia se está acelerando: los tres años más calurosos que se han registrado ocurrieron a partir de 1998. Los científicos dicen que si no se revierten las emisiones que causan el calentamiento global, a finales del siglo las temperaturas promedio podrían aumentar de 3 a 9 grados.

PLAYA EL TUNCO

 

Playa El Tunco exclusivamente para practicar el surfing, muchos europeos y estadounidenses han quedado fascinados por las olas salvadoreñas, catalogadas entre las mejores del mundo para surfear.

La playa El Tunco, famosa por su gigantesco peñasco que antaño tenía la forma de porcino.

 

El Sunzal se divide en una segunda playas que lleva el nombre de la formación rocosa que todos llaman El Tunco. Dada la cantidad de personas que visitan esta playa es aquí donde se vienen organizando fiestas playeras o batucadas en las que se vive la música frente el mar hasta altas horas de la madrugada.

   

Coisas Bonitas

Bonitas são as coisas vindas do interior,

as palavras simples,

sinceras e significativas.

Bonito é o sorriso que vem de dentro,

o brilho dos olhos...

Bonito é o dia de sol depois da noite chuvosa ou

as noites enluaradas de verão em que todos saem de casa.

Bonito é procurar estrelas no céu e

dar de presente ao amigo, amiga, namorado (a)...

Bonito é chorar quando sentir vontade

e deixar que as lágrimas rolem sem vergonha ou medo de crítica.

Bonito é gostar da vida e viver do sonho.

Bonito é você ser você,

do jeito que você é,

sem máscaras,

sem falsidades,

sem falcatruas,

com transparência e,

principalmente,

com muita bondade e honestidade.

 

Desperte para a vida!

Creia no seu poder de transformar a dor

em alegria, a tristeza em felicidade.

Você é capaz de mudar o seu destino.

Abrace a vida

com amor e ela lhe recompensará!

  

Pretty Things

Things are the things comings of the interior, the simple, sincere and significant words. Pretty it is the smile that comes of inside, the brightness of the eyes… Pretty it is the day of sun after the rainy night or the moonshine nights of summer where all leave house. Pretty it is to look stars in the sky and to give of gift to the friend, friend, boyfriend (a)… Pretty it is to cry when to feel will and to leave that the tears roll without shame or fear of critical. Pretty it is to like the life and life it dream. Pretty she is you to be you, of the skill that you is, without masks, falsenesses, without impostures, with transparency and, mainly, much goodness and honesty. To awaken for the life! It believes in its power to transform pain into joy, the sadness in happiness. You it is capable to change its destination. It hugs the life with love and it will reward to it!

LA QUIETE DOPO LA TEMPESTA -

 

Passata è la tempesta:

Odo augelli far festa, e la gallina,

Tornata in su la via,

Che ripete il suo verso. Ecco il sereno

Rompe là da ponente, alla montagna;

Sgombrasi la campagna,

E chiaro nella valle il fiume appare.

Ogni cor si rallegra, in ogni lato

Risorge il romorio

Torna il lavoro usato.

L'artigiano a mirar l'umido cielo,

Con l'opra in man, cantando,

Fassi in su l'uscio; a prova

Vien fuor la femminetta a còr dell'acqua

Della novella piova;

E l'erbaiuol rinnova

Di sentiero in sentiero

Il grido giornaliero.

Ecco il Sol che ritorna, ecco sorride

Per li poggi e le ville. Apre i balconi,

Apre terrazzi e logge la famiglia:

E, dalla via corrente, odi lontano

Tintinnio di sonagli; il carro stride

Del passegger che il suo cammin ripiglia.

.................

(Di Giacomo Leopardi)

Luna (Moon in English) is a beautiful and elegant cat that I can see sometimes when I visit to my parents. She doesnt have an owner and she like to chase after pidgeons. Although it is just a game (because some neighbors give her some food every day) I always think she is a little hunter.

Luna es una bonita y elegante gata que veo algunas veces cuando visito a mis padres. No tiene dueño y le encanta perseguir a las palomas. Aunque es sólo como diversión (porque algunos vecinos le dan comida todo los días) siempre pienso que es una pequeña cazadora.

“...Sonaban los cencerros de las tropillas; cada cual se preparaba para subir a caballo, habiendo olvidado sus penas alrededor del fogón... Y en el oriente nubloso, la luz apenas rayando, iba el campo tapizando de claro oscuro verdor...”

The Amazon rainforest (Brazilian Portuguese: Floresta Amazônica or Amazônia; Spanish: Selva Amazónica or Amazonia), also known as Amazonia, or the Amazon jungle, is a moist broadleaf forest that covers most of the Amazon Basin of South America. This basin encompasses seven million square kilometers (1.7 billion acres), of which five and a half million square kilometers (1.4 billion acres) are covered by the rainforest. This region includes territory belonging to nine nations. The majority of the forest is contained within Brazil, with 60% of the rainforest, followed by Peru with 13%, and with minor amounts in Colombia, Venezuela, Ecuador, Bolivia, Guyana, Suriname, and French Guiana. States or departments in four nations bear the name Amazonas after it. The Amazon represents over half of the planet's remaining rainforests, and it comprises the largest and most species-rich tract of tropical rainforest in the world.

 

The Amazon rainforest was short-listed in 2008 as a candidate to one of the New7Wonders of Nature by the New Seven Wonders of the World Foundation. As of February 2009 the Amazon was ranking first in Group E, the category for forests, national parks and nature reserves.[1]

# There were an estimated ten million Indians living in the Amazonian Rainforest five centuries ago. Today there are less than 200,000.

 

# In Brazil alone, European colonists have destroyed more than 90 indigenous tribes since the 1900’s. With them have gone centuries of accumulated knowledge of the medicinal value of rainforest species. As their homelands continue to be destroyed by deforestation, rainforest peoples are also disappearing.

 

# Most medicine men and shamans remaining in the Rainforests today are 70 years old or more. Each time a rainforest medicine man dies, it is as if a library has burned down.

 

# When a medicine man dies without passing his arts on to the next generation, the tribe and the world loses thousands of years of irreplaceable knowledge about medicinal plants.

Yesterdays sunset show many were talking about....here around Brisbane.

Hours before I observed these lines in the sky and was hoping it would hold on to that for a few more hours. I was pretty excited to get out for this shot and on the way home I knew I got a few special shots. This was the 3rd spectacular sunset in the last few days here in sunny QLD

 

My Tripot was knee deep in the water and I got Richard VERY close to my lens. Good on ya Richard!

See the clouds adrift so far below

Ever changing as they come and go;

Makes me wonder why I'm up so high

When really I am down so low

 

Of all the wonders I was one allowed

I think that I would always choose a cloud,

Always bring my feelings right out loud,

Whether I'm ashamed or proud.

 

And on this airplane coming home to you,

Sometimes I think I've flown my whole life through,

My whole life through,

As I wing my way to you.

 

See the clouds, they're giving life below

In colors that the canvas cannot show;

Keeping secrets no one else could know,

For I'm the one who told them so.

 

Now and then I get up close to you,

Like to stay, but I'm just passing through,

So I'll have to say goodbye,

Until next time I fly.

Solo adesso noto con quanta dignità queste donne prese di sorpresa si sono disposte alla ripresa. La foto di gruppo era un modo di compensare il disturbo che recavo invadendo il loro privato quotidiano con le mie domande e fotografie.

La foto proviene da una serie di riprese fatte per un esame di architettura in un piccolo villaggio rurale di poche case tra San Gorgio e San Sebastiano (San Vito al Vesuvio)
