A proximité des gares Lille Europe et Lille Flandres, entre le parc Matisse et le quartier du Romarin, un jardin d’exception est né.
Le projet du Jardin des Géants résulte d’une volonté de transformer des parkings de surface en un lieu de promenade et de loisirs étonnant, ouvert à tous.
Le Jardin des Géants est d'une superficie de 2 ha. Il a été conçu par l'atelier Mutabilis Paysage et Urbanisme, l'architecte Duncan LEWIS et les ingénieurs DVVD.
Au cours de votre balade, vous pouvez découvrir aussi les sculptures de Quentin Garel et de l'artiste Stéphanie Buttier.
Le Jardin des Géants fait référence à l’histoire la métropole lilloise et de la région. Les Géants représentent des héros imaginaires, des personnages historiques ou même des animaux. Véritables symboles des cités, ils en sont les fondateurs et les protecteurs.
Le Jardin des Géants est certainement l’un des plus beaux jardins au nord de Paris, par sa luxuriance, sa beauté et son originalité.
45 000 végétaux de 300 espèces différentes composent ce jardin essentiellement planté d’essences horticoles : metasequoia, magnolia, arbre aux mouchoirs, bambous, plantes vivaces, bulbeuses, aquatiques ou encore grimpantes…
Near the Lille Europe and Lille Flandres stations, between Matisse Park and the Romarin district, an exceptional garden has been born.
The Jardin des Géants project is the result of a desire to transform surface car parks into an amazing place for walking and leisure, open to everyone.
The Jardin des Géants covers an area of 2 ha. It was designed by the Mutabilis Paysage et Urbanisme studio, the architect Duncan LEWIS and the DVVD engineers.
During your walk, you can also discover the sculptures of Quentin Garel and the artist Stéphanie Buttier.
The Jardin des Géants refers to the history of the Lille metropolis and the region. The Giants represent imaginary heroes, historical figures or even animals. True symbols of cities, they are their founders and protectors.
The Jardin des Géants is certainly one of the most beautiful gardens north of Paris, due to its luxuriance, beauty and originality.
45,000 plants of 300 different species make up this garden mainly planted with horticultural species: metasequoia, magnolia, handkerchief tree, bamboo, perennial, bulbous, aquatic or even climbing plants...
Me miran, las miro, nos miramos...
Golosa lo soy un poco y chocolatera... no digamos... Me rechifla tomar el té o cafelito con "butti-butti" (expresión coloquial de mi amatxo, que viene del euskera "busti", mojar... )
Lo nuestro es un amor intenso y dulce, de esos que se quedan ( ya lo creo) y arraigan,... que conlleva muchas satisfacciones y algún que otro disgustillo, especialmente, ahora, cuando una ve que el veranillo se acerca y ha aparecido una nueva lorcita :((
TANGO
Non c’è possibilità di errore nel tango, Dana, non è come la vita: è più semplice! Per questo il tango è così bello: commetti uno sbaglio, ma non è mai irreparabile, seguiti a ballare! Perché non ti butti? Vuoi provare?
There is no possibility of error in the tango, Dana, it's not like life: it's simpler! For this reason, the tango is so beautiful: I make a mistake, but it is never irreparable, followed by dancing! Why do not you bother? Do you want to try?

Missing faces, veiled ones, obscure looks: statues and mannequins populate Second Life with their mysterious mood. Sometimes they are creepy, sometimes they are gentle, always they are silent.
They look at us, we look at them, but what they tell eachother is a mystery to us.
Melusina wants to show how a collection of photos made around SL together can form a lifeless population, which makes us wonder about human feelings and thoughts.
Opening party: Wednesday 18 October.
Time: 21.00 Amsterdam time (=12 pm SLT)

Tu mi fai girar, tu mi fai girar
Come fossi una bambola
Poi mi butti giù, poi mi butti giù
Come fossi una bambola
Non ti accorgi quando piango
Quando sono triste e stanca, tu pensi solo per te
No ragazzo, no, no ragazzo, no
English translation:
You make me twirl
You make me twirl
As if I were a doll
Then, you throw me down
Then, you throw me down
As if I were a doll
You don’t notice when I cry
When I’m sad and tired
You think only about yourself
No, boy, no
No, boy, no

Azalai il tempo delle carovane
In nessun caso la mente rimane così affascinata come dalle carovane di cammelli che attraversano il Sahara. Qualcosa di profondo viene stimolato.La nostalgia del viaggio, del movimento e della migrazione affiorano come istinti ancestrali.Forse riemerge l'origine nomade dell'uomo.L'idea che l'uomo sia un animale sedentario è solo un'aberrazione moderna, pensava Bruce Chatwin:"La vera casa dell'uomo non è una casa, è la strada...e la vita stessa è un viaggio da fare a piedi."
Unirsi ad una carovana del sale, sapendo di avere di fronte a sè molte centinaia di chilometri da percorrere prevalentemente a piedi, è una scelta che si può compiere solo dimenticando il buon senso quotidiano. D'altra parte, che buon senso c'è nell'immobilità fisica e mentale?
Nel mese di ottobre del 1991, Giosuè Bolis e Miriam Butti sono in Niger, dove si uniscono a una carovana di tuareg diretta alle saline di Bilma.
Per trenta giorni e milleduecento chilometri, sedici uomini e centotrenta cammelli attraversano il Ténéré, una delle zone desertiche più ostili del pianeta.

Azalai the time of caravans
In no case is the mind as fascinated as by the camel caravans crossing the Sahara. Something profound is stimulated. The nostalgia for travel, movement and migration emerge as ancestral instincts. Perhaps the nomadic origin of man re-emerges. The idea that man is a sedentary animal is only a modern aberration, thought Bruce Chatwin: "The true home of man is not a house, it is the road... and life itself is a journey to be made on foot." Joining a salt caravan, knowing that you have hundreds of kilometers ahead of you to travel mainly on foot, is a choice that can only be made by forgetting everyday common sense. On the other hand, what common sense is there in physical and mental immobility?
In October 1991, Giosuè Bolis and Miriam Butti are in Niger, where they join a Tuareg caravan headed to the salt flats of Bilma.
For thirty days and twelve hundred kilometers, sixteen men and one hundred and thirty camels cross the Ténéré, one of the most hostile desert areas on the planet.

#1224 Sam Butti
Today's story and sketch by me, you see Deputy Sam Butti who, while investigating in this deep cavern, deep in the bowels of the Planet Budahunga, where many numbers of the "MCPPOTG" Man Cave Posse Protectors Of The Galaxy have somehow become Citizens. By either volunteering to enter the mysterious Stargate, which appeared under the Oceanside Pier many months ago, in a desperat search for Deputies JB, the Galaxies Greatest Tracker and Bounty Hunter, and Rescue Randy, the only living tissue crash test dummy in this or any Dimension or Galaxy, after they were kidnapped while they were having the Tuesday Lunch Special at the "FTSATEOTG" Fish Taco Shop At The End Of The Galaxy. And now many others are just arriving through Worm Hole Portals, that mysteriously open, and spit out spacecraft with pedestrians, astronauts, and mostly Man Cave Posse Deputies, like Deputy Tobi Bentknob, who was just spit out through the cavern wall with a big thundering noise, and a smell of Burning White Sage, which terrified Sam, who is known to be fearless, he let out a Seeker Caw Caw, (the sound a Seeker makes when very scared, or after an intimate encounter with a female Seeker), which will have to be a story for time, as will where Deputy Tobi was, when he lost control of his intergalactic glider, and was sent here to Budahunga, Until next Sunday ta ta the Rod Blog.
Provaci, e' la stessa cosa di un tuffo da un alto scoglio.
Ti affacci, guardi in basso, torni suoi tuoi passi, pensi ma chi me lo fa fare, ti fermi, ti metti in poisizione, guardi tutti che aspettano te, scuoti la testa, chiudi gli occhi, ti metti in posizione, allunghi le braccia, segno della croce, e ti butti......URLANDOOOOOOOOO
Try it, is the same as a plunge from a high cliff.
Did overlooking, look down, you go back its your steps, you think about me but it does make you stop, you put in position, look at all expect that you, shake your head, close your eyes, you put in place, lengthen arms, a sign of the cross, and you butti. SCREAMINGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG
انا لعينك غديت من الهوى سيره
خذني على كيف ماتبغي وانا جيتك

Sapore di sale
Gino Paoli
www.youtube.com/watch?v=HwwclipeKGc
Sapore di sale, sapore di mare
che hai sulla pelle, che hai sulle labbra
quando esci dall'acqua e ti vieni a sdraiare
vicino a me, vicino a me.
Sapore di sale, sapore di mare
un gusto un po' amaro di cose perdute
di cose lasciate lontano da noi
dove il mondo è diverso, diverso da qui.
Il tempo è nei giorni che passano pigri
e lasciano in bocca il gusto del sale
ti butti nell'acqua e mi lasci a guardarti
e rimango da solo nella sabbia e nel sol.
Poi torni vicino e ti lasci cadere
così nella sabbia e nelle mie braccia
e mentre ti bacio sapore di sale
sapore di mare, sapore di te.
The song is about a guy on a beach and he sees a girl swimming and pictures her laying next to him making out w/ him and he says the taste of sea salt brings back memories of kissing the girl's lips which had salt on them from the water.
Ah, tu pensavi che anch’io fossi una
che si possa dimenticare
e che si butti, pregando e piangendo,
sotto gli zoccoli di un baio.
O prenda a chiedere alle maghe
radichette nell’acqua incantata,
e ti invii il regalo terribile
di un fazzoletto odoroso e fatale.
Sii maledetto. Non sfiorerò con gemiti
o sguardi l’anima dannata,
ma ti giuro sul paradiso,
sull’icona miracolosa
e sull’ebbrezza delle nostre notti ardenti:
mai più tornerò da te.
Anna Achmatova - 1921
А, ты думал - я тоже такая,
Что можно забыть меня,
И что брошусь, моля и рыдая,
Под копыта гнедого коня.
Или стану просить у знахарок
В наговорной воде корешок
И пришлю тебе страшный подарок -
Мой заветный душистый платок.
Будь же проклят. Ни стоном, ни взглядом
Окаянной души не коснусь,
Но клянусь тебе ангельским садом,
Чудотворной иконой клянусь
И ночей наших пламенных чадом -
Я к тебе никогда не вернусь.

Dubai (/duːˈbaɪ/ doo-by; Arabic: دبيّ Dubayy, IPA: [dʊˈbæj]) is a city in the United Arab Emirates, located within the emirate of the same name. The emirate of Dubai is located on the southeast coast of the Persian Gulf and is one of the seven emirates that make up the country. It has the largest population in the UAE (2,106,177) and the second-largest land territory (4,114 km2) after the capital, Abu Dhabi.[4] Abu Dhabi and Dubai are the only two emirates to have veto power over critical matters of national importance in the country's legislature.[5] The city of Dubai is located on the emirate's northern coastline and heads up the Dubai-Sharjah-Ajman metropolitan area. Dubai is often misperceived as a country or city-state and, in some cases, the UAE as a whole has been described as 'Dubai'.[6]
The earliest mention of Dubai is in 1095 AD, and the earliest recorded settlement in the region dates from 1799. Dubai was formally established on the 9th June 1833 by Sheikh Maktoum bin Butti Al-Maktoum when he persuaded around 800 members of his tribe of the Bani Yas, living in what was then the Second Saudi State to follow him to the Dubai Creek by the Abu Falasa clan of the Bani Yas. It remained under the tribe's control when the United Kingdom agreed to protect the Sheikhdom in 1892[7] and joined the nascent United Arab Emirates upon independence in 1971 as the country's second emirate. Its strategic geographic location made the town an important trading hub and by the beginning of the 20th century, Dubai was already an important regional port.
Today, Dubai has emerged as a cosmopolitan metropolis that has grown steadily to become a global city and a business and cultural hub of the Middle East and the Persian Gulf region.[8] It is also a major transport hub for passengers and cargo. Although Dubai's economy was historically built on the oil industry, the emirate's Western-style model of business drives its economy with the main revenues now coming from tourism, aviation, real estate, and financial services.[9][10][11] Dubai has recently attracted world attention through many innovative large construction projects and sports events. The city has become symbolic for its skyscrapers and high-rise buildings, such as the world's tallest Burj Khalifa, in addition to ambitious development projects including man-made islands, hotels, and some of the largest shopping malls in the region and the world. This increased attention has also highlighted labor and human rights issues concerning the city's largely South Asian workforce.[12] Dubai's property market experienced a major deterioration in 2008–2009 following the financial crisis of 2007-2008,[13] but is making a gradual recovery with help coming from neighboring emirates.[14]
As of 2012, Dubai is the 22nd most expensive city in the world, and the most expensive city in the Middle East.[15][16] Dubai has also been rated as one of the best places to live in the Middle East, including by American global consulting firm Mercer who rated the city as the best place to live in the Middle East in 2011.
As it happened I was the only visitor to the truly fabulous, monumental Central Cemetery of Montevideo. It's well worth a look or two to get an impression of how Uruguay remembers her well-known people.
I didn't expect to recognise anything, but there he was. A miner - Il Minatore - whom I've seen in a cemetery in Düsseldorf. He was sculpted by Enrico Butti (1847-1932) of Milan, Italy, between 1887 and 1888 in at least two versions. There's the one in Germany which is sombre but again not more sombre than you'd expect for a burial ground; and there's this utterly dejected miner; just look at his sagging shoulders, his sad drawn face. I sat watching a while, and tears almost welled up.
Il Minatore here graces the family tomb of Juan and Daniel Nicola. Whom they were I don't know, and I haven't (yet) been able to find out. Daniel, presumably Juan's son, has a dedicatory plaque: "A Daniel Nicola. Amigo inolvidable. Sus compañeros de A.T.M.O.". And I don't even know for what that abbreviation stands. I suppose this is fitting, death is a mystery by all accounts.

Scheich Butti bin Maktoum bin Juma al-Maktoum, ein hochrangiges Mitglied der königlichen Familie von Dubai, ist mit seinen preisgekrönten Jagdfalken in Dubai, Vereinigte Arabische Emirate, zu sehen. Der Scheich war einer der ersten Falkner in den Vereinigten Arabischen Emiraten, der mit in Gefangenschaft gezüchteten Vögeln trainierte und jagte.
Die jahrtausendealte Falknerei erlebt gerade durch die Anstrengungen in der arabischen Welt ein internationales Wiederaufleben. Die UNESCO erkennt die Falknerei als immaterielles Kulturerbe der Menschheit (ICH) an, einen Status, den kein anderer Jagdsport genießt. In Gefangenschaft gezüchtete Falken haben dazu beigetragen, den Handel mit gefangenen Wildvögeln, einschließlich einiger Arten, die als gefährdet eingestuft sind, zu verringern. Einige wild lebende Falken sind jedoch weiterhin durch Fänge und andere anthropogene Faktoren gefährdet, wie z. B. Stromschläge an schlecht ausgelegten Stromleitungen, Zerstörung des Lebensraums und Agrochemikalien. Auch wenn die Jagd durch die Zucht von Vögeln wie Houbara-Trappen nachhaltiger geworden ist, hat die britische Ornithologen-Union berichtet, dass die Population der wilden Houbara weiter zurückgegangen ist.

Personaje histórico ( Pintor)
Escultor: Enrico Butti ( 1900)
Isabella Airoldi Casati, the wife of Baron Gianluigi Casati, had died aged twenty-four, in 1889. On its exhibition in 1891, the bronze monument to Isabella instantly enjoyed great acclaim. The underlying concept is one of the first to express 'sweet death', encompassed in a beautiful woman who passes serenely from sleep to the life beyond.
