The 200th Anniversary of the Battle of Bladensburg and Monument Dedication. by Jay Baker at Bladensburg, MD.
But as surely as this day comes round we are in the presence of the dead. For one hour, twice a year at least--at the regimental dinner, where the ghosts sit at table more numerous than the living, and on this day when we decorate their graves--the dead come back and live with us. ~Oliver Wendell Holmes, Jr.

The priest giving milk to Kali after performance Charak puja festival at Lakkatura village, Sylhet, Bangladesh. On April 14 2010.
Alvaro Peña-Rojas is unique. He dresses extravagantly, his performances exude a quirky charm. He sings off-key, plays the piano with only eight fingers, wearing white gloves. His music is minimalist, his texts are sparse. Along with Joe Strummer he founded one of the first punk bands in London, and has lived in Konstanz since the 70s doing v"his thing" – with plenty of passion and without any concession to the mainstream.
Speciale dédicace à Galéo (from Rennes, Bretagne), qui se demande toujours si les normands (et spécialement les rouennais) ne sont pas fous ?
This week has been all about tiredness. The house has been ringing to the sound of mobiles, pagers and phones at all hours. To neighbours banging, to workmen up the road pretending they're doing something. I seem to have spent far too much time speaking to people back in the UK this week, worrying about money, about the flat I still co-own in Scotland, about friends with troubles, about my own. Time spent 'doing' when I should be sleeping.
If anyone, ever, tells you emigrating to the other side of the world is easy, kick them for me. It is about as big a test of determination and resolve as I can physically imagine anyone creating. Money literally pours from every hole you make, the job and photography contacts I was happily building vanish, your friends are as far away as they can be without coming back; I spent nearly five months without work. And every morning this week when I wake up begrudgingly and look in the mirror, my face tells me so.
The biggest test of doing 'this' isn't missing people, it's reminding yourself that it's the right thing when it's taken everything you have left.
But it is. It is the right thing.
This is a dedication to 1 of my most wonderful friends. We lost contact but he helped me through a very difficult period of my life n offered support in every way. All my friends at that time seemed God sent so i labeled each of them my angels.
Heres an entry on him n my other friends
