"Nobody loses all the time."Warren Oates is one of my favorite actors. He was the antithesis of the handsome Hollywood actor. Oates did some amazing work with the director Sam Peckinpah. He was part of the remarkable ensemble cast that Peckinpah assembled for "The Wild Bunch." Imagine a director today luring these remarkable actors to work on a film that had little hope of financial reward: Ernest Borgnine, William Holden, Robert Ryan, Warren Oates, Ben Johnson, Edmund O'Brien, Strother Martin, Emilio Fernandez, L. Q. Jones and many other great character actors of the period. It is one of the greatest Westerns ever filmed, set in the final days that peripatetic bandits would exist on the planet.Warren Oates starred in the remarkable and ultra-violent "Bring Me The Head Of Alfredo Garcia." A case could be made that Oates was just a supporting actor to the real star of that film, the disembodied head of the title character Alfredo Garcia. The decapitated noggin of Garcia spent most of his star turn in a pillow case plagued by a horde of tenacious flies and their buzzing symphony. Gig Young played one of the gangsters hired to locate Alfredo Garcia, a local Lothario with the misfortune to impregnate the underage daughter of a cruel, wealthy and ruthless rancher. Through most of the film, Gig Young is impeccably clad in a natty suit that defied the coarse landscape. He wore a smile as evil as any in the history of cinema. His frightening smile had no peer until Ian McShane played the sexually indiscriminate criminal mastermind in "Sexy Beast." McShane is in the role of Teddy Bass, described as "Mr. Black Magic Himself." His smile is a greeting from Satan himself.In one disturbing scene in "...Alfredo Garcia" (disturbing scenes would take much more concentration than I could muster to count them) El Jefe orders his henchmen to break his own daughter's arm to force the name of her lover from the recalcitrant teenager.Kris Kristofferson, the former Rhodes Scholar, has a brief role in the film of a rapist biker.Oates as Bennie plays the abject loser on a quest for the unholy grail, the vessel being Garcia's head. To complicate matters, Bennie finds out that his own girlfriend fucked Garcia in recent days. The hunt escalates from mercenary to an act of personal revenge.In an early scene, Bennie is posted up in a seedy bar/brothel in Mexico, employed as a piano player and vocalist of limited skill. His version of Guantanamera is one of the saddest and most pathetic renditions of the song in the history of recorded music.Warren Oates was an original, a free spirit in Hollywood before they were driven out of the film industry by the insatiable greed of late-Capitalism. The social anarchists, free thinkers, hedonists and libertines of independent cinema took either vapid, low paying fare or no work at all. Left to drift into the purgatory of B movies or condemned to years of idle debauchery on a limited budget, the best of them foundered until producers and directors too young to have axes to grind and with no personal experience or vendettas with the breed found the courage to pull their heads out of their asses. Some of the more adventurous would offer the untouchables roles of substance again, despite the warnings of their elders. America's greatest directors such as John Cassavetes would mortgage his home to raise money and take acting parts of disinterest to him (such as Rosemary's Baby) to finance his films. This independence freed him from dependence on the bankrolls of the small minds of the neo-Philistines and dilettantes running the Hollywood racket. His highly personal style of making movies was little affected by producers that were only interested in making money. His actors and supporting crews worked with Cassavetes as a labor of love. Fortunately he had the talented and lovely Gena Rowlands bound in matrimony so his female roles were played by one of the best in the business. Cassavettes ended up cheating the conservative materialistic swing to the right in Hollywood by his financial independence and his fatal cirrhosis. The mighty Sam Peckinpah was a giant talent but constantly plagued by dipsomania. He had a reputation for being difficult to work with and a penchant for violence that extended into his interpersonal relationships. Peckinpah would eventually turn on everyone he was ever close to but he kept Warren Oates employed when Monte Hellman couldn't. An interviewer once asked Peckinpah why he made such violent films. He answered, "I'm a good whore. I go where I'm kicked." The reality of his situation was that no one in Hollywood trusted this loose cannon with a viable script. He would take 3rd rate scenarios and rewrite them to make them palatable to himself. Despite the rewrite, producers would insist on sensational violence to appeal to the baser sensibilities of the audience. He preferred working to not, since long periods between films gave him too much time to sacrifice himself to his predilection to excess. Peckinpah had little choice but to produce gory fair or he would die not trying. Warren Oates and Sam Peckinpah were authentic and human. These two qualities are almost extinct in Hollywood movies today.As far as their aberrant behavior, may the bridges they burn light the way.

The Arboretum has an interactive map on their web site. This map is found at the Arborway Gate.

 

Pasting from Wikipedia: Arnold Arboretum:

The Arnold Arboretum of Harvard University is an arboretum located in the Jamaica Plain and Roslindale sections of Boston, Massachusetts. It was designed by Frederick Law Olmsted and is the second largest "link" in the Emerald Necklace.

 

History

 

The Arboretum was founded in 1872 when the President and Fellows of Harvard College became trustees of a portion of the estate of James Arnold (1781–1868).

 

In 1842, Benjamin Bussey (1757–1842), a prosperous Boston merchant and scientific farmer, donated his country estate Woodland Hill and a part of his fortune to Harvard University "for instruction in agriculture, horticulture, and related subjects". Bussey had inherited land from fellow patriot Eleazer Weld in 1800 and further enlarged his large estate between 1806 and 1837 by acquiring and consolidating various farms that had been established as early as the seventeenth century. Harvard used this land for the creation of the Bussey Institute, which was dedicated to agricultural experimentation. The first Bussey Institute building was completed in 1871 and served as headquarters for an undergraduate school of agriculture.

 

Sixteen years after Bussey's death, James Arnold, a New Bedford, Massachusetts whaling merchant, specified that a portion of his estate was to be used for "...the promotion of Agricultural, or Horticultural improvements". In 1872, when the trustees of the will of James Arnold transferred his estate to Harvard University, Arnold’s gift was combined with 120 acres (0.49 km2) of the former Bussey estate to create the Arnold Arboretum. In the deed of trust between the Arnold trustees and the College, income from Arnold’s legacy was to be used for establishing, developing and maintaining an arboretum to be known as the Arnold Arboretum which "shall contain, as far as practicable, all the trees [and] shrubs ... either indigenous or exotic, which can be raised in the open air of West Roxbury". The historical mission of the Arnold Arboretum is to increase knowledge of woody plants through research and to disseminate this knowledge through education.

 

Charles Sprague Sargent was appointed director and Arnold Professor of Botany shortly after the establishment of the institution in 1872.[2] Together with landscape architect Frederick Law Olmsted he developed the road and pathway system and delineated the collection areas by family and genus, following the then current and widely accepted classification system of Bentham and Hooker. The Hunnewell building was designed by architect Alexander Wadsworth Longfellow, Jr. in 1892 and constructed with funds donated by H. H. Hunnewell in 1903. From 1946 to 1950 the landscape architect Beatrix Farrand was the landscape design consultant for the Arboretum. Her early training in the 1890s included time with Charles Sprague Sargent and chief propagator and superintendent Jackson Thornton Johnson.[3] Today the Arboretum occupies 265 acres (107 hectares) of land divided between four parcels, viz. the main Arboretum and the Peters Hill, Weld-Walter and South Street tracts. The collections, however, are located primarily in the main Arboretum and on the Peters Hill tract. The Arboretum remains one of the finest examples of a landscape designed by Frederick Law Olmsted and it is a Frederick Law Olmsted National Historic Site) and a National Historic Landmark.

 

Robert E. Cook is the seventh and current Director of the Arnold Arboretum. He is also the Director of the Harvard University Herbaria located in Cambridge, Massachusetts.

 

Status

 

The Arboretum is privately endowed as a department of Harvard University. The land, however, was deeded to the City of Boston in 1882 and incorporated into the so-called "Emerald Necklace". Under the agreement with the City, Harvard University was given a thousand-year lease on the property, and the University, as trustee, is directly responsible for the development, maintenance, and operation of the Arboretum; the City retains responsibility for water fountains, benches, roads, boundaries, and policing. The annual operating budget of $7,350,644 (fiscal year 2003) is largely derived from endowment, which is also managed by the University, and all Arboretum staff are University employees. Other income is obtained through granting agencies and contributors.

 

Location

 

The main Arborway gate is located on Route 203 a few hundred yards south of its junction with the Jamaicaway. Public transportation to the Arboretum is available on the MBTA Orange Line to its terminus at Forest Hills Station and by bus (#39) to the Monument in Jamaica Plain. The Arboretum is within easy walking distance from either of these points.

 

Hours

 

The grounds are open free of charge to the public from sunrise to sunset 365 days of the year. The Visitor's Center in the Hunnewell Building, 125 Arborway, is open Monday through Friday 9 a.m.–4 p.m.; Saturdays 10 a.m.–4 p.m.; Sundays 12 p.m.–4 PM. The Visitor’s Center is closed on holidays. The Library, located in the Hunnewell Building, is open Monday through Saturday, 10 a.m.–4 p.m.. The Library is closed on Sundays and holidays. Stacks are closed and the collection does not circulate.

 

Area

 

Two hundred and sixty-five acres (107 hectares) in the Jamaica Plain and Roslindale sections of Boston, Massachusetts, located at 42°19′N 71°5′W / 42.317°N 71.083°W / 42.317; -71.083, with altitudes ranging from 46 feet (15 m) in the meadow across the drive from the Hunnewell Building to 240 feet (79 m) at the top of Peters Hill.

 

Climate

 

Average yearly rainfall is 43.63 inches (1,102 mm); average snowfall, 40.2 inches (102 centimeters). Monthly mean temperature is 51.5 °F (10.8 °C); July's mean temperature is 73.5 °F (23 °C); January's is 29.6 °F (-1.3 °C). The Arboretum is located in USDA hardiness zone 6 (0 to −10 °F, −18 to −23 °C).

 

Collections (as of September 14, 2007)

 

At present, the living collections include 15,441 individual plants (including nursery holdings) belonging to 10,216 accessions representing 4,099 taxa; with particular emphasis on the ligneous species of North America and eastern Asia. Historic collections include the plant introductions from eastern Asia made by Charles Sprague Sargent, Ernest Henry Wilson, William Purdom, Joseph Hers, and Joseph Rock. Recent introductions from Asia have resulted from the 1977 Arnold Arboretum Expedition to Japan and Korea, the 1980 Sino-American Botanical Expedition to western Hubei Province, and more recent expeditions to China and Taiwan.

 

Comprehensive collections are maintained and augmented for most genera, and genera that have received particular emphasis include: Acer, Fagus, Carya, Forsythia, Taxodium, Pinus, Metasequoia, Lonicera, Magnolia, Malus, Quercus, Rhododendron, Syringa, Paulownia, Albizia, Ilex, Gleditsia and Tsuga. Other comprehensive collections include the Bradley Collection of Rosaceous Plants, the collection of conifers and dwarf conifers, and the Larz Anderson Bonsai Collection. Approximately 500 accessions are processed annually.

 

Collections policy

 

The mission of the Arnold Arboretum is to increase our knowledge of the evolution and biology of woody plants. Historically, this research has investigated the global distribution and evolutionary history of trees, shrubs and vines, with particular emphasis on the disjunct species of East Asia and North America. Today this work continues through molecular studies of the evolution and biogeography of the floras of temperate Asia, North America and Europe.

 

Research activities include molecular studies of gene evolution, investigations of plant-water relations, and the monitoring of plant phenology, vegetation succession, nutrient cycling and other factors that inform studies of environmental change. Applied work in horticulture uses the collections for studies in plant propagation, plant introduction, and environmental management. This diversity of scientific investigation is founded in a continuing commitment to acquire, grow, and document the recognized species and infraspecific taxa of ligneous plants of the Northern Hemisphere that are able to withstand the climate of the Arboretum’s 265-acre (1.07 km2) Jamaica Plain/Roslindale site.

 

As a primary resource for research in plant biology, the Arboretum’s living collections are actively developed, curated, and managed to support scientific investigation and study. To this end, acquisition policies place priority on obtaining plants that are genetically representative of documented wild populations. For each taxon, the Arnold Arboretum aspires to grow multiple accessions of known wild provenance in order to represent significant variation that may occur across the geographic range of the species. Accessions of garden or cultivated provenance are also acquired as governed by the collections policies herein.

 

For all specimens, full documentation of both provenance and history within the collection is a critical priority. Curatorial procedures provide for complete and accurate records for each accession, and document original provenance, locations in the collections, and changes in botanical identity. Herbarium specimens, DNA materials, and digital images are gathered for the collection and maintained in Arboretum data systems and the herbarium at the Roslindale site.

 

Research

 

Research on plant pathology and integrated pest management for maintenance of the living collections is constantly ongoing. Herbarium-based research focuses on the systematics and biodiversity of both temperate and tropical Asian forests, as well as the ecology and potential for sustainable use of their resources. The Arboretum's education programs offer school groups and the general public a wide range of lectures, courses, and walks focusing on the ecology and cultivation of plants. Its quarterly magazine, Arnoldia, provides in-depth information on horticulture, botany, and garden history. Current Research Initiatives

 

Plant Records

 

Plant records are maintained on a computerized database, BG-BASE 6.8 (BG-Base Inc.), which was initiated in 1985 at the request of the Arnold Arboretum and the Threatened Plants Unit (TPU) of the World Conservation Monitoring Centre (WCMC). A computerized mapping program (based on AutoCAD (Autodesk)) is linked to BG-BASE, and each accession is recorded on a series of maps at a scale of 1-inch (25 mm) to 20 feet (1:240) or 1-inch (25 mm) to 10 feet (1:120). A computer-driven embosser generates records labels. All accessioned plants in the collections are labeled with accession number, botanical name, and cultivar name (when appropriate), source information, common name, and map location. Trunk and/or display labels are also hung on many accessions and include botanical and common names and nativity. Stake labels are used to identify plants located in the Leventritt Garden and Chinese Path.

 

Grounds Maintenance

 

The grounds staff consists of the superintendent and assistant superintendent, three arborists, and ten horticultural technologists. A service garage is adjacent to the Hunnewell Building, where offices and locker rooms are located. During the summer months ten horticultural interns supplement the grounds staff. A wide array of vehicles and modern equipment, including an aerial lift truck and a John Deere backhoe and front loader, are used in grounds maintenance. Permanent grounds staff, excluding the superintendents, are members of AFL/CIO Local 615, Service Employees International Union (SEIU).

 

Nursery and Greenhouse Facilities

 

The Dana Greenhouses, located at 1050 Centre Street (with a mailing address of 125 Arborway), were completed in 1962. They comprise four service greenhouses totaling 3,744 square feet (348 m²), the headhouse with offices, cold rooms, storage areas, and a classroom. Staffing at the greenhouse includes the manager of greenhouses and nurseries, the plant propagator, two assistants, and, during the summer months, two horticultural interns. Adjacent to the greenhouse is a shade house of 3,150 square feet (293 m²), a 12,600 cubic foot (357 m³) cold storage facility, and three irrigated, inground nurseries totaling approximately one and one-half acres (6,000 m²). Also located in the greenhouse complex is the bonsai pavilion, where the Larz Anderson Bonsai Collection is displayed from the middle of April to the end of October. During the winter months the bonsai are held in the cold storage unit at temperatures slightly above freezing.

 

Isabella Welles Hunnewell Internship Program

 

The living collections department of the Arnold Arboretum offers a paid summer internship program [2] that combines hands-on training in horticulture with educational courses. Intern trainees will be accepted for 12- to 24-week appointments. Ten interns will work with the grounds maintenance department and two in the Dana Greenhouses.

 

As part of the training program, interns participate in mandatory instructional sessions and field trips in order to develop a broader sense of the Arboretum’s horticultural practices as well as those of other institutions. Sessions and field trips are led by Arnold staff members and embrace an open question and answer format encouraging all to participate. Interns often bring experience and knowledge that everyone, including staff, benefits from. It is a competitive-free learning environment.

 

Horticultural Apprenticeship

 

The Arboretum created the horticultural apprenticeship program in 1997 to provide hands-on experience in all aspects of the development, curation, and maintenance of the Arboretum's living collections to individuals interested in pursuing a career in an arboretum or botanical garden.

 

The Living Collections department of the Arnold Arboretum offers a summer internship program[4] that combines practical hands-on training in horticulture with educational courses. Fourteen Interns/Horticultural Trainees are accepted for twelve to twenty-four week appointments. Interns receive the majority of their training in one of three departments: Grounds Maintenance, Nursery and Greenhouse, or Plant Records.

 

Lilac Sunday

 

The second Sunday in May every year is "Lilac Sunday". This is the only day of the year that picnicing is allowed. In 2008, on the 100th anniversary of Lilac Sunday, the Arboretum website touted:

 

Of the thousands of flowering plants in the Arboretum, only one, the lilac, is singled out each year for a daylong celebration. On Lilac Sunday, garden enthusiasts from all over New England gather at the Arboretum to picnic, watch Morris dancing, and tour the lilac collection. On the day of the event, which takes place rain or shine, the Arboretum is open as usual from dawn to dusk.[5]

 

Associated Collections

 

The Arboretum's herbarium in Jamaica Plain holds specimens of cultivated plants that relate to the living collections (ca. 160,000). The Jamaica Plain herbarium, horticultural library, archives, and photographs are maintained in the Hunnewell building at 125 Arborway; however, the main portions of the herbarium and library collections are housed in Cambridge on the campus of Harvard University, at 22 Divinity Avenue.

 

Publications

 

The inventory of living collections is updated periodically and made available to sister botanical gardens and arboreta on request; it is also available on the Arboretum’s website (searchable inventory). Arnoldia, the quarterly magazine of the Arnold Arboretum, frequently publishes articles relating to the living collections. A Reunion of Trees[6] by Stephen A. Spongberg (curator emeritus) recounts the history of the introduction of many of the exotic species included in the Arobretum’s collections. New England Natives[7] written by horticultural research archivist Sheila Connor describes many of the trees and shrubs of the New England flora and the ways New Englanders have used them since prehistoric times. Science in the Pleasure Ground[8] by Ida Hay (former curatorial associate) constitutes an institutional biography of the Arboretum.

 

Institutional Collaborations

 

The Arboretum maintains an institutional membership in the American Public Garden Association (APGA) and the International Association of Botanical Gardens and Arboreta. Additionally, members of the staff are associated with many national and international botanical and horticultural organizations. The Arboretum is also a cooperating institution with the Center for Plant Conservation (CPC), and as an active member of the North American Plant Collections Consortium (NAPCC), it is committed to broadening and maintaining its holdings of: Acer, Carya, Fagus, Stewartia, Syringa, and Tsuga for the purposes of plant conservation, evaluation, and research. The Arboretum is also a member of the North American China Plant Exploration Consortium (NACPEC).

Есть ли у нас истинная вера в Господа?

Что такое истинная вера на самом деле

Как сформировать истинную веру в Бога

От каждого из нас, христиан, Бог прежде всего требует обладания подлинной верой. В Библии описано множество примеров людей, которые благодаря своей вере смогли увидеть чудные дела Божьи и получить Его благословение. У Моисея былавера в Бога и посредством Божьего водительства он смог преодолеть множество препон и ограничений Фараона, с успехом возглавив израильтян в их исходе из Египта. Авраам имел веру в Бога и был готов принести в жертву Богу своего единственного сына Исаака, и в конечном итоге Бог благословил его, позволив его потомкам размножиться и стать великими народами. У Иова была вера в Бога, и во время двух испытаний он сумел остаться твердым в свидетельстве о Боге; Бог благословил Его более, нежели прежде, и явился ему и говорил с ним из бури. Женщина Хананеянка в Евангелии от Матфея имела веру в Господа Иисуса, веря, что Он может изгнать злого духа из ее дочери; она обратилась к Господу Иисусу с просьбой, и недуг ее дочери была излечен. Нам, как христианам, крайне важно понимать истину относительно того, что такое истинная вера, что, не важно с какими трудностями мы сталкиваемся в нашей жизни — с провалами в бизнесе, жизненными неудачами, несчастьями в семье — мы можем полагаться на нашу веру и неотступно следовать за Богом, громогласно свидетельствуя о Нем и в конечном итоге обретая Его одобрение.

 

Есть ли у нас истинная вера в Господа?

Могут найтись некоторые братья и сестры, которые, услышав дискуссию о вере, с уверенностью заявят, что у них точно есть вера. «Я верю в Бога на 100%. Я всегда признаю Бога, этим подтверждается, что я верующий». «Я верю, что Господь Иисус есть наш Спаситель, и что Он был распят, чтобы искупить нас от наших грехов. Пока мы молимся и исповедуемся пред Господом, Он всегда простит нам наши грехи. Разве это не вера в Господа?» «Я был верующим все эти годы; Чтобы посвятить всего себя и свой труд Господу, я отказался от карьеры, семьи и работы. Я повсюду основывал церкви и много страдал, никогда не жалуясь. Это все проявления веры в Бога». Несомненно, мы верим в существование Бога, и это факт, что мы с энтузиазмом работаем и полностью посвящаем себя Господу, что мы страдаем и дорого расплачиваемся за Него. Но значит ли это, что у нас есть истинная вера в Бога? Данный вопрос касается всех нас, братьев и сестер, которые искренне верят в Господа и жаждут истины, исследуя и проводя беседы.

 

Возьмем для примера меня. С тех пор, как я стала христианкой, я всегда активно участвовала в собраниях, делилась благой вестью с другими и предлагала поддержку братьям и сестрам, испытывающим слабость в вере. Никакие трудности не могли помешать мне заниматься этим. Я более чем готова оставить земные блага, чтобы с энтузиазмом служить Господу, поэтому я считаю себя той, которая любит Господа, предана Ему и имеет веру в Него. Однако, когда я и члены моей семьи заболели, и наше состояние не улучшилось даже после того, как я некоторое время молилась, я впала в уныние и разочаровалась в Боге. Я даже пожаловалась Ему, что он не защищает меня и мою семью. То, что было открыто суровой истиной, заставило меня понять, что мне совершенно не хватает подлинной веры, и что моя вера основывалась только на фундаменте семейной гармонии и свободы от физических болезней или бедствий. Тем не менее, мой истинный духовный рост был открыт, как только произошло что-то нежелательное. Только тогда я действительно увидела, что моя вера в Бога была настолько ничтожна, что вызывала жалость — это в самом деле не то, чем стоит хвастаться. Глядя на братьев и сестер вокруг меня, я видела, что большинство из них были такими же. Некоторые, чтобы не пострадали их личные интересы, вообще перестают посещать церковные служения, когда они вступают в конфликт с их графиком домашних дел или работы. Другие могут молиться Господу и просить Его о выходе, когда они впервые зашли в тупик в попытках найти работу или в других аспектах, но если это по-прежнему остается нерешенной проблемой, у них растет недовольство Господом, и они могут даже впасть в уныние и разочароваться. Они начинают полагаться на друзей из своего окружения, которые выглядят влиятельными и авторитетными, или могут действовать, руководствуясь своими собственными соображениями. Есть также братья и сестры, которые, получив Господни благословения, с энтузиазмом участвуют во всех аспектах церковной работы, но когда у них дома происходит что-то ужасное, или же они сталкиваются с неудачами в бизнесе, они начинают жить, не понимая Господа и сетуя на Него, а то и вовсе отходят от Него.

Amara's Journal

 

Editor's note: The panther translations are in italics and were not visible to those observing this fight.

 

What started it

Amara stood up, storming off to the edge of the bed. Here she was feeling bad for herself and Rico just acted like nothing had happened. "I'm not apologizing for giving an ungrateful bitch like you a vaccine to save your life…but don't expect treatment from the medics you're so fucking convinced are useless!" She started for the stairs. "Next time your dumbass decides to get deliberately infected, do the family a favor and stay away from the Den!"

 

Tanner 's ears twitched at this point, frowning as he looked over to Rico, feeling Amara's emotions still, sadness and maybe just a little anger. He shook his head at this point before letting out, "what the fuck did you do!" he lets out angrily as he tries to get himself up from the wall. His own mix up emotions weren't helping. He was volitile right now and Amara's emotions weren't helping in the least. He narrows his eyes a bit before limping over towards the other.

 

Rico didnt pay anymind to her. He didnt think the medics in general were useless. Sure he was mad she took forever but this could have been avoided if she didnt threaten him and then shock him 5 seconds after being shocked. He heard tanner and sighed "I asked her not to talk to me.....if she wants to shock me and threaten me then theres nor reason to talk to me.....So I told her not to speak to me" he shrugs as he wasnt going to apologize for anything he said she wouldnt stop talking to him so she made him say that. He knew she was probably going to tell alot of packies and they werent going to like him anymore but its just that way he assumed

(( Patman Ballinger: no*))

 

"News Flash jerk. When you disrespect an Elder, you get punished. I walked out on my wife to come here yesterday….I left her alone at a fucking restaurant, our private time after several days of working on different schedules…to run over here to treat Yvonne. And you send a rude, ungrateful text across the entire Pack channel because you didn't feel like waiting!" Amara paced around for a few seconds. "After all, that you go and jeopardize the treatment by deliberately kissing your infected lover…and I'm the bad one for giving you a vaccine?!"

 

Tanner 's ears flattened against his head at this point as he shook his head, taking a deep breath before murmuring out, "I don't know exactly what happened... but sounds like you're being an asshole Rico..." he lets out, looking to Amara, "I... I shouldn't stay here... I'm... just gonna make things worse..." he lets out, knowing he's getting angry and upset and more confused and depressed then he already is.

 

Rico shakes his head "Fine Im an asshole" he throws his hands in the air. "Look at me the biggest asshole ever " he hops down off the ledge and to the pool below and goes into the back of the part of the cave to be alone "The asshole will be downstairs if you need it" he said down and laid his head on the rock closing his eyes

 

Amara snarled, a more animalistic bellow than a hybrid feline would technically make. Fists clenched tight enough to draw blood, she'd storm after the sarcastic Rico. Now would be a smart time to hold her back…because after admitting all this sacrifice just to hear Rico blow it off like it meant nothing, Amara was not about to tell him off…oh no…she was ready to kill him.

 

Editor's note: *rings fight bell*

 

Tanner wouldn't hold her back though... he wasn't in a state of mind to do so... not with Amara's emotions as we as his own engulphing his mind. He clenched his fists and knawed his lip as he backed up some trying not to trip or anything as he tried to get away from Amara and her emotions before he did something that he'd regret. His heart was thumping in his chest before he shook his head and let out a loud scream before starting to sob softly, hands coming to his hair, injured shoulder aching a bit as he dropped to his knees trying to create an invisible sphere around himself like Alexandra was trying to teach him... it wasn't working though.

 

Rico heard the snarl but didnt think anything of it at the time. He scratched a his chin with a yawn before looking back at the wwater

 

Without Tanner to stop her, Amara jumped down to the pool, landing easily on her feet. The snarls never ceased to leave her lips, a challenging noise to the ears of panther. She'd prowl outside the grotto, snapping in a fit of loud growls and hissing, the sounds being the equivalent of curses deliberate enough to provoke Rico in their native feline dialect.

" You spineless ungrateful coward! If you want to run away from a conversation that badly, just say so!"

  

Rico was insulted at this and this was just nature but panthers werent an animal to turn down such calls. He angrily growled before turning over and walking through the falls to meet the call. He growled the yellow feline eyes on her as his claws came out. He opened his mouth in what almost looked like a smile but it was to show his canines in intimidations as he snarled back angrily

 

Amara knelt for a moment at the reply, not out of fear but merely bracing herself in case he charged. She raised her left hand, presenting her natural claws to the male as a message she would not be backing down to him. Her rank was important, and Amara had every intention of making that message clear in the hisses she returned.

 

Tanner tugged on his hair before shaking his head, shouting loudly, "STOP IT! STOP IT! STOP IT!" His claws dug into his scalp as he growled out, tears slipping down his cheeks as his eyes became rimmed with crimson, pupils getting larger as he stared at the ground.

 

Rico crouched down snarling and snapping. He indeed had no doubt she wouldnt back down but neither was he. When he was created his scientist wanteed to see how far a panther could be fused into a human. So his willingness to accept a challege was high. He continued the showing of his canines ignoring the pleas to stop. Hisses escaped his lips as he looked at her . His body lowered but he wasnt going to charge first with his size one bad charge could take him out the fight

Patman Ballinger: ((Trans)) Im not backing down....You wanna fight me thenfine I tried to walk from this issue

 

Amara took advantage of this hesitation, lunging forward to attack his midsection. A quick sweep with her left hand lashed out at the male panther, both hand and tongue desiring blood. The howling reflected her disgust in him, again repeating taunting growls and roars intent to demean him. In the wild, such noises were reminiscent of a female disapproving a weaker suitor.

Amara Parmelee: ((trans)) You did nothing of the sort! You pouted and turned your back like some angry child at nursery. Pathetic...why did I waste my time trying to treat you at all?!

 

Rico started back before a burning came across his stomache. Fresh claw marks began to bleed which didnt make the male panther too happy. He snarled loudly his right hand camed down in a club like motion hoping to rake his sharp claws down the side of her cheek. A snarl given taunting the female panther that most would take as an insult to their sex in the big cat world. He wanted nothing more than to sink his teeth into her neck . He snapped again in her direction before giving a call as if he claimed superiority in this battle

Patman Ballinger: ((Trans))Now you insult me? And spill my blood...FINE..... I did not ask you to fight........I told you to leave me alone...But you keep on talking. I told you not to treat me so you wasted your own time I asked you not to!!!!!

 

Tanner 's fingers dug into his scalp as he just stared at the ground, breath coming out in short little gasps as his usually golden eyes became crimson, pupils getting bigger and smaller as he stared at the ground. His claws were finally removed from his scalp as he slowly got to his feet, eyes narrowed dangerously as he moved towards the stairs, limping slightly but not seeming to be in any pain anymore.

 

Amara was not about to let Rico actually mark her in this fight. She braced for the impact which sent her flying rudely into the waters of the pool. Sitting up immediately and panting heavily, Amara spit the bit of blood from her mouth that was caused by the bruising. Several hisses went let out in Rico's direction. Running some water over her face, she adjusted her stance, flicking her ears in retaliation at Rico's bold proclamation of victory. She launched herself in the air this time, intent on landing a swift right hook to his face.

Amara Parmelee: ((trans)) If you wished to die so badly, just say so weakling! I won't have you infecting the entire family for your fucking pride! I'll have you show some damn respect before this is over.

 

Rico snarled as his swipe hit but it was short lived as he saw her lunge. His head snappedto the side as he tumbled meeting not water but just more rock. He groaned as his body met the hard surface but he shook his head moving back into his stance. His face now with fresh claw marks he could let that go. He lunged forward upon getting up his face and belly burned but his right raised a claws attempting to slam and rake hard at the top of her heard and forehead heavy snarls as he did

(( Patman Ballinger: couldnt*))

Patman Ballinger: ((Trans)) I dont get infected like most. If I get a cold its small and its not serious. I respected you until you threaten me and shock me....You know im still shook from the last time I was left behind by packies *Swipe* But no instead of just leaving me be you want to be an aggressor....I refuse to kill you but ill defend myself and make sure its know you started this!!!!

 

arwen Eiren wanders into the den arms crossed over her chest , her small eyes widen as she could see the fight , ears pinningb back against her head standing there"m.....mama!"she saw Rico attacking her mama, She lets out a very feirce, more then she even knew she could do growl"LEAVE MY MAMA ALONE!!"she yells at the top of her lungs"LEAVE HER ALONE!!"She screams

 

Tanner

Tanner Blackheart: [[uuh -_-"]]

Patman Ballinger: ((Tanner great post lol))

Amara Parmelee: ((It moved me to tears, Tanner. Such powerful words...hahaha))

Tanner Blackheart: [[T_T ur so mean]]

 

Amara screamed as her hair was caught, the weight of Rico's arm throwing her sideways in the rocky walls. Trickles of blood ran down the side of her face as she heard Arwen's voice. For once, she went back to English. "Arwen, you stay back! I want you nowhere near this!" She pushed herself off the wall, hoping to land a strong blow to Rico's already injured midsection. The roars of defiance and her authoritative stance would speak volumes to the male panther.

Amara Parmelee: ((trans)) Learn well, Rico! This is a pack, not a pride. The elders and leads are to be respected, not taken for granted with they are most convenient for you! You insulted the medics of this family and I will not stand for it! I've tried to be supportive and yet all you're done is behave like an infant!

 

Patman Ballinger: ((Yea me an amara are friends again it was such an inspiration lol jk

arwen Eiren: (damn i didnt see tanner's post)

 

Zhin Murakami wakes up, she streches and yawns looking around if she was alone. Zhin touches a spot behind her left ear and a mask morphes out her chaw around her mouth and nose, the last hing she remembered before she felt aslepp, was hearing Amara saying something about a virus.

 

Tanner had since moved down the stairs, ears plastered on his face and an almost strained, maybe pained expression on his face. He wasn't in pain, however, just fighting... with himself as he moved towards the fighting. His eyes went immidiately to Arwen as he growled out, "If you have your phone... call the pack now... tell them to get their asses here before the den gets smeared with blood..." he says, not seeming to care that his words might scare the child. He turned to Rico and Amara at this point and growled low in his throat, claws out, blood dripping down the sides of his face from the wounds he'd inflicted on himself, crimson eyes getting darker.

 

arwen Eiren pulls out her pda , pushing a button on it and screams into it top of her lung"RICO AND MAMA MARA TEARING EACH OTHER UP! NEED HELP!THEY WONT STOP FIGHTING!"

 

Rico moved forward to follow up his hand coming down again clawing at the top of her head again as another burn emerged from his midsection. New claw bloody marks emerging. The stupidest thing someone could do what intervene in a big cat fight. They were fights that couldnt be broken up and could get the one breaking it hurt. He snarled the pain in his stomacheand lower section growing. He roared out bringing his hand up turning waiting for her next attack

Patman Ballinger: ((Trans))I didnt insult the medics. the medics have my respect for the ones I have met. Notice my comments were to you not the medical staff. I said leave me be....LKeave me be........But now you come to fighting. i understand respect but yea anger and worry can make a person abit angry. Now look your cub pleads for you to stop but instead you want to fight.

 

arwen Eiren heart races as she waits for someone to come help to knock sense into the two fighting. Her little heart raced, she started breathing quickly"stop fightging stop fighting!"she growls , her eyes watering up"DONT HURT MY MOMMY!!"

 

Zhin Murakami comes downstairs following the fighting noises, she sees Amara and Rico fighting? What the.. she tabs Tanner at his shoulder "What is going on?!" Looking over to Arwen seeing the kid all frighten

 

Amara kept her body low to the ground before swinging a leg out to trip him. The roars only got louder as if trying to drown out any voice of reason. This was beyond a personal fit for her; this was the natural way of showing her stance on this issue. Wild howls filled every corner of the den as Amara explained herself in a tongue only Rico would understand.

Amara Parmelee: ((trans)) How quickly you forget your words from yesterday. "Fuck it…I'll do what little I can do since no one cares." Of course we cared! We've always cared! But no, you were too stuck up in your own damn impatience to see it! To hell with earlier, that's why I yelled at you yesterday and for your rude remarks, that's why you were shocked!

 

I'll comfort Arwen after this…after you apologize for trampling over our sacrifices! Mitka was traumatized from her attack and is still in training. Tanner was tortured by the UAC just a few days ago! I was with my wife…I'm sorry it took so long, but you have no right to look down on someone's attempt to help you!

 

Tanner knew he couldn't let their fight continue much longer... his own fight getting difficult. He couldn't hold the other back much longer if this continued but even considering leaving made it ten times worse to fight the other so he gave up on that idea completely as his eyes narrowed. It was either stop them from fighting... or better yet... knock at least one of them out before all hell broke loose... The moment he felt a tap on his shoulder, however, his eyes narrowed and he wipped around, claws going straight for Zhin's chest as he growls out loudly, eyes getting even darker.

 

arwen Eiren sdcreaming top her lungs"STOP FIGHTING!"her body shook breathing quickly smelling her mama mara's blood, ears pinned back against her head"no more no more!!FAMILY DONT FIGHT!!!!"She sways as she stands

 

Rico got off balance from her foot and snarled as he didnt trip fully seeing he was on all fours. He backed away shaking his head as his cheek and stomache bled. His snarls and roars echoeing loudly in return to hers a form of panther speaking that they only could understand

Patman Ballinger: ((Trans)) That noone was directed to you not that it makes my words better. From what I saw you were the only medic with a fucking pda ON!!!. I know tanner was gone !!!

 

Akiel Martian came running in catching the sight before him, emerald hued eyes shifting already into that darkened feral jade, "..ah 'ell na..", he shook his head, "..this'll na do..", his left mechanical arm raised, coming to be pointed upon Mara and Rico. the arm straightened and that small latch at the palm would open, his right, moved for its respective cerberus gun, "..cover yer ears, Arwen..", he said as he pulled it and raised it high, and ear splitting shot of a fifty cal depleted uranium shell would go off, resonatting the air about them with the sound, Syle's ears flattened agains his head before he growled out, "..S'ENOUGH ALL O' YE'S!!"

 

Jayde Rasmuson enters and observes the situation at hand.. walking closer to Arwen she puts her hand on the little one's head, a gesture that had become familiar with her. Taking morenote to Amara, Jaydesucked in a deep breath then exhaled.. looking about to the others, emerald glance finally resting 'pon Syle, who was.. fuckin' shit up.. oh shit! Jayde kind of ducked then watched the effect this had..

 

Zhin Murakami is a little surprised at Tanners move, as his claws dig into her chest she reaches up with her left mechanic hand griping around his wrist, she looks straight into his eyes, purring softly "Shhh..." then she heard Syle yelling and autmaticly ducks pulling Tanner down with her.

 

Amara let out a last minute reply, her tail hairs flaring angrily as she sounded more like a large angry domestic cat before the sound of Syle's gun shut her up. The blood dripping from her forehead didn't seem to bother her though the immediate ringing in her ears was a different story. Her hands rose to cover her ears from the stinging. "…was deafening us really necessary?" she whimpered.

Amara Parmelee: ((trans)) I was saying goodbye to my lover whom I haven't had a proper sit down with in days! It's not like I just got the message and ran off; we were having a meal…Tanner's PDA was destroyed, and even if he could hear the feed, he was in no position to help!

 

arwen Eiren hears the gun going off and lets out a scream, and then well between watching her mom fighting , hearing the gun go off, the poor 5 year old fainted

 

Rico snarls his ears slam down against his head as thee sound of the gun erupts. His cheek and belly were bleeding but his panther communication continued

Patman Ballinger: ((trans))I didnt know you were with her!!! Ok im sorry but I lost alot and It got to me when it seemed like she was dying!!!! So dont turn the whole medic team on me when I spoke to you....And I know tanner wasnt on the line so you were the only one i was speaking to......Now ya daughter needs you more than this fight

 

Rennat would have winced as he's grabbed by the wrist and pulled down but this wasn't Tanner anymore... this was Rennat who felt no pain. He stared into Zhin's eyes as she shushed him, dark crimson eyes focusing on her and nothing else. He focused his mind on her, blocking out some of the emotions from the other's, dark eyes getting a bit lighter as he gives a bit of an almost pained expression, still fighting the other personality back. He winced quite a bit, tensing against the other at the shot, ears ringing as he growls out.

[12:55] Tanner Blackheart: [[Tanner would have not Rennat would have -_-"]]

 

Akiel Martian: "When it seem that no one be listenin' ta a worried child n' oi get a text, aye oi think it be..", he said and lowered the gun, wagging it between Rico and Amara with his next words, "..what the fuck be all this about, we're supposed ta be family n' oi walk in ta ye' both tearin' at one another..", he holstered the cerberus gun. Mechanical left arm lowering too as the latch closed, "..what's all this, y'all two have beef, ye' should'na be scrappin' in the den..ye' be scarrin' the wee ones.."

 

Zhin Murakami slowly straightens up after Syles shoot, her right ear rings and is flaten on the head, she pulls Tanner up wither, her mech hand gripping his right wrist like a bench vice. She continues staring at him, noticing the change in his eyes she purrs softly again "Shhhhhh...."

 

Amara backed away, moving to check on the collapsed Arwen. "Sweetheart…Arwen…are you alright?" She didn't feel any now pains, so she knew she had not been shot. Ignoring Syle a moment, she mews her final response to Rico. They had reached a relative understanding though no one understood that. She'd gotten the apology she'd been after and the male knew now why she'd been so cross. Not the traditional means of talking things out. "It was in regards to some events concerning yesterday. We've settled it for the most far though. Sometimes, between panthers, it's easier the converse that way. I'm sorry for scaring any of ya…"

Amara Parmelee: ((trans)) If you read your messages again you would have seen my reply "I'm in Madres with Adagio...but I'll head over to the den now." *walks to Arwen* I would never turn the family against you over a petty argument like this, but I'd appreciate if you thought a little better of us.

 

arwen Eiren had a huge bump on her forehead a bit passedout to respond at the moment, poor kid got the hell scaredout of her

 

Rico shakes his head free of blood before dipping it in the water. The had worked it out abit and Rico got how he felt out and gave his sorry. He did like having other panthers in the pack to the fact they could talk in their own way but only bad that their language no matter what will look hostile. He dipped his head in the water a sting aas he felt his face stretched when he opened his mouth gettin g a few sips of water. He sighed gave one last few growls before coming uo and sitting on rock

Patman Ballinger: ((Trans)) Im sorry......Its just been a bad run of events.....Hope ovetime this issue heals

 

Rennat 's heart was racing as he continues to fight back the other personality, the battle getting easier as he focuses on Zhin, though he could still feel the quickly dimming anger coming from the two who'd been fighting but his focus was on Zhin, not seeming bothered by the grip on his wrist, though still seeming to 'wince' every now and then as he continued to fight with the darker personality. Thank god Arwen had managed to get help... or things could have ended badly.

 

Akiel Martian frowned, shaking his head, "..will take a whole lot more ta scare me than two brawlin' Panthers..", in truth, male panther hybrids worried him, always, Dax was one and Rico another, Panthers were strong cats and possibly the only spcies of Hybrid able to go toe to toe with Syle. The Wolf had size and strength and if it wasnt for that, well. He certainly would have to be worried then, he looked from Amara to Rico, and frowned, he shook his head. Then looked to Tanner, "..oi dun' feel like seein' Rennat ta'day lad..ye' keep 'im locked away nice n' tight.."

 

Zhin Murakami nods at Syles words, she was glad the fight was over. Zhin holds her gaze straight for Tanners eyes purring deeper as she tightens the grip on his wrist a little more once more she hushes at him "Shhhhhh..." her eyes glowing.

 

Amara cradled the child in her bruised arms, the blood covered claws long retracted. "It was not out of violence if that explains it further. Just a really primal form of a heart to heart." She sighed as she held Arwen, a long hiss and low growling spoken to Rico again ending in a faint smile. "Still, two Pack members fighting is not something to be encouraged. As the Medic Lead and as an elder, I should know this."

Amara Parmelee: ((trans)) I'd like to help you if you'd just let me…I know how

horrible it can be to be held powerless and captive in a cell…tortured to the point of madness. We can talk another time…when you are ready that is.

 

Rico listens to the growls and nods his head giving a growl in return. He shakes his head rapidly his hair sending water and blood that dripped from it flying. He stretched his tail swung slowly as he looked around then back to his claws covered in blood and strands of hair. He began to pull at them cleaning them as he sat there

Patman Ballinger: ((trans)) Yea whenevers' fine...But now les both calm down and you can make sure your cubs is ok

 

arwen Eiren groans her blue eyes flickering opening letting out a yelp hand to her head she starts to cry

 

Rennat 's ears twitches at Syle's words as he lets out a bitter laugh, "sorry... but Tanner's not in control... hasn't been since shortly after those two morons started fighting... It's not me you should be worried about though... Just be glad i'm around to stop 'the other one' from paying you all a visit..." he lets out, having finally looked away from Zhin, eyes now Rennat's usual crimson color though his heart was still racing as he speeks again, "It may be best if Tanner stays away from the pack for a while... if things like this are going to happen... it's not safe for him or for you... Not till he's got things worked out."

 

Akiel Martian looked them all over again, sighing, from Amara behind him to Rico, to Zhin and Tanner, "..glad that be over at least..", he said shaking his head, if that was talking, he wondered for a moment, if Keira, with her desire to always have a scrap with Syle, was her way too, of talking? Was there a message to be read in the way, Keira faught? Strange as it would seem, but Amara and Rico, had given Syle something to think on, mayhaps sometimes, later, he would pull one of them aside and ask to learn more on Panther type Hybrids. It could help him with his own, oddly chaotic relationship, "..aye, Mara, ye' should..as should Rico..", his voice was calm, soft, there was no blame being pointed at anyone, "..mayhaps next time, ye' both need a heart ta heart it could be..away from the wee ones eyes?", he certainly wasnt one to go against instinct. After all it was what kept Syle alive this long, instinct, "..oi gotta go, y'all..please..stay safe..", he said before moving, "..aye, dun wanna see that one either..", he said plainly to Tanner before walking out.

 

Amara immediately tried to calm the child. "It's okay. I'm right here, Arwen." She'd rock back and forth gently to assure Arwen the dust had settled. She'd only nod to Rico, agreeing that the argument of sorts was over. "Rennat…kindly don't call us morons. And if Tanner's mind needs a break from the family and what not for a while, please go ahead and leave. We had no intention of harming tanner nor sparking you to the surface." She groaned at Syle's words, but knew that if her own elders were here, they'd be furious with her.

 

arwen Eiren buries her head into Amara's shoulder and clings, little tears rolling down her cheeks "no more fighting."

 

Rico groans as his wound stretch when he lays down. He yawns hanging his leg and arm over into the water and looks around "We need a tree in here" he mumbles before closing his eyes just resting for a moment but nit sleeping

 

Zhin Murakami looks from Tanner to Syle and back. Slowly she lets go of Tanners wrist, looking down on her chest, she curses as the green was darkened with blood, she did not notice till now. "Dammit, this suit was only a few days old" she grumbles to her self, then she looks up saying loud "Everybody ok so far?"

 

arwen Eiren looks up" Kitty scratching post?I can buy one uh huhs."

 

Rennat looks calmly over to Amara, heart beat starting to return to normal as he lets out calmly, "sorry... still a bit tense. We need to keep stuff like that away from Tanner right now... a new, very dangerous, personality has 'appeared' and it's not a friendly one. His name is Tearnn... and he will tear and anyone or anything that's in the vicinity," he explains as he moves to stand slowly, looking to Zhin, "sorry for attacking you."

Tanner Blackheart: [[at anyone]]

 

Amara shook her head, pausing to pull a cleansing wipe from her bag. "No..no..I know what it looked like but we weren't fighting; we were arguing at best. Mommy's a panther, and that fighting you saw was how panthers argue or voice their opinions. It's not the most civil of sights." She'd hug the girl tightly before attempting to clean her forehead. "Rico, try the beams of the ruined building rather than a tree in here. The city ledges are good also for relaxing." Rennat's description was disturbing at best. "Where did this persona grow from? The UAC attacks…or is it better not to ask?"

 

That had to be one my most enjoyable RPs to date

www.anglesey-today.com/llynnon-mill.html

And an adjoining prehistoric settlement .

 

I edited the other shots to remove minor flaws , like dust and scratches , but I like how this looked like an old postcard straight out of the camera.

  

Trying new things , dusted off my old Kiev 88 medium format film camera ( a Soviet copy of a Hasselblad 1600) from about 1990 and tried out some new (old) lenses on it.

A Zodiac-8 (30mm fisheye lens) , a Volna-3 (80mm standard lens) and a Kalinar-3 (150mm short telephoto ) . Got a few more lenses on the way .

 

These cameras from the former Soviet union do have a reputation for terrible quality control at the factories , they build the camera , you tweak it to get it working right !

 

First two roll's of film I put though it are out of date , but sort of came out O.K .......

 

The black and white film was in a 6x4.5cm back and leaked light from the dark slide slot like a sieve !!!

Replacement parts have arrived from Hasselblad .

The developed film also had unusual scratches on them that need investigating , but overall still usable.

Adjustment is also needed to set it up better for long fast lenses .

 

Dusted off my old 120 roll film scanner from 2001 and it actually worked on Windows 7 !

Set it up on a "medium" resolution and it churned out a huge 170mb file , compared to the 24mb RAW files from my Sony a900 .

The scan output was set at approx. a 70 megapixel equivalent .

Still looked good but way bigger than needed !

Χριστιανικό μουσικό ντοκιμαντέρ | Αυτός που κυριαρχεί επί των πάντων | Μαρτυρεί την παντοδυναμία και την κυριαρχία του Δημιουργού (Greek Subtitles)

 

Στο απέραντο σύμπαν, όλα τα ουράνια σώματα κινούνται με ακρίβεια στην τροχιά τους. Κάτω από τον ουρανό, όλα τα βουνά, τα ποτάμια και οι λίμνες είναι οριοθετημένα και όλα τα πλάσματα ζουν και αναπαράγονται κατά τη διάρκεια των τεσσάρων εποχών σύμφωνα με τους νόμους της ζωής.... Τα πάντα έχουν σχεδιαστεί με τέτοια λεπτότητα — υπάρχει ο Ισχυρός Θεός που κυβερνά και οργανώνει τα πάντα; Από τότε που ερχόμαστε σε αυτόν τον κόσμο κλαίγοντας, παίζουμε διαφορετικούς ρόλους στη ζωή. Μεταβαίνουμε από τη γέννηση στο γήρας, στην ασθένεια, στον θάνατο, ζούμε μεταξύ χαράς και λύπης.... Από πού προέρχονται πράγματι οι άνθρωποι και πού πράγματι οδεύουμε; Ποιος κυβερνά τη μοίρα μας; Από την αρχαιότητα ως τη σύγχρονη εποχή, μεγάλα έθνη έχουν ακμάσει, δυναστείες έχουν έλθει και παρέλθει, και οι χώρες και οι λαοί έχουν προοδεύσει και χάθηκαν στον ρου της ιστορίας.... Όπως οι νόμοι της φύσης, έτσι και οι νόμοι της εξέλιξης της ανθρωπότητας περιέχουν άπειρα μυστήρια. Θα θέλατε να μάθετε τις απαντήσεις σε αυτά; Το ντοκιμαντέρ Αυτός που κυριαρχεί επί των πάντων θα σας καθοδηγήσει για να φτάσετε στη ρίζα τους, για να αποκαλύψετε όλα αυτά τα μυστήρια!

The story so far: The Dreamer loses his Pearl in a grassy mound - evidently her grave. He swoons with grief, and awakens in an earthly paradise, through which there runs a beautiful stream. The land on the opposite bank seems even more beautiful. He wanders further down the stream, hoping to find a bridge or a ford. Just when he starts to become afraid of the dangers that may be in store for him, he sees a young woman sitting at the foot of a crystal cliff on the opposite bank, and instantly recognises her as his lost Pearl. He hails his Pearl and expresses his relief that she still exists, but she begins to reprove him for his lack of faith. She criticises him for only believing that her soul is immortal now that he can see her, and is shocked by his suggestion that he - a mortal man - has a hope of joining her in Paradise without first experiencing death. He tells her that for him to walk away from her now that he has found her again would be to suffer a fresh bereavement. She replies that it is divinely decreed that he cannot cross over to her. The Dreamer pleads with his Pearl to accept that his rash questions were borne out of his great grief, and asks her to describe her life in Paradise. She relents, and tells him that she is crowned Queen of Heaven, and is married to the Lamb. The Dreamer is shocked by this assertion. He says that he thought only the Virgin Mary was Queen of Heaven. Pearl replies with a description of a-semi egalitarian heaven in which all inhabitants are kings and queens, and asserts that although Mary has pre-eminence, none of those in heaven would ever question it, because she is so “courteous”. She cites the Pauline notion that the church is the body of Christ in support of her claim. The Dreamer is even less convinced than before. He wonders how she can have been instantly crowned a Queen of Heaven when she was on the earth for less than two years. She replies at length, citing the parable of the labourers in the vineyard as justification for her rapid advancement in the kingdom of Heaven. She continues to retell the parable, and concludes by insisting that like the workers who worked less than two hours in the vineyard, she was first in line for God’s reward when she reached Heaven. The Dreamer cannot understand. Surely, he argues, those who have endured a lifetime’s pain and temptation must have precedence. She responds that those who die as children die innocent, whereas those who have lived longer are more likely to be tainted by the world, and argues that the Dreamer is underestimating the grace of God. She continues by expounding a series of Biblical texts on the theme of righteousness and justification, culminating with the scene from the gospels in which Christ welcomes the children, and reproves his disciples for attempting to repel them. She continues to expound on this theme, reminding the Dreamer that Christ insisted that one must become like a little child in order to approach him. The Dreamer admits that she is stupendously beautiful, but wonders how she can have won the title of Queen and bride of Christ, in the face of stiff competition: all those other women who have gone to heaven. Her reply draws upon the Old Testament prophets and the Book of Revelation: the Lamb which was slain in Jerusalem will return to govern the New Jerusalem as its King, with a company of a hundred and forty-four thousand wives – one of whom is the Pearl. She begins to describe the state of bliss experienced by all the brides of the Lamb.

 

Pearl: Part 15

 

“Jerusalem’s Lamb bears no tint

Of any pigment but pure white.

No spot or stain adheres to it –

The wool luxuriant and bright.

Each soul that never bore a spot

Becomes the Lamb’s stainless wife,

And there is no place for spite

Among our thousands – blessed with life:

Each thousand, multiplied by five,

Would only make us praise and bless

The more. In a host, love can thrive

And wax in honour, never less.

 

None of us is less in bliss

Who bears a pearl upon her breast.

Those whom a spot belies,

With pearls or crowns are never blessed.

Although our corpses are clad in clods

And you are grieving without rest,

We have new life beyond old loss

And in one death place all our trust:

The Lamb our joy, from cares released,

Moved to delight at every Mass –

And each bride’s bliss is brightest, best

Of all – none is honoured any the less.

 

You give less credence to my tale

Than you should. Look in the Apocalypse:

‘I say,’ says John, ‘the Lamb stands tall

On Mount Zion, is lovely, and thrives,

A hundred thousand in his trail –

Forty four thousand more than this!

And on their foreheads, true to tell:

The Lamb’s name, and the Father’s –

A choir from Heaven uplifts and sings

Like overflowing rivers, floods

And thunder rumbling in the clouds –

A rising clamour, and never less.

 

Nevertheless, though that shout is sharp

And though the myriad voice is loud,

A new sound makes my spirits leap.

To listen is to love: a great cloud

Of spirits plucking upon harps,

The new song clearly declaimed

In discourse sonorous and steep:

Harmonies, melodies, undefiled

Before God’s throne – a flood

Of song. Four beasts bow and bless;

The aldermen, the grave and good,

Sing it loudly, and never less.

 

Nevertheless, none is so skilled in song

For all the craft they might possess

That they could sing the slightest strain

Of that hymn – except for those

Of the Lamb’s company, the earth’s slain:

First fruits, set aside as God’s –

The Lamb’s treasures, kept from spoiling,

Like him in colour, clad in clothes

Of Heaven, dressed in truth and love’s

Assurance. Their sweet tongues confess:

Their spotless, indissoluble, heavenly lives

Are in their matchless Master – never less.’”

  

“Nevertheless, I cannot help but thank

You, Pearl,” I say, “though I chose

To question heavenly wisdom with rank

Worldliness. To Christ’s chamber you arose

While I floundered in mud and muck,

And you sprang up so rich – a rose,

A living bloom on this blissful bank,

Where delight’s angels never close

Their eyes on the beauty I must lose:

My fleeting hind. How can I express

My worldly thoughts, rough-hewn and coarse?

Yet grant me one boon, nevertheless...”

  

Late fourteenth century poem, written in a north-west midland dialect of Middle English, paraphrased by Giles Watson. This section of the poem is one stanza longer than the others. Some editors have suggested that the second stanza is not original, although I think the third is a more likely candidate, since it repeats material from section 14. However, if all six stanzas are included, the poem has 101 stanzas. So does Sir Gawain and the Green Knight – an attractive argument for authenticity, given that the poet was so meticulous in his deployment of structural devices. Pearl’s descriptions of heavenly life are drawn from the Book of Revelation and Ezekiel.

The paternal great-grandfather, grandfather and father of G. K. Chesterton were engaged in the business of selling houses (estate agents as they are called in England). His father, Edward, married Marie Grosjean, whose family had long been English, but had originally come from French Switzerland. They had three children, Gilbert, born on May 29, 1874, Cecil, five years his junior, and Beatrice, who died in childhood.

 

Gilbert's father distinguished between living and making a living: a successful businessman, he had a dozen hobbies, not the least of them the making of a toy-theatre, and he was widely read, especially in English literature.

 

A happy childhood in a happy home laid the foundation for Gilbert's sane and sensible outlook on life. As a little boy he read fairy tales; as a big boy he wrote and illustrated them, some of which are preserved in his book The Coloured Lands. Gilbert first attended Colet Court School, entering St. Paul's as a day student when he was twelve. The reports on him for his six years there (1887-92) were that he was a good boy but an indifferent student, a dreamer, interested chiefly in drawing and English literature. In his "dramatic journal,"kept irregularly from his sixteenth year, he dramatized scenes from Scott and burlesqued portions of Shakespeare. He later acknowledged the strong influence on his youthful formation made by the Junior Debating Club, of which he was chairman. It met weekly at the home of one of its dozen teenage members and, following tea, one of them read a paper which was then debated. In the issues of its organ, The Debater, his first prose and verse were printed; his essays on Milton, Pope, Gray, Cowper, Burns, and Wordsworth being noteworthy. In his last year at St. Paul's (1892), he entered a competition for a prize poem (on St. Francis Xavier), and won it. From 1892 to 1895 he studied art at the Slade School and during part of the time he attended lectures on English literature at University College. A fellow-student whose family controlled the publishing firm of Hodder & Stoughton gave him some art books to review in the firm's monthly, The Boohman. And upon leaving Slade, he entered the office of a publisher of spiritualistic literature and later the office of the general publisher, Fisher Unwin. There he began to write Greybeards at Play as well as to revise, edit and counsel the works of others.

 

At St. Paul's Gilbert formed lifelong friendships with the future writer Edmund C. Bentley and with Lucian Oldershaw. In 1896 Lucian was courting Ethel Blogg (anglicized from Blogue) and took Gilbert with him to call. At first sight he fell in love with her sister Frances and, after a courtship extended by his then meager earnings, they were married in 1901. It was Lucian who, in 1900, also introduced the twenty-six-year old Gilbert to the thirty-year-old Belloc. Their reciprocal influence was lifelong as was their friendship.

 

In 1899 Gilbert began writing for The Speaker, a Liberal weekly. His first book, a volume of comic verse which he also illustrated, Greybeards at Play, was successfully published in 1900; later that year, his father financed publication of his second book, The Wild Knight and Other Poems. But it was his brilliant though unpopular pro-Boer stand on the Boer War which first brought him to public attention, and by 1901 he also was writing regularly for The Daily News. His third book, The Defendant (1901), comprised some of his essays from The Speaker, and is suffused with paradoxes, a literary form which has since been associated with his name. ("I did not acquit Chesterton of paradox," wrote his great admirer Msgr. Knox, "but, after all, what was a paradox but a statement of the obvious so as to make it sound untrue?")

 

He prided himself on being a journalist, and much of his work was first published in the popular journals of the day, many of his books being collected and edited from these essays, and much more of it has never been collected at all.

 

He was a tall man-six-foot two, and a stout one- nearly three hundred pounds; he dressed unconventionally in a wide-brimmed slouch hat and a flowing cloak; and carried a walking stick; he had a leonine head and a rather straggly blonde mustache. By the time he was only thirty-two he had become famous, instantly recognized in public and in caricature. True, some of his most popular works had been published by then: G. F Watts (1902), Twelve Types (1902), Robert Browning (in the English Men of Letters series, 1903), The Napoleon of Notting Nill, which he called his first important book (1904), The Club of Queer Trades (1905), Heretics (1905), and Charles Dickens (1906). And in social intercourse he was already one with such personalities of the day as Joseph Conrad, Henry James, Laurence Binyon, James M. Barrie, Max Beerbohm, Swinburne, George Meredith, Yeats, and Granville Barker.

 

In 1904, Sir Oliver Lodge invited him to become a candidate for the Chair of Literature at Birmingham University, but he declined. The invitation was doubtless extended on the strength of his books on Browning and on Dickens. The success of the latter was such that he was requested to write a series of prefaces to all of Dickens' novels.

 

At the time of his marriage he believed in the basic Christian religious truths but in no particular religion. His wife was a convinced Anglo-Catholic, and she was particularly pleased when in 1905 he accepted an invitation to be the first of a series of lay preachers in St. Paul's Church, Covent Garden.

 

From this time on there was an almost constant stream of lecture engagements far and wide and to almost every type of organization,-religious, literary, social, and even political. He was famous, he was wanted, and he couldn't say no. His wife became his secretary recording times, places, subjects, and arranging itineraries. He became so pressed for time that he had to write at odd moments and to do his newspaper essays at deadline. This constant pressure extended from 1904 to 1908. He was notoriously absent-minded. Typical was the telegram he sent his wife when he was en route to give a lecture: "Am in Market Harborough. Where ought I to be?~' He hated physical exertion as much as he reveled in mental activity.

 

Another phantasy, The Man Who Was Thursday (1907) was followed by Orthodoxy (1908). When Gilbert had attacked the philosophy of G. S. Street, he retorted that he would worry about it when G.K. would clarify his own. The tesult was Orthodoxy, a series of positive arguments for Christianity. Etienne Gilson considered it ''The best piece of apologetic the century has produced." Incidentally, Gilbert sold the manuscript outright for about $400.00. The meager returns on his numerous and popular writings moved him at this time to employ a literary agent; with gratifying results.

 

He began a weekly column, "Our Notebook,'' in The Illustrated London News in 1905 and continued it until his death thirty-one years later.

 

In 1909 he and his wife moved from Battersea, London, to the suburban town of Beaconsfield, which was to be their home for the rest of their lives. Their desire for children was never to be fulfilled; later they adopted Dorothy Collins who had become Gilbert's secretary in 1926. At Overroads, their Beaconsfield home, he was removed from the bustle and bars of Fleet Street and had more leisure for his friends: Max Beerbohm, Jack Phillmore, Msgr. O'Connor, Maurice Baring, Belloc, George Wyndham, Msgr. Knox, and a host of others. But his social life did not deter the stream of his books, as witness The Ball and the Cross, What's Wrong With the World (changed by his publishers from What's Wrong? and in which he formulated his sociology), Alarms and Discursions, and Blake (all published in 1910), Criticisms and Appreciations of Dickens, The Innocence of Father Brown, and, what many deem his greatest writing, The Ballad of the White Horse (all published in 1911). Too, his interest in politics, which he had had from boyhood, became more active: he began by fighting the sale of peerages as a means of secretly raising party funds, and continued blasting every other form of political corruption. Of necessity this interest included social reform, public education, a free press, etc. He resigned from the Liberal owned Daily News (a property of Cadbury of Cadbury's Cocoa) to write for the Daily Herald. He doubtless resigned just before being asked to, for his recent statements regarding the Liberal party leaders included: "Some of them are very nice oldgentlemen, some of them are very nasty old gentlemen, and some of them are old without being gentlemen at all." And again, "The best of His Majesty's Ministers are agnostics, and the worst are devil worshippers." This hit hard because at least nominally Church of England men (some ecclesiastics) were the predominant rulers of the realm.

 

Reacting against what they believed wrong with the English social-economic condition, Gilbert, his brother Cecil, and Belloc formulated their own program: Distributism. One of their principal points of controversy was over private ownership, chiefly ownership of the land which was tragically curtailed by the law of enclosure by which some five million acres ceased in effect to be the common property of the poor and became the private property of the rich. In books and articles they carried on their fight for the liberty of Englishmen against increasing enslavement to a plutocracy, and to expose and combat corruption in public life. As their audience increased and took form, they decided upon publishing their own paper. It was called The Eye Witness, from 1911-12, The New Witness, from 1912-23, G.K.'s Weekly, from 1925-36, and The Weekly Review, since 1936. It was edited at various times by each of the three. In the Marconi case, they contended that Godfrey Isaacs had used Rulus Isaacs to purchase ministerial favor. The court verdict in this complicated litigation was a gentle rebuke to the Isaacs and a small fine for editor Cecil. So small in view of the serious charges made that the Chesterbelloc considered it a moral victory. But the government then showed its contempt for integrity by appointing Godfrey Isaacs as the Viceroy of India and giving Rufus the title of Lord Reading.

 

Gilbert's books in this period included Manalive (1911), A Miscellany of Men, essays (1912), The Victorian Age in Literature (1913), The Wisdom of Father Brown (1914), and The Flying Inn (1914). His poetic play, Magic, was produced in England in October 1913, and in Germany soon afterward. And following a conversation with Msgr. O'Connor on the subject, he wrote his best known single poem, "The Ballad of Lepanto" (19 12).

 

In September 1916, Cecil enlisted as a private in the army and died in France on December 6, 1918. Upon his enlistment, Gilbert succeeded him as editor of The New Witness.

 

Gilbert went on a lecture tour to Palestine (which became a determining factor in his conversion) in 1919, to Italy in 1920, and to the United States in 1921-22 and again in 1930-31. From these travels came The New Jerusalem (1920), What I Saw in America (1922) and Sidelights on New London and Newer York (1932). His American tour included a series of thirty-six lectures on Victorian literature and history at the University of Notre Dame (his poem "The Arena" commemorates his visit), as well as talks delivered at San Francisco, Omaha, Oklahoma City, Nashville, New York, Chicago, Detroit, Philadelphia, Boston, and other cities.

 

The same period witnessed the publication of his Irish Impressions (1919), The Uses of Diversity (1920), The Superstition of Divorce (1920), Eugenics and Other Evils (1922), The Man Who Knew Too Much (1922), and Fancies Versus Fads (1923). Some idea of his intellectual fertility is indicated by the fact that at one time he had thirty books contracted for with various publishers.

 

Gilbert's brother Cecil had become a Catholic shortly before going to war and Gilbert himself had been forming a Catholic mind slowly but steadily from about the same time. But he was not one to be hurried and fortunately even his closest friends, Maurice Baring and Ronald Knox (themselves converts), though he acknowledged their influence upon him, did not try to hurry him. Eventually it was Father O'Connor who received him into the Church in 1922. On the same day he wrote his celebrated poem "The Convert." By her own conscience his wife followed him into the fold four years later.

 

The time between the death of The New Witness in 1923 and the birth of G.K.'s Weekly in 1925 gave him sufficient leisure to write two of his most important books: St. Francis of Assisi (1923) and The Everlasting Man (1925) . But to the paper which enshrined his brother's memory though it now bore his own initials, Gilbert devoted much of his time as editor from 1925 to 1930. Most of those who knew him regarded it as a sacrifice. Besides Belloc and himself, a steady contributor was Eric Gill; out of friendship for Gilbert, Shaw and Wells contributed occasionally.

 

In 1926 the social and economic program of the paper feathered the Distributist League, of which Gilbert was elected president. He stated that ''Their simple idea was to restore possession." To restore property and prosperity to the people from whom it had been taken by big government and big business. Distributism was to be a practical alternative to Capitalism and Socialism. Branches were soon established throughout England and the circulation of its organ, G.K.'s Weekly, rose from 4,650 to 8,000 copies. The influence of the movement far exceeded its numbers; men like Father McNabb, O.P., in England (whom some hold fathered rather than was a disciple of the movement), Msgr. Ligutti in the United States, Dr. Coady and Dr. Tompkins in Canada, as well as others in Australia and New Zealand, acknowledged its influence upon their labors.

 

Despite the yearly loss by the paper and his constant charity to the needy, from panhandlers to causes, Gilbert helped to build the Church at Beaconsfield, until then a mission of High Wycomb parish. It became his memorial.

 

In 1926 were published The Outline of Sanity, The Catholic Church and Conversion, The Incredulity of Father Brown (as Gilbert said to Father Rice, "My publishers have demanded a fresh batch of corpses"), and The Queen of the Seven Swords; in 1926, his Collected Poems, The Return of Don Quixote (which first appeared serially in G.K.'s Weekly), Robert Louis Stevenson, The Secret of Father Brown, and a play, The Judgment of Dr. Johnson. Like his Magic, it was successful as literature, not as theatre. The Father Brown detective stories brought him charter membership in the Detection Club (1929) and soon afterwards its presidency.

 

He spent a month of 1927 in Poland, a nation whose true place in Europe he held high. Two years later his visit to Rome resulted in The Resurrection of Rome (1930). His more successful books of this period were his Catholic essays, The Thing (1929), and the two volumes of general essays, Come to Think of It (1930) and All Is Grist (1931), and his reflections flowing from the Eucharistic Congress which he and his wife attended in 1932, Christendom in Dublin, his studies of Chaucer and of St. Thomas Aquinas. Of this last, Etienne Gilson, a foremost Thomistic scholar, said: "I consider it as being without possible comparison the best book ever written on St. Thomas. And P'ere Gillet, O.P., MasterGeneral of the Dominican Order, lectured on and from it to large meetings of Dominicans.

 

From 1932 until his death he engaged increasingly in radio lectures, delivering as many as forty a year over the B.B.C. The B.B.C. is a state monopoly (as such, Gilbert attacked it: "It is wicked to nationalize mines and railroads; but we lose no time in nationalizing tongues and talk''), and he had to submit a manuscript for each lecture; but, for the sake of spontaneity, he was not held to the letter of it. These talks were so well received that a B.B.C. official remarked after his death that "G.K.C. in another year or so would have become the dominating voice from Broadcasting House." Too, they reached untold thousands who had never read his writings.

 

While in Rome, Gilbert interviewed Mussolini and had an audience with the Holy Father. In 1934 he was elected, honoris causa, to the Athenaeum Club. Both he and Belloc were invested as Papal Knight Commanders of the Order of St. Gregory with Star. At his death in 1936 the Holy See cabled Cardinal Hinsley: "Holy Father deeply grieved death Mr. Gilbert Keith Chesterton devoted son of Holy Church gifted Defender of the Catholic Faith. His Holiness offers paternal sympathy people of England, assures prayers dear departed, bestows Apostolic Benediction."

 

The panegyric was delivered in Westminster Cathedral by Msgr. Ronald Knox. His monument was designed by Eric Gill and burial was at Beaconsfield. His wife survived him by a little more than two years.

 

He had employed his great God-given gifts with humility and charity; indeed these two virtues characterized his life.

 

Books on him are numerous: first in time and also very important is G. K. Chesterton: a Criticism (1908), published anonymously but later learned to be by his brother Cecil; Belloc's brief but brilliant The Place of Chesterton in English Letters (1940); Father Brown on Chesterton (1937) by Msgr. John O'Connor; The Laughing Prophet (1937) by Emile Cammaerts is concerned more with the man than with the writer; Chesterton As Seen by His Contemporaries (1939), includes material by Gilbert himself, edited by Cyril Clemens; Gilbert's Autobiography (published posthumously in 1936), in which, with characteristic humility, he seems bent upon writing about everyone but himself; and the definitive biography, G. K. Chesterton (1943) by his long-time friend, Maisie Ward (Mrs. Frank J. Sheed).

DIE SAGE

 

Im innersten Winkel des oberen Kainachtales, zu Füßen der Roßbachalpe, liegt auf einer 938 Meter hohen Felskuppe die Ruine der alten Burg Hanstein, auch Hauenstein genannt, die der Landesfürst im 13. Jahrhundert dem Edelgeschlecht der Hanauer verliehen hatte. Die Burg war so angelegt, daß sie die wichtige Straße über den Gleinalmsattel ins obere Murtal sperren konnte. Den Hanauern folgten die Laun, dann war der unglückliche Greißenegger Inhaber; 1483 erwarb das Stift Lambrecht die Feste, dann die Stadt Judenburg und zuletzt wurde sie mit der Herrschaft Piber vereinigt. — Die Ringmauer ist noch erhalten, und durch drei Tore kommt man in den innersten Hof, wo an höchster Stelle das dreistöckige Turmhaus (Wohnturm) steht. Schon bald nach 1500 wird die Burg als „öde'', d. h. unbewohnbar, geschildert.

 

Eine Sage behauptet, daß die Burg Hanstein mit der Burg Klingenstein im Sallatal durch einen geheimen unterirdischen Gang verbunden gewesen sei, was aber wegen der allzu großen Entfernung (13 km Luftlinie!) ganz unmöglich ist.

 

*

 

Ein Bauerndirndl ließ eines Tages ihre Schafe vor der Ruine grasen. Plötzlich kam eine altertümlich gekleidete Frau aus dem Burgtor heraus und hatte Nüsse in der Schürze, die sie dem Mädchen schenken wollte mit den Worten: „Greif zu, sie gehören dir!'' Das Mädchen aber fürchtete sich, nahm die Gabe nicht an und versteckte sich. Da jammerte die Frau laut: „Törichtes Kind, du hättest mich erlösen können und wärst überdies reich geworden, denn die Nüsse hätten sich in Gold verwandelt. Nun muß ich wieder viele hundert Jahre warten, bis mich ein tapferes Mädchen erlösen wird.'' — Mit diesen Worten verschwand die Gestalt heftig weinend im alten Gemäuer.

 

Am Oswaldbach, eine gute Gehstunde vom Dorf Kainach entfernt, steht die Hankersäge. Die Leute dort nennen das Bächlein auch „Silberwasserl". Im kristallklaren Wasser soll ein silberglänzendes Fischlein herumschwimmen, das in seinem Körper ein Silberringlein stecken hat. Wer dieses Ringfischlein fängt, kann sich den Schatz in der Ruine Hauenstein holen.

The oldest café on the Ringstrasse. Spent three hours here, alone, without laptop(!), simply soaking up the atmosphere.

 

After a terrific meal of wienerschnitzel and potatoes, I savored a traditional Melange with apfelstrüdel. Other than a table of old Austrian ladies in the opposite corner, and the occasional visit by a black-tied, exceedingly polite waiter, I was the only one in the room. I was about to leave — as I normally would after finishing a meal — but the sky suddenly opened up a torrential downpour. "Hmm," I thought, "I guess I can have another drink." Ordered an Irish coffee. An American family came in from the famous opera house across the street and I listened to them discuss the performance, pretending I was a local taking in some English practice. The rain stopped. I sauntered out, completely content with my first Viennese café experience.

Feria Nacional de San Marcos. De Wikipedia, la enciclopedia libre

 

La Feria de San Marcos considerada como "la Feria de México" es el festejo popular más importante de la ciudad de Aguascalientes realizado en honor a San Marcos evangelista, santo patrono designado del barrio del mismo nombre. Es considerada una feria de importancia nacional en México y tiene un gran prestigio aún a nivel internacional. Se realiza en la ciudad de Aguascalientes, México, en el barrio de San Marcos. El día más importante dentro de la feria es el 25 de abril, que coincide con el día de San Marcos.

 

En un principio, la fiesta se encontraba íntimamente unida con la vendimia ya que Aguascalientes era un importante productor de uva. Sin embargo, esta tradición sobrevive sólo durante las corridas de toros, donde se toma vino tinto mezclado con brandy de las tradicionales botas.

 

Durante el periodo (abril-mayo, dos últimas semanas y dos primeras semanas, respectivamente) que dura esta festividad, la zona del festejo se convierte en escenario de eventos artísticos, culturales y sociales abiertos a todo el público. No se restringe el acceso general al público ya que la zona que forma gran parte del escenario es ahora muy céntrica y abarca una buena parte del centro histórico de la ciudad.

 

En 2010 empezará su internacionalización donde la feria se hermanará con las ferias mas importantes y de mayor prestigio como son la de Sevilla en España, Nimes, Francia; Pomona, California; y Calgary, Canadá.

 

Historia

Su celebración se remonta a 1828, del 20 de octubre al 20 de noviembre, para vender el producto de las cosechas y la ganadería. En aquel entonces competía con las ferias de Acapulco, Jalapa y San Juan de los Lagos.

 

Al comienzo era celebrada en el Parián (palabra de origen filipino) que es un centro comercial que todavía existe y se localiza a dos cuadras de la plaza principal, esto hasta 1848. En 1842 la balaustrada externa del Jardín de San Marcos, de estilo neoclásico, fue construida en un terreno donado por la Iglesia Católica y se conserva hasta hoy; al ser completado el jardín la celebración fue cambiada de noviembre a abril para coincidir con las fiestas en honor del Santo Patrono.

 

Desde 1924 se organiza un concurso de belleza para elegir a la Reina de la Feria. En 1958 la feria fue elevada al rango "Nacional" por el Presidente Adolfo López Mateos.

 

La construcción de la plaza de toros San Marcos comenzó en 1896 y fue terminada en sólo 48 días. Fue inaugurada por Juan Jimenez "El Ecijano" lidiando toros de la ganadería de Venadero el 24 de Abril de ese mismo año. Esta plaza es entre las que permanecen en pie, una de las más antiguas del país. Desde entonces las corridas de toros son incluidas en las festividades. Debido a la gran tradición taurina en Aguascalientes y al creciente afluente de visitantes a la feria, en los años 70 fue construida una de las más bellas plazas de toros del mundo, la Plaza Monumental de Aguascalientes, misma que amplió, en 1992, su cupo de 7,500 a 15,000 personas cómodamente sentadas.

 

En 2009, por 1era. vez en toda la historia de la Feria, fue suspendida después de solo diez días debido a la Pandemia de gripe A (H1N1) de 2009 que afectó al país. Esta eventualidad mostró claramente la gran importancia de esta feria para Aguascalientes, ya que la economía local se afecto notoriamente por dicha causa.

 

Actividades

Esta feria abarca desde la tercera semana de abril hasta la primera semana de mayo (tres o cuatro semanas, es variable cada año), y es famosa internacionalmente por su(s):

 

1. Serial taurino. En el cual es común que se presenten las máximas figuras del momento a nivel mundial.

2. Campeonato Nacional Charro, tradición del deporte nacional mexicano (la Charrería) organizado por la Unión de Asociaciones Charras de Aguascalientes, y que en este 2011 se llevará a cabo del 5 al 8 de Mayo en la Villa Charra "José Refugio Esparza Reyes" de la capital.

The Queen of Romania is a descendant of the prince of Moldavia (Jeremy Movila) via Maria Leczynska Queen of Louis XV of France and through their descendants to the Bourbob-Parme branch of the French and Danish Royal Families.

Prince Ieremia Movila was a great patron of the arts and founder of the painted convents of Bucovina. During his reign the principality of Moldavia experienced a renaissance of its decorative arts, especially the post-byzantine style religious embroideries.

--------------------

Regina Ana, Printesa de Danemarca si de Bourbon-Parma se trage, asa cum spune numele din Bourboni,

mai precis din ramura spaniola a Bourbonilor care erau si Duci de Parma.

Pornind pe linie directa ascendenta a familiei de Bourbon-Parma, deci pe linie barbateasca ,ajungem la Ferdinand I de Bourbon, Duce de Parma (1751-1802) nepotul Lui Filip V regele Spaniei si Duce de Anjou (1683, Versailles - 1746 Madrid).

Acest Ferdinand I Infante de Spania (1751-1802),care preceda cu sase generatii pe Ana de Bourbon-Parma a noastra [sper si a domniei tale] ) era casatorit cu printesa Louise Elisabeth de France (1727-1759), fiica lui Ludovic al XV regele Frantei si a sotiei lui Maria Leczynska ( 1703-1768) regina Frantei, care la randul ei era fiica lui Stanislas Lesczynski regele Poloniei si Duce de Lorena (1677-1766).

Acum, ca sa ajungem la Movilesti trebuie sa trecem pe ramurile femeiesti:

Bunica materna a lui Stanislas Lesczinski (socrul lui Ludovic XV) era Maria Ana Printesa Jabolonowska (1643-1687) nascuta contesa Kasanowska, iar bunica materna a acesteia din urma era Domnita Maria Movila ( 1591-1638) (fata lui Ieremia Voda), domnita moldoveanca al carui sot era Contele Stefan Potocki, Palatin de Wroclaw si prin care casatorie era cunoscuta in Polonia drept Marya Mohylanka.

Aceasta inseamna, bine inteles, ca prin stramosii ei Movilesti, Regina Ana de Romania se trage, prin Iermia Voda Movila, chiar din Petru Rares si din Stefan cel Mare si Sfant, iar prin acesta din urma din Dragos Voda primul descalecator al Moldovei.

 

Despre domnita Maria Movila contesa Potocka ne vorbeste istoricul Constantin GANE (1885-1962) in celebra lui lucrare "Trecute Vieti de Doamne si Domnite".

NOTE:

Most of the above 160 Romanian women, in the best tradition of versatility, are true polymaths and therefore nearly each one of them falls in more than just one category, often three or more. This explains why adding the numbers of the 57 individual categories bears no relation to the actual total of the above 160 women included in Blouse Roumaine.

Former Bergh Apton parish councillors John Ling and Chris Johnson have done a great amount of research on the memorial, and through their diligent efforts have succeeded in adding additional names to the memorial. Much of their work is recorded at the Roll of Honour site for this village, the current page of which predates some of the latest additions to the memorial.

 

I apologise for both shamelessly cribbing from the Roll of Honour and not ensuring that all the names were captured.

*******************************************************************

Walter Alexander

 

(Roll of Honour Walter Earnest Alexander)

Lance Corporal 1st Battalion, Royal Newfoundland Regiment.

Walter emigrated to Canada at some point before 1914 and signed on at St Johns, Newfoundland on 30 April 1915 when living in Boswarlos on the island’s West coast. He was wounded by shell shrapnel on 2 July (the second day of the First Battle of the Somme) and died of his wounds in a Casualty Clearing Station. He died on 5 July 1916, aged 24 and is buried at Beauval, near Amiens.

His parents Robert and Annie Alexander lived at Verandah Cottages on Cooke’s Road until shortly before Walter died, and ended their days at Holly Hill on Sunnyside.

 

www.cwgc.org/search/casualty_details.aspx?casualty=34902

 

A photo of Walter Alexander can be seen here

norlink.norfolk.gov.uk/02_Catalogue/02_013_PictureTitleIn...

 

Norlink notes:Lance Corporal Alexander was born at Sunnyside, Bergh Apton, 23rd October 1891. He was educated at Bergh Apton and enlisted in February 1915. He was wounded at the Battle of the Somme, 1st July 1916 and died from wounds, 5th July 1916.

 

This was doubly sad, as the Regiment had all but been wiped out, in the space of 30 minutes on the 1st of July. By the end of the 1st July, only 68 men responded to roll-call.

 

www.heritage.nf.ca/greatwar/articles/somme.html

 

Strangely, there is no match on the Canadian National Archive under this name or service number.

 

The 1901 Census has a Walter Alexander born 1892 Bergh Apton and still resident there. There was also a Harry Alexander born 1892 (possibly a twin?), Edith born 1895, Ethel born 1898 and a Mabel born 1900.

 

*******************************************************************

Arthur James Annis

Roll of Honour Arthur William

[Recorded on the memorial as Arthur James ANNIS] Private 7th Battalion, East Yorkshire Regiment.

Arthur was the son of Samuel and Rosetta Annis of The Street, Bergh Apton. He was wounded in the Fricourt/Mametz sector during the first Battle of the Somme and died aged 34 on 24 July 1916. The fact that he is buried in Rouen’s St Sever cemetery indicates that he died of his wounds in one of the base hospitals around Rouen and Etaples.

The war memorial gives his name as Arthur James but that is an error. The confusion in name may have related to the fact that he had a brother James who had been a policemen before 1914. James survived the war in which he served with the Royal Flying Corps and rejoined the Metropolitan Police before returning to Bergh Apton as a market gardener, a business carried on by his son Peter.

 

www.cwgc.org/search/casualty_details.aspx?casualty=513837

 

No match on Norlink

 

The 1901 Census has James Annis as born at Bergh Apton in 1891, while Arthur was born there in 1882, but by the time of the census was working as a Turner in Birmingham.

***************************************************************

Robert George Beaumont

Roll of Honour

Private 22nd Battalion, the Manchester Regiment.

Robert died, aged 29, on 4th October 1917 but his body was never recovered. His name is on the Tyne Cot Memorial at Zonnebeke in Belgium. He was the son of Robert and Jane Beaumont of Sunnyside, Bergh Apton and husband of Ellen who lived at 2, Kimberley St, Norwich.

Robert died on the first day of an action known as ‘The Battle of Brooseinde’. The Manchesters suffered very heavy casualties there, losing 281 men of all ranks killed, missing or wounded in the fighting.

John Alfred Boggis

Roll of Honour John Alfred Boggis MM

Corporal 9th Battalion, the Norfolk Regiment.

Alfred died aged 37 on 8 October 1918, only a month before the end of the war. He is buried in Prospect Hill Cemetery at Gouy near Cambrai, having been moved there from Brancourt le Grand where he was originally interred.

In a letter to his widow Rosa the Chaplain of the 9th Norfolks wrote ‘I am just writing to express my deep sympathy for you in the death of your husband in action on Oct 8th. . . . . . He was thought very highly of in this Battalion and I am glad to think of him as one of my friends for a long time’.

At the age of 37 Alfred John Boggis was a mature man, and one of already-proven bravery by the award of the Military Medal. One senses from the Padre’s letter that he had attributes of steadiness and loyalty that must have been a great help to many younger soldiers in their teens and early twenties who served with him.

He was the son of Alfred and Sabina Boggis of Yelverton and was married to Rosa. He had three children, Alfred, Herbert and Ivy.

Charles W W Bracey

Roll of Honour:Walter Wilfred

[Listed on memorial as Charles W W BRACEY] Royal Navy Reserve

The Eastern Daily Press of 24 September 1914 carried a report on Bergh Apton’s Harvest Festival. It included the fact that that the Rector, H W G Thursby, gave the condolences of the village to Mr Bracey on the death of his son who was the first Bergh Apton man to die in the war.

He was nineteen and was serving on the trawler “Eyrie” when she sailed as part of a minesweeping flotilla to clear a German minefield laid in the Humber at the very start of the First World War. The ship sank when a mine hit it on 2 September 1914. It was less than a month after Britain entered the war on 4 August.

His name of the war memorial is given as Charles W W Bracey but that is an error. He was the son of Frederick Bracey, later of Claxton. Walter’s name is on the Royal Navy memorial at Chatham in Kent.

26th September 1915 - the 2nd day of the battle of loos.

 

8.00am approx. The units of 21st and 24th Divisions had moved with great difficulty throughout the night, and had reached the advanced positions facing the enemy's second line, around Bois Hugo, Chalk Pit Wood, Chalet Wood and Hill 70 Redoubt. They were informed that a general attack had been ordered for 11.00am. First Army believed they had halted as ordered on the Lens-La Bassee road, and had been resting for some time.

 

1.00am A heavy attack by the German 117th Division was launched against the forward units of 7th and 9th Divisions between the Vermelles-Hulluch road and Fosse 8. It achieved complete surprise, catching wiring parties and isolated sections unawares. On the right, 20th Brigade pulled all advanced units back to the protection of Gun Trench. In the centre, the most forward units were in a shallow trench a hundred yards ahead of the Quarries. Their left had no contact with the 27th Brigade of 9th Division, which was somewhere away on their left. A reorganisation of scattered and mixed-up units was underway - under shellfire that included gas shells - when the German attack hit. The enemy entered the Quarries through the undefended gap to the North, and much confused and hand to hand fighting took place. By 1.30am the British troops had lost the Quarries. Further advance was halted by concentrated fire from the 2/Yorkshire and 1/South Staffordshire. 27th Brigade - who lost their CO, Brig-General Bruce, captured in the Quarries - withdrew from Fosse Alley in good order. A hastily arranged counterattack with the intention of retaking the Quarries was delivered at 6.45am by the dog-tired 9/Norfolks of 24th Division, but it was annihilated by consolidated enemy infantry

Grave/Memorial Reference: 274. Cemetery: KIRECHKOI-HORTAKOI MILITARY CEMETERY

 

Historical information about the cemetery

 

XVI Corps Headquarters were at Kirechkoi from January 1916, soon after the opening of the Salonika campaign, until the advance to the Struma in September 1916. The cemetery was begun in March 1916, but it remained a very small one until September 1917, when the 60th, 65th and 66th General Hospitals came to the neighbourhood. In June, July and September 1918, other hospitals were brought to the high and healthy country beside the Salonika-Hortakoi road and in September 1918, the influenza epidemic began which raged for three months and filled three-quarters of the cemetery. The last burial took place in January 1919, but in 1937, 12 graves were brought into the cemetery from Salonika Protestant Cemetery where their permanent maintenance could not be assured. The cemetery now contains 588 Commonwealth burials of the First World War and 58 Bulgarian war graves. There are also 17 burials from the Second World War.

Victor Gillingwater

Roll of Honour: Victor George

Private 1st Battalion, Royal Marines Light Infantry (RMLI)

Victor died aged 20 on 17 February 1917 and is buried in Queen’s Cemetery, Bucquoy, near Arras, only a few kilometres from a sunken road between Grandcourt and Miraumont in which he died as part of an action included in a report to Parliament by General Douglas Haig in May of that year. Sixty-four Marines were killed.

On enlistment Gillingwater gave his address as Bussey Bridge, Bergh Apton. The discovery of an RMLI collar badge in the garden of a cottage at Bussey Bridge in 2003 gives us confidence that we have found his home and that of his parents George and Mary Gillingwater.

Private 1st Battalion, Coldstream Guards.

Henry was killed aged 24 on 27 March 1916, only twenty-six days after his brother Charles died in Iraq. He is buried in the Menin Road South Cemetery at Ypres in Belgium.

Henry was baptised in Bergh Apton 13 March 1890, the only one of Hannah Greenacre’s six children to be born in her native village. His wife Louisa (née Keeler) was living in Brooke when he was killed but on the Electoral Roll of 1939 she is recorded as living with her parents at the Hellington Bell public house in Bergh Apton where her father was landlord. She is buried in Bergh Apton’s churchyard.

Charles W Greenacre

Roll of Honour:Charles William

Private 2nd Battalion, the Norfolk Regiment.

The date of Charles Greenacre’s death is given as 22 April 1916. At that time the Norfolk’s 2nd Battalion was part of Major General Charles Townsend’s force besieged by the Turks at Kut al Amara. Charles may have died of starvation or disease during last week of the siege that ended on 29th April 1916. It was, after Gallipoli, Britain’s second greatest WW1 military disaster.

There is, however, a second possibility, involving a British force sent to relieve Kut. It included a unit nicknamed ‘The Norsets’ (comprising men of both the Norfolk and Dorset Regiments) and he may well have been a part of that unit that came up against the Turks at Sanniyat on the River Tigris. In the ensuing action, on the day he is reported to have been killed, the Norsets lost forty four men and he may well have been amongst them.

 

The whole attack failed, and its failure led directly to Townsend’s decision to surrender the Kut garrison to General Khalil Pasha.

He is remembered on the British War Memorial in Iraq, originally erected in Basrah, but moved to Al Nasiriyah in 1997 on the orders of the Iraqi government. It was badly damaged in the more recent conflict but has now been restored and re-dedicated.

Charles was born in Westwick in north Norfolk but his mother Hannah (née Loyd) was a Bergh Apton girl who had returned to her native village by the time of Charles’s death. She and her husband William and family lived at 4, Sunnyside.

Charles’s brother Henry (q.v. below) was also killed in this war

Sidney was killed, aged 21, on Saturday, 8th July 1916. His body was never found and he is remembered on the Thiepval Memorial.

We can at present find no village connection to explain why he is on the memorial in Bergh Apton but there is only one man of this name in the entire Commonwealth War Graves Commission record for the First World War so it is likely to be him.

A man of the right age was born in Eynsford in Kent whose father Richard Kedge was a farm labourer and his work might have brought him to Bergh Apton. We shall keep searching for the reason amongst the records.

Ernest had emigrated to Australia in 1912 and enlisted in the Australian infantry on 24 January 1916 in Bunberry. He died on 16 April 1917 but his body was never recovered. He is remembered on the impressive Australian Memorial at Villers-Bretonneux near Amiens.

We have no record of precisely how he died but many men in his battalion died that day in a fierce fight at the village of Lagnicourt in which they ran out of ammunition, and where Lieutenant Charles Pope was awarded a posthumous Victoria Cross.

His enlistment papers tell us that his brother farmed at Town Farm and his mother Sophia Maria Leeder farmed at the neighbouring Valley Farm on Welbeck Road. She had lost her husband Edmund only the year before she lost this son.

As well as being remembered on Bergh Apton’s own memorial Ernest’s name is included on the memorial in the park at Donnybrook in Western Australia, and on the Roll of Honour in the town’s Memorial Hall.

Sidney Herbert Marks

Roll of Honour

probably Sidney Herbert Marks, Private 1st Bn, The Essex Regiment

It is not yet proven, but we are confident that this is the man recorded on our Memorial. He was killed on 8 October 1917 and that date fits with an entry in Bergh Apton parish church’s Register of Services that records a memorial service held for Private S Marks on 2 December 1917. The very fact that a memorial service was held for him also suggests that he had a close connection in some way with the village.

The Commonwealth War Graves Commission records that his wife lived in Norwich, only six miles away, so the next step in research will begin there.

The CWGC record also says that he was ‘employed by the late Captain Lord Richard Wellesley of the Grenadier Guards’ (who had died on 29 October 1914). This intriguing note may give us something else to go on in further researches into Sidney, one of only two people who remain a complete mystery to us.

Private 7th Battalion the Norfolk Regiment.

Harry was killed 1 October 1915 but his body was never found. His name is on the Loos Memorial at Lens in the Pas de Calais (the spot known as ‘Dud Corner’). Army records have only one soldier of this name killed so we are confident that this is the man on our Memorial, but we have yet to find detail of his particular part of the widespread Mayes family that lived in the village.

By sad co-incidence, when researching his details in the Records Office, we noticed that his birth was recorded on the same page of the Registry of Births as that of Walter Wilfred Bracey (q.v.) who had been killed in 1914.

 

There are actually numerous H Mayes on the CWGC website, but no Harry Samuel.

Most of the 2nd Battalion were trapped during the siege of Kut, and following the surrender of that garrison endured what was tantamount to a death march. It is estimated that over 70% of the men taken prisoner at Kut died on the subsequent march or whilst in captivity.

Leonard Godfrey Rope

Roll of Honour

Private 31st Battalion, Canadian Infantry (the Alberta Regiment).

Alfred Rope’s brother Leonard was killed at St Eloi aged 27 on 7 April 1916 but his body was never found. He is remembered on the Menin Gate at Ypres in Belgium.

His parents Aaron and Ellen Alice Rope farmed at Holly Farm on Loddon Road. He enlisted as a volunteer in Calgary Alberta on 8 April 1915 - his 27th birthday but we have few details of his travels between Bergh Apton and western Canada except that he left this village in about 1912.

He joined the 31st Battalion (Alberta Regiment), part of the Canadian Army’s 5th Brigade that became known as the “Iron Fifth” for its exploits under the command of Lt Colonel (later Brigadier General) Ketchen.

His death may well have occurred in an event recorded by G E Hewitt in his book ‘History of 28th Battalion’ (Charles and Son, London) that records the war of one of the the 31st’s sister battalions:

‘April 7, 1916. An attack was made during the night of April 6 - 7 on craters 4 & 5 by bombing parties from 25th, 28th and 31st Battalions led by Lt Murphy of 25th Battalion. They reported that, despite heavy rain and shellfire, they got quite close to the craters before being repulsed. In fact, they lost their way in the dark and occupied a group of craters north of crater 4 and, though they captured several small German patrols, they had failed to even identify their objective correctly’.

Hewitt goes on to say ‘The following night, April 7 - 8, the 6th Brigade was relieved after suffering 617 casualties in the preceding four days of fighting’.

It is probable that Leonard was amongst the 617 men who died in the fighting in one of those raiding parties. It had been the eve of his twenty-eighth birthday.

In a separate letter the medical officer explains that the R.A.P (for Emergency treatment) at VOORMEZEELE was shared with the 28th and 29th battalions, and was manned by the medical officers from those battalions. Most of the wounded from the 31st battalion were in the trench sector adjoining those battalions, and so went to Voormezeele rather than through his post.

 

“6th April 1916.

2-k All wounded in Aid Post cleared.

3-30k A most terrific concentrated enemy bombardment is taking place on our position in front of and about ST ELOI, using trench torpedoes and shells of all kinds and sizes. Hundreds of shells must be bursting every minute. We must expect heavy casualties, especially by way of VOORMEZEELE. Bombardment contiues all day from both sides. Wounded coming in tell of German Infantry attack being repulsed on our battalion front, but enemy is reported to be in crater to right of our front.

We dress and send out wounded all morning and afternoon, practicaly all walking cases.

Stretcher bearer Avery comes in with Shell wound in back. Avery dressed wounded continuously for forty eight hours under shell fire and carried on for some time after being hit.

Capt MacPherson is wounded by bomb and is sent out.

Cases of shattered nerves are coming in. The worst of these I send to Field Ambulance, but the majority I allow to lie down in an adjoining dugout. There are only half dozen cases. Some men that have been buried by shells I also keep at R.A.P dugout.

18-k Bombardment has died down. Many dead and wounded are reported from front line.

70 bearers from No.6 Field Ambulance are to help clear wounded from right section towards Voormezeele after dark.

“C” Coy, holding centre of our Battalion front reports several badly wounded men.

20-k I leave Battalion Headquarters, with Major Hewgill and Corporal Bright and a party of men, for the front line, to bring out wounded.

21-k to 24 - k. I redress a number of wounded men in front line, among them Sergeant Proven with a bad compound fracture of the thigh.

Front trenches here are pretty well battered to pieces. Raining hard.

 

7th April 1916.

5k Last wounded men just cleared to Field Ambulance.

11-k Morning has been fairly quiet after uproar of yesterday, but there is still considerable artillery firing.

A number are coming in with chilled, sodden feet. They are chiefly men of “A” Company who were in mud and water for forty eight hours in crater before being relieved by “D” Coy. We have them wash their feet in cold water, dry and apply whale from a can found in shelled dugout. We supply dry socks when possible.

Corporal dace, Sanitary NCO, is given a squad of partially recovered nerve cases and starts in to clean up about R.A.P, and Battn Headquarters.

17-k. Another furious enemy bombardment of one hour duration on our right section. Battalion expect to be relieved tonight by 19th Battalion”

Alfred Hubert Rope

Roll of Honour

Private Royal Marines Light Infantry (RMLI)

Alfred Rope died aged 23 on 5 May 1917. He is one of 10,769 soldiers buried in Etaples Military Cemetery close to the British Expeditionary Force’s main base that included a military hospital complex where, even ten months after the final Armistice in September 1919, three hospitals and a QMAAC convalescent depot remained to treat men seriously wounded in battle.

Alfred Rope was the one of the two sons of Aaron and Ellen Alice Rope of Holly Farm on Loddon Road, both of whom was to be killed within a little over a year.

His Birth Certificate records him as Alfred Hubert and in the 1901 Census he is listed as Herbert, but his CWGC record has him as Hubert Alfred. We can be confident that he was called Hubert in the village as it was that name entered in the church service record by the Reverend Harvey Thursby after his Memorial service on 8 June 1917.

He volunteered for the Royal Marines on exactly the same date and at the same London recruiting office as his near-neighbour Victor Gillingwater (q.v.). Even their service numbers are consecutive. Victor lived at Bussey Bridge – literally a few hundred yards from the Rope farmstead, and it seems clear that these boys were friends who went to London together to enlist for the great adventure, and died within a month of each other in 1917.

 

CWGC lists as Hubert Alfred

Aubrey Samuel Stone

Roll of Honour

Lance Corporal 9th Battalion, the Norfolk Regiment.

Aubrey was killed on 17 September 1916 but his body was never recovered and he is remembered on the Thiepval Memorial together with Sidney Kedge (q.v.).

Commonwealth War Graves Commission records do not include his next-of-kin but he was the son of John and Mary Stone of The Street in Bergh Apton, and he was one of eleven children. His mother’s maiden name was Bracey so he may also have been related to Walter Wilfred Bracey (q.v.). Aubrey’s nephew John Clemence still lives at Davy Place in Loddon

Clement Sidney Wall

Roll of Honour

Private 8th Battalion the Norfolk Regiment.

Clement had three other brothers who all fought in the Great War and survived. He was killed aged 29 on 11 August 1917 and is buried in the Railway Ground at Zillebeke near Ypres.

He was the son of Leonard and Anna Maria Wall of The Street in Bergh Apton, and uncle to Joy Lester of this village, Anna Stratton of Thurton and to Olive Hudson of Harleston. His parents and his sister Lily Scarles are buried in Bergh Apton churchyard.

Clement worked for Mr Redgrave the builder of The Beeches in Threadneedle Street. His niece Anna Stratton told us that he was a runner of some repute who would often pay small children a half-penny or a penny to time him on training runs. On one occasion he ran to Denton to take part in a race, won the race, and ran home again. The round-trip distance he ran just to take part was over thirty-six miles!

We have no details yet of his family but his birth is recorded in the Norwich register for the June Quarter of 1895. When we check that it may link him to Annie Weddup who lived in The Street in Bergh Apton at the beginning of the war.

Roll of Honour

Sergeant 75th (RNZAF) Squadron, RAF Volunteer Reserve

Jack was killed aged 21 on Monday, 16 August 1943 on a raid over the Gironde Estuary (Bay of Biscay) where his aircraft was lost. His body was never found and he is remembered on the RAF Memorial at Runnymede.

He was an Air Gunner, trained in Canada and part of a Squadron of which the original nucleus was Wellington bombers contributed by the New Zealand government and flown by Kiwis. His own crew, flying in a Short Stirling bomber and engaged on a mine-laying (‘gardening’) mission, was flown and navigated by New Zealanders and had a Canadian bomb aimer. Jack was the rear gunner.

He was the son of Arthur and Ethel Lovewell who ran the village shop on Threadneedle Street and owned much of the land around the crossroads where Threadneedle Street and Mill Road meet in Bergh Apton. They are buried in our churchyard but his brother Brian, at the time of writing (August 2005) is still alive and living in Lincolnshire.

Archibald Mayes

Roll of Honour

Leading Seaman, Royal Navy.

Archie died on 19 Feb 1941 while serving in HMS Warspite in the Mediterranean. We have been told by the son of a shipmate that he was the victim of an infection rather than injury. He is buried in Ramla (formerly Ralmeh) War Cemetery in Palestine, 12 kilometres south-east of Jaffa. We understand - and hope - that this is a different place from the Rameleh where so much destruction has taken place in recent fighting.

Archie was the brother of Jack Mayes (q.v.) who died later that year. His family lived at Prospect Place in Bergh Apton, on the A146 between Norwich and Lowestoft.

la construction des Autoroutes en France - Les liaisons moins dangereuses 1972 www.dailymotion.com/video/xxi0ae?playlist=x34ije - Ministère de l'Équipement et de l'Aménagement du Territoire - Dotation par la France d'autoroutes modernes "nécessité vitale" pour palier à l'inadaptation du réseau routier de l'époque voué à la paralysie : le reportage nous montre des images d'embouteillages. Le ministre de l'Équipement et de l'Aménagement du Territoire dans les deux gouvernements de Pierre Messmer, de 1972 à 1974, Olivier Guichard explique les ambitions du programme de construction qui doit atteindre 800 km par ans en 1978. L'ouverture de section nouvelles va bon train : Nancy / Metz par exemple. Le reportage nous montre l'intérieur des bureaux d'études qui conçoivent ces autoroute dont la conception est assistée par ordinateurs dont le projet d'ensemble en 3D est visualisé sur un écran. La voix off nous informe sur le financement de ces équipements. Puis on peut voir des images de la construction du pont sur la Seine à Saint Cloud reliant l'autoroute de Normandie au périphérique, de l'échangeur de Palaiseau sur 4 niveau : record d'Europe précise le commentaire. Le reportage nous informe que des sociétés d'économies mixtes ont étés crées pour les tronçons : Paris / Lille, Paris / Marseille, Paris / Normandie. Pour accélérer la construction l’État a eu recours à des concessions privées par exemple pour le tronçon Paris / Chartres. "Les autoroutes changent le visage de la France : artères économiques favorisant le développement industriel elles permettent de revitaliser des régions en perte de vitesse et de l'intégrer dans le mouvement général de l'expansion" Sur le plan européen elles vont combler le retard de la France et réaliser son insertion. Images de l'inauguration de l'autoroute entre Paris et Bruxelles par le président Georges Pompidou. Le reportage rappel que l'autre fonction capitale des autoroute est de favoriser la sécurité. La question de la limitation de vitesse est posée au ministre de l’Équipement, qui n'y est favorable que sur certains tronçons. Un des facteur de sécurité selon le commentaire est l'humanisation des autoroutes : aires de repos, restaurants, signalisation touristiques... "Rien n'est impossible aux techniques modernes" nous apprend la voix off qui prend comme exemple le déplacement sur rail de 65 mètres d'un château classé afin de faire passer l'autoroute Lille / Dunkerque.Durée : 4 minutes 30 secondes

Sur les routes de France les ponts renaissent 1945 reconstruction de la France après la Seconde Guerre mondiale www.dailymotion.com/video/xuxrii?playlist=x34ije , Quelques mois après la fin de la Seconde Guerre mondiale, un triste constat s'impose : 5 944 passages sont coupés, soit plus de 110 km de brèches ; de nombreuses villes se trouvent isolées.Les chantiers s'activent dans toute la France pour "gagner la bataille des communications routières". Mais outre la pénurie de main d’œuvre, il faut faire face au manque de matériaux (béton, métal) et donc déployer des trésors d'imagination pour reconstruire les ponts détruits. Si le savoir faire des tailleurs de pierre est exploité, le plus spectaculaire est le relevage des ponts, comme le pont de Galliéni à Lyon, où 7 à 800 tonnes d'acier sont sorti de l'eau avec des moyens de l'époque. En avril 1945, il reste 5 700 ponts à reconstruire soit 200 000 tonnes d'acier, 600 000 tonnes de ciment, 250 000 m3 de bois, 10 millions de journées d'ouvrier, prix de l'effort de reconstruction.1945

Dans le même esprit à Gien, au trois quart détruite en 1940, seul le château construit en 1494 pour Anne de Beaujeu, fille aînée de Louis XI, fut épargné par les bombardements. La ville fut reconstruite dans le style des rares immeubles restant. Gien est relevé de ses ruines et le nouvel ensemble harmonieux est appelé « Joyau de la Reconstruction française ».

El nuevo modelo de examen de Historia del Arte que rige la Selectividad Andaluza desde el curso 2012 – 2013 cuenta ya con tres ediciones que suponen diecisiete propuestas de examen de las cuales seis llegaron a ser escogidas como exámenes titulares. Debían ser dieciocho, pero una de las pruebas del curso 2014 – 2015 nunca llegó a ser publicada. Por otra parte desconocemos si algunas (o todas) las pruebas destinadas a exámenes de reservas se quedaron en eso o fueron efectivamente empleadas como exámenes para los alumnos con coincidencia horaria o que realizaron la prueba en otra fecha (debido a motivo de salud u otras justificaciones).

 

En cualquier caso nos encontramos con un juego de 68 cuestiones y otras tantas imágenes, Teniendo en cuentas que muchas de ellas se repiten, el conjunto queda reducido a 27 preguntas y 48 obras de arte. Llamaríamos a este repertorio «inventario», pero más bien merece el apelativo de «autopsia», pues el este modelo de examen se despide en el presente curso 2015-2016 con sólo cuatro años de rodaje. Con todo, tal vez subsista como modelo de transición para los alumnos que hayan cursado el actual modelo de bachillerato y se presenten a futuras pruebas. Algo así pasó con los alumnos del COU entre los años 2001 y 2003.

 

Pero volviendo al análisis de los juegos de exámenes de los últimos tres años, habrá que empezar por el diseño de esta prueba. Y advertir que el modelo que lo organiza no aparece descrito como tal en las directrices y orientaciones de la asignatura (al igual que el que sustituyó y que se venía aplicando desde el curso 2006-2007). En ambos casos se trata de acuerdos tomados por la ponencia y que se renovaban cada años.

 

Si la selección de contenidos cambia, el modelo de examen ha venido mantenido el mismo formato. Consta de dos opciones: «A» y «B», de las cuales el alumno desarrollará una. En cada una de ellas habrá de contestar obligatoriamente al comentario de dos láminas y a dos preguntas del programa.

 

En el modelo iniciado en el curso 2012-2013 el reparto se realizaba de la siguiente manera:

 

La Opción A: contiene dos cuestiones teóricas y dos ilustraciones para clasificar y comentar. Tantos las primeras como las segundas procederán de la parte del temario comprendida entre las Arte Prehistórico) y Arte Gótico, ambos inclusive.

 

La Opción B: contiene dos cuestiones teóricas y dos ilustraciones para clasificar y comentar. Tantos las primeras como las segundas procederán de la parte del temario comprendida entre el Arte Renacentista y el Arte del siglo XX), ambos inclusive. O sea que versará exclusivamente sobre el Arte Moderno y el Arte Contemporáneo.

 

Como ya sucedía en el anterior diseño de examen, no se incorporarán contenidos ni del Arte Ibérico ni del Arte Mudéjar.

 

El anterior modelo de examen estuvo vigente entre los cursos 2006-2007 y 2012-2012. En este período se organizaban los contenidos de la siguiente forma:

 

- La opción «A» constaba de dos preguntas y dos comentarios de lámina de Historia del Arte procedentes del Arte Prehistórico, el Arte Egipcio, el Arte Griego, el Arte Romano, el Arte Paleocristiano, el Arte Bizantino (estos dos comparten un único tema), el Arte Musulmán, el Arte Románico, el Arte Gótico, el Arte Renacentista y el Arte Barroco.

 

- La opción «B» constaba de dos preguntas y dos comentarios de lámina de Historia del Arte procedentes del Arte Musulmán, el Arte Románico, el Arte Gótico, el Arte Renacentista, el Arte Barroco, el Arte Neoclásico, el Arte del Siglo XIX y el Arte del Siglo XX.

 

Por tanto en cualquiera de las dos opciones, y esa es la gran diferencia con el modelo de 2013, podrían ser escogidos el Arte Musulmán, el Arte Románico, el Arte Gótico, el Arte Renacentista y el Arte Barroco. En la práctica, esta situación de privilegio se tradujo en una preponderancia absoluta del Renacimiento y del Barroco.

 

Cabría esperar, por tanto, que el cambio de diseño supondría una mayor presencia de los estilos anteriormente relegados (El prehistórico, el egipcio, el griego, el romano, el paleocristiano-bizantino, el neoclásico, el decimonónico y el novocentista). Pero esta alternativa no se produjo, por lo que se ha mantenido una continuidad absoluta que ha borrado cualquier impresión de barrera entre un modelo y otro.

 

Así, si bien es cierto que el arte prehistórico y la pintura del siglo XIX van ganando en protagonismo, lo cierto es que estas tendencias se iniciaron antes del curso 2012-2013. Además el Renacimiento y el Barroco han seguido manteniendo su posición preponderante. En fin, si se observa el ranquin de preguntas y obras de arte que incluimos al final, no se observarán diferencias significativas entre las que gozaban de preferencias antes de 2013.

 

Por señalar algunas tendencias propias de este último período puede apuntarse en la opción «A» el ascenso imparable del paleocristiano y del bizantino, la caída en picado de la mezquita de Córdoba (como imagen a comentar) y el auge de la pintura ítalo-gótica. En la opción «B» los contenidos que han sido escogidos en más ocasiones han sido Bernini (tanto arquitecto como escultor y tanto en pregunta como en comentarios), Goya (como pregunta o como comentario), Delacroix y la pintura del siglo XIX y, como obvio comentario, la Villa Saboya de Le Corbusier.

La persecuzione e la sofferenza mi hanno fatto amare Dio ancora di più

  

di Liu Zhen, provincia dello Shandong

 

Mi chiamo Liu Zhen. Ho 78 anni, e sono una semplice cristiana della Chiesa di Dio Onnipotente. Sono grata a Dio Onnipotente per avere scelto me, una donna anziana di un villaggio rurale, niente di speciale agli occhi del mondo. Dopo che ho accettato l’opera di Dio Onnipotente degli ultimi giorni, ho pregato Dio quotidianamente, ho ascoltato letture della parola di Dio, ho partecipato a incontri e sono stata in comunione con i miei fratelli e le mie sorelle; gradualmente, ho cominciato a capire alcune verità e ad avere una comprensione chiara di certe cose. Mi sentivo piena di gioia, e vivevo con una felicità che non avevo mai provato prima. Dato che sono anziana e ho difficoltà a camminare, non ero in grado di uscire di casa per andare agli incontri della Chiesa; quindi, preoccupati per me, i miei fratelli e sorelle si riunivano a casa mia. Non mancavano mai un incontro, nel gelo dell’inverno o nell’arsura dell’estate; né il vento, né la pioggia, né la neve hanno mai impedito loro di venirmi a trovare e di aver cura di me, una semplice donna anziana. In particolare, quando leggevamo la parola di Dio, se c’era qualcosa che non capivo, lo condividevano sempre con me con pazienza, senza mai ignorarmi né guardarmi dall’alto in basso. Ne ero profondamente commossa perché, se non fosse stato per l’amore di Dio, chi mai mi avrebbe mostrato tanta pazienza e tanto affetto? Nelle mie interazioni con i miei fratelli e sorelle, ho notato che erano molto differenti dai laici. Quello che vivevano era tolleranza e amore, erano in grado di aprire i loro cuori e di trattarsi l’un l’altro con sincerità, senza barriere né distanze tra loro. Erano uniti come una famiglia, e questo mi ha resa ancora più certa riguardo all’opera di Dio Onnipotente. Man mano che comprendevo nuove verità, mi sono resa conto che avrei dovuto compiere il mio dovere in quanto essere creato, quindi ho detto alla Chiesa che avevo intenzione di assumermi qualche responsabilità. Tuttavia, poiché la mia età mi impediva di assolvere la maggior parte delle funzioni, la Chiesa mi ha incaricata di svolgere la funzione di ospite a casa mia. Ho accettato, grata a Dio per avermi assegnato un compito adeguato alle mie capacità. Così, andavo molto d’accordo con i miei fratelli e le mie sorelle e provavo una grande sensazione di sollievo sia nel corpo che nella mente. Anche alcune malattie delle quali soffrivo hanno cominciato a migliorare, quindi ero ancora più grata a Dio Onnipotente per la Sua grazia e la Sua misericordia.

 

Tuttavia, i tempi felici non sono durati a lungo, poiché io e i miei fratelli e le mie sorelle del villaggio siamo stati denunciati da un malvagio. I miei fratelli e le mie sorelle sono stati tutti arrestati dalla polizia, che ha ordinato al segretario di partito del villaggio di portare anche me alla stazione di polizia. Giunta lì, la polizia mi ha chiesto: “Come sei giunta a credere in Dio? Perché credi in Dio?”. Ho risposto: “Credere in Dio è un principio immutabile. Leggendo la parola di Dio ogni giorno possiamo comprendere molte verità, essere brave persone secondo la Sua parola e seguire il giusto cammino nella vita. Chi crede in Dio non picchia né insulta altre persone, e obbedisce sempre alla legge. Quindi, cosa c’è di sbagliato nel credere in Dio? Perché ci arrestate?” L’agente mi ha guardata con disprezzo e mi ha chiesto in modo sgarbato: “Chi ti ha predicato il Vangelo? C’è qualcun altro nella tua famiglia che è credente?” Ho detto che ero l’unica nella mia famiglia a essere credente. Si sono resi conto che non avrebbero ottenuto alcuna informazione da me, quindi mi hanno rilasciata quel giorno stesso. Dopo essere andata via, mi sono chiesta perché la polizia mi avesse lasciata andare con tanta facilità. Solo una volta tornata a casa ho appreso che, quando i miei familiari avevano scoperto che ero stata portata alla stazione di polizia, avevano usato i loro contatti e versato la somma di 3.000 Yuan perché fossi rilasciata. Ma la polizia stava ancora seminando il disaccordo tra me e la mia famiglia, poiché aveva chiesto loro di impedirmi di credere in Dio. Mia nuora ha litigato con mio figlio per questo, e ha minacciato di suicidarsi bevendo del pesticida se avessi continuato a credere in Dio. È a questo punto che mi sono resa conto che la polizia del Partito Comunista Cinese è marcia fino al midollo. Avevo una famiglia perfettamente pacifica, e loro avevano agitato tanto le acque che adesso eravamo come cane e gatto! Io credevo nell’unico vero Dio che ha creato ogni cosa in cielo e in terra, e oggi Dio Onnipotente è venuto a salvarci chiedendoci di capire la verità, di vivere a sembianza d’uomo, di parlare e comportarci in maniera consona alla nostra coscienza e a ciò che è giusto, e di non agire contro la nostra umanità o la nostra morale. Non ho fatto altro che stare a casa a leggere la parola di Dio, organizzare incontri e compiere il mio dovere, il mio dovere, ma la polizia del Partito Comunista Cinese mi ha incastrata e mi ha accusata di “disturbo dell’ordine pubblico”. Ha alterato apertamente i fatti, distorto deliberatamente la verità, accusato arbitrariamente le persone di falsi crimini! Satana è davvero spregevole. Non erano che sfacciate calunnie, diffamazione maliziosa. La polizia aveva appreso da quell’informatore che io ospitavo incontri con i miei fratelli e sorelle nella mia casa, quindi dopo quel fatto non hanno smesso di tormentarmi. Poco dopo, mi hanno portata alla stazione di polizia per interrogarmi, e mi hanno minacciata dicendo: “Dicci i nomi dei leader della tua Chiesa e di quelli che ospiti in occasione degli incontri. Se non ce li dirai, ti chiuderemo in prigione!” Fermamente ma con correttezza, ho risposto: “Non so nulla! Non ho niente da dirvi!” La polizia era furente oltre ogni dire ma, dato che Dio mi proteggeva, non hanno osato mettermi le mani addosso.

 

Dopo avermi rilasciata, la polizia ha continuato a sorvegliarmi nella vana speranza di usarmi come esca per catturare un “pesce più grosso”. Avevo paura di coinvolgere i miei fratelli e le mie sorelle, quindi non osavo più tenermi in contatto con loro e perciò mi sono estraniata dalla vita della Chiesa. Senza di essa mi sentivo vuota nel cuore e priva di un rifugio, e mi sono gradualmente allontanata da Dio. Ogni giorno vivevo nel panico e nella paura, temendo nel profondo che la polizia sarebbe di nuovo venuta a prendermi. In precedenza avevo passato le giornate ascoltando la parola di Dio, e i Sermoni e la Condivisione, ma ora questo era impossibile perché, se mi avessero vista pregare o se avessi anche solo pronunciato la parola “Dio”, la mia famiglia mi avrebbe fatto una bella ramanzina. Mia nuora mi parlava sempre con freddezza perché ero stata multata dalla polizia, mentre mio marito e mio figlio mi rimproveravano di continuo. La famiglia che una volta aveva supportato la mia fede in Dio Onnipotente ora mi osteggiava e mi perseguitava in ogni modo. Questo mi riempiva di tristezza, il mio spirito si sentiva oppresso, vivevo in un’oscurità e un dolore mai sperimentati prima. Non avendo letture della parola di Dio da ascoltare ed essendo impossibile per me essere in comunione con i miei fratelli e sorelle, il mio spirito si sentiva incredibilmente arido. Ogni notte mi rigiravo nel letto, non riuscivo a dormire: spesso sentivo la mancanza delle ore felici che avevo passato negli incontri con i miei fratelli e sorelle. In momenti come quelli, odiavo il governo del Partito Comunista Cinese che aveva provocato tutta la mia infelicità, che mi aveva fatto perdere il diritto, spettante a ogni essere creato, di credere liberamente in Dio e di adorarLo, che mi aveva fatto perdere la mia vita nella Chiesa, mi aveva impedito di condividere in merito alla parola di Dio con i miei fratelli e con le mie sorelle, nonché di compiere il mio dovere. Nella mia infelicità, potevo solo pregare Dio in silenzio: “Oh, Dio! Vivo nell’oscurità, sento che il mio spirito si è inaridito, e desidero vivere la vita della Chiesa con i miei fratelli e le mie sorelle. Oh, Dio! Ti supplico di aprirmi una via!”

 

Mi sono presentata di fronte a Dio e ho continuato a invocarLo così. Dio ha davvero ascoltato le mie preghiere, poiché ha fatto sì che i miei fratelli e le mie sorelle mi venissero a trovare. Una delle sorelle sapeva che spesso mi recavo nei campi a raccogliere il cotone, quindi, in segreto, è venuta lì per incontrarmi, e abbiamo stabilito un orario per vederci lì. Ogni volta che ci incontravamo, uscivo presto nel campo per raccogliere il cotone; mentre tutti gli altri pranzavano, io mi accucciavo nel campo con la mia sorella per leggere la parola di Dio. Vedere la mia sorella è stato come vedere un parente perduto da tempo. Non potevo smettere di piangere di gioia. Le ho raccontato dell’ingiustizia e della tristezza che avevo sopportato, e anche delle incomprensioni con la mia famiglia. Mi ha confortata mentre le parole di Dio mi nutrivano, e abbiamo condiviso in merito alla volontà di Dio; gradualmente, la mia situazione ha cominciato a migliorare. La persecuzione da parte del governo del Partito Comunista Cinese ha fatto sì che potessimo incontrarci soltanto accucciate in un campo di cotone. Un giorno, abbiamo letto un passaggio della parola di Dio: “Fra di voi, non esiste un uomo che riceva la protezione della legge; anzi, siete penalizzati dalla legge e la difficoltà maggiore è che nessun uomo vi comprende, neanche i vostri parenti, i vostri genitori, i vostri amici o i vostri colleghi. Nessuno vi comprende. Quando Dio vi rifiuta, non avete modo di continuare a vivere sulla terra. Malgrado ciò, a dispetto di tutto, la gente non può sopportare di abbandonare Dio; questo è il significato della conquista della gente da parte di Dio, e questa è la gloria di Dio. […] Non si possono ricevere le benedizioni in uno o due giorni; vanno guadagnate con molto sacrificio. In altre parole, dovete avere un amore raffinato, una grande fede e le molte verità che Dio vi chiede di raggiungere; inoltre, dovete essere in grado di volgere lo sguardo alla giustizia e non essere mai intimiditi o sottomessi, e amare costantemente e incessantemente Dio. Vi viene chiesto di essere decisi, come pure di cambiare la vostra indole di vita; occorre correggere la vostra corruzione e dovete accettare tutto ciò che Dio vi ordina senza lamentarvi, e sapere persino essere obbedienti fino alla morte. Questo è quanto dovete conseguire. Questo è lo scopo finale dell’opera di Dio e ciò che Egli esige da questo gruppo di persone” (“Il lavoro di Dio è così semplice come crede l’uomo?” in “La Parola appare nella carne”). La parola di Dio mi ha fatto capire che per me era necessario sopportare la sofferenza di quel periodo. La Cina è una nazione dominata dall’ateismo nella quale chi crede in Dio è perseguitato e deriso, ma tale sofferenza era temporanea e limitata, ed era stata organizzata con attenzione da Dio per perfezionare la mia fede in Lui e la mia obbedienza nei Suoi confronti, in modo che io potessi, in futuro, ricevere meglio la Sua promessa e le Sue benedizioni. Non desideravo più nient’altro, perché avere Dio era sufficiente. Allo stesso tempo, mi sono resa conto che le leggi promulgate dal governo del Partito Comunista Cinese non erano che semplici trucchi per ingannare le persone. Agli occhi del mondo esterno il governo sostiene la libertà religiosa, ma in realtà i credenti in Dio non hanno nemmeno il diritto di leggerNe la parola o di incontrarsi. Semplicemente, il governo non tollera l’esistenza di chi crede in Dio e non consente alle persone di seguire Dio o la retta via nella vita. Proprio come dice Dio Onnipotente: “Libertà religiosa? Diritti e interessi legittimi dei cittadini? Sono tutti trucchi per celare il peccato!” (“Lavoro e ingresso (8)” in “La Parola appare nella carne”). I cieli e la terra creati da Dio sono vasti, ma in Cina chi crede in Dio non ha nessun appiglio. Chiunque creda in Dio viene arrestato e perseguitato dal Partito Comunista Cinese e la sua libertà viene limitata. Il Partito Comunista Cinese non desidera nulla di più che sterminare ogni singolo credente in Dio e trasformare la Cina in una nazione senza Dio. Il Partito Comunista Cinese è così corrotto, malvagio e reazionario. È davvero incompatibile con Dio, è un nemico di Dio che non Ne tollera l’esistenza!

 

Così, ho continuato a incontrare mia sorella in segreto, nel campo di cotone. Ma il tempo passava, e stava per arrivare l’inverno. Le foglie delle piante di cotone si appassivano e cadevano, e il campo non ci dava più una copertura per i nostri incontri, quindi mi sono ritrovata nuovamente senza fratelli né sorelle con i quali condividere la parola di Dio. Inizialmente sono stata in grado di tener fede alla parola di Dio e di mantenere un normale rapporto con Lui, ma senza ciò che la parola di Dio mi forniva, senza il suo nutrimento, il mio spirito si è fatto sempre più arido e secco, e ben presto sono caduta nuovamente nell’oscurità. Era come se fossi precipitata dal paradiso all’inferno, ed ero così infelice che anche la morte sarebbe stata preferibile. La mia famiglia credeva nelle menzogne della polizia, quindi mi teneva d’occhio ogni giorno e minacciava di picchiarmi se avessi continuato a credere in Dio Onnipotente. Non osavo pregare in casa; potevo farlo soltanto di notte, sotto le coperte, o quando non c’era nessuno in casa. Passavo ogni giorno così. Oltre a sopportare le recriminazioni della mia famiglia, dovevo sopportare anche le chiacchiere e i pettegolezzi della gente del villaggio. Di fronte a tutto questo mi sentivo particolarmente infelice, debole e impotente nello spirito, ero giù di morale ogni giorno. Sentivo che, avendo perso la vita della Chiesa, impossibilitata a leggere la parola di Dio e a vedere i miei fratelli e le mie sorelle, il semplice fatto di essere viva fosse un tormento e avesse perso tutta la sua gioia. Ripensavo a come, in passato, quando mi sentivo debole e affranta, le parole di Dio mi avevano sempre confortata, i miei fratelli e le mie sorelle mi avevano sempre sostenuta con pazienza e a come, una volta capita la volontà di Dio, mi ero sentita immediatamente a mio agio e libera, e il mio morale tornava a sollevarsi. Ma ora, a causa della persecuzione e della sorveglianza da parte della polizia, avevo perso il diritto di leggere la parola di Dio e non potevo nemmeno vedere i miei fratelli e le mie sorelle. Ogni giorno era uno sforzo, lungo e difficile; vedendo come campavo senza sentirmi viva, come se fossi morta, e ripensando a quanto ero stata piena di vita in passato, quando vivevo alla presenza di Dio nella Chiesa, mi sentivo afflitta e profondamente infelice. Quando poi ripensavo a come la mia famiglia fosse stata presa in giro e ingannata dal Partito Comunista Cinese, a come non mi capisse e a come avesse seguito le istruzioni del Partito nel limitare la mia libertà, sentivo il mio cuore spezzarsi ancora di più. Proprio quando mi sembrava di non avere più nessuno cui rivolgermi, pregavo Dio in continuazione supplicandoLo di aprirmi una via. “Oh, Dio! Ora non posso leggere la Tua parola né vivere la vita della Chiesa, e questa vita è diventata insopportabile per me. Oh, Dio! La mia famiglia è stata ingannata dal Partito Comunista Cinese e prova con tutte le forze a impedirmi di credere in Te. Ti prego, aiutami, permettimi di testimoniare le Tue azioni e fa’ sì che i miei familiari non siano più ingannati e usati da Satana. Oh, Dio! Desidero affidarTi la mia famiglia, e Ti chiedo di mostrarmi una via d’uscita”.

 

Grazie a Dio, Egli ha davvero ascoltato le mie preghiere. Qualche tempo dopo, una sera, sono improvvisamente svenuta davanti al letto. Mio marito era terrorizzato e non sapeva cosa fare, così mio figlio ha chiamato subito i servizi di emergenza. Quando il primo ospedale che ha risposto ha scoperto che la paziente era una vecchia gravemente malata, ha rifiutato di accettarmi. Mio figlio ha chiamato il numero di emergenza di un altro ospedale, e il medico ha detto che non avevo molte possibilità di tornare in me, che non aveva senso darsi da fare per salvarmi, che la mia famiglia avrebbe dovuto prepararsi al peggio. Ma mio figlio si è rifiutato di lasciar perdere, e li ha supplicati finché non hanno potuto fare altro che cedere e portarmi all’ospedale. Però, anche dopo le procedure di pronto soccorso, sono rimasta priva di conoscenza. Non c’era nulla che i medici potessero fare, e la mia famiglia era sicura che non sarei sopravvissuta. Ma nulla è impossibile per Dio, perché è stato allora che è avvenuto un miracolo! Dopo essere rimasta in un grave stato di coma per 18 ore, sono lentamente tornata in me. Tutti i presenti erano sbalorditi. Quando ho aperto gli occhi e ho visto i dottori, ho pensato di avere di fronte degli angeli. Ho chiesto loro dove fossi, uno mi ha risposto che ero in ospedale; mentre controllavano freneticamente i miei segni vitali, continuavano a borbottare: “È davvero un miracolo…” Ben presto mi sono alzata a sedere; avevo molta fame. L’infermiera mi ha dato da mangiare. Quando ho finito, mi sono sentita piena di forza e di energia. Sapevo che era stato uno degli atti miracolosi di Dio Onnipotente, che Dio aveva ascoltato le mie preghiere e che aveva aperto una via per me. Seduta sul letto, non sono riuscita a trattenermi dal cantare lodi a Dio. Il medico, stupito, non ha potuto fare a meno di chiedermi: “Signora, chi è questo Dio in cui lei crede?” Ho risposto: “Credo nell’unico vero Dio, che ha creato ogni cosa in cielo e in terra: Dio Onnipotente!” Il medico ha reagito guardandomi stupito, mentre la mia famiglia era sorpresa e felicissima nel vedermi cantare. Una volta uscita dall’ospedale, sono tornata a casa; uno alla volta, i miei vicini sono venuti a trovarmi e dicevano: “Incredibile! Tutti i medici avevano detto che non c’erano speranze, e invece ti sei svegliata. È un miracolo!” Ho testimoniato Dio con loro, dicendo che la mia guarigione era dovuta al grande potere di Dio, che Lui mi aveva salvata, che senza di Lui sarei morta, che era stato Dio a darmi un’altra possibilità di vivere. Ho detto loro che tutta l’umanità è stata creata da Dio, che è Dio a darci la vita, che Dio organizza e gestisce le nostre vite, che la gente non può allontanarsi dalla Sua guida perché allontanarsi da Dio significa morire. Dopo quell’esperienza, la mia famiglia ha smesso di opporsi alla mia fede in Dio, e Dio mi ha anche donato una benedizione inattesa: anche mio marito ha accettato la fase corrente dell’opera di Dio. Dopo quel momento, mio marito è venuto spesso con me agli incontri di condivisione e io mi sono sentita davvero felice, in pace e al sicuro. Da allora ho passato ogni giorno nella gioia, perché avevo davvero visto la saggezza e l’onnipotenza di Dio, e ho ringraziato e lodato Dio dal profondo del cuore!

 

Grazie alla mia esperienza, sono arrivata a comprendere davvero che, qualunque cosa Dio faccia a una persona, lo fa per amore. Dietro al fatto che Dio abbia permesso a Satana di perseguitarmi si celano le Sue buone intenzioni. Il Partito Comunista Cinese avrebbe voluto utilizzare il mio arresto e la persecuzione per spingermi a rinunciare a Dio e a tradirLo, ma non aveva idea che la saggezza di Dio si esercita sulla base dei trucchetti di Satana. Non solo l’oppressione da parte del Partito Comunista Cinese ha fallito nell’intento di spingermi a rinunciare a Dio e a tradirLo, ma mi ha anche consentito di vedere con chiarezza l’essenza malvagia del Partito nel suo resistere a Dio e agire contro il cielo, rendendo ancora più salda la mia certezza che la parola di Dio è la via, la verità e la vita! Mi ha anche permesso di vedere il grande potere e le azioni miracolose di Dio, rafforzando così il mio amore e la mia fedeltà nei Suoi confronti. Proprio come dice la parola di Dio Onnipotente: “Nel Mio progetto, Satana è rimasto sempre alle calcagna cercando di azzannare a ogni passo e, facendo da contrasto alla Mia sapienza, ha sempre cercato di trovare dei modi e dei mezzi per sconvolgere il Mio progetto originario. Ma potrei Io soccombere alle sue macchinazioni ingannevoli? Tutto in cielo e in terra è al Mio servizio: le macchinazioni ingannevoli di Satana potrebbero forse essere diverse? Proprio questa è l’intersezione della Mia sapienza, è proprio ciò che è portentoso riguardo ai Miei atti ed è il principio secondo cui viene attuato l’intero Mio piano di gestione” (Capitolo 8 di “Parole di Dio all’intero universo” in “La Parola appare nella carne”). Più il Partito Comunista Cinese resiste follemente a Dio e perseguita il popolo da Lui eletto, più noi siamo in grado di capire e abbandonare il Partito, di comprendere la verità e di conoscere la saggezza e gli atti miracolosi di Dio. La nostra fede nel seguire Dio cresce a sua volta, e diventiamo più capaci di prestare risonante testimonianza a Dio. Tramite l’esperienza della persecuzione da parte del Partito Comunista Cinese, ho visto con chiarezza che, nell’opera di Dio, Satana funge semplicemente da contrasto, da strumento di servizio per Dio; e ho anche riconosciuto in maniera più chiara il sincero desiderio di Dio di salvare l’umanità. In futuro, qualunque difficoltà o ostacolo dovrò affrontare, desidero compiere il mio dovere il meglio possibile e fare la mia parte per soddisfare la volontà di Dio.

There are two parts

    in me

    

One of them

    is who I am

  it is what makes me vibrate

        it is the part that makes me create

it is what I am here to do

    it is the part that knows Joy

          it is the part that knows Light

  it is the part that loves

        it is the part that is open

    it is the part that makes me live

    

The other one

      is what I fear

    it is the part that refuses all risk

  it is what makes me hide from myself

it is the part that wants everything to remain as I know it

    it is the part that compares

  it is the part that is threatened

    it is that wants to be told nice things

        it is the part that wants to be safe

    it is the part that knows Time

        it is the part that is closed

    it is the part that just wants to survive

 

Call them

                    however

        you want

        

 

The second one

      that dark and fearful part of myself

    is very eloquent

                        and loud

          it knows words

          it knows thoughts

        it knows how to reason

        it knows how to argument

    and

        it never stops talking

 

      

The first one

        the one that sees light

    knows no words

                no thoughts

          no beliefs

          no fleeting emotions

    it knows presence

        it knows eternity

  and it is almost silent

  

 

The second one

          that ever worrying part of myself

    I learned it

        at a time

        I thought I would suffer

                                  and maybe even disappear

                  if I didn't protect myself

            from everything

                                around me

      that part knows how to fight

 

The first one

      I didn't learn

    it was there

            all the time

            in me

      it always was

      it simply is

  and

      always will be

Fighting doesn't mean anything to it

    nothing means anything to it

                                                                  really

 

and even though

    it is almost silent

  even though is has no words

                                and no thoughts to form in my mind to defend itself ...

  even though

        the scared one is loud and restless and talking and thinking and reacting and getting scared and speeding up all the time ...

        

    even though I am reminded by my fears that I never have enough time ...

      that I am oh-so-very tired and I should go to sleep instead ...

 

      even though ...

  

... I can still hear it

      slowing down

                        and turning time itself against the fear

            turning the silence

                  against the words and the thoughts

    by letting go

              of my own noise

                  and let it recede

            for a moment

  

... I can still hear it

  showing me who I am

      showing me why I am here

                what I am here to do

  

without any explanation

    without any justification

just being there

 

... I can still hear it

                        showing me Beauty

          

          ...

 

And the noise starts again

    the rushing traffic of pulsating thoughts invades again the place that was quiet

  attracting my attention again and again

          on everything that is scary

                everything that could be dangerous

                everything that I should regret

                everything that I should worry about

        trying to confuse me

        trying to exhaust me

 

It seems unending

      it seems that I'll never get rid of it

    new scary thoughts will follow

          the current scary thoughts

        who followed

                the previous scary thougts

  and so on

          forever

        until

              I fall

                    of exhaustion

 

Truth is

      it may never stop

      it may be that the fear will always be here

            in that part of me

        and that

              it will never stop talking

                    inside of me

  

But

              still

      I have

              a choice

  

  The traffic is raging

                                screaming

      but I don't have to let it run me over

      

    That crazy traffic of thoughts

                                                            is loud

                                                    and unending

        but all it wants

                                  is to grab my attention

        and never let it go

 

But ...

        that's

                      entirely

      for me

                    to choose

  

I can choose

      where I focus my attention

  I can choose

        which of these parts I will listen to

        which one I will follow

        which one I will attend to

        

              the scared traffic

            or

              the light

          

          

At every moment

    I can choose

                          to yield

                to my fears

        

        to try to appease the worry for a short while

                by going back to where I was before

        to try to compare myself to who's around and feel unadequate

                        or threatened

                        or reassured for short while

        to try to hide behind my walls to avoid being judged

                for a short while

        to try to ask for reassuring words

                and try to convince myself thatI am indeed reassured

                        for a short while

        to try to wear a better mask

          to try to learn a better mask to wear

              to try to buy a better mask to wear

                until it wears out

                  in a short while

        to try to numb myself

                  with food

                  with more noise

                  with more confusion

                  with my drug of choice

                    until it gets addictive

        to try to distract myself

                  with cynicism

                  with resentment

                  with sneers

                  with mockery

                      for a short while

                  and with mocking the mockery

                          for another short while

      to let my very own confusion exhaust me

                and to accept all the rationalizations it readily hands me over

        to let it make me so tired I feel I have no other option than going to bed

              and not do anything

                      for a short while

            

All this will not change anything

        the moment after that

              the next day

          the next year

      will be the same

              and so on

                          short while after short while

        But ... that's exactly the point of all this

                                                                                        after all

                        Just surviving

                        

        

        ...

 

Instead

          I could

                    choose

          to attend to that other part of myself

  the one I cannot

                            simply

                yield to

  

  the part

        I have to listen to

              in the silence

 

the part

      that requires me to

                                            choose

                  to make silence

            and

                  to actually make silence

 

    the part

        that requires me to

                                      refuse to delightfully accept

                            the confusion

    

the part

      that will never go away

      that will never be swayed

      that will never be convinced to stop from being

  the one

        that has no opposite

  the one

      that is

      

And

    then

  I can choose

              to act upon

                    what I was shown

                upon

                    who I am

                    

This is a

        choice

    that needs to be

                                  made

        all the time

 

Once is not enough

    once has never been enough

  Every moment

        I have this choice

        

        of which part of me

                                I focus on

                  satisfying my fears by recoiling

                or

                  getting out and play in the light

            

There is no bargain

        there is no later

choosing later is the realm of fear

        there is only a choice

              right now

                      to listen to who I am

                                                      with great care

        or

                to accept what will keep me at a safe distance from it

 

Right now

    after right now

          after right now

              ...

                    

                    which am I choosing to serve ?
