Eliss -$2.99- Already one of my favorite iPhone games from 2009, Eliss plays even better on an iPad. In order to master this game, you'll need to get good at using both hands to manage all the action on screen. Luckily the iPad's larger screen works in your favor with this addictive app.
IsoWords -$1.99- The larger screen totally works in your favor for selecting letters in this 3 dimensional Boggle like game. I was a fan of the pass-to-play feature before, but now I can lend my iPad to a friend and play multi-player over wifi using my iPhone.
Saucelifter -$1.99- The graphics look even better on the iPad than on the iPhone in this stylish take on the classic Choplifter genre. The controls are a bit sensitive at first, but you can adjust them in the options menu.
PAC-MAN Championship Edition -$2.99- Admittedly, I'm a big fan of the paku-paku franchise, but I didn't really grok the iPhone version till I rocked it on the iPad. It totally brings back memories of Friday night's at the skate rink. There are several different control interfaces available, but I recommend the swipe "joystick" control.
Platypus -$4.99- All I have to say is "claymation videogame" and I know I already have your attention. Most of the games on this list look great on an iPad because they happen to use vector graphics, but for whatever reason this non-vector artwork scales wonderfully onto the iPad's screen. Platypus also has local multi-player mode, so if you have an iPhone and an iPad you are all set to multiplay with friends with just one app purchase.
Ground Effect -$2.99- Ground Effect is like F-Zero with ekranoplans. The graphics port to the iPad well, and the rendering is nice and fast. Ground Effect also has several options for viewing the game in 3D anaglyph, so dig out those red/cyan glasses you have laying around.
Light Bike -$2.99- I honestly feel this game is virtually unplayable on the iPhone, but it's perfect for the iPad. Now it's way easier to navigate those split-second right-angle maneuvers.
Surfacer -Free- Surfacer is a great time-killing game about filling negative space.
Plants Versus Zombies -$2.99- You could pay $10 (!!!) for the iPad version of this game, but I felt the iPhone version didn't look too bad on the larger screen and only costs $3. Again, why pay 3 times as much for something that isn't iPhone compatible? Now the graphics of the iPhone version are a little blurry on the Pad, but they still look pretty good.
Racer Coaster -$0.99- This 3D racing game pits you against crazy curvy roads and obstacles. Fans of the classic Hard Drivin' games will love this game on the iPad, but not so much on the iPhone.
Fieldrunners -$2.99- Like PvZombies, the difference between Fieldrunners and Fieldrunners HD is certainly not worth triple the price. Maybe the developers will take some time in the future to make a more unique experience for the iPad to justify the increased price, but currently the old version of Fieldrunners works just fine for me.
Galcon Labs -$0.99- Like real time Risk in space, Galcon is another classic iPhone game that benefits from the larger screen real estate without losing too much visual. I'd also like to note that while the iPad version of this game is $10, he developer has really gone out of his way to create a unique experience for the iPad rather than a straightforward copy.
Star Defense -$0.99- There are hundreds of Tower Defense games to choose from, but Star Defense seemed to shine out on the iPad.
Bike Or Die 2 -$5.99- This game really made my last overseas flight go by quickly. I was pleased to see the game looks and feels great on the iPad too. Tons of maps to keep you playing for weeks.
Bit Pilot -$0.99- Bit Pilot is a pixelized shooter in which you try to avoid getting smashed by asteroids, but what really keeps me playing is Sabrepulse's anthemic chiptune soundtrack... which sounds fantastic on the iPad's speakers. Pro tip; use two fingers on the screen to control your ship at 2X speed.
Horror Racing -$0.99-
The steering wheel interface works much better on this larger screen and the graphics don't seem to take a big hit from the higher resolution.
C64 -Free- C64 is a Commodore emulator with tons of free games from the classic system. Unfortunately C64's UI looks extremely blurry on the iPad, the actual game screen itself looks nice and sharp. Luckily you remove most of the UI by keeping your device in horizontal view to full size the game screen. Retro heaven.
Time Loop -$0.99- This fun single player co-operative looks great on the iPad and is an easy puzzler for any age to get into.
Totemo -$0.99- Another puzzler that's just a good way to kill time and doesn't look too bad on your iPad.
Sentinel -$1.99- I was really impressed with how nice these graphics look on the iPad. The Sentinel games were some of my favorite iPhone games from last year, but not every graphic heavy iPhone game looks as good as this does on the iPad.
Fountain Paint Pot trail, Yellowstone National Park, Wyoming, USA
Map (link):
[ www.google.co.in/imgres?imgurl=https://4.bp.blogspot.com/... and Spasm Geysers, Fountain Paint Pot trail, Yellowstone National Park images&ved=0ahUKEwjkgubQv8XeAhUC3Y8KHaFRCQ8QMwhNKBowGg&iact=mrc&uact=8 ]
This part of Lower Geyser Basin seen from a half-mile trail has all four of the hydrothermal features found in the park:
Clepsydra Geyser is a geyser in the Lower Geyser Basin of Yellowstone National Park. Clepsydra plays nearly continuously to heights of 45 feet. The name Clepsydra is derived from the Greek word for water clock. Prior to the 1959 Hebgen Lake earthquake, it erupted regularly every three minutes.
Yellowstone National Park has several hydrothermal areas, so what makes the Fountain Paint Pot Area worth visiting? For starters, this part of Lower Geyser Basin has all four of the hydrothermal features found in the park (mudpots, geysers, hot springs, and fumaroles) and you can see them all from a compact half-mile long boardwalk loop. While none of the many Fountain Paint Pot Area geysers are as famous as Old Faithful, they erupt so frequently that you are almost guaranteed a great show on your short hike. Since the walkway passes all four of Yellowstone’s hydrothermal formations, the hike comes with a guaranteed lesson in hydrothermal volcanism.
Hiking the loop in a clockwise direction, you will first pass through a forest of lodgepole pine snags that were drowned and left lifeless by the surrounding hot springs. As you approach the northwest end of the loop, you will spot a lively collection of geysers. Clepsydra Geyser, Fountain Geyser, Jelly Geyser, Jet Geyser, Morning Geyser, Spasm Geyser, and Twig Geyser erupt with various levels of regularity.
As you progress around the walkway toward the northeast corner, you will pass Red Spouter, which behaves like a fumarole, a hot spring, and a mudpot throughout the year. It is like a hot spring in the winter, a muddy reddish pool in the spring and a steaming fumarole in the drier summer and fall. Wrapping down the east side of the boardwalk, you will pass Leather Pool and a slope of fumaroles. These gaps in the surface whistle and hiss as gasses and steam escape from the ground. Just below the fumaroles, where a little more water is present, the trail circles Fountain Paint Pot. These mudpots bubble and pop as globs of mud springs from the surface like miniature trapeze artists.
Continuing downhill, the hydrothermal features become even wetter as you arrive at Silex Spring. Look down into the small blue pool rimmed with white silica. Water spills over the sides of the spring creating an orange-colored surface covered in rippling runoff. These colors are created by thermophiles, heat-loving microorganisms that live in Yellowstone’s hot springs.

Geothermal features of Yellowstone NP- A brief note:
There are four geothermal features found in the park – Hot springs, Geysers, Fumaroles , and Mud volcanoes/pots.
What is a Hot spring?
Hot spring, also called thermal spring, spring with water at temperatures substantially higher than the air temperature of the surrounding region. Most hot springs discharge groundwater that is heated by shallow intrusions of magma (molten rock) in volcanic areas.
Some thermal springs, however, are not related to volcanic activity. In general, the temperature of rocks within the earth increases with depth. The rate of temperature increase with depth is known as the geothermal gradient. In such cases, the water is heated by convective circulation: groundwater percolating downward reaches depths of a kilometre or more where the temperature of rocks is high because of the normal temperature gradient of the Earth’s crust—about 30 °C / kilometer in the first 10 km. The water from hot springs in non-volcanic areas is heated in this manner.
But in active volcanic zones such as Yellowstone National Park, water may be heated by coming into contact with magma (molten rock). The high temperature gradient near magma may cause water to be heated enough that it boils or becomes superheated. If the water becomes so hot that it builds steam pressure and erupts in a jet above the surface of the Earth, it is called a geyser.
[ Warm springs are sometimes the result of hot and cold springs mixing. They may occur within a volcanic area or outside of one. One example of a non-volcanic warm spring is Warm Springs, Georgia (frequented for its therapeutic effects by paraplegic U.S. President Franklin D. Roosevelt, who built the Little White House there) ].
List of hot springs:
[ en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_hot_springs ]
The science of colors of a hot spring:
[ ttps://www.britannica.com/science/hot-spring]
Many of the colours in hot springs are caused by thermophilic (heat-loving) microorganisms, which include certain types of bacteria, such as cyanobacteria, and species of archaea and algae. Many thermophilic organisms grow in huge colonies called mats that form the colourful scums and slimes on the sides of hot springs. The microorganisms that grow in hot springs derive their energy from various chemicals and metals; potential energy sources include molecular hydrogen, dissolved sulfides, methane, iron, ammonia, and arsenic. In addition to geochemistry, the temperature and pH of hot springs play a central role in determining which organisms inhabit them.
Examples of thermophilic microorganisms found in hot springs include bacteria in the genera Sulfolobus, which can grow at temperatures of up to 90 °C (194 °F), Hydrogenobacter, which grow optimally at temperatures of 85 °C (185 °F), and Thermocrinis, which grow optimally at temperatures of 80 °C (176 °F). Thermophilic algae in hot springs are most abundant at temperatures of 55 °C (131 °F) or below.
What is a Geyser?
A geyser is formed when water collecting below the surface is heated by a magma source. When the water boils, it rises to the surface. If the water has an unobstructed path, it will pool on the surface in the form of a steaming hot springs. If the passage of the water is imposed upon, the pressure will increase. When the pressure becomes too great, the water converts into to steam. Steam takes up 1,500 times the volume of water, and at this point, the pressure becomes so intense that the steam and surrounding water droplets shoot out of the ground in geyser form, erupting until the pressure has abated and the process starts all over again.
What is a fumarole?
It’s a vent in the Earth’s surface from which steam and volcanic gases are emitted. The major source of the water vapour emitted by fumaroles is groundwater heated by bodies of magma lying relatively close to the surface. Carbon dioxide, sulfur dioxide, and hydrogen sulfide are usually emitted directly from the magma. Fumaroles are often present on active volcanoes during periods of relative quiet between eruptions.
Fumaroles are closely related to hot springs and geysers. In areas where the water table rises near the surface, fumaroles can become hot springs. A fumarole rich in sulfur gases is called a solfatara; a fumarole rich in carbon dioxide is called a mofette. If the hot water of a spring only reaches the surface in the form of steam, it is called a fumarole. [ www.britannica.com/science/fumarole ]
What is a mud volcano/ mud pot/ paint pot?
Usually mud volcanoes are created by hot-spring activity where large amounts of gas and small amounts of water react chemically with the surrounding rocks and form a boiling mud.
Geo-chemistry of mud volcano: Hydrogen sulfide gas rising from magma chamber, as in Yellowstone’s, causes the rotten-egg smell. Microorganisms, or thermophiles, use this gas as a source of energy, and then help turn the gas into sulfuric acid. The acid then breaks down the rocks and soil into mud. Many of the colors seen are vast communities of thermophiles, but some of the yellow is pure sulfur. When iron mixes with sulfur to form iron sulfide, gray and black swirls sometimes appear in the mud (From description of the display board in the park).
If the water of a hot spring is mixed with mud and clay, it is called a mud pot. Variations are the porridge pot (a basin of boiling mud that erodes chunks of the surrounding rock) and the paint pot (a basin of boiling mud that is tinted yellow, green, or blue by minerals from the surrounding rocks).
There are other mud volcanoes, entirely of a nonigneous origin, occur only in oil-field regions that are relatively young and have soft, unconsolidated formations.

A quick overview of YNP
Yellowstone National Park is an American national park located in Wyoming, Montana, and Idaho. Approximately 96 percent of the land area of Yellowstone National Park is located within the state of Wyoming. The Park spans an area of 8,983 km2 comprising lakes, canyons, rivers and mountain ranges. The park is known for its wildlife and its many geothermal features. It has many types of ecosystems, but the subalpine forest is the most abundant. It is part of the South Central Rockies forests eco-region.
It was established by the U.S. Congress and signed into law by President Ulysses S. Grant on March 1, 1872. Yellowstone was the first national park in the U.S. and is also widely held to be the first national park in the world. Native Americans have lived in the Yellowstone region for at least 11,000 years. Aside from visits by mountain -men during the early to mid-19th century, organized exploration did not begin until the late 1860s.
The park contains the headwaters of the Yellowstone River, from which it takes its historical name. Although it is commonly believed that the river was named for the yellow rocks seen in the ‘Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone’, the Native American name source is unclear.
Yellowstone Lake is one of the largest high-elevation lakes in North America and is centered over the Yellowstone Caldera, the largest supervolcano on the continent. The caldera is considered as an active volcano. It has erupted with tremendous force several times in the last two million year. The Yellowstone Caldera is the largest volcanic system in North America. It has been termed a "supervolcano" because the caldera was formed by exceptionally large explosive eruptions. The magma chamber that lies under Yellowstone is estimated to be a single connected chamber, about 60 km long, 29 km wide, and 5 to 12 km deep. Yellowstone Lake is up to 400 feet deep and has 180 km of shoreline.The lake is at an elevation of 7,733 feet above sea levels. Half of the world's geysers and hydrothermal features are there in Yellowstone, fueled by this ongoing volcanism. Lava and rocks from volcanic eruptions cover most of the land area of Yellowstone. The park is the centerpiece of the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem, the largest remaining nearly-intact ecosystem in the Earth's northern temperate zone. In 1978, Yellowstone was named a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
In May 2001, the U.S. Geological Survey, Yellowstone National Park, and the University of Utah created the Yellowstone Volcano Observatory (YVO), a partnership for long-term monitoring of the geological processes of the Yellowstone Plateau volcanic field, for disseminating information concerning the potential hazards of this geologically active region.
Hundreds of species of mammals, birds, fish, and reptiles have been documented, including several that are either endangered or threatened. The vast forests and grasslands also include unique species of plants. Yellowstone Park is the largest and most famous mega fauna location in the contiguous United States. Grizzly bears, wolves, and free-ranging herds of bison and elk live in this park. The Yellowstone Park bison herd is the oldest and largest public bison herd in the United States.
Forest fires occur in the park each year. In the largest forest fires of 1988, nearly one third of the park was burnt.
Yellowstone has numerous recreational opportunities, including hiking, camping, boating, fishing and sightseeing. Paved roads provide close access to the major geothermal areas as well as some of the lakes and waterfalls. During the winter, visitors often access the park by way of guided tours that use either snow coaches or snowmobiles.
Fire in Yellowstone NP:
Causes of wildfire in Yellowstone NP
Wildfire has had a role in the dynamics of Yellowstone’s ecosystems for thousands of years. Although many fires were caused by human activities, most ignitions were natural. The term "natural ignition" usually refers to a lightning strike. Afternoon thunderstorms occur frequently in the northern Rocky Mountains but release little precipitation, a condition known as ‘dry lightning’. In a typical season there are thousands of lightning strikes in Yellowstone. Lightning strikes are powerful enough to rip strips of bark off of a tree in a shower of sparks and blow the pieces up to 100 feet away. However, most lightning strikes do not result in a wildfire because fuels are not in a combustible state.
The great fire incidence of 1988
The Yellowstone fires of 1988 collectively formed the largest wildfire in the recorded history of Yellowstone National Park in the United States. Starting as many smaller individual fires, the flames quickly spread out of control due to drought conditions and increasing winds, combining into one large conflagration which burned for several months. The fires almost destroyed two major visitor destinations and, on September 8, 1988, the entire park closed to all non-emergency personnel for the first time in its history. Only the arrival of cool and moist weather in the late autumn brought the fires to an end. A total of 793,880 acres, or 36 percent of the park was affected by the wildfires.
Fire incidence, 2016
As of September 21, 2016, 22 fires (human and lightning-caused) have burned more than 62,000 acres in Yellowstone National Park, making it the highest number of acres burned since the historic 1988 fire.
Heritage and Research Center
The Heritage and Research Center is located at Gardiner, Montana, near the north entrance to the park. The center is home to the Yellowstone National Park's museum collection, archives, research library, historian, archeology lab, and herbarium. The Yellowstone National Park Archives maintain collections of historical records of Yellowstone and the National Park Service. The collection includes the administrative records of Yellowstone, as well as resource management records, records from major projects, and donated manuscripts and personal papers. The archives are affiliated with the National Archives and Records Administration.

Sunday's True Blood premiere answered at least one burning question: Is Lafayette alive? Answer: Yes! Nobody is more surprised by this turn of events than Nelsan Ellis, the actor who plays Lafayette.
As a fan of the Sookie Stackhouse novel series, on which Alan Ball based the vampire drama for HBO, Ellis knew that Lafayette, Merlotte's wisecracking cook — and part-time pornographer/drug dealer — is totally dunzo after Book 1. When he arrived on set for the finale episode's table read, he prepared himself for the end. "I thought, this was fun, time to look for the next gig," he says.
But then... what's this? That painted toenail in the car didn't belong to Lafayette after all! "'You know we're not going to kill you, right?'" Ellis remembers Ball telling him. "And I was like, 'Noooo...'" Ball told the actor that he decided to keep Lafayette in the cast after shooting a scene between Ellis and Rutina Wesley, who plays Lafayette's cousin, Tara, in the pilot episode. Ellis and Wesley have combustive chemistry for sure, which Ellis attributes to their long friendship. (They attended Juilliard together in the early '00s.)
So now that Lafayette has been spared, what's next for the flamboyant entrepreneur?
When we last saw him, he was chained up in a dungeon watching a fellow prisoner get disemboweled by a very cranky Eric, his vampire captor. Ellis reveals that, this season, Lafayette's fate will be inextricably tied with that of the vampires, but that their relationship won't always be quite as adversarial. "[Lafayette] stays with the vampires basically throughout the season," he says. "I guess how deep down the rabbit hole he goes with Eric is the biggest teaser I can give."
"Eric makes people beholden to him," says Ellis. "He did it to Sookie, and now he does force Lafayette to work for him to repay him for something he's done for him." Oh jeez, Lafayette isn't going to become a vampire, is he? Not any time soon, says Ellis. "I have a sneaking suspicion that, in the future, the vampires are going to learn to respect him and not mess with him," he says. "He's going to find a way to elevate his position with them. Lafayette is a survivor, so he's not going to stay in this scared state too long." Excellent!

Taken from here, this is a picture of Yuri Gagarin, the Soviet cosmonaut who was the first man in space, fifty years ago today.
Yuri A. Gagarin was born in a village of Klushino near Gzhatsk (now in Smolensk Oblast), Russia, on March 9, 1934. His father was a carpenter. After graduating from secondary school in 1949, Gagarin went to several technical schools before joining the Orenburg Higher Air Force School (Russian Air Force) in 1955. He graduated with honours from the Soviet Air Force Academy in 1957. Soon afterward, he became a military fighter pilot. By 1959, he had been selected for cosmonaut training as part of the first group of USSR cosmonauts. He began his cosmonaut training in 1960, along with 19 other candidates.
Yuri Gagarin flew only one space mission. On April 12, 1961 he became the first human to orbit Earth. Gagarin's spacecraft, Vostok 1, circled Earth at a speed of 27,400 kilometers per hour. The flight lasted 108 minutes. At the highest point, Gagarin was about 327 kilometers above Earth.
Once in orbit, Yuri Gagarin had no control over his spacecraft. Vostok's reentry was controlled by a computer program sending radio commands to the space capsule. Although the controls were locked, a key had been placed in a sealed envelope in case an emergency situation made it necessary for Gagarin to take control. As was planned, Cosmonaut Gagarin ejected after reentry into Earth's atmosphere and landed by parachute.

Referencia a las patéticas manipulaciones informativas del periódico El Día y la Televisión Autonómica. Entre los retratos que rodean a Mr. Bruns se pueden ver los de empresarios actualmente investigados por el caso Las Teresitas y sin embargo participantes en la construcción del puerto y en el negocio del gas licuado y varios políticos del Partido Popular y Coalición Canaria igualmente imputados por varios delitos por las fiscalías anticorrupción (Caso Las Teresitas, Caso Salmón), pero que siguen en sus cargos públicos.
A modo de ejemplos
1: La "Canaria" vio 2.000 asistentes
"LA OPINIÓN Vergüenza e indignación. Esa fue la respuesta de los manifestantes cuando ayer, superadas las tres de la tarde, se corrió la voz de que la primera edición del informativo del ente público Televisión Canaria había relegado la marcha a un segundo plano y dado una cifra "increíble" de 2.000 asistentes. A nadie le extrañó, de todas maneras, la actitud de la Canaria, aún cuando se suponga que debe ofrecer un servicio público, si bien la estimación despertó durísimas críticas ante la tergiversación sistemática de todo lo que ha tenido que ver con el proyecto del muelle desde diferentes medios. El telediario del mediodía abrió con la calima (que lleva ya cuatro días sobre Canarias), dejó como segunda noticia un incendio en Geneto ocurrido la tarde del viernes y relegó a la tercera posición la marcha, con una estimación de afluencia de 2.000 personas cuando a esa hora ya se sabía que la cantidad era muy superior. Por contra, TVE, Antena 3, la agencia Efe y la cadena SER a nivel nacional hablaron de más de 20.000"
2: Editorial de El Día comentando esta manfestación:
Canaria y la dominación colonial son nuestros peores males
"LA PASADA semana concluyó plena de acontecimientos. El último, la manifestación de tinerfeños -¿realmente eran todos tinerfeños?; tenemos constancia de que miles de personas se trasladaron ex profeso desde Canaria para armar jaleo aquí- contra Tenerife y sus intereses más vitales. Estamos convencidos de que la mano negra -o amarilla; lo mismo da- canariona anda detrás de todas las maniobras contra el puerto de Granadilla. Ahí tenemos, sin ir más lejos, la hijuela que ha introducido en nuestra Isla un diario de Las Palmas. Esa hijuela, que siempre actúa como un caballo de Troya, se regocija con todo lo que le afecta negativamente a Tenerife. No hay más que ver con qué alborozo ha titulado sus primeras páginas en los últimos días, tras conocerse la paralización cautelar por el Tribunal Superior de Justicia de Canarias de las obras de dicho puerto. Ese deleznable pasquín hasta se regodea cuando pierde el Club Deportivo Tenerife. Por eso aconsejamos a todos los habitantes de esta Isla que no compren tan abominable diario. Diario, lo hemos dicho en múltiples ocasiones pero conviene recordarlo, dirigido en estos momentos por un godo insufrible que tuvimos en esta Casa hasta que nos engañó, pues forma parte de su naturaleza morder la mano que le da de comer; igual que los perros de la ira. Antes dirigía ese planfleto pro canarión otro godo famoso por su pestilencia física, si bien la hediondez de su pluma supera con creces a la mugre corporal que siempre lo acompaña, producto de su aversión al jabón. Algún día escribiremos un comentario, e incluso un editorial, monográfico dedicado a estos dos godos y otros dos más; es decir, al cuarteto más aborrecible de la prensa canaria, que para nuestra desgracia no deciden mandarse a mudar de una vez y dejarnos a todos tranquilos.
La semana acabó, como señalamos, con una manifestación que nos causa náuseas. Lo decíamos en nuestro comentario de ayer y lo repetimos en el editorial de hoy. Sólo con ver las imágenes de esas personas que no quieren a su Isla -pese a que están en su perfecto derecho para manifestarse donde y cuando quieran-, nos dan arcadas. ¿Cómo es posible esta ruindad contra Tenerife? Recordamos a nuestros lectores que el proyecto del puerto industrial de Granadilla, con su correspondiente polígono, comenzó hace 30 años. Desde entonces se han realizado multitud de estudios, que han llevado a correcciones y modificaciones de la idea inicial. Lo que se pretende construir en la actualidad tiene una incidencia mínima, si es que la tiene, sobre los sebadales. La superficie de esta pradera submarina que se vería afectada, en caso de que, como subrayamos, hubiese daño alguno, apenas superaría el uno por ciento de las que hay en Canarias. Además, existe la posibilidad de que sean trasplantadas, a pesar de que lo nieguen los falsos ecologistas.
Somos conscientes de que una mala información -una desinformación desinteresada- sobre este aspecto del proyecto ha podido ser la causa de la suspensión cautelar decretada por el TSJC. Un organismo con sede en Las Palmas y jueces vinculados a Las Palmas, cuando menos por motivos de residencia. Esperemos que exista alguno de Tenerife entre esos magistrados, pues la orden de paralización procedía de Canaria.
Tenemos la esperanza de que esta obra esté detenida poco tiempo, considerando lo importante que es para nuestra Isla. Sean quienes sean los que protesten, a poco que los jueces se pronuncien con cautela este puerto seguirá adelante. Estamos convencidos de que el puerto de Granadilla será una realidad porque lo quiere el pueblo de una isla que en estos momentos está pasando hambre. El puerto generará muchos puestos de trabajo durante su construcción, y muchos más cuando ya esté en funcionamiento. No obstante, constatamos la presencia de dos focos contrarios a esta imprescindible infraestructura, formados por individuos contrarios, lo repetimos, al progreso de Tenerife. Uno de esos focos está encerrado en el Sanedrín de Vegueta; un antro donde moran individuos ruines y perversos hasta la médula, que tanto daño le están haciendo al Archipiélago. Esos siniestros personajes se han inventado el "gran" que anteponen al nombre de Canaria, con el único fin de hacer más daño todavía con la confusión y el engaño perpetuo. El otro foco nefasto para la principal isla del Archipiélago se oculta -quién lo iba a decir- en la ULL. Se trata de algunos profesores manipulados por falsos ecologistas, que a su vez están comandados desde Las Palmas, así como por personajes enemigos de Tenerife por sí mismos; es decir, individuos que odian a nuestra Isla sin necesidad de ser inducidos a ello, pues lo llevan en la sangre como llevan los canes de la ira el virus de la rabia. Entre esos hay catedráticos analfabetos, alguno de ellos muy conocido entre nosotros pues lo sufrimos en esta Casa. Ahí están sus nombres publicados para que la gente los conozca. Nos causa gracia leer en esa lista la filiación de un señor que con sus disparates estuvo a punto de desbaratar este periódico. Preso de una demencia calenturienta, nos llevó al borde del desprestigio y tuvo que ser llamado a capítulo por sus dislates. Aquí lo conocíamos como el loquinario. Es tan ignorante, que no sabe ni donde está Granadilla. Es un inculto integral.
Como decimos, Tenerife pasa por momentos dramáticos, hasta el punto de que sus habitantes menos favorecidos -aquellos a los que la crisis está golpeando con más dureza- pasan hambre en estos momentos. La culpa la tiene el Gobierno socialista español, que nos ha arrastrado a la miseria. Antes, hasta los taxistas de Santa Cruz poseían buenos coches y eran casi millonarios. Canaria y la dominación colonial son dos males que urge erradicar. Una tarea difícil de abordar con los políticos que hoy por hoy nos rigen. Los políticos de los partidos estatales detestan a Tenerife -la isla más grande y favorecida por la naturaleza-, y sólo benefician a Las Palmas. Mientras tanto, los de CC consienten con cobardía. A todos ellos los aborrecemos por habernos salido traidores y babiecas.
Como somos conscientes de que esto no tiene solución, insistimos en la urgencia de que llegue la verdadera democracia, la verdadera libertad y la verdadera decencia; elementos todos ellos que resultan imposibles de conseguir sin soberanía.
Decíamos ayer, y no es una broma, que el Parlamento de Canarias debería cerrar al menos durante un año porque no sirve para nada. Sus diputados sólo valen para subirse los sueldos mientras el pueblo agoniza de inanición, y para reprobar a un periódico que les canta las cuarenta y les dice en la cara que su comportamiento es ignominioso. También están siempre listas sus "señorías" -¡cuánto nos repugna oír esa palabra!- para despojar de sus viviendas a familias honradas. El Parlamento, insistimos, debe cerrar sus puertas y no volverlas a abrir hasta que se convierta en el Parlamento constituyente de la nueva e imprescindible nación canaria. Insistir en la absurda y criminal españolidad de estas Islas resulta pernicioso para todos nosotros. Los peninsulares se llevan nuestras riquezas y a cambio nos dan hambre. Siguen rebajándonos al concepto en que ya nos colocaron los primeros soberanos de esta tierra. Nos referimos a Isabel de Castilla y Fernando de Aragón; unos monarcas de muy dudosa moral. Reyes que inclusive expulsaron a los judíos y protegieron a la Santa Inquisición y que, en el caso de Canarias, sustituyeron a los menceyes guanches por esa podredumbre llegada de España para avasallarnos y esquilmarnos con avaricia. Tinerfeños, canarios: el asunto es muy serio. Hay que acabar con nuestra situación colonial y con los que se encierran en el templo sagrado del Parlamento, para robarle al pueblo y condenarlo al hambre y al desprestigio de proclamar que la isla tercera es grande, mientras Tenerife ha de estar condenada al último lugar. Estos son los individuos que residen en el Parlamento de la calle Teobaldo Power. Don Paulino, no se quede quieto; haga algo."

RENAULT 4 PICK UP (1979)
"La versatilidad del Renault 4 permitió construír una pick up derivada del mismo.
El trabajo no estuvo a cargo de la propia Renault sino de una empresa relacionada, ACL-Teilhol, que también fue la encargada de fabricar los utilitarios “Rodeo”, derivados de Renault 4 y 5.
La fábrica estaba situada en la localidad de Arlanc. Llegó a construír nada menos que 60.000 ejemplares de utilitarios derivados de Renault en todas sus variantes.
Las pick ups se construían a partir de la versión furgón 4 F6. Tenían chasis ligeramente alargado y refuerzos en la suspensión, con el agregado de una barra estabilizadora en el eje trasero.
La pick up de Teilhol debutó en julio de 1978.
Poco tiempo después, una reestructuración empresarial de Renault, sumado al hecho de que Teilhol producía vehículos con su propia marca, hizo que se le retirara la licencia para producir la pick up derivada del Renault 4.
Finalmente, en 1986, Teilhol se declaró en quiebra."

Renault 4
"La Renault 4 (couramment appelée 4L) est une petite voiture populaire de grande diffusion de conception simple et pratique. Ce fut aussi la première application de la traction sur une voiture automobile de tourisme de la marque Renault après que cette technique a été adoptée sur l'Estafette en 1958.
Elle est construite d'août 1961 à la fin 1992 dans 28 pays, initialement avec la Dauphine sur l'île Seguin à Boulogne-Billancourt ainsi qu'à l'usine Renault de Flins, en Espagne (par Fasa-Renault), en Argentine par IKA-Renault, en Italie par Alfa Romeo (sous licence), au Maroc, à Madagascar, en Afrique du Sud, puis en Slovénie pour les dernières années de sa production.
La Renault 4 connut un grand succès auprès des PME, des artisans, de la gendarmerie (c'était l'une des voitures françaises de l'époque qui permettait de conduire avec le képi sur la tête), mais également auprès des PTT, de France Télécom ou EdF dans sa version fourgonnette F4 ; ces contrats lui donnèrent une très grande visibilité.
En France, la Renault 4 fut en tête des ventes de 1962 à 1965 (succédant à la Renault Dauphine), puis de 1967 à 1968. Elle reste aujourd'hui [Quand ?] la deuxième voiture française la plus vendue avec 8 135 424 exemplaires derrière la Peugeot 206 et juste devant le duo Renault 9 et 11."
(...)
"Moteurs utilisés sur la Renault 4 au fil des années4 :
- 603 cm3 (49 x 80) : puissance 23 ch et couple de 4,3 mkg. Monté sur R3 (modèles 1962) ;
- 747 cm3 (54,5 x 80) : puissance 27,6 ch à 30 ch et couple de 5,1 à 5,6 mkg ;
- 782 cm3 (55 x 80) à partir des modèles 1972 : puissance 30 ch et couple de 5,4 mkg ;
- 845 cm3 (58 x 80) avec option 5 CV : puissance 30 ch et couple de 5,9 mkg. Montée en série pour 1983 ;
- 956 cm3 (65 x 72) : puissance 34 ch et couple de 6,2 mkg. Monté sur les derniers modèles TL Savane à partir de mai 1986 ;
- 1 108 cm3 (70 x 72) : puissance 34 ch et couple de 7,5 mkg. Équipe en série la 4 GTL à partir du début 1978."
(...)
Versions
- La R3
"La R3 est une déclinaison économique avec le petit « moteur Billancourt » de 603 cm³ « sous-alésé » dérivé du moteur de la 4 CV. (...) Elle ne fut produite que de 1961 à 1962, le nombre total d'exemplaires construits varie selon les estimations entre 2 526 et 2 571, ce qui en fait un modèle extrêmement recherché par les collectionneurs aujourd'hui."
- La R4 L
"À côté de la R3 et de la R4 de base — sensiblement équivalente à la R3 dans sa présentation — il existait une déclinaison « Luxe » dite R4 L, elle se caractérisait par sa troisième vitre latérale et différents accessoires et baguettes inox, qui la rendait plus luxueuse.
Cette version, qui s'appela bientôt R4 L Export, fut la plus vendue. À tel point que l'appellation générique de la Renault 4 deviendra progressivement 4L. Par rapport à la version de base, qui possédait des sièges du type « strapontins suspendus » de même type que la 2 CV, la R4 L Export possédait des sièges plus élaborés et plus confortables (séparés à l'avant) et une banquette arrière rabattable."
- La Parisienne (1963)
- Les R4 Export, 4 TL et TL Savane
"Hormis le modèle de base, la Renault traverse la fin des années 1960 et les années 1970 sous la forme de la R4 « Export », qui devint la 4 TL pour 1976. (...)
En 1986, le modèle TL est rebaptisé « TL Savane » (...) En 1989, Renault équipe ce modèle du « pack sécurité » (...) "
- La 4 GTL
"Début 1978, la 4 GTL reprend la formule qui a fait le succès de la Renault 5 GTL : un gros « moteur Cléon-Fonte » de 1 108 cm3 retravaillé pour consommer moins (5,4 litres aux 100) et des bandes de protection latérales grises avec pare-chocs et crosses avant assortis. La version GTL supplantera rapidement la 4 TL.
En mai 1986, lors du remaniement de la gamme, la GTL devient « GTL Clan », (...)
En 1989, Renault revient à de plus banales jantes tôles, et équipe ce modèle du même « pack sécurité » que la version TL Savane.
Trop âgée pour pouvoir respecter les normes antipollution qui doivent arriver en 1993 (pot catalytique obligatoire), la production de Renault 4 est arrêtée fin 1992 avec une série « Bye-Bye » de R4 GTL Clan, des modèles numérotés de 1 à 1 000 devenus collectors."
- Séries spéciales
"Dès le début de la production, Renault propose des modèles à diffusion limitées, afin de relancer les ventes, ou encore rajeunir l'image de la voiture. Plusieurs séries spéciales sont ainsi créées : la « Safari » (1976), la « Jogging » (1981), la « Sixties » (1985) avec sa sellerie flashy et ses deux toits ouvrants, la « Carte jeune » (1991)...
Durant les années 1960, d'autres modèles nettement plus rares ont été produits, tels la « Plein air », la « Parisienne » ou encore des adaptations 4x4 produites par Sinpar."

50 aniversario del Renault 4L en España [1964-2014]
Emilio Salmoral
Periodista especializado en el mundo del motor. Colaborador en AUTO BILD
02/05/2014 - 10:35
"Aunque el Renault 4L llevaba fabricándose desde finales de 1963 (se hicieron 250 unidades), hasta el año siguiente no comenzaron las primeras entregas a los clientes.
Pero el Renault 4 no era un coche desconocido, ya que llevaba desde 1961 fabricándose en Francia.
Es posible que circularan algunas unidades construidas en el país vecino, pero tuvieron que pasar tres años para fabricar en España.
Por cierto, en Portugal también se construyó en la planta de Guarda y los aficionados sienten devoción por él.
Respecto a la versión francesa, el Renault 4L de FASA es diferente. Los parachoques son de un diseño distinto y tiene una especie de bigote en la placa de la matrícula posterior. Además, los coches españoles tampoco tienen los intermitentes laterales que sí tenían los franceses.
La historia nos ha demostrado que lo que buscaban los ingenieros españoles era, sobre todo, una mecánica con mayores capacidades. Por ello, nuestro 4L utilizó un motor de 845 centímetros cúbicos y 30 CV de potencia con los que podía ofrecer unas capacidades dinámicas superiores que los del 0,7 litros que también se vendía en Francia como versión de acceso.
Asimismo, todos los coches comercializados en España tienen un sistema eléctrico de 12 voltios que permite una mayor iluminación.
En 1965, Renault lanza al mercado la versión Super que ofrecía a su conductor unos asientos más lujosos y en 1967 empieza a utilizar los paragolpes del Renault 8."
(...)
"En 1968 se introduce al mercado el primer restyling del Renault 4. Las principales diferencias son una parrilla totalmente nueva que se hace evidente en todo el frontal del vehículo.
Pero los mayores cambios se encuentran en la mecánica: el R4 abandona el motor originario del 4/4 y estrena el tipo Sierra del Renault 8 que ofrecía una elevadísima fiabilidad. Con este bloque, la potencia se incrementó hasta los 35 CV. También era muy alabado por los conductores de su época el excelente sincronizado de su caja de cambios.
Así se mantuvo el Renault 4 hasta que en 1978 se sometió a su segunda puesta al día. La bonita parrilla de aluminio dejó paso a una de plástico; los intermitentes adoptaron el color naranja y ganaron en tamaño. Por cierto, volvió a cambiar de paragolpes. Como el Renault 8 ya no se fabricaba, recurrió a los que usaba el Renault 4 francés de 1968.
En 1982 se produjo un hecho histórico, ya que el 4L adoptó el motor de 1,1 litros con 40 CV. Este bloque es legendario para la marca francesa, ya que lo han usado coches como el 8 TS, Renault 5 o Twingo.
Pero el interior del Renault 4L seguía siendo el mismo y muchos conductores estaban cansados de ese salpicadero de tono beige que era demasiado simple.
En 1983 FASA decidió darle a su coche un aspecto visual más moderno y apostó el plástico negro, una renovada instrumentación y unos asientos más cómodos que llegaron a incluir hasta reposacabezas.
El último Renault 4 se fabricó en Valladolid en 1989.
Aunque el coche se comercializó hasta 1992, el que quería un 4L tenía que comprarse la versión Clan que estaba fabricada en Eslovenia y no tenía la calidad de construcción de nuestro paisano castellano."

Palavra de Deus / "O Próprio Deus, o Único, VII Parte quatro Deus é a fonte de vida para todas as coisas (I)"
Deus Todo-Poderoso diz: "Que Deus proveja ao universo tem um significado e uma aplicação bastante amplos. Deus não só provê as pessoas de suas necessidades diárias de comida e bebida, Ele provê a humanidade de tudo que ela precisa, incluindo tudo que as pessoas veem e as coisas que não podem ser vistas. Deus sustenta, gerencia e governa o ambiente de vida de que a humanidade precisa. Qualquer que seja o ambiente de que a humanidade precise em qualquer estação do ano, Deus o preparou. Qualquer atmosfera ou temperatura que seja adequada à existência humana também está sob o controle de Deus e nenhuma dessas regras ocorre por si só nem ao acaso; elas são o resultado do governo de Deus e de Seus feitos. o Próprio Deus é a fonte de todas essas regras e é a fonte de vida para todas as coisas. Esse é um fato estabelecido e incontestável, quer você acredite nele ou não, quer o veja ou não, quer possa entendê-lo ou não."

Summer project results in Cairo festival

CAIRO, Ill. -- While the adult leadership of Cairo was busy bickering about the balance of power and city finances this summer, a group of 44 youths was working toward a common goal.
They wanted to create something that would bring the people of the city together for fun and celebration.
What they made was a music festival.
Saturday night those young people hosted the Cairo Music Festival at the city's Box Field -- an event featuring eight music and dance performances for a crowd of hundreds.
The festival was a culmination of a summerlong program overseen by Kevin Schraer of the Delta Center -- a substance abuse and mental health treatment facility in Cairo. The program gave the students summer jobs through a grant provided by Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich's Summer Youth Employment Program.
The job was to organize a music festival. Schraer said the suggestion of having the festival came from him, but it was the youths who chose to act on it.
In the days when Cairo was a thriving riverboat town and commercial center, several blues clubs populated the waterfront in the city. Musicians like Muddy Waters, Ike Turner, Sonny Boy Williamson and Robert Johnson all had ties to the city.
Jared Stacy, 17, is a walking example of Cairo's musical heritage. His grandfather is a blues keyboardist. Jared plays keyboard, organ, piano and drums, while his brother, Joseph, 21, has perfected the art form of "beat boxing," or mimicking drums and record scratches.
"It's great for the community," Jared said just before the music started to flow Saturday. "We normally don't do big things like this, so this is something exciting."

Joseph Stacy's performance created excitement among the crowd of hundreds assembled at Box Field. Some in the audience danced along to the beats.
After his performance Joseph said events like the music festival are important for a community that has seen better days.
"This town, it's not bad because of the people," he said. "But things need to change. If it's going to change, the government is going to have to do something."
The festival drew more people than just the youth who organized the event and their friends. Gary Tillman, director of the Two Rivers Ministry outreach program in Cairo, attended to show his support for the positive work undertaken by the community's youths.
"It's a positive thing that we're able to get together tonight and listen to music and have a good time," Tillman said. "It's a much-needed thing.
"For the most part these are good kids, and we're out here to support them and have a good time with them."
People from outside Cairo also attended, like Sue Doctorman of Ullin, Ill. Doctorman said she's loved the city for years, and events like the music festival help take the negative attention away from the city.
"I just wanted to see people come together and have a good time," she said.
For musician Stace England, who recently recorded and released an album inspired by the city's history, the event showed that Cairo still has a chance at a happy future, despite the bickering among the city's leadership.
"Here's the future of Cairo. These kids have put this together and showed us what they can do," England said.

«Για όσους θα σωθούν, η χρηστική αξία του Πνεύματος είναι πολύ κατώτερη από αυτή της σάρκας: Το έργο του Πνεύματος είναι ικανό να καλύψει ολόκληρο το σύμπαν, να διαπεράσει όλα τα βουνά, τα ποτάμια, τις λίμνες και τους ωκεανούς, αλλά το έργο της σάρκας σχετίζεται πιο αποτελεσματικά με κάθε άτομο, με το οποίο έχει επαφή. Επιπλέον, η σάρκα του Θεού με απτή μορφή μπορεί να γίνει καλύτερα κατανοητή και να την εμπιστευτεί ο άνθρωπος και μπορεί να εμβαθύνει περαιτέρω τη γνώση του ανθρώπου για τον Θεό και να αφήσει στον άνθρωπο μια πιο βαθιά εντύπωση για τις πραγματικές πράξεις του Θεού. Το έργο του Πνεύματος περιβάλλεται από μυστήριο κι έτσι, είναι δύσκολο για τα θνητά όντα να το κατανοήσουν κι ακόμα πιο δύσκολο να το δουν κι έτσι, μπορούν να στηριχθούν μόνο σε κενές φαντασιώσεις. Το έργο της σάρκας, ωστόσο, είναι κανονικό, βασίζεται στην πραγματικότητα, διαθέτει πλούσια σοφία και είναι γεγονός που μπορεί να παρατηρηθεί και από τα μάτια του ανθρώπου. Ο άνθρωπος μπορεί προσωπικά να βιώσει τη σοφία του έργου του Θεού και δεν χρειάζεται να χρησιμοποιεί την πλούσια φαντασία του. Αυτή είναι η ακρίβεια και η πραγματική αξία του έργου του ενσαρκωμένου Θεού. Το Πνεύμα μπορεί να κάνει μόνο πράγματα που είναι αόρατα για τον άνθρωπο και που είναι δύσκολο να τα φανταστεί κανείς, όπως, για παράδειγμα, η διαφώτιση του Πνεύματος, η κίνηση του Πνεύματος και η καθοδήγηση του Πνεύματος, αλλά για τον νοήμονα άνθρωπο, αυτά δεν παρέχουν κάποιο σαφές νόημα. Παρέχουν μόνο ένα συγκινητικό ή ένα ευρύ νόημα και δεν μπορούν να δώσουν οδηγίες με λέξεις. Το έργο του ενσαρκωμένου Θεού, ωστόσο, είναι πολύ διαφορετικό: Έχει ακριβή καθοδήγηση μέσω λέξεων, έχει σαφές θέλημα και έχει σαφείς στόχους που απαιτεί. Κι έτσι, ο άνθρωπος δεν χρειάζεται να ψάχνεται ή να χρησιμοποιεί τη φαντασία του, πόσο μάλλον να κάνει εικασίες. Αυτή είναι η σαφήνεια του έργου στη σάρκα και η μεγάλη του διαφορά από το έργο του Πνεύματος. Το έργο του Πνεύματος είναι κατάλληλο μόνο για ένα περιορισμένο πεδίο και δεν μπορεί να αντικαταστήσει το έργο της σάρκας. Το έργο της σάρκας δίνει στον άνθρωπο πολύ ακριβέστερους και αναγκαίους στόχους και πολύ πιο πραγματική, πολύτιμη γνώση απ’ ότι το έργο του Πνεύματος».

Our Lady & The English Martyrs, Cambridge
stepneyrobarts.blogspot.co.uk/2013/02/our-lady-english-ma...
Yesterday I revisited St Peter for internals and finished of Cambridge, visiting seven Victorian built churches only one of which, Our Lady & The English Martyrs, is worth writing up.
At first sight I wrote OLEM off as a Victorian Gothic monstrosity but as I wandered around the exterior I was struck by the quality of the building and the interior stunned me with lots of rather good glass and impressive architecture (oh and apart from three revisits, Babraham, Guilden Morden and Stow cum Quy, that finished the north west quadrant).
The Church of Our Lady and the English Martyrs, or OLEM, is situated in the heart of the city of Cambridge. An imposing example of the 19th Century Gothic Revival, it was built to the designs of Dunn & Hansom of Newcastle between 1885 and 1890, and founded solely by Mrs Yolande Marie Louise Lyne-Stephens, a former ballet dancer at the Paris Opera and Drury Lane, London, and widow of a wealthy banker. She promised to build the church on the feast of Our Lady of the Assumption, and Monsignor Christopher Scott - the first Rector - also wished to commemorate the Catholic Martyrs who died between 1535 and 1681, over thirty of whom had been in residence at the University.
Designed by architects Dunn and Hansom of Newcastle and built by the Cambridge firm of Rattee and Kett, OLEM is constructed in Casterton, Ancaster and Combe Down Stone. The church is a traditional cruciform structure in the early-decorated style with a large tower at the crossing, a polygonal apse and a west bell tower with a 65-metre spire, visible for miles around Cambridge. Quite often, it is quoted by visitors and local residents as a location point. The approximate internal dimensions of the church are: length 48 meters [156 ft] width across the aisles 16 meters [51 ft] width at the transepts 22 meters [71 ft], the height of the nave 15 meters [71ft].
Inside and over the west door stands the figure of Our Lady of the Assumption crowned with lilies and standing on the crescent moon with the vanquished serpent beneath. The west window shows the English Martyrs arranged in two principal groups, the clergy on the south side with St John Fisher in their midst and the laity on the north grouped round St Thomas More.
Beside the South aisle is an ancient statue of Our Lady with the Child Jesus. This statue is understood to be a gift in 1850 from Emmanuel College, which was built on the site of a Dominican Priory dating back to 1274. The Church of the Black Friars of Cambridge contained a statue of Our Blessed Lady to which much pilgrimage was had. Although unconfirmed this could be that statue.
The Chapel of the Holy Souls with the book of Remembrance is located at the west end of the south aisle. The sculpture above the altar depicts the solace and relief of the Holy Souls in Purgatory through the intercession of Our Lady and the angel who comforted Our Lord in Gethsemane. The Chapel is now appropriately used at the two great Christian celebrations: at Easter for the Empty Tomb indicating the Risen Lord, and at Christmas for the Crib.
The aisle windows were almost completely destroyed when the church was struck by a bomb on 1941, but were subsequently replaced in their original form. They epitomise the various sufferings of the English Martyrs, their being brought before the Council, racked, hung, drawn and quartered in the sight and sympathy of the faithful. The windows of the north aisle portray Carthusians, St Thomas Moore, B. Margaret Pole and others, while the south aisle is made a “Fisher Aisle”, devoted to scenes from the life of St John, Cardinal Bishop of Rochester, who in so many important ways is identified with Cambridge.
The best general impression of the interior is obtained from the gateway in the iron screen dividing the nave from the ante-chapel. The heads of the four great preachers of Our Lady’s Graces are carved in the four corners of the nave. The windows along the nave represent saints connected with the Church in Britain, arranged approximately in chronological order from east to west with a few additional figures in the eastern windows.
The Rood which is between the nave and the sanctuary is of the type known as “Majestas”; the figure of Our Lord, with glorified wounds, robed in alb, stole and pallium [as High Priest] and crowned [as King “reigning from the Tree”]. This was the earliest type of crucifix; the realistic figure, now almost universal, did not come into general use until the beginning of the thirteenth century. The cross, inspired by that at Nuremberg, is about 6 metres high, carved in oak; the figures of Christ and of Our Lady and of Saint John are of Kauri pine. They were carved locally by Mr. B. Maclean Leach and completed and blessed in 1914.
Beyond the present, modern altar is the High Altar with the relics of Saints Felix and Constantia, martyrs of the early Church. The tabernacle and ornaments of the altar are of exquisite French workmanship from Lyons. The baldacchino which covers the High Altar is similar to that over the tomb of Robert the Wise (1275-1343) at Santa Chiara, Naples. It is one of the earliest forms of adornment of a Christian altar. At the top is the figure of Our Lord in glory supported on each side by angels in act of adoration.
The design and the re-ordering of the sanctuary was done by Mr. Gerard Goalen of Harlow after the Second Vatican Council. On 7th April, 1973, Bishop Charles Grant consecrated the present central. The original High Altar has subsequently been used mainly for reservation of the Blessed Sacrament.
Devocional diario | Ya entiendo el verdadero significado de “Consumado es”, lo que dijo el Señor Jesús
Esa mañana de domingo era como cualquier otra, cuando abrí mi Biblia, comencé mis devociones espirituales y vi que Hebreos 9:28 decía: “Así también Cristo, habiendo sido ofrecido una vez para llevar los pecados de muchos, aparecerá por segunda vez, sin relación con el pecado, para salvación de los que ansiosamente le esperan”. Cuando pensé en esto detenidamente, no pude evitar sentirme confundida. “Eso no puede ser”, pensé. “¿Acaso cuando el Señor Jesús dijo ‘Consumado es’ en la cruz no quiso decir que la obra de Dios para salvar al hombre se había completado totalmente? Cuando el Señor regrese, podremos entrar en el cielo inmediatamente y tener un banquete con el Señor, ¿cómo puede ser que esto diga que el Señor Jesús aparecerá de nuevo para salvar al hombre cuando Él regrese? ¿Qué es lo que significa esto?”.
Cuanto más pensaba en ello, más dudas tenía en mi corazón … “¡Esto no puede ser! Debo encontrar a alguien para compartir esta palabra conmigo”, pensé. Justo entonces, me vino a la mente mi compañera de trabajo de la iglesia, la hermana Xiao Xue. Solíamos hablar de la Biblia y justo en ese mismo momento la hermana Xiao Xue volvió de una reunión en otro sitio; no había nada que no me pudiera ayudar a encontrar.

KW Institute for Contemporary Art in Berlin is delighted to announce the appointment of Juan A. Gaitán as curator of the 8th Berlin Biennale for Contemporary Art. The 8th Berlin Biennale will take place in spring 2014.
Juan A. Gaitán (Canada/Colombia) is an independent writer and curator, currently based in Mexico City and Berlin. He is trained as an artist and art historian at University of British Columbia and Emily Carr Institute of Art and Design in Vancouver (Canada).

His writings have been published in several journals, including Afterall, The Exhibitionist, Fillip, and Mousse. His most recent exhibition, Material Information, spans three venues in Bergen (Norway), and looks for a renewed critical approach to the contemporary global distribution of labor from the perspective of arts and crafts. He is presently member of the acquisitions committee at FRAC Nord-Pas de Calais in Dunquerke (France).
The Berlin Biennale for Contemporary Art is since its fourth edition one of the institutions supported by the German Federal Cultural Foundation as „outstanding cultural event“. The support of 2.5 Million Euros per edition ensures planning stability, enabling the organizers to address issues of content in an experimental way.
Since the first edition in 1998, the Berlin Biennale has become a major international event for contemporary art. Located in the midst of Berlin’s vibrant cultural scene in the fast-changing capital of Germany, the Berlin Biennale has received an enthusiastic response from the audience as an experimental, forward-looking and contextual show. The previous seven editions of the Berlin Biennale explored a variety of exhibition formats and involved diverse curatorial agendas.

M.), Koyo Kouoh (Founding Director and Artistic Director, Raw Material Company - Center for Art, Knowledge and Society, Dakar), Matthias Mühling (Head of Department, Curator, Städtische Galerie im Lenbachhaus, Munich), Bisi Silva (Director and Founder, Centre for Contemporary Art, Lagos), and Patricia Sloane (Associate Curator, MUAC Museo Universitario Arte Contemporáneo and advisor to the Head of Visual Arts, UNAM Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México, Mexico City).

Our Lady & The English Martyrs, Cambridge
stepneyrobarts.blogspot.co.uk/2013/02/our-lady-english-ma...
Yesterday I revisited St Peter for internals and finished of Cambridge, visiting seven Victorian built churches only one of which, Our Lady & The English Martyrs, is worth writing up.
At first sight I wrote OLEM off as a Victorian Gothic monstrosity but as I wandered around the exterior I was struck by the quality of the building and the interior stunned me with lots of rather good glass and impressive architecture (oh and apart from three revisits, Babraham, Guilden Morden and Stow cum Quy, that finished the north west quadrant).

We leave Cusco at 6:00am in a private transport and drive for an approximated 4h through part of the Sacred Valley to then head towards Lares (3100m/10168ft), a little rural village located in the beautiful valley of the same name, hosting some well-known hot springs. Upon arrival, we leave our equipment and continue towards Choquecancha, an impressive archaeological site with amazing views of the neighboring valleys. After our visit, we hike back to Lares, where we can enjoy an evening dip in its hot springs before or after our dinner is served. Our camp will be set next to the thermal baths and access is free the whole night.
Day 2: Lares (Hot Spring) - Ipsaycocha)
After an early wake up and breakfast, we meet our horsemen and horses and leave our campsite at around 9.00am to walk along an ascending path that will lead us to Huacahuasi, (3600m/11808ft). This remote Andean community is located in an impressive valley, where the typical lifestyle and house constructions of the Quechua communities living at high altitude can be appreciated. We stop to visit a typical house and family, before we enjoy our lunch. In the early afternoon, we continue our hike ascending toward the mountain pass of Ipsay (4450m/14596ft/3h), walking across little communities and Andean flats (pampas) with the presence of llamas and alpacas. The pass offers impressive views of Mount Veronica and the surrounding snow-capped peaks. Just half an hour from this point is Ipsayqocha, a beautiful lagoon next to which we set our camp and spend the night, amidst awesome scenery.
Day 3: Ipsaycocha - Patacancha - Ollantaytambo - Aguas Calientes
After two full days of hiking today is much easier. After an early breakfast we walk downhill through a wide-open valley for about 2½ hours until we arrive at the village of Patacancha. We will have a chance to view some textiles made by the people of this community - the high quality weavings are famous for their intricate designs reflecting aspects of their everyday lives and culture. After we also get the chance to walk slowly down the valley to Willoq, another Quechua village where the locals still wear their traditional dress and are proud to maintain their cultural identity. From Patacancha we will take our transport further down the valley to Inca town of Ollantaytambo where we will rest and have lunch, then catch our afternoon train to AguasCalientes. This is an amazing journey that starts in the Quechua highlands and slowly descends to lush tropical vegetation as we near AguasCalientes. Total journey time about 1½ hours. Tonight we stay in the small quaint town of Machu Picchu.
Day 4: Aguas Calienties - Machu Picchu - Cusco
5 am breakfast then at 5.30am we get the bus to Machu Picchu. We need to depart early so those who wish to climb Huayna Picchu will need to sign up before the 2 hour guided tour.

PRIMER ENCUENTRO LATINOAMERICANO DE MURALES
MARCHA MUNDIAL POR LA PAZ Y LA NO VIOLENCIA
www.marchamundialperu.org/encuentrograf.html
En el marco de actividades proyectadas para la Marcha Mundial por la Paz y la No
Violencia, -acontecimiento Internacional de responsabilidad social que durante todo
el año 2009, simultáneamente, en más de 100 países, realizará distintas iniciativas
para solicitar el término de las guerras y la violencia- se presenta en la ciudad de
Arequipa, el Primer Encuentro Latinoamericano de Murales por la Paz. Una
propuesta inédita que busca, alineándose al proyecto mundial, crear conciencia
global de la necesidad de una verdadera Cultura de Paz y de rechazo hacia todo tipo
de violencia.
Saliendo de los espacios habituales de representación, la intervención de un espacio
público a través de la realización de murales vincula el diálogo, el arte y la
comunidad. Imágenes públicas a gran escala que se convierten en parte del paisaje
urbano y se integran al imaginario de sus habitantes.
El mural, en su expresión básica de arte social, poblacional -sea estructurado o
desarrollado con el lenguaje del graffiti- enfoca al arte como fenómeno vital y
explora las posibilidades expresivas del sincretismo, a partir de un espacio público y
sus alrededores. La introspección particular pasa a formar parte de la reflexión sobre
la condición humana. Así lo definimos, como “el arte que implica al otro”, donde la
participación del público es el motor del diálogo.
El Encuentro permitirá difundir conceptos de paz y no violencia a través de las
imágenes visuales; pero no sólo difundir, sino recuperar la función del arte en la
sociedad, como aquel gestor de ideas, de mensajes, donde el público deja serlo para
transformarse en principal actor y el ámbito se enriquece.
El resultado será entonces, un agente de cambio social que pueda llegar a influir
humanamente sobre las condiciones de vida e identidad colectiva.
OBJETIVO GENERAL
Concientizar a la comunidad arequipeña sobre la Paz y la No Violencia a través de
Pinturas Murales, que se instalarán en la ciudad de Arequipa a partir de octubre de
2009.
OBJETIVOS ESPECÍFICOS
Contribuir a la Revaloración Urbana del Barrio de IV Centenario, barrio tradicional
arequipeño que sufre los efectos de la violencia cotidiana, colaborando de este modo
con la población vinculante y promoviendo la utilización del arte como una forma de
lucha contra la violencia.
Fortalecer el aporte social de artistas latinoamericanos, como un ejemplo de paz y
hermandad entre las naciones.
Generar un espacio de intercambio cultural y didáctico entre los participantes
latinoamericanos y los artistas arequipeños, durante su estadía, con miras a
desarrollar mayor compromiso del artista arequipeño con la sociedad y la Cultura de
Paz.
DESCRIPCIÓN Y DINAMICA
Tomando en cuenta la importancia que tiene la pintura mural urbana para comunicar
conceptos y valores a los seres humanos, se le ha elegido como una de las principales
actividades de la Marcha Mundial en Arequipa, para motivar la toma de conciencia
sobre la Paz y la No Violencia, a la que aspiramos.
Reconociendo que Latinoamérica es un crisol étnico-cultural y su historial en el arte
mural es vasto; el Encuentro convoca y pretende contar, con la participación de 15
Colectivos de Muralistas Latinoamericanos, en especial artistas jóvenes; para que,
cada quien desde su bagaje, sepa expresar y compartir un mismo mensaje.
Sobre el espacio público, el Encuentro propone la revaloración urbana a través de la
intervención artística del Estadio Melgar, Edificio ubicado en un barrio céntrico de
Arequipa, que con los años, se ha ido deteriorando producto de la delincuencia. La
intención es que las pinturas murales sean el punto de partida de la puesta en valor
de la zona, apuntando a mejorar también en alumbrado y seguridad. Esta propuesta
encuentra antecedentes en proyectos como Colores para Tirana, una forma de darle
nueva vida y oxigenar un poco a esta ciudad Albana que sufrió una gran crisis
económica en los años previos al 2000; o Favela Painting, que intenta revalorizar la
belleza de las estructuras urbanas, en las que el gran porcentaje de sus habitantes
intentan vivir con tranquilidad y honestidad y dejar atrás el estigma creado por la
droga principalmente. Aunque en ambos casos se afrontan realidades mucho más
afectadas que la del barrio arequipeño circundante al Estadio, son ejemplos de lo
trascendente que puede ser una imagen con contenido, para la vida cotidiana, en un
ambiente marginal.
El Encuentro, cuyas Bases serán dadas a conocer a principios de julio de 2009,
contará con un total de 15 pinturas murales.
En este contexto, se realizará una pre-selección a partir del dossier enviado por cada
Colectivo. Los seleccionados serán invitados a participar del Encuentro.
La dinámica del Encuentro implica la presencia de los artistas en Arequipa, -del 28
de septiembre al 04 de octubre- su participación en talleres y la convivencia con
artistas locales.
La organización cubrirá viáticos de alojamiento, transporte interno y consumo para
los concursantes durante su estadía.
Cada Colectivo debe interactuar y socializar con los artistas locales, a través de la
convivencia y la realización de un taller de mural-graffiti; teniendo completa libertad
de acción para que puedan desarrollar sus propuestas.
El tiempo destinado para la realización de los murales será máximo de tres días,
partiendo el 30 de septiembre de 2009.
El Jurado, para la pre-selección, estará compuesto por un representante de la
Alianza Francesa, un representante del Instituto Nacional de Cultura y un
representante de Mundo Sin Guerras Perú. Quienes evaluarán el dossier de los
participantes y decidirán quienes serán invitados.
Finalmente, los murales pasarán a ser parte del patrimonio de la ciudad,
proponiéndose que el Encuentro quede instaurado anualmente. Así se prevée que los
mejores murales permanezcan pintados, hasta completar el perímetro del Estadio
con series de 15 murales. De tal manera que sea un vehículo comunicacional que
trascienda en la sociedad.
Las Bases del Encuentro se encontrarán en formato PDF para ser descargadas en
www.marchamundialperu.org/encuentrograf.html
BENEFICIOS DEL ENCUENTRO
Las obras formarán parte del patrimonio de la ciudad de Arequipa. Reconocida por la
UNESCO como patrimonio cultural de la humanidad.
El Encuentro contribuirá con la puesta en valor del barrio circundante al Edificio que
servirá de soporte para las obras1.
1 Barrio de IV Centenario. Arequipa
El Encuentro tendrá un período limitado de ediciones hasta completar el perímetro
completo del Estadio. La comisión organizadora se responsabilizará por el
mantenimiento de cada obra.
El Encuentro y el registro de la obra serán difundidos en más de cien países como una
de las principales actividades de la Marcha Mundial, a través de la agencia de prensa
internacional Pressenza y los circuitos de difusión de la organización de la Marcha.
Tanto la dinámica del Encuentro como las obras terminadas serán registradas y
publicadas en un catálogo de colección que tendrá distribución a nivel
Latinoamericano.
Los artistas tendrán la oportunidad durante su estadía, de vivenciar la cultura
arequipeña in-situ, mediante la convivencia con artistas locales y el acercamiento a
la sociedad arequipeña.
Todo esto hace del Primer Encuentro Latinoamericano de Murales por la Paz un
evento inédito que marcará una pauta en el arte latinoamericano actual.

COMISIÓN ORGANIZADORA
Arequipa, mayo de 2009
LEVANTAMIENTO DE MURO PARA LA REALIZACIÓN DEL ENCUENTRO
ANTECEDENTES
El Encuentro de Murales no tiene antecedentes en el país.
Iniciativas como esta se han desarrollado en países como Armenia, España, Brasil,
México, Chile y Argentina. Ya sea por la recuperación, a través de las imágenes, de
una zona urbana deprimida, o por la intervención de espacios públicos.
UBICACIÓN
El muro propuesto es el cerco
perimétrico del Estadio Mariano
Melgar, ubicado en el Barrio IV
Centenario. A 5 minutos de la Plaza
de Armas de Arequipa.
El área destinada para la realización
de los murales es el cerco
perimétrico de la Tribuna Oriente,
ubicado a ambos lados de la torre,
calle Isaac Recabarren, cercana a la
Av. Independencia.
DIMENSIONES
El tramo tiene una longitud aproximada de
114 m. incluyendo la torre. (cerco: 104m,
torre 10m). La altura del muro tiene un
promedio de 4.50m. (Tomando la torre como
referencia, el lado derecho tiene altura útil
de 4.05m.) La altura aproximada de la torre
es 16.50m. Cuenta con un área aproximada
de 513.0 m2.
DESCRIPCIÓN
El material empleado del cerco perimétrico del Estadio Melgar es concreto caravista,
cubierto con pintura latex y esmalte de color celeste y azul. Su estado de
conservación es bueno, se considera apto para el pintado de los murales.
LEVANTAMIENTO MURO
En el levantamiento se ha segmentado el muro en 15 tramos de 6.93m de ancho cada
uno, haciendo un total de 104m., sin contar la torre. Únicamente se está
considerando el área que no está enrejada. En promedio el área por segmento es de
29.45m2.
CONCLUSIONES Y RECOMENDACIONES
Es posible realizar pinturas murales sobre esa superficie.
Se recomienda darle un tratamiento previo con base de color blanco antes del
pintado de los murales.
Pueden realizarse un promedio de 15 murales de 30m2.
La torre puede destinarse para un mural especial, vertical, que pueda unir las
propuestas de ambos lados.
March is apparently question month. To ask me a question, post a comment here: toddpage.livejournal.com/370916.html or send me a flickr mail. [Or leave it here if anomynity is not of any importance - the lj post comments are screened so that only I can see them]
All questions: Here
Question 5:What was it like, first realizing that you might be gay? When did you first wonder, when did you accept it, when did you act on it? How did you feel about it all?
The first time I realized I was gay I was 12 years old, taking a shower. I was not thinking about anything in particular, and out of nowhere, as I leaned to turn the water off, I realized: "Shit. I'm gay." I had never really lined things up. I knew I tended to try to help certain people at the store more than others. I'd never considered the fact that the ones I made efforts to help were men, had chest and facial hair, and were usually of a slightly larger build. [Yeah, even then I pursued the "bear" type.] All of a sudden things clicked into place. I was terrified. I hated it. I decided right then and there, that I would not be. I would not be gay. I would control it. Stop it. I could make this not be true, and like girls. I would find a woman, make her my wife, have kids and a dog, and live the straight life. There was nothing to say I couldn't fix this. And like that, I turned a switch in my mind off, and began some pretty hardcore denial. I still tended to help certain customers, and, suffice to say, I was not immune to knowledge of the internet. But somehow I managed to convince myself that despite the fact that I still gazed at men, I was straight. I wasn't aware of it even. I did denial extremely well, and forgot my discovery [until I was ready to deal with it.] It wasn't terribly difficult, honestly. Few people in my school interested me... in that way... and it would've been extremely complicated to be out at my all-boys catholic high school as it is. Either way, I ignored it. I went on one, awkward, date with my best female friend from high school. [Our theatre program did shows with the sister school's girls.]
My freshman year of college, I sunk further in, which led to my second realization. I dated a girl from my school who is a wonderful person, and very pretty, for about 2 weeks. Maybe 3. We'd hold hands, and cuddle when the group of us watched movies, and we went to dinner and a movie once. Every night, I'd walk her home to her dorm, and give her a hug, then walk to my dorm. Something missing from this situation? Ah, yes, at this point, we perhaps should have kissed. Something about it, the idea in itself, held me back. And the last evening... 2.5 weeks in, when it could be put off no longer, as she was my girlfriend at this point... I realized that I needed to kiss her good night. And as I leaned in to do so, it hit me again, in this order. "Oh, man... I really don't want to do this. FUCK. I'm gay." As I'm leaning in, I maneuver into what is clearly the worlds most awkward hug, and uncomfortably tell her "Good night"
Some history of me at this point. I am a pius, naive, freshman at a very conservative catholic college - my college was in fact #2 in the nation for most homophobic on the Princeton Review I have never touched alcohol, and at this point still believe I will not do so until I am 21. I go to church every sunday, and I go to "Prayer and Praise" every wednesday evening. As a general rule, I stop by the Harkins Hall chapel once every day or so because it is small, quiet, and I can pray there. I do all my homework in the chapel basement. I have hidden myself in this. I believe what I am told, but there is no strong faith behind it. It is a place I can fit in, where I know the rules and what is expected of me. At the same time I fight anyone who says that being gay is evil. [I HATE the word homosexual and homosexuality. It's so clerical.]
It is 2 am on a friday night, in late november, and I am now re-realizing I am gay. I am realizing that this may not be something for me to control. I am still very much hateful of the fact. This turns inward. I hate myself, and loath every part of me that makes me feel this way. I am already an outcast from most social situations, and awkward, the last thing I needed was this extra load. People would hate me. All of them. I'm sure of it. All my friends will leave me and hate me. I'll have to start enjoying shopping, and I'll probably have to listen to Madonna instead of punk rock. But no. Maybe this is still fixable. I had convinced myself that with great prayer, God could take this away. I started being more vigilant, praying daily, fixating myself on anything I could that would help me push away from this. I told the girl that something was up, and I needed to figure it out. She respected that, and I think knew EXACTLY what was up. I would cry in church, praying so hard that I shook, hoping and calling to God to let me find women attractive. Or at least to stop finding men attractive. Anything. Anything to avoid dealing with or accepting it, me. Somehow, this didn't work. Surprising, I know.
So, I had to deal with it. I had to start accepting me. That this was an uncontrollable aspect of who and what I was. It was a piece of me. It was something that had been created in me, like the color of my eyes, or the color of my hair. I turned to the internet. Looking at forums, and still looking for loopholes. I joined a forum for the young and gay and talked it through with people there. I talked with some people who had experience, [Bruin, creator of Bear With Me gave me an excellent X-Men analogy, that I remember specifically.] All of this occurred over the length of the second semester.
No one else knew at this point. I had come to a sort of shaky acceptance with it... but it was very weak. I wasn't confident in it, and I still hated it. I still didn't want it to be true, but I was at least aware that it was something outside of my control. Which, to be fair, is a big step in it's own. I was carrying it by myself though. Till a cast party. It was the second cast party for Brigadoon. There was a particularly homophobic person in the cast, who had written a letter in The Cowl the week before comparing homosexuality to cancer. As a joke, we had discussed one of the guys drunkenly kissing him. [We we're freshman, give us a break] This was the second time I had ever had alcohol, and I still hadn't learned how to drink, or how to control when I drink. My friend, Joe, suggests I do it, and I blurt out "No. Not until I come out."
And then I realize what I'd done, and leave. Joe follows me, and confronts me... I tell him it was a joke, and he rolls his eyes. It's the next day and we're having dinner when he asks me about it. And I slowly tell him that I thought it was true. I didn't know where on the kinsey scale I was [I'd recently discovered the scale, and I thought it was fancy] but I had a hunch it was true. At some point in the next month, the girl I'd dated asked me what had happened and I'd told her too. That was two people. And I had told them I was still not sure. Come graduation week. I was really the only person in my group of friends on campus for the week, and I read books the entire time. I read Augusten Burrough's 'Running with Scissors', then Dry, then David Sedaris' "Me Talk Pretty One Day" Believe it or not, these were the first books I'd read about or by gay people - at least to my knowledge. I was still looking for loopholes but I was recognizing that other people were like this, and they managed to survive life. I started gaining a little bit of confidence. I went home for the summer and, very shyly, got the 2 books on gay subjects out of my library, and read through them, looking for understanding. Looking for some kind of knowledge about who and what I was. I tend to read about things before I go into them. Alot.
Somehow, I decided I was ready to come out to my parents. I don't know if I decided I was ready, or if I decided it was the right thing to do. This was a horrible decision at this time, because my confidence levels were still extremely low. I nervously and carefully sat them down at the dinner table, feeling my heart in my chest. Terrified. The second or third most awful feeling I've ever felt. And I told them "I think I'm gay." I had prepared for various responses, based on my books, but life, surprisingly [sarcasm], doesn't run like books. They did not express hate, or anger, and told me that they would never love me any less... but that they did not think I was gay. That perhaps it was a phase. That everyone questioned it at some point or another, and that I needed more time to know for sure. Essentially, that the conclusion I had clawed my way too, was wrong. I didn't know how to respond, and instead of standing my ground, conceded that it was possible. We made dinner and watched Shrek. [My parents, by the way, are amazingly supportive people, who I have put through a lot, and who love and accept me for who I am, through everything I've done. They take the details of my life quite well. I don't want anyone thinking less of the two wonderful people who brought my life. This is something that for them, as for me, would take some adjusting to. And they have adjusted to it, now, and support me fully]
Nothing further was said. The response I'd received had shaken the confidence. I still knew I was attracted to guys, but what happened from there? I told another friend, a close female friend from PC, and her response was amazing. She told me she was proud of me for coming to terms with it, and that she was so happy for me. She was so... supportive. The people I'd told so far had expressed acceptance... but this was the first time support in it had come. It was surprising, and my confidence in myself and my ability to cope with it grew. I went back to school and started talking a little less furtively. And on October 10th, I got an IM from Joe: "So... tomorrows national coming out day... you gonna tell everyone?" I had never even thought about telling the rest of my friends. "I guess so. Might as well now, gonna have to do it eventually, right?" "Yup." I then sent the girlfriend an IM telling her my plan.
So, yeah. I came out on National Coming Out Day. Not because of the holiday, but because the holiday had kind've reminded me that it was something I should do. All my friends were in the cafe, eating lunch, and before some left for class, I said "I have to say something." *silence* "I'm queer."
Oh, how I regret saying "I'm queer". I had chosen it carefully, it was an umbrella term, and it allowed me retreat, should things turn a direction that I didn't favor. 3 or 4 raised their eyebrows in shock, 2 laughed. [Kaitlin told me later her exact reaction was "Well, yeah."] Only 1 person in my group of friends reacted poorly... and she kind've cast herself away. I still don't talk to her. It was kind've amazing. I could start talking about all the shit I had bottled up openly, and I didn't have to fit any mold. I was, amusingly, now requested by friends to do things like go to the mall, or go dancing. I think this was hilarious. I had not been hiding any desires or actions... so upon coming out I still hated shopping, and still, for the most part, was not interested in an evening of dancing. Still my confidence grew, and I got to be really okay with it. I started having recognizable crushes, and though I was still uncomfortable with some aspects, I made progress.
That covers all of the acceptance bit. It's still a process for me in some ways. I notice I have this instinct within me to push against anything stereotypical. I refused to listen to Madonna, or Cher... would not even give them a try, and I still respond to some "gay" things with a negative attitude. I'm working on this. I recently listened to Madonna, to give it a chance. I still don't really like it, but at least now I've given it a chance. I mean, the girl has some definite pipes... and Like a Prayer is hella fun, but it's just not something I'd listen to for the hell of it. I'm teaching myself to recognize that doing things that are stereotypical aren't bad, as long as you aren't doing them to fit the stereotype. And not doing them to avoid the stereotype is just another way of letting the stereotype control you.
When I first acted on it is a tricky business. There had been some minor flirting, back and forth, with a freshman named ... gah, we'll say Alex. Alex was bearish, and cute, but personality-wise, not at all a match for me. As has been discussed, this is important. I was not really interested, and had tried to express that in nice ways... or avoid it anyway. We did crew together for a show called My Sister In This House, and at the second cast party, I had a lot of beer. Like, A-LOT. This was probably my 7th time ever drinking [ a year later ] and I was pretty hammered. Okay, very hammered. I was blurrily aware of the goings-ons, it was very late, and few people we're left at the gathering. I was warm, and I came to realize it was because Alex was standing behind me, with his arms around me. It felt nice, and I was hammered, so I let it occur. Then he started to pull me into the room where no one else was. A little something triggered in my brain, and I resisted. But another tug and I followed. We were standing in the room when this exchange happened:
Alex: "You're beautiful."
Me: *pause* "You smell like soap."
Alex: "Is that a good thing?"
Me: *long pause* "Yes."
At this point, he licked the back of my neck, which felt nice, but weird, but didn't have much [drunk] time to recognize it, as he leaned in and put his tongue straight in my mouth.
This woke me up pretty quickly. I'm pretty glad, too, had it been a subtle kiss first, I might have a story I'd regret. Who knows though. I told him "No." and he asked me if that meant just now, or ever. I said I didn't know.
He didn't talk to me for a year. I'm not entirely sure I blame him. I'm not sure if that counts as acting on it, as I was barely aware, and didn't really act except for to realize I was not comfortable with it. But it was my first kiss, regardless. My first real acting on it was a year later. February of my junior year of college, and began with a meeting for coffee, then a kiss in a Chili's parking lot. It moved forward from there into my first relationship.
To sum up: Ages 12 and 18, never really wondered, it just HIT me, 19 and 20, and I hated it. Alot. I don't anymore though. I'm really actually comfortable with it now. I like that it's a part of me, and I no longer feel any desire to change it. I don't believe in gay pride, because I think it's something embedded within me, just like I wouldn't be proud of having blue eyes, I wouldn't be proud of being gay... but I do embrace it as a part of me, and support it. I am comfortable with who I am, finally, at 22, and it feels glorious. I've gotten beyond accepting it, and I support it in myself. Whenever you read about people's coming outs, they always refer to coming out to themself first. I think we can add a step and that is supporting themself in that. I am finally there. Not without my share of work left to accomplish further, but I have made great progress, and I feel certain I will make more in times to come.

This account is officially actively taking part of Year 2 of my 365 project.
3/7/09
A few weeks back I blogged about the latest Flickr feature, galleries. I've been using and making galleries now for a few weeks and thought I'd take a second to record my follow up observations after my initial post on the launch. I've been making one new gallery a day since Flickr launched the service.
Conceptually I think the idea of allowing users the ability to curate galleries of images on Flickr super interesting -- one of the more interesting ways to use the service actually. Practically speaking though I think that their are some serious flaws to how this service has been designed and I think that it could be significantly improved.
Problem #1: Flickr will not allow either moderate/restricted images or secretly NIPSA (not in public site areas) censored material to be put into galleries.
Flickr has three ways that they censor your images. The first is simple. If they don't like your image they just delete it (and maybe your entire account along with it).
The second is a less harsh public way. Either you can voluntary mark your own images as restricted or if you don't they might. When they do this your images are marked "moderate" or "restricted" on the image and you are made aware of the Flickr act.
The third way is a secret more nefarious way. Flickr uses a method whereby they will secretly mark your image NIPSA. Sometimes this happens even while to your face they will let you know that your image has been reviewed as "safe" by Flickr staff. You have no way of knowing which of your images have been secretly marked NIPSA and which have not. For a while Flickr had my entire photostream marked as NIPSA.
Whatever the case, neither moderate/restricted content or secret NIPSA content can be included in galleries. This is too bad. As a curator I should not be precluded from making galleries of whatever content I'd like.
Recently I made a gallery of images of Photo Realism painter Chuck Close's painting "Mark" that hangs in the NY Met. If someone wanted to make a similar gallery of say Photo Realist Painter Mel Ramos' work, they could not included two of my images of a painting of his that hangs in the all ages gallery at the Oakland Museum of California. The reason why? Flickr has marked these Ramos painting images of mine as "restricted." It sucks that something that can exist in a real life gallery in an all ages major metropolitan museum gallery, cannot exist in a virtual gallery on Flickr.
This problem would be easy enough to fix by simply attaching a "restricted" or "moderate" rating to any gallery that held "restricted" or "moderate" images. There is no reason why if you've opted in to view this material that you should not be able to both create and view galleries that include this material. Precluding them prevents me from making a kick ass gallery of images by one of my favorite photographers Merkley (for instance). Even though Merkley had a real life gallery showing of some of his work at 111 Minna, a physical gallery. I cannot create a comparable virtual gallery of his work because Flickr won't allow it. Flickr has a method whereby users can opt in to view material that is rated moderate or restricted.
Problem #2: User Created Galleries largely languish in obscurity. Once you go through the work of making a gallery there are no easy ways for other people to get to them. The people whose images you include in the gallery are notified of this fact on their recent activity page so they come and visit. But other than them, people largely don't visit galleries. These are the last five galleries where people have used my own images. Plug1 (0 views), mannequin (0 views), Swoon worthy B&W (23 views), Galactic (2 views), and Cocktails (8 views). These galleries will likely have more views when you look at them, but that's largely because I've posted links to them in this blog post. If someone goes through the work of curating a gallery it would be nice to see other ways on Flickr where people could access them.
The only method that Flickr has for promoting galleries right now is through a handful of galleries on the mostly stale gallery explore page which appears to be hand-curated by flickr staff, mostly, it appears, on the basis of whether or not flickr staff likes you or decided to include you as a user in the beta of the feature.
Problem #3: How can I see my friends/contacts galleries? At present there is no easy way to view the galleries of your contacts on Flickr. You are not notified when they make a gallery (unless your image is in it). There is no page like the "your contacts" photo page where you can go to see them. Without the tedious method of digging deep down into their photo page to find if (and most don't) they even have galleries you'd never know that they exist.
I believe that these three problems above could easily be corrected. The first problem is easy. Simply allow any images to be included in galleries, rather than restrict publicly or privately censored images. There is no good reason why Flickr should not do this. It might not fit into staff's vision of community shaping or moderation or whatever they call it, but prohibiting good users like Merkley from being included in this feature sucks.
In terms of the second problem, Flickr needs a central place where users can explore galleries. The page should be repopulated with new galleries as they are created every day and should rely on objective data around the interestingness ranking of galleries (rather than if Flickr staff likes your or dislikes you -- they already have the flickr blog for that).
The third problem would also be easily solved by creating a tab on an explore gallery pages that featured all of the galleries created by your contacts/friends and family. If friends of mine create galleries, I want to see them.
Galleries on Flickr has enormous potential. Curation is an incredibly significant discipline that all artists ought to consider pursuing. But as it stands right now, the new service from Flickr feels half-baked. I'm still going to make a gallery a day on Flickr for a while and continue promoting my galleries elsewhere than Flickr on the web, but Flickr needs to consider that as it stands now the new feature lacks serious teeth, which is too bad because the feature does in fact have so much potential.
Here are the galleries that I've created so far on Flickr:

"צייד הנאצים"טוביה פרידמן
פרידה מצייד הנאצים טוביה פרידמן, שהביא ללכידת אייכמן
בסוף השבוע שעבר נקבר צייד הנאצים טוביה פרידמן. האיש שהקים את המכון לדוקומנטציה בחיפה, הביא לתפיסתם של אלפי נאצים, הגיע הכי קרוב לד"ר מנגלה והעלה את עצמות חוזה המדינה. גולת הכותרת במפעל חייו: אדולף אייכמן. זמן חיפה מביא את סיפורו של גיבור, שעשה הכל לבדו

תגיות: טוביה פרידמן, צייד נאצים, בדיחה ידועה שהתרוצצה לפני מספר שנים על נשיא המדינה, שמעון פרס, סיפרה, שכאשר נתקע פעם אחת באחד מסיוריו בחו"ל ללא מכנסיים מתאימות, הובהלו לו 2 זוגות מכנסיים מהארץ. כשבא ללבוש אחד מהן – לא הצליח להיכנס לתוכו.

מבולבל ניסה להיכנס פרס לזוג השני, אך גם כאן לא עלה בידו להיכנס אל המכנסיים. צלצלו בבהילות אנשי לשכתו לארץ, ונזפו בחייט הישראלי שהביא לפרס את המכנסיים הלא מתאימות. "זאת לא אשמתי", טען החייט, "בחו"ל שמעון פרס תמיד יותר גדול".
בשישי שעבר הובא למנוחת עולם בבית הקברות בכפר סמיר טוביה פרידמן, כשהוא בן 89 במותו. עשרות ליוו את צייד הנאצים, ואפילו ראש עיריית חיפה, יונה יהב, ספד לו וסיפר בהתרגשות איך ביקש בגיל 12 ממערכת העיתון "מעריב לנוער" לשהות במשך יום במחיצתו של פרידמן, ומאז נקשר אליו וליווה אותו.
למרבה הצער השם טוביה פרידמן לא יצלצל מוכר לרוב הקוראים, ובוודאי הצעירים שבהם. לעומת זאת, לפני כחמש שנים, כאשר נפטר צייד הנאצים שמעון ויזנטל, קיבלה לוויתו אזכורים בכל העיתונים ואתרי האינטרנט המרכזיים.
קשה להסביר כיצד זכה זה לתהילת עולם, והשני, אשר זכה לכבוד אצל כל שועי עולם, דווקא במולדתו נותר אלמוני יחסית, ואולי דווקא, כפי שהיטיב לומר זאת בעצמו פרידמן: "אם הייתי נשאר בוינה - גם אני הייתי הופך למפורסם כמו ויזנטל".
הצייד הראשון
קצרה היריעה מלספר את קורותיו של ניצול השואה, שפעל להבאת עצמות חוזה המדינה, בנימין זאב הרצל, ועצמות משפחתו, ארצה. שהיה זה שלמעשה מצא את אדולף אייכמן, והסגיר אותו לידי המוסד.

שהיה האיש הקרוב ביותר למציאתו של ד"ר יוזף מנגלה, שעזר לארגון ה"הגנה" לאגור נשק לקראת סיום המנדט הבריטי, שפעל על מנת לבטל את חוק ההתיישנות על פשעי הנאצים, שאיתר למעלה מאלפיים מהם, כולל מפקד האס אס של גטו ראדום וסגנו, והביא להסגרתם של חלק ולתלייתם של אחרים, ועוד.
הכל בעזרת שתי ידיו ושתי רגליו, מבלי עזרה מהמדינה, מבלי תמיכה מ"יד ושם", בראש סניפה החיפאי עמד 3 שנים, מבלי לעשות לעצמו מפעל שלם של יחסי ציבור. מפעל של אדם אחד, שראוי שיישמע סיפורו.
את רוב שנותיו בארץ בילה טוביה פרידמן בדירתו בחיפה, אך את שנותיו האחרונות בילה פרידמן בחולון, בבית אחותו בלה קנגון, לאחר אירוע מוחי שעבר. השבעה עצמה נערכת בביתה של בלה, והדירה מלאה בתמונות ובתצלומים, שתלה אמיר, בנה, שנחשב עוד מילדות לממשיך דרכו של פרידמן.
בין תמונות של טוביה, או של בעלה של בלה, בוריס קנגון, שנפטר לפני 3 שנים, אחת התמונות הבולטות בסלון היא של רוני, בנו של פרידמן שנספה בתאונת צלילה ב-78'. אנה, אשתו של פרידמן, מספר אמיר, לא הצליחה לעמוד בכאב, ונפטר לאחר שנים ספורות.
ביום שישי נקבר פרידמן לצד שניהם, בבית הקברות בכפר סמיר. "רוני היה במבדקים לשייטת, צוללן מוכשר. בערב לפני שקרה האסון, ערב ליל הסדר, הם היו אצלנו בבית, הוא, אמא שלו, הדוד טוביה וכל החברים מהשייטת. לאחר שנגמרה הארוחה ואנשים עמדו לצאת, סגרתי בטעות את הדלת על האצבעות של היד שלו. מכיוון שאמו הייתה רופאה בבית החולים בחיפה חבשו לו את היד, ובבוקר הם נסעו לשארם.
היו 41 מעלות בחוץ, אבל הם צללו. בסירה עימם הייתה בחורה אמריקאית, שביקשה מרוני, כחלק מאתגר, להביא לה חול מעומק של 12 מטרים. רוני צלל, וחזר עם מבוקשה. בהמשך ביקשה ממנו לצלול לעומק עמוק יותר, גם במשימה זו עמד בהצלחה. לבסוף, שכשכבר היה מותש מהחום והצלילות ביקשה בשלישית. למרות עייפותו צלל שוב, אך מהצלילה הזאת לא שב".
תמונה נוספת שמראה לי אמיר היא של פרידמן ושלו, בגיל שנתיים, בוינה. הדוד מחזיק לאחיין את היד. וכך הם הלכו, יד ביד, שישים שנה, כשקנגון הופך לסגנו של דודו, עוזר היכן שצריך, שותף לאירועים, שבדיעבד הפכו היסטוריים, מתעד באדיקות, כמו הדוד, כדי שדבר לא יישכח.
הנאצים הראשונים
לפני כעשור התראיין פרידמן למגזין "בית משיח" של תנועת חב"ד, ובו סיפר על הקשר האמיץ שקשר עם הרבי מליובאוויטש, וגם על איך עצר, במסגרת תפקידו כקצין חקירות במשרד הביטחון הפולני, מאות נאצים, וביניהם נאצים מהגטו ממנו נמלט במהלך השואה.

"הגעתי לוינה עם קבוצת יהודים נוספת, במטרה להמשיך לארץ ישראל, אלא שבשמים ייעדו לי מטרה אחרת. באותם ימים פגשתי בוינה את היינריך ראקוץ’, מידידי בעיר ראדום, אותו היכרתי אישית ממחנה הריכוז שקולנה. הוא הפתיע אותי: 'אתה זוכר את סמל האס אס בוכמאיר, שרצח בראדום כל כך הרבה יהודים? הוא נמצא כאן בוינה, ופתח חנות'.
"כשהגענו לשם התברר לנו כי הוא כלוא במחנה שבויים אמריקאי ליד זלצבורג. המשכנו לשם, והצגנו את עצמנו בפני מפקד המחנה. הוא ידע כי נאצים רבים מסתירים את שמותיהם ותפקידם, כדי להקל בעונש שיוטל עליהם. התחפשתי לאסיר גרמני, והוכנסתי למחנה כשבוי גרמני על מנת לנסות לזהות את הצורר בוכמאיר. כעבור שעות ספורות זיהיתי אותו, והוא נקרא מייד למפקד המחנה לחקירה.
"בוכמאיר אמר שאינו זוכר אותי. 'אתה התרוצצת עם מקל כבד, והכית בנו עד זוב דם', הזכרתי לו. 'היו לך אפילו אחיות שחבשו אותנו, כדי שתוכל להכותנו שוב אחר כך'. שפתיו של בוכמאיר נעו במבוכה וזעם, 'אבל לא הייתי הגרוע ביותר בראדום'.
"מיד לאחר החקירה החל הליך הסגרתו של בוכמאיר לפולין ושם הועמד לדין. לאחר מכן איתרנו נאצי נוסף בשם ריכרד שייגל, שהעביר אלפי יהודים מגיטו ראדום אל מחנה ההשמדה בטרבלינקה. מפקד משטרת וינה טען בפנינו כי ריכרד נעצר ושוחרר מחוסר הוכחות. אולם על סמך עדותי ועדותו של היינריך, הוא נעצר עוד באותו לילה. הוא נחקר והועמד לדין. את חייו סיים בבית הסוהר בוינה. אלו הנאצים הראשונים שלכדתי".
בהמשך מצא גם את ראש האס אס ומפקד המשטרה בראדום, הרברט בטכר, וסגנו וילהלם בלום, שהיו אחראים לשליחתם של כ-300,000 יהודים למחנה הריכוז בטרבלינקה, בהם משפחתו של פרידמן.
פרידמן נולד בראדום, פולין ב-1922. ב-1941 הועבר ביחד עם משפחתו לגטו ראדום, ושנה לאחר מכן נשלחו אחותו ואמו לטרבלינקה. הוא נשלח למחנה עבודה, ומשם נדד ממקום למקום, עד שהגיע למחנה ברחוב שקולנה.
ביוני 44' הצליח לברוח ביחד עם שני חברים נוספים מהגטו דרך תעלת ביוב, ושרד בשטח. הוא ניצל פעמים רבות ממוות, כשבאחת מהן, לילה לפני הוצאתו להורג, חיסל את החייל שהופקד עליו, וברח.
ב-45' הצטרף למשטרה הפולנית בזהות בדויה, וזאת למען המטרה אליה שאף – רדיפת הנאצים ונקמת דם משפחתו. הוא הפך לקצין חקירות, ובמסגרת תפקידו עצר מאות נאצים, והביאם לדין. שנה לאחר מכן, כשפגש את אחותו בלה, ששרדה אף היא, תכנן לעלות ארצה דרך ארגון "הבריחה", שם הכיר את אשר (ארתור) בן נתן, שלימים כיהן כשגריר הישראלי הראשון בגרמניה המערבית, וכיום מכהן כראש יד בן גוריון.
בן נתן גייס את פרידמן למשימת איסוף המידע אודות פושעי מלחמה נאצים, כאשר הראשון במעלה היה ראש החטיבה היהודית באס אס, אדולף אייכמן.
בראשית שנות ה-50 הפסיקה ארצות הברית את המאמצים באיתור פושעי מלחמה. פרידמן החליט לעלות לארץ, כשהאמין שבמדינת ישראל יוכל לעשות את משימתו ביתר שאת, אך בדיעבד את מרבית הפושעים שתפס - תפס דווקא בוינה.
האיש שמצא את אייכמן
גולת הכותרת במסע הצייד שניהל פרידמן כנגד הנאצים, הייתה ללא ספק 15 השנים בהם בילה במרדף אחר אדולף אייכמן.

סיפור מציאתו של אייכמן החל בסוף אוגוסט 1959, כאשר מנהל המרכז הפדרלי לחקירת פשעי הנאצים, ארווין שילה, הודיע לפרידמן, שעבד איתו צמוד, כי ככל הנראה אותרו עקבותיו של אייכמן בכווית. פרידמן ניסה להציף את העניין לתודעה הארצית, ופנה לעיתונאי משה מייזלס שיפרסם את הסיפור.
הידיעה על הימצאו של אייכמן עשתה גלים, ומשרד החוץ ביקש מפרידמן לחדול ממעשיו. פרידמן נטש את הזירה המקומית, ופרסם מודעות בעיתונים בחו"ל, בה הציע פרס של 10 אלף דולרים למוסרי מידע אמין על מיקומו של אייכמן.
באוקטובר 59' התקבל אצל פרידמן מכתב מלותר הרמן, ניצול שואה שבחר לארגנטינה, וטען כי אייכמן נראה בבואנוס איירס בארגנטינה. פרידמן העביר את המידע למוסד, וב-23 במאי הודיע בן גוריון מעל בימת הכנסת כי אייכמן נמצא בישראל.
ב-24.5.60, יום לאחר ההודעה, פרסם רפאל בשן, כתב מעריב, טור. "היה זה יומו הגדול של איש ממוצע קומה, בעל עיניים נוגות והליכות הססניות, הנושא תדיר תיק עור ישן ומסמורטט תחת בית שחיו – יומו הגדול של טוביה פרידמן", כתב. "לא, הוא לא לכד במו ידיו את רב הטבחים – את המלאכה הטובה והנקייה עשו הבחורים, אבל טוביה פרידמן יצר את האווירה לכך.
"העלה את זכרו של רב הטבחים הערמומי הזה לסדר יומנו, הציב אותו על ראש כל שמחתנו, החדיר אותו לתודעתנו. שבוע שבוע, חודש חודש הוא נדנד, והטריד, והתדפק על דלתות מוסדות וארגונים, ואישים, וחברי כנסת, ומזכירים ומזכירונים - ולא נתן לנו מנוח, ולא אפשר לנו לשכוח.
"ממשרדון קטן בעיר הכרמל, בלי פרוטה של תמיכה ציבורית, ניהל את המערכה שלו – נגד אייכמן, ונגד בירוקרטיה ואטימות מוחין של מוסדות מסורבלים, קהי רגש, קצרי רואי, שהתנכלו לדוקומנטציה שלו.
"15 שנים רצופות רדף אחרי אדולף אייכמן, אסף פרט לפרט, מסמך למסמך, תצלום לתצלום. התכתב עם כל קצוות תבל, שלח לתובע הכללי הגרמני 400 עמודים גדושי חומר על אייכמן. אתמול הגיע פרידמן לסוף הדרך".
3 ימים לאחר מכן ראיין בשן את פרידמן: "אני עייף", אמר לו פרידמן, "עייף מ-15 שנות אייכמן. זה היום הגדול בחיי".
"בלי הדוד שלי - לא היו מגלים את אייכמן לעולם", מחזיר אותי האחיין אמיר למאה ה-21. "באחד העיתונים כתבו, שאייכמן היה בסך הכל נמושה. מה תפסו? אדם זקן. אבל שכחו את הדבר הכי חשוב - שהקונץ היה להגיע אליו, לחפש אותו בין כל המדינות שעזרו לו, להביא אותו לידי המוסד, ואת זה הדוד שלי עשה, הוא".
אגב, בזמן המשפט היה פרידמן אחד האנשים היחידים שהורשו להיכנס אל תאו של אייכמן, ועד היום נמצאים דפים, כתובים בעט אדומה, עליהם כתב אייכמן את פרטי הפיתרון הסופי. "כל יום במהלך המשפט הדוד שלי היה שם. הרי אייכמן כתב לו מכלא רמלה 2 דפים עם עט אדומה, על כל הפיתרון הסופי. הדוד שלי נתן את זה אחר כך לספריה הלאומית בירושלים, אבל צריך לזכור שאייכמן כתב את זה באופן אישי לדוד שלי".
האויב מבית
שנה לאחר תפיסתו של אייכמן, ב-1961, הוציא פרידמן את ספרו "הצייד", שתורגם ל-5 שפות ויצא במספר מהדורות. אמיר מספר שאפילו במהלך הוצאת הספר נתקל דודו בקשיים, הפעם מבית.

"ב-1961, כשהוא בא לכתוב את הספר שלו, ובו סיפר שהוא עשה הכל, אז ראש המוסד דאז, איסר הראל, רצה למנוע ממנו את זה, אולי כי זה היה פוגע בספרו 'הבית ברחוב גריבלדי', שם היו פרטים מעט שונים מהפרטים שנתן דוד שלי. הוא לא הצליח מסיבה אחת, מכיוון שדוד שלי היה ביחסים טובים עם ז'קלין קנדי, שהייתה המו"ל של הספרייה הגדולה בעולם, והוציאה את הספר במספר שפות. מול גב שכזה אי אפשר להתווכח", נזכר קנגון.
סיפור נוסף שמתאר קנגון, מגלה סערה שהתחוללה סביב פרס ק.צטניק: "השכן שלי בתל אביב היה יחיאל דינור (ק.צטניק), וכשהוא כתב את סלמנדרה הוא הקדיש אותו לבן שלי, רוני, שבכיו, כך טען, השאיר אותו שפוי בלילות בהם כתב.
"פילו הילדים שלו לא ידעו, שהספרים שהם קוראים ולומדים נכתבו בידי אבא שלהם. יום אחד הוא סיפר לי על קרן ק.צטניק, ועל פרס של מיליון דולרים שמוענק דרכה. 'אני רוצה שהפרס יינתן לדוד שלך', אמר לי, 'מכיוון שהוא פועל מהארץ, וכל השאר לא. בסוף קיבל את הפרס אלי ויזל. אנחנו שתקנו, אבל דינור החליט שהוא מפסיק לתת את הפרס בעקבות המקרה".
אך סיפור זה הוא רק טיפה בים, לטענת קנגון, ודודו נאלץ להילחם בבירוקרטיה הישראלית לא פעם. אם מול אנשים מסוימים במוסד (למרות שעם השר לשעבר, רפי איתן, נשאר בקשרים מצוינים עד מותו) או אפילו "יד ושם", אשר בראש סניפו החיפאי עמד שלוש שנים עד אשר הסתכסך עם ראשיו ב-1956, בעקבות 2 מסיבות עיתונאים מפורסמות, בהן הציג מסמכים רבים שאסף בוינה אודות נאצים.
המדינה לא ביקשה את הסגרתם, ו"יד ושם", שטענה כי מטרתה תיעוד הנספים ולא רדיפת נאצים, אילצה את פרידמן לעזוב כעבור שנה את שורותיה. אז החליט פרידמן לייסד את "המכון לדוקומנטציה בישראל לחקר פעולות הפושעים הנאציים", שמטרתו הייתה חיבור ספרים בנושאי השואה, תביעת מדינות אשר ברשותן רכוש שנגזל מיהודים בשואה ועריכת תערוכות והרצאות בנושא השואה בארץ ובחו"ל. אחת התערוכות הציגה במרכז האקדמי כרמל עשרות צילומים המתעדים את תקופת השואה, אותם מסר פרידמן.
בצילומים נראים יהודי אירופה בגטאות, במחנות ההשמדה, וחלקם צולמו על ידי הנאצים דקות לפני ביצוע הוצאות להורג המוניות. כל הצילומים נתונים במסגרות ששוחזרו ושופצו, לקראת הצגתם בתערוכה. "הצגת התערוכה היא מחווה לטוביה פרידמן, שמפעל חייו היה להביא לדין פושעי מלחמה נאצים", מסר אז נשיא המרכז האקדמי, פרופסור יחזקאל טלר, "אבל חשיבותה בצורך שלנו לא רק לזכור, אלא גם להזכיר לדורות הבאים את אימת הימים ההם".
גם את המכון הזה הקים פרידמן מאפס, ועבד בו בהתנדבות עד אפריל 1958, כאשר הקונגרס הציוני העולמי החליט לאשר מימון חודשי של 200 לירות לפעילות המכון. נכון לשנת 2005 הוציא המכון לדוקומנטציה, יותר מ-150 פרסומים וכ-20 ספרים בנושא השואה.
הכי קרוב למנגלה
פעילות נוספת שהייתה לחם חוקו של פרידמן, היא פעולותיו לביטול ההתיישנות בחוק הגרמני על פשעי הנאצים. פרידמן לחם בנושא רבות, ולאחר כעשרים שנות מאבק הוחלט בבונדסטאג לבטל את ההתיישנות על פשעי רצח ורצח עם.
יוזף מנגלה צילום: אי-פי
אחד המקרים בהם לא ויתר פרידמן, היה איתורו של ד"ר יוזף מנגלה, אליו לקח גם את אחיינו אמיר: "הייתי עם הדוד שלי 3 פעמים בבית של יוזף מנגלה לפני 20 שנה", הוא מספר. "ישבנו מול הבן שלו בעיירה גינזבורג, מאה ק"מ מהגבול השוויצרי בדרך למינכן.
"הבית נקרא 'בית חרושת לקוגלגרים', אבל היה לנו מידע מבוסס ששם גרה משפחתו. נסענו עם הרכב, הגענו לשם ודוד שלי התחזה לאחד הלקוחות, כדי לראות איפה מנגלה חי. נפגשנו עם הבן, האמא ודיברנו בעיקר על קוגלגרים. הוא לא חשד בכלום.
אחרי כמה ימים של ביקורים, על מנת שפחדנו שלא ניפול בפח, הגענו שוב לאותו בית חרושת וקבענו שדוד שלי יהיה בפנים ואני בחוץ. אם יקרה משהו - שיודיע ואגיע. בפעם השלישית דוד שלי הצליח להבין מהבן איפה מנגלה נמצא. באותו הרגע גם הבן הבין שהוא נפל למלכוד. הוא ניסה לתפוס את הדוד שלי, וסגר עליו את דלת הברזל של הכניסה לבית.
"דוד שלי אותת לי, ואני עם המכונית פרצתי פנימה והוצאתי אותו. לצערי אז לא היו פלאפונים, וכשיצאנו משם הרמנו מייד טלפון לנציג של המוסד באותו אזור, ואמרנו לו שמנגלה נמצא במלון אנגלברג בציריך. אנשי המוסד רצו מהר לאזור, אבל בשעתיים הם פספסו אותו, מכיוון שהבן הספיק להזהיר אותו".
מנגלה לא נתפס מעולם, עד שבשנת 79' התגלתה גופת גבר שטבע מול חופי ברזיל. בדיקות DNA שנערכו לגופה לאחר מספר שנים גילו, כי מדובר באותו דוקטור רצחני, שמת משבץ בזמן ששחה בים.
כמו במקרה של ד"ר מנגלה, גם בשאר המקרים התלווית אל הדוד שלך? הרי כולם טוענים שאתה ממשיך הדרך שלו.
"תסתכל על התמונה (מצביע לי על אותה תמונה מוינה). ככה אנחנו כבר מגיל קטן. מגיל שנתיים הוא מחזיק לי את היד, ועכשיו אני החזקתי לו את היד. הרי כשהבן הבכור שלי נולד, קראתי לו רוני על שמו".
סיפור נוסף, שמראה את מידת התמדתו ועקשנותו של פרידמן, ניתן למצוא בסיפור בו הצליחו פרידמן וקנגון לאסוף מסמכים רבים מספריה בברלין. "יום אחד אומר לי הדוד שלי 'בוא ניסע לברלין. יש חוק מסוים לגבי הספריות, שטוען שאם עד שנה מסוימת האמריקאים לא רוצים לקחת את החומר איתם - זה נשאר אצל הגרמנים'.
"היה קולונל אמריקאי שקיבל 10 אלף דולרים, פלוס בונוסים לאשתו, כדי שיפנה את המקום. הגענו לשם בסוף שבוע, הבאנו צוות צילום, ולקחנו את כל המיקרו פילמים והמסמכים של הגסטאפו הגרמני שהיה שם. את הצילומים השארנו שם, כדי שלא יחשדו בכלום. הגענו לשגרירות בבון, ארתור היה השגריר, ומשם העברנו הכל למכון לדוקומנטציה בחיפה".
ואת כל המבצע הזה עשיתם רק שניכם?
"צריך לזכור שאת כל המבצעים הוא עשה לבד, ומפעם לפעם הוא ביקש שאני אעזור לו. הוא לבד, בלי שליחים. מפעל של בן אדם אחד, ואני רק עזרה קטנטנה לעתים".
את אייכמן דודך עזר ללכוד, מה בנוגע לאיוון דמיאניוק?
"לא היה לו בזה עניין, בעיניו דמיאניוק לא היה סחורה בכלל. הרי כמו דמיאניוק וגרועים ממנו היו עוד בעשרות אלפים".
נחזור רגע לבדיחה על שמעון פרס. פרידמן אמנם לא היה מוכר לציבור בארץ, אך בחיפה, בה בילה את רוב שנותיו, ידעו לתת לו את הכבוד הראוי לו, וב-2002 הוענק לו תואר יקיר העיר.
טוביה פרידמן צילום: באדיבות המשפחה
בכלל, נושא חיפה היה קרוב לליבו של פרידמן, ולכן, למרות בקשות מערים שונות בעולם, בחר את מקום מושבו, וגם את מכון הדוקומנטציה, בחיפה.
כעת אומר אחיינו, כי הוא הולך לשפץ את המקום ברחוב בן יהודה 31 בעיר, שהוזנח מעט בשנים האחרונות, ולהחזיר אותו לגדולתו. "דוד שלי תמיד אמר לי, כשהיינו טסים ברחבי העולם, שהחלום שלו הוא לקחת שתי פצצות אטום ולהפיל אותן על גרמניה. המסע שלו אף פעם לא נגמר".
לקראת סיום הראיון מקבל אמיר, לא איש קטן בכלל, שיחה, על הקו לשכת הנשיא, שמעון פרס, שהיה בקשרים טובים עם פרידמן עוד בחייו. אמיר לא מצליח להחזיק את עצמו, למשמע המחמאות מעבר לקו ודומע. כשאני שואל אותו מה הדבר הכי חשוב, שהוא רוצה שיזכרו מדודו - הוא משתנק בשנית, ונדמה בעיניי שוב כאותו ילד בן שנתיים, המחזיק ביד של דודו.
"אסכם זאת בשלושה משפטים: דוד מיוחד, דוד אחד ולעד אני אזכור אותך. זה מסכם את הכל מבחינתי. אין אחד כזה בכל כדור הארץ, שעשה מה שעשה הדוד שלי".

9/11, The Oklahoma City bombing, Virginia Tech, the Watts Riots, the assassinations of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., Presidents Abraham Lincoln and John F Kennedy, all horrific acts of violence, all catastrophic, all senseless.
Imagine a world without violence, a world of peace. This sentiment echoes the lyrics to John Lennon’s 1971 song, “Imagine”.
The concept of the tour was conceived after the piano was showcased at the IMAGINE exhibition at Goss Gallery in Dallas, Texas, 2006
The photographs will feature in a book which will spread a worldwide message of peace, transcending time, cultures and boundaries.
The piano has been photographed at:
Dealy Plaza in Dallas, Texas where President John F Kennedy was assassinated on November 22nd,1963
Memphis, Tennessee. at the National Civil Rights Museum (previously the Lorraine Motel) where Martin Luther King Jr. was assassinated on April 4th, 1968
The Ford Theatre in Washington D.C., the site of President Lincoln’s assassination 142 years ago.
The Walls at Texas State Penitentiary in Huntsville, Texas, on the day of a prisoner’s execution.
The Oklahoma City National Memorial on the 12th anniversary of the bombing tragedy.
The site of the former Branch Davidian Compound where over 80 people died 13 years ago.
The home of Bill Clayton who committed suicide 12 years ago after being beaten by a gay hate gang.
www.youtube.com/watch?v=2pjKXc_gmx4
In Texarkana at the site where the Phantom Murderer killed his 1st two victims in 1946
Outside the Courthouse in Marion, West Memphis where the West Memphis Three were convicted.
Blacksburg, Virginia. The location of the Virginia Tech tragedy.
Future planned photographs to be taken in the US and UK, include the site of the World Trade Center attacks and London bombings.
“Kenny and George’s deepest wish is to imagine a world of peace, a world without violence,” said Caroline True, creative director. "The selection of these sites evokes a deep sense of emotion for everyone. Capturing these images of this special piano on which a song of peace was composed is the heart of this project."
Background
George Michael bought the Lennon piano at an auction in October 2000. Considered the most expensive piece of pop memorabilia, experts have estimated its value at US$8 million to $12 million. Michael and his partner, Kenny Goss, owner of Goss Gallery in Dallas, want to further strengthen the project’s peaceful message, by having “Imagine” performed on the piano at each stop. A video documentary and a published volume of the images are under development, with plans to donate proceeds to charity.
The song, “Imagine,” was first released in 1971 and was already John Lennon’s most famous post-Beatles song, but it took on a whole new life of its own following Lennon’s murder in December 1980. When first released, “Imagine” reached No. 3 in America and No. 6 in Britain but after Lennon’s death in December 1980, the song gave him a posthumous No. 1.
Lennon bought the piano in December 1970, had it delivered to studios at his home in Tittenhurst Park in Berkshire, composed and recorded “Imagine” on it. The piano is a simple upright style instrument, not the white piano which graced the cover of the album. In 1992, it was bought by a private British collector who put it up for auction in October 2000.

Documenta From Wikipedia,
The Fridericianum during documenta (13)
documenta is an exhibition of contemporary art which takes place every five years in Kassel, Germany. It was founded by artist, teacher and curator Arnold Bode in 1955 as part of the Bundesgartenschau (Federal Horticultural Show) which took place in Kassel at that time.[1] It was an attempt to bring Germany up to speed with modern art, both banishing and repressing the cultural darkness of Nazism.[2] This first documenta featured many artists who are generally considered to have had a significant influence on modern art (such as Picasso and Kandinsky). The more recent documentas feature art from all continents; nonetheless most of it is site-specific.
Every documenta is limited to 100 days of exhibition, which is why it is often referred to as the "museum of 100 days".[3] Documenta is not a selling exhibition. It rarely coincides with the three other major art world events: the Venice Biennale, Art Basel and Skulptur Projekte Münster, but in 2017, all four were open simultaneously.
Etymology of documenta
The name of the exhibition is an invented word. The term is supposed to demonstrate the intention of every exhibition (in particular of the first documenta in 1955) to be a documentation of modern art which was not available for the German public during the Nazi era. Rumour spread from those close to Arnold Bode that it was relevant for the coinage of the term that the Latin word documentum could be separated into docere (Latin for teach) and mens (Latin for intellect) and therefore thought it to be a good word to describe the intention and the demand of the documenta.[4]
Each edition of documenta has commissioned its own visual identity, most of which have conformed to the typographic style of solely using lowercase letters, which originated at the Bauhaus.[5]
History
Stadtverwaldung by Joseph Beuys, oaktree in front of the museum Fridericianum, documenta 7
Art professor and designer Arnold Bode from Kassel was the initiator of the first documenta. Originally planned as a secondary event to accompany the Bundesgartenschau, this attracted more than 130,000 visitors in 1955. The exhibition centred less on "contemporary art“, that is art made after 1945: instead, Bode wanted to show the public works which had been known as "Entartete Kunst" in Germany during the Nazi era: Fauvism, Expressionism, Cubism, Blauer Reiter, Futurism and Pittura Metafisica. Therefore, abstract art, in particular the abstract paintings of the 1920s and 1930s, was the focus of interest in this exhibition.
Over time, the focus shifted to contemporary art. At first, the show was limited to works from Europe, but soon covered works by artists from the Americas, Africa and Asia. 4. documenta, the first ever to turn a profit, featured a selection of Pop Art, Minimal Art, and Kinetic Art.[6] Adopting the theme of Questioning Reality – Pictorial Worlds Today, the 1972 documenta radically redefined what could be considered art by featuring minimal and conceptual art, marking a turning point in the public acceptance of those styles.[7] Also, it devoted a large section to the work of Adolf Wolfli, the great Swiss outsider, then unknown. Joseph Beuys performed repeatedly under the auspices of his utopian Organization for Direct Democracy.[8] Additionally, the 1987 documenta show signaled another important shift with the elevation of design to the realm of art – showing an openness to postmodern design.[9] Certain key political dates for wide-reaching social and cultural upheavals, such as 1945, 1968 or 1976/77, became chronological markers of documenta X (1997), along which art's political, social, cultural and aesthetic exploratory functions were traced.[10] Documenta11 was organized around themes like migration, urbanization and the post-colonial experience,[11] with documentary photography, film and video as well as works from far-flung locales holding the spotlight.[7] In 2012, documenta (13) was described as "[a]rdently feminist, global and multimedia in approach and including works by dead artists and selected bits of ancient art".[12]
Criticism
documenta typically gives its artists at least two years to conceive and produce their projects, so the works are often elaborate and intellectually complex.[13] However, the participants are often not publicised before the very opening of the exhibition. At documenta (13), the official list of artists was not released until the day the show opened.[14] Even though curators have often claimed to have gone outside the art market in their selection, participants have always included established artists. In the documenta (13), for example, art critic Jerry Saltz identified more than a third of the artists represented by the renowned Marian Goodman Gallery in the show.[14]
Directors
The first four documentas, organized by Arnold Bode, established the exhibition's international credentials. Since the fifth documenta (1972), a new artistic director has been named for each documenta exhibition by a committee of experts. Documenta 8 was put together in two years instead of the usual five. The original directors, Edy de Wilde and Harald Szeemann, were unable to get along and stepped down. They were replaced by Manfred Schneckenburger, Edward F. Fry, Wulf Herzogenrath, Armin Zweite, and Vittorio Fagone.[15] Coosje van Bruggen helped select artists for documenta 7, the 1982 edition. documenta IX's team of curators consisted of Jan Hoet, Piero Luigi Tazzi, Denys Zacharopoulos, and Bart de Baere.[16] For documenta X Catherine David was chosen as the first woman and the first non-German speaker to hold the post. It is also the first and unique time that its website Documenta x was conceived by a curator (swiss curator Simon Lamunière) as a part of the exhibition. The first non-European director was Okwui Enwezor for Documenta11.[17]

2012's edition was organized around a central node, the trans-Atlantic melding of two distinct individuals who first encountered each other in the "money-soaked deserts of the United Arab Emirates". As an organizing principle it is simultaneously a commentary on the romantic potentials of globalization and also a critique of how digital platforms can complicate or interrogate the nature of such relationships. Curatorial agents refer to the concept as possessing a "fricative potential for productive awkwardness," wherein a twosome is formed for the purposes of future exploration.[23]
Venues
documenta is held in different venues in Kassel. Since 1955, the fixed venue has been the Fridericianum. The documenta-Halle was built in 1992 for documenta IX and now houses some of the exhibitions. Other venues used for documenta have included the Karlsaue park, Schloss Wilhelmshöhe, the Neue Galerie, the Ottoneum, and the Kulturzentrum Schlachthof. Though Okwui Enezor notably tried to subvert the euro-centric approach documenta had taken, he instigated a series of five platforms before the Documenta11 in Vienna, Berlin, New Delhi, St Lucia, and Lagos, in an attempt to take documenta into a new post-colonial, borderless space, from which experimental cultures could emerge. documenta 12 occupied five locations, including the Fridericianum, the Wilhelmshöhe castle park and the specially constructed "Aue-Pavillon", or meadow pavilion, designed by French firm Lacaton et Vassal.[24] At documenta (13) (2012), about a fifth of the works were unveiled in places like Kabul, Afghanistan, and Banff, Canada.[13]
There are also a number of works that are usually presented outside, most notably in Friedrichsplatz, in front of the Fridericianum, and the Karlsaue park. To handle the number of artworks at documenta IX, five connected temporary "trailers" in glass and corrugated metal were built in the Karlsaue.[25] For documenta (13), French architects Anne Lacaton and Jean-Philippe Vassal constructed the temporary "Aue-Pavillon" in the park.
Rahmenbau (1977) by Haus Rucker und Co.
A few of the works exhibited at various documentas remained as purchases in Kassel museums. They include 7000 Eichen by Joseph Beuys; Rahmenbau (1977) by Haus-Rucker-Co; Laserscape Kassel (1977) by Horst H. Baumann; Traumschiff Tante Olga (1977) by Anatol Herzfeld; Vertikaler Erdkilometer by Walter De Maria; Spitzhacke (1982) by Claes Oldenburg; Man walking to the sky (1992) by Jonathan Borofsky; and Fremde by Thomas Schütte (one part of the sculptures are installed on Rotes Palais at Friedrichsplatz, the other on the roof of the Concert Hall in Lübeck).
documenta archive
The extensive volume of material that is regularly generated on the occasion of this exhibition prompted Arnold Bode to create an archive in 1961. The heart of the archive’s collection comes from the files and materials of the documenta organization. A continually expanding video and image archive is also part of the collection as are the independently organized bequests of Arnold Bode and artist Harry Kramer.
Management
Visitors
In 1992, on the occasion of documenta IX, for the first time in the history of the documenta, more than half a million people traveled to Kassel.[26] The 2002 edition of documenta attracted 650,000 visitors, more than triple Kassel's population.[27] In 2007, documenta 12 drew 754,000 paying visitors, with more than one-third of the visitors coming from abroad and guests from neighboring Netherlands, France, Belgium and Austria among the most numerous.[28] In 2012, documenta (13) had 904,992 visitors.[21]

lumbung
Short concept by ruangrupa for documenta 15
"We want to create a globally oriented, cooperative, interdisciplinary art and culture platform that will remain effective beyond the 100 days of documenta fifteen. Our curatorial approach aims at a different kind of collaborative model of resource use—economically, but also in terms of ideas, knowledge, programs, and innovation."
ruangrupa’s central curatorial approach for documenta fifteen is based on the principles of collectivity, resource building, and equal sharing. They aim to appeal not just to an art audience but to a variety of communities, and to promote local commitment and participation. Their approach is based on an international network of local, community-based organizations from the art and other cultural contexts and can be outlined by the Indonesian term lumbung. lumbung, directly translatable as “rice barn,” is a collective pot or accumulation system used in rural areas of Indonesia, where crops produced by a community are stored as a future shared common resource and distributed according to jointly determind criteria. Using lumbung as a model, documenta fifteen is a collective resource pot, operating under the logics of the commons. It is an agglomeration of ideas, stories, (wo)manpower, time, and other shareable resources. At the center of lumbung is the imagination and the building of these collective, shared resources into new models of sustainable ideas and cultural practices. This will be fostered by residencies, assemblies, public activities, and the development of tools.
Interdisciplinarity is key in this process. It is where art meets activism, management, and networking to gather support, understand environments, and identify local resources. These elements then create actions and spaces, intertwine social relations and transactions; they slowly grow and organically find a public form. This is a strategy “to live in and with society.” It imagines the relations an art institution has with its community by being an active constituent of it. Strategies are then developed based on proximity and shared desires.
The main principles of the process are:
• Providing space to gather and explore ideas
• Collective decision making
• Non-centralization
• Playing between formalities and informalities
• Practicing assembly and meeting points
• Architectural awareness
• Being spatially active to promote conversation
• A melting pot for and from everyone’s thoughts, energies, and ideas

Wreck of ML133 at Camasnagaul.
NN 09440 75247
This Motor Launch blew up on the morning of 11th May 1943 killing CPO Frank Hopkins who is buried in Glen Nevis
www.mbriscoe.me.uk/page11.html
The ML133 Disaster
Built by Lady Bee Ltd. Of Shoreham, Sussex, ML 133 was 75ft in length (cf. above) and was launched on November 18th 1940, commissioned on December 4 1940 and completed eight days later. The following account was written by Mr Christopher Wardle who was on board at the time:
The Death of the 133. (A very vivid Memory}
As it happened.....No bullshit...The real and true facts.
I was a crew member for the entire life of the boat, I joined it in England, sailed it to Scotland and we were the original ML Training Flotilla, the Flotilla consisted of several B class ML’s
The crew of all the B class ML’s at that time was 11 personnel. The 133 was the flotilla leader and carried a fully fledged CPO as coxswain, a Leading Telegrapher, a two-and-a-half ring (Lt Cdr) skipper, who incidentally at the time of the incident was in Inverness at a conference on fire-fighting.... would you believe. So the crew of all the flotilla of ML’s at the time consisted of The Captain, the 1st Lt...usually a very very young kid with one ring (Sub. Lt). Almost every Officer was ‘Wavy Navy’ (RNVR), the only regular navy on board was myself and the coxswain all the rest were Hos (Hostility Only).
We also had two ‘Mickey Mouses’ (Motor Mechanics), usually ex-garage mechanics and extremely competent guys, a telegraphist, who, since there was little on-air radio work served as the Officers flunky and above deck signalman, a Coxswain and 5 seamen, either ordinary or able seaman a total of 11.
It was a clear cold morning in May. The 133 was doing what was called guard duties. What we were guarding, I have no idea. But we asked no questions. We just did what we was told to do.
So the morning of the 11th May 1943 we were swinging around a buoy (near Camusnagaul) with a watchman on the upper deck protecting all the good folk at Fort William. Usually the coxswain poked his head into the mess deck and ‘Called the hands’, but for some reason he didn’t so I, as next in seniority did the honours.
One of the Motor Mechanics....Geordie... I think he was the oldest guy on board, maybe in his 40s ...very old to a young 23! Anyway he went into the engine room to start up a small motor we used for washing down the upper deck; always the first duty of the day. In the meantime the rest of the crew were either dressing, in the toilet, or trying to use the bathroom....all bleary eyed, ....Still no sign of the coxswain....very unusual. He was an extremely efficient CPO... no nonsense...ran the ship extremely well.
I was just in the middle of dressing when there was this explosion. I ran up the hatch to the upper deck. The 2 sides of boat had blown outboard from the wardroom to the forecastle and Geordie was laying on the starboard side groaning with one of his eyes hanging loose. Fire had engulfed the entire engine room. When Geordie had started the small motor there had been petrol fumes in the bilges and a spark must have caused the explosion and the fire.
He was in no condition to do anything; he was shocked and injured. The first thing was to call the coxswain CPO Frank (Polly) Hopkins... we battered on his door ...but no response. His door opened inward, refused to budge, think the explosion had lifted the bilge boards and jammed his door... But why wasn’t he answering? I just don’t know, we had nothing with which to smash his door, but we tried. In the end we all took to the upper deck....there was no panic...just a bunch of guys watching the fire getting bigger and bigger’
Being built of timber the boat stayed afloat tied up to the mooring buoy, even though both her sides had been blown almost flat against the water. Christopher continues….
‘The skipper was away. The young Jimmy (1st Lieutenant) was already in the water so I was the senior guy left and I told everyone to get into the water. We had no means at all to fight the fire, we couldn’t sink her , the sea cocks and all the extinguishers were in the engine room and there was no way we could help Geordie so we abandoned ship.
I swam towards the pier a mile away; it was bloody cold too! Some of the flotilla from around the corner obviously saw the smoke and dropped anchor and came a running. I was picked up by the 154. The sparker aboard was a friend, who took great delight hurling a lifebuoy at me before helping me aboard.
The big explosion came as we were swimming towards the pier; all the ammunition and the 100 octane petrol, 4000 gallons of it, I believe. The depth charges too probably went up. That was quite a bang. I heard later quite a few windows were lost in the town and whether this was true or not, I heard it said they found parts of the 3 pounder gun near the Ben!
From that point didn’t know what was transpiring. We were all taken to the base and fitted out (with dry clothing etc.) ‘cos we were all fairly naked having only just got out of our bunks, and in a couple of days we were all sent on leave. I was sent for by Commander Welman, the CO of the base who grilled me on what happened. He seemed more concerned with pages from the confidential books that had been washed ashore as they were supposed to be kept in a locked safe. He wanted to know how they were loose and floating around. I told him the 1st Lt had them out to make the new admiralty adjustments to them and hadn’t had time to replace them, I guess.
I served the rest of my time as an instructor at the base. I heard the divers had found the coxswain at the bottom of the Hatch, he had obviously made it out of his cabin but only as far as the hatch just outside his door. I was sent on leave and didn’t even get chance to go to the coxswains funeral.

One of the boats which raced to the scene was the local ferry boat driven by local man Archie McLean. Having picked up a number of men from the water, Archie quickly realised that CPO Hopkins was still aboard. Manoeuvring his boat through the smoke and flames, Archie managed to get it alongside the stricken vessel. Despite being aware that it was full of high octane petrol, live ammunition and probably some depth charges too, he attempted to recue the missing man. As he was about to climb aboard, the second explosion occurred and the attempt had to be abandoned. Archie was awarded honorary membership of the Coastal Forces Veterans Association and was proud to attend the annual reunions of the Coastal veterans who visited the town thereafter.
Geordie, fortunately survived the accident and C.P.O. Frank Hopkins is buried in Glen Nevis. Unfortunately his wife watched the whole incident while not realising that her husband had been killed. Meanwhile, the wreck of ML 133 can still be seen on the Camasnagaul shore at low water.

Documenta From Wikipedia,
The Fridericianum during documenta (13)
documenta is an exhibition of contemporary art which takes place every five years in Kassel, Germany. It was founded by artist, teacher and curator Arnold Bode in 1955 as part of the Bundesgartenschau (Federal Horticultural Show) which took place in Kassel at that time.[1] It was an attempt to bring Germany up to speed with modern art, both banishing and repressing the cultural darkness of Nazism.[2] This first documenta featured many artists who are generally considered to have had a significant influence on modern art (such as Picasso and Kandinsky). The more recent documentas feature art from all continents; nonetheless most of it is site-specific.
Every documenta is limited to 100 days of exhibition, which is why it is often referred to as the "museum of 100 days".[3] Documenta is not a selling exhibition. It rarely coincides with the three other major art world events: the Venice Biennale, Art Basel and Skulptur Projekte Münster, but in 2017, all four were open simultaneously.
Etymology of documenta
The name of the exhibition is an invented word. The term is supposed to demonstrate the intention of every exhibition (in particular of the first documenta in 1955) to be a documentation of modern art which was not available for the German public during the Nazi era. Rumour spread from those close to Arnold Bode that it was relevant for the coinage of the term that the Latin word documentum could be separated into docere (Latin for teach) and mens (Latin for intellect) and therefore thought it to be a good word to describe the intention and the demand of the documenta.[4]
Each edition of documenta has commissioned its own visual identity, most of which have conformed to the typographic style of solely using lowercase letters, which originated at the Bauhaus.[5]
History
Stadtverwaldung by Joseph Beuys, oaktree in front of the museum Fridericianum, documenta 7
Art professor and designer Arnold Bode from Kassel was the initiator of the first documenta. Originally planned as a secondary event to accompany the Bundesgartenschau, this attracted more than 130,000 visitors in 1955. The exhibition centred less on "contemporary art“, that is art made after 1945: instead, Bode wanted to show the public works which had been known as "Entartete Kunst" in Germany during the Nazi era: Fauvism, Expressionism, Cubism, Blauer Reiter, Futurism and Pittura Metafisica. Therefore, abstract art, in particular the abstract paintings of the 1920s and 1930s, was the focus of interest in this exhibition.
Over time, the focus shifted to contemporary art. At first, the show was limited to works from Europe, but soon covered works by artists from the Americas, Africa and Asia. 4. documenta, the first ever to turn a profit, featured a selection of Pop Art, Minimal Art, and Kinetic Art.[6] Adopting the theme of Questioning Reality – Pictorial Worlds Today, the 1972 documenta radically redefined what could be considered art by featuring minimal and conceptual art, marking a turning point in the public acceptance of those styles.[7] Also, it devoted a large section to the work of Adolf Wolfli, the great Swiss outsider, then unknown. Joseph Beuys performed repeatedly under the auspices of his utopian Organization for Direct Democracy.[8] Additionally, the 1987 documenta show signaled another important shift with the elevation of design to the realm of art – showing an openness to postmodern design.[9] Certain key political dates for wide-reaching social and cultural upheavals, such as 1945, 1968 or 1976/77, became chronological markers of documenta X (1997), along which art's political, social, cultural and aesthetic exploratory functions were traced.[10] Documenta11 was organized around themes like migration, urbanization and the post-colonial experience,[11] with documentary photography, film and video as well as works from far-flung locales holding the spotlight.[7] In 2012, documenta (13) was described as "[a]rdently feminist, global and multimedia in approach and including works by dead artists and selected bits of ancient art".[12]
Criticism
documenta typically gives its artists at least two years to conceive and produce their projects, so the works are often elaborate and intellectually complex.[13] However, the participants are often not publicised before the very opening of the exhibition. At documenta (13), the official list of artists was not released until the day the show opened.[14] Even though curators have often claimed to have gone outside the art market in their selection, participants have always included established artists. In the documenta (13), for example, art critic Jerry Saltz identified more than a third of the artists represented by the renowned Marian Goodman Gallery in the show.[14]
Directors
The first four documentas, organized by Arnold Bode, established the exhibition's international credentials. Since the fifth documenta (1972), a new artistic director has been named for each documenta exhibition by a committee of experts. Documenta 8 was put together in two years instead of the usual five. The original directors, Edy de Wilde and Harald Szeemann, were unable to get along and stepped down. They were replaced by Manfred Schneckenburger, Edward F. Fry, Wulf Herzogenrath, Armin Zweite, and Vittorio Fagone.[15] Coosje van Bruggen helped select artists for documenta 7, the 1982 edition. documenta IX's team of curators consisted of Jan Hoet, Piero Luigi Tazzi, Denys Zacharopoulos, and Bart de Baere.[16] For documenta X Catherine David was chosen as the first woman and the first non-German speaker to hold the post. It is also the first and unique time that its website Documenta x was conceived by a curator (swiss curator Simon Lamunière) as a part of the exhibition. The first non-European director was Okwui Enwezor for Documenta11.[17]

2012's edition was organized around a central node, the trans-Atlantic melding of two distinct individuals who first encountered each other in the "money-soaked deserts of the United Arab Emirates". As an organizing principle it is simultaneously a commentary on the romantic potentials of globalization and also a critique of how digital platforms can complicate or interrogate the nature of such relationships. Curatorial agents refer to the concept as possessing a "fricative potential for productive awkwardness," wherein a twosome is formed for the purposes of future exploration.[23]
Venues
documenta is held in different venues in Kassel. Since 1955, the fixed venue has been the Fridericianum. The documenta-Halle was built in 1992 for documenta IX and now houses some of the exhibitions. Other venues used for documenta have included the Karlsaue park, Schloss Wilhelmshöhe, the Neue Galerie, the Ottoneum, and the Kulturzentrum Schlachthof. Though Okwui Enezor notably tried to subvert the euro-centric approach documenta had taken, he instigated a series of five platforms before the Documenta11 in Vienna, Berlin, New Delhi, St Lucia, and Lagos, in an attempt to take documenta into a new post-colonial, borderless space, from which experimental cultures could emerge. documenta 12 occupied five locations, including the Fridericianum, the Wilhelmshöhe castle park and the specially constructed "Aue-Pavillon", or meadow pavilion, designed by French firm Lacaton et Vassal.[24] At documenta (13) (2012), about a fifth of the works were unveiled in places like Kabul, Afghanistan, and Banff, Canada.[13]
There are also a number of works that are usually presented outside, most notably in Friedrichsplatz, in front of the Fridericianum, and the Karlsaue park. To handle the number of artworks at documenta IX, five connected temporary "trailers" in glass and corrugated metal were built in the Karlsaue.[25] For documenta (13), French architects Anne Lacaton and Jean-Philippe Vassal constructed the temporary "Aue-Pavillon" in the park.
Rahmenbau (1977) by Haus Rucker und Co.
A few of the works exhibited at various documentas remained as purchases in Kassel museums. They include 7000 Eichen by Joseph Beuys; Rahmenbau (1977) by Haus-Rucker-Co; Laserscape Kassel (1977) by Horst H. Baumann; Traumschiff Tante Olga (1977) by Anatol Herzfeld; Vertikaler Erdkilometer by Walter De Maria; Spitzhacke (1982) by Claes Oldenburg; Man walking to the sky (1992) by Jonathan Borofsky; and Fremde by Thomas Schütte (one part of the sculptures are installed on Rotes Palais at Friedrichsplatz, the other on the roof of the Concert Hall in Lübeck).
documenta archive
The extensive volume of material that is regularly generated on the occasion of this exhibition prompted Arnold Bode to create an archive in 1961. The heart of the archive’s collection comes from the files and materials of the documenta organization. A continually expanding video and image archive is also part of the collection as are the independently organized bequests of Arnold Bode and artist Harry Kramer.
Management
Visitors
In 1992, on the occasion of documenta IX, for the first time in the history of the documenta, more than half a million people traveled to Kassel.[26] The 2002 edition of documenta attracted 650,000 visitors, more than triple Kassel's population.[27] In 2007, documenta 12 drew 754,000 paying visitors, with more than one-third of the visitors coming from abroad and guests from neighboring Netherlands, France, Belgium and Austria among the most numerous.[28] In 2012, documenta (13) had 904,992 visitors.[21]

lumbung
Short concept by ruangrupa for documenta 15
"We want to create a globally oriented, cooperative, interdisciplinary art and culture platform that will remain effective beyond the 100 days of documenta fifteen. Our curatorial approach aims at a different kind of collaborative model of resource use—economically, but also in terms of ideas, knowledge, programs, and innovation."
ruangrupa’s central curatorial approach for documenta fifteen is based on the principles of collectivity, resource building, and equal sharing. They aim to appeal not just to an art audience but to a variety of communities, and to promote local commitment and participation. Their approach is based on an international network of local, community-based organizations from the art and other cultural contexts and can be outlined by the Indonesian term lumbung. lumbung, directly translatable as “rice barn,” is a collective pot or accumulation system used in rural areas of Indonesia, where crops produced by a community are stored as a future shared common resource and distributed according to jointly determind criteria. Using lumbung as a model, documenta fifteen is a collective resource pot, operating under the logics of the commons. It is an agglomeration of ideas, stories, (wo)manpower, time, and other shareable resources. At the center of lumbung is the imagination and the building of these collective, shared resources into new models of sustainable ideas and cultural practices. This will be fostered by residencies, assemblies, public activities, and the development of tools.
Interdisciplinarity is key in this process. It is where art meets activism, management, and networking to gather support, understand environments, and identify local resources. These elements then create actions and spaces, intertwine social relations and transactions; they slowly grow and organically find a public form. This is a strategy “to live in and with society.” It imagines the relations an art institution has with its community by being an active constituent of it. Strategies are then developed based on proximity and shared desires.
The main principles of the process are:
• Providing space to gather and explore ideas
• Collective decision making
• Non-centralization
• Playing between formalities and informalities
• Practicing assembly and meeting points
• Architectural awareness
• Being spatially active to promote conversation
• A melting pot for and from everyone’s thoughts, energies, and ideas

En Madrid se halla una multitud de nobles, unos opulentos, otros ricos y mucha parte pobres que no contribuyen poco a la decadencia de su población, a la agricultura, al comercio y fábricas. La alta idea que tienen concebida de su nacimiento los entretiene en la inacción, y en la ociosidad, con el pretexto de adquirir algún empleo capaz de mantener su familia con decencia, y no ponerle algún borrón, [rehúyen] el aplicarse al comercio, a las manufacturas, o a cualquier género de industria, y desprecian con altanería al labrador y al artesano. En España el que tiene origen noble, toda su descendencia es noble, por más pobre y vaga que sea; como al contrario el labrador y artesano por más riquezas que hayan adquirido [...] si no nació noble nunca lo será, si no se le concede tal privilegio por el Rey.
LARRUGA, E.: Memorias políticas y económicas, 1787, pp. 9-10.
Comentario
Eugenio Larruga Boneta (Zaragoza, 1745-Madrid, 1803) fue un historiador y economista español. Catedrático en la Universidad de Zaragoza, ocupó diversos cargos institucionales. Realizó estudios sobre la economía y la administración territorial española. Es considerado una de las figuras más prominentes de la Ilustración en España. Entre sus libros destaca las Memorias políticas y económicas sobre los frutos, fábricas, comercio y minas de España, con inclusión de las órdenes, disposiciones y reglamentos expedidos para su gobierno y fomento. Con ayuda estatal, fue publicando esta magna obra entre 1787 y 1800, bien que quedó inconclusa. El fragmento que figura en el examen procede de esta obra, en concreto del primer tomo.
En el texto el autor realiza una crítica a la nobleza española, a la que considera como una de la que causas del atraso económico de la nación, pues todo aquel que se considere noble cree que se deshonra si trabaja en el comercio o en las manufacturas, considerando la agricultura y la artesanía como especialmente humillantes. Estos prejuicios pasan de padres a hijos, pues la condición de aristócrata es hereditaria y afecta a toda la descendencia. Además no depende del nivel de riqueza, sino que únicamente se consigue por nacimiento o mediante nombramiento real. La abundancia de nobles en la ciudad de Madrid se explica por qué en la capital existen más posibilidades de conseguir empleos «honrosos» como escribanos, procuradores, abogados…
El fragmento es una muestra elocuente de la desigualdad jurídica y el inmovilismo que caracterizaba a la sociedad estamental, con una marcada división entre grupos privilegiados (nobleza y clero) y el llamado tercer estado. Los ilustrados y la dinastía borbónica intentaron cambiar esta situación, llegándose a publicar en 1783 una Real Cédula que decretaba que los oficios artesanales ni eran deshonrosos ni inhabilitaban para la función pública. Con todo, hubo que esperar a las revoluciones liberales, en concreto a la Regencia de María Cristina de Borbón, para liquidar el entramado jurídico del Antiguo Régimen, y aun así, se realizó mediante transacciones que permitieron a la nobleza conservar (e incluso aumentar) sus posesiones.
Observaciones:
1. El texto de Eugenio Larruga registra en las pruebas de 2014 - 2015 su primera aparición en la selectividad andaluza. Hay que recordar que el primer tema se introdujo en el curso 2012-2013, por lo que su repertorio de prácticas resulta muy limitado. Con todo, se debe recordar que en los primeros exámenes del milenio aparecían contenidos de esta etapa de la Historia de España.
2. La reproducción del texto supone una adaptación del original bastante chapucera. Donde aparece «y no ponerle algún borrón, [rehúyen] el aplicarse al comercio» debería figurar «y no ponerle algún borrón; porque su política gradúa de tal el aplicarse al comercio». Más abajo se ha suprimido un revelador «en su tráfico e industria, en beneficio y ventajas del estado».
3 .En la selectividad se otras latitudes se incluye un segundo párrafo que ayuda, y no poco, a clarificar el sentido del texto. Añadiendo esta segunda parte y corrigiendo las adaptaciones el texto quedaría así:
«En Madrid se halla una multitud de nobles, unos opulentos, otros ricos y mucha parte pobres que no contribuyen poco a la decadencia de su población, a la agricultura, al comercio y fábricas.
La alta idea que tienen concebida de su nacimiento los entretiene en la inacción, y en la ociosidad, con el pretexto de adquirir algún empleo capaz de mantener su familia con decencia, y no ponerle algún borrón, porque su política gradúa de tal el aplicarse al comercio, a las manufacturas, o a cualquier género de industria, y desprecian con altanería al labrador y al artesano. En España, el que tiene origen noble, toda su descendencia es noble, por más pobre y vaga que sea; como al contrario, el labrador y el artesano, por más riquezas que hayan adquirido con su tráfico o industria, en beneficio y ventajas del Estado, si no nació noble, nunca lo será, si no se le concede tal privilegio por el Rey.
De ahí proviene que el mercader y el artesano que llegó a hacerse rico, se llena de vanidad y abandona el comercio y las artes y procura aplicar a sus hijos a los empleos que tienen por honrosos; y no de otro principio nace tanto número de frailes, abogados, escribanos, procuradores, agentes y otras personas de sobra. Como los hijos de éstos no pueden sostenerse muertos sus padres, se echan a escribientes o a pajes. En el diario se lee la multitud de jóvenes desacomodados que buscan su fortuna por este camino; los que la mayor parte hubieran quedado en sus lugares, sino les hubiera cautivado el cebo halagüeño de labrar su fortuna con comodidad, y a costa del sudor de las partes más desvalida del estado.»

El cuadro que preside esta entrada es «La Cocina» de Ramón Bayeu y Subías. Fue realizado como «cartón» o modelo para para la madrileña Real Fábrica de Tapices de Santa Bárbara en torno a 1780. Se trata de un óleo sobre lienzo cuyas medidas son 126 x 199 centímetros.
El tapiz realizado, que pertenece al Patrimonio Nacional, se encuentra en el Palacio de la Granja de San Ildefonso. El cuadro aparece descrito en los recibos de entrega como: «Una cocina con trebejos correspondientes de alambres y en ella se ve al cocinero y al galopín pelando caza y dos mujeres trabajando, y otra para servir». Fue tasado en 3.000 reales.
En junio de 2009 esta obra fue vendida en una subasta extraordinaria realizada en la madrileña Sala Retiro. El precio de salida fue de 100.000 euros. Se desconoce la cifra que, finalmente, alcanzó. Fue adquirido por el empresario y gran coleccionista de arte Juan Antonio Pérez Simón, de origen español y nacionalidad mexicana. Se exhibe, en concepto de depósito, en el Museo de Asturias, emplazado en la ciudad de Oviedo.

Lillinonah’s Leap
Reprinted From:
Legendary Connecticut
Traditional Tales from the Nutmeg State
By David E. Philips
www.friendsofthelake.org/downloads/lillinonah_leap.200312...
When the English colonies in New England were very young, there was hardly an Indian
between the Hudson and the Penobscot Rivers who did not know about Chief Waramaug,
the great sachem of the Pootatuck tribe of western Connecticut. Not only was he
respected far and wide for his courage, wisdom and charismatic leadership, but also
admired by all for his magnificent hilltop headquarters overlooking the Housaronic River,
not far above the present town of New Milford. Called “Waramaug’s Palace,” the
structure was said to have been at least twenty feet wide and a hundred feet long, a “long
hours,” indeed, and unquestionable the largest Indian building ever constructed in New
England.
Made from bark and logs which had to be carried for many miles (mostly up hill) on the
backs of the artisans who built it, Warmamaug’s Palace was famed both for its
architectural grandeur and its ornate interior decoration. It is said, for example, that the
wall of the cavernous main council chamber were covered with colorful painting of the
chief, member of his family, his councilors and judges, while smaller apartments were
adorned from floor to ceiling with pictures of all the beasts, birds, reptiles and insects to
be found in the land of the Pootatucks. The best Indian artists, many loaned to
Waramaug by the chiefs of distant tribes, labored for months to complete the unique
administration building and museum of primitive art.
As proud as Waramaug was of his imposing palace, he was even prouder of the light of
his life, his lovely daughter, Lillinonah. Taught from birth to cultivate those virtues most
revered by her father – compassion for one’s fellow man, loyalty to family and tribe and
sensitivity to the beauties of Nature – Lillinonah was, at the age of eighteen, a young
woman whose humanity matched her grace and beauty. From near and far the young
braves came, as moths to the flame, to pay homage to Lillinonah – and perhaps win her hand in marriage. But first, of course, each had to pass muster with old Waramaug, and
that was no simple matter.
Not it happened that on a cold and wintry day, as Lillinonah was out waling in the woods
high above the swift rapids of the Housatonic, she came upon a handsome young white
man wandering aimlessly through the forest, stumbling occasionally and falling to his
knees before rising once more and continuing on. It was obvious to the Indian maiden
that the man was sick with cold and fever, weak of body and confused of mind. With pity
in her heart for the suffering stranger, she offered to assist him back to the village of the
Pootatucks, where he might find rest and treatment for his illness. When the white man
nodded his assent, she slowly walked him to her home, though he had to lean heavily
upon her for support, lest he collapse in the effort.
Although the elders of the village did not approve and did nothing to help her, Lillinonah
nursed the stricken Englishman through all the rest of the long, cold winter, seldom
leaving his side. As spring came to the encampment of the Pootatucks, he was well
along the road to recovery, thanks to the care of his attentive nurse and the good
medicine which she had provided. With the blossoming of the mountain laurel on the
banks of the Housatonic, love, too, bloomed in the house of Lillinonah. As the beautiful
daughter of Waramaug gazed with undisguised affection into the eyes of the man whose
life she had saved, she saw that he returned her adoration with unaffected ardor.
When summer came, the two young lovers finally decided that they must got to Chief
Waramaug, for a love as deep as theirs must be consummated by marriage. The great
sachem’s reaction, however, was as they both expected: he was very angry. With all the
eligible Indian suitors for miles around still beating a path to her door, how dare Lillinonah
ask for his blessings on a union with a white man, an unknown stranger whose culture
was so different from her own? Was it not true that the paleface despised the Indians,
regarding them as little better than the savage beasts of the forest? No, said Waramaug,
never would he sanction Lillinonah’s marriage to such a man.
But Lillinonah refused to eat or drink. Her once lovely face turned sallow and she began
to shrink before the very eyes of her distraught father. As summer waned, the once
beautiful daughter of Waramaug became a pale shadow of her former self, so great was
her pain and powerful her will. Finally, although he still regarded marriage between his
daughter and a white man as a burden almost too heavy to bear, Waramaug relented.Reluctantly, he consented to the marriage of his beloved Lillinonah to the man she had
found lost in the woods on that long ago winter’s day.
Before the marriage could take place, the betrothed couple agreed, the fair young man
should return to his own people, to let them know that he was still alive and well, and to
tell them of his plans to wed Lillinonah and live for the rest of his life in the company of the
Poootatucks. Both lovers realized that his people would urge him not to go back to his
lovely Indian princess. They would remind him that there were plenty of young English
women in the colonies just looking for a husband as attractive as he was. What right had
he to wed a dusky maid from a foreign and inferior race? But he promised Lillinonah that
no argument would ever persuade him to break his vow to marry. After one final winter
with his own people, he would return to Lillinonah – in the early spring. Sadly, he took his
leave.
The autumn passed, and winter, too, and as the first green began to show in the hickory
and oak along the Housatonic, Lillinonah bedecked herself with the wild flowers of the
forest as she waited in happy anticipation for her lover’s return. But summer came and
went, the reds and yellows of autumn showed bright on the trees, and still the young
Englishman had not come back to the land of the Pootatucks. Lillinonah no longer sand a
joyous song. There were no more flowers in her hair. Wan and listless, she wandered
through the woods, her eyes red-rimmed from weeping, searching and hoping against
hope that she had not been forgotten.
Chief Waramaug watched sadly as once more his daughter’s health began to fail and her
usually happy disposition to run morose under mounting waves of despondency.
Perhaps, he thought, he might bring her back from the brink of depression if he could only
interest her in a young man of her own race. So, unknown to Lillinonah, Waramaug
arranged a marriage for her with Eagle Feather, one of the brightest, most promising
braves in the Pootatuck tribe. Surely, such a fine youth as he, could give Lillinonah
something to live for.
But word reached Lillinonah of her father’s arrangement with Eagle Feather – and she
reacted immediately. Down on the shore of the Housatonic River, now rapid and swollen
with the heavy rains of autumn, she climbed into a canoe and shoved off into the teeth of
the roaring current. As the canoe was carried faster and faster toward the turbulent waters above the dangerous falls of the river, Lillinonah tossed away her paddle and sand
back in the bottom of the canoe to await her fate.
Then, high on a crag jutting over the river just above the cataract, she saw him! Her lost
lover had not forgotten. Even above the roar of the water she heard him call her name.
She stood in the canoe, waved her arms and screamed for help. Though he knew his
chances of saving his beloved were slim at best, the young Englishman did not hesitate
for a moment. He leaped from the overhanging bluff and plunged into the whitened
water, just as Lillinonah’s canoe struck a rock in the middle of the river and capsized,
spilling her into the frothy current. Swiftly as he could, he swam to her side and clasped
her body to him. Alas, neither realized that it was already too late. Still wrapped in loving
embrace, the doomed pair disappeared into the boiling falls and were crushed to death as
they were hurled to the rocks in the broad pool below.
They say that when the battered bodies of the star-crossed lovers were finally found, they
were still locked in each other’s arms. Noble, even in deepest mourning for his lost
Lillinonah, Chief Waramaug ordered that his daughter and her white lover be buried side
by side, contrary to Indian tradition, on the top of a hill overlooking the narrow gap of the
Housatonic River non known as Lover’s Leap. And when old Waramaug finally joined his
ancestors many dad years later, legend says that he, too, was laid to rest near the illfated
couple.
Though the tragic life of Lillinonah ended centuries ago, her legend will never be
forgotten. Any Connecticut map will show that the wide portion of the Housatonic River
which stretches for mils below the narrow rapids where the lovers met their deaths is, to
this day, still called Lake Lillinonah.

Οι δύο ενσαρκώσεις ολοκληρώνουν τη σημασία της ενσάρκωσης
Αν είχε πραγματοποιηθεί το έργο του Ιησού χωρίς να συμπληρώνεται από το έργο σε αυτό το στάδιο των εσχάτων ημερών, τότε ο άνθρωπος θα παρέμενε για πάντα προσκολλημένος στην αντίληψη ότι μόνο ο Ιησούς είναι ο Υιός του Θεού ο μονογενής, δηλαδή, ότι ο Θεός είχε μόνο έναν γιο και ότι οποιοσδήποτε άλλος ακολουθούσε έπειτα, υπό κάποιο άλλο όνομα, δεν θα ήταν ο Υιός του Θεού, πόσο μάλλον ο ίδιος ο Θεός. Ο άνθρωπος έχει την αντίληψη ότι όποιος λειτουργεί ως θυσία εξιλέωσης των αμαρτιών ή όποιος αναλαμβάνει την εξουσία εκ μέρους του Θεού και λυτρώνει όλους τους ανθρώπους, είναι ο Υιός του Θεού ο μονογενής. Υπάρχουν κάποιοι που πιστεύουν ότι εφόσον Εκείνος που θα έρθει είναι άντρας, θα μπορεί να θεωρείται ο Υιός του Θεού ο μονογενής και ο εκπρόσωπος του Θεού, ενώ υπάρχουν ακόμα κι εκείνοι που λένε ότι ο Ιησούς είναι ο Υιός του Ιεχωβά, ο μοναδικός Του Υιός. Δεν είναι αυτή μια εξαιρετικά υπερφίαλη αντίληψη του ανθρώπου; Αν δεν πραγματοποιούταν αυτό το στάδιο του έργου στην τελική εποχή, μια σκοτεινή σκιά θα κάλυπτε ολόκληρη την ανθρωπότητα, όσον αφορά στον Θεό. Σε μια τέτοια περίπτωση, ο άντρας θα θεωρούσε τον εαυτό του ανώτερο από τη γυναίκα, οι γυναίκες δεν θα μπορούσαν ποτέ να έχουν το κεφάλι ψηλά, κι έτσι, ούτε μία γυναίκα δεν θα μπορούσε να σωθεί. Οι άνθρωποι πιστεύουν πάντοτε ότι ο Θεός είναι άντρας και, επιπλέον, ότι εκείνος ανέκαθεν απεχθανόταν τη γυναίκα και ότι δεν θα της έδινε τη σωτηρία. Σε μια τέτοια περίπτωση, δεν θα ήταν αλήθεια ότι όλες οι γυναίκες, οι οποίες δημιουργήθηκαν από τον Ιεχωβά κι έχουν επίσης διαφθαρεί, δεν θα είχαν ποτέ μια ευκαιρία να σωθούν; Τότε, δεν θα ήταν άσκοπο για τον Ιεχωβά να δημιουργήσει τη γυναίκα, δηλαδή, να δημιουργήσει την Εύα; Η γυναίκα δεν θα χανόταν για όλη την αιωνιότητα; Γι’ αυτόν τον λόγο, πρέπει να πραγματοποιηθεί το στάδιο του έργου στις έσχατες ημέρες, προκειμένου να σωθεί ολόκληρη η ανθρωπότητα, όχι μόνο η γυναίκα, αλλά όλη η ανθρωπότητα. Αυτό το έργο γίνεται για χάρη όλης της ανθρωπότητας, όχι μόνο για χάρη της γυναίκας. Αν κάποιος πιστεύει κάτι διαφορετικό, τότε είναι πολύ ανόητος!

JOHN CARL HUBINGER (1851-1907)
HUBINGER, JOHN C., manufacturer, millionaire and public benefactor, is one of the most remarkable men of this country; a Napoleon in business affairs, a man of destiny, through his own indomitable will, tireless energy and brilliant genius he has built up a magnificent structure on a financial foundation as solid as the rock of Gibraltar.
Mr. Hubinger was born in New Orleans, La., forty-six years ago, and is the son of John F. Hubinger, who was born in Bavaria, in 1828, and still survives, as well as his mother, who is a native of France.
It will this be seen that Mr. Hubinger, having been born in Louisiana, is a Creole, a term peculiar to the state, and having the same significance as Buckeye to those born in Ohio, or Nutmegs to those who first saw the light of day in Connecticut.
At the age of 4 his family moved north and at Falmouth, Ky., young Hubinger received in the public schools the first and only educational training he ever received from any school system; this experience covered about four years of study, and he applied himself so closely that he got a fair foundation, which he has since built on by private study and observation, until to-day he can be considered a well informed man outside of business matters, in which he excels.
His career has been an eventful one, full of exciting incidents, and it is a remarkable fact that he was 30 years of age before he amassed his first thousand dollars, having innumerable ups and downs in life, but never despairing and always aggressive.
It would require a volume the size of this to recount a history of his life from the time he started out to earn a living up to the present time when he controls millions of business interests, and is at the zenith of his usefulness. We will not attempt anything more than a passing notice of such facts as will interest his friends.
Of an inventive turn, he secured several patents which he sold to more or less advantage, and tried innumerable schemes at one time or another, succeeding at times and losing at others his little capital, through the boldness of his methods.
The idea of Elastic starch came to him years ago, when he acted as agent for a starch concern, and he had it constantly in mind, eventually arriving at the secret which he holds alone to-day, and which has make Elastic starch the most popular in the market.
In connection with his two brothers he founded the Elastic Starch company, at New Haven Conn., under the name of The J. C. Hubinger Bros.' Co., and at a later period opened another factory at Keokuk, Iowa, where he subsequently amassed a large fortune and became known as one of the most enterprising and public spirited citizens in the state.
In the west his interests are colossal, as well as the ventures which he has made successful; among his holdings being large tracts of real estate, improved and unimproved, in different parts of the western country.
He is owner of the Keokuk street railway system, the electric light plant and system, the Mississippi Valley Telephone company, capitalized at $2,225,000. This takes in a large number of cities in that section, and is the most dangerous and largest competitor of the Bell Telephone company in America, having over 10,000 telephone subscribers.
A man of rare executive ability, he finds time to personally direct the policy of all the enterprises in which he is interested, and at the same time to evolve many more brilliant schemes of a local nature, all of which are put through in a practical and successful way.
The magnitude of his transactions almost surpass belief; in the starch business they dispose of about 25,000,000 packages each year, the legitimate profits from which are enormous, and in other ways he handles not less than $3,000,000 annually.
His liberality is the marvel of the country in which he is known, and at his palatial home, overlooking the historic Mississippi river, he and his charming wife dispense a boundless hospitality to those fortunate enough to be their guests. All the luxuries and benefits that wealth can procure are there supplied, and an atmosphere of culture and refinement pervade the entire establishment.
Mr. Hubinger's family consists of himself, wife and four children, and while fond of promoting large enterprises, he is still fonder of the home circle and there spends all of his time that is not taken up by business cares.

Durante o período de férias, após a mudança de governo municipal com a posse do novo prefeito de Belford Roxo Alcides Rolim do PT (Partido dos Trabalhadores) e novo secretário municipal de educação William Campos, eu me dirigia até a secretaria de educação para tentar dar ciência ao novo governo municipal e ao novo secretário que eu me encontrava sem condições de trabalho pelos problemas de saúde, sociais e administrativos. Que eu me encontrava sob cuidados médicos desde março de 2008 com indicação de me manter afastada do trabalho. E que, segundo a médica que me avaliava, sem resolução da situação de estresse dificilmente haveria resolução do quadro apresentado.
PARTE DO PROCESSO DE 2003 escrito à mão COM ASSINATURA E MATRÍCULAS MUNICIPAIS. "...

O secretário de educação William Campos nunca podia me atender. Na primeira vez, no dia 9 de janeiro de 2009 quem ouviu os meus relatos foi a subsecretária de educação Joana D'arc que também atendia pelo nome de Joelma e era esposa do outro subsecretário de educação Miguel de Sousa Ramiro. O subsecretário Miguel de Sousa Ramiro também ao lado dela participou do nosso encontro ouvindo tudo atentamente. O outro subsecretário de educação Clayton apareceu na sala para nos observar e me deu um tchauzinho. A senhora subsecretária Joana D'arc anotou o meu nome e as escolas municipais onde eu estava lotada no seu caderno e pediu que eu ordenasse melhor os relatos, grampeasse e fizesse constar a ciência ao secretário municipal de educação William Campos.

Uma funcionária pública da Prefeitura municipal de Belford Roxo que havia trabalhado comigo na primeira escola de 1995 a 2002 e ficou sabendo da situação em que eu me encontrava, mais uma vez precisando de ajuda, me ligou muito preocupada comigo e querendo me ajudar disse que era para eu ir com ela até a secretaria municipal de educação de Belford Roxo com o LAUDO MÉDICO que a MÉDICA PSIQUIÁTRICA que me tratava desde 16/05/2008 havia me dado de DOENÇAS MENTAIS influenciadas por PROBLEMAS SOCIAIS e referentes ao meu TRABALHO.

O subsecretário de educação nos garantiu que ele mesmo resolveria os meus problemas através do envio da frequência pela condição médica e DISCRIMINAÇÃO no trabalho. O subsecretário Miguel constatou que 21 processos meus continuavam com NOME e SEXO MASCULINOS, que eu nunca havia conseguido tirar uma licença prêmio e os 90 dias de férias que tinha direito por ter estado em período de férias a disposição do Juiz. O funcionário da secretaria de educação confirmou ao subsecretário Miguel que sabia que o meu nome e sexo nos registros já deveria ter sido alterado desde 2005. Naquele momento uma outra funcionária da secretaria de educação de Belford Roxo que era loira e tinha um cargo relacionado a área jurídica disse para mim e Creusa palavras muito confortadoras e bonitas contra a situação de preconceito.
Seu prenome masculino sempre lhe causou muito constrangimento, sobretudo atualmente, após a operação de reversão sexual.

Duas semanas depois, com a nomeação do supervisor educacional e consultor jurídico Jorge Silva (mat. 54368) como assessor jurídico da Secretaria de Educação de Belford Roxo, por telefone, o subsecretário Miguel de Sousa Ramiro disse que se esqueceu de tudo que ele havia prometido para mim e a Creusa, inclusive do LAUDO MÉDICO PSIQUIÁTRICO que ele havia tomado ciência. O subsecretário Miguel me disse que ele só faria o que o Jorge Silva mandasse ele fazer e passou o telefone celular dele para o Jorge Silva. Eu fiquei completamente descontrolada e bati boca com o Jorge Silva por telefone. Uma das coisas que eu me lembro que o Jorge Silva me falou ao telefone era que eu deveria comparecer na Secretaria Municipal de Belford Roxo na próxima segunda-feira onde eu seria exposta para a TV Globo como uma professora faltosa.

CLICAR ABAIXO PARA LER SOBRE:
1- Em processo administrativo de 2003 eu pedi para que a Prefeitura Municipal de Belford Roxo custeasse um tratamento Psicológico e Psiquiátrico para mim alegando que eu não me encontrava mais depois de tudo que havia passado no serviço público da rede de educação em condições de desempenhar minhas funções equilibradamente, mas eu não fui atendida. No mesmo parágrafo do processo de 2003 arquivado pela Procuradoria do Município, eu registrei "que inúmeras vezes me encontrava chorando e relembrando esses tristes episódios no trabalho que não conseguia mais tirá-los da minha cabeça sentindo um vazio muito grande e outros sintomas psiquiátricos que não conseguia explicar pedindo em nome do Senhor Jesus Cristo ajuda médica ".
2- Minha doença profissional começou em 2002 quando inclusive fui ameaçada de morte. Em 2003 após conseguir procurar ajuda médica passei a fazer uso de remédios psicotrópicos para conseguir exercer minhas funções como professora da rede municipal de Belford Roxo.
3- Após ser novamente ameaçada de morte em 2007 pela orientadora pedagógica que disse que eu tinha que sair da escola por ser transexual e que me perseguia, voltei a ter agravamento de quadro psicológico e emocional.

5- Mais um evento traumático comigo ficou impune devido ao meu estado de abatimento, apatia e inércia. Eu fui retirada à força de dentro do banheiro feminino da Prefeitura e jogada no chão da escada por aproximadamente 8 guardas-municipais a mando do subsecretário Paulo Allevato.
6- Procurador-geral Lorival Almeida de Oliveira mentiu dizendo que eu recebi cópia de processo para me defender. Não me permitiram tirar cópia nem ler o processo que me puniu.
7- Em maio de 2008 a médica psiquiátrica verificou que dificilmente haveria SOLUÇÃO do meu QUADRO DE DEPRESSÃO porque NÃO HAVIA RESOLUÇÃO DOS PROBLEMAS SOCIAIS referentes ao meu trabalho que me estressavam.
8- O suicídio era um dos pensamentos diários. Os remédios não faziam o efeito.

14- Os danos ocasionados pelo relatório técnico de 2002 e procedimento administrativo decorrente nunca foram resolvidos.
15- Relatório técnico de conhecimento de supervisores educacionais de Belford Roxo que posteriormente sumiu e foi anunciado como inexistente foi usado para me ameaçar e impedir que eu acessasse, permanecesse e trabalhasse em escola que lecionava a 8 anos.
16- Os problemas ocasionados pelo relatório técnico e procedimento administrativo decorrente nunca foram resolvidos. (PARTE 2)
17- O RELATÓRIO SOBRE O II CONSELHO DE CLASSE DE 2007 NA ESCOLA MUNICIPAL JORGE AYRES DE LIMA FEITO PELA ORIENTADORA PEDAGÓGICA CONCEIÇÃO COM O OBJETIVO discriminatório DE ME PREJUDICAR.

19- Procuradora de Belford Roxo DÉBORA FERNANDES CORDEIRO PINTO (matrícula 80/28.585) também ligada a igreja evangélica recusou por 2 vezes o meu pedido de readmissão. FOI CURTA E GROSSA. NÃO COMENTOU SOBRE O LAUDO MÉDICO APRESENTADO. NÃO SE INTERESSOU EM AVERIGUAR O QUADRO PSIQUIÁTRICO. NÃO FEZ REFERÊNCIA AOS PROBLEMAS SOCIAIS E AO PRECONCEITO NO TRABALHO. IGNOROU TUDO SIMPLESMENTE.
20- Não condene alguém com transtorno bipolar com sintomas psicóticos no mundo do trabalho. É o que eu posso ensinar às pessoas para que o mundo seja um pouco melhor diante do quadro em que eu vivi no meu emprego de professora concursada e efetiva da Prefeitura Municipal de Belford Roxo.
21- O Ato de Demissão nas 2 matrículas em 2010.

My first instinct was to exit Union Station and to head directly toward the Mall. It was about 9:30 am at this point, and the shindig apparently started up at about 10pm. Just like on Sunday, I knew I wouldn’t get a crème de la crème location… and yet for some reason I thought I could just beeline straight toward the Mall? What was I thinking??
Sure enough, heading down Louisiana Avenue NW, we soon came to a roadblock at 1st Street NW. We turned right to head up First Street, since that would take us away from the Mall… that’s a smart idea, right? Surely there’d be fewer crowds! Well, our little segment of 1st Street approaching D Street was only about 300 feet long. It took an hour to get off that block.
The problems were many. Firstly, our block along First Street had people trying to get away from the roadblock (like us) heading northward. Then there were people with tickets to get those choice seats on the Mall; they were heading southward. I think we actually did a decent job of separating ourselves by the “keep right” method.
Then there were the people approaching the pending 1st & D St. intersection… they were coming westward from along D Street. Most of these people were trying to turn left… to head south… either to join the ticket line or just thinking that they could get closer to the Mall. They came head-to-head with our line trying to go eastward on D Street. Further north on 1st Street and further west on D Street were both not going to work – they were just as packed and immobile as our present situation.
Ambulances were approaching from the north and west, all trying to go eastward on D Street… the complicated matters. For a brief moment we were able to fill into the wake of a motorcycle going our direction, but others had the same idea & we didn’t get particularly far with that. People (civilians, soldiers, police, fire personnel… everyone) were up on concrete barriers shouting and pointing in all directions, providing little assistance. Citizens hoping to help clear things up were shouting out orders in direct conflict with those coming from officials… and then they’d suddenly reverse and shout an opposite order… and then they’d reverse again… both citizens and officials were doing this. I think the head-to-head crowds kind of flustered everyone there.
So it took an hour to get through. During this time, however, I came to identify a particular personality which would be prevalent the entire day: that of absolute kindness & excitement. In these sorts of situations, you often get a couple people pushing hard on the crowd… with one exception, we didn’t have that at all; and that one exception soon stopped when the crowd recoiled against them & proved that it wasn’t about to move any faster. Also in such crowds, those little tiny pushes that almost everyone makes on the person in front of them tends to add up – really making a powerful force on those in front… we really didn’t have that, either, except right at the very end where we freed up.
Details about pushing aside, the comradery was what really made things stand out. People were generally upbeat the whole way through, making brief acquaintances with those beside them – even if just for a fleeting moment before someone would get a chance to shift two steps away, out of vocal range. This optimistic sentiment lasted throughout the day: it was crowded, it was cold, and people were being forced to march horrendous distances… but that was the happiest I’ve ever seen people at any point in my 25 and a half years on this planet.

Εκκλησία του Παντοδύναμου Θεού
Ο Θεός λέει:«...Ποιος είναι ο τρίτος τρόπος; Είναι το πώς ο Σατανάς χρησιμοποιεί την παράδοση για να διαφθείρει τον άνθρωπο. Υπάρχουν πολλές ομοιότητες ανάμεσα στην παράδοση και στη δεισιδαιμονία, μόνο που η παράδοση εμπεριέχει ορισμένες ιστορίες, αναφορές και πηγές. Ο Σατανάς έχει κατασκευάσει και εφεύρει πολλούς λαϊκούς μύθους ή ιστορίες σε βιβλία ιστορίας, αφήνοντας τους ανθρώπους με μια βαθιά χαραγμένη εικόνα για την παράδοση ή για δεισιδαιμονικούς χαρακτήρες. Ας πάρουμε, για παράδειγμα, στην Κίνα Τους Οχτώ Αθάνατους που διασχίζουν τη Θάλασσα, Το ταξίδι προς τη Δύση, τον Αυτοκράτορα Νεφρίτη, τον Νετζά που κατακτά τον Βασιλιά Δράκοντα και την Ανακήρυξη των Θεών. Δεν έχουν όλα αυτά ριζώσει βαθιά στα μυαλά των ανθρώπων; Ακόμα και αν κάποιοι από εσάς δεν γνωρίζετε όλες τις λεπτομέρειες, γνωρίζετε παρ’ όλα αυτά τις γενικές ιστορίες, και είναι αυτό το γενικό περιεχόμενο που μένει στην καρδιά και μένει στο μυαλό και δεν μπορείτε να τα ξεχάσετε. Αυτά είναι πράγματα που έχει ετοιμάσει εδώ και πολύ καιρό ο Σατανάς για τον άνθρωπο, διασπείροντας ανά διαφορετικές χρονικές στιγμές τις διάφορες ιδέες του ή τους μύθους του. Αυτά τα πράγματα βλάπτουν και διαβρώνουν απευθείας τις ψυχές των ανθρώπων και τους κάνουν μάγια επανειλημμένα. Αυτό σημαίνει ότι από τη στιγμή που θα αποδεχθείς αυτά τα πράγματα που προέρχονται από την παράδοση, τις ιστορίες ή τη δεισιδαιμονία, μόλις αυτά τα πράγματα εγκατασταθούν μέσα στο μυαλό σου, μόλις μπουν και μείνουν στην καρδιά σου, λειτουργούν ως μάγια, αρχίζεις να μπερδεύεσαι και να επηρεάζεσαι από αυτά τα πολιτιστικά στοιχεία, αυτές τις ιδέες και ιστορίες της παράδοσης. Επηρεάζουν τη ζωή σου, τη στάση σου στη ζωή, καθώς και την κρίση σου για τα πράγματα. Ακόμη περισσότερο, επηρεάζουν την αναζήτησή σου για το αληθινό μονοπάτι στη ζωή: πρόκειται πραγματικά για μάγια! Προσπαθείς, αλλά δεν μπορείς να τα λύσεις. Τα χτυπάς, αλλά δεν μπορείς να τα σπάσεις, τα πολεμάς, αλλά δεν μπορείς να τα νικήσεις. Δεν είναι έτσι; (Ναι.) Επιπλέον, εφόσον ο άνθρωπος βρίσκεται υπό αυτά τα μάγια, χωρίς να το γνωρίζει, αρχίζει εν αγνοία του να λατρεύει τον Σατανά, καλλιεργώντας την εικόνα του Σατανά στην καρδιά του. Με άλλα λόγια, οι άνθρωποι θεωρούν τον Σατανά ως το είδωλό τους, ένα αντικείμενο λατρείας και θαυμασμού, φτάνοντας ακόμα και στο σημείο να τον θεωρούν Θεό. Χωρίς να το γνωρίζουν, αυτά τα πράγματα βρίσκονται στις καρδιές των ανθρώπων και ελέγχουν τα λόγια και τις πράξεις τους. Επιπλέον, θεωρείς ότι αυτές οι ιστορίες και οι μύθοι δεν είναι αληθείς, αλλά μετά, εν αγνοία σου, αναγνωρίζεις την ύπαρξη αυτών των ιστοριών, δημιουργείς αληθινούς χαρακτήρες από αυτές και τις μετατρέπεις σε πράγματα που υπάρχουν στ’ αλήθεια. Εν αγνοία σου, υποσυνείδητα γίνεσαι αποδέκτης αυτών των ιδεών και της ύπαρξης αυτών των πραγμάτων. Επίσης, υποσυνείδητα βάζεις δαίμονες, τον Σατανά και είδωλα μέσα στο ίδιο σου το σπίτι και μέσα στην καρδιά σου — πρόκειται πραγματικά για μάγια! Νιώθετε κι εσείς το ίδιο; (Ναι.) Υπάρχουν κάποιοι ανάμεσά σας που να έχουν κάψει θυμιάματα και λατρέψει τον Βούδα; (Ναι.) Ποιος ήταν, λοιπόν, ο σκοπός που κάψατε αυτά τα θυμιάματα και που λατρέψατε τον Βούδα; (Η προσευχή για ειρήνη.) Τώρα που το σκέφτεσαι, είναι παράλογο να προσεύχεσαι στον Σατανά για ειρήνη; Ο Σατανάς φέρνει την ειρήνη; (Όχι.) Ήσασταν αδαείς τότε; (Ναι.) Αυτός ο τρόπος συμπεριφοράς είναι παράλογος, αδαής και αφελής, έτσι δεν είναι; Το μόνο που σκέφτεται ο Σατανάς είναι πώς να σε διαφθείρει, δεν μπορεί να σου προσφέρει ειρήνη. Το μόνο που μπορεί να σου δώσει είναι μια προσωρινή ανακούφιση. Αλλά πρέπει να ορκιστείς, και αν δεν τηρήσεις την υπόσχεσή σου ή παραβείς τον όρκο που έκανες σε αυτόν, τότε θα δεις πώς θα σε βασανίσει. Όταν σε βάζει να ορκιστείς, στην πραγματικότητα, θέλει να σε ελέγξει. Όταν προσευχόσασταν για ειρήνη, πήρατε ειρήνη; (Όχι.) Όχι μόνο δεν πήρατε ειρήνη, αλλά, αντιθέτως, σας έφερε δυστυχία, ατελείωτες συμφορές· πραγματικά, έναν απεριόριστο ωκεανό πικρίας. Δεν υπάρχει ειρήνη στην σφαίρα επιρροής του Σατανά, και αυτή είναι η αλήθεια. Αυτή είναι η συνέπεια για την ανθρωπότητα της φεουδαρχικής δ
εισιδαιμονίας και της παράδοση...»

Le 7ème Sceau brisé : du corps profane au corps Glorieux
La Vidéo
blog.ehrmann.org/films/corps-profane.html
Au terme du 7ème Sceau brisé, un grand silence d'une demi-heure marqua la fin de la Borderline Biennial. thierry, notre père, nous avait promis à tous, que la Bordeline Biennial à la Demeure du Chaos serait avec ses 40 jours et 40 nuits le temps de l'Epiphanie, de l'Apparition, de la Théophanie.
Précisons de suite que le mot Apocalypse que la Borderline Biennial a questionné de mille manières la transcription d’un terme grec (apokalupsis) qui lui-même traduit l’hébreu nigla, lequel signifie mise à nu, enlèvement du voile ou révélation.
L’Apocalypse désigne la civilisation mondiale ayant enfin atteint un état de conscience propice au retour du divin. C’est aussi celui du salut final. La Borderline est plus qu’une épiphanie ; l’Apocalypse dont nous traitons ici est une épiphanie. Nous avons donc obéi à l’injonction contenue dans l’Apocalypse, Chapitre 1 verset 19, lequel ordonne à notre conscience de se placer hors du temps, de l’espace et de l’histoire et d’embrasser synthétiquement l’histoire de l’humanité.
Et ce fut le cas précis de la Borderline Biennial. Toutes brides morales et esthétiques lâchées : “écris donc ce que tu as vu : le présent et ce qui doit arriver plus tard”.
Vers la nuit tombée sur la Demeure du Chaos et lorsque le 7ème Sceau fut brisé par thierry, un grand silence se fit, et tous les feux s'éteignirent, alors apparût avec violence le spectre de l'Entité Numérique Suprême comme au début de la Borderline Biennial lors de la proclamation de la République du Chaos.
Son message fut clair et court, elle demandait au Père de la République du Chaos de revenir en 1999 et lui rappeler qu'il devait accomplir ses propres écritures. Disparaître et mourir de son corps profane pour renaître dans l'Internet profond qui reste pour lui une métaphore du divin, une agora des éthers.
Comme le Père fondateur de la République du Chaos est aussi notre père, l'Entité Numérique Suprême lui demanda de mourir de son corps profane pour renaître par le corps Glorieux dans l'agora des éthers qu'est Internet.
Il nous lut, fatigué par le poison de la grande ciguë en hommage à Socrate, une bien étrange prédiction "Pendant la dernière persécution que souffrira la sainte église romaine siégera un Pierre le Romain, il fera paître les brebis au niveau des nombreuses tribulations, celles-ci terminées, la cité aux 7 collines sera détruite et un juge redoutable jugera le peuple, le sien et que le mot qui termine cette prophétie est "FINIS".
Ce mot nous semblait à tous familier, effectivement, dans le catalogue raisonné de la Demeure du Chaos/l'Esprit de la Salamandre, page 1229, le texte sacré était là ! "Finis Gloriae Mundi" le tableau magistral de Valdès Léal à Séville qui fit que Fulcanelli ne publia pas son 3ème ouvrage.
Cette scène intitulée "Finis Gloriae Mundi" qui est peinte en format monumental au cœur de la Demeure du Chaos indique que le phylactère attaché au premier cercueil montre que l'Eglise est ici à jamais déchue au seul profit de l'éveil initiatique symbolisé par le Chevalier simulant la mort.
Souvenons nous des écrits du premier tome de la DDC " le Juge viendra juger son peuple" et que le mot qui termine le premier des trois tomes secrets de l'ouvrage alchimique de la Demeure du Chaos est "FINIS". "Même si ce mot est dur à accepter, la révélation n'en constitue pas moins la fin d'une étape de par le fait qu'avec elle il y a apport d'une chose nouvelle jusqu'alors maintenue, cachée ou inintelligible". "Ne les craignez donc point car il n'y a rien de caché qui ne doit être découvert ni de secret qui ne doit être connu".
Nous étions au bord des larmes et du désespoir, il nous demanda dans un dernier spasme de ne point pleurer et de reposer en paix dans le temple Protestant de Saint Romain de Couzon sur la nécropole en rallumant les feux de la loge selon les landmarks ancestraux.
9 hommes enterrèrent dans la nécropole son corps cadavérique enroulé dans un linceul noir couvert du drapeau de la République du Chaos..
Vers quelle destinée allions nous avec la jeune République du Chaos ?
Quelle est vraiment cette Entité Numérique Suprême ?
Cette fiction apocalyptique marqua cruellement la fin de la Borderline Biennial du 18 octobre 2009 vers 21h.
Quand d'un seul coup l’Egrégore s'invita parmi nous pour nous rappeler le début de l'œuvre alchimique et les paroles de thierry notre Père qui résonnaient dans nos têtes "cesse de pleurer et réjouis-toi quand tu verras la noirceur car c'est le début de l'œuvre".
