La Revolución de Mayo fue una serie de acontecimientos revolucionarios ocurridos en mayo de 1810 en la ciudad de Buenos Aires, capital del Virreinato del Río de la Plata, dependiente del rey de España, y que tuvieron como consecuencia la destitución del virrey Baltasar Hidalgo de Cisneros y su reemplazo por la Primera Junta de gobierno.
Los eventos de la Revolución de Mayo sucedieron durante el transcurso de la llamada Semana de Mayo, entre el 18 de mayo, fecha de la confirmación oficial de la caída de la Junta Suprema Central, y el 25 de mayo, fecha de asunción de la Primera Junta.
La Revolución de Mayo inició el proceso de surgimiento del Estado Argentino sin proclamación de la independencia formal, ya que la Primera Junta no reconocía la autoridad del Consejo de Regencia de España e Indias, pero aún gobernaba nominalmente en nombre del rey de España Fernando VII, quien había sido depuesto por las Abdicaciones de Bayona y su lugar ocupado por el francés José Bonaparte.
Juráis a Dios nuestro Señor y a estos Santos Evangelios reconocer la Junta Provisional Gubernativa de las provincia del Río de La Plata a nombre del Sr. D. Fernando Séptimo, y para guarda de sus augustos derechos, obedecer sus órdenes y decretos, y no atentar directa ni indirectamente contra su autoridad, propendiendo pública y privadamente a sus seguridad y respeto.
Todos juraron; y todos morirán antes que quebranten la sagrada obligación que se han impuesto. (Gaceta de Buenos Aires (1810-1821), 1910, p. 13)
This little lovely is one of four Carolina wrens that have been gifted my yard as their territory by their parents. As usual, the parents raised several broods in the yard this year. Once the last brood was old enough to be independent, the parents moved on.
These little wrens are more friendly than their parents were, they come very close to me when I am in the yard and they allow me to approach them as well. If it ends up that there are two pair, perhaps both pair will nest in the yard. That has happened before. They chose different sides of the house of course, still it was nice to have so many year-round and all of the extra activity during nesting season.
Enjoy your day and happy snapping.
Wanderlust.

En la playa de Levante, del municipio tarraconense de Salou, y junto al Puerto Deportivo, se pueden observar varios barcos de pesca conservados en perfectas condiciones, como una especie de reconocimiento a la labor de los pescadores, con independencia de que a unos metros, en el dique del puerto, se encuentra un Monumento al Pescador

The former Valley Independent building on 6th Street was also demolished last month. The roof started collapsing back in September. A portion of the exterior of this building served as a set piece for the TV series American Rust recently: www.flickr.com/photos/98378426@N02/51337141216/
This tiny duckling was the only offspring remaining to the pair of Pink-eared Ducks. Despite its youth, it displayed remarkable independence, swimming energetically several meters ahead of its parents, who struggled to keep up.

The picture was taken a couple of years ago, just before demolition of this building which had housed the business for 75 years. It was replaced by the partially-finished building in green next door.
It is strange that the owners chose to remain in a rundown neighborhood. However, it is hard to question a business with such longevity.

My high school best friend and I used to listen to this song over and over and over again.
www.youtube.com/watch?v=c7dyXfHcYw8&feature=related
somewhere between then and now I lost myself and found myself again.
This past week I've been loading songs onto my ipod and I ran across the CD that had this song on it. It's a good thing I've been in my car alone a lot this past week or there would be some severely annoyed people - "do we have to hear that song AGAIN?!"
it's Pretty Cool On Black
and yes, I cut my head off again. I could make this face and retake if you're going to complain about it.

From reckless corporate consolidation of the media industry, the Presidential persecution of whistle blowers to the targeting of independent wartime journalists by our military, our system has completely failed us. The continuous stream of sensationalism feeds our addiction to drama, hyperstimulating the senses with fear and novelty. The war drums beat to the tune of our racing hearts – which rage with fury over manipulated messages driven by those in power.
Personally, my advise would be to shut off the TVs – which drive us away from the essence of a meaningful existence. Ignore all mainstream messages – they are rooted in profit. Focus our thoughts and hearts to kindness, forgiveness and tolerance. The Fourth Estate will burn on its own.

One of the primary new techniques (for me) used in this build was the implementation of Lego nets (71155) for sculpting. By backing each net with smaller plates – set apart by 1 stud – and then using 1x1 round plate pips on the front side (sandwiching the net in between), I had a flexible scrim which I could then build off of. This allowed for the undulating forms in the explosion area.

Colonial Williamsburg is the historic district of the independent city of Williamsburg, Virginia. It consists of many of the buildings that, from 1699 to 1780, formed colonial Virginia's capital. The capital straddled the boundary of two of the original shires of Virginia, James City Shire (now James City County), and Charles River Shire (now York County). For most of the 18th century, Williamsburg was the center of government, education and culture in the Colony of Virginia.
Colonial Williamsburg is meant to be an interpretation of a Colonial American city, with exhibits including dozens of authentic or accurately-recreated colonial houses and relating to American Revolutionary War history. Prominent buildings in Colonial Williamsburg include the Raleigh Tavern, the Capitol, The Governor's Palace, and Bruton Parish Church. However, rather than simply an effort to preserve antiquity, the combination of extensive restoration and thoughtful recreation of the entire colonial town facilitates envisioning the atmosphere and understanding the ideals of 18th century American revolutionary leaders. It was here that Thomas Jefferson, Patrick Henry, James Monroe, James Madison, George Wythe, Peyton Randolph, and dozens more helped mold democracy in the Commonwealth of Virginia and the United States.
The Historic Area is located just east of the College of William and Mary, founded at Middle Plantation in 1693, just prior to the establishment of the town as capital of Virginia and its renaming. The university's historic Wren Building stands at the west end of Duke of Gloucester Street.
Colonial Williamsburg is a major source of tourism to Williamsburg, as well as a touchstone for many world leaders and heads of state, including U.S. Presidents. The United States hosted the first World Economic Conference at Colonial Williamsburg in 1983. It is the centerpiece of the surrounding Historic Triangle of Virginia area, which has become a popular tourist destination for visitors domestic and foreign. The other two points of the Historic Triangle are Jamestown and Yorktown.

Early in the 20th century, the restoration and recreation of Colonial Williamsburg, one of the largest historic restorations ever undertaken, was championed by the Reverend Dr. W.A.R. Goodwin and the patriarch of the Rockefeller family, John D. Rockefeller, Jr., along with the active participation of his wife, Abby Aldrich Rockefeller, who wanted to celebrate the patriots and the early history of the United States.
Many of the missing Colonial structures were reconstructed on their original sites during the 1930s. Other structures were restored to the best estimates of how they would have looked during the eighteenth century, with all traces of later buildings and improvements removed. Dependency structures and animals help complete the ambiance. Most buildings are open for tourists to look through, with the exception of several buildings that serve as residences for Colonial Williamsburg employees.
Notable structures include the large Capitol and the Governor's Palace, each carefully recreated and landscaped as closely as possible to original 18th century specifications, as well as Bruton Parish Church and the Raleigh Tavern.
The major goal of the Restoration was not to merely preserve or recreate the physical environment of the colonial period, but to facilitate education about the origins of the idea of America, which was conceived during many decades before the American Revolution.
In this environment, Colonial Williamsburg strives to tell the story of how diverse peoples, having different and sometimes conflicting ambitions, evolved into a society that valued liberty and equality.
