Telephone line, give me some time, I'm living in twilight.

The secrets of the mind convene splendidly,

Though the mind is meek.

To be aware inwardly

of brain and beauty

Is dark too recognizable.

Thought looking out on thought

Makes one an eye:

Which it shall be, both decide.

One is with the mind alone,

The other is with other thoughts gone

To be seen from afar and not known.

 

When openly these inmost sights

Flash and speak fully,

Each head at home shakes hopelessly

Of being never ready to see self

And sees a universe too soon.

The immense surmise swims round and round

And heads grow wise

With their own bigness beatified

In cosmos, and the idiot size

Of skulls spells Nature on the ground,

While ears listening the wrong way report

Echoes first and hear words before sounds

Because the mind, being quiet, seems late.

By ears words are copied into books,

By letters minds are taught self-ignorance.

From mouths spring forth vocabularies

To the assemblage of strange objects

Grown foreign to the faithful countryside

Of one king, poverty,

Of one line, humbleness.

Unavowed and false horizons claim pride

For spaces in the head

The native head sees outside.

The flood of wonder rushing from the eyes

Returns lesson by lesson.

The mind, shrunken of time,

Overflows too soon.

The complete vision is the same

As when the world-wideness began

Worlds to describe

The excessiveness of man.

 

But man's right portion rejects

The surplus in the whole.

This much, made secret first,

Now makes

The knowable, which was

Thought's previous flesh,

And gives instruction of substance to its intelligence

As far as flesh itself,

As bodies upon themselves to where

Understanding is the head

And the identity of breath and breathing are established

And the voice opening to cry: I know,

Closes around the entire declaration

With this evidence of immortality—

The total silence to say:

I am dead.

 

For death is all ugly, all lovely,

Forbids mysteries to make

Science of splendor, or any separate disclosing

Of beauty to the mind out of body's book

That page by page flutters a world in fragments,

Permits no scribbling in of more

Where spaces are,

Only to look.

 

Body as Body lies more than still.

The rest seems nothing and nothing is

If nothing need be.

But if need be,

Thought not divided anyway

Answers itself, thinking

All open and everything.

Dead is the mind that parted each head.

But now the secrets of the mind convene

Without pride, without pain

To any onlookers.

What they ordain alone

Cannot be known

The ordinary way of eyes and ears

But only prophesied

If an unnatural mind, refusing to divide,

Dies immediately

Of too plain beauty

Foreseen within too suddenly,

And lips break open of astonishment

Upon the living mouth and rehearse

Death, that seems a simple verse

And, of all ways to know,

Dead or alive, easiest.

Het Red Star Line Museum is opgebouwd uit verhalen van mensen die met de schepen van de rederij naar Amerika of Canada zijn gereisd. Centraal staan zes getuigen, onder wie Albert Einstein en Irving Berlin. De hoofdtentoonstelling voert de bezoeker langs de verscheidene reisetappes vanaf het reisbureau in Warschau tot het nieuwe leven in de Verenigde Staten. Het doel is om een indruk te geven van de zware tocht die een Europese landverhuizer moest afleggen om een betere toekomst tegemoet te kunnen gaan. Het laatste deel van de tentoonstelling verbindt het verleden met het heden om aan te tonen dat migratie een universeel en tijdloos gegeven is Wikipedia

En 1872 surgió en Oporto el servicio de tranvías americanos que eran empujados por mulas , destinados al transporte de personas y mercancías.

La primera compañía en explotar el servicio fue la "Companhia Carril de Ferro Americano do Porto" , surgiendo mas tarde la "Carris de Ferro de Porto". En 1893 ambas empresas se unieron prevaleciendo la "Carris de Ferro de Porto".

En 1894 comienza la electrificación de la linea y el 12 de Septiembre de 1895 comienzan a funcionar los primeros tranvías eléctricos en Oporto. Los primeros tranvías eléctricos pesaban unas 6 toneladas y transportaban unos 30 pasajeros.

Hasta 1912 las lineas se designaban por sus nombres , la "linea da Marginal" (linea 1) era la mas emblemática.

En 1878 las cámara municipal de Oporto , autoriza a operar de Oporto a Matosinhos y a utilizar maquinas de vapor para tirar de los vehículos. Al ser mas potentes que la tracción animal , podian tirrar de varios vagones de tranvía americano.

Entre 1900 y 1940 con el crecimiento de Oporto , nacen nuevas lineas de tranvía como la del centro y la Avenida de los Aliados. El tranvia ya es el transporte de la clase obrera en Oporto.

Los activos de la "Carris de Ferro de Porto" crecen , comprandose nuevos tranvías y modernizando los existentes.

Los tranvías se alimentaban de electricidad de centrales térmicas construidas para ello. La primera central fue la del rio Duero en las Pedreiras de Arrabida , construyéndose mas tarde la de Massarelos que sustituyó a la de Arrabida.

En 1946 se acaba la concesión y pasa a explotar el servicio la SCTP ("Servicio de transportes colectivos de Porto").

Crecen los problemas para cumplir los horarios por el aumento siginificativo del tráfico , nacen los "Pipis" que son tranvias mas modernos y rápidos con los que se intenta solucionar el problema.

Debido al crecimiento del uso automóvil que es mas rápido y cómodo , el tranvía entra en crisis. Se moderniza la flota y en 1959 comienza a utilizarse el trolley bus , mas barato y menos contaminante , para dar servicio a los alrrededores de Oporto.

En los 60 hay una importante remodelación y se suprimen 65 kilometros de linea.

En 1974 funcionan en Oporto 489 tranvías y 101 trolley bus.

En la actualidad el tranvía en Oporto ha perdido su papel como medio de transporte público , quedado relegado a atracción turística . Apenas funcionan media docena de tranvías y cuatro lineas.

CLUB HISTORY

Moseley was founded in 1873 and celebrated its 125th anniversary in 1998. The team adopted its signature red and black colours in 1874.

 

Moseley played its home matches at The Reddings, in Birmingham, England, from 1880 through the end of the 1999-2000 season. With the start of the 2000-2001 season, Moseley moved to a temporary home at Bournbrook on the University of Birmingham campus. In 2005 the Club moved to its permanent home at Billesley Common.

 

Moseley is a member of the English Championship, formerly National Division One, proudly among the top 24 clubs in England. It is owned by a consortium of members and supporters who successfully gained RFU approval to run the club in August 2002.
